Chapter 39: Out of the Hunt (I)

The next morning, I got up, ran around the village a few times, took a cold shower, and my father and brother got up.

When they were ready, Mom and Sister made breakfast, and Grandpa and Ian got up.

Leo said, "What is this kid Ian planning?" ”

I said, "You're suspicious! ”

After breakfast, I was finally going to set off with my dad and them.

The shield was badly damaged in the battle with the Redmane Gadrel, and my dad gave me a new Kodo skin shield. The bone hammer was undamaged, and my grandfather said before he left that he would give me a good hammer.

My grandfather told me not to forget to train my shaman skills in the hunting grounds.

I took my weapons and followed my father and brother to the drying field.

After assembling the team, the two dozen hunters brought their weapons, food, water, and daily necessities, and set off.

It was my first time out of the house, and the first time I had gone out of the village, outside of the village of Duodie.

I haven't even been to a nearby village.

My brother had traveled to other villages, and even further afield, which was the only town in the vicinity, Sri.

Our Minotaur has a city, which is Thunder City, and there are many small towns around Thunder City, and there are naturally more villages around the town.

Leo was more interested in these than I was, and asked a lot of questions, and I felt that there was nothing to keep secret, so I asked my father - how many villages, towns, and populations do we Minotaurs have?

Dad said, "Why are you asking this?" ”

I said, "I want to know ......"

Dad said, "How do I know? Anyway, a lot of it's just that! Go home and ask your grandfather! ”

Uncle Sanji said with a smile: "Bihong is worthy of being the successor of the shaman, and he thinks a lot!" ”

I said, "Uncle Sanchi, you know what? ”

Uncle Sanji said, "I've only heard a little bit, it seems to say that our Minotaur clan has a total population of 100,000, and there are about fifty or sixty towns, and there are probably more than a hundred villages......

100,000 people! More than 100 villages!

I was shocked by the number: "So many? More than 100 villages! ”

Leo said disdainfully: "Only 100,000? Oh my God, any small county town in our place will have more population than your whole race! It's an endangered species! ”

I said, "No wonder you always think about invasion, it turns out that there are too many people to eat!" ”

Leo was not happy: "It's completely different, you can eat so much, just one of us can eat the amount of food...... But it's also true, those fierce nations in history are like this, tens of thousands of people can defeat millions of mainstream people...... By the way, apart from the Minotaurs, what about the other races? Ask him! ”

I said, "You have so many questions!" ”

I didn't ask yet, but Uncle Sanji directly answered Leo's question: "We Minotaurs are actually not many, not too few, like the Lion People and the Tiger People, together there are less than 10,000, that is called a really powerful race, of course, a weak race like the Rabbit People and the Rat People Race, any race has a population of several millions, and together they can't stop us from a hundred Minotaurs, it's useless to have more!" ”

Leo smiled: "This guy talks a lot and has a flexible mind, but when he gets old, he is more suitable to be an elder in the village than your father!" ”

Dad said, "You have to remember these things well!" ”

I nodded, and my brother said, "I don't care, anyway, I don't have to worry about these village affairs in the future!" ”

Dad said, "Remember, too!" When you're old, you'll be able to use it! At least you can't make a fool of yourself in front of people from other villages! Last ......"

The other village he said was Wana Village, and that time, it is said that he took his brother to the girl's house in Wana Village to propose marriage, but he couldn't answer other people's questions and was laughed at.

The elder brother scratched his head and said, "Those things, what harvests wheat, what ploughs the fields and pulls long intervals...... What is there to ask? I'm so capable! Isn't that enough for the strongest of the young people? ”

Dad kicked his brother lightly, and Uncle Sanji laughed.

We were heading northwest of the village.

Leaving the village and the dirt road, there is almost a lush meadow ahead, not even a big tree, a big rock, or a hill in sight, only a gentle meadow and a large river in the distance.

There were not a few clouds in the blue sky, but there were one or two eagles hovering high in the sky, and the green meadows, and only a small village could be seen in the distance.

Dad said, "That's the village of Bezu, and they come here to hunt." The upper reaches of the big river is the town of Sirui, which will open your eyes one day! ”

I asked, "Where is Thunder City?" ”

Dad said, "Further upstream, go up the river, walk for more than ten days to get there!" ”

I looked at the somewhat blackened water and said, "Oh! This river is so dark......"

The elder brother said, "It is morning, and we are so far away that of course we can't see clearly, but at noon it will turn white, and in the evening it will turn golden!" ”

Leo said, "I really haven't seen the world......

I asked my brother, "Why?" ”

The elder brother said, "It doesn't matter why he is! ”

Leo smiled: "Ha, it's terrible to be uneducated!" Isn't it just the reflection of sunlight? Hey, I really want to popularize compulsory education for you! ”

Dad said, "Don't look around, watch for prey!" ”

Before he finished speaking, a herd of hundreds of wild deer ran up the river, and in the distance, there were more than a dozen wild wolves.

Uncle Sanji said, "It's this group again, well, and more than a dozen cubs have been born!" I was lucky enough to meet my prey so soon! ”

Dad said, "Be careful, don't scare them away too soon." Others, watch out for wolves! ”

I already felt the tension of the hunt, and I pulled out the bone hammer that hung from the buckle around my waist and held it in my hand.

The elder brother said, "Don't worry, it's still far away!" ”

Leo became a little excited: "Wow, wow, wow, so many wild things!" No wonder, no wonder so many pot-bellied minotaurs can be fed! Wow, I really underestimated the living conditions of your remote villages! It's a big granary with abundant products! Not! What's over there? Antelope? Also, there are bison! Bison? Do you minotaurs also hunt bison? Do you still eat beef? Oh, my God! I'm going to throw up! ”

I said, "Don't make a noise! ”

Everyone quickened their pace, bowed slightly, and ran towards the river.

Leo yelled, "Hey, hey, did you just run over like that?" Oh my God, there's going to be an ambush, there's going to be a trap or something, right? ”

I said, "Quarrel again!" ”

The deer were drinking slowly by the river, not to mention us, and even the closer wild wolves were not taken into account by them.

Leo shouted again: "Ahhhh ”

I also got angry: "Don't make noise! Don't be noisy! Don't be noisy! ”

Leo was a little more honest and said, "Okay, I won't talk much, I want to see how you guys play!" ”

We ran for a while, and a group of people ran out of the village of Bezu to the south.

Dad waved at them and led us around to the north.

There are wolves over there, but a dozen wolves can't do anything to us at all.

The closer the people of Beizu Village turned out, and we also entered the warning range of the wolves.

The wolves became alert, and then, seeing that there were many of us, the first wolf ran away with his men.

The wild deer were still stupidly at the water's edge, and only a few of them were clever and looked up from time to time.

From a distance, the river was black, but as we got closer, it became transparent.

I saw the aquatic plants at the bottom of the river, and it seemed that the river was not shallow.

Over there, the hunters of Beizu Village were also waving.

Dad whispered: "Everyone, pay attention, outflank both sides together, and it is best to force the prey into the river!" ”

Uncle Sanji immediately went around further north and said, "This ......."

The rest of the people, according to their arrangement, dispersed.

My brother and I were relatively close, and my brother winked at me: "Look carefully, don't rush to ......"

I nodded.

Leo seemed to be sick, and said weakly, "Ah...... It's really a defeat to you, such a crude tactic can actually succeed? Is there any heavenly reason...... It's Stone Age level......"

I said, "Can't you be quiet yet!" ”

Leo said, "Ou Yu! Ou Yu! I don't speak, I'm just watching you pretend to be thirteen ...... quietly."

Our steps are getting slower and slower, and our bodies are getting lower and lower.

On that side, the people of Beizu Village are also doing the same.

My brother spat in his palm, rubbed his hands, pulled out his axe, and I grabbed the hammer.

I feel more nervous than I am in the face of the red-maned Gadreel!

When we came to more than 30 paces, the deer finally sensed the crisis and started screaming and running!

"Do it!" Dad shouted.

"Roar—"

Everyone screamed, shook, and rushed towards the deer with their weapons raised!

The deer fled in a panic, some facing south, some facing north, and some jumping directly into the river.

Dad rushed to the front, and when he was a dozen steps away, he threw his axe at the herd!

The others threw their weapons one after another, as did Uncle Sanchi and a few other archers!

The elder brother shouted: "Bihong, do it!" ”

As he spoke, he threw his axe out.

Not to be outdone, I aimed at the head of a wild deer and threw out the bone hammer!

Leo suddenly exclaimed, "Ah! The hunter was stupid enough, but he didn't expect the prey to be even stupider! Ah, cover your face! ”
