Tang's dining table

Chapter 236 A future as dark as ink

Under the influence of heaven and man, it is not surprising that anything happens to big people.

For example, when Shennong tasted Baicao, his stomach was transparent, and you could see the state of Baicao being digested in his stomach.

For example, someone's mother accidentally got pregnant after stepping on a big footprint.

There is also the one whose two wives cried all the way along the Xiangjiang River, and then their tears turned the bamboo into mottled bamboo, known as Xiangfei Bamboo.

When Qin Wangzheng was offering sacrifices by the Weishui River, a black dragon jumped out of the Weishui River. It writhed on the water for a long time before diving into the water and disappearing.

When he was still a scoundrel, he met a big white snake and chopped the white snake to death with his sword. He had a dream at night and the white snake's mother called him the son of the Red Emperor.

There is also a guy with strange double pupils, probably because his eyes have compound eyes like flies, so he can ride a black horse, wave a halberd, and be invincible among millions of troops.

Compared with these things that are impossible to do with human power, Prince Hong captured a giant bear alive with his bare hands at the age of four, which was very conscientious.

What's more, Yun Chu spent a long time in the bamboo forest before selecting a flower bear with the characteristics of a bear to subdue, and then gave it to Prince Hong to subdue with delicious food.

The King of Winter Hunting could only be Prince Hong, and Li Shen didn't even dare to ask for this title. Otherwise, if he becomes the King of Winter Hunting today, tomorrow his Ninth Brother will make him unworthy.

You know, as long as the winter hunting is commanded by Emperor Taizong, the king of winter hunting has always been Emperor Taizong himself.

Emperor Taizong would happily accept all the prey presented by his subordinates, and then happily reward these things again. Although the result is the same, the process is very particular.

Although the bear was caught by Yunchu, the king of hunting could not be Yunchu, because Li Ji would laugh at him, and Liang Jianfang would spit on his face. As for asking these people to sacrifice their prey, it was unthinkable. Do not think.

After returning to the camp, Xue Rengui kept his face up to the sky, not knowing what he found in the celestial phenomena, and did not tell Yun Chu.

There were a total of twenty-four bears in the bamboo forest, and they were eaten by the furious Liang Jianfang and others.

Now, those bears were trembling and howling in cages. Each one of them had a bruised nose and face, and had been beaten so badly.

The bear that Xue Rengui captured was different after all. This guy had a lot of fighting spirit. As long as he had a little strength, he would grab the railing and shake it vigorously. He even tore off the splints tied to his legs by Yun Chu. Compared with Li Hong's bear, it doesn't want food, it just wants freedom.

While the other bears were locked in cages and howling mournfully, Li Hong's fat bear was sitting on a branch outside the tree house. After waking up, he got a bunch of grapes from Li Hong's hand.

Indifferent to fellow beings in cages.

When its kind were howling with hunger, saliva flowed from the corners of its mouth, its head pressed against the tree trunk, and it fell into a deep sleep.

This is why Yunchu likes it.

As a large bag composed of a large team of people slowly closed, the moment of final harvest had arrived.

At the mouth of a small canyon, a strong high platform had been built early. The ropes, clamps, cages, and traps were all placed densely. A group of veterans climbed onto the high platform with their own marked bows and arrows.

Yunchu was naturally among them, but everyone didn't seem to like him very much. He was a little far away from him, but Li Hong and Naha were surrounded by the crowd.

Only Li Ji didn't care. While adjusting his bow, he asked, "Isn't it a little early to stand now?"

Yun Chu also adjusted his bow and said calmly: "If you don't take a position early, you will basically be out of position if you want to take a position in the future."

"Do you think highly of Prince Hong?"

"It's not that I'm optimistic about him, it's that this child is very optimistic about me. He liked me when he was still in his mother's arms. I asked the eminent monk, and the eminent monk said that we have the same scent."

"Is this eminent monk Master Xuanzang?"

"No, it's a master named Wukong."

Li Ji nodded and stopped talking. He raised his bow and fired an arrow. A running wolf fell to the ground. Yun Chu took a look and saw that he shot accurately. The arrow went in through the wolf's eye.

So Yun Chu also fired an arrow, and the arrow hit a wild boar in the eye. He thought that the pig would definitely die. Unexpectedly, this guy was not dead. He was blind in one eye like Xiahou Dun. He became even more violent and hit the pig with his head. On the thick pillars, even the platform trembled.

After the pig emerged from under the platform, Yunchu shot another arrow. This time, both eyes of the wild boar were completely blind. However, the wild boar stood motionless on a high slope, its thick nostrils twitching continuously, and then It rushed towards the high platform like a tank, but its brain was not very good and it forgot that there were many tree stumps half a man's height near the high platform.

The wild boar hit a tree stump and probably broke its neck. It fell to the ground on all fours, twitched a few times and then stopped moving.

"You should change to a stiff bow." Li Ji commented after seeing Yun Chu's archery skills.

Yun Chu shook his head and said: "The Imperial Medical Office recently obtained a kind of poison from the savages in Jiaozhou, which is the sap of a tree. The people there like to use this substance to smear it on their arrows. As long as the enemy is hit by the arrow, even if it is only scratched a little Skin, according to the legend of the Savages.

If you take eight steps up, you will die; if you take nine steps, you will die.

Although the shooting range of a hard bow is longer, it is ultimately not as good as the eight-oxen crossbow. The lethality of close range shooting is not as good as that of feather arrows coated with this poison. Not only is it laborious, it will also affect the accuracy.

If I have the opportunity to go to the battlefield in the future, I will abandon the bow and arrow and bring a crossbow. "

Xue Rengui, who had just shot a wild boar to death with a strong bow, suddenly said: "It is not the behavior of a gentleman to use poison."

Yun Chu shot another arrow. Seeing a wild sheep fall to the ground, he said to Xue Rengui with satisfaction: "A dead man doesn't care whether he was shot to death by a strong bow or a poisonous arrow."

Li Ji looked at Yun Chu and said, "Is there a way to cure this poison?"

Yun Chu nodded and said: "There is a way to solve it. As long as you take red-backed bamboo stalk grass immediately when the arrow hits you, you can survive.

If Mr. Ying wants to know more about this poison, he can go to the Imperial Medical Office and ask. "

Xue Rengui shook his head and said: "I will not use poisonous arrows in this life."

Yun Chu cupped his hands and said, "General Xue is absolutely right."

Seeing Yun Chu constantly dealing with Xue Rengui, Li Ji sighed and said: "Wars in the future will become more and more cruel.

It will become easier to kill people, and more and more people will die. "

Yun Chu shook the long bow in his hand and said: "There is nothing we can do about it. As the Tang Dynasty became rich and powerful, it is inevitable that there will be fewer and fewer strong generals, and it is inevitable that there will be fewer and fewer strong soldiers."

If everyone in the Tang Dynasty could have enough to eat, no Tang people would be willing to compete with those barbarians to see who was more barbaric.

At this time, we must take advantage of the gap in weapons to suppress those barbaric people. Just like when fighting the Tubo people, you can use a large number of these poisonous arrows.

On the plateau, the strength of the Tang troops and horses would be reduced by more than 30% on average, which would make it difficult for the Tang army, which was originally invincible, to win after encountering the Tubo people.

If a soft bow is used with such poisonous arrows, I think it should be able to make up for the physical gap between our Tang army and the Tubo people.

The best thing about this kind of poisonous arrow is that as long as it is used once, the poison on the poisonous arrow will disappear after mixing with the blood. Therefore, Yinggong does not have to worry about others getting this kind of arrow and shooting it back. "

Just as Yun Chu finished speaking, Li Ji was startled. He looked at Yun Chu and said, "How long has it been since the Imperial Medical Office produced such poisonous arrows?"

Yun Chu looked at Li Ji and smiled: "Half a year ago."

Li Ji stared into Yun Chu's eyes and said, "So Tuyuhun..."

Yun Chu nodded and said, "They took away five thousand branches."

Li Ji said worriedly: "You don't know how courageous Li Jingye is."

Yun Chu smiled and said, "No matter what you do in Tuyuhun, it's not out of the ordinary, right?"

Li Ji punched the guardrail hard and said angrily: "He will poke a big hole in the sky for you!"

Yunchu looked at the gloomy sky and said, "That's also the sky in Tuyuhun."

Li Ji suppressed his anger and said: "I mean Tubo!"

Yun Chu spread his hands and said: "That's Tubo's destiny too. Lord Ying, you shouldn't have put a man like Li Jingye in the country.

As long as he doesn't make mistakes at home, even if he breaks the rules outside, the Young Master will be able to deal with the consequences for him, right? "

Li Ji said with a gloomy face: "He is yours now. Even if you have to deal with the aftermath, you will deal with it for him. After the New Year, I will use family methods to expel Li Jingye from the Li family."

Yun Chu said with a smile: "I don't know if Mr. Ying has ever thought about it. Maybe Li is the rope that binds Li Jingye's hands and feet."

Li Ji looked at the wild beasts escaping all over the ground and said, "Then let him struggle. I'll see what kind of result he can produce."

After saying that, there was a thunderclap from the bowstring in his hand, and a wild boar fell over.

This hunting lasted from early morning to dusk. The strong men of Wannian County took out the prey from various mechanisms. According to the rules, all the females and young ones were let go. As for wild boars and wild sheep, the two extremely breeding species, Fast prey are not among them.

The tiger killed two, and deliberately let one go away. The bear killed a dozen, and let two more with their cubs go.

Four leopards were killed, mainly because they would climb trees and be difficult to drive away when in danger.

As for the Huabong, they were all caught alive.

There are countless wild boars, wild wolves, wild sheep, rabbits, and pheasants. According to Zhang Jia's calculations, they can satisfy at least about 70% of Jinchangfang's meat consumption.

Li Hong was a very good boy and planned to dedicate one of the largest tigers to his father, the other smaller tiger to his father-in-law, and the rest of the bears and leopards to the veterans who came to hunt this time.

As for those worthless wild boars and wild sheep, they were given to Wannian County to hold the Lantern Festival celebrations.

Flower Bear—all belongs to him.

Except for the flower bear captured by Xue Rengui, which was too seriously injured, the other flower bears all survived happily after eating the food sent by Li Hong, and they seemed to live very well. joy.

Yun Chu looked at the more than twenty round creatures and couldn't help feeling worried about Li Hong.

It is estimated that from now on, Li Hong will be the poorest among all the princes.
