The arrogant little husband is desperately flirting with the hunter

Several people looked at each other and saw questioning looks in each other's eyes. They came here just to obey orders, and they would do whatever their master told them to do.

They came from Kyoto and were afraid of being discovered by Marquis Zunyuan's men, so they didn't even have time to ask anything and rushed into the mountains without stopping.

Due to lack of familiarity with the mountain environment, they suffered a great loss as soon as they entered the mountain. They were surrounded by wolves all night and were not able to escape until dawn.

After walking around for several days, the little dry food they brought with them had long been eaten, but fortunately there were many pheasants and rabbits in the mountains, so they would not go hungry.

It's just that the grilled food doesn't have salt in it, so it always feels a little lacking in flavor. Besides, eating barbecue every day makes people feel a little irritated and their mouths are full of blisters.

"You, a young man, can hunt?" asked a tall and thin man.

As soon as Chu Xiao heard the voices, he knew it was the two people who had talked a lot just now. He was too lazy to answer them. It didn’t matter whether they could hunt or not. As long as they could kill people, it would be fine.

The leader didn't seem to want to say anything more. He directly named the two men and said, "Go and arrest them. Ask them if they know the place we are looking for."

The two people who were named put away their knives. Although it was strange to see a young man in the deep mountains, it was normal for a hunter to bring his husband with him and help with cooking.

So none of them really took Chu Xiao seriously, and they quickly stepped forward and tried to catch him.

But when he was only a few steps away from Chu Xiao, he suddenly couldn't move, as if his feet were nailed to the ground.

He lifted it up with force, and instantly felt a piercing pain from the instep. He looked down and saw a bamboo stick stuck in the worn-out shoe on his foot. The bamboo stick had completely penetrated the instep, and some of it had even been stuck in the ground.

This is why he felt unable to take a step at first.

“Ahhh…” The man’s howling like a pig being slaughtered resounded throughout the forest. The birds that had just quieted down for a while were frightened away again, flapping their wings.

"You, you..." When the other man who came to grab Chu Xiao saw his companion's pierced instep, he dared not reach out to grab him and took several steps back.

"Would you rather tie yourselves up obediently, or wait for me to nail you to the ground one by one?" Chu Xiao put his hands behind his back, then raised his hand and threw several hemp ropes at the feet of the stunned people.

The leader was still a little calm at this moment, but the others were frightened to varying degrees. They saw clearly when Chu Xiao took action.

The movement was so fast that it was like an afterimage. If their companions had not really been nailed to the ground, they would have suspected that it was just a momentary dazzle.

"What should we do?"

The leading man's voice was trembling, but he still pretended to be calm and said, "We didn't intend to hurt you. We just wanted to ask for directions. If you are willing to cooperate, I will ask my master for a reward for you when we return."

Chu Xiao knew that what he said was all bullshit, and he was only saying this because he couldn't win the fight. If he really was an ordinary guy, he would definitely be tortured and killed, and the evidence would have to be destroyed, and maybe not even a complete corpse would be left.

And as for going back to ask for a reward, it would be more realistic to say that he was asking for his life.

"Stop talking nonsense, why don't you just tie him up right away? Wait until I have time to send you to Lord Zunyuan. If you want to beg for mercy or have anything to save your life, just tell him."

"If not..." Chu Xiao suddenly had a handful of bamboo sticks in his hand: "In this deep forest, I'm sure no one would know if I pierced you like hedgehogs."

Several people were shocked. This person knew Marquis Zunyuan, so they couldn't let him leave alive.

After looking at each other, the rest of the people all raised their knives and rushed towards Chu Xiao.

Chu Xiao knew that some people would not cry until they saw the coffin, and would not stop until they suffered a little. For such short-sighted people, whether they live or die depends entirely on luck.

He threw a handful of bamboo sticks out without hesitation, and several men fell down before they got close, and waves of wailing could be heard one after another.

However, one of them did not say a word. He looked forward with his eyes wide open, made a gurgling sound in his throat, and then spat out a mouthful of blood foam.

Chu Xiao shook his head helplessly. This man had really bad luck as his throat was pierced by a bamboo stick.

As for the others, although they were injured, their injuries were not serious. After all, he didn't have enough wrist strength to throw a handful of bamboo sticks at once. These bamboo sticks could at most pierce into his flesh and blood, and should not even hurt his vital parts.

"Have mercy, young man, have mercy." The men who were really stabbed like hedgehogs were still howling in pain. On the contrary, the man who was stabbed on the instep first had already realized the reality and was kneeling on the ground begging for mercy.

"Tie them all up first."

Chu Xiao was a little annoyed. He had no intention of hurting these people. He just wanted to lead them down the mountain in a line and then leave them to Marquis Zunyuan, and he would have nothing to do with it.

But now there is one dead and four injured. Fortunately, those who are not dead have basically injured their legs. How is he going to get these people down the mountain?

He even had the thought of killing them all and being done with it.

It was just a casual thought. These people have backers behind them. If Marquis Zunyuan knew that someone was trying to harm him, he would let them fight on their own. But if these people died inexplicably on the mountain, he was afraid that the master they were talking about would think that he had discovered something and was killed.

Then there will be some peace in this deep mountain again.

Therefore, these people must not die quietly, and their master must be informed that all this was done by Zunyuan Hou.

Chu Xiao did not bring the person back to the thatched hut, but instead found a cave that could shelter him from the wind and rain and stuffed him in.

If this person wanted to run, he could certainly run, but he was covered in blood and in the mountains, so he would probably not be able to run far before being torn to pieces by wild beasts.

Before it was completely dark, Chu Xiao saw a wolf cub rushing into the yard. It was his brother Shen who had returned from hunting, and the wolf cub had come back to act nice.

It kept circling around Chu Xiao and wagging its tail until he was touched on the head, then it ran off to drink water contentedly.

Chu Xiao walked out of the yard and looked north. The tall figure of the man appeared in Chu Xiao's sight, with a silly roe deer in his hand.

Facing the ignorant eyes again, Chu Xiao was a little greedy: "This one is quite big. We can eat roe deer meat this winter."

"Well, now is the time when they are fat. I will kill them and give Cheng Xue a leg up."

"Do you think roe deer meat tastes better when braised or stir-fried?" Chu Xiaoguang, who had never tried it, couldn't help drooling at the thought.

"You can cook it however you want. Maybe you can even use it to make vermicelli stew."

"Then do everything."

"Yes, I'll do it all." Yan Zhenshen smiled at him lovingly.

The ignorant and stupid roe deer was led into the yard, unaware that a few words from this human had determined its future fate.
