Chapter 208

They didn't think so much in the morning.

But now it's really not right to be mentioned by his Highness the fifth prince.

"Are we going back now?" asked the escort.

"For the sake of safety, go back." Xiao Jin raised her eyes and looked around. She felt someone hiding nearby. Only after the last time Wei Yan was kidnapped, the safety of Wei ruoyi is the responsibility of royal guards. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, it's better to go back first.

Fortunately, it is not far away now.

He raised his eyes and looked at his head. The dense forest was covered. Although it was winter and the leaves fell, the dry branches were intertwined layer by layer, just like weaving a big net. The snow was covered between the branches, so it was like building a canopy on his head. If not, perhaps those who pass by the branches will not break the branches and leave traces.

Xiao Jin flew up from the horse and jumped onto the branch. She really saw someone leave footprints on the snow on the branch. It was very shallow, which proved that her martial arts was very high and she almost walked on the snow without trace. It hasn't snowed since this morning. The footprints are new. They passed shortly before they came. I'm afraid someone is hiding somewhere in front. I'll just wait for everyone to disperse when hunting, so that I can directly take advantage of their distraction and catch Wei ruoyi.

Xiao Jin doesn't want to take this risk at all.

After falling back on the horse, Xiao Jin ordered everyone to turn back.

Originally they wanted to live in the mountains and forests for a night, but now it seems too dangerous.

At Xiao Jin's command, everyone began to turn the horse's head. At this time, a black crow flew in the forest and croaked twice. I don't know whether it was the cry or the vibration of wings. Snow was swept off the branches.

Everyone stopped suddenly and looked at the crow flying high from the branches.

"Don't you think it's a little strange in the mountain today?" a guard whispered.

"What?"

"On weekdays, we also go into the mountains to hunt. In this climate, rabbits have long come out to look for food. We haven't seen a hare's hair all the way." the man whispered, "it's a little abnormal."

When he said this, everyone suddenly felt that it was reasonable.

It has snowed for two days. As long as it is sunny, rabbits and foxes will run all over the mountains. The mountain forest belongs to the purple Marquis house. On weekdays, no people come up to hunt. There are many animals. You can see it in two steps.

But today, we have walked out of other hospitals for nearly half a day, but we can't even see the shadow of a rabbit.

The mood of the crowd was complicated. In addition, the crow just flew by and surprised the snow, which made everyone feel a little depressed and frightened.

"What voice?" Xiao Jin pricked up her ears and frowned. He heard a long winded sound from a distance. It seemed that a large piece of things ran along the snow. The sound was getting louder and louder. It should be directed at them.

When he said this, everyone was even more nervous. Everyone stood up and listened, but the horses they rode were restless and restless.

A deep and distant wolf howl came, and then the howling wolf howled one after another.

"It's the wolves!" someone shouted in surprise.

"Go!" Xiao Jin said decisively to Wei ruoyi, "run back!" then he dropped a whip according to Wei ruoyi's horse ass.

The horse was restless because he felt the smell of wild wolves. He was dragged by Wei ruoyi, so he didn't move forward. Instead, he paced his four hoofs back and forth. Now he was photographed by Xiao Jin coldly. The horse completely spread its four hoofs and jumped forward.

Wei ruoyi intuitively felt numb in her arm. Even if she was wearing gloves, the wound on her hand was strangled by the thick reins, and her tears almost didn't fall down.

Sheng Sheng held back the pain and couldn't just cry. She worked hard on her waist and back and tightly clamped her legs on the horse's belly, so she didn't let herself fall off the horse's back.

The horse spread her hooves and ran in the snow. The snow was deep. The horse she rode was very smart, but it was still very difficult to run.

The sound of wolf howling seems to come from all directions of the mountain forest. It is getting closer and closer. Some guard horses are timid, either running around or shivering in place. They are unwilling to take a half step forward.

A good team, accompanied by more than a dozen guards, is now not as neat as before, but scattered. The wolves have not yet approached, and the formation has been dispersed.

Xiao Jin rode her horse and closely followed Wei ruoyi. Seeing her pale face, she was about to comfort her. At the moment of looking back, she saw four or five wild wolves jumping out of the woods.

The wolf's body is dexterous. If these horses are so heavy, they run fast.

After a while, several wolves rushed over and bit the necks of the two frightened horses. The smell of blood stimulated other wild wolves, and a steady stream of wild wolves ran out of the woods.

Those guards who had been riding on horseback saw their horses bitten and tried to protect themselves with a knife, but how could their personal strength stand the wolves? They struggled to support them for a short period of time and could cut two wild wolves trying to get close, because there were more wolves from behind to avoid jumping out of the woods.

Some people running in front wanted to turn their horses around to help them. As soon as they turned around, they were surrounded by wolves and couldn't get away. Some people wanted to shoot with bows and arrows. They were all hunting in the mountain and had enough arrows. However, if they could shoot two arrows, they couldn't shoot the third arrow, because wolves had rushed towards him while he was making a bow.

Xiao Jin's regretful intestines are green now. He clearly asked whether there are wolves in the nearby mountains and forests last night. The answer is that they have been in other hospitals for many years and haven't seen wolves in the mountains and forests. Maybe there are wild wolves, but a large group of wolves have never seen them. He just looked back and saw that there were as many as twenty or thirty wolves jumping out of the woods in a short time, and there were others behind.

He has been fighting with people in royal guards for so many years. It is the first time he has met such a large number of wolves. Not to mention that he brought only a dozen guards, even if the number doubled, he probably couldn't cope.

"Don't run away. Gather here!" Xiao Jin has seen that the strength of these wolves is to divide and surround many guards, so he shouted to gather the rest of the guards.
