"Oh... By the way, where is your sister? Why have I never heard you mention it?"
Hearing her mention her sister, Lin Feng visibly trembled, lowered his head and remained silent.
"What's wrong?"
Mo Lanyue also sat down side by side with him in front of the carriage. Lin Feng's face told a story at first glance. Mo Lanyue was not in a hurry to rush him. She kept looking at him until he stopped lowering his head. Lin Feng looked at him again.
When he looked at her, he also started to talk.
"Actually...it's nothing. We were just children without parents to take care of us. When you saved us, the official gave us some money to temporarily fill our stomachs, but at that time we couldn't make any money at all, so we were left with nothing.
When all the money was spent, we could only starve and eat leftovers. My sister... later she couldn't stand this kind of life. She wanted to work as a maid in other people's houses more than once, but I wouldn't let her.
Maybe she was lucky, but later she met a wealthy family who saw her cuteness and were willing to adopt her as a daughter, so my sister went with them."
He paused and tried his best to control his emotions, "Later, I was taken to Caiying. I was given food and shelter by others, and my master taught me martial arts. Of course I was very happy. I learned Kung Fu for several years.
, and then started to follow His Highness the Crown Prince."
"So all of you secret guards have been adopted and taught martial arts since you were ten years old, and then assigned to Liu Jueming to protect him?"
Nighthawk's approach was quite clever. From the time she was a baby, she would support her for several years. Even if it was just to repay her kindness, they would definitely fight with their lives, not to mention that she had given them a life without worries about food and clothing.
"At first I would ask people for news about my sister, but as time went by, maybe that family had moved away and I couldn't find out about them. But I believed that my sister was living a good life and maybe she was married now.
Already."
Lin Feng smiled at her, but her eyes were full of bitterness. She could see how much this Lin Feng cared about his sister, and he had no choice but to be separated from her. He must really want to see her again.
"Silly boy, don't be unhappy. If there is a chance in the future, I will help you get your sister back."
"Really or not?"
Lin Feng asked almost immediately. One can imagine how much he looks forward to seeing his sister again.
"With my ability, it shouldn't be a big problem to find someone in Zi Lei. However, the situation is so chaotic now. If I really want to find someone, I can only wait until the wind calms down."
"As long as I can see my sister again, it doesn't matter how long I wait."
After comforting Lin Feng for a few words, Mo Lanyue felt that the road was dusty and got into the carriage again, never wanting to get out again.
She had no time to appreciate the scenery on the road. She just wanted to appear in front of Gu Lieyang in the most energetic state, and didn't want him to feel sorry for her.
"Alas?"
The carriage suddenly stopped for no reason, and she only heard Lin Feng's curious whisper.
"Why did you stop?"
Feeling Lin Feng jump out of the carriage, she stuck her head out and saw a black and white striped tiger lying on the path in front of the carriage. Judging from its size, it should be considered a cub, but she didn't know why it was lying on the road.
In the middle, it just blocked their way forward.
Lin Feng tiptoed towards the little tiger. When he was still one step away from the little tiger, the little tiger suddenly turned over and jumped up. Lin Feng hurriedly took a few steps back to distance himself from the little tiger.
"It was actually a live tiger. I thought someone had beaten the tiger and not taken away the body."
Lin Feng patted his chest with lingering fear and muttered to himself.
It was the first time for her to encounter such a novelty, such as the tiger cub that emerged from nowhere. The first time she went to the hunting ground with him, she had a series of surprises. First, she passed through the strange bottom of the lake to another world, and then was suspected of being killed.
The killer hired by Gu Liege attacked him, and he and Gu Liege were tied to a tree together. It took a lot of effort to get out of the trap.
So that time in the hunting ground, she was almost filled with all kinds of accidents, but never really saw what they looked like when hunting, let alone saw any ferocious animals.
Now looking at the little tiger in front of her who didn't seem to be that threatening, she became playful for a moment and stopped Lin Feng from drawing the sword. She slowly approached the little tiger with wary eyes.
Looking at the little tiger up close, she found that it was shivering all over. Covered by its shiny fur, she couldn't tell from a distance, but when she got closer, it was obvious. Not only that, the look in its eyes
Being on guard is not like being dissatisfied because one's territory has been invaded, but rather like being at a loss when one is treading on unfamiliar territory.
She knelt down and quietly stared at the little tiger in front of her.
Lin Feng was sweating coldly as he watched the man and the tiger staring at each other face to face. Mo Lanyue had no defense at all. If the little tiger suddenly gave her a claw, she would definitely be seriously injured.
"Be careful."
He couldn't help but remind her aloud that if the little tiger suddenly got into trouble, he wouldn't be able to save her before she got hurt.
Mo Lanyue waved her hands indifferently, looking at the clear and bright eyes of the little tiger. She really wanted to convey her kindness to the little tiger, but she was still a beginner in how to communicate with animals, so she could only use her eyes as a matter of course.
Spreading her thoughts, she was not sure whether the little tiger could understand it or not.
"Ouch~~~~~"
The little tiger suddenly raised its head towards her and growled a few words.
Judging from the sound of its howling, it should not be hostile to her. Mo Lanyue stretched out her hand even more boldly, spreading it flatly to the feet of the little tiger, hanging in the air just inches above the ground.
"Little one, do you want to come with me?"
Lin Feng, who was standing beside her, was so shocked by her humane question. He stared blankly at Mo Lanyue's delusion of being good friends with Tiger. This scene was simply unbelievable.
But then, something even more incredible happened.
The little tiger didn't know whether he understood or not, but he raised a paw and gently placed it on Mo Lanyue's hand.
Although it was a tiger cub, it was still compared to an adult tiger. When the tiger paw was placed on Mo Lanyue's hand, she immediately felt that her hand was heavy, and she almost stepped on the ground with her whole hand.
After the hookup was successful, Mo Lanyue hugged the little tiger in front of her. Even if she made such a move, the little tiger had no intention of resisting and seemed to completely accept her.
Mo Lanyue took the little tiger into the carriage and ordered Lin Feng to continue on his way with a smile. For a moment, all her attention was occupied by this fluffy guy. Just looking at the little guy's shining round eyes, she was already
Starting to think of a name for it.
Lin Feng was driving the carriage, but what he was thinking about was another matter. He managed to get back a little tiger, but he didn't know if the little tiger had any parents. If his parents caught up with him and asked for a son, they would have to pay a lot of money.
It's a small problem that can be solved with a smile and a modesty.
"Gege, can I call you Gege from now on?"
Mo Lanyue grabbed the little tiger's paw and shook it gently. Seeing that it showed no dissatisfaction, its name was decided.
Before meeting Princess, she had never thought about raising anything as a pet. She always felt that she was being raised by others, so wouldn't it be funny to keep a pet? Besides, she didn't have nothing to do every day.
Those masters who spend their time in various ways every day, walking around with cats and flowers, her life is completely arranged by herself, and she has no time to take care of a weak animal.
But seeing this little tiger, her mentality changed instantly.
Although this little tiger's teeth have not fully grown yet and may still be in the stage of drinking milk, she can predict how majestic it will be when it grows up. It is easiest to tame it if it is adopted at this time.
How could she be willing to give up this great opportunity?
"Lin Feng, stop the car in a crowded place. I want to get some milk for Princess."
She doesn’t know what kind of milk can replace tiger milk. She has drank both cow’s and goat’s milk, but she doesn’t understand the taste of tiger milk.
She stroked Gege's head from time to time. The non-aggressive Gege was like a huge fat cat. When she felt comfortable being touched by her, she would squint her eyes like a cat and put on an expression of enjoyment.
She couldn't stop playing in the carriage alone. Lin Feng, who was driving the carriage, did not have her as a chat partner, making the trip even more boring.
When it was getting dark, Lin Feng found a place to stop the carriage. "The horses are too tired. We need to rest for a while and wait for them to regain their strength before continuing."
He pointed at Gege, who was lying at her feet, "I didn't expect you to have a good relationship with it. You can get along so well in half a day. People who don't know it would think you started taming it since you were a child."
"If you put it this way, aren't you and I also very destined? It only took us two days to get to know each other as well as anything."
Mo Lanyue couldn't hide the smile on her face. She no longer had to live in Liu Jueming's shadow and she finally knew how to smile.
It's a pity that she didn't encounter another village along the way. Her idea of getting some milk for Gege couldn't be realized. She pinched a piece of steamed bun that was already cold and handed it to Gege. Gege turned away ungratefully.
I have a slanted head and no interest at all.
"Tiger is a carnivore, so it will definitely not eat these steamed buns."
Lin Feng couldn't help laughing when he saw her being rejected.
Mo Lanyue rolled her eyes at him. Of course she knew that tigers eat meat, but now she didn't just have this steamed bun on hand.
"Gege, you are so picky about food, so I have to starve you first."
She bit into the remaining steamed buns and ate them with cold water.
The sky was getting darker and darker, so Lin Feng had to light a torch and put it on the front of the car, camping beside the wilderness trail. The torch could block other animals from approaching, but there was no way to hide his tracks.
"Lin Feng, did you hear anything?"
She vaguely seemed to hear the sound of horse hooves. The sounds were uneven and dense, as if many people were riding horses towards this direction.
"Someone is coming."
Lin Feng calmed down and listened, and heard the sound of horse hooves coming from far and near.
