Thrown Into the Wolf’s Den! Zaizai Holds Space In His Hands To Survive the Disaster Year

At this moment, Qi Xiuwei felt ashamed.

Under Mo Lingwei's ruthless gaze, the scorching sun in the sky burned her back, making her feel tortured and embarrassed.

Shen Ningning never cared about her being close to Mo Lingwei, but actually understood her.

On the other hand, because I could not refuse my grandmother's request, I asked Shen Ningning again and again to forgive her behavior.

Qi Xiuwei blamed herself very much.

"I'm sorry, Your Highness the Crown Prince..."

Looking from Mo Lingwei's perspective, Qi Xiuwei lowered her head, her whole body trembling slightly due to suppressed emotions, and her voice was even lower, as if she was choking.

He didn't care if she was going to cry, though.

Mo Lingwei said the next sentence: "Go back early."

After he finished speaking, he walked towards Shen Ningning without looking at Qi Xiuwei.

The little girl was playing hide-and-seek with the children in the yard.

After two rounds of playing, some sweat had appeared on her fair forehead and her black hair was wet.

Seeing Mo Lingwei, she smiled brightly: "Brother, you came just in time. We want to play eagle and catch a chicken later. How about you be the chicken?"

The children around him were afraid of him, and they all ran very fast on their little legs and hid behind Shen Ningning.

Mo Lingwei frowned and was about to say childish.

However, seeing Shen Ningning's serious questioning face, he swallowed the words that were about to reach his lips.

"Okay." He agreed immediately.

Shen Ningning looked out the door: "Huh? Didn't Xiaowei come with you?"

"Oh, she just said she felt a little uncomfortable and might have to go back early."

"Is she feeling uncomfortable? I'll go take a look..."

As soon as Shen Ningning took two steps, Mo Lingwei grabbed her wrist.

His sharp eyebrows and thin eyes were dark and deep, but his tone was rarely full of patience.

"Don't go. I have arranged for someone to escort her. You will have a chance to meet her when you return to Beijing, but the children here are eagerly waiting for you to play games with them."

Shen Ningning felt that what he said made some sense.

He said, "Okay."

Immediately, the little girl happily started playing with the children again.

Mo Lingwei hoped that she would always be so carefree.

The Qi family had too many calculations, and he didn't want Shen Ningning's pure and clear heart to be hurt.

By the time Shen Ningning and Mo Lingwei finished helping the villagers, it was almost evening.

Qi Xiuwei really went home, just a short time ago.

She left a bodyguard behind and entrusted him to express her apology to Shen Ningning on her behalf.

She only said that she suddenly felt uncomfortable, probably because of the heat, so she went back first.

Mo Lingwei listened calmly beside him, secretly feeling that Qi Xiuwei was quite interesting.

Village Chief Wang served another sumptuous dinner.

Shen Ningning couldn't help but said: "Village chief, there is no need to be so extravagant and wasteful. You have prepared twelve dishes for the two of us. It is really too much to finish."

Mo Lingwei nodded and echoed the little girl's words: "You don't have to prepare meals tomorrow. We can just pick a house by ourselves and eat whatever they eat."

Village Chief Wang nodded and bowed, agreeing repeatedly.

He was murmuring in his heart.

According to legend, the prince was unkind and irritable, so they served him with caution.

But now after spending a day with His Highness the Crown Prince, I found that although the Crown Prince is a bit fierce, he is very reasonable.

After dinner, Shen Ningning and Mo Lingwei went out together and walked towards Dongshan.

Village Chief Wang quickly followed behind them.

"Your Highness the Prince, Your Highness the Princess, do you really want to go to Dongshan? Please ask the common people to prepare some things, and call a few people in the village who are familiar with the road. Otherwise, not only will the mountain road on Dongshan be rugged and difficult to walk, but there will also be monsters, and there will be monsters in the middle of the night. come out!"

Village Chief Wang's face turned pale in panic.

If the prince and princess were really allowed to go up the mountain, and something happened, his small Pingyuan Village would have to be buried alive by the emperor and Prime Minister Xie.

Shen Ningning turned her head and waved her little hand: "Village Chief, you don't have to worry. When I get to the mountains, it's like I'm at my own home. I can't leave it behind."

Mo Lingwei even sneered: "I'm afraid you are mistaken about the so-called monster. There really is a monster. Why do you only dare to make a little noise? Even if there is really a monster, it has such power that there is no need to be afraid."

The two of them were so bold that Village Chief Wang didn't know what to say.

He saw the guards brought by the prince following him, and guessed that nothing would happen.

But Shen Ningning still asked Village Chief Wang to call two villagers who were familiar with the terrain.

"Let them lead the way and tell us where the cry came from."

The night was dark and the wind was howling in the mountains.

The heat and dryness during the day have all subsided, leaving only the stuffy wind in the mountains.

Fortunately, the guards all held torches, which illuminated the road brightly. The two villagers in the lead talked about the monster legends of Dongshan as they walked.

"For at least four or five years, the monster's cry can be heard even from far away. No matter day or night, the elderly people in the village say that this is a sign that the monster is going to come down the mountain to eat people."

Mo Lingwei smiled: "Did anyone get eaten?"

"This... not yet, but the villagers who went in to look for the source of the sound all fainted in the mountains for no reason. If they weren't monsters, what could they be?"

Shen Ningning said nothing and kept looking around, observing the terrain.

The bright crystal eyes reflected the two lights of fire, making the little face look even calmer.

Suddenly, the villagers leading the way stopped.

"It's broken!" His face suddenly turned pale: "I'm lost. If a ghost hits the wall, it must be a ghost hitting the wall. I used to walk this road hundreds of times when I was chopping firewood. I always remember that there is a tree in front of me. Old banyan tree, why is that tree also missing?”

The two villagers who were familiar with the terrain suddenly panicked.

The torch flickered, and unknown birds chirped from the forest, which seemed to be under confinement.

Shen Ningning asked at this time: "Do you still remember where we are going and where it is?"

"It's in the south. The common people will definitely remember it. I followed them into the mountains and searched for the source of the strange noise. It was to the south."

But now, the two villagers couldn't tell where they were.

Mo Lingwei took a deep breath: "Then let the guards divide into three groups and explore the road separately. They will meet here again in half an hour."

"No need," Shen Ningning suddenly waved her hand and pointed to the sky: "We are on the right track, this is the way to the south."

The villagers were surprised: "How did Her Royal Highness confirm this?"

Shen Ningning blinked her big eyes: "There is a saying, haven't you heard it? When the handle of the Big Dipper points to the south, it is summer all over the world. Look at the stars in the sky, which look like spoons. It is hot summer now. There is absolutely nothing wrong with moving forward.”

The villagers bravely walked forward for a while.

Suddenly, they became happy.

"It's actually true. It turns out that I remembered the wrong intersection just now. This old banyan tree is indeed here."

Mo Ling smiled dangerously and asked Shen Ningning: "Who did you learn the astrology from?"

Shen Ningning crossed her waist proudly.

"My mother, the books she left behind all teach hard knowledge!"

However, a few steps further, the two villagers did not dare to move forward at all.

"Your Royal Highness, the place ahead is close to where we fainted before. There are invisible things that can sting people. It is very dangerous. You and Your Highness the Crown Prince had better not get close."

As soon as he finished speaking, a loud roar came from in front of him, causing the birds in the forest to flutter their wings and fly away.

The two villagers immediately squatted down with their heads in their hands and screamed loudly: "The monster is screaming, this is the sound, it's over, we will be captured and eaten!"
