The next day, Wen Mianmian also heard Xuanxuan and the others talking about going hunting in the mountains. Wen Mianmian only told them to be careful and prepared some barbecue items for them.
"Help me shoot two pheasants when you come back."
Wen Mianmian also wanted to eat barbecue, but she wanted to eat beggar's chicken more, and the pheasant meat was more delicious. It just so happened that they were going hunting, so Wen Mianmian asked them to bring one or two back for her.
"Okay, besides pheasants, I want something else. Whatever I want to eat, except for large animals, I will get them all for me." Chenchen patted his chest and said.
"Go ahead and hunt them. I wouldn't mind if there were more small animals besides pheasants, but if you can find one that lives a better life, you can keep it."
"Then I'll try not to hit the animals' vital parts tomorrow and catch some alive for Mother to raise."
"Hmm~"
"By the way, you guys have to be careful and try not to go too deep into the woods, okay?"
"And bring a few more people with you, so that if something really happens, there will be help."
Wen Mianmian was still a little worried, after all, they were not very familiar with the forest here.
"I understand, mother. Don't worry. We won't go deep into the forest, and we will bring some people with us." Xuanxuan naturally knew his mother's concerns.
However, in the past few years, they have practiced the skills given by their mother and practiced martial arts frequently, so they still have the ability to protect themselves. However, in order not to make their mother worry, they will also bring more people with them. After all, there are not only them, but also others.
"That's good. After all, safety is the most important thing."
"By the way, don't tell the kids about your hunting trip, lest they start making trouble too."
The little ones are still with their mother and haven't come back yet.
If they knew they were going out hunting, the little ones would definitely pester them to go with them.
"I understand, mother."

The next day, several people set off in a carriage, bringing with them the barbecue grill that Wen Mianmian had specially prepared for them. She also told them to find a wide area when barbecuing and not to set the forest on fire.
They had already checked out the location in advance, and the barbecue grill was placed next to the river. After all, there was water there, so it was convenient to do anything.
Several people walked around with slingshots and swords, shooting at any small animals they saw.
Among the seven people in the group, only the eldest princess did not know how to shoot arrows or use a slingshot, while the other six did.
So the eldest princess followed just to help.
Honghui's slingshot is very good. It can hit their vital points directly. Even if it cannot kill them, it can make them unable to move. Because Honghui has already caught several pheasants and rabbits alive.
Xuanxuan told him to keep one or two and take them back to his mother.
Honghui naturally had no objection and nodded in agreement.
Having shot several pheasants and rabbits, Honghui gradually gained confidence. At this moment, he no longer felt useless. Instead, he felt that even if he could not shoot arrows or ride horses, he was not completely useless.
I have to thank my second and third brothers. If they hadn't taught me how to use a slingshot, I might not have achieved what I have today.
There were quite a lot of wild game in the forest. They quickly killed several of them and captured two or three alive. When they had almost finished, they returned to the river with the prey they had hunted.
The guards who brought the prey swiftly took over the prey to be processed, cleaned it up by the river, and then everyone started to make a fire and grill the meat in front of the barbecue grill.
"I think this is not enough. I will go and catch some more. The rest can be taken back for my mother and father to eat." Chenchen thought as he looked at the processed prey.
Then he looked at Wen Yueming and said, "Yueming, come with me."
"good."
Wen Yueming agreed without saying a word, stood up, and the two of them went to get their bows and arrows.
"Hey, there are a lot of prey here. You don't want to avoid the barbecue, do you?" Tiantian called them and looked at Chenchen with a meaningful look.
Yesterday I told him to barbecue today, and now that we are about to start barbecue, he wants to go hunting. If this isn't an attempt to escape, then what is?
Chenchen's eyes flickered, and he felt a little uneasy, but he still stiffened his neck and said, "Who said that? I just saw that there were too few prey. There are so many of us, how can these few prey be enough to eat? And we have to bring them back to my mother and the others. This amount of prey is not enough at all."
"If we fight more now, we won't have to fight anymore after we finish eating the barbecue."
Tiantian looked at the six or seven prey on the ground thoughtfully. These prey were very small. There were indeed a lot of people here, and these eight or nine prey did not seem to be enough.
"Then you two won't be able to catch much." Although there are quite a few small prey in this forest, they are very good at hiding. If your aim is not good enough, you won't be able to catch many.
"I'll go with you." Honghui stood up. He had just hunted two prey and he wanted to try again.
His study partner, Ulanarazir, also stood up and said, "I'm going too."
"Then let's go together. We can get more with more people." Xuanxuan stood up and looked at the eldest sister and Tiantian and said, "Eldest sister and second sister, you two can grill here first. We will be back soon."
"That's fine. Just be careful then." She nodded sweetly.
Then they picked up their bows and slingshots and headed back into the woods, followed by three or four guards.
The rest stayed.
"Tiantian, can you teach me how to grill meat?" The eldest princess didn't want to just sit here and wait for food without doing anything.
"Sure, grilling is actually very simple. I'll teach you, big sis."
The two men started to grill the meat, while the other group was looking for prey. Because they had just hunted here, there were very few small animals here, so they had to go a little further into the woods.
"Weren't there a lot of small animals here just now? Why can't I see any now?" Chenchen muttered as he looked around.
"They must have been scared away just now. Let's go inside and take a look." Several people slowed down and walked forward.
Sure enough, they found a little rabbit not far ahead.
Wen Yueming patted Chenchen on the shoulder and signaled him to look forward.
Chenchen naturally noticed it and made a gesture to them, asking them to walk more lightly.
Then he took out his bow and arrow and aimed at the little rabbit eating grass in front of him. With a whoosh, the arrow shot straight towards the little rabbit.
But the little rabbit was also very smart. When it heard the sound, it quickly dodged to the side, and the arrow missed the target instantly.
