Chapter 528: Spiritual Power

"Master Yu...... Do you want to ...... too" After all, the eldest prince is only a seven or eight-year-old child, seeing that in the dark jungle, only he and Xiaocao are left, his eyes are a little uneasy, and he asked hesitantly.

Although the mountains and forests around here are dense, they are really nothing compared to those in the West Mountains of their hometown. When Xiaocao was still young, he dared to sneak to the periphery of the mountain to set a trap. However, feeling Zhu Hanwen's uneasiness, in order to maintain the self-esteem of a young man, she played the role of a weak person, and said: "The minister is timid, and he hasn't shot arrows much, so he will be afraid if he is alone." Your Highness, let your ministers follow you! ”

Zhu Hanwen immediately straightened his chest like a little man, and said, "Okay! Then you honestly follow Hongu's side, don't run around! ”

The forest grew deeper and deeper, and the low jungle was replaced by towering trees, and the dense layers of foliage obscured the sky and the sun, and the light dimmed. There were more and more prey, and from time to time a hare and pheasant would emerge from the bushes at their feet and flee in all directions in terror, with an occasional scream from their mouths.

An unknown animal swept over the grass's head, bringing a breeze with it, and she shrank her head with a scream. Zhu Hanwen was frightened by her cry, and followed her line of sight, and it turned out to be a mischievous little squirrel, holding a nut, sitting on a high branch, looking at them curiously.

"Didn't my father say that when you were in the country, you often went hunting? Isn't your dad a good bear hunter? Zhu Hanwen was speechless, and he didn't understand why his father let himself follow such a coward.

Yu Xiaocao was also very helpless, and said with a sigh of relief: "Country girl, where is there a bow and arrow?" The so-called hunting is nothing more than laying a trap and digging a trap! As for the bear hunt, my father went with the others. Oh! By the way, it's with the current General Zhao......"

The father and son of the Zhao family were at the border last winter, and once again repelled the attack of the Tartars and won a complete victory. General Xiao Zhao also won the title of "God of War", which the eldest prince naturally knows. He flattened his mouth and said, "General Xiao Zhao, the god of war, went hunting, let alone hunting bears, even hunting tigers is easy." Father is really, why are you lying to me? ”

"Maybe it's because Weichen is timid and doesn't dare to go to dangerous places. Your Highness, you will not be in danger if you follow Weichen. The emperor is also a loving father! Yu Xiaocao explained.

Zhu Hanwen's shoulders drooped, and he said with low interest: "With such a drag on your feet, it seems that this palace doesn't want to impress my father today!" ”

"Isn't there a little black and a little white? Let them work a little harder, and won't there be prey? Yu Xiaocao's words were comforting.

"The two of them hunted, and they both bit off their necks, and at a glance they knew that it was not the work of the palace. I also said that tonight, let my father and mother taste the prey I shot with my own hands! The eldest prince sighed, although there were many prey, they were all too alert, and before he could draw his bow, he disappeared without a trace. Now that I think about it, the first pheasant was shot indiscriminately by his blind cat when he ran into a dead mouse.

Yu Xiaocao looked at the sad face of the bun, groaned slightly, and said, "Or...... Wechen sets up a few rope nooses, and after the prey is lassoed, you shoot another arrow. What do you think? ”

Zhu Hanwen blinked his eyes twice, looked at her for a while, and then nodded: "Although there is a suspicion of cheating, in order not to disappoint the father and mother, this is the only way to do it." However, are you sure that the lower noose will be able to lasso your prey? Did you bring a rope? ”

Yu Xiaocao looked left and right, chose a flexible rattan from a big tree, used the small dagger in his boot to cut off the branches and leaves on it, and set a rope noose in a place where prey was frequent. Near the rope sleeve, some diluted spirit stone water was secretly sprinkled as bait.

[How come this god stone has such a stupid master as you, after drinking so much bath water from this god stone, you haven't become smart! ] Little Mending Heaven Stone sighed in her head in a very speechless tone.

"Can you not mention the word 'bathwater'? It's weird and disgusting to think about! Yu Xiaocao taught the eldest prince to set a rope sleeve while arguing with it.

Xiao Mending Tianshi snorted and said, "Don't talk about bath water? Okay! How about replacing it with saliva? Sometimes, when it releases its aura into the well water, it deliberately spits at the mouth of the well in the form of a cat. In fact, think about it, it's a small stone, where does the saliva come from?

"Say whatever you want, don't say those disgusting words!" After Yu Xiaocao instructed the eldest prince to make a rough rope sleeve, he asked the purpose of its appearance in his heart. This guy doesn't know what to stimulate, in order to go back early, the frequency of cultivation is very intensive, and often the dragon sees the head and the end.

[With your current mental power, it is not difficult to shoot your prey. Why do you have to do an idiot noose noose? That's a lot to do! The little mending stone did not forget to damage her.

Psychic power, what's that? Yu Xiaocao was at a loss: "How to use spiritual power?" And no one taught me, you think I am a genius, no teacher? ”

[You concentrate and stare at your prey, what do you find?] The little mending stone reminded her.

It was, a pleasant birdsong, sounding from the canopy overhead, and she raised her head, and stared at the unknown bird vigorously in the manner of the little mending stone, and was surprised to find that the bird, which was about the size of her fist, grew bigger and closer in her eyes, and was as big as a millstone. Moreover, its every move is as if it can be touched, and the action of combing its feathers is like the slow motion of a movie. Could it be that this is the benefit of spiritual power?

[How?] Do you think you'll be able to hit the target? The little mending stone asked in a wandering manner.

Such a big target, and it seems to be so close that a fool can't shoot it! Yu Xiaocao didn't say anything, untied the small bow and arrow on her back, pulled it away hard, and aimed according to the steps that Zhu Junyang had taught her before. The arrow went off the string and hit the stupid bird in the neck.

"Wow! Lord Yu, real people don't show their faces!! You can shoot at such a high and small target, and you still say you can't shoot arrows? From the moment she pulled her bow and shot an arrow, Zhu Hanwen held her breath. I thought she was just itchy and tried casually, but I didn't expect her to really shoot the target.

The voice of the eldest prince pulled her back from that mysterious world. She picked up the first prey she shot in her life, and in the face of Zhu Hanwen's envious gaze, a sense of pride rose in her heart.

"Tell Hongu, how can you shoot at the target so far away?" Zhu Hanwen's longing little eyes made people can't bear to refuse.

Yu Xiaocao thought for a while and said, "Ji Chang learned to shoot, have you learned this article?" ”

Seeing that he shook his head, he said, "Liezi. There is an article in "Tang Wen", which is about learning archery. To learn archery, you must first practice your eyesight, keep it in a state of not blinking, even if the needle pierces your eyelids, you don't blink...... You see, you haven't practiced your eyesight yet! ”

She deliberately threw a punch in front of the eldest prince, which was an inch in front of him, and Zhu Hanwen, who was suddenly attacked, of course reflexively blinked and retreated.

"The second level of eyesight training is to see a very small thing as a very big thing. Ji Chang practiced year after year, day after day, and finally saw the little lice bigger than the wheel. Yu Xiaocao told the eldest prince an article he had learned in elementary school in his previous life.

Zhu Hanwen thought for a moment and muttered, "Put such a small one, which can be called bigger than a wheel?" How long does that have to be practiced? ”

"As long as the kung fu is deep, the iron pestle is sharpened into a needle. As long as there is perseverance and perseverance, there is nothing that cannot be achieved! Yu Xiaocao's words planted the seeds of perseverance in the heart of the future prince. In the future, no matter how great the difficulties encountered in the court, he was never afraid and retreated, and won the trust and love of his courtiers. That's an afterword!

Yu Xiaocao tried to pull a few more bows, and sure enough, the admiration in Zhu Hanwen's eyes was like a surging river, surging more and more. It's a pity that the good times didn't last long, and it took a lot of mental effort to draw a bow and shoot arrows like this, and when her temples began to swell and her head was a little swollen, she realized that there was no such thing as a free lunch.

I took out the water bag and drank a few sips of spirit stone water, and my head was slightly better. Looking up at the time, Yu Xiaocao said: "Your Highness, it's not too early, let's go back and see if there is any harvest in the sleeve, and then go back early, so as not to worry the emperor and queen." ”

"The sun is still high, let's go inside, maybe there's a big guy waiting for us! It's not too late to check it out on the way back! Xiao Zhuozi, why don't you go back with some prey first, so that you won't be able to finish it later. Zhu Hanwen instructed the little eunuch who had been enthusiastically helping them pick up prey.

Xiao Zhuozi saw that the sika deer was the biggest prey they had encountered all the way, and there was no danger at all, so he carried a deer and a few hares and pheasants back to the place where the horses were tethered. Little did he know that during the time he was away, his master was in a vast web of intrigue, going through the test of life and death.

"Look! What is that? Like a huge mouse, its mouth and nose are a bit like a pig's ......" Zhu Hanwen quietly pointed in one direction, reminding Yu Xiaocao to look over.

Yu Xiaocao glanced in the direction he pointed, the animal that was gnawing on grass seeds, with stubby limbs, a large head and a thick neck, small eyes and small ears, and a mixed black and white bodyβ€”isn't this a pig badger?

"That's a badger, also known as a pig badger! The meat is tender and delicious. Its oil can be used as medicine, and it has a significant effect on the treatment of scalds and burns. Yu Xiaocao gave him a hand in popularizing science.

"Shh......h This pig badger was hunted by Hongu. Zhu Hanwen held his small bow and slowly approached the badger. The badger did not seem to realize the danger coming, dug a wild peanut out of the soil, bit the shell, and feasted on it.

I'll be back to work tomorrow. Alas...... Disconsolate!
