Venturing Deeper into the Mountain to Hunt

The mountainous area to the North of the Su Family Village was one of the mountain range branches of the Yuzhou Ridge. It was only several kilometers wide but comprised of quite a lot of large and small hills. The place turned luxuriantly lush and green during the summer with its towering old trees, yet it looked desolate in the cold winter.

When Tang Xiu was a child, he followed the adults to venture to the back of the mountain, but only a few times had he ventured deeper into the mountain range. Many old hunters who made a living from hunting may have ventured deeper inside. Su Ben's grandfather was one among those old hunters, but after Su Ben's father generation, they did not fully make a living from hunting anymore.

The tapered towering rocks were queer and were arduously precipitous.
