#10Chapter 10: Hitting the target with a hundred steps
Shen Qing looked down at his waist, which was empty of arrows. His heart skipped a beat and his face suddenly changed.
He had just killed Chen An and now he had become a deadly enemy with Chen Tai.
The two of them had reached the point of a life-and-death struggle.
Now that he had no arrows, he had lost his most advantageous means when facing Chen Tai.
Whoosh!
An arrow shot from the opposite side interrupted his thoughts.
Shen Qing cursed inwardly and dodged to the side.
After a while, seeing that Shen Qing had not shot a single arrow, Chen Tai, who was hiding in the forest, immediately noticed Shen Qing's predicament and realized that Shen Qing's arrows were empty.
The best time to counterattack had come.
A trace of cunning and cruelty flashed in his eyes: "Shen Qing, you are dead."
Chen Tai came out from behind the tree, grabbed Chen An's quiver in his hand, then held the bow tightly, quickly pulled the string, and aimed at Shen Qing.
The trembling of the arrow made him feel unprecedented excitement.
With a whoosh.
The arrow shot out and headed straight for Shen Qing.
Shen Qing hurriedly hid behind the tree.
Bang!
With a muffled sound, the arrowhead sank into the old tree, stirring up a circle of snowflakes.
Shen Qing took a deep breath, forced himself to calm down, and quickly thought about the response strategy, trying to find a glimmer of hope.
He knew that any panic at this time might put him in an irretrievable situation.
Shen Qing stuck his head out and glanced at it, and found that Chen Tai was going around his side, locking most of his body at the same time.
Once Chen Tai went around to the side, or he turned sideways in advance because of fear, he would expose himself to Chen Tai's vision.
This is the hunting method commonly used by these hunters.
If he stayed there, he would only be killed.
Shen Qing gritted his teeth, rushed out of the old tree, and ran wildly in a random direction.
Thanks to the breakthrough in hunting skills, he was also clear about Chen Tai's methods, so he would not be completely passive.
Two figures chased each other in the forest.
In the vast snowy mountains, winter birds kept flying in fright, making the snowy forest more and more lively.
Swish, swish, swish!
Chen Tai's arrows kept coming.
Puff!
An arrow passed by Shen Qing and scratched his quiver.
The roe deer blood in it splashed out and scattered all over the ground.
Chen Tai, who was chasing after him, saw this scene and thought Shen Qing was injured. He couldn't help but look happy and quickened his pace.
Unknowingly, Shen Qing was driven to the familiar sunny slope.
There were few trees here, and there were not many shelters.
Shen Qing wanted to turn around and run to another dense forest.
But what he thought of, Chen Tai naturally thought of.
After finally forcing him to this extent, Chen Tai would never let Shen Qing get what he wanted. He shot several arrows in a row, blocking Shen Qing's retreat and driving him to the sunny slope.
Shen Qing's face was not very good.
In desperation, he jumped down the sunny slope.
Standing outside the woods, Chen Tai stopped, sneered, and pointed his arrow at Shen Qing.
Without too many trees blocking the view, the view was excellent.
Chen Tai narrowed his eyes, held the bow tightly, pulled the bowstring steadily and forcefully, and put the arrow on the string.
Suddenly, his fingers loosened, and the bowstring instantly rebounded, making a "clang" sound.
The arrow cut through the air like a meteor and shot straight at Shen Qing, with a speed that was jaw-dropping.
At this moment, Shen Qing's scalp suddenly went numb.
As an "old hunter", his intuition made him react almost subconsciously, and he jumped to his side and rolled.
He barely avoided Chen Tai's fatal arrow.
Chen Tai showed a look of surprise, spit in the snow, and secretly said that Shen Qing was lucky.
Seeing Shen Qing fall to the ground, he calmly drew out another arrow and put it on the bowstring.
Among the three brothers, he is the best archer.
When Shen Qing was running, the angle was tricky, and it was difficult for him to display his skills.
Now there is no forest to block him. He is standing on a high place with a good view. Facing the dead target that has fallen to the ground, he can't miss again.
This arrow will take his life and avenge his third brother!
Shen Qing, who was lying on the snow, turned pale. He had realized that he was in a desperate situation.
What to do?
Beads of sweat oozed out of his forehead, and his back was cold.
At this moment, he reached into the snow and touched a hard object.
Shen Qing pulled it out and saw that it was the arrow that Chen Tai had just shot!
He was immediately ecstatic.
There was no time to hesitate. He suddenly turned over and pulled the longbow.
When he saw Chen Tai standing still, he loosened his fingers without any hesitation and concentrated all his strength and hope on this arrow.
The arrow was like a bullet out of a gun, accompanied by a whistling sound, and went straight to Chen Tai.
The distance of one hundred steps passed in a flash, and the arrow was one step ahead of Chen Tai, piercing his throat accurately.
Blood splattered, Chen Tai's body tilted, and he fell heavily to the ground.
Chen Tai touched his neck in disbelief.
His fingers touched a wet and slippery area, and blood flowed out from his neck.
Chen Tai stared at the blood on his hands, realizing that his life was slipping away quickly. Fear and despair intertwined on his face, and his eyes were full of astonishment: "How is it possible..."
After shooting the arrow, Shen Qing saw Chen Tai fall down, and his mind was relieved immediately, and he breathed a sigh of relief, as if his body had lost all strength.
Without delay, Shen Qing hurriedly sat up on the snow and walked to Chen Tai's side.
Chen Tai had turned into a corpse at this time, his eyes wide open, an arrow stuck in his neck, piercing out from the other side.
There was a blood groove on the arrow, and the bright red blood flowed out from the blood groove and flowed on the white snow.
The blood was warm, melting the surrounding snow, forming a winding river that extended seven steps away.
The bright red and pure white formed a sharp contrast with each other.
Shen Qing raised his hands and looked at his hands.
"So... killing people feels like this..."
At the beginning, the situation was urgent and he didn't have time to think too much.
Now that he had killed the two people, he realized that this was his first time killing people.
For some reason, Shen Qing didn't feel much psychological discomfort.
In his opinion, this is the way of the world.
The tragic situation of Tianchuan yesterday was vivid.
If he hadn't been a little more ruthless and lucky, he would be lying here now.
"I don't want to die. Whoever wants to kill me, I will kill him!"
"Hunting can be hunting animals or hunting people."
Shen Qing's eyes suddenly became firm. He no longer had any psychological burden and had adapted to the current situation.
Shen Qing looked down at Chen Tai's body with a hint of smile in his eyes.
After killing the two people, the most important thing now is to touch the body!
The Chen family has a lot of good things, which should not be wasted.
Shen Qing made up his mind, squatted down, and moved quickly.
In order to save trouble, he took out a dagger from his waist and opened Chen Tai's belt.
He took out a purse and some hunting tools from his body.
Then he stripped Chen Tai clean in the heavy snow, and packed up his clothes and bows and arrows and took them away.
After cleaning, Chen Tai was left naked.
Shen Qing couldn't help but smile a little, turned around and left quickly.
There was also Chen An's body in another place in the forest. He was afraid that there were many good things on him, which he couldn't miss.
