The Record of Swordsmen in the Late Sui and Early Tang Dynasties

Chapter 427 Four hundred twelve: Houjiazhuang, the second small hunting ([-])
Hou Hongsheng laughed and said, "Third brother-in-law, look at how fat these sheep are. Each one weighs only sixty to seventy catties. How can you eat such a lot of meat for a meal!"

Tie Niu laughed and said, "Brother, do you dare to guarantee that we are the only ones who eat meat? What if other people eat meat!"

"Other people! That's not the case!"

Tie Niu laughed and said: "You will know at night, if you don't believe me, just take a look!
Anyway, I don't think it's just the few of us who eat it! "

Duan Wuji laughed and said: "Brother Tieniu, what's the use of arguing about this!

You see, the sun is going to set soon, and you are not in a hurry. If you wait like this, you will not be able to hunt anything else when it gets dark. "

"Well, that's fine, let's go ahead and have a look."

Several people walked forward for half a mile, only to see that Duan Wuji hurriedly hung the bow on his waist, and pulled out the sword from behind with a swipe.

"Brother Tieniu, there are wild boars moving not far ahead, and there are quite a few of them! I heard them all!"

Duan Niu became excited when he heard this.

"That's right, that's great. If you can kill a few wild boars, then you won't be able to eat them all tonight."

After finishing speaking, Tie Niu also hung the bow on his waist, took three steps and two steps to get away from the horse, and stretched out his hand to take off his big stick.

Tie Niu turned around and said to everyone: "You all pay attention, everyone knows that the wild boar is especially not easy to mess with!

People often say: one pig, two leopards and three tigers, especially the adult wild boar, they are not afraid of the sky and the earth!You guys should pay attention to safety. "

Several people were shocked when they heard this!When they heard that there were many wild boars in this herd, they were so frightened that their faces turned yellow.

For a while I didn't know what to do.

Duan Wuji saw it and said with a smile: "You guys don't need to be too nervous, just stay here first, and call you after our brothers hunt them all down!
As long as you stay here and don't move, the danger won't be too great.

Brother Tieniu, let's go, if the wild boar runs away in a while, it will be troublesome! "

Two people, one with a stick and the other with a sword, rushed straight to a small ravine not far ahead.

When I entered the small ravine, I saw that there were indeed four wild boars picking up wild fruits on the ground to eat. There were two big wild boars and two half-big pigs.

It seems that these four wild boars are a family!

The three-inch-long tusks of the big wild boar were protruding from its mouth. While eating wild fruits on the ground, it looked around very vigilantly.

When Tieniu saw it, he pulled Duan Wuji with his hand.

"Brother, let's kill these four wild boars today, there is no use keeping them.

Brother, what do you say! "

Duan Wuji listened and nodded.

"Well, that's fine!"

The two of them glanced at each other, immediately exerted their strength together, and rushed towards the four wild boars.

When the four wild boars saw someone rushing over, they raised their heads and bared their fangs and rushed towards the two of them.

This wild boar was extremely ferocious. The reason why the two of them didn't use bows and arrows was that it was difficult for arrows to shoot such a big wild boar to death at once.

Neither side showed any weakness, when the wild boar rushed in front of him, Duan Wuji dodged to the side and chopped off the pig's head with his sword.

With just one blow of the sword, the wild boar crawled on the ground and remained motionless.

At the same time, Tie Niu aimed at another wild boar rushing forward with a big iron rod, smashing the wild boar's head with just one blow.

The wild boar fell to the ground and kicked and died.

The two of them didn't look at the two wild boars any more, and immediately chased after the other two young wild boars.

When the two little wild boars saw the big wild boar fell down, they immediately rushed to the mountain in panic, as fast as lightning!

Can these two make them run away!After the two caught up, they were quickly and completely dealt with with one stick and one sword!
When Tieniu saw it, he shouted to the back: "Hongsheng, come here quickly! There is nothing else to do now."

When several people heard the shout, they immediately rushed over with their horses.

When everyone saw the wild boars on the ground, they were overjoyed.

Hou Hongsheng and his eldest brother-in-law tied the hind legs of two young wild boars and carried them to the horses. The two big wild boars tied their legs with ropes and carried them back with poles.

Duan Wuji and Tie Niu carried the big one, and Hou Hongsheng and his two brothers-in-law carried the other smaller sow. The two horses were not led by anyone.

This horse is already very human, Jing followed behind obediently!

Hou Hongsheng and the three of them grinned.

While carrying it, Hou Hongsheng panted and said, "This wild boar is too big, it weighs about three hundred catties!
If we have to carry it home, it won't exhaust us to death! "

Tie Niu laughed and said, "Hurry up and train, the less you train, the more boring you will be! How can this work!"

Several people staggered and walked straight towards the house.

When we got home, the sun had already set over the mountain, and I saw that Hou Jia and Hou Shang had brought firewood and started to light the fire.

Several people put the prey in the yard, and Tie Niu began to find a knife to skin the sheep and kill the wild boar. Several children also ran out of the house and ran around the pot.

The whole yard suddenly became lively.

When Duan Wuji saw that he couldn't do anything, he immediately turned and went back to the house.

When lighting the lamp, a strong fragrance floated in.

Hou Guantang walked in cheerfully.

"Wuji! The meat will be cooked soon, let's go, let's go out and wait for the meat.

I have hunted so many prey today, I can't finish eating this year! "

The two came to the small courtyard to take a look, and saw that there were so many people in the courtyard!There were at least twenty people in the whole yard.

Duan Wuji didn't really know who they were.

Several torches have been lit in the whole house at this time, illuminating the small courtyard brightly!

It didn't take long, and several large pots of steaming cooked meat were served, one pot of wild goat meat, one pot of wild boar.

People took bowls to copy the meat and ate it!Several children clamored for meat.

When Tieniu saw them, everyone filled them with a big bowl, and then they blocked the little mouths.

The children stopped arguing.

Hou Guantang preoccupiedly poured a large bowl of wine for everyone, and people ate meat with the wine, not to mention the joy.

After people had eaten and drank enough, everyone left one after another.

Hou Guantang and his family were left in the whole courtyard. In addition, Hou Guantang's two nephews, Hou Jia and Hou Shang, did not leave.

Hou Guantang looked at the eldest son-in-law, the second eldest son-in-law and his two nephews and said, "You guys have to work hard tonight. Skin all the wild boars and cook them. By the way, you can get some meat back to eat tomorrow." go!"

Several people were overjoyed when they heard this, and said in unison: "Yes, yes, don't worry about this matter, we will cook them all tonight!
You go to sleep! "

In the morning of the next day, Duan Wuji and Tie Niu got up, only to see a few people still busy talking, and the cooked meat was all over the chopping board.

When several people saw Duan Wuji and the others got up, they ran over to say hello to them.

The two responded one by one.

The time was not too long, and the old couple Hou Guantang also got up. The two of them looked at so much pork, and they were so happy. The time was not long, and the eldest sister and second sister brought a few children over again.

A few people started making breakfast, and a few children started messing around in the yard!
The time is not long, breakfast is ready, and the whole family gathers around the table to start eating breakfast.

Duan Wuji looked at it, and saw a big pot of fried meat!

What can the mountain people eat!This big bowl of meat is already the best food.

After breakfast, Tie Niu said with a smile: "Father-in-law, mother-in-law, we have already eaten this breakfast, and I have reported Xixun to you, let's go!"

"Ah? I'm leaving now! Stay a few more days!"
You see, we also have this kind of meat in our house, let’s fry a few dishes and stay longer!
Let's go, why rush! "

Tie Niu shook his head.

"No, let's go, we want to walk around and see the world.

If you have meat to eat here, then I can rest assured! "

With that said, Tie Niu opened the bag, counted 500 taels of silver from it, and put it down on the table.

"Father-in-law, this is my filial piety to you, you can take it for retirement!

Don't be old and have no money to spend!If I have more money in the future, I will honor you more! "

When the old Houtou saw that the iron bull gave so much money again, he was really happy.

"My son-in-law, what are you doing? Our family is not very difficult now, and the problem of food and clothing is still not a problem. You might as well take it back and spend it!

If there is a big difficulty, I will go to you to ask for it again. See if this will work! "

Tie Niu shook his head with a smile.

"Father-in-law, our two places are thousands of miles apart, and it's not very easy to go back and forth. Don't be polite to me. I have money now, so I should give you two. You'd better put them away!"

The elder sister smiled and said: "Father, you have never been to my third sister's house, their house is not ordinary rich!

Their family is a real rich family!

Since he wants to give it to you, you should put it away!

Like our sisters, you are two poor ghosts, and you are so poor, how can there be so many things to honor you!

Why!I'm ashamed to say it! "

Hou Guantang listened and nodded.

"Well, that's fine! If that's the case, then I'll put it away!

My son-in-law!Come here often when you have time!

Our old couple miss you! "

Tie Niu laughed when he heard this.

"That's for sure, I'll come back if I have the chance.

Father-in-law, mother-in-law, rest now!Our brothers are gone! "

After speaking, the two stood up!

Tie Niu pulled Duan Wuji and said, "Brother, let's go!"

Two people led the horse out of the yard, and the whole family was sent out.

The two came outside and got on their horses.

Duan Wuji asked with a smile: "Brother Tieniu, tell me, where are we two brothers going?"

Tie Niu thought for a while and said, "Where are we going? I think we should go to the Tongtian Temple to see the old Taoist master Chen!
Where are we going to play!

To be honest, we two brothers learned the skill of stepping on the snow without a trace, all thanks to other people's guidance!

Do not forget the well digger when drinking water, do you think we can forget him! "

"Well! Well then, let's go to the Tongtian Temple first, and by the way, let's climb the Huashan Mountain, which is pretty good!"

After the two discussed it, the two bowed their hands to the people who sent them out, and immediately rode their horses and ran straight to the southeast and ran down.
