Chapter 266 The Arrow's Position Was a Bit Awkward
Before Su Nuannuan could react to what was happening, Jinse swiftly and unexpectedly picked her up, lightly touched the ground, and flew to a thick tree nearby in a few leaps.
Su Nuannuan was startled by this sudden action, her heart almost leaping out of her throat. After she finally managed to steady herself on the branch, she looked around, still shaken, and realized that Song Mama and Zhixiang had also been standing on the tree at some point.
Su Nuannuan leaned against the thick tree trunk, her legs trembling slightly. Her voice trembled with fear as she cautiously asked, "Jinse, what happened?"
It turns out that Su Nuannuan has always had a fear of heights. Standing on such a high tree branch, she didn't even have the courage to look down, fearing that she might fall off if she got dizzy.
Jinse's expression was solemn, her gaze still fixed on the distance. Without turning her head, she replied, "Your Majesty, a wild boar is coming this way." Her tone carried an undeniable seriousness.
After saying that, Jinse quickly turned her gaze to Granny Song and Zhixiang and said earnestly, "Granny Song, Zhixiang, protect Her Highness."
Jinse knew the wild boar's ferocity, and in order to better deal with the impending danger, she dared not be careless in the slightest. After speaking with Granny Song and Zhixiang, she secretly made a hand gesture that only her own people could understand. Then, she lightly touched a branch with her toes, and like a light swallow, she used her superb lightness skill to fly to another tree.
She moved swiftly and agilely through the woods, shifting from tree to tree, repeatedly moving towards the area where wild boars might be present, intending to first investigate their presence.
At this moment, Su Nuannuan clung tightly to the tree trunk, her heart still pounding. Watching Jinse's departing figure, she felt both worried and afraid, wondering what kind of crisis the sudden wild boar would bring them.
Meanwhile, Granny Song and Zhixiang stood guard intently beside Su Nuannuan, their eyes alert, ready to deal with any potential danger. The tranquility of the mountain forest was shattered by the impending crisis, and a tense and oppressive atmosphere filled the air.
Along with Jinse, Tingfeng and Tingyu, who were hiding in the shadows, also left, while the two guards arranged by Granny Song stayed behind to continue protecting Su Nuannuan.
Jinse, Tingfeng, and Tingyu moved like three swift lightning bolts, quickly traversing the mountains and forests. Soon, they arrived at the area where wild boars were suspected to roam.
The three of them each found a large tree in a different location, like three cheetahs hiding in the shadows.
As they observed intently, two enormous wild boars suddenly appeared in their line of sight. Covered in coarse bristles, their eyes fierce and volatile, they were locked in a fierce struggle, emitting muffled roars. Their bodies collided, raising clouds of dust, as if the entire forest was awestruck by their sheer force. And as they fought, the two boars slowly moved towards Jinse's location.
When Tingfeng saw the two wild boars fighting fiercely, he was immediately alarmed. His brows furrowed tightly. He quickly stretched out his hand and made a gesture, asking Jinse what to do next.
Upon seeing Tingfeng's gesture, Jinse quickly began to ponder. Her gaze was calm and resolute as she carefully observed the fight between the two wild boars.
She knew that the two wild boars were currently locked in a fierce battle, their strength and momentum at their peak. If they were to act rashly at this moment, they could easily find themselves in danger. Therefore, she decisively gave Tingfeng and Tingyu a "wait" gesture.
Meanwhile, the two wild boars were still fighting fiercely. They attacked each other with their sharp tusks and rammed into each other with their powerful bodies, their roars echoing throughout the forest. Jinse, Tingfeng, and Tingyu, on the other hand, quietly hid in the trees, waiting for the best opportunity.
Seeing the two wild boars fighting each other rapidly approaching Jinse and her group with unstoppable momentum, Jinse's brows furrowed instantly, her eyes revealing a hint of vigilance and decisiveness.
She carefully observed the two wild boars. Although they were covered in dust and blood, they were still energetic and strong, clearly having plenty of strength to continue fighting. Jinse knew that if she rashly went forward now, it would be tantamount to courting death.
Without hesitation, she raised her hand and decisively gestured for retreat. Tingfeng and Tingyu, who had been closely watching Jinse's movements, reacted swiftly upon seeing her gesture. Like agile cheetahs, their toes lightly touched the branches, and their bodies shot towards a thick tree behind them like arrows. Their figures darted through the trees, creating a soft rustling sound.
After they successfully created a safe distance from the two wild boars that were still fighting each other, Jinse and her companions did not let their guard down. Instead, they continued to quietly hide in the tree, intently observing the wild boars' movements.
Fortunately, they were currently quite far from Su Nuannuan and the others. Jinse secretly rejoiced; if they were too close, and the wild boar charged towards the Empress and her companions, they would have intervened without hesitation, no matter how dangerous the situation. Even if it meant getting injured themselves, they would never allow the Empress to be in danger.
Time ticked by, and Jinse and her companions initially thought they needed to retreat further to ensure their absolute safety. However, at that moment, the battle took a dramatic turn.
One of the wild boars was clearly exhausted; its steps began to falter, and blood flowed continuously from its wounds, staining its originally black fur dark red. Every step it took was incredibly difficult, and finally, with a painful roar, the wounded boar collapsed with a thud, the ground trembling slightly at its fall.
The other victorious boar, however, showed no signs of relief. It was panting heavily, its chest heaving, and its thick limbs trembling slightly; clearly, the fierce battle had drained its energy. Jinse keenly seized this opportune moment. A glint of excitement flashed in her eyes; she knew the time to act had finally arrived.
She quickly raised her hand and gestured for Tingfeng and Tingyu to "take action." Upon seeing the gesture, Tingfeng and Tingyu immediately sprang into action.
They each drew their bows and arrows, pulling them to their fullest extent. The three of them simultaneously released their bowstrings, and three arrows, whistling through the air, shot like meteors toward the still panting wild boar.
Two arrows each hit a wild boar in one eye, while the third arrow landed in a rather awkward spot.
