Zhao Ji really wanted to slip away, especially after Zhang Xiu suggested going hunting in Xishan.
He really couldn't be more familiar with these dudes in Beijing. Not only were their hunting skills poor, they also often drove civilians up the mountain to drive animals away from the mountains and drive the animals into their hunting range.
It's okay to encounter hares and deer, but if there are wolves, tigers and leopards in the mountains, the people will consider themselves unlucky. Occasionally, someone would shoot arrows at civilians on a whim to scare them for fun.
Although he also liked hunting, he was not crazy enough to do so. Therefore, when he wanted to hunt before, he always took two hounds with him and went up the mountain with his servants.
He knows a little bit about Zhang Xiu's character. If Zhang Xiu sees this kind of thing, what happened today will definitely not go well...
However, under Zhang Xiu's slightly threatening eyes, Zhao Ji could only shut his mouth helplessly, and came to the mountain with several officials and disciples with a wry smile on his face.
Just as he expected, Li Zijie and other officials' sons once again captured dozens of civilians at the foot of the mountain and asked them to drive away the prey within the hunting range.
Looking at the rabbit that was driven in front of him and fled in panic, Li Zijie laughed loudly, raised his bow and aimed an arrow at the rabbit, and said confidently: "Haha, I will accept the advantage today!"
"Not always……"
Zhang Xiu's smiling voice sounded, followed by a whooshing sound, the bow and arrow shot out from his hand, followed by a sharp arrow falling from the sky, and one arrow pierced Li Zijie's arm!
With a pop, blood splashed!
"ah!"
Li Zijie screamed, his face flushed with pain, he covered his bleeding arm, his cheeks twitched and roared: "Brother Zhang, where are you looking? Do you know how to shoot an arrow?"
Zhang Xiu smiled slightly and said, "Of course I will. In our Luzhou Academy, my archery skills are famous for my ability to shoot wherever I point. I can pierce a tree with one step. As long as I go to the shooting range, I will never dare anyone within a ten-mile radius!"
Li Zijie: "@#¥%¥#@......"
You just can’t do this! !
While talking, Zhang Xiu pulled out five feather arrows from the quiver, stretched his bow and arrows, and shot them into the sky together.
The next moment, the expressions of several people around him changed drastically, and they all dodged away in the distance.
Immediately afterwards, miserable cries of pain were heard one after another. The five people who had obviously hid far away had a trembling arrow inserted into their bodies!
Zhao Ji was the only one who was frozen in place. His clothes were wiped by the sharp arrow as it flew past him. He broke out in a cold sweat involuntarily and was stunned in place.
Seeing Zhang Xiu drawing his bow and answering arrows again, Li Zijie's complexion changed drastically, he galloped his horse and whipped his horse, and ran down the mountain like crazy: "Brother Zhang, I'm feeling a little unwell today. Li will take my leave first!"
The remaining people reacted immediately, covered their bleeding wounds, and fled down the mountain in embarrassment!
Zhang Xiu closed his right eye and aimed five arrows at the backs of the five people. He said with some hesitation: "The palace examination will be held in a few days. Do you want to kill a few to add to the fun?"
Zhao Ji came back to his senses with a panicked look on his face: "This...isn't this bad!!"
Zhang Xiu smiled slightly, slowly put away the bow and arrow in his hand, and said with a bright smile: "I was kidding you!"
After Zhao Ji heard this, he couldn't help but show a spoiled expression: "..."
But why do I feel like you are not joking at all? !
When Zhao Ji was doubting his life, several reminders suddenly sounded in Zhang Xiu's mind.
[God has a good heart, you successfully released Li Zijie and rewarded him with twenty years of experience in walking birds]
[God is kind and generous, you successfully released Ma Wenbin and rewarded him with twenty years of polo experience]
[God has the virtue of good life, you successfully released Hong Tianyou, and rewarded you with twenty years of experience in fighting crickets]
…
After seeing several new rewards, Zhang Xiu said with a depressed look: "These dandy boys in the capital are not doing their jobs properly all day long. They really lack training. When I become emperor one day, I will send them there that day." Practice and practice on the battlefield!”
Zhao Ji immediately took a breath of cold air and said with a panicked look on his face: "Brother Zhang, I pretend I didn't hear this. If you want to rebel, please don't implicate me!!! I have an eighty-year-old mother above me, I am an eighteen-year-old fiancée, and I still want to live for a few more years!”
While he was talking, there was a sudden rustling sound in the grass.
Immediately afterwards, a fragrant deer with tears in its eyes and iron clamps on its feet emerged from the grass, and then fell to the ground with a thud. It looked at Zhang and Xiu with its big cute eyes, revealing a A pitiful look.
When Zhang Xiu saw this, his eyes suddenly lit up. He got off his horse and came to the deer. He spread his hands and took off the iron clips from its feet.
Looking at Xiang Deerzi's injured right leg, Zhang Xiu said sympathetically: "What a pitiful little guy, why did he accidentally step on the trap..."
As he spoke, he gently stroked the fragrant deer's neck a few times, raised his head, and asked Zhao Ji seriously: "This deer is injured. Did you bring... did you bring cumin?"
Zhao Ji: “Huh???”
Xiang Deerzi: "!!!"
In the atmosphere where a needle could be heard, Zhang Xiu slapped his forehead and said in annoyance: "Did you bring the medicine for the golden sore?"
Zhao Ji's eyes twitched twice and he said: "I really brought the golden sore medicine..."
In order to prevent being "accidentally injured" by Zhang Xiu, he was fully prepared. He even went to the drug store to buy gold sore medicine and ginseng for life...
Although I didn't use it this time, but... luckily I didn't use it!
Zhao Ji suddenly woke up, breathed a sigh of relief, took out a bottle of golden sore medicine and threw it to Zhang Xiu.
Zhang Xiu cleaned Xiang Deerzi's wound with water, applied golden sore medicine, pulled a piece of cloth from his sleeve, and bandaged the wound skillfully.
After doing all this, Zhang Xiu looked at the fragrant deer up and down, nodded with satisfaction and said: "Well, that's almost it. Little guy, do you want to go back with me and take a bath? There is something in the Luzhou Guild Hall that can definitely hold a mouthful. Where’s your big iron pot!”
Xiang Deerzi: "..."
My benefactor, this is not necessary! !
Under Zhang Xiu's kind eyes, Xiang Deerzi stood up with a few flutters, looked at Zhang Xiu with horror, and limped toward the forest.
After watching Xiang Zhangzi disappear, another reminder sounded in Zhang Xiu's mind.
[God has the virtue of good life, you have successfully released a fragrant deer, and you will be rewarded with a life span of three hundred years]
Looking at his extra three hundred years of life, Zhang Xiu murmured with a confused look on his face: "Li Zijie and the others together are not as good as a fragrant deer. It seems that we have to release them a few more times before we can let them go." I have a clear mind..."
"..."
Hearing this, Zhao Ji was so moved by his kindness that he almost cried. After a moment, he said with a complicated face: "Brother Zhang, I feel that this world... I'm afraid there is no room for you!!"
