Chapter 370: Learning archery, the encounter between Sun Ba and Lu Ning
Wuxi Village.
"Brother, why are you here!"
When they arrived at Wuxi Village and the other hunters left, Shi Hu, also known as A Hu, discovered Lu Ning.
"I want to learn archery from Brother Hu."
"Go back quickly."
"No, Brother Hu, if you don't teach me, I won't go back." Lu Ning acted rogue.
He must learn archery no matter what.
Shi Hu did not bargain with Lu Ning, but walked over and directly carried Lu Ning on his shoulders.
"Dad, I will send my brother home."
Shi Hu planned to carry Lu Ning back like this.
Unfortunately, he underestimated Lu Ning's determination. Lu Ning kept jumping around, breaking free from his shoulders one after another, and even played hide and seek with him.
"Okay, okay, I'll teach you archery. Don't run away. But you must promise to come back with me later." Shi Hu reluctantly surrendered.
In his heart, there was nothing he could do against Lu Ning. He couldn't fight him. This was his future brother-in-law, and he needed to have a good relationship with him.
He felt that Lu Ning was a child at heart and planned to deal with it later.
"good."
Lu Ning smiled and returned to Wuxi Village with Shi Hu.
"Why did you bring little brother back?" After bringing him home, Shi Hu's father Shi Dashan was full of doubts.
"Dad, my brother wants to learn archery. I plan to teach him and then send him back later." Shi Hu replied helplessly.
"My little brother is so young and hasn't gained much strength yet. We'll have to wait a few years to learn archery." After hearing this, Shi Dashan shook his head repeatedly, feeling that they were fooling around.
"Dad, when I saw our bows and arrows today, I'm afraid I won't go back because I'm just getting used to them." Shi Hu had a wry smile on his face.
Shi Dashan couldn't help but smile when he heard what it meant. He went back to the house and took off his bow and arrow, then threw it to Lu Ning, "Take it."
Lu Ning reached out and took the bow and arrow in his hand, feeling a little heavy in his hand.
The bow is made of a special kind of wood, and the bow itself weighs several kilograms.
He curiously reached out and touched the bowstring. The bowstring was very elastic.
"If you want to learn archery, first pull out the bowstring." Shi Dashan looked at Lu Ning with a half-smile, his expression a bit amused.
Even Shi Hu stared at Lu Ning funny.
How could Lu Ning not see that these two people wanted to see him make a fool of himself.
He just pulled the bowstring casually, but he knew that without a hundred pounds of strength, he might not be able to pull the string of the bow and arrow in his hand.
He shook his head directly, "This bow and arrow are too big and too heavy. I can't draw it. Is there a smaller bow?"
"Do you really want to learn?" Shi Dashan looked at Lu Ning with some surprise.
He thought that Lu Ning was just a kid who didn't want to learn archery after experiencing the pain, but seeing Lu Ning's serious look, he seemed to really want to learn archery.
"I want to learn." Lu Ning nodded.
Shi Dashan glanced at Shi Hu and said to him: "Go and get the little bow you practiced when you were a child."
"Okay daddy."
Shi Hu entered the house and came out after a while with a smaller bow and arrow.
"This is the bow I practiced with when I was a kid."
"Try it. If you can't pull it off, don't learn it."
Shi Hu handed the bow and arrow to Lu Ning.
Lu Ning reached out to take the bow and arrow, and compared the two bows, the bow and arrow in his hand was obviously much smaller than the one just now.
Shi Dashan began to teach him how to draw the bow.
Lu Ning followed suit and tried to draw the bow.
Unfortunately, his strength is still too weak, and his small body cannot draw this small bow at all.
Shi Dashan and Shi Hu didn't laugh at him, they just thought it was natural.
After all, Lu Ning is still too young.
"You are still too young. Maybe you can give it a try when you gain weight in a few more years. I will teach you archery by then. Then I can give you this bow." Shi Hu touched Lu
Ning's head comforted.
At that time, he was already Lu Ning's brother-in-law and could be considered a family member. By then, he would teach Lu Ning archery, and the two of them could go hunting together in the mountains and forests.
At this moment, Lu Ning's hand suddenly exerted force.
Buzz!
The bowstring was suddenly pulled apart.
"good!"
Shi Dashan exclaimed, his eyes full of joy.
"Brother, I didn't expect you to be so strong, stronger than me when I was a kid." Shi Hu also couldn't believe it and couldn't help praising you.
Bows and arrows range from one stone to twelve stones.
One hundred and twenty pounds per stone.
And the bow in Lu Ning's hand now, although it weighs less than a stone, still requires at least eighty kilograms of force to pull open.
It is really unbelievable that Lu Ning has so much strength in his small body.
For a moment, both Shi Dashan and Shi Hu looked at Lu Ning as if they were looking at a piece of jade.
He had such strength when he was a child, and it became even more powerful when he grew up. He was simply born to be a hunter.
"Let's go over there and practice."
Without saying a word, Shi Dashan took Shi Hu and Lu Ning and walked to the open space outside the yard.
There is a large open space outside the yard, which is specially used for them to practice archery.
Archery is a technical activity that requires years of practice. The more you practice, the better you will become. If you don't practice, you will become rusty.
"Come and shoot over there." Shi Dashan pointed at the target ten meters away and said to Lu Ning.
Lu Ning drew his bow and shot an arrow, but his first shot missed the target.
"Come back when you have nothing to do."
"Take a sharp breath."
"The waist and hips are one."
"When shooting arrows, you can't shoot directly at the target, you have to shoot a little higher."
Shi Dashan has very good teaching experience, and Lu Ning has made rapid progress under his guidance.
From the awkward beginning, I started to get started in a short while.
"Very good, your brain is very flexible and faster than what Ah Hu taught you when he was young." Shi Dashan was very satisfied with Lu Ning.
In his mind, Lu Ning was only seven years old. He could learn so quickly at the age of seven, which was much better than his own son Ahu.
After studying all morning, Lu Ning was reluctant to go back and had a meal at their house.
Lu Ning also met Shi Hu's mother, who was a gentle woman who seemed a little older than his mother.
She also served Lu Ning food.
"Thank you Aunt Shen."
In the afternoon, Lu Ning practiced for another half of the afternoon.
"Okay, Ahu, please send my little brother back." Shi Dashan ordered as he watched the sun begin to set.
"Okay dad." Ahu nodded.
Lu Ning was still a little reluctant to leave.
"Let's go, brother. You can ask your sister to bring you here when you are free."
"Brother Hu, can you give me this bow and arrow?" Lu Ning shamelessly raised the bow and arrow in his hand.
Ahu was startled after hearing this, and turned to look at Shi Dashan, "Dad, there's no use keeping this bow, why don't we give it to my brother."
"Just take it." Lu Dashan had no objection.
"I'll give this bow to you, brother. Please cherish it in the future and don't break it." Shi Hu touched Lu Ning's head with an honest look on his face.
"Thank you, Brother Tiger." Lu Ning held the bow and arrow, very happy.
Yes, yes, with the bow and arrow, he has room to unleash his power.
He took a look at the system in his mind and saw that the system panel had changed from before.
【Lu Ning】
【Strength: 4】
【Speed: 3】
[Defense: 3]
【Spirit:4】
[Attribute points: 29]
Strength has changed from the original 4 to the current one
It doesn't work if it doesn't change, otherwise he wouldn't be able to draw this small bow at all, nor would he be able to learn archery skills.
And his current strength of 4 is already stronger than that of an average adult.
----------
Wuxi Village is not far from Huangyan Village. After a while, Shi Hu and Lu Ning arrived at the entrance of Huangyan Village.
After entering, Lu Ning found that the village today was a bit strange and quiet. Last time, he could see many villagers here, and even if it was bad, he could still see a few children.
"Brother Hu, I suddenly remembered that I still have something to do. I won't go home yet." Lu Ning stopped walking forward because he suddenly remembered that Ah Fu was still waiting for him in the temple.
It's already afternoon, I don't know if Ah Fu is still here, I have to go see him first.
"How can this be done? I have to send you home." Ahu insisted on sending Lu Ning home first.
In fact, he wanted to see his unmarried wife again.
"Brother Hu, please accompany me to the temple first. I have a friend waiting for me there."
"Okay." Shi Hu thought about it and nodded in agreement.
He knew that temple, it was in the village, just on the way.
------------------
In the afternoon.
Uninhabited mountain wilderness.
A group of people buried the coffin.
Relatives cry at the grave.
After about an hour, they left from the tomb.
After the others left, a figure emerged from the grass on the side. It was Ah Fu.
Ah Fu looked around to make sure there was no one there, so he slipped directly to the tomb.
In front of the tomb were scattered coins, unburned incense candles, and most importantly, a plate of untouched roast chicken.
"this is ours!"
As soon as Ah Fu took the roast chicken in his hand, several beggars came running from a distance, and one of the beggars shouted to Ah Fu.
As soon as he shouted, Ah Fu took the roast chicken and ran away.
Several beggars were chasing after him.
Naturally, these beggars also wanted to pay tribute to the dead, but they didn't expect that Afu would get there first. It was because they had just hidden too far away.
For ordinary people, there is a taboo on eating tribute from the dead, but not for these beggars.
There is nothing to be afraid of ghosts, as long as you can eat enough, it is better than starving to death.
Ah Fu ran very fast, dodging in the east and west. After running for a while, he lost a few people, but there were still a few people who were like dogs, biting him and not letting go.
When they chased Ah Fu to the temple, he was finally caught up by several people, and several beggars beat and kicked him.
"Take it out, take out the roasted chicken!"
Ah Fu, on the other hand, hugged the roast chicken tightly and let their fists hit him.
A beggar saw that Ah Fu had not let go for so long. He got angry and moved a big stone to the side.
He raised the stone and aimed to hit Ah Fu on the head.
The stone is about to be thrown down at the sight of it.
"stop!"
Lu Ning and Ahu arrived in time.
The beggar panicked and couldn't hold his hand steady. The stone fell to the ground and hit his foot. He screamed in pain.
"Brother Hu, help me drive them away."
Lu Ning said as he raised the bow in his hand and rushed towards the few people.
A beggar wanted to kick Ah Fu down, but when he saw Lu Ning rushing toward him, he ran away in fright.
"You beggars, why don't you get out of here!" Ahu also rushed over and shouted at them.
The Ahu man was tall and tall, and he was also wearing hunter's clothes. He was very intimidating. Several beggars were frightened when they saw him, and they immediately dispersed.
"Afu, are you okay?"
Lu Ning helped Ah Fu up.
When Ah Fu was helped up, his face was covered with bruises.
"Hey, I'm fine."
"An Ning, here, the roast chicken." Ah Fu smiled and handed the roast chicken to Lu Ning.
Although the roast chicken was pressed under him just now, but he kept holding it in his arms, there was not much dust on it.
"Let's eat together."
Lu Ning took the roast chicken and looked at Ah Fu with an incomprehensible look.
He didn't expect Ah Fu's roast chicken to be so difficult to come by.
"Brother Hu, do you want to have a bite?" Lu Ning pulled off a chicken leg and asked Ahu.
After all, someone helped me just now.
Shi Hu glanced at the chicken legs and shook his head.
Lu Ning ignored him and began to feast on the roasted chicken with Ah Fu.
Shi Hu next to him looked at Lu Ning strangely.
He didn't know much about Lu Ning. He didn't expect that his future brother-in-law would be so close to the beggar, and the relationship between the two seemed to be very unusual.
After eating the roast chicken, Lu Ning's mouth was full of oil.
He took a look at the system in his mind.
I found that the attribute points increased by 01. From the original 29 to 30.
not bad, very good.
"Hey, An Ning, are these your bows and arrows?" After eating, Ah Fu noticed that Lu Ning was carrying a bundle of bows and arrows, and there was also a bow at his feet.
"Yes, Brother Ahu gave this to me." Lu Ning picked up the bow at his feet, pulled out the bowstring, and made a shooting motion.
"So majestic!" Ah Fu was filled with envy.
Lu Ning handed over the bow, and Ah Fu couldn't put it down and played with it in his hand.
"I will also teach you archery in the future." Lu Ning smiled and patted Ah Fu on the shoulder.
"Hehe, okay." Ah Fu had a silly smile on his face.
After eating the roast chicken, Lu Ning and Ah Fu said goodbye.
Lu Ning and Shi Hu were walking on the village road.
"Hey, it's strange, why can't you see anyone in your village today?" At this time, Shi Hu was also confused.
The sun is going down now, and usually everyone in the village should be back at this time.
Why is it that every door is closed now and there is no sound at all?
He looked around and saw that there was not even cooking smoke coming from the houses.
"I think it's quite strange too." Lu Ning also nodded.
At this moment, they saw a team coming from directly in front of them.
"It's Sun Ba from the county. Brother, get out of the way!"
Shi Hu looked at it from a distance and was immediately frightened. He quickly pulled Lu Ning to the roadside.
He lowered his head, not even daring to look at the team.
Lu Ning looked at the slowly approaching team and curiously looked at the person walking at the front.
Walking at the front was a child similar to him.
I saw a child with an arrogant face, riding a tall horse in front.
Their eyes met.
Sun Ba looked down at Lu Ning on the roadside.
Lu Ning saw the arrogance in the other person's eyes.
Sun Ba saw a hint of curiosity in Lu Ning's eyes.
"Hurry up and lower your head!"
Shi Hu, who was standing next to him, saw Lu Ning looking directly at Sun Ba and was so frightened that he quickly pressed down his head.
He was afraid that Sun Ba would kill them both if he got upset.
If he is really killed, it will make heaven and earth unable to respond, and the earth and earth will not work.
Death is also a death in vain.
Fortunately there were no setbacks.
It wasn't until Sun Ba's team walked far away that Shi Hu dared to raise his head.
"Huh~" He looked at the backs of the team in the distance and took a deep breath.
He has not forgotten what Sun Ba and his party did in their village a few days ago.
One of the hunters was beaten half to death by Sun Ba's subordinates because of his lax behavior and attitude.
"Brother Hu, who is that kid?" Lu Ning looked at the retreating team and asked calmly.
"That's the team of the Sun family in the county. The kid's name is Sun Ba. Sun Ba and Sun Ba are very domineering! If you see him in the future, remember to stay away and don't offend him." Shi Hu's face was serious and his tone was serious.
heavy.
This is no joke, it has something to do with life.
"People from the county, why do they come to us?"
"Oops, it must be because of the money thing!" Shi Hu slapped his head.
He guessed that Huangyan Village must also have been given money by thieves.
"What's the money thing?"
"There was a thief who sneaked into the Sun family at night and stole the Sun family's gold, silver and jewelry." Shi Hu explained the whole story to Lu Ning.
The more Lu Ning listened, the bigger his eyes widened.
I see.
This is how the money came from.
After listening, he finally knew who the dark figure he saw that night was and the origin of the five taels of silver.
"Let's go back quickly. I'm afraid your family will suffer too."
