Chapter 491: Tiger Hunting

"Good morning, brother. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

"Good morning, Annie."

When Wu Ming walked out of the room, Anne had already gotten up and was preparing breakfast with her mother.

Toast, fried eggs, sliced sausages, and warmed milk.

Wu Ming picked up a slice of toasted bread, lowered his head and kissed Anne on the face, then sat down and asked, "Aunt Angelina, how much money do we have now?" ”

"When I came out, the butler gave me a bag of gold coins, which added up to thirty. Master, do you want money? Angelina put down the jug in her hand and tied a napkin to Anne as she spoke.

Wu Ming did not answer, but simply calculated.

More than 30 gold coins are not much, but they are definitely a lot in the countryside.

One gold coin is equivalent to a hundred silver coins and ten thousand copper coins.

Put it on the earth, it is 10,000 yuan, and it is 10,000 yuan in the 90s, and the purchasing power is not low.

At present, the apple orchard looks like it will be able to sell fruit to the outside world in another four or five months, and it should not be a problem to withdraw ten gold coins, and the remaining money will be enough to maintain expenses.

"Give me ten gold coins first, I'm going out to buy something."

"Okay young master..."

Aunt Angelina went upstairs, and in a few moments she came down with ten gold coins.

Putting the money on the table, Aunt Angelina stopped talking, looking at Wu Ming as if she wanted to say something.

Wu Ming didn't ask, he knew that these ten gold coins were one-third of his property, and they were also the guarantee of everyone's life.

"Don't worry, I know in my heart that I won't spend it indiscriminately." Wu Ming smiled comfortingly, and walked out with bread and gold coins.

Seeing that Wu Ming was leaving, Aunt Angelina was embarrassed, and quickly defended: "Young master, these are your money, I just keep it for you, I..."

"It's okay Auntie, we're a family now, you can take care of Anne." Wu Ming waved his hand, pushed open the door and left.

When he walked out of the building, he did not call Old John, but walked to the town alone.

This is the town of Bahrain, with a population of about four or five thousand, and to the south is the Black Forest, where every household is made up of hunters.

In the bazaar, there are many people selling animal skins, and there are also people who sell the cubs of wild animals, and even young foxes can be seen.

Wu Ming walked around the bazaar, and although he didn't see a medicinal herb merchant selling bear bile and tiger gall, he found a grocery merchant.

"Little brother, I have everything here, what do you need?"

"Bear gall, tiger gall, leopard gall, snake gall, do you have these four things here?"

Picking up an unknown stone, Wu Ming asked while playing with it.

The grocer hesitated for a moment, seeing that he was not joking, before he spoke: "At the moment I only have snake gall and bear bile, and if you need the other two, I can keep an eye on them for you." But IMHO, there are very few tigers and leopards in the Black Forest, and hunters don't like to hunt them, so you might have to wait a few days. ”

"How much?" Wu Ming was shy and cared about the price.

The grocer calculated in his heart that snake gall bladder was not valuable, and bear bile was more expensive if it had medicinal value, and said: "Twenty copper coins for snake gall, fifty silver coins for bear bile, and three gold coins if the whole bear is needed." I don't have tiger guts and leopard gall here, and I have to ask elsewhere for the price. ”

"So expensive?" Wu Ming himself only has ten gold coins, and he can only buy twenty bear bile alone, let alone the whole bear.

In his mind, ten gold coins can't be spent at once, so he has to keep some of them.

After all, the money in the family is not rich, and he is now an ordinary person with no strength, so he still has to save some of it.

"Brother, bears are behemoths in the forest, and only the best hunters dare to hunt them. Moreover, it is very dangerous to hunt bears, and everyone would rather hunt rabbits and foxes than pay attention to them, so the price is very reasonable. If you think it's expensive, three gold coins for a hunting bow, I think you can take it and try your luck in the forest. ”

Seeing that Wu Ming had no intention of buying, the grocer began to sell bows and arrows again.

Wu Ming picked up the bow and arrow and pulled it twice, thinking that he could only do it himself, with his calculation ability, that is, with the physical fitness of ordinary people, there was no problem in hunting bears and tigers, it just took some time.

"I want thirty snake galls, plus this hunting bow, a dagger, and two pots of feather arrows..."

After spending five gold coins, Wu Ming left with a bow and arrows on his back and began his hunting journey.

For a morning, nothing was found, it was only the outermost part of the Black Forest, and there was no big prey except for rabbits and pheasants.

After drinking some water and eating some bread at noon, Wu Ming continued to go deeper inside.

After walking for about thirty miles, the weeds around him began to grow luxuriant, and the jungle path left by the hunters disappeared, and it was silent.

"Goo, goo..."

There were unknown birds chirping in the trees, and the weeds on the ground were half a man's height.

Wu Ming took off the hunting bow on his back, and the feather arrow was placed on Xuan and did not start, but the gaze in his eyes was changed to alertness.

Walking in the primeval old forest, the most terrible enemy is not the beast, but his own carelessness.

Wu Ming cautiously checked the surroundings, looking for the beast path left behind when the beast walked by, and finally let him find clues.

"Rabbit droppings, rat hair, and bent weeds. It seems that this is a beast road that is being used, and even wild boars are using it, otherwise small animals would not have opened the beast road so big. Unfortunately, there are still no traces of bears, bears like to rub their bodies and claws against the bark, and these traces are not found here. "Wu Ming checked very carefully, and never let go of any clues.

There is an animal road, which means that this area is full of life and has a complete ecological chain.

There are traces of gnawing on the grass roots on the ground, indicating that there are rodent activities, and the area of gnawing is not serious, indicating that rodents are not overflowing, and there are carnivores restricting them.

With this conclusion in hand, Wu Ming walked all the way along the beast path.

After almost half an hour, Wu Ming suddenly stopped in front of a thorn bush, and his hand holding the hunting bow tightened slightly.

"It's dangerous, what is it?" Wu Ming bent down and scanned the grass around him.

After a few breaths, a lone wolf with a cub appeared in front of him, seemingly looking for a companion.

Wu Ming didn't move, the wolf was not his target.

The she-wolf didn't move, stared at Wu Ming seriously for a while, and walked away away with the cub, as if she knew that he was not easy to mess with.

Seeing the she-wolf and cubs leave, Wu Mingcai frowned and continued to move forward.

In fact, it is not good news to meet a she-wolf, there is a wolf pack that means this territory, it cannot be the territory of leopards and tigers, and he has to go a long way to do it.

It was already afternoon, and it would be dark in a few hours.

Wu Ming didn't have any gains yet, even if it was his first time entering the forest, returning in vain was not something he liked.

"A bear, a tiger, a leopard, come out, my little darlings!" Wu Ming read words and shuttled through the inaccessible jungle.

Another hour passed, and Wu Ming saw the bear's paw prints, but unfortunately they were left a long time ago, and he didn't find the bear's shadow.

Wu Ming continued to walk in without giving up, other hunters might be afraid of here, but Wu Ming definitely wouldn't.

However, he also had a calculation of his own, and if there was no harvest when the sun went down, he would leave anyway.

After all, the jungle is not suitable for human habitation, especially this kind of primeval jungle where cheetahs live, and even Wu Ming is reluctant to stay overnight because it is too dangerous to do so.

"Roar..."

"Tiger!"

The sudden roar of a tiger caught Wu Ming's attention.

Wu Ming grabbed the hunting bow in his hand, pulled out his legs and ran towards the position of the tiger's roar, and a feathered arrow was already on the bowstring.

Eight hundred steps, 1,300 meters, Wu Ming is a jungle elf, rushing towards his prey.

After two minutes, you will reach an open area.

In front of me, it was two tigers doing something unashamed, and the male tiger was roaring in a low voice, pressing on the body of a tigress.

"Medium!"

Raise your hand, draw your bow, draw your arrow...

The accuracy of the bow and arrow comes from the coordination of eyesight and angle, as well as the judgment of the direction of the wind.

Wu Ming is the reincarnation of a strong man in the end, and the target he locked on is no less than being locked by a homing missile, and two feather arrows burst out in an instant.

"Knock, knock..."

Two muffled sounds came, and Erhu, who was doing something shameless, was directly nailed to the head by a feather arrow.

Wu Ming stood a hundred steps away and waited quietly, until the two tigers fell to the ground with a bang and the smell of blood wafted in, and then he walked up with a hunting bow.
