On the official road from south to north, a row of bicycle frames came in a mighty manner.
The carriage was filled with tributes to King Wei, especially gold jewelry.
Almost no one in the world doesn't understand Wei Cheng's preferences. Gold, jade, pearls and agate all come together in one place.
At this time, there are only a few days before the end of the year, and convoys like this can be encountered several times every day.
The bread stall at the city gate.
Zhang Fei and his second brother Guan Yu were sitting opposite each other. When they saw the passing motorcade, they just glanced at it and continued the topic.
"I heard that my eldest brother's new sister-in-law is pregnant. Do you think we should send her some congratulatory gifts?"
When Guan Yu heard this, he nodded with a smile and said, "Of course."
Zhang Fei took a few mouthfuls of noodle soup and said: "Then let me prepare it. It just so happens that I got a lot of good things as a year-end reward this time. I don't need those things by myself, so I gave them all to my eldest brother."
Guan Yu nodded slightly, glanced at Zhang Fei, and said with a smile: "Don't you think about marrying a wife and having children?"
Zhang Fei was startled when he heard this, his cheeks were visibly red with embarrassment, and he waved his hands repeatedly, "No hurry, no hurry, I'm not in a hurry."
Guan Yu said angrily: "After the New Year, you will be twenty-one, right? If you can't find the girl you like, why not ask your second brother to be a matchmaker for you?"
Zhang Fei was stunned and asked curiously: "Which girl is the second brother talking about?"
Guan Yu put down Kuaizi and said seriously: "The daughter of King Liang's younger brother, who is twenty-eight years old, is a good match for you as your wife."
Zhang Fei's expression changed, and he frowned and said, "Is this the second brother's idea, or is it Prince Liang's idea?"
Seeing the fear on Zhang Fei's face, Guan Yu hurriedly explained: "Third brother, don't worry, this matter is not what you think, and King Liang has not interfered with the ambitions of the Imperial Knights. To tell you the truth, this woman originally wanted to betrothed to you as my brother."
, It’s just that you understand my brother’s feelings.”
Hearing this, Zhang Fei secretly breathed a sigh of relief, then shook his head and said: "Second brother, it's time for you to let it go. Don't risk your good life for a Liniang. It's not worth it. As for marrying a wife, I
I have my own plan."
Guan Yu lost his appetite in an instant as he talked about his thoughts. After a long silence, he stood up and said, "It's almost time. Let's go hunting."
Seeing this, Zhang Fei quickly finished the noodles in the bowl, paid the money, picked up his bow and arrow and followed.
It was the twelfth lunar month of winter, and there were many wild animals out in the mountains and forests looking for food. The two brothers were very bored, so they thought of this pastime.
Thirty miles south of Luoyang City, there is a good place for hunting.
There is also a farm stretching for dozens of miles here, which is one of the royal properties and mainly grows potatoes and sweet potatoes.
Not long ago, Tian Feng issued an announcement calling on brave hunters from the countryside to help drive away wild beasts, attracting many soldiers to participate.
Guan and Zhang also came here after reading the notice. Unlike the others, they were not chasing rewards, but just having fun.
When the two arrived, there were already many traces of hunters in the mountain forest, and the thick snow was covered with various footprints.
Zhang Fei pointed to a hilltop in the distance and said: "Second brother, let's take that hilltop as the end point and return here in two hours to see who can hunt the biggest prey. How about that?"
Guan Yu raised his eyes and said with a smile: "Let's compete. The loser will have a drink tonight."
"Haha, then I have to win." Zhang Fei said, pointing to the path on the right, "I'm going west."
Guan Yu nodded slightly and walked straight towards the east path.
This place is on the outskirts of the mountain forest, very close to the farm, and hunters can be seen coming in and out from time to time.
Seeing that most of them had gained a lot, Guan Yu suddenly felt that he had chosen the right path, and his third brother made a reservation for the wine tonight.
After walking two miles deeper into the forest, I suddenly saw a nest of wild boars looking for food on the snow ahead.
Guan Yu hurriedly concealed his figure, and at the same time took off his bow and arrow and aimed at the leading sow at the front. Judging from the head, it weighed three to five hundred kilograms less.
Bow and arrow.
Just when Guan Yu was about to shoot the sharp arrow in his hand, the wild boar was so alert that it screamed and ran away with its cubs.
Guan Yu was stunned for a moment, and when he aimed again, he had missed the best range, which made him quite annoyed.
He stood up and looked around, trying to find out the source of the wild boar's alarm.
I saw a man covered in blood rolling down a steep slope on the left front, and on the steep slope, stood a bear.
When Guan Yu saw this scene, he quickly ran towards the man.
At the same time, he bent his bow and nocked an arrow, and shot it towards the bear, trying to divert the bear's attention.
"Hey, you beasts don't have to be so arrogant!" Guan Yu shot three arrows in a row, and at the same time used his voice to attract Xiong Yan's attention.
The man covered in blood turned his head with difficulty and saw someone coming to save him despite the danger. He was moved and at the same time felt a pinch for this red-faced man.
He went hunting in the mountains with two friends, and did not want to accidentally break into the tree hole where bear bears hibernated. One of his friends was shot to death on the spot, and the other friend was also seriously injured. In order to save his friends, he had to lure the bear away alone.
, and the price was being injured by Xiong Zhen.
He had just fallen down the steep slope and was already in despair. He didn't expect to be rescued by a hero.
At this time, Guan Yu had already run up to him, looked at Xiong Zhi sliding down the steep slope, and shouted to the bloody man: "Hero, run away quickly."
While speaking, he shot another arrow at Xiong Zhen. This arrow aimed at Xiong Zhen's eyes and stabbed it in firmly.
The bear whined in pain and finally shifted its attack target to Guan Yu, giving the man a chance to breathe.
Guan Yu stopped in a hurry. Although he was extremely brave, he felt a little scared when faced with a bear that could even shoot away a tiger.
Especially this bear who had one of his eyes blinded by him and ran towards him like crazy.
"My dear, run away, leave me alone!" When the man covered in blood saw this, he shouted with his last breath of strength.
Guan Yu glanced at the man and felt warm in his heart. Fortunately, he didn't save a white-eyed wolf. He could stand up at this time and prove that this man was worth saving.
Then what else is there to say!
Guan Yu shot several arrows in a row until his quiver was empty, then he pulled out the short knife from his waist and planned to fight in close combat.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! And the bear was hit by three arrows one after another. The arrows could barely break through the thick bear skin, but could not cause fatal damage to the bear.
"Bah!"
Guan Yu did not retreat but advanced, facing Xiong Zhen's huge body flying towards him. He dodged sideways, and at the same time slashed Xiong Zhen's other eye with the short knife in his hand.
Unfortunately, the knife only hurt Xiong Zhen's cheek, which further aroused Xiong Zhen's anger.
With a roar, Xiong Zhen stood up and rushed towards Guan Yu with his hands spread out, intending to suppress Guan Yu with the weight of his body.
However, Guan Yu reacted faster and rolled on the ground, narrowly escaping Xiong Yan's attack.
Seeing that Xiong Zhen was lying on the snow and unable to get up for a while, he jumped directly on Xiong Zhen's back and stabbed the thick bear skin several times with the short knife in his hand.
The last knife stabbed directly into Xiong Zhen's spine. Guan Yu only felt the knife stabbing into the stone. Under the strong reaction force, his little finger collided with the knife grid, making the sound of bone displacement.
At this time, Xiong Zhen was in pain and turned over with great strength, throwing Guan Yu off his body.
Guan Yu rolled around on the snow several times and found that not only was his little finger broken, but the bone had also penetrated the muscles and skin and was exposed.
"This damn beast has such hard bones..."
"hold head high!"
Without waiting for Guan Yu to react, Xiong Zhen attacked again, this time with obvious madness. When he roared, a large amount of blood spurted out from his mouth...
Just when Guan Yu felt desperate.
Xiong Zhen took two steps forward, and then fell directly to the ground, holding down most of Guan Yu's body.
Guan Yu looked at the bear's head pressed against his chest and smelled the stench and blood emanating from Xiong Zhi's mouth. It took him a long time to realize that the random stab he just made must have injured Xiong Zhi's fatal part, which resulted in the beast's death.
's life.
After twisting his body and crawling out of the bear's oppression, Guan Yu rested against a big tree and panted heavily.
Not far away, a man saw Guan Yu killing Xiong Zhen with one sword. He struggled to stand up and approached Guan Yu with staggering steps.
Guan Yu looked up.
The man clasped his fists in his hands, knelt down on one knee, and said solemnly: "Zhou Cang, Guanxi, I would like to thank my benefactor for saving his life. From now on, Zhou's life belongs to his benefactor, and he will go through fire and water without hesitation."
