Chapter 49 Concealment

One minute, two minutes...

Soon, a quarter of an hour passed, and there was still no movement at the hole beside the mound.

Fengyun frowned slightly, but his body still didn't move, and he continued to shoot at any time.

"Yes!"

Feng Yun's eyes suddenly lit up, and the mud ball blocking the hole suddenly moved.

Before that, he had been looking for gophers for a long time without any results, which forced him to start thinking.

Thinking about it, an idea broke into his mind.

If the hole dug by a gopher is like a house, then the holes left in the ground should be doors and windows.

If the hole is blocked, will they take action?

He couldn't think of a better way anyway, so he decided to give it a try.

It turned out that his idea was correct, and the gophers really couldn't ignore the blocked hole.

However, the mud ball at the entrance of the hole only moved for a while, and then there was no movement.

Fengyun is not in a hurry, he has already seen through the opponent's tricks.

With Bao's character, he would use the gopher as a task to assess him and Lei, which meant that the gopher should be special.

According to his understanding of rats, most of them are cunning and timid.

From this, he concluded that the mud ball moved first, and it should be a gopher making a test to see if there is any danger.

About five minutes later, the mud ball really moved again, and this time the range of movement was obviously much larger.

The mud ball is getting higher and higher, and has a tendency to be pushed out from the hole.

Feng Yun's eyes began to narrow slightly, his body also began to tense up, all functions were mobilized, and he was in a state of ready to go.

The black shadow flashed and jumped up from the hole.

Fengyun didn't take any action, he still stood quietly.

His eyesight was very good, and he had already seen clearly the true face of the black shadow. It was the mud ball that was pushed into the air by a strong force.

"How cunning."

Fengyun has a new understanding of the cunning of the gopher.

If it weren't for his very good eyesight, which allowed him to see the situation clearly, and the mud ball flew up suddenly, he might be fooled and attack subconsciously to reveal his whereabouts.

After a while, the dark hole suddenly had a variegated color, which was an inconspicuous grayish-yellow.

hum!

Accompanied by the sound of a bowstring vibrating, a black shadow appeared at the entrance of the cave, and plunged in fiercely.

"squeak……"

A short scream came from inside the cave, but it soon fell silent.

Fengyun walked to the entrance of the cave, grabbed the arrow with only the tail exposed, and lifted it up.

A grey-yellow figure was pulled out of the hole together with the arrow.

Feng Yun took a closer look and found that what hung on the arrow was a chubby animal, a little bigger than a rabbit, and it should be the gopher in the mouth.

But it doesn't look much like a mouse.

It has a flat and wide head, with two long and wide incisors protruding from its lips. There are also long and sharp claws at the end of its forelimbs. It can be seen at a glance that it is very good at digging holes. Maybe this is the origin of its name.

The arrow passed by its eyes, mortally wounding, killing it in an instant.

Pulling the prey out of the arrow shaft and weighing it, Fengyun showed a smile.

The size of the gopher does not seem very big, but there are some pressing hands, indicating that it should have a lot of meat.

If you hunt a few more, you should be able to have a full meal.

After thinking for a while, Fengyun dug a hole in the ground with arrows, pulled out some grass, wrapped the gophers, put them in together with the arrows, covered them with soil, and compacted them.

He buried his prey.

Then, he picked up soil, covered it on the blood from the gopher, and stepped on it firmly, being careful not to let his feet stick to the blood.

Finally, he picked up some dirt, rubbed it vigorously, and occasionally put his hand under his nose to smell it.

After a while, he showed a satisfied expression.

He did it out of sheer caution.

He is worried that the gophers have a very keen sense of smell, and if the gophers' scent remains on him, other gophers will smell it and avoid it in advance.

With a successful precedent, Fengyun decided to successfully replicate.

He ran, approaching the holes on the ground constantly, and blocked them one by one with mud balls.

In the end, he climbed up a small tree, stood on the top of the tree, condescending, and kept scanning the small tree as the center of his gaze.

His strategy paid off.

In the next half hour, he shot and killed three more gophers one after another.

I don't know if his luck ran out, or because of other reasons, after he finished shooting the fourth gopher, it has been almost an hour, and there is still no new harvest.

It wasn't that the gophers reacted so quickly that he didn't have time to take action, but that they never reappeared.

He thought for a while, hung the bow on his body, and jumped down from the tree.

He walked to the holes that were pressed by the mud balls one by one, poked some soil with his feet, stepped on them vigorously, and blocked the holes completely with the mud balls.

He dug out all four gophers, carried them, ran towards the mouth of the valley, jumped up the stone wall, and immediately found that Bao was lying on the grass not far from the stone wall, with a big leaf covering his head. .

As soon as Fengyun cast his gaze on him, Bao reacted and lifted the leaves off his face.

"Four. Good catch. Did you hunt it alone, or did you hunt it with Ray? I guess it was the two of you together. But it's not bad."

A satisfied smile was revealed.

Fengyun didn't speak, jumped off the stone wall and walked towards Bao.

"Where's Ray? Why didn't he come over?"

Seeing Fengyun alone, he showed a puzzled expression.

"Uncle Bao, something happened to Brother Lei and he didn't want to see me. I want you to persuade me."

"What's the matter? Why doesn't he want to see you?"

"This... I can't explain clearly at the moment, please ask Uncle Bao to ask Lei Ge face to face."

Bao took a deep look at Fengyun and stood up: "Okay. I'll go see Boy Lei."

Looking at the back figure who leapt up the stone wall, complex emotions appeared in Fengyun's eyes.

He didn't tell Bao the truth, nor did he think about telling him.

At the beginning, he planned to tell Lei the truth. It was the eyes of the snake god who helped him complete the unimaginable performance. Now he has calmed down and decided to hide this secret.

He wants to keep the secret of the Zombie Eye in his stomach, and use it as his trump card.

Unlike Tun, he would tell Wu about Tun, firstly it was difficult to hide and there was no need to hide it, and secondly telling the truth would bring him great benefits.

The Zombie Eye is another situation. It can become his trump card, which can not only save him from danger, but also help him kill powerful enemies.

Fengyun cut open the gopher's body with a bone knife, peeled off the skin, removed the internal organs, skewered them with sharpened branches, spread some seasoning and salt on them, lit a fire, and roasted them.

When the four gophers started to turn yellow and oil dripped down, Feng Yun saw a figure appearing on the stone wall from the corner of his eyes.

Looking back, Bao and Lei were standing on the top of the wall together, and Lei's arm was grabbed by Bao.

After a while, the two appeared in front of Fengyun, and it was only at this moment that Bao let go of Lei's arm.

Lei lowered his head, neither looking at Fengyun nor speaking.

"Boy Yun, you can do it. You surpassed Lei in less than half a day after learning archery. You really gave me a big surprise. Tell me the truth, how did you do it? Did you use some special ability? "

Bao looked Fengyun up and down, as if he was seeing him for the first time.

Lei's body trembled slightly, and he squinted his eyes to look at Fengyun secretly, with longing in his eyes.

He refused to listen to Fengyun's explanation at the beginning because he was hit too hard and was angry for a while, but now he is very eager to know the truth.

"Jiang is still old and hot, but Bao's eyesight is so sharp."

Feng Yun secretly admired Bao's judgment, but he didn't show it at all. He just said indifferently: "Uncle Bao, you are flattering me too much. What kind of special ability, you treat it like a pimple. Once you dig it, there will be a lot of it."

"It seems that I guessed wrong."

He scratched his scalp violently, showing a trace of embarrassment.

Ray's eyes dimmed again.

He didn't get the answers he wanted to know.

If Fengyun surpassed him in archery, it was because he used his special ability, the blow to him would be much smaller, at least he would have an excuse to comfort himself.

"Boy Yun, how did you surpass Boy Lei in archery without using your special ability? I want to break my head, but I can't figure it out."

Riot never gave up on the search for answers.

"Uncle Bao, I'm sorry, I don't know the reason."

"You don't know the reason yourself? It's impossible, right? How did you shoot the branch? Could it be that you closed your eyes and shot randomly, but you hit all ten arrows? Haha..."

Bao also seemed to feel that what he said was absurd, so he couldn't help laughing.

"Of course I didn't shoot randomly with my eyes closed. I aimed very carefully. As for how I hit the target, I don't know exactly, but I had a special feeling before I shot the arrow."

"A special feeling? What is it?"

Bao's eyes lit up, and Lei also raised his head, looking at Fengyun.

"I don't know if it's an illusion, but a voice somewhere told me that it's time to shoot the arrow, so I shot it, and it actually hit the target. Uncle Bao, do you think it's strange?"

This is Fengyun's excuse.

He wasn't worried that his lie would be exposed.

Through the understanding during this period of time, coupled with the inherited memory of the original owner of the body, he already has knowledge of many situations.

In this primitive society that was seriously inconsistent with his memory, all kinds of situations emerged one after another, and it was impossible for a knowledgeable person to explain them all clearly.

"This... I can't say clearly about this, but based on my experience, it should be that you have some kind of special talent in archery."

Bao really didn't have the ability to dismantle Fengyun's lie, on the contrary, he also gave his own explanation to help Fengyun's lie in a disguised form.

"Boy Yun, your talent in archery is very strong, you must practice hard, and you must not waste such a good talent."

"Uncle Bao, don't worry. If you don't tell me, I will work hard. I still want to become a real sharpshooter."

"Ambition. I've only heard of a master archer, but I've never seen it with my own eyes. If you really become a master archer, it can be regarded as fulfilling my long-cherished wish."
