Chapter 21: Saving People and Shooting Bears

Xiulan pulled Sanwang into the house and looked at it carefully. said: "I am tall and strong, my mother looks back and thanks your second uncle and aunt." sighed again: "I don't know how your eldest brother is."

Sanwang hurriedly changed the topic and said: "If my mother wants to thank her, thank my fifth sister, she went up the mountain to eat the food at home." The second aunt only hurts the fifth brother, and she doesn't care about the fifth sister, is the mother kind to the fifth sister? Xiulan listened and immediately agreed. Sanwang didn't dare to say anything about Li Xiao's murder, he knew that he couldn't mention it, and it was best to forget about it. The rest of the family also deliberately forgot about it. Only her second aunt still minds.

On the second day of the Lunar New Year, Siya returned to Li's house for the New Year. heard about Li Xiao's previous incident, and cried with Li Xiaohao. Let Li Xiao promise that she can't provoke the beast anymore, nothing matters if she dies. Li Xiao and Zhang Cheng coaxed her for a long time before Siya burst into tears and laughed. Li Xiao felt that her fourth sister was her mother, and she really cared about her and felt sorry for her.

The eldest sister's family went to relatives and came back, but there was no news back. The second sister's family died on the road, and when the news was returned, the eldest aunt cried to death. The third sister's family went to Fucheng and sent back the news that they didn't plan to come back.

After the New Year, the old man secretly called Sanwang and asked, "You tell grandpa, what's wrong with your second aunt." Her attitude towards the five girls is wrong. Your second uncle said that this matter has something to do with you, so let's talk about it." When Sanwang heard his grandfather say this, he thought it was the second uncle who said something, but he didn't know that the old man was deceiving him. He opened his mouth to talk about what happened that day, and seeing that his grandfather's face was not good, he said a few words that were all his own fault. The old man waved his hand, signaling that he didn't have to blame himself. Then said solemnly: "The fifth girl did the right thing, don't tell anyone about this matter, your grandmother and your father can't say it, you know?" ”。 Sanwang nodded in agreement.

Winter goes to autumn, and this is the time when the green and yellow are not harvested. Because of the disaster, there are many people who sell houses and land, and sell their children and daughters.

Li Xiao wore her fourth brother's clothes for convenience. Every day, I took Erzhu up the mountain to hunt. The father and daughter took on the burden of the Li family.

Li Xiaohe and Erzhu walked on the mountain normally. The sound of a bear can be heard in the distance. Li Xiao knew that this thing was not something they could touch, and planned to leave with Erzhu. As soon as he turned to leave, he heard a human voice. Li Xiao glanced at Erzhu and said, "Dad, there is someone over there, let's go over and take a look." The crops are of good hearts, and Erzhu heard that there were people over there, so he agreed to go over and have a look. Erzhu also held a bow in his hand, walked in front of Li Xiao, and walked towards the sound.

When they arrived at the place, the two were taken aback. I saw a middle-aged man with a full beard, fighting with a bear all the time. The big man was seven feet tall, holding a large knife in his hand, and the blade of the knife was 2 feet long. Dahan had multiple wounds on his body, and his left arm was the most seriously injured and he could no longer lift it. The bear was huge, like a hill, a head taller than a middle-aged man. With such a gap, the bear is not much better. There was a dagger stuck in the bear's belly, and the dagger was completely submerged, and the blood flowed profusely. The sound they had heard before was probably the sound of the bear hair when the dagger entered the belly and the sound of the bear hurting the big man's arm. It can be seen that this middle-aged man is powerful. The ground was littered with bows and arrows, and other prey.

Li Xiao asked Erzhu to stay away, they were not strong men. If you are slapped by a bear, you will be seriously injured if you don't die.

Li Xiao was about to draw a bow and shoot an arrow, and the corner of his eye skimmed the bow and arrow on the ground. He secretly moved over, then picked up the bow on the ground, pulled the quiver and ran back. Xiong and Dahan paused at the same time, looked at Li Xiao at the same time, and continued to attack each other.

Li Xiao glanced at her father, and her father's gaze was obvious, if you don't save people, what are you doing with other people's things. She gestured at her father, meaning that this was easy to use. He turned his head and drew his bow, and put the quiver on his back. I thought this thing was good, I don't know what it was made of. It's expensive to look at. The quiver is also a good thing, if you put it upside down, the arrow will not fall down. If only I had such a set. Then I thought that now was not the time to think about this, so I quickly put my mind away.

She raised her hand and drew her bow and shot two arrows in a row. Two arrows hit the bear in the eye. The bear was blind and immediately went berserk.

Li Xiao saw the strong man running over quickly, grabbed Li Xiao and rushed to her father's side. That's fast.

The middle-aged man said: "Little brother is good at archery, you should be careful." Then he rushed over and cut the bear. Li thought carefully, catching up with you is not to run for your life, but to kill the bear. Then he raised his hand and shot two more arrows, only to see that the second arrow pierced the tail of the first arrow, and the first arrow was forced, and half of it went directly into the bear's neck. Li Xiao said: "The bear skin is so thick, such a good bow, such a good arrow, neither arrow killed." Then he shot another arrow, and the arrow hit the tail of the first arrow, and the first arrow split, and the third arrow went into the bear's neck through the middle of the first arrow. The bear fell to the ground with a thud. Li Xiao trembled twice with a feeling.

The middle-aged man thanked the two and said, "Thank you for your help, I caught this bear for the sake of this bear bile medicine." If you are not in a hurry, can you follow me to see my master, and I will thank you generously."

Erzhu hurriedly refused: "We are just passing by, no need, no need." Li Xiao hurriedly returned the bow and arrow, and said, "Uncle doesn't have to mind." Presumably, the uncle will also rush back to save people, so let's leave here."

When the middle-aged man saw that the two were leaving, he hurriedly shouted: "The two of you are staying, may I ask where it is, my master knows, and he will definitely thank the two."

Li Xiao didn't want to have too much contact with this person. hurriedly replied: "That's not necessary, we are all Zhuang family, not worth it." Then he pulled the two pillars and left.

The middle-aged man was not reluctant to see it, so let's go back and inquire. Then he packed up his things, picked up the bear and walked to the other end.

Li Xiao breathed a sigh of relief when he saw it, these people were not something they could befriend well.

The big man carried the bear to a manor, and the vast manor was heavily defended. A group of people walked out of the Zhuangzi, and one of them said with a happy face: "I hit the bear today, hurry, come here." Now the mother's illness can be eradicated."

The big man in the middle came to the main hall. He met the master and said, "There is one more person who has the credit for this bear hunt." Then he told him about the bear hunt.

The person in the hall said, "You wait for the two of you to save my wife, you go and check on the father and son, and then give help or give some benefits." Dahan should be leaving.

When the big man returned to the courtyard, he saw several other people talking around him. One of them said, "When did the elder brother practice this kind of archery, can you learn from the younger brother?" Let the brothers learn it".

The surname of the Han is Zhu Mingbiao. The person who spoke was surnamed Zhu, and the two had the same surname and were not relatives. But because they are all surnamed Zhu, Zhu Biao thinks that he is an old ancestor, and he takes care of him very much on weekdays, and has saved his life twice. Zhu Biao said: "How can I shoot such an arrow, that arrow is not my shot." I've met someone who is a master." And then left in everyone's amazement. Zhu Biao didn't elaborate, he knew that the little brother didn't want to be involved with him. But he must repay this favor.

While he was recuperating from his injuries, he asked people to inquire about several nearby villages. It was found that several nearby villages were devoid of hunters. I only heard that there were people in the Li Shan family in Lijia Village who could use arrows, and they used to go up the mountain to hunt.

Spring is busy, and Li Xiao can only go up the mountain to hunt some small prey by himself. Her father is now going to work in the fields. Li Xiao's archery skills, Erzhu is also assured. I followed her before just to fight off the prey.
