Chapter 73: Time in the Wilderness
"Tongchi?"
After looking carefully for a long time, Wang Yan finally found that although this guy looks like a mouse, he is strictly a close relative of the mouse. Well, in fact, it is actually a mouse in essence! Although he has become a fat ball, he looks like a mouse no matter how he looks like.
"Yes! I'm...Tongcat...not a mouse..."
A faint voice came from under him. When the monster heard Wang Yan's muttering, he felt energetic as if he had been knocked on medicine, he returned from the brink of being blown to death like a rebirth.
"The scientific name of the chinchilla is a shingle mouse, which belongs to a mouse! It's not wrong to call it mouse!" Wang Yan did not show mercy because the monster was a patient, but continued to say seriously.
"You are... rats... your whole family... are... rats..."
The monster was very hurt and was so angry that he was speechless. I didn't know how disgusted the word "rat" in my heart, but he even forced himself to scold Wang Yan.
The movement here aroused Ma Xiaoling's concern. When she rushed over, she saw each other cursing each other and was stunned.
"Are you okay?"
Ma Xiaoling touched Wang Yan a few times and asked with concern.
"I'm fine!" Wang Yan smiled and shook his head, then pointed at the monster beneath him and asked, "What should I do with this mouse? Should I kill it?"
"I'm not a mouse..."
"You'd better shut up, otherwise you have to die first if I don't have to do it!" Wang Yan slapped the monster's head and said unhappily.
"After all, he is an old senior who has lived for hundreds of years. How can you treat it like this?" Ma Xiaoling gave Wang Yan a blank look, squatted down and asked the monster, "Do you want to die or live?"
"I want to live!"
Finally, I met someone who was easy to talk to, and the monster was so moved that he almost cried.
"Okay, what do I ask, what do you answer! How many years have you lived? What are your abilities?"
"I don't know how long I have lived. Anyway, I have lived in this mountain since I was a child. As for my ability... I can dig ginseng!" The monster thought for a while and said very seriously.
"You can dig ginseng? I can dig sweet potatoes!" Wang Yan sneered, no longer interested in this monster. He has lived for many years, but he has been in a mess.
Facing this monster, Ma Xiaoling was obviously much more patient than Wang Yan. After thinking about it, she asked: "Digging ginseng... did you say you could find ginseng?"
"Yes, not just ginseng, but also the delicious roots and red fruits."
After hearing the monster's words, Wang Yan finally realized it. No wonder this monster was so fat. No wonder it never went anywhere to harm the ginseng-raising people here. It actually found medicinal materials from the mountain.
"I've found a treasure!"
Wang Yan murmured in his heart, and his eyes looked at the monster as if he was looking at a moving treasure. As long as this monster was in hand, there would be no shortage of medicinal materials. Especially in the mountains and forests at the end of the 20th century, there would definitely be a lot of medicinal materials. Wang Yan had these medicinal materials and could cultivate and suffocate his body. Even if he could not break through the innate, his foundation would be stronger, and he might even use his strength to break the trick and force to enter the innate realm.
"Keep this mouse, it will be of great use to me!" Wang Yan looked at Ma Xiaoling and said solemnly.
"Okay, as long as it doesn't continue to steal ginseng, my mission will be completed." Ma Xiaoling said indifferently.
Wang Yan squatted down, looked at the monster, and said, "I can spare your life and heal your injuries, but you must find enough medicinal materials for me!"
"Okay, as long as you no longer call me 'mouse', I will promise you!" After hearing Wang Yan's words, the monster agreed without hesitation. It was a wild monster that grew up in the mountains, and even spoke with the herbicide collectors who entered the mountains. There is nothing in his heart that can be compared with life, and it used to eat, sleep, sleep and eat every day, but now, Wang Yan still lives his original life.
"Xiaoling, you go back first. I may have to stay in this mountain for a while." Before Wang Yan finished speaking, he was immediately interrupted by Ma Xiaoling.
"I'll accompany you. When you go back alone, you will definitely be asked around. Why not take care of each other?" Ma Xiaoling looked directly at Wang Yan's eyes, and there seemed to be a strange light in her dark eyes, making people unable to extricate themselves.
"You are different from me. Even if I disappear for a year or two, it's nothing. At most, I will be fired. But you are different. As the last successor of the Ma family, you must not have anything to do. Besides, the conditions in the mountains are simple, so it's very inconvenient for you as a girl. Let's go back!" Wang Yan held Ma Xiaoling's hand tightly, his face full of concern.
"So slippery! So soft!"
Wang Yan was so happy that he wanted to push Ma Xiaoling directly, but as a good man with principles, bottom line and moral integrity, he would never let others see his dirty thoughts.
"Okay!" Although he wanted to stay here with Wang Yan, Ma Xiaoling finally gave up when she thought that she could not take a shower in the mountain for ten days and half a month.
In this way, while reluctance, Ma Xiaoling boarded the plane back to Xiangdao, while Wang Yan left the monster in the mountains.
With such a guide who has lived in the mountains since childhood, Wang Yan has gained a lot. Various precious medicinal materials of hundreds of years have been found, and even thousands of years of medicinal materials can be seen occasionally.
With the help of these medicinal materials, Wang Yan learned the secret techniques of Master Miaoshan and the Ma family while working hard. I don’t know if he was separated from the world and worldly world. Wang Yan’s progress has improved rapidly and his mood has improved significantly. Although he doesn’t know when he will reach the level of the nameless sword in the Heavenly Sword, Wang Yan was able to occasionally touch the state of unity between man and nature without using the Bing Xin Art. It has to be said that he has gained a lot.
Wang Yan got a lot of benefits, and the monster also got a lot of benefits. After eating the Blood Bodhi, the monster's injuries improved rapidly. With the help of Wang Yan, many medicinal materials grown on cliffs and giant trees could also be picked, which increased its Taoist practice a lot.
Time suddenly passed, and a year and a half passed in the past.
In the mountains in northwestern Jiangxi, a man like a savage walked out with a fat mouse in his arms.
The man was 1.8.9 meters tall, with his explosive muscles bulging high, and his messy beard could not cover his strong face. He seemed to have walked out of a Schwarzenegger movie.
"It's been more than a year! I'll take you to see the world of humanity!"
