Chapter 138: The Heart Has a Soul
For several days in a row, Liang Xiao was either immersed in the tent to practice shooting, or he was looking for nothing to stimulate Zheng Er. Zheng Er was so stimulated by him that he jumped like thunder, and he had to shoot a fierce beast to prove himself. On the island, there are so many large armies stationed, where are there any fierce beasts. Zheng Er had traveled almost the entire island, and he had not found anything more like a beast than a beaver.
Zheng Er is going crazy, and Zhongli is also going crazy.
Huan Yuan accepted Liang Xiao's bow and arrow, but he couldn't stop his mouth. Liang Xiao is like a poisonous snake, with venom in every mouthful of spittle, which provokes Zheng Er's anger and anger, and also stimulates Zhongli to be depressed.
He never thought that Liang Xiao's mouth would be so damaged, and his lethality was not weaker than his bow and arrow. Knowing this, he would never have taken on this task. He would rather follow Huan Yuan to the battlefield to fight, than listen to Liang Xiao.
At dinner on the evening of the fourth day, Liang Xiao sat by the campfire, gnawed on the grilled fish with a disgusted expression, gnawed half of it, and suddenly threw the fish into the fire.
Zhong Liqi was taken aback: "What are you doing, crazy?" ”
"It's not a fish, it's a wild pheasant, and it tastes earthy." Liang Xiao said anxiously: "Can you change some tricks, even if it's a beaver." Relying on the mountains to eat the mountains, relying on the water to eat the water, is it possible that there are only wild pheasants on the mountains and only fish in the water? ”
Zheng Fang lowered his head in embarrassment and said nothing. Zheng Er turned his head to look away, snorting and sulking.
Zhongli Qi frowned and shouted, "What can be on this island?" It's nice to have fish to eat. Naughty again, let you eat white rice like the soldiers. ”
"Why isn't there anything?" Liang Xiao stretched out his hand and pointed to the southeast. "I heard a tiger roaring there."
"Bragging again, can you still hear the roar of the tiger so far away?" Zheng Er pursed his lips and dismissed.
"You know. How can you imagine the ear power of the archer? Didn't dare to go. Just don't speak. Uncle Zhongli. I'm going to hunt tigers, do you dare? As soon as Zhong Liqi hesitated, Liang Xiao said again: "Lord Yan is on the island, where can I escape to?" If you are still not at ease, you can hand over Lord Yan to the crown prince, and you can just free up an archer. Whether it is Wei Qing or Qin Ge, archery skills are much stronger than these wastes. ”
"Who do you say is trash?" Zheng Er jumped like thunder again, and his eyes were almost red. The fists are clenched tightly, and they will pounce on Liang Xiao at any time to fight hard.
Liang Xiao ignored him, pulled Zhong Li's time, lowered his voice and said, "Uncle Zhongli, more than half of the ten-day period has passed, and a big war is inevitable, do you want Lord Yan to die at the hands of the master?" ”
Zhong Liqi was stunned for a moment, and suddenly realized. He coughed and looked at Zheng Er seriously. "Do you really want to go tiger hunting?"
"I must go!" Zheng Er screamed without thinking.
"Alright, you wait. Levy side. Go and get Liang Xiao's bow and arrows. Let's go tiger hunting and see if it's your natives who are more powerful. Or the archer from the Central Plains. ”
Zheng Fang hesitated for a moment: "Before the master left, he repeatedly instructed that he could not give him a bow and arrows. ”
"When will it be your turn to speak?"
Seeing Zhong Liqi's fierce eyes, Zheng Bian didn't dare to speak anymore, and turned around to get Liang Xiao's bow and arrow. Zhong Liqi took Liang Xiao and walked to Yan Zhu's big tent, and as he walked, he whispered, "Boy, don't play tricks. ”
"Uncle Zhongli, what other tricks can you play? With a master like you by the side, and that black boy watching, what splash can I make? Besides, my mission is to escort Lord Yan, and Lord Yan stays on the island, where can I run to? ”
Zhongli did not speak. The two came to Yan Zhu's big tent, Qin Ge was on duty outside the tent, and when he saw Liang Xiao, he quickly stood up and gave Liang Xiao an inquiring look.
"Brother Qin, we're going to hunt tigers, are you coming?"
"Tiger hunting? What about adults? ”
"At most three watches, before the end of the banquet between the lord and the prince, we will be back." Liang Xiao said loudly: "My lord is accompanied by the prince, what can I do?" You come with me, eat fish every day, and I'm tired of it. ”
Before Qin Ge could speak, Yan Zhu walked out of the big tent. He exchanged a knowing look with Liang Xiao. "That's fine, let these Yue people see my handsome martial arts. The prince and I drank and danced, chanted poems, and didn't have to worry about you. Will you be able to come back before the third watch? If I can't come back, I'll talk to the prince all night. ”
"Don't worry, even if the third watch doesn't come back, I will definitely come back before sunrise tomorrow."
"That couldn't be better."
Yan Zhu followed Liang Xiao to Liu Ju's big tent and explained his intentions. Liu Ju got along with Yan Zhu for the past two days, although he did not reach any formal agreement, listening to Yan Zhu's poetry and recitation, and giving an interesting speech about Chang'an, he remembered the prosperity of Wu Guo back then, and was on the rise.
For the sake of safety, Zhong Liqi took away twenty Houyi camp archers, a total of twenty-six people, and he himself was inseparable from Liang Xiao, not letting Liang Xiao leave his sight for half a step, and even when he got on the boat, he was one after the other, and he could control Liang Xiao at any time.
Liang Xiao didn't care either, just took care of Qin Ge and Wei Qing. "You two be careful, don't fall into the water and drown."
"Got it." Wei Qing spread his arms and cautiously walked onto the springboard. Qin Ge was even more exaggerated, grabbed the hand of a Houyi battalion archer and didn't let go, and when he got on the boat, he immediately got into the cabin, and he couldn't scream.
"What's the matter with him?" Zhong Liqi asked.
"Longyouren, seasickness." Liang Xiao smiled.
Zhong Liqi snorted, a little disdainful.
The ship left the shore, traveled five miles to the southeast, and docked again, which can be regarded as officially setting foot on the land of Huiji County. This is the northwest of Gusu City, and there are several not too high peaks nearby, but the woods are very dense, almost primeval forest.
In fact, this era is not only the case of Gusu City, but also other famous cities, the prosperity is in the city, and the development outside the city is very limited. Suzhou is a prosperous place in the southeast in later generations, but now it is only a slightly larger city in the border county, not far from the city, it is the real primitive ecology, and it is a paradise for wild animals. Liang Xiao said that when he heard the sound of a tiger roaring here, Zhong Liqi and the others were not suspicious, just because there was really a tiger here.
According to historical records, until the Three Kingdoms period, there were wild tigers near Wu County, Sun Ce and Sun Quan had hunted tigers in Wu County, and Sun Quan himself was almost injured by the tiger.
Looking up at the dense jungle, Liang Xiao exhaled softly and stretched out his hand to the side of Zheng. "Now it's time to give me my bow and arrows, right?"
"You're here to see." Zheng Er squeezed through the middle of Liang Xiao and Zheng Side, and took the lead towards the dense forest. "Just with your eyes, you don't need to do it."
Liang Xiao sneered and was silent. Zhong Liqi pondered for a moment and ordered: "Zhengfang, you carry the arrow for him." As a last resort, he is not allowed to touch the arrows, and if he dares to mess around, he will beat him. ”――
