Chapter 69 Headshot
The team of forty people was divided into two columns and was about to go in two directions when suddenly, several pheasants with brightly feathered feathers rushed out from the bushes.
Someone shouted "pheasant", and the next second, the situation got out of control, and dozens of people surrounded and attacked the pheasants. The brutal scene was like a wolf that had been hungry for several days, and Luo Cheng, Jian Yi and the other three were stunned.
These people are really working too hard!
Even the team leader Gao Ren didn't care about anything else at this time and hurriedly joined the chicken catching team.
Pheasants are different from domesticated chickens. Pheasants are not only thinner, but also more flexible, and can easily fly higher than trees. The forty-one people rushed into the forest and gradually dispersed.
"Lin Qi, what about us? Should we join them?" Luo Dali asked uncertainly.
"Don't go. If you join at this time, you'll be competing with them for meat. If you don't want to be dealt with, it's best not to go." Luo Cheng said seriously.
Jian Yitong agreed with Luo Cheng's opinion, "You can't go. Didn't you see that their eyes are green?"
Lin Qi didn't move either, but her attention was not on the pheasant and the team members chasing the pheasant. At this moment, she was looking around, with a hint of doubt between her delicate eyebrows.
She felt an unusual breath, which was very faint, very cold, and sometimes appeared and sometimes disappeared.
Where did it come from?
Cluck, cluck, cluck——
The rooster crowed rapidly, and beautiful wings flapped vigorously, with feathers falling all over the ground.
"Hahahaha, I caught it!"
"Keep calm, hold on tight, don't let it fly away!"
"Come here quickly, there is another one here."
"Okay, I'll come!"
The young man, who was holding a beautiful pheasant in his hand, couldn't suppress a smile on his face. He stepped back while smiling, and saw nothing behind him out of the corner of his eye, so he didn't care too much.
But just as he took another step back, he was suddenly tripped by something and fell down with a thud. At this time, he still held the pheasant tightly in his hand and cursed, "Damn, what the hell is that!"
The young man slapped the thing under his butt with his free hand as if to vent his anger. He didn't slap it hard, it could even be considered gentle. But because it was so gentle, like a caress, he immediately noticed something was wrong.
Why does it feel slippery?
The young man lowered his head in confusion and saw regular patterns. Why did this thing seem familiar?
All the hairs on his body instantly stood out and he looked towards the thick end in panic. The next second, he met a pair of golden vertical pupils.
"ah--"
The shrill, fear-filled sound resounded throughout the entire forest, making people tremble with fear.
Everyone turned their heads to look towards the source of the sound, and then saw a horrifying scene that they would never forget in their entire lives - a python as thick as a thigh opened its big mouth and bit one of their team members' shoulders, and its body was shrinking and wrapping around that team member.
Once the snake entangles the team member, all the bones in his body will probably be broken!
I don’t know if they were startled or frightened, but everyone present stood there in a daze. For a moment, no one stepped forward to rescue him.
The bitten team member shouted "Help" with a look of despair. He felt the slippery touch approaching his body, and at this moment he had only one thought in his mind.
He is going to die!
But he didn't want to die. The autumn harvest had just passed and the grain hadn't been distributed yet. He was still hungry. He hadn't had a full meal for several years. He didn't want to starve in the underground.
Tears blurred my vision in an instant.
In a flash, a stone as big as a fist, as fast as a bullet, hit the python's head accurately.
With a bang, something exploded, and debris flew everywhere. The young man was the first to be hit, and his face was covered with debris.
The snake that was about to wrap around him suddenly seemed to lose control and fell softly—
His shoulder also regained its freedom and most of the pain disappeared!
what happened?
Why did it explode?
Everyone present was a little confused. They looked at the young man lying limp on the ground, then turned their heads to look around. Who had just thrown something?
By chance, they saw Lin Qi clapping her hands. There was no expression on her calm face. She was too calm and seemed out of tune with the people around her.
"Lin Qi, did you kill the python?" Lao Gao swallowed hard, still in shock.
Lin Qi hummed calmly, and did not forget to remind the people present, "Your chicken ran away."
Not all of them ran away. The young man who was bitten by the snake was still holding a pheasant tightly in his hand. Even at the critical moment of his life, he did not let go.
It's a real-life example of 'giving up one's life for a bite to eat'.
"Well, it's okay, just run, as long as you are okay." Lao Gao came back to his senses, tried to stay calm, and walked towards the young man sitting in the python's corpse.
The pheasant was still thrashing in the young man's hands, and the young man seemed to have just come to his senses. He looked at the abrupt, headless python corpse, and then at his shoulder, where the blood had stopped flowing. He pulled open his sleeve and found that the wound was not big or deep, and the blood was still bright red.
"Captain, pythons are not poisonous, right?" the young man asked cautiously.
Lao Gao also saw the other person's wound and shook his head, "It's not poisonous. Apart from the wound, do you feel uncomfortable anywhere else?"
"It's good that it's not poisonous." The young man breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I don't feel uncomfortable anywhere." He was just scared.
He stood up, holding the pheasant, and walked quickly towards Lin Qi, then knelt down with a plop. "I can never repay you for saving my life. I will be your slave in the next life."
"No need." Lin Qi refused and took two steps to the side. She was not used to being knelt down by others.
"You don't have to work like a slave, so just take this chicken." The young man presented the pheasant with both hands. Although his heart was bleeding, it was worth it to exchange a pheasant for his life!
“No.” Lin Qi still refused. This man was unwilling to let go of the chicken until his death, which showed how strong his obsession with eating chicken was. She couldn’t bear to take it away.
"Don't be polite with me, please accept it." The young man said seriously. Seeing Lin Qi frown, he thought that she was carrying a backpack instead of a basket, and he seemed to understand something. He pulled the vines on the ground, tied the chicken's legs and wings, and handed it to Luo Cheng, "Brother, hold it for her."
Luo Cheng chuckled twice, "Okay, no problem."
Before leaving, the captain secretly told him not to let Lin Qi suffer any loss.
I saved a person and only got a chicken. It's clearly a huge loss!
No, not only the chicken, but also the python is theirs.
Lin Qi watched Luo Cheng happily put the pheasant into the backpack, opened her mouth, and then closed it.
Forget it, there is prey behind.
Because of the sudden appearance of the python, Lao Gao didn't dare to separate the team anymore, so he just stayed together with more than 40 people.
"You are really strong!" Lao Gao came to Lin Qi's side, with a look of admiration on his face. Now, he really believed that Lin Qi knew kung fu.
Lin Qi nodded, which was considered as an admission.
"When you see prey, do you not need to get close to it, just kill it with a stone from a distance?" Lao Gao asked again. At this time, Lao Gao was like a child seeing a master, with stars in his eyes.
"No." Lin Qi shook her head. "That kind of force requires a full-strength attack, which takes a lot of effort."
As Lin Qi spoke, she grabbed a vine beside her and rolled it in her hand. With her slender white hands, she slowly pulled out the leaves and small forks on the vine.
"What do you want this for?" Lao Gao asked curiously.
"Play." Supernatural powers invisible to the naked eye were being transmitted from Lin Qi's palm into the vines, and the ordinary vines were quietly changing inside.
No one present could have imagined that the vine in Lin Qi's hand had been transformed by supernatural powers and had become softer and tougher than metal wire.
Play?
Lao Gao had a complicated expression. It seemed that even though he was a master, he was still a child at heart and couldn't escape his playful nature.
Lao Gao was still thinking about how to convince Lin Qi to give up his playful mood and catch some prey for them first, but he saw Lin Qi pause and the vine in his hand flew out.
There was a crisp sound, and something chirped twice in the grass not far away, and then there was no movement.
Lin Qi's move was too sudden, and Lao Gao, who was closest to her, was frightened. It was not until Lin Qi retracted the vines that he asked in shock, "What is that?"
"I don't understand." Lin Qi shook her head.
Lao Gao glared, "You hit me if you don't understand?"
"I'll go take a look." Jian Yitong said, walking towards the bushes. Then he said with a complicated expression, "It's a fat rat."
mouse?
Others ran over to see.
Wow!
What a big mouse! It’s as big as a small rabbit!
Everyone swallowed their saliva. Such a big rat must be meat!
Jian Tongyi didn't ask Lin Qi whether she wanted it or not, and directly put the mouse into the basket on his back.
"You didn't even look at it, and you hit it with a whoosh!" Lao Gao said in shock.
Lin Qi said calmly, "I heard the sound."
"Determine location by listening to sound! There is actually such a legendary skill in the world!" Lao Gao exclaimed.
The others who were listening to their conversation were all shocked when they heard that Lin Qi accurately whipped the mouse just by listening to the sound.
It turns out that there really are such masters in the world!
Those who previously only paid attention to Lin Qi's beauty could not help looking at her with a frivolous and flippant look. But now that they have seen Lin Qi's skills, that disrespect has instantly disappeared, leaving only endless admiration.
Next, Lin Qi used the whip to beat the hares and pheasants, and even the sparrows in the sky were knocked down by her.
With this whip, she successfully turned everyone present into her fans.
"It's noon, shall we eat something first?" Lao Gao suggested.
Lin Qi had no objection, "Okay."
"It's just in front, it's more spacious there." Lao Gao pointed to the grass in front.
This place is very deep in the mountains and usually no one comes here.
So Lao Gao and the people from Shunliang Brigade didn’t know that there was a small stream not far from here.
The presence of water means no peace.
Lin Qi looked in the direction where the water vapor came from and frowned slightly.
She was still standing there, but the others had already rushed to the grass and sat down on the ground.
"I've been walking for a whole morning and my legs are going to be sore." Someone slapped his legs.
"I'm not too tired, but I was pretty scared by the python."
"I've learned a lot, and the trip is worth it. I can brag about it for many days."
"We haven't found any wild boars all morning. How about we make a fire, roast some meat, and lure the wild boars over here?"
"That's a good idea. With so many of us, we can definitely catch all those wild boars in one fell swoop by ambushing them!"
Lin Qi: “….”
You guys are probably looking for death!
