Chapter 296 Killing the Wolf(1/2)
"Swearing is an art." Li Famo talked freely, "If you want to gain the initiative in the war of scolding, it does not mean how intense your words are, or how meticulous your logic is, but that you have the mood to be invincible."
No matter how much you say, I will remain unmoved.
Xiao Jinyan laughed loudly, "I really didn't expect that there are so many things to pay attention to." But he thought to himself that Li Shamo was still calculating himself last night, but today he was chatting and laughing in front of him. With this, he felt ashamed of himself.
Everyone is ready.
The official of the Ministry of Rites shouted, "Please ask your Majesty, Prince Breguet to shoot arrows for winter hunting!"
In the enclosure, officials had already released three or five rabbits and pheasants. These animals were fed medicine, walking shaking and moving slowly. This made it easier for Chu Bieli and King Breguet to aim at archery.
The two had changed their clothes and came to the stadium on horseback. They rode their horses twice in the hunting ground, which attracted everyone's cheers.
Two eunuchs brought two iron bows up.
Breguet's kingly saying, "Your Majesty ask first."
Chu Bieli said, "Brother Wang, please."
King Breguet said again, "How can my Great Chu Dynasty win the world for hundreds of years? With the support of the horse, your Majesty is the leader of all officials. You should be an example for your ministers. Your Majesty will ask first."
Chu Bielixu gave in, "Brother Wang worked hard and made great contributions. This first arrow was awarded the honor of Brother Wang."
The two gave in a few more rounds.
Chu Bieli refused, so he bowed and said, "Then I will come first."
Just as he was about to shoot an arrow, King Breguet suddenly took the lead, rode his horse forward a few steps, took a bow and shot an arrow, and finished it in one go.
Whoosh!
An arrow fell into nothing.
All the civil and military officials looked at each other and swallowed the prepared flattery into their stomachs. Suddenly, a general said, "The prince is good at archery!"
This sentence is a bit out of place, and it sounds a bit ridiculous at this moment. Everyone saw that the general was the disciple of King Breguet, and the Western King's tent was Bian Shixing, waiting to see the fun.
General Bian continued, "The prince is kind and kind, and the bodhisattva is heartless. He cannot bear to kill, so he deliberately shot this arrow. Only in this state of mind can I establish the prestige of the Celestial Empire and attract all nations to come to the court!"
King Breguet heard it as if he had taken a Shunxin Pill and smiled, "Well said!"
The others were full of annoyance, secretly blaming themselves for not thinking of such words? However, it is better to say it again than not say it, and they also followed the sound of flattery and were amazed.
Breguet's kingly saying, "Your Majesty, please."
Chu Bieli was snatched away, but he was angry, but he didn't dare to make an attack. He took an arrow, but he didn't aim, and shot an arrow.
Of course, it was much more biased.
He looked at everyone and thought to himself, let's see what you said.
The previous general Bian said, "Your Majesty, a monarch should set a target and hit wherever he points, but this arrow is a bit outrageous."
As soon as this statement was spoken, the ministers did not dare to speak.
Bian Shixing was too brave. He even accused His Majesty and challenged His Majesty's authority in front of all civil and military officials. This was a charge of beheading. He also thought that he was the Breguet King. If he had not been instructed by Chu Breguet, he would not dare to speak.
Chu Bieli's face turned pale and his whole body was trembling with anger, and said, "What a bian Shixing, how dare you say such a rude word? Shi Shangshu, what should he do according to the law?"
Shi Shangshu of the Ministry of Justice looked at King Breguet, then looked at Chu Bieli, and didn't know how to reply. The gods fought, the mortals suffered, the city gate caught fire, and the fish in the pond was affected. His Majesty and the Prince, one of the emperors, the other had real power, and he did not want to offend, nor did he dare to offend.
Thinking of this, he gritted his teeth and pretended not to sit firmly. He fell down from his horse and pretended to faint.
"Shangshu Qin, you are a deputy, how should you deal with this matter?"
Qin Shangshu secretly cursed Shi Shangshu's old fox in his heart. He also followed suit. He fell to the ground with his head raised. When he landed, he accidentally kicked the horse on the back. The war horse under his crotch was frightened, jumped up, took a few steps forward, and stepped on Shi Shangshu's ankle in front.
Ao!

Shitou Shangshu was still pretending to be dead, but was trampled by a hoof. He gritted his teeth and did not move. Beads of sweat flowed down from his forehead.
Chu Bieli snorted coldly and asked King Breguet, "What should the prince do if he thinks it should be done?"
Chu Baoji laughed, "General Bian offended the emperor's majesty and should be executed according to the law. However, when he was first offender, he was fined three months and sent to Ningkuta to clean the toilet. Bian Shihua, are you convinced?"
Ningkuta is located in the northern border of Da Chu. It is an extremely cold place and a place where the prisoners of Da Chu are exiled. The environment is very harsh. Nine out of ten prisoners who have been exiled here will not return.
General Bian shouted, "I am not convinced!"
“Why?”
“Ningkuta has no toilets!”
Breguet pretended to be in a daze, "Your Majesty, since Ningkuta has no toilet, why don't you forget about this?"
Chu Bieli saw the two of them singing and reconcile, and King Breguet defended him everywhere and sneered, "Since the prince said that, then let's do it."
After saying that, he led his entourage to the depths of the paddock.
A gong sounded.
Winter hunting officially begins.
The crowd gathered and urged the horses to move forward. Ten teams of hunting competitions also took light clothes and walked into the deep mountains separately.
It was snowing heavily last night, and it was deep winter again. The snow in the mountains had not melted. Many beasts in the mountains came out of the cave nests to find food, leaving traces on the ground.
Xiao Jinyan, Li Demo and his group looked for prey along the way. After an hour, they only caught three hares and a pheasant. As for elk, deer, wild boar, etc., they didn't even find any footprints.
Buda said, "If this continues, it will be dark, and we will probably count down."
This is not the first time Li Demo participated in a hunting trip. He is more familiar with the terrain of Tianmu Mountain. He said, "I remember walking forward and there is a bear nest."
According to the rules of hunting competition, small mountain birds, hares, etc., get one point for hunting, like elks, deer, etc., get five points for one, and wolves twenty points for twenty points. If you can hunt tigers, bears, etc., you will get a hundred points at one time. However, like beasts, you can hardly find it. And if you don’t have real skills, you will not have time to escape, let alone hunting.
Xiao Jinyan noticed that some trees in the mountains were marked by people, and seemed to have been carved into the direction with sharp objects. Li Demo chose to follow the marked route more than once, and couldn't help but cheer up.
After leaving for a while, everyone heard the sound of fighting in front of them. The four of them rushed over and were immediately shocked by the scene in front of them.
There were dozens of corpses lying in the mountains and forests. Almost none of these corpses were complete, and their bodies seemed to be hollowed out by some kind of beast, and their internal organs were flowing all over the ground. Blood was splattered everywhere, mixed with the snow.
Look at these people's outfits, they are all guards in the palace, and a few of them are the ones who went into the mountains to hunt with Chu Bieli.
A moan came.
Xiao Jinyan noticed that a general was covered in blood, his chest was pierced by a sharp blade, leaning against a pine tree, supporting the ground with a long sword.
They rushed over and Li Demo said, "Commander Jiang!"
The man was seriously injured, and the weather was cold and he gradually lost consciousness. He said, "Your Majesty is attacked, rescue you quickly!"
"Where is Your Majesty?"
Commander Na Jiang pointed in a direction, "When we were hunting, we encountered a wolf attack, and four shadows escorted His Majesty..."
After saying that, his head tilted and he died of anger.
Li Shamo said, "This person is one of the shadows around His Majesty. Now that His Majesty is dead, it seems that the hunting plan has been ruined."
Ali also said, "It's important to save the car."
Xiao Jinyan didn't know what to do in Li Demo's gourd, but was worried about Chu Bieli's safety, so he changed his plan and followed the direction pointed by Commander Jiang.
The footprints on the ground were messy. When they retreated, they broke many shrub branches, and there was still blood on them. When they touched, there was still warmth. It can be seen that Chu Bieli and the others had not walked far away. In addition to human footprints, there were also many wolf marks on the ground. After counting them, there were nearly a hundred heads.
"There is a wolf corpse there!" Ali said.
Four people went over, Li Demo looked through the corpse
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
, said in a deep voice, "It's the Dykewolf!"
Xiao Jinyan was puzzled, and Ali explained, "The evil wolf in the northern border of the snow land wolf is cruel by nature and bloodthirsty. Once you identify the target, you will never give up until you achieve your goal. Such a wolf should not appear here."
Li Demo also said, "When the imperial court was in the hunting ground, it had already hunted beasts in the mountains. In order to increase the fun of hunting, only a few were left and strictly controlled the number. If there were hundreds of direwolfs here at once, it would be abnormal."
Buda said, "You mean, someone deliberately let the wolves in?"
"This possibility is not ruled out."
The four of them did not dare to be careless, and after a cup of tea, they heard the sound of wolf howlings. They came to the front and saw a huge rock one meter tall in the mountain. Five people stood on it, holding weapons and being wary. The leader was wearing bright yellow armor, which was Chu Bieli.
Chu Bieli was injured on his wrist and still held a long knife.
Under the huge rock, nearly seventy or eighty snow-drift wolves surrounded the stones and made whimpering sounds. Among them, there were a few evil wolves who helped to run a few steps and jumped up, but they were still more than three feet away.
The two sides are in a stalemate.
Li Shamo said, "Brother Xiao, go and lead the wolf pack away, I'll go and save the car."
Xiao Jinyan was worried and said, "No, it's too dangerous. You go and attract the wolf, I'll find a way to lean over."
Li Shamo looked at him with great meaning, nodded, "Well." He pulled out the soft sword from his waist, picked up another stone, and threw it at one of the wolf.
Ao!
The wolf's head was hit by a stone, and his head was immediately broken. Li Demo whistled and provoked the group of wolves.
The head wolf looked here and called out a few times. There were about a dozen dizzy wolf and rushed over toward him. Li Demo said to the Ali brothers, "Prepare to fight."
After saying that, he waved his sword and rushed towards more than ten wolves.
