Chapter 219 The General Doesn’t Want Power, He Just Wants to Fall in Love 11
After finishing the things here, he took it out to play with it, hitting the leaves several times with stones, which was very easy.
Zhou Ningxu touched the slingshot and liked it very much. Only those who have made a slingshot themselves know how difficult it is to find a suitable branch.
Qi Jin's gloomy gaze fell on him, very unhappy.
It was his, but he couldn't say it, otherwise he couldn't explain why he had a slingshot and why he was there shooting birds.
If he confessed everything, wouldn't his image in front of Duan Ci for so many days be ruined?
He hasn't tricked the person yet, so he can't let himself be discovered. He can only steal the slingshot later.
Duan Ci's attention has always been on his wife, and his subtle emotions were discovered by Duan Ci.
He immediately understood what was going on and took a step forward towards Zhou Ningxu.
When Zhou Ningxu saw him coming, he greeted him with a smile and showed off his slingshot skills.
"General, you see, this stone of mine can hit several leaves at once."
He pulled the slingshot and the stone shot out, piercing through several leaves and falling far away. The birds resting on the tree were startled and fled in all directions.
He raised his chin slightly, very satisfied with the noise made by his small stone.
But before he could play for a while, Duan Ci confiscated his slingshot.
Zhou Ningxu looked at his empty hands, then looked at the slingshot in Duan Ci's hand, his eyes widened with resentment and confusion.
"Brother Duan, what are you doing?"
He reached out to grab the slingshot, but because of Duan Ci's identity, he didn't dare to take it directly.
The pair of hands stretched out into the air, stretched out and retracted, looking as if they had nowhere to put them.
Duan Ci smiled gently, but what he said made Zhou Ningxu feel cold inside.
"I just forgot to take it. This thing has something important to do, and I can't let you break it."
After he finished speaking, without looking at Zhou Ningxu's expression, which was as if the sky had fallen, he turned and left, his back cold and resolute.
Zhou Ningxu covered his heart with one hand, stretched out the other hand as if to retain him, and shook his head with a sad face.
"Oh! My little slingshot, no, don't leave me!"
"My condolences, Vice General Zhou!"
Another person who was on good terms with him, seeing this, hugged him and comforted him with an exaggerated facial expression.
It would be fine if no one acted with him, and he would calm down after a while. But once someone cooperated with him, he would start acting and would directly pull the person to make hesitant accusations.
Duan Ci was too lazy to watch the two actors acting, their acting was fake and out of tune. There was no skill, just emotion, it was very exaggerated.
When Qi Jin saw that he had taken the slingshot back, he felt much better and was no longer in a hurry to come back.
After seeing that the army had rested well, Duan Ci gave the order to continue the march.
Qi Jin looked at the horse pacing continuously and jumped on it without hesitation.
But not long after it got on, the horse began to move frantically, and suddenly straightened its upper body.
Qi Jin was startled, but fortunately he reacted quickly and held the reins tightly, so he was not thrown off.
Duan Ci noticed that there was something wrong with the horse under him, as if it had eaten something it shouldn't have and was a little crazy.
He wanted to go over and pull the man off the horse, but the horse didn't give him the chance. It stamped wildly and then rushed towards him.
"Get out of the way, General!"
Qi Jin was frightened and pulled the reins, trying to make the horse avoid Duan Ci.
He didn't intend to hurt Duan Ci. If someone really had to get hurt, he would be the only one.
Duan Ci dodged nimbly, and the horse didn't hit anyone. It didn't insist anymore and ran out with Qi Jin on its back.
Duan Ci immediately mounted his horse upon seeing this and hit the horse's butt with the whip. The horse neighed and rushed in the direction Qi Jin left like an arrow.
He only left behind his back and some hurried words.
"Ning Xu, take care of this place. I'll go and bring His Highness back."
"it is good."
Zhou Ningxu clasped his fists in response, and when he looked in the direction where Duan Ci and the others had left, they were no longer there.
The expression on his face was rare and serious, as he thought about Qi Jin's horse suddenly going crazy.
He felt that this was done deliberately by someone who wanted to harm His Royal Highness the Ninth Prince.
The first person he targeted was Lu Yan. When Duan Ci went after Qi Jin, he asked someone to investigate what was going on.
On the muddy road, the sound of hurried horse hooves could be heard chasing each other. Two horses appeared one after the other, and the horse in front was charging forward recklessly, acting extremely crazy.
The young man's elegant clothes were rustled by the wind, and his hair fluttered in disarray. With an indifferent expression, he pulled the reins to control the horse, asking it to run as fast as possible on the road, and run slowly so that the people behind him would not fall behind.
His calm look didn't seem like a mad horse, but rather like a young man riding a horse, enjoying the wind and freedom.
He was calm and composed, but the other figure chasing him seemed to be coming towards him without delaying for even a moment.
