Chapter 8 Learning to Hunt
The afterglow of summer gradually came to an end, and Chen Xuan's figure carried a bamboo basket and headed towards Zhang Shan's house in his memory.

But I was always feeling uneasy in my heart.

The previous scenes kept appearing in my mind.

Such a strange scene was something he had never encountered before and had never imagined.

Especially that golden finger reminder made him feel cold all over.

That's definitely not a waterweed.

Water plants cannot be dissolved by child urine.

Even at this moment, he thought of more. The death of his predecessor might not be drowning, and it was very likely to be the same as him today.

"The river can't go any further!"

As the thought flashed through his mind, Chen Xuan's heart became heavier and heavier.

Goldfinger's ability is undoubtedly very powerful, allowing him to do many incredible things.

Just like these two days, I always got food by chance.

But it is obvious that the system also conforms to the rules of the real world.

Without the river, it will undoubtedly be more difficult for him to obtain food next.

However, Chen Xuan also understands that when the river is so dangerous, even if he can get food, he may be dancing in the gate of hell every time, and no one can guarantee that he will be so safe next time.

With such a golden finger, he still has a broader future, and there is absolutely no need to take this risk now.

Thinking of this, Chen Xuan couldn't help but glance at the bamboo basket behind him, and his heart became more determined.

At this moment, the Zhangshan family in front gradually came into view.

Compared with his family and Chen Erzhuang's family, Zhang Shan's family is undoubtedly much more impressive. It is not only built with bricks, but also has a small courtyard, which is almost larger in scope.

Chen Xuan took a deep breath and quickly quickened his pace.

A moment later, his figure arrived at the door of Zhang Shan's house.

"Dong dong!"

The door was knocked lightly.

"Who is it!"

A rough voice came from the courtyard.

"Uncle Zhang Shan, it's me, Ergou!"

Chen Xuan spoke loudly.

"Two dogs?"

There was some confusion in the courtyard, but he quickly stepped forward and opened the door to the courtyard.

When the door opened, Chen Xuan finally saw Zhang San clearly.

This is a middle-aged man who is stronger than his second uncle. Although his hair has turned gray, the bulging muscles on his body still make people feel numb. On his rough face, there is a line that almost extends from his forehead. Scars to the neck.

It is said that Zhang Shan was injured by a wild beast when he entered the mountains in his early years.

"Ergou, what's the matter?"

Zhang Shan looked at Chen Xuan with a tired expression and spoke with some doubts.

Zhang Shan, who was from the same village, naturally knew about Chen Xuan, but he couldn't understand the reason why Chen Xuan came to find him.

"That's it, Uncle Zhang Shan, I want to learn hunting."

Chen Xuan didn't mince words, but spoke directly.

"hunt?"

Zhang Shan was stunned for a moment, then frowned.

But before he could speak, Chen Xuan had already taken off the bamboo basket behind his back and removed the grass blades covering it.

When he saw the herring in the bamboo basket clearly, Zhang Shan couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

"Uncle Zhang Shan, Ergou knows the rules. This is a herring I caught today."

Chen Xuan spoke respectfully.

"You caught it!"

Zhang Shan's brows couldn't help but twitch, and he looked a little surprised.Zhang Shan knew how dangerous the river was. He didn't expect that the boy in front of him could catch such a big fish in the river.

"Yes, Uncle Zhang Shan, I know that fish is not as good as other meats. Uncle Zhang Shan, you think you can learn it in a few days."

Chen Xuan nodded, his words still respectful.

"This fish probably weighs about twenty kilograms. Let's do it. I can count ten days for you. Can you think of Ergou?"

Hearing Chen Xuan's words of affirmation again, Zhang Shan came back from the shock, pondered for a moment, and then spoke.

Fish meat is indeed not comparable to other meats, but this fish weighs twenty kilograms, and Zhang San has no intention of rejecting it.

Even if he is a hunter, he cannot catch prey every time he goes into the mountains, not to mention that the mountains have undergone major changes and the risks have further increased.

Twenty pounds of fish is already a lot.

"Thank you Uncle Zhang Shan!"

Listening to Zhang Shan's words, Chen Xuan couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief and quickly thanked him.

"You're welcome. You provide the meat and I'll teach you how to hunt. You just get what you need."

"come in!"

Zhang Shan spoke, then turned sideways to get out of the way.

Chen Xuan quickly put the bamboo basket on his back and walked into the courtyard.

"Just put the fish in the kitchen house."

Zhang Shan said.

Chen Xuan quickly responded and carried the fish into the kitchen house.

After finding a wooden basin to put the herring down, he walked out again.

Zhang Shan was already waiting for him in the courtyard, holding a wooden bow in his hand.

"After today, for the next ten days, you come here every afternoon and I will teach you for an hour. It's up to you how much you can learn. After ten days, you can bring over a pound of meat or another fish. .”

Zhang Shan spoke in a rough voice.

"I understand, Uncle Zhang Shan!"

Chen Xuan nodded quickly.

"Hunting, the most important thing is to search and track the prey, to be familiar with the jungle, and in archery, the prey is faster than people. It is almost impossible to catch the prey with other weapons. Only the bow and arrow can give you a chance to kill the prey. Archery It’s also the most important!”

"I'll teach you how to shoot an arrow first."

Zhang Shan spoke slowly.

Chen Xuan also immediately began to listen carefully, not daring to be distracted at all.

"The first step in archery is to stand and hold the bow. The archer stands sideways to the target, which means that your chest should be facing the person and the prey you want to shoot, and your feet should be spread apart. Look mine."

Zhang Shan opened his mouth, and then started to display the wooden bow in front of Chen Xuan.

Chen Xuan watched carefully.

It wasn't until a moment later that Zhang Shan handed the wooden bow to Chen Xuan.

At the same time, Chen Xuan was taught step by step how to stand and hold the bow.

However, it is obvious that this body's talent is only average. Chen Xuan spent more than an hour learning just this stance and holding the bow.

The sky gradually darkened, and Chen Xuan barely managed to control it.

"Okay, come back tomorrow!"

Zhang Shan shook his head and spoke softly.

"Yes!"

"Then come and disturb Uncle Zhang Shan again tomorrow."

Chen Xuan thanked him and left Zhang Shan's house with the bamboo basket on his back.

On the way back home, the sunset in the West had completely set, and night began to fall.

Facing the night, compared to yesterday, Chen Xuan was obviously a lot more nervous today, and his pace involuntarily accelerated a bit.

It wasn't until he finally reached home that he breathed a sigh of relief.
