The big insect's attack came very suddenly, catching everyone by surprise.
With one impact, three or four villagers were bitten to death by the giant insects. The disgusting smell of blood filled the air, diluting the villagers above them.
Their eyes were dull, and when they reacted, what was waiting for them was the thick tiger paw of the big insect.
"What the hell are you doing? Come on, this beast will die tonight, or we will die!"
Li Hu's deep voice sounded again. The somewhat absent-minded villagers threw away other thoughts in their minds. With torches, hoes, sickles, and shovels in their hands, and rounds of inaccurate arrows, they greeted the big insect. .
The momentum is very strong, but apart from the small amount of damage caused, the big white insect is still very ferocious.
Although Li Hu's face was calm, he was anxious inside. It was already difficult to deal with a ferocious insect, but now it was in a frantic state, and it was even more difficult to deal with it.
Although Li Hu didn't speak, he looked at Su Qi'an beside him from time to time.
The order just now was in accordance with Su Qi'an's instructions. The first order was given, but Su Qi'an's second order was not given, which made Li Hu quite anxious.
At this moment, Su Qian's urgent voice sounded, "Let go of the rope and fire another round. Let all the villagers in close combat retreat and attack from a distance."
"Let go of the rope?" Li Hu was a little confused.
But he did not hesitate and followed Su Qian's order.
Without the restraint of the rope, the mad insect was completely uncontrollable and ran rampant without restraint.
However, this unscrupulousness did not last long, as countless arrows, torches, and even shovels, hoes, etc. came oncoming.
Although the accuracy is not accurate, you will eventually encounter a few dead mice.
After several rounds, in addition to the injured left hind foot, the insect's right front foot was pierced by an arrow.
This was not bad. Just now, an arrow passed by its one eye. Although it missed, it hit the cheek.
The big white insect couldn't figure out why the human's previous attacks couldn't hurt it at all, but this strange arrow hurt it.
The big insect didn't have time to think about this at the moment, because it suddenly realized that its consciousness was beginning to blur.
After knocking over several villagers, the scarred white insect roared viciously at everyone, and then turned around and ran away the next moment.
Everyone was stunned by this scene. They thought it would be another life-and-death struggle, but now they seemed to be safe.
After confirming that the big insect had really escaped, the remaining villagers were gasping for breath and slumped on the ground, with expressions on their faces as if they were surviving the disaster.
Of course, there is still a bit of regret. If the big insect continues to fight with them, it will probably be revealed here.
A nearly cooked duck flew away, what a pity.
It's a bit regretful, but it's understandable. As for those who want to take the opportunity to chase the big insect and kill it, they won't go if given the chance.
This big insect was injured, but it was not a sick cat, and it had returned to its own territory. Not to mention the villagers, even old hunters like Li Hu and Zhao Da did not dare to attack easily.
It was a blessing to be able to force this big insect away today.
Soon, it was daybreak, and the number of casualties was counted. Five were dead and twelve were injured, five of them seriously injured.
From this point of view, it is enough to see the ferocity of this big insect.
Seeing the tragic death of their companions, everyone felt sad in their hearts, but they quickly calmed down. No one has seen a dead person these days.
Under the arrangements of Li Hu, Zhao Da and others, the remaining villagers went home one after another to pass the news back.
As for the hunters, they are still determined to go deep into the wild forest and eradicate the roots. As hunters, they are all too aware of the consequences of letting the tiger return to the mountains.
The best thing is to kill you while you are sick!
This time, the hunters did not go out in full force. The villagers always had to leave some manpower behind, but Li Hu, Zhao Da, Shui Sheng, Tieniu, and Su Qi'an.
The villagers could understand what the hunters did, but when they looked at Su Qi'an who was accompanying the team, they all looked at him with pity.
A weak scholar, even if he was lucky enough to shoot an arrow just now, would not be able to come back alive.
It's not like they are seeking death. Since Su Qi'an insists on seeking death, they can't do anything about it and just wish themselves better.
As the villagers dispersed, the five people quickly set off on the road. It would be a lie to say they were not nervous.
Along the way, Tieniu and Shui Sheng beside him kept confirming with Li Hu the authenticity of what he just said.
Although Li Hu was a little patient, he couldn't stand it for a few minutes. He was nagging in his ears more than a dozen times before he lost his temper and exploded.
"I told you that this must be true. Otherwise, why would sir come with us? You are really afraid of death. Go back as soon as possible. I won't stop you."
Tieniu and Shuisheng were not sure what to say for a moment when Li Hu scolded them, and they touched their heads in embarrassment.
Su Qi'an, who was marching in front, turned his head and said to the two of them, "Don't worry, everyone. Although this big insect is ferocious, the arrow I shot was covered with poison. It's not very toxic, but it's paralyzing." It works, we are not in a hurry, we will catch up slowly, and when the time is up, this big insect will be automatically delivered to us without us having to do anything."
Su Qi'an's words surprised and delighted the two of them. What they were happy about was that if they really followed what Su Qi'an said, maybe they could pick up such a rich prey for free without any effort.
What is surprising is that this honest and even somewhat old-fashioned Mr. Su, when will he be able to make drugs again? And looking at his walking posture, how does he look like a bookworm who only reads books about sages?
"Are the rumors true? Mr. Su was lost by the water ghost?"
Thinking of this, the two of them looked at Su Qi'an's retreating back, their eyes trembling slightly.
"Bah! Bah! Bah! Tieniu and Shui Sheng, forget all this nonsense in your minds as soon as possible. Mr. Su calls this the sage's favor. You know nothing."
"That's right. It's your blessing that sir can take you with him this time. Don't blame me for not reminding you. Don't commit suicide and ruin your own blessing."
"Sir, you have a lot of abilities. It's a good idea to follow him."
At this time, Li Hu was like Su Qi'an's little fanboy. Tieniu and Shui Sheng were stunned by his output.
They still understand Li Hu. Although he is a rough man, in addition to being warm-hearted, his ability to judge people is much better than them.
Moreover, in the battle just now, although Li Hu saved his life, his injuries were serious. Even so, he still had to drag his heavy body to follow Su Qi'an.
Being able to change Li Hu in such a short period of time and gradually become a staunch supporter of Su Qi'an is enough to show that Mr. Su was extraordinary after he fell into the water and was rescued.
Although the two were simple and honest, they were not stupid. They immediately changed their mentality and said hurriedly to Li Hu and Zhao Dal.
"Hey! Hey! It's my brother who is stupid. If there is anything wrong in the future, please ask Brother Tiger and Brother Zhao to teach you."
"It's easy to talk about." Li Hu and Zhao Da nodded with satisfaction.
"Hey, what are you muttering about? If you don't leave, you won't be able to catch up."
"Okay, okay, sir, we will come."
The four of them quickened their pace and soon caught up with Su Qi'an. The five of them moved forward and quickly disappeared into the vast forest.
It was said to be a wild forest, but as I got deeper into it, I realized how big it was.
There are at least dozens of Dongshan villages as big as them. Fortunately, Su Qi'an and the five people prepared three days of food rations before setting off. If they went there rashly, they would probably return without success.
All four of them were born as hunters, and it was common for cats to spend several nights in such a frozen and snowy place.
As for this frail Mr. Su, except that he is indeed a little weak, he usually looks like a fine person.
This had to make the four of them look at each other with admiration. A scholar who could eat and sleep with humble hunters like them had already impressed Tieniu and Shuisheng.
The wild forest was vast, but the injured insect finally ran out of energy. After two days of hard pursuit, Su Qi'an and the others finally found the insect's body on the evening of the second day.
The injured insect was lying on its side on the ground. From a distance, it looked as if it was not breathing, as if it had fallen asleep, or that it seemed dead.
But at this time, although the distance was only three hundred meters, no one dared to approach deliberately.
In the end, it was Su Qi'an who took action and slowly approached.
Tieniu and Shuisheng looked at the scene and panicked. They were not worried about Su Qi'an's destruction, but about his safety.
Li Hu and Zhao Da beside them patted their shoulders, shook their heads, and said softly.
"Watch carefully, Mr. Su's performance has begun."
The two of them were a little stunned, but the anxiety on their faces said everything. Zhao Da continued, "You don't really think that Mr. Su's shot just now was due to luck."
"You are also old hunters. Think carefully about who shot the arrows that fatally wounded the big insect just now."
"What do you mean? Could it be..."
Just when the two were in a daze, Su Qi'an had sneaked up to a distance of more than 80 meters from the injured insect. Without saying a word, Su Qi'an drew the arrow, nocked the bow, and shot in one go.
The arrow pierced the sky and headed straight for the insect's injured left foot. It was very fast and tricky. If you were not prepared, the arrow would definitely hit.
The moment the arrow hit, the seemingly dead and injured insect seemed to be resurrected and sprang up violently.
And he ran directly in the direction of Su Qi'an, as if he had been waiting for this moment.
The injured insect ran wildly, and its speed reached its physiological limit. However, within a distance of more than 80 meters, it would take at most 5 seconds to swallow Su Qi'an alive.
The big white insect's jump frightened Li Hu and Zhao Da. They didn't expect this beast to be so cunning.
In five seconds, they had no time to rescue him, and Su Qian was not panicked when he was discovered.
His eyes were fixed on the big insect that was rushing towards him, and it was still a series of coordinated movements just now.
Only this time, there was not one arrow, but three. Three arrows were shot together. One hit the eye, one pierced the heart, and one hit the skull.
This time, the injured insect didn't even have time to feel the pain. He died on the spot. His huge body fell in front of Su Qi'an, and the distance between the two sides was less than half a meter.
The four people watching this scene from a distance had dull eyes. The first one to react was Li Hu.
He patted Tieniu and Shuisheng who were in a daze, and with Zhao Da's support, he slowly turned towards Su Qi'an.
The two of them were shocked not only by Su Qi'an's superb archery skills, but also by the fact that he remained calm and composed at such a close range and shot three arrows in unison.
An excellent archer not only possesses powerful archery skills, but more importantly, has a strong psychological quality.
Su Qi'an's performance just now can be regarded as a success.
Tieniu and Shuisheng looked at each other, and they both realized from the other side that no matter what they say in the future, they must hug Su Qi'an's thigh.
Just kidding, a man with a reputation as a scholar and an all-around talent in both civil and military affairs can't be found anywhere in the world holding a lantern. If he doesn't hold on tightly, he will be kicked by a donkey.
At the same time, Su Qi'an and the others were about to get rid of the big insect that had been harming Dongshan Village for many years.
Outside Dongshan Village, shopkeeper Guan, who had not been seen for several days, was approaching Dongshan Village step by step, surrounded by a group of men with gangster faces...
