Ultimate Assassin System
Chapter 004 The Legendary Waiting for a Rabbit
In the woods, Tang En first tied the pheasant with rattan to make it firm. Then he went to retrieve the hunting gear, a short wooden stick tied with slender vines and a cover made of various branches.
Yes, that trap was set by Tang En. Of course, it was completed under the guidance of the old housekeeper.
The shooting accuracy problem of the crossbow cannot be solved in a short time, let alone such a broken crossbow. So after briefly teaching Tang En some hiding techniques, the old butler gave him such a fool-like hunting device. The result was very gratifying. Tang En finally solved the serious problem of being hungry when he first arrived in another world.
The prey is caught, and the ensuing problem is how to turn it into food that can be eaten. The suggestion given by the old housekeeper is to make beggar's chicken, the method is simple and the taste is not bad. The most important thing is that you don't need to lose the chicken feathers.
However, after successfully lighting a fire and scooping up water from the village with big leaves, Tang En was a little hesitant when facing the pheasants that seemed to be resigned to their fate. He said before that he had never killed chickens and ducks, and that was really true.
Although Tang En's family background was average, his parents still loved him very much and didn't let him get involved in these things. In addition, he just graduated and has no experience in life, so he really hasn't dealt with chickens and ducks.
However, the hunger in his stomach is very real. It's a pity that he just ate a piece of rye bread on the first day he arrived in another world.
Tang En let out a long sigh: That's why people are forced out. Brother Chicken, if you fall into my hands today, you should die early and be reborn...
After rubbing his palms together twice, Tang En held down the chicken body, tightened the handle of the axe, and raised the axe up and down.
Goo! The blood splattered, and the pheasant let out a final cry.
Tang En felt that his hand was hot, but when he looked down, it was covered with chicken blood, and he couldn't help but feel loose. Unexpectedly, the chicken body without the head of the red-crested rooster actually had flapping wings and galloped away.
I wipe...
Tang En was completely dumbfounded, this damn is unscientific!
I've heard that a cooked duck can fly, but I've never seen a headless pheasant that can still run...
Fortunately, the pheasant ran wildly for dozens of meters, and after performing this final madness, it fell to the ground and was completely motionless.
After this absurd scene, things went much smoother. After a period of roasting, Tang En successfully ate the legendary beggar's chicken. The pheasant is still very nutritious, the butter is dripping, and the meat is of high quality, but without any auxiliary materials, the taste of this thing is just average. But Tang En was really hungry, and he made it himself, so he ate with relish and a sense of accomplishment.
For the next few days, Tang En will temporarily live in this forest.
He hasn't made any plans yet on how to plan his life in a foreign land. Assassin Twain doesn't want to do it. Danger is one thing, but the key is that he can't pass the test in his heart. After all, although a serious college student is second-rate, he can't do it if he is asked to take other people's lives at will for money or something.
But although he doesn't want to be a killer, he often goes to the system space. The old housekeeper gave him things, and he often practiced, firstly because he had nothing to do, and secondly because he had too many skills to overwhelm him.
The old butler didn't force him, but just took out a killer game and let him go in to complete the killer task. Although Tang En disliked being a killer, as a game fan, he would not object to this kind of virtual game.
However, the difficulty factor of this game is too high. After several days of playing, Tang En just couldn't pass a level. This made him, who has always claimed to be a game expert, very embarrassed, and devoted himself to delving into it.
The first level of the game is to steal a nobleman's sword. This goal seemed not difficult, but every time Tang En approached the noble mansion with his head, he was spotted by the guarding wolfhound, barking wildly, and the guards killed him in an instant, which made him very depressed. Fortunately, this is a virtual game, there is no keyboard and mouse, otherwise I don't know how many times he has broken it.
Noon, meal time.
Damn, it's that bastard again, don't let me catch the chance, or I'll chop you up ten times in a row! Tang En, who was cursing, carried his hunting gear and searched for the trapping place.
This time he managed to knock out a guard in a surprise attack, and climbed over the backyard wall to enter the noble mansion, but before he landed, he had no time to get excited, when there was a barking of dogs, and Tang En was once again greeted by a group of gorgeous guards who had heard the news. Killed. Nima, you said you saw the watchdog, why did you come to the backyard for a stroll.
Hey, this rabbit is quite fat, but it's a pity that I can't catch it... Tang En looked at the fat hare dozens of meters away and drooled.
Tang En subconsciously observed the surrounding environment. It was downwind, with dense forests and knee-high bushes, which was a favorable terrain for hiding... Uh, what are you thinking, you think you are the old housekeeper. Tang En secretly despised himself.
But as soon as the idea came up, Tang En couldn't help thinking about it, that's all, give it a try, there is nothing to lose anyway.
Tang En licked his lips, and walked slowly towards the hare from the side.
Concentrate, meditate, breathe, observe.
The frequency of rabbits grazing, the time of turning their heads, the distance of trees in front of them, the distance between them and the next tree, and whether there are dead branches under their feet...
Slowly, slowly.
At this moment, the eyes of Tang En, who was walking slowly, gradually became silent, and all the hiding skills taught by the old housekeeper appeared in his mind.
Walking forward for more than ten meters like a ghost, the hare didn't respond.
In the space, the old butler calmly looked at the light curtain. The corner of the mouth twitched: It's not bad, but is it so easy to get close?
Twain had already walked halfway through a distance of tens of meters.
At this time, the ears of the hare, which was grazing with its head down, moved suddenly, and looked up vigilantly at the lower side and forward.
There was just an ordinary bush, and the breeze in the forest slightly blew the leaves and made a rustling sound.
The hare twitched its nose, looked away, and continued to gnaw on the grass with its head down.
Tang En behind the tree frowned slightly. He just took a tentative step just now, but the rabbit quickly noticed him. Can't get any closer? It doesn't make sense, how did the old housekeeper get there, I can't figure it out...
Calm, calm, there must be a way.
At such a long distance, the hare lowered its head and gnawed on the grass, and I was downwind. The problem should be the sound. Just because I can't hear myself walking doesn't mean the hare can't hear it.
Then how to make the hare hear the sound without looking up? Nima, the more I thought about it, the more mysterious it became. Tang En looked up speechlessly and took a deep breath. This rabbit is not an idiot...
At this moment, a spiritual light suddenly flashed in his mind. Tang En looked up at the rushing leaves, and opened his mouth thoughtfully: Sound? sound!
Tang En raised his eyebrows, and after a while, he stepped out from behind the tree. Ten meters away, the herbivorous hare did not respond.
It worked, sure enough. Tang En suppressed the ecstasy in his heart and walked forward slowly.
In the space, the old butler nodded slightly. This kid has some talents in hiding.
Tang En is just a rookie killer who is just learning how to hide. In other words, he can't even be called a rookie. His footsteps are inevitable. The hare's long ears are not for nothing, and it can be alert to any abnormal noises around it.
But this time, the problem with the hare is precisely on no abnormality. To the hare, the sound of the forest breeze brushing the leaves from time to time was not unusual, and Tang En approached it with the sound of rustling leaves.
But, is it really so smooth? We know that the breeze in the forest is sick and slow. Maybe there are experienced people who can know the strength of the wind, but this person is definitely not the current Tang En.
When Tang En approached three meters away from the hare, the sound of rattling leaves stopped for a while.
The hare suddenly raised its head. At such a close distance, Tang En could even clearly see the sawgrass blades on the two big teeth of the three-petal mouth.
When the wind suddenly stopped, Tang En knew something was wrong, holding up the hood, he threw himself on it.
Tang En's reaction was not unpleasant, but the hare's calf kicked vigorously, the dust rose up, and it quickly passed under the cover.
Damn, it fell short! Tang En, who missed out, grinned for a while.
boom……
Before Tang En started to regret, there was a loud impact beside him.
Tang En looked to the side in astonishment, and was immediately stunned.
He had read a sentence before, saying Life is like a piece of chocolate, you never know what the next piece will taste like, and Tang En hadn't felt much at that time.
Now looking at the hare that crashed and died on the tree trunk in a panic, Tang En suddenly felt that this sentence was too fucking reasonable.
Haha, the ancients did not deceive me about the legendary waiting for the rabbit! Tang En mentioned this unlucky hare in a particularly bright mood.
Tang En's cooking techniques are average and only limited to pheasant. He doesn't want to be a beggar rabbit. Fortunately, these days, he is very familiar with the old farmers in the farm, and he will directly mention any game.
The old farmer's wife left early, and he didn't want to go to the city with his sons, so he lived by guarding a country mill. Although there is no need to worry about food and clothing, it is inevitable to be lonely. Seeing Tang En approaching with a fat hare, his eyes lit up, and he quickly picked it up.
Weighing it with his hands, the old farmer immediately smiled: This beast has good teeth, and it must weigh five pounds. Don, thanks to your blessing, I relieved my hunger today.
Tang En laughed and said: It's really not my fault. I'm lucky today. I saw this guy hit a tree by himself when I went out, haha!
Haha, Tang, you really know how to joke. Alright, I'll deal with this beast first. You go to the cellar and bring me a can of green fruit wine. Today we have to celebrate. Green fruit wine is commonly collected here by old farmers. Brewed from a kind of green fruit, it contains slightly alcohol and has a slightly sour taste.
okay.
…………
The old farmer processed these wild game very quickly. But after more than half an hour, two pots of rabbit meat came up, one stewed and the other braised, with different styles, and the taste and smell whetted the appetite.
Tang En took two earthenware cups and poured green fruit wine.
The old farmer wiped his hands and said, I will make these two flavors today. I will marinate the rest of the rabbit meat first. I will get you smoked rabbit meat tomorrow. That taste, tsk tsk...
Haha, that's a good thing. Tang En was overjoyed.
The food and wine were all on the table, but Tang En didn't rush to start, because after getting along with him for a few days, he knew that the old farmer was a devout believer and he would pray before every meal.
Thanks to the loving God of Light for giving us food...
What the old farmer believed in was the male sculpture on the roof of the church in the village, the God of Light. Except for his own use and the rent that needs to be paid, he donates everything to the chapel every month.
In the past few days, under Tang En's insinuation, he finally learned from the old farmer that this place is called Caesar Continent, and it was an era ruled by kingship and theocracy. The kingship system is similar to what Tang En saw in history books. the sovereign**.
Twain's current location is in the middle of Bran, one of the two great empires in Caesar's continent. As for the other empire, well, it is not so much an empire as a tribe, the Northern Wilderness tribe.
It is certain that one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers, and the war between Branland and the Northern Wilderness tribe continues continuously. But for the old farmer, these things were too far away. Xiaoshi Village is located in the south of the empire, and he has never seen those vicious barbarians in the Northern Wilderness in his life.
What interested Tang En the most was that he heard the existence of fighting spirit and magic from the old farmer. However, when Tang En wanted to understand in detail, he regretted that the old farmer knew very little about these two things.
Regarding magic, the old farmer only knew that magicians were noble, and the only magic he had ever seen in his life was Father York's healing. That's right, it was the kind of warm light that Tang En mistook for a portable bathroom heater. As for vindictiveness, the old farmer only heard that the highest officer here, a master knight, possessed this kind of thing.
After the old farmer finished praying, Tang En couldn't wait to taste the rabbit meal.
After eating a few pieces of rabbit meat and a glass of green fruit wine, the old farmer began to chatter habitually. The content is roughly the same as what Tang En heard a few times before, but the degree of exaggeration is slightly different.
What is the fate of the granddaughter of Old John’s family in the east of the village? Under the guidance of Father York, she joined the Church of the God of Light. A few days ago, she was sent to a distant monastery for further studies...
Or when he was a child, he saw a magician flying in the air, destroying evil monsters with a wave of his hand.
The latter is probably because he listened to some wandering bard's rap, Tang En smiled with a glass of wine, life in another world is quite interesting.
Drank it down. Dad, Mom, I'm fine here, don't worry...
