Powerful ministers are husbands

Pang Miao had nothing to refute, and he and Cao Lu followed behind Meng Qinghua and Gongyu Yixiao leisurely.

The horses galloped all the way, and the sound of horseshoes sounded rhythmically, like a cheerful tune, which added a relaxed and interesting atmosphere to this hunting.

The destination is a forest at the foot of a mountain. There is a small stream flowing through the forest, reflecting the sunshine and green trees, which is very quiet and beautiful. Before the sound of horseshoes approaching, a few fat rabbits rushed into the bushes vigilantly. After jumping three or five times, it disappeared.

Several people tied the horses to the trees by the stream, and then took bows and arrows, baskets and other things, ready to start action.

"Cousin, thank you." Meng Qinghua said with a smile when she handed over a bow, a little blush remained on her fair cheeks, and she looked cute and cute, "Don't tell me about this for now Parents, are you okay?"

Pang Miao nodded.

Meng Qinghua turned her head to look at Gongyu and Cao Lu who were in the conversation, lowered her voice a little and said, "Can I trouble my cousin to come back a little later?"

Pang Miao still didn't speak, but nodded in agreement.

Meng Qinghua, who was immersed in the joy of meeting her lover, didn't realize that something was wrong, so she rushed forward to give Pang Miao a warm hug, and then turned to look for Gongyu to smile.

Soon, a pair of young lovers got into the woods with their arrow baskets on their backs, while Pang Miao and Cao Lv were still standing there.

The wind brought the fragrance of green grass and green leaves, and the stream flowed cheerfully, making a pleasant sound. Pang Miao straightened his hair messed up by the wind, and smiled at Cao Lv calmly, "Let's go too."

Great time, don't waste it.

Pang Miao took the arrow basket from Cao Lu and entered the woods first.There was a small path hidden under the dense bushes, winding and extending to the depths of the forest. He gradually lightened his steps, and held his breath to identify the sound of animals moving from the sound of the wind.

There was a rustling sound from the bushes not far away, and Pang Miao stopped immediately, using the tree trunk in front of him as a cover to peep at the situation over there.

Not long after, a wild boar poked its head out from a dandelion plant, looked around with its small round eyes, sniffed around, and made a "humming" sound from time to time.

Pang Miao's eyes lit up, he had never hunted a wild boar before.

This wild boar probably just had its stomach full, and it looked very lazy. The pig's nose moved away from a bright yellow flower, and its body tilted, and it began to roll happily on the small open space.

Pang Miao picked up an arrow, ready to aim at the prey.

The wild boar didn't know that the danger was close at hand, and its hooves waved wildly, bumping into a bush of dandelions.

The dandelion cluster had recently withered its flowers, replaced by balls of fluffy pompoms.Under such a toss of the wild boar, the fluff on the scape fluttered away, like snow in the twelfth lunar month of winter, quietly floating among the trees under the blowing of the wind.

A fluff that was too small to be noticed was blown on Pang Miao's lips, and he suddenly felt that his nose was itchy and uncomfortable, and a sneeze was about to come out involuntarily, and a warm and dry hand covered his mouth and nose .

Cao Lv stood behind him, his warm and humid breath on his neck, Pang Miao turned his head slightly, and gave him a grateful look.

The wild boar didn't realize that there was someone nearby, so it spread its trotters and flapped a dying butterfly.

Cao Lu made a gesture to Pang Miao, and the two of them put their arrows on the string at the same time. The difference was that there were two arrows on Cao Lu's bow, and they aimed at the wild boar together.

There was no words, but there seemed to be a tacit understanding. When the wild boar was lying on the ground, the arrows were shot almost at the same time. leaves.

The wild boar let out a shrill cry, Cao Lu's figure was like a gust of wind, he leaped forward in a few jumps, and killed the wild boar with a single knife.When Pang Miao walked over, he saw that he was already busy tying the pig's feet with a rope.

"General Cao is good at archery." Pang Miao stared at the blood-stained leaf and couldn't help but marvel.

Cao Lu pointed to the feathered arrow that hit the boar's heart, "Your arrow technique is not far behind."

"Coincidentally." Pang Miao smiled faintly, pulled out his own arrow first, and then took away Cao Lv's two.

Cao Lv chose a tall and strong tree and hung the wild boar on it to prevent other animals from sharing the pork when they were away.Then, they continued to walk deeper into the woods.

There was already a wild boar on the pad, so their targets were on small rabbits and pheasants.

Compared with the big, unsuspecting wild boar, the hare is much harder to catch.Pang Miao fired three arrows in a row, but he couldn't get a single fur from the hare—the hares here are so agile, if there was a slight disturbance, they would immediately burrow into the bushes and disappear without a trace.

The rabbits in the paddock are lazy and too fat to run, so they are much easier to fight.

Pang Miao squatted behind a clump of weeds half a person's height, turned his head suddenly, and saw Cao Luyu standing on a big rock facing the wind, the hem of his clothes was blown in a chic arc.

He turned his head and continued to search for the target.

A big fat hare with gray fur soon appeared in his sight, and the arrow hit the string again.

The long ears of the gray-haired hare trembled twice, and before the feathered arrow arrived, it jumped under a bush bearing red fruits, and the arrow plunged into the soil with a "poof", its tail feathers trembling incessantly like a silent mockery.

Pang Miao shook his head, and moved forward with a short body, but heard a "stab" sound, the corner of his clothes hooked on the thorns, and a hole was drawn.He tore it a few times, and tore off the clothes from the barbs. When he raised his head, he saw Cao Luti slipping a bunch of hares, leaning lazily on the tree trunk. A ray of sunlight fell on him through the branches and leaves, which was very bright.

"It's so fast..." Pang Miao muttered, brushing away the wild flowers that rushed to his face, not wanting to startle the hares nestled under a clump of weeds and run away in all directions.

He sighed helplessly, clutched his chest, and took a few deep breaths to calm himself down—the most important thing in hunting is to be calm, not discouraged or impatient, in order to hunt things.

After searching intently for a while, a thin layer of sweat broke out on his forehead. Pang Miao wiped the sweat with his sleeve indiscriminately, and sat down cross-legged.Then he thought of Cao Lv, who had been ignored for a long time, looked around, but there was no one there, so he hurriedly stood up to look for him.

At this moment, the low-pitched roar of the tiger came faintly, accompanied by the rustling sound of rubbing against the grass, Pang Miao's face froze immediately.

The imperial capital is crowded with people, and no one has heard how a tiger barks for many years.He held his breath, and listened intently to the movements in all directions. Only by figuring out where this eye-catching white-fronted tiger was hiding, could he seize the opportunity to run in the right direction.

The wind blew and the grass swayed, and the light spots on the ground shook, which affected the direction of hearing. Pang Miao slowly approached a tree and looked around vigilantly.

Suddenly, there was a sound of "rustling", and Pang Miao's heart was almost in his throat. What appeared in his mind was a picture of a tiger leaping out, pushing himself to the ground, and then opening its bloody mouth. Turning around, clung to the trunk with hands and feet, as if to climb up.

"A Miao?" A clump of bushes was pushed aside, and Cao Lv's figure appeared. He looked at Pang Miao with his hands and feet embracing the trunk in surprise.

"There's a tiger!" Pang Miao didn't dare to shout loudly, and reminded in a low voice: "It's nearby, let's hide quickly."

"Are you sure..." Cao Lu looked around suspiciously.

Pang Miao waved his hands, "You have wounds on your body, how can you fight, don't be eaten by it."

Cao Lv looked serious, and quickly rushed to Pang Miao's side, wrapped his arms around his waist, jumped up to the towering tree in front of him, and sat on a thick branch two feet above the ground.

Pang Miao was able to breathe a sigh of relief dangling his two dangling legs, and then he realized that Cao Lv was not only carrying the previous rabbit in his hands, but also had a rope on his body, and tied three or five motionless pheasants. It was hilarious.

"Look, where is the tiger? Let's leave as soon as it leaves here. I don't know what happened to my cousin and the others." He was afraid that he would laugh out loud, and his eyes fell to the surroundings, where the lush bushes and dwarf trees Trees block the view and provide cover for the tiger.Pang Miao looked at it for a long time, but he couldn't see the shadow of the tiger anywhere.

"Don't worry," Cao Lu pulled the hare on his body, "Yixiao's martial arts are not inferior to mine, he can protect your cousin well."

Pang Miao watched for a long time, but finally came a few hares, bouncing around and having fun on the grass.

Cao Lu nudged Pang Miao with his elbow, "Do you want to catch a hare?"

Pang Miao glanced at the pheasant and hare, and refused to admit defeat.He shot again, just about to let go and shoot the arrow, but he didn't want Cao Lu to hold his hand firmly.

"The rabbits here jump faster than those in other places, so when you shoot," Cao Lv held Pang Miao's hand and pulled the string back. "It must be like this to make the arrow fly faster."

The white light flashed and hit the target. The rabbit next to it was frightened and ran away in a panic.

"Look, did you catch it?"

Pang Miao looked at Cao Lu's half-smile face, "I'll try it myself." He looked at the grass, but except for a dead rabbit, the others had already disappeared.

"Okay." Cao Lu nodded, and put his arms around Pang Miao's waist naturally, "Be careful, you will break your leg if you fall off the tree."

Pang Miao twisted uncomfortably, but Cao Lv intensified and hugged him even tighter.

"If you move again, you will really fall." Cao Lu warned, his eyes were deep and his face was serious.

Another rabbit appeared under the tree, and Cao Lv's face looked like a staid old man in an academy, who couldn't tolerate any discord with etiquette. Pang Miao simply pretended to forget that there was such a thing, and practiced arrows on his own. Lv occasionally pointed out a word or two, and after shooting four more arrows, he finally managed to hit the rabbit. After a while, four or five corpses lay dead under the tree.

"It's easy to understand, very good." Cao Lu praised, but his face was still stern.

"It was General Cao who instructed me." Pang Miao frowned, feeling something was wrong, coughed a few times, "I think the beast has already left, shall we go down? The time agreed with my cousin is coming soon."

Cao Lu listened intently for a moment, and the only response was the chirping of birds.

"Okay, let's go down."

Landing on the flat ground, Cao Lu let go of his hand without changing his face, and continued to lean on the tree trunk, watching Pang Miao clean up the hare.

"Hoo--", another thunderous roar came out of nowhere, and Pang Miao was so frightened that his feet were unsteady, and he bumped into Cao Lv's arms impartially.
