Chapter 40 Reunion 1
◎Became a "dog" after being plotted against◎
"Girl, are you planning to go dressed like this?"
When Mr. Jiang saw Yan Yue, dressed in a dashing outfit and burning incense for her, he couldn't help but ask.
Yan Yue replied: "I'm going hunting. I haven't touched a bow for a long time. I'm almost forgetting how it feels!"
Mr. Jiang praised: "Wow, I didn't know that the girl could hunt!"
Yan Yue smiled shyly: "If I can hunt a pheasant or a hare today, I'll come back and make a snack for everyone!"
God knows, she is really anxious to establish an image for herself. The day before yesterday, he arrogantly dragged Qi Zhaoyang to provoke the former shopkeeper of Nanqing, but he was beaten out before he could finish his words. He was completely embarrassed!
Fortunately, Qi Zhaoyang left in a hurry because of something, otherwise if Chu Zhi knew about it, with her sieve-like mouth, she would definitely spread the news so much that everyone in the courtyard and even the guests in the teahouse would laugh at her!
She had to establish an upright and noble image before Qi Zhaoyang came next time. In this way, even if Qi Zhaoyang mentioned it in the future, as long as she firmly denied it, no one in the courtyard would believe it. How could such a great and upright boss have such a smug face?
Thinking that he had successfully hunted rabbits and voles on his first day of learning hunting, Yan Yue was very confident that he would have a good harvest today! She carried a backpack, hummed a song, stepped on the thin snow, and plunged into the woods.

The lead-gray sky pressed down heavily and connected with the river surface. Looking around, there was a vast expanse of desolation all around. The north wind was like a knife, rushing forward with moisture, mercilessly cutting across the cheeks, as if to take away the body temperature.
A man in white clothes and white hair stood at the bow. If it weren't for his snow-white hair dancing in the wind, he would have been mistaken for a jade sculpture of an immortal.
"Your Majesty, the clan is in such a mess, do you still have the heart to think about that girl?"
Bai Chen glanced back at Bai Lubao, raised his lips and said, "Don't you think she's interesting? It took me so long to find a little girl like her. Of course I have to ask her in person, how dare she do that?"
Bai Lubao was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot. "That white socks guy and his herd of bison have been confronting the fat rhino for three days, and it looks like a fight is about to break out! The mandrill sent me here to tell you to go back and take charge of the situation! But you want to drag me into this mess!"
Bai Chen comforted him, "White Socks is a stupid bull with a bad temper. The fat rhino is just stupid in body shape but not in brain. He won't be so reckless. With the mandrill, the old baboon and the slutty fox here, there won't be any trouble! No matter what, one day is not a big deal! Come on, let's go have a drink!"
He embraced Bai Lubao and went into the cabin, saying, "After I deal with that little girl, I will go back with you immediately!"
The subordinates in the cabin had already warmed up the wine, and the two of them feasted on a large plate of grilled fish and a grilled raccoon.
Bai Chen was wondering why the wine was so strong today? Even though the raccoon soup was a bit salty, he might have drunk it a little too hastily. He couldn't get dizzy so quickly, right?
His eyebrows twitched.
Over the years, he fought and risked his life to ascend to the throne of the Demon King, relying on his natural sharpness and alertness. The reason why he dared to relax today was because everyone on the ship was Bai Lu Bao’s confidant.
Did the Egret Leopard rebel?
In just a moment, Bai Chen overturned this idea.
Because this big stupid eagle was so drunk that it returned to its original form, the young eagle it was when it was little!
If there was a traitor around Bai Lubao, the two of them would be in danger! He is poisoned now and cannot alert the enemy. Even if he wants to investigate for the traitor, he has to wait until the poison is removed!
Bai Chen felt dizzy. He stuffed the little eagle into his arms, opened the cabin window, and prepared to fly him to the shore.
Unexpectedly, there was someone outside the window, and Bai Chen, who was about to lean out, bumped face to face!
The man might have felt guilty, so he just pulled out his knife and slashed at him with a roar!
Bai Chen leaned backwards, but the poison slowed his movements and he barely dodged the blade. He thought he couldn't fight back, so he suddenly jumped back, broke open the window of the other cabin, and flew straight to the distant shore!
Behind him, he heard voices like "Your Majesty", "Shoot" and sporadic screams. It was obvious that the traitors and people who were unaware of the situation were fighting. But Bai Chen didn't care too much and could only rush to the shore.
But the arrows were faster than him, coming one after another!
Bai Chen dodged by flying up and down, but the arrows were too dense and his head was dizzy, so he was hit in the thigh by one of the arrows and fell straight into the river!
The river was wide and he only made a small splash of water, which was then smoothed out by the waves raised by the cold winter wind.
The people on the boat hurriedly turned the boat around and chased after it, but the river was surging, so how could they find any trace of it?

In the woods, Yan Yue jumped down from a crooked tree in frustration, and sighed to the sky: "Oh my God! Are you kidding me? For a whole day! For a whole day! Can you just let me see some living creature? I didn't even see a mouse!"
As soon as she finished howling, she heard some faint sounds.
It sounded like a small animal crushing dead branches!
Yan Yue's face lit up with joy, and he quickly bowed to the heavens: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry! The heavens really have eyes!"
She climbed up the crooked tree again quietly and saw something from afar...but she couldn't tell what it was. It seems to be white, but something seems to be wrong? After all, it is a small animal, about the size of a rabbit, enough to stew in a pot!
She clamped her legs against the tree and took aim.
With a "whoosh", as the arrow flew away, the little thing fell to the ground with a thud!
“Hit!”
Yan Yue clenched her fists in excitement and was so excited that she almost fell off the tree!
She ran over happily, muttering, "I said my archery skills are fine, but I haven't seen any living creatures all day! Otherwise, I would have hit the target every time!"
However, when she got closer, she was a little dumbfounded.
The arrow she shot stuck a foot behind the little animal! But the little animal's legs were indeed injured, and one of its legs was almost stained red with blood.
"Wow, I can even shoot through my prey?"
And this "prey" really broke her heart.
It was a white puppy.
Ever since she raised Dahei, Yan Yue's attitude towards all dogs has changed.
Some dogs are extremely smart and understand human nature; some are silly; some are naughty and mischievous, but all of them protect their families, trust and rely on their families.
For example, Dahei is a very sensible and well-behaved dog. Dahei would only pick up the food she ate if it fell on the ground. He would never scratch the table or snatch food from the table or from other people's hands.
The puppy in front of me was wet all over, with snow and dust on its fur, looking particularly miserable in this cold winter. It was holding a small bird in its mouth that it had caught from somewhere, and one of its hind legs was bleeding from being injured by it. It was so miserable that it couldn't be more miserable.
Yan Yue's heart softened all of a sudden. Feeling extremely guilty, she took out a handkerchief and quickly wrapped its hind legs. He took off his cloak again, wrapped up the puppy, which had almost no body temperature, and put it into the backpack together with the small birds he had caught.
While hurriedly returning to the city, Yan Yue unexpectedly met a hunter with a deer on his shoulder.
The deer was almost as tall as a man, which really made Yan Yue jealous. He chased the hunter and said, "Brother, you are really amazing! I haven't seen a living thing all day!"
The hunter saw that she was a girl and her words and actions showed that she was not from the same industry, so he generously pointed to a place and told her to try her luck there next time.
The two of them returned to the city together, but suddenly two uninvited guests showed up.
The two men had big swords on their waists, and when they saw Yan Yue and the hunter, they drew their swords the first time.
Yan Yue was so frightened that she jumped up, waking up Bai Chen who was wrapped in a cloak in the backpack. He tried to shake his head but could not muster any strength and had trouble casting spells. He sighed in his heart: God is going to kill me!
The hunter reacted very quickly. When he saw the other party drawing his sword, he immediately took out his bow and arrow and pointed it at the other party.
When Yan Yue saw the hunter's actions, she remembered that she was also carrying arrows! She hurriedly put the arrow on and asked the other party fiercely: "What are you doing? Are you trying to steal the prey? The forest is so big, everyone relies on their own ability to make a living, how can robbing people be considered a code of conduct? Do you have any shame?"
A series of questions that did not allow for interruption were so familiar that Bai Chen sniffed the cloak suspiciously. It was indeed her scent!
The two men looked at Yan Yue and the hunter suspiciously, and stretched their heads to look behind them.
Yan Yue's eyes rolled, and he pointed his thumb at the hunter beside him and said, "I'm not afraid to tell you! My elder brother's archery skills are so good that he can hit the target every time! In this hilltop, my elder brother doesn't need to shoot a second arrow to hit anything he wants! Besides, all of us in my family are archers, and they are here to welcome us!"
She raised her eyebrows and warned, "If you're smart, don't try to target our deer! Otherwise, our archers will come and shoot you into hedgehogs!"
A family?
Bai Chen frowned. Did she run back home? What a loser!
The two looked at each other and sneered: "Who cares about your deer?"
Yan Yuexin was startled, took a step back and said, "You can't even kidnap someone! Although I'm young and beautiful, I've already been betrothed to someone else! I'm warning you, don't think of hitting on me, I'm not someone you can afford to offend!"
"Just shut up!"
The man with the knife interrupted her impatiently and asked directly: "Have you seen a man? He is wearing white clothes and has white hair. He is injured and probably has difficulty moving."
Yan Yue looked at the hunter, who shook his head: "I haven't seen it, have you?"
Yan Yue said honestly: "I came here to hunt deer, but I didn't see a single living thing in the forest all day!"
She asked the two people with great concern: "So you are looking for the elderly in your family! Why did you say so earlier? Why would you use knives and guns to look for someone? It would cause so much misunderstanding! How old is the old man? You are too careless. The old man was injured, how could he be lost! It's so cold in this weather, if..."
“Get out, get out!” The man waved his knife to chase them away: “Hurry up and leave! Don’t get in the way!”
Yan Yue said unhappily: "You really don't know how to talk! I was going to help you look for it, after all, there is strength in numbers! But look at you, you don't even have the attitude to ask for help..."
"Hey, I have such a bad temper!" The man raised the knife that he had just put down again.
"Let's go! Let's go now!"
The hunter saw that the other party was not a good person, so he grabbed Yan Yue and ran away. However, he was carrying the deer and pulling Yan Yue, so he couldn't run far before he could no longer run. However, he didn't stop, he just sprinted.
Fortunately, the hunter could no longer run, otherwise Yan Yue would have vomited the white dust in his backpack!
Then the hunter asked her, "Sister, are you stupid? They are carrying big knives to look for someone. Could they be looking for an elderly person who is missing from their own family?"
Yan Yue thought about it and asked again, "Are they seeking revenge? But how could an old man with white hair offend them? They actually chased me all the way here and didn't let me go!"
“Who knows?”
The hunter said with lingering fear: "I was scared to death. You are so brave, little girl. What if they are murderers and robbers? You are still trying to reason with them and intimidate them! Do you know how scared I was just now?"
Yan Yue felt a little scared when she heard him say that: "If they are really bandits, we have to report to the police quickly!"
The hunter said helplessly: "We have to go back to the city first!"
Yan Yue chuckled and said, "Brother, if you go to report to the police, it will be inconvenient to carry the deer on your back, right? Why don't you sell the deer to me so you can speed up your journey!"
Orion:? ? ?
Yan Yue quickly added: "Don't worry, there will be no shortage of silver! I am just worried about the old man, and I want the officials to rescue him quickly. Brother, saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda!"
Hunter: "...Then, OK!"
