If you traveled back to ancient times, while others ate Guanyin clay, you would actually have giant

After breakfast, Zhou Wu told Li Baiwei to stay home and then took his tools and went out.

"Hey~~ Brother Wu, wanna go hunting?"

On the way, Niu Er saw Zhou Wu's upgraded weapon, with a sword at his waist and a bow and arrows on his back. Niu Er was so envious that he almost drooled over Zhou Wu.

"Hmm, are you going to work in the fields?"

"Okay, then Brother Wu, you go ahead and do your thing."

Niu Er was afraid that if he watched any longer, he would try to snatch it, so he quickly said goodbye and left. However, as he passed by, a hint of loneliness appeared in his eyes.

Zhou Wu was in a good mood and naturally didn't notice any of this. He simply quickened his pace and arrived at a mountain hollow.

Yesterday, Zhou Wu bought some more ropes when he went to the county town, so he set up even more lasso traps this time. By the time he finished setting up the traps, it was almost noon. Zhou Wu took out the osmanthus cakes he had brought and ate them with the cold water from his water bottle. Then he found a spacious mountain hollow and started practicing archery.

"This place is nice, I'll practice my skills here first."

Zhou Wu found a crooked tree, stood about fifty meters away, and, recalling the archers on TV, began to imitate them in a very convincing manner.

"Take a deep breath, inhale, exhale, inhale, exhale."

"Relax, relax."

"Man and arrow become one."

"Relax your arms."

"put"

Okay, Zhou Wu admits he has no talent for archery. In this mere fifty meters, he not only missed the target, but also almost got his genitals snapped by the bowstring.

"Damn, this is too dangerous."

However, the more this happened, the more unconvinced Zhou Wu became, and he practiced repeatedly. But after only half an hour, Zhou Wu's hands felt like they were filled with lead.

"Damn, this is probably what Orochimaru felt when the Third Hokage's Shinigami cut off his hands and soul."

Although he had only practiced for half an hour, he had made great progress. At least he wouldn't accidentally hit his genitals anymore. However, this progress was still far from Zhou Wu's expectations, so after resting for half an hour, Zhou Wu picked up his bow again and began practicing.

Everything follows the law that practice makes perfect. After an afternoon of practice, although he is still far from being able to hit the bullseye every time, Zhou Wu can now draw his bow and shoot arrows normally, which is a good start.

Dragging my tired body, I began to check the lasso traps one by one. After more than a dozen traps, I caught a total of three rabbits, two pheasants, a squirrel, and two quails. Except for the squirrel and quails, which were dead, I don't know if they were too timid. The rabbits and pheasants were still alive and well, but their legs or bodies were entangled in the lassos, preventing them from escaping.

Upon seeing the live rabbits and pheasants, Zhou Wu immediately had the idea of ​​raising them. Anyway, there was no shortage of food, and raising them would be sustainable. Most importantly, he used to be alone, but now he had more help at home.

Thinking about this, Zhou Wu became even more determined to have this idea. Moreover, rabbits and chickens are relatively easy to raise and reproduce quickly.

On his way home, passing by Niu Er's house, Zhou Wu saw that the house, which should have been filled with the sounds of cooking fires, was completely dark. He looked at the prey in his hand and called out to Niu Er.

"Niu Er~~"

"Brother Wu, what's up, Brother Wu?"

"I was lucky today and caught some game. I can't eat it all, so I'll give you some."

"No, no, Brother Wu, this won't do. This family isn't having an easy time either."

"Hey, with our bow and arrows, are we afraid of not catching prey?"

Zhou Wu spoke nonsense with a straight face, without arousing any suspicion from Niu Er.

"That's not OK."

Niu Er stubbornly shook his head.

"Take it. Why are you nagging like that, you grown man? If it weren't for your family's occasional help, would I, Zhou Wu, be alive today?"

Zhou Wu forcefully handed it to Niu Er and left without looking back.

. . . . .

"Zhou Lang is back."

Li Baiwei, who had been staying at home all day, was finally able to wait for Zhou Wu to return, and quickly went forward to take the basket from him.

"There are two live rabbits and a live chicken inside. Find a cage and lock them up first."

When Zhou Wu handed over the basket, he quickly told Li Baiwei, otherwise if she was accidentally let out, she would run all over the yard and it would be difficult to catch her.

"Eh."

Li Baiwei couldn't stop smiling when she saw the prey in the basket on his back. She thought to herself that Zhou Lang was a capable man. She had only heard that he was a scholar, but she didn't expect him to be such a good hunter. With this skill, his future would surely be prosperous.

That evening, Zhou Wu specifically instructed Li Baiwei to cook some white rice, roast the two quails and the squirrel, and add the wild vegetables that Li Baiwei had picked during the day. With both vegetables and meat, it was quite a hearty meal.

"Zhou Lang."

"Okay, just tell me what's on your mind."

During the meal, Li Baiwei seemed hesitant to speak, and Zhou Wu knew that she must have something on her mind.

“I’m just sitting at home doing nothing all day. If there’s anything I can do, I’d like to do it.”

Li Baiwei spent a day at home tidying up the house, and then she had nothing else to do. However, she couldn't clean and tidy the house every day, so she asked Zhou Wu for some chores to do.

"Hey, it's nothing. Didn't you catch two rabbits and a pheasant? Just take good care of them."

"But."

"Is there not enough work?"

"Ah."

"Don't worry, it's not much now, but it will increase later. I guarantee you won't be able to handle it all by yourself. Just start doing it."

"it is good."

Hearing Zhou Wu say that, Li Baiwei finally felt relieved. As long as she had work to do, she felt at ease.

--------

Early the next morning.

Zhou Wu set off with his tools and, after climbing all the way, finally reached the first trap. However, this time the trap seemed to make a rather loud noise.

"what sound?"

From afar, Zhou Wu could hear the sound of some animal coming from the trap.

"Damn, is that a roe deer or a deer?"

A lasso was seen binding a deer-like creature. As the deer struggled, the lasso tightened. Zhou Wu quickly seized the opportunity and strode forward. When the deer saw someone appear, it struggled even more. Zhou Wu raised his bow and shot an arrow at the deer's head.

"Damn, it's off-center."

The deer struggled so hard that even though it was standing right in front of him, Zhou Wu couldn't shoot it accurately, which angered him so much that he fired wildly.

In the end, the deer died from being pierced by a hail of arrows, its wide-open eyes seemingly still protesting the injustice of the world.

Zhou Wu quickly put the deer into his basket and headed home.

"dong dong~~"

"Who?"

"It's me, Zhou Wu."

Upon hearing that it was Zhou Wu, Li Baiwei quickly opened the door.

"Zhou Lang, you've only just left home, why are you back so early?"

As soon as she finished asking the question, Li Baiwei saw what Zhou Wu was carrying on his back and immediately understood.

"Wow, what a huge deer!"

This deer weighs at least a hundred pounds. After removing the bones and internal organs, the meat alone weighs at least a hundred pounds. Zhou Wu quickly asked Li Baiwei to bring over a table and a knife.

"If we don't process it quickly, the blood will seep into the meat and it won't taste good."

Although not a professional butcher, Zhou Wu quickly butchered the deer, but deliberately left the two thighs uncut.

"There's still some salt in the kitchen. Marinate this meat, otherwise it won't last long."

"Good."

After saying that, Zhou Wu put the two deer legs into the basket, covered it, and went out. Li Baiwei saw this but didn't say anything.
