"real?"

Liu Lingling's heart was pounding. She didn't expect that despite some twists and turns, she still got Nathan Wei's hunter order.

This hunter order was signed by the county magistrate himself. It was a certificate that allowed a village to have at most three vacancies.

The first two years were fine, as one only had to pay a binding fee of one or two taels of silver to get the hunter order. However, as the world became more and more chaotic and life became difficult, people began to need tribute to get a certificate from the county government.

It is impossible to get this certificate without spending six or seven taels of silver.

Six or seven taels of silver are enough to cover their family's living expenses for several years.

But my younger brother has grown up, and he is lazy and doesn't like farming. He wants to go into the mountains to become a hunter and catch rabbits, but our family doesn't have the money to buy him a hunter's order.

It just so happened that this idiot's father died at the right time. If the bow is repaired, at least a lot of money can be saved on buying a new bow.

Liu Lingling's face lit up with joy, but then her eyes turned red and she leaned her head directly on Nathan Wei's shoulder.

"Nathan Wei, thank you so much. I will repay you even if I have to work like a slave in my next life."

When Nathan Wei heard what Liu Lingling said, he almost laughed out loud.

It's another classic story of working like a slave in your next life.

You don’t even know where your next life will be!

"What's the matter with that! What's mine is yours!" Nathan Wei still had that silly look on his face. He stretched out his hands and hugged Liu Lingling's shoulders, kneading them continuously.

This guy's hands were not honest. Liu Lingling blushed and her heart beat fast when he touched her, but now was a critical period and she couldn't turn her face.

"Hey, good Nathan Wei, please give me the Hunter Order~"

Liu Lingling simply let him touch her as much as he wanted and moved closer to Nathan Wei.

"Oh!" Nathan Wei nodded with a lingering feeling. He pretended to be alert, looked around to see that there was no one around, and then spoke mysteriously.

"Come here and I'll tell you."

"Okay~"

Liu Lingling was almost sticking to Nathan Wei’s face.

"I don't know where the Hunter Order is!"

"Um?"

Liu Lingling was a little confused and felt like she didn't hear clearly.

"What did you say?"

"My father hid all the hunter orders."

Nathan Wei hesitated.

"I don't know where it is. I'll give it to you when I find it, but it seems to have fallen in the mountains."

Liu Lingling stood there in a daze.

Can't find it? Fell into the mountains?!

"Please look carefully. Where is the bow? Give it to me first!"

"I couldn't find it. I searched all over the house. I can give you the bow.

This is my family's heirloom bow. My great-grandfather was killed by a tiger while holding this bow. My grandfather also died while holding this bow at the hands of a leopard. My father also... They say this bow is ominous, but they must be liars! Take it!"

As he said that, Nathan Wei was about to stand up to get the bow, but was stopped by Liu Lingling.

"You should keep the bow for yourself..." Liu Lingling looked flustered.

In this mountain village with backward resources, the villagers are very superstitious. When she heard that the bow was so evil, how could she dare to take it?

"Well, it's nothing. I'll go back first. My mother is waiting for me at home!" Liu Lingling said, and hurriedly picked up the basket. No matter how Nathan Wei shouted at her, she left without looking back.

What a loss! Liu Lingling was so angry that her eyes turned red. Not only did she waste two steamed buns, but they were also touched by this idiot. These steamed buns were her daily rations. She had no food to eat at night.

Soon, from a shabby hut in a corner of the village, there were heard Liu Lingling's cries, a man's angry curses, and an old woman's sharp accusations.

Hearing Liu Lingling's screams, Nathan Wei smiled wickedly.

Niu Er searched the house for two whole days but couldn't find the hunter's order. With the scraps you have here, do you think you can get the hunter's order out of me?

Nathan Wei looked at the small persimmon tree outside the yard and couldn't help but sigh.

The original owner's father was probably afraid that his son would give the Hunter Order to Liu Lingling without knowing why, so at the moment before his death, he told him that the Hunter Order was hidden under the persimmon tree.

Fortunately, I came by myself.

Otherwise, the original owner's father's painstaking efforts would be in vain.

After eating two steamed buns and rummaging around a bit, Nathan Wei was in a good mood and took out the worn-out longbow hidden under the bed.

The longbow was already worn out, and the guard wrapped with hemp rope had been worn out beyond recognition.

The bowstring was so loose that it was hard to imagine what had happened to my father that caused him to pull the bow like that in a panic.

Dad's death was definitely not that simple.

Nathan Wei pulled out an iron-headed arrow from the quiver. After all, the original owner was a hunter's child, so he drew the bow and put the arrow on in one smooth motion.

But it was a useless bow after all. When an arrow was shot from it, it only flew a distance of five or six meters.

"Looks like I still have to upgrade," Nathan Wei said calmly, then summoned the system in his mind.

【Nathan Wei

Skills: Archery 0/20 (beginner)

Track 0/30 (Beginner)

Experience: 10】

Then look at the bow and arrow in your hand.

【Old mulberry wood bow

Archery effective range bonus

It can be upgraded to "ordinary mulberry wood bow" by spending 5 experience points.

Without hesitation, Nathan Wei consumed a little bit of data in his mind.

With a crackling sound, the mulberry wood bow in his hand seemed to be gradually changing.

【Ordinary mulberry wood bow

Normal mulberry wood bow, effective range 50-70 meters

Archery bonus 5%】

Looking at the wooden bow in his hand again, Nathan Wei felt that its weight seemed to have become slightly heavier, and the worn rattan rope guard had returned to its normal state, and it seemed to be more refined.

Picking up the iron-headed arrow again, Nathan Wei tentatively drew the bow and drew the arrow. He felt the bowstring was extremely powerful, and somehow he seemed to have become more familiar with archery!

"Walk!"

As Nathan Wei loosened his grip, the arrow shot out instantly, and with a snap, it shot straight into the mud under his feet! Almost two-thirds of the arrow had been shot into the ground, with only the short tail left outside!

Several times more powerful!

Nathan Wei smiled, pulled the iron-headed arrow out of the soil, and was overjoyed.

It seems that God is always on my side.

Thinking of this, Nathan Wei looked at the sun. It was already noon, and even the sound of Liu Lingling's parents beating their daughter had stopped.

Nathan Wei put down his bow and arrow again and put his hands on the shabby stone bed.

But this time, the panel did not appear.

Nathan Wei withdrew his hand awkwardly.

As it stands, it seems that only offensive items can be upgraded.

The sun is scorching, casting its rays unreservedly on the earth.

It's time for a nap.

Nathan Wei did not hesitate at all. He put the bow on his back, took out a worn-out fire starter from the clothes among his father's belongings, put it in his pocket, and hurried out.

After walking out of the courtyard, Nathan Wei looked back at the blood-stained khaki stretcher in the yard and clenched his fists secretly.

"Don't worry, I know you died unjustly. I will avenge you, even though I am no longer your son."

After saying that, Nathan Wei turned his head and looked around to make sure that no one was outside the village at the moment. Then he carefully found a rarely traveled path and walked towards the back mountain.

Revenge must be taken, but the most urgent priority now is to fill my stomach.

He is at an age where food is enough to make him broke. Two steamed buns are not enough for his daily consumption.
