Originally, Lin Guyu wanted to go over and take a look, but thinking about the child in his belly, he pressed his stomach full of curiosity, and pulled Chi Hang and the two of them back together.
Their family is still very close to Zhao's house, and they can still faintly hear the movement over there.
Lin Xiaohan saw that Lin Guyu and them were back, and hurriedly got up and said, "Second sister, I'll go home and take a look." โ
"Go back and tell me who those two people are." Lin Guyu looked at Lin Xiaohan with a smile, "Especially a little girl, the one wearing a blue shirt." โ
"It's called Fan Xiaoqing." Lin Xiaohan thought for a while, and said seriously, "What's wrong with Fan Xiaoqing?" โ
"It's okay, just go over." Lin Guyu said with a smile.
Sending Lin Xiaohan away, Lin Guyu sat on the bed alone.
Chi Hang didn't have anything to do during this time, so he began to sharpen the arrow.
"Brother Chi Hang." Lin Guyu raised his eyes to look at Chi Hang, and asked with some confusion, "Who did you learn to use a bow and arrow?" โ
Chi Hang's movements in his hand paused, raised his eyes to look at Lin Guyu, and then lowered his head, "My master is a hunter." โ
Lin Guyu helped Dousha change his clothes and glanced up at Chi Hang.
"I only know my master's surname Xu, and I don't know anything else." Chi Hang's movements stopped, he took a deep breath, and frowned, "When I was ten years old, I secretly went to the mountains to play, and was later chased by a wolf. โ
"That's when my master appeared, and he shot an arrow directly into the wolf's eye, and the wolf fled."
Until now, Chi Hang still clearly remembers the scene at that time.
He lay on the ground in embarrassment, desperately crawling forward.
A pair of feet appeared in front of him, and Chi Hang looked up along those feet and saw an old man with a rickety body.
The man's face was wrinkled, thin, and the only thing that people remembered clearly were those eyes.
Those eyes are full of shrewdness, and they seem to be able to see through people's hearts.
Chi Hang knew that person, and he heard his mother say that he was a madman, and others called him Xu Madman.
Their family has been hunters since their ancestors, and when it comes to the generation of Xu Luozi, there is only Xu Luozi and his grandson left.
I don't know if it's because their ancestors have killed people for generations, Xu Maniac's son and daughter-in-law were bitten to death by wild beasts one winter, leaving him and a three-year-old grandson.
However, in the summer of the following year, the grandson of the madman Xu was taken away by the wolves, and the madman Xu was red in the eyes of the wolf killer, and watched his grandson being thrown down the high mountain by the wolves.
Since then, Xu Luozi has no relatives by his side, and he goes to the wolves every day like crazy, wanting to kill all the wolves.
But those wolves seemed to have spirituality, and every time they met Xu Maniac, they fled directly, not meeting Xu Maniac at all.
Madman Xu looked coldly at the man kneeling on the ground, frowned, slowly put down the bow in his hand, and turned to leave.
Frightened, Chi Hang got up tremblingly, and stood slightly behind Madman Xu.
The people in the village were reluctant to have too much contact with Xu, all because they were afraid that the wolves would harm them.
The wolves basically don't go down the mountain to eat people, and for so many years, all the food they eat is the family of Xu Maniac.
So adults and children never approached Madman Xu, and whenever Madman Xu appeared, they all turned around and left.
Madman Xu's footsteps slowly stopped.
There was not a trace of blood on Chi Hang's face, and he raised his eyes to look at Madman Xu.
Those sharp eyes stared at Chi Hang's face, making Chi Hang feel like he couldn't escape if he wanted to.
"What do you follow me?" Madman Xu's voice was hoarse and vicissitudes, and his voice was thick, which did not match his image at all.
Chi Hang didn't know why he was following Xu Maniac, but he felt very scared.
When the wolf opened his mouth to swallow him, Chi Hang felt that he couldn't live, and he was terrified.
Looking at Chi Hang's sluggish appearance, Madman Xu's brows frowned slightly, "I'm an ominous person." โ
"No, it's not." Chi Hang didn't know where he got the courage at that time, "I know, those things have nothing to do with you. โ
The wind blew slowly, blowing Chi Hang's clothes.
Chi Hang, who was originally covered in a cold sweat, only felt a chill behind him, and his body couldn't help but shiver.
Hearing Chi Hang say this, the expression on Madman Xu's face froze, his eyes looked at Chi Hang's body, and he turned to leave.
Chi Hang staggered behind Madman Xu, clutching his clothes with both hands.
When he arrived at the bottom of the mountain, Madman Xu didn't look at Chi Hang, and said indifferently, "You can go home by yourself." โ
Only then did Chi Hang react, and Madman Xu sent him to the bottom of the mountain.
"Thanks, thanks." Chi Hang's voice was a little trembling, and as soon as he turned his head, he saw Madman Xu turn around and walk towards the mountain.
Since then, every time there is food at home, Chi Hang will always secretly keep a little and run to Xu Maniac's house.
Madman Xu always spoke coldly to Chi Hang at first, but then saw that no matter what he said, Chi Hang still came here to deliver food, so he turned around and left.
Since the time when Madman Xu didn't say anything, Chi Hang came even happier.
In his spare time, Chi Hang always sneaks over here to help Xu Luozi chop wood or do some sweeping work.
A year has passed in a blink of an eye, and Chi Hang is helping Xu Maniac chop wood as usual.
"I said boy." Madman Xu sat on the stone, holding a blade in his hand, and began to sharpen the arrow, without looking at Chi Hang, and asked casually.
Chi Hang was originally chopping wood, but when he heard Madman Xu's words, he suddenly straightened up, looked back at Madman Xu, and looked at Madman Xu with some incredulity.
For more than a year, Madman Xu basically ignored him, but he didn't expect Madman Xu to speak today.
Chi Hang picked up the axe, looked at the axe in his hand, and then put the axe aside, the expression on his face was a little embarrassed, and he called out in a low voice, "Grandpa." โ
After hearing Chi Hang say this, Madman Xu stopped what he was doing, raised his eyes to look at Chi Hang, and asked seriously, "Do you want to learn to hunt?" โ
Chi Hang looked at Madman Xu in astonishment, and didn't know what to say for a while.
"Want to learn?" Madman Xu was patient and spoke again.
The hoarse voice is like a ghost from hell.
"Yes." Chi Hang nodded hesitantly, and said a little uncomfortably.
Madman Xu slowly stood up and walked slowly in front of Chi Hang, "If you want to learn, you have to make me a master." โ
Chi Hang listened to what Madman Xu said, and hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed.
Madman Xu looked at Chi Hang's appearance, his eyes were calm, and he said lightly, "I have one thing, what you want to do in this life, is to kill the wolf king with a scar on his forehead!" โ
Kill the Wolf King.
The wolf king is the most brave and combative of the wolf pack, and they have the same intelligence as a human.
Perhaps those rumors are true, and Xu's relatives were killed by wolves.
Madman Xu looked at Chi Hang calmly, as if waiting for Chi Hang's answer.
"Yes." Chi Hang responded seriously.
"As long as you kill that wolf king, you can be regarded as truly entering my door," Madman Xu said sonorously.
Inexplicably, Chi Hang always felt that Xu Maniac was different from ordinary people.
In the next two years, in addition to doing household work every day, the rest of Chi Hang was to learn to hunt with Xu Maniac.
I have been learning the arrow method for a long time, and there is also a way to survive in the mountains, and the madman Xu taught him everything.
Lin Guyu sat on the edge of the bed, continuing the work in his hand, frowning slightly, "Your master looks like a weirdo. โ
"Yes." Chi Hang continued to sharpen the arrows, because the hunter's arrows will run out one day, and only by slowly learning to sharpen the arrows can he get more arrows, "I also think that the master is a weirdo." โ
"By the way, did the wolf king kill?" Lin Guyu raised his eyes curiously and looked at Chi Hang and asked.
"Nope." Chi Hang's brows furrowed slightly, and he sighed slowly, "For so many years, every time I went into the mountains to hunt, I never saw that wolf king. โ
"Then what your master asked you to do, you haven't finished it yet." Lin Guyu sighed lightly, she also understood what Master Chi Hang was thinking.
The whole family was killed by the wolf king, and they still had any thoughts of living, the only thought was to kill those wolves.
Chi Hang pursed his lips slightly, frowning slightly, "I suspect that the wolf king has escaped." โ
Lin Guyu couldn't help but smile when he heard Chi Hang say this, "It's been so many years, maybe that wolf will die of old age." โ
Chi Hang frowned slightly, "I haven't completed the tasks that Master gave me. โ
Before Lin Guyu could speak, he heard footsteps outside.
Lin Xiaohan panted and ran in from outside.
"Second sister, brother-in-law." Lin Xiaohan stood aside with sweat on his forehead, and said in a low voice, "Those two people came today to talk about marriage with the eldest sister." โ
"Marriage, that's good, it's finally married." Lin Guyu said lightly, if Lin Lixia marries, it will save a lot of trouble, and save Lin Lixia from looking for trouble every day.
Lin Xiaohan said with a sad face, "Mother and father also think that this is a good thing, after all, the eldest sister is married, and the child in her belly deserves a father." โ
The expression on Lin Guyu's face paused, he raised his eyes to look at Lin Xiaohan, and said in wonder, "Yes, this is a good thing, is there any other problem?" โ
It is estimated that there will definitely not be a lot of dowry, Lin Guyu thought lightly.
Hearing Lin Guyu say this, Lin Xiaohan said with a sad face, "But the eldest sister is unwilling to live or die, saying that she wants her to marry, she would rather kill herself!" โ
This is strange, Lin Guyu's brows frowned slightly, confused, "Didn't she always want to find a father for the child in her belly, and now she has given up a great opportunity, which is unreasonable." โ
Chi Hang sat on the side and began to sharpen the arrow rhythmically.
Lin Guyu sat in place, frowning slightly, puzzled.
