It was snowing, Chu Yi stood in the yard, not moving, gradually the snowflakes covered his whole body, Chu Yi was gone, there was an extra snowman in his yard, this was the first time Chu Yi had seen snow when he was so old, and it was also a special way for him to greet the snow.

Covered in silver, the heavy snow has dressed the village in gorgeous new clothes, how beautiful!

Chu Yi had been standing in the courtyard for a few hours, but he didn't mean to move at all, this fresh energy had not yet passed, until the arrival of the big cow, the big cow had already put on a thick cotton coat.

"Wow! what a beautiful snowman!" said Da Niu as soon as he entered the courtyard and saw the snowman, and he exclaimed.

After a circle around the snowman, he turned around and walked towards the house, he came this time to find Chu Yi with something important, and knocked on the door gently, but there was no response, so Da Niu said softly, "Brother Chu, are you there?

"Yes. Chu Yi's voice came from the snowman.

"Where?" Da Niu still didn't find Chu Yi.

"In this. In this. ”

After Chu Yi's continuous sound, Da Niu finally turned his gaze to the snowman again, he looked at the snowman carefully, and when he looked at the snowman's eyes, Chu Yi suddenly raised his hand and came out of the snowman, scaring Da Niu into sitting in the snow.

"Ahh

Chu Yi laughed, and at this time, Da Niu got up from the ground and muttered, "Little Brother Chu, you still know how to play!"

"Haha, what's the matter, what's the matter with me?" Chu Yi asked happily.

"It's nothing, aren't you going to hunt in the mountains? Uncle Blacksmith asked me to tell you that you will gather in the courtyard of the village chief's grandfather in the afternoon for winter hunting today. The big bull said as he patted the snow on his body.

"Oh, I see, I'll be there on time. Chu Yi said with a smile.

Afternoon!

Chu Yi walked on a trail that jumped out, this is the road that the people in the village stepped on, the path is very narrow, and it can only accommodate one person to walk, if there are two people walking opposite each other, then there will be one person standing in the thick snow on both sides of the road, let one of them pass first.

The heavy snow was still falling, and everyone in the village had already put on thick cotton clothes, only Chu Yi was still wearing the same long shirt, when Chu Yi walked to the village chief's courtyard, there were already many people waiting here, they looked at Chu Yi with a wooden smile, and then asked in unison, "Brother Chu, aren't you cold?"

"Uh..." Chu Yi hadn't figured out how to answer this question, so he simply said, "I don't feel anything." ”

Regarding Chu Yi's outfit that was different from theirs, they just sighed and said, "It's good to be young!"

After Chu Yi arrived, he didn't wait for long, and the people who hunted this time came, counting Chu Yi, there were only ten people, and there was a child a few years older than Da Niu, who was the son of a blacksmith, called Zhuzi, but the people in the village liked to call him Little Iron Pillar.

Hunting is different from harvesting rice, not everyone can participate, it requires agile skills and accurate archery, no, before setting off, the blacksmith carried a big bow to Chu Yi, and then asked, "Brother Chu, will you use this?"

Chu Yi didn't say much, he pulled the bow and shot at the big locust tree in front of the village chief's courtyard, the big locust tree was a few zhang away from Chu Yi, such a close distance, it was impossible to see anything, but the blacksmith's eyes still lit up, because the arrow was two inches into the wood, which was enough to see how great Chu Yi's strength was.

The blacksmith walked up to Chu Yi, patted Chu Yi on the shoulder heavily, and praised, "Good job." Then he took the lead out of the small courtyard, and the group lined up, walked on the path in the snow, and went straight to the mountain out of the village.

Ten men with ten bows, a hundred feather arrows, and a number of tools for arranging traps, when they reached the foot of the mountain, the blacksmith asked everyone to take the trap in their hands, and then they went up the mountain, the snow was a little heavy, and the way up the mountain was very difficult to walk, and it was very laborious, so this time their hunting area was set halfway up the mountain, and as for whether they could meet the beasts, it depended on their luck.

The trap was set in a place where the beasts frequented, and the blacksmith led the group onwards, and after walking for a while, they did not touch a single beast, and it seemed that the snow hindered not only them, but also the beasts, and it was not a way to go on like this.

Chu Yi released the divine consciousness of his mind realm and found the Thunder Tiger on the mountain, Chu Yi's voice sounded in the Thunder Tiger's mind, "Thunder Tiger, roar a few times to alarm the beasts on the mountain." ”

The napping Thunder Tiger heard Chu Yi's voice and quickly stood up.

"Roar!"

"Roar~Roar!"

The whole mountain was filled with the sound of tiger roaring, and when the blacksmiths heard it, they quickly knelt down, bowed down to the mountain, and muttered, "Please forgive the tiger god!"

When Chu Yi saw this scene, he wanted to laugh a little, but he didn't expect this Thunder Tiger to have such great prestige in the hearts of the villagers.

At this time, not far from everyone, there was a hare, the blacksmith's son, the little pillar moved quickly, quickly stood up and bent the bow and arrow, and the arrow hit the hare, but the little pillar's actions did not usher in the blacksmith's praise, and was reprimanded by the blacksmith, "You kid, you are always so reckless, what should you do if you anger the tiger god?"

Xiao Zhuzi was a little aggrieved, but he didn't dare to refute his father's words, so he could only hang there, Chu Yi saw this and hurriedly said, "Brother Blacksmith, the tiger god is high, naturally he won't blame a child." ”

The blacksmith sighed, "I hope!"

The group stood up and stepped forward to pick up the rabbit, the first prey they had caught on their trip.

With the roar of the thunder-patterned tiger sounded, the beasts in the mountains became frightened, they scurried in the forest, and it didn't take long for a few to reach Chu Yi's area, everyone bent their bows and arrows, Chu Yi was not to be outdone, the bow was like the moon, and the feather arrows shot out quickly, and his target was an adult sika deer.

Chu Yi shot very accurately, the strength was ruthless enough, one blow killed, try not to let this sika deer suffer more, and everyone was not as neat as Chu Yi, their target was an adult wild boar, the wild boar was very miserable, it was shot into a sieve by everyone, fortunately its size was big enough, otherwise its body full of feathered arrows would be mistaken for a porcupine from a distance.

Everyone quickly went up to capture the two beasts, and the villagers shouted, "It's the Tiger God who has appeared!"

Chu Yi smiled in his heart when he heard this, there was nothing wrong with saying this.

After the villagers thanked the tiger god, they looked at Chu Yi, and they praised Chu Yi one by one and said, "Little brother Chu is good at archery!"

Chu Yi said modestly, "Coincidentally, coincidentally!"

"Okay, this wild boar and this sika deer are enough to eat for a while, we have gained a lot from this trip, there is no need to freeze here. "The blacksmith called everyone back the way they came, this is the simple villagers, they are not greedy, they are enough.

Three or four men dragged a beast down the hill, and by the way went to see if there was any catch from the trap under the mountain, these things were said quickly, but from the time they went up the mountain to the time they came down, in fact, several hours had passed, and it was getting dark.

What is surprising is that the trap they arranged is not small, four or five hares were clamped legs, the villagers opened the trap one by one, and found that one of the hares was female, and its belly was bulging, so it was about to be released, at this time Chu Yi suddenly spoke: "Let me come?"

Chu Yi seemed to be curious about everything and wanted to try it, but in fact, Chu Yi took the hare in his hand, and at the moment when he squatted down with everyone on his back, he gently touched the injured leg of the hare, and the hare's pinched leg healed.

Everyone continued to walk down the mountain, there were talking and laughing along the way, this time they not only gained a lot, no one was injured, this is a time to be happy, at this time, a hungry wolf suddenly came out of the snow and pounced on the small iron pillar, Chu Yi relied on his strong spiritual power, and took the lead in capturing the action of this hungry wolf, a feather arrow pierced the head of the hungry wolf in the shocked eyes of everyone, and the blood sprayed on the snow, embellishing a beautiful snow scene.

After everyone made sure that the little iron pillar was okay, they walked towards the hungry wolf, it seems that this heavy snow has cut off the wolf's food, if it is not extremely hungry, it will not take the initiative to attack humans.

"It's not bad, and a wolf was sent to the door. The blacksmith said happily, now he can laugh out loud, after all, the little iron pillar has just experienced danger, if everyone laughs, it is not appropriate.

With one more wolf, there is an extra burden for everyone, but fortunately, they only need to drag the beast away, which can save a lot of effort.

At the foot of the mountain, there were already more than a dozen villagers waiting there, they didn't have accurate archery skills, but they could carry these prey, and each of them had to contribute to this big family in the village.

The people who were waiting in the village were not idle, they cleaned up the courtyard of the village chief's house, erected wood, and according to the village custom, after each winter hunt, a bonfire was lit and the whole village celebrated together.

When the prey was carried back to the village chief's yard, the hunters could rest for a while, and the work of dividing the meat was left to the women of the village, who cut the beast in half, took out the entrails and washed them, and then set up a cauldron and stewed the entrails with large pieces of meat, which of course were only a part, and the rest of the bulk was to be distributed to each family later for refrigeration.

The five hares were skinned and washed, grilled on a flame, and the skins were left to make a shoulder, which was very warm to wear.

In the courtyard of the village chief's house, large tables were set up, and they were filled with light wine brought by each family, which they had brewed themselves.

The snow has stopped!

The bonfires in winter are set up, and the children run around them and have a lot of fun.

The meat is cooked!

The big cow came with the blind old man in his arms.

At the suggestion of the blind old man, Chu Yi took out some spirits, and tonight was destined to be a situation where he would not get drunk and not return.

Boisterous!
