Chapter 54: Hunting Apprenticeship
Between the strange flowers and grass with mottled shadows, a gray phantom swept across the half-human-high grass, and the green grass tip suddenly sounded a rustling, followed by two blue-blue night owl-like streamers, moving extremely fast, and the distance between the two was only a few feet away.
Neither the former nor the latter, the speed of the flight was like a bullet, and it only sent a gust of wind and grass above the meadow where it landed.
After a while, perhaps tired, the gray figure of the former finally made a sudden brake on a piece of bluestone covered with green moss, slowly stopped, and the alert gaze suddenly turned behind him, only to make people see clearly that the gray phantom was actually a brown-gray squirrel, and its extremely supple fur was slightly shiny in the sun, but the size of this squirrel was more than twice as large as the squirrel in the mortal world, and much larger than the cat in the mortal world.
His dark eyes, like jewels, shimmered from time to time, and he looked warily at the chasing hunter behind him, obviously he didn't have much respite.
The two gray figures who were chasing after each other, in the blink of an eye, also stood two or three feet away, showing their figures, the two gray streamers, were actually two blue and white wolf with blue and white stripes, with faint pupils, snow-white fangs and sharp fangs, with a low roar, the forelimbs stepped slightly from the foothold, and the hind heels followed it, the cold light flashed, and the force suddenly exerted between the feet, and then the body twisted, swept from two different directions, and the target was naturally the prey in front of him.
"Hiss" whispered sharply, as if begging for mercy, as if fear.
The squirrel's eyes flashed with fear of light, and with the slightly trembling brown beard, the furry figure quickly curled up, showing a pitiful appearance of extreme fear, if the woman saw it, I was afraid that it would burst with love in an instant, and I wanted to take her into my arms and take it out of the predicament in front of me. It's just that this poor offensive naturally couldn't impress the two beasts who used him as a meal.
Compared to the two behemoth-like streamers, the petite body of the squirrel is like a delicious snack, and in the next second, it will obviously become a delicacy in the belly of the former.
Not far away, on the treetops with dense foliage, the shadows of the trees swayed slightly, and between the swaying of the dense and impermeable leaves, faintly, several motionless figures could be seen clinging to the branches.
The people who are all shadows are naturally Wu Weiwei Entropy and the others.
Wu Wei frowned, the poor squirrel at the moment, Rao couldn't help but shake his own concentration a little, but Wei Entropy's people, including Li Yi and Zhou Yi and others, did not move at all, and the latter two also made a "silence" gesture towards him, revealing a mysterious and unpredictable smile, as a novice, Wu Wei naturally did not dare to move, so he could only silently calm down, facing the direction of the squirrel, motionless.
Wei Entropy's target this time was the two cyan and blue wolves, and the items requested on the commission were the front paws of the wild wolves, and the sharp front paws were excellent materials for making high-quality fist spurs.
In an instant, the twin shadows arrived, and several cold lights suddenly came. The little squirrel looked helpless, but he was powerless to escape, and his face was depressed, but his eyes full of aura flickered slightly, and he could only lead his neck to be killed.
The silver light was about to land on the squirrel's soft brown fur, and the earthy yellow seal qi suddenly surged, and the moment the seal qi surged, four streams of light burst out from the oblique thorns.
In the depths of the grass, at some point, four squirrels with a slightly smaller size were ambushed, and they shot in mid-air, maintaining a two-on-one posture and pounced on them, and the squirrel that was originally quite pitiful was also facing one of the green and white wolves at this moment, counterattacking.
At this moment, the weakness of the squirrel's petite size reversed in an instant, and a sharp hiss suddenly erupted from the volley.
Cold sweat was left from Wu Wei's forehead, and the reversal of the hunter and the prey, he was a little stunned for a while, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly.
The sudden attack made the two wild wolves dazed for a while, and their sharp front paws fell on the hard stone, and the remaining strength was not reduced, and the huge bluestone where the squirrel landed was struck out of a deep pit.
Five swift figures, a few flickering, actually borrowed each other's strength in mid-air, and jumped directly onto the wild wolf's body, accompanied by a whimper, and several blood holes suddenly appeared from the wild wolf's body.
Tearing screams, roars, loud and loud, between the flickering cold, the smell of blood suddenly emerged, a fierce wolf, actually in the entanglement was bitten off the throat alive, with the death of his companion, and the other, also lost the courage to continue, after paying a huge injury, quickly fled. The battle ended with a great victory for the Squirrel.
After breaking away from the battle, the squirrels immediately regained their playful appearance, and their big smart eyes looked around vigilantly, but the supple fur stained with blood looked very strange at the moment.
"The strange beasts in this mountain, don't judge them by their appearance, otherwise, you won't know how they died. Wei Entropy whispered meaningfully to Wu Wei, the latter at this moment was also quite touched, looking at Li Yi and Zhou Yi who were snickering over there, no matter who they were, they kicked hard towards their buttocks.
Fuyuan Mountain, the third largest mountain belonging to Qingyuan Town, is hundreds of miles in radius, surrounded by clouds and mist, full of fairy energy, rich in resources, the variety of herbs in the mountain is the most compared to the other two mountains, and there are not a few natural and fierce beasts, of course, compared to the other two mountains occupied by the strange beasts and even the mountain gods all year round, it is much safer.
The crowd stared closely at the squirrels feasting not far from the tree, and they would not risk dragging the carcass of the beast back to their nest unless it was winter, as the risk of exposure would be too great.
More often than not, they choose to eat on the spot, and quickly, like gobbling up the flesh and blood, only the leading squirrel, even at the moment of eating, is still in an extremely vigilant state.
A moment later, with the sound of chewing over, the leading squirrel glanced in the direction where Wu Wei and the others were hiding, and then flew out with the remaining few and disappeared among the grass like a phantom.
"This little thing, it seems to have spotted us. Zhou Yi pouted, jumped down from between the bushes, shook the leaves on his body, and said helplessly, "The last few times, I almost couldn't catch up with him." ”
"Fortunately, with Brother Wei Entropy's rich experience, I won't be dumped by this little rabbit. ”
Smiling slightly, Wei Entropy didn't say a word, then jumped down, took out a dagger that flashed with cold light, and started to peel off the wolf's claws.
Wu Wei also followed, in this group of people, he is a novice, so he must be familiar with the whole process as soon as possible, this beast wolf, in addition to the beast claws, the fur on its back is also quite valuable, if it is not damaged, it can be sold at a high price in the fur dealer. Only the meat of the wild wolf, the practical value is much lower, fishy and hard, a lot of muscles, unless it is a special situation, otherwise in the case of abundant food, it is really not the best choice to make food, under the command of Wei Entropy, Wu Wei used the newly bought dagger, carefully cut it according to the steps, and after a while, the hands were stained with fishy blood.
"It's good to get used to it," looking at Wu Wei, who was a little out of breath, Wei Entropy smiled, since he led the team, he has seen many novices, Wu Wei's performance this time, in his opinion, is not bad.
"Head, it's back. Just when everyone was finished, two cyan whirling shadows stood beside everyone, slowly showing their figures, the people who came were Wei Entropy's subordinates Wei Xuan and the two, the blood on the right hand was dripping with blood, it was the beast claw cut from the body of the wild wolf that escaped before, with their strength, it was obviously not difficult to catch a seriously injured wild wolf.
"With the addition of these two, there is still about half of the order of thirty, and I believe that it should be completed by the time we get to the herb field. After cleaning the two beast claws and putting them in the package, Wei Entropy's face was filled with joy.
The wild wolf, a prey, is usually not easy to find if it is not for the group, but within half a day of entering the mountain, half of the commission has been completed, in Wei Entropy's opinion, it seems that this trip has the favor of God.
It will take about a day to get to the herb field from the mountain, and you will be able to reach your destination after tomorrow morning. Wu Wei and others' entrusted task is the fire dragon simmering grass, fifty copies, the fire dragon simmering grass is mainly used for the treatment of burn medicine, although it is also distributed in the periphery of this mountain, but its distribution will be relatively scattered, and in the interior of this Fuyuan Mountain, the experienced Wei Entropy knows that there is a relatively suitable gathering place.
Several figures rose from the flat ground, quickly merged into the dense forest, turned into Dao light and shadow, and flew away, for a while, startled countless birds and beasts.
After walking through for several hours without stopping, Wei Entropy's footsteps paused slightly, the tip of his right finger was raised upward, and his two fingers waved slightly, and at the moment when this finger appeared, everyone's figures stopped, and stood on the nearest tree trunk beside him, Wei Xuan's feet stepped lightly on the branch, and then jumped up to the top of the highest tree like a crossbow from the string. A moment later, the cyan figure floated down from mid-air, whispering in his ear.
"There's an open space ahead for camping, and there doesn't seem to be any other beast in the vicinity. ”
Nodding slightly, Wei Entropy said in a low voice, "Wei Xuan, you pick someone to go with you to explore the surroundings and see if there are any other traces of beast hunting." The others, pack up the open space in front of you and prepare to set up camp!"
"Yes," the answer sounded solemnly.
