Chapter 42 2.32 The strange "rules" of hunting on the first day

Chapter 2

2.32 The first day of shooting and hunting, strange "rules"

Shi Guangzhu named his son Shi Meng, but it's a pity that just by looking at the surface, it is clear that this young man has nothing to do with "Meng" in any aspect.

Shi Meng looks handsome and tall, but he looks a little thin and his expression is a little dull, this is because he is not a warrior in the first place.

This son's main pursuit now is to become a talent in the imperial examination. Now he is less than [-] years old and has a reputation as a scholar. This time he even hung a sword symbolically when he came here, and he didn't even bring a longbow.

Fortunately, although he is a scholar, he doesn't have the sourness of those people. We communicated a lot these days. Anyway, Wei Xu thinks he is not bad, he is polite and has a good way of dealing with others.

"Brothers, didn't you think about giving some to Brother Shi in previous years?" Wei Xu was also puzzled by this.

This time, except for Niu Ben and Liu Dong, everyone else smiled awkwardly but politely.

Wei Xu slapped himself on the forehead, and finally remembered Jia Zhen who was also sitting in the viewing area, and Jia Rong, who was the only younger generation beside him.

It seems that there are no successors, and the failure of the younger generation to become a talent is really not a problem of that person or which family, but the entire martial arts class. It is really hopeless.

"Let's go!" Niu Ben didn't even bother to explain, he waved his crossbow in his hand and strode away. This time, Liu Dong, who had always been at odds with him, didn't talk nonsense, and set off immediately.

To be honest, if it weren't for the frequent gatherings of everyone during this period, Hachiko's internal relationship would not be that good.

Although Niu Ben and Liu Dong are not pleasing to each other, they have a good relationship on weekdays. After all, the two are so-so and can be regarded as "cherishing each other", while others are ugly.

Relatively speaking, Shi Meng is considered better, and the others are even worse than Jia Lian. At least Jia Lian is good at eating, drinking, whoring, gambling, and smoking, but he still has a bottom line.

In the original book, except for the stinking problems of some dudes, she really didn't do anything that angered people. On the contrary, Wang Xifeng can really say "regarding human life like nothing".

In this case, Wei Xu, a junior, naturally had nothing to say, so he had no choice but to greet him and let him go.

This time to participate in the spring hunting, Wei Xu is naturally fully armed, a navy blue samurai uniform, a standard half-length leather armor is standard equipment, everyone is like this, and there is a BMW chasing wind under his crotch.

Naturally, at his waist was the precious sword "Starlight" given by Jia Lian, and then there was the one-stone and a half-precious bow that also came from Jia's mansion hanging in the bag behind the saddle.

"Brothers, you have heard clearly, although we have come here like this in previous years, I still have to say it again.

According to the arrangement of the whole spring hunting, the first day is regarded as a competition, when the time comes, it will be based on the harvest of the prey, and the top three will have their own rewards.

However, the second and third days are free activities, which are basically time for each family to communicate.

Theoretically, it is to build relationships and make friends, but there are also people who have grudges and grudges, and many people have died here over the years.

This is also the tacit agreement of all parties, that is, unless there are extremely special circumstances, those who die here are their own business, and no investigation has been conducted for such reasons so far.

So in hunting, every family must be careful even on the first day, basically only with their own family, such as our current situation.

At that time, we will scatter all the 'little servants' around. Driving the prey is one aspect, and another point is the warning line.

Do pay attention, death here is useless, don't forget that there are still those Jian slaves this time, we must cheer up. "Before officially entering the hunting ground, Liu Dong yelled at everyone.

Wei Xu looked over in surprise, he really didn't know there was such a rule, but unfortunately there were a few "got it" scattered around, which showed everyone's attitude, which made Liu Dong, who had originally reminded everyone, very helpless.

"Brother Wei, where did you get this BMW?" Niu Ben, the only one with a bit of general style, asked enviously during the walk.

The others, including Liu Dong, were also surprised by Wei Xu's chasing BMW, but no one asked, and none of them counted on it for dinner.

"My master gave it to me." Wei Xu opened his mouth without blushing and heart beating.

"Pfft——" The "boy" on the horse behind him couldn't help but laugh, and was glared at by Wei Xu.That's right, Shi Xiangyun also came out at this time. She has been in the "Flying Fox" world for three years, and with her physical fitness, learning to ride a horse is just a piece of cake.

It's just that this girl has her own thoughts, and every time she goes out, she rides with Wei Xu, but it's a pity that it's definitely not going to happen now.

It's not just her "little servant" in name, everyone else is the same, and there are varying numbers of "little servants" behind them.

Just looking at their hulking backs, carrying knives and bows, and their obviously murderous eyes, everyone knows that they are here to "take the exam".

And it was obviously the first time he did this, otherwise he wouldn't have shaved his head before. .

On the contrary, Shi Xiangyun, in addition to the sword hanging on his waist, only carried two barrels of 72 feather arrows in the left and right bags behind the saddle.

As for Wei Xu, although he also carried a sword and a bow, he was really not sure, because he had never practiced archery before, and he only started practicing after he lived in Jia's mansion.

Not to mention today's riding and shooting, even foot shooting on flat ground, he has only just started to practice moving targets so far, and when he really shoots and hunts, the result is likely to be more tragic.

This is also the reason why Shi Xiangyun didn't bring a longbow. She hasn't practiced it yet.

Iron Net Mountain does not exist in reality, but it occupies a very large area in the world of "Red Mansion", covering tens of square kilometers, and it happens to be similar to a "plateau" shape.

The whole mountain rises from the ground, and the altitude should be more than 1000 meters, but this only includes a dozen or so hills around it. Surrounded by a fairly flat valley with an altitude of less than 500 meters.

This valley covers an extremely wide area, except for a few small hills in the middle, the other places are basically the same as the plains, only covered by grassland and jungle.

In the past, there was no way up the mountain here at all, and the surrounding people thought that it was also a mountainous area, so they only collected firewood and hunted on the surrounding hills until Emperor Gaozong's Northern Expedition.

Back then when he conquered the capital and continued northward, he passed Iron Net Mountain. Originally, he was just taking people to relax, but he found a problem when he climbed the mountain accidentally, so he designated it as a royal hunting ground after he established the capital.

At the same time, mountain roads were excavated, military camps were built, and even the general terrain was surveyed with people personally. This is how today's Iron Net Mountain paddock came into being.

Basically, except for the specially built avenue into the mountain, if you want to get in and out of other places, you can only climb over the mountains. This is the fundamental reason why Prince Yizhong chose this place as the assembly point, that is, it is secret enough.

Of course, Wei Xu was here for the first time, so he was not familiar with it at all, so he didn't ask any more questions, but just ran wildly with other people, and it didn't matter where he went.

The sons of each family of Hachiko, together with their servants, a total of more than [-] people roared past, surrounded by wild animals of all kinds.

All the families also opened their bows and arrows one after another, and as a result, after more than half an hour, except for Niu Ben and Liu Dong, the prey that everyone hung up immediately were all harvested by their own "boys".

Well, there is another special case, Wei Xu and his "little servants" are still empty-handed, and have not gained anything so far, so the surroundings are naturally ridiculed.

"Brother Xu, we can't really eat dry food when we go back!" I don't know if it's because of martial arts practice, but this girl is not happy now.

"We don't need to run so fast at all." Wei Xu didn't want to do this either, so he said quickly, "Otherwise, we can only see the prey running around but can't hit anything."

"Then stop for a while." Niu Ben raised his hand to signal everyone to stop, and waved to the "exams" by the way, "Go around and drive the prey out."

Soon, amidst the sound of galloping horses and yelling, the animals in this area were unlucky and had to crawl out of their dens and run around.

"Hurry up and do it!" Wei Xu became excited at this moment, and a series of feather arrows flew out, which indeed gained a lot.

"My virtuous brother, so you are so skilled!" Jia Lian said enviously, watching Wei Xu shoot the feather arrow, and took the next one from Shi Xiangyun's hand naturally.

"I also want to thank Brother Lian for his precious bow." Wei Xu's words were not watery.

This one-and-a-half stone longbow is excellent in workmanship and has a very positive center of gravity. As long as there is no problem with aiming, the feathered arrows fired will have a stable trajectory, and the natural hit rate is also satisfactory.

Moreover, with so many people in the Iron Net Mountain paddock, no one had a stronger bow than his, so the feathered arrows shot were very lethal, and ordinary prey would almost fall down when they hit it.
