Deep forest.
The autumn hunt was in full swing. All that could be heard everywhere was the swish of arrows, the sounds of animals fleeing, and the guards' announcements:
"General Qin hunted a fox!"
"Minister An of the Ministry of War has hunted..."
"The third prince hunted a golden python!"
When the guards dragged out of the forest a golden python that was as thick as an arm, seven or eight meters long, and dripping with blood, all the ministers stared in amazement.
Wow!
Such a big snake!
If you get bitten by it, won’t you be torn into pieces?
"The third prince is so brave!"
"In my opinion, the winner this year will probably be the third prince again!"
"good!"
The civil servant was weak, but looking at this passionate scene, it seemed as if his whole body was boiling, and he kept clapping and cheering.
The younger generation of generals all went to participate in the competition. The older generals looked at the younger generation's achievements, and each of them had a look of satisfaction on their face.
When the youth are strong, the country is strong.
Only if young people work hard can the future of Da Chu be strong and powerful!
In the woods.
In shallower areas, there are only common prey such as pheasants and hares. Only when you go deep into the forest can you find goats and wild deer. Even deeper in the forest, there are said to be lions and tigers, but no one has ever seen them.
The seventh prince Chu Jinglin rode his horse straight into the depths of the mountains.
Several young men followed and flattered him: "The Seventh Prince is an excellent rider, he really has inherited the Emperor's teachings."
"The Seventh Prince will surely achieve great results in this year's autumn hunt!"
They were the sons of court officials. For the sake of their family and their future, they naturally wanted to curry favor with the only son of Imperial Noble Consort Jing.
Chu Jinglin held the bow alone, his head held high in a cold and arrogant manner:
"It's natural."
My father conquered the Chu kingdom, and his riding skills were taught by my father himself, so they must be good.
If he wants to hunt, he will hunt the strongest prey!
"This year, I will definitely beat that useless Ninth Prince!"
Several people: “…”
In every autumn hunt, the Seventh Prince and the Ninth Prince were almost always at the bottom.
What is the difference between the last and the second to last...
I thought the Seventh Prince was speaking in a wild tone and wanted to take first place.
However, the seventh prince was born standing at the end that thousands of people could never reach even if they spent their entire lives trying. He only needed to stretch out his hand to easily get everything.
Several people held smiling faces:
"It will be no problem for the Seventh Prince to come personally."
"The Seventh Prince is so heroic, we admire him!"
Chu Jinglin sneered, how could he not see these people's respectful welcome?
He rode his horse quickly, "Don't follow me, you're scaring off my prey."
Go deep into the mountains.
Chu Li quietly moved away from the Regent and passed through a dense forest. She heard a sarcastic voice saying, "I must defeat that waste, the Ninth Prince." When she looked up, it was her Seventh Brother.
She is at the bottom every year, what is there to compare with her?
The last one is also the first.
This year, is it possible that the Seventh Prince wants to compete with her for the last place?
Chu Li shook his head, preparing to find a quiet place to take a nap and wait until the autumn hunt was almost over before going out, but suddenly he heard a scream:
"ah!"
"ah--"
First it was sharp, then it became silent.
Something happened!
Chu Li rode his horse over and saw a big brown bear pounce on the guard and bite off his neck like killing a chicken, leaving only his limbs twitching.
Chu Jinglin on horseback immediately took out his bow and arrow.
As soon as he put the bow on, he saw a brown bear rushing towards him.
The arrow missed!
The frightened horse raised its hooves and fled in panic.
Chu Jinglin tried his best to keep his body steady and pulled out another arrow, but the brown bear suddenly rushed over, and its weight of more than 400 kilograms knocked the horse to the ground. He was thrown five or six meters away and fell several times.
"roar!"
The brown bear patted his chest frantically and rushed towards Chu Jinglin.
Chu Jinglin didn't care about the pain all over his body and drew out his sword. However, the brown bear had thick skin and tough flesh, so the sword didn't hurt it at all, but instead made it even more angry.
A bear paw knocked Chu Jinglin out again.
He spat out a mouthful of blood.
“Someone… Ahem, someone!”
However, Chu Jinglin went deep into the forest and dismissed his followers. The guards were bitten to death, so he was the only one left here.
Seeing the brown bear rushing over again, its ferocious fangs and the thumping sounds of its stomping on the ground almost tore Chu Jinglin to pieces.
At the critical moment.
An arrow comes!
Chu Jinglin turned his head and looked, "Chu Li?"
"What are you still standing there for? Why don't you run?"
At this time, Chu Li was climbing on the tree, with branches and leaves covering his body, and did not attract the attention of the brown bear.
Chu Jinglin didn't care about anything else and ran away immediately.
The brown bear roared and chased after him.
"roar--"
Chu Jinglin only felt his scalp tingling. The brown bear was following closely behind him, and he seemed to be able to smell the fishy stench in its mouth.
Disgusting.
He didn't dare to stop at all, and ran as fast as he could, panting and looking very embarrassed:
"Chu Li, shoot it!"
"Shoot it to death!"
Chu Li drew an arrow and calmly put it on the string, remembering how Chu Jinglin had called her a waste and laughed at her in public.
"Don't worry, Seventh Brother. I'm drawing the bow."
Chu Jinglin cursed:
"You idiot! It takes you so long to pull a normal bow. Hurry up! It's almost catching up with me!"
call out!
An arrow was shot and missed.
Chu Jinglin was furious: "You missed such a big bear. Are you blind? If you can't use your eyeballs, you might as well dig them out!"
Chu Li is innocent:
"Seventh brother, don't be anxious. You know I'm not good at archery. Why don't you run to my side and lure the brown bear closer?"
Chu Jinglin endured the pain in his chest, turned around and ran towards Chu Li.
"hurry up!"
call out!
This arrow missed again.
"Chu Li!!" Chu Jinglin was furious. "Did you do this on purpose? If anything happens to me today, my mother will never let you go!"
Chu Li was so anxious that she cried:
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry! Seventh Brother, I wanted to aim as well, but I was nervous and scared, and my hands were shaking."
"You useless thing, you are hanging on a tree, what are you afraid of!"
He is the one to be afraid of!
As soon as he stopped, he would be knocked down by the brown bear.
His legs were almost like Fire Wheels and he was running so fast that smoke was coming out.
He can hardly run anymore!
"Seventh brother, don't worry. I will save you right away." Chu Li pulled the bow in a panic. Chu Jinglin ran in front and Hun chased behind.
"hurry up!"
“Hurry up!”
"Ah! It's almost catching up with me! Chu Li!"
The forest was filled with Chu Jinglin's screams.
Chu Li held the arrow and aimed at the frenzied brown bear, but there was a dark look in his eyes.
Brown bears usually hunt by dragging their prey back to eat after catching it, but it had already killed a man and a horse, and was still chasing Chu Jinglin. It didn't look like it was hungry, but rather like...
Intentional homicide.
It seemed particularly manic.
He patted his chest, roared, his eyes turned red, and chased Chu Jinglin like a madman.
How could the ferocious beast in the depths of the forest go mad for no reason?
"Chu Li, you bastard, are you able to do this? I can't run anymore!"
Chu Li's eyes were slightly stern, and he raised his voice and said:
"I heard that brown bears don't like to eat dead prey. If you can't run anymore, why don't you lie down and pretend to be dead? Then it won't attack you."
Chu Jinglin really couldn't breathe, his legs felt weak and his vision went dark.
He fell headfirst to the ground and obediently pretended to be dead.
However, the brown bear did not stop. Instead, it raised its sharp paw even more frantically and stabbed it hard into Chu Jinglin's neck.
Chu Li's expression suddenly changed.
This idiot!
Ask him to pretend to be dead, and he really pretends to be dead!
The five fingers holding the arrow sharpened, and the long arrow scraped through the air and pierced through a fallen leaf. The arrow energy seemed to condense into a sharp shape in the air and went straight into the brown bear's throat.
Phew!
