sorry for his sister-in-law."By the way, sister-in-law, you and mother were home yesterday, nothing happened, right"He only just thought to ask.Just as Mu was about to speak of how the willow clan had...Chapter 1156: As Long as You're Satisfied
Herel felt stifled the whole journey. This time, having hunted a young goat, he was ecstatic, feeling that he could finally hold his head high in front of everyone.
He, who wouldn't normally go and pick up prey himself, directly stopped his subordinates from running to retrieve the goat. Fang Jinshu successfully applied medicinal powder onto the kid, which also entered He Lier's body.
Zongyu looked at Zhao Xingzhou in the distance, frowning in confusion. Something felt off.
When Hellie ran back, Zhao Xingzhou, who had originally been hiding in the woods, actually followed along. Zongyu felt even more uneasy about this.
"Marquis Wu Ding, open your eyes and see clearly, even without your help, this prince can still catch the prey."
"I don't need you to follow me at all!"
With an unreadable gaze, Zong Yu withdrew his eyes and merely nodded in a perfunctory manner towards Hellie.
"Well then, the prince may hunt himself."
"Zhuge Yun, let's go."
He turned and walked away, leaving in a very abrupt and decisive manner. Herllet was left completely bewildered, with an expression of displeasure plastered on his face.
Only after Zong Yu walked away did he gnash his teeth and ask.
"This Wuding Hou is so strange. What was he thinking, following me around like that"
He, the one who forced himself upon me and wouldn't be refused, is now the one who says he's leaving.
Wuding Hou doesn't seem like the type of person who would do such a boring thing.
Hellriegel subconsciously turned his head to look around, but he didn't see anything unusual.
"Your Highness, perhaps those contestants from Dayi who had their prey snatched by you came to complain to Marquis Wu Ding, that's why he has been following you all this way, causing havoc in your hunts countless times."
"These incompetent people from Daxi, unable to hit their prey themselves, rely on others to take the blame for them. No wonder Daxi's national strength declines day by day, truly a generation worse than the last!"
He rel listened to his subordinates and felt it made sense. Indeed, if not for this reason, why would the Marquis of Wuding follow him all the way
He hadn't done anything yet, just messing around and bothering him while he was hunting.
Seeing the kid goat in his hands, Hellier's face broke into a proud smile once more.
Even if he comes to cause trouble, this prince still relies on his own true skill to hunt down prey.
Her lieutenant immediately began showering him with flattery.
"Indeed, Your Highness is unmatched in valor. How could the Marquis of Wuding possibly threaten you"
Heller raised his hand to silence them for a moment.
"Let's count how many prey we've taken down before. This prince is tired."
The subordinate immediately replied, "My lord, with the addition of this kid goat, our number of game is far beyond anyone else. This hunt's first place is undoubtedly yours, my lord."
Herel laughed with satisfaction.
Okay, that's it for today. You all did well today. At tonight's bonfire gathering, everyone gets a jug of fine wine!
"Thank you, Your Highness!"
Hellie led his men back to the camp, only then did Zongyu walk out from a distance.
Zhao Yun followed closely behind him.
"My Lord, I don't quite understand."
"You've wasted so much time trailing after him. He's bagged far more game than we have. Are you really going to let him take first place"
“Actually, not all those players who had their prey stolen were just Daxee's sons. Hellrie steals things indiscriminately, it doesn't matter who you are. You don't need to stand up for them and waste our time hunting.”
Zongyu shook his head.
"It's not for this."
He turned back to look, walking to where Zhao Xingzhou had just been standing. Sure enough, there were still footprints there.
He crouched down and took a close look. Zhao Yun, seeing this, also crouched down.
"How could there be a footprint here Could it be that besides us and Hellie and their subordinates, someone else was secretly following us just now"
Zongyu hummed in response.
"It's Zhao Xingzhou."
Zhao Yun was stunned. "It's Zhao the Guard Then why did he sneak around He could have just come over directly."
He lowered his head and took another look at the footprints, suddenly noticing something amiss. His expression immediately turned grave.
"No, Lord, these are not Zhao Guard's footprints."
Zongyu had long since noticed this. He had been looking at the depth, not the size of the footprints, from the moment he started observing.
"Zhao the Guard is a grown man, how could he have such small footprints."
"This looks more like a woman's footprint."
Zhao Yun finished his sentence and looked up at the Marquis, only to find that the Marquis's face was unusually grim.
"What's wrong, Lord"
"While it is certainly out of the ordinary for a woman to be in the hunting grounds, you needn't be so angry."
Zhongyu, without a word, stood up and walked to the horse's side. Then he spurred it on and galloped towards the camp tents.
Zhao Yun quickly followed up, while following he also shouted that it's a pity that the first place was given to Hellie and so on.
Zong Yu drew his bow and arrow effortlessly, leaving Zhao Yun astonished.
"My lord, you wouldn't be planning to hunt a few animals on the way to make up for the number and surpass Herle, would you"
This is too difficult, and the speed at which the lord's horse is riding...not to mention whether or not it's even possible to hit prey at such a fast speed.
The animals in the hunting ground are too alert. They run away far before they hear the sound of hooves, they don't give you a chance to get close enough to hunt them.
Even though the Marquis was skilled with archery, after all, arrows don't have eyes. When he needed to travel and hunt for something, it would still be quite difficult, wouldn't it
Just as his words fell, Zong Yu's arrow whistled through the air, and he immediately heard the Marquis' command.
"Go get it back, quick."
Zhao Yun unconsciously nodded, although he was dumbfounded and a little disbelieving, he still quickly reined in his horse and turned towards the direction where Zong Yu's arrow had flown.
He actually saw the lord's arrow stuck in a pheasant from a mile away! The lord's archery is truly amazing!
Zhao Yun picked up the wild chicken and, as he pulled out the arrow, took a careful look to see if it really had eyes.
Otherwise, how could the Marquis have shot so accurately from such a distance.
Just as he was still marveling at the incredible sight, he heard Zongyu's voice coming from afar.
"Zhao Yun, seven hundred meters to your right front, pick him up!"
Zhao Yun widened his eyes, he got tricked again He put the wild chicken into the bag and immediately went to the next location as instructed. Sure enough, he found another wild rabbit there.
On the way back to camp, Zhao Yun had barely any time to return to Zong Yu's side. All he could hear was the Hou Ye continuously shouting at him to pick things up.
Within a radius of almost five hundred meters, there would be one. Zhao Yun had never felt that there were so many prey in this hunting ground before.
Before, when he went hunting, if he could catch four or five animals in an afternoon, he thought it was a pretty good harvest.
In just a short while, his empty sack was almost full, probably seven or eight.
These wild chickens and rabbits are usually so clever, aren't they Today they all seem to have gone daft.
By the time Zhao Yun finished gathering all the arrows, he was exhausted. That's when he realized the most terrifying thing about the Marquis wasn't his ability to shoot targets miles away, but his uncanny accuracy at hitting one target within a thousand paces. This allowed him to keep Zhao Yun from catching up.
By the time he reached the camp, Zhao Yun was covered in dirt and leaves, emerging from the forest. Zongyu sat on his horse waiting there.
"My Lord, all the game has been recovered."
He was exhausted.
Zongyu nodded. "Hard work, enough"
Zhao Yun nodded quickly, "Enough! This time, the honor of taking the head belongs to Lord Hou."
"Hmm, satisfied" Zongyu replied.
After he finished speaking, he pulled tight on the reins and turned his horse's head toward the tent of Marquis Wuding.ot just saying this casually," said the village head, his face grave."Last night, I thought about it all night."What could be more important than the survival and safety of every villager in this enti...
