The heroine Jiangshan

Chapter 123 Gathering
Yun Ruochen didn't lie to her younger brother, and she was as confused as he was about where they are now.

It's not that she doesn't know the direction, nor does she lack the ability to survive in the wild, but she has been busy running away and has no time to stop to confirm the location of the two.

According to her memory, she chose the same direction as Guo Zheng took them away last night.If the enemy was strong enough, the road leading to the capital would have been blocked, and she rashly took Yun Yao to run there, but she was throwing herself into a trap.

Break out from the back of the forest first, and then find a way to detour back to the capital—provided that the capital has not fallen.

At this time, she couldn't think of anything too far away, so she could only take one step at a time.

"Sister, I'm hungry."

Yun Yao sucked his dirty little finger and looked at her pitifully.Before waiting for her response, he simply stuffed the jasper ring in his mouth.

Fortunately, Yun Ruochen quickly pulled out his half-swallowed ring, angrily and funny at the same time: "Xing'er, you can't eat this thing carelessly!"

She put the ring back on her finger, put Yun Yao down, and told him not to run around or yell loudly.

"elder sister?"

Yun Yao's expressive ability is not very good.He watched suspiciously after his sister put him down, and turned around in the nearby grass, wondering what his sister was doing?

Yun Ruochen was looking for something to eat, but the result disappointed her.

It's only beginning of spring now, and the winter snow has melted not long ago. The grass in the woods is all new, and there are no fruits on the branches at all.Unless you gnaw on the turf, there is really nothing to eat!

"Xing'er, don't worry, let's walk first, looking for food while walking."

In fact, Yun Ruochen was only ten years old, and his body was weak. He fled for half the night holding his younger brother who weighed twenty catties, and his arms were so painful that he couldn't lift them up.But not long after Yunyao learned to walk, he faltered, calling for his sister to hug him before taking two steps.

"Xing'er, my sister can't hold you anymore. You are a man, can you go by yourself?"

Yun Ruochen was very helpless, she was so powerless that it was difficult for her to even walk.Yun Yao pursed his mouth, but he didn't feel distressed. He sniffed and said, "Okay, Xing'er is a man."

"Xing'er is so cute!"

Yun Ruochen touched his little head, his brother is such a good boy!She must find a way to get him out of here.

The siblings walked slowly through the dense forest where there was no way to find a way. During this period, Yun Ruochen tried to find food several times, but all ended in failure.The forest has just woken up from hibernation, and it's so hard to find enough food to eat!

At the same time, Yun Ruochen was also paying attention to the nearby enemies, but he didn't hear the sound of horses neighing and weapons clashing for a long time. Maybe both the enemy and us have left the dense forest?

"Sister, you are hungry..."

No matter how sensible Yun Yao is, he is only a one-year-old child.After enduring it for a long time, he finally reached his limit, crying and tugging at the corner of Yun Ruochen's clothes: "Sister, I'm hungry, I can't walk."

"Xing'er is good, then Xing'er wait here, can my sister go find something to eat for you?"

Yun Ruochen hastily took out a handkerchief from his arms to wipe his tears and nose, and found that Yun Yao's forehead was still quite hot.It's no wonder he was crying, such a small child has a fever and is hungry, and has to walk by himself, Yun Yao's persistence until now is quite remarkable!

"it is good."

Yun Yao nodded obediently, and immediately lay down on the grass and did not leave.Yun Ruochen was still worried, so he pulled out a golden hairpin from his head and drew a small evil spirit formation.Although it can't resist any powerful enemies, small things like snakes, insects, rats and ants can still be kept out.

After settling down her brother, she turned around and hurried to find food.

"Although I usually have a lot of fish and meat, I haven't wasted food anyway. Don't treat me like this, God."

Yun Ruochen searched hard for a long time, but only found one raw bamboo shoot.She wanted to shoot a hare and pheasant or something, but she didn't know if the fierce fighting in the forest last night scared away the animals in the forest, and she didn't see any small animals this morning.

Moreover, if she appeared, she might not be able to be found...

Yun Ruochen sighed in frustration, and was about to turn around when he suddenly heard his younger brother's cry!
"Star!"

Under Yun Ruochen's fatigue, his vigilance was greatly reduced, and his sense of breath became dull.If in normal times, someone walked into the range of several feet around her, she would have noticed it long ago.At this moment, he could only run back in a hurry!

"Xing'er... ah!"

When Yun Ruochen rushed to the place where Yun Yao was lying on her stomach, she realized that there was a person she knew very well standing in front of Yun Yao, who was also looking at her in surprise!
"Princess, I have found you!"

Ye Shenyan grabbed Yun Ruochen's hand ecstatically, and asked her, "Are you injured? Are you okay?"

"Fortunately."

It was Ye Shenyan.

Her wrist held by Ye Shenyan felt warm and slightly painful.Ye Shenyan didn't realize that he was holding it too tightly, and looked at Yun Ruochen who was covered in dust and grass roots with distress.

Yun Ruochen didn't break free from his hand, but felt a warm current slowly flowing from his palm to her heart.

She stared at the young man in front of her in a daze, only to realize that he was already taller than her, and his hands and feet had become very strong.This boy who was "picked up" by her was no longer the little beggar who stole chickens late at night.

He has become a relative who can make her feel at ease in the desperate situation...

"Be careful..."

Just as Yun Ruochen uttered these two words, his eyes instantly blurred.The last memory before she fell into a coma was that she fell limply in Ye Shenyan's arms, but she let her slack go and fell asleep peacefully.

With him here, I probably don't have to work so hard...Brother, I'll leave it to you...

When Yun Ruochen woke up, she found that she was sleeping in a small cave, with a "straw mattress" made of thick branches and dry grass under her body, and her tattered fox fur was covering her body.

And when she turned her head, she saw her younger brother's big head was sleeping soundly next to her, and there was a light stream of saliva flowing from her pouting mouth.

The cave was very dark, and from her perspective, she couldn't see the entrance of the cave, only the fire burning not far away.Ye Shenyan was sitting by the fire with his back against her, fiddling with something.

Yun Ruochen tried his best to overcome the soreness in his body, sat up with force, and suddenly smelled a strong smell of meat in his nose.

"woke up?"

Ye Shenyan turned around and smiled at her: "Are you hungry? Come eat my roasted pheasant!"

There are chickens to eat!
Yun Ruochen was extremely happy, and carefully moved down from the straw mattress not to disturb his younger brother, and sat down by the fire in two or three steps.

"Eat chicken legs. Burn your mouth carefully."

Ye Shenyan giggled and handed her the freshly baked chicken legs.The hot chicken legs are burnt by the fire, the thin chicken skin is golden yellow, and the oily taste is not to mention how attractive!
Yun Ruochen had long ago left the rules and eating habits in the country of Java, tore open the chicken with both hands and stuffed it into his mouth.So fragrant, so fragrant, so delicious!

"You still have salt with you?"

After several mouthfuls, Yun Ruochen freed his mouth to talk to Ye Shenyan.She was still worrying about whether the raw roasted pheasant would be bland if it had no taste, but she didn't expect that the chicken legs were evenly sprinkled with salt, it was so delicious, it was delicious in the world!
Yun Ruochen, who considers himself a gourmet, has eaten a lot of good food in his life, especially in the palace every day.But at this moment, she felt that there was nothing as delicious as the roasted chicken leg in her hand.

Until many years later, she still remembered the aroma and taste of the roasted chicken legs.

Probably from this day on, she no longer regarded Ye Shenyan as an ignorant and mischievous little boy, but as a partner who sat side by side with her and shared a roast chicken.

Her prudence has grown.

"I've had a hard time finding you."

Ye Shenyan said that he was not in a hurry to eat, seeing Yun Ruochen finished eating the chicken leg, he handed over another chicken leg. "When they stormed the camp last night, I came out to look for you. It's a pity that you are in a big car, and I haven't practiced my lightness skills well, so I can't run fast..."

"Fortunately, Master Bai Ye taught me the secret technique. I can still sense that you are nearby. I have been looking for it for a long time..."

Yun Ruochen understands that there are some methods of tracking, and it is possible to track a specific object alone.Ye Shenyan's kung fu is not considered strong, but Nie Shen's goal of training him is to let him become Yun Ruochen's helper, and he must teach him how to find Yun Ruochen at any time.

"You passed out just now, and Xiao Shizi cried so hard again, I will put you in this cave first." Ye Shenyan said: "I am used to walking on mountain roads, and I often do things like finding caves and building fires. You must bring the salt with you, when you go on missions, you often have to cook food in the wild, so why don’t you bring salt?”

"...It seems that you have really learned a lot from listening to Yulou."

After eating two chicken legs, Yun Ruochen was in a good mood.She looked back at Yun Yao who was sleeping soundly, and Ye Shenyan said again: "Don't worry, Princess, I gave Xiao Shizi a piece of dry pancake that I brought with me, and he fell asleep when he was full."

Yun Ruochen smiled wryly and said: "He is so young, he really suffers... Sigh."

Suddenly remembering that Ye Shenyan grew up among beggars from birth, she couldn't say anything.No matter how hard Yun Yao was, he was just a little frightened, at least she was still protected by her sister.And Ye Shenyan...

"Shen Yan, thank you."

"Why do you thank me?" Ye Shenyan was very surprised: "I will definitely find you."

It is his duty to protect her.

That's what Master Bai Ye said, and he also thinks so.The little princess needed him, so he took him in and sent him to Tingyulou.

She is the meaning of his life, and he thinks it is very good.

"what?"

Yun Ruochen stood up suddenly, and said anxiously: "Someone is approaching!"

"what?"

Ye Shenyan was startled, and quickly lay down on the ground to listen to the movement nearby.After a while, he said: "The other party seems to be riding a horse? There is only one horse, how could..."

"Could it be an enemy alone?"

Yun Ruochen thought about it, and asked Ye Shenyan to put out the fire first.Before the two put out the fire, they heard someone outside the cave saying: "Hey, there is a cave here, let's hide here for a night first!"

It was Gu Tuo's voice!
