Chapter 257 - Harmony
He had originally thought that with this strike, he would fall into a tiger's stomach. Even if he didn't, this fall would definitely be either fatal or crippling.
However, Xiao Qingqian accurately grabbed her hand.
Wei Qing stabilised her body, patted her chest and exhaled.
Xiao Qingqian looked at her, ”If you did not tell this duke to stop just now, this bastard would not have been given the chance to stay under the tree.”
”I have knockout drugs.” With that said, Wei Qing handed the silver needles that had been refined with sedatives over.
Xiao Qingqian furrowed his brows, and used his finger to hold onto a few needles, ”How are the effects of the medicine?”
”It should be pretty good!”
He opened his eyebrows slightly and threw a silver needle towards the roaring tiger.
The piercing pain made the tiger become even more manic. When its claws were resting on the tree trunk, Wei Qing could clearly hear a ”crack” sound.
Her face was pale as she hugged Xiao Qingqian tightly, and asked timidly: ”Did you fall down?”
Xiao Qingqian looked down at the dependent Wei Qing, and raised his eyebrows and laughed.
”Maybe!” As soon as his words sounded, 'kacha' was heard.
Wei Qing shut her eyes tightly, and asked hoarsely: ”Did the tree fall?”
Xiao Qingqian looked at her little face that was wrinkled with fear, and her smile became even wider.
”He really is unafraid!”
Hearing that, Wei Qing suddenly opened her eyes, only to see a broken branch on the ground, the tiger that was initially roaring had also started to wilt.
With a ”dong” sound, the tiger fell to the ground.
”Do you want the tiger bones or not?” Xiao Qingqian looked at Wei Qing.
Wei Qing stared at the fierce tiger, hesitating a little.
At this moment, another whistling sound pierced the eardrums.
Wei Qing's face, which had a tinge of color to it, immediately became deathly pale, ”Another fierce tiger won't come, right?”
Xiao Qingqian listened carefully, ”It should be the female tiger's cub.”
Wei Qing heaved a sigh of relief, ”This place is so dangerous, let's go back first.”
Xiao Qingqian nodded, and brought Wei Qing up and down to return to the wooden hut.
After cleaning the skin and lighting a fire, Xiao Qingqian began to roast the hare and pheasant.
Wei Qing curled her lips, ”You want to roast it this dry?”
Xiao Qingqian did not understand, ”Could it be that flowers can be roasted?”
”If I had salt, I could roast flowers.”
Looking at her smiling face, Xiao Qingqian raised his eyebrows, ”How does Consort Wang know?”
Wei Qing's eyes opened wide, ”There really is one!”
”I'll leave it to you!”
With that, Xiao Qingqian stood up and indicated for Wei Qing to sit.
Wei Qing pouted, ”You really did find a pretty good excuse.”
”The princess said that as long as there was salt, the flowers would be roasted.”
Wei Qing had only said that without thinking, so she did not really want to roast some food for Xiao Qingqian to eat.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Qingqian really had prepared all of the seasonings, and this really made Wei Qing so shocked that her jaw almost dropped.
”You didn't prepare all the seasonings here, did you?” she asked, blinking.
Xiao Qingqian raised his eyebrows, ”What do you think?”
Wei Qing took a deep breath and started to use salt to marinate the rabbit meat. Then she told Xiao Qingqian to go find a branch to come over.
