Li Tai looked anxious: "Fourth brother is older than you, and has more experience in some things than you."
"You see you have been in the paddock for so long, but you have gained nothing. With this progress, you definitely have no chance to win the championship."
"Instead of making the third brother cheaper, why not cooperate with us, and join forces, maybe we can win the third brother."
"Who said I didn't get anything?" Li Xiao was extremely speechless, "It's just because there are too many preys, which affect the speed of the horses, so my men immediately chased them over."
Li Tai naturally didn't believe it, and said, "They're all my brothers, brother Xiao, why are you still talking hard to fourth brother?"
"The time is less than an hour. It's normal not to catch the prey. It's not shameful."
"Da~da~da~"
At the same time as the words fell, there was a sound of hooves behind Li Xiao.
It was Lu Li and a group of guards who caught up.
When the guards approached, the countless prey hanging on the horse's back made everyone including Li Tai's eyes widen.
Li Tai exclaimed even more: "What?!"
Chapter 211: Isn't it cheating?
One after another, war horses with prey hanging on them came galloping.
"Whispering—"
Seeing Li Xiao stopped on the road, Lu Li reached out his hand to stop the guards behind him.
"Your Highness, there are too many prey, and the horses are a bit strenuous. If this continues, it will take a lot of time. Do you want to throw some away?"
Lu Li looked at Li Tai in front of him, and said to Li Xiao.
"Then take some away, just give it to my fourth brother." Li Xiao thought for a while and said.
Li Tai: "???"
At this moment his heart is broken.
He was stiff all over, turned his head with difficulty, looked at the pitiful prey behind him, and felt ashamed.
And when he thought of what he said to Li Xiao just now, he was even more ashamed.
At the same time, apart from the deep shock in his eyes, there was also endless confusion.
Where did Li Xiao get so many prey?
Is this the lair of the beast?
Not just him.
The children of the aristocratic families behind him were also dumbfounded, with expressions of disbelief.
"My God, what's the situation? We add up to dozens of people, and the prey is less than a hundred catties. How did King Yue do it?"
"Yeah, what's frightening is how long it's been, probably less than an hour. We haven't seen so many prey since we entered the paddock."
"No wonder the king of Yue hurried back to the camp. The eleven horses were carrying so much prey, so it was difficult for them to move forward."
"It's ridiculous that I just laughed at the King of Yue, it's a shame!"
"How can this compare? If things go on like this, the king of Yue will be the king of the paddock shooting this time!"
……
After a brief silence, bursts of amazement immediately erupted on the field.
At this time, Li Xiao ordered people to take down the prey that weighed almost two hundred catties, and put it on the open space in front of Li Tai.
Li Xiao smiled slightly at Li Tai, and said, "Fourth Brother, you also saw that I really can't bear it here, do you want it?"
"This..." Li Tai smiled wryly. "Brother Xiao, fourth brother apologizes to you for what he said before, it's all fourth brother's fault."
After a pause, Li Tai rolled his eyes, and then said: "Brother Xiao, can you tell me how you hunted these prey?"
In less than an hour, only ten people can harvest a thousand catties of prey!
Obviously abnormal.
Therefore, he concluded that Li Xiao must have some secret technique.
"How else can you hunt it? Don't you just shoot it with a bow?"
Li Xiao looked at Li Tai, as if looking at a fool.
Hearing this, Li Tai's eyes flashed with disappointment, and he said helplessly, "Forget it, brother Xiao must have found out this secret method with great difficulty, and you and I are competitors, so it's only natural that we don't tell fourth brother."
Then, Li Tai sent someone to accept the prey, and cupped his fists at Li Xiao: "Since it's Brother Xiao's wish, then fourth brother will accept it."
Li Xiao nodded: "The fourth brother will continue hunting, so I'll go back to the camp first."
"go!"
Li Xiao waved his hand, ready to leave.
"and many more!"
But Li Tai suddenly called Li Xiao to stop, and said thoughtfully in his eyes: "Brother Xiao, please say one more word, do you want to consider cooperation?"
"Look, Fourth Brother has a lot of people here, and Brother Xiao, if you don't win over the children of the aristocratic family, it is the time when there is a shortage of people. You and I can just complement each other and win the first place in one fell swoop!"
"When the time comes, I will give you the divine bow. I only need the title of number one. How about it?"
Li Xiao stopped and looked at Li Tai with a puzzled expression: "Since you know it's a false name, why do you value it so much?"
"So what if you get the first place?"
"So what if you are appreciated by your father?"
"The most important thing is your own strength."
After a pause, Li Xiao suddenly thought of something and said, "By the way, in this paddock, you'd better not get too close to me."
"That's it, let's do it for yourself."
After finishing speaking, Li Xiao led his people away on horseback.
Looking at Li Xiao's back, a trace of unwillingness and anger flashed in Li Tai's eyes.
What do you mean don't get too close to me?
From his point of view, Li Xiao clearly did not want the secrets of his hunting to be prying into him, and he was afraid that he would become a competitor after knowing the secret method.
He begged for cooperation in such a low voice, but he did not expect to be insulted by Li Xiao.
For a while, Li Tai couldn't calm down.
"let's go!"
With a sullen face, Li Tai led the team into the depths of the paddock.
……
Li Xiao led the people to the camp.
After dropping nearly two hundred catties of prey, the speed of the team also returned to normal.
Soon, the group arrived at the outskirts of the camp.
"It seems that someone is back? Who is so fast?"
"It's only been less than an hour. Could it be that the prey you caught can't be carried? It shouldn't be, isn't there a lot of people here?"
The camp guards also found Li Xiao.
But as Li Xiao approached with ten people and ten riders, all the guards in the camp were shocked when they saw the piles of prey on the horses.
"It's the King of Yue!"
"How is this possible? Where did so many prey come from in such a short period of time?"
"Isn't it cheating?"
"Hush! How can you say this casually? Forming cliques is the real test of paddock hunting. It is also his ability to ask people to help the king of Yue."
In their view, the reason why Li Xiao was able to hunt so many prey was definitely because of the help of a large group of people behind him.
Not long after, Li Xiao entered the camp.
The guards began to weigh the prey.
Soon, the result came out - 870 catties!
This number is actually not too much.
But the point is, it's only been less than an hour.
This is what shocked the guards.
After recording, Li Xiao learned that he was the first person to return to the camp.
"continue!"
Li Xiao led the people to set off again.
Unconsciously, he also began to enjoy this hunting process.
Even though he knew that secretly there might be a restless elder Sun Chong.
But he didn't take it to heart.
……
At the same time, in a dense jungle deep in the paddock.
The two figures stopped the horses.
"Uncle Yun, it's almost there. After driving for an hour, it's far enough to start hunting." Chang Sun Chong said to Yunhu who was beside him.
"Young master, don't worry, with this cold iron ox horn bow in hand, I will definitely help you win the first place!"
Yunhu nodded, and then took out a big ferocious bow from the package.
If Li Ke was present, he would definitely recognize that this bow is the final reward of this hunting competition - the cold iron horn bow!
"His Royal Highness took great pains to get this magic bow ahead of time. If you fail to win the first place, you should know the consequences!" Chang Sun Chong said solemnly.
"I understand." Yunhu said in a deep voice.
……
Before I knew it, another hour passed.
In the jungle, Li Xiao looked helplessly at the prey all over the ground behind him.
Finished calf.
On the spur of the moment, he didn't pay attention to his harvest.
So much so that there are too many prey to get rid of at one time.
"Your Highness, what should we do? If they are piled here for too long, more beasts may be attracted." Zhao Yuntian said with a frown.
"Find a cave and hide first!" Li Xiao said after thinking about it.
"Yes!"
Under Li Xiao's order, half of the guards stayed behind, and the other half went out to look for the cave.
Soon, the guard came to report.
The cave was found, and it wasn't too far away.
"Move all over there!"
Li Xiao took the people and began to carry them bit by bit.
After a while, he saw the cave.
But the guards who went in to investigate hurried out: "Your Highness, there is something going on inside!"
"what happened?"
Li Xiao frowned suddenly.
Then he followed the guards and walked in to have a look.
