Chapter 10: The Final Blow
The sun rises and the moon sets, time flies, and the days pass like this.
Wu Ji has been joining the hunting team for seven days.
Follow Zhang Dadao every day, learn the knowledge of survival in the wild, the tricks of killing monsters, the skills of defending the village, kill all kinds of beasts, observe the battles between veteran members and monsters, and gradually become a qualified hunting team.
On this day, Wu Ji's long-awaited day of fighting against demon beasts has finally arrived.
During yesterday's patrol, a member of the team accidentally found a demon beast infected by demonic energy in a pond in the southwest of the village.
The monster beast that was discovered was a monster toad.
The strength of the toad is very low, so the chance of being infected by the demon qi is very small. But because the overall number of toads is very large, there are always a few toads that are infected into monsters every year.
Also because the toad's strength is low and it has just been infected, Zhang Dadao decided to let Wu Ji, a newcomer, participate in the battle to exterminate the demon beast.
Wu Ji was quite excited, not only because of the first time he fought with a demon beast, but also because of the task of the system.
He still remembers the task given by the system, kill a demon beast, and reward a little internal strength!
This time I had a chance!
The pond where the monster hides is about an acre in size, a little higher in the west, the bottom and edge of the pond are stones, and there is even a deeper pit at the bottom that protrudes into the mountain, and the east is a little lower, and the edge is already dirt. There are a lot of reeds and messy aquatic plants growing in the pond, as well as some loaches, small fish, toads and the like.
The monster toad was hiding in this pond. Maybe it's because it's just been infected by demonic energy, and it hasn't followed its popularity to attack people in the village for the time being.
But the hunting team members are more experienced, and when they passed by here yesterday, they happened to encounter this monster toad coming out to hunt cauliflower snakes, and they found out.
Captain Zhang came over with seven or eight people, weapons, fishing nets, etc.
The hunting team surrounded the pond.
Zhang Dadao began to command the dispatch.
First of all, let people cover the entire pond with a large fishing net that has been prepared, and the patrolmen standing on the shore press the corners of the fishing nets tightly.
Then Captain Zhang threw a bloody chicken in the middle of the net. The chicken was not dead yet, bleeding and fluttering.
Demon beasts are very blood-hungry and have a great demand for meat, so it is very useful to tempt them with blood-drenched chickens.
Sure enough, soon there were streams of water gushing out from the depths of the pond, as if a behemoth was about to rush out of the water.
In the end, it came out, and it was a toad, but it was very large, the size of a basin, and the color was very bright, not only all the blue-black of the usual toad, but also the red back and yellow edges.
Wu Ji's eyes are also relatively sharp, and he can see that the toad's claws have even mutated and grown hard and sharp nails!
As soon as the toad appeared, it jumped towards the bloody chicken.
As soon as he got closer, he saw its big mouth, and a tongue popped out like a soft whip, quickly curling the chicken, and wanted to retract.
It's a pity that the toad is under the fishing net and the chicken is above the fishing net, so the toad didn't get what he wanted.
At this moment, a very good hunter with a bow and arrow quickly shot an arrow at the toad!
"Whew!"
The fine iron arrow accurately hit the toad's back, but unfortunately it didn't go much deeper, and the arrow didn't completely penetrate the toad's back!
The toad received the arrow, and seemed to be furious in pain, and jumped towards the archer, but halfway through the jump was stopped by the fishing net!
I saw the toad's mouth stick out its tongue again, but this time it was like a sharp sword, cutting the rope above the fishing net at once!
But a team member who was close to it reacted very quickly, and immediately stabbed the toad in the body, not only pulling a big hole in it, but also knocking the toad away!
The toad fell somewhere else, and the net in that place was not broken, so when the toad jumped up again, it was caught in the net again!
At the same time, the patrollers who approached it, shot again.
In this way, the demon beast toad and different team members took turns fighting, although a fishing net was completely destroyed, and he was also seriously injured and drenched in blood.
In fact, this toad is not as good as the previous zebra demon beast in terms of absolute strength, but it lives in the water and is not easy to kill, so it is a little troublesome.
Wu Ji stared at the toad tightly, thinking about giving it a final blow.
I saw that the seriously injured toad wanted to escape from here, and jumped and attacked in one direction.
After all, it was a demon beast, and after being stabbed, it really jumped out of the encirclement of the team members!
Everyone hurriedly chased after it, but fortunately, the speed of the seriously injured toad was no longer fast, and a team member who used a spear found the opportunity, and a shot penetrated the belly and was nailed to the ground!
Now the toad will definitely die.
The crowd also breathed a sigh of relief.
At this moment, Wu Ji suddenly rushed forward and stabbed the toad's head with a shot, directly hitting the head!
“......”
The crowd glanced at him.
But everyone didn't say much.
After all, most newcomers who face monsters for the first time will have various unstable emotions such as fear, nervousness, excitement, and snatching and killing monsters.
It's all a trivial matter, and if you see more in the future, you will be able to deal with it calmly.
The moment Wu Ji gave the demon beast a headshot, he heard the system prompt that the task was completed!
So the basic internal strength has risen a little!
Now there are three points of internal force!
When I first came out of cultivation, I practiced a little bit these days, and with a good foundation, I practiced a little more. Headshot the toad and add a little more!
Wu Ji happily followed everyone back to the village, and then divided the meat lively.
Every time the hunting team comes back from killing the monster, the people who participate in the killing of the monster first divide some meat, and keep the rest as the food of the hunting team, and everyone eats together.
If it is an ordinary beast that is hunted back, it will be distributed to the training ground as food, and a part will be distributed to ordinary villagers during the New Year's Festival.
After dividing the toad meat, their team's hunting mission for today is considered complete, and they can go home.
When he entered the gate of his yard, Wu Ji shouted: "Mother, I participated in killing demon beasts today!"
Wu Jiniang's voice immediately came from the room: "You're not hurt, are you?"
Saying that, the person also came out, looked at Wu Ji from top to bottom, and found that it was intact, so he smiled happily: "My son is amazing, just become a martial artist for a few days, and you can kill demon beasts!"
Wu Ji raised his hand and smiled: "I also got a piece of demon beast meat, so I brought it back, and I will cook it and eat it later." ”
Wu Li took it, nodded and smiled: "Okay, mother, I'll do it." By the way, there is something at home today, which has something to do with you, so let's come into the house. ”
Wu Ji was a little confused: "It has something to do with me, what's the matter?"
But his mother had already turned and entered the stove house.
Wu Ji had no choice but to walk into the hall by himself.
After entering, I found that in addition to my father, there were two more people.
It's all from the same village, and even though the village is relatively large, you can recognize who is who. Wu Ji recognized it at first sight, these two people were Xu Xiaotian's parents.
Wu Dashi saw Wu Ji, called him over, patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Baby, you are blessed! I have discussed with your Uncle Duan in the past few days, and I have agreed that you and Xu Xiaotian's family affair has been decided." When Xiao Tian is fifteen years old, she will marry her!"
"What?
Although I know this world, a girl who is thirteen years old and cardamom means that she can be said to be a person, and fifteen years old and Lu means that she can get married.
However, I haven't experienced it! Thoughts and emotions are mostly influenced by the values on the earth!
Wu Dashi looked at Wu Ji's expression and was furious: "What's the matter with the kid? Don't we still know about the matter between you and Xiao Tian? Xiao Tian is such a good girl, how can you still not want to?"
Xu Duan's and his wife's faces also became a little bad.
After all, Wu Ji, what kind of attitude do you have? Don't you want to marry? Then what kind of grove do you go to with my daughter at night?
