Chapter 50: Hunting in the Mountains

Su Muran ran all the way to the river, because of Peleus's relationship at home these days, there were a lot of guests coming and going on both sides of the river, and the ferries from the surrounding two or three villages were arranged to the dock in front of Su Muran's house, and Ikaon had always been here.

Fortunately, the weather has improved recently, and the river has not frozen

Among the five or six boats, Su Muran saw the "giant ship" of Ikaon at a glance.

"Grandpa Ikaon, are you there?" Su Muran shouted at Ikaon's ship from a long distance.

Ikaon was lying on the deck, but when he heard the voice, he immediately got up, "Your Royal Highness, I'm here. ”

Su Muran ran to the side of the boat, Ikaon wiped the deck, and said to him, "Prince Achilles, please come up." ”

"No, Grandpa Ikaon, I'm just here to talk to you about something. ”

Su Muran shook his head and continued, "My father has already promised to take Uncle Phoenix to Thesalia, and he will leave in two days. ”

A hint of joy flashed on Ikaon's face, "I'll go back and tell him!" and then said to Su Muran, "Thank you so much, Your Highness the Prince." ”

Now that Peleus is king, it is a hundred times better to be able to do things by his side than to herd sheep.

"You're so polite. Su Muran shook his head, he didn't feel anything. Anyway, after Pelius went to Thesalia, he also had to recruit attendants and servants, and it didn't matter if he gave Phoenix a place in advance.

Icaon couldn't wait to go back and tell Phoenix the good news, so he didn't bother to continue the ferry, so he propped up the boat and headed downstream.

I didn't see it, this old man is still an acute child.

Su Muran rubbed his palms and went home, although he couldn't get used to seeing Peleus Tethys showing affection, but now he really had nowhere to go.

Because it's so boring.

Little Pat was at home with his father for the past two days, and he didn't have time to come out.

As for the little lion, he didn't dare to take it out recently, because it was easy for people to see that something was wrong.

Except for these two who can play with him, only the big white horse at home can let him pass the boring time.

But whether he wants to ravage the big white horse or the big-faced cat, he has to go home first.

As soon as he walked outside his yard, Su Muran saw Peleus standing at the door with a bronze spear, and Titis was standing next to him to sort his clothes.

"Dad, what are you going to do here?" Su Muran pushed the fence gate and walked into the courtyard.

"Haha, Achilles, you came back just in time!" Peleus immediately laughed when he saw Su Muran: "Let's go, go up the mountain with Dad." ”

Mountain?

Su Muran glanced at the back mountain covered with ice and snow, why are you going up the mountain at this time?

Peleus walked over, took Su Muran's hand and walked outside, and Thetis shouted at him from behind.

"Peleus, come back early. ”

"Don't worry, Thetis, I'll be home before dark. ”

Peleus turned back to Thetis and answered, and then dragged Su Muran to continue walking outside.

"Wait, Dad, what are we doing in the mountains?"

"Go hunting. ”

"What kind of hunting?" said Su Muran, glancing at the equipment that Peleus had brought.

Tease me, hunt you without a bow and arrows and a dog, with a spear and me?

Wait, something seems wrong?

"Didn't you get attacked by the wild boars in the mountains last time? This time Dad went to avenge you by killing a few wild boars in the mountains. Peleus explained with a spear in one hand and Su Muran in the other.

That's right.

After thinking about it, Su Muran touched his chin, and still couldn't help the doubts in his heart, "Dad, but you didn't bring a hunting dog and a bow and arrows, how can you hunt?"

"Haha, it's not that much trouble. When the time comes, you will see Dad spear one by one, and poke them all over. ”

Peleus slapped his chest with a bang.

Cut~ You'll blow it.

Su Muran glanced at Pelius with disdain, completely disbelieving what he said.

Although Peleus had a lot of strength, Su Muran didn't believe that he could easily overturn an adult wild boar.

The current wild boar is not the same as the wild boar he saw in his previous life, although it is not enough to say that "the wild boar has raced elephants", but the size is not lost to ordinary adult cattle at all. In this world, the wild boar is regarded as a terrible beast second only to the lion, much stronger than the wolf and the python.

"What's the matter, stinky boy, you still don't believe it?" Peleus accurately captured the flash of disdain on Su Muran's face, and he was immediately unhappy.

"No, I believe it!" Su Muran hurriedly retorted: "Then any wild boar must be as fragile as tree bark in front of you." ”

"Of course, I ......," Pelius was boasting triumphantly, when suddenly a column of guards patrolling around him approached him.

"Your Majesty, are you going up the mountain?" asked the captain respectfully after saluting.

Su Muran took a look, and there was a path up the mountain not far away.

This is where the mountains and the village meet, and wild beasts often come down the mountain to the village. In the last few days, the top officials of Segli have been staying in the village, and the soldiers are patrolling everywhere for the sake of safety.

"Well, what's the matter?" Peleus replied, halting his boastful behavior.

"Your Majesty, there are too many beasts on the mountain, so it's better to bring a few followers. Hearing Pelius say that he was going up the mountain, the young captain immediately said.

"No, I'm familiar with this mountain, and there won't be any problems. ”

Hearing Peleus' refusal, the young soldier captain was about to persuade him a few more words, when Peleus suddenly spoke again.

"What's your name? I think you're familiar. ”

The young captain of the soldiers immediately took off his helmet and replied in a loud voice: "Report to Your Majesty, my name is Otto Medon." ”

Seeing that face, which was still a little immature, a person suddenly flashed in Peleus's head.

"You're Yvomedon's brother?"

Hearing Peleus mention the name Ivo Medon, the young captain was at once agitated and replied in a loud voice: "Yes, Your Majesty. ”

Peleus was clearly in the mood to speak.

"I've heard about you, I heard that you joined the army last year?"

"Yes, Your Majesty, I joined the army after the Deer Shooting Festival last year. ”

"How old are you?" asked Peleus, looking at Ottomedon's age.

"Back to Your Majesty, I am sixteen this year. Alto Medon replied respectfully.

"Sixteen, when I was sixteen, I was still ......at home," Peleus couldn't help but look up at the sky, recalling when he was sixteen.

"Forget it, don't talk about this, I have something to do today, so I'll go first. But when Peleus saw the sky, he immediately remembered that he had something to do.

"Ivomedon will be given a great responsibility, and you have to work hard. ”

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

......

Peleus pulled Su Muran along the mountain path.

"Daddy, who is Ivo Meton?"

It can't be blamed that Su Muran didn't know, it had been a long time since he first saw Ivo Modon, and he had no impression at all.

The second time Ivo Modon came back to transport grain, Su Muran was lying on the bed and couldn't get up, and the two didn't see each other.

"Ivomedon is the captain of Daddy's guard, one of the two men who were with Daddy the last time he came back. ”

"Oh. Su Muran vaguely had a little impression.

"And he was also the one who was responsible for going to Kadica to build towns. Peleus glanced at Su Muran and said with a smile: "Don't you want the little Pat family to go to Thessalia with our family? ”

"Hey, thank you, Dad. Su Muran scratched his head and said a little embarrassed, in order to change this decision, Pelius must have worked a lot.

"No matter how you say it, you can't live up to the basket of bread you ate last time. Peleus laughed again.

I really am!

Thinking of the bread he had eaten all night that day, Su Muran's whole person was a little bad.

Looking at Pelius who smiled unabashedly, wow, I feel like Dad, you only need a three-piece set of sunglasses and cigars and a large gold chain to go to heaven.

"Achilles, come behind me. ”

Peleus, who was still laughing, suddenly turned serious and pulled Su Muran behind him.

"Hmm, what's wrong?" Su Muran said strangely.

"Look here. Peleus pointed to the part of a large tree next to him that was not covered in snow and ice, and the withered yellow blades of grass seemed to have been trampled out of a path by something.

Pelius squatted down and carefully looked at the marks made in the dirt, "It seems that this is the place where the wild boars in the vicinity can easily pass by, and these footprints should be left by the big wild boars." ”

Peleus stood up again and looked down the ends of the path. Some traces of footprints can still be faintly seen, but some are covered by light snow, so I can't see clearly.

"The footprints are messy, these are the marks of wild boars walking back and forth. ”

After observing for a while, Peleus finally gave up, he had not come to hunt for many years, and his technique had regressed somewhat.

"I don't know where to go to meet the boar, it seems that there is only one way. Peleus's face became more serious.

"What's the solution?"

"Wait!"

I'm dizzy! That's what you've come up with?

Su Muran rubbed his forehead vigorously, a little unclear why he followed Pelius up the mountain in a daze just now.

"Achilles, you can climb a tree, right?" Peleus didn't notice the change in Su Muran's face, and looked up at the big tree above him.

"Yes~" Su Muran replied weakly.

"Then you climb up to this big tree, just this branch. Peleus said, pointing to another tree next to him.

Su Muran looked in the direction pointed by Peleus, and the branch was about seven or eight meters above the ground. But fortunately, the bark is very rough, and it is not very difficult to climb up.

And even if he accidentally falls down, it's fine, he still has an invincible golden body to cover, and nothing can happen. It was also because of this that Thetis dared to let Su Muran follow Peleus up the mountain.

"Achilles, have you hid it?" Seeing Su Muran climb up, Peleus confirmed at the bottom.

"Alright. Su Muran gestured OK to Peleus.

What does that mean? Peleus didn't understand it. But it doesn't matter, because it's time to see him perform!
