Song Qing had a mysterious expression and put a finger to his mouth: "!"
"Ah?" Wanyan Ping was confused, "Brother-in-law, what kind of language are you speaking?"
Song Qing couldn't help but feel awkward. In his moment of pride, he couldn't help but think of the famous catchphrase from Detective Conan. Of course, he changed it a little.
"Uh, what I mean is …" Song Qing purposely paused to keep Wanyan Ping in suspense before saying, "This is a secret."
Wanyan Ping was so angry that she almost whipped him again but curiosity won out, "Brother-in-law ~" She purposely dragged out the last syllable and said coquettishly, "Tell me, tell me ~"
Most of the time, Wanyan Ping was cold so when she acted coquettishly like a little girl, even Song Qing couldn't stand it, "This is Brother-in-law's unique skill, you can't just tell anyone."
Actually, the reason behind it was not worth a penny. He could shoot down the sparrow with an empty bow not because he was good at archery, but because he didn't know anything about archery so he could only use this method. When he heard Wanyan Ping talk about Tang Kuo's amazing archery skills, he knew that it would be hard to avoid archery and he couldn't act too clumsily. After all, the girl next to him was an archery expert and could see his archery skills with one glance. So he decided to play a big game.
Of course, he wouldn't really reach the level of no arrows, he wanted to use this to scare Wanyan Ping and attract her attention. Then, he would secretly shoot out sword energy to shoot down the sparrow from the tree. Speaking of which, he was glad that they were in the forest and not on the grasslands. Otherwise, with the height of the eagles on the grasslands, his sword energy wouldn't have been able to shoot so far.
"Can't you even tell me? I'm not someone else." Wanyan Ping continued to shake his arm and begged.
"Ping 'er, this is my unique skill," Song Qing obviously couldn't tell her the truth so he could only think of a way, "In this lifetime, I will only tell this secret to my wife and then pass it on to my son."
"At worst, I'll be your wife!" Wanyan Ping blurted out. The two of them froze at the same time.
"What did you say?" Song Qing's expression was very strange.
Wanyan Ping's face was as red as a tomato, "You heard wrong!" Finishing, she guiltily urged her horse to gallop deeper into the forest.
Song Qing laughed. This time, he didn't need to think of an excuse. She wouldn't have the face to bring this up again. He quickly called out, "Ping 'er, wait for me!"
How could Wanyan Ping wait for him now? Hearing his voice, she ran even faster. Luckily, the forest was not good for horses to run at full speed, so Song Qing could barely keep up with her.
"Ping, there's a spotted deer here!" Wanyan Ping, who was in front, gave a cry of surprise. The excitement of finding prey finally washed away the awkwardness in her heart. She hurriedly shot an arrow, but the deer was very alert. When it heard her cry, it moved and just happened to dodge the fatal arrow that came at it.
The deer jumped left and right, and using the cover of the dense forest, it quickly disappeared into the thicket. But Wan Yan Ping had been out for so long, and it wasn't easy for her to come across such a rare prey. She couldn't bear to let it go. She quickly crouched down and pressed her body tightly against the horse's back. She dodged all the branches that were flying towards her and chased after the deer.
Song Qing was dumbfounded. How could he have such good horsemanship? In this moment of daze, Wanyan Ping's figure had already disappeared. He could only faintly hear sounds coming from the forest.
Right now, Wanyan Ping was related to the antidote for Song YuanQiao and the others. Song Qing naturally didn't want anything to happen to her. Of course, after interacting with her for this period of time, he had a very good impression of this pretty girl. From his perspective, he also couldn't see anything happen to her.
Song Qing gritted his teeth and abandoned the horse he was riding. With a tap of his foot, he shot into the forest like an arrow.
Finally, without the restraint of the horse, Song Qing was like a bird in the forest or a fish in the ocean. If someone was watching from the side, they would only be able to see a black shadow jumping from tree to tree. His speed was even faster than the horse running at full speed!
After chasing like this for a while, Song Qing finally caught up to Wanyan Ping. However, he didn't dare get close to her, so he slowed down and followed her from a distance to secretly protect her.
"Yoo, yoo!" The spotted deer had already reached a dead end. There was no path in front of it, there were pursuers behind it, and there was a steep mountain stream next to it. It couldn't help but whimper.
Wanyan Ping couldn't help but give a proud smile, "Let's see where you can run now."
She nocked her bow and was about to shoot when the spotted deer seemed to have a mind of its own. It shrunk back a bit, leaving Wanyan Ping no longer able to shoot.
"Hmph, do you think this princess can't do anything to you?" Wanyan Ping put down her bow and pulled out the knife on her waist as she jumped off the horse. The path was too steep and the size of a horse couldn't go up. Luckily, the spotted deer had nowhere else to go and she alone was enough to deal with it.
As Wanyan Ping got closer, the spotted deer became visibly anxious. It would occasionally look at the mountain stream next to them. Seeing this, Wanyan Ping was secretly scared. She was afraid that it would see that there was no hope of survival and jump into the mountain stream. Then all her efforts would be in vain.
Wanyan Ping held the knife in her left hand and placed her right hand on the whip at her waist. Her attention was completely focused on the spotted deer not far away. Once it decided to jump into the mountain stream, her whip would immediately wrap around its body. The deer wasn't very big, so Wanyan Ping was confident that she could catch it.
Song Qing's brows slightly furrowed and he quickly got closer. He didn't approve of her taking such a dangerous action for the sake of hunting.
Seeing that she was getting closer to the deer, an excited smile appeared on Wanyan Ping's face. Suddenly, she felt a numbness on her calf. Looking down, she saw a small snake with grey and white stripes baring its fangs.
"Oh no!" Wanyan Ping exclaimed. Just as she was about to go back, she felt a numbness come from her leg. She lost her balance and her entire body fell into the mountain stream.
The snake was too small and Song Qing didn't notice it at first. It wasn't until Wanyan Ping suddenly stopped that he realized something was wrong. When he looked closely and saw the small snake, Wanyan Ping had already fallen into the mountain stream.
In a split second, Song Qing didn't think too much and rushed out. Unfortunately, he was a step too late and only managed to grab Wanyan Ping's sleeve. Unfortunately, the sleeve was instantly torn. Song Qing cursed under his breath and threw away the sleeve. His entire body jumped up and caught Wanyan Ping. It was a pity that the two of them were falling too fast and he couldn't use his qinggong. He could only tightly protect Wanyan Ping in his arms and circulate his qi to protect himself as they rolled down.
