He forced me to sever ties with my family and sleep on a dilapidated boat, then turned around and be

Niu Bayi then took out the money and gave it to Niu Aiguo.

"This is the money for rice, Uncle Aiguo. Buy more, there will be plenty of work to do, and more workers will come. I plan to build a shed next to the construction site to store the grain."

"Besides, it provides a cool place for the craftsmen to rest in the sun."

Niu Aiguo nodded repeatedly.

"You're so thoughtful. Don't worry, I'll have my family take care of all these little things for you. You just go hunting."

Niu Bayi just told Niu Aiguo as well.

If you don't want to buy meat anywhere, just go to the forest to hunt it.

This saves money!

Anyway, I'm just idling around.

Having explained everything, Niu Bayi was ready to go into the forest to show off his skills, empty-handed.

Niu Aiguo quickly called him to a stop.

"Bayi, you don't have any weapons. How can you hunt rabbits and pheasants? How about I find you a bow and arrows and a knife? Besides, it's better to set traps when hunting rabbits and pheasants."

Niu Bayi shook his head.

"Setting traps is out of the question; that's like waiting for a rabbit to run into a tree stump. I have to take the initiative. I don't need knives or arrows; just give me a few stones, and I can bring back a bunch of meat."

Previously, he had used stones to shoot sparrows, fish, and pheasants, which boosted Niu Bayi's confidence.

He quickly disappeared into the jungle.

However, it seems that the god of fortune didn't favor Niu Bayi today.

He hadn't been in the jungle long that night when he spotted pheasants and killed two of them in one go.

And now, we've been walking in the jungle for quite a while.

Forget about pheasants, we didn't even pick up a single pheasant feather.

Not to mention wild rabbits, we didn't even find a rabbit's tail.

Unwilling to give up, Niu Bayi, clutching several pigeon-egg-sized stones in his hand, kept walking deeper into the mountains and forests, listening intently to all directions while keeping his eyes wide open.

He is now becoming increasingly adept at using spatial energy.

The spiritual energy transformed from coconut water in the space can flow throughout his body according to his will.

If you infuse it into your ears, your hearing will become extremely sensitive.

If you apply it to your eyes, your vision will become quite remarkable, and you will be able to hear all sorts of gurgling sounds in the jungle.

Some of the calls were from larks.

Some of the calls were from wild doves.

You can even hear the sound of a pangolin burrowing into the soil.

However, although pangolins are a valuable food and are particularly nutritious, they were already a strictly protected species in 1984.

If he is found out that he catches and eats pangolins, even his diary won't protect him.

Therefore, for now, we can only catch pheasants and rabbits.

Animals like the yellow muntjac and wild boar can also be caught.

After venturing deep into the jungle for about half an hour, Niu Bayi finally heard the sound he longed to hear.

It was a clucking sound, very loud, and the sound of flapping wings, which was also quite deep and powerful.

Niu Bayi knew immediately that it was a male pheasant.

Moreover, this pheasant is quite large, probably weighing four or five pounds or more.

Niu Bayi could tell that it was courting.

Spring and summer are the seasons when male pheasants look for a mate.

Niu Bayi became excited.

If a male pheasant is really seeking a mate, it might attract several female pheasants, which would be perfect for a quick kill.

Niu Bayi ran towards the direction from which the sound came, and although he was quite fast, he tried his best not to make a sound.

The male pheasant's call grew increasingly clear!

It's getting louder and louder!

When Niu Bayi felt he was no more than ten meters away from the male pheasant, he squatted down!

He reached out and pushed aside the bushes in front of him, looking ahead.

In an instant, his eyes gleamed!

Sure enough, less than ten meters!

A brightly colored pheasant stood on a miscellaneous tree that was only two meters tall.

Its long tail almost dragged on the ground.

It appears quite majestic, in its prime.

It's definitely going to weigh four or five pounds or more.

This physique is quite rare in the brothel circle; it's considered top-tier.

In short, this is a handsome, energetic, and plump pheasant.

Niu Bayi was ready to throw the small stone he was holding at any moment.

But he held his breath and waited there.

We're not in a hurry.

It's better to kill two than one.

It's better to kill three than two.

Before long, two pheasants flapped their wings and flew low over from a distance.

They are slightly smaller than male pheasants, their plumage is not as vibrant, and their tails are a bit shorter.

But they were also two beautiful female pheasants.

Although they flew towards the male pheasant, they stopped three or four meters away and each landed on a tree, where they cooed and acted somewhat coquettishly.

It seems they were concubines waiting to be chosen by the emperor.

The male pheasant looked left and right, unsure which female pheasant to choose, since they were all very beautiful.

This pheasant isn't like a man; it doesn't have the mindset of "only children make choices, I want it all."

It's quite simple and honest, tilting its head and single-mindedly choosing a wife.

For Niu Bayi, the time had come.

He raised his right hand, his thumb and forefinger holding a small stone, and aimed at one of the female pheasants.

Using the strength of his waist, he surged forward and was suddenly thrown out.

call!

The small stones are like bullets fired from a gun.

It really doesn't seem to be much less powerful than a bullet!

It hit one of the female pheasants on the head.

It didn't utter a sound and just fell to the ground.

Another pheasant, three meters away, paused for a moment, but instead of flying away, it stared curiously at its companion, which lay motionless on the ground.

What's wrong?

How did it suddenly fall?

Could it be that he's been blinded by love?

The male pheasants further away also stared curiously.

Could it be that this pheasant has been captivated by my charm?

Immediately afterwards, with another whoosh, another pheasant was struck and fell to the ground without making a sound.

The male pheasant then realized something was wrong, and suddenly flapped its wings, soaring into the sky to fly away.

However, the deadly stone did not spare it either.

Whoosh!

It hit the back of its head again!

The male pheasant, still in flight, fell silently straight down and crashed to the ground.

Niu Bayi excitedly rushed over and quickly picked up the three pheasants.

It's quite heavy when you hold it in your hand; it must weigh nearly ten pounds.

Even if you kill it, it will still weigh six or seven pounds.

With rice and other dishes, it would be enough for ten chefs, themselves, and He Zhenzhen to enjoy a delicious meal.

The broth made from this pheasant, poured over white rice, is a rare delicacy.

Add some more shiitake mushrooms...

Braised pheasant with shiitake mushrooms, even immortals would jump over the wall in a panic upon smelling it!

Just thinking about the delicious-smelling chicken made Niu Bayi's mouth water.

Three pheasants are enough!

Since time was limited, Niu Bayi didn't bother looking for other wild chickens or rabbits.

He picked up three pheasants and turned to leave.

He hadn't walked far when he suddenly heard a rustling sound behind him.

It looks like someone is following him!

Niu Bayi suddenly turned his head, but there was nothing behind him; he couldn't see anyone at all.

Niu Bayi frowned, turned around, and continued walking forward.

But after walking for a short while, they heard a rustling sound behind them again.

There was clearly something moving through the bushes and grass, closing in on me.

Niu Bayi turned his head again, but still saw nothing!
