Rate the wilderness

The winter in Sunset Forest is about to pass, the ice and snow are melting, and everything is recovering.The hunters in Xishan Cave, under the auspices of Wu Cai, hold a spring hunting ceremony. The process is simple but sacred.On this day, hunters will wear the best animal skins and the most sophisticated weapons, one by one to receive the blessing of Wucai.Hunters who are blessed will have a smear of cinnabar on their foreheads, which Wu Cai will personally apply.

Ye Chen was the last one in the list. Wu Cai looked at him and found that one winter day, he had grown taller and his body was much stronger.He holds a spear, holds a bow, and has a straight waist. He is already a heroic hunter.

"Yechen, the gods will bless you, you will not bleed or suffer pain, and wild beasts will not hurt you." Wu Cai's words seemed to have divine power. She touched the cinnabar bowl with her finger, dipped it in cinnabar, lightly Dab a touch of red on Yechen's forehead.

Like other blessed hunters, Yechen put one knee on the ground and raised his forehead.The cinnabar painted on his forehead seems to be more straight than other people's. Its tail is very long and runs down the bridge of the nose, making Ye Chen's facial features look particularly straight and well-proportioned.

The hunters were all blessed. They left the cave and went hunting together. Looking from a distance, there was a huge group of people.The women stood at the entrance of the cave, watching them leave neatly, aware of the coming of spring.

The hunters walked under a big tree that was sprouting seedlings, and began to divide into teams, going south to the White Lake and east to the Sunset Forest.Zhu Maoya called away five young men: Yongyi, Yechen, Heiba, Changjiaoyi, and Huiya.Zhu Maoya said: "You go to Baihu Lake to hunt, and leave the deer herd to other partners."

This is also a kind of recognition, recognition of their growth.

When he came to Baihu Lake, Yong Yi decided to go to the south bank of Baihu Lake to track the Baihu elephant herd. There are many kinds of Baihu elephants, including mammoths, but recently it is very difficult to see elephants.Yechen recognized the elephant's footprints from the messy footprints by the water, and he said to Yong Yi, "Going there, there are two elephants, one big and one small."

"It seems to be mother and child, so let them go." Yong Yi held his spear and looked at a rhinoceros drinking water by the lake.

It was a giant rhinoceros with old wounds, moreover from spears and arrows.Yong Yi thought to himself: Oh, why does it look familiar, like an old acquaintance.

Yechen pointed at the giant rhinoceros, he had already noticed that Yong Yi was playing with it, at least it seemed that way, he said: "The two of us can't hunt it, I'll call Changjiaoyi and them to come together."

Yong Yi raised his hand to stop it, he said with a smile: "Yechen, I know it, it is the rhinoceros I rode before." Then he took big strides and walked towards the giant rhinoceros.

Huge animals with big horns can be quite scary if they have a bad temper, try not to provoke them if you can.

Yechen didn't have time to stop Yong Yi, but he was already walking towards Ju Xi.

Seeing that Yong Yi was still quite a distance away from the giant rhinoceros, the giant rhinoceros had already noticed his arrival and was very angry.It roared, lowered its head, and charged straight at Yong Yi. "Wow, it's so fierce." Yong Yi hurriedly dodged and climbed up the tree in a flash, more agile than a leopard.

The giant rhinoceros slammed into the tree trunk, knocking an old tree trembling in the wind and rain, as if it would be shaken down at any time.Yechen exclaimed: "Yong Yi, run away!" Yong Yi was not afraid at all, he stepped lightly on the tree branch, jumped forward, and when he fell, he was already on the back of the giant rhinoceros.

Yechen: "..."

The giant rhinoceros was obviously dumbfounded, and then it frantically wanted to throw Yong Yi off, and Yong Yi rode on its neck and laughed loudly: "Hahaha, don't try to throw me off this time!"

Ju Xi's heart was probably broken, while Ye Chen was quite helpless after witnessing all this.

Yong Yi rode a giant rhino and ran past Ye Chen. He grabbed the rhino horn with one hand and stretched out the other, shouting: "Ye Chen, give me your hand, and I will pull you." Ye Chen dodged his body and tried to avoid it He's not interested in being a rhino rider, it's too dangerous.

"Come down quickly!" Ye Chen was still terrified, even though he had participated in hunting by his side many times and knew his adventurous actions.

The giant rhino jumped and trembled desperately, but it couldn't shake off Yong Yi. It was so angry that it went on a rampage and ran into the forest.When it disappeared with Yong Yi, Ye Chen heard Yong Yi's cry, it seemed that he was in pain from the fall again.

Yechen shook his head, followed the sound and walked towards the forest.

Walking into the forest, I saw Yong Yiren standing vigilantly, making a silent movement, his eyes were peeking at something behind the leaves.Yechen twitched his hands and walked to Yongyi's side, he stretched his neck to look in the direction Yongyi was looking at, he was taken aback.

Two distinctive antlers are exposed in the grass, forming a burning flame, it is a fire-horned deer!

As a person who is good at hunting deer, Ye Chen involuntarily stretched out his hand to the quiver on his back, and immediately Yong Yi pressed his hand.If there was a sound to this series of actions, it was as subtle as a foot on a dead leaf.

However, the firehorn deer fled vigilantly, hiding among the vegetation, and disappeared instantly.

"I scared it away..." Yechen was a little frustrated, he had the reflex of a deer hunter, and couldn't help touching the arrow.

"I want to catch it alive." Yong Yi has his own plan.

"What are you going to do to capture it alive?" Ye Chen was puzzled.

"Ride it, according to the claw marks, a long time ago, our red spear warriors in the West Mountain Cave would ride a firehorn deer." Yong Yi showed yearning, and he continued: "How majestic!"

Yechen: "..."

"Could it be the one I saw by the river before?" Yong Yi rubbed his chin, thoughtfully: "Firehorn deer are so rare, it's impossible for the setting sun forest to have two ends."

Yechen caressed his bowed body and lowered his head. He recalled the scene in his dream, the side of the drizzle by the white lake.A firehorn deer riding on the back of the other, like a revelation.

"Yong Yi, we have to hunt." Ye Chen looked up at the sun, the morning time had passed.

Yong Yi walked ahead carelessly, with a spear on his shoulder, and turned to Ye Chen and said, "Come on, let's go hunting pigs."

One winter day, both of them grew taller, but Yechen's head still only reached Yongyi's ears, probably this height difference will remain in the future.

The two of them walked for a while, and they actually tracked down the trace of the wild boar, and before seeing it, they heard its cry: "Aww..." The voice was angry and narrow, it was the sound of a wounded beast.

When I walked in, I saw a tall and thin young man with a bow and arrow on his back and a gauntlet tied to his arm.His biggest feature is not the armguard, but his bow, which is very long, twice as long as Yechen's bow.

"Hey, longbow man, you shot and killed the prey we were chasing." Yong Yi crossed his chest and looked at the wild boar lying in a pool of blood. He was neither angry nor angry.

The Longbow people are a tribe in the woods of the Bainan Lake, and they can be seen occasionally hunting.Longbowmen are good at using bows, and even hunted mammoths with bows. All of them have thick arms and extraordinary physical strength.

Longbow man Zhao Yongyi and Yechen saw that he had handsome features and shoulder-length hair, half tied behind his head.He wears a necklace of colorful shells around his neck, and a small piece of antler hangs around his waist. It is the antler of a firehorn deer, which is as bright as blood.He opened his lips to speak, and his voice was sweet: "Are you guys from the West Mountain Cave?"

"Yes." Yechen stepped forward and nodded friendly to him.

"My name is Qiongshen, and I am the son of Qiongzhi." Qiongshen introduced himself, and he raised his hands and feet with the elegance that the hunters of the sunset forest never touch.

"My name is Yechen, and he is Yongyi." Yechen introduced himself and Yongyi to the other party.

"Aren't you talking about wild boars? How did you come up with the name?" Yong Yi didn't realize that this hunter was good-looking at all, what's so good about a man.Yong Yi asked something serious: "Qiongshen, is there any prey around here?"

With the wild boar on his back, Qiongshen pointed to the front and said, "There are bison by the stream, I'll take you there." With two slender legs, he carried a wild boar on his back and led the way friendly.

"Are there only two of you, and no other partners? Two people can't hunt bison." Qiongshen turned to talk to Yechen, although Yong Yi was the one with the spear - bison couldn't be shot with a deer hunting bow, but he seemed to prefer it Talk to Yechen.

The three of them walked to the stream, and they saw three or four bison drinking water. They were huge and full of wildness, and several bison were scattered among the wild grass.Qiongshen unloaded the wild boar and took out his bow and arrows. He seemed to be planning to help. He said, "I'll shoot one first and bleed it, and then you go up."

"It doesn't need to be so troublesome." Yong Yi was still lax and lazy at one moment, but he had already clenched his spear tightly in the next moment, and rushed to the bison in an instant. Smooth, fast and ruthless.

He didn't know when he had chosen his prey. This was a calf standing alone. It was far away from its companions and unaware. It was the most suitable hunting object.

When a bison is attacked and injured, other bison will attack the enemy angrily. In this case, it is easy to be trampled and contradicted by the crazy bison.Qiong Shen was stunned by Yong Yi's series of actions, and then he saw Ye Chen's brave and fearless figure, in a chaotic and dangerous situation, he was moving while shooting arrows, calm and unrestrained, with excellent archery skills.

The buffalo that had been hit by several arrows was bleeding rapidly, and Yong Yi stabbed it several times in a row, and the buffalo's strong body collapsed. It was supposed to be an extremely difficult scene of hunting buffalo, but the two of them completed it extremely quickly.

Qiongshen came down from the tree and walked up to Yechen. He asked, "Yechen, please show me your bow." Yechen handed out his unpretentious, low-power deer hunting bow.Qiongshen held on to it and found that it was indeed Zhang Yougong. He was very surprised and said, "Would you like to come with me to the tribe, I want to give you a longbow."

His request also surprised Yechen, since the two met for the first time, they had no friendship at all.

Qiong Shen seemed to know what Ye Chen was thinking, he laughed and said, "Even among our longbow clan, your archery skills are top-notch." He returned the deer hunting bow to Ye Chen, still inviting: "Ye Chen, you There should be a good bow."

Yong Yi was carrying the buffalo, so he could carry such a dead and heavy prey.He slowly stood up straight and glanced at Qiongshen, he heard every word this guy said.Even though they just met each other, Yong Yi inexplicably felt that he was an eyesore.

"Qiongshen, thank you for your kindness, it's getting late, we have to go back." Although Ye Chen was a little tempted, he still refused, even if it was still early, he would not casually accept gifts from others.

Qiongshen seemed regretful, but his enthusiasm remained unchanged. He said, "Yechen, when will you come to Baihu again? I'll bring you the bow."

Yong Yi raised his eyebrows, feeling a little displeased, thinking that this person was too enthusiastic.

"No, I seldom come here." Ye Chen waved his hand and said goodbye.

"Yechen, let's go." Yong Yi had already walked ahead and didn't want to stay any longer.

Yechen followed quickly, stretched out his hand to support the bison on Yongyi's shoulder, and asked with concern: "Yongyi, carry it back together, how tiring you are carrying it like this."

"It can carry it, how much a calf can weigh." Yong Yi has brute strength, and he can barely move his back. Besides, he doesn't want to dawdle here. He doesn't like this Longbow tribe named Qiongshen, and he always feels that he is against Ye. Chen is interesting.

Yong Yi and Ye Chen walked away, but Qiong Shen was still standing there, he had been paying attention to them, or he had been watching Ye Chen.Look at his slender body, with a deer hunting bow on his slender waist, he has an outstanding appearance, with painted eyebrows, a touch of cinnabar on his forehead, and red feathers wrapped around his hair around his ears.

On the way, Yong Yi called: "Yechen."

Ye Chen responded, "Huh?"

Yong Yi was walking ahead, he was weighed down by the prey he was carrying, but he still said a long paragraph: "Next time, Zhu Maoya will make a deal with the Longbow Clan and ask him to change your longbow for you."

"No, I use the deer hunting bow very well." Ye Chen shook his head.

"Oh, then what do you keep watching him for? Does he look as good as me?" Yong Yi snorted lightly, but he actually cared.

"You..." Yechen was obviously surprised, he did look at Qiongshen twice more.

In fact, he was only carrying a longbow, and this was the first time Yechen met a member of the Longbow tribe.
