Chapter 378: Bringing the King into the Urn
With the sound of a whining horn, the hunt officially began. Under the surveillance of the Black Tower family, the four young masters of the four families with twenty people walked in the direction they were assigned to.
Wu Gen and Yang Zheng did not leave, hiding on the hill on the edge of the basin and secretly spying on the movements of the camp.
"Isn't that the same kid who asked for medicine on Yingke Island in the first place?" Yang Zheng looked at Wu Gan's eyes and said in surprise.
"Yes, it's him, but I didn't expect it to fall here, and he was bought by the Mo Zhi family. But it's also good, and it saves us from looking for him. Wu Gen looked at the young man who had been struggling to seek medicine with some emotion.
Yang Zheng glanced at Wu Yan strangely, "I see that you are quite interested in him, but what do you think." ”
Wu Yan casually plucked a grass stalk from the ground and put it in his mouth, sighing, "Yang Zheng, you have some feelings about the training during this time. ”
"Tired." As soon as he heard this, Yang Zheng became angry, "These stupid pigs are slow to learn everything, and they can't even tell the difference between left and right, and sometimes their hearts are on fire, and they can't wait to shoot them to death one by one." ”
Yang Zheng suddenly turned his head, looking surprised, "You don't want this kid to help train the soldiers, do you?" ”
"Why not, he is from the army, so it is difficult for the two of us to use these two knives to drive ducks to the shelves. If you want to do it, I don't want to. ”
Wu Yan spit out the grass stalk in his mouth, "Get him out, there is someone to help, and in the future, I can't say that there will be more and more people under him, and there must be someone to control Fang Cheng." ”
"This time I helped the Qi family and the Baili family, just so that they can give us a place to shelter and shelter the Terrans living in Kuntianzhou." Looking at the cages in the camp, Wu Jian found that compared to when he first arrived, there were already four empty, and the people who were imprisoned in them were already dead. "Let's go, let's go meet this Mo Zhi family."
The two walked out of their hiding place and quietly rushed in the direction where Mo Zhicheng had left.
On the winding mountain road, Mo Zhicheng rode on a horse, carrying a longbow at his waist, and glanced at the entourage of the Black Tower family with a gloomy face.
Fang just tried to bribe this person, but he didn't expect to be rejected by the other party. What's wrong with the Black Tower family, sooner or later, they will arch down from the position of ten thousand households and trample on their feet.
In front of you is a rolling mountain range, and the vegetation is not very lush. After many years of hunting, as long as you don't go deep into the mountains, there are no large beasts in this mountain.
If you want to win this hunt, you have to hunt some strange beasts and strange beasts, so that the chances of winning are great.
Mo Zhicheng's eyes were red, and the green tendons on his arms were constantly beating. In the past two days, in order to improve his cultivation as soon as possible, he has devoured four tailless sheep in a row, so that there is a surplus of essence in his body.
Feeling the restless qi and blood in his body, Mo Zhicheng suppressed the urge to shoot the entourage of the Heita family on the spot, dismounted with force, and took the lead towards the deep mountains.
The surrounding guards distanced themselves from it, and everyone knew that every time they devoured the tailless sheep, their young master would become manic and ferocious, and if they were not careful, they would be whipped at least and take people's lives at worst.
Over the years, not only have many tailless sheep been killed by its stubborn exhaustion of essence, but even the shepherd slaves have died under their swords.
On the cliff in the distance, a triangular sheep appeared, gnawing on the moss on the edge of the stone, while looking at Mo Zhicheng and his party curiously.
Although the triangular sheep usually eats grass, there are not many wild beasts in this mountain that dare to provoke it. Without it, the top of the head has three feet of sharp horns, hooves as sharp as knife blades, and a body as tall as a zhang. Combined, these are enough to scare off quite a few predators.
The key is that the triangular sheep still live in groups, and once they are frightened, they will swarm up, and if they can't die, they will trample people to death.
This sheep is extremely difficult to catch, and has a strong sense of revenge, mostly lives in steep places, walking on cliffs and walking on flat ground. Hunters in the mountains generally did not dare to provoke such evil creatures, for fear of bringing trouble to their villages.
Mo Zhicheng glanced at the triangular sheep at a high place, raised his bow and shot it, and the arrow turned around and fell far away from the prey.
The three-cornered sheep glanced at the people down the mountain with disdain, and kicked a rock down with a snort. Soon, the valley reverberated with a roar.
Looking at the unscrupulous beasts in the heights, Mo Zhicheng's temples throbbed, and his gloomy eyes swept around like poisonous snakes. The guards suddenly became busy, some sorted out their bows and arrows, and some raised their eyes and looked into the distance, but they didn't dare to look in the direction of Mo Zhicheng, so as not to be targeted by him.
The deeper you go into the mountains, the more prey you have under your feet. Both the guards and Mo Zhicheng have hunted some prey. It's just that they are all rabbit badgers and the like, and these can only be counted as a fraction of the total when they are finally liquidated.
The sky was getting dark, and when I felt that today's luck was not good, suddenly a white fox appeared in the distance, fleeting, and the body was extremely fast. Looking at its shape, it should have lived for many years, and there is a lot of human flavor between his demeanor, and it seems that he has opened his mind.
Good opportunity, Mo Zhicheng is secretly happy in his heart, such a white fox is worth ten ordinary prey. "Drive." Without waiting to call the guards, he urged his horse to catch up.
When everyone behind him saw this, they secretly complained in their hearts. Mountain roads hurt horses, this is a truth that every rider knows. Rocks, dead vines, and shallow pits may make a good horse unable to gallop again.
But the young master in front of him obviously didn't think about this, and just blindly urged him to get off the horse, for fear of losing this white fox.
The horse team stepped on a messy pace and gradually entered the mountain. There was no road on the mountain, so you had to step out of the road, and the speed naturally gradually decreased.
The white fox tossed and moved between the mountains, jumping on trees and rocks, so inflexible. If the horse team stops, they will stop and watch a little, and shake their huge tails from time to time, so that the mockery is not too obvious.
Mo Zhicheng was on fire, waving the whip in his hand, and he did not pity the horses under him at all. A guard cautiously followed, "Young master, the mountain road is rugged, and it is easy for horses to lose their front hooves, so it is better to ......"
"It's not as good as what." Mo Zhicheng turned his head violently, his eyes were blood-red, and he interrupted the guard's words, "If the horse can't work, it's better for you to abandon the horse and chase me." A bunch of rice buckets, if you lose to someone else this time, see if I don't pick your skin, don't hurry up and chase me. ”
Seeing that their young master was angry, the guards didn't dare to say anything more, so they had to follow carefully. While running, Mo Zhicheng's mount under his crotch neighed, and the horse's leg was tripped by a dead tree, and the men and horses all flipped out.
The guards not far behind him were shocked, and hurriedly stepped forward to inspect Mo Zhicheng's situation. If the young master is allowed to fold here today, they don't have to go back to Mo Zhi's house, they just go to wander elsewhere.
Fortunately, Mo Zhicheng fell off the horse, and because one foot was still hanging on the stirrup, it landed right on the horse. Except for a slight lame foot and some abrasions on his body, there was nothing serious.
Seeing the guards surrounding, an inexplicable fire surged from his heart, Mo Zhicheng picked up his horsewhip and hit these people with his head and face, "A bunch of useless waste, I don't know what to do at home, I knew that bringing a few more hunting dogs was better than you." ”
The guards endured the pain in their bodies, but they didn't dare to dodge. This young master can only stop if he vents enough, if he is angry at this time, I am afraid the end will be even worse.
"Young Master Mo Cheng, it's still important to hunt, and you might as well talk about punishing the house slaves later." The people accompanying the Black Tower family saw that Mo Zhicheng was getting more and more troublesome, and couldn't help but dissuade him.
When Mo Zhicheng heard this, he threw down the whip in his hand, the violence in his eyes was almost impossible to hide, and he showed a smile that was more ugly than crying at the people of the Heita family.
Suddenly, Mo Zhicheng pulled out a long arrow, walked to the mount that was lying on the side because of the broken leg, and stabbed his hand down, and the long arrow was inserted into the horse's eye. Blood flew out and sprinkled Mo Zhicheng's face.
After a terrible scream, the horse twitched twice and died on the spot.
Witnessing this tragic situation, the people of the Black Tower family frowned slightly, as if they were a little dissatisfied with Mo Zhicheng's approach.
Mo Zhicheng wiped the blood on his face, pointed to the horse on the ground and shook his head: "This horse is already useless, rather than making it painful, it is better to give it a relief." Turning to one of the guards, "Give me your horse." ”
The guards didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly gave up their horses to Mo Zhicheng. Next, you can only rely on your own two legs to keep up, don't expect this young master to be sympathetic to himself.
In the distance, the hateful white fox poked its head out from behind the tree and scratched its head with its paws leisurely.
"I don't believe in this evil, and after I catch you, I will definitely concoct a good way to solve the hatred in my heart." Mo Zhicheng's teeth itched, and he took out a paper crane from a bag on his waist.
After a few words of recitation, the paper crane flew up from his hand, flew straight into the air, and waited for the sky above the white fox, hovering constantly, observing the movement on the ground
The white fox sensed the movement above his head, looked up at the air, and seemed to look at this uninvited guest with some doubts.
Suddenly, the crane swooped down with a roar, almost as fast as an arrow.
The white fox was startled and quickly jumped to the side, and the paper crane landed straight where it was standing.
There was a loud bang, and a large crater was blown out of the ground. The waves of air rolled in all directions, the grass and trees on the ground flew sideways, and the white fox was also knocked out and rolled out.
Seeing that this method was effective, Mo Zhicheng couldn't help laughing, and took out the paper cranes one after another and threw them out one by one. At the same time, they intensified their efforts to chase after the horse, vowing to take down this hateful white fox.
The white fox jumped left and right, dodging the paper cranes in the air, and his body looked quite embarrassed. Sometimes when he ran in a hurry, this white fox actually stood up and ran forward.
Seeing this strange scene, Mo Zhicheng shouted: "This fox has almost transformed into a shape, outflanked it left and right, blocked it, and waited for me to finish it." ”
The guards looked at the slopes on both sides, and they were all a little speechless, just in such a small area at the moment, how to outflank the left and right, it is difficult to stick to the slope walls on both sides. In desperation, he had to cross Mo Zhicheng one by one and chase after the white fox who was fleeing frantically.
Gradually, the group entered a long canyon, which was so narrow that only one person could go forward at a time. When the white fox arrived here, it suddenly accelerated, and disappeared into the dark night in three or two clicks.
Mo Zhicheng was furious, and was about to drink to order everyone to search separately. The people of the Heita family saw that it was already dark, and let Mo Zhicheng continue to toss around like this, saying that there would be damage again, and they would also affect themselves, so they persuaded him to rest for the time being, and he couldn't compete with a beast.
For the sake of the other party's face, Mo Zhicheng had to take back his life. Seeing that there was nowhere else to go, he simply found a slightly more spacious place in the valley, set up camp, buried the pot and cooked, but he scolded the guards again.
"Phew, bah, bah." Behind the mountain on one side of the valley, Wu Gen took off the white fox skin on his body and spat a few mouthfuls of saliva. The smell of this newly killed white fox skin is very touching, if it is worn for a longer time, it is impossible to say that Wu Gen can be fainted by the smell of the fox.
It turned out that the white fox who teased Mo Zhicheng along the way was played by Wu Gan. Even this fox skin was obtained by hunting a white fox by all means.
"Well, it's not hurt." Yang Zheng came out of the hidden place, looked at the big and small holes in the white fox skin, and asked with concern.
"It's okay, it's just that it smells a little bad." Wu Gen took a few deep breaths of cool air and drove the dizziness out, "Everything is ready." ”
"Ready." Yang Zheng carefully took a well-sealed leather bag, "This thing is so precious, it's really a pity to use it on this kid, it's better to take advantage of the other party's rest and cut it in the dark." ”
Wu Yan put the skin on his body, "Can you do it or not, we finally introduced them into this canyon, which happens to be a good place for ambushes." Moreover, if we do it, it is inevitable that the Mo branch family will see the hindrance afterwards and cause unnecessary trouble. I'm going, and you're going to do it. ”
As he spoke, Wu Jian did not rest, and hurriedly climbed towards the top of the mountain in the night.
