Chapter 214 Winter Hunt Mobilization Meeting
Chapter 214 Winter Hunt Mobilization Meeting
Three days later, Liu Jingxue came to the hunter's house as promised to pick up her customized bow and arrow.
"Liu Zhiqing is here. I have made your bow. See if you like it."
After Uncle Ji finished speaking, he went into the inner room and took out a bow and a quiver filled with a lot of arrows.
Handing the bow and arrow to Liu Jingxue, Uncle Ji said, "Try it out and see if it works well."
Liu Jingxue tried to pull the bow, but she didn't dare to use too much force at once, for fear of accidentally breaking the bow, so she could only increase her strength little by little.
She did not use any spiritual power, but gradually increased her strength to 30%; there was no problem with the bowstring. When she used 40% of her strength, she felt a creaking sound from the bow.
He quickly gathered his strength and covered the bow and bowstring, forming a protective film, and the creaking sound disappeared.
She gradually increased her strength until she had used 60% of her strength, and then she stopped trying.
If he continued to use more force, the bow would definitely break even with the protection of spiritual energy.
Without the protection of spiritual energy, being able to withstand 30% of one's own strength is already very good.
Uncle Ji really took some effort, and the materials he prepared for himself were indeed very good.
Uncle Ji was watching from the side and was secretly amazed.
He also saw that Liu Zhiqing had not tried her best. It seemed that the strength she showed was not all she had.
But he also understood, after all, no matter who it is, they will keep some cards for themselves.
If she used all her strength on this bow she made, she was afraid that it would not be able to withstand it.
After all, he also heard the creaking sound before.
He shook his head and smiled bitterly, "I have already used the best mulberry wood, ox horns, and ox tendons that I could find here, but I didn't expect it was still not enough.
This bow still cannot bring out your full strength.
I was the one who boasted. "
Seeing that her performance had frustrated Uncle Ji, Liu Jingxue quickly consoled him, "Uncle Ji, please don't underestimate yourself.
You make a good bow, you are just limited by the material.
If there were better materials, the bow you made would definitely allow me to use my full strength."
"But this is enough for now, we are just going hunting, and it's fine as long as we can shoot the prey.
It's not like we're going to compete, so we have to give it our all to win."
When Uncle Ji heard this, he realized that it was true. He just didn't have the right materials. If he had better materials, he could definitely make a better bow.
Thinking of this, he swept away his lost mood and said, "Liu Zhiqing, you should get familiar with the bow and arrow in the next two days.
Once the captain has made all the arrangements, we can go into the mountains."
"OK.
Uncle Ji, how much is this bow and arrow? "
"This bow and arrow is made of high-quality materials, so it's quite expensive. It costs five dollars."
Liu Jingxue took out five yuan from her pocket and handed it to Uncle Ji, "Uncle Ji, thank you very much."
After getting the bow and arrow back, Liu Jingxue practiced in the space.
My accuracy was not good enough at the beginning, but after practicing for a while, I made rapid progress.
Without using spiritual power, he can hit the target nine out of ten times.
If it is assisted by spiritual power, it will never fail.
“With the current level, there is no problem going up the mountain to hunt.
By then, I can kill them instantly from a distance, and the prey won’t have a chance to get close.”
"If you run out of arrows, use stones."
Although Liu Jingxue has been focusing on cultivation these days, she has also not neglected ancient martial arts.
He has mastered the skills of using hidden weapons and can hit whatever he points at.
With her strength, if she used her spiritual power to help her throw the stone, it would be easy to kill the prey.
And that way there will be no bleeding and no attraction of other prey.
However, that method can only be used when hunting alone, or against small animals.
If you encounter a large animal, using this method to kill it is bound to be a bit shocking.
When hunting in the mountains, if you encounter a group of prey and don't have enough arrows, or don't have time to retrieve the arrows, just use stones to hit them.
The villagers all knew that he was strong, and he had killed the wild boar with his fists last time. They wouldn't be surprised if he did it again.
That day, the team leader blew the assembly whistle and used a loudspeaker to call the villagers to a meeting.
Liu Jingxue understood that this must be about going into the mountains to hunt.
Sure enough, after everyone arrived, the captain began to speak.
"Coming here this time, I believe everyone knows that it is appropriate.
It started snowing that day.
Our production team is surrounded by mountains on three sides. If it snows and there is no food in the mountains, the animals in the mountains may come down the mountain and cause trouble.
For the safety of the village, we have to send people into the mountains to check the surrounding forests and eliminate any animals that might come down the mountain and cause harm."
“This time, the hunting team will still be led by the old hunter, along with the militia.
Other able-bodied laborers in the village volunteered to sign up.
The prey brought back was still divided according to the old rules, with those who went into the mountains first getting the most.
The rest will be distributed among the families.”
"That's all I have to say," said the captain.
Someone in the audience shouted, "Captain, I want to sign up."
“Those who want to sign up can go to the old hunter to sign up after the meeting, since he is the leader of the team.
He can only join the hunting team after permission.
If you are usually unruly and disobedient, please be more disciplined and don’t sign up, lest you behave yourself and cause trouble when you get in, thus harming everyone.
Last year, when we were hunting in our village, something went wrong because someone disobeyed instructions and acted recklessly.
Everyone should learn from the lesson, and those who don't have the ability should not go over and cause trouble." The captain repeatedly warned.
The captain added, "Liu Jingxue and Liu Zhiqing will also join this hunt."
In the crowd below the stage, a group of educated youth stood together.
After these days of running around, all the vegetables in the village were sold out, and they even sold a lot of vegetables from other villages.
Except for Xia Lan and Zhang Yingchun who did not sign up, and Li Jie, Fang Dong and Wang Lihua who fell ill later, everyone else at the educated youth center earned a lot of food or money this time.
Zheng Jianmin and Zhou Wenbing were particularly lucky. They sold the most vegetables and made quite a lot of money.
Now that there are no vegetables to sell, the people at the educated youth site no longer run to the town early in the morning and come back late every day as before. Today they all came together for the meeting.
Of course, except Li Jie.
Because he had been ill for some time, he was unable to sell vegetables and could not go into the mountains to search. In the days after he recovered from his illness, he was hardly seen by other people at the educated youth site.
Except for coming back to sleep at night, he is nowhere to be seen at other times.
The other old educated youth were fine with the idea of going into the mountains to hunt, but the newcomers were more interested.
The two female educated youth knew that it had nothing to do with them and did not think much about it. They were just curious about the old educated youth next to them dressing up for hunting.
Zhang Yingchun pulled Qin Fang and said, "Sister Qin Fang, last year the hunting team went into the mountains and hunted a lot of things."
“There were so many things, I can’t remember them clearly.
I only remember that we distributed meat to the educated youth according to the number of people, and we also distributed a lot of meat, about 20 to 30 kilograms of meat in total."
Xia Lan interjected, “It’s only divided per person.
Those who participated in the hunt received even more, at least ten kilograms each.
I remember that last year Zhou Zhiqing joined the hunting team and got a lot of meat, which he cured and sent back home.
