On the same night, the bright moon hung high in the sky.

Lin Zhaojun had dinner under the gaze of Zi Yan's parents and the Xiao Zhi.

With regards to this, Lin Zhaojun expressed her helplessness.

Actually, she wanted Zi Yan and her family to eat together, but a light flashed through the fat Xiao Zhi's eyes, and the rest of them hurriedly refused.

Zi Yan's family was very clear about her identity. Even if they had ten more guts to share a table with her wife, they wouldn't dare to do so!

After dinner, Xiao Zhi and his little friend decided to secretly catch the thief who stole the Ice Jade Snow Fruit.

In order to avoid being overly restrained by Zi Yan's parents, Lin Zhaojun decided to follow them, although they were just a group of brats.

When Xiao Zhi brought him to the front of the four young friends, they were met with unanimous contempt.

Lin Zhaojun then indicated that she was going to witness the heroic and heroic actions of the little heroes.

The little kids immediately welcomed Lin Zhaojun into their group happily.

Thus, that night, Lin Zhaojun followed the five little boys and hid in a grass nest beside a fruit tree that was filled with Ice Jade Snow Fruit s.

"Hey!" Fatty, do you think the person who stole the Ice Jade Snow Fruit will still come? " Lin Zhaojun heard a young, tender child's voice asking.

Xiao Zhi didn't seem to have any awareness of being fat. He glanced at the little fellow beside him and asked: "Who's Fatty? You are the fatty, your entire family is the fatty!? "

"Humph, no one knows who the fatty is!"

After the Xiao Zhi heard this, he started to hum softly.

Lin Zhaojun turned her head to see a black robed child holding a mini bow in her hand. On her back was a small arrow, with seven or eight wooden arrows embedded inside.

Hehe, this is the Little Tiger that Xiao Zhi talked about earlier in the day! This style is really pretty, no wonder other children would be envious! Lin Zhaojun thought.

"Shh …" Listen up, there's a sound! " Another round-faced child reminded him.

Thus, Lin Zhaojun and the four little brats held their breath and listened.

"Pa …" From not too far away came the clear sounds of footsteps and Ice Jade Snow Fruit landing.

In the bright moonlight, Lin Zhaojun could vaguely see a tall man shamelessly eating his way through the Ice Jade Snow Fruit s. He had already harvested quite a few, but he still did not intend to leave.

Little Tiger jumped up and shouted: "Little thief, where are you going to run to?"

It was originally a very mighty sentence, but now it was said by a little brat who had yet to dry up. It sounded no matter how you looked at it, it was still funny.

Lin Zhaojun did not give any face as she laughed.

The kids' eyes seemed to say, "Damn, are you even with us?"

Lin Zhaojun rubbed her nose in embarrassment and then stood up after him, reminding these children: "Heroes, shouldn't we take down the thief who stole the Ice Jade Snow Fruit first?"

The kids woke up and ran to the tall figure.

The shadow didn't seem to be able to react in time, it just stood there in a daze. When the few children were about to approach, it suddenly started running, its speed making even Lin Zhaojun jump in fright, let alone the brats.

Wow, that was fast!

In the blink of an eye, he had vanished into thin air.

Lin Zhaojun said to the little kid who was still in a daze. "Heh, that thief already ran away, let's go back!"

Little Tiger gritted his teeth and said, "He actually ran away. This is such a great shame and humiliation!"

The other kids agreed, "Yes, it's a great shame!"

They then chased after the direction in which the Ice Jade Snow Fruit's thief had escaped.

Lin Zhaojun, "..."

Thinking about it, these brats had come with him after all, so it would be hard to explain what had happened.

Thus, Lin Zhaojun ran after the little brat.

After chasing for a while, he realized that the brats had suddenly stopped and were standing on the spot. They seemed to want to continue chasing but didn't dare to do so.

Lin Zhaojun asked: "What's wrong?"

The little fatty Xiao Zhi pointed towards a mountain in front of them and said, "He ran in!"

Lin Zhaojun took a closer look and saw a tall mountain with lush green trees.

A gust of wind blew past. The leaves swayed and rustled. There were a few sounds of birds mixed in with it, making it seem rather strange.

"Forget it, let's head back!" Lin Zhaojun said to the brats.

The brats were still unwilling, they stood far away, unwilling to leave.

Lin Zhaojun had to persuade her: "That thief ran into the mountain forest. It's not easy to find him at night. Besides, the Bugs, Snakes, and Beasts have all come out at night, and we don't have any torches or weapons.

"My father said that there are no wolves on this mountain!" Little Tiger said, unconvinced.

Lin Zhaojun patiently coaxed again, "If there's no wolf, then what about the tiger? Where's the wild boar? There were also poisonous snakes... "Forget it, we've already found him today. He probably won't dare to steal from us anymore!"

The little fatty Xiao Zhi looked at Lin Zhaojun, a little conflicted. If he never came out to steal again, wouldn't I never be able to catch him again?

The brats were at a loss for a long time, and decided to obediently listen to the adults and not catch them.

Therefore, when Lin Zhaojun planned to give them some more harsh words to scare them, the kids all turned around and walked back without any warning.

Aiya, you guys, wait for me …" "Ah …

Lin Zhaojun suddenly realized that her skirt was caught by the brambles on the side of the road and it took a long time before she managed to pull it off.

As he chased after the brats, he cursed in his heart. Other than looking good, his clothes were useless. His movements were not convenient at all!

If Lin Zhaojun turned her head around, she would discover that a tall shadow had walked out from the forest, and stopped at the spot where Lin Zhaojun and the others were standing.

He bent down and picked up a white jade beside a thicket of brambles. He raised it above his head, and the white jade with the phoenix pattern shone with a white light under the moonlight.

When Lin Zhaojun and the others returned to the village, they saw Zi Yan and Zi Yan's parents surrounding them, and asked: "Princess, I'll go out for a while, and I don't know where you've gone to, but you've left us in such a hurry! What's up with you guys? "

"I'm fine!" It's nothing! We went to catch the thief! " Little Tiger proudly raised his head and said.

"What?" Catch the thief, what kind of thief are we going to catch? " Zi Yan cried out in alarm.

The little fatty Xiao Zhi replied, "Of course it's the thief that stole the Ice Jade Snow Fruit! I said during the day that I would catch him! "

"Sis, you don't know, we almost caught him just now …" Ah … Sis, why did you hit me? " Xiao Zhi sincerely wanted to show off his glorious past, but unexpectedly, he was chased and beaten by his own sister.

Knowing why Zi Yan wanted to hit the Xiao Zhi, she hurriedly advised: "Zi Yan, stop it! We've all safely returned! "

Thus, the Xiao Zhi successfully escaped from his sister's demonic claws.

Before going to bed, Zi Yan helped Lin Zhaojun to take off her clothes, and suddenly exclaimed: "Heavens, there's such a big hole in the skirt, Princess, are you injured?"

Lin Zhaojun said that she was fine.

Then, he heard Zi Yan's surprised exclamation, he turned around and saw Zi Yan holding a candle, carefully looking for something on the ground.

Lin Zhaojun asked somewhat helplessly: "What now?"

"Esteemed wangfei, the phoenix jade on your body has disappeared!"

Lin Zhaojun said indifferently: "Forget it, there's no need to look for me!"

"No, it was the prince who gave it to you when you were nine years old. That is your most treasured jade!"

Looking at Zi Yan's anxious expression, Lin Zhaojun lied, "I didn't bring that piece of jade when I went out today!"

"Is that so?"

Thus, under Zi Yan's doubtful gaze, Lin Zhaojun nodded her head heavily.
