Evil Doctor Princess - Chapter 226
Chapter 226 Unknown Beast
When Mo Ying heard the cry, he hurriedly ran over to take a look, but the person in front of him was not Bai Junzhuo.
Huang Li felt someone approaching, so she stood up in panic and looked at Mo Ying, “Who are you?”
Mo Ying had noticed Huang Li when he was investigating Youzhi and knew that she was Youzhi’s daughter. Instead of answering her, he asked, “Why are you here?”
Seeing that he did not look like a bad person and that he was not from Jiahe Village, Huang Li guessed that he was an outsider and had lost his way in this forest. “Are you lost? See that row of stones behind you? Follow that stone and you’ll be out.”
Mo Ying said, “I followed this stone in.”
Huang Li blinked her eyes and tilted her head to ask, “What are you doing here? It’s still early spring and you can’t hunt.”
Mo Ying didn’t have any twists and turns in his heart. He also felt that the girl in front of him had nothing to guard against, so he directly said to her, “I came here to find someone. My mistress told me to follow the stone.”
Only then did Huang Li understand that the stone was left behind by his master. She raised her head and said, “But there are no more stones here.”
“Nothing?” Mo Ying stepped forward to take a look. Sure enough, there were no pebbles to guide the way here.
Mo Ying scratched his head and said angrily, “What should we do? My mistress is still pregnant. What should we do if we encounter danger?”
Upon hearing the words “pregnant”, Huang Li guessed that the owner of his family should be the person who claimed to be Madam Yin Xun. Although she was reluctant to help her, the thought of danger in this forest could mean two lives for one corpse.
After a moment of confusion in his heart, he still felt that human life was more important. He said to Mo Ying, “Don’t worry, this forest is easy for outsiders to get lost, but it’s nothing to me. I’ll go find it with you.”
“You want to come with me?” Mo Ying was a little suspicious.
Huang Li nodded her head and turned around to urge, “Hurry up. When she runs deeper into the forest, there will be many dangers in there. At that time, I can’t help you anymore.”
Mo Ying was dumbfounded for a moment, then touched his body and replied, “Sorry to bother you, Miss, but I don’t have any money with me now. When I find my mistress and leave this forest, I will definitely reward you heavily.”
Huang Li raised her eyebrows, pinched her waist with one hand and pointed at him with the other, “Why are you so snobbish? Could it be that I helped you for your money? I won’t help you anymore nonsense!”
“Oh.” Mo Ying quickly shut his mouth and led the carriage with Huang Li into the depths of the forest.
The deeper they went, the denser the trees became. After walking for a while, the carriage was completely unable to pass through. Huang Li turned around and asked, “Why are you driving in a carriage?”
Mo Ying replied honestly, “My wife asked me to bring them here. They are all things she needs to produce. If anything happens to her, such as premature birth, she can still be in an emergency.”
Huang Li stuck out her tongue and said, “I see. Your wife is already prepared to be trapped in this forest. Isn’t she a little abnormal? Since she knows that she might be trapped in the forest, why did she come in?”
Mo Ying smiled and said, “This is where my wife is smart. She is not afraid of anything, and her thoughts are hard for ordinary people to understand.”
When Huang Li saw him say that, she pouted and said, “Smart, aren’t you lost?”
“I’m also very curious,” Mo Ying said, puzzled. “She clearly said she would leave a clue for me, but why did it end halfway?”
Huang Li sighed, “Strange is useless. Find a place to tie the carriage. It’s not convenient for you to continue leading the carriage inside.”
Mo Ying nodded and found a taller tree to tie the carriage up before continuing into the depths of the jungle.

Yin Xun walked in the woods for a long time, feeling as if everything around him was the same. He estimated that he had lost his way, so he turned around and walked back. However, after walking for a while, he still found that he seemed to be circling around in circles.
The sun had already risen to the center, and the weather in early spring was still slightly cold. Fortunately, there was no wind here, and the sun was also comfortable. Yin Xun was a little tired from walking, so he jumped onto a big tree and saw if he could see the way out from standing high up.
However, there were too many trees here, too tall to see further.
He sighed and jumped off the tree again.
After a while, he felt a little hungry again. He thought about whether he could find something to eat in this forest, but he looked around and didn’t even have a crow.
Just as he was about to give up, he suddenly heard the sound of a horse howling from afar. He thought that he finally had something to eat, so he walked towards the direction of the horse howling.
Following the sound, Mo Ying soon saw the carriage tied there. There were several small round, stuffy four-legged animals that were the size of domestic cats, with short ears and short tails crawling on the horse’s body.
They noticed that Yin Xun was approaching. All of them turned their faces to Yin Xun and stood on both feet. They stared at Yin Xun with their large, black eyes, as if they were not afraid of him.
Yin Xun looked at them with his hands crossed over his chest. He had seen many rare birds and exotic beasts, but he had never seen such a thing before. Some of them were like fat, rusty leopard cats, but they were shorter than leopard cats’ hands, feet, ears, and tail.
It looks delicious.
Yin Xun didn’t move, nor did they understand. He even looked at each other from time to time, using his short claws to scratch his stomach.
Yin Xun looked at the horse. There were many wounds on the horse’s body, and some of the wounds were dripping with blood. Could it be that these little things were injured?
He looked at their claws carefully, not knowing why their hair was too long to cover them from time to time. Their fingernails did not seem to be very lethal, as if they would not grab a horse like this.
Yin Xun thought for a moment and finally decided to grab two roasted ones to eat.
He drew out his sword and leaned against the little things, and as soon as he moved, the little thing on the horse suddenly jumped towards him, and opened its mouth to his face, revealing teeth as sharp as a jackal’s.
Yin Xun hurriedly took a step back. He didn’t expect that such delicious food would actually have such teeth.
These little animals didn’t seem to let Yin Xun off just because he took a step back. They jumped around, surrounded Yin Xun, and attacked him from all directions.
Yin Xun raised his sword and shot down one. He didn’t expect another one to bite his arm fiercely behind him. Yin Xun shot it down with his back hand, and that thing actually tore off a piece of his skin.
Yin Xun furrowed his brows in pain, feeling somewhat annoyed in his heart. With a turn of his sword, he slashed several of them to death with a single sword strike.
Seeing that his companion was injured, the little creature that had not been hacked was very scared and quickly fled.
Yin Xun tore off a piece of cloth and bandaged up the wound on his arm. He bent down to pick up the corpses of the little things and intended to roast them. However, as soon as he got down, he felt his head become heavier. A burning sensation spread out from the wound and soon invaded his entire body.
He thought to himself, “Not good. Could it be that this thing’s saliva is still poisonous?”
Before he could think about it, he could not hold on and fainted.

After burning away for more than half a day, Bai Jun discovered that the seeds he had used to guide the way had been eaten by those round little things. Originally, she was quite angry, but when she saw how cute this little thing was, she couldn’t get angry anymore.
These little things weren’t afraid of her. Seeing Bai Junzhuo squatting down to look at them, they also stood neatly and looked at Bai Junzhuo. Bai Junzhuo held all the fruits he had picked up in his hand and called out to the little things, “Come and eat.”
The short tails of the animals wagged and wagged, seemingly very happy. They hurriedly ran over and lowered their heads to eat the things in Bai Junzhuo’s hands.
Bai Junzhuo observed carefully. These animals were somewhat like cats, but their teeth were sharp, more like rats.
Not long after, the fruit in his palm was eaten up. Bai Junzhuo suddenly felt a numbness in his palm. It was probably this little thing that was adding to her. Bai Junzhuo immediately felt that his heart was about to melt.
She patted the little thing’s head and its ears trembled. Bai Junzhuo wanted to grab one and observe it carefully. She stretched out her hand, but the little things seemed to feel that her intentions had changed. Suddenly, their mouths widened, revealing their long and sharp teeth. Bai Jun was startled and quickly retreated. He immediately took out a bag of lime powder from his bag and sprinkled it out. The little things hurriedly hid and stood not far away, revealing a ferocious expression as they looked at Bai Jun Zhuo.
Sure enough, this world couldn’t just look at its appearance. I didn’t expect such a cute thing to have such a violent temper. Bai Junzhuo couldn’t help but feel a little scared. Although the thing in front of him was small, the teeth in front of him really made people shiver.
As Bai Junzhuo confronted them, another batch of similar gadgets suddenly jumped over from behind. After chattering for a while, they all turned around and headed in another direction, no longer caring about Bai Junzhuo.
Bai Junzhuo secretly heaved a sigh of relief. She glanced at their distant figures. Suddenly, her heart froze. She actually saw a piece of cloth stained on one of their claws. That cloth seemed to belong to Yin Xun!
She was more worried than afraid and hurriedly followed.
She did not know what these little creatures were, nor did she know how destructive they were. Should she be killed later? But she just couldn’t control her worries.
What if they gave Yin Xun …
“Impossible, impossible!” She hurriedly shook her head to disperse her thoughts. Even if Yin Xun lost his memory, he was still very powerful. He wouldn’t even be unable to deal with such a small thing. He must have overthought it.
Just as she was comforting herself like this, she suddenly stepped on something and slipped.
She hurriedly supported her body with her arms to ensure that it would not press down on the fetus in her stomach. When the little things in front saw her fall, they all stopped and turned to look at her. Bai Junzhuo was extremely worried. He quickly took out the poison in his bag and planned to deal with them.
Seeing that Bai Jun couldn’t move, these little things turned around and ran again.
Bai Junzhuo secretly heaved a sigh of relief. It turned out that they wouldn’t move even if he didn’t move. It was estimated that their eyes were like frogs. They were more sensitive to dynamic scenes, so they wouldn’t be able to see if they were still.
Bai Junzhuo moved her feet away to stand up. Suddenly, she saw something that had slipped her down. She was stunned for a moment, and then she shouted loudly.
That thing was actually a human hand that had been bitten off!
