Chapter 4

2014-08-16

In the woods, Tang En proudly tied the pheasants with rattan. Then go back and forth to retrieve the hunting trap, a short wooden stick tied with slender vines and a cover made of various branches.

Yes, that trap was set by Tang En, of course, under the direction of Old Butler.

The shooting accuracy problem of the crossbow cannot be solved in a short time, even more how is such a broken crossbow. So after simply teaching Tang En some Concealment tricks, Old Butler gave such a foolproof hunting trap. The result is very gratifying, Tang En finally solved the serious problem of starving when he arrived in Other World.

The prey is caught, and the question that follows is how to turn it into edible food. The suggestion given by Old Butler is to make beggar chicken, the method is simple and the taste is not bad. The most important thing is that you don't have to shed the chicken feathers.

But after successfully building a fire and scooping water from the village with big leaves, Tang En was a little hesitant about the pheasants who seemed to be resigned to their fate. is the truth.

Although Tang En's family background is average, but his parents still love him very much, and they didn't let him touch it. In addition, he has just graduated and has not experienced life experience, so he really hasn't done anything like chickens and ducks.

However, the hunger in his stomach is very real. It's a pity that he just ate a rye bread one day after he arrived in the Other World.

Tang En sighed: "That's why people are forced out. Brother chicken, if you fall into my hands today, you should die sooner rather than later..."

Rubbing his palms twice, Tang En pressed the chicken's body, tightened the handle of the axe, and lifted the axe.

"Goo!" Blood splattered, and the pheasant let out a final whimper.

Tang En felt his hands were hot, but when he looked down, his hands were covered with chicken blood, and he couldn't help feeling loose. Unexpectedly, the chicken body without the head of the red-crowned chicken fluttered and flew away.

"Damn..."

Tang En was completely dumbfounded, this Fuck is unscientific!

I've heard that boiled ducks fly, but I've never seen a pheasant without a head that can still run...

Fortunately, this pheasant runs for dozens of meters, staged After this last madness, he fell to the ground completely motionless.

After this absurd scene, everything went smoothly. After a period of baking, Tang En successfully ate the legendary beggar chicken. The nutrition of the pheasant is still very high, the butter is dripping and the meat is excellent, but without any auxiliary materials, the taste of this thing is average. However, Tang En is really hungry, and since he made it himself, he eats with keen interest pleasure, which is quite a sense of accomplishment.

For the next few days, Tang En temporarily lived in this forest.

He hasn't decided how to plan his exotic life. Assassin Tang En doesn't want to do it. Danger is one thing, and the key is that he can't get through it. After all, a serious college student, although he is second-rate, can't do it if he wants to take other people's lives at will for money or something.

But although he doesn't want to do Assassin, he often goes to the system space. Old Butler gave him things, and he practiced a lot. First, he had nothing to do, and second, he didn't have too many skills.

Old Butler didn't try to force him, just took out an Assassin game and let him go in and complete the Assassin Quest. Although Tang En rejects being an Assassin, as a gaming enthusiast, he will not object to this kind of virtual game.

But the difficulty factor of this game is too high, Tang En has been playing for a few days, but he just didn't pass a level. This made him, who has always claimed to be a game expert, unable to hang his face, and devoted himself to delving into it.

The first test of the game is to steal a nobleman's sword. This goal may not seem difficult, but every time Tang En stick one's head around to look for near the noble's house, he is discovered by the wolf dog watching the hospital. Under the barking, the guard will kill him in an instant. Make him depressed. Fortunately, this is a virtual game, there is no keyboard and mouse, otherwise I don't know how many of them were shot by him.

Noon, meal time.

"Damn, it's this rotten dog again, don't let me take a chance, or I'll chop you up ten times in a row!" The foul-mouthed Tang En carried the hunting trap and searched around set location .

This time, he finally knocked out a guard with sneak attack, climbed the backyard wall and entered the noble mansion, but before he had time to get excited, there was a barking of dogs, and Tang En was heard again. A team of guards came and killed it magnificently. Fuck , you said you look at the watchdog and walk into the backyard for what?

Hey, this rabbit is quite fat, but unfortunately I can't catch it...Tang En watched the fat hare drooling dozens of meters away.

Tang En subconsciously observed the environment all around, in the downwind, dense forests and knee-high shrubs, it is a favorable terrain for Concealment... Er, what are you thinking, you think you are Old Butler what. Tang En secretly despised himself.

However, Tang En couldn't help but think about it as soon as he thought about it, let's try it out, there's nothing to lose anyway.

Tang En licked his lips and walked slowly to the side of the hare.

Concentrate, meditate, breathe, observe.

The frequency of the rabbit's grazing, the time to turn its head, the distance between the trees in front of it, the distance from the next tree, whether there are dead branches under its feet...

Slowly, slowly.

At this moment, the eyes of Tang En, who was walking slowly, gradually became silent, and all that emerged in his mind were the Concealment skills taught by Old Butler.

The hare walks like a ghost for more than ten meters, but the hare does not respond.

In the space, Old Butler looked at the light curtain calmly. The corners of his mouth twitched: "It's pretty good, but is it so easy to get close?"

Tang En has already walked halfway through the distance of dozens of meters.

At this time, the ears of the hare who was grazing with his head down suddenly moved, and he raised his head alertly and looked at the lower side ahead.

It's just an ordinary bush, the breeze blowing the leaves slightly, hua hua making noise.

The hare nose twitched, withdrew his gaze, and continued to lower his head and nibble on the grass.

Tang En behind the tree, slightly frowned, just took a tentative step just now, and was quickly noticed by the rabbit. Can't get close? It doesn't make sense, how did Old Butler get there, I can't figure it out...

Calm down, calm down, there must be a way.

At such a long distance, the hare is grazing with its head down, and I'm on the downwind, so the problem should be the sound. Just because I can't hear myself walking doesn't mean the hare can't.

How to make the hare hear the sound without raising its head? Fuck , the more I think about it, the more mysterious it becomes, Tang En silently raised his head and took a deep breath, this rabbit is not an idiot...

At this moment, an aura suddenly flashed across his mind. Tang En looked up at the hua hua leaves, looked thoughtful and opened his mouth: sound? sound!

Tang En eyebrows raised , for a moment, walking out of the back of the tree. A dozen meters away, the herbivorous hare did not respond.

It worked, as expected. Tang En suppressed the ecstasy in his heart and moved forward slowly.

In the space, Old Butler is slightly nodded, this kid, Concealment has some talent.

Tang En is just a Rookie Assassin who is learning Concealment, or, even Rookie can't be called, his footsteps are inevitable. The hare's long ears are not for nothing, and it can be alert to any abnormal noise around it.

But this time, the hare's problem is precisely "no exceptions". For the hare, the occasional sound of the forest breeze blowing through the leaves is not unusual, and Tang En approached it with the help of the sound of hua hua leaves.

But is it really that smooth? We know that the breeze in the woods is slow and slow. There may be experienced people who know the strength of the wind, but this person is definitely not the current Tang En.

As Tang En approached the hare three meters away, the sound of hua hua's leaves stopped temporarily.

The hare raised his head suddenly, and at such a close distance, Tang En could even see the sawgrass leaves above the two big teeth of the three-lobed mouth.

As soon as the wind stopped, Tang En knew that it was not good, so he raised his hood and threw himself on it.

Tang En's reaction was not unpleasant, but the hare kicked his calf with force, the dust rose, and Rapid Speed passed under the hood.

Rely on, fall short! The empty Tang En fell and grinned.

"Bang..."

Before Tang En began to regret, there was a loud crash beside him.

Tang En looked towards the side in amazement, and was immediately stunned.

He had read a sentence before, saying "Life is like a piece of chocolate, you never know what the next one will taste like", when Tang En didn't feel much.

Now, looking at the hare over there who ran into the tree trunk because of panic, Tang En suddenly felt that this sentence was too fucking reasonable.

"Haha, the legendary stagnant hare, the ancients do not deceive me!" Tang En mentioned this unfortunate hare in a particularly bright mood.

Tang En's cooking technique is average and limited to pheasant, he doesn't want to do "beggar rabbit". Fortunately, these days, he is very familiar with the old farmers of the farm, and if there is any game, he will directly mention it.

The old farmer's wife left early, and he didn't want to go to the city with his sons, so he lived in a rural mill. Although food and clothing are worry-free, it is inevitable to be lonely. When he saw Tang En carrying a fat hare, his eyes lit up, and he hurried over.

As he weighed it with his hands, the old farmer immediately smiled and said, "This beast has a mouthful of teeth. It shouldn't weigh five pounds. Don, thanks to you today, I'll be able to relieve my cravings."

Tang En said with a smile: "It's not really my credit, today's good luck, I saw this guy hit a tree by himself when I went out, haha!"

"haha, Don, you are really joking. Okay, I'll deal with this beast first, you go to the cellar to help me get a can of green wine, and today we're going to celebrate." Qing wine is a kind of azure commonly collected by old farmers here The fruit is brewed, slightly alcoholic, with a slightly sour taste.

"Okay."

…………

The old farmer handled the game quickly. It's only one hour, so I brought two pots of rabbit meat, and simmered them in a clear fire. The styles are different, and the smell makes people appetite.

Tang En took two earthenware cups and poured the green wine.

The old farmer wiped his hands and said, "I'll get these two flavors today, I'll marinate the rest of the rabbit meat first, and I'll get you a smoked rabbit meat tomorrow, that flavor, tsk tsk..."

"Haha, it's good to dare." Tang En was overjoyed.

The vegetables and wine are already on the table, but Tang En is not in a hurry to start, because after spending a few days together, he knows that the old farmer is a devout believer, and he must pray before every meal.

"Thanks to the loving Light God for giving us food..."

The old farmer believes in the male sculpture on the roof of the church in the village, Light God. He donates everything to the chapel every month except for the rent he uses and needs to hand in.

The past few days, under Tang En's scolding, he finally learned from the old farmer that this place is called Caesar Continent, which is an era ruled by kingship and theocracy, and the kingship system is similar to Tang En's The monarchs seen in the history books**.

Tang En's current location is in the Titus Kingdom of Caesar Continent one of the Two Great Empires. As for the other empire, well, it's more of a tribe than an empire, the North Desolate Tribe.

There is no room for two tigers. That's for sure, and the war between the Titus Kingdom and the North Desolate Tribe continues. But for the old farmer, these things are too far away. Little Stone Village is located in the southern part of the empire, and he has never seen the "barbarians" of the fierce in the northern wasteland in his life.

What interested Tang En most was that he heard Battle Qi and the existence of magic from the mouth of the old farmer. However, when Tang En wanted to understand in detail, he regretted that the old farmer knew very little about these two things.

As for magic, the old farmer only knew that Magician was noble, and the only magic he had ever seen in his life was Father York's Healing Technique. That's right, it's the kind of warm light that Tang En mistook for a portable Yuba. As for Battle Qi, the old farmer just heard that the top officer here, a Knight Master, has this thing.

After the old farmer finished his prayers, Tang En could not wait to start tasting the rabbit meat feast.

The old farmer ate a few pieces of rabbit meat and a few cups of green wine, and then he started habitually chatting. The content is roughly the same as what Tang En heard a few times before, but with a slightly different degree of exaggeration.

The granddaughter of the old John's family in the east of the village has a good life. She joined the Light God Church under the guidance of Father York, and was sent to a distant monastery for further study a few days ago...

Again Or maybe he saw a Magician fly through the air when he was a kid, wiping out evil beasts with a wave or something.

The latter is probably what some wandering bard rapped him, Tang En smiled with his glass, and life in the Other World was interesting.

Drink it all in one gulp. "Dad, Mom, I'm fine here, you don't have to worry..."
