Chapter 143: Hunting
The orange-red sunset was reflected in the mountain stream, and the snow on both sides of the stream was scattered everywhere, and Siming followed the footprints in front of him step by step towards the mountain. The snow on the road was not thick, it could only cover Siming's instep, and he could feel the thickness of the soil on the ground when he stepped on it.
The people who walked in front were in high spirits, shouting at each other, each boasting about how many rare things they had harvested from the last hunt, and Gu Pan, who was walking in the front, was especially interested, carrying a bow that had not yet been opened, and talking to Quan Rong, who was walking with her.
Siming walked behind the group of people in the Hundred Beasts Hall, and Long Ping was with him, although he was on the way up the mountain, he seemed to be taking a leisurely walk, chatting with Siming with each other, nothing more than saying something, which piece of tea in Tong'an Mountain is his own, and which piece of tea is someone else's.
The last person, Siming didn't know, his face looked cold, and he didn't even have a lot of flattery towards Long, he always had a feeling of being out of the world.
Speaking of hunting, Siming is still the first time to come, although he also brought a bow with him, but Siming doesn't plan to do anything, and it's best not to have a time when he needs to open his own bow.
But Ouyang Lian in front was trying the bow from time to time, looking eager to try, and occasionally looked at Siming's side, and asked him to go to the front to walk with her, and wait to hunt together.
This kind of thing, Si Ming is too late to hide, how can he come forward, not to mention that Long Ping is still by his side, he has already given himself enough face, if he refutes the face of the owner at this time, it will not be easy to mix in the future.
Although he couldn't be too flattering, Siming still paid close attention to every word Long Ping said, after all, it might be useful to him in the future, especially since he couldn't be deceived by this cunning woman like he did when he went to the city in the morning.
The group continued to walk forward, talking and laughing, as if the happiness that had been held back for a long time finally had a reason to explode, and even the thin dog in Quan Rong's hand was bouncing along the way.
When he reached the halfway point of the mountain, Quan Rong, who was walking in front, came over and said to Long Ping respectfully, "Boss, there is some movement at the right turn at the intersection in front, do you want to go this way?" ”
Long Ping nodded, then turned back to ask Siming, and said, "Today's head gun, you want to try it?" ”
This first arrow, Siming didn't dare to let go, arched his hand and replied, "Thank you for the love, but I'm not good at archery, this kind of jackpot thing or let the capable people come, I'm cheering on the side, it's already an honor." ”
Long Ping thought that Siming was polite, and he wanted to shirk it again, so he asked Quan Gui'er to take his bow and arrow, and said, "You haven't opened it yet, I'm afraid there are some inappropriate places." You use mine, and Ah Pan used this last time to get the jackpot. ”
Before Siming refused, Long Ping's bow had been taken away, and when he looked back, he was looking forward to it, and said with a smile, "Brother Ping, I took this jackpot for Brother Qiao, what do you want today?" ”
At this time, Long Ping understood, looked at Siming, and said to Gu Pan, "Since you are here, you naturally can't just take a pheasant, the rabbit meat is delicious and delicious." At this time, it is also the time to return to the nest, so it is better to leave it at that. ”
Gu Pan naturally agreed, and then pulled Siming to the front of the team, and said mysteriously, "Brother Qiao, wait here for me to get the jackpot first, and then coax Brother Ping's fire gun out for you to play with." ”
Firebolt? Since the beginning of the current dynasty, this weapon has been banned among the people, and even if the old production site of the previous dynasty is still retained, it is only for the use of the Son of Heaven and its subordinates, and even large merchants like the Long family are not allowed to hide this weapon privately.
Siming naturally knew the stakes inside, so he shook his head at Gu Pan and said in a low voice, "This thing is not suitable for outsiders, don't mess around, be careful of causing trouble." ”
Gu Pan looked at Siming with a look of 'I understand', and then asked Quan Rong to take the thin dog to explore the way ahead, as if the rabbit was already in his hands.
Seeing that Gu Pan was rushing forward, Siming also consciously stepped back, and was running into Ouyang Lian, who came to the front to see the excitement. Perhaps in order to better hide in the forest, Ouyang Lian, who had always been reluctant to wear red clothes, also changed into plain clothes, and washed all the makeup on her face, revealing a fair face, which was easier to kiss than usual.
"What? She's going to get the jackpot again? "I don't know how the two of them got along, the rest of the Hundred Beasts Hall can still get along well, but they don't buy it from Ouyang Lian, and they will make some stumbling blocks for her from time to time, making her embarrassed.
Ouyang Lian also felt that there was no place to provoke this person, and she was also a person who ate soft and not hard, she wanted to find fault, so she continued one by one.
"Hmm." Siming replied.
Siming was so interested in interfering in the battle between the two of them, not to mention that she didn't like this Ouyang Lian, she always jumped out of her own expectations, either saying something inexplicable or going to some inexplicable place.
"Are you really indifferent, are you still angry?" Ouyang Lian also felt that the joke in the morning was a bit excessive, but seeing his anxious appearance at the time, she couldn't help but want to play tricks. accidentally went too far, this person is so angry that he is really stingy.
Ouyang Lian also walked faster, followed in the direction of Gu Pan's advance, and saw that the whole family of brothers was driving the dog to drive the animals in the forest, Gu Pan was wiping the arrows on the side, and when he saw that he was coming, he just raised his head and took it back, and his disappointment was overflowing.
The two brothers and sisters have developed such virtues, they are good to their own people, and they simply don't even have a smile on outsiders, Ouyang Lian is also a little unhappy, and goes deeper into the forest.
The sunset has set into the mountainside, and the forest is also a little foggy, Ouyang Lian doesn't know how long she has walked, there are traces of branches being shaken in front of her, but it doesn't look like a person made it, Ouyang Lian took two steps back, and in the silent valley, even the sound of stepping on the snow under her feet is particularly harsh.
Seeing that there was no reaction to the sound he made in front of him, Ouyang Lian took two steps back, took off the bow and arrow on his back, and opened the bow, ready at any time.
Is a trembling branch taller than a human being a big prey? Ouyang Lian swallowed her saliva, feeling that her throat was a little dry, her feet couldn't move a little, the arrow was pointing straight ahead, and her hand was a little trembling, if it was only a big one, releasing the arrow would anger it.
I don't know how long it has been stalemate, Ouyang Lian, who has been maintaining a vigilant posture, is also a little tired, the fog in the forest is deeper, and it is no longer clear to see people, but there is no movement on the other side, Ouyang Lian moved her body and took a few steps back.
"Lotus girl..." I don't know where a shout came out of nowhere, and it reached Ouyang Lian's ears, and the opposite side finally moved, but it went farther away, startling a plucking of tree branches, and a burst of snowflakes fell.
Ouyang Lian finally felt relieved, put down her bow, and answered the back. After a while, someone really came, and it was the whole family of brothers, holding the dog, who came to welcome him back.
Ouyang Lian beckoned to the brothers of the family, and when Quan Rong came over, she put her hand on his shoulder and said, "You let me hold on for a while, I can't stand a little unsteadily." ”
Although Ouyang Lian is not often proud of her beauty, since last summer, after coming to the Long family on an errand, who doesn't want to win the favor of this beautiful girl.
Although Quan Rong often followed behind Gu Pan and didn't see Ouyang Lian often, he would also pass by the mansion where the Hundred Beasts Hall lived from time to time, and it would be good to take a look inside or listen to the laughter like a silver bell outside.
At this time, the pair of slender hands were actually on his body, Quan Rong couldn't help but stiffen, and even the rope holding the thin dog in his hand was loosened, and fell to the ground, still by the thin dog like a loose horse, to chase the birds and finches in the forest.
"Miss Lian, is this something happening?" Quan Rong's body couldn't move, and he couldn't even speak very neatly, and he stumbled for a long time before he spit out such a sentence.
Ouyang Lian was a little relieved, and then she took her hand back, handed the quiver on her body to Quan Rong, and said, "I don't know what I encountered, I guess it's a big guy, I didn't dare to release the arrow." Don't talk about it, it's really bad luck to die today. ”
Quan Rong touched his shoulder, he always felt that the place was still warm, whistled again, called back the thin dog, took the leash, and said to Ouyang Lian with a smile, "I won't say it." Miss Lian want to take a rest again, anyway, it's not fun over there, I'll let Facai go to catch you up, and it's good to go back with a few pheasants. ”
Ouyang Lian naturally didn't want to go home like this, but looking at the increasingly deep fog, she shook her head again and said, "I don't have that energy, I'm not in a hurry over there, I'll rest for a while, are you going to go back in a hurry?" ”
"I'm not in a hurry, I'll wait for Miss Lian here, lest that thing come back again, and the two of them might as well have a way." Jeon Rong also stopped, stood aside, and thought to himself, but unfortunately there is no place to sit here.
Ouyang Lian saw that people were not leaving, so she found a tree trunk to lean on, and found some words to say, "I remember you, often following Miss Gu?" ”
"Hmm. But it didn't take long, not long before Miss Lian came. Jeon Rong said truthfully.
Ouyang Lian was a little disappointed, as if she was asking herself, "Then you don't know why she keeps looking for my fault." ”
Quan Rong can't be regarded as completely unknown, but this kind of thing is not easy to talk about, looking at the disappointed expression on the girl's face, and afraid that she will never talk to herself again, so he took a step forward in his heart and said, "Miss Pan has always disliked red, and the more red she is, the more she doesn't like it, I think it's because of this." ”
Is this the case, but Ouyang Lian likes to wear red clothes the most, whether it is lighter red or stronger, it can be eye-catching, and when she meets a little girl who doesn't like red, she can't help but smile bitterly.
The two chattered about something else, seeing that the sky was about to get dark, I don't know where a boom came from, startling the birds and beasts in the forest for a while, and even Ouyang Lian was frightened.
Quan Rong on the side frowned, and said with a smile, "It should be a big rock or something like that has to fall from the mountain, Miss Lian, let's go back." ”
