In the vast North Mountain, as Li Yan went deeper into the forest, it was extraordinarily quiet, with only a few birds and insects, and the horse's hooves stepped on the dead branches and leaves on the ground to make a "click" sound.

Li Yan held the reins with one hand, put the other hand on the saddle, held his breath, and wanted to detect the traces of the prey.

Suddenly, Li Yan heard the cry of yellow sheep coming from the mountain basin not far ahead, and the uneven cry was like a flock of yellow sheep.

Li Yan hurriedly took off the longbow behind his back, grabbed an arrow from the quiver, and put it on the bowstring.

This is a two-stone strong bow, and it takes a lot of physical strength every time, Li Yan pulled the string slightly after taking the arrow, bent down and lowered his head to stick to the horse's back, and slowly walked forward.

Jueying seemed to feel the tension and excitement in his master's heart, and walked slowly step by step, as if he was afraid of making too much noise and startling the yellow sheep in front of him.

As the distance got closer and closer, Li Yan could clearly hear the sound of the sheep in the basin in front of him gnawing on the young leaves, and his heartbeat seemed to be speeding up.

Passing through the small hill in front, Li Yan sitting on horseback finally saw clearly, this is indeed a group of yellow sheep, the yellow sheep of later generations have already been killed to the point of extinction, the yellow-backed and white-bellied yellow sheep are leisurely eating the tender leaves at the moment, and they are not aware that Li Yan is slowly approaching, three male yellow sheep and seven or eight female yellow sheep and two cubs.

Li Yan sat on horseback and was only a hundred steps away from the yellow sheep, holding his breath and concentrating, holding the longbow in his left hand, and pulling the string with an arrow in his right hand, the bowstring was pulled away a little bit, the longbow was slowly bent, and the arrow was facing a yellow sheep with horns on his head at the leader of the yellow sheep.

With the increase of Li Yan's strength to pull the bow, the bowstring was almost full, and the shadow suddenly snorted, and the yellow sheep who were eating instantly stopped eating the young leaves, and the ears were erected.

The moment the yellow sheep saw Li Yan, it let out a sharp cry, and at this moment, the arrow "poof" penetrated its neck, and the penetrating power of the two-stone strong bow could be seen.

The yellow sheep immediately scattered and fled, even the cubs fled quickly to the foothills on both sides, this kind of yellow sheep even on the cliff was like running on the flat ground, and disappeared without a trace in an instant.

Li Yan rode his horse to the mountain basin, and after getting off the horse, he saw that the ram on the ground had lost his breath, and it was estimated that there were hundreds of catties, it was still early, if it went well, it was okay to hunt a few more prey, and it was definitely not convenient to take this ram with him, especially the long horns that were twisted and twisted, which were indeed not suitable to take with him.

Li Yan untied the thorn hidden in the calf, cut off the left ear of the yellow sheep and threw it into the quiver, dragged the yellow sheep aside and covered it with a branch, and stopped by to bring it back when he returned.

Then Li Yan marked the surrounding trees with military thorns, so that he didn't even know where he was. After making the mark, Li Yan jumped on his horse, ready to hunt more prey forward.

Maybe it was because the movement of the yellow sheep fleeing in all directions just now was too big, and Li Yan walked forward for half an hour and still didn't find any prey worth shooting.

On the way, Li Yan saw a leopard gnawing on the branch of a tree that only half of the carcass of a wild boar remained, but the leopard's speed was too fast. When Li Yan first saw it, the leopard jumped to the ground, and ran away without a trace in the blink of an eye, Li Yan didn't even have a chance to bend his bow and arrows.

Li Yan felt a little sorry in his heart, after all, leopard skin can still be used to make coats. But since he ran away, Li Yan didn't continue to worry about it.

Li Yan slowly walked along a faintly visible path in the mountain stream, this path is estimated to have been passed by Orion a lot, and slowly seemed to have walked out of a road.

Hunting is not only a test of one's riding and archery ability, but also a physical work, and there must be enough patience.

Li Yan rode the shadow, jolting in the forest, and the waterfall flowing down the mountain stream made a "whooshing" sound of water. Li Yan dismounted and led the Jueying to the waterhole to let it drink, Li Yan washed his face, and suddenly felt that the whole person was sober.

After resting for half an hour, Li Yan rode the Shadow to continue looking for prey in the dense forest.

Suddenly, Li Yan saw a flickering figure in the shade under the big tree in the distance.

"Sika deer! It turned out to be a sika deer. Li Yan exclaimed in his heart.

It is a fat stag with towering antlers coiled on its head and yellow and white patterns on its body. At the moment, he was half-lying on the ground, licking the moss on the stone with his tongue.

Li Yan was extremely excited in his heart, looking at the antlers entrenched on the head of the sika deer, and his eyes seemed to be bursting with fire.

After Li Yan put the arrow on the bowstring, he didn't dare to breathe, and pulled the bowstring until it was full. aimed at the head of the sika deer, trying to kill with one blow.

At this moment, the sika deer was still completely defenseless, Li Yan silently counted, "whew", and the arrow after the string was cut straight into the deer's head.

Suddenly, the sika deer's astute ears flashed, and it turned its head to look at Li Yan.

With a "bang", the arrow hit the antlers of the sika deer, and the sika deer suddenly jumped up from the ground and rushed to the depths of the forest.

"Damn! Just a little bit. Li Yan scolded secretly in his heart, to see that the success was done, and now it was a failure.

Li Yan's mind was spinning, and he thought in his heart that he couldn't miss this opportunity. Immediately took out an arrow from the quiver, and after setting the string, Li Yan urged the shadow to chase in the direction of the sika deer's escape.

"Drive"! At this moment, Li Yan was no longer worried about disturbing the prey, and the figure of the sika deer in front of him was looming in the forest.

As we went deeper and deeper into the North Mountain, the path in the forest was no longer visible, and it was already close to the belly of the North Mountain, and there were thorny vines everywhere blocking the way.

Several times to catch up, the sika deer fled to the thorny place, and Li Yan could only go around several times.

In order to escape for his life, the sika deer is also exerting all his strength at this moment. Li Yan rode the shadow and chased after him closely, with no intention of giving up.

Suddenly, after turning a small hill, Li Yan found that the sika deer was gone.

Li Yan chased for more than ten miles, but this time he didn't even see the shadow of the sika deer, as if he had disappeared.

The prey that was about to be in hand was gone. Li Yan finally understood what it was like to "cook a duck flew" at this moment.

But Li Yan was really extremely unwilling in his heart, held his breath, calmed down and tried to see if he could hear the slightest movement.

After a while, there was still no sound in the dense forest, and the sika deer seemed to have evaporated from the forest.

Li Yan didn't dare to relax in the slightest, holding the bow and stringing, as long as the sika deer appeared again, Li Yan would definitely shoot the arrow in his hand without hesitation.

Li Yan always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't remember it, because he had been chasing the sika deer here, and it was impossible for him to disappear in an instant.

Moreover, there are dense dead leaves and dead branches on the ground, and even if the sika deer escapes, it will always make a sound.

In the woods at this moment, quietly, the shadow carried Li Yan in the mountains for several hours, and he was also panting.

Suddenly, a lizard the color of a dead branch came out of the dead leaves on the ground, and when it saw Li Yan, it quickly twisted its tail and walked away.

"Lizard, camouflage! I understand! After Li Yan saw the escaped lizard, he finally understood the mystery.

The sika deer definitely didn't run away, it seemed to know that Li Yan would keep chasing after him. Therefore, he simply didn't leave, and wanted to use the withered branches and leaves all over the ground, which was really a deception, and the golden cicada was out of its shell.

After Li Yan figured it out, he immediately cheered up. Success or failure is here, looking at the withered yellow leaves all over the ground, I don't dare to be careless at all.

"There it is!" Li Yan shouted in his heart.

Li Yan finally discovered the hiding place of the sika deer, at this moment the sika deer was motionless between the two big trees, the whole head was buried in the ground, and from a distance, the circling antlers of the sika deer were like dead branches.

No wonder, I didn't see you after looking for you for a long time, and this disguise is really powerful.

Li Yan took the bow to pull the string full in the blink of an eye, and at this moment, Li Yan was excited in his heart, usually feeling that it would be a little difficult to pull the string with these two stone bows, but now he felt full of strength.

Li Yan was already thinking about how to deal with such a big sika deer.

The sika deer in the distance suddenly leaned forward, "not good" Li Yan shouted, the arrow in his hand was off the string, and the arrow cast by pig iron disappeared into the head of the sika deer in an instant, and the sika deer kicked wildly with four hooves, and there was no movement for a while.

Li Yan rode to the place where the sika deer was killed and dismounted, and saw that the sika deer was stuck in the front leg with an arrow, which ran through the entire front leg. No wonder the sika deer suddenly leaned forward.

"Phew!" The sound of reining in the horse came, and Li Yan saw clearly that the person who came was the thunder that met at the foot of the mountain.

After Lei Ming approached, he got off his horse, bowed slightly, and said, "Yan Gongzi, what a coincidence. ”

"Haha! It turned out to be Captain Lei, and I thought it was someone here. Li Yan said with a smile.

"It's itchy for a while, and I disturbed Gongzi Yaxing, so I'll forgive me." Lei Ming said neither humbly nor arrogantly.

Li Yan saw that Lei Ming was holding a huge longbow in his hand, the bow handle was inlaid with gems, and the tips of the bows on both sides turned out to be the shape of dragon heads, "three-stone bow" Li Yan said in shock. The thunder just now was an arrow shot at least one hundred and fifty paces away, a three-stone strong bow!

"Thank you Captain Lei for your help, but this deer is of great use to me, and he will thank him again in the future." Li Yan clenched his fists and said.

"It doesn't matter. Take it away if you need it! Lei didn't come for the prince's reward, so the son didn't blame Lei for disturbing the prince's interest. Lei still had to hunt a few sheep and bring them back to the group of rabbits below, so he said goodbye first. Lei Ming said and got on his horse, and left in a blink of an eye.

This is definitely a good general's talent, Li Yan's opinion on Lei Ming in his heart. With this arrow method alone, Xiliang is almost invincible, with a strong bow of three stones, Li Yan in the country doesn't know who can pull it open.

Li Yan knew that there was a spirit treasure bow in the palace, which was worn by the ancestors. Li Guang, the first owner of the Lingbao Bow, was already the sixteenth to Li Wei, and for Li Yan, he was the eighteenth grandson of Li Guang. It is said that within 100 paces of the Lingbao bow, it can shoot through boulders. But this generation is not as good as the generation, no one can use the spirit treasure bow after Li Guang, and it has only been passed down as a family heirloom for hundreds of years.

It took Li Yan nearly half an hour to remove the sika deer's antlers with military thorns, because the sika deer had the circling antlers and couldn't put them on horseback.

Li Yan found some vines, tied the antlers behind his back, and then got the more than 100 catties of sika deer on horseback, ready to go back.
