Before Yu Hai finished speaking, Zhu Junfan interrupted the conversation: "How can the pork I bought have the fragrance I hunted by myself? Don't be afraid, no matter which of the guards brought by the master, they can be singled out. A fierce tiger. I’m afraid I won’t meet it. If I encounter a fierce beast, I will tell it to come and go!”

In desperation, Yu Hai had no choice but to take "Prince Jing's son" and his party for a walk around the periphery of Xishan. Yu Xiaocao was also packed and brought by Zhu Junyang.

The drought is still going on, and the grass and trees on the mountain that have been eaten by locusts are withered. The entire Western Mountain looks like an old man with dysentery on his head. Yu Xiaocao's previous worries were not superfluous. The herbivores who lost the plants as food began to face starvation, and some starved to death because they could not find food. Yu Xiaocao found a hare that had just died in a crevice of stones not far from the road. It was as thin as a stick, with mottled fur on its body, and it looked very miserable.

Not long after the group walked, they encountered a family of wild boars—two big wild boars and three young wild boars came out to look for food. Fortunately, wild boars can eat grass roots in the soil with their fangs and gnaw the bark of trees. Although they look thinner, they are still very energetic.

The guards of "Prince Jing's son" surrounded the wild boar's family in the center, and their master drew a bow and arrow, and shot at the male wild boar's eyes. Wild boars have thick skin and thick flesh, and it is difficult for ordinary arrows to penetrate its thick skin. For a one-shot kill, aim for its weak point—the eyes.

The male wild boar seemed to be aware of the danger, and became irritable. He took the female wild boar and her children with him, and was about to leave the area where he felt uneasy. Just when it was blinking its small eyes, trying to find out where the danger was, Zhu Junfan shot an arrow at it, and the feathered arrow passed through the wild boar's eyes and penetrated deeply into the wild boar's head. The boar fell down dead before he even had time to snort. Yu Hai looked at it, and secretly praised "good arrow technique" in his heart!

When the wild boar realized that her husband had been killed, she became crazy and ran aimlessly in the woods. Coincidentally, the direction of its rampage was facing Yu Xiaocao.

Although Yu Xiaocao has the affinity to tame animals because of the Sky-Bending Stone, she has no way to deal with the crazy wild boar. The wild boar is said to be able to beat the blind man!

Seeing that the wild boar's fangs were about to penetrate her body, Yu Xiaocao felt her body lighten up, and found herself on the tree in the blink of an eye. Glancing at the arms wrapped around her waist, she turned her head and saw Xiaojun Wang's *icy face. It turned out that at the critical moment, Zhu Junyang jumped onto a nearby big tree with crooked neck with his arms around her waist.

"Qinggong, do you know how to do it?" Yu Xiaocao's big eyes were twinkling with starlight, that kind of naked admiration made Zhu Junyang burst with confidence.

He pretended not to care about it, and said indifferently: "Increasing energy and lightening body is a basic skill that martial arts practitioners must have, and it's not worth mentioning!"

Yu Xiaocao's starry eyes are still there, she asked: "After practicing lightness kung fu, can I fly over the eaves and walls, and climb cliffs and mountains like walking on flat ground?"

Zhu Junyang nodded slightly and said: "In theory, it is possible, as long as you find the right foothold, climbing up the cliff should not be a big problem."

"Wow! That's amazing!! Little Prince, can you give me lightness kung fu?" Yu Xiaocao had long forgotten that there was a big wild boar hitting the tree under the tree, and she was so focused on learning lightness kung fu.

Zhu Junyang took a look at her slender body, curled his lips and said: "You? Let's forget it! Lightweight Kung Fu is not an independent skill, but depends on internal strength. If you start learning now, don't say much. It takes more than ten or twenty years of practice to achieve a small success. By then, it should be no problem to be able to jump such a high tree."

When Yu Xiaocao heard it, she needed to practice inner martial arts, and it took ten or twenty years of practice before she could jump up a tree that was three or four meters high. She can climb such a tall tree without learning lightness kung fu, okay? Immediately, most of her desire to become a chivalrous woman flying over the eaves and walls disappeared.

While speaking, Zhu Junfan had already wiped out the wild boar that crazily hit the big tree. The other three little wild boars should have just been born, but they are wild and unruly. However, under the guards' hands, it was nothing to mention, and was quickly captured alive.

"Don't kill those little wild boars, take them back and raise them, and then kill and eat them when they gain weight!" Yu Xiaocao slid down from the big tree quickly, looked at the little wild boars being carried by the guards and howled, and suggested road. These little wild boars add up to no more than 20 catties, and they are so thin that their stomachs are suffocated. They don't taste much meat. Why don't they take them home and raise them, and they will kill pigs and eat meat during the Chinese New Year!

Zhu Junfan made an expression of "listen to her" to the guard, and then made fun of his cousin, "Ah Junyang! Where's your bow? You don't bring a bow and arrow when you go hunting, and you only know to run up a tree when you are in danger. It's not you." style!"

Zhu Junyang glanced at the emperor with his narrow and charming phoenix eyes, and indifferently ignored his provocation. But Yu Xiaocao jumped out and said: "The little prince's arm was injured, and he can't lift heavy objects for half a year, let alone draw a bow. How can you be a brother, and you don't know what your brother's injury is, and you still come to tease him?"

"Presumptuous!" Zhu Junfan's bodyguard stared round his eyes like copper bells, and shouted violently.

Yu Xiaocao is not afraid of him, her godfather's eyes are bigger than his, isn't it? He is more majestic than him when he is not staring. She raised her little nose, snorted coldly at the guards, and said: "You are not pretending to be a tiger, your master hasn't said anything yet, how can you speak? My lord, your subordinates are too unruly. Tune, Teach, Teach!"

With a warm smile on his face, Zhu Junfan nodded in agreement: "That's right! Miss Xiaocao is right. As an older brother, I don't care enough for my younger brother! What are you still doing here? Why don't you step down quickly?" ?”

Su Ran glanced at the guard indifferently, and said calmly: "Go back, remember to go to the punishment hall to receive the punishment..."

The guard's forehead was dripping with cold sweat, and the execution hall that the chief executive said was obviously a terrible place. Yu Xiaocao felt a little sympathetic to him, and said: "Mr. Su, for the sake of his first crime, let him be spared once. After all, he is also eager to protect the Lord."

The bodyguards brought out by the emperor this time were all trained by Su Ran, and they were all elites among the bodyguards. They had already experienced Su Ran's methods, so the guards were all terrified of this handsome young man who looked harmless, like a mouse seeing a cat.

Su Ran has a well-known feature, that is, he does not allow anyone to refute the decision he made, even if the emperor intercedes, it is useless! Therefore, those guards who have made mistakes, please ask for blessings!

Su Ran looked at the little girl in front of her with a smile on her face, but she was a kind-hearted little girl who didn't hold grudges. With a soft voice, he said softly: "He scolded you, and his attitude was so bad, I punished him for you, shouldn't you be happy?"

"What I just said to Lord Shizi is indeed disrespectful. Brother guard is loyal to protect the lord, what's wrong?" Yu Xiaocao spoke for the guard without any grievances.

"You also said that the master didn't speak. How can he speak?" Seeing the little girl reasoning with him seriously, Su Ran thought of teasing her. The guards all found it inconceivable, if the guy who refuted the head manager would have been slapped to death by him in normal times, how could he reason with the little girl in such a harmonious manner

"The majesty of the master has been provoked. Of course, the subordinates must jump out to defend it immediately. If you have to wait for the master to give an order, it is too blind. From my point of view, if you are reprimanded, you will definitely treat him. Feeling displeased. But from the standpoint of the big brother of the guard, not only should he not be punished for doing this, but it is also worthy of praise!" Yu Xiaocao felt deep down in her heart, thinking that there was nothing wrong with the guard's illness, why should he be punished

The smile on Su Ran's face deepened: "According to this, I want to punish him. Is it my fault?"

Yu Xiaocao nodded, and said: "If you insist on punishing him, it must be wrong! His Excellency just asked the elder guard to step down, and he didn't say that he would be punished. Why are you doing it for him? My lord's subordinates, although your position is a little higher than him, it is not acceptable to do so, and you will be hated by others. Mr. Su, you must convince others with virtue!"

All the guards took a deep breath, and the head manager was taught a lesson by a little girl. This little girl is miserable. The person who taught the chief executive a long time ago has already turned into a pile of dead bones.

However, Zhu Junfan watched with great interest as the little girl from the Yu family preached to Su Ran. The principles were still the same, and she even knew how to "convince people with virtue". interesting!

To everyone's surprise, Su Ran nodded with a serious expression, and said, "Miss Xiaocao is right. Only by convincing others with virtue can people be convinced. Since you think it's unreasonable for me to punish him, then withdraw." Take his punishment!"

"Mr. Su is wise!" Yu Xiaocao flattered him a little. When she looked at the elder brother guard, she found that the cold sweat on his head hadn't dried yet. Mr. Su is such a gentle and amiable person, why does the brother guard look like he saw a ghost? It's too timid!

Seeing his guards, Zhu Junfan looked like he had seen a ghost on his face. He suppressed a smile and asked, "Junyang, what happened to your arm? It sounds serious."

With a paralyzed face, Zhu Junyang said concisely and clearly: "I'm fine now!"

Zhu Junfan turned his questioning gaze to Yu Xiaocao, and it was obvious for her to clear up the confusion. Yu Xiaocao really lived up to his expectations and said: "His arm was to save my father, he forcibly pulled the bow that he couldn't draw normally, and hurt his tendons. Fortunately, Dr. Sun's medical skills are good, and he healed his arm. However, it is still a recovery period within half a year, and the hands cannot bear weight."

"Then he just carried you up the tree, will it hurt his arm?" Zhu Junfan is well aware of the seriousness of hurting his tendons. This little cousin is too self-willed and reckless, Zhu Junfan knows his bow, the two famous strong men in the army can't pull it apart, so he even forcibly draws the bow, doesn't he want his arm? Zhu Junfan couldn't help but worry.
