Chapter 47 We’ll definitely catch a big one this time!A group of big men who practiced martial arts were much stronger than ordinary people. They gathered together and put all their strength into it. Soon, they expanded the small pit that was half a meter long and one meter deep into a big pit that was three meters long and two meters deep. Then spread a piece of cloth, sprinkle some thin soil and dead branches and leaves, and a simple trap is ready. Yun Chuhuan personally carried the "There is a trap here" sign that Yun Shu had made earlier and inserted it to the side. It was clearly just this one move, but after finishing it he put his hands on his hips with a sense of accomplishment, as if the trap in front of him was his own masterpiece. "I have a feeling!" He confidently made the following statement: "This trap will definitely catch a big one!" Guards: "..." But there really isn't anything big here. Yun Shu: “.” It will be big indeed. If she remembered correctly, the incident happened to the prince on the first day of the autumn hunt! "I also think this trap will yield some rewards today."
Following Yun Chuhuan's suggestion, Yun Shu nodded in agreement and suggested: "I just rode for such a long time and I am a little tired. Why don't we leave this path first and go around to a more secluded place nearby, eat something and rest there, and wait and see if we can really catch any prey?" "I agree!" Yun Chuhuan nodded and agreed without hesitation, then turned around and went to find the guard who led the way: "You should know where the most suitable hiding place is nearby, right?" "Yes." The guards hurriedly bowed: "Your Highnesses, please follow me!" …… The group turned back along the path and followed the guard who led the way. They soon came to a natural barrier formed by dense vines. If people outside didn't look carefully, they would never notice the presence of Yun Shu and his group. But Yun Shu and the others could easily see the situation outside from their high vantage point. Yun Chuhuan sat beside Yun Shu and ate some dried meat with satisfaction. On the other side, inside the cave, the eldest prince's men finally relaxed - "Are you sure that the Fifth Princess and the Sixth Prince have left this mountain?" "My subordinate is sure!" The man in black who was asked said firmly: "Just now, the Sixth Prince and his companions came down the mountain from that road. I did not dare to follow them too closely, fearing that I would expose my tracks and cause trouble for my master. In addition, I expected that the group would return along the same route, so I waited near the exit of that road. Just now, I saw with my own eyes the Sixth Prince and his men coming out from that path."
"Ah." The leader of the men in black nodded upon hearing this. This mountain is actually not very big. The Fifth Princess and the Sixth Prince took so long to climb it that they must have reached the cliff at the top of the mountain. Now that we have returned the same way, we must leave. It's impossible that they returned along the same route and then climbed up again from another place? Who could be so boring! Quickly putting this little episode behind them, the group of men in black continued to lurk in the cave, waiting for the prince to arrive. The prince did not disappoint these people. Under the silent guidance of a spy planted by the eldest prince in the team, the prince soon appeared at the foot of the mountain with his men. "This mountain seems a little small." "Your Highness, this mountain is indeed not very big, but foxes and deer often appear on the mountain." The spy leader bowed his head and complimented: "Your Highness is truly a child of destiny. He must have extraordinary luck. Maybe he can even encounter a pair of deer this time!" "Oh?" The prince was indeed aroused. He had participated in the autumn hunt for several years before, so he naturally knew that the wild beasts had already been penned in another area. Last year, he was ambitious to hunt a tiger and surpass the eldest prince so that his father would take notice of him. As a result, no tiger was hunted, but two guards were killed. The situation at that time was so dangerous that it even left him with some trauma. He did not plan to venture into the wild beast area again this year unless it was necessary. And if we exclude those ferocious beasts, the deer can be considered a pretty good prey. Looking up at the quiet hill in front of him, a gleam of determination flashed across the prince's eyes. He whipped his horse whip and headed up the mountain first: "drive!" "drive!!" The guards behind him also rode their horses to catch up. Only the spy deliberately fell to the last, and when no one was paying attention, he pulled out a special bone flute from his collar and blew it hard - There is no sound. In other words, people can't hear any sound. But at the same time, inside the cave, a trained little black dog suddenly ran to the entrance of the cave, straightened its neck and looked far in a certain direction.
"coming!" The men in black in the cave looked at each other and tightened their swords. The leader of the men in black pulled the rope on the white "divine deer" with one hand, walked quickly to the entrance of the cave and stared at the direction of the mountain. After about three minutes, he took out his dagger and cut the rope. The "divine deer" regained its freedom and ran towards the path without stopping. “It’s the sacred deer!” A sharp-eyed guard beside the prince exclaimed: "This is a sign of good fortune from heaven! We congratulate His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!" “Hahahahaha good!” The prince also saw the "divine deer" leaping lightly in the jungle, and he was delighted: "You all should follow me and bring this auspicious sign back to present to our father! Remember, do not hurt the sacred deer at all!" Auspicious sign from heaven! Now he wants to see how the eldest prince can compete with him! The prince rushed out first, unaware that he had inadvertently stepped onto a path without any forks. Click! A piece of dead branch was broken by a horse's hoof that happened to pass by. Behind the vines, Yun Shu stopped drinking water and said softly: "Is someone coming?" "Princess, there is a small group of people heading up the mountain." The guard beside him listened carefully for a moment and also lowered his voice: "There are about ten people." "Ten people..." That should be the prince and his men, right? Yun Shu thoughtfully handed the water bag to the guard, then stood up and walked to the vine. Yun Chuhuan also stood up, speaking in a very arrogant tone: "Who is it? Isn't it obvious that they are coming here to steal our prey? "One of you should go there quickly and drive all the people away! Just say that this mountain has been contracted by me!" "Don't listen to him!" Yun Shu glanced at him speechlessly: “Hunting is all about ability. Besides, have you never thought about what if the person coming is your eldest brother or your second brother, the crown prince? Can you drive it away too?" (End of this chapter)
