The endless yellow sand is particularly dazzling under the scorching sun. Clusters of shrubs stand quietly in the yellow sand, leaving little shadows. The air is like solidified water vapor, trembling in the air. Under the light, it is as if
An everlasting picture.
Silence enveloped this piece of yellow sand. Suddenly, the yellow sand not far away started to move. A ball of sand slowly rose from the ground. With the soft sound of rustling, a black shadow slowly appeared in this piece of sand.
On the monotonous yellow sand, yellow sand continued to slide off its body. With a long and muffled hum, the black shadow shook wildly, splashing waves of sand. When the dust settled, there was a sharp mouth and four limbs.
The short monster with a long tail slowly revealed its true face. If you look closely, you will see that it looks very similar to a mouse. The monster arched its nose forward, then turned around and ran forward at a high speed.
So fast, he was already ten meters away in the blink of an eye.
Suddenly, four long darts flew from all directions. With a buzzing sound, the long darts went straight to its eyes and the back of the neck on both sides. There was only a squeaking sound, and the four dart guns were inserted into its body at the same time. The monster.
He let out a long, piercing cry in pain, and fell to the ground, causing a splash of sand. Then more than ten people sprang out from the yellow sand on all sides, and they surrounded them with shouts. Most of these people were holding long swords.
The spears and dart guns stopped 5 or 6 meters away from the monster and formed an encirclement. Everyone clenched the weapons in their hands and stared at the monster on the ground. The sound of nervous breathing made the surroundings fall into chaos again.
There was silence.
This monster looks like a mouse, but it is not a mouse, but a pig rat, a monster beast with extremely strong vitality and fecundity.
The pigs and rats were seen curled up on the ground, motionless, with red blood flowing all over the floor with a trace of hot air, and four dart guns penetrated into the vital parts.
After careful observation, a hint of excitement appeared under the solemn expression of a big man. He was seen holding a short knife tightly in his right hand, and made a don't worry gesture with his left hand to everyone, and then cautiously approached the pig and mouse.
The big man's name was Mao Wu, a hunter of the Chinese tribe. Mao Wu bent over with his chest in his arms, and his whole body tensed up, preparing to deal with emergencies. He was very clear mentally, although the long dart penetrated the left eye, left cheek, and right side of the pig and mouse respectively.
On the back of the head and the left side of the neck, on the surface, every dart gun can be fatal, but the monsters in the Dead Continent are not so easy to hunt. The blood flowing from the pig and rat has not solidified, and there is a faint trace of essence lingering on it.
, and it persisted for a long time. Based on many years of hunting experience, Maowu concluded that this was a spirit-level pig rat whose inner elixir had been condensed and its essence had just begun to form. Its realm should be around the fourth level.
The beasts of the Dead Continent can break through physical limits and even appear spiritually intelligent by absorbing spiritual crystals. There are 9 levels of the beasts’ cultivation realm; levels 1-3 are monsters; levels 4-6 are spiritual beasts; levels 7-9 are divine beasts.
.
The inner elixir that a fourth-level spirit beast is likely to condense into form, also called a beast soul bead, is an indispensable material for Chinese medicine or elixir refining. It is extremely precious. A fourth-level beast soul bead is worth at least one million spirit crystals.
The workload of the Huaxia clan is enough to offset the tasks of a hunting team for more than half a year.
However, although the treasure is good, it is not easy to obtain. The combat power of the fourth-level spirit beast is comparable to that of a strong human Taoist realm. No one knows how powerful it will be if they fight back desperately; and not all spirit beasts can condense the inner elixir.
.Although it is full of uncertainty and danger, the value of a fourth-level beast soul bead still makes Mao Wu's heart beat faster than expected.
At the moment when Mao Wu was stunned, the spirit pig rat suddenly stood up and rushed straight towards him, as fast as an arrow leaving the string, and an air shield formed in front of it. How could the power of a dying blow be so small?
Look. Mao Wu is no ordinary person. He has been wandering on the edge of life and death for many years. He has already developed extraordinary reflexes. In half a breath, he recovered from the shock. He took action with the short knife in his hand and flew towards the pig and rat like lightning.
behind the front legs; at the same time, he jumped out of the attack range of the pig rat.
The short knife broke through the air shield and penetrated into Pigrat's heart. However, Pigrat did not fall down because of this. He suddenly turned around and hit Uowu again. Not only did his speed not slow down, but it increased a few points. He fought to the death.
The force of the attack arrived first before the body of the pig and rat was struck. The strong wind that came in front of him actually caused pain on Uowu's cheek, and he had no time to avoid it.
"To be able to explode with such combat power even when his heart is broken, could it be that this pig rat has broken through to the fourth level?" Mao Wu thought with a tight heart.
Being captured without restraint is not the behavior of a Chinese hunter. At the moment of life and death, Mao Wu gritted his teeth, and the energy in his body surged out. The powerful force was like a sharp knife, and he violently collided with the pigs and rats.
As soon as they made contact, a powerful impact violently dispersed Uowu's concentrated strength. The powerful force made Uowu's mind sink, and his body was instantly knocked away. Relying on his instinctive reaction, Uowu rolled away.
, scraping the ground and flying ten meters away, a mouthful of blood spurted out.
Everything happened between lightning and flint. The pig and mouse wanted to take advantage of the situation to pursue, but the short knife inserted into the heart made it weak. The strength was broken, the condensed energy began to dissipate, and the surrounding hunters also took the opportunity to surround them, and a cold light flashed suddenly.
With no chance of survival, the spirit pig rat let out an unwilling roar and fell into a pool of blood.
Mao Wu stabilized his body, suppressed the injury with luck, and stood up with difficulty. But in his heart, he thought in shock: "It turned out to be a fifth-level spiritual beast. Fortunately, the sneak attack seriously injured it, otherwise it would have fallen here today."
Just when everyone relaxed their vigilance, a strong wind suddenly appeared, blowing up the yellow sand around the pigs and rats, and covering them up. Everyone couldn't figure out the reason, and they could only rely on luck to protect their vitals.
One of the hunters was half a beat too slow to react, and was actually blown into the air by the strong wind, flying towards Uowu.
Seeing this, Mao Wu ignored his own injuries and quickly gathered his strength to stop him.
Unexpectedly, the hunter who flew towards Mao Wu suddenly changed his expression and shouted hurriedly: "Brother Mao Wu, be careful...!"
At this time, Uowu also discovered that the strong wind came from the pig rat, but he thought it was just the remaining condensation of the spirit pig rat, so he didn't pay attention to it. But just as he caught the flying teammate, he felt a pain in his right foot, and then staggered
He took one step and fell to the ground. He saw that a long dart originally inserted into the pig and rat's body actually passed through his teammate's left arm and stabbed into his own foot.
The yellow sand settled again, and the spirit pig rat lay on the ground, all its spiritual energy dissipated, and its life was gone. The hunters were shocked and at a loss. No one could have imagined that this pig rat had such a skill. The hunter who was rescued by Mao Wu
The person was even breaking out in cold sweat. If Mao Wu had not taken action, the spear would not have been inserted into his arm, but into his heart.
This is the cruelty of survival in the Dead Continent. Even though the Huaxia Clan has absolute status, they still need to use their lives to survive. Fortunately, the Huaxia Clan has a special medical center, and all members of the clan who are injured can receive free treatment.
Mao Wu did not stay in the hospital, but returned home with his wife. Mao Wu's wife is a doctor, named Yin Cong, and they have a son named Qi, who is 3 years old this year and does not have a surname yet. According to the tradition of the Chinese people
As a rule, any tribesman who is under 6 years old and has not chosen a profession does not have a surname.
As soon as they entered the house, Qi chased them back and kept circling around Mao Wu and Yin Cong. Qi was very tall, with a shaved head, and his childish voice added a lot of joy to Mao Wu and his wife's life. And Mao Wu and his wife were very happy.
The reason why Wu chose to go home regardless of his injuries was because according to the clan rules, Qi would go to the clan academy to study tomorrow. With this separation, the father and son may never have the chance to see each other again. But Qi doesn't know this now.
, and still yearns to go to college. Qi often hears his father say: In college, you can eat a lot of delicious food and understand a lot of truths. As long as Qi works hard enough, he can be like his father and mother, who can go out hunting, see doctors and save people.
After dinner, Maowu and his family sat around the courtyard as usual and began to practice Qi. Although Qi wanted to go out and play, his mother once told him: "Qi must be good and keep practicing Qi, so that he can become like his father in the future."
An equally powerful hunter." Qi didn't know what qi was, nor how to practice it, but in order to become a hunter like his father, Qi still chose to practice qi with his father and mother.
The surrounding gradually became quiet. Qi fell asleep on the ground at some point. Uowu slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air and looked at Yin Zang sitting next to him. His eyes were full of reluctance. He opened his mouth several times and finally
Then he asked softly: "Qi will go to the clan school tomorrow, and our status as husband and wife..." Maowu paused and did not continue, the reluctance in his eyes turned into tears.
Looking at her husband who was about to leave, Yin Cong felt a twinge in her heart. Mao Wu was her first husband, and he cared about and took care of her very much. After several years of getting along with her, Yin Cong truly realized what the warmth of home is.
.But since the two of them got married, they have never had children. According to the traditional rules of the Chinese people, either of the husband and wife has not reached the state of enlightenment, and they have less than 2 children within 5 years, or less than 3 children within 10 years.
Yes, the family must be reorganized. Tomorrow will be the fifth year that Mao Wu and his wife have lived together. At this time, Yin Zang's realm is only the ninth level of Jin Realm, and Mao Wu has just touched the Tao Realm, and is still far from the Xing Realm.
, the separation of husband and wife has become a foregone conclusion. A happy and warm family must be broken up for the continuation of the race. Although it is helpless, it has to be done. Moreover, Mao Wu also knows that his feet have injured his meridians. Unless he truly reaches the Taoist realm,
Otherwise it can only become a disability.
"Brother Wu, your... your foot... your foot...? Strong pain suddenly struck, and Yin Cang had already choked up in tears and couldn't speak.
Uowu pursed his lips, gritted his teeth, and tried his best to suppress the pain in his heart. After a long time, he said softly: "It's not a big deal, I just lost one foot. The big deal is that I won't be a hunter."
In the Huaxia tribe, hunters have a very high status. Even the warriors who protect the family and the country must be courteous, because hunters are the backbone of the survival of the Huaxia tribe. Therefore, every hunter regards the honor of the hunter as higher than life.
How can we just let go of an existence beyond life??
