The two looked at each other and asked, "Second Young Master? What's wrong with you?"
Xiao Junheng recovered, waved his hand, walked to where they were roasting game and sat down, saying, "Don't worry about me, just leave me alone."
Seeing this, the two men didn't ask any more questions. They roasted the game while paying attention to their surroundings.
As the sky gradually darkened, the temperature in the forest dropped and several people sat around the fire eating meat.
After eating, Yue'er helped to fiddle with the branches or add branches to keep the fire burning. Worried that the little girl could not withstand the night wind in the forest, Xiao Junyan held her in his arms, covered her with a cloak and let her sleep.
The next day, early morning.
When the morning sunlight refracted through the lush leaves and fell on Xiao Junyan's face, he instinctively tightened one hand, and with the other he wanted to pull up his cloak to cover the fat baby in his arms.
However, he felt something empty in his clenched hands. He opened his eyes almost instantly and looked into his arms. The fat baby was nowhere to be found.
He swept the surroundings with a sharp and indifferent gaze, and released his spiritual sense. Apart from the occasional chirping of insects in the forest, the only sound was the rustling of the wind blowing through the trees.
Run away again
His face looked a little ugly. He reached for the dagger hidden in his sleeve, but it was empty. Apparently, the little guy not only knocked them down and ran away, but also took back the dagger he had confiscated.
This was the first time in all these years that he had fallen for such a chubby little girl, and he had even let her run away right under his nose twice in a row. You can imagine how depressed he felt.
Thinking about this dangerous forest and the small size of the little fat baby, if he encounters a ferocious beast, I'm afraid he won't be able to survive.
He frowned, glanced at the three people who were still sleeping, and did not wake them up. Instead, he picked up a few stones, took a deep breath, and threw the stones at them. Then he went into the forest to look for the little fat baby who had escaped to who knows where.
Xiao Junheng was awakened by the pain of a stone hitting him. When he woke up, he was startled. They were supposed to take turns to keep watch at night, but how come they were all sleeping soundly? And they were sleeping so soundly
He looked around and saw that Xiao Junyan and the little girl were gone. He couldn't help but shout, "Junyan? Junyan?"
"Second Young Master?" The two young men also woke up, rubbed their temples, and felt a little dizzy.
After calling around but no one showed up, Xiao Junheng looked at them and asked, "Why did you all sleep so soundly last night?"
"I was on night patrol in the second half of last night, but I don't know how I fell asleep." A young man scratched his head embarrassedly. He didn't expect that he would fall asleep.
"Where are the young master and that child?" another young man asked in surprise when he saw that the two people were not around.
Xiao Junheng felt a little strange, looked at the two of them, and said, "You go back first! I also want to go back and find out which family the child belongs to."
"Second Young Master, do you suspect that she is not from our Xiao family?" the two young men asked in surprise.
"I was a little suspicious to begin with, but after I met Jun Yan, he said he brought us here, so I didn't ask any more questions. But now, it's obvious that we were all drugged and fainted. Jun Yan couldn't have used drugs on us, it could only be that child, so I have to go back and figure out what's going on." Xiao Junheng said, his brows furrowed.
