Chapter 164: Teaching Jiang Ruoan to Improve His Marksmanship (Subscription Request)

However, she did not let go immediately.

If they release it at this time, if Yingwu really finds Xu Ye and the others, it will affect their hunting.

So, Jiang Ruyue decided to wait until the gunshot happened before making any decision.

Anyway, the distance is not very far, so if a gun is fired, I will definitely be able to hear it.

Xu Ye didn't know that Jiang Ruyue was going to release a hawk to send a letter to him. He hadn't thought about that yet.

He was taking Jiang Ruoan with him and moving quickly towards the location where the two goshawks were circling.

"Brother Ye, what kind of animal do you think it is? It can't be a wild boar again, right?" Jiang Ruoan asked in a low voice.

She was very curious about what the prey would be this time.

"It shouldn't be a small animal, maybe a muntjac or something like that. There shouldn't be so many wild boars in this area." Xu Ye replied.

It takes a lot of food to feed wild boars.

For such a large area, it is already quite impressive to support twenty or so wild boars.

Any more and there won't be enough food.

Jiang Ruoan nodded, followed Xu Ye, and kept getting closer to the prey.

After twenty minutes of quick travel, they finally approached the location of the prey.

With his extraordinary eyesight, Xu Ye finally found the prey.

Two black muntjacs appeared in Xu Ye's sight.

It’s not a wild boar!

Jiang Ruoan had not yet seen the black muntjac, but it seemed to have discovered them and suddenly jumped and ran away.

If he runs away, you have to chase him.

Hunting is like this, it often requires chasing prey.

Xu Ye had been mentally prepared, so he was not in a hurry at all.

Jiang Ruoan didn't see it, but she saw the hawk in the sky move.

"Brother Ye, the goshawk has moved. Did its prey escape?" Jiang Ruoan asked curiously. After all, she had no experience.

"Yes, it must have run away, so the goshawk followed it." Xu Ye explained.

"Then should we chase them?" Jiang Ruoan asked and turned to look in the direction of the camp.

You can still see the camp here, but if you keep chasing, you won't be able to see it anymore.

"Chase, that's what hunting is like. The prey is alive and it's impossible for it to stay in the same place forever." Xu Ye made a choice.

Jiang Ruoan said nothing and followed silently.

The two chased for more than ten minutes and finally saw the black muntjac again.

This time, Xu Ye saw three black muntjacs.

Jiang Ruoan also saw it and seemed a little excited.

She whispered, "Brother Ye, black muntjac, I saw it."

"Yeah, I saw it too."

"Find a suitable angle and spank the buttocks or hind legs." Xu Ye instructed.

After all, if we kill them, we have to take them down the mountain.

If we wait until the people who have come down the mountain come back, it will take too long and the meat will go bad.

Soon, the two men found a suitable position for shooting.

After aiming at his target, Xu Ye started counting.

On the count of three, both men fired simultaneously.

Two gunshots were heard in succession, and the bullets were fired towards the black muntjac.

Xu Ye's bullet hit the black muntjac's thigh directly, and blood mist splashed up.

This time Jiang Ruoan didn't shoot accurately. The bullet failed to hit the black muntjac, but hit the tree nearby.

"I missed it, what a pity." Jiang Ruoan watched the black muntjac he was aiming at run away, and immediately slapped his thigh.

"Leopard, go." Xu Ye gave the order to the leopard.

After hearing the command, the leopard rushed out and chased the black muntjac.

Today the leopard no longer needs to be tied with a rope, because without Xu Ye's order, it will not rush out or act on its own.

"Don't be discouraged, your shooting skills are already very good." Xu Ye comforted.

"Well, I will continue to improve my marksmanship." Jiang Ruoan said very optimistically, without any sign of discouragement.

"Let's go." After saying that, she took the first step and ran towards the fallen black muntjac.

The two of them ran quickly and soon came to the side of the black muntjac.

[Harvest 65 catties of black muntjac, hunting attribute +0.65]

This black muntjac is not very big, so there is no need to take it down the mountain to sell it. It can be kept for eating on the mountain.

The hunting team also needs food and drink when they go into the mountains.

Hunting and running around consumes a lot of physical energy, and eating just a sweet potato is definitely not enough.

The reason for bringing sweet potatoes is to provide a safety net.

Even if we fail to catch any prey, we won’t go hungry.

The black muntjac still tried to escape, but Xu Ye directly pressed down its body and asked Jiang Ruoan to tie it up with a rope.

I won't chase the others. After the two gunshots, the two black muntjacs that were not hit must have run away frantically. It won't be easy to catch up with them.

After tying up the black muntjac, the next step is to carry it back.

However, before going back, Xu Ye decided to do something else.

For example, teach Jiang Ruoan how to shoot.

Jiang Ruoan took out the kettle, drank some water, and prepared to take a break.

After chasing the black muntjac for a while, everyone was sweating. "Brother Ye, you should drink something too." Jiang Ruoan handed the kettle to Xu Ye.

"Yeah." Xu Ye took the kettle and hugged Jiang Ruoan over.

"Come, let me teach you a special way to drink water." Having said that, Xu Ye started teaching directly.

There are hawks circling in the sky and leopards on the ground on guard, so there is no need to worry about any prey approaching.

Soon, Jiang Ruoan learned the special method.

After resting for a while, Xu Ye taught Jiang Ruoan how to use a gun.

Jiang Ruoan's marksmanship can indeed be improved, at least to the level of Jiang Ruyue.

Halfway through the practice, Xu Ye suddenly heard an eagle cry.

I looked up and found that Yingwu appeared above my head.

"Brother Ye, has something happened to my sister?" Jiang Ruoan couldn't help but become worried and even threw his gun aside.

"Don't panic, she has four hunting dogs with her, nothing will happen to her." Xu Ye comforted her and then stretched out his hand.

Yingwu fell directly down and landed on Xu Ye's arm.

"Look, there is a strip of cloth on its legs." As he said that, Xu Ye quickly untied the cloth.

After taking a look, Xu Ye found that there were words written on it.

"A letter sent by flying eagle?" Jiang Ruoan's eyes lit up when he saw the words on it.

"Well, it was indeed the flying eagles that delivered the message. I didn't even think of using them as messengers!" Xu Ye couldn't help but mutter.

Countless thoughts emerged in my mind.

Sending messages via eagle flight is indeed a good idea.

In this way, it is possible to establish contact with the village.

If I go into the mountains without Jiang Ruoan and the others in the future, I can use this to report my safety to them or pass on a message.

Although it is not as advanced as the mobile phones of later generations, it can already meet the need of transmitting messages.

"We will also send a piece of cloth back to tell our sister that we have killed a black muntjac and go back in an hour." Jiang Ruoan said excitedly.

She thought the story of delivering letters by eagle was very interesting, and quickly took out a strip of cloth from her bag to serve as a rope.

Xu Ye found that it was not very convenient to write on the cloth strip, so he said: "The cloth strip is still not convenient enough. Next time we will make a ring on its leg so that we can put the note in it."

Jiang Ruoan nodded and tied the written strip of cloth around Yingwu's leg.

"Go back, go back to find my sister Jiang Ruyue." After saying that, Jiang Ruoan let Yingwu fly away.

"Okay, Brother Ye, let's continue and go back after we're done." As he said that, Jiang Ruoan lay down again, ready to finish practicing the gun that he had not yet completed.

A few minutes later, Jiang Ruyue saw Ying Wu.

A smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, and she felt that her eagle-like message delivery should have been successful.

By the time Yingwu landed, she was even more certain.

Because the cloth strip was tied on her left leg before, but now it is on her right leg.

After solving it, I found Jiang Ruoan's handwriting.

However, she did not continue to pass on the books, as she knew that the two people must be very busy.

An hour later, she saw Ying Gu and Ying Yong in the sky again.

This means that Xu Ye and the others have returned.

However, the distance was still a bit far, and it would take some time for them to return to this temporary camp.

Half an hour later, Xu Ye appeared in front of Jiang Ruyue carrying a black muntjac.

"Sister, we only shot a black muntjac. If I had known earlier, I would have let you go. With your marksmanship, you can definitely shoot one." Jiang Ruoan said with some regret.

Looking at Jiang Ruoan's rosy face, Jiang Ruyue couldn't help but smile and took her arm.

"Silly girl, the key point is that you come with us. Once you go, your marksmanship will naturally have a chance to improve, right?" After saying this, Jiang Ruyue did not forget to wink at him.

Jiang Ruoan's face couldn't help but blush, and she bit her lip and nodded.

Indeed, going hunting with Xu Ye is more than just hunting.

Thinking that I will be divorcing him soon, I really should cherish him and go hunting and practice shooting with him more often.

"Let me take care of the black muntjac. We'll roast its meat tonight." As he said that, Xu Ye took out his hunting knife.

Deer blood is also a good thing, Xu Ye plans to pack it up.

You can cook and eat it in the evening.

Jiang Ruoan and Jiang Ruyue stopped chatting and joined in to help, learning how to peel the skin at the same time.

For animals like muntjac, their skins still need to be peeled and then sold, so that you can make two profits.

It was agreed with the team before that the skin would belong to the hunting team.

What about the distribution within the hunting team? Whoever kills the prey gets it.

Therefore, everyone will be happy to hunt prey whose fur is valuable in the future.

For the members, it is great to have meat to eat and money to share.

A pound of meat can be sold for 40 to 50 cents, and 1,000 pounds is 400 to 500 yuan.

As long as the hunting team is strong enough, it can still make a lot of money for the team.

So they naturally agreed to the distribution of the furs.

Under Xu Ye's guidance, Jiang Ruoan and Jiang Ruyue took turns to peel off the skin of the black muntjac directly.

After peeling, Xu Ye taught them how to use wood ash for tanning.

After processing, they started to grill the deer meat.

"I don't know if they have arrived yet?" Jiang Ruoan asked, looking at the flames.

She was very curious about how the villagers felt when they saw so many wild boars.
