Chapter 1448: What's the grudge

In the blink of an eye, the night passed, and the next day everyone was awakened by the sound of the village horn.

The King Hunt is about to begin, and the people in the village begin to gather early in the morning.

Qin Shi was no exception, walking towards the middle of the village.

Soon, he changed to see the people of the Ma family.

Ma Ye was wearing a black vest with a red strip of cloth tied around his arm, and behind him, there was a group of people who were also dressed like him.

Qin Shi asked, "Brother Ma, are they all participating in the King Hunting Competition?" However, yesterday I heard from the village chief that the king was to be alone in the woods for seven days. ”

"The King Hunt Contest is the most lively thing, and there are naturally many people participating. However, most people knew they didn't have a chance, so they spent a few days in the woods and left them alone. There are only a few people who are really qualified to compete for the King Hunter, so they will stay in the woods for as long as possible. ”

Ma Tianlu said with a smile: "Of course, time is only a small criterion for evaluation. The final result still depends on who catches the prey more powerfully. ”

Hearing this, Qin Shi nodded.

Since it is a king hunting competition, the comparison is naturally their hunting ability.

This is not only a test of their ability to survive in the woods, but also their own skills and intelligence.

For those born in the Hunter Village, their hunting skills are not bad.

Even if you change to some ancient warriors to compete with them, I'm afraid they may not do as well.

On the other side, there is the location of the head of the Hunter Village.

The tall boy who once captured the black bear alive was wearing a blue vest and a strip of blue cloth tied to his arm.

With him were also a dozen or so young people.

"Xiao Luo, are you confident?" The village elder asked with a smile.

"Grandpa, don't worry, I will definitely become the king of hunting." The tall boy held his head high, his face full of confidence. He had captured a black bear alive, so he was bound to win the king hunt this time.

In this regard, the village chief nodded with satisfaction: "Of course Grandpa also believes in your ability, but you can't be careless." The King Hunt is in the middle of the forest and lasts for seven days, and you and the others are competitors. The same is also a companion. Sometimes, you can't do it alone, you know? ”

He knew his grandson well and was a good hunter, but it also made him proud.

Therefore, what really makes him uneasy is that Xiao Luo will be too arrogant.

When Xiao Luo heard this, he frowned, and seemed to be a little unhappy, but he still nodded and said, "Grandpa, don't worry, I won't be reckless." ”

More and more people are coming this way, and almost every household in the village is coming.

Qin Shi stood with the people of the Ma family, and at this moment, Ma Ye's father kept admonishing: "Xiao Ye, although the king of hunting is glorious, you must also do what you can." If you can fight, you can fight, but if you can't do it, it doesn't matter if you can't be a hunting king. ”

"Daddy, you don't have confidence in me? Before you start the competition, do you think I'm going to lose? Ma Ye said unconvinced.

In this regard, Ma Ye's father shook his head with a wry smile: "What are you talking about, since I let you participate, of course I have confidence in you." Merely...... Forget it, it's your choice, so be it. ”

Ma Ye was a little puzzled, he knew that his father still had something to say, but he didn't ask anymore. Because, he's going to play right away, and that's all that matters.

Ma Tianlu looked at Qin Shi and suddenly asked, "Brother Qin, do you think my nephew can become the king of hunting?" ”

"Brother Ma, you're asking the wrong person." Qin Shi shook his head.

He didn't know many details about the King Hunt competition, so how could he make a judgment?

And, even if he knew, he couldn't say for sure what the end would be.

Because, this time Mano still has a strong opponent. That young man named Xiao Luo can catch black bears alive, and his ability is definitely no worse than Ma Ye.

Therefore, Ma Ye's chances of becoming the king of hunting are less than fifty percent at most. If you factor in all the other factors, the chances are even smaller.

I'm afraid that at this time, everyone is more optimistic about Xiao Luo. As for Ma Ye, although he is not bad, there are not many people who are optimistic about him.

The King Hunt Tournament was held in a wooded area dozens of miles away from the village.

The forest is large, and it is infested with wild beasts all year round.

Moreover, this is still the territory of the Beast Mountain, and some of the beasts in it are also stocked by the Beast Mountain. As for the purpose, it is to select young people who can enter the Beast Mountain to practice martial arts.

However, many hunters die in this forest every year.

In this regard, Qin Shi secretly sighed that Beast Mountain had really played a big game of chess, created such a forest, and then let outsiders in.

Naturally, they don't care about the lives or deaths of those people, but if they perform well, they can be included in the wall and strengthen their power.

Standing outside the woods, the village chief said: "Although everyone has the right to compete for the king, this beast forest is full of dangers, so I still advise everyone not to be too greedy and rash, and do what they can." ”

Everyone nodded, although they all wanted to become the king of hunting, but they would not joke with their lives.

At the sound of an order, the young hunters of the Hunter Village entered the woods one after another.

Xiao Luo walked to the edge of the woods, and then turned his head to look in the direction of the Ma family, with a slight provocation in his eyes: "I am the king hunter of this generation, and no one can change this fact." ”

With that, he walked towards the woods.

"Humph! It's too early to say that. Ma Ye's face sank, and then he said hello to the elders of the Ma family and stepped forward.

One by one, the young figures disappeared, but the enthusiasm of the crowd remained undiminished.

The King Hunt lasted for seven days, and they had no intention of leaving during this time.

Many people brought food with them and just found a random place to rest outside the woods.

Qin Shi is naturally still with the people of the Ma family.

A few people sat down, and then the village elder came over.

He swept Qin Shi and a few people, but he didn't care too much, sat down beside a few people, and then said to Ma Tianlu: "The old man is okay?" ”

"My father is in good health, thank you to the village chief for your concern." Ma Tianlu nodded.

"Hey, what happened back then, it was indeed me who was wrong, but after so many years, he still doesn't want to see me, hasn't the resentment in his heart been eliminated?" The village chief sighed.

Ma Tianru was silent and shook his head slowly: "I don't know this, but I think he shouldn't care about what happened back then." ”

"I hope so."

The village chief said, looking in the direction of the woods, sighing: "Time flies so fast, how similar this is to the situation back then, when I was fighting with Old Man Ma for the king of hunting." Today, it's our grandchildren who are competing. ”

"I heard that Xiao Luo captured a black bear alive, and this time the king hunt is probably in his pocket." Ma Tianlu's face was flat.

"It's too early to say that." The village chief smiled modestly, although he also thought so, but he was still very low-key in front of people.

After a few more words, the village chief left.

Qin Shi asked curiously: "Brother Ma, what grievances are there between the old man and the village chief?" ”

"It's not a secret either, most of the people in Hunter Village know about it." Ma Tianlu didn't hide it, and said: "Back then, my father competed with the village chief for the king hunting, do you guess the final result?" ”

"I heard yesterday that the village chief used to be the king hunter, in that case, I'm afraid that the village chief won, right?" Qin Shi said slowly.

However, Ma Tianlu shook his head: "It's not that simple, the two of them competed for the king of hunting back then, but in fact, the village chief was the losing side." ”

"Oh?" Qin Shi was stunned for a moment, but soon he was relieved.

Although Old Man Ma is low-key, he is an ancient warrior after all. Even if he wasn't great when he was young, he was definitely not comparable to ordinary hunters.

In that case, it is naturally difficult for the village chief to win.

Ma Tianlu continued: "Although my father won, he didn't go to Beast Mountain, and he only served as a hunting king for three days. ”

"Why is that?" Qin Shi asked.

"I took you to see my dad yesterday, and you must have seen that my dad wasn't originally from the Hunter Village. Therefore, the village chief used this reason to snatch away the honor of the king hunter. Ma Tianlu smiled bitterly: "The village chief is actually not bad, but he wants to go to the Beast Mountain to learn martial arts, so he did such a tasteless thing." At that time, my father was very angry and fought with him, chasing the village chief all over the village. ”

"There's still this thing."

Qin Shi smiled: "What about later?" ”

"Although my father was very unwilling, he did just come to the Hunter Village, so he didn't say anything, so he gave the Hunter King to the village chief. It's just a pity that the village chief went to Beast Mountain, and he came back only a month later, and Beast Mountain didn't look down on him. ”

Speaking of this, Ma Tianlu smiled: "At that time, my father knew about it, so he was naturally very happy. The village chief later found him and wanted to return the hunting king to him, but he did not agree, and he did not see the village chief in front of him in the future. ”

Qin Shi shook his head secretly, but he didn't expect that Old Man Ma was quite stubborn.

Of course, he can also imagine that Old Man Ma was ostracized at the beginning, and he was naturally in a bad mood. At that time, an accident had just happened in Fengshan, and Old Man Ma was alone, wanting to take revenge, and going to Beast Mountain to learn martial arts was his only chance.

And this opportunity was snatched away by the village chief, how could he forgive the other party?

Even if time passes, Old Man Ma has long been hated in his heart, but it is impossible for him not to care at all.

Therefore, it is not a good thing that he does not meet with the village chief.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye, and people came out of the woods one after another.

Some of them were empty-handed, disgraced and wounded. And some of them came out with their prey, looking quite happy.

However, now that they haven't even reached half the time, they have come out of it, and naturally they are not qualified to compete for the king hunter.

In the following time, more and more people came out.

And the people who are still in the woods are already a handful.

Ma Tianlu smiled: "Now the King Hunting Competition has really begun, and the next thing is to see the performance of Xiao Ye and the others." ”
