"No one really thinks they can hunt with a broken log, right?"

Wang Wu leaned against the earthen wall and sneered.

"Don't die in the mountains and be taken away by wolves!"

Qin Zhen didn't bother to talk nonsense with him, so he walked past him and walked straight towards the entrance of the village.

On the way, I met Li Han from the west of the village, this kid was a few months older than Qin Zhen, thin and tall, with a few taels of meat on his body, and his skinny body was diametrically opposed to a slightly bulging little belly, which was eaten by Guanyin soil.

Such a person will not live long.

During the drought a few years ago, Qin Zhen also ate Guanyin soil for a while, and then he really had no choice but to gnaw on the bark.

Fortunately, the small fishing village is close to the sea, so it will not be cannibalistic; Unfortunately, the village is separated from the sea by a mountain road for more than ten miles, and many people died on the road, being taken away by hungry wild beasts.

"Zhen'er, I've heard about your family, here are some thoughts, you can run away with your aunt!"

Li Han said as he stuffed a package to Qin Zhen.

It's not exactly a package, it's more like a few rags sewn up from grass, bulging inside, and a little soft.

"There are a few bundles of wild vegetables in it, and some dried fish, enough for you to eat on the road." Li Han's face was full of concern.

When Haikou entered the village, if it weren't for Qin Zhen's brother, Li Han's family would have died long ago.

Li Han has always remembered this kindness over the years.

Don't look at things simply, in a year of great disaster, these wild vegetables can save lives.

"If I don't run, if I run, I'll die."

Qin Zhen shook his head.

The soldiers are in chaos, and there are people and bandits everywhere, where can they go?

Li Han was anxious: "That's better than watching my aunt being dragged away by those officials who were stabbed by a thousand knives!" ”

Run, there is still a way to live.

If you are dragged away by the officials, you will definitely die.

Many people who could not afford to pay the high tax on their heads were forced to flee.

But it's so easy to escape?

Qin Zhen returned the package to Li Han and walked towards the mountains and forests without saying a word.

On the outskirts of the mountains and forests, there are many villagers who are digging in the fields.

At the beginning, the old village chief led people to cultivate the land around the village, and although there was not much income at that time, every family could still eat a full meal from time to time; However, as taxes increase year by year, the harvest of one year is not enough to pay taxes, and over time no one is willing to cultivate the land, and the land becomes barren.

If you don't plough the land, you have to live.

The old village chief led people to eat the mountains and the sea, hunting and fishing everywhere.

But in this world where even iron is a controlled item, there is no guy, and the difficulty of hunting can be imagined.

How difficult the world is, people are like mustard.

"Zhen'er, the sun is going down soon, and the woods are dangerous!"

Aunt Wang shouted.

"I'm going hunting."

Qin Zhen's explanation unsurprisingly sparked laughter from the villagers.

"Hunting? It's up to you? What do you rely on for hunting as a doll? ”

"Don't be caught by the blind bear!"

Even the most powerful hunters in the village dare not smear the mountains and forests, how can you be so bold with a doll?

Qin Zhen entered the mountains and forests regardless of it.

The gloomy shadow of the tree enveloped him in an instant.

He had gone into the woods a few times with the only hunter in the village, and knew how to protect himself and track down his prey.

He took his crossbow and hunched over the dense forest, and soon he came to the low-lying land that he had walked so many times.

Here he saw several large furry hares.

Qin Zhen reached for the pocket behind him, where several polished wooden arrows were stored, which was the only ammunition he had.

It is also the only way for him to catch these rabbits.

Waiting for the rabbit can only be a story, and there are no fools who can live in the ravines and ravines.

Draw the bow, mount the crossbow, aim, fire.

Coherent.

With a burst of air, the arrow was accurately driven into the hare's belly, and the latter fluttered in fright and died.

The instant hit gave Qin Zhen confidence, and he didn't step forward directly, but continued to lower his body and target the other hares.

After a few strikes, the hare fled in the wind.

Qin Zhen hurriedly stepped forward to check, and this time only three hares were caught.

These hares don't know what to eat and grow up, they all have fat heads and big ears, full stomachs, and seven or eight pounds! Qin Zhen was very happy to be able to harvest this harvest for the first time, he collected the wooden arrows and stored them, after all, this thing is quite laborious to make, and it can be reused if it can be reused.

After making sure that nothing was missing, he took the rabbit and walked in the direction of the village contentedly.

At this time, it was late at night, and there were many people at the entrance of the village.

Liu Juan stood at the front and stood up and looked into the woods, anxious and eager to pierce it.

"Why didn't you stop him when you saw Zhen'er?" The old village chief was so angry that he stomped his feet and scolded Aunt Wang and the others: "Such a young child, how can he let him enter the forest alone?" ”

Aunt Wang lowered her head aggrievedly and didn't dare to make a sound.

Wang Wu gloated and smiled: "It hasn't come out yet, eighty percent of it is dead!" ”

"Shut up!" Li Han glared: "If you talk nonsense, I'll beat you to death!" ”

"Li Hanzi, gave you face, right?" Wang Wu rolled up his cuffs and said provocatively: "Don't accept our two practices?" How about a losing kneel and call Dad? ”

"Come on!"

"Stop it!" The old village chief was mighty.

The old village chief is still very prestigious in the village, and as soon as he got angry, many people didn't dare to speak out, and his father hurriedly pulled Li Han away.

On the contrary, Wang Wu was still talking trash and didn't take the old village chief in his eyes at all.

Wang Wu's father, like Qin Zhen's brother, died in battle to protect the villagers when Haikou entered the village.

Therefore, he felt that the whole village owed him, and he was tyrannical and misbehaving in the village all day long.

Because of his father's love, everyone has always tolerated Wang Wu, who would have thought that this would have contributed to Wang Wu's idleness.

"Chen Shu, can I bother you to go to the forest to find it?" The old village chief looked at the only hunter in the village, and his words were full of pleading.

"Yes." Chen Shu did not hesitate, and was about to enter the forest to find someone with a bow on his back.

The old village chief hurriedly ordered a few strong young men and went with torches.

At that moment, I heard someone shouting.

"Isn't that town? Hey! This kid is back on his own! ”

I saw Qin Zhen walking out of the dense forest, looking at the big group at the entrance of the village with a puzzled expression, and asked, "What's wrong with you?" If you don't sleep at night, why don't you stay here and look at the stars? He looked up and muttered, "There are no stars tonight?" ”

Before the words fell, Liu Juan pounced on her, hugged Qin Zhen and cried.

"You have no conscience, why did you go to the woods? Scared the hell out of me! If something happens to you, how can I live......"

"That's it!"

The old village chief and others also surrounded him, scolding him with a head and a face.

"If something happens to you, how can we be worthy of your dead brother? Hunt and hunt! Your Uncle Chen didn't dare to go into the forest alone, was that what you could do? ”

Looking at the scolding villagers, Qin Zhen felt a warm current in his heart.

He proudly took out his prey and shook it in front of the villagers.

"Who says I can't shoot my prey?"
