Chapter 9 The law-abiding bear

Shen Yuexi wanted to cry but had no tears.

This chicken that kills a thousand people never comes out sooner or later, so why does it pop out at this time?

She looked at the pheasant, and the pheasant looked at her.

Big eyes and small eyes.

"Cuckoo!" the pheasant cried out, spread its wings and flew into the cave.

"Hurry up and help me catch that chicken!" the man in black shouted, excitedly dove into the hole, and happened to meet Xiao Zhuo face to face.

A cold light flashed, and Xiao Zhuo's steel knife accurately pierced his throat.

The man in black had an expression of extreme astonishment on his face, his eyes widened, his throat rattled, and his hand fell from the handle of the knife at his waist.

Xiao Zhuo grabbed the man in black by the collar with his left hand and dragged him, who looked like a dead fish, into the hole.

Shen Yuexi covered her mouth with both hands and backed away.

She also saw murders when she was ruining the temple. But seeing them so close in broad daylight still horrified her.

The emperor had an order to kill her and Xiao Zhuo without mercy.

If you don't kill the other party, the other party will kill them. In order to protect yourself, you can only be ruthless.

"Go catch that chicken." Xiao Zhuo raised his head and whispered to her while dragging the body of the man in black into the hole.

Catch a chicken?

Shen Yuexi didn't react for a moment. Why was she asked to catch chickens at such a critical moment of life and death?

But since Xiao Zhuo asked her to do this, he must have his intention.

She quickly held the knife in her hand and chased after the pheasant that was taking a leisurely walk.

"Cuckoo!" When the pheasant saw her coming after her, it screamed disdainfully and spread its wings and flew up. Although Shen Yuexi had stretched out her hand, she couldn't even catch the pheasant's tail.

I didn’t expect this chicken to be quite cunning.

"Big Bear, help me quickly." Shen Yuexi was quick to think.

"Dear master, what do you want to make?" Big Bear responded with a milky voice.

Shen Yuexi didn't have time to think about it, and shouted in her heart while chasing: "Roast chicken, make it a roast chicken!"

The radius of this cave is definitely less than five meters, and the big bear can turn this nasty pheasant into a fragrant roast chicken in an instant.

"Dear Master, there are live animals within the collection range. According to Article 777 of the Animal Protection Act, the universal manufacturing machine cannot obtain raw materials from the bodies of living animals."

What do you mean, she can only make roast chicken after she catches and kills it?

Shen Yuexi chased after the pheasant again. The pheasant cackled and flew lightly to the other side.

At this time, another person's voice sounded outside the cave, and he said with a smile: "You are also a royal guard after all. It's so hard to catch a chicken. Let me help you. When it is cooked, I will give half to my brothers."

Shen Yuexi was busy catching chickens and didn't even notice the sound of people outside.

She looked at the arrogant pheasant and rolled her eyes.

The reason why the pheasant cannot be caught is because it can fly. It can fly because it has wings. The wings allow the chicken to fly because it has feathers...

It’s done.

"Big Bear, I remembered. I want to make a feather duster. I want a large one."

After Shen Yuexi finished speaking, the scene of this hateful pheasant suddenly turning into a naked and hairless chicken suddenly appeared in her mind.

Before she could laugh out loud, the big bear poured another basin of cold water on her head.

"Dear Master, there are live animals within the collection range. According to Article 142 of the Animal Protection Act, the universal manufacturing machine cannot obtain raw materials from the bodies of living animals."

You won’t be allowed to make roast chicken, and you won’t be allowed to make feather dusters.

It seems that as long as the chicken is alive, the universal maker cannot do anything to it.

Shen Yuexi was angry: "Who invented this animal protection law? It can't even deal with a chicken?"

"Dear master, the universal manufacturing machine needs to comply with 4981 laws..."

Before Daxiong could finish speaking, Shen Yuexi had already angrily cut off the contact.

"Yue Xi, there's no need to catch that chicken."

Xiao Zhuo's deep voice called her back.

Shen Yuexi turned around and saw another corpse on the ground.

Now she finally understood that Xiao Zhuo had asked her to frighten the pheasant, making the man outside the cave mistakenly think that his companion was catching a chicken inside, and then entered without warning.

She can be regarded as completing the task assigned by Xiao Zhuo...

Xiao Zhuo took her hand and walked towards the entrance of the cave: "We have to leave as soon as possible. If we stay here, we will be discovered sooner or later."

Shen Yuexi walked to the entrance of the cave and turned back somewhat unconvinced.

The pheasant seemed to know that Shen Yuexi had nothing to do with it, and was patrolling the cave with its head held high, as if it was the boss here.

This is clearly a provocation.

Xiao Zhuo saw her angry look, reached for the knife in her hand, and quickly threw it at the pheasant in her puzzled eyes.

"Gu Gu?"

As soon as the pheasant crows, the knife pierces its breast with a whirring sound.

"Gah——!"

The pheasant flapped its wings and flew half a foot high before falling to the ground.

Shen Yuexi's eyes widened and she almost laughed.

This pheasant had been so arrogant just now, but now she could no longer be arrogant. She finally avenged the teasing she had just received. She glanced at Xiao Zhuo gratefully.

Let’s just say, people can’t be too arrogant, and the same goes for chickens. Isn’t this the end?

Picking up the pheasant and holding it in her hands, Shen Yuexi followed Xiao Zhuo out of the cave with a smile.

"Husband, where are we going now?"

After exiting the cave, our eyes suddenly opened up. This jungle looks very vast. If you want to get out, you probably won't be able to get out in a short while.

It would be really difficult for her to be here alone. Firstly, it is extremely difficult to tell the direction in the vast jungle and it is easy to get lost. Secondly, if she accidentally breaks into the territory of a beast, her life may be decided here.

"Let's leave this jungle first, and then go to the northwest frontier." Xiao Zhuo answered quickly.

Yue Xi was a little confused and stopped where she was.

Isn't the northwest frontier the destination of their exile? They had just escaped, why did they go there specifically?

Since it is a place of exile, the northwest frontier must be extremely poor. It will definitely not be a suitable place to live. With such poor mountains and harsh waters, it may be difficult to even take a bath.

Xiao Zhuo saw her stopped in place, turned around and came back to explain: "You also heard what those people said just now. It is the emperor's will to chase you and me. No matter where we escape, we will not be safe."

Shen Yuexi lowered her eyes and muttered in her heart.

There is nothing in the world but the king's soil. What Xiao Zhuo said is indeed true. Compared with the quality of life, life is definitely more important.

"The place of exile in Dayan is close to the enemy's country. It is extremely barren and cold, and there is no one to govern it. Since we escaped, the enemy will definitely think of us taking advantage of this to go to the rich land in the south." Xiao Zhuo continued to explain.

Who would have thought that Xiao Zhuo would actually flee to the place where they were originally going to be exiled?

This is the opposite.

She understood in her heart and looked at Xiao Zhuo. Xiao Zhuo put one hand behind his back and held a long knife in the other, facing the wind with a solemn gaze.

The future is full of dangers. It is as difficult as climbing to the sky for two people to escape from the pursuit of the emperor who controls the entire world.

Moreover, the pursuers have already said that as long as they see the deposed prince and the deposed prince concubine, they will kill them. Now she and Xiao Zhuo are already a grasshopper on the same rope. It is impossible to let the salted fish lie down.

Since the emperor asked them to die, she wanted to live well. As for Xiao Zhuo... Shen Yuexi looked at him, and she also wanted to live well.

No matter the emperor or anyone, don't try to stop her.

"I understand," she stretched out a hand to hold Xiao Zhuo and smiled brightly, "Husband, let's go."
