Chapter 139 The Horse That Can't Turn
The archer stepped forward and asked, "Sir, shall we go?"
Lin Mimi clamped her legs around the horse's belly and said, "Let's go! I'll ride slower, you catch up slowly, I'll wait for you in front."
"Let's go, Wei Ying." Wei Ying heard and followed her on horseback.
The archer agreed, "Yes, my lord, I'll be there soon."
Lin Mimi squeezed the horse's belly, pulled the reins and ran into the dense forest.
The wind whistled past her ears, blowing her hair into the air.
Just then, a little gray rabbit ran out of the woods and stopped not far away.
Lin Mimi tightened the reins and the horse stopped. Lin Mimi took a deep breath, raised the bow and arrow, and aimed at the little gray rabbit with both hands.
With a "whoosh", the arrow shot out and hit the little gray rabbit's neck.
The little gray rabbit struggled for a few times and then fell to the ground motionless.
Lin Mimi looked at her results with some surprise. She didn't expect that she could be so accurate in archery on her first try.
She suddenly developed a blind confidence in her archery skills.
"Wei Ying, look at what I shot!" Lin Mimi shouted to Wei Ying with a proud look on her face, waving the bow and arrow in her hand.
Wei Ying smiled slightly, with a faint smile on his lips, looked at her gently, and said softly: "Master is really amazing."
At this moment, an archer came running over in a hurry, panting heavily, his eyes fell on the gray hare that had been shot and fell to the ground not far away.
The archer widened his eyes with surprise on his face, then turned to look at Lin Mimi and cheered excitedly: "You are so awesome, my lord!"
Hearing the praise and compliments from the Archer Servant, Lin Mimi couldn't help but feel a surge of joy and pride in her heart.
A satisfied smile spread across her face, and she became more and more confident in her shooting skills.
"Take it away, it's my trophy." Lin Mimi pointed at the hare on the ground and ordered the archer.
The Archer hurriedly walked up to the gray rabbit. He skillfully tied up the rabbit with a rope, and after making sure it could not escape, he threw it into the bag he was carrying.
After completing the task, Jian Shi stood respectfully aside, waiting for Lin Mimi's next instructions.
Afterwards, Lin Mimi rode leisurely on her horse, slowly passing through the dense forest. The light shone through the gaps between the leaves, forming patches of mottled light and shadow.
While enjoying the peaceful atmosphere, she kept an eye out for other rabbits.
Time passed minute by minute, and about half an hour later, Lin Mimi had caught five or six rabbits with the bow and arrow in her hand.
She was not too excited about her outstanding performance. Instead, she felt that shooting these defenseless rabbits could not fully demonstrate her superb archery skills.
So, Lin Mimi made a new request to the archer beside her: "Take me to a more challenging place. The rabbits here are too easy for me."
The archer was a little embarrassed, but still responded respectfully: "Yes, my lord."
Then he took her to another dense forest that was a little more difficult.
This forest is deeper than the previous one, and the trees are taller and denser, giving people a mysterious and dangerous feeling.
However, this kind of environment was exactly what Lin Mimi wanted. There was excitement in her eyes and she couldn't wait to try her skills.
There are mostly deer, antelopes and birds, and the requirements for archery are much higher.
They walked along the path, and suddenly a fawn jumped out from the grass.
Lin Mimi quickly put an arrow on the bow and shot at the deer, but the deer seemed to be extremely sensitive to its surroundings and dodged the arrow she shot very quickly and fled away.
The archer comforted her, "It's okay, you will definitely hit the target next time."
At this moment, a sharp and piercing cry was heard in the air, and Lin Mimi looked towards the source of the sound.
Seeing a big bird hovering above her, Lin Mimi took out an arrow, drew the bow with both hands, and aimed at the bird above her head.
"Swish." Lin Mimi shot the arrow out, using all her strength.
Soon the sound of an arrow piercing flesh was heard, and Lin Mimi looked over happily.
Seeing the bird above falling down at a very fast speed, Lin Mimi picked up the reins and ran towards the direction where the bird was falling.
Lin Mimi walked closer to the approximate location before stopping and looking around for any traces of the bird.
"Ah! I see it. Here it is."
Just then, a series of rapid and powerful sounds of horse hooves came from far away, as if coming from the other side of the horizon.
Lin Mimi turned her head and saw a man riding a strong horse running towards her.
The man sat steadily on the horse's back, his posture straight as a pine tree. As the horse approached quickly, she couldn't help but feel panic in her heart.
Because... this horse doesn't even know what turning means!
It looked like it was about to crash straight into Lin Mimi...
Lin Mimi stood there in a daze, and without time to react, she looked at the horse running towards her.
"Master!" Wei Ying, who was standing by, saw that the situation was not good and without thinking too much, he flew towards Lin Mimi, trying to use his body to block the possible danger.
"Your Excellency!" Not only Wei Ying, but even the archer was stunned by the sudden change.
None of them expected things to turn out like this, and they were all stunned for a moment.
However, at the critical moment, the man on the horse reacted quickly. He pulled the reins tightly and tried his best to control the horse.
Finally, the horse finally stopped only half a meter away from the two people.
The man tilted his head to look at Lin Mimi beside him. Lin Mimi sensed the danger, stopped, put down her hands that were holding her head, and was about to step forward to argue.
However, when she looked closely, she was surprised to find that the man on the horse was the one who taught her the art of archery...
The depressed feeling in Lin Mimi's heart became increasingly difficult to dissipate, and she widened her eyes.
She glared at the man in front of her and said through gritted teeth, "Fu Nanzhu, you are such a jerk today! Let's settle all the old and new grudges together!"
Facing Lin Mimi's questioning, the man seemed a little helpless. He explained innocently, "I just came here to pick up my eagle. I didn't notice you were here. This is really just a misunderstanding."
Lin Mimi asked in a high-pitched voice: "Your eagle?"
"Where is your eagle?" She stared at the man.
Fu Nanzhu got off his horse and slowly walked towards Lin Mimi. As he approached step by step, Lin Mimi couldn't help but retreat backwards until Wei Ying, who was standing beside her, supported her waist and she was able to stabilize her body.
"You...what do you want to do?" Lin Mimi's voice was a little soft.
Facing her question, Fu Nanzhu did not answer, but pointed behind her.
