The next day, the snow was still falling, but the momentum was much smaller, and it was not until the third day that the snow stopped, and the sun was shining brightly, and the white patch outside the door was dazzling white as far as the eye could see. The man of the Ling family pushed open the door, walked out, and went outside to clean up with everyone.

The scale of Linbian Village is not large, about 100 people, the east of the village shouts, the west of the village can be heard, the folk customs are simple, and the texture is pure. People don't have any secrets in their hearts, and they just talk about the prey in the forest, what kind of tools are good for plowing the fields, and even who has a few puppies and hens that hatch a few eggs, and people can discuss for a long time.

At this time, the men of the village were working together to clean the whole village, from beginning to end, instead of everyone sweeping the door by themselves, and after a morning's work, the snow was shoveled away, and then poured into the ditch behind the village, and the village had already revealed its previous appearance. Although it was cold, everyone's face was red and hot from their noses and mouth.

After cleaning the village, the Ling family went home to get a hunting fork, and was about to go to the blacksmith at the head of the village to get some fine iron to make up for it, but before he went out, the village chief came over.

"Brother Ling, go, go to my place at noon to eat and drink, many brothers have come, the day before yesterday was patronizing and happy, there was something I forgot to ask, our brothers chatted while eating." ”

"Okay, I'll pack it up and go over right away. The man brought Aunt Zhao next door over and arranged for dinner at his own house, so that he could take care of his big-bellied mother-in-law, and then went straight to the village chief's house.

At noon, the fire was burning, the village chief's house, the smell of wine was scattered, a house full of strong men, and Dr. Xu also came.

"Brother Ling, I didn't ask you when I patronized and chatted that day, where did you catch that roe deer in the forest?

"Do the brothers know about the 'Eagle's Beak Cliff'?" the Ling family man picked up the wine bowl and raised his head to dry himself.

"You know...... It's ten miles to the east, it's not too high, but it's quite steep...", a man said, and everyone agreed.

"Then the brothers below the 'Eagle's Beak Cliff' haven't been there," everyone shook their heads, indicating that they hadn't been there.

"I caught it at the bottom of the cliff, and it can't be said that it was caught, but I met it, and the man of the Ling family took the wine jug and poured another bowl.

"There is a pool under the cliff, and it is frozen, because the cliff is blocked, and there is not much snow on the pond, and I see that there are a few fish frozen in the ice in the pool, and I plan to get it out and chisel the ice with a fork, but a fork is pestle on the stone, and the fork head is crooked. So I didn't chisel anymore, so I caught this guy, and it took a lot of effort to catch it, but I couldn't climb up the cliff, and I still came back from a long detour......" said the Ling family man.

At this time, Doctor Xu spoke, "Brother Ling, this kind of roe deer is generally a male and a female, and the two are generally not far away, the male is caught, and the female must be nearby." If they are caught, then the brothers and sisters in the village will be able to survive this winter, this time everyone will go to the place you said together, and I asked the village chief to call everyone here to discuss this matter, what do you think, brothers?"

Everyone agreed without thinking about it, and they were all eager to try. Whether they can hunt it or not, they want to go.

"Brother Ling, you caught it yourself last time, don't go this time, and look at your sister-in-law's appearance, I'm afraid it's just a few days, you will stay at home with your sister-in-law, and I'll go with my brothers." Dr. Xu said.

"It's okay, I know the road, it's convenient to take everyone with me, I let Aunt Zhao go over at home, and there are so many sisters-in-law in the village to take care of it, so I don't need to worry about it. The Ling family man said.

When they heard this, they thought it was reasonable, so they said no more, and after discussing it together, they decided to set out the next morning.

When the Ling family returned home, they saw Aunt Zhao and her mother-in-law sitting on the kang chatting, chatting very lively, Aunt Zhao looked at her mother-in-law's stomach with kindness, and the Ling family man had an idea.

"Aunt Zhao, live in my house in the future, I just sleep in the outhouse, my brother can't come back from being a soldier all the year round, Aunt Zhao, you are bored and panicked by yourself, my father and mother are not early, I recognize you as a godmother, and I will serve you as a mother in the future, first, there is something to take care of, and my brother can rest assured when he is a soldier outside; second, my mother-in-law has a companion, and I don't always hang up when I go out hunting; third, after I have a baby, then I will have a grandmother to ...... pain."

"Aunt Zhao, come here, as long as you don't dislike this narrow place. The mother-in-law was very happy when she heard it, and she also helped.

"Hmm... You don't like my old arms and legs... Then I'll move over, it's really an eye-opener, and it took me a lifetime to accumulate virtue so that I met the two of you" Aunt Zhao's eyes flashed with tears.

"Huzi, I don't think you're narrow here, but after adding a baby, it won't be able to make a fuss, if you don't think my house is broken, it will be opened to make a partial house in the future. "Aunt Zhao said that the name of the Ling family is Ling Hu.

"That's better, I'll open it as soon as spring begins, godmother, we'll be a family in the future." Ling Hu was honest and had already changed his words, and his mother-in-law also shouted.

"Huh. Aunt Zhao replied, wiping her tears with her sleeve.

Aunt Zhao went back to pack some things, and moved over after a while, Ling Hu wanted to help, but Aunt Zhao didn't let her go, saying that there was only a little.

"Mother-in-law, tomorrow I will go out hunting with the others, saying that there is still a roe deer a few days ago, where did you put the bow left by Daddy? Ling Hu asked

"Didn't you put it on the top of the cupboard in the firewood room, saying that you panicked when you saw this bow, and you were afraid that it would scare the baby in your belly," said the village woman.

"Hey...... I forgot," the man laughed.

The village woman then said: "Man, you have to be careful, in case something terrible escapes, don't be reckless, your donkey temper comes up, no one can pull it back, and if you add a baby in the future, you have to think about it for our mother, remember the last ......."

"Okay, okay, got it. The man's head buzzed. Ran to the firewood cupboard and took down a long baggage, and then returned to the main room, opening layer by layer, a bow made of bone.

This bow is a time when the ancestors of the Ling family were hunting outside, and they strayed into a deep place in the mountains and forests, and happened to see a very small dragon corpse, so after peeling the skin, they took a bow made of dragon backbone and dragon tendons.

The bow back is the spine of the whole dragon, the claws are removed, the head of the dragon is above, the tail of the dragon is below, the bowstring is made of dragon tendons, the color of the whole bow is pale, the shape is more strange, the dragon spine on the back of the bow is raised one by one, much like a centipede bent its body. But the overall look is majestic, the ancestor feels good-looking, but the strength of the arrow is mediocre, not very useful, not even as good as an ordinary wooden bow, once hunting, the ancestor was scratched by thorns, accidentally dripped blood on the bow a little, and suddenly the energy was pervasive, and there was a light flashing in the dragon's head. The ancestor took out and shot an arrow at the prey, and the arrow rolled away, and the whole prey was blasted into slag. At this point, the bow and arrow have been passed down from generation to generation as a treasure, and if it is to exert its power, it must be sacrificed with blood, and it is the blood of the Ling family. The ancestors of the Ling family had little culture, and named it "Bone Bow", which has been passed down from generation to generation as a family heirloom.

After a while, Aunt Zhao moved over with her things, Ling Hu and her mother-in-law greeted them into the house cordially, and after the arrangements were made, the family prepared dinner together, and they were happy.

Early the next morning, everyone gathered at the entrance of the forest, and Dr. Xu gave each person a blood mushroom the size of half a fingernail.

Ling Hu deliberately brought a lot of bows and arrows, and everyone also took hunting forks, firewood knives, bows and arrows and other utensils, and after checking them out, they entered the forest.
