Chapter 4 Harvest is full
This difficult night, as time passed, finally passed.
As soon as the morning dawned, Su Qi'an got up early, Qin Ziyin helped him dress, looking at Qin Ziyin who was so close in front of him, Su Qi'an still resisted the impulse in his heart, just hugged Qin Ziyin, turned around and went to the corner to pick up the longbow sent by Village Chief Li last night.
Today I have an appointment, and I have something to do.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door outside the thatched house, "Did Master Su wake up, we are Li Hu and Zhao Da." ”
Su Qi'an hurriedly turned around and opened the door, and two young men wearing animal skins stood in front of Su Qi'an with red faces.
It seemed that the two had been waiting outside for a long time, but they didn't dare to disturb them.
Seeing that the two of them were a little frozen, Su Qi'an felt a little apologetic in his heart.
Li Hu and Zhao Da are both hunters in the village, they are first-class veterans in the village, they are generous-hearted, and they are both warm-hearted, especially Li Hu, who is not only the nephew of Village Chief Li, but also has excellent skills in observing words and feelings.
Although he is a few years older than Su Qi'an, he is very polite to Su Qi'an on weekdays, and he is one of the few people in the village who does not laugh at Su Qi'an.
Su Qi'an said softly, "Brother Li Hu, you call me that, Qi An is a little embarrassed, yesterday's shock is just a warning to those with ulterior motives, if you don't dislike it, just call me by my name." ”
Hearing this, Li Hu shook his head again and again and said, "Master Su, don't look at me as just a hunter and have no culture, but I still know some etiquette, no matter what Master Su says, he is a scholar, showing his talent and fame, and if he is on an equal footing with us civilians, it is very disrespectful." ”
This is the feudal system of the Great Liang Dynasty to give people the restraint of thinking, dividing people into three, six, nine and so on, this kind of feudal thinking has a history of at least thousands of years, and it can be said to be deeply rooted in the eyes of these ordinary people.
Su Qi'an wanted to reverse it for a while, but it was impossible, his eyes turned, he thought about it, and then said.
"Since you insist on insisting, I won't embarrass you, so let's stop calling me master, call me sir, so that you won't lose your manners."
Li Hu thought about it, and when he heard Su Qi'an say this, it would be feasible to go, and nodded to Su Qi'an, but in his heart, Su Qi'an's behavior still warmed the hearts of the two.
"Mr. Su really hasn't changed, it's good that he is still so sincere to us." The two sighed in their hearts.
"Li Hu, Zhao Da, if we are chatting, the wild things in the wild forest should be full and run away."
Listening to Su Qi'an's joke, the two quickly came back to their senses, showed an embarrassed smile, and quickly turned around and led the way away.
"Xianggong, be careful, if you can't beat it, don't do it, I'll figure out a way at home."
Looking at Su Qi'an, who was about to leave, Qin Ziyin walked over, held Su Qi'an's hand and asked.
"Well, don't worry, lady, the Xiang Guild will pay attention to safety, it's okay, I have me at home, lady, you are waiting for my good news at home."
Su Qi'an touched the back of Qin Ziyin's head with his palm, comforting him affectionately.
Qin Ziyin nodded lightly and watched Su Qi'an, Li Hu, and Zhao Dayuan go away.
……
The wild forest at the east end of the village is not far away, about two or three miles away, the three of them took advantage of the wind and snow to stop, and the road is easy to walk, about half an hour to arrive.
A dense forest, with the cold wind blowing, the snow on the trees shook off.
"Mr. Su, we have arrived," Mr. Su, you will follow behind us, no matter how many hits you hit today, you will definitely not let Mr. Su return empty-handed. ”
"That's right, Mr. Su, you can take a look."
Li Hu and Zhao Da subconsciously protected Su Qi'an behind them, and then slowly walked towards the forest.
No wonder the two are so cautious, there are big insects in this wild forest, and it is said that it is still a white tiger and a big insect that has become a spirit.
Although it is rarely found in the periphery, it is not afraid of 10,000 in case, and in the first two years, large insects rushed out of the wild forest and harmed people's lives.
Su Qi'an did not stop the actions of the two, his body was too weak compared to his previous life, if something really happened, I am afraid he would not even be able to run.
But Su Qi'an is confident that even if something happens, he can solve it with one arrow, how to say that he was a first-class archery athlete in his previous life.
The three of them slowly stepped into the wild forest, and after walking more than a hundred meters, a few hares soon sprang out of the white ground in front of them.
Seeing this, Li Hu and Zhao Da hurriedly shot with bows.
Sou! Sou! Sou!
It's a pity that all three arrows missed, and it's no wonder that the two of them can't do archery, and it's difficult to hit these hares on a snowy day.
The wild creatures of this forest are like spirits, and they run cunningly.
The three arrows failed, and the two of them only felt a pity in their hearts, so they could only continue to search for the next area.
Just as the two of them were about to turn around and leave, suddenly, two arrow feathers, whoosh! Sou! A sound swept from behind the two.
The next moment, he shot straight towards the dense forest in front of him, listening to the movement, it seemed that he had hit something.
The two of them were shocked, and hurriedly ran towards the dense forest in front of them, and when they looked closely, the two hares were stared to death by an arrow feather on the ground.
Looking at this scene, the two of them looked dull, and it took a long time to come back to their senses.
This distance, at least 60 paces, is still in a state of blind shooting, the shooting strength is very strong, one arrow pierces two, this level of proficiency, I am afraid that only those old hunters who live in the forest all year round can do.
But Su Qi'an is just a weak scholar, just like this, he gave them a hand, how not to shock the two.
Su Qi'an stood in the distance, leaning against a big tree, gasping for breath, for no other reason, the strength of this body was too poor.
If it were a previous life, where would it be missed, and it would be so out of breath.
Looking at the shock on the faces of the two, Su Qi'an explained with a smile, "Although I am a reader, I have also read a lot of miscellaneous books, and I am quite interested in dabbling in this area, and the theoretical knowledge is still very solid, as long as the position is calculated in advance, it should not be difficult to shoot, but I didn't expect to be so lucky today, and I actually hit." ”
Listening to Su Qi'an's explanation, even though the two of them had doubts, they were relieved when they thought about it.
In the history of Da Liang, there are really such marksmen, who don't even touch the bow and arrow a few times on weekdays, but the theoretical knowledge of archery is very solid, as long as it is taught a little, it can achieve this effect.
Maybe Su Qi'an is this kind of genius marksman.
"Mr. Su is really both civil and military, today is really an eye-opener, let's go, Mr. Su, let's change the next piece, today will definitely be a bumper day."
As he spoke, he was about to pull Su Qi'an towards the other side of the forest.
Su Qi'an smiled and nodded, but he was relieved in his heart, fortunately he reacted quickly, if he really showed something that was too beyond the people of this era to recognize, it would definitely bring him disaster.
"Looks like we'll have to be cautious next time." Su Qi'an said secretly in his heart.
However, how did Su Qi'an know that Li Hu and Zhao Da didn't have this idea at all, they should meet a genius-type marksman, and they all wanted to appreciate it well, and even teach it.
After all, if you can teach a true marksman, even if you have only a little to do with them, you can satisfy the great vanity of your heart.
The rest of the hunt went well, and in two hours the three men had caught ten hares, four pheasants, and even a small boar.
Most of the prey is the credit of Su Qi'an, just to not attract too much attention, for each prey, Su Qi'an has two arrows empty.
Even so, it still made Li Hu and Zhao Da ecstatic on their faces, and they decided that this Mr. Su must be the legendary genius-type marksman.
Seeing that the two of them were almost unconcealably excited, although Su Qi'an was helpless, he still didn't say anything, just said hello to the two, hoping that the two could keep it secret.
Regarding this matter, Li Hu and Zhao Tiantian agreed, of course they knew what it meant to be a genius-type marksman, and if they joined the army, they could at least be a school captain.
It's a pity that Mr. Su is going to be examined, how can he join the army, just think about it.
In the blink of an eye, the sun above his head gradually sank in the west, and Su Qi'an spoke, "Li Hu, let's go back, it's getting dark, if you continue, I'm afraid of danger." ”
Li Hu and Zhao Da nodded, as old hunters in the village, they naturally knew what it meant to be dark, and they naturally would not object to Su Qi'an's proposal.
Soon, the three of them put away the prey they had hunted and quickly left the wild forest, and not long after the three of them left, in the depths of this forest, a pair of red eyes that exuded devouring eyes seemed to be watching all this from afar...
The three of them returned to the village, which naturally caused a sensation in the village, after all, there were too many wild things they hunted today, and if they were all sold, they would be able to earn at least five taels.
You must know that ordinary villagers only spend about one or two a month, and their daily income has caught up with almost half a year's expenses.
Countless villagers surrounded Li Hu and Zhao Da, and praised the two of them for their ability, as for Su Qi'an on the side, not to mention being snubbed, but few villagers stepped forward to talk.
How to say that Su Qi'an has a meritorious reputation, coupled with the shock of yesterday's words, many people actually have a little fear of him in their hearts, and naturally dare not come forward to talk.
For the villagers' welcome to the road, Li Hu and Zhao Da both showed embarrassed looks.
On the way back to the village, about today's hunting, Su Qi'an instructed the two not to tell their role.
After all, there are many people in the village, and if it spreads, Su Qi'an will know that the disaster will be greater than the blessing.
In this regard, the two also promised to keep Su Qi'an secret, this kind of lively compliment, the three of them really couldn't stand it, and after greeting politely, they went home, leaving only a group of red-eyed villagers sighing at the intersection.
Looking at Su Qi'an, who returned safely, Qin Ziyin's hanging heart also fell, and he stepped forward to check if Su Qi'an was okay, Su Qi'an smiled and hugged Qin Ziyin in his arms.
said softly, "I said, your husband is lucky, not only is it okay, but today is full of harvest, but the lady didn't see the courage of Xianggong today..."
Qin Ziyin, who was held in his arms, nodded lightly, and didn't care about Su Qi'an's boasting at all, after all, men will have a time to behave.
It doesn't matter at all whether Su Qi'an can hunt or not in her eyes, she just wants Su Qi'an to be safe.
Feeling the warmth in his arms and the tenderness and sweetness released by Qin Ziyin's eyes, Su Qi'an's uneasy thoughts rose again.
But fortunately, he still restrained himself, not that Su Qi'an was not in a mess, but that he always had a bad premonition in today's hunting.
I always felt that behind him, there was a pair of eyes staring at him like staring at his prey.
Now we have to do the right thing, transform the longbow, this longbow sent by the village chief, although the range is good, but the accuracy is very poor.
If you don't improve it, if you really encounter any danger, it's doomed.
Seeing Su Qi'an pick up the longbow and start studying, Qin Ziyin said softly.
"Xianggong, are you going to improve this thing?"
"I've read a lot of miscellaneous books, I'm interested in this, lady, you go to bed first, I may stay up late tonight, don't wait for me."
Qin Ziyin sighed softly, looked at Su Qi'an with a smile, and then went to bed.
