Chapter 4: Acquired the skill of hitting the target with every shot, she wiped out the entire family that harmed her (Part 4)

In the afternoon, villagers usually stay at home and do not go out. When Hu Xiaomeng and the others walked into the back mountain, they did not meet anyone else.

The further they went inside, the quieter it became. It was so quiet that the Fuda brothers were a little scared, fearing that they might encounter wild beasts.

"Fubao, we can't go any further inside. It would be troublesome if there were pythons, tigers, lions, or something like that."

The Fuda brothers held back their cousin who was about to go deeper into the mountains. They had never seen her so brave before.

"Brother, we haven't seen any birds in the trees along the way, let alone pheasants or rabbits. They must have been scared away by the villagers' crazy raids.

If we don’t continue going inside, we will have to return empty-handed today.

Don't worry, we are still far away from the mountains. We only need to walk a dozen steps at most.

If we still don’t find anything, we’ll leave soon.”

Following these cousins ​​along the way, Hu Xiaomeng discovered that a lot of tree bark had been peeled off, and this village was really poor.

"Okay, then we'll go ten more steps at most. If we still don't find anything, we'll return immediately."

Seeing that his cousin was so persistent, Fu Da asked the fifth and sixth brothers to protect her behind them, while he took the other brothers to walk ahead to explore the way.

After walking five or six steps, Fox Xiaomeng noticed a rustling sound in the bushes and immediately picked up the slingshot in his hand and shot it.

Everyone only heard a "bang" sound, accompanied by the "cock-a-doodle-doo" of a chicken, and saw something fluttering on the ground several times and then became quiet.

"Pheasant, it's really a pheasant, such a fat pheasant!"

Fuwu and Fuliu pointed at the pheasant lying motionless on the ground in surprise. Blood was still flowing from its neck. It must have been hit by the stone shot by their cousin with a slingshot.

Fu San and Fu Si picked up the pheasant in sacks. After lifting it, they found that the pheasant weighed about four pounds. For those who were good at hunting in the village, it was considered amazing if they could catch one weighing three pounds.

"Fubao, you must not tell anyone about this skill of yours, especially those hunters in our village. I'm worried they'll come after you behind your back."

The older Fukuda and Fuer were happy for their younger sister when they saw how powerful she was, but they were more worried that this skill, which was even more powerful than that of the old hunter, would bring her danger.

After hearing this, the other brothers also realized the seriousness of the matter and gathered around to seriously admonish their sister.

"Brothers, I understand, but some things can't be hidden. Later on, I have to hunt tigers and wild boars, so it's impossible for me to keep the news secret.

The most urgent thing is to get silver as soon as possible. I want to buy two hunting rifles (gunpowder appeared in the late Tang and Song dynasties, and later evolved into a series of tools, including hunting rifles. Of course, they were relatively simple at that time. By the Ming Dynasty, many hunters were using them for hunting) for self-defense. If anyone dares to shoot me, I will destroy his nest."

Hu Xiaomeng believes that she never misses a shot. Those who don't believe in it can come and provoke her, but she will definitely not be able to respond.

"A shotgun? Can you shoot it?"

Fu Liu felt that his sister was a little too imaginative. Firing a hunting rifle was different from playing with a slingshot.

"I've never fired a shotgun, but if I get the hang of this stuff I'll be able to do it."

Hu Xiaomeng made a shooting gesture very confidently.

It's not that she likes to brag, but when she traveled through time and space to Wen Nuan, she often followed her second cousin Sun Ning to the army to practice shooting.

The structures of guns all over the world are similar. There is no reason why she can use the army's gun but can't handle a hunting rifle.

After hearing her words, Fuda and the others fell silent. They saw the determined look on her face and felt that her small body was filled with great energy. They believed that if they gave her a hunting rifle at this moment, she could really fire it.

"Okay, now let's stop talking and continue hunting pheasants and rabbits. We'll have a good meal and take some back to the elders."

Finding that everyone was standing still, Hu Xiaomeng asked them to continue moving forward.

If you harvest a lot today, you can ask the elders to take some to the market to sell before going to the landlord's house to work tomorrow.

I don’t know if God is particularly kind to the time traveler Hu Xiaomeng, but after they walked a few steps inside, they caught three hares, four pheasants, and a wild goat.

"Lao Liu, pinch me and let me know that I'm not dreaming. I really saw a goat."

Seeing the wild goat lying on the ground unable to move, Fu Wu stretched out his arm and asked Fu Liu beside him to pinch him.

"Go hug it and see if you are dreaming."

Fu Liu kicked him in the butt from behind, causing him to fall onto the goat. The wild goat, which was already seriously injured, fainted before it could even bleat.

"You old bastard!"

Fu Wu, who had a close contact with the wild goat, turned back and glared at his brother who had teased him with gritted teeth, and the two of them chased each other around the goat.

"Alright, you two, stop playing around and take the goat back quickly, lest the strong smell of blood attract other wild animals or pythons."

Fu Da quickly spoke up to stop his two brothers from fighting, and everyone quickly packed up the prey and returned home with a full load.

The others were responsible for cleaning a pheasant and a hare by the stream behind the house, and then taking them to the woods to roast and eat.

Fu San and Fu Si were responsible for taking the goats and the remaining rabbits and pheasants home and keeping them for their grandmother.

Standing beside the crystal clear shallow stream, Hu Xiaomeng smiled as if someone was going to be in big trouble. Only the original owner, a simple-minded girl, believed Erya's lies.

She had been staring here for so long and hadn't seen a single fish. Who would come here to fish?

Usually, the villagers use winnowing baskets to catch most of the small fish, and these fish don’t even have a chance to grow up.

Fishermen usually go to the river and fish at night because that is when larger fish appear.

"Forget it, I'll eat and drink my fill before I go find someone to settle the score. Although I don't eat much, I still don't have enough oil and water, so I really can't help but feel hungry."

Seeing that his cousins ​​had already processed the pheasant and rabbit's internal organs, Fox Xiaomeng touched his stomach which began to growl again.

Soon, Fuda and his friends gathered the firewood, set up a rack and started to roast the food. It sizzled with oil and the aroma filled the air.

Hu Xiaomeng thinks it would be more delicious if some cumin powder was sprinkled on it.

However, when conditions are limited, having meat to eat is already very good, and you can't ask for too much.

Fu Liu and his friends were already drooling, staring at the meat on the grill without blinking, for fear that it would burn.
