Chapter 330: Kata

Jiuzhi Mountain, this mountain range is located in the north of Chang'an City. The pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info across the northern part of the Guanzhong Plain. The mountains are undulating, the peaks are upright, the dense forests and strange stones are all over, and there are waterfalls and silver springs, and the scenery is very good. In the early years of the dynasty, Emperor Taizong passed through this place many times on a hunting trip, and liked it because of its upright and strange mountains and strange stones.

Because this mountain is close to Chang'an, when the weather is clear, you can see its majestic posture from Chang'an. Wei Zheng, a generation of admonitions, once looked at this mountain with Taizong, and it was rare to give advice in a roundabout way.

This mountain is also where many mausoleums are located, and Taizong and Empress Changsun were buried together in the Zhaoling Tomb, which is also in this mountain. But don't worry, this mountain is very big, Li Chen came here to hunt, don't worry about what to collide with.

In the afternoon, a group of people and horses came here, and the camp was originally empty, only the tents that had been set up in advance, but now they were all filled with people, and the camp was instantly full of life. It was getting late, the people and horses were busy camping, Li Chen walked into the center, the largest, and it would be gorgeous.

'Everyone, it's late today, and the hunt will wait for tomorrow. **** Zhen took Li Chen to his tent and let Li Chen rest for one night.

Walking into the tent, it is quite rich and gorgeous, exquisite and meticulous, and in the middle is a large bed made of many animal skins, spread out, and composed.

This tent is very large, and Li Chen estimates that dozens of people live here, and they can still roll on the ground. So in addition to the big bed in the middle, it was also separated from the inside and outside, which was a place for serving palace maids and eunuchs. Of course, it is impossible to get as big as it is, the main thing is to give those people a place to avoid and leave some privacy for the emperor.

The next day, early in the morning, Li Chen got up. Putting on the prepared bright yellow hunting suit, Li Chen was in front of the large glass mirror, looking left and right, and it was very smelly. Serving Li Chen well, Yang Er also changed into a strong suit, the hunting suit used by the woman for hunting, it looks also heroic and cool, and it shows that her figure is perfect, with long legs, thin waist, and hips.

Li Chense Mimi had to step forward, Yang Er was alert, jumped to the side like a deer, and said angrily, "You haven't gone out yet, everyone is waiting." ’

'I'm the emperor, just let them wait, what's the matter.' Li Chen smiled and grinned, and Yang Er ran around the big bed, "Pervert, you don't want to lose face." I still want to save face. The two fought for a while, Yang Er begged for mercy, Li Chenyin smiled and said that she wanted her to wear such a bed at night, so she was released.

When he got outside, everyone was really waiting for him, Li Chen got on the horse, and the whole team moved, heading towards the hunting ground.

A pair of centaurs entered the hunting grounds, the drums sounded, and a pair of drummers also rode horses, with drums tied to their waists, and beat the drums. The hunt is about to begin.

Li Chen was so excited that he raised his bow and prepared to set off hunting, but there was no movement around him. At this time, Li Chen's mind flashed, how he hunted in the first place, no wonder no one moved.

At this time, an officer of the military department appeared and read out the Kada order first. It's so troublesome, because in this year, it's called Kada no Kei, and it's a formal ceremony. It's not the kind of model where the emperor takes people and runs out to hunt by himself.

Of course, that kind of simple mode can also be hunting, and it doesn't have to be so formal, but **** Zhen is quite professional, and he has to do things after collecting money, so he changed the ceremony of hunting fields that was originally carried out about winter to be held now. Make it luxurious and formal, and my father-in-law won't take your money in vain.

When the official finished reading, the drum corps picked up the trumpet and blew it. At this moment, a lot of flags were erected around the hunting ground, surrounding the entire hunting ground. Many people under the banner, hearing the sound of the trumpet, began to drive away the beasts and drove them in the direction of the south.

These people, however, had entered the hunting ground the day before. When they reached the hunting ground, they set up the enclosure during the night, enclosed the hunting ground, leaving a gap in the south, and then gathered under the flags, and when the trumpets were sounded, they beat the gongs and drums, took the flying eagles, and began to drive out the wild beasts.

This trumpet is sounded three times in total, symbolizing the exorcism of the beast three times. After the first beasts were driven out, the retinue began to prepare arrows. At the second sound, the attendants offered their bows and arrows. At the third sound, the emperor began to shoot.

Li Chen took the arrows from the ground of his entourage, slowly drew the bow, and filled the bow with one stone, the string was empty, and the arrow was shot. Seeing that in the blink of an eye, Li Chen shot the arrow into the body of a deer, and shot it directly into the neck impartially, and the big deer, swaying, struggled forward a few steps by inertia, and fell.

The crowd cheered, and then, there was a flurry of arrows. Li Chen shot an arrow from the head, symbolizing the beginning of the hunt, and the people under him were free to shoot their bows.

'Drive. Li Chen rode his horse and chased after the prey, and the others also moved. From the sky, you can see that the original gathering is a large mass of colors, blurring in the slightly yellowish earth.

Li Chen rode his horse to chase the prey, followed by a bunch of people, who were responsible for protecting safety and picking up prey. There is also a flag symbolizing the Son of Heaven, Da Sui, swaggering.

Li Chen skillfully pulled out an arrow, mounted a bow, aimed at a rushing roe deer, and shot an arrow, hitting the target. At this time, on the back of the horse behind him, a mass of earthy yellow things rushed out, and pounced on it, knocking down the roe deer that was still struggling after being hit by the arrow.

This earthy yellow thing has a little black pattern on its body, like a leopard, but it is not a leopard, it is called a lynx. It's a bit like a cat, but it's a little bigger, and the ears are bigger than the cat's, and it's very distinctive, and there's a pinch of hair on it, and I don't know what it's used for.

This is a well-trained hunting helper. As soon as Li Chen shoots the prey, he will rush out, knock down the prey, and take it in his mouth or drag it back.

Li Chen looked around and looked at the entire hunting ground. It wasn't a rare thing for him to take this lynx with him. The most common is a hunting dog called a greyhound. Its head, which is very narrow and long, and its nose is also very pointed, giving it a sense of cleverness.

The body is quite large, and the body is slender. With a slender waist, slanted shoulders and thin legs, and a slender and arched neck, with his narrow and long head, it gives people the impression of being flexible and fast.

In addition to this kind of dog, Li Chen also saw a big dog that looked like a lion, and he recognized it at a glance, this is a Tibetan mastiff, the kind of dog that in modern times, each one is expensive.

If this is not unusual, it is even more rare to have a golden leopard. However, this leopard is wild and untamable, and it usually has to cooperate with a special leopard slave, otherwise it is difficult for ordinary people to command it.

Well? Li Chen is an emperor, this is too inferior, no one has the majesty of the mastiff to make the lynx, and no one has the fierceness of the leopard? ˙

But seeing that at this time, there was a rider who was responsible for driving away the beast and drove the beast to Li Chen's front for Li Chen to shoot. Li Chen raised his bow, this time the shot was empty, but he didn't shoot, but as soon as the black shadow swooped down from the sky, in people's eyes, it grabbed it like lightning, and Li Chen didn't shoot the deer.

Then after a little turn, the black shadow came to Li Chen and threw the deer in front of Li Chen. Then he put away his wings and stopped on Li Chen's shoulder.

Li Chen was so indulgent that he picked up a piece of jerky and fed it to eat. I saw this bird, handsome and extraordinary. It turned out to be an eagle. Who said that Li Chen, as an emperor, didn't even have any good things. Isn't that right?

What, what's so great about the eagles? This is not an eagle. This is Hai Dongqing. It's the famous Haidongqing. I saw this handsome bird, tilting its head and eating the dried meat given by Li Chen, and then flapping its wings and flying, soaring into the air, hovering above.

Soon, there was another eagle-like bird, chasing a bird, rushing to Li Chen, not to Li Chen to shoot, if he really shot, this kind of bird would probably become extinct. It's not too rare, it's that this bird is so stupid that it's long gone extinct. If you drive a bird over and shoot it at its owner, aren't you afraid that your master will miss it?

Therefore, since this bird is not extinct, it means that there are other tricks. I saw that it chased the bird to Li Chen, and pecked the prey in front of Li Chen, which was a please. Li Chen thought to himself, so he happily threw out a piece of jerky, and the eagle flew up, took the jerky in the air, and flew into the air again.

It's angry enough, although this head is not Hai Dongqing, but it is also very handsome. This is called a falcon. It is also a type of eagle.

If you are a dog, Li Chen is a kind of lynx, and if you are a bird, you will surpass others by a lot. There is no way to do this, the one responsible for raising these hunting helpers for the emperor, the royal stable, consists of five squares. Inside, there is a dog shop for dogs.

The other four squares are all pension eagles. The smallest is the harrier, which is very small and usually only catches a few small birds. Li Shimin played with it, and then was suffocated to death by Wei Zheng, it was this kind of bird.

The slightly bigger one is the one who just loves to behave, and then pounces on the birds in front of Li Chen, which is called the falcon. There are two kinds above, one is the Eagle Fang, where Haidongqing is raised. The other workshop is to raise carvings, yes, it's that kind of eagle.

That's why it's so serious. Li Chen can't get a leopard or anything, but we lose to you with four legs, let's play heavenly.

As for you saying that there are no Tibetan mastiffs or anything in the dog shop? Actually, there used to be. However, because Emperor Daxing began to be superstitious about the elixir and ate his body, he didn't hunt for several years. So after the Tibetan mastiff died a few years ago, there was no new mastiff.

Let Li Chen be embarrassed, fortunately, his own birds are still competitive, otherwise he would not want to be afraid of **** when he goes back, and start to rectify the palace.

In this way, Li Chen began to lead Huang on the left and Qingcang on the right, and set off with more than a dozen horses in the brocade hat and ermine, and began a pleasant hunting trip. I didn't even have lunch to eat, so I nibbled on my horse for a few months, and then continued to shoot with a bow and arrow.

Constantly some prey were driven to Li Chen's front, Li Chen felt very happy, and when he saw the target, he took an arrow and shot it. Shot, naturally a few pets rushed forward to catch the prey, and then there will be someone to pick it up, so he doesn't have to do it himself.

In this way, when the sun sets, the hunters come in twos and threes, and they return easily. The camp, which had been empty, was crowded with people. (To be continued.) )
