Chapter 57: Cold on the outside and hot on the inside
For a moment.
The one man and one tiger in front of him approached.
The white-fronted insect roared, opened its big mouth and jumped up, and pounced on Xue Hu.
Xue Hu's body rushed forward and fell to his knees, leaning back, avoiding the frontal bite of the big insect and sliding past the big insect.
It's just that although Xue Hu escaped the bite of the big insect, his right shoulder was still rubbed by the claws of the big insect, leaving three claw marks on his clothes.
Fortunately, Xue Hu was fine, but his clothes were torn and he didn't hurt his flesh.
And Xue Hu is not just passively dodging, he also attacks!
At the moment when he slid past the big insect, Xue Hu's one-eyed eyes flashed, and the right hand holding the knife slashed back, directly slashing at the big insect's left hind leg.
In an instant, a hole was opened on the left hind leg of the big worm, and blood flowed.
"Roar!"
The big insect let out an angry roar of pain.
And this blow also completely angered the big insect, and the fierce light in the big insect's eyes was revealed, and as soon as it landed, it pounced violently, opened its bloody mouth and bit Xue Hu.
Xue Hu didn't stop at all, turned around, and swung his knife to kill the big insect.
Suddenly, a man and a tiger fought together, causing the surrounding grass to collapse and the ground was in shambles.
Over there.
Li Hongyi didn't watch the play, and shot arrows from time to time to assist Xue Hu.
A martial arts master, a marksman!
Under the cooperation of the two, no matter how strong the big insect is, it can't bear it!
In just a few breaths, several arrows were inserted into his body, and there were several more knife cuts, and his entire body was dripping with blood.
Fortunately, the big insect was strong enough, its body was strong enough, and its skin was tight enough, and the knife wound and arrow remained on it, but it did not make it fatal.
"Roaring ......"
Throwing himself into the air again, the big insect let out an unwilling and painful roar, and then turned around and rushed to the woods on the right.
See here.
"Humph! If you want to escape at this time, can you escape? ”
Xue Hu snorted coldly, and he had just avoided the big insect tiger, and threw the waist knife in his hand in front of the big insect.
In that way, as long as the big worm advances again, it will definitely hit the thrown waist knife headlong.
But the big insect is not stupid, seeing this, the impact of the body suddenly stopped, so that the waist knife pierced the ground in front of it.
"Roar!"
Glancing at the hilt of the knife that was still shaking on the ground, the big worm let out a low roar and rushed forward again.
Only this time, the big insect couldn't rush.
Not only that, but the body of the big insect at this time suddenly flew back.
However, when the big insect stopped, Xue Hu flashed behind it, and when it was about to continue to escape, he grabbed its tail and threw it back.
"Roar!"
The body suddenly took off, the big insect was furious, and the sturdy body twisted in the air, opening its mouth and biting Xue Hu.
"Humph!"
Xue Hu sneered, grabbed the tail of the big insect, and smashed it to the ground.
Then, Xue Hu quickly turned over and straddled the big insect's neck, strangled the big insect's neck with his left hand like a pincer, and smashed the big insect's head with a fist with his right hand.
"Roar ......"
The big insect was in pain, roared again and again, struggled frantically, and almost lifted Xue Hu away.
Seeing this, Li Hongyi shouted in vain:
"Tiger Master!"
As soon as the voice started, Li Hongyi quickly threw an arrow at Xue Hu.
Xue Hu heard the sound, he didn't look back, his right hand that clenched his fist grabbed in vain, grabbed the arrow that was thrown from him, and then stabbed into the right eye of the big insect, and finally pierced through the left eye of the big insect, revealing a bloody arrow.
Immediately, Xue Hu let go of the big insect and took a few steps back.
"Roar ......"
Unrestrained, the big insect stood up and howled miserably, bringing down a bush.
But the eye was blinded, the head was hit hard, and after a while, the big insect fell to the ground, and gradually lost its breath.
It was only at this time that Zhao Yu followed Li Hongyi and Li Tai and approached the big insect in shock.
"Tsk! I thought I would have to spend a lot of time looking for it, but I didn't expect it to happen, but it saved us a lot of trouble! ”
Li Hongyi kicked the big insect on the ground, and then looked at Xue Hu with a smile.
Zhao Yu also looked around the big worm, then looked at the arrow that stabbed it into the eye, and finally looked up at Xue Hu.
Catching arrows in the air, or eyes don't see, is this still human?
Xue Hu smiled at Li Hongyi at this time and nodded:
"It really saved us a lot of trouble!"
As he spoke, Xue Hu looked at Zhao Yu again and grinned:
"I don't know if your kid is unlucky or lucky! I was almost swallowed by a big worm, but it also made us easily encounter a big worm, this kind of thing, but it is rare to come to this periphery! ”
"I'm fine, of course I'm lucky!"
Zhao Yu raised his chin proudly, but then thought about it again, and asked with a dripping look in his eyes:
"Master Tiger, are we here to hunt this time?"
"Not bad! This thing has the main material for brewing medicinal wine, in addition to taking you through the experience, it is here for it! ”
Xue Hu nodded, and after finishing speaking, he waved his hand at several people:
"Now that we have the things, then we will go back early and leave after eating!"
"Yes!"
Li Hongyi and Li Tai nodded, and together they carried the big worm on the ground to the fire.
Then, the four of them ate the roast pork on the fire separately, and then carried the basket containing wild boar on their backs, carried the big worm, and walked towards the outside of Hutou Mountain.
The wild boar weighed more than 200 catties, and the four of them ate one, and there was one pork left that couldn't be thrown away, and it was all put in Li Tai's back basket.
When they came out of Hutou Mountain, the four of them hunted some more prey, and then returned with a full load.
......
When I returned to Peach Blossom Village, it was already Shen Shi.
Xue Hu handed over all the prey to the Li family father and son to deal with, and he took the materials of the big insect and returned to Changning County with Zhao Yu.
On the official road into the city, the carriage rattled forward.
Inside the carriage.
Xue Hu and Zhao Yu changed back into the outfits they had when they came, and Zhao Yu sat on the side of the carriage, playing with his small horned bow in his hand.
At the door of the carriage, there is a basket with animal bones and other things, which smell of blood.
But fortunately, the curtains of the carriage are opened, and the ventilation effect is good, so there is not much smell in the carriage.
Xue Hu looked at Zhao Yu, then took out two things from behind him and threw them at Zhao Yu's feet.
It was two sturdy strips of black cloth with several finger-wide cloth bags sewn into them, and iron blocks were stuck in them.
Seeing this, Zhao Yu looked at Xue Hu suspiciously.
Xue Hu pointed to the two things and said:
"This is what Li Tai has used, you tie them to your calves every day in the future, don't take them off, it can exercise your leg strength and make you as light as a swallow!"
"Yes, Master Tiger!"
Zhao Yu nodded, and tied the cloth bag to his feet with great interest.
This thing, Zhao Yu recognized it at a glance, and he knew what the benefits were, he had planned to get one himself, but he had never been free, but he didn't expect Xue Hu and them to have this kind of thing.
Seeing Zhao Yu busy with his work, Xue Hu slowly spoke again:
"You also have to practice your archery, and in the future, you will come to Peach Blossom Village every once in a while and find Lao Li to teach you archery! There is also medicinal wine for practicing martial arts, there are materials today, and after I go back, I will teach you how to make medicinal wine! ”
"Hmm!"
Zhao Yu, who lowered his head and tied his leggings, nodded subconsciously, but then he realized something, and his hand moved, and he looked at Xue Hu in astonishment:
"Master Tiger, you mean, tell me the recipe for the secret medicine?"
How precious the secret medicine formula needed to practice martial arts is, Zhao Yu is very clear now, it is not an exaggeration to call it an heirloom, no one will pass it on easily, Zhao Yu didn't expect Xue Hu to give him this.
"The martial arts are all handed over to you, what is this? This secret recipe was passed down to the boxer I was a teenager with, and now that you have learned the leg technique, it is natural that you will pass it on to you! ”
Xue Hu glanced at Zhao Yu lightly, then said no more, and slowly closed his eyes.
Zhao Yu was excited, who doesn't want this kind of thing?
Of course, Zhao Yu is more grateful, grateful to Xue Hu!
Xue Hu didn't ask for anything in return, although he didn't have an apprentice, he treated him better than an apprentice!
A wave of admiration rose in his heart for the cold man in front of him, and Zhao Yu's eyes were full of determination after gratitude!
