"I! Want! Enter! Hunt! Hunt! Squad! "
Fang Zhengzhi's voice reverberated around the Southern Mountain Village's spacious square. Even though his voice wasn't too loud, it shook the hearts of all the Southern Mountain Village villagers.
"Hunting squad?!"
"He said … he said he wants to enter the hunting squad?"
"Oh my god, he's only seven years old!"
Upon hearing Fang Zhengzhi's words, the villagers looked at each other in disbelief.
Village Chief Meng Bai was the first to regain his senses. Looking at Fang Houde who was still in a daze, he muttered softly, "Houde … you have a good son!"
When Qin Xuelian heard the discussions around her, her entire body began to tremble. Her beautiful eyes looked at Fang Zhengzhi, then looked at Fang Houde who was lying in front of her, and tears began to flow out once again …
…
Very quickly, news of Fang Zhengzhi wanting to enter the hunting squad spread throughout the entire Southern Mountain Village like a gust of wind. When some of the elders who never left their houses heard this news, their faces were filled with disbelief.
But, the reality of Fang Zhengzhi breaking the green rock with one punch was witnessed by tens of people.
"This is too unbelievable, how did this child Zhengzhi do it? Don't tell me … he accessed Dao? "
"How is this possible! I believe that the rock had already cracked open, coupled with the fact that this child Zhengzhi saw his own father injured, he unleashed his potential in anger! "
"No matter what, even if there was a crack on the rock, breaking it open with one punch is not something a seven year old child can do!"
"That's right! Such brute strength, this is much stronger than when I was young! "
Voices of discussion spread throughout the Southern Mountain Village. The villagers all began to praise the Fang family for producing a brute strength Fang Zhengzhi.
But wherever the wind blew, there would always be some broken rocks flying.
For example, Mrs Li was extremely displeased. "Isn't it just brute strength? He can't even enter the Hall of Dao, he definitely won't be able to pass the Law of Dao examinations in the future, so what if he has strength? He still has to hunt for the rest of his life! "
On the other hand, Li Zhuangshi was rather worried these few days. He would occasionally look at Li Huer and sigh. No one knew what he was thinking …
Village Chief Meng Bai sat on the horse carriage heading into the county. His eyes gazed at the continuous mountain peaks outside the carriage. Somewhat annoyed, he placed the tobacco pipe in his hand into his mouth and took a deep puff, spitting out a thick cloud of smoke.
"Old Fang family … This old man has let you down! It's all my fault for not being able to see the potential of this child. However, it's too late to say anything now. The quota for the Hall of Dao has already been submitted. To change it … is simply too difficult … "
…
In the mud house of the Fang family, Qin Xuelian carefully washed away the blood stains on Fang Houde's body. Then, she sat beside Fang Zhengzhi.
"Zheng 'er … You … Do you really want to join the hunting squad?" Qin Xuelian looked at Fang Zhengzhi with a complicated expression. After what happened in the plaza, she did not know how to communicate with her son.
Treat Fang Zhengzhi as an adult? But he was only seven years old.
Treat him as a child? That didn't seem appropriate. Because, Fang Zhengzhi was about to enter the mountain to hunt. That was the lifeline of the entire Southern Mountain Village …
"Yes, mother!" Fang Zhengzhi nodded. He understood what Qin Xuelian was thinking. However, there were some things that he had to do. Now that Fang Houde had fallen, he had to stand up. He had to support this family in its most difficult time!
"But, you are only seven years old now …" Qin Xuelian hesitated.
"Mother, don't worry, I will be careful! Furthermore, didn't village chief say that? Now that I am in the hunting squad, all the prey I hunt belongs to me. Father is injured now, how can I not eat some meat? "Fang Zhengzhi comforted his mother.
Rationally, he knew that what he did was somewhat impulsive. The Cang Ling Mountain was filled with danger. Even though he had some breakthroughs, but if he met any big beasts, it would still be difficult to defend himself.
Most importantly, he didn't have any fighting techniques with wild beasts. In his previous life, he didn't even fight with dogs? Now he suddenly wanted to hunt wild beasts?
This was really unbearable.
But, after making such a decision, he didn't regret it.
Fortunately, the villagers of the Southern Mountain Village were rather simple and honest. Furthermore, Fang Houde was injured first, so even though he did something shocking, no one questioned his sudden increase in strength.
Then, the next thing to consider was how to ascend the mountain, and how to stay on the mountain for a long period of time. Not only must he hunt, but he must also ensure his safety …
Fang Zhengzhi had some understanding of the hunting methods of the Southern Mountain Village hunting squad.
It was a very rigid method. Set up a few small traps at the crossroads, then, the entire hunting squad huddled together and wandered around the Cang Ling Mountain. When they met any prey, they would open their bows and shoot arrows.
It could be said to be extremely primitive!
This wasn't the method that Fang Zhengzhi wanted to use. Because, if they met a strong beast this way, the entire squad would be in danger. If they were lucky, they could survive for a month or two. But, could they survive for a lifetime?
Some of the elderly in the village had some old injuries, and some were even missing arms or legs. These were the repercussions!
He had to change this hunting method!
When Fang Zhengzhi thought of this, he fell into deep thought. What could he do to both hunt and ensure his safety? Furthermore, there was another hidden danger. That was the Blue Fire Wolf that had been roaming around the outskirts of the Cang Ling Mountain!
Qin Xuelian looked at Fang Zhengzhi's slightly furrowed brows and her lips twitched.
"Zhengzhi, actually, mother picked up a gold ingot a few days ago …"
"Mother, leave that gold ingot for father to recover from his injuries!" Fang Zhengzhi knew what Qin Xuelian wanted to say. Since he had already stood out, he didn't intend to hide anything.
"You … You know …" Qin Xuelian couldn't hide the surprise in her eyes at this moment. Then, she recalled the day when she saw the child wrapped up like a "dumpling" on the high platform. Suddenly, she understood.
When she looked at Fang Zhengzhi, her expression was extremely complicated.
"Zhengzhi has grown up …"
"Mother, don't worry and leave this family to me!"
Fang Zhengzhi didn't say anything else after he finished. Because, he knew very clearly that he had to take this step sooner or later. It was just a matter of time.
Cang Ling Mountain? Blue Fire Wolf! I heard that the skin of the Blue Fire Wolf … is worth quite a lot of silver? Then, let me see your true colors!
…
Half a month later, in the morning …
Qin Xuelian, dressed in a cotton robe, carefully tidied up Fang Zhengzhi's animal skin jacket.
There were many venomous snakes and insects on the Cang Ling Mountain. In order to enter the mountain to hunt, one couldn't wear too thin clothes. At this moment, Fang Zhengzhi wore a pair of high leather boots on his feet, a pair of leather gloves on his hands, an animal skin jacket that reached his thighs, and even an animal skin hat on his head.
From afar, he looked just like a small mountain beast.
Even though …
There were many patches on it!
After a period of rest, and with the help of the medicines that the village head brought back from the county, some of the villagers in the hunting group who were slightly injured had basically recovered. Fang Houde could also slowly get off the bed and walk a few steps.
"After entering the mountain, if you see any big beasts, you … hide at the back!" Fang Houde's voice rang out from within the house.
Fang Zhengzhi was slightly taken aback. With his father's simple character, to be able to say something like this, it must have taken a lot of courage.
"Father, don't worry, I will always hide at the back!" Fang Zhengzhi carried the large basket that he had already tidied up on the ground, and hid a small dagger in his leather boots, then directly left the house.
"Zhengzhi, you didn't bring a bow …" Just as he stepped out, Qin Xuelian's voice rang out.
"I don't know how to!" Fang Zhengzhi twitched his mouth.
"Zhengzhi … knife … you didn't bring a knife either …"
"I also don't know how to …"
"This … you didn't bring anything, how are you going to hunt?"
"I have this!" Fang Zhengzhi pointed at the large basket behind him, then took out the dagger hidden in his leather boots, and waved it in front of Qin Xuelian …
