Chapter 279, Diwozi
"My crossbow is very good, the steel mouth is good, where did you get it?" Yang Xiaomeng said while giving Jiang Yan the crossbow.
"I asked the workers to make it temporarily. I beg you if you like it. You can give it to me after we get home. He needs to have fun first. He has never played before! You need to teach him."
After listening to Jiang Yan's words, Yang Xiaomeng asked Jiang Yan in surprise: "No, why did I think of getting a crossbow when I've never played before? He thought I knew how to do it!"
"Maybe he thought that the noise of shooting in the mountains would be too loud and might scare away animals, so he thought of getting a crossbow."
"If you don't tell me, we scholars don't have good brains. His old man also has a crossbow. He always felt that he didn't have a good gun, so he didn't bring it."
After Yang Xiaomeng said that, he began to teach Jiang Yan how to use a crossbow. Since Jiang Yan had a foundation in shooting, it was quite easy to learn. In a short time, he basically mastered the skills of using a crossbow.
"I will shoot birds with a crossbow first, and then I will shoot other animals after I become proficient. I just need to shoot a few more times."
After walking for a while, the sharp-eyed Yang Xiaomeng saw a pheasant in the grass in the distance, so he gave Jiang Yan a leg kick. Then he pointed to the grass in front of him.
Jiang Yan looked in the direction his leg pointed and found the pheasant hiding in the grass.
As a result, Jiang Yan followed Yang Xiaomeng's hunting behavior and walked over cautiously, then raised the crossbow in his leg.
There was a sound of searching, the crossbow arrows were shot, and the pheasants in the grass in the distance fell to the ground.
Xu Damao, who was following Jiang Yan, cheered: "Boss, what a great arrow, I hit the target."
After he said that, he was ready to pick up the pheasant.
Suddenly, a slap in the face happened. The pheasant that had been hit just now flew up again and ran away into the distance.
Everyone who saw that scene was shocked.
Xu Damao pointed at the running pheasant and turned to Jiang Yan with a dull look on his face: "Boss, the pheasant I just shot is not dead! I think it ran away with the arrow, and its vitality is really strong."
At that time, Yang Xiaomeng, who was walking in front, said: "Then it shouldn't have been hit. If the arrow is hit, it won't be able to run far and it won't be able to fly."
After he said those words, he directly chased the pheasant in the direction it was running.
The pheasant with arrows in the distance was just like what Yang Xiaomeng said. It fluttered for a few times and never took off. Instead, it rolled and ran away into the distance.
Yang Xiaomeng strode over and caught the pheasant that was flapping. Then he picked up the still alive pheasant and twisted its neck. The pheasant stopped flapping again.
When Xu Damao saw the scene in Bu Nao, he shuddered involuntarily and looked at Yang Xiaomeng with a little dodge.
"Here, take it! I didn't expect that the pheasant I shot the first time was better than when he was a child." After Yang Xiaomeng said that, he handed the dead pheasant to Jiang Yan.
Jiang Yan took it, took the crossbow arrows from Dong Pheasant, and then handed the pheasant to Xu Damao who was following behind.
After shooting the pheasant for the first time, Jiang Yan also concluded something in his mind.
The moment he fired the crossbow, his legs shook slightly, so he missed the target and missed the target.
Sure enough, there is an essential difference between shooting fixed targets and shooting living animals.
Not to mention using crossbows, even if I use a gun to shoot living things, I guess I won't be able to perform to my level. That's due to psychological factors. It seems that I need to practice a lot!
From the first time he caught a prey, Jiang Yan acted as if he was cheating. Except for the first one that Yang Xiaomeng hit, all the other prey were caught by Jiang Yan, even the pheasants.
, hares and other small animals, Yang Xiaomeng said they were enough to eat, and I guess Jiang Yan would be able to catch more.
"Ouch! Oh my god! That's really tiring him out. Boss, can you give him a sip of my water?" Xu Damao, who was walking on the rocks for a temporary break, gasped for air and shook himself. He was already empty.
A kettle with a drop of water came out and asked Jiang Yan who was drinking water.
Jiang Yan heard Xu Damao's words and directly handed his kettle to poor Xu Damao.
"Da Mao, my bones are so weak! Look at me, I'm as skinny as a little chicken. I can't stand it after just walking a little way."
Hearing Yang Xiaomeng's words, Xu Damao took a sip of water and gasped and defended: "Brother Xiaomeng, did he use up all his energy on breastfeeding? Our physical fitness is not good, there is nothing we can do."
"I have to practice less, otherwise I stay there and follow his old man for a few months, and he will definitely train me very well."
After hearing what Yang Xiaomeng said, Xu Damao's face turned green. He begged himself to follow that old man. He probably didn't have enough practice, so he was tired to death.
"Farewell, Brother Xiao Meng, I won't spare him! The boss can't live without him, right or wrong, boss."
Hearing Xu Damao's almost begging words, Jiang Yan said directly: "Brother Meng, forget it! He just lies down and won't walk. He can't bear the pain, so don't bother the old man."
After he said that, he turned to Xu Damao and said, "Bu Nao Damao, I really need to practice. Then I can run with him every morning! I won't have to sleep in from now on."
"It's really impossible if I don't practice. Please help me, Xiao Wei, I guess I won't even be able to walk there."
Not long after entering the mountain, almost all the things that Xu Damao was carrying on his back were on Wei Xiaojun's body, and Wei Xiaojun was still breathing and panting. Without Xu Damao's drag, they could have gone further.
"Da Mao, let's go." Jiang Yan kicked Xu Damao who was pretending to be a dead dog.
The place where Yang Xiaomeng took Jiang Yan and the others went was a den built near mountains and rivers. It was usually used as a resting place for hunters in the morning. The den was not big, just about the size of an ordinary house.
Dong Jiangyan and the four of them had enough sleep.
To prevent wild animals from entering in the morning, the front door of Diwozi is not big, and only one person can pass through it at a time.
In front of the cave, hunters who often stay in the mountains built a stone wall with stones. There was a house made of stones against the stone wall. The house was not big, only about an square meter. It was very short and very small.
It was less than one person tall, and the most surprising thing was that there was a lot of soot on the floor of the house, and there were rows of wooden bars as thick as a child's legs and arms.
Jiang Yan took a curious look and went to Diwozi.
The underground door can also be a simple door made of tree trunks.
But there was no one living in that nest for too long. Jiang Yan and the others spent a long time cleaning it.
After cleaning, Yang Xiaomeng led them to cut a lot of weeds with an engineering shovel and put them in the nest, which could be used as a bed in the morning.
Jiang Yan took out the pot and teapot from his backpack.
"That thing is so convenient! Why didn't he think of getting a pot and kettle like that?"
Yang Xiaomeng took the portable pot and kettle that Jiang Yan took out and looked at them repeatedly, praising them constantly.
Jiang Yan sorted out the prey he would catch tomorrow and asked Yang Xiaomeng.
"Brother Xiao Meng, is there a stream nearby? He's going to pick up the prey."
"Over there, just around the corner, the stream is very sweet."
After hearing what Yang Xiaomeng said, Jiang Yan took Xu Damao and carried the prey to the stream.
Jiang Yan was originally wondering why he didn't hear the sound of water. When he got closer, he saw that the stream was very small, about the size of a bowl, and the water flow was very fast.
Jiang Yan took some from the water bottle and took a sip. The water was really as sweet as Yang Xiaomeng said.
