Early the next morning, with only a trace of fish belly visible in the sky, Nangong Yuanyi woke up slightly.
When he woke up, he didn't see An Xiyue's figure. Nangong Yuanyi suddenly jumped up and cursed secretly: "Damn it, why did he fall asleep?"
Nangong Yuanyi caught a glimpse of a small fire that had not yet burned out on the grass, and a pile of medicinal materials piled close to where he slept. He didn't recognize them all, but he knew some, all because he had been with him before. Yu Wenjing stayed together and was influenced by what he heard and what he saw.
There was a circle of yellow powder on the ground, and Nangong Yuanyi recognized it. It was sulfur, which was used to expel snakes, insects, rats, and ants in the wild. It must have been arranged by An Xiyue before he left.
Nangong Yuanyi's heart was full of mixed feelings. A little bit of ant poison would make him fall asleep. Moreover, Xuanyuan Ming's attitude towards An Xiyue last night was very subtle.
Nangong Yuanyi slowly clenched his fists and secretly made up his mind. This time when he went back, he would have to re-examine things that he usually didn't care about.
Nangong Yuanyi searched around and finally saw An Xiyue squatting behind a big tree, staring intently at a cave in front, holding a sickle tightly in his hand, as if waiting for something.
Nangong Yuanyi tapped her toes, soared into the air, and carried An Xiyue up the branch.
An Xiyue turned his eyes and met Nangong Yuanyi's eyes, with a bright smile on his face: "You wake up, there are rabbits there." If An Xiyue hadn't given Nangong Yuanyi the acupuncture last night, I don't know if he would still be there She was suffering. She originally thought about the delicious game in the mountains and caught it to replenish Nangong Yuanyi's body, but she still found nothing and watched the rabbit run into the rabbit hole.
Nangong Yuanyi suddenly made a silent gesture, took An Xiyue to a higher place, and turned to stare at the small cave, "Wait a minute, they will come out to look for food."
A quarter of an hour later, there was finally movement at the entrance of the small cave. A gray-white rabbit with long ears stretched out its head timidly. The rabbit was very smart and waited for a few minutes to make sure there was no danger before running out.
An Xiyue saw that Nangong Yuanyi had only cut off one leaf of the tree, so he hit the rabbit. Then Nangong Yuanyi flew down from the tree with An Xiyue.
An Xiyue was amazed. She had been waiting for the rabbit for a long time, but Nangong Yuanyi had done it with just a small leaf.
"Oh, look at her belly. She's pregnant. I wonder if she's hurt them." An Xiyue's heart would become particularly soft when she saw pregnant people or animals.
An Xiyue quickly checked the rabbit and said, "Fortunately, the mother rabbit's belly was not hurt." An Xiyue's eyes were full of love.
Only An Xiyue herself had experienced the pain of losing a child in her previous life. An Xiyue's eyes were instantly filled with sadness and resentment, and Nangong Yuanyi happened to catch it.
Nangong Yuanyi could not tell that the rabbit was pregnant no matter what. Seeing An Xiyue put the rabbit at the entrance of the cave again, he said: "This cave is very deep. There should be other rabbits. Let's wait."
"Forget it, what if it's the little rabbit's father who's waiting? Wouldn't that be the same as killing the mother rabbit and their babies?"
Nangong Yuanyi frowned, "According to what you said, all the rabbits in this mountain are its relatives, so we can't catch them."
An Xiyue added: "In two months, Mother Rabbit will give birth to a litter of little rabbits. They will definitely need Father Rabbit's careful care to survive. Without Father Rabbit, would it be equivalent to killing their whole family?"
An Xiyue placed the wild fruits she had picked at the entrance of the cave, then left. She raised her lips towards Nangong Yuanyi and smiled sweetly: "There is no food prepared for you now."
At this time, An Xiyue's stomach growled unsatisfactorily. She stayed up all night last night to take care of Nangong Yuanyi. Later, she was really worried about his ant poison, so she searched around again, but couldn't find the legendary dragon. Silk grass, who said it is everywhere in Nanshan.
Suddenly, Nangong Yuanyi jumped up again, and suddenly there were a few more bird eggs in his hand, "You can eat them by warming them over fire. This is more nutritious."
"Don't carry out all its relatives and friends again, otherwise we will all starve."
An Xiyue rolled her eyes. She was not a masochist. She was so hungry that her chest was touching her back.
An Xiyue didn't know whether to tell Nangong Yuanyi about her entry into the phantom circle. She used tree branches to make a fire but hesitated to speak.
"I had a very strange dream yesterday. In the dream, I met her." Nangong Yuanyi suddenly said.
"She?" An Xi Yuening asked.
Nangong Yuanyi seemed to have mustered up the courage, stared at An Xiyue and said slowly: "It is Princess Lingjing of Miaojiang. My father told me that it was Princess Lingjing who harmed the late emperor." Nangong Yuanyi's eyebrows showed a look of confusion, mixed with Painfully: "Princess Lingjing is my enemy of the Nangong family."
"Did Prince Yu tell you?" An Xiyue didn't expect that Nangong Yuanyi would suddenly tell her something he didn't want to mention.
Nangong Yuanyi probably had never had anyone to talk to, so he nodded with complicated and forbearing eyes.
"Elder brother is like father. King Yu has cared about you and loved you for so many years. He has raised you like a biological son. In the future, you will inherit the title of Prince of Prince Yu. You are very touched, so you are willing to trust him and rely on him. This I understand that." An Xiyue's voice was calm and calm, which gave Nangong Yuanyi enough courage.
"The first mistake was made in Miao territory, when Princess Lingjing seduced the late emperor..."
An Xiyue stopped him and said, "You really think so." An Xiyue looked at Nangong Yuanyi with cold eyes.
She knew that he was going to say that she was an illegitimate child who could not see the light of day, and she could only survive in another identity.
Nangong Yuanyi suddenly stared at An Xiyue dumbfounded, only to hear An Xiyue slowly and angrily say: "I think the most pitiful one is Princess Lingjing of Miaojiang. Huh, everyone in the world is used to pushing all the faults to themselves. For the deceased, just because they had no chance to defend themselves."
Nangong Yuanyi had never heard these remarks before and was so stunned that he didn't know how to answer. Ever since he knew his life experience, he would come to Nanshan every year just because there was that person in the imperial mausoleum at the bottom of Nanshan, but her status was so humble that she only Being able to be buried inside as a humble palace maid, Nangong Yuanyi sneered, not buried, but buried with him.
At this time, I only felt a strange fragrance in the air. The fragrance was very strong, so strong that it made people feel dizzy.
An Xiyue and Nangong Yuanyi looked at each other and quickly covered their mouths and noses.
I saw a plant growing quickly from the crack in the stone. The flowers were so bright and red that it made people's hair stand on end. There were no green leaves on the whole body. It was growing at a terrifying speed and was attacking the two of them. Come.
The two said in unison: "Piranha."
