Chapter 192 Bear Hunting

Sun Hongye was silent.

He Lingchuan said again:

"It's been three days, and I don't think General Ke will send anyone to look for you later."

More than two days have passed since Sun Hongye was injured at the foot of Lumingyuan Mountain, and Ke Jihai has not sent anyone to express condolences.

It can be seen that General Ke didn't take this little commoner seriously at all.

He Lingchuan didn't mind that he was his second best choice: "Looking at the domestic situation, if a man wants to make contributions, he will go north if he doesn't want to go west."

Sun Hongye looked at He Lingchuan carefully: "The eldest son's behavior is inconsistent with the legend."

"Legends are all based on rumors. If you believe it, you are stupid." He Lingchuan stood up, "I just want to ask you, are you coming?"

"Come!" Sun Hongye said simply this time, bowing to He Lingchuan until the end, "Greetings to the Lord! From now on, Sun is willing to follow you and do the work of dogs and horses."

"Okay, okay!" He Lingchuan was overjoyed and helped him up and said, "I finally have my first staff member!"

Assistant Liu behind him handed Sun Hongye the package that had been prepared long ago. He Lingchuan waved his hand: "Time waits for no one, hurry up and put it on."

Sun Hongye entered the house and opened the package. Inside were three sets of brand new clothes, a pair of thick boots, and several ingots of gold and silver totaling fifty taels.

This boss is really generous with his actions. The money came first before he even put any effort into it.

When Sun Hongye put on new clothes and boots and walked out, He Lingchuan said with his hands: "As expected, people need clothes. Come on, put on this cloak and walk around the streets. I'm sure you can seduce a few big girls to follow you to Xiazhou."

This cloak has silk embroidery on the outside and soft chinchilla fur on the inside. It doesn't look cheap at first glance. Sun Hongye knew that he spent a lot of money as a courtesy, so she accepted it calmly and boarded the car together.

After returning to the inn, He Lingchuan learned that He Chunhua had another guest come to his door temporarily.

But it was Zhu Xiyan and Zhu Xiuer who came to say goodbye.

Zhu Xiyan talked freely with He Chunhua and his wife. When Zhu Xiuer saw He Lingchuan, he handed over a peace charm and said, "I embroidered this with my own hands. It contains the dilong incense given by the emperor, which is colorless and odorless. But if you wear it on your body, mosquitoes and poisonous snakes will not dare to come near it. It is effective." It can last for sixteen or seventeen months. I wish you a safe trip and a good journey."

This is so good, I won’t be afraid of being bitten by mosquitoes when I go to the mountains and forests. He Lingchuan took it with a smile and immediately put it on his waist, praising her for her outstanding craftsmanship.

It was only in front of him that Zhu Xiuer smiled without any defense.

He Lingchuan looked at Zhu Xiyan who was not far away: "How have you been staying at the Zhu family these days?"

"It's been a long time since I've been home, which will inevitably cause some troubles." Zhu Xiuer reached out and stroked her hair, "But my grandfather loves me more than before. As long as he is here, I will be safe."

"In a few days, my grandfather will still want to find a marriage for me."

He Lingchuan looked at her carefully. Zhu Xiuer looked radiant, finally showing the vitality and brightness that a woman in her early twenties should have.

The past events at Fairy Lake seem to have been buried by her along with time.

She solemnly said to He Lingchuan: "The He family has feelings for me, but you are the real life-saving grace to me. If I can help you in the future, you must give me this opportunity!"

He Lingchuan nodded.

At this time, He Chunhua also walked over, said hello to Zhu Xiuer with a smile, and then lowered his voice: "Someone from the Zhu family is asking about your past, wanting to know what happened to you after you were abducted, and even asked people in my team coming."

Zhu Xiuer's smile remained unchanged: "Master He, don't you happen to know who that person is?"

He Chunhua whispered his name.

"As expected." Zhu Xiuer chuckled, "I also found some clues. The traffickers who captured me did not choose their targets randomly."

There was a cold light hidden deep in her beautiful eyes.

The seven or eight years of long-term destruction either turned people into sheep or into wolves.

He Chunhua nodded: "We have to go, you have to be careful."

Zhu Xiuer saluted him, "Thank you, Mr. He! I will be careful."

He Lingchuan thought to himself that it was not Zhu Xiuer who should be careful from now on.

Old memories were recounted and gifts were given. Zhu Xiuer said goodbye to the He family, and then helped Zhu Xiyan get into the carriage.

She smiled and waved to the He brothers, lowered the curtains, and the carriage started slowly.

He Chunhua turned to his wife and children: "It's time for us to leave."

The luggage was packed and the carriage was ready.

When Mrs. Ying and He Yue went to take the bus, He Chunhua asked He Lingchuan: "Could the young man you brought into the inn be the reading companion of the He family?"

He Lingchuan grinned: "I think he is talented, and I want to read some books again. He is now my reading companion."

He Chunhua was startled: "He wants to come with us?"

"Yes, his salary will be deducted from me." Isn't it just to recruit someone? He expected that He Chunhua would not object. A young official like him would not be able to show his identity unless he was surrounded by seven or eight followers.

"You've already hired a monkey." Adding a big living person is expensive.

"All my followers are staying in Blackwater City, and there is no one around me." He Lingchuan said with a shy face, "So, are you going to go to my mother's place to help me get some more monthly quota?"

"..."

"For the sake of me narrowly surviving the night before yesterday, and now I'm still in trouble?"

He Chunhua's face twitched.

If it weren't for the eldest son, how could the whole family survive Dong Rui's surprise attack? If he were not the eldest son, how would he have the chance to meet Tianyan during his trip to Shi Huan?

Speaking of which, this son has really changed a lot since the Sun Fuping incident. Now he not only practices martial arts diligently, but also wants to study hard and make contributions.

He stared at He Lingchuan with a complicated look. He didn't say slowly until the latter started to feel uneasy.

"Okay."

He Lingchuan quickly changed the subject: "By the way, how is the recruitment order?"

"Very good, it has only been posted for three days, and more than 360 people have come to interview. It can be seen that there are many people who are frustrated." He and Mo Zhe Jingxuan and others almost didn't even have time to eat and change clothes. "After consideration, I kept 19 people. They will follow the support army to the north, and then serve as government officials to help me assist in military and political affairs."

"Nineteen people, so many!" He Lingchuan was slightly surprised, "I thought my father had high standards."

"It's easier to eliminate people when there are more people." He Chunhua patted his son on the shoulder, "Now we can only listen to what they say, and then we can observe their politics and behavior."

Now recruiting people can only be done on paper. When we get to the state government and get hands-on, we will know who is talented and who is useless.

"Although there is no set rules, I will also send people to inquire about the backgrounds and identities of these 19 people." He Chunhua smiled, "When we arrive in Dunyu, this information will arrive soon."

Gentle breeze, warm sun, golden fields.

The autumn tiger on the Chiba Plateau has gone, and there is a cool breeze in the fields.

It is the busy farming season, and there is no one in the huge sorghum field, leaving only tall plants swaying in the wind.

Soon, there was a rustling sound in the field, and the sorghum also shook violently, from far to near.

A figure rushed out, looking as if his feet were not touching the ground, but in fact, his running footsteps kicked up large lumps of mud on the ground.

He had to hurry, because a huge figure also rushed out of the sorghum field with a swish.

It was chasing him closely behind.

This was a huge brown bear, at least twice as big as its peers. If a person stood up, his height should be more than 15 feet, and a palm would be as big as a millstone.

It was originally sleek and smooth, and when it ran, the mountains shook and the earth shook. Its fur swayed in waves, showing how fat it was. However, now there were two feather arrows and a long spear stuck on the back and back of the bear, and several javelins stuck on its shoulders. Blood flowed down its hair and onto the ground.

It was aroused by the pain and chased the human in front of it desperately.

Although bears don't like to run long distances, they are faster than horses in short sprints. Especially for a bear of this size, one step when running is at least equivalent to four or five steps of a human.

The unlucky guy running in front of it was skinny and small, as fast as an antelope, and very agile. He escaped from the bear's paw several times.

Fortunately, he knew how to move and dodge. If he ran in a straight line, he would have been caught up by the bear.

Even so, he was in danger.

When the giant bear was about to get behind him, it stretched out its paw to grab him, intending to use its more than five-inch long gray nails to disembowel him.

If it missed, it would hold the paw and pull it back, and a strong wind would appear in front of the thin man, pulling him back.

This brown bear actually has the talent to summon the wind.

The thin man dodged another fatal attack, shouting: "Hit me, I can't hold on any longer!"

As soon as the voice fell, two feather arrows whizzed out of the forest, one hitting the bear's waist and the other hitting its ribs.

The giant bear roared in pain, but it was determined not to let go, and it only wanted to chase the man in front of it. It pounced forward so hard, and with a sweep of its front paws, it finally swept the thin man!

He was hit like a ball and flew out, hitting a big tree hard before stopping. At the same time, a yellow light flashed on his body, and a piece of amulet on his waist broke.

The man was dizzy and dazed, and heard his companion shouting "Be careful" in his ears. When he looked closely, the giant bear had already pounced on him, and he could almost smell the fishy smell from the bottom of the other's throat!

It was too late to run out, so the thin man did not think twice and turned over to climb up the tree.

The giant bear was also angry after it missed, and it also followed the tree with a slump, and the foam from the corner of its mouth was yellow and green.

The tree was tall, with a trunk that was as thick as five or six people hugging, and the branches were complicated and winding. The giant bear could not avoid the branches, so it simply raised its head and rushed up, breaking as many branches as it could.

In this situation, of course, the slender thin man climbed faster.

It seemed that someone was yelling from below, saying "Don't go up anymore!"

The thin man was not willing to listen, because there was a bloody mouth chasing him five feet below.

He just muttered to himself, and suddenly his hand felt light, and there was a click -

The branch he used for leverage broke.

Damn it!

The thin man fell freely, and even grabbed two branches to slow down, but they broke.

It's over. He secretly said that I'm going to die.

The giant bear directly below immediately opened its mouth wide, waiting for the takeaway to be fed automatically.

But at this moment, a long knife flew from below and chopped the giant bear's cheek with a "puff".
