Chapter 5 Hunting
The next day.
As soon as the day dawned, the deserted streets were already scattered with elderly people, who carried hoes and walked out of the town to begin their day's work for the harvest.
At this age, the old man can't do the energetic work anymore...
The children and grandchildren have long since fled here and have not been heard from.
They all planned to save up more rations while they were still able to move, just in case of trouble.
Street corners.
A teenager squatted on the ground with his hands in his hands, his eyes looking in one direction expectantly.
Smelling the faint smell of food on the street, the boy twitched his nose greedily.
Familiar figures passed in front of him, and the young man hurriedly got up, smiling and greeting them one by one.
"If you really can't find it, the old man still has some food here, so you can take it and eat some first."
"Grandpa Li's kind boy has a heart", looking at the kind old man, Xu Buqi hurriedly got up and thanked him.
After rubbing his legs, which were a little numb due to squatting for a long time, the young man said, "Brother Li, they will be here soon, and the meal has already been settled, thank you for your kindness."
Although the boy's stomach was still rumbling, the old man just smiled and shook his head and walked away.
Everyone in the town knew that this stubborn boy had always preferred to go hungry rather than eat anything that anyone gave him to charity.
While admiring this kid's persistence, there is also a lot of helplessness, and over time I get used to it.
After waiting for a while, Xu Buqi rubbed his hands and paced in place, anxious at the same time, he was constantly hypnotizing himself.
Not hungry, not hungry at all, I'm full...
After some operation....
The effect is remarkable!
My stomach growls even more....
Xu Buqi slapped his forehead in annoyance, and while secretly scolding himself for being stupid, he couldn't help but think of a line from a movie.
Don't think about elephants!
The first impression in my head is that it is an elephant!
After a self-suggestion, instead of making him feel full, it also became the starting point for him to suffer even more.
In Xu Buqi's eager gaze, two familiar figures finally slowly appeared in his field of vision.
Two people, one slightly taller and one slightly shorter, came side by side.
The tall man's name is Li Gang, he is straightforward and scheming, he belongs to the master who can't hide his words, and it was Li Gang who pulled him into the three of them in the first place.
Being able to save so much money in three years is due to the small gang of three
The short man's name is Zhao Xin, he is smart and active, with a shrewd face, and he is also the sharpshooter among the three, and he can play a very important role in the hunting process.
And Xu Buqi also knows that he has little effect, he has always been a man with his tail between his legs, and he is rushing to do dirty work, and Li Gang and the others are also willing to take him.
Seeing the two of them appear, Xu Buqi hurriedly greeted him, and when he saw the things Li Gang was carrying, he was even more impatient, and took the paper bag that Li Gang was carrying, and ate it on the spot.
While chewing something, Xu Buqi said vaguely: "Don't waste time by walking and eating, let's go."
Li Gang laughed, stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder, took the water bag and handed it over: "Eat slowly."
When he came to the foot of the mountain, Xu Buqi had almost eaten at this time.
He hiccuped comfortably, and at this moment he was even thinking that there was nothing happier in the world than having a full stomach...
Looking at the mountain in front of him, Xu Buqi felt a little anticipation in his heart.
I wonder what harvest awaits them today?
"Let's go, try to get down the mountain before it gets dark."
Li Gang took out a firewood knife from his waist and held it in his hand, then took out the wooden bow and handed it to Zhao Xin.
Turning his head to look at the two of them, he admonished: "Our eyes are brighter, we are still the same as usual, don't walk in the middle, Zhao Xin is behind."
"I know Brother Li".
replied honestly, for Li Gang's arrangement, Xu Buqi was very grateful in his heart.
There are guards in front and behind, and even if there is an emergency, he has enough time to react.
Thinking of this, he glanced at Li Gang again.
The group continued deeper into the mountains, where only a handful of sunlight could penetrate the wide canopy as they continued to go deeper.
The surrounding light also slowly dimmed under the influence.
"Be vigilant!".
Li Gang came to a big tree and squatted down, waved to stop.
He glanced cautiously around, and said softly: "It's right here, pay attention to the surrounding movements."
Zhao Xin, Xu Buqi, the two reacted immediately.
After years of cooperation, there is no need to say much
As soon as Li Gang's words fell, Zhao Xin had already pulled out the arrow and pinched it in his hand, his eyes were like eagle falcons, constantly scanning back and forth
Xu Buqi took out a short sword from his waist, and a flexible dodge came behind Zhao Xin, back to back with him, leaving no dead ends.
After several years of running-in, the whole process is smooth, and there is no superfluous action in the middle.
Even the sound was only an extremely insignificant one.
"That thing is coming!".
Hearing this, the three of them were stunned!
Xu Buqi was even more inexplicable.
Because it was from his mouth that these words came out.
Facing the suspicious gazes of the two, Xu Buqi looked embarrassed, not knowing what was going on
If you have to say it....
That's the result of the mouth bypassing the brain directly.
In addition to a hint of wonder in my heart, it is almost uncontrollably blurted out!
Although Li Gang and the others were puzzled, they were puzzled, and they still looked in the direction pointed by Xu Buqi.
At this moment, the breathing of the three of them was much smaller unconsciously.
First, there was a slight sound of a dead branch breaking, and then a figure quietly broke into everyone's field of vision.
"Yes, monster!".
Zhao Xin was the first to recognize it, and the fingers pointing at the demon beast trembled slightly, not knowing whether it was nervous or excited, and the voice that was deliberately lowered was a little deformed.
"Shh~".
Li Gang held Zhao Xin's shoulder covertly and waved his hand carefully, for fear of making a little noise.
His eyes were full of jealousy: "This thing is not something that the three of us can deal with, and when it passes, we will go and find other prey."
As soon as the words fell, Li Gang only felt that something had stabbed the bucket in his waist, and he was suddenly frightened, and his hands subconsciously covered his mouth.
Originally, when he encountered the demon beast, his nerves were already very tense, and he was caught off guard by someone from behind for such a moment, and he was almost about to exclaim!
If it weren't for his years of hunting experience, I'm afraid their bodies would have been exposed at this time...
His eyes turned his head with fire, Li Gang still had palpitations, and when he thought of that terrible consequence, he unconsciously fought a cold war.
But he didn't ask out loud, but with a questioning look.
Xu Buqi realized his abrupt behavior, scratched his head curtly, and tiptoed in front of Li Gang.
Pointing to the location of the demon beast, he whispered in Li Gang's ear: "This demon beast is injured, and its intestines are hanging on the ground."
After finishing speaking, Xu Buqi consciously retreated and carried out the previous warning.
All you need to do is report your findings, but what to do?
In the end, it is up to Li Gang to make a decision.....
When Li Gang and Zhao Xin heard this, their eyes lit up.
Looking closely, I saw a hideous opening in the belly of the demon beast, the internal organs were half hung in the air, and the intestines had already been dragged to the ground.
The faces of the two of them, at this moment, became flushed with excitement, and even their breathing became heavy.
This is a monster!
The trio had been hunting together for several years, initially targeting herbivores.
Later, after becoming proficient, he dared to target ordinary beasts.
This kind of fierce beast is not unprecedented, and although it is unwilling to encounter it every time, it can only be avoided far away.
Compared with life, they all know which is more important
The current situation is markedly different.
This can't help but make the three of them have an adventure plan in their hearts at the same time!
Demon beasts are different from ordinary beasts, and their value is extremely high!
It is said that many dignitaries like to use monster fur products, and long-term consumption of monster meat can enhance strength, and bones can also be used to make wine.
Not to mention the most important part, Nedan!
The value of the Inner Pill is extremely high, even higher than the entire demon beast combined!.
The most commonly used is medicine, which can play a miraculous role with some other medicinal materials.
If you can successfully take down the demon beast in front of you.....
Li Gang, who had hesitated for a long time, suddenly showed a determined look in his eyes.
"First follow quietly for a while, let this demon beast bleed for a while, and then Zhao Xin's bow and arrow attack from a distance, and the two of us will go up the tree and wait for the opportunity to move."
Li Gang patted the rope around his waist, and then said to Zhao Xin: "Wait for the rope to be tied to your waist, in case there is a situation where we pull you to the tree, this demon beast should not be able to climb the tree."
After seeing that the two of them had no objections, Li Gang made a gesture, and the group of three quietly followed.
It took four hours, and although the demon beast staggered, it still had no intention of falling to the ground, and everyone couldn't help but feel a little anxious in their hearts.
But I didn't dare to make a sound during the whole process, so I could only continue to follow with my head bored.
After another half an hour, finally in the long-awaited gaze of the three of them, the demon beast was physically exhausted, and after a mournful whining sound came out of its mouth, it fell down unwillingly.
In between, I tried to stand up several times, but to no avail.
Now lying on the ground, only the abdomen keeps rising and falling, and the breathing is getting shorter and shorter.
Seeing this, Li Gang and the others could no longer suppress the excitement in their hearts, and their eyes showed ecstasy.
Zhao Xin wanted to step forward directly, lowered his head and thought about it, and finally stopped taking a step.
Forcibly suppressing the heat in his heart, Zhao Xin took out his bow and arrows: "Let's go according to the plan."
"No, let's go up."
Li Gang took the lead in finding a big tree and climbed it, followed by Xu Buqi.
After a while, a rope was lowered.
Zhao Xin didn't talk nonsense, grabbed it and tied it around his waist, and pulled it down with his hand, after confirming that there was no problem.
Shoot straight to the arrow!
Whoosh!
Two sounds of breaking the air sounded.
Arrows shot out of the bow and arrows at a rapid pace, and the target was the head of the demon beast that had already had more air out and less air in.
