Chapter 877 Comes at the right time
The sky is bright and clear, at the foot of the mountain at Shaolong Water Pond.
"Chirp, chirp... chirp, chirp..."
At the camp, the sound of horses snorting woke up Hang Baiqiu who was sleeping in the carriage.
Hang Baiqiu opened his eyes and found that the sky was already slightly bright outside, so he sat up carefully and slowly.
Because her second baby and third sister were still sleeping soundly next to her, she didn't want to wake up the two children by making too much noise.
Then, Hang Baiqiu heard the footsteps of someone walking outside the car, so she carefully got out of the car, turned around and saw that it was Yu Tie who was carrying fodder to feed the horses.
Around the fire, Chai Yan, Cheng Jiu, Guan Maochun and Zhang Youde were all still asleep, and further away, the dragons were still arranged as they were last night.
When Yu Tie saw Hang Baiqiu, he said "ah" to her. Hang Baiqiu immediately shook his head and signaled Yu Tie not to care about him. Yu Tie seemed to understand and continued to do his work.
It was very cold in the mountains in the morning. Hang Baiqiu didn't feel it in the car, but soon after getting off the car, he was hit by the cold and couldn't help but sneeze.
The first person awakened by the sneezing was not Chai Yan, but Cheng Jiu who was sleeping next to Chai Yan.
Cheng Jiu sat up in shock and found that it was Hang Baiqiu who sneezed. He breathed a sigh of relief and lay down again. At the same time, he did not forget to push Chai Yan beside him, then turned around, closed his eyes, and fell asleep again.
After being pushed awake, Chai Yan opened his eyes and saw that it was already bright. Then he saw Hang Baiqiu walking over, so he sat up and asked sleepily, "Is it so early?"
Hang Baiqiu asked: "Did you sleep well last night?"
"Uh..." Chai Yan stretched and whispered: "It was okay at first, but then it got a bit cold...ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh..."
As he said that, Chai Yan sneezed and shivered exaggeratedly after the sneeze. I don't know if it was intentional or he was really cold.
Hang Baiqiu walked to the fire as soon as she saw it. She first added two firewood to the fire, and then started to tend to the fire.
Chai Yan squatted beside the fire with his neck hunched, and while opening his palms to warm himself, he asked: "You three, did you sleep well?"
"Very good, thank you for your hard work!" Hang Baiqiu thanked him.
Last night, the four men, Chai Yan, Cheng Jiu, Guan Maochun and Yu Tie, took turns keeping watch. This was a wilderness, so people had to keep adding firewood to the fire, and they had to pay attention to whether any wild animals were approaching.
Chai Yan smiled and shook his head, and whispered: "I'm not working hard, I'm on the first shift, and the three of them will work harder."
The two of them were chatting without saying a word when they heard the sound of someone approaching in the distance.
Chai Yan and Hang Baiqiu immediately became vigilant and asked Yu Tie to protect the carriage while waking up Cheng Jiu and the others.
After Chai Yan and his entourage prepared their formation, three men in hunter attire appeared in front of them. One was a little older, about forty years old, and the other two were younger, but about thirty years old.
The three hunters stopped when they reached a certain distance. They were looking at Chai Yan and his party with very curious eyes and expressions.
Chai Yan motioned for everyone not to move, then walked towards the three of them and asked politely: "You three, are you the hunters around here?"
While questioning, Chai Yan mentally asked Shangguan Peining if there was any smell of blood on these three people, and if so, whether it was human blood or animal blood.
The oldest hunter replied loudly: "Yes! We are hunters from the nearby village, sir, you are..."
Shangguan Peining responded: "They should be hunters. The three of them are full of animal blood, not human blood!"
Chai Yan felt a little more relieved and said in a gentle tone: "Ah, we are from Yaozhou. We came here because of the reputation and want to catch a few dragons back!"
Hearing Chai Yan's words, another hunter spoke: "Come here to catch the falcon? Ha! If only it was so easy as you said!"
The middle-aged Orion immediately turned his head and gave him a stopping look, and then apologized: "Master, don't be angry, we country people have never seen the world and can't speak, haha..."
Chai Yan shook his head and said: "No, no, this big brother is right. It's really hard to catch the dragon. We were busy all afternoon yesterday, and we only caught one..."
"Ah?" The two younger hunters made a surprised sound in unison.
The middle-aged hunter was also very surprised and asked in surprise: "Sir, what did you just say? You...you have already caught it?"
Chai Yan nodded, then pointed to the tree beside him and said, "Here, it's right there."
The three hunters looked at each other, and the next moment they couldn't stand any longer, and they started to go down the tree over there.
"Wow, it's really a dragon!"
"Ah? It's so long. Let me see...it's almost ten feet at least!"
"Oh my god, how did you hit me? It's so powerful!"
Immediately afterwards, the three hunters were heard making constant sounds of surprise.
Cheng Jiu and Guan Maochun were still sleepy and too lazy to pay attention to these hunters. They pulled Zhang Youde and continued to sit by the fire, yawning while keeping warm.
Chai Yan whispered a few words to Hang Baiqiu, and Hang Baiqiu went to see Erwa and Sanmei. Yu Tie continued to take care of the horses, but his attention did not leave the three hunters.
Chai Yan walked up to the three hunters, looked at their surprised faces, and asked: "You three, are you also here to catch the falcon?"
The middle-aged hunter came back to his senses, shook his head at Chai Yan and said, "Sir, we would like to catch him, but... it's a pity that we don't have the means!"
The hunter next to him immediately said: "Yes, seven or eight people came to our village last time. They thought it would be enough to catch a small one and take it back. Who knows that someone lost a leg but still didn't catch anything? What a loss.
Dead!"
Another hunter also chimed in: "After that time, very few people in our village came to catch the dragon. We have learned a lesson from blood, don't dare..."
Chai Yan also nodded seriously and said: "That's right! Catching a dragon is dangerous. If I hadn't been so clever yesterday, it would have bitten off my head. I know it well!"
The middle-aged hunter was startled and asked in astonishment: "Sir, you mean... you were also present when this falcon was captured?"
"Yes, is there any problem?" Chai Yan nodded and asked.
In the eyes of the middle-aged hunter, Chai Yan is just a mediocre scholar. He would definitely not do such a lifeless job as catching dragons, but he didn't expect that...
"No, no, no, no problem...Young Master is brave!"
The middle-aged hunter hurriedly shook his head in compliment, but he still didn't quite believe Chai Yan's words, thinking that he was deliberately bragging!
Chai Yan didn't care what the other party thought, he just thought that you three hunters came at the right time. I was worried about how to get this crocodile out last night, hehe...
Chai Yan smiled and asked: "By the way, I wonder if the three of you are willing to help me with a small favor?"
The middle-aged hunter was stunned, looked at his two companions, and asked in confusion: "What do you need us to do, Master?"
