Chapter 9: Spring Hunting
Winter is coming, and spring is just right. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
A group of people and hundreds of horses left Puyang City.
These people are all the children of the big clans in Puyang City. Wei Wuji is also among them.
Maybe it's because the spring is getting warmer. Although Wei Jun's illness did not get better, it also stabilized and did not deteriorate anymore, and on some sunny days, Wei Wuji also helped Wei Jun out to bask in the sun.
At the turn of the Qin and Han dynasties, it was not far from ancient times, and it was one of the activities of hunting the upper nobles. Now is the time of the year for spring hunting.
In terms of time, the spring hunt is actually a bit early at this moment, but there has been news from Xianyang that the second emperor will be touring east in the spring. Calculate the time, just when it hit the spring hunt, but the second emperor toured the east of Qin Chi Road, and the East Road passed by Puyang, and at that time, the whole process of martial law in Puyang City, not to mention hundreds of people out of the city to hunt. Therefore, this year's spring hunt has been brought forward.
If this is just the case, Wei Wuji may not come out, and Puyang Zhu will not participate in the spring hunt because of filial piety. But Pu Yangzhu sent a private letter to Wei Wuji, and after Wei Wuji read it, he immediately prepared to participate in this safari.
The letter reads: "Wei Lipu has been in Pu for 30 years, although he still has a legacy in Pu, but it is not enough for the son to use. The son wants to do a big thing, the first is to win people, when the spring hunt, Puyang teenagers gather, and the people who are needed by the son. Childe wants to convince the public, and it is the right time. ”
Wei Wuji knew that what he wanted to do could never be done by sitting at home. And he is young and shallow, and those old foxes who have gone through strong winds and waves can't impress themselves at all. Therefore, if you want to win people, it is best to choose from the Puyang youth.
Those who are qualified to come out for spring hunting have a status in Puyang. Minimum literacy. Wei Wuji just chose the person he could use from it.
But Wei Wuji observes others, and others are observing themselves.
Wei Boyu didn't go hunting, but there were several people in the hunting people, and they didn't have to do anything, just report back on Wei Wuji's every move.
Since Wei Boyu has decided, he will naturally start to act.
He visited the relics of the country, and several times brought the relics of the defense to visit the king.
Although there was no official work, in Puyang City, the atmosphere of the remnants of the patriotic country watching and helping each other was a little more. It was precisely because of this that he paid more attention to Wei Wuji.
Wei Jun's body bones, in Wei Boyu's opinion, are no more than a few years, less than a year. In this way, Wei Wuji is an important candidate.
There are hundreds of people in the spring hunt, and behind each teenager, there are several family members. Protect them. The group traveled eastward.
However, the spring is cold, and there is not much prey to see. However, these aristocratic teenagers did not come out to hunt for their prey.
In half a day, everyone just beat some rabbits and jackals. Everybody is not addicted.
I don't know who said: "There are tigers in the east mountain, why don't we go tiger hunting?" ”
The so-called spring hunting is searching, summer hunting is seedlings, autumn hunting is hunting, and winter hunting is hunting. Spring is not the time for hunting, and when hunting in spring, the number of prey must be counted, and only when there are more can be hunted, and pregnant beasts cannot be hunted, and so on.
I can't shoot much prey.
And this time the time of hunting has been moved forward for a while, and the spring cold has not gone, let alone the time for hunting. It's normal if you don't fight much, but it's not normal if you fight too much.
One person said, "Childe, how about going tiger hunting together?" ”
The person who spoke was Gongsun Meng, Wei Wuji only met today, and they already sympathized with each other, without him, this Gongsun Meng is a master, and he plays with bows and arrows very well. Wei Wuji's conceit has been crossing over for more than a few years. He worked the way of the bow and arrow, but he didn't dare to say that he could defeat Gongsun Meng.
The people who want to hunt tigers are all masters among this group of teenagers, and the so-called masters are bold and have no ability, how dare they propose tiger hunting.
Wei Wuji said secretly: "Just look at their abilities." "This time in the spring hunt, Wei Wuji also found a lot of good players, not to mention the rest, at least in terms of martial arts is worth mentioning.
Wei Wuji was about to agree. Wei Xiong hurriedly persuaded: "Childe, this is the time when things in the forest are scarce. The beast of prey could not find food, and it was the time of ferocity. ”
Wei Wuji waved his hand and said, "Brother Gongsun invites." How could I not go? ”
Wei Wuji didn't know that the beast was fierce at this moment, but he knew the young man's heart even more, if he had recently refused. In Puyang's circle, his reputation immediately plummeted. Not to mention recruiting talent. Therefore, this tiger hunt, I not only want to be out, but also to be brilliant, and I have to hunt a tiger.
The group agreed, and dozens of horsemen left the brigade and headed east.
At the turn of the Qin and Han dynasties, the land of the Central Plains has not yet been completely reclaimed. Far away from Puyang City, it is already completely mountainous, forest and wilderness, and there are no people.
The group walked for several miles, and hunted some wild beasts, but they did not see any of them.
It was past noon, and the group found an open space and roasted the game they had hunted to eat.
Gongsun Meng said: "Is our news wrong? ”
You can't go wrong. A man named Wei Man said: "It's not a day or two that there is a tiger plague here, how can we make a fake, wait a while, we will go to the east more, we will definitely encounter it." ”
Wei Man is a child of the Wei family, and he is still close to Wei Wuji after all. Wei Wuji smiled: "You have to be careful, don't be eaten by tigers." ”
Wei Man smiled lightly: "How is it possible." ”
Wei Man had almost eaten, and felt something strange in his abdomen, so he got up and said, "I'll go and make it easier." ”
After a while, he entered behind a tree, a little further away from everyone, and only a figure could be seen here.
Wei Wuji was eating barbecue, when he suddenly heard the neighing of the horses behind him, and the horses behind him were restless, panting, and kept stomping on the ground with the horse's hooves, digging a small hole in the ground.
Wei Wuji saw at a glance that it was not just his own horses, but all the horses.
Immediately said secretly: "Not good." "I lost the barbecue, and without saying a word, I picked up the bow and arrow.
Wei Wuji's reaction was not slow, but someone reacted faster than Wei Wuji, it was Wei Xiong, Wei Xiong drew his sword in his hand at the moment, and shouted: "Wei Man is back." ”
Wei Man poked his head over and said, "What's wrong?" ”
Wei Wuji's eyes shrank, and he saw a phantom shadow rushing from behind Wei Man, okay, a big worm, one zhang long, landed silently, and pounced behind Wei Man, and Wei Man didn't notice it yet.
As soon as Wei Wuji's bow and arrow rang out, it instantly sank into the shoulder of the big insect.
The big insect was in pain and roared. The roar of the tiger was like a thunderbolt, shaking the trees and causing the moving remnants of snow to fall.
Wei Wuji except for a few war horses that were still steady, and the rest of the horses broke free of the reins, neighed, and ran away.
Wei Man was so dizzy that he felt that as soon as his back sank, he was thrown to the ground by a big insect.
Wei Wuji's arrows were scattered, and in an instant, the arrow shadow seemed to shoot towards the big insect like a straight line. Between breaths, the big worm was hit by more than a dozen arrows.
However, it didn't seem to have any effect at all, but he was even more annoyed, letting go of Wei Man and rushing towards Wei Wuji.
This is also to blame Wei Wuji, the power of ancient bows and arrows is already limited, don't look at Wei Wuji's more than a dozen arrows shot at the big insect in a row. However, the big insect moved extremely fast, and these dozen arrows did not hit the vital point again.
The big worm pounced with the whirring sound of the wind, and it was about to pounce on Wei Wuji. But he heard a violent shout: "Evil beasts dare to be." ”
A snowy sword light flashed, and the big insect screamed. But it was Wei Xiong who stood in front of Wei Wuji.
However, the big insect is extremely powerful, Wei Xiong only resisted twice, and the long sword in his hand was knocked away, and he didn't know where it flew away.
The big worm's claws grabbed at the bear.
This time it was grasped, Wei Xiong was definitely disemboweled, and he couldn't die anymore.
And Wei Wuji didn't shoot arrows anymore, not because Wei Wuji was scared, or for some other reason, but because Wei Wuji didn't have arrows.
It was time to eat, and Wei Wuji's arrows were all on the horses, and he only carried half a pot of arrows with him.
Just after a round of rapid shooting, Wei Wuji touched the quiver, and there was only one arrow left.
Within this arrow, if he couldn't shoot the big worm, Wei Wuji didn't have to think about the big dream of recovering the country, but wondered if the heavens would give him a second chance to cross.
Wei Wuji is very self-aware, and he is quite good at bows and arrows, but he really fights tigers in person, I'm sorry, he is not Wu Song.
