Chapter 101: Sharp Arrows
The scene of Fan Li's first time seeing the autumn hunt was so spectacular. An army of tens of thousands, from hundreds of miles away, drove all kinds of wild beasts to the central hunting grounds. There are more beasts on this side of the central hunting ground.
King Wu led Xi Shi and Zheng Dan to hunt every day, and they harvested a lot. Xi Shi and Zheng Dan were wearing tight clothes, draped in big hats outside, riding horses and shooting arrows, looking heroic and charming. This is a feast for Bo Yao's eyes.
Fan Li looked at Bo Yao's greedy statue, and couldn't help but laugh secretly in his heart.
Those who were soldiers could also freely watch the two beauties without being blamed, and they were very excited, and everyone was brave in the hunt, and they all competed for the first, and the atmosphere was very high.
Wu Zixu arranged the army and also rode a horse to accompany the king to hunt.
The ministers surrounded King Wu and encountered wild sheep, roe deer, Shiba dogs, badger pigs, rabbits, and other small and medium-sized beasts, so they let King Wu and Xi Shi Zheng Dan go hunting. When encountering wolves, tigers, lions and other large beasts, the soldiers will protect King Wu and the beauties, and others will deal with those beasts. to ensure the safety of the king.
In the twenty-first century, Fan Li lived in his previous life. The area around Wuyue is densely populated and the society is prosperous, and there are no wild animals left, and people have to spend money to go to the zoo to see wild animals if they want to see them.
But while King Wu was hunting, he saw almost all the wild animals in the world. He knew that in addition to the lack of science and technology in later generations, the fundamental reason was the sparse population.
The wars that lasted for hundreds of years consumed the population so much that the population at that time was only a few tenths of that of later generations.
Fan Li has had too much emotion in his heart for the past few days.
Sometimes, Xi Shi Zheng Dan will also have some hunting, hitting some pheasants and hares or something, although it is just a coincidence, but it still makes Xi Shi Zheng Dan excited, shouting happily, and their coquettish laughter floats on the hunting ground.
King Wu saw that the two beauties were happy and happy, and he swept away the depression in the palace, and his heart was also very happy. After all, the purpose of organizing this autumn hunting activity is to make the two beauties happy.
Wild game is eaten every day, and although the cooking method is simple and crude, this camping life is full of freshness and excitement.
At night, eating meat and drinking wine around the bonfire, when the interest comes, Xi Shi Zheng Dan will also sing a song, or dance by the moonlight.
The soldiers cheered loudly and applauded. Although he was a little presumptuous, because he was happy, King Wu did not blame, and the ministers did not spoil the fun.
On this morning, the morning glow was like fire. Fan Li said to King Wu: "King Qiyu, I'm afraid the weather is not good, are we still going hunting today?" β
King Wu said to Xi Shi Zheng Dan: "Qingqing, are you still going today?" If we're tired, how about we take a day off? β
Xi Shi said, "No, I still have to play." β
Zheng Dan said: "I haven't hit a prey for two days, I must hit a rabbit today." β
King Wu looked at the sky, the morning glow disappeared in the sky, and the clouds thickened. King Wu said: "We are playing within ten miles of the camp today, and if it rains, we can come back quickly." β
After breakfast, everyone prepared bows and arrows, and everyone got on their horses, surrounded King Wu, and entered the hunting ground.
Suddenly, a roe deer jumped up in front of him, and Xi Shi took a bow and opened an arrow, and by chance, an arrow hit the roe deer.
"OhβI shot!"
Shih Tzu cheered. His face turned red with excitement. But her bow was small, and although she shot her prey, it was not fatal, and the roe deer fled with arrows.
Shih Tzu shouted, "Oops, it's going to run!" β
Fan Li said: "I came, unhurriedly pulled out an arrow, put it on the bow, pulled the bow like a full moon, "boom", an arrow shot through the neck of the roe deer, the beast jumped up, fell to the ground and did not move.
"Oh-" cheers rang out.
Zheng Dan was unhappy, "I'm too back, I can't hit anything." β
Fan Li smiled and said a few words in King Wu's ear, King Wu nodded, and quietly ordered to go down, and when he saw the prey again, no one was allowed to fight, so he rushed to Zheng Dan and asked her to fight.
Thick clouds covered the sky, and a few drops of rain fell from time to time, but everyone's interest was undiminished, especially Zheng Dan, who seemed to mean that he would not give up if he didn't hit the prey today.
Fan Li said to King Wu: "King, the weather is not good, close the team, otherwise everyone will be drenched in the rain." β
King Wu looked at the sky and said, "Wait a little longer, if you can't catch the prey, Mrs. Haoguo will be unhappy." β
"Bunny!" Someone screamed softly.
Sure enough, a white hare emerged from the bushes, leaped into the open ground, stood up vigilantly, looked around, and then lowered itself and nibbled on the tender grass shoots.
As soon as King Wu waved his hand, everyone stopped, did not squeak, and did not move.
Zheng Dan said excitedly and said, "I'm coming!" He drew an arrow and shot it with a whoosh, and struck the hare in the heart, and the hare jumped and fell to the ground without moving.
"OhβI shot!" Zheng Dan shouted.
The soldier coaxed: "Mrs. Haoguo, the archerβ"
Zheng Dan slapped the horse's buttocks, and the horse rushed forward like an arrow. As soon as King Wu waved his hand, everyone stopped, letting Zheng Dan pick up the prey and enjoy the joy of victory alone.
Fan Li bit his lip and looked back at Zimei, who nodded slightly. Indicates that everything is arranged.
Fan Li looked at Zheng Dan's back, couldn't help biting his lip, with a slightly heartbroken expression on his face, thinking, little sister, your calamity has arrived, Fan Li is sorry for you......
The rabbit was less than a hundred paces away, and Zheng Dan's horse ran to it in a blink of an eye, and was about to dismount to pick up the prey, when something unexpected happened.
I only heard the sound of the wind suddenly rising, and when the wind passed, a colorful tiger jumped out of the bushes, roared, and pounced on Zheng Dan.
As soon as Zheng Dan's horse saw the beast, it chirped, raised its front legs, and stood upright.
Zheng Dan screamed and fell off the horse. The horse jumped and fled, and the tiger roared and pounced on Zheng Dan.
Zheng Dan rolled on the spot, dodged the tiger's pounce, jumped up, and ran away. The tiger then came after him,
This sudden situation stunned everyone at once. King Wu blurted out: "Quick, save Zheng Dan!" β
Xiangguo Wu Zixu, seeing that the situation was urgent, didn't have time to think about it, so he hurriedly took a bow and opened an arrow, and with a "whoosh" sound, he shot an arrow.
Zheng Dan didn't run a few steps, the tiger had already caught up, jumped forward, and pounced. Zheng Dan panicked, flashed to the side, just as Wu Zixu's arrow flew in. Inserted into Zheng Dan's chest impartially.
The tiger, when he saw Zheng Dan falling, pounced on it with his mouth wide open.
Fan Li followed Wu Zixu with an arrow and hit the tiger's neck. The tiger was in pain, roared, didn't care about Zheng Dan, turned around, and escaped into the bushes.
"Zheng Danβ" King Wu shouted, urging his horse to run towards Zheng Dan.
"Click!" Suddenly there was a purple light in the clouds, followed by a huge thunder rarely seen in autumn.
"Wow-" The rain poured down. The heavens and the earth suddenly darkened, and the weeds and trees trembled in the heavy rain.
King Wu's horse galloped, jumped off the horse, picked up Zheng Dan, turned around and shouted: "Wu Zixu, it was you who killed Zheng Dan, I am not finished with you!" β
