At this time, the solar term is already early winter, and as soon as you enter the mountain, the temperature drops dramatically.

The clouds in the sky seemed to be pressing down on the trees, and rain and snow were falling in minutes.

Lin Banxia hadn't gone up the mountain to hunt for a long time, and this time he went up the mountain, he didn't care about talking, and was engrossed in searching for prey.

The green leaves of the mountains and forests have fallen, there is only dead grass on the ground, and the pheasants and hares that seemed to be hidden in the green leaves of the mountains and forests in the past are also gone.

Xia Changyan also stopped talking, and the two of them crossed the two mountains unconsciously.

From time to time, there were birds chirping in the mountains and forests, but the birds were too small, and Lin Banxia couldn't think of hunting.

The sky suddenly fell a little white, Lin Banxia looked up, and there was really goose feathers and heavy snow falling from the sky.

"Lord Wang, you won't be able to run away from the snow." Lin Banxia stretched out his hand and followed Xuehua with a smile.

Xia Changyan also smiled: "The chrysanthemums in the palace are also blooming, and it is not interesting to enjoy chrysanthemums in the snow. ”

Lin Banxia shook his head: "Don't be, I don't know how to write and ink." ”

"There are literati and a few young ladies, and you can walk around on weekdays after you get acquainted." Xia Changyan persuaded him.

Lin Banxia thought about it and was about to agree, when he suddenly saw Xia Changyan pointing into the distance and made a silent gesture.

At the end of the fingers, several animals that looked like deer and had no antlers were leisurely looking up at the sky, eating a few more mouthfuls of grass and walking a few steps.

Roe deer?

Lin Banxia lightly picked up the crossbow, pulled the bowstring, and installed a crossbow arrow.

Xia Changyan also bent his bow and arrows, but motioned with his eyes for Lin Banxia to shoot first.

Lin Banxia nodded, picked up his crossbow and aimed.

At the end of the field of vision are five roe deer, with crossbow arrows aimed at the strongest one.

Lin Banxia hadn't tested this crossbow arrow yet, so he didn't dare to hold it up, so he only aimed the arrow at the roe deer's abdomen.

Fingers are lightly hooked.

"Whoosh!" A cold light shot out and pierced the roe deer.

At the moment when the crossbow arrow was fired, Xia Changyan's finger loosened, and another arrow was shot out almost at the same time.

The difference between the two arrows was no more than half a point, and the first arrow pierced the roe deer in the abdomen.

The roe deer was pierced by a tremendous force, and the moment it fell backwards, another arrow followed and pierced the roe deer's neck.

The roe deer fell suddenly, and the remaining roe deer were startled, spread their hooves and followed the mountain beam in the blink of an eye and burrowed into the mountain forest.

Lin Banxia and Xia Changyan ran to the roe deer at the same time.

The roe deer fell to the ground, and the bolt pierced through the roe deer's abdomen, leaving only the tail exposed.

Another bow and arrow hit the roe deer in the neck, nailing it to the ground.

But the roe deer did not die for a while, and when he saw people coming, he struggled slightly.

"It's a roe deer." Xia Changyan said, "Let's wait, those who run away can still run back." ”

The roe deer, also known as the silly roe deer, has a serious curiosity.

When frightened, they often turn back to where they are, wanting to know what happened.

Lin Banxia hunted roe deer for the first time, and when he heard Xia Changyan say the same, he immediately pulled out the crossbow again and installed the crossbow arrows.

Xia Changyan was half-kneeling, holding the head of the roe deer with one hand, grasping the arrow with the other, and pulling it out.

The arrow was pulled out with a cluster of blood, and the roe deer twitched on all fours and did not move.

After a while, there was a sound of running, and the four roe deer that had run away ran back again, revealing their bodies at the ridge, slowing down and looking.

Lin Banxia picked up the crossbow again.

When the mountain wind blew, the snow suddenly became heavier, fluttering and sprinkling.

In the heavy snow, the figure of the roe deer looms.

Lin Banxia's gaze chased after another sturdy roe deer, holding his breath.

She felt the blood flowing rapidly in her veins, sniffing the smell of blood from the roe deer on the ground, and her mind was calm in the boiling blood.

The bolts moved slowly with the movement of the roe deer, and the roe deer suddenly stood down.

At this moment, the moment the roe deer stood, the arrows of the crossbow arrows were aimed at the roe deer's head.

"Smack!"

"Whoosh!"

The crossbow bolt pierced the roe deer's head, and the roe deer staggered and fell backwards.

"Good archery!" Xia Changyan praised.

Lin Banxia took a deep breath, raised his feet and ran towards the ridge.

Xia Changyan stood behind him, looking at his back in the snow flying in the sky, and suddenly regretted it.

It's time to prepare a set of brightly colored men's clothes for Lin Banxia.

It can be lined with the sassy and heroic posture in the snow.

Lin Banxia's arrow hit the roe deer's head, piercing through its forehead between its eyes, and the arrow directly penetrated its forehead and pierced the ground.

The roe deer suffered a severe brain blow and died immediately.

Lin Banxia pulled out the crossbow arrow, wiped the blood with hay, and retracted it in the arrow box, then took one leg of the roe deer and said, "Negligent, we can't take the two roe deer." ”

Xia Changyan smiled and waved his hand, and three black shadows ran out of the mountains and forests silently.

"Further into the mountains?" Xia Changyan asked.

"Nope." Lin Banxia said, "If the snow is heavy, it will be difficult to go down the mountain." ”

Xia Changyan stretched out his hand to take the crossbow in Lin Banxia's hand, and naturally held it in his hand.

"Eat at night in the palace? The king asked the cook to make roasted roe deer meat. ”

Xia Changyan said casually.

He was sure that Lin Banxia at the moment would never think of refusing.

Lin Banxia's eyes lit up, "Is roe deer meat delicious?" ”

"The roe deer is full of lean meat, almost no fat, the meat is tender and tastes best when grilled.

Go back and send two of the most tender meat on the ribs, and let the cook in the house make wontons for you to eat in the morning, so as to keep you strong all day. ”

Lin Banxia was even more tempted, but ...... She hesitated.

Xia Changyan didn't wait for Lin Banxia to refuse, so he continued: "There is a snow pavilion in the palace garden, and the earth dragon has been repaired.

At this time, the earth dragon is burning, the window sashes on all sides are open, and you can barbecue, enjoy the snow, and enjoy the chrysanthemum in advance.

By the way, tomorrow the stone and angelica will go to school, and the king will prepare a pen, ink, paper and inkstone for them, and take it back with Miss Lin after eating. ”

Lin Banxia's words of refusal were all on his lips, and at this point, he couldn't say anything.

"Lord Wang, when you say that, it's really impossible to refuse." Lin Banxia Road.

Xia Changyan smiled.

He knew that Lin Banxia would not refuse.

From Lin Banxia accepting the crossbow and dagger he gave him and agreeing to go hunting with him, Xia Changyan knew that he would invite him to dinner again, and Lin Banxia couldn't refuse.

Xia Changyan knew what he was doing.

He started by doing what he liked, and he was testing step by step.

It was a test of Lin Banxia, and it was also a test of himself.

Test the depth of Lin Banxia and test how you can win Lin Banxia's heart.

It is also a test to see how many things Lin Banxia still has hidden and whether it can surprise him.

Steward Xu drove the carriage to the foot of the mountain, and when he saw Lin Banxia and Xia Changyan coming down the mountain, he hurriedly stepped forward with his coat and hat.

Xia Changyan took the hat and brought it to Lin Banxia, and personally put on Lin Banxia's robe.

This thoughtfulness is really not like the prince who does not touch the spring water with his ten fingers, and it also gives Lin Banxia a new sense of Xia Changyan.
