Da-da, da-da.

The four of Song Mansion rode horses and walked on the official road without hurrying.

"Song Qing, you are so disappointing. Song Ya, who was riding in front, suddenly said lightly without looking back.

"Sister Ya......" Song Qing gritted her teeth and didn't say anything again.

"In short, it's no fun to get a recommendation spot, go back and prepare for the Heavenly Trial in four days. Song Ya said softly.

She suddenly remembered something again, and wondered: "By the way, when you and Cheng Yuan were fighting, how did you lose?"

When she came, Song Qing had already been defeated, and she didn't see what happened before.

When Song Qing heard this, his face turned pale, but he still told what had happened at that time.

“...... Crane Lao, what is the strength of this Cheng Yuan?"

Hearing that Song Qing, who was already the elite of the young generation of the Song Mansion, was so suppressed by Cheng Yuan, Song Ya's heart moved, and she asked Elder He.

"If I were replaced, I wouldn't be more relaxed than him in the face of Young Master Qing. The old man of the Song Mansion shook his head slightly.

"Can he compare to you?" Song Ya had a look of surprise in her eyes.

The old man of Song Mansion, who once held a sword to fight against ghosts and gods, is a figure at the level of a martial arts master.

"I'm all in the work, not all in the knife. Maybe it's because he specializes in swordsmanship...... "Crane Lao said slowly: "In short, this journey is far away, I'm afraid it's close to my level." ”

"Didn't Chengjiazhuang have a celestial?" Another young man from the Song Mansion, who had always been a little indifferent, suddenly spoke: "If there is some background, a genius just appears, and it is not uncommon to cultivate it. ”

"Maybe. However, there has been no news of that celestial man for many years. ”

Song Yasi pondered: "Since Cheng Yuan already has such strength, it is very likely that he will be recommended by Huo Tianbing, and there is a great hope of becoming a celestial." Our Song family, let's try our best to make friends. ”

~~~~~~~~~~

After breakfast, Cheng Yuan was about to go out again to find a remote place to practice alone, but he met Cheng Yongshi, the leader of the Chengjiazhuang hunting team.

"Ah Yuan, today we are going to go into the mountains to hunt once, do you want to go to the event?" Seeing Cheng Yuan, Cheng Yongshi grinned.

Going on a big hunt today?

Cheng Yuan's heart moved.

Chengjiazhuang, and even the surrounding Zhuangzi, have the custom of small hunting and big hunting.

Hunting is the hunting of one person or several people, or a random number of people, on the outer edge of the Black Rock Mountains.

Although there are ghosts in this world, if you only hunt on the outer edge of the Black Rock Mountains during the day and don't go deep into some dangerous places, you will hardly provoke ghosts.

It's just that on the periphery of the periphery, there are ordinary small and medium-sized prey, rabbits, pheasants and the like.

And the big hunt is to concentrate Zhuangzi's top hunters and heroes, go a little deep into the mountains, and hunt those large prey such as lions, tigers, wild boars, and some valuable wild animals, such as rare armored beasts, white sables, etc.

Of course, the big hunt will not provoke ghosts, and it still belongs to the activities in the outer areas, after all, the weakest mountain ghosts are also irresistible to mortal warriors.

And the reason why Cheng Yuan's heart is excited is that big hunting can often catch valuable prey, such as lions and tigers, fur, meat, bones, tendons, liver and gallbladder, etc., all of which are good things, and they can be sold for dozens or hundreds of taels of silver.

The larger wild boar is also twenty or thirty taels of silver, and the blind bear is even more valuable than the lion and tiger.

"Although I just got three hundred taels of silver tickets from Song Ya, I have too many places to spend money now, and it costs twenty taels of silver just to eat one Jingyuan Dan every day. ”

"If you can go up to the mountains and hunt something big, you can save some money. ”

Cheng Yuan thought in his heart, and immediately said: "It's just boring to cultivate these days, Uncle Yongshi, let's go!"

"Wait, I'm going to inform Yongliu and Nagata and a few of them. Cheng Yongshi left happily.

After a short time, a hunting team of 32 people from Chengjiazhuang gathered at Zhuangkou.

"Don't talk nonsense, everyone, be careful, hurry up, you must come back an hour before the evening. ”

After Cheng Yongshi finished speaking, he shouted: "Let's go!"

The mighty group of people immediately walked quickly into the mountain.

In the hunting team, they are all the top hunters and heroes in Chengjiazhuang, and the weakest ones have six or seven hundred catties of strength, and there are seven internal martial artists who have reached the limit of the human body.

"Uncle Yongshi, show me the Slashing Sword?"

Cheng Yunye, the youngest in the hunting team, is also seventeen years old, but this is the second time he has followed the hunting team up the mountain to hunt, and he is extremely greedy for the slashing knife behind Cheng Yongshi's back.

Cheng Jiazhuang also has a total of two slashing knives, one of which remains in the clan and is kept by the old patriarch Cheng Mingyuan.

The other slashing knife can only be brought when the hunting team goes up the mountain to hunt to guard against ghosts.

Normally, ordinary clansmen don't see the Slashing Sword at all.

"Hairy, go, go. Cheng Yongshi impatiently drove him away, this slashing knife is something that saves the lives of dozens of people, and he takes it very seriously.

"Tsk. Cheng Yunye grinned unhappily.

Suddenly, Cheng Yuan looked at a dense grass in the distance, but he didn't move.

A moment later, when the hunting party was a few dozen paces away, the grass swayed and a hare sprang out of it.

"Hey!" a burly man immediately rushed over with great agility, and actually grabbed the fleeing hare directly and lifted it up.

"Yonglin, are you in such a hurry with this little thing?" one of the clansmen quipped.

"Take it back, Xiao Nan has always wanted to raise one. The burly man smiled innocently, and by the way, he put the rabbit in a rattan cage behind him.

Soon, the hunting team went all the way into the mountains for about ten miles, and continued to catch some hares, pheasants, deer and other prey on the way.

After Cheng Yuan became a celestial, his facial features underwent an earth-shaking transformation, and he could find the movements of these prey from a distance, but he didn't do much.

These prey are generally only a few hundred wen or a few taels of silver, and he will leave them to other clansmen first.

The real big heads are all on the back road.

Soon, Cheng Yuan discovered the big guy for the first time.

The other clansmen of the hunting team, including Cheng Yongshi and the other six internal strength martial artists, didn't notice anything, and Cheng Yuan shot directly at the trees in the distance like an arrow.

"Ah Yuan?" Cheng Yongshi was puzzled, and suddenly, a big wild boar burst out of the bushes, estimated to be seven or eight feet long, fat and strong, with sharp fangs.

Hum!

The big wild boar directly slammed into Cheng Yuan with a pair of big fangs, and the force and speed of the collision were enough to directly stab the ordinary strong man through.

"Be careful, help Ah Yuan, together-" Cheng Yongshi was shouting, and suddenly saw Cheng Yuan dodge exquisitely, avoiding the big wild boar, and then the knife in his hand instantly went up.

Laugh at~!

The big wild boar spurted blood from its throat violently, and instantly fell into a state of madness, but it was kicked down by Cheng Yuan several times.

Even with the explosive power of the internal strength martial artist, these few kicks were enough to cause the wild boar to suffer serious internal injuries, and Cheng Yuan added a little force to make the wild boar lose most of its ability to resist.

"We're not ready for that. A clansman looked stunned.

"Okay, Ah Yuan, when did you become so strong?" Cheng Yongshi said in surprise, and stepped forward to pick up the wild boar: "This wild boar is found and caught by you alone, and you will be counted as forty percent!"

Part of the harvest of the hunting team is evenly distributed, and the other part of the harvest is distributed according to the amount of effort and merit, and the maximum is 40%.

After all, every time you go into the mountains to hunt, there are twenty or thirty people together, and one person takes forty percent, which is already very high.

"Okay, hurry up, it is estimated that from here, there will be no shortage of big guys. Cheng Yongshi had a smile on his face and continued to move forward with the hunting team.

~~~~~~~~~~

At the same time, not far from the Chengjiazhuang hunting team.

The hunting team of Wangjiazhuang also carried out big hunting in the mountains.

"Little monkey, it's your first time hunting with us, so be careful. Wang Leishan, the captain of the Wangjiazhuang hunting team, was admonishing a young clansman who was still a little childish.

"Well, Uncle Lei Shan, don't worry. The young man, known as the "little monkey," looked nervous and excited.

"Uncle Lei Shan, there won't be a mountain ghost coming out suddenly, right?" he looked at the big trees and dense forests around him, and those deep gloomy places seemed to hide strange things.

"Haha, don't worry. Wang Leishan laughed when he heard this, and patted him on the shoulder: "What did you tell you before?"

"This Black Rock Mountain Range, the outer area is still very safe, as long as you don't enter the Yin Forest. ”

"Those deep valleys and woods where the sun can't shine, no matter night or day, the atmosphere of the underworld will not disperse, and mountain ghosts and even stronger ghosts will naturally be born. ”

"However, as long as we are active in these normal mountains and forests and do not take the initiative to go in, it is basically impossible to meet ghosts during the day. ”

The little monkey nodded, relaxed, and smiled: "Too nervous, forgot." ”

"Well," Wang Leishan turned his head and shouted, "Be careful, don't be hurt by the beast." ”

Suddenly, an inky black shadow was startled by a member of the Wangjiazhuang clan, and it flew by like lightning in front of everyone.

"What's that?!" the little monkey was startled.

"It's the Yin Fox! Catch it!" Wang Leishan was overjoyed.

"Yin Fox?"

"Catch it, the yin fox is a treasure of thousands of taels!" The people of Wangjiazhuang were extremely surprised, chasing and intercepting them, so that the black shadows were all over the ground.

Suddenly, the inky black shadow was smashed by a member of the Wangjiazhuang clan and landed in front of the little monkey.

Only then did the little monkey see that it was a fox with dark black bodies and dark green eyes.

"Catch it!" the exclamations of the surrounding clansmen immediately made the little monkey react, and he reached out and grabbed the tail of the yin fox.

However, the Yin Fox's fur was so smooth that it was slippery than the hand of the girl he liked, and in an instant it broke free from his grasp and fled into the depths of the forest.

The little monkey immediately became anxious and hurriedly chased after him.

"Chase!" The clansmen of Wangjiazhuang also chased, but the little monkey was one of them who was quite nimble, and followed the injured Yin Fox, and ran out more than ten zhang in a moment.

“....... Wait!" Wang Leishan looked at the direction of the little monkey's pursuit, immediately woke up, and hurriedly shouted: "Little monkey, don't chase, don't chase!"

It's just that the excited and nervous young man didn't notice his shouting at all, and only the sound of the whirring wind and the shuttling of branches and leaves in his ears were heard.

After chasing dozens of feet, the little monkey finally pounced, grabbed the yin fox in front of him in his hand, and smiled happily: "How is it?

It's just that the yin fox in his hand suddenly shrank, as if he was extremely frightened.

"Hehe, don't be afraid, we won't hurt you, the ladies in the county will buy you. He gently stroked the little head of the yin fox, and suddenly felt the unusually cool around him.

Although the shady place in the mountains and forests was shady, it was not like this, which made him goosebumps all over his body.

He shook his body, only to find that everything around him seemed to have become gloomy.

It's the kind of "dimness" that seems to fade away even the sound and the colors around it......

"This ......," he vaguely realized something, and turned his head slowly and stiffly.

In the shadows of the mountains and forests in front of him, at some point, a cloud of haunting and twisted humanoid black gas appeared.

Everything went dark, and the already deep dense forest seemed to fall into endless darkness.

Woo~Woo~Woo......

A strange and ethereal voice from another world rang in my ears......
