Chapter 60 Black Wolf Cub
"I'll try." Zhang Dashuan admitted that he had strong strength, and was prepared to win. He stepped forward and picked up the strong bow in Qin Mian's hands, using all his strength, he calmly shook his head, "No."
Lei Xianglee and Wu Di curiously tried it, but they couldn't do it either, as they admired Lei Tia's arm strength.
"See?" Qin Mian proudly said as he straightened his back once again.
Lei Xianglee then handed over his bow and arrow, "Sister-in-law, do you want to use mine?" Lei Tia's strong bow could kill wild boars, bears, tigers and other big guys. A small bow like Lei Tia could only shoot at small things like wild chickens and wild rabbits.
Lei Tia looked at him, pushed his hand back, and said to Qin Mian: "I'll bring you here again after you learn it."
Qin Mian happily nodded, "Alright."
As they continued to walk up the mountain, they suddenly heard a rustling sound, as if it was something big. Lei Tia and Zhang Dashuan both raised their bows and arrows vigilantly.
The trees ahead of them parted, and a young man in grey came out, holding a bow in his hand. He froze when he saw them.
He moved to the side, and another young man appeared behind him. He was also carrying a bow and arrows, wore a white hunting suit, had fox fur wrapped around his collar, had white jade pendants hanging from his waist from the corners of his clothes.
Behind him was a man with a square face, dressed in the same clothes as the first person who came out. It was obvious that the two men in gray were his followers.
The two of them had never met before. They only looked at each other for a moment before passing by each other.
However, Qin Mian suddenly heard a mournful and angry wuu sound from the basket of the last person. For some unknown reason, he felt a heavy feeling in his heart. That basket must be their prey. Wasn't the law of the jungle a natural law?
"What's wrong?" Lei Tia held his hand.
Qin Mian shook his head: "Nothing."
At this moment, the sound of a heavy object landing on the ground sounded out from behind him. Qin Mian turned around and saw a black prey lying on the ground with its four limbs and mouth entangled by ropes, struggling desperately. It turned out that the prey was not willing to be arrested. Even though it was tied up like this, it still jumped out of the basket!
The white-clothed gongzi turned around and was stu
ed. He clapped his hands and smiled, "Alright! The more forceful it is, the more it will be tamed, and the more it will feel like accomplishment! "
The square-faced follower quickly went to catch the prey. That thing twisted its body again and turned its head. It stared at Qin Mian as if it knew him.
Qin Mian looked carefully and was shocked. The prey was a dog with black fur all over its body. In the middle of its two ears, there was a tuft of white fur that looked like a white dot. It was actually exactly the same as the black dog he had saved in his previous life! The only difference was that this dog was smaller than the previous one, only slightly bigger than an adult cat.
After a moment of surprise, he rushed over and picked up the dog. The dog was also curious. Not only was it not afraid of him, it was twisting its body and moving towards him. Qin Mian picked it up. Once it reached his arms, the black dog strangely quieted down, using its cold eyes to stare at the three of them.
For a moment, everyone was stu
ed.
The square-faced retainer was the first to react, reprimanding loudly, "What are you trying to do?"
Lei Tia walked over to Qin Mian's side and wrapped her arms around his shoulders, and looked at him coldly.
Although Zhang Dashuan, Lei Xianglee and Wu Di felt that this matter was unfathomable, they were not afraid. They walked over together and stood together with Qin Mian and Lei Tia.
The smile on the man in white slowly disappeared as he stared at Qin Mian unkindly.
Qin Mian also knew that this matter was not easy to handle, but he couldn't let go of the black dog. He looked at the white clothed man apologetically, and said sincerely, "Sir, I was rude. But as you can see, the dog knows me. To be honest, it had saved my life. I am willing to pay for it, so Young Master can name a price. "
The white-clothed man's face was cold and grim. He squinted his eyes and laughed in disdain, not saying a word.
The square-faced retainer snorted coldly, "Does our young master look like someone who needs money? Put it down! Otherwise, don't blame us for being impolite. "
"I can naturally tell that Young Master isn't lacking in money, but this dog, Young Master Yu, is just a prey. We are willing to fight a few more prey to exchange with Young Master for this one.
Another follower rolled his eyes and said impatiently: "What do you know about this country bumpkin? This thing is extremely clever. Our Young Master chased it for three whole days before capturing it. None of the other prey could compare to it. Come on, I'm not talking to you anymore, hurry up and put it down. "
The square-faced retainer glared at him and said fiercely: "Why aren't you letting it go? Do you really want us to make a move? "
Seeing that the situation was bad, Zhang Dashuan advised in a low voice, "These people are definitely not simple, we ordinary citizens ca
ot afford to offend them."
Qin Mian's heart sank, he had no idea what to do for the moment, and looked at Lei Tia helplessly.
Lei Tia gave him a comforting look and pinched his shoulder a few times with his right palm before releasing him. Then, he took out a small green-colored porcelain bottle and walked towards the white-clothed man.
The white-clothed man had been sizing up this scarred man. His intuition told him that this man was not simple.
"I wonder if Your Excellency has heard of the Clear Scourge Pill?" Lei Tia asked indifferently.
The white-clothed man who was originally leaning against the tree trunk heard what was said and his expression changed slightly. He stood up straight with suspicion in his eyes. Is there really such a thing in the world? "
Qin Mian was shocked, and immediately walked over and pulled on Lei Tia's sleeves, saying in a low voice: "Let's think of another way."
Lei Tia indicated with his eyes for him to calm down and lightly said: "That's right. "Use this pill to exchange for your prey."
"Young master, be careful not to fall for it." The two attendants hurriedly reminded him. How could a country bumpkin have such a miraculous pill?
The man in white hesitated. "How do I know this pill is real?"
Lei Tia handed the porcelain bottle over to him, "This will depend on your courage and insight."
When the white-clothed man saw the porcelain bottle, his expression changed slightly. This porcelain bottle was not made of ordinary porcelain, but high quality sky jade. This kind of porcelain was not easy to make, it could measure poison, and it was extremely expensive. Just a small porcelain bottle like this was worth at least five hundred taels of silver. It was impossible for such a porcelain bottle to be used to store a fake medicinal pill. Taking a step back, even if the pill inside was fake, trading a prey for five hundred taels of silver worth of porcelain wouldn't be a loss.
The white clothed man stared at Lei Tia for a long time, but Lei Tia remained unperturbed.
The white clothed man hesitated for a moment before he kept the bottle, "The prey is yours now." Then he left in a hurry. He needed to get someone who was an expert to examine the pill in the bottle as soon as possible.
The two lackeys looked at each other in surprise as they quickly followed.
"Young Master, wait for us!"
The three of them quickly disappeared into the forest.
With Zhang Dashuan and the other two outsiders present, it wouldn't be good for Qin Mian to ask them about the Savage Pellet, so he could only endure his curiosity and untie the rope on the little black dog.
The little black dog whimpered at him and lay limply on the ground, panting slightly.
Qin Mian could see its weakness, so he took out the water bag from the basket and fed it some water.
Wu Di squatted at the side and asked curiously: "Sister-in-law, did it really save you?"
"Mn," Qin Mian said. "I saved this dog before, and this dog also saved me." He had always believed that his rebirth was inextricably linked to the space that Black Dog had given him. He wasn't sure if this dog was the same dog from his previous life, but since he had seen it, it was fated that he would meet it. He couldn't stand by and watch.
"This is a wolf." Lei Tia looked at his wife in confusion. The daughter-in-law said he did not remember the past, but remembered the wolf. Yes, there was one more suspicious point on his wife.
"Huh?" Qin Mian was flabbergasted, "It's really a wolf?"
Lei Tia nodded.
Zhang Dashuan and the other two were also dumbstruck, looking at the little thing that was obediently drinking the water in Qin Mian's palm, they couldn't believe that it was a wolf. Wolves had always been a cruel and bloodthirsty beast in their hearts.
The little black wolf drank the water that was mixed with the Spirit Spring Water and stood up after a while.
Qin Mian rubbed its head, "Alright, I'm fine, go. "Don't get caught again."
The little black wolf rubbed itself against his leg and ran into the grass, disappearing without a trace.
Lei Xianglee smiled bitterly and said to Qin Mian: "Sister-in-law, you are really brave. When you fed the water earlier, you weren't afraid that he would bite you."
"That's right, I was also shocked." Wu Di agreed.
Lei Tia's expression remained indifferent, and he remained silent. If that wolf dared to bite, he naturally had a way to stop it.
Qin Mian smiled slightly, "I always felt that there were some animals that had intelligence, and could sense human kindness and malice."
"How amazing." Zhang Dashuan stroked his chin, "When I was young, I heard many stories about wild wolves that went down the mountain to eat babies. I never expected that wild wolves could also have human nature."
The few of them sighed, and Zhang Dashuan said: "Alright, let's continue hunting."
They also found four wild chickens and a wild boar that weighed almost a hundred pounds. Zhang Dashuan and the other two's arrows were all useless, but Lei Tia's strong bow had managed to shoot the wild boar down and it died.
Qin Mian was extremely happy, "For the new year, you don't have to spend money to buy pork."
Zhang Dashuan quickly said: "I heard that wild boar meat is more delicious than pork, Tia, how about selling some to me?"
"I'll buy some too." Wu Di said.
Qin Mian and Lei Tia looked at each other, and expressed: "Even though this wild boar was hunted by Lei Tia, it was all thanks to the three of you blocking by the side. Don't say you don't want to buy, you two each get ten catties of meat. Fourth Younger Brother will also take ten kilograms to let Father and Mother have a taste. "
Zhang Dashuan and the other two knew that he and Lei Tia were not petty people, and happily accepted their kind words.
"Is it noon?" Lei Xianglee looked at the sky.
Qin Mian said to Lei Tia: "Let's roast some food on the mountain." He remembered the roasted chicken leg that Lei Tia gave him a long time ago.
Lei Tia could be said to be obedient to him without any objections.
"We're not in a hurry to go back either." Zhang Dashuan said, "Let's do it together."
Lei Xianglee and Wu Di did not object.
The few of them followed Lei Tia to a small stream. Lei Tia and Zhang Dashuan went to the water's edge to kill chickens. Qin Mian, Lei Xianglee and Wu Di stayed nearby to pick up firewood.
After igniting the fire, Lei Tia broke off a branch and ski
ed it, then roasted the wild chicken. He took out a bag of seasonings from his chest pocket and smeared it on the branch with a small brush. Ever since Qin Mian invented the hotpot seasonings, he always brought along a small bag with him when he went hunting.
Zhang Dashuan and the other two naturally split up some of them.
Lei Tia was the most experienced one, he roasted the wild chicken first and gave the whole one to Qin Mian, before roasting the second one.
Qin Mian tore a piece of chicken leg and passed it to him, hugging the whole wild chicken and giving it to him to gnaw on. The wild chicken with the seasoning was even more fresh and fragrant. It took a bite and wished that it could swallow its own tongue.
Rustling sounds came from behind them. The little black wolf that they had met before trod on its dead leaves and ran over to stand in front of Qin Mian.
Qin Mian laughed and used a small dagger to cut off the chicken head, neck and butt, then threw them to it.
The little black wolf swallowed it in a few bites, then sat down beside Qin Mian quietly. It wagged its tail from time to time, looking like a dog again.
Qin Mian, Zhang Dashuan, Lei Xianglee and Wu Di were almost done eating. Lei Tia's wild chicken finally finished roasting and asked Qin Mian in a low voice, "Are you full?"
Qin Mian nodded, "I'm too full."
Lei Tia cut the roasted chicken into half and threw half to the little black wolf.
The little black wolf glanced at him and unceremoniously lowered its head to bite him.
Zhang Dashuan, Lei Xianglee and Wu Di all vaguely understood why Lei Tia had done this as they all looked towards Qin Mian.
Qin Mian acted as if nothing had happened and quietly pinched his ears.
