It hadn't snowed yet, but it was cold in the woods. The wind was also strong. She's on the other side today, and she hasn't been to this place in a long time. When he saw the rabbit, he immediately pulled the bow with his right hand and shot it, only hitting the rabbit's leg. sighed, but the right hand was still not good. Then pull out the arrow, tie the rabbit and put it in the basket. Seeing that the time was almost up, he walked back.

The modern Li Xiao is left-handed, shooting left-handed arrows. She also practiced left-handed arrows on weekdays, and the arrows were not missing. Because of the strength problem, the range is limited. Later, the old man volunteered to teach her archery, and Li Xiao had no choice but to practice right-handed arrows. You can't shoot arrows through Yang in a hundred steps, and arrows and arrows are not missing. In this way, even if your family sees it, they will think that she is too wicked.

With her soft right-handed arrow, the old man also praised her for being a genius and talented. It has to be checked every ten days, and Li Xiao's right-hand arrow is also slowly improving. Of course, it's not as good as a left-handed arrow. The arrow in her left hand was already able to fire three arrows in a row in a short period of time. It's a pity that there is no stopwatch. I can't count the time of the interval. In this way, she was able to hit some small animals every day. Add a sum of money to the home in the winter.

This winter is very different from usual, the weather is very cold, and it is unusual compared to last year. Before winter, it snowed heavily. The old man did not let his sons go into the city to work as casual workers. He thinks this year is worse than last year. What if the snow keeps falling, something happens to the family, and the gentlemen all go into the city again, what should a group of girls do? The children of the Li family are filial and obedient, so they all happily stay at home.

The old man repeatedly believed that the archery skills of the five girls were inherited from their family. Looking at the animals that Li Xiao took back every day, the living ones were raised, and the dead ones were eaten or put out of the window to freeze. Now there are 18 chickens and 5 rabbits in the house. The five girls are young, and they are all pheasants and hares. (She didn't dare to fight, and she couldn't resist going back, so she asked her family to go into the mountains to carry it, and she was scolded again, maybe she had to be grounded, so she stopped thinking and only hunted pheasants and hares.) The old man wanted to be a family of gentlemen who would do this craft, and everyone went up the mountain to hunt together, and there was one more entry in the family.

One morning, when Li Xiao came back, he saw that the whole family was in the yard, listening to the old man's praise. I heard the fourth sister say that it started with archery when my grandfather was a child, and has been talking about it until now. When she entered, the old man asked for a bow and arrow, and let them start shooting one by one. The morning passed, and everyone was too tired, and the old man was too tired. "It's so stupid, stupid, I also teach it like this, how can I teach it. You're going to be stupid, you can't do it like that." A few words to say the opposite. Li Xiao stood at the door of the room, looking at everyone, and realized in his heart, as far as your teachings are concerned, no one can learn them. Then silently bless everyone.

It lasted for three days, and the old man affirmed one thing, archery was only inherited from the five girls, and he gave up on the others. The men returned to the house with tears in their eyes and gratitude, and the women of the family were relieved to see it. The old man's archery storm is finally over.

Li Xiao went up the mountain again with an arrow. Starting today, she plans to practice firing two arrows at once. So I said hello to my grandfather on the first day, and asked the fourth sister to make her dry food (that is, corn tortillas). The next day, Li Xiao went up the mountain with arrows, found a safe and unoccupied place and began to practice archery. She ejaculated for a month before she got the hang of it. And you can fire all three arrows at once. A single arrow can shoot five arrows in a row. Li Xiaocong's archery talent in the previous life is vividly reflected.

She thought she was an arrow, and she didn't need to practice all day. The main reason for this is eating, Li Xiao eats dry food every day this month, and he can't eat anymore. She felt that she had done too much to herself. Then the hunting frenzy began. The surrounding rabbits and pheasants were all over by her.

It's the winter solstice, and it's getting colder. The snow is heavier. Go to bed when it's dark in the countryside, especially in winter, when it gets dark very early. The oil lamp is a luxury that children don't have. Li Xiaodong went to bed at 6 o'clock and got up at 3 o'clock in the morning, and she had slept enough for nine hours.

One night, Li Xiao got up as usual and prepared to go up the mountain. The door couldn't be opened, so she pushed and dragged it, and it took a lot of effort to push the door open. I found that the snow outside was so heavy that it was no longer on her knees, and it was still falling. It's pitch black.

Li Xiao hurriedly took a broom and called softly to her father while sweeping the snow on her father's door. At 3 o'clock in the morning, the adults were sleeping in Zhengxiang, apparently her father and mother didn't hear it. She didn't dare to shout loudly.

When I was in a hurry, I heard the voice of the old man in the main room. He patted his head, forgetting that the old man felt lighter. Hurriedly ran over, saw the old man pushing the door inside, and hurriedly said, "Grandpa, wait a minute." Then sweep the snow away from the door. The old man opened the door and looked startled. Hurriedly went into the house and called the old woman to get up, and asked Li Xiao to sweep the snow on the other people's doors. Then tell me not to knock on the door. After tossing for a quarter of an hour, everyone got up, one by one in a daze, apparently not waking up.

The old man arranged: "Hurry up and get a ladder and go up to clear the snow, such a big snow, the house will collapse." When everyone heard this, they were all in good spirits and hurriedly began to clear the snow. Then the old man took Li Xiao to the village chief's house, and the daughters-in-law helped clear the snow. After everyone finished clearing the snow, they followed their respective daughters-in-law to their respective parents-in-law's houses. The boys went to inform the other in-laws. Lijia Village is brightly lit. When it was dawn, everyone was so tired that they went back to rest. At noon, the village chief struck the gong and told everyone to go to his yard for a meeting. The old man went with the big pillar and the second pillar.

The village chief thanked Mr. Li in front of everyone, and said excitedly: "If it weren't for the old brother to wake up, our Lijia Village would be over, and it was Brother Li who woke me up in the middle of the night." Only two houses in our village collapsed because the houses were in disrepair, and they collapsed in the middle of the night, and no one came out. Other homes that had collapsed were also rescued. The two villages next door only have a dozen houses combined, and even the house of the village chief Wu has collapsed in half."

The more the crowd listened, the more frightened they became. Village Chief Li continued: "The two villages just found me, saying that they were going to take everyone to the provincial capital to escape. Otherwise, everyone will freeze to death this winter. See if anyone is willing to go along. If there is, it will be set off from the entrance of the village at the right time, and the head of the Wu family will lead. My family is going to go to the provincial capital with the head of Zhangjia Village, and this snow is not the only one that has affected our three villages. Other villages should also go to the county seat, which is overcrowded. ”

Listening, everyone's hearts sank a little. Village Chief Li said again: "We are leaving at the entrance of the village tomorrow, and we are willing to go, so let's go back and pack up." ”

Some of the families are very poor, and half of the family has collapsed, so they can only go back to pack up and go to the county seat first. Some people have money, so they are naturally willing to prepare to go to the provincial capital, after all, the provincial capital is large, there are many blessed households, and there are many relief for the victims.

Old Man Li walked back with the two pillars of the big pillar, and the hearts of the three masters were very heavy. They are a young family, with most children. It's not a good way to walk.
