After working the first half of the night, it was Lu Zhong's turn to rest in the second half of the night.
He did not choose to squint for a while, but instead sat cross-legged and practiced his exercises in order to recover more spiritual power.
When you are in the wilderness, it is very necessary to maintain as much spiritual power as possible.
Soon, it was getting dark.
When the sun rises, a pot of spiritual rice is cooked. A lot of newly picked wild vegetables and the leftover dried meat from yesterday are added to it. It tastes pretty good when mixed together.
After breakfast, the team set off again.
But their luck was a bit bad, it suddenly started raining.
The rain started lightly, but soon turned into a heavy downpour.
Even though everyone was equipped with rain gear, there was a curtain of rain that seriously blocked the view. It was already extremely difficult to identify the direction, and there was no point in moving forward in such heavy rain.
"It would be great if Fellow Daoist Lu could learn the art of pathfinding, so that we can continue moving forward."
Taking shelter from the rain under a protruding rock, Lin Zhongze looked at the white world outside and couldn't help but sigh.
Pathfinding is not actually pathfinding, it is just a status blessing spell.
When the pathfinding technique is used, it can keep the subject from losing their sense of direction in complex environments. Therefore, it is often used in pathfinding and guidance, and it is gradually given the name of pathfinding.
If Lu Zhong used the pathfinding technique to bless Xiao Qi at this time, he would be able to maintain his sense of direction.
This way, you won't get lost in the heavy rain.
Getting lost in the wilderness is a terrible thing.
Because you don't know what you will encounter if you deviate from the route.
It might be to find a precious elixir, or it might be to stumble into a place of death.
That's why Lin Zhongze stopped the team's progress to prevent them from getting lost in the rain.
It took half an hour for the sudden rainstorm to finally stop.
The team did not delay and immediately set off on their way.
It was extremely difficult to travel in the wilderness after a heavy rain. Either the road ahead was blocked by flash floods, or the markers on the map disappeared due to mountain collapse, so they had to re-establish their bearings before they could continue moving forward.
After stumbling all the way, when they arrived at the Buffalo Valley, everyone was covered in mud and water.
"Here." Lu Zhong took out the cleaning charm and gave it to others.
Others were not polite, after all, they were all included in the expense reimbursement, and they all said thank you.
After dividing the talisman, Lu Zhong took a few steps away from the others before patting the talisman on himself.
Immediately, a faint spiritual light covered his whole body, and many of the mud and grass blades stained during the journey were blown away. Even the wet monk's robe had dried a little, and no longer looked like a mud shell.
After taking three photos in a row, I finally felt refreshed and clean.
At this time, others have also finished processing.
"Let's go into the valley and take a look. I hope the fearful bear is still there." Lin Zhongze held out the long spear, with sparks scattered on the tip of the spear, and walked ahead.
Xiaoqi followed closely, then Sanniang and Huang Shuyuan.
Seeing this, Lu Zhong also injected spiritual power into the Qingshuang Sword and followed closely.
…
Buffalo Valley.
On the map, this is a long and narrow valley.
It is more than thirty miles long from north to south, and its widest point is only three or four miles.
There are not many trees in the valley, but plump and juicy straw grass can be seen everywhere.
Perhaps it was because it had just rained heavily. At this moment, the air humidity was extremely high and the valley was filled with fog.
When the line of sight is blocked, reconnaissance and collection of intelligence becomes very necessary.
It was time for Xiao Qi to come on stage. After groping around for a while, he took out a dark-colored animal-shaped doll with quite exquisite workmanship.
"Puppet machine beast?" Huang Shuyuan said in surprise.
Lin Zhongze glanced at Huang Shuyuan in surprise and said with a smile: "I didn't expect that Mr. Huang Daoyou was so knowledgeable that he could recognize the origin of this object at once. You guessed it right, it is a puppet machine fox used for reconnaissance. There is it in front
By exploring the path, we can move forward without worrying about sudden danger."
Then he looked at Lu Zhong and continued: "Please, fellow Daoist Lu, please use the Qi-gazing technique to observe the surroundings. The trap fox may not be able to detect all dangers, but we still have to be just in case."
Lu Zhong nodded, chanted the incantation, and performed the Qi Watching Technique.
At this moment, his vision suddenly turned into black and white again.
The fog's obstruction to the line of sight disappears, and all scenery can be clearly distinguished.
It's just that the terrain of the Buffalo Valley is really complicated, with uneven terrain and many places that cannot be observed by the naked eye. Lu Zhong estimated that even if there was no fog, it would be difficult to detect the hidden dangers.
No wonder Lin Zhongze asked Xiao Qi to release the machine beast to explore the way.
After walking forward for a while, Lu Zhong made a discovery.
"I saw the evil spirit, just in the direction of the huge wedge-shaped rock on the left front!"
"Okay, let's move over there slowly, being careful not to disturb the monster." Lin Zhongze ordered immediately and decisively.
Because of the different nourishing effects of innate physique and spiritual energy, monks are at a disadvantage when confronting monsters. Therefore, they usually use sudden attacks to beat the monsters until they are seriously injured and dying in a single encounter, so as to reduce the risk of hunting monsters.
drop to lowest.
Everyone moved towards the wedge-shaped rock and soon heard the sound of chewing.
Looking through the cracks in the rock, you can see a giant bear tearing at the bison carcass on the ground in a basin with thin mist below. Its mouth is full of blood and it is enjoying the meal, and it looks like it wants to eat more.
long time.
"That's right, I'm afraid of bears!" Lin Zhongze confirmed.
When hunting monsters, the most difficult thing is never how to kill them, but how to find them.
Due to the vastness of the wilderness, even an experienced hunting team often cannot find its target for ten days and a half.
After all, monsters are not fools. They cannot appear openly and openly, otherwise they will become the prey of other monsters.
The fearful bear in front of me must be a herd of bison in the Greed Valley, so it stayed here.
But no one knows how long it will stay in the Buffalo Valley.
"Without further delay, let's proceed according to the previous plan!" Lin Zhongze was very decisive, and turned to Xiao Qi and said: "Xiao Qi, use that poisonous arrow. Anyway, the meat of the fear bear cannot be sold for money."
Xiao Qi nodded, reached for the quiver behind his back, and took out a long green arrow.
Put this arrow on the bow string, then slowly pull the five-stone bow open, and wait for others to take their positions.
After a few breaths, a green shadow flew out silently.
With a "puff" sound, the long arrow accurately hit the belly of the fear bear.
The fearful bear screamed in pain, and the man stood up two feet tall, and a fierce aura erupted.
Almost at the same time, Lin Zhongze rushed out quickly with a flaming spear in hand. Without any fancy, he stepped on a rock and jumped, and stabbed the fearful bear in the eyes with his spear.
The fearful bear reacted immediately. It was smart enough to use one arm to protect its eyes.
At the same time, the bear's paw as big as a round table clapped down.
This blow was so powerful and heavy that if it were hit, it would be shattered to pieces.
But at this moment, a talisman shot at Dread Bear's feet very quickly, and the weeds on the ground began to grow crazily.
It was Sanniang who inspired a wood-binding talisman, and the wildly growing weeds immediately wrapped around the fear bear. Although it was immediately broken by the huge force, it also slowed down the falling speed of the bear's paw.
It was Lu Zhong's turn to take action, and the Qingshuang Sword flew in front of Fear Bear. At this moment, the blade of the sword glowed green, and the Qingshuang cold air filled the air.
Without any hesitation, he chose to attack another of Fear Bear's exposed vital points.
As the saying goes, don't worry about your butt, now her anus is wide open!
"prick!"
The sword technique in his hand changed, and the Qingshuang Sword moved in response.
Fast! Accurate! Cruel!
"Ouch!" A shrill wail echoed through the mountains.
The Qingshuang Sword entered without a hilt, and at the same time, the small magical power attached to it was operating to the extreme, and streams of cold air continued to emanate from the sword, causing greater damage to the Fear Bear.
Lin Zhongze blocked with his gun, only to feel a huge force coming and his whole body was sent flying.
When he saw Lu Zhong's successful sneak attack, he immediately rushed forward with a gun, regardless of his injuries.
A flash of cold light suddenly appeared, and he launched a fierce offensive towards the Fear Bear.
But what Lin Zhongze didn't expect was that the Dread Bear's actions had become very slow at this moment, and were no longer as ferocious as they were at the beginning.
At first, he thought the poisoned arrow had taken effect.
But when the fearful bear roared, ice sprayed out from its mouth, and then he suddenly realized that it was Lu Zhong's green frost and cold energy that played a big role.
