"Haha, a little bit. Sorry to make you laugh!"

In response to Zhuzi's question, Li Yuemin nodded without any concealment.

"Why would you want your wife to laugh at you? It just shows how loving you and your wife are.

By the way, Yuemin, I used to spend all day in the woods and didn't interact much with people of my age in the village. But I did meet you a few times.

You were not like you are now at that time. You had your back straight, walked with a breeze, and your every move revealed courage and fortitude.

Especially, he is calm in the face of difficulties and his shooting is more accurate than that of an old hunter like me.

If someone didn't know, they would think you were a member of the army, or that you were possessed by some heroic spirit!"

“Haha, it seems that Brother Zhuzi is not only good at hunting, but also has a first-rate ability in praising people.

I'm not afraid of you laughing at me, but all these changes are because I married a good wife."

After hearing what Zhuzi said, Li Yuemin hurriedly covered up with a guilty conscience.

...

...

In order to prevent him from bringing up any outrageous topics, Li Yuemin decided to take control of the conversation:

"Brother Zhuzi, do you have any plans for the future?"

Zhuzi was just about to be asked about his sore spot by Li Yuemin. He shook his bare sleeves and said dejectedly:

"Now that I am a cripple, what plans can I have?"

"Have you ever thought about marrying a wife and having her give birth to a bunch of children for you?"

"Getting married? Yuemin, weren't you tired just now? Are you making fun of me?

My father lost his left leg, I lost my right arm, two cripples plus my mother, what blind girl would be willing to marry into my family?"

"I just want to ask one question, do you want to get married in this life?"

Li Yuemin looked at the pillar firmly and asked the question again.

"Yes, of course!"

"Then follow me. Let's make a name for ourselves in this old forest. When we have enough money, I'll take you to the capital and find someone to make you a prosthetic arm. It won't delay anything."

"But my left hand is slow to shoot, and it will only be a burden to you."

Zhuzi's eyes lit up after hearing Li Yuemin's words, but only for a few seconds before dimming again. He hung his head and said no more.

"Brother Zhuzi, if you are not used to using a spear, you can use a pistol.

To be honest, I know a brother named Guang in the black market. He is very capable.

A few days ago, when I went to sell bear meat, I bought a "twenty-shot" pistol, which is the Mauser pistol used by the guerrilla leader Li Xiangyang in "Plain Guerrillas".

Now that I have this big male bear to exchange for money, how about I get you one too?"

"The maximum range of the Mauser pistol is 150 meters, the theoretical rate of fire can reach 900 rounds per minute, the gun body is 28 centimeters long, weighs 1.24 kilograms, and has a capacity of 20 rounds. It has a long range and strong firepower."

When Zhuzi heard this, he opened his mouth in surprise and listed all the Mauser pistols in one breath as if they were his own treasures.

Just when Li Yuemin thought that Zhuzi also had a Mauser pistol, he was amused by Zhuzi's next words:

"It's a pity that it knows me, but I don't know it. Let alone use it."

"As long as you follow me, it won't be a problem.

Not only will I teach you how to use a gun, I'll also teach you how to use a knife with your left hand, and train you to be the Divine Condor Hero, hahahaha!"

Li Yuemin looked at the pillar's red cheeks illuminated by the firelight and revealed a little bit of his strength.

"I am the Great Eagle Warrior, and you are the eagle, brother Eagle, I will follow you."

"Okay, it's a deal. From now on, we two brothers will share the good times and the bad times together!"

In the darkness, two pairs of hands clasped together tightly. Li Yuemin had a loyal follower, and Zhuzi's family's livelihood was also secure.

This is Li Yuemin's vision in hiring people. He was attracted by Zhuzi's loyalty and his familiarity with the forest.

He doesn't care how capable he is.

Because he is a king himself! He can lead even the most mediocre soldiers.

“How could I be missing out on this good thing?

Brother, I'll do it with you too!"

At some point, Li Yuejin appeared in front of the two of them, carrying a bulging sack on his back.

"Yuejin, you are really fast!

I didn't disturb my mother, and your sister-in-law isn't unhappy, right?"

"Hey, I'll do the work, don't worry, I'll take care of it.

I brought everything with me, including this, which I'm sure will come in handy."

Li Yuejin put down the sack and took out things one by one. Finally he took out a bottle of Lao Baigan and some salt.

"It seems like you want to eat roasted venison. You know what, I'm really hungry."

Li Yuemin stroked his brother's head with his big hand as a confirmation.

"You two brothers sit and talk, I'll come."

After Zhuzi finished speaking, he pulled out the dagger from his boot, walked towards the big male elk, and cut off a piece of leg meat.

He turned back, scraped the snow off the rocks, cut the meat into pieces, sprinkled some salt on it, and started grilling it with branches.

This set of movements is clean and neat, and it is obvious that a lot of them have been done.

As the aroma of meat wafted out, Li Yuemin's stomach began to growl.

He took the venison handed over by Zhu and chewed it in big mouthfuls, then took a sip of wine and handed it back to Zhu:

"Take a sip too. This wine was stolen by Chuntao from his father. It's really good!"

Zhuzi was not polite. He took it and gulped down a few mouthfuls. He wiped his mouth and said:

“It’s so fucking awesome!”

Li Yuejin was so greedy that he smacked his lips. He grabbed it and took a big gulp.

The three of them quickly drank up the bottle of wine. Perhaps due to the effect of alcohol, Li Yuemin's face turned red.

Looking at the old forest shrouded in the night, I suddenly felt full of pride:

"With the moon in the sky and the snow on the ground, it is a great pleasure for you and me to enjoy a feast here.

How about we follow the example of Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei and come to his brother's Peach Garden to swear brotherhood?"

"Okay, okay, Yuemin, your ability is far superior to mine, I am willing to be your little brother.

Big Brother, please accept my greetings!"

Zhuzi stood up, knelt on one knee, held his empty sleeve with one hand, and made a fist gesture:

"Big Brother, please accept my respects!"

The reason why Zhuzi was willing to be under Li Yuemin was that ever since he lost his arm, he had been looked down upon everywhere.

Only Li Yuemin looked at him differently, which deeply moved Zhuzi.

A gentleman will die for his friend. He secretly swore in his heart that he would follow Li Yuemin all his life and never leave him!

Seeing this, Li Yuejin also followed Zhuzi's example and clasped his hands together towards Li Yuemin.

"Brother Zhuzi, how can we do this? Get up quickly."

"I will never get up unless my elder brother gives the order."

Unexpectedly, this pillar was stubborn and just wouldn't get up no matter how Li Yuemin dragged it.

Li Yuemin was left with no other options but to agree temporarily:

"Okay, in that case, second brother and third brother, please stand up quickly!

We have drunk the wine, eaten the meat, and the day is almost dawning. It is time to get down to business."

"Brother, how are you going to deal with this big guy?"

“It’s impossible to take it all away at once, so I’ll just pick out the meat and chop it up, and take as much as I can.

If you can’t take it with you, bury it first and come back to get it later.”

"Okay, big brother, I'm familiar with this stuff, you and the third brother can just help me."

After saying that, Zhuzi came to the male bear again, cut open its big belly with a knife, and began to drain the blood from its chest.

When Qing Wantang took a look, he was surprised to find that the beast was huge and its body parts were also big.

Especially the internal organs, which are much larger than those of other beasts.

Zhuzi took out the deer heart, stomach and liver and handed them to Li Yuejin:

"Here you go, these are all good stuff.

I once killed a big bear when I went into the mountains with my father.

My father and I have eaten hot raw deer liver before, and it tasted so tender and fresh. How could I have forgotten about it just now?"

"Second brother, you don't understand this, that thing can't be eaten raw.

Firstly, the nutrients in deer liver are difficult to be fully absorbed by the human body, and secondly, there may be bacteria in deer liver, so eating it raw is not good for health.”

"Big brother is big brother. Three generations of hunters in my family, not one of them understands this."

Li Yuemin chuckled in response to Zhuzi's praise, and swung his axe to chop at the male bear.

We dismembered it into large pieces that could be dragged, and Li Yuejin and I moved it to the top of the ditch bit by bit.

"Hey, brother, look, what is this big thing?"

At this time, Li Yuejin suddenly picked up a bunch of things and asked curiously.
