My older brother is Gao Huan.

Chapter 165 A Naïve Young Girl's Heart

This wild scorpion is already tough and thick-skinned, and it's covered in a thick layer of mud. I wonder if it got rubbed against pine resin before being driven here by the hunting party, if so...

That would be no less than putting on a thick layer of 'armor' on top of already having thick skin and flesh.

To subdue such a wild serpent, one must either shoot it with a powerful bow to make sure it can break through its defenses, then slowly bleed it until its strength is exhausted and its blood dries up, at which point it can be easily subdued.

Alternatively, you could flip it over, exposing the wild beast's most vulnerable parts—its neck and belly. Even the most ferocious beast would find these areas incredibly fragile, easily penetrated by ordinary swords and blades, causing fatal damage.

What method can be used to overturn a wild broom that can weigh 300-400 jin (150-200 catties)?
Ordinary hunters usually set traps in advance to lure the wild boar into them and then slowly subdue it. But Gao Yu is no ordinary person.

Before the wild serpent could charge at him again, Gao Yu immediately drew his bow and shot an arrow, this time aiming for the serpent's eyes!

Whoosh!
After switching to a two-stone bow, the arrows fired could be clearly heard whistling through the air.

Extremely fast.

The wild comb couldn't dodge it at all.

The arrow pierced his right eyeball, shooting it straight in.

Suddenly!

The wild scorpion seemed to have gone mad, jumping back and forth in place and letting out extremely tragic roars. The roars were so loud that they even attracted the attention of other hunters nearby.

Erzhu Rong had just hunted a wild deer when he heard this pitiful cry and looked up in the direction of the sound.

The guard beside him quickly reported, "It seems that Gao Lang has encountered a wild serpent and is hunting it."

"Go, come with me to take a look."

Erzhu Rong became interested, and Yuan Tianmu followed beside him. "Tianmu, why don't you come with me?"

“I am also very curious, so I will respectfully comply.”

The group immediately rode their horses toward Gao Yu's location. Not only them, but everyone who received the news also chose to go and watch.

Wild geese and tigers are among the best of the wild beasts in the mountains.

Tigers are ferocious because they are more agile and possess sharp claws and teeth, which are weapons that can easily kill people.

Wild scorpions are equally ferocious, as they are stronger than tigers. If they were to encounter one in the forest, even tigers would generally not dare to provoke this thick-skinned, brute-force creature.

Wild fangs are the two thick, long, outward-facing fangs that Wild fangs rely on most. When it goes berserk, if you are hit by it, you will definitely be sent flying. If you are unlucky, you will be pierced by the two fangs and die instantly.

When Erzhu Rong and the others approached.

Gao Yu had already dismounted.

He executed an extreme side roll to avoid the sudden, violent impact of the wounded and berserk Wild Brush.

The 300-400 jin wild comb charged forward with all its might, and even took a short running start. Who knows how much kinetic energy this charge gathered? Gao Yu didn't dare to be careless and try to force it.

Immediately!

Before Ye Bi could turn around and charge again, Gao Yu took the initiative to meet him and shouted angrily!
"what!!"

He gripped the wild beast's two large fangs tightly with both hands, his eyes wide with anger, and began to stalemate with the beast. The man and the beast were like two soldiers wrestling in a military camp.

Gao Yu stood firmly on his feet like an old tree with its roots intertwined, not retreating an inch. Ye Bi's four hooves were also firmly planted, but it was visibly pushed backward a distance during the stalemate.

"The general is mighty!"

Peng Le was thoroughly enjoying himself and couldn't help but cheer loudly!
However, the danger involved was so great that even bystanders like Erzhu Rong would be terrified. If Gao Yu's strength faltered even for a moment, the fangs of the wild fangs would rip him open!

"How brave he is! I have never seen anyone in my life who can wrestle with a wild man of this size."

Yuan Tianmu was shocked. The scene before him was clearly beyond his common sense. Could there really be someone in this world who could fight such a beast with his bare hands?
Erzhu Rong was also greatly alarmed.

however……

What happened next completely stunned them!
Gao Yu sensed that the wild comb's strength seemed to be failing, and he was pushed backward a distance by him. He was overjoyed.

He quickly released his grip on the fangs, turned his body to the side, and instead of facing the wild worm directly, moved to its side, wrapping his arms around the wild worm's neck.

I saw.

Gao Yu roared again, his fair and handsome face turning bright red and congested with blood at a visible speed, with veins bulging on his neck and arms.

"Wake me up!!"

"what!!"

The wild stalker suddenly lifted off the ground with all four hooves, and Gao Yu performed a 'headfirst' maneuver, lifting it up and then slamming it back to the ground!

boom!
Wild Bi was thrown upside down, and the fall seemed to have stunned him. His vulnerable areas, such as his stomach, were exposed, but he showed no reaction at all.

Gao Yu, however, drew his ring-pommel sword from his waist with lightning speed and plunged it into Ye Bi's chest, roughly into the area of ​​his heart.

The intense pain caused Ye Bi to let out a terrible scream. He tried to struggle again, rolling around on the ground, but Gao Yu pressed him firmly to the ground.

I don’t know how much time passed.

Perhaps it was exhausted, or perhaps the blood in its body had dried up, the wild bi struggled less and less until it finally stopped moving altogether.

Gao Yu then let go, completely exhausted, and lay sprawled on the grass, panting heavily.

"What kind of divine power is this? How can there be someone with such divine power in the world?"

Yuan Tianmu didn't know whether he was asking himself or asking a question. However, his voice startled Erzhu Rong and the others, who were also stunned. They often hunted and fought with wild animals. They had killed tigers and wild geese before, but they were still so out of control.

It's simply because Gao Yu is just too fierce.

One man is fighting against a wild comb!
Erzhu Rong, however, discovered something even more surprising.

"See that? Gao Lang's personal guards, the commanders under their command, clearly saw that he was in great danger, but they showed no panic whatsoever, and didn't even have the thought of stepping forward to help..."

What is a personal guard?

They were a group of people who would never betray them, a group of people who would rather die themselves than let their husbands die.

Would they just stand by and watch Gao Yu get into danger without trying to save him?

how is this possible.

The real reason was that what seemed extremely dangerous to outsiders was commonplace to them. They were used to seeing Gao Yu fight wild beasts like this, which is why they remained calm and watched from the sidelines.

"Come, follow me to congratulate Gao Lang."

Erzhu Rong immediately urged his horse forward, but someone arrived before him—Erzhu Zhao.

Erzhu Zhao had already dismounted and rushed to Gao Yu's side, patting him hard on the shoulder with words full of flattery.

The nomadic peoples of the grasslands believe in the supremacy of the strong.

For these sharp-witted warriors, there are no complicated schemes or tricks. As long as you are brave enough, you will be given the highest respect!

"Tianbao is here too. Did you see Gao Lang kill this wild stag with his bare hands?" Even though he had nothing to do with Erzhu Zhao, he was extremely proud, acting as if Gao Lang and I were just killing each other, with him in charge of the shouting and Gao Yu in charge of the killing.

Erzhu Rong nodded and dismounted as well. Gao Yu, who had recovered most of his strength, quickly cupped his hands in greeting.

"I'm sorry to have made you laugh, Tianbao."

Erzhu Rong was not amused; he was clearly startled, but he was also extremely excited.

With such brave and valiant men serving under him, how could he not conquer the world when the situation changes further?
"Gao Lang is incredibly brave and skilled; I am ashamed to admit my inferiority..."

Erzhurong shook his head, "This round of competition does not need to continue."

Continuing like this would only bring shame upon ourselves.
In any case, he has already achieved his goal in this hunt.

Gao Yu then smiled and said, "Then this time I have a slight advantage."

Erzhu Rong smiled and nodded.

………………

Outer area.

The family members who were brought here are all here, and they are enjoying themselves here.

The news quickly reached them.

"Brother, you are indeed incredibly brave! You managed to kill Ye Bi all by yourself!"

Gao Yue's face also turned bright red with excitement. Duan Shao and the others didn't have a clear concept of one person killing Ye Bi.

But Gao Yue knew.

Although Duan Shao did not know the specifics, he said with certainty, "My uncle is the most valiant man in the world."

Gao Yue chuckled and teased, "You should say that to the prince's face."

"Why say it to my face? This is what I think in my heart. If I could be half as brave as my uncle in the future, I could also become a famous general of our time."

Gao Cheng pouted and muttered, "Why should I be brave? Wouldn't it be better to have brave people hunt wild beasts for me?"

"If there are no brave warriors by your side, wouldn't you have no choice but to surrender?"

Duan Shao retorted.

Gao Cheng, however, wore a bitter expression, saying, "Practicing martial arts is so tiring."

He would occasionally pester Gao Yu to teach him how to ride a horse and shoot an arrow, but after a while he would find it tiring. For Gao Cheng, riding a horse and shooting an arrow were more of a pastime.

He's still just a little kid, and being playful is in his nature.

Erzhu Ying'e and Erzhu Yuechan were selecting horses. They had been learning to ride horses since they were young and had a great fondness for fine horses.

Today, the racecourse also delivered a batch of fine horses, and the two of them were selecting them.

"Yuechan, did you hear that? They're all saying that Gao Lang actually killed a wild geese all by himself and even lifted it up!"

Erzhu Ying'e was extremely excited just from hearing his description, but she couldn't help feeling a little frustrated. "If we had known it would be this exciting, we should have gone to watch first."

"I never expected... that Gao Lang, who looks so frail and delicate like a woman, is actually so brave. Among the many valiant warriors in my Erzhu clan, none can match him."

Erzhu Yuechan was also shocked and couldn't help but wonder, "Ying'e, how can he have such great strength when he looks so frail?"

"How would I know? Look, isn't Gao Lang here? Why don't you go up and ask him yourself?"

Erzhu Ying'e pointed into the distance and could indeed see Gao Yu, Erzhu Rong, and others rushing towards them, with carriages behind them carrying Gao Yu's spoils of war.

A wild comb.

"Go ahead! What's there to be afraid of?"

Erzhu Yuechan didn't even bother choosing her favorite horse; she turned and walked towards the crowd.

When Gao Yu returned, he found that everyone was looking at him with strange eyes, but he was already used to it. He had seen such looks too many times when he was in Huai Shuo.

Gao Yue and the others immediately surrounded him, pestering him to ask about the details of fighting the wild bristles.

Gao Yu patiently described the scene to them in vivid detail, which made them laugh heartily.

suddenly!

A girl's silvery laughter rang in his ears. He looked in the direction of the sound and found that Erzhu Yuechan had come up behind them at some point. She seemed to have overheard his words and was also laughing heartily.

After being discovered.

A hint of embarrassment flashed across Erzhu Yuechan's face, but she quickly composed herself, put her hands behind her back, and walked forward confidently. After looking Gao Yu up and down, she gave him a sincere compliment.

"Uncle is really amazing. This is the first time I've ever heard of someone being able to fight a wild broom all by himself."

"That's right! My brother is the most powerful!"

Gao Yue spoke first, showing off with considerable pride.

Gao Yu reached out and ruffled his hair, then smiled and said, "I do still have some strength. Yuechan, did you come to see me for something?"

"I wanted to ask my uncle about fighting the wild bristles, but I already overheard it."

Erzhu Yuechan laughed again, "Next time Uncle goes hunting, would you like to take me with you? I'd like to see Uncle's brave and heroic figure for myself."

"How difficult is this?"

Gao Yu laughed heartily and readily agreed.

"Your uncle promised, so don't forget!"

"nature……"

Gao Yu was taken aback. Why did another sentence subconsciously pop into his mind when he heard these words?

"My home is in Taishan County, so don't come to the wrong place!"

He shook his head violently.

Spring has arrived, the season of growth and renewal, and even a vigorous young man like myself will inevitably be affected.

Erzhu Yuechan had no idea what Gao Yu was thinking. After receiving the reply, she was quite happy and ran back to Erzhu Ying'e's side. She imitated Gao Yu's actions and vividly recounted the process of fighting the wild worm to Erzhu Ying'e.

Erzhu Ying'e laughed heartily.

"Gao Lang is a really interesting person. He can talk about something that is extremely dangerous in such an interesting way."

Erzhu Yuechan strongly agreed.

"He is indeed an interesting person."
