Chapter Sixteen: Hunting (Part One)

  Time is slowly moving forward in the shooting of little partners, at this time, it is no longer a single shot, but has been changed to double guns for shooting, that is, two people shoot at the same time.

  The bullets were slowly consumed until one day, Yang Wei found an excuse to be alone at home and took out more than 200 bullets from the hole in the ground.

  This is going to take a long time, so we have to conserve our bullets. Otherwise, every shot counts and we'll run out soon. The only advantage we have now is that these little friends are all kids. Kids learn things quickly, but they're also impatient. However, these little friends don't lack patience because they're thinking of their own interests. They can't afford to be impatient, after all, they're all poor kids.

  "Wei Zi, how are we going to spend this year?" "Ah, what's the point of spending the New Year, what's the time for that." At this moment, Yang Wei was a bit confused, he didn't even know it was the New Year. This is also reflected in his later years, where the New Year is just an ordinary holiday, and it's more of a children's New Year rather than an adult's New Year.

  "Yang Wei is really pitiful, his aunt passed away and he even forgot to celebrate the new year." The little friends below started discussing, they didn't know that Yang Wei's soul was no longer the original Yang Wei, otherwise, their days would not be so colorful.

  "Brother Wei, there are only a dozen or so days left until the New Year. I heard Aunt Wang say that I want to go to the market." "Market, when?" "Soon, there's still two or three days' time, this is the last big market before the New Year."

  Rushing to the market, Yang Wei suddenly realized that some things really needed to be bought. Before, he didn't know and it was fine, but now that he knew there was a market nearby, he had to go. The problem was, he didn't have any money on him, what to do?

  "Friends, don't make a sound, listen to me. We're going hunting for three days, and when we catch something, we'll go to the market." "Oh, great! Brother Wei, we can finally go hunting! I want to hunt big tigers, big gray wolves, and little white rabbits." Look at this little girl, she's really bold!

  "When hunting, we'll hit whatever we come across. I, Yingzi, and Xiaoshan will be responsible for driving the prey out of the woods, while you all hide in the trees, divided into two groups, taking turns shooting."

  "Brother Wei, Brother Wei, I also want to use a gun for hunting." Yingzi became anxious and pulled at Yang Wei's clothes, unwilling to give in. "Yingzi, didn't I say it's okay if you use a gun for hunting? We each have four bullets, and when we're done, the three of us will be finished."

  Why did Yang Wei distribute it like this? Don't mention Yang Wei for now, let's talk about Yingzi and Xiaoshan first. These two little kids are the smallest, so their bodies are the softest. As a result, their tree-climbing training became gymnastics training. Xiaoshan is slightly worse, but not by much. They can perform some high-difficulty movements while running, like a monkey, swinging their body onto the tree. Since they learned this move, they have never failed.

  Yingzi's movements were exceptionally standard, just like an Olympic champion, using standard gymnastics moves to jump continuously on the tree, and in a way that can be compared to high bar exercises.

  Yang Wei, although his body is not as agile and flexible, his development direction has also gone in two directions. One direction is great strength, now he can already move things that weigh five or six hundred catties. Another direction is lightness of the body, his speed can reach running on snow, the footprints left on the snow are only one-third of those when walking, it's fast, not some kind of "leaving no trace" kung fu, this article isn't talking about a martial arts hero.

  Nature, Yang Wei alone created the ability to run on trees. If this were placed in the forest of later generations, Yang Wei would not be able to do such things. However, in the forests of Northeast China during this era, there were large trees and dense woods, so Yang Wei was able to run on trees. This is also why he chose them three to start hunting.

  Before long, the little friends arrived at the depths of the forest, which was also known as entering the mountain. They had never been here before, and even the villagers hadn't come in either, because their village didn't have a profession like hunting yet. However, nearby villages did have hunters, but according to what they heard, even the hunters from nearby villages rarely came in. It's said that this place was where ferocious beasts began to appear.

  The young companions are also fearless like newborn calves, even Yang Wei, who has been with the young companions for a long time, his thinking is no longer that of an adult from later generations, but has become the thinking of a teenager in his early teens, and yet it matches up with his physical abilities.

  "Alright, everyone get up the tree. Be careful, don't mistake us three for prey and shoot at us. When hunting, we must bring the prey within 50 meters to shoot, or even closer. You guys be careful, you're in a tree, don't be afraid. The incoming prey won't climb trees, even if there are some that can, they can't handle us."

  Yang Wei directly arranged the little partners to two big trees, and these two big trees are close together. Not to mention a dozen or so children, even a dozen adults can also live in them.

  "Yingzi Xiaoyan, let's go, but don't stray too far from me. If we get lost in the mountains, it'll be terrible. We might starve or freeze to death in the mountains."

  "Uh-huh, Brother Wei, I'll listen to you, I'll definitely follow closely behind you." Yingzi naturally followed Yang Wei with a flattering tone, while Xiaoshan nodded coolly, "Uh-huh, Wei, I'll listen to you."

  "Alright, I'm in the middle, you two follow closely behind me. If you can't see me anymore, shout out loud." Yang Wei swiftly climbed to the top of the tree, while Yingzi and Xiaoshan began agile movements on either side.

  "Wooo!" This was Yingzi, excitedly shouting a jumbled mess of words. "Hee-haw!" This was Xiaoshan, his voice monotonous, naturally aiming to scare out the animals in the forest.

  Yang Wei started running on the tree, while Yingzi and Xiaoshan swung their bodies high and then landed on the next tree with one hand. Their speed was slightly slower, so Yang Wei had to slow down a bit to wait for them. Suddenly, countless birds in the mountain were startled, but the birds were not their target.

  "Yingzi, Xiaoyan, move towards the middle, don't scatter." Yang Wei would occasionally shout from the tree, and these two were too playful, naturally needing Yang Wei to keep them in check, or else they would really get lost deep in the mountains.
