CHAPTER 5Was Discovered, Run Quickly
“Aa….., finally I can take a bath.” Jing Yue sighed, looking at the surrounding; she couldn’t found the least bit of human trace at all. She efficiently took her whole clothes off, stepping forward to soak herself in the stream, allowing the stream’s water dripping across her skin.
Jing Yue cheerfully played and swam inside the stream until she felt a little bit cold; she reluctantly came out from the stream. From inside the wrapped up bundle, she took out a clean clothes for change. Taking the dirty clothes that had been washed clean in the stream, she placed it on top of the tree trunk to dry; thinking that she’d wait and took it when she returned home.
Soon after, she jumped to the top of the tree; complying with the moonlight, she lied down on top of the tree trunks, waiting for the arrival of tomorrow. However, when Jing Yue just fell asleep for a moment, suddenly from below the tree came out a sound of things moves. Jing Yue who had always been a light sleeper suddenly opened her eyes, carefully moved and leaned her body to see the lower part of the tree.
“Master, drink a little water.” borrowing speckles of moonlight, Jing Yue saw that it seemed that there were three people below. Furthermore, there was a faint smell of blood drifting in the air; it seemed the injuries they suffered were not little.
“All the people has been shaken off?” another hoa.r.s.e voice came through; it seemed as if he was extremely exhausted.
“Has been shaken off, this place is very remote.” a man helped another to sit down; another man was inspecting the surrounding. Jing Yue who had been sitting on top of the tree was looking at the expression of the man patrolling the surrounding; her heart slightly trembled, silently mumbling: please don’t see her clothes….
At this time, Jing Yue’s full of regret her intestine turned green. There was nothing wrong with her, why didn’t she bring the clothes a little higher?
This is just right!
“Master, you see, there is someone’s clothes here!” right at the time Jing Yue was thoroughly annoyed at herself, that man patrolling around really found the clothes that Jing Yue hung dry on the side.
“Could it be that this is left behind by someone during the day?”
“No, that person is still here.” the person’s recognized as master expression immediately turned cold, propped his body up surveying the surrounding. A hard to describe strained air spreaded, Jing Yue tightly held her breath, didn’t even dare to make the smallest voice.
At this moment, time seemed to be frozen, all the bugs’ voices around disappeared, Jing Yue’s body went rigid, easily letting out breath could no longer be done as easy. Just at the moment Jing Yue’s tension was increasing, suddenly from another part of the tree trunk came a hissing sound.
Jing Yue’s body went rigid, she raised her eyes. In a glance the small snake coiling itself on the branch ahead could already be seen. That hissing sound made Jing Yue’s blood run cold in a flash, Jing Yue wasn’t afraid of this snake, it was that the sound this wiggling snake produced would absolutely attracted the attention of people below.
“Ka….” that small coiled snake on the tree trunk came towards Jing Yue, didn’t know which brittle branch it ran into, it made a high crisp sound. Suddenly Jing Yue sensed a powerful wind came from below, that small snake’s head was directly cut off, Jing Yue’s head was hanging for a split second, just in time to meet the gaze of a pair ice-cold eyes.
Shoot!!!!
Jing Yue’s whole body jerked, nearly without any kind of hesitation, her figure suddenly jumped up. Whirling her body to avoid daggers flying towards her, her body went missing inside another tree top. Almost without stopping, Jing Yue’s arm swung across, flinging herself suddenly about ten metres away. Holding her breath for several leaps, she disappeared into the dense jungle right away.
“Xing Yi, no need to chase.” a man originally wanted to chase after Jing Yue, but was stopped by the man leaning on the tree trunk.
“Master, what if that is the second prince’s people?” the man called Xing Yi frowned, turned his body around and asked.
“It isn’t.” the man also didn’t explain much of anything, rather he slightly closed his eyes, leaning against the top of the tree trunk to rest. That slight wrinkled appeared on his eyebrows, it was as if the man was really in pain.
