Siheyuan: All the incense in the family is counting on you

Chapter 198 Qi Qi Ge Wants to Learn Flying Knife

Li Bowen touched his butt and sighed helplessly, "Oh... well, I just hope my butt can stay intact before I learn how to ride a horse."

Qi Qi Ge looked at his appearance and couldn't help but burst into laughter: "Hahaha~ Don't worry, nothing will happen. I'm a very good teacher. As long as I'm here to guide you, you will be able to learn to ride a horse quickly. Let's go over there and rest for a while."

Then, the two men loosened the reins and let the horses graze freely. They found a higher place and sat down together.

Li Bowen asked curiously, "Do you usually come here to herd sheep alone?"

Qiqige smiled and nodded, and replied: "Yes, everyone in the family has their own things to do, so I can only take on the task of herding the sheep alone."

Li Bowen continued to ask: "Aren't you afraid? I've heard from others that there are many wolves on the grassland."

Qiqige couldn't help laughing, "Haha, you know too little about wolves. In fact, they are not as scary as everyone imagines.

During this season, wolves have sufficient food sources and usually do not attack sheep easily.

Only in winter, when the mountains are covered with snow and there is no food to be found, will they take risks, but that requires many wolves to gather together before they dare to come. Now, even if I encounter a single wolf, I will not be afraid. "

"Well, you're pretty awesome. I've encountered wolves before and even beat a few of them!" Li Bowen nodded and recalled his experiences fighting with wolves, as if those scenes of fighting with wolves were still vivid in his mind.

Hearing this, Qiqige looked at Li Bowen with some suspicion, and said with a hint of ridicule: "Is it true that you, with your delicate skin and tender flesh, can fight wolves?"

After hearing Qi Qige's questioning, Li Bowen did not get angry, but laughed instead.

He rolled up his sleeves, revealing the scar on his arm, and said, "Don't disbelieve me, this was caused by a wolf biting me. When it bit me, I stabbed it to death with a knife!"

After saying that, Li Bowen took out a throwing knife from his waist and showed it to Qi Qige.

Qiqige took the flying knife, weighed it in his palm for a few times, and frowned slightly: "What can such a small thing do? The knives we use to eat meat at home are bigger than this."

"Hahaha, this is not an ordinary knife, it's a flying knife, a hidden weapon that can attack the enemy from a long distance!"

After listening to Li Bowen's explanation, Qi Qige's eyes lit up and he asked curiously, "Hidden weapons, you know this? Then show me how to do it!"

Li Bowen looked around and said, "How can we play? There is not even a tree here, and we can't find a suitable target!"

At this time, Qi Qi Ge's eyes suddenly turned, and then he stood up and pulled Li Bowen in one direction, muttering: "I have a way, you come with me!"

Qi Qige took Li Bowen for a walk on the sunny slope and soon found several cave entrances.

She pointed at the holes and said to Li Bowen, "Look, these are rabbit holes. I'll light a fire here and let some smoke in. If there are rabbits inside, they will quickly run out of these holes. Do you have the confidence to hit them?"

Faced with such a challenge, Li Bowen was really troubled.

After all, when he practiced throwing knives before, he only hit fixed targets, and the only real living things were the green-skinned guy and the guy who was sitting on the fence when catching a spy.

However, at that time it was completely like a blind cat catching a dead mouse, and there was no accuracy at all.

Now he had no idea how to achieve such a small goal, but how could he say he couldn't do it in front of a woman? So he gritted his teeth and nodded: "Don't worry, I'll take care of it!"

Looking at Li Bowen's determined expression, Qi Qige began to light the half-dried grass, and then stuffed the smoking grass into the rabbit hole.

Before long, thick smoke began to billow out of several holes around.

Li Bowen stared at the cave entrance not far away nervously, muttering to himself: I must rely on the feel of my hands, never rely on my eyes to aim. At the same time, he tightly grasped the two throwing knives in his hands, ready to strike at any time.

At this moment, a gray shadow suddenly rushed out from the cave entrance, so fast that people were caught off guard. Li Bowen didn't even have time to think, and the flying knife in his hand subconsciously flew towards the gray shadow.

All this happened so quickly, as if it was an instinctive reaction. Maybe it was luck, or the rabbit was too unlucky, or maybe it was fate that allowed Li Bowen to show his skills.

In short, the flying knife accurately pierced the rabbit's neck, and after causing it to roll a few times in the air, the rabbit stopped moving and was obviously dead.

"Hit it!" Qiqige shouted happily, ran to the rabbit, picked up the rabbit's ears and lifted it up. She carefully looked at the flying knife on the rabbit's neck, her eyes full of surprise and admiration.

Afterwards, Qiqige ran back to Li Bowen happily and said expectantly, "I want to learn this, can you teach me?"

Li Bowen frowned and replied, "Why would a girl learn this? It's too dangerous. You can easily hurt yourself!"

However, Qi Qi Ge retorted disapprovingly: "What's the danger? If I learn it, I can not only hunt pheasants and rabbits, but also protect myself when I encounter wolves or bad guys. Just teach me!"

She held Li Bowen's hand tightly, shaking it coquettishly, with anticipation gleaming in her eyes.

"Okay then, but I also have to see if you have the talent!" Li Bowen agreed, but thought in his heart, Xiao Li Feidao can be learned easily if you say so.

"Then what does it mean to be talented?" Qi Qige asked.

Li Bowen looked around and pointed at a lamb about 3 to meters away from them and said, "Pick up a few stones. If you can hit the lamb within three times, you are talented, and I will teach you!"

"You really are not allowed to regret it!" Qi Qige showed a sly smile.

"Well, a gentleman's word is as good as a whip!"

Qi Qi Ge picked up a few small stones from the ground and shook them in his hand. Who has the time to run around all the time when herding sheep? Apart from the sheepdog, all the rest has to do is use the stones to round up the sheep. This is an easy task.

"Watch out!" Qi Qige swung his arm hard and the stone flew out like a bullet and hit the lamb squarely.

Feeling in pain, the lamb bleated and ran towards the ewe.

Then came the second, the third... and without exception all of them hit the lamb's back. The lamb cried in pain and quickly hid behind its mother for shelter. Only then did Qi Qi Ge stop what he was doing.

While thinking about the remaining stones in her hand, she looked at Li Bowen proudly and said, "How is it? My skills are not bad, right? Can you teach me how to throw knives now?"

Li Bowen opened his eyes wide, his face full of surprise. He had never expected that this seemingly ordinary girl had such excellent stone-throwing skills, and every stone hit the target accurately.
