The heroine Jiangshan

Chapter 115 Warning Signs
"Ruochen?"

Gu Che didn't pay attention at first, but when he turned around, he found that Yun Ruochen's face was as white as paper and he was in a daze, his eyes were hollow and empty, and he became anxious all of a sudden.

"Ruochen, are you uncomfortable?"

He didn't shy away from it, he reined in the horse and approached Yun Ruochen, and took her hand.

After holding it, he felt that Yun Ruochen's hand was as cold as ice, and he was even more anxious: "Hey, if you don't feel well, let's go back?"

"what?"

At this moment, Yun Ruochen seemed to wake up suddenly, turned his gaze to his face in a daze, and subconsciously let out an ah.

"My lord, are you feeling unwell?"

Several guard commanders all surrounded him.Because Xia Hong and other court ladies were going to hunt in the mountains, they did not accompany them.These guards were afraid that something would happen to Yun Ruochen, so they would not be enough to accompany them even if they had nine lives.

"...It's okay. I was blinded by the wind just now."

Yun Ruochen calmed down by pressing his heart, and at first glance, his complexion seemed to have recovered a lot.

The guards looked at each other, undecided whether to persuade Yun Ruochen to return.But Yun Ruochen didn't give them time to think, he swung the whip in his hand, and the horse under him neighed and hooved straight into the forest, and the group of people could only chase after them with bitter faces.

Yun Ruochen didn't let the horse run wildly, but intentionally controlled the speed of the horse, following the team in front of him unhurriedly.

At this time, Gu Che caught up with her again, still observing her expression with anxiety, but saw that she just kept her mouth tightly shut, as if she was thinking about something.

After getting along with her these days, Gu Che has a little understanding of Yun Ruochen's temperament and habits, and knows that she should be thinking about something very important at this moment.

Although he was very worried about her body, Gu Che opened his mouth and swallowed the words.It's just that he put most of his attention on her, lest something happened to her, and his hunting thoughts subconsciously faded.

"The palpitations just now, something is wrong..."

Yun Ruochen gently rubbed the jasper ring with his right thumb.

Now she has lost her vitality, her cultivation base has been greatly reduced, and her use of heaven and earth energy has been reduced many times compared to her previous life.

But some abilities are deeply engraved in her soul, even if she is reincarnated, she will not disappear.

The palpitations just now were probably her subconscious sensitive reaction to some ominous signs?

Yes.

Ever since she left Beijing, she was always restless and tired easily. Even Nie Shen sneaked into her tent that night and didn't notice it in time.

Although Nie Shen's replenishment of qi made her regain her spirits temporarily, but her heart still felt like something was being pressed down, and she felt uncomfortable from time to time.

She didn't pay much attention to it before, since she passed out continuously on New Year's Eve, her qi and blood were weak, and her chest tightness was not a strange symptom that suddenly appeared.

It wasn't until the reminder of the cold breath that hurt her heart just now that she really paid attention to the warning signs that came one after another.

Could something happen that she didn't want to see?
"Whoa, hit it!"

Suddenly there was a small commotion ahead, Yun Ruochen casually raised his head and glanced, and saw the group of teenagers who came with Gu Che just now raising their bows and cheering, maybe someone hit the prey?

"Did they catch the prey?"

Hearing Yun Ruochen's question, Gu Che curled his lips and said, "I just shot a wild rabbit, or I was caught in a trap first and couldn't move because my legs were pressed... This is also called hunting."

"Oh, don't be too demanding on the flowers in other people's greenhouses. It would be nice to be able to shoot the rabbit instead of the big tree next to it."

"Greenhouse flowers? You're a fresh word." Gu Che saw that her mood seemed to have eased a little, and asked tentatively, "Ruochen, are you alright?"

"It's nothing, just now, for some reason, I suddenly felt frightened..." Yun Ruochen responded casually.

If it was any other girl, Gu Che would wonder if she was afraid of hunting and could not see blood, but Yun Ruochen?Forget it, that's the master who isn't even afraid of her own little Jin, so she certainly won't be afraid of these things.

"...You, you are always thinking too much. Don't think too much."

Gu Che shrugged, stretched out his hand and patted her on the head, like a big brother.

Yun Ruochen was stunned for a moment, turned to look at Gu Che, and suddenly felt that Gu Che was actually a very careful and caring boy.

He probably felt that his palpitations were caused by worrying about the complicated issues between the emperor and the prince, which hurt his spirits, right?

"OK, all right."

She smiled brightly.

Seeing that she regained her spirits and felt much better, Gu Che pulled out a long arrow from the quiver on her back with her backhand: "Hmph, let me show you how powerful I am!"

"Okay. I want to eat roast wild boar tonight, you can figure it out."

"Hey...you are trying to force me to do a trick..."

The two chattered like this, and drove to the depths of the woods.

Gu Che's riding skills, archery skills, and hunting experience were indeed far superior to others. In just half a day, he had hunted two wild goats, a gray fox, and several small hares and pheasants.

The guards were also very excited to hunt with him, and everyone shot one after another, and soon their team caught dozens of prey, which were divided into four or five horses, causing other teams to stare.

"Hey...you have so many prey."

At noon when they were resting and eating at the mid-mountain campsite, Zhao Xuan also came over, and was very surprised to see their spoils.

Today's Zhao Xuan no longer wears a toga with long sleeves, but the tight hunting suit on his body is still eye-catching white, looks very energetic, and looks more lively than usual.

From the first day, Yun Ruochen saw Zhao Xuan in the sacrificial procession, but he never had the chance to speak privately.She thought that Zhao Xuan was in poor health and would not participate in the Spring Hunt, but she did not expect to meet him here.

"Brother Xuan, what prey did you hunt?"

Zhao Xuan said frankly: "No, I can't even draw the full bow with my arms, so I can't shoot arrows. I just come out with everyone to relax."

Gu Che had an indescribable feeling for Zhao Xuan, if he hated it, it wouldn't count, but he didn't like it.

He doesn't get along with many people, but he completely ignores these people.Zhao Xuan... Heh heh, he doesn't like to see the little princess and him have a good relationship.

But he couldn't help admitting that Zhao Xuan was much prettier than himself from the looks of it.Well, he didn't mean to belittle Zhao Xuan. He felt that the word "beautiful" was very appropriate for Zhao Xuan!

Regarding Zhao Xuan's frank confession that he doesn't know how to shoot arrows, Gu Che still has a good impression.

If you don’t know it, just say you don’t know it, isn’t it good?It’s like I don’t know how to recite poems, so I never pretend to be a talented person in front of others. Even if others cast contemptuous looks of “Why are you so self-willed to degenerate when you are so well educated”, it doesn’t hurt or itch.

Because of Zhao Xuan's calm attitude, Gu Che inadvertently had a little more affection for him.And Gu Che's way of expressing his affection has always been very direct.

"Actually, drawing a bow depends on skill, not necessarily death. If you want to learn archery, I can teach you."

Gu Che puffed out his chest and patted Zhao Xuan's shoulder proudly, Yun Ruochen was worried when he saw it, Ah Che, you should be careful!Do you know that Zhao Xuan is very sick?
Based on her usual measurement unit, Gu Che, who is nearly 14 years old, is about 1.7 meters tall, while Zhao Xuan, who is only 11 years old, is less than 1.6 meters tall. The difference between the two is more than half a head.As for Gu Che's muscular figure, it is even stronger than Zhao Xuan's by a whole circle. If you compare it like this...

"Unexpectedly, it fits well! Is this the cutest height difference in the legend?"

Yun Ruochen rubbed his chin without integrity, and moved a few steps away from her two elder brothers, and smirked maliciously.The combination of Ah Che and Brother Xuan is actually very eye-catching!

Gu Che shivered inexplicably, and Zhao Xuan suddenly felt a shudder on his back, both of them were completely unaware that they were silently joined together by the little princess in their hearts.

Zhao Xuan responded to Gu Che's kindness with his usual indifferent attitude: "Thank you, I will ask you for advice again when I have the opportunity."

He would not think that Gu Che was deliberately showing off his archery skills, or that he was insinuating that he could not shoot arrows. After all, Zhao Xuan understood Gu Che's straightforward character.

He just simply doesn't like activities like hunting.It's good to ride horses and relax...

Gu Che just said that, and was not frustrated by Zhao Xuan's polite refusal, and started chatting with Yun Ruochen instead.

After a rest in the afternoon, everyone set out again, and it was not until the sun set to the west that the drums for the return journey were beaten at the foot of the mountain.

Although Yun Ruochen enjoyed this rare outdoor activity, her physical condition was too poor, and she was still tired after tossing around all day.

Back in the camp, Xia Hong and Qiu Rong hurriedly changed her hunting clothes, and brought hot water to rub her face.

"I'm going to rest for a while and call me at dinner."

Yun Ruochen sent the two maids outside and entered her inner tent alone.

Xia Hongqiurong didn't find it strange, but they didn't expect that Yun Ruochen's real purpose was not this short rest.

"Hey, I'm not in good spirits... I don't know if this method of blood divination will work?"

In the inner tent, Yun Ruochen shook out a piece of yellow talisman paper, and took out a small porcelain bottle from his bosom.

The mouth of the porcelain bottle was filled with a cork stopper.When the plug was gently pulled out, a faint smell of blood quickly diffused in the tent.

What was contained in this bottle was a bottle of blood that Yun Ruochen filled the throat of a certain pheasant that Gu Che shot and killed while everyone was not paying attention at noon.

Although she didn't show any abnormalities during the day, she couldn't let go of the sudden warning sign in her heart.

Since you can't rely on your own vitality to do divination, let's use other props.

The blood of the pheasant is often used by warlocks when writing talismans. With her unique technique, it may be possible to deduce something a little bit.

Yun Ruochen concentrated on using his finger as a pen, reciting the formula, and quickly drew the blood talisman.

The dark red pheasant blood slowly soaked into the yellow talisman paper, forming a strange and mysterious pattern...

Yun Ruochen's movements became faster and faster, and he drew nine blood symbols in the blink of an eye!
After drawing the talisman, she took off the jasper ring from her hand and solemnly placed it in the center of the magic circle formed by the blood talisman.

"start!"

　Last night, the neighborhood where I lived had no water supply, so I had to go back to my parents’ house in the outskirts of the city to stay for the night, but the computer at my parents’ house caused a revolution... Woooooooo, I don’t even want to...
