    [Thanks to the book friend "Immortal Light Ming" for the reward!  I had a bad cough today and got an intravenous drip in the evening, so the update is late. I hope everyone can understand, thank you!  This recommendation will continue next week, strongly recommended by the History Channel category, and I hope everyone will continue to support it.  ¡¿

    Xia Houmao rubbed his nose with the back of his hand, wiped away the blood splashed on his face, and hummed happily.

    What was placed in front of him was a piece of deer skin that had just been peeled off, still dripping with blood.  When counting hunting results, only the antlers need to be turned in. As for the deer skin and venison, everyone is free to dispose of it.  Cao Ang has been busy taking care of Lingshan recently. Cao Ren is a lazy guy, so he left the job of pickling deer skins to Xia Houmao.

    This is the deerskin of an adult male deer. It was shot in the eye by Cao Ren with an arrow. There were no other injuries on the body and the fur was basically undamaged.  Such a piece of high-quality deerskin can be sold for a very high price as long as it is carefully cured and does not become moldy or lint-free.

    Xia Houmao carefully sprinkled salt on the venison while thinking with a smile: According to the previous regulations, Cao Ang and Cao Ren who participated in the hunt shared the hunting proceeds equally with him.  With this money, my mother will not have to work as hard this year as she did in the past. She will no longer have to sit at the spinning wheel to weave, let alone spend the New Year hungry in old clothes.

    The more Xia Houmao thought about it, the happier he became. Although his archery skills and martial arts were poor, his fear of money made this usually careless man become more careful.  He broke the salt grains into pieces and slowly sprinkled them on the venison.  At this moment, Cao Ang came to the river carrying the bucket.

    Xia Houmao said loudly: "Aang, come to fetch water again. Let's go upstream. Uncle (Zixiao) just disemboweled the deer here, and it smelled fishy!"

    Cao Ang nodded, chatted with Xia Houmao for a few words, and then walked upstream of the river carrying the bucket.

    The flow of this small river is very small, but the scenery along the bank is quite good. The winding river channel is lined with big trees, cutting off people's sight and giving people a sense of curiosity about the winding paths.

    Probably because there was sufficient water and lush grass on both sides of the river, Cao Ang walked about fifty or sixty feet upstream and was surprised to find a small pool here.

    Although the river water is a bit cold, the sun is high and the temperature is bearable.  Moreover, Cao Ang had been serving the injured Lingshan naked for the past two days, and he felt that his body had a strange smell, which was really unbearable for him.

    Looking around, he saw lush vegetation and no one around, so Cao Ang took off his clothes, stuffed them into a bucket, and hid them in a hidden place.  Then I did a few preparations and slowly walked into the pool.

    "Maybe it's because no one has ever come here. The fish in the pool didn't recognize life and were swimming around Cao Ang.  At first, Cao Ang only dared to move around the edges. After he swam a few times and became familiar with the water temperature, he would slowly swim towards the center of the pool.

    About half a quarter of an hour later, Cao Ang finished washing up and got over his addiction to swimming. Just as he was remembering to put on his clothes, he heard footsteps in the distance.

    At this time, he was very shy because he was completely naked. If Cao Ren and others saw him, they might make fun of him again.  There happened to be very lush aquatic plants nearby, so Cao Ang hurriedly swam near the aquatic plants and covered his head with the aquatic plants.

    Soon, more than ten people walked near the pool.  Perhaps they were tired from walking, so they stopped at the pool to drink some water to quench their thirst.  One of them whispered, "Third Master, according to the map, let's go down five or sixty feet along the river, which is where Cao Ang's little thief camped! Should we still go down? What if Cao Ang finds out?  We will be exposed!"

    A middle-aged man sneered and said: "If you are exposed, you will be exposed. There are only a few people on the other side, but we have twenty elites! What's more, there are peerless masters like the Third Master, who can fight against ten without any problem!"

    After everyone listened to his speech, they couldn¡¯t help but curse inwardly, Liu Xiao, this slippery man, had once again succeeded in flattering the Third Leader!

    Cao Ang could guess that these three masters must be very happy, because then one of them smiled and said: "Xiao Liu, you can't praise me like this! What kind of peerless master am I? At most, I am the second master in Qiao County.  That¡¯s all!¡±

    "Who dares to be ranked in front of our third master?!" That Liu Xiao immediately said: "With the martial arts and heroic spirit of the third master, he is the best in our Heifeng Village and even Qiao County! According to me, when that kid Cao Ang hears you  With his name, he would be so scared that he would pee his pants!"

    Cao Ang frowned as his name was called several times by them. Listening to the words of these people, it seemed that they were not good people, and they appeared just to cause trouble for him.  But I have been following the rules recently, and there is nothing out of the ordinary!

    The third in charge smiled generously, "Cao Ang, you are just a concubine. We have carefully selected twenty elites this time, which is really a killing of chickens. But since the eldest brother has arranged it like this, he naturally has his reasons. You?You also know that in the entire Qiao County, except for our eldest brother (Du Yuan), I will not accept anyone!  Since the eldest brother asked us to act with caution and it is best to conduct a sneak attack at night, then I, Du Gao, will naturally act according to the order and cannot go beyond it!  "

    Someone next to him quickly praised: "The third master and the first master have a deep brotherly relationship, which is really enviable to us!"

    Everyone around also praised him, and the third master Du Gao said with a smile: "You little bastards, stop flattering! What Li Laosan said just now makes sense. If you go further down, Cao Ang may notice you. If you rush over now, you can definitely kill him.  Cao Ang, but if they resist desperately, maybe we will have to kill one of our brothers! They buy murderers, but we can't lose our capital. Tonight, let's rush over secretly and kill Cao Ang in bed!"

    ¡°It¡¯s really a blessing for everyone that the third master cares about our brothers so much!¡± Liu Xiao choked and said, ¡°I, the great boss, have the honor to work with the third master, it is really a blessing I have cultivated in my previous life!¡±

    Everyone agreed, and the third master listened to everyone's compliments proudly, and then said with a smile: "We are here today. Everyone, follow me back to the camp to have a good rest. Tonight, we will attack the enemy camp at night and kill them."  Kill Cao Ang!"

    Everyone applauded and surrounded the three heads.  When the sound of their footsteps gradually disappeared, Cao Ang carefully poked his head out from the water grass. Seeing that there was no one around, he climbed ashore.  He quickly took out his clothes from a secluded place, dressed neatly, and followed the traces left by the thieves.

    Although the thieves were very careful when walking, there were so many of them that they left very clear footprints and traces.  After walking for about a quarter of an hour, Cao Ang reached the edge of their camp.  He carefully hid in the grass and secretly looked into the enemy camp.

    This camp is not big, it can only accommodate twenty or thirty people.  The bandits in the camp are building simple straw huts, preparing for a good night's sleep.  In fact, it was quite a hard journey for them to get here from Heifeng Village. The battle was about to begin, so they must take some rest in advance.

    Cao Ang saw that the twenty or so people were all wearing coarse linen clothes and had no decent armor at all. As for the weapons in their hands, they were even more shoddy.  Except for five or six people who held swords in their hands, the rest of them just held long sticks with sharpened ends.  This is not because they have unified weapons. In Cao Ang's opinion, it is probably because this simple version of the spear costs the least.

    After watching them carefully for half a quarter of an hour, Cao Ang was able to draw a conclusion for them. Although this group of people was fat and strong, they were actually a rabble.  As long as you are careful, and with the help of Cao Ren and Lao Zhao, you will definitely be able to defeat them, or even annihilate them all!

    After completing the observation, Cao Ang carefully stepped back and stopped at the slightest sign of trouble.  When he reached the far corner, the thieves were still unaware.  Cao Ang then turned around and strode towards his camp.

    When he returned to the camp, Cao Ren and others who happened to be out hunting returned. Cao Ang summoned everyone to his camp to tell the story of the bandits.  As for Lingshan, Cao Ang did not hide it from her.  In Cao Ang's view, the thieves left no grass behind wherever they passed, and she, a girl, should share the same hatred with everyone and fight the thieves to the end.

    After Cao Ang finished introducing the situation, Lingshan frowned and said, "I seem to have heard my sister mention the name Black Wind Village. It is said that the Yellow Turban thief Du Yuan is entrenched there! You just said that those thieves claim to be members of the Black Wind Village.  Man, you will be in trouble now!"

    Lingshan clapped her hands happily, and Cao Ang decided to ignore this little girl with small breasts and no brains.

    Old Zhao frowned and said to everyone: "The young master just recounted the conversation of the thieves. I wonder if you have noticed one of the things? That is, the thieves actually have a detailed map of the location of our camp, and know the young master (Cao Ang)  Also here. You know, apart from heaven and earth, only Lijiazhuang knows the information about us here! It seems that someone in the Cao family wants to put us to death! "

    Cao Ang sighed, "I have caused trouble to everyone this time, and I really feel guilty! The thieves won't come here until night anyway, so it's better for everyone to leave early!"

    Cao Ren shook his head: "It's not your fault. We all know in our hearts that it was your second uncle who wanted to kill you for the sake of his precious son. Since I'm here, I will definitely protect your safety.  , Besides, the other side is just a bunch of chickens and dogs, so what do we have to fear?!"

    Xia Houmao also nodded repeatedly: "What my uncle said is true. There is nothing to fear from thieves. Although I, Xia Houmao, am not very skilled in martial arts, I am willing to help Aang kill the enemy! We brothers will show these thieves what they mean.  Brothers working together can cut through metal!"

    Cao Ang bowed to everyone, stopped being pretentious, and said to everyone: "Since everyone is willing to stay and help me, I, Cao Ang, can't live up to everyone's high expectations. These thievesThe equipment is crude and the military formation is inaccessible. As long as we unite as one, we can defeat them in one fell swoop!  My plan is this"
