Chapter 5 Old Hunter

"As expected..."

The next day, Lu Kun sat on the broad fork of a tree, his eyes flashing with a faint golden luster in the depths of his pupils, and he looked quietly under the tree.

Under the sunlight pillars, there were ten wild wolves surrounding the roots of the tree, and a gray wolf with a white neck sitting on a stone in the distance, its green eyes watching quietly.

he.

"The wolf's claws are extremely sharp, but cannot be retracted freely and cannot climb trees."

Lu Kun looked at his broad palm. Although it didn't have sharp claws or tough fur, it looked extremely flexible with the support of strong muscles and five slender finger bones.

The hard bark of the surrounding trees is like a raised rock that can be used for rock climbing. You must know that Lu Kun has conquered terrifying cliffs such as Chief's Peak on Earth. Climbing such trees is extremely simple.

The most important thing is that the trees in this mountain forest are very tall, so the distance between each tree is not far away. He can use the thick branches as a springboard to shuttle between the trees, looking for suitable branches to make more wood.

javelin.

"Gulu..."

Just as he was thinking, his stomach growled again.

Lu Kun touched his belly and ignored the group of wild wolves below. He took out a wolf's paw that was blurred with blood and ground sawdust on the tree trunk. He used the same method to drill wood to make fire. Waves of gray smoke came out of the forest.

out.

Built with a few branches and stones, a simple grill appeared in the tree nest, with a fat fish skewered on it. The flame burned on the grease, making a sizzling sound, and a delicious fragrance wafted out.

The wolves below were twitching their noses and making a slight commotion, but then they all became quiet as the leader let out a low growl.

Lu Kun saw that the wolves were so disciplined. Although he felt a lot of pressure, his eyes flashed with eagerness and even excitement. The grilled fish in his hand swayed with the trembling of his arms.

"I really miss it. Ever since I left the Olympics, I haven't had this feeling of being under pressure and fighting hard for a long time..."

While sighing, bursts of burnt aroma gradually entered Lu Kun's mouth and nose. He took a deep breath, slowly adjusted his breathing, stabilized his emotions, and picked up the branch in his hand.

"Gulu gulu..."

The slightly charred and crispy fish skin enters the mouth, and the special oil aroma interweaves with the white and tender fish meat, filling the teeth with fragrance.

Lu Kun swallowed it up and solved the fat fish in three strokes, five by two, and then he picked up a branch that was broken off from the tree, took out a wolf's claw, and slowly made a new wooden javelin.

.



Time passed little by little, and both Lu Kun and the wolves below seemed very patient.

I don't know how long it took, but in this extremely silent mountain forest, a sound broke through the air suddenly, and then the white-necked gray wolf let out a howl.

When Lu Kun heard the sound, he couldn't help but look over. He saw a sharp arrow piercing the neck of the wolf, and even with strong inertia, he forcibly turned the 50-60 kilogram wild wolf twice.

"Whizzing……"

"Woooo..."

Another sound broke through the air, and another wild wolf that was close to the tree, nailed the wolf and arrow directly to the trunk of the tree, and the strong wind pushed the shrubs on the ground out of the way.

Lu Kun followed the direction of the arrow and saw a white-haired old man standing on a branch in the distance, holding a third bow and arrow.

"Humans! Humans do exist here!"

Lu Kun showed a look of surprise. In excitement, he jumped up, gripped the javelin in his hand, leaned back slightly, and the muscles in his body rotated like tight gears. Each muscle contracted violently, transmitting power to the javelin.

, aimed at the panicked wolves, and threw them fiercely.

"Pfft..."

The wooden javelin seemed to echo the third arrow of the old man in the distance. One after the other, it hit a wild wolf. However, the hunter's bow and arrow hit the gray wolf's neck, while Lu Kun's javelin was inserted into the ribs of a wolf.

between.

"Good idea!"

A vigorous and powerful voice came from a distance, seemingly applauding the javelin.

Lu Kun was stunned. The other person seemed to be speaking Chinese language, and his accent sounded like that of the Central Plains region.

Although he was surprised, he did not speak in a hurry, but continued to pick up the javelin. The two of them stood on the tree, one shot arrows, and the other threw the javelin. Three more wild wolves fell to the ground, and the rest were already heading towards the forest.

Escape deep.

After a while, only the carcasses of wild wolves were left in the woods, as well as the gray wolves that had been stabbed by javelins and struggled on the ground.

The white-haired old man in the distance jumped up, stepped on the tree trunk, and landed on the ground after two leaps. He walked forward, and Lu Kun could see his face clearly.

This old man is energetic, has short pale hair, and a red mole on the left side of his dark face. He is dressed in black clothes, carries a long bow half of his body, and has two short knives hanging on his waist.

Although his face looked like he was in his fifties or sixties, his posture was upright and his walk was as fast as flying. More importantly, his appearance and skin were of a standard Chinese appearance, which made Lu Kun feel more at ease with him.

"What do you call me brother? How did you come to the depths of the Luyang Mountains? This place is already on the edge of the official road. If you are not careful, you will get lost in the mountains and never be able to return."

Lu Kun listened to the old hunter's words and saw the old hunter stopped five meters away from the tree. He hesitated for a moment, then grabbed the bark of the tree and climbed down.

The opponent had superb archery skills. It seemed that he was not only shooting with physical strength, but also appeared to be light and dexterous in jumping off the tree. Lu Kun had a feeling that if this old hunter wanted to deal with him, he might not be able to dodge a few arrows.

Moreover, the other party had repelled the wolves and was considered his savior. Lu Kun put down his guard a little, climbed down the tree with his hands on the thick bark, carried the package on his back, tied up a few javelins, and recalled in his mind what he had seen before.

He handed over his hands unfamiliarly and said in Mandarin:

"My lord, Lu Kun, thank you very much, father-in-law, for saving me."

The old hunter looked at the strong and angular muscles on Lu Kun's upper body and couldn't help but secretly praise what a majestic man he was. But after hearing his words, he was slightly stunned and said: "My little brother's accent doesn't sound like someone from Wei.

I don’t know where it came from.”

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Lu Kun looked a little dazed when he heard the word Wei. Judging from the old hunter's language and behavior, this seemed to be the world of ancient China, but

There are two moons here, but they don't look like one planet.

He hesitated for a long time and said: "To be fair to my father-in-law, I should come from a very far away place. I have never heard of the country Wei..."

Hearing this, the old hunter stroked his beard and looked Lu Kun up and down: "Far away? Although you look powerful, there are no traces of martial arts training. However, you were very skilled in throwing javelins before."

"The only people who use this kind of weapon are the soldiers described by storytellers."

When he said this, his eyes lit up and he said: "I understand, you are from the Jin State to the east of the Wei State."

"Jin Kingdom?"

Lu Kun touched the javelin behind him and said with a confused expression: "Old man, how did you see that?"

Seeing Lu Kun's expression, the old hunter felt more and more that his judgment was correct. He said with some pride: "Zhang has lived in Huayuan City for more than 20 years. Others have never heard of Jin, but I know...

…”

"Among the neighboring countries among the storytellers, only Jin is special, with its huge dynasty and army..."

Lu Kun felt confused after listening to the old man's words, but he followed the other man's guess and quickly constructed and perfected his identity. After all, his origins were incredible and he must not let others know.

As the old hunter was talking, his thick gray eyebrows suddenly jumped, and he said with some doubts: "That's not right. Although the Jin State is adjacent to the Wei State, there is no official line between them. Even a top-notch warrior will find it difficult to pass through. You

How did this low-class warrior get here?"

"Official way? Super-class warrior?"

Lu Kun was both familiar and unfamiliar with these words. The former seemed to be a certain path, and the latter seemed to be somewhat similar to the warriors in martial arts movies. Although he didn't understand the world at all, he was not stupid. Following the old hunter's guess,

His eyes were a little confused and he said:

"I'm not sure how it happened. I just remember that I was in the military camp the night before yesterday, instructing the soldiers on physical training. Then there seemed to be a lot of lightning and thunder in the sky. When I woke up again, I fell in this mountain forest."

As the old hunter listened, his eyes gradually brightened up. He looked at Lu Kun with bright eyes, and even wanted to step forward and squeeze the strong upper body muscles.

"What are you going to do, old man..."

Lu Kun couldn't help but take a step back, feeling a little wary in his heart, wondering what was wrong with his statement.

The old hunter coughed lightly and said slowly: "Although what the little brother said is unbelievable, this is not the first time this kind of thing has happened."

"Has it happened before? Do you know how I got here?"

Looking at the old hunter's expression, Lu Kun couldn't help but feel a little more curious. He seemed to be telling no lies. He spoke very vaguely, so why did the old hunter seem so sure?

Is it possible that people fall from the sky here from time to time?

The old hunter touched his beard and said: "There are many such legends in our area, but this is not the place to talk. Come and help clean up. These mountain wolves usually hide outside official roads and are difficult to see. There are so many of them.

Wild wolf skin can be exchanged for a lot of silver."

Seemingly confirming Lu Kun's whereabouts, the old hunter was relieved. He turned around to clean up the gray wolf on the ground and handed out a silver-white hunting knife at his waist.

"Oh, here it comes."

Lu Kun was still wondering what officialdom was and what the legend was about someone falling from the sky. When he heard what the old man said, he came to his senses and took the hunting knife.

The two of them started to pack it up in the mountains and forests, only peeling off the wolf skin. As for the sharp claws and teeth of Lu Kun's treasure, it seemed that they were not as precious as he thought and were completely worthless.

"Brother Lu Kun, I am very curious about what the Jin Kingdom is like."

"Hey, we are always in chaos. The dynasty and various warlords are fighting each other, making the people miserable."

"What is a warlord?"

"Oh, it's the power with the army."

"Hey, isn't it true that the dynasty is not the same as all the forces in the Jin Kingdom? Why are there still warlords?"

"The warlords were formerly subordinates of the dynasty. When they became powerful, they wanted to overthrow the dynasty and make their own decisions."

"Looks like this. Doesn't it look similar to ours?"

"Old man, is this place also in chaos?"

"It doesn't count, there are still battles between cities..."

In this way, a powerful young man and a powerful old hunter were chatting and handling the wolf carcasses. After a while, they each carried a pile of wolf skins and walked out of the mountain...
