Chapter 3 Amber
Seeing Zhou Chen walking out of the room, Leng Yiyao was still a little blushing, but much better than yesterday.

"Brother Chen, are you awake?"
"Ah, yes, I'm awake."

"Then let's eat. There are still a lot of chickens left from yesterday. Let's finish them all today."

"Oh, okay," Zhou Chen sat down at the table, and soon Leng Yiyao brought the food to the table. During this period, the two did not speak, but Leng Yiyao did pick up some meat for Zhou Chen from time to time. After the meal, the pheasant and the soup had been completely finished by the two of them. Of course, most of it was eaten by Zhou Chen.

His enhancement points also directly reached 0.14. Looking at his enhancement points, he said, "It won't be long before I can enhance my archery again."

Then Zhou Chen stood up and said, "Yiyao, I plan to continue hunting today."

"Ah, Brother Chen, are you still going? I think the weather is bad today, so you'd better not go."

"Although the weather is bad, it shouldn't snow. I have to prepare more food for us before the mountain is blocked by heavy snow."

Leng Yiyao thought about it, then turned around, took out a package from the room and handed it to Zhou Chen.

"What is this?" He opened the package and was shocked by what was inside. It turned out to be a Tang sword. Zhou Chen couldn't help but pull out the sword.

I held the handle of the knife and tried to chop a few times. It felt quite smooth. "How come Yiyao has a knife in her house?"
"This is what my father left behind. There's no use for me to keep it. If Brother Chen likes it, you can take it."

"Then I wonder if my uncle left behind any secret sword techniques or something like that?" Zhou Chen asked excitedly.

However, the result was disappointing. Leng Yiyao shook her head and said, "Dad passed away so suddenly that he didn't leave any martial arts secrets."

Although he was a little disappointed with the result, Zhou Chen quickly came to his senses and said, "Okay, I'm leaving. You lock the gate and wait for me to come back."

Then he put the Tang sword on his waist, carried the bow and arrow, and went up the mountain.

This time, Zhou Chen walked deeper into the mountain for half an hour longer. There were more wild animals in the deeper part of the mountain than outside. During this time, Zhou Chen could vaguely hear a few bird calls.

However, Zhou Chen's target was not them, but animals that were slightly larger, at least animals like pheasants.

His luck was obviously good today, as he actually met a sika deer, which looked quite fat.

The sika deer was more than fifty meters away from him at this time. Zhou Chen was not sure he could hit it with one arrow, so he quietly moved towards it.

However, this sika deer was much more alert than the pheasant. Zhou Chen was discovered just after he moved forward ten meters. The sika deer turned around and ran away without saying a word. How could Zhou Chen let go of the prey?

Although he couldn't hit the deer with one arrow at a distance of 40 meters, he couldn't care less at this moment. Zhou Chen immediately drew his bow and shot the arrow. Without any hesitation, the arrow was shot out instantly, and with a thud, it hit a big tree next to the sika deer.

"Almost."

Hearing the sound behind him, the sika deer ran faster. Zhou Chen did not hesitate. After missing the first arrow, he drew his bow and shot three arrows again. With two more bangs, two arrows nailed into the tree. Although the third arrow did not hit the sika deer, it scratched the deer's hind legs and nailed it into the snow.

The speed of the sika deer obviously dropped a lot. Zhou Chen quickly drew his bow and chased after the deer. When he was still more than 20 meters away from the deer, Zhou Chen drew his bow and shot an arrow again. This time it hit the deer directly. Although the sika deer was huge in size and did not die on the spot, it fell in the snow and had no strength to continue running away.

Soon Zhou Chen came to the front. Looking at the dying sika deer, Zhou Chen did not let the deer continue to suffer. He pulled out his Tang sword and relieved his pain.

After wiping off the blood on the blade, Zhou Chen discovered that there were two words engraved on the blade: "Amber". Zhou Chen gently stroked the blade with his hand and said to himself, "So your name is Amber."

Then a prompt interrupted his thoughts: "Discover whether to obtain the demon pattern."

Zhou Chen looked down and saw a deer-shaped demon pattern floating out from the body of the sika deer. Zhou Chen quickly chose to obtain it, and then the demon pattern floated into Zhou Chen's body.

Then he opened the equipment bar and saw a new demon pattern in the item bar, the Deer Pattern (adds 3 to the ninth-grade ordinary strength of the left arm). "Another increase of strength by three. These two demon patterns combined are equivalent to the strength of an adult. It seems that I have to get a secret book to practice quickly."

It soon got dark, and Zhou Chen walked down the mountain alone, carrying the sika deer on his back. There was no way he could do it because the deer was too big, which seriously affected his speed, which was why he was still on the mountain so late.

But it was all worth it. This deer was enough for them to eat for a while. At this time, heavy snow was falling from the sky. Suddenly, Zhou Chen, who was on his way, felt the danger.

Then he saw an arrow flying out from the woods next to him, and with a scream, Zhou Chen fell directly into the snow.

More than ten minutes passed like this, and Zhou Chen was still lying in the snow without moving. At this time, a big man with a longbow walked out of the woods. There was also a knife on the big man's waist. He came to Zhou Chen and looked at him on the ground.

At this time, an arrow was stuck in the body of the sika deer. "Xiaochen, don't blame me for being cruel. It's not easy for everyone in this winter. If you want to blame someone, blame you for carrying such a big prey around outside."

Then he put away his longbow, bent down and turned to the sika deer. As soon as he caught the deer, Zhou Chen stood up suddenly, and Amber also instantly came out of his body and slashed at the big man with a knife.

In a panic, the big man took two steps back to avoid the knife, but the deer in his hand was cut in half by the knife.

The big man looked at the arrow stuck in the half of the sika deer in his hand. It turned out that he failed to shoot through the beast. Zhou Chen knew this big man. He was also a hunter in the village and his name was Li Ergou.

Seeing Zhou Chen's cold eyes, the big man drew out the long knife from his waist and said, "These days everyone is fighting for food, how about we each take half."

"Hmph, why?" Zhou Chen would not bully others and certainly would not let others bully him. He had killed the prey by himself, so why should he get half of it?

After saying that, he rushed forward. Li Ergou threw away the half deer in his hand and chopped it with a knife.

After the knife strike, both of them took a few steps back, but Zhou Chen felt numbness in the palm of his hand, while Li Ergou was fine.

Zhou Chen activated his skills, and then a number 12 appeared above Li Ergou's head. Zhou Chen cursed inwardly, "I was careless. I didn't expect his strength to be so high."

Li Ergou spoke again and said, "I won't let you suffer in vain. I can exchange with you."

"Oh, I wonder what Brother Ergou is going to exchange with me."

Li Ergou took out a book from his arms and threw it over. Zhou Chen took it and took a look at the "Liuhe Sword Technique". Zhou Chen looked at him with a puzzled look on his face and said, "Do you really want to exchange this with me?"
"How about changing it or not?"

Zhou Chen hesitated for a moment, but finally gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, let's change it."

Li Ergou laughed loudly, "Haha, smart!", then put away the long sword, carried his half and walked away.

At this time, Leng Yiyao was walking around the room anxiously, "What's going on? Why hasn't Brother Chen come back yet? Has something happened?"
