Chapter 19: Crappy Archery

The spring morning is also filled with moisture, and although it is not as cold as winter, it is still cool, and the sunlight that shines down is divided into smaller patches between the branches and leaves of the trees, and the emerald green is lush in between. ~with~dream~small~say~щww~mеng~lā

Occasionally, small animals emerge from the haystack, poke their heads out to the left and right, and then pick up the seeds that look like pine cones under the trees, and the sound of insects chirps, showing full life in this receding white forest.

Phew――

The sound of hunting through the air, the swaying branches and leaves swayed gently, and the arrow feathers passed through the thick bushes, and before the startled prey could react, it had already penetrated its head, and after a few movements, it no longer struggled. As someone stepped out of the covered grass, Thrall pulled out the pruning that had been inserted in his prey, and then raised his prey in his hand with a hearty smile.

"The first prey of the day!"

"Hey, Sal really has yours."

"Not bad."

The cheers rang out one after another, this is the team of hunters from the village, after the most difficult winter, for a long time later, they don't have to have a headache for food, relying on their innate ability, hunting some forest animals, as long as they are not too impulsive, there will always be no danger, they have survived in this way before, if there is no big accident, it will probably be passed down from generation to generation in this forest in the future, As for whether life is good or bad, it all depends on the preferences of this forest.

If you are lucky, you can find prey in the forest, a pig and a dolphin with delicious meat, or a almost antelope, if you are unlucky, it is not surprising that you may not find anything for many days in a row, and they will starve for a few days, but they will not die, unless it is a long and cold day like winter, the rest of the time, you can always find food to eat in the forest, this is also the way of survival as a hunter, it is not cruel, because the real cruelty they have experienced, but it is definitely not wonderful.

If it weren't for Shen Yi, they might have spent their lives like this, or starved to death in a cold winter, or killed by a dangerous prey during a hunt, and Sal often had the idea that they had dedicated their lives to this lush forest, but ...... The meaning of living is probably to fight, no one wants to surrender their life and death, even in the hands of God, when the human city escaped, and living in the present.

It's just that now, it should be fortunate that they may have the opportunity to live a different life, he thinks of the land reclaimed outside the village that is pregnant with hope, and there are more things he talked about when talking to Shen Yi, the yellow rice fields are covered with the soil like waves, he can smell the fragrance of rice, the livestock that are raised are getting fatter and fatter in the fence, so they don't have to go out early to hunt, the children play outside the village, the smoke of the cooking will drift far away, it is a world where no one will starve to death, he feels a little longing, Even in a human city, he had never seen such a scene.

Realizing this, his gratitude swelled indescribably, and his gaze quickly fell on the back of the group, the human named "Possibility" who had brought them the name.

Shen Yi's figure was mixed among the orcs, hanging at the end of the team, Vivian climbed the tree, looked around, and occasionally picked the fruit, and the figure that jumped away would not settle down for a moment, don't find me any more poisonous fruits, he secretly prayed, for Vivian's talent, but he had a deep understanding, his eyes turned to the back, a little farther away, it was the figure of Isabella wolf Bèi holding the trunk of the tree and panting, some distance behind, it could be seen how lacking exercise she usually was, he thought, Shrugged his shoulders helplessly.

Then, his gaze fell on Thrall's hand with the cheers, and he had just seen Sal shoot an arrow with a bow, and the arrow feathers hit the prey at an impeccable angle, even in his eyes, he felt that the trajectory of this arrow was very beautiful, but it was ...... He doesn't know how to shoot arrows, if it's a modern weapon such as a pistol, he still knows some, as for the bow and arrow, he hasn't even touched it before, and it's impossible to talk about whether it's difficult or not.

Thinking like this, and then the idea that maybe he could try to make a pistol in the future rose in his heart, this is a delusion of boredom, not to mention that he hasn't even made steel yet, and it's still unknown whether gunpowder can be dispensed, he is not arrogant enough to think that he has the halo of the protagonist on his head, and he can make anything when he thinks of it, and some things are impossible to do with a passion for blood, in a sense, he is actually a realist, after all, it's one thing to want to get, and it's another thing to do, shook his head, He extinguished the unrealistic thoughts in his mind.

"Ah Yi, do you want to give it a try too?" Then noticing his gaze, Thrall raised his longbow with a hearty smile.

"This ...... Still no, I haven't touched a bow before. Shen Yi was actually a little eager to try, hesitated for a while, or shook his head, most of the people in his heart understood that Sal, who made a mention like this, did not have any malicious intentions, and after getting along for a long time, he could probably understand the thinking mode of the orcs a little, probably if I showed my hand, you also showed my hand, and then got together with each other, or jokingly said that you are not as good as me or something, and then patted each other's shoulders hard, or showed kindness or something, touted it, without any hypocrisy, this is really simpleIt's just that...... For bows and arrows, he really doesn't have much confidence, and if it is more than wrist strength, he is willing to accompany him.

"It's okay, just treat it as a pastime."

With that, Sal couldn't help but stuff the bow into his hand, he pulled the bowstring with a wry smile, and didn't continue to shirk: "Okay, then I'll try, there is no guarantee that I can shoot the prey." In response, he began to fantasize about the scene of his hundred steps through the Yang.

"Heh, Ah Yi can't be so unconfident, the worst among us is Vivian, you can't even compare to Vivian's archery."

"Look, is anyone talking about me?" Vivien, who was jumping around in the tree, stopped, turned her head, and with a curious expression, Isabella immediately followed from behind, stroking her chest and panting, but she couldn't help but glance at Shen Yi, and her eyes fell on the bow in his hand with a little curiosity.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, he gently pulled the bowstring, he had heard Seven Kills say before, what Mediterranean-style shooting, what Mongolian bow pulling method, for him, these are not understandable, thinking like this, he immediately imitated Guo Jing in the Legend of the Condor Heroes, and took a step with full momentum.

"The posture is good, the prey is the antelope cat under the tree...... Sal nodded, and then pointed in the direction not far away, but before he finished speaking, Shen Yi had already let go of his hand.

This was followed by ...... Whole petrification!

He blinked, and the others followed suit, and the arrow was stuck crookedly not far in front of him.

“…… See smiled, saw smiled......" Shen Yi's face couldn't help but flush slightly, and he whispered embarrassedly.

"It sucks, Ah Yi." Vivien did not hesitate to say what was in her mind, then took the longbow in his hand, pulled the bowstring and shot out, "beep-" into the tree, but scared the antelope away.

"Sal, what did you just say......"

"No, I didn't say anything just now."

……

***************************************************************************************************

"Ah Yi, your archery skills are so bad, even Vivian can't compare."

"Huh...... A crappy archery that didn't shoot even two meters. ”

Vivien, who was walking in front, turned her head, her tail swept proudly behind her, her fluffy fur was golden in the sun, she made a grimace, imitating his movements just now to make a bow gesture, followed by Isabella's echoing laughter, she covered her lips lightly, her eyes were curved like crescents, her face was full of smiles, as if she had finally discovered that the omnipotent Shen Yi was also not good at it, and they felt a little proud.

Looking at Vivian and Isabella's expressions, he couldn't help but feel annoyed: "I said okay, you guys have laughed until now, can't you understand the feelings of the person who drew the bow for the first time." ”

"Ah, that's the first time, how far did Vivien shoot an arrow for the first time?" Then Isabella pretended to be surprised and sighed, Shen Yi could swear that her expression was definitely a good explanation of what it means to have a black belly, and Vivian immediately muttered innocently: "Hmm...... I forgot about it, it was a long time ago, but it's definitely farther than Ah Yi's. ”

"Oh~ It turns out that it's farther than the teacher!" Isabella immediately pretended to be surprised, but the "teacher" in her mouth definitely did not mean any respect, she was definitely revenge for not seriously teaching her the orc language, although he was indeed a little irresponsible, yes, just a little, after all, holding grudges is a woman's patent.

After separating from Sal, Shen Yi, Vivien and Isabella explored in other directions of the forest, walking all the way in the soft soil, the broken light occasionally shining on his body, slightly warm, listening to the ridicule of the two, he couldn't help but start to fight back. "You sing and you harmonize, I don't remember this is the attitude you should have towards the owner."

"Owner?" ×2

"Have you forgotten that I am the one who cooks from morning till night? Strictly speaking, I'm the owner of both of you! ”

"How can this be, Vivien has also cooked things, okay?" Vivien protested with a fist at her fist.

"You were a murderous cook, and you almost made Sal go to see the beast god and his old man."

"What about me, I remember a ...... who helped too"

"yes, I almost burned down the house, which really helped!" Shen Yi debunked Isabella as a matter of course, and the latter blushed slightly.

“…… Woo, it's too much, I actually said that people helped a lot......" Isabella, who was exposed to the facts, blushed, Vivian took her hand and glared at Shen Yi, with a taste of hatred and hatred: "Huh, Ah Yi is a villain, archery is bad and loves to bully." ”

"Haha, I'm just bullying you, how about it? For tonight's dinner, you should be grateful and forget about the incident just now, haha~"

Then, Shen Yi's laughter echoed in the forest for a long time, accompanied by the strong but ineffective protests of the two young girls.
