The prey Li An had hunted alone was equal to the total number of prey hunted by the other twenty-one people, or even more. It was such a great achievement that Lao Guo and the other guards who had participated in the hunt were all stunned.
"Wow, one person actually hunted so many, more than all of us combined. Just the great tits alone, there were more than a dozen of them. That's not easy. The great tits are very small, so it's not easy to hunt them. And the white fox, which is a very cunning prey, was actually caught alive. That's amazing. I, Lao Guo, am completely convinced."
Watching the prey Ang Lee had hunted, Lao Guo expressed his admiration from the bottom of his heart. He really admired Ang Lee. Except for Ang Lee, no one else had such a great ability. His hunting skill was really too high.
Naturally, they didn't know that Li An had used a newly developed secret weapon. It was this powerful secret weapon that allowed Li An to have such great power. If it wasn't for this powerful secret weapon, Li An wouldn't have been able to have such a great harvest, especially when he had surpassed the others by a large margin. It could be said that he had taken the lead and crushed everyone else.
Ang Lee smiled and said, "It's no big deal. After all, it's winter, and there aren't many prey in the woods. If we hunt in autumn, we can get at least five times more. Haha!"
When hunting, Ang Lee deliberately aimed at the secondary parts of the prey, such as the wings of the birds and the legs of the foxes. In this way, the bullets would go through them directly without leaving too much damage. If the wounds were not carefully opened, no one would find any problem, and they might think it was caused by an arrow.
All in all, Ang Lee easily fooled Lao Guo and the guards, and made them think that Ang Lee had hunted so many prey with a crossbow, which made them admire Ang Lee a lot.
"This white fox is very cute. Let's keep it for fun. As for the pheasants, white rabbits, and birds, we can make them into dishes to go with the wine. Let's have a good drink tonight. We have nothing to do these days, except hunting and sightseeing. Who told the horse gangs to walk so slowly? "
Ang Lee said.
"What's the point of raising a white fox? Why don't we just stew it and eat it together? That way, we can have one more dish."
Lao Guo said with a smile.
Ang Lee shook his head and said, "If we don't count the fox meat, we won't be able to finish it. Let's not eat it! Keep it and bring it back for Madam to play with. Such a good-looking fox is rare. It would be a pity to eat it. "
"Haha, so it's for Madam to raise for fun! Forget it, then I won't think about it anymore. It's getting late, I should go back. "
Lao Guo said straightforwardly.
The hunt lasted for four hours, and it was indeed very late. The sun was about to set, so they naturally had to return to the valley where they were temporarily staying as soon as possible before it got dark.
Ang Lee and his soldiers had a very comfortable life. They had good food, drinks, and fun, and didn't suffer at all. However, the horse gangs who were still struggling on the way back were extremely miserable.
At dusk, the exhausted horse gangs asked for a rest, but the leader, who was in a hurry, didn't agree with their request. He thought that the team was moving too slowly, and such a slow speed would delay things. In order to make the horse gangs move faster, the leader even offered a blank check that even he couldn't accept. He said that when they arrived at the east of the river, he would definitely reward his brothers handsomely and would never let any of them suffer again.
However, in the eyes of the extremely exhausted horse gangs, these blank checks were not attractive at all. They wouldn't treat themselves too badly for these blank checks.
Because the journey was too tiring, he couldn't eat or sleep well. Therefore, in just a few days, the fat man lost a lot of weight and looked very lethargic. This was on the basis that Foal secretly prepared a lot of dried meat for him. Without the dried meat, the fat man would be even more miserable. Among the horse gangs, there were many horse gangs like the fat man. They didn't usually suffer too much, so when they suddenly suffered, they would feel very uncomfortable and uncomfortable.
Even the bandits who could endure hardships would feel an unbearable pain during such a arduous journey. They would always feel as if their bodies were being hollowed out.
"Brother Ma, aren't you tired? I feel that my legs don't belong to me anymore. I'm so tired. "
The fat man sighed and said painfully.
Of course, Foal was very tired. Not only was he tired, but he also had something on his mind. He had to be alert at all times, in case the soldiers suddenly came and killed him.
"Not tired? How can I not be tired? My legs are about to break, and they don't belong to me anymore. "
Foal rolled his eyes at the fat man beside him and said.
The fat man felt slightly better and said, "Sigh, it's almost dark and we still have to continue walking. They really don't see us as humans! I'm so tired I'm about to die. "
Even though he was very angry, the fat man's status was lower. Moreover, he was a horse gang in charge of logistics. Therefore, he didn't dare to express his opinions casually. Even if it was very tiring, he could only endure it.
Foal was naturally very tired as well. Like the fat man, he didn't dare to casually raise any objections. The horse gang leader asked them to continue moving forward, so he could only continue moving forward. The task of giving opinions was better left to the more aggressive people. He and the fat man were too soft and didn't have much fighting strength. They could only sullenly obey orders.
"Brother Eye, someone fell down, someone fell down."
Just as the fat man and Foal were complaining, a weak horse gang suddenly fell to the ground and couldn't get up. No matter how the people beside him shouted, he wouldn't get up. He carefully tested his nose. It was very weak, but he was still breathing. He hadn't lost his life, but he was so weak that he couldn't continue moving forward.
One-eye heard the news and rushed over. When he saw that the little horse gang was so weak, he was very upset. After days of rushing, he felt very tired. Even though he didn't need to be responsible for carrying the supplies, and the others had to lead the horses while he could ride, he still needed to restrain the crowd. He also needed to work on the minds of his subordinates. When there were various unexpected situations, he also needed to deal with them. Therefore, he was very tired. The more tired his subordinates were, the more discontent they had in their hearts, and the more tired One-eye was.
At this moment, looking at his subordinates who were almost dying, One-eye was in a dilemma. If he didn't abandon this burdensome brother, the group couldn't continue to move forward effectively. But if he really abandoned this weak brother, then the rest of the brothers would be in danger. The resentment accumulated over many days would completely explode. Once such a thing happened, it would be a huge disaster. Perhaps his life would be ended by his subordinates.
The leader of the Horse Gang above urged them to hurry up, and the brothers below were in such a situation. The one-eyed man was so distressed that he did not know what to do. Both sides were dead ends. He wished he could abandon the team and leave secretly by himself. He wanted to live a good life in seclusion in a place where no one knew him.
"Brother, brother, wake up! Wake up! "
One-eye called out.
"Brother, wake up, wake up."
The group stopped unconsciously. They were all very tired. If they continued to move, they might end up in the same situation. Some horse gangsters took advantage of this opportunity to stop and rest.
No matter how many people called out to him, this horse gangster was indifferent. Maybe he really fainted, or maybe he deliberately faked it so that he could stop and rest.
"We can't go on like this. We have to carry so many things and walk such a difficult road. Moreover, we have to walk faster. This is killing us!"
"We won't go. No matter what, we won't go today. It's getting dark. We want to rest. We'll rest here. We won't go anywhere."
A few horse gangsters who were more aggressive spoke out loudly.
"We won't go. We won't go. We won't go anymore."
"We'll stop here today. We won't go."
Under the guidance of a few horse gangsters who were more aggressive, all the horse gangsters boldly proposed that they wouldn't go. Some horse gangsters even took down their tents and prepared to camp.
The one-eyed man was helpless. If he didn't agree, his subordinates would rebel. He was only the leader in charge of logistics. How could he control these arrogant Horse Gang subordinates? If he lost his life, it wouldn't be worth it.
One-eye had no choice but to order, "Brothers, we won't go. We'll camp here today. A few of you come and take good care of him."
After arranging these, One-eye rode to the back. He wanted to report the situation here to the horse gangster leader in detail so that there wouldn't be any animosity between the two brothers. If such a situation happened, it would be really bad.
The horse gangster leader personally led a group of people at the back. They were about three to five miles away from One-eye's group. At this moment, One-eye's group had just climbed over a hill. Therefore, the horse gangster leader who hadn't climbed over the hill couldn't see what was happening in front.
"Brothers, let's work harder. The group in front has more important tasks than us. They can walk so fast. We can't fall behind!"
Seeing that his brothers were a little tired, the horse gangster leader encouraged them.
Although the horse gangsters were very tired, what the leader said made sense. The group in front did have more important tasks than them. Since they could persevere, why couldn't they persevere? If they couldn't persevere, wouldn't they be laughed at?
"Big brother, big brother."
At this moment, One-eye rode over. He looked very anxious.
The horse gangster leader was also nervous. He quickly went over to ask what was going on.
"What's the matter? Why did you come back alone?"
The horse gangster leader asked.
"Big brother, our brothers walked too fast. We're all exhausted. Just now, one of our brothers fell to the ground and couldn't get up. The rest of our brothers refused to leave. Now we've set up camp."
One-eye said.
The horse gangster leader said angrily, "How could you be so careless? How could you faint? Your body is like a young lady from a rich family. You just worked hard for a few days and you can't stand it. "
The bandit leader was annoyed. He felt that his subordinates were too useless. They had only worked hard for a few days and they were already so tired. In this way, the speed of the group's progress would be greatly affected. This was a situation that he did not want to see.
One-eye was so angry that he couldn't say a word. He didn't know what to say.
"What's going on? How serious is the situation? Can we continue tomorrow?"
The horse gangster leader continued to ask.
Seeing that the leader only cared about the group's journey and didn't care about his injured brother, One-eye felt a sense of loss. There was no future following such a person. There was no future at all.
"He's just too tired and fainted. As for whether we can continue tomorrow, no one can say for sure."
One-eye said.
"He fainted after only walking 30 miles in a day. Our brothers are really worrisome!"
The horse gangster leader sighed.
One-eye explained, "Big brother, you can't blame us. This road is really too difficult to walk. It's all mountain roads. One moment it's uphill and the next moment it's downhill. We also have to carry so many things. If we walk lightly on a better road, we can walk 80 miles in a day. We're really too tired. Big brother, you should be able to see it!"
Although the Horse Gang Leader was not blind, he felt that the team was moving too slowly. It was a little too slow compared to the speed he had expected. This made him very dissatisfied. He felt that his brothers could still hold on for a little longer. As long as they could get through this difficult period, the following days would be very comfortable.
However, One-eye and his brothers didn't think so. They felt that if they continued to march at such a high intensity and didn't get to eat delicious food every day, even if it was just for a few days, they would be tired and sick. As the leader of the Horse Gang, how could he not understand such a simple reason? This was completely for his own treasure, regardless of the life and death of his brothers.
"Forget it. Since our brothers have already decided, what else can I say? Let's rest early today! We'll go on as usual tomorrow. "
Seeing that the situation couldn't be reversed, the horse gangster leader had to give in.
One-eye nodded and said, "Big brother, don't worry. We'll set off on time tomorrow morning. However, we're walking so slowly because we're carrying too many things. Now not only are we tired, but also the horses are tired. If we continue to walk so hard, I'm really worried! If the horses suddenly die, then even the gods can't do anything about it. We can't ignore this situation! "
The horse gangster leader said in annoyance, "What can we do? We've been carrying so many treasures for several days. If we just give up like this, it's really a pity. We can only continue to carry them. Just be careful and don't let the horses be too tired."
One-eye originally wanted to discuss with the horse gangster leader to bury these treasures nearby and mark them so that they could come back to take them when they wanted in the future. But he swallowed his words back.
