He drew an arrow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His expression was thoughtful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If only I could hunt a tiger or leopard.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A tiger or leopard's pelt would definitely fetch a good price.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Those prominent families and powerful clans would probably all like them.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Duan Yu nocked the arrow on his bow, then stood up and glanced at the sun that had already begun to set.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let's head home, looks like today will just be like this.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tomorrow I'll go into the city to buy some equipment, then enter the mountains again.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Saying this, Duan Yu lowered his head to pack up his spoils, then retreat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Right at that moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On a tree only about two meters away from Duan Yu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A leopard covered in spots.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Its muscles, which had been tightly coiled, suddenly relaxed, followed by a forward pounce, its two massive front paws spread wide, heading straight for the top of Duan Yu's head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Duan Yu, whose head was lowered, flashed a cold gaze, raised his arm, drew the bow fully, and shot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In one fluid motion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Beast, I've waited for you so long, you finally took the bait!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Duan Yu wore a cold sneer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The arrow in his hand had already been released.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The arrow, carrying a fierce wind, went from bottom to top.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It shot directly into the spotted leopard's lower jaw, then exited from the crown of its head by the left ear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as the first arrow hit, Duan Yu had already drawn a second arrow and fired another shot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The positions hit by the two arrows were nearly identical.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The spotted leopard, still in midair, landed on the ground with a thud, then twitched twice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hehe.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Duan Yu laughed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He stepped forward and kicked the spotted leopard's body twice with his foot.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Confirming there was no reaction, it was completely dead.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Duan Yu bent down and lifted the spotted leopard's two front paws, looking at them with satisfaction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"With this spotted leopard, going into the city tomorrow will probably earn a big profit.\" Duan Yu was very happy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he was sitting here just now, Duan Yu had already sensed the danger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As a mercenary, running around on battlefields year-round.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A sense of crisis had long since become second nature.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was just that the spotted leopard was very wary.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And its speed was fast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Duan Yu was worried that if he took the initiative to attack, he might very well startle the spotted leopard away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So he put on this act to lure the spotted leopard into taking the bait.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he stood up, the arrow was already nocked on the bowstring.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bending over and lowering his head was deliberately exposing a flaw to the spotted leopard lying in wait in the tree.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only this way could he catch it off guard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The strategy succeeded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The spotted leopard took the bait, and so it died.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tying the spotted leopard's two front paws with a rope, then directly carrying it on his back, Duan Yu satisfied, took strides heading down the mountain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Two rabbits, two pheasants, and three foxes, plus a spotted leopard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was Duan Yu's harvest for the day.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the old hunters in the mountains saw these prey, they would surely die of shame.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Accompanied by the setting sun, Duan Yu's footsteps were light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"With these prey, I can exchange them for money in the city tomorrow, and also buy some clothes and rouge for Diaochan.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This little girl has had it too hard these past few years.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Duan Yu thought to himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for those matters of fighting for supremacy over the world, Duan Yu did not want to think about them for now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, that was too far from him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Right now, he was at best an unregistered resident.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No household registration, no identity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not to mention comparing with people like Yuan Shao and Cao Cao, even compared to Liu Bei, he was far behind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So whatever fighting for supremacy over the world, let's put it aside for now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>First survive, and live life well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was what needed to be done most right now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Keep his feet on the ground and walk steadily step by step.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the future, that could be discussed later.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn't have some heaven-defying system either.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The kind that starts you off with a hundred thousand troops or a million-strong army.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This system also required bit-by-bit effort to earn returns.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let the little girl live a good life first, so she doesn't fall to the point of becoming a singing girl in someone else's house, then we'll talk.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The setting sun was fiery red, its glow filling the sky.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Diaochan stood before the dilapidated fence of her yard, looking up toward the distance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just like a young wife waiting for her husband to return.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the thatched cottage behind her, curling cooking smoke rose.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The water vat left outside was already filled to the brim.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beside the water vat sat a wooden basin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside the wooden basin, hot water was giving off steam.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A rooster and a hen were pecking at the gravel and newly awakened bugs on the ground in the small yard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why isn't Big Brother Duan back yet?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Diaochan's eyes showed some anxiety, her tone tinged with worry.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her tiptoes and gazing figure betrayed her urgent feelings at this moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her uncle had been gone for a day, yet Diaochan was not worried.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because Diaochan knew her uncle had probably gone drinking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Or he might be drunk somewhere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Duan Yu was different.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Duan Yu had gone into the mountains to hunt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Diaochan had heard before that whenever someone went into the mountains to hunt, they either got lost in the hills or never came back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone knew meat was delicious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the wild beasts in the mountains weren't something just anyone could hunt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So Diaochan was very worried.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as Diaochan was gazing at the far end of the village.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A little boy wearing ragged, coarse cloth clothes ran quickly past the front of Diaochan's small yard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sister Diaochan, Sister Diaochan, come look! A wandering knight came to the village entrance, and he's carrying a big spotted leopard, it's this big!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The little boy spread his arms wide to gesture.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shouting as he ran toward the village.\u003C\u002Fp>",1245,"2026-06-15T02:56:25.579Z","2026-06-15T14:28:09.848Z",1,"GLM-5.1","62989dc7b731505f075c29c60bc2bf47bd6ed09e555340890f8473ad651c67c3","three-kingdoms-tenfold-speed-diaochan-says-i-m-t-chapter-8","three-kingdoms-tenfold-speed-diaochan-says-i-m-t-chapter-6",13,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthree-kingdoms-tenfold-speed-diaochan-says-i-m-t-cover.jpg"]
