Volume 1: Longjiang Village Chapter 19: Ye Mo's Growth
"Father, with your words, I will be relieved!" Ye Mo breathed a sigh of relief.
After solving the doubts in his heart, Ye Mo was relieved, he believed in his father's judgment, after all, his father had been with the old village chief for decades, and he should not be mistaken. Besides, there is indeed nothing to be done in this village, and even if there is really anything to be gained, with the cultivation of the old village chief, isn't it easy to get it?
After identifying the only unstable factor in the village, Ye Mo would be able to cultivate with peace of mind.
After eating at home, saying goodbye to his parents, and in his mother's reluctant look, he went to the bamboo forest alone to cultivate.
The way of cultivation is a long way to go, it is not an overnight effort, it requires perseverance and unremitting efforts, so even if Ye Mo is still very weak now, he has just started, but he will not be lazy.
At the end of the night's cultivation, Ye Mo stretched his waist refreshedly and walked towards the training ground.
On the drill ground, there were still only a dozen people at this time, and it seemed that it was also the appearance of two teams, Ye Mo didn't think much about it, nor was he picky, he casually chose a team and joined in. I once again went on my own hunting and cultivation journey.
The path of cultivation is long, and the road of hunting is also endless, and in the blink of an eye, three months have passed. At this time, Ye Mo was already eight and a half years old.
"There was a water chestnut deer three hundred meters ahead. Ye Mo said in a low voice. Immediately made a few quick gestures, and several people around him quickly disappeared from view. This is Ye Mo commanding everyone to close the circle, like a captain. However, everyone was not happy in the slightest, and even implemented it more quickly.
Ye Mo only continued to move forward after they all left, only to see Ye Mo's feet on the ground, his body easily jumped on the branch of a big tree surrounded by two people, and the footsteps were a little branch, Ye Mo's body rose up, and landed on another branch again, just this leap, he had already advanced more than ten meters away, and during this period, there was no sound, and the branch did not tremble at all. This is all the ability that has been cultivated in the mountains in the past few months, and the control of his own power has reached an extremely high level.
After a few tosses, Ye Mo had already come to the water chestnut deer not far away, and casually took off the big bow on his back, the big bow was the thickness of Ye Mo's arm, and the arrow of the bow was also the thickness of the arm of a three- or four-year-old child. Bend the bow and arrow.
"Whew......"
A sharp piercing sound rang out in the air. The water chestnut deer looked up vigilantly, and was about to flee when the arrow was already in front of him.
"Poof!"
A dull sound of piercing into the flesh sounded, and the water chestnut deer fell to the ground.
At the moment of falling to the ground, several big men rushed out of the surroundings, who were members of the hunter team who had disappeared into the jungle before. Seeing that the water chestnut deer had fallen to the ground and died, one of the hunters made a gesture in the direction of Ye Mo, and when Ye Mo saw this, he landed in front of the hunter team in a few jumps.
"Xiao Mo, your archery skills are getting more and more powerful, it seems that it is at least fifty meters away, an arrow hit the key point of the water chestnut deer, and he was killed on the spot, this is already the seventh beast that died under your arrow, and it is really a pleasure to go into the mountains to hunt with you!"
"In the future, we will simply form two squads into a team, and we will only be responsible for picking up the prey, and you will be in charge of the hunting!" quipped.
Ye Mo just smiled and didn't say anything.
"Okay brothers, let's move on! It's best to hunt another beast before this afternoon, and we'll be able to go home!" The team leader pulled out the iron arrow stuck in the neck of the water chestnut deer and handed it to Ye Mo.
"Keep going!" The group disappeared into the forest again.
From the time Ye Mo entered the mountain with the big bow on his back, the hunting of the hunter team was no longer as hard as before, but felt very relaxed. They went from being the main members of the hunt to being porters, who were only responsible for carrying the prey. Often before they found their prey, Ye Mo had already discovered their prey. While they were quietly lurking past, Ye Mo had already occupied an advantageous position. In the midst of their gestures, Ye Mo shot an arrow, and the prey fell to the ground! There was no use for them at all, but they were happy to do so.
Before dusk, they didn't encounter any more large prey, but hares and pheasants did encounter a lot, and after Ye Mo ended his life with a few stones, they also set out on their way home.
On the way back, everyone talked and laughed, and soon, they also went out of the mountain.
......
Early the next morning, Ye Mo had just finished his cultivation, and as soon as he went out, he saw Uncle Li waiting at the head of the courtyard.
"Uncle Li, why did you come so early?"
"Oh, Xiao Mo, don't ask first, since you have already gotten up, come with me first, the village chief's family has something to discuss!" Xiao Li didn't say the reason, and pulled Ye Mo and walked to the old village chief's house.
When he arrived at the old village chief's house, he found that most of the hunter team were there, and when they saw Ye Mo one by one, they all greeted him warmly, Ye Mo called the members of the hunter team one by one, and then went to the house, in the house, he saw the old village chief, the captain of the hunter team, Wu Lin, and the captains of the various hunter teams. Obviously, the core members of the Hunters are gathered here.
After seeing that Ye Mo was also here, the old village chief spoke!
"In the past six months, the hunter team has gone into the mountains to hunt and the harvest has been very good, and every house has enough meat in stock, and the scale of our village can be further expanded. If you haven't found a daughter-in-law yet, go find it as soon as possible, and strive to get married within the year, if the woman has any requirements, try to meet them, anyway, there is no shortage of meat in the village now. If you are married and have no children, you don't need to go hunting in the mountains for the time being, wait until your daughter-in-law is pregnant with a child. As for the younger generation, lower the age of marriage, and encourage them to marry when they reach the age of sixteen!
"Well, we'll go out and tell them later!" Wu Lin replied.
After listening to the words of the old village chief, Ye Mo was speechless.
Marriage in a mountain village is quite simple, as long as the man is strong, the village where the man is located is not weak, and then bring enough meat as a dowry, he can marry a woman from another village, which is understandable, after all, such a small mountain village, the pursuit is not hungry, safe and ordinary. If you are married and have no children, you should let them have children as soon as possible to increase the population, this Ye Mo can also understand, but at the age of sixteen, he actually encouraged his children to get married, this is ...... Isn't this just coming of age? Is it necessary to engage in family planning when there is not enough food in normal times???
"The second thing I want to say is that the hunting harvest in the past six months has been quite rich, comparable to the harvest of previous years, but the problems that come with it have also been exposed, Wulin, you can tell the big guys about it!"
"Okay, I'll tell you about the problems that have been exposed!" Wu Lin didn't have ink, and stood up and said directly.
