Chapter 25: The Hunting Party

"I'm going to go in! Hunting! Hunting!"

Fang Zheng's voice echoed in the spacious square of Nanshan Village, although this voice was not too loud, but it shocked the hearts of all the villagers of Nanshan Village.

"Hunting party?!"

He said...... He said he was going to join the hunting party?"

"Oh my God, he's only seven years old!"

Hearing Fang Zheng's words, the villagers looked at me one by one, and I looked at you, all with a look of disbelief.

Village Chief Meng Bai was the first to come back to his senses, glanced at Fang Houde, who was still in a sluggish state, and muttered softly: "Houde...... You've got a good son!"

And Qin Xuelian trembled all over her after hearing the words around her, her beautiful eyes glanced at Fang Zhengzhi, and then at Fang Houde who was lying in front of her, and tears finally gushed out again......

......

Soon, Fang Zhengzhi's intention to enter the hunting team was like a gust of wind blowing throughout Nanshan Village, and some of the old people in the village who stayed at home couldn't believe it when they heard the news.

However, the fact that Fang Zhengzhi smashed the bluestone with one punch was seen by dozens of people.

"It's incredible, how the hell does this kid do it......? Initiated?"

"How is this possible! I guess the stone has already cracked, and the righteous kid saw that his father was injured, and his potential exploded in anger!"

"Anyway, even if there is a crack in that stone, and it needs to be blown open with one punch, it is not something that a seven-year-old child can do!"

"yes! What a brute force, it's much stronger than when I was a kid!"

The voices of discussion spread in Nanshan Village, and the villagers began to praise the old Fang family for having a square upright man with brute strength.

But where the wind blows, there will always be some debris splashing.

For example, the sister-in-law of the Li family was extremely unhappy: "Isn't it just brute force? I can't enter the Taoist hall, and I will definitely not be able to pass the Taoist exam in the future, so what about the strength? It's not the life of a lifetime of hunting!"

And Li Zhuangshi is a little worried these days, always looking at Li Hu'er from time to time and sighing, I don't know what I'm thinking......

The village head, Meng Bai, sat on the carriage into the county seat, looked at the continuous peaks outside the car, put the cigarette stick in his hand into his mouth with some annoyance, took a hard sip, and spit out a strong puff of smoke.

"Old Fang's family...... Old man, I can't stand you! Blame me for being too blind to see the potential of this upright child, but it's too late to say anything now, and the quota of the Dao Hall has been reported, and I want to change it...... It's so hard......"

......

In the Fang family's earthen house, Qin Xuelian carefully washed away the blood stains on Fang Houde's body, and then gently sat down beside Fang Zhengzhi.

"Zheng'er...... You...... Do you really have to join the hunting team?" Qin Xuelian looked at Fang Zhengzhi's gaze a little complicated, after the scene in the square, even she didn't know how to talk to her son.

Treat Fang Zhengcheng as an adult, but he is only seven years old.

It also seems a little inappropriate to treat him as a child, because Fang Zhengzhi is already a person who is about to go into the mountains to hunt, and that is the place that supports the lifeblood of the entire Nanshan Village......

"Yes, mother!" Fang Zheng nodded straightly, he understood what Qin Xuelian was thinking, but there were some things he had to do, now that Fang Houde had fallen, he had to stand up and hold it up at the most difficult time in this family!

"However, you are only seven years old now......" Qin Xuelian was a little speechless and stopped.

"Mother, don't worry, I'll be careful! Besides, didn't the village chief say? I'm now in the hunting team, and all the prey I hunt belongs to me, and my father is injured now, how can I do it without eating some meat?" Fang Zhengzhi comforted himself with this mother.

Intellectually speaking, he knew that he was a little impulsive in doing this, Cangling Mountain was full of dangers, although he had made some breakthroughs now, but once he encountered any big beasts, it was also extremely difficult to parry.

The main thing is that he doesn't have any fighting skills with wild beasts, and he didn't even fight with dogs in his previous life.

It's really embarrassing.

However, after making such a decision, he did not regret it.

Fortunately, the villagers of Nanshan Village were still quite simple, and Fang Houde was injured first, so although he made an amazing move, no one questioned why his strength suddenly increased.

Then the next thing to consider is how to get up the mountain and how to stay in the mountain for a long time, both to be able to hunt prey and to be able to stay safe......

For the hunting methods of the Nanshan Village Hunting Team, Fang Zhengzhi knows a little.

It is a very rigid method, laying some small traps on some road intersections, and then, the whole hunting team huddles together, wanders around Cangling Mountain, and swarms to shoot bows and arrows when they encounter prey.

It can be said to be primitive to the extreme!

This is not the method that Fang Zhengzhi wants to adopt, because in this way, once he encounters a powerful beast, the whole team will be in danger, and if you are lucky, you will survive a month and two months, but can you survive for a lifetime?

Some of the old people in the village have some old injuries on their bodies, and even some of them are missing arms and legs, which is the sequelae!

You have to change this way of hunting!

Fang Zhengzhi thought of this, and fell into deep thought, what should he do to hunt the prey again and ensure safety? And there is also a lurking danger, that is, the green fire wolf that has been wandering on the periphery of Cangling Mountain!

Qin Xuelian looked at Fang Zhengzhi's slightly frowning brow, and her lips moved.

"Zheng'er, in fact, my mother picked up a gold ...... a few days ago"

"Mother, just keep the ingot of gold for my father to recuperate!" Fang Zhengzhi knew what Qin Xuelian wanted to say, and since he had already stood up, he had no intention of hiding anything.

"You...... You know......" The surprise in Qin Xuelian's eyes couldn't be concealed at this moment, and then, she recalled the child who was wrapped like a "zongzi" on the high platform that day, and suddenly, she understood.

When she looked at Fang Zhengzhi, her eyes were extremely complicated.

"You're growing up......"

"Mother, leave this home to me with confidence!"

Fang Zhengzhi didn't say anything more after he finished speaking, because he knew very well that he would have to go out sooner or later with this step, it was just a matter of time sooner or later.

I heard about the wolf skin of the green fire wolf...... But it's worth a lot of silver, so let me see you for what you really are!

......

Half a month later, early in the morning......

Qin Xuelian, who was dressed in cloth, carefully arranged the animal skin jacket on her body for Fang Zheng.

There are a lot of poisonous snakes, insects and ants on Cangling Mountain, it is impossible to wear too thin if you want to go into the mountain to hunt, at this moment Fang Zhengzhi, with a pair of high-barreled animal skin boots on his feet, a pair of small leather gloves on his hands, a small animal skin jacket that reaches the thighs, and a animal skin hat on his head.

From a distance, it looks like a small mountain beast.

Though......

There are patches on it in many places!

After a period of rest and recuperation, coupled with the medicine brought back from the county seat by the village elder, some of the villagers in the hunting team who had been slightly injured had basically recovered, and Fang Houde was able to slowly get out of bed and walk a few steps.

"When you enter the mountain, if you see a big beast, you ...... Hide in the back!" Fang Houde's voice came from the inner room.

Fang Zhengzhi was slightly stunned, with his father's simple character, it takes great courage to say such things.

"Daddy, don't worry, I'll always hide behind!" Fang Zheng straightened up the big back that had been sorted out on the ground, and hid a small dagger in the animal skin boots, and went out directly.

"Zheng'er, you didn't bring a bow ......" As soon as she went out, Qin Xuelian's voice rang out.

"I won't!" Fang Zhengzhi pouted.

"Zheng'er...... Knife...... You didn't have a knife with you either......"

"I won't ...... either"

"This ...... How can you hunt if you don't bring anything?"

"I have this!" Fang Zheng pointed straight at the big back behind him, then took out the dagger hidden in the little leather boots, and shook it in front of Qin Xuelian......
