Chapter 334 Barbarian
At the same time, Luo Ji, who didn't know about these things, was taking a group of people out of the city to hunt after a long absence. Thinking about it carefully, he really hadn't exercised properly for a while. After a little arrangement, he still got himself some regular activities to prevent himself from losing his skills and physique because he has not been active for too long. Hunting is obviously one of them.
However, the activity of hunting is not as simple as it is said. Except for some ferocious beasts that will actively attack people, other wild animals are very alert. It can be said that they are separated by a long distance. Immediately after the movement, searching for prey is a long and boring process for a hunter...
"Your Majesty, look over there..."
On the side, He Liang, the captain of the guard team, lowered his voice unconsciously. Luo Ji looked in the direction He Liang pointed, and then narrowed his eyes, only to see the shadow of a roe deer in the bushes in the distance. .
"Your eyes are good." Luo Ji praised He Liang softly, and then took off the longbow behind him with a backhand. Luo Ji was undoubtedly quite confident in his archery skills. shoot!
At that time, I heard the roe deer in the distance let out a cry of grief, but it failed to kill it with one arrow. The bushes were too obstructing the view, so it probably failed to hit the key point directly. In this regard, Luo Ji's face disappeared. A little flustered, he turned his hands, and another arrow was fired.
The arrow sank into the bushes, making it impossible for him to confirm whether he hit or not, but what can be confirmed is that the vitality of the roe deer is indeed tenacious enough, but after thinking about it, in the animal world of the weak and the strong, the vitality is not tenacious enough, basically It has become food in the mouths of other beasts.
Looking at the roe deer that threw off its hoofs and ran towards the depths of the woods, Luo Ji did not rush to chase after him. After all, he was half an ancient person, and he also had a lot of experience in hunting. It has already been hit by an arrow, and there will undoubtedly be blood trails along the way. Let it run for a while, and then while consuming its physical strength, it may be running and running, and it will die from excessive blood loss.
As his thoughts flew around, Luo Ji immediately got off his horse. In the forest in front of him, it was very inconvenient to ride a horse. Moreover, riding a horse to chase the escaped prey would be too noisy. In this environment, the two legs under his feet were the most important. A useful mobile tool.
The guards clearly understood this. After leaving three people to look after the horses, the rest followed Luo Ji to the bush where the roe deer had been. After getting close, Luo Ji quickly found a small beach near the bush. Bloodstains, the amount of bleeding is not large, the arrow is estimated to have hit the back buttocks or thighs.
After clearly discerning the direction of the roe deer's hoof print, Luo Ji soon found the second pool of blood after following the trail for a while. , so...
"It looks like the second arrow was hit. Two arrows hit in a row. According to the blood loss, the roe deer won't be able to run far." Luo Ji, who got up again, led the team and walked in front, while the other guards followed behind. , did not disturb their Majesty's interest.
He Liang and others knew very well in their hearts that their Majesty unexpectedly liked hunting, a wild activity. For many people, the process of finding and chasing prey might be very boring and boring, but their Majesty was unexpectedly He likes this dullness, the feeling of approaching his prey little by little like this, and the sense of anticipation that rises in his heart just makes him want to stop.
The bloodstains left along the road became shorter and shorter, which means that the roe deer ran slower, or could not run anymore. "It should be nearby, right?"
Just as Luo Ji was thinking about it, a sound of breaking through the air suddenly came from the woods!
"Be careful, Your Majesty!"
Between the lightning and flint, the guard captain He Liang, who was standing beside him, was quick-witted. He drew the bronze sword from his scabbard from his waist and swept the flying spear out with a single strike.
And Luo Ji, who was thinking about something else, reacted quickly at this moment. He didn't think too much. After simply judging the direction the spear was flying, he saw that Luo Ji directly bent his bow. Arrow, a precise shot is already out of the string!
Accompanied by the shot arrows, there was a scream from a big tree in the distance, and a native who was still wrapped in animal skin fell from the tree, and the one who attacked him. Calling people, it is also at this moment that the real body is officially revealed...
"It's a barbarian from the north!" Without any nonsense, the seven guards accompanying them pulled out the bronze swords around their waists at the same time, and the two sides instantly confronted each other.
Luo Ji also looked at the other side from this moment. There were about fifteen or sixteen people on the other side. All of them were still wrapped in fairly thick animal skins, and their faces were painted with strange dyes. And the roe deer lying behind the gang of barbarians and the two arrows stuck in the corpse fully proved that it was his prey.
The opponent has an advantage in numbers, but their side is better equipped with better equipment. Luo Ji is basically not panicking, but in a fight, casualties will inevitably occur. This is not the situation he wants to see. Thinking of this, Luo Ji suddenly said, "Leave the prey, you can go."
He has been in a high position for a long time, and Luo Ji's tone has an undeniable domineering, and their Myriad Realms Civilization and this group of barbarians have been at war for a long time, and the other party can understand him. When people's eyes swept over him, there was a bit of obvious fear in their eyes. The previous arrow that was like a god's help really scared them.
Looking at the guards who were wearing leather armor and holding bronze swords, they didn't seem to be easy to deal with. For a while, the other party didn't want to fight, and I saw one of the men who was suspected of being the leader waved his hand and brought him with him. After the roe deer was left behind, the buddy who was injured by the arrow quickly fled towards the depths of the woods.
"Your Majesty?" Looking at the retreating backs of the group, He Liang cast a questioning look at Luo Ji.
Luo Ji shook his head. The savages seemed to run away without looking back. In fact, out of the corner of their eyes, they were always paying attention to what was behind them. If they did something at this time, the fight that could have been avoided would have to be fought. Now, fifteen or sixteen barbarians, what if they were killed? Can you hit the opponent's tribe? No, then this battle basically means nothing to him.
After watching the savages run away, Luo Ji obviously lost the mood to continue hunting, and raised his chin, "Take the roe deer, let's go."
