Chapter 6: Hit the Prey
"Except for the second uncle in our family who doesn't believe that I can hunt prey, who else doesn't believe that I can hunt prey?
Those who believe in me eat meat today, and those who do not believe in me have taken medicine today.
Who else believes me. Huang Zisu hurried forward, and she raised the bow and arrow in her hand towards the Huang family.
Today is the time for her to show off her skills.
"I believe in Su Su." Huang Mai Dong was the first to speak out in support of Huang Shiso.
"I also believe in the third sister."
"I also believe in Su Su." The juniors of the Huang family all spoke out to support and trust Huang Shisu without any hesitation.
"Daddy believes in you."
"Mother also believes in you." In the end, except for her second uncle, everyone else in the Huang family supported Huang Shisu's ability to hit the prey.
The reason why the juniors of the Huang family trust Huang Shisu so much is not only because Huang Shisu is smart and capable, but also because Huang Shisu has promised them before, but he has never failed to do so.
Although the elders of the Huang family did not believe that Huang Shisu could hunt prey after only learning bow and arrow for a few days, in order not to hit Huang Shisu, they 'opened their eyes and said nonsense' one by one.
After Su Su didn't hit the prey afterwards, they taught Su Su that people should not be proud and complacent, but be modest and cautious.
"Susu, you see a crow drinking somewhere."
"Fourth brother, you screamed so loudly, the crows were scared away by you." Huang Chishao saw that the crow drinking water was scared away by her fourth brother, and Huang Chishao glanced at her fourth brother and said.
Huang Cangshu knew that he had made a mistake, he smiled, scratched the back of his head and stopped talking.
At this time, if he dared to speak, his eldest brother, second brother, eldest sister, and second sister would have to talk about themselves and teach him a lesson.
Huang Shisu held a bow in her left hand and an arrow in her right hand, and she waited for the birds to fly over her head, or for the birds to stop at the treetops or rivers to drink before she shot a thunderous blow.
Now there is a great drought and there is a shortage of water everywhere, but from time to time a few birds jump around in the river looking for food, or there are birds in the river to drink.
Shiso takes a pose and draws his bow to aim.
With a 'boom' and a 'boom', a crow was shot instantly.
The force of the bow pierced the crow, and inertia carried the crow backwards for some distance, plunging into the wet riverbed.
The other birds fled in all directions like frightened birds.
"Hit." Huang Maidong saw that Su Su had shot an arrow at a crow, he looked straight in the eyes, and then shouted with joy.
The man quickly picked up the crow that had been shot.
"Susu really hit the prey, and we can eat meat again tonight.
Mother, are we stewed or boiled with this crow? It's still grilled and eaten. Huang Lian, who was walking in front, heard the sound behind him, he turned his head to look, and saw that Mai Dong's kid was holding a crow pierced by a bow and arrow, he ran up with a surprised face, snatched the crow from Mai Dong's hand, and began to think about how to eat this crow at night.
He also thought, his face hurts, he slapped his face so soon, Su Su has this skill in his hands, if their family wants to eat meat in the past, isn't it a matter of Su Su's hands moving his fingers?
"Uncle, didn't you just say that you didn't believe that Su Su could fight the prey?
Su Su also said just now, I believe that she will eat meat tonight, but I don't believe that she will take medicine tonight.
Uncle can't eat meat tonight. Huang Tiandong saw the crow that Su Su hit, his uncle's eyes lit up and he wanted to eat meat, Huang Tiandong joked to his uncle.
"Hahaha, the second brother is really fast in the face, my daughter is amazing, she learns everything quickly." Huang Bai looked at Huang Zisu and said proudly.
"What I just said, you all heard it wrong, I also said that Xin Su Su can fight the prey." Huang Lianmian did not redden, and his heart did not beat.
"Second uncle, a gentleman is hard to chase after a word."
"What is a gentleman? I'm a villain. Huang Lian glanced at the three boys, he was shameless and called himself a villain.
A gentleman or something, you can eat it, you can't eat it, when a gentleman has hair, eat meat, and be able to fill your stomach.
When everyone in the Huang family saw that Huang Lian was so shameless, they were not surprised one by one.
On the contrary, the two sisters, Red Peony and White Peony, saw that their father was so shameless, and the two sisters turned red.
With such a cheeky and shameless father, I don't know if it's unfortunate or lucky.
After Huang Shisu hit the first crow, she suddenly seemed to open the second pulse of Ren Du.
There is no arrow that misses the prey, either a crow or a sparrow.
Among them, sparrows are the majority, and after hitting more than a dozen birds in a row, they stop and go along the way.
It didn't take long for Huang Shisu to find a scrawny man lying on the riverbank or on the riverbed, with only skin and bones left, starved to death.
Some of the children fell on top of the adults and cried out.
There were also women who clung to their lifeless children, weeping and coaxing them to sleep.
More often than not, I saw a corpse that had been bitten by flies and smelled and unburied.
After walking some distance, I saw the corpses of people who had starved to death or died of disease, most of whom were the elderly, the weak, the sick, the disabled, and children.
Huang Shisu saw it in his eyes, but his heart was very shocked.
I feel that it is not easy for people in this era, and a small illness and disaster can kill so many people.
It can be seen that human life is like grass, and it is not easy to live a lifetime.
This scene not only shocked Huang Shisu, but also the rest of the Huang family.
The kind-hearted Huang Yaozi, Skullcap and the daughters of the Huang family couldn't bear to look at them directly, and their eyes were slightly red.
Everyone in the Huang family stepped up and walked forward.
Seeing that there was a large group of people walking along the riverbank in front of them, groups of three or five people, and many people in groups went to the riverbed in groups to look for things, like locusts crossing the border, sweeping around, no wonder their family walked behind, and could not find anything to eat in the riverbed.
"Dad, I'll go to the front to find someone and ask for directions, see where we're going?" Huang Bai had red eyes, and after taking care of his father, he trotted to catch up with the person in front.
He looked around at the group of refugees fleeing the famine, some of them were families supporting each other and walking forward, some were groups of three or five big men formed a team, and some were orphans and widows.
They are hungry and thin, unkempt, and disheveled, and compared with their own families, they really don't look like people who have escaped the famine.
Cork quickly locked on to the person who inquired about the news.
The other party is a family of six, and an old man with his son, daughter-in-law, and three babies fell into the rear.
The old man of the family was thin and thin, and the man and woman were also yellow-faced, and their eyes were blank, and they walked forward like walking corpses.
The three babies were all hungry and thin, their eyes were attentive, and they protruded slightly, which showed that the hungry ones had their eyes bulging out.
"Uncle, let's go along the riverbank, this is going that way, where to go?" Huang Bai stepped forward and bowed his hand to the old man.
"Your family caught up from other river branches.
I heard the people in front of me say that I walked along this river all the way to Yushuifu.
Our group of people have been walking along the riverbank for more than a month, but fortunately, we have survived for so long with a few mussels, small crabs, screws and so on in the riverbed.
You look energetic, you can eat enough! The uncle leaned over, his eyes were attentive, and finally he seemed to ask Huang Baidao unintentionally.
