Chapter 9 9 Rejection
Chapter 9 9. Rejection
Li Yuan walked to the outskirts of Xiaomo Mountain with ease, and the "5~6" floating beside him also gave him some confidence.
Although he couldn't get the skills for the time being, he was not so anxious. Everything was mainly about staying alive and staying away from danger.
If you can get the skills, then ask for them. If you can't get them, then wait. If you rashly look for skills like a headless fly, will one really fall from the sky?
If you don't have the skills, then fill up "archery" and "tracking" first.
If you can hunt well, you can also fill your stomach first. If you have extra money, you can find a way to move to a safer residential area.
After a while, he came to the mountain spring outside and took a look.
There was no prey, but there were three men sitting together, seemingly chatting about something, and three dogs were tied to the wooden stakes beside the three men.
These three men were the "Hunter Alliance" in Xiaomofang, the three people that Qian San had originally planned to deal with but had not yet had time to deal with.
One of them was sharp-eyed and saw someone in the woods. He took another look and vaguely recognized his appearance, so he shouted, "Is it Yuanzi?"
Li Yuan walked out.
The man saw his appearance clearly and grinned friendly, "Yuanzi, why didn't you tell us that you recovered from your injury?"
Li Yuan also smiled and said, "Brother Xiong, I just recovered from my injuries and came to the mountain for a walk."
He glanced at the three people.
The man who spoke was not tall, but he was very strong and wrapped in a black leather coat.
He made this leather coat with the skin of a black bear.
Of course, the black bear was also hunted by him.
This achievement made Qian San dare not provoke him easily, and some people in the village called him "Brother Xiong". After calling him, the name was not important.
The numbers on Brother Xiong's side were "3~4", and the dog behind him was "1~2". If Brother Xiong led the dog, it should be "4~6". It's no wonder that Qian San was afraid of him.
The two people around Brother Xiong, one is a tall man with a young face named Zhang Nuliu, he is a new hunter, his father retired, and he has just started hunting for a short time; the other one has pockmarks on his face named Zhang Chuliu, who is also known as "Zhang Mazi" on weekdays.
The number of their dogs is "1~2", and their own strength is also "1~2". It seems that they are of the same level as Li Yuan before, and they can only hang around the periphery of Xiaomo Mountain.
But what is better than Li Yuan is that Li Yuan's dog died, but theirs is still alive.
Brother Xiong patted Li Yuan's shoulders with both hands and praised: "Strong! It seems that Madam Yan has hidden a lot of meat on weekdays. This is waiting for you to get injured, and then she will take it out to replenish you."
After that, he laughed and said: "My wife is like this too, she won't take it out unless I'm injured, haha."
Next to him, Zhang Nuli said: "Brother Yuanzi, come with us!"
Brother Xiong raised his hand, and Zhang Nuli stopped talking immediately.
Brother Xiong hooked his arm around Li Yuan's shoulder and said earnestly, "Brother, Qian San wanted to mess with us. Fortunately, Monk Pan found out, otherwise we would be in trouble.
But Qian San is dead, and there might be new people who want to mess with us, Qian Er is one of them.
Even if Qian Er is gone, there must be someone who is greedy for us hunters.
Those little rascals only stare at the meat we hunt. Let these bastards go hunting by themselves, will they?"
Brother Xiong cursed, and then said, "Brother, we have to get together. There is strength in numbers, and we will not be afraid of anyone at that time. How about we four brothers share the hunted meat equally?"
Li Yuan hesitated.
Zhang Nuli said: "Brother Yuanzi, Brother Xiong is so good at hunting. We can share the meat with him. Brother Xiong is taking care of us!"
Zhang Mazi next to him advised: "Yuanzi, let's go together! The four of us brothers drink and eat meat, and we will deal with those ruffians if they make trouble!
Yesterday, Xiaofei dared to act arrogantly in front of us. Brother Xiong is so confused that he doesn't even know his mother. What can he do?
Now there are disasters everywhere and the world is in chaos. The four of us brothers will surely create a career together. When the time comes, we will share happiness and difficulties."
Originally, Li Yuan was a little tempted.
After all, if you are in a small group, you won't be so conspicuous.
But after hearing what Zhang Mazi said, and seeing the restless enthusiasm and enterprising spirit in the eyes of the three people, he immediately made a decision.
"Brother Xiong, I'm very happy that you can find a brother.
But I don't have any big ambitions. I just want to hunt and live a simple life. I don't fight with others, and I just want a wife and children to live on."
"We are the same, hahaha!" Brother Xiong had some suspicion in his eyes, but he still laughed.
Li Yuan said: "Thank you very much, Brother Xiong. If there is nothing else, I will look around."
Zhang Mazi frowned and raised his head and shouted: "Yuanzi, what's wrong with you?"
Brother Xiong waved his hand and said: "Okay, Yuanzi, we are different from Qian San. We really want to be friends and brothers. It's okay if you don't understand now. Come to me anytime when you understand."
"Thank you, Brother Xiong." Li Yuan smiled again, then turned and walked away.
Seeing the man walking away, Zhang Mazi started to curse, saying: "This Yuanzi is ungrateful."
Brother Xiong said: "Don't say anything, he is quite polite, but he seems to be afraid of being chased by the wild boar and has lost his courage. When he can't hunt, he will naturally come back to find us."
Zhang Mazi laughed.
Zhang Nuli beside him also laughed.
Brother Xiong said: "Don't worry about him, then the three of us will go to Erchong Mountain today to take a look."
Zhang Mazi patted his butt, stood up and said: "I will listen to Brother Xiong."
The three of them led the dog and went deeper into the mountain.
Li Yuan watched the three of them enter the second mountain, and then he quietly followed them into the mountain pass.
After entering, he hid behind an old tree, and saw that the three of them entered a canyon, so he went around to another direction.
At this time, the role of advanced tracking came into play.
He was able to better use the surrounding environment to restrain his breath, and he could also move more lightly and quietly, like a beast ready to hunt, tiptoeing to get closer from a distance.
Behind the second mountain, the situation outside Xiaomo Mountain was indeed different. After a while, Li Yuan saw a wild boar.
The wild boar was digging the ground, and I don’t know what it was doing, and the number "3~4" was floating above its head.
Li Yuan gently pulled out an arrow from the quiver, hesitated for a moment, and then dropped it again.
It would be too conspicuous to go back after hitting such a big wild boar.
Let’s see if there are any smaller prey.
He retreated quietly, and the wild boar didn’t even notice him.
Going around the wild boar, Li Yuan started to walk to the other side.
After walking for most of the day, he still didn't see any prey. The forest was like a maze, and everything looked the same.
Li Yuan immediately started talking about the benefits of hunting dogs.
If he could raise a good dog, he would save a lot of trouble.
This dog has a very sharp nose. Once it smells something, it can follow the smell to find prey, which is much more efficient than him wandering around.
Just as he was thinking, he suddenly paused, and saw a pheasant walking in the bushes of the forest not far away.
The pheasant walked and looked around vigilantly, pressing the dead wood on the ground with its claws, making a "clicking" sound, and "0~1" was floating above its head.
The pheasant looked left and right.
The bushes just covered its body.
But for Li Yuan, the "0~1" floating above the pheasant's head was too conspicuous.
He quickly took out a smooth stone.
After walking for a while, the pheasant suddenly felt a crisis, and hurriedly turned his head to look, but saw a cold light "brush" shooting at him.
Dro! ! !
The stone hit the pheasant's head, cracking its skull and causing it to fall down.
Li Yuan quickly walked over, grabbed the pheasant and stuffed it into the sack he had prepared, then quickly returned.
