Chapter 8 [Mountain Ghosts]

There were dark clouds in the hazy sky, and with a burst of thunder, a drop of rain finally jumped down from the clouds and fell crumblingly in front of Yu Ge in the whirring wind.

At this time, Yu Ge was crawling in a lush grass, staring intently at a drinking elk in a puddle not far away, like a hunting leopard.

This was the prey he had been staring at for a long time, and he didn't want to let it go.

It's just that the weather makes him quite unhappy, if it rains and the ground is wet, obviously his movement will be restricted, maybe a negligence will let the prey escape.

What's more, in such a dangerous world, the dense clouds naturally urge the arrival of the night, and the danger in the darkness of the night is something that no hunter wants to face.

The elk was still drinking with its head down, its ears pricked up and looking around alertly, ready to run away in the face of possible danger.

Yu Ge thought that he couldn't run, so the position he was lying on was the only way for the elk, waiting for the elk's self-defeat.

If he had before, he might not have hunted such a fast prey so directly, but dug a trap and waited patiently for the prey to take the bait.

But now that he had the Black Iron Dagger, he decided to swell it once.

A few more drops of rain fell, and the elk seemed to have had enough, raised its mouth and took a bite of the bright green weeds at the water's edge, chewed it in its mouth, and then turned around and walked back leisurely.

It is this direction in which Yu Ge is hiding.

Seeing the prey coming, Yu Ge suddenly slowed down his breathing, and even the sound of breathing became vague, and when the elk was just a few steps away from him, he directly held his breath.

It's close!

One-step.

Two steps.

Now is the time!

In an instant, Yu Ge leaped up from the grass, like an arrow from the string, and the cold light in his hand was like electricity, stabbing the ground between the elk's legs.

Fierce and unsparing!

The abrupt human frightened the elk, and it ran away, but it directly hit the dagger in Yu Sing.

At that moment, the elk's eyes were shocked, he felt a chill under his crotch, a sharp pain hit, and then he fell to the ground and kicked his legs and foamed at the mouth.

Yu Ge stepped forward to make up for it again, and after a while, he was completely lost.

Looking at the black iron dagger that was still stained with blood, Yu Ge washed it again and again in the puddle with some disgust, and did not withdraw the scabbard until there was no trace of blood.

Such an elk with an intact scalp can still be sold for a good price.

Walking back to the elk, Yu Ge nodded with satisfaction, and suddenly felt a thrill behind him, as if a terrifying aura was permeating.

So turning back, he saw that in the depths of the forest, in the dark shadows under the dark clouds, there was a strange mist floating one person high, floating leisurely.

There seemed to be a pair of invisible eyes staring at him in the mist.

Mountain ghosts!

A word popped up in my head.

Yu Ge's back suddenly felt cold.

The mountain ghost is the lowest-level existence of all demons and ghosts, and it is said that some corpses are formed by condensing yin qi all year round, although it is the lowest, it is not something that he can resist now.

It's just that this thing rarely appears during the day, and even if it does, it's in the majestic green mountains where the yin qi is heavier.

The inhabitants of this wooded town have already figured it out, except for a few wild beasts hurting people, but nothing else has happened, but they didn't expect to suddenly see it here this time.

Zhao Ziming once told him what to do when he encountered a mountain ghost in the wild, that is, he ran away without caring about anything!

Yu Ge immediately made a decision, picked up the elk carcass on the ground and galloped away, while observing the movement behind with his eyes.

Now the forest is not far from the wilderness outside, and it was only a moment before Yu Ge rushed out, and when he looked back, there was still no trace of the mountain ghost.

Now is not the time to relax, Yu Ge took a few breaths, and then carried the elk on his shoulders and ran towards the town.

The low wall of blood-colored cinnabar mixed with stains came into view, and he was relieved when he saw the stone monument two feet high erected at the entrance of the town.

The town's protection is still a little, and that thing won't chase in, but when I think of my previous experience, I can't help but feel a chill in my heart.

An ordinary person, facing a mountain ghost, has no chance to fight at all.

At this time, a spring rain surged down, and the clouds rolled in, shrouding the sky in the dim sky, and the boundless chill in the darkness began to surge along with the red mist at the end of the distant mountains.

Yu Ge ran into the town, the world where the house was isolated, and at this time he also found that the change in the stars in his mind seemed to have an achievement completed.

He didn't rush to pick it up, for fear of traveling to something strange, and planned to dispose of the elk on his shoulder first.

"Xiao Yu has gained a lot today, he actually caught an elk,"

Lao Luo, who was full of beards in the shop, saw Yu Ge and asked him to put the elk on the ground with a smile, then squatted down and began to look at it.

After looking at it, he sighed lightly, "Hey, this elk skin is so well preserved, your kid's hunting ability has improved!" ”

Lao Luo was a little surprised, such a complete skin is rare, after all, this thing runs fast and is difficult to catch, almost all of them rely on traps, and falling into traps will inevitably hurt, but it is rare to maintain such integrity.

In any case, this way he can sell it for a good price from the merchants from Shanglin City.

Looking at the carcass of the elk, Lao Luo nodded with satisfaction, his eyes inadvertently swept over the back half of the elk, and suddenly paused in a certain position, and his face suddenly became strange.

"This place?"

Yu Ge followed Lao Luo's line of sight and suddenly understood, "What? Does this affect the appearance?"

"It doesn't matter."

After negotiating the price with Lao Luo, Yu Ge left in his rather strange gaze.

Achievement [is a ruthless person]

Completion Condition: Three attempts on the verge of death, 3/3 of the current progress.

Reward: Unknown, claimable.

[Claim Reward] to gain 5% agility.

As soon as he returned home, Yu Ge couldn't wait to receive the reward, but found that this reward was different from the last time, and it seemed to be a physical bonus.

Agility should be considered speed, and the body's reflexes, but it's not clear what the concept of this 5% enhancement is.

But this is not bad, after all, its own strength is really powerful, and other things are foreign things after all.

Just thinking about it, Yu Ge felt his blood suddenly boiling, a slight flow of heat swept through, and then the muscles of various parts of his body ached, as if the fatigue after exercise suddenly swept over.

It's just that this feeling comes and goes quickly, and it disappears without a trace in an instant.

Yu Ge raised his arm and lifted the sleeves of his shirt, which didn't seem to have changed much, and pinched the muscles of his arms and legs, vaguely feeling as if he had condensed a little.

At this time, there was a fly staring at the wooden table, Yu Ge grabbed it with his hand, and pinched it in the palm of his hand, it didn't seem to be so simple and random to catch flies with bare hands like this before, and there were still changes.

Is this to make yourself run faster and better to die?

Yu Ge couldn't help but think of the shiny boning knife in Boss Zhao's hand.

It's just that why do you think of Boss Zhao again?
