Chapter 1: Lei Yin (Part 1)
Finally, a barbarian exceeded the position of Leixing Peak, climbed to the top of Leixing Peak's branches, and slowly approached, soon standing up, preparing to pounce down directly. At this time, a steel spear silently stabbed from the side, no matter how thick the barbarian's skin was, it couldn't withstand the spear's killing blow, after all, the barbarian's skin wasn't as tough as that of a wild ox.
Kill!
Ke Da Shan held a steel spear and stabbed wildly, seven or eight steel spears crisscrossing as they stabbed out. The hunters who launched the attack did not expect to kill this barbarian, they just hoped to force him down, so several people tacitly forced their way up.
That barbarian suddenly became flustered, he originally had a steel spear in his hand, but it was thrown out at the beginning, so he was empty-handed. If he had a weapon, he would not be afraid of these thin steel spears.
Lei Xingfeng continuously swept with his steel spear, only to discover that the barbarian had already climbed to the top of his head. He couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, knowing that if he was pounced on, he would definitely fall off the tree. Even if he didn't die from the fall, he would lose half his life. In the midst of his busyness, he suddenly raised his hand and swept upwards, emitting a dazzling light from his fingertips that instantly struck the barbarian's body above him. Instantly, the barbarian's entire body stiffened.
A dozen or so ropes suddenly flew out and quickly wrapped around that barbarian's body.
Ke Dashi was overjoyed and suddenly shouted: "Kill!"
Every besieged hunter knows that this is a rare opportunity, and everyone uses all their strength, with muscles bursting all over their body, madly stabbing and killing.
Pffft! Pffft! Pffft......
Seventeen or eighteen long spears were all stabbed into the bodies of the barbarians, and each one pierced through the body of a barbarian. The most fatal was Ke Dashi's steel spear, which directly pierced the heart and killed with one blow.
That savage, after the hunter had drawn out his long spear, saw him tumble head foremost down the tree, crashing through innumerable small branches and leaves, and thud heavily to the ground.
The barbarian leader went crazy, he watched as one by one his subordinates died. This was a situation he had never seen before, even when surrounded by human masters, he had not seen such heavy casualties. Now only he and four other barbarians were left, the others were either dead or heavily injured. At this moment, another one was killed, how could he not go crazy?
This guy didn't chop at Leixing Peak, but instead let out a loud shout. The other three barbarians pressed forward, forcing Leixing Peak to retreat repeatedly. Then he discovered that the leader of the barbarians had started chopping down trees, specifically the thick branch under his feet. The diameter of this branch was absolutely over five meters, but looking at the leader's giant axe, chopping such a branch didn't seem to require much effort.
Ke Dashi and others loudly shouted for Lei Xingfeng to quickly get out of the way.
The leader of the barbarians shouted, and the remaining three barbarians did not come forward to fight, but instead protected their leader, covering him as he chopped down trees. Cao Dashan and his men suddenly became desperate, shouting loudly, several hunters rushed up.
Lei Xingfeng shouted loudly: "Uncle Ke! Fall back, fall back! I have a way to solve it!"
Ke Dashi did trust Lei Xingfeng, he immediately stopped advancing and retreated quickly with several hunters.
Lei Xingfeng sneered and threw out a Thunder Needle, he only had four in total. The power of the disposable wheel was great, but the drawback was that once used, it was gone. Last time, he had already used one to deal with the Eagle Claw, leaving him with three Thunder Needles. Unless absolutely necessary, he wouldn't use them. This time, he finally waited for the barbarians to gather together, coincidentally within the range of the Thunder Needle's explosion. Without hesitation, he shot out the Thunder Needle.
The explosion flashed with a silver light, and its speed was incredibly fast, rushing straight towards the four barbarians.
The barbarian leader reacted just as quickly, he didn't even see what was coming at him, but his extremely rich combat experience had already raised the huge axe in his hand to rapidly block the vital parts of his body.
Lei Xingfeng suddenly shouted: "Explode!"
A circle of lightning suddenly expanded, instantly engulfing the four men. The barbarian leader reacted quickly, holding up his giant axe, a force beyond compare struck the axe head, while the other three barbarians had no cover, instantly turning into bloody flesh fragments.
The leader of the barbarians was also severely injured, his giant axe slipped out of his hands, the handle shattered, and both feet were broken. However, due to the blocking of the giant axe, he did not lose his life immediately. Nevertheless, he could no longer stand up and was knocked down by this powerful force.
Crashing sounds, the leader of the barbarians fell from a height of over 150 meters. If it weren't for the branches blocking the way, falling from such a high place would have made survival impossible. Fortunately, the dense branches and leaves blocked the way, allowing him to keep his life. At this time, a barbarian rushed out from the nearby bushes, grabbed the leader, and desperately ran towards the distance.
Lei Xingfeng shook his head in dismay, not expecting another barbarian to move. He clearly saw that the barbarian had an arrow inserted on his arm, which should be a temporarily hidden barbarian during the previous attack.
All the hunters on the giant tree let out a thunderous cheer, and everyone's heart was filled with excitement at having narrowly escaped death. They couldn't believe they had managed to escape this disaster, and as a result, they admired Lei Xingfeng even more, bowing down to him in admiration.
Hu Cangya led seven or eight famous hunting team captains to come before Lei Xingfeng, thanking him. If it weren't for Lei Xingfeng's intervention this time, I'm afraid half of the people would have been lucky enough to escape.
Lei Xingfeng knew that as the main hunter, he had secured his position. Of course, he wouldn't be too concerned about it; after all, his pursuit wasn't this, but rather to become a Mysterious Wheel Master as soon as possible.
Ke Dashi wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, earlier the barbarian leader's chopping of the tree had really scared him, he said: "Fortunately Ah Feng is formidable, this barbarian... is truly terrifying, just a few axe chops and a large gap was chopped out..."
Suddenly, a hunter shouted: "Wow, the barbarian's prey!"
In an instant, the people on the tree all reacted and shouted in surprise and joy. To know that this group of barbarians was dragging forty heads of barbarian cow corpses, which is a huge fortune.
Lei Xingfeng immediately said: "Master Hu, you arrange it. First drive away the beasts that have been driven here, and then start transporting the barbaric cows! We'll allocate them when we get back. The smell of blood is getting heavier and heavier here, we need to act fast!"
In fact, some beasts have already started dragging the bodies of barbarians and barbarian cows on the ground. Due to the large number of corpses, the beasts have not yet fought over them, but the threatening roars they make can be heard.
Hu Cangya shouted loudly, and many hunters came down from the trees. The woman hiding in the tree hole also followed them down.
The savages on the ground had been dragged away by the beasts, and many were seriously injured. Hu Cang immediately ordered the hunters to thoroughly kill these savages, then threw them outside to attract those beasts. The others began to divide the savage oxen, as the hunters didn't have the strength of the savages, they had to divide the oxen and transport them away. Fortunately, there were many people this time, and forty savage oxen were quickly dismembered, with large chunks of meat placed in backpacks.
Everyone has to carry a big basket on their back and also shoulder a large package of meat with another person.
Lei Xingfeng led a dozen or so fierce hunters, surrounding the crowd and walking around. Lei Xingfeng continuously shot out arrows, killing the beasts that got too close. After several rounds, he had actually killed two large leopards, one black tiger, four violent bears, and over a dozen red-spotted wolf dogs. Not a single arrow was wasted, with each one hitting its mark, leaving the onlookers gasping in shock.
These are also prey, and people are called to carry them away immediately. Food is hard to come by in the cold season, and there can be no waste.
Hu Cangya's face was flushed with excitement, this hunt, although many hunters were killed or injured, but the harvest was also huge, if they could successfully transport the prey back to Hu Cang Fortress, this winter, Hu Cang Fortress would not be so difficult.
At noon, Hu Cangya gave an order, and everyone began to move towards the direction of Huyabao. Along the way, they sang and laughed, and their joyful emotions overflowed from their words.
……
Huyaobao had a two-day collective carnival, and all the people of Huyaobao worked together to sort out the harvested prey, skinning and salting them for distribution. Leixingfeng got the largest share, including two heads of wild cattle and some other prey, as well as several pieces of wild cattle hide and horns. Leixingfeng kept the meat and exchanged the hides and horns for cassava flour and wheat flour, also getting dried wild fruits and vegetables, all good things to get through the cold season.
This successful hunt let everyone in Hu Yanbao breathe a sigh of relief. As long as each hunting team can hunt some ordinary prey, such as wild chickens and rabbits, before the arrival of winter, it will be enough to supplement their food.
According to this year's climate, old people all say that this winter will be absolutely unbearable and it should be a super cold season.
Lei Xingfeng and Lei Bao Lao Ren, as well as little Lei Xingyao, were busy collecting firewood and dead branches in the back mountain, for a large amount of fuel was needed during the cold season.
Behind the mountain, there is a large forest with many dead trees, which are all excellent fuel. Both Leixing Feng and Leibao have great strength, and Leixing Yao helps to tie them up. Don't look at the little girl being young, her strength is not small, and she is very agile with her hands and feet, absolutely a good helper.
In the mountains behind our village, there have been a lot of old people and children collecting firewood and dry leaves these days.
At the end of winter, it is also the season for harvesting wild fruits. A large number of fruits are ripe, and various kinds of fruits hang on the branches. Leixingfeng and Leibao not only need to drag a lot of wood, but also pick ripe fruits and take them back to dry.
Lei Xingfeng and his family of three quickly gathered enough wood and a large amount of wild fruit. The wood needed to be split, and the wild fruit needed to be dried in the sun. They were extremely busy for over ten days, using all their time except for fixed periods of cultivation and sleep on this task.
When the first heavy snow fell, Lei Xingfeng's family had already prepared all the food and fuel.
