Survival skills maxed out, I feed my wife and daughter by catching fish and shrimp

"Sir, are you trying to make fun of me?"

The stall owner looked unhappy and asked, "You are a newbie with muscle weakness. What are you going to do with ten pots of arrows?"

Chen Erlang slapped one tael of silver and two strings of cash on the table, and the stall owner immediately handed over the bow and arrow with a smile on his face.

"Sir, you're clearly a talented marksman. You'll definitely win first place in this year's autumn hunt!"

Autumn hunting?

Chen Changfan seemed to have heard someone else say this.

The green mountains stretch for hundreds of miles and there are many wild animals. An autumn hunt is held every autumn. If you come out on top, there seems to be a generous reward.

However, Chen Changfan has no plans to participate in the autumn hunt for the time being. The hail disaster always gives him a strong sense of urgency. He will wait until the shelter is in place before doing anything else.

Chen Changfan put the bow and arrow on the horse's back. The stall owner came forward to help him. Chen Changfan smiled faintly:

"Do you have a map of Qingshan? Give me one."

The stall owner immediately offered it with a smile, "This map is worth 88 coins, consider it a gift to you!"

Chen Changfan spread it out and took a look.

This map is too simple...

How dare you tell me it’s worth 88 cents?

"This map only records the general terrain of the first mountain. The second mountain is too dangerous, and even experienced hunters dare not easily go deep into it."

Seeing Chen Changfan's disappointed face, the stall owner immediately explained.

"By the way, sir, if you want to go hunting in Qingshan, it would be best to find a hunter to accompany you. There are wild beasts in the mountains, and it's easy to get lost. It's best to find a hunter to lead you. I have a few hunters I know here, and they'll only cost 188 coins..."

Chen Changfan jumped on the horse and didn't give the stall owner any chance to continue selling.

What a joke! He went into the mountains to find the entrance to the cave, so what was the point of following others?

Sitting on the pony, he studied the map carefully.

There are three rivers flowing through Qingshan.

These rivers may be connected to underground rivers.

If we follow the river, we might be able to find the entrance to the cave.

Walking southwest along the official road, you will see vast green mountains. As you continue along the rugged mountain road, there will gradually be no people on the road.

The little pony climbed the mountain all the way and remained energetic, worthy of being a gifted mountain running horse.

When the rolling green hills were right under his feet, Chen Changfan couldn't help but get excited.

In late autumn, the dew is heavy and the grass and trees are withered, so the view in the forest is still clear.

If there really was an ambush around, he would be able to detect it in time.

Along the way, apart from seeing a few pheasants and rabbits, there was not a single person in sight.

"It must be the rumors about the banditry. No one dares to go out."

It’s better that there is no one here, as it makes it easier for him to explore the forest more deeply.

It has to be said that the wild resources in ancient times were also very rich. Pheasants and rabbits could be seen almost everywhere, as well as various wild mushrooms and wild persimmons.

He tasted a wild persimmon, which was sour and astringent, and its flavor was far inferior to the large crystal persimmons in his previous life, but it was still a unique flavor.

This is because the famine did not reach this point. If a famine had really happened, not to mention mushrooms and persimmons, even the tree bark would have been stripped clean by the victims.

Although the famine hasn't started in Qingshan County yet, it shouldn't be too far away...

Once the Little Ice Age comes, it will be a disaster that will last for decades or even hundreds of years.

With the current fragile agricultural level of the Dawu Dynasty, it is simply unable to feed the existing population.

Famine was inevitable.

Moreover, there are already various signs in Qingshan County.

"The weather is getting colder day by day, and winter will arrive next month. Once the river freezes over, fishing will be impossible. Then hunting in the mountains might be a way to make a living."

Although Chen Changfan has never been a hunter, he knows a lot.

After all, there are benefits to surfing the Internet all year round in the previous life.

The biggest characteristic of keyboard warriors is that they know a little bit about everything, but not much.

This just happened to match his own golden finger. With a little practice, he could deduce any skill in the system panel.

After decades of deduction, even if one has poor talent, one can still deduce the skills to a high level of perfection.

Susu!

Suddenly, a sound came from the bushes not far away.

Looking over, I saw a gray rabbit hiding in the grass.

Chen Changfan took out his longbow, quickly aimed it at the bushes, and suddenly released the bowstring.

call out--

The arrow shot straight into the grass, and the hare had no time to react before being hit.

It struggled and jumped a few times, and finally kicked its legs and died.

"The penetrating power of the Erli bow is really poor... I'm afraid it can only be used to shoot rabbits and pheasants. If it encounters a bear, I'm afraid I won't even be able to penetrate its fur."

However, this two-force bow is not necessarily all about disadvantages.

The heavier the bowstring, the slower you draw the bow.

At the same time, the four-force bow had probably just drawn its bowstring when the two-force bow had already shot out two arrows.

The main feature of his Light Rain Archery technique is its high shooting speed and continuous attack. Once he locks onto the target, he can shoot it into a hedgehog in an instant.

Chen Changfan dismounted to pick up the rabbit, but he saw a hunting dog running towards him from a distance. The dog grabbed the rabbit and turned around and ran away.

"Damn dog, you got me."

Chen Changfan drew his bow and shot the hunting dog in the hind leg.

The hunting dog howled and fell over, with the rabbit in its mouth falling to the side.

"How dare this blind bastard attack my hunting dog!"

Suddenly, a burly figure emerged from the woods. The man had a scar on his face and was dressed like a hunter. He shouted at Chen Changfan.

Chen Changfan sneered, "It was your dog that stole my rabbit..."

The hunter glared and said, "You don't understand the rules of this mountain. New hunters have to give half of their prey to old hunters!"

Chen Changfan stopped talking and shot an arrow directly.

The arrow pierced directly into the hunter's foot, almost right next to his toes.

The hunter was startled, his expression changed, and his tone softened a little.

"Brother, let's talk it over. Put down your bow first..."

Chen Changfan remained unmoved. "How can I talk to you properly when you come up here and want to share my prey?"

The hunter estimated the distance between the two and found it to be at least seventy steps away. It was amazing that the young man could shoot so accurately.

He kicked the hound and cursed, "You damn dog! Who told you to come and steal other people's prey? Are you tired of living?"

The hound whimpered twice and its tail drooped.

Seeing Chen Changfan still looking sullen, the hunter immediately apologized with a smile, "Brother, it seems this is just a misunderstanding. Look, your rabbit isn't lost, and my dog ​​is injured. How about we just call it a day?"

Chen Changfan snorted coldly and put down his longbow.

Chen Changfan didn't want to make enemies as soon as he entered the mountains.

But if a person is not ruthless, he cannot stand firm. If he is easy to bully, he will probably have to hand over his prey to others in the future.

That's why he showed off his archery skills, and he really stunned the hunter.

"Brother, you are a great archer! My name is Qiao Liu, and I am an old hunter in this mountain range."

Qiao Liu pulled the arrow out of the hunting dog's leg, applied some herbs on it, and returned the arrow.

Chen Changfan took the arrow, his expression slightly softened. "My name is Chen Changfan. I'm new here, so I'm considered... a new hunter, I guess."

Qiao Liu chuckled and rubbed his hands together, saying, "Look, we're not strangers to each other, so why don't we go together and split the prey we catch in half?"

Chen Changfan was amused. "You are an old hunter, yet you are willing to take a newcomer like me with you. Aren't you afraid of being at a disadvantage?"

He finally saw it.

This Qiao Liu must be not very good at hunting and can't catch any prey, so he lets the dogs out to snatch it away.

He must have seen his amazing archery skills, so he came up with the idea of ​​forming a team.

What a good calculation!

Chen Changfan ignored Qiao Liu's gaze and walked forward to pick up the rabbit.

Unexpectedly, this wild rabbit was quite fat, probably weighing two or three kilograms.

"Never mind. It's okay if we don't divide it equally. We can each catch our own. As long as we're together, it's fine. There's no one to talk to in this vast mountain."

Now that Qiao Liu had said this, Chen Changfan could no longer refuse.

Just go with Qiao Liu.

Maybe I can learn some skills or get some useful information out of him.
