Chapter 65

Autumn is a good season for hunting. Cao Shiyuan led a team to hunt in the countryside today, accompanied by Meng Jun, Cao Tianheng, Jing Tong and Yu Ji.

The subordinates blew the horn and led the hounds to search around.

A wild deer came into their sight.

"Wrap around." Cao Shiyuan said in a low voice, gesturing to everyone.

According to Cao Shiyuan's instructions, the crowd surrounded the wild deer separately. When the point arrived, Meng Jun fired an arrow first, Jing Tong glanced at him, and quickly followed him with another arrow.

With two swishes, Jing Tong's arrow was one step behind Meng Jun's, but it was faster and fiercer. With a bang, Meng Jun's arrow was pierced by Jing Tong's arrow, split in two and fell to the ground.

Jing Tong's arrow was as powerful as a broken bamboo, and shot straight at the wild deer after passing through the arrow. The wild deer screamed and fell down in response to the arrow.

Today, it was Jing Tong who deliberately wanted to embarrass Meng Jun. Who told Meng Jun to make things difficult for her on a daily basis, and if she didn't return the favor, wouldn't she have earned her reputation as Jing Demon King.

Meng Jun looked disdainful and resentful, Cao Shiyuan valued Zhuang Lixuan more and more, and his position in Wuying Valley had begun to waver.

Woo... woo... the horn sounded again.

"Valley Master! There are discoveries over there!" The men shouted.

"Okay, let's go!" Cao Shiyuan rode away with everyone on horseback.

Jing Tong didn't go with him. If it wasn't for gaining Cao Shiyuan's trust as soon as possible, Jing Tong would never have participated in this hunting game. She loved animals since she was a child. This kind of game is simply a kind of torture for Jing Tong.

Jing Tong glanced back, Yu Ji was behind her, thinking about it, since that kite flying, Jing Tong has never tried to be alone with her again, and only met a few times at banquets on weekdays.

Yu Ji sat quietly on the horseback. Judging from Yu Ji's expression, it was obvious that she didn't like the current scene. Jing Tong was thinking how a woman who loves dancing music would like to run through the jungle under the scorching sun. Cao Shiyuan insisted It was really difficult for her to pull her over.

Sensing Jing Tong's gaze, Yu Ji nodded and smiled in return.

Jing Tong took the rein and slowly approached her. Upon closer inspection, she found that Yu Ji seemed to be thinner than when they met last time, and the usual heavy makeup seemed to cover her pale face.

Suddenly heard a strange movement in front, whoosh, accompanied by the sound of the wind, Jing Tong reacted instantly, because there are often missed arrows in the hunting scene, people who often hunt know how to avoid it, but Yu Ji is just a delicate girl. The woman was out of her mind for some reason at this time.

Jing Tong hurriedly shouted to her: "Be careful!" Before she had time to think, Jing Tong immediately turned her wrist, and with a squeak, the steel needle hidden in the fire pattern wristband was quickly sent out.

Ding……

The steel needle hit the arrow accurately, but unfortunately the arrow came too fast and too hard, the steel needle did not hit the sharp arrow but only changed the direction of the arrow.

The sharp arrow brushed against Yu Ji's left shoulder, she let out a muffled snort, she was not overly panicked, instead the white horse under her was startled and jumped backwards.

Seeing that Yu Ji was about to lose her balance and be thrown off the horse, Jing Tong immediately jumped up from the horse's back, put her foot on the saddle, leaned over to Yu Ji's side and put her arms around her waist.

After stabilizing her footsteps, Jing Tong checked Yu Ji's injuries. Fortunately, her left shoulder was not injured, the sharp arrow just scratched her clothes, but Jing Tong suddenly found that there was a shallow scar on Yu Ji's shoulder. The scar is in the shape of a crescent moon, no matter its position or shape, it is the same as the scar on Xianqing back then. Xianqing was injured when she was pushed down on an iron hook by the pork guy. After the injury recovered, there was such a scar on her left shoulder.

Xianqing used to be very unhappy because of this scar, Jing Tong coaxed her at that time, the scar is actually not ugly at all, just like a petal printed on her shoulder, Xianqing smiled again, so at this time , Jing Tong will definitely not mistake the imprint on Yu Ji's shoulder.

"Xianqing! You are Xianqing!" Jing Tong grabbed Yu Ji's hand and said excitedly.

"What are you talking about? Let go of me first, please?" Yu Ji blinked her eyes, avoiding Jing Tong's eyes but not looking at her.

Jing Tong turned to support her shoulder, approached and asked, "Why are you so afraid of me? Where did the scar on your shoulder come from?"

"That's a birthmark, not a scar. I don't know what you're talking about. Let me go, you hurt me." Yu Ji struggled.

"I won't let you go, you are Xianqing, you are! Why don't you admit it? Have you forgotten me?" Jing Tong held Yu Ji's shoulders and refused to let go, because she was afraid that if she let go, the other party would come back again. Disappeared again, five years ago, it was too late to regret, but now Jing Tong will never let that scene happen again.

"How can you be so rude, I'm not who you said, you misunderstood." Yu Ji's tone was cold, she looked up at Jing Tong with a bit of anger in her eyes.

When meeting Yu Ji for the first time, that familiar feeling came out of Jing Tong's heart in an instant. This feeling has been buried deep in her heart for five years, and finally today, it showed signs of it again.

Jing Tong has already hinted at the previous temptation many times, but now, why doesn't she admit it?

But at this moment, all Jing Tong read from Yu Ji's eyes was indifference, and she asked blankly, "Did you really forget Jing'er?"

When Jing Tong was in a trance, Yu Ji raised her hand and pushed her away, frowned and said: "Mr. Zhuang, please respect yourself."

Just as Jing Tong was about to reveal her true identity, Cao Shiyuan rushed back with the team.

Cao Tianheng rushed over with a stride, raised his sleeves as if about to hit someone, and shouted at Jing Tong: "Zhuang Lixuan! How dare you be rude to Miss Yuji!"

"Tianheng!" Cao Shiyuan called to stop his son.

"Father! Didn't you see that! He's just a beast in clothes!" Cao Tianheng pointed at Jing Tong and said in disbelief.

"Stand aside!" Cao Shiyuan snapped.

Cao Tianheng was somewhat concerned about his father, but now he was too angry to vent his anger, and retreated to the side angrily.

Jing Tong remained silent the entire time, but her eyes never left Yu Ji's body.

"Lixuan, from what I've seen, what's the matter?" Cao Shiyuan asked Jing Tong.

Jing Tong glanced at Cao Shiyuan, then looked back at Yu Ji, her brows seemed to be filled with a trace of pain, and said: "Go back to Guzhu, Miss Yu Ji's horse was frightened just now, I just kept her safe, that's all .”

"Hmph! It's clearly a sophistry! Are you hugging so tightly! You clearly intend to belittle Miss Yuji!" Cao Tianheng said angrily at the top of his voice.

Jing Tong frowned and said, "I..."

"Actually, it's just as Mr. Zhuang said, Young Master Cao, you misunderstood. Mr. Zhuang didn't do anything rude." Yu Ji's eyes were deep, and she softly explained to Jing Tong.

Cao Shiyuan watched the two quietly from the side, he caught the subtle look in the eyes between the two of them, he thought he saw something, he smiled heartily, with a smile on his face, but there was a widowed look inside. cold.

"Lixuan, in fact, I have already known your intentions. Since you fall in love with Miss Yuji, then if Miss Yuji also likes you, I will make a decision for you. I don't know what you want, Miss Yuji?" Cao Shiyuan said early. To plan for this matter, Wanhuang Tower has already agreed to release the person, the key lies in Yu Ji's wishes.

Yu Ji's eyes were slightly surprised, she lowered her head in thought, then looked at Jing Tong again, and said hesitantly: "I..."

"Miss Yu Ji, please rest assured, I will live up to you in my lifetime." Jing Tong looked at Yu Ji, with a serious look in her soft eyes.

Yu Ji was at a loss when Jing Tong looked at her, she lowered her head, as if she was a little shy.

Cao Shiyuan narrowed his eyes, and there was a trace of calculation in his eyes, and he said happily: "Since the two are in love, then the owner of the valley will be a matchmaker for you, and the Mid-Autumn Festival will be in three days, why not add joy to the joy, festive festival, beautiful woman , haha... how about getting married in three days?"

"Okay! Lixuan thanked Gu Master for his kindness, and he will serve for Wuying Valley loyally in the future." Jing Tong agreed to Cao Shiyuan before Yu Ji was able to do so. Think about it later.

"Little girl..." Yu Ji was about to speak, but was interrupted by Cao Tianheng.

"Father! Then what should I do! I begged you to come back Yu Ji, and I liked her first. Why did you assign her to an outsider named Zhuang? I am your own son! Are you confused! Seeing that the woman he had been thinking about day and night was promised to Zhuang Lixuan in this way, Cao Tianheng burst into anger in an instant.

As soon as Cao Shiyuan heard the words "old fool", his eyes turned red immediately, "You bastard! You bastard!"

Cao Tianheng wanted to refute, but was stopped by Meng Jun, "Gu Master, young master, don't get angry, since this matter is related to Miss Yu Ji's life, why not let her make her own choice?"

Cao Shiyuan helped his heart and temporarily calmed down his anger, "Okay, since that's the case, let Miss Yuji make the choice." Then he turned to Yuji and asked, "Miss Yuji, what if my son and Lixuan are married?" Choose one of them, whatever you choose, but according to your wishes, I will be a matchmaker for you."

Yu Ji was in a dilemma, looking up at the two of them, one was the unreasonable prodigal son, and the other was the entangled Jing Tong, Yu Ji looked at Jing Tong's eyes, unable to speak for a long time.

Seeing Yu Ji staring at Jing Tong, Cao Shiyuan decided that this was a girl's shyness, and he didn't dare to show his feelings, so he said: "Since Miss Yu Ji has been selected, let's get married in three days!"

Without waiting for Yu Ji's response, Jing Tong said: "Thank you, owner!"

"Okay! Let's go back to the valley to celebrate!" Cao Shiyuan rode his horse and led the team back to Wuying Valley.

"Hmph! Good luck! Be careful in the future!" Cao Tianheng was very unlucky, so he left with a flick of his sleeves.

"Congratulations, brother Zhuang." Meng Jun said hypocritically.

"Thank you." Jing Tong responded to the blessings of the visitors one by one, waited for everyone to leave, and looked back at Yu Ji. She just stared into the distance blankly, and how much unknown was hidden in those empty eyes? story.

Jing Tong shouted softly: "Xian Qing..." Yu Ji ignored her, Jing Tong sighed, and continued in a different tone: "Miss Yu Ji, I have no intention of forcing you to marry me, but compared to Cao Tianheng, I Isn't it a better choice?"

"I can choose neither, no one can force me." Yu Ji said indifferently.

Jing Tong walked up to Yu Ji and forced her to look at her, "I just want to protect you, don't you want to stay in Wanhuang Tower for the rest of your life? Cao Tianheng has something wrong with you, you know, this is Cao Shiyuan's place, you It will not be safe to stay here for a day, as long as you agree to this marriage, I will protect you in the future, I can take you out of the Mist Shadow Valley, leave this place, and go to a place you are familiar with, where there are people you are familiar with, Familiar things, when I beg you, don't refuse me again, okay?"

The first time, when she was in Diewu Mountain, she refused to admit it, but now, Jing Tong will not let her go no matter what.

"What are you running away from?" Jing Tong asked.

"Then what are you obsessed with?" Yu Ji asked back.

The air seemed to stand still for a moment, and both of them were silent for a long time.

Yu Ji took out a copper coin, put it in front of Jing Tong, and said: "We leave it to the heavens to decide. If it comes up heads, I promise you, but if it comes up tails, you have to leave this place immediately and let you throw it."

"Okay." Jing Tong took the copper coin and tossed it up. She never felt how heavy a copper coin was, but the moment she held it in her palm, Jing Tong felt so heavy that she couldn't even hold it, because the copper coin carried the deepest hope. .

"I believe God has already arranged it." After saying that, Jing Tong opened her hand.

Seeing the result in her hand, Jing Tong smiled slightly, the dimples on her lips were extremely charming, and the emotion in her eyes seemed to have been accumulated for a long time.

Seeing the result, Yu Ji didn't make any response, her face was still indifferent, she turned around and was about to leave.

"I'll see you off." Jing Tong followed closely behind.

"No, I'll go back to Wanhuang Tower."

"Wait." Jing Tong untied her cloak and draped it over Yu Ji's body, and said softly, "The clothes on your shoulders are torn, it's not good to walk on the street, just wear it."

Yu Ji paused, but did not resist, pulled the cloak covering her body, and said softly: "Don't worry, since God's will, I will keep my promise, see you in three days, you... go back."

"Xian Qing..."

Jing Tong watched Yu Ji's back going further and further away, and her thoughts seemed to return to that day five years ago.

It was also autumn that day, and the sky was so blue.

After Jing Tong returned to Wuying Valley, she used the reason of returning to her hometown to worship her ancestors to resign from Cao Shiyuan for two days, because Jing Tong thought that there were some things that had to be clarified before the wedding.

Since An Zhifei arranged this plan, how could she not know that Xianqing is here?
