Volume 1: The Seven Stars of the Twilight of the World Chapter 5 The Purple Feather Skylark

There are many beasts in Tiger Ridge, and even an extraordinary hunter like Geng Er will definitely not break through alone. It's just that this time Geng Er wanted to show his hands in front of this brother before Xiang Bei left, so he only took Xiang Bei, and the two brothers depended on each other.

Of course, Geng Er was not a fool, he deliberately avoided the most dangerous areas and went to the more familiar areas to hunt.

The beautiful mountains and rivers along the way are refreshing, which makes Xiang Bei, who is about to die, rarely relax. In the past ten years, Xiang Bei has only done one thing, revenge.

He originally wanted to get rid of the three-armed Yama and go to the eldest grandson's family to take revenge, but the eldest grandson's family was far away in the north, and his limit had already come, so he thought about finding a beautiful place to die, which was not in vain.

The two brothers didn't talk about parting, they just enjoyed the beautiful scenery all the way, jokingly chatting and relieving their boredom.

"Second brother, I think Sister Xiu'er likes you very much. When you went into the mountains to hunt, she often came to inquire about you. ”

At the mention of Xiu'er, Geng Er, a rugged man, turned red.

It's not that he doesn't like Xiu'er, it's just that Xiu'er's village chief father looks down on Geng Er, who is surrounded by four walls, and the man's self-esteem can't allow him to wag his tail and beg for mercy in front of the village chief.

Geng Er rarely lied and comforted himself, "Where can your sister Xiu'er look at me, she just wants me to help her find a few purple lark feathers." ”

"Purple lark?"

"Yes, it is said that some people in the back mountains have seen this kind of bird. A purple-red feather is very rare. Your sister Xiu'er's favorite thing is the purple ......."

"You even know her favorite color, do you?"

"So what......" Geng Er suddenly stopped talking, wanting to change the subject.

How can a hunter who can only hunt for a living be worthy of the village chief's naturally beautiful Chunxiu. This Xiu'er is indeed a lady in the show, and the village is worried about her offspring, but she doesn't think she is worthy of her. If anyone dares to show his thoughts to Xiu'er, the village chief can pick up a firewood knife and chop him into a sugarcane stalk.

"Xiu'er, don't worry, Dad has asked a friend outside the mountain to pay attention to a good family for you. At that time, the beautiful eight-lift sedan chair will marry you over. ”

"Dad, who said I wanted to marry outside the mountains. I'm going to stay in the village and watch over you for the rest of my life. ”

"Nonsense, how can Dad watch you, a golden phoenix, trapped in the chicken nest in this mountain for a lifetime!"

said this, but was beaten on the shoulder by Xiu'er's pink little fist, the village chief's eyes closed, and his face suddenly showed an intoxicated look.

The village chief knew that the chaotic times outside the mountain were rampant, and he didn't want Xiu'er to live a hard life in the village, but he was also afraid that the world outside the mountain would be sinister and could not protect Xiu'er, so he was very entangled.

Xiang Beiren is a big ghost, although he has only been in Sandao Village for half a year. Except for a cunning opponent like the three-armed Yama, the thoughts of the other villagers have long been seen through by him.

"I can see that Sister Xiu'er is sincere to you. Second brother, don't let her down. After hesitating for a moment, Xiang Bei continued, "I still have a bit of a family business at home, go back and buy some cattle and horses, and come back, second brother, you can welcome Sister Xiu'er into the door." ”

Who knew that Geng Ertou shook like a rattle, and he didn't want to accept Xiang Bei's kindness. Seeing that he couldn't say that Geng Er could not move, Xiang Bei had no choice but to give up.

Before they knew it, the two of them had entered the depths of the inaccessible mountains. The original sheep intestine path completely disappeared under the cover of wild grass and shrubs. Looking at the dense vegetation around them, most of them are no longer named, and there are many branches with sharp spikes that leave scratches on the two of them from time to time.

Geng Er walked in front of Xiang Bei with a machete in his hand, on the one hand, it was convenient to lead the way, and on the other hand, he was kind enough to protect this brother behind him, and cut off the branches that blocked the road for him as much as possible.

Xiang Bei looked at the tall figure with bronze skin in front of him, and suddenly his nose was sore, and he felt a trace of nostalgia for this world.

Tiger Ridge is indeed lush with vegetation and a variety of birds and beasts, and after most of the day's work, Geng Er actually caught two hares, which can be regarded as a full harvest.

"It's a pity that I lost a boar, if only I could catch that boar, and marinate two hams for Chunxiu, it's enough to eat for a winter. Geng Er couldn't help but mention Chunxiu again, looking at Xiang Bei's smiling expression on the side, his old face turned red, "Let's spend the night in the mountains tonight, let you see the night scene in the mountains, brother." So saying, he went to the river to kill rabbits and barbecue meat.

At this time, it is the weather of the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the mountain breeze at night is slightly cool, and the cool moon at the beginning of the year is more and more transparent like jade. Geng Er is a qualified hunter, the roasted rabbit meat is fragrant and oily, and the two brothers have a full stomach and a round waist.

Finally, before the sunset, Geng Er chose an old tree with lush foliage, and built a large and comfortable bed between the branches with branches and animal skins.

"Brother, this time let you experience the benefits of our Orion, sleeping in such a bed is comfortable and safe. ”

Seven Kills Xiang Bei, when chasing and killing all kinds of good players, it is also common to sleep in the open, but looking at this big bed built on a tree is still a little amazing. Geng Er obviously enjoyed it even more, and after a while, he snored beside Xiang Bei.

Without the pressure of hunting and being killed, Xiang Bei listened to the whispers of birds and beasts in all directions, and his eyes gradually blurred. Perhaps this world will only become better without human beings who claim to be the spirits of all things. Or perhaps, in the next life, you can be reincarnated as a carefree little beast, and feel the flowers blooming and falling, and the years are silent.

While he was thinking wildly, suddenly, two strange birdsong sounds attracted Xiang Bei's attention. Chirp, chirp, on a branch not far away, a bird with slender tail feathers is singing to the moonlight in the middle of the sky.

"Second brother" Xiang Bei lowered his voice, shook Geng Er in his sleep, saw Geng Er sit up in a daze, and quickly covered his mouth.

"Second brother, look, that little bird. ”

Geng Er woke up, rubbed his eyes, looked in the direction of Xiang Bei's finger, and then rubbed his eyes again, facing the bright moonlight, the outline of the bird on the branch gradually became clear, in addition to the slender tail feathers, what made Geng Er even more excited was that the bird reflected a purple halo around it.

The two looked at each other, and invariably chanted silently, "Purple Skylark!"

After the surprise, Geng Er became worried. He is a master of brute force to hunt wild beasts, and the weapon he carries with him is a double-ended iron fork. He didn't know how to shoot arrows with a bow, and he had to rely on a rope net laid in advance to keep the rabbit in order.

Seeing Geng Er go over the rope net he was carrying, Xiang Bei was anxious for him, how could he have a chance to catch the purple lark? He was not worried about how to catch the purple lark, but he was hesitating whether to shoot down the bird directly with a flying stone or catch it alive. Anyway, there is no need to hide his skills in front of Geng Er, if he can catch this alien bird alive, I am afraid that it will be more than a few purple feathers to touch Sister Xiu'er's heart.

The honest Geng Er flipped out of the rope net and was about to throw it at the purple lark. Although he also understood that there was little hope of succeeding in doing so, he could only try his luck and didn't want to be pulled by Xiang Bei on the side. Just when he was wondering and wanted to turn his head and ask for an explanation, Xiang Bei was already like a night owl silently rising up along the branches.

Geng Er had never seen light skills, and his jaw almost fell off in shock. Could it be that he was dreaming, he pinched his thigh, hiss, it hurt.

I saw that Xiang Bei's body shot out seemed to be flying and jumping, and every time he took off, he could advance a few feet, and it just happened to land on another branch, and these branches were all soft and slender tips, bent like a full bowstring under the pressure of Xiang Bei's body, and then popped out with full strength, Xiang Bei's seemingly weak body took advantage of the situation and vacated again.

The purple lark is also a cautious bird, and when it began to pop out of its body from Xiang Bei, it had already suppressed its chirping, but the bird's natural curiosity made it not run away for the time being, but was curious to see the figure that was jumping back and forth on the branches.

Finally, the purple lark realized that this danger was coming at him, and spread his wings to make a dive, turning away from Xiang Bei's attack and escaping.

"It's over!" Geng Er, who had never dared to come out of the atmosphere, chuckled in his heart. I was still surprised by Xiang Bei's skills before, but now when I saw the frightened purple lark, I was suddenly deflated.

Xiang Bei had already expected the skylark's movements, and at the moment when it spread its wings and took off, a stone that had been prepared in his hand in advance flew out, but it was not shot at the lark, but at the branch held at the lark's feet.

With a click, the branches snapped, and the lark spread its wings but flipped and fell down the tree.

The sky is high for the birds to fly, but if the birds want to take off, they have to rely on the bounce on their feet to help their bodies take off, plus this purple lark has a slender tail feather body, and the take-off is slightly clumsy, and the branches on the feet are suddenly unloaded, even if it instigates its wings, it still goes to the ground.

Geng Er in the back didn't understand, and thought that his little brother could not only fly, but also what spells, so he made this lark lose his mind, and hurriedly used his hand to support the chin that fell down again.

When the lark fell, Xiang Bei finally arrived closer, he stretched out his hand to support the lark's falling body, but at this time, there was no branch under his body that could be borrowed, and he fell to the ground with his big head down.

Geng Er's heart chuckled again, and blurted out, "Brother be careful!"

Xiang Bei didn't panic, he just took the time to pay attention to the lark in his hand, straightened its feathers, and fluttered in the wind like a feather, flipping and standing firmly on the ground.

Gaba, Geng Er's jaw finally fell.

"Brother, where are you going to fly?" Geng Er didn't have time to take the lark that Xiang Bei brought back, but he asked such a sentence stupidly.

Xiang Bei had no intention of showing off, just focusing on the exquisite purple lark in his hand, "Second brother, its feathers are really purple." ”

"Brother, do you know how to spell, why doesn't it fly when it sees you?"

"Second brother, Sister Xiu'er will definitely like this lark. ”

"Brother, you fly another one for me to see. ”

......

The two of them each carried their own excitement, and after a long time of talking and communicating with the duck, Geng Ercai finally came back from his surprise, looked at the purple lark with a gorgeous purple feather, and exclaimed, "Chunxiu will definitely like it." ”
