Although Ling Ye had expected that he would be able to knock down a hunting dog with a single kick, he was still excited by his current strength.
He had succeeded.
No problem.
It was effortless.
With his current physique and kicking skills, ordinary animals were really not his match, even if he was not an adult yet.
Looking at the dog whining in pain on the ground, Ling Ye's eyes flickered. He did not run away immediately, but quickly went over and kicked the dog's head again, directly breaking its skull and killing it on the spot.
Then, under the surprised gaze of the human soldier not far away, he bit the hound's neck and lifted it up.
In terms of size, Ling Ye was about the same size as this hunting dog, but it was not difficult for him to bite it and lift it. Ling Ye just held his prey in his mouth and flew away into the distance. His speed was not slow at all.
Half a minute later, the human soldier who had witnessed everything finally came back to his senses and shouted at his companion.
A few minutes later, the other seven soldiers came over.
Some of them had caught a female deer or a fawn, while some were regretfully empty-handed, but at least none of them were injured.
The seven of them looked at their companion's broken leg in surprise and confusion.
What kind of situation was this? How could he be injured after catching some female deer and fawns?
After hearing the other party's explanation, the seven of them immediately felt that it was ridiculous.
" A deer broke your knee and kicked the Northern Dog to death. It took it away. Lou An, you must be drunk and still not awake."
" I'm not lying. It's true. That deer is extraordinary. Its speed and strength are not like a deer at all. It ran in that direction," the human soldier cursed angrily. At the same time, there was a trace of fear in his eyes. It was obvious that Ling Ye's actions had frightened him.
That speed coupled with that kind of power, if it was not aimed at his knees, but at his head, he might have been in danger.
The seven of them were skeptical, but they still planned to give chase. They had hunting dogs that could track down prey based on their sense of smell. However, the seven of them were not very lucky. Not long after they started moving, it rained.
The rain would drown out the smell. It was also very dangerous in the mountains on rainy days. It was not easy to walk, and if they were unlucky, they might encounter some large carnivores. Something might happen to them.
The eight of them had no choice but to return.
About ten kilometers away from the mountain range, there was a city. There was a crooked ancient word written at the gate of the city. It was called "Xing" in this era.
This was Xing Country's territory.
The general in the city looked at the eight soldiers in front of him with anger on his face.
" Eight people, but only three deer were brought back. Two females and one young, not a single male. We even lost a northern dog. Don't you know that we spent a lot of money to buy those northern dogs from the Zhongshan Kingdom? Their lives are more precious than yours. You're a disgrace to the soldiers of the Xing Kingdom."
"Men, drag them away and give them fifty strokes!"
The general of the Xing Kingdom turned around and left angrily, ignoring the pleas and excuses of the eight men, let alone the words of the soldier with a broken knee.
A deer broke his knee with a kick and killed a Northern dog.
Not only did he not believe such ridiculous words, but he also felt embarrassed when he heard them.
A deer was nothing. If it was a tiger, he would believe it, let alone a deer.
Not long after the general left, a man dressed evilly and wearing all kinds of messy clothes stopped in front of him.
This was the High Priest of the Xing Country. He had a high position and authority, and his status in the Xing Country could be said to be below that of a single person.
"General Tu, the hunting ability of your soldiers doesn't seem to be very good. They can't even catch a few deer. The war between our Xing Kingdom and the Li Kingdom is imminent, and there are also threats from the surrounding vassal kingdoms. The earlier we pray, the better. Only then will we be able to obtain the protection of the gods and gain an advantage in the upcoming war. General, you should know that, right?"
Tu Nao looked at the High Priest in front of him unhappily and snorted,"" There's no need for the high priest to worry. I naturally know about this matter. Ten tigers, ten wolves, ten foxes, ten bears, ten snakes. Our soldiers have already done this and are about to finish hunting them all. However, I still want to ask, why are there ten for all other animals, but a hundred deer?"
"General, are you looking down on the deer?"
Tu Nao looked at the priest expressionlessly, his eyes expressing his intentions clearly.
Yes, he looked down on animals like deer.
Compared to deer, he felt that tigers, leopards, and bears were more attractive.
Of course, if the number of deer could be reduced to ten, he would have no objections.
The priestess said," Although deer's combat strength is far inferior to tigers and bears, everything in the world has its own set of changes. Every part of a deer's body is a treasure, especially a stag. After adulthood, the antlers on its head will fall off every year. The antlers that have not hardened are extremely valuable for medicine and have the effect of prolonging life."
"Longevity? Priest, is what you said true?!”Tu Nao said in surprise. In this era, extending one's lifespan was undoubtedly extremely tempting. Some things that had the effect of extending one's lifespan would even be crowned with the weight of legends.
Tu Nao didn't expect that the deer, which he had looked down on in the past, actually had such a precious ability.
The priest looked at Tu Nao in disdain and cursed in his heart,'A barbarian who only knows how to fight,' but he still explained patiently on the surface.
"Not only that, after its horn has hardened, it can also be used as a natural weapon. In addition, deer blood, deer meat, deer penis, deer skin, deer bones, and deer brain are all very valuable. I asked you to catch 100 deer not only for war sacrifices, but also for the sake of the Duke. The Duke is getting old, and the antler and deer blood are useful to him. General, you must pay attention to their importance."
Tu Nao nodded solemnly.
A deer was actually so precious, and its entire body was a treasure. This was something he had never expected.
"Looks like I have to order more people to go into the mountains to catch deer."
