"Ling'er, it stinks!" Nangong Lieye fainted when he reached the entrance of the cave, and Mo Wushuang also wrinkled his nose.
"This may be a cave for animals. Your Majesty, we can't be picky. They will be chasing you soon. You and Wushuang must hide while I lure them away." Hua Yueling frowned.
"No, Ling'er, don't go, I'll go!" Nangong Lieye said quickly, looking at Hua Yueling's bulging belly, he was almost frightened.
"You?" Hua Yue Ling couldn't believe his ability to 'confuse' the enemy in the snow. He shook his head and said, "No, I must lure them away. You protect Wushuang. I will be back soon."
After Yue Ling finished speaking, she walked out.
"Ling'er, be careful!" Nangong Lieye wanted to go with her, but he couldn't leave Mo Wushuang behind.
"Prince, please follow me quickly, I'll be fine by myself." Mo Wushuang also said worriedly.
At this time, Hua Yueling had already spread snow outside so that the hidden entrance of the cave could not be seen from the outside, and even the footprints were covered.
"No, Ling'er asked me to stay, so I will stay. Otherwise, if something happens to you, she won't forgive me. How is your foot?" Nangong Lieye put him down gently and turned to look.
It was dark inside, but it smelled very bad. "I'll go inside and take a look first."
Nangong Lieye covered his nose and walked in slowly. There was no snow inside, but only stones. Suddenly he stepped on something and made a crisp sound. Nangong Lieye was startled. When he lowered his head and stared, it turned out to be a broken bowl.
"Someone has been here!" Nangong Lieye said in surprise.
Mo Wushuang responded, leaned against the mountain wall and said, "What did you find?"
Nangong Lieye took out the fire box in his arms, because he did not dare to light a fire when he was at the entrance of the cave for fear of being discovered outside. He only dared to light a fire when he was inside.
When his vision became clearer, Nangong Lieye saw a rotting animal carcass in one corner. He was immediately disgusted. The stench was coming from here. Looking at the rest, he found a thick pile of hay with some neatly stacked hay.
There are old quilts and pots and jars around it. Sure enough, someone has lived there. It seems that they were hunters who went up to the mountains to hunt.
Nangong Lieye felt very lucky. He quickly took out the animal carcass and threw it far away from the entrance of the cave. He then filled a basin with snow to cover the smelly place, and used his coat to fan the ground to remove all the smell.
Get out.
After tidying it up, he found that it was quite good inside. He carried Mo Wushuang in and put it on the haystack, saying, "Wushuang, let's settle for a while. I'll boil some hot water and clean your wounds. Fortunately, there are tiles here."
Can."
"Thank you." Mo Wushuang didn't know what to say, so he could only say these two words, which he never wanted to say in his heart.
"You're welcome. Now we have to unite to survive. It's going to be dark soon. People will freeze to death in these snowy mountains. I'll go find some firewood to keep warm at night." Nangong Lieye has been busy putting snowflakes into the tiles.
In the jar, get some firewood left in the corner and light it to start melting the snow.
"I wonder how Ling'er is doing?" Mo Wushuang asked worriedly.
"We have to believe in Ling'er, she is the hero in my heart, she will be fine." Nangong Lieye comforted Mo Wushuang and himself.
"Yes, she said she would come back, and she will definitely come back." Mo Wushuang nodded, and he comforted himself.
Nangong Lieye lit the boiling water, and slowly poked his head out of the hole, looking out from among the dead trees covered with thick snow. He happened to see a group of people chasing after him, and he immediately became nervous.
"Everyone, hurry up. If the footsteps keep going here, Hua Yueling and the others will not be able to escape. Look! There are two people's footprints here! The third prince is carrying Mo Wushuang on his back, and Hua Yueling is following behind. Everyone, work harder, they will run.
It won’t be far!” Cang Long was encouraging morale.
Nangong Lieye was secretly surprised. Hua Yue Ling was clearly alone, so why did he still find two people's footprints?
How did he know that Hua Yueling was so meticulous that he would have noticed that if he was diverted by himself, his footprints would be suspected, and they might stop and search nearby. Then Nangong Lieye and Mo Wushuang would be in danger, so when she created the false
I guess running back and forth, I tied a wooden stick to one foot and dragged the snowflakes to make the footprints one big and one small. Each time I stepped on it twice with one foot, it became the footprints of two different people, stretching away.
Occasionally, they would stop at a certain place to make more footprints to confuse their judgment. Hua Yueling walked for half an hour. She didn't know how far she walked. After going around a few hills,
Suddenly she saw a frozen river, which made her very happy.
There were still mountains and trees on the other side of the frozen river. Hua Yueling deliberately poked through the ice with the Beauty Sword, and found that there was a fish underneath. She immediately poked at it with the Beauty Sword, and she actually got a big fish.
No one fished in the rivers in the mountains, so the fish were very fat. She thought she would have something to eat at night.
She looked up and saw that the sky was getting dark. She suddenly thought about it and ran towards the woods on the opposite side. She felt that the distance was almost there, so she started to leap up and go back in the direction she came from.
She heard someone in front of her halfway, and she immediately walked around, waiting for them to chase madly. She watched them go away, then curled her lips, walked back, wiped out all their footprints halfway, and created another one.
It's a fork in the road. Even if they turn back, they won't be on the same road, and Hua Yueling doesn't know what's on the other side.
A lot of dry branches had been piled up in the cave. Nangong Lieye lit a fire and the whole cave became warm. Mo Wushuang sat by the fire and looked at the purple skin on his feet that had returned to normal. Although
The wound was still there, but I kept using hot water to warm my feet, and I felt much better.
Nangong Lieye looked at the entrance of the cave from time to time, and said anxiously: "Why don't Ling'er come? Is something going to happen? It's getting dark today."
Mo Wushuang was also worried, but he still comforted Nangong Lieye and said, "Don't worry, Ling'er is very careful, and nothing will happen to him. He may have lured them away."
"Then will she get lost herself?" Nangong Lieye walked back and asked anxiously.
"How come, it's not snowing now?" Mo Wushuang asked.
"No." Nangong Lieye replied.
"There are footprints there if you don't leave. You can come back wherever you go. You won't get lost." Mo Wushuang looked at Nangong Lieye's anxious handsome face.
Nangong Lieye was stunned and said, "I'm so anxious and confused."
Suddenly, Mo Wushuang's stomach growled, causing Mo Wushuang's handsome face to turn red suspiciously.
"Are you hungry? I'll go out and see if there's anything I can catch. Those people shouldn't be around here now." Nangong Lieye walked out after saying that. In fact, he also thought about what to eat at night, but he was worried about Hua Yue.
Ling, so I wanted to wait for her to come before hunting.
"I can still bear it, don't go, wait until Ling'er comes back." Mo Wushuang was afraid that it would be dangerous for him to go out.
"I'll go out and take a look. I won't go far." Nangong Lieye tightened his coat and walked out of the cave. Afraid of leaving footprints, he erected a few wooden branches at the entrance of the cave to allow him to leap to the opposite branches.
Jumping to the top, looking towards the direction Hua Yueling left, he saw the messy footprints, looking forward to the appearance of that beautiful figure.
Disappointment and worry welled up in his dark eyes. He could only look around to see if there were any birds or animals, but it was such a cold day and it was almost dark, and the animals would not come out and walk around. This made him worry again if he could not find them.
Eat, you are not hungry tonight. The problem is that Ling'er still has a child. Thinking of the child, Nangong Lieye's dark eyes became moist. He is really useless as a father, letting his child suffer so much before he is born.
.
Just as Nangong Lieye was about to leap to another tree, he saw a figure coming from the corner of his eye.
After taking a closer look, he saw who it was if it wasn't Hua Yueling. He was immediately overjoyed, jumped down from the tree, and quickly went up to meet him.
"Ling'er!" Nangong Lieye called eagerly.
Hua Yueling at the other end immediately raised her head and shouted excitedly: "Your Majesty!"
The two ran towards each other and immediately hugged each other tightly.
"Ling'er, I'm worried about you, are you okay?" Nangong Lieye quickly checked her body.
"It's okay, look, I caught a big fish and came back!" Hua Yueling showed him the frozen dead fish on his back.
"Ling'er, you are so capable." Nangong Lieye really wanted to cry.
"Let's go, how is Wushuang?" Hua Yueling smiled and patted him. She ran so hard that her face turned red. She didn't feel cold at all, but she was worried about these two men in her heart, fearing that they would worry about her again.
Walking around randomly.
"He's fine, let's go. I was just going to find something to eat, but Wushuang was so hungry that his stomach growled." Nangong Lieye smiled and took the big fish behind her. Although it was not enough to feed the three of them, it could at least fill their stomachs.
"Ah, then I'll go find some food. You go in and grill the fish first. Those guys have tricked me away, so don't worry about it for now." Hua Yueling said with a smile.
"I've seen it, and there's nothing to catch. It's getting late, so let's not go." Nangong Lieye, a prince, naturally didn't know what else to eat in the mountains.
"It's okay, I'll be right back!" Hua Yueling said and walked in the other direction.
Nangong Lieye looked at her troubledly and quickly took the fish back first.
"Wushuang, Ling'er is back, look!" Nangong Lieye happily carried the fish into the cave.
Mo Wushuang's eyes lit up, he looked behind him and said, "Where is Ling'er?"
"She said to go find some food and let me grill the fish for you first!" Nangong Lieye started to kill the fish with his dagger. Both of their long swords had fallen off. Fortunately, Nangong Lieye was used to carrying them with him.
dagger.
Mo Wushuang felt sour in his heart and said: "Such a big fish is enough to eat, why is Ling'er still looking for something to eat? Isn't it dark?" Mo Wushuang looked at the entrance of the cave, and the light was much darker.
"I can't stop her. She said she would be back soon. Don't worry, those people have been deceived by her. Tomorrow we will go out the original way and go back when we find the official road." Nangong Lieye thought to himself
With.
"I don't even know where I am now. Hey, I guess I will have to stay in the mountains for a while." Mo Wushuang felt that it was not that easy.
"It's okay, the three of us will take care of each other and we won't be afraid!" Nangong Lieye said optimistically, although he didn't know how to sleep tonight. As a prince, he had never been to such a deep mountain and old forest.
When Nangong Lieye was grilling the fish, Hua Yueling also rushed back.
"Wushuang!" Hua Yueling's first shout was Mo Wushuang.
"Ling'er." Mo Wushuang stood up excitedly and watched Hua Yueling come in wrapping something in her cotton coat.
"Are you okay? Are your feet okay?" Hua Yueling put down her things and ran to him to check.
Mo Wushuang's eyes heated up and he smiled and said: "It's okay, I just soaked it in hot water, it's just these pants." Mo Wushuang was really depressed, he only had half a pair of pants.
"Don't be afraid, I will help you make up for it later." Hua Yueling thought for a while and said.
Nangong Lieye saw a lot of wild vegetables falling out of her cotton-padded clothes, and was immediately surprised and said: "Ling'er, where did you find these?"
