Siheyuan: Activate the farm system at the beginning

After the old village chief left, Lou Xiao'e looked at the surrounding environment curiously like a curious baby.

Is this the countryside?

The scenery is beautiful and it feels much more beautiful and comfortable than in big cities.

Lou Xiao'e couldn't understand why those people in the countryside were trying so hard to squeeze into the city. Wouldn't it be nice to live in the countryside?

Lou Xiao'e only saw the beautiful mountains and rivers around her, but she didn't know how much effort it took for people in the countryside to maintain their daily lives.

Even if they try their best, they may not be able to maintain a normal life.

This is especially true in this age of famine.

In the 21st century, many young people have imagined owning their own piece of land and leading a comfortable pastoral life.

These people have never experienced the hardships of life in the countryside. They only have a rough understanding of it from TV or books, and they think that pastoral life is very beautiful.

But in reality, a real pastoral life is far beyond what they can sustain.

When successful people recall the past, they are not really trying to relive rural life; they are just lamenting the hardships they once endured.

The same is true for Lou Xiao'e now. Seeing the hard-working people around her and the beautiful mountains and rivers, she couldn't help but sigh: "The environment here is so beautiful. If I live here, it seems to be a good choice."

Li Changlin smiled and said, "Xiao'e, it's okay to come to the countryside to play occasionally, but if you live here forever, I'm afraid you may not be able to stick to it."

Lou Xiao'e sighed, "That's true. If I were to come and live here, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to survive."

Li Changlin nodded and said, "Don't think too much. Have you ever hunted before? I'll take you into the mountains to experience the hunting atmosphere later."

"Well, I've never experienced this before, so I just came here to experience it. I just don't know if I can hunt some prey."

Although Lou Xiao'e only focuses on providing an experience, it would be even better if you could hunt prey.

This is also true for many people.

The two did not have to wait too long, and soon the old village chief came over with a strong middle-aged man.

Li Changlin took a closer look at the middle-aged man, and found him to be someone he was familiar with.

Qin Zhenguo, Qin Jingru's father.

He is also a familiar old comrade.

Qin Zhenguo carried a traditional longbow on his back and held two traditional longbows in his hands.

The old village chief came up to Li Changlin and introduced him with a smile: "Boss Li, this is Qin Zhenguo, I believe you already know him.

Qin Zhenguo is a good hunter in our village. The last time we hunted the Siberian tiger, it was also Qin Zhenguo who put in a lot of effort.

With Qin Zhenguo taking you into the mountains to hunt, I believe you will be able to gain something.

There are restrictions on hunting rifles in the village, so they cannot be provided for the time being.

Hunting is now only possible with bows and arrows.

These two traditional longbows are your tools. Try them out and see if you can use them.

If that doesn't work, I'll replace your slingshots."

There are many ways to hunt.

Generally, traditional hunters use traditional longbows for hunting.

This is more economical.

Moreover, the skin of prey hunted with traditional longbows is relatively good and can be sold at a good price.

If your financial situation is better, you can also choose a shotgun.

Shotguns have strong lethality, but compared to traditional longbows, it is not easy to obtain intact prey.

If you want something more economical, some people choose slingshots.

But this type of slingshot is mostly used by children, because children do not have enough strength to use the traditional longbow.

Li Changlin took the two traditional longbows handed over by Qin Zhenguo and gave one to Lou Xiaoe.

Li Changlin had never played with a bow and arrow, but he had seen it before.

He casually pulled the bowstring.

Li Changlin didn't feel that the pulling force was very strong, he could pull it very easily.

This bow and arrow didn't seem as strong as Li Changlin had imagined. In fact, it seemed a little light to Li Changlin.

Can a bow and arrow of this level really kill prey?

Li Changlin couldn't help but feel a little suspicious.

It looked very easy in Li Changlin's hands, but became very difficult in Lou Xiaoe's hands.

Lou Xiao'e tried her best, but could only pull the bowstring a little bit.

Seeing this, Qin Zhenguo quickly took out a slingshot from his pocket.

“If you find the bow and arrow difficult, why not try this slingshot.

If used properly, hunting small animals won’t be a big problem.”

Lou Xiao'e immediately changed the slingshot and started trying to pull it.

Compared to the traditional longbow, the power of the slingshot is indeed much smaller.

"I'll just use this one."

Lou Xiao'e did not insist on using the traditional longbow. For her, the most important thing about this hunting activity was participation.

Li Changlin felt the longbow in his hand and felt that the strength was still a little lacking. It was too light for him.

Li Changlin asked, "Can you help me get a bow with more power? This bow is still a little too light for me."

"What? This bow is still too light?"

The old village chief asked back subconsciously. In fact, from the way Li Changlin pulled the bowstring just now, he knew that it was still very easy for Li Changlin.

The old village chief never imagined that Li Changlin was so strong.

The traditional longbow in Li Changlin's hand now, although of ordinary standard strength, has a pulling force of 50 kilograms.

For people who hunt frequently, this pulling force is not considered very large and is a standard force. However, for people who have never practiced bows and arrows, this force is definitely not low.

Li Changlin nodded slightly.

"If there is a bow with stronger pulling force, that would be better. If not, forget it."

Li Changlin did not force it. He just wanted to experience it and took a bow and arrow that suited him.

The old village chief nodded and said, "If you want a bow with stronger pulling power, it's not impossible. I happen to have one at home, but I'm afraid you can't pull it."

Li Changlin smiled and said, "Village Chief, please bring it here for us to have a look. If there is really no way to pull it, then I will just use the traditional longbow in my hand."

"Okay, wait for me for a moment, I'll go in and look for it."

The old village chief nodded slightly, then turned and entered the room.

After a long while, the old village chief came out with a huge bow and arrow carved with patterns in his hand.
