Zhang Lie kicked the black bear twice, but when he saw that it didn't move at all, he said excitedly: "It's so dead! Brother-in-law, you are so powerful, you can actually ejaculate into its mouth!"
"If you hadn't created such a good opportunity for me, I wouldn't have been able to shoot so accurately!"
Lin Xu smiled, and then said in admiration: "Brother Lie, you actually dare to fight a black bear with your bare hands, and you can even knock the charging black bear away! It's really amazing! I see those tiger fighting heroes
It may not be as good as you!"
"Ha ha......"
After hearing Lin Xu's compliment, Zhang Lie laughed embarrassedly, touched his bald head, and said, "I just have brute strength. I can't compare with someone like you who has ink in his belly!"
If we don’t have a crossbow, it would take a lot of effort to kill this black guy! Maybe we will still be injured!"
"Brother-in-law, I hunted this black bear. I really made a lot of money today!"
"Let's go back and make dad, Ruolan and the others happy too!"
After saying that, Zhang Lie grabbed the two front legs of the black bear and directly held it on his shoulders!
Lin Xu was shocked again!
This black bear is huge, covered in meat, weighing at least two to three hundred kilograms!
However, Zhang Lie put it on his shoulders, his face remained unchanged, his breathing was even, and he didn't even bend his waist much.
It doesn’t look effortless at all!
He had long heard that his brother-in-law was born with supernatural powers, and when he saw it today, he was indeed well-deserved!
...
This black blind man was so eye-catching that before the two of them entered the village, they were already surrounded by villagers who saw it, asking how they killed this black blind man!
Zhang Lie had already fallen in love with Lin Xu, who admired him, and was determined to help his brother-in-law clear his name as a "trash", so when he saw people, he said that this black bear was shot to death by his brother-in-law with an arrow, and the arrow was still in the bear's mouth.
It’s plugged in!
Although the Daning Dynasty valued literature over martial arts, in the countryside, few people studied. What the villagers respected the most were these warriors who could hunt tigers and bears and eliminate harm for the people!
Therefore, when the villagers heard this, they all looked at Lin Xu with admiration, gave thumbs up and praised her repeatedly, and exclaimed that Ruolan was so lucky to have married such a warrior!
Lin Xu understood his uncle's thoughts, so he didn't explain anything and accepted everyone's praise with a smile.
Although he has a strong heart and is not a person who cares about other people's opinions, compared with listening to the villagers calling him a trash when he heard the villagers praise him as a warrior, the feeling is definitely different from the heaven to the earth!
However, what made him even more gratified was that from now on, Ruolan would no longer have to be criticized or ridiculed because of himself in the village.
Back home, the old blacksmith and Ruolan were very happy to see that they had hunted a black bear!
Ruolan, in particular, was surprised and happy when her brother said that this black bear was shot to death by one of his officers with an arrow. She looked at Lin Xu with a look of admiration in her eyes!
What man doesn’t want to be worshiped by his wife?
Lin Xu was naturally very happy, so he walked over and gave Ruolan a slap on the head.
Two blushes immediately appeared on Ruolan's face.
...
Early the next morning, Lin Xu and Zhang Lie set out for the county town pushing a cart.
In addition to the black bear, there were seven or eight hares on the cart.
As for the pheasants they hunted in the past two days, Lin Xu kept them.
The food at home was so bad. Apart from multigrain porridge, there were only wild vegetables, and not even a hint of meat was found.
Although he also came from a poor family in his last life, he was, after all, a young man of the 21st century who was born under the red flag and grew up in the spring breeze. He had nothing to worry about eating and drinking.
In fact, hare is also a very good ingredient. Whether it is braised or stir-fried, it tastes very good!
It's a pity that the only way to cook food here is to boil it, and you don't even add much oil or salt, let alone other seasonings.
After the hare meat is boiled, it has a special smell, which is really unpalatable.
The pheasant is different. It is just boiled in water. Even without salt, it still tastes very delicious!
In addition, both his host and Ruolan's body bones are too weak, mainly caused by malnutrition. They must eat more meat and replenish their bodies.
The distance from the village to the county seat was actually only thirty or forty miles, but due to the rugged mountain roads and the need to pull a cart, it took them more than an hour to finally reach the county seat.
Zhang Lie is absolutely right, black bears are indeed very popular!
As soon as we entered the city, we were surrounded by several vendors who were collecting mountain goods.
After some haggling, they finally packaged up the black bear and the hares and sold them to one of the traders with the highest bid for eleven taels of silver.
This time, the tax was paid on a per-capita basis. Each of them needed to pay two hundred coins, which was eight hundred coins for four people, and one tael of silver could be exchanged for a copper coin, which was one thousand coins.
The tax issue has been completely resolved.
According to the current prices, one tael of silver can buy about two hundred kilograms of rice. It will be cheaper if you buy whole grains. If you save some food, the rest This chapter has been completed!
