Chapter 228: Song and Wine (1)

The pace of the Huaixi Army has moved south, the Zhongwu Army and the Northern Wu Army have accumulated enough strength, and the conflict is inevitable, how long can the rule of the Tang Dynasty last. Li Cong, Lin Du, Qin Zongquan, what will happen to their struggle? The eventful years have come, the beginning of the great chaos, or the re-rise of the fate of the kingdom.

Chapter 1: The forest of Song Chen, who has not yet woken up from his slumber. The sun hung in the eastern sky, slanting with its own radiance. All the trees in the forest are greedily absorbing the sunlight and stretching their bodies upwards as much as possible. Pine trees, camphor trees, acacia trees, chestnut trees, and maple trees are scattered, and there are also moso bamboos and wild tea trees in the middle, which are lush and green. The morning light drilled out through the gaps between the leaves, casting a circle of light on the ground, and the fallen leaves continued to accumulate on the ground, becoming thicker and thicker, and when you stepped on it, it made a continuous squeaking sound.

With the increase of the population of Shancheng County, there are more and more hunters, and the mountains around Shancheng County are active with a large number of hunters, who use bows and arrows, javelins, and traps to catch all valuable prey, such as roe deer, wild deer, pheasant, wild boar, and rabbit...... The prey that used to gallop in the mountains gradually lost their lively figures, except for Gongzhuling. The loyal army posted a notice early in the morning, and the people of the eyes were hunting in the area of Gongzhuling, and the violators were severely punished.

No one knows how the name of Gongzhuling came from, the people of Shancheng County only know that the place encompassed by Gongzhuling is too big, including five or six towering mountains, with countless mountain streams in the middle, and I don't know how many rich prey are hidden in the lush woods. But since the loyal army has a military Yang, they have no choice but to watch and not move, and subconsciously avoid this area. But today, the shadow of a hunter actually appeared in Gongzhuling.

Suddenly, seeing a rabbit appear in front of him, Li Cong was about to bend his bow and arrow, when he suddenly heard a whooshing sound next to him. Li Zhan was already fast, and with an arrow, the rabbit in the running suddenly fell to the ground. Li Cong put down his bow and arrow in disappointment, and muttered, "You are too alone." ”

Li Zhan didn't care, and walked over. Picking up the rabbit, he said with satisfaction: "Yes, there are about six catties." ”

Yang San was not as fast as Li Zhan's hands. Li Zhan stole the limelight all the way, and couldn't help but follow Li Cong's words and said, "Your task today has been completed." Hand over all your arrows! It's all your hands on the way, and all of us have to watch, it's so unfair!"

Li Zhan said without raising his head: "Next time, if you take the lead, I'll stop!"

Yang San said without hesitation: "Okay!

Qin Wan said not far away: "My lord, let's divide it into shards and partitions, and take care of the people!"

Li Cong shook his head and said, "That's terrible, if you are separated, the prey in the Gongzhuling Land will have to be extinct! No, no." ”

Qin Wan said disappointedly: "Then we won't have a chance to do it." ”

Li Cong turned his head to look at Li Zhan and said, "Give you three more chances." No more. Yang San, take away his arrows!" Yang San excitedly pressed Li Zhan and took away the extra arrows, Qin Wan laughed happily.

Li Zhan said with a bitter face: "You bandits!

Before the words fell, Li Xiong, who was in charge of exploring the path in front, quietly gestured, indicating that he had discovered again.

A few people tiptoed over, and it turned out to be two ferocious wild boars. Bamboo shoots are soaking. Looking at their appearance, they have not yet noticed the movement around them. The color of the two wild boars. It is actually dark brown, with a long mane all over the body, and the preliminary estimate is that the weight of these two big guys is definitely not less than two hundred catties.

"Good guys!"

Several people whispered in their hearts, clenching the weapons in their hands excitedly.

Because a large-scale singing party will be held tonight, interspersed with Qin Wandi's barbecue performance, which is the highlight of the loyal army, Li Cong was dragged up the mountain to hunt early in the morning. Li Zhan, Yang San and others are all excellent hunters, and they have harvested a lot of hares, pheasants, roe deer and the like along the way, but they have never found a big guy. Without the big guys, they can't show the ability of the loyal army, so everyone didn't give up and decided to continue to search the mountain, and finally the hard work paid off, and they bumped into two big guys here.

In the era when there were no guns, wild boars were not easy to deal with, they were very vigilant, very fierce, very powerful, and fast running, and ordinary bows and arrows could hardly pose a deadly threat to them. For ordinary hunters, the most common means of catching wild boars is to dig traps, and Li Cong and his team certainly don't have time to set traps now. However, a few of them are not afraid of heaven and earth, and seven or eight people deal with two wild boars, and they don't think there is any problem.

Without Li Cong's life Yang, Li Zhan and Yang San prepared bows and arrows, Xiao Qiandi and Qin Wan both pulled out horizontal knives, and Li Congji also pulled out daggers. Li Zhan and Yang San also carefully applied anesthetic to the arrowhead, but the effect of this anesthetic was average, and it had almost no effect on the large wild boar, and if poison was used, the wild boar could not be eaten.

Li Cong was not very proficient in hunting, and the commander-in-chief of the scene was naturally replaced by the showy Li Zhan. Li Zhan took the lead and commanded everyone to take their places. After these two wild boars were hit by arrows, it would be the best result if they attacked them fiercely, but if they fled separately, they would be quite passive, so Li Zhan quietly made gestures, and the eight people slowly dispersed, surrounding the wild boars from eight directions.

Sou!

Li Zhan was the first to shoot an arrow, hitting the front leg of a wild boar.

Sou!

Yang San's arrow was slightly slower by half a beat, and it ended up shooting on the thigh of another wild boar.

"Whew!"

The two boars were frightened, and both screamed, and then fled separately.

Gongzhuling, which was originally silent, suddenly became a chicken and a dog jumped because of the howls of these two big guys. The birds that originally roosted on the top of the tree, the hare lurking in the grass, and the poisonous snake hidden under the tree were all alarmed, and the top of the tree. In the grass, there was a sparse sound at the same time.

Li Xiong, Qin Wan and the others immediately rushed forward.

The injured wild boar was attacked, became unusually rampant, and ran blindly without dying. One of them actually jumped up along the ridge and threw Li Xiong to the ground. The knife in Li Xiong's hand was also knocked open by it, and it pressed against Li He's body, sticking out its long fangs. I'm going to bite Li Xiongdi's throat. Fortunately, Li Xiong's reaction was fast enough, and his hands tightly grasped the wild boar's fangs. was stunned and didn't give it half a step forward, but the wild boar was very fierce, and the front and back legs were constantly slashing, cutting Li Xiong's ground all over the body.

Li Cong hurriedly rushed up to help, raised the dagger casually, and stabbed the boar into the heart of the wild boar, the wild boar kept struggling, and the pig's blood was beating violently, but it was still frantically trying to bite Xiao Qiandi's throat. It's always Li Cong who inserted it three or four times in a row and didn't cut off. It wasn't until another Ghost Rain warrior rushed over, stabbed it deep into its heart, and then stabbed it four or five times repeatedly, that the wild boar slowly stopped screaming.

As for the other wild boar, it was not so troublesome, after it was shot, it actually came towards Yang San. Yang San drew a knife in his hand. A light backstab from the side stabbed the boar in the heart. The wild boar fell to the ground and couldn't get up. Over there, Qin Wan came over and made up for two knives, and this wild boar was over.

Xiao Qiandi's body was full of pig blood, and there were indeed many injuries, fortunately, they were all skin injuries, and his fingers were in severe pain because of the fight with the wild boar, so he patted it after he got up, and spit on the ground fiercely. This damn wild boar is too unrighteous to rush at him, and he is the gentlest one along the way, and has not yet shot an arrow!

Qin Wan and Yang San preliminarily weighed the weight of the two wild boars, which added up to almost four hundred and fifty catties, which was obviously enough for tonight's singing party. Li Cong then ordered Yang to collect the team to go down the mountain, and everyone cut down a few wrist-thick bamboos to carry wild boars, and four people carried one head and slowly descended along the mountain road. After arriving at the foot of the mountain, Gongsun Du and others, who came from the Zoumagang military camp to fight the autumn breeze, took it over with a smile.

"Such a fun thing, you don't even call us, and you are too unrighteous. Gongsun Du muttered beside Qin Wan.

"If you kid wants to go up, it must be the second Xiao Qiandi. Qin Wan said in a low voice.

Of course, Gongsun Du was not convinced, but in the end he did not defend himself. Interlaced like a mountain, this Xiao Qiandi is very good at fighting and killing, but when it comes to hunting, it is not a star and a half, why is this not the case with his Gongsun Du? He immediately changed the topic and said excitedly: "I heard that tonight's singing party, young girls from Shancheng County will participate?"

Li Zhan turned around from the front and replied clearly: "Yes!"

Gongsun Du rubbed his hands and said eagerly: "Brother's chance has come!"

Li Zhan said: "Be careful that you have too few rooms at home, and you can't fit so many girls." ”

Gongsun Du said disappreciably: "I didn't say to marry them...... You're just brainless!"

Talking and laughing, the group returned to the Lan family compound. Along the way, I met the residents of Shancheng County, and they were also nervous and excited to prepare for tonight's singing party, especially those young men and girls, who wanted to dress up beautifully, not to be the most eye-catching tonight, but also to leave the most perfect image in the minds of the other party. This singing party was originally intended for young men and women, as the protagonists, how could they not go all out?
