The carriage suddenly stopped.
"The assassin is here?" Ling'er looked at Xiao Yizi nervously.
Xiao Yizi immediately became alert, gently lifted the corner of the car curtain and looked out to observe the surrounding situation.
"What's wrong?" Ling'er asked softly.
Xiao Yizi suddenly changed back to the playful smile he had just now, and said, "It's okay, it's just that we've reached the foot of the mountain. I'm afraid the carriage can't go any further."
"Once you enter the mountain, the danger will be closer." Ling'er sighed secretly.
"Don't worry, sister, I'm here!" Xiao Yizi said seriously.
Ling'er nodded, feeling that the boy in front of him had suddenly grown up, giving him a lot of security.
"Ling'er, pack your bags and come down! We're at the foot of the mountain." Zhong Gong's voice came from outside.
Ling'er picked up the baggage and got out of the carriage with Xiao Yizi.

Ji Cangyu and his group walked towards the mountain, and then the five people hiding in the darkness appeared.
These five people were all dressed in black and masked.
One of the slender men in black said: "Master Ji's martial arts skills are too high, we should not follow him so close, so as not to scare the snake."
A man in black on the side said: "Captain Meng is right. The second master also told us that with Master Ji at the side, we don't need to take action. We can just follow him from a distance."
It turns out that the slender man in black is Meng Fei, and the man in black talking to him is Yang Rui.
Another man in black asked: "Where did Brother Qi go?"
Yang Rui replied: "Second Master went to set up an ambush early and will meet us later."
"What kind of ambush did Brother Qi arrange?" Meng Fei asked.
"Second Master didn't say anything, and I didn't ask either." Yang Rui shook his head and said, "Let's just do our part."

After walking for a long time on the mountain road, Linger was out of breath.
Ji Cangyu looked at Xu Jun, Zhong Gong and Zhong Long. Although they were not out of breath, they were already tired.
Ji Cangyu said: "Everyone is tired, let's take a rest here!"
"Finally I can rest!" Zhong Long happily found a shady place under a tree and asked Ling'er to sit down and rest.
Ji Cangyu looked at Xiao Yizi, who had been following Ling'er silently, and curled his lips. Unexpectedly, this young man was young but had good physical strength. He walked such a long way without panting at all.
Little did they know that Xiao Yizi was always on guard along the way, secretly boosting his energy to make his hearing more sensitive. This consumes internal energy, and when you climb up the mountain, your feet feel light, which saves a lot of energy, and naturally you don't feel tired.
Ji Cangyu secretly observed Xiao Yizi, and then noticed the aura emanating from his body. This aura shocked Ji Cangyu. This young man's martial arts skills were not low!
"Dad, I'm hungry." Xu Jun said suddenly.
"I brought some dry food. You can fill your stomach first. When we reach the top of the mountain, we will roast game over the fire." Ji Cangyu said.
"I don't eat those, you don't know." Young Master Xu Jun's temper broke out.
Ji Cangyu sighed helplessly and compromised: "Okay then! It's almost noon, so let's light a fire on the spot!"
Zhong Gong and Zhong Long looked at each other, as if they were no longer surprised by this situation.
Ji Cangyu divided the work and said: "Zhong Gong, Zhong Long, you two go pick up some firewood, and then go catch some fish in the stream that you just passed by."
"Okay." After Zhong Gong said that, he took his brother and left.
Ji Cangyu turned around and said to the five servants: "Please tidy up the surroundings."
After Zhong Gong and Zhong Long walked away, Xu Juncai said, "I don't want to eat fish today."
Ji Cangyu was stunned for a moment before advising: "Jun'er, it's better to be outside than at home. It's good if you can fill your stomach."
"Then I won't eat." Xu Jun frowned, walked to the side and sat down.
"Hey!" Ji Cangyu sighed and looked at Ling'er and Xiao Yizi.
Ling'er and Xiao Yizi were communicating with their eyes, understanding that Xu Jun wanted to drive Ji Cangyu away.
"Okay then! I'll go hunt some prey, and you stay here to protect Ling'er." Ji Cangyu couldn't bear to see Xu Jun starve, so he compromised again.
"Dad and I will go together!" Xu Jun stood up happily.
"This..." Ji Cangyu glanced at Ling'er worriedly, but then thought that Xiao Yizi was very good and nothing would happen to him, so he turned to Ling'er and said, "Ling'er, Jun'er and I went to hunt some prey and came back. We're nearby, if anything happens, just call."
"Okay." Ling'er nodded.
Ji Cangyu said to the servants again: "Protect the safety of Miss Ling'er and this little friend."
"Yes, Master." The servants responded in unison.
Ji Cangyu then took his bow and arrow and left with Xu Jun.

Meng Fei in the dark was a little anxious when he saw Ji Cangyu and Xu Jun leaving Ling'er and the others.
Just at this moment, Qi Yang came.
Qi Yang was also dressed in black at this time, but his face was not covered.
Meng Fei quickly reported the situation: "Brother Qi, the two disciples of Master Ji have been sent to collect firewood, while Master Ji and Mr. Ji have gone hunting nearby. At the moment, apart from brother Xiao Yizi and Miss Ling'er, there are only a few martial arts An ordinary servant."
"Will the two disciples of Master Ji encounter something unexpected?" Yang Rui was a little worried.
"They are Ji Cangyu's disciples, and they are not Xu Jun's targets. There is no need for Xu Jun to attack them. At most, it is just to trap them." Qi Yang said.
"Then what should we do now?" Meng Fei asked.
"Brother Meng, come with me. Yang Rui, you take the other three brothers here to protect Miss Ling'er." Qi Yang arranged.
"Okay." Everyone responded.

Looking at Ji Cangyu and Xu Jun from a distance, Qi Yang said to Meng Fei: "When Ji Cangyu leaves later, you can follow him. His martial arts are unfathomable, don't let him find you. Until he comes back I want to find Xu Jun here, show up again and lead him to Miss Ling'er and the others."
Meng Fei nodded.
Qi Yang warned again: "If you are caught up by Ji Cangyu, find a way to escape, and you must not be reluctant to fight!"
---
Away from the path, Ji Cangyu paid careful attention to the movements around him, looking for prey.
Xu Jun took out his bow and arrow and aimed in all directions.
Xu Jun finally found a satisfied sparrow. He curled his lips, drew his bow and released an arrow. The little bird screamed and fell straight down.
"I hit it!" Xu Jun shouted in excitement.
Ji Cangyu felt happy about this. Although Xu Jun cannot develop strong martial arts skills, his archery skills do not seem to be inferior to others.
"Dad, I'm going to pick up the prey." Xu Jun said and took a step forward.
Ji Cangyu stopped him and said, "Don't go there. That's the canyon. It's not far away. If you want to go there to pick up prey, you have to walk down a steep slope." Ji Cangyu was quite familiar with the nearby terrain.
"But that was the first prey I shot." Xu Jun said anxiously.
"First time?" Ji Cangyu was a little surprised. He originally thought that Xu Jun's archery skills were good, but he didn't expect this. Was it just a coincidence this time?
"Yes!" Xu Jun said sadly, "I didn't expect that I didn't even see the prey."
"This..." Ji Cangyu looked at the direction of the canyon, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "You wait here while dad goes to pick up the prey."
"Dad, please be careful." Xu Jun said hypocritically, but he showed a cold smile from an angle that Ji Cangyu couldn't see.
