Start practicing archery

Chapter 9 Hunter
The dinner table.

Sister Lan was in high spirits because of the happy event. For the first time ever, she picked up two pieces of rabbit meat with her chopsticks.

Everyone would be happy if they could pay all the taxes and get rid of the bullies.

"Brother Shi."

She looked at her man with admiration: "Qin must have heard of your abilities and doesn't dare to mess with us. You are really amazing."

He can even shoot wild boars to death, no wonder she always thinks Shi Ge'er is very strong!

After dinner, Gu Xinlan sat by the bed waiting as usual, but the other party, contrary to his usual behavior, did not come into the room for a long time.

She drew aside the curtain and saw Chen Sanshi sitting under the candlelight, reading a book attentively.

"Don't you want to rest early today?"

Gu Xinlan was a little disappointed, but she was still very well behaved and didn't disturb him, and went to bed first.

[Skill: Reading (beginner)]

[Progress: (120/300)]

【Effect: Refreshing, photographic memory】

Chen Sanshi gently closed the book, and after making sure that Lan Jie'er was asleep, he put a kitchen knife on his waist, slung a longbow behind him, tiptoed out of the house and blended into the night.

……

Brothel.

"Uncle, just stay here for the night. Why would you go back?"

"Go away, Grandpa, I have things to do!"

Qin Xiong pushed away the prostitute who tried to keep him and staggered out of the brothel.

The price of staying overnight has tripled, and he is not stupid.

The money at home cannot be wasted and must be saved for my younger brother as a gift.

He lost his parents at a young age and raised his younger brother by selling pancakes. Later, he became famous and saved money to send his younger brother to the best Tianyuan Martial Arts School in Poyang County.

But practicing martial arts is really too expensive.

Not to mention the registration fee, apprenticeship fee, and medicine fee, if you want to get the true teachings, it will be another huge expense.

The old masters in the county's martial arts school basically only pass on their martial arts to their own sons or apprentices, and outsiders can't learn the real skills at all.

His younger brother is no exception.

I have been practicing martial arts for more than three years, but I still haven't learned the complete skills.

Fortunately, my younger brother is close to the young master. That guy is a sex maniac. If we bring more beautiful women over to him, maybe there is hope of getting the true teachings.

"By the way, the girl surnamed Gu is really pretty!"

"That look doesn't look like she came from the countryside at all."

"What a pity, what a pity!"

Qin Xiong felt aggrieved whenever he thought about this matter.

He even wanted to apologize to Mr. Chen.

But this is only temporary.

When his brother gets around to it, what’s a hunter to him?
No matter how powerful you are, can you be more powerful than someone who practices martial arts?

When the time comes, I will take this opportunity to let my brother kill Chen on the mountain, and I can even keep the girl in his family for myself to enjoy!
"Hahaha!"

Thinking of the young lady's millstone-like buttocks, Qin Xiong couldn't help laughing out loud.

"call--"

A gust of cold wind blew by, sobering him up a lot.

Looking around, I realized that I had walked out of the city without realizing it. It was pitch black all around, with the occasional crows cawing in the distance, making the night even quieter.

"Oh, I'm getting more and more timid!"

Unexpectedly, Qin Xiong felt spooky today, as if someone was following him from behind.

He smiled at himself and was about to go home when suddenly another gust of wind blew from behind him.

The wind was very thin and sharp, blowing directly on the back of my head, making me feel cold to the bone.

This "wind" penetrated into the back of the head and came out from the top of the head, just like a horn growing on the forehead.

Qin Xiong fell straight down and there was no movement anymore.

……

“It’s not enough!”

Chen Sanshi came out from the woods in the distance and went forward to check the body.

When people who practice martial arts fight, they use swords and knives to block the way and fight with their bodies.

He just pulled the bowstring from a distance and everything was over. He didn't even use the kitchen knife he brought. The process was so fast that Qin died very easily.

"Forget it, who makes me kind-hearted?"

Chen Sanshi found about three taels of silver from the corpse.

"Is that all?" "This fellow is a nuisance to the village. He earns at least several dozen taels of silver every year. Where did the money go?"

"His brother's martial arts training costs so much money?"

After putting the silver in his pocket, he began to think about how to deal with the body.

There are arrow wounds on the body, so we definitely can't leave it here.

There are a limited number of hunters within a radius of several dozen miles.

If you cut off the head alone, blood will get all over the body, which will be even more difficult to deal with.

"Just throw it up the mountain!"

Chen Sanshi carried the body.

With his light body, carrying the dead body did not slow him down at all.

In just one hour, he arrived at Erchong Mountain, dumped the body in a hidden jungle, and then returned to his home in Yanbian Village before dawn.

Lying down next to the sleeping Lan Jie'er, Chen Sanshi let out a long sigh.

"I have helped my fellow villagers get rid of a threat!"

"I just don't know if his brother will come to visit."

"I have to learn martial arts as soon as possible!"

He has no regrets.

Considering Qin Xiong's character, an apology is only temporary. When his brother gains power in the future, he will definitely make it up to him double.

Instead of sitting there and waiting, it’s better to strike first.

……

The next morning, the rooster crowed at dawn.

Chen Sanshi got up early as usual to practice archery.

After mastering archery, the speed at which your proficiency increases drops sharply.

Because the bow is too light.

He can now draw a stone bow, and the four-force bow has no training effect at all.

"Heavy bows are hard to make."

"Even martial arts schools dare not keep it privately, otherwise it will be regarded as treason."

"In addition to needing a heavy bow, it's time to put martial arts training on the agenda."

"..."

Chen Sanshi was silently thinking about what to do next, while Gu Xinlan invited him to have breakfast.

"Dang Dang Dang——"

He sat down absentmindedly, and just picked up the steamed bun when the sound of gongs and scolding rang out in the village.

Government!

Chen Sanshi's heart trembled, but he quickly calmed down.

"It can't be because of Qin Xiong's incident. He only died one night."

"He doesn't deserve such a big scene. Something else must have happened."

really.

The people from the county police station shouted at the top of their lungs, calling out everyone in the village to announce a big event.

Some barbarian warriors sneaked into Poyang County and assassinated the Poyang County magistrate.

The whole village was in an uproar.

The people from the county government came to search for the whereabouts of the assassin.

After gathering all the villagers together, the police officers began to search house by house, and left in disappointment after a long time.

"The county magistrate was killed."

Gu Xinlan whispered, "I remember that this county magistrate has only been here for less than two years. It seems that this position is not easy to hold."

"Ah."

Chen Sanshi felt a little strange as he watched the detectives gradually disappear.

Why did the barbarian warriors kill the county magistrate?
The troops in charge of guarding the border are the garrison troops, not the county government. If they want to attack, they should kill the experts in the army.

"never mind."

"None of my business."

Chen Sanshi shook his head, feeling that the world was becoming more and more chaotic, which further stimulated him to make money.

Only with money can you improve your own strength and protect yourself in this chaotic world.

After filling his stomach, he carried his bow and arrow and went up the mountain to hunt.
