Chapter 5: Attacked!



Upon hearing this, Lu Tu's eyebrows shot up, and his entire demeanor became sharp: "If anyone dares to say another bad word about my wife, I will never forgive them!"

"Hey, who are you trying to scare, you coward?" Aunt Zhao was not afraid of Lü Tu at all. In their eyes, Lü Tu was just a soft persimmon that could be easily manipulated.

Lu Tu knew that reasoning wouldn't work in the environment of Wuchuan, so he drew his bow and aimed an arrow at Zhao Da Niang's forehead. This action terrified everyone present, especially Zhao Da Niang.

At that moment, she cried out and fell to the ground, her eyes filled with undisguised terror: "Lu Tu, what are you doing? Are you going to kill me?"

Lu Tu said coldly, "I don't want to repeat myself. If anyone dares to laugh at my wife again, I'll send them to their death!"

Everyone present nodded in agreement, remaining silent for fear of accidentally angering Lü Tu.

Among the crowd, only Aunt Chen was Lu Tu's neighbor. The two families shared a well and had a relatively harmonious relationship. She quickly agreed, saying, "Are you going into the mountains again? I'll take care of your wife for you. Be careful when you go into the mountains."

Lu Tu's expression softened considerably. He put away his bow and arrows and cupped his hands in a gesture of respect to her, saying, "Please take care of me, Aunt Chen. I'll be back soon."

After walking for half an hour, we arrived at Eagle Mountain. There were footprints left by other people in the snow at the foot of the mountain from time to time, so it seemed that there was definitely no prey in these places.

Lu Tu could only walk deeper into the mountains, but the deeper he went, the thicker the snow became. Fortunately, Lu Tu was still wearing the deerskin boots that his mother had sewn for him two years ago, so his feet didn't get frostbite.

However, every step he took would sink into the snow, which was very tiring. So he took out his machete, peeled off two pieces of hard bark, tied them to his boots with rope to increase the contact area, and occasionally he could slide on the slope, which made him faster in the mountains.

Taking advantage of the fact that no one was around, he took down the bow and arrow to test his accuracy. This horn bow was much heavier than the composite bow from his previous life. Even for someone with Lu Tu's strength, it was difficult to draw it fully.

With a whoosh, the rain of arrows pierced a tree 30 meters away, deviating from Lü Tu's target by no more than 2 centimeters.

"Not enough, the accuracy isn't good enough!" Lu Tu had practiced archery in his previous life, so he continued to practice drawing the bow to get used to the ox horn bow. After he ran out of arrows, Lu Tu went to pick them up again to continue getting a feel for it.

Lu Tu stopped shooting after he fired his 30th arrow, which hit the target on a tree trunk 50 meters away with a margin of error of no more than 1 centimeter.

Lu Tu decided to find a water source first. He walked in the mountains for half an hour but didn't even find a rabbit.

In his memory, there was a hot spring deep in the Eagle Mountain, which should have been the best hunting area.

With his superb physical strength and rich experience in field combat, he arrived at the water source in less than half an hour.

He spotted a deer from a distance, which was now standing cautiously by the hot spring, observing without immediately drinking from it.

Lu Tu became excited upon seeing this. Deer are valuable creatures, every part of them is precious!

Not only can we eat venison, but we can also give deer antlers and blood to Song Yuxi to nourish her body. The deer hide can also be used to make leather clothing. We should be fine once the weather warms up.

Lu Tu quietly crouched in the woods, trying to blend in with his surroundings, but the male deer seemed very alert. It lingered by the water source for about five minutes before finally relaxing and starting to drink.

Lu Tu still didn't make a move. At this moment, the stag was still very wary. He was waiting for the stag to finish drinking the water. Whether it is a person or an animal, the moment after being satisfied is the moment when they are most relaxed!

Patiently waiting for the stag to finish drinking the water, Lü Tu tore off his gloves, sensed the wind speed and direction, calculated the distance, and in a single breath stood up, drew his bow and shot an arrow in one smooth motion!

The distance between Lü Tu and the stag was about 35 meters. As soon as Lü Tu made his move, the stag noticed the abnormality and began to run alertly. However, Lü Tu's arrow was like a bullet that pierced through the air, and its speed was extremely fast, hitting the stag in the head with one strike.

Despite being shot by an arrow, the stag still ran more than ten meters before collapsing in the snow with a mournful cry.

Lu Tu excitedly ran over. The stag still had its eyes open. Lu Tu took out his wood-chopping knife and slashed its neck, giving it a quick death.

Looking at the male elk radiating heat, Lü Tu estimated that it weighed at least 200 jin (100 catties), and there was definitely more meat than he could eat. He could take it to town to exchange for other supplies.

Just as Lü Tu reached out to take the arrow from the deer's head, his powerful sixth sense, honed amidst the hail of bullets, made him instinctively shift 5 centimeters to the left. In that 5-centimeter distance, he barely dodged the arrow aimed at his head.

Lu Tu rolled several times in a zigzag pattern on the ground and hid behind a tree. He looked at the direction in which the arrow had appeared in the snow and quickly determined the location of the attacker.

The other party had clearly arrived earlier than him and was much more patient! Lu Tu even suspected that the other party had discovered him long ago and was patiently waiting to kill and plunder!

At this moment, the opponent realized that Lü Tu was exceptionally skilled. He also used the terrain for cover and quickly moved through the woods. However, he was not as fast as Lü Tu, who had skis on his feet, in the snow.

Lu Tu seized the opportunity, drew his bow, and shot an arrow that struck the man squarely in the chest. The man fell to the ground. Having learned his lesson, Lu Tu did not immediately check who the other man was.

Seeing that the opponent was still crawling on the ground, Lü Tu fired a few more arrows, then moved continuously within a radius of 100 meters. After confirming that there were no enemies hiding around, he finally arrived in front of the attacker.
