Chapter 1: Lei Yin (Part 1)

  Watching the buffalo herd walk slowly, they continue to eat leaves and weeds along the way. The buffalo has many natural enemies, but for a group of buffalo, few wild animals dare to attack them. To kill a buffalo, it's best to wait until it is alone or old and sick, unable to keep up with the pace of the herd. This kind of buffalo is the target of hunting, whether it's human hunters or large carnivorous beasts, they all understand this simple truth.

  "Are you using a bow and arrow?"

  Lei Xingfeng nodded and said, "Mm, I'll try it with my bow and arrow." He was full of confidence in the black bow, and he firmly believed that this black bow was absolutely not something an ordinary person could draw back, its attacking power should surprise himself.

  Koran and Keshi both smiled, knowing that the barbarian bull was a formidable opponent. They had successfully hunted it before, but never alone. It wasn't that they were narrow-minded, but rather, as hunters who had never left their mountainous home, they couldn't imagine that there existed another kind of person in this world - one who controlled the power of wheels. Their world was just too small.

  The wild oxen took a good half hour to reach the big tree, from the platform of the tree house, looking down, you can see the back of the wild oxen appearing and disappearing in the woods. Ke Da Shan and his two companions smiled at Lei Xing Feng, Ke Nan Shan whispered: "Can shoot now... hehe."

  All three of them smiled, and Lei Xingfeng nodded. He held the black bow and inserted Grandfather's specially made arrows into the wooden board on the platform one by one. He straddled his legs, with one foot on the platform and the other on a tree branch as thick as a water bucket. Below was the herd of cattle. Lei Xingfeng grinned at the three of them, then drew an arrow and shot it downwards with force.

  The black bow was quietly drawn open, and Ke Nan Shan was also an archer. He looked at the black bow in surprise and whispered, "Good bow!" Generally speaking, if a bow is hard, it will make a creaking sound when drawn. But Lei Xing Feng's bow made no sound at all. He didn't believe that Lei Xing Feng would bring a soft bow with him, because soft bows could only be used to shoot small birds and rabbits. Lei Xing Feng wasn't an idiot, if he were to use a soft bow to hunt fierce beasts like the wild oxen, it would be too foolish.

  In an instant, Lei Xingfeng had already captured the central depression of the Wild Ox's high back, which was a weak point of the Wild Ox. His eyesight was always the best, and it was well-known in Hu Yanbao that he could see things from extremely far away, this was his innate talent.

  With rapt attention, suddenly, a metallic crisp sound, Clang!

  The three people didn't even see the arrow fly out, and there was no afterimage of the arrow left in their eyes. It can be imagined how great the power of this shot is.

  Moo!

  An arrow over a meter long, more than half of it had entered the back of the wild cow, leaving only the tail exposed. The wild cow let out a single cry and then knelt down, instantly entering a state of near-death. This one arrow did not even startle the rest of the herd.

  Ke Dashi, Ke Nanshan, and Ke Shisan looked at each other clearly. Ke Nanshan rubbed his eyes hard, and after a while, he covered his chest and said: "You... you... how is this possible?"

  Lei Xingfeng didn't say a word, drew out another arrow, pulled the bow and shot it. Ping! Another crisp sound.

  Moo!

  Another head of fierce cattle knelt down.

  Ke Dashi's eyeballs were about to pop out of their sockets, when did the tough skin become so fragile? Ke Nan Shan and Ke Shi couldn't even speak, looking at the two kneeling barbarian bulls below, then looking at Lei Xingfeng, his eyes were full of shock.

  Lei Xingfeng pulled out the third arrow, and Ke Dashi hurriedly stopped him: "A Feng, stop! Don't shoot anymore... Two heads are enough, if there's more... we can't even transport them back!"

  In fact, it's impossible for four people to carry a few tons of wild cattle back.

  Lei Xingfeng finally reacted and sighed, "What a pity." As he spoke, the herd of cattle had already passed by, and those two fierce bulls were now exhaling more than inhaling.

  Kuo Taishan waited for a moment and said, "Let's go down!" His tone was already filled with excitement. The two fierce bulls were worth a lot of money just for their horns and hides, not to mention the large amount of meat they would provide.

  The four of them climbed down the tree in high spirits, knowing they had to act quickly. Luckily, the arrow killed the bison instantly, with very little bloodshed, and therefore less of a bloody smell. If there was a lot of blood, the smell would be strong, and it wouldn't take long for fierce beasts to be attracted to it, so the four of them hastened their actions.

  When the four of them arrived at the side of the wild ox, two of the wild oxen had already died. Conan jumped onto the back of a wild ox and only then could he clearly see the arrow feathers that were exposed outside. The entire arrow was almost four-fifths submerged. He exclaimed in shock: "What kind of strength would it take to shoot an arrow so deep?! How terrifying!"

  "Quickly, quickly tie up the wild cow, we'll hang it on the tree house and deal with it later!"

  As the faint smell of blood wafted away, this place had become increasingly dangerous.

  Lei Xingfeng first pulled out the arrow shafts from the back of the wild cow, this specially made arrow shaft, he couldn't bear to waste it, after slightly adjusting it, it could be reused. Then he grabbed the hind legs of the wild cow and tried his hand, saying: "Uncle Ke, you guys tie up that wild cow first, this one... I'll try."

  "What are you trying?"

  Lei Xingfeng didn't respond, stretched out his hand to grab the back leg of the fierce cow, this time he used a bit of strength, let out a low shout: "Hey!" and actually dragged the fierce cow backwards, step by step towards the giant tree.

  "Good heavens!" exclaimed Ke Da Shan.

  Conan covered his chest and said: "This kid... how can he have such great strength..."

  Ke Shi shook his head and said, "Monster!"

  The next scene left the three of them speechless, as Lei Xingfeng actually dragged a fierce cow up the tree. The thing weighed several tons, and the appearance of this inhuman strength stunned the three even more. At this time, Lei Xingfeng still had the leisure to speak, saying: "Uncle Ke, you guys need to hurry up!"

  He took out the prepared bowstring, tied one end to the back leg of the fierce cow and the other end to his wrist, and only then did Lei Xingfeng force himself to climb up the tree.

  With the power of the wheel driving him, Lei Xingfeng felt his body filled with strength. He grasped the protruding tree knots on the ancient tree and his fingers actually inserted directly into the trunk. Pulling the bull, he climbed up bit by bit.

  Ke Dashi shook his head vigorously, he thought A Feng was too crazy, actually pulling such a heavy barbaric cow up the tree, this kind of inhuman strength was too frightening.

  "Alright, stop staring, this kid isn't human... Let's move quickly."

  "Quick!" Ke Shi said. He started to tie up the wild cow, while Ke Da Shan climbed up a tree. His speed was very fast, and he quickly surpassed Lei Xing Feng, arriving at a huge branch. Then he threw down a rope, using the sturdy branch to hoist the wild cow up.

  Lei Xingfeng dragged the fierce cow up the tree, but he was still struggling, after all, the weight of the fierce cow was not light. Relying on his strength, he forcibly pulled the fierce cow onto the platform of the tree house. Then, he helped Ke Dashi and others pull another fierce cow up. They didn't dare to put this fierce cow on the platform of the tree house, as its weight was too heavy, fearing that it would break the branches under the tree house. So they placed the fierce cow on a branch at the side.

  The four of them were sweating profusely, lying in the treehouse to rest, looking very unglamorous. After climbing up, they felt more at ease, even if some wild beasts could climb trees, they didn't have to be afraid, here was different from the peaceful land, wild beasts were not their opponents.

  After resting for ten minutes, Ke Da Shan said: "Nan Shan is on guard. We'll take action. The wild ox was hunted down by A Feng alone. He took the hide and horns, and we three will divide the meat."

  Lei Xingfeng said, "No need to divide it like that, let's just split it evenly. If Uncle Ke hadn't brought me out, I wouldn't have been able to hunt the wild cow either." The hunting team at Hu Yanbao generally didn't want to bring new people along, as it meant their own gains would be reduced. So for Ke Daxian to bring him along was already quite difficult.

  "Alright, you take one whole buffalo hide and horn, we'll split the rest. Don't decline anymore, we've already gotten a great deal."

  Keran Shan and Ker Shi nodded in agreement, except for Nan Shan's vigilance. The three of them began to skin and cut the meat, taking out a large wooden basin from the tree house. Ke Da Shan used a sharp small knife to start skinning, and the bloody smell instantly spread.

  A whole piece of barbarian cowhide, hung on a tree branch, at least to be dried for two days, and also need to apply a kind of tree sap to eliminate the strong bloody smell. Two long barbarian cow horns, cut from the head of the cow, placed aside.

  "Be careful, a big leopard is coming!" Conan shouted suddenly.

  Lei Xingfeng looked down and saw a tree not far away, on which a black leopard was staring at them. He was surprised to find that this leopard was different from the previous life, with a more robust body and a larger size, about four meters long, a big guy. He knew that leopards were tree-climbing experts, he stopped his hand and reached out to grab the black bow.

  "Hey, don't worry, Ah Feng. Throw the bull's entrails down there... it'll have food and won't come up."

  Lei Xingfeng nodded, and immediately poured out the internal organs of the wild cattle. With a series of loud noises, large pieces of internal organs fell to the ground. In just a few breaths, several roars were heard, and Lei Xingfeng discovered that there were not only leopards below, but also other carnivores. The sound of frantic fighting and scrambling continued unabated, and the black leopard on the tree had disappeared.

  Dealt with the two wild cows, a pile of fresh meat was made. The three people started salting and curing it, then hung it piece by piece in the tree house to dry in the wind. As for the bones, they were all thrown under the trees, where animals would drag them away and eat them.

  They worked until nightfall, and the four of them stopped only when it was dark. Then Ke Da Shan and the others began to set traps in the trees. At night was the peak period for various wild beasts' activities, and these dried barbarian cow meats were the best targets, so they had to make good preparations.

  Lei Xingfeng did not stay in the tree house, but climbed to the top of the tree. He had to seize the time to cultivate, and of course, this also had to be kept from Ke Daxiong and others.

  Lei Xingfeng found a very wide and large branch, leaned against the trunk of the tree, and began to cultivate.

  ……

  The next morning, the four of them got up. This night had countless wild beasts roaming under the trees, making all sorts of strange noises. Leixingfeng didn't sleep well at all except for cultivating, luckily he had Lunli's nourishment to support his body, and on the second day he was still spirited and refreshed.

  "How's it going? First time sleeping outdoors, isn't it uncomfortable?"
