Siheyuan: Cao Liang's rise

Cao Liang and Gangzi were walking on the mountain road.

Looking at the bare surroundings, Gangzi's heart was beating fast. Not to mention hares or pheasants, even birds were hard to see.

In this situation, can we really hunt?

Seeing no sound behind him, Cao Liang looked back and guessed what Gangzi was thinking.

He explained: "Don't worry, just go deeper. This is how it is these days. Everything that can be eaten has been eaten up by the villagers."

Gangzi nodded, and then asked worriedly: "Are there a lot of dangerous animals in the deep mountains? We didn't bring any weapons..."

"I have my own way!"

Cao Liang shook his head, but didn't explain too much, and continued walking into the mountains.

Gangzi thought that since Cao Liang was able to catch the blind bear and several wolves last time, there must be a way.

And since Cao Liang had said so, he just listened.

He was just worried that he might encounter danger later and would not be able to protect Cao Liang.

After half an hour.

The two have arrived deep in the mountains.

The environment here is completely different from the outside. It is green and full of vitality everywhere.

But at the same time, the mountains are full of dangers.

If people have nothing to eat, the same goes for animals.

Once those wild animals are extremely hungry, they will eat anything.

That is why, even though the villagers of Gaoling were so hungry, they only dared to hang around the outskirts and did not dare to come into the mountains.

Otherwise, we won’t be looking for food, but will be delivering food to wild animals.

Gangzi was also cautious and alert about his surroundings, holding the axe tightly in his hand.

Rusty~

"Liangzi, be careful!"

Suddenly, there was a noise in the bushes in the front right. Gangzi hurriedly stood in front of Cao Liang, staring at the bushes vigilantly with an axe in hand.

Cao Liang shook his head and laughed. His five senses were so powerful that even though he didn't see anything, he could already tell that it should be a small animal, probably a rabbit or something like that.

But it was Gangzi's first time to hunt in the mountains, so it was normal for him to be nervous.

Sure enough, a gray rabbit soon jumped out of the grass.

The little rabbit looked around as if looking for food.

"Liangzi, it's a rabbit."

Gangzi's eyes lit up and he looked a little excited.

That's all meat! And judging by the size of the rabbit, it must be at least four or five pounds.

Then Gangzi said regretfully: "What a pity, I should have brought a slingshot earlier."

Rabbits are very agile, so if you try to rush up and catch them, the chances of catching them are slim.

Gangzi thought for a while and then raised the axe in his hand.

It looks like he wants to hit the rabbit with an axe.

But as soon as he raised his hand, it was grabbed by Cao Liang.

"Let me do it!"

Under Gangzi's puzzled gaze, Cao Liang lowered his head, picked up a small stone, aimed for a moment, and threw it out.

swoosh~

"Woo~"

The rabbit cried "Woo" and then lay on the ground motionless.

When Gangzi saw this, he just froze where he was.

When did Liangzi learn this trick? And it's so accurate?

I'm afraid even if he used a slingshot, his accuracy wouldn't be that high?

Seeing Gangzi in a daze, Cao Liang patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "What are you doing? Go pick up rabbits!"

"Ah...oh."

Gangzi came back to his senses and walked towards the rabbit.

Soon he was even more surprised. He saw a bloody hole between the rabbit's eyebrows. Needless to say, it must have been caused by Cao Liang hitting it with a stone.

It seems that Cao Liang's method is even more sophisticated than he imagined.

After picking up the rabbit, Gangzi returned to Cao Liang and suddenly remembered something. He slapped his forehead and said, "Oh, I should have carried a bamboo basket up the mountain earlier."

"give it to me!"

Cao Liang stretched out his hand.

Gangzi was a little confused, but still handed it over.

As soon as Cao Liang touched the rabbit, it disappeared. Gangzi's eyes widened, "Liangzi, you...you..."

"Don't ask, just know it, and remember to keep it a secret."

Gangzi nodded blankly.

My mind hasn't come to its senses yet.

A rabbit weighing several kilograms just disappeared miraculously?

Where did Liangzi hide it?

Is it a trick?

Gangzi's train of thought is quite novel, he actually thinks of magic tricks.

But Cao Liang asked him to keep it a secret, so he definitely wouldn't tell anyone, even if his parents asked.

Then, the two continued to walk inside.

Along the way, we had pretty good luck and encountered a few rabbits and pheasants.

Cao Liang took them all down with stones.

Another half hour passed.

Cao Liang suddenly stopped.

"Liangzi, why don't you leave?"

Gangzi looked at Cao Liang in confusion and asked in a low voice.

Cao Liang nodded his chin as he moved forward.

When Gangzi saw the situation in front of him, his eyes suddenly widened like bells.

Just ahead, I saw a group of wild boars digging for food in the ground.

There are two big ones, which must weigh about 50 or 60 kilograms, and four small ones, which should weigh about 10 kilograms. They seem to be baby pigs.

Gangzi whispered, "Gangzi, that can't be a family, right?"

"It should be."

Cao Liang nodded.

Sure enough, his luck has always been good.

Not long after entering the mountains, they discovered a nest of wild boars.

Now Li Shengli has a clear idea.

With this family of wild boars, his promotion should be secure.

"Liangzi, do you want to go?"

Gangzi stared at the wild boar, clenched the axe with both hands, and was eager to try.

Even if you only catch one, it can be exchanged for a lot of food based on the current market conditions.

Cao Liang nodded: "Of course I will go, but let me do it."

Gangzi was stunned. "Liangzi, you still want to use stones? But the wild boar is so big, it might be a little difficult."

"You go over there first to prevent the little ones from running away."

Cao Liang didn't explain anything and asked Gangzi to block the wild boar's retreat.

After hearing this, Gangzi left without saying a word.

After Gangzi reached the designated location, Cao Liang moved.

Soon, Gangzi saw a magical scene.

Cao Liang quickly came behind a wild boar, then reached out and touched it, and the wild boar disappeared.

Then the next one came.

When the little wild boars saw that their parents were missing, they ran away in panic.

But how could Cao Liang let them go?

If you catch them and keep them in a space for a period of time, they will grow into dozens of kilograms of meat.

So Cao Liang started to attack the little wild boar.

Soon three of the little wild boars were taken into the space, and the only remaining one ran towards Gangzi.

Gangzi subconsciously pounced over and caught the last one.

Cao Liang walked over and put the last little wild boar into the space.

In just two minutes, Cao Liang had taken down the entire family.

Gangzi exclaimed: "Liangzi, your trick is so amazing. No matter how many times I watch it, it still feels magical."

trick?

Cao Liang was also shocked by Gangzi's train of thought.

He actually thought this was a trick?

What kind of magic trick is so awesome that it can make so many things disappear?

Do you think it is the storage bag in the immortal cultivation novels?

Cao Liang smiled and patted Gangzi on the shoulder. "I still say the same thing. Just know it. Remember to keep it a secret for me."

Gangzi grinned and nodded heavily.

"of course."
