Ming Dynasty man

Chapter 5 The First Step

Suddenly, someone shouted outside: "Father! Erhu was bitten by a bear, come and see!"

Li Jing turned his head and saw a few young men dressed as hunters rushing in carrying a stretcher.

Hearing the voice, old man Chen ran out of the house in a hurry, looked at the injuries of the person on the stretcher and said, "Don't panic, big tiger! Go and call the doctor! You guys help carry Erhu inside."

"Langzhong Zhuzi has already been found!" Dui shouted while lifting it.

Everyone rushed to carry the two tigers into the house.

After entering the house, Li Jing, Dahu and others carried Erhu from the stretcher to the kang.

Erhu was already unconscious at this time, Li Jing rolled his eyes, and stretched out his hand to touch his neck for a while, felt that the pulse was still strong, so he felt relieved.

Seeing Li Jing's strange behavior, Du Hu asked suspiciously: "Father! Who is he?"

"He was passing by. By the way, what is the young man's name?" Old Man Chen said.

"Li Jing." Li Jing turned around and nodded to Duhu.

Old man Chen patted his forehead and said, "Yes! Li Jing! Look at my memory! This is my big tiger."

"Hello, Big Tiger!" Li Jing hurriedly said hello, "This brother was bitten by a bear?"

"Yeah, I was bitten by a bear while hunting in the mountains, what a fucking bad luck!" Dumb hung his head, looking at his younger brother in frustration.

Li Jing was curious, this Orion usually chooses to avoid the living area of ​​those beasts when he goes up the mountain, how could he encounter a bear?Could there be a problem?

"Brother Dahu, I'll take a look at Erhu's injuries first, we'll talk about it later!" After speaking, Li Jing slowly untied Erhu's clothes.

As the clothes were unbuttoned, Li Jing frowned slightly.Er Hu's injuries were not serious, his right arm was broken, three ribs on his right side were broken, and his left arm was bitten deeply by a bear, which was bloody and bloody.

However, as long as the bear bite wound is not infected, it should be fine for a period of time.

"Is there any wine?" Li Jing turned around and asked.

"Yes! Yes! I'll get it!" Duhu hurriedly responded.

After a while, Du Hu took the wine and handed it to Li Jing.

After smelling it, Li Jing felt that the alcohol content was not too low. He looked around and found nothing that could wipe the wound, so he poured the wine slowly on Erhu's wound.

Stimulated by this, Erhu yelled in pain, and then passed out again.

"What are you doing?" Dahu was startled, and hurriedly shouted, even old man Chen was startled.

Only then did Li Jing remember that the ancients only knew to use wine as an anesthetic, but they didn't know how to use wine to disinfect patients' wounds.

Shaking his head, Li Jing pulled the quilt over Erhu's body, and then said to old man Chen: "Uncle, this is a method I learned when I was a soldier. This wine can temporarily stabilize Erhu's injury, but Erhu brothers Your injury should be fine, don't worry."

Before the question in his mind was resolved, Li Jing immediately asked: "Brother Big Tiger, there are many beasts on this mountain, why don't you avoid them if you go hunting?"

"Oh, it's not for the 50 taels of silver!"

Dahu muttered something, but although his voice was low, Li Jing could hear it clearly, 50 taels of silver?
Did I really guess right?Now the word Xiong is too sensitive for Li Jing, "Could it be the 50 taels of silver offered by the Shen family in Lin County?"

"Brother also knows?" Duhu's eyes lit up, and he raised his head and asked.

Li Jingjing nodded, thinking that of course he knew, it was all for money, and it really belonged to his uncle. His uncle's money was all for the broken 50 taels of silver, and he was almost killed by a bear.

Sure enough, as Li Jing guessed, they also heard about the reward offered by the Shen family.

But they were also helpless, and after Li Jing learned about it, he realized that there was a reason for this, otherwise he would not have taken the risk of hunting bears.

Chen Erhu knew that old man Chen wanted to sell land for Chen Dahu to marry, so he discussed with these people to kill bears. If he got bear bile, not only would Chen Dahu get married money, but everyone's life would be easier in the future.

These people were all poor and scared, and wanted to gamble when they had such an opportunity, so they went into the mountains to hunt bears, but Chen Erhu was seriously injured if they missed the bear.

Hearing Dug's words, Li Jing secretly sighed.

Old man Chen's family was already in a difficult situation, Erhu was injured again, and it would cost a lot of money to treat the injury. This time, old man Chen might not even want to sell the land.

Li Jing pondered for a while, then suddenly stood up and said to Chen Dahu and the others: "Brother Dahu, and these brothers, let's go out and don't disturb Erhu's rest."

Chen Dahu and the others had long wanted to go out, and they also knew that it was useless to stay indoors. Instead, they made old man Chen angry, but they didn't dare to speak. Li Jing's words were exactly what they wanted.

"Hmm! Come and sit in the west room! Dahu, go to the village to see if the doctor is here?" Old man Chen nodded and said.

"Oh!" Chen Dahu responded, and then flirted with the brothers, who hurriedly got up and left the house.

"Uncle, don't be sad, Brother Erhu's injury is nothing serious, he will be fine after a while." Li Jing patted Old Man Chen's hand and said.

Old man Chen nodded, but his expression was blank.

Li Jing knew that old man Chen was sad, so it was useless to say anything at this time.

Walking out of the house, seeing Chen Dahu and others walking towards the west room, Li Jing quickly came to Dahu's side and said in a low voice, "Take the brothers and wait for me outside."

Chen Dahu didn't know why, but he nodded anyway.

After Chen Dahu and others left the room, Li Jing went into the west room to untie his baggage, and opened the only modern thing he had brought from ancient times, the iron box, and a multifunctional military dagger.

The iron box is not very big, but it actually contains a military compound bow.

Assembled the compound bow, took out the quiver, and then gently closed the door.

Seeing Li Jing coming out with a bow and arrow behind his back, Chen Dahu looked at Li Jing suspiciously: "Brother, what are you trying to do?"

"Shh!" Li Jing made a silent gesture, and hastily answered in a low voice: "Hush your voice! Don't let uncle hear you! Talk outside!"

After speaking, Li Jing waved to Chen Dahu and others, and walked out of the courtyard.

Guessing that old man Chen couldn't hear him, Li Jing stopped and said, "Brother Big Tiger, where did you meet Xiong? Take me there!"

"Brother, you don't want to die. The two tigers are already like this, and you still dare to go? If we didn't have a lot of people today and made a noise together to scare the bear away, the two tigers would have died." Dahu said.

"Brother, don't worry, I'm sure if I dare to go, you just need to take me to find the bear, and you don't have to worry about the rest. Um...Brother Big Tiger! When the doctor arrives in a while, why don't you go?" I have to help with something, you stay at home and help uncle take care of Erhu, these brothers can just follow me, and when the bear is beaten, help me carry it back." Li Jing said.

Li Jing's words were understated, but Du Hu and the others looked at each other in blank dismay after hearing this.

Looking at the expressions of these people, Li Jing reckoned that they took him for an idiot, so he smiled and said, "Don't worry, it's not like I didn't see that Erhu was injured like that, and how could he still be willing to die?"

Seeing that Li Jing was so determined, Chen Dahu and others were right to say this, he was not a fool, no one would throw their lives away for nothing.

Du Hu and the others were silent, but Li Jing knew that they had already acquiesced, and immediately waved: "Let's go."

Chen Dahu and those people looked at each other, nodded to each other, and those people hurried to keep up.

There were four people following Li Jing, two of them were brothers, one was Chen Dazhuang and the other was Chen Erzhuang.The other two were named Chen Shuanzi and Chen Xiaoshan.

These four people didn't have much heart, and after a while, Li Jing got Lao Di'er out, and each of them explained the situation at home.

After walking for about half an hour, Li Jing and the others arrived at the edge of the mountain forest, took a rest, and then headed into the mountain.

As the forest gradually became denser, the four hunters began to be cautious, stopping from time to time to check carefully.

"Stop, there are footprints here, everyone be careful, that bear just walked past here." Chen Dazhuang waved his hand to stop everyone and said.

Li Jing also had special training in the mountains and forests, but that was not hunting after all, and the hunting experience was not as good as these hunters.

"Which one is the bear's footprint? Show me." Li Jing said.

"Here! You see, although there are fallen leaves on them, these leaves are obviously different from other places. It is obvious that something heavy has stepped on them. I will push the leaves away for you. See, this is the mark of a bear's paw, Follow this mark, there are many more. This bear is not small, everyone be careful." Chen Dazhuang said while leaning on the ground and pointing to the marks in front.

Li Jing knelt down to examine it carefully, only to see that the places Chen Dazhuang pointed to were indeed different from other places.

"How far do you think this bear is from us?" Li Jing asked in a deep voice.

"It's hard to say. Last time we came here, we found it in the tree hole in front. Now we can't say for sure. Maybe it's nearby, maybe it's far away, but as long as we follow the footprints, we will definitely find it." Chen Dazhuang Said.

"Okay, everyone be careful, follow me and don't move around." Li Jing stood up and said.

Chen Dazhuang and the others nodded hurriedly, and they proceeded carefully and searched slowly.

After Li Xu left again, a deep voice suddenly came from the front.

Li Jing's heart shuddered, here we come!

Immediately, he bent his bow and set an arrow to aim at the sound, and following a bear howl, a tall black bear rushed towards Li Jing and others.

With a sound of "Chi!", Li Jing decisively let go of the bowstring, and the sharp arrow shot directly into the giant bear's open mouth.

But the bear didn't die, it let out a wild howl, and continued to pounce on it.

Li Jing didn't even move, he took an arrow with his backhand and shot it again.

This arrow shot the bear's right eye, after the sharp arrow was poured in, the bear's eye shot out with white and red.

Borrowing inertia, the bear staggered towards Li Jing, the bear's paw stretched out halfway, and finally couldn't support it, roared wildly, and fell to the ground with a bang.

Seeing Li Jing shoot and kill the giant bear lightly, Chen Dazhuang and others were all dumbfounded.

Li Jing smiled, walked up to the bear corpse, reached out and pulled out the arrow, wiped off the blood on the bear, and put it into the quiver.

The arrows that Li Jing used were specially made, only twenty, so naturally they couldn't be discarded casually, but the compound bow was also in the shape of a bow, although it looked different from the bows and arrows of the Ming Dynasty, Du Hu and the others didn't have any doubts in their hearts.

They just felt that the bow was different from the one they used, even the arrows were different. How could they know that this composite bow and arrows were made of special materials, and after special making, they were extremely powerful, and they were not made by ancient bows and arrows at all. Comparable to the ability to successfully hunt black bears, this compound bow contributed the most.
