Chapter 14: Luan Ming and the Wolf Howl

Mu Feng and Yuan Qingshan went out of the city together, only to see Liu Xiaoxi, Yuan Qinglei and more than a dozen strong men dressed as merchants and servants. Yuan Qingshan stepped forward to salute. And introduce Mu Feng to everyone. Liu Xiaoxi looked at Mu Feng carefully, only to see that Mu Feng had beautiful eyebrows and a good temperament, and looked at everyone calmly and with a smile. Liu Xiaoxi asked, "Young man, I have you today." I'll give you a sign to play with. ”

Hand over Mu Feng a sign. Mu Feng didn't know what that brand was, he looked at it casually, and saw that the brand was like an ordinary oval leaf, with the word "Feng" on the front and the word "Fallen Leaf City" on the back, he didn't know what it meant, but he didn't know how to excuse it. Yuan Qingshan next to him was surprised and inexplicable, and Yuan Qinglei also had a trace of surprise in his eyes.

As for the others, they all looked at the sign in Mu Feng's hand. Mu Feng was also confused: "Great Commander, this..." Liu Xiaoxi said with a smile: "It's just a brand, I still have a lot of it, don't be polite if you take it." Liu Xiaoxi said this, as if this brand is not a big deal, you can give it to whoever you want, that is, it is just a general meeting gift. Mu Feng was a little embarrassed to refuse, after all, others repeatedly said that they were given to him. In the end, I have to thank the Grand Commander. Yuan Qingshan retracted his surprised expression and looked at Mu Feng, with joy and envy in his eyes. Originally, Yuan Qingshan also wanted to go to investigate with Yuan Qinglei, but his injuries were not healed and he was not suitable for long-distance travel, so he had to give up.

Mu Feng took Liu Xiaoxi to walk slowly along the road he came, he used to carry Yuan Qingshan on his back and had no time to observe the flowers and plants on the road, but this time he finally had time to take a closer look. I saw Mu Feng squatting in front of a grass or a flower on both sides of the road from time to time, touching it with his hands, smelling it with his nose, or simply tearing off a small piece and chewing it in his mouth. may be because the taste of some flowers and plants is too difficult to drink, Mu Feng either distorts his facial features or smacks his lips. Either keep spitting out the flowers and plants in your mouth, or keep pouring water into your mouth.

Although Mu Feng seemed to be extremely uncomfortable in the eyes of the people accompanying him, Mu Feng always smiled afterwards and seemed to have no memory. Liu Xiaoxi put on the style of a rich medicine merchant along the way, as if he didn't care about anything, but when he saw Mu Feng being funny again and again, the more he looked at it, the happier he became, and finally looked at Mu Feng as if he was looking at his future son-in-law, and he was extremely satisfied, so he just stepped forward to ask Mu Feng how old he was, but he had been married.

Set out in the morning, traveled most of the way, and when it was nearly evening, Liu Xiaoxi ordered to find a suitable place to camp for the night. Then a few men set up tents that they carried with them. Judging by their proficiency, they know that there are many such things. During this period, a few other people peeled and washed the prey they hunted during the day, sprinkled with their own salt sand, and prepared to light a fire and barbecue.

Mu Feng walked over and smeared some green residue on the meat of a few rabbits, looking like they were freshly made. Then he took it and roasted it, and the dregs were the herbs he had collected during his journey. These residues have a spicy taste and can prevent the cold from entering the body at night. Liu Xiaoxi walked around the campsite, as if looking around. The Sunset Forest is divided into five zones: Eastern, Western, Southern, Northern, and Central. This classification is based on the orientation and the type of vegetation in the forest.

Until now, few people have a very detailed understanding of the Sunset Forest. Everything in the world has endless legends and rumors as long as it can be called a big word. Sunset Forest is no exception, there are all kinds of gods, demons and monsters, of course, these are just rumors, and they are only the legends of a few people. Legend has it that the eastern part of the Sunset Forest is close to the sea, where the mountains are undulating, and the mountains and rivers are interspersed, and there are dragons in the mountains and rivers, and there is a place where the legendary dragons live.

As for the south, it is the area of most human activities, of course, the area of human activities is not limited to the south, after all, the center of the continent is the most prosperous capital of human beings, and the Sunset Forest is just a larger part of all the forests on the continent. It is also rumored that there are elves in the Sunset Forest, and of course they are also humanoid creatures, who are said to live in the middle of the forest and claim to be slaves of nature.

There are also rumors that there is a big demon god in the west of the Sunset Forest, who is three feet long, with a fork halberd in his hand, and has the power of ten thousand jun when he moves. Those who saw it were all frightened. The northern part of the Sunset Forest is adjacent to the Wind and Snow Capital, where the tall coniferous vegetation makes it difficult for people to see animals in the snow, but the people who live there and some who know the most will be able to discover the secrets of the snow and ice.

Liu Xiaoxi thought about the legends of the sunset forest that he had heard, and couldn't help but become more and more in awe of this piece of heaven and earth: the world is so big, there are no wonders, and how small and ignorant he is. Let's just say that when I was practicing alone in this sunset forest, I had encountered a lot of things beyond my knowledge, didn't my dead ghost master force himself to apprentice in this sunset forest, and forced himself to tie up his beard? Uh, no, that's the same as not wearing pants.

Liu Xiaoxi looked up, and through the gap between the leaves, he saw some stars. Slowly turning back to the camp, as soon as I approached the fire, I smelled a scent. It was Mu Feng roasting rabbit meat. Swallowing his saliva, he walked up to Mu Feng and saw that the rabbit meat was already golden in color, and the rabbit meat was not tested with an open flame, but slowly roasted with a charcoal fire that was about to burn. During this period, the grease melted and dripped on the charcoal fire, and there was a stinging sound.

Liu Xiaoxi said to Mu Feng: "Brother Mu Feng will give me some and let me taste it." Mu Feng was originally concentrating on the barbecue, but when he heard the voice, he looked up and saw that it was Commander Liu, and smiled slightly. Picked up the dagger he brought, cut off the roasted rabbit legs, and handed it to Liu Xiaoxi. Then he took some of it and sent it to Yuan Qinglei. The other people who accompanied him came over to Mu Feng and asked for some spicy herbs, which were concocted in the same way.

Everyone gathered around the fire to talk and laugh, and from time to time there was laughter and scolding. Except for the bustle here, the rest of the forest was quiet as usual, and an owl stared at the eyes of the gods, motionless, and not sleepy, as if ready to wait for an opportunity. There are also other birds that change with the moonlight and the leaves are blown by the wind, playing lullaby for other sleeping animals in the forest.

Nothing seems to be out of the ordinary. Just sleep and sleep, play and play. Time passed secretly, the moon had passed in the middle of the sky, and then looked at the place where Mu Feng and they camped, except for the crackling sound from time to time in the bonfire, the others had already fallen asleep, Liu Xiaoxi and Yuan Qinglei were meditating in the simple wooden house, Mu Feng found a baked ground by the bonfire, spread a cloak and clothes and slept, it seemed that there were no nightmares or dreams.

Suddenly, there was an unusual wolf howl in the distance, Mu Feng opened his eyes, rolled his eyes, and then closed his eyes and continued to sleep. Liu Xiaoxi frowned slightly, but did not open his eyes and continued to meditate. Yuan Qinglei got up and came to the bonfire, looked at his sleeping subordinates, walked out of the camp, and didn't know where he went. It didn't take long for me to return to the camp and sleep with everyone by the campfire.

The sun rises in the east, driving away the darkness and gradually dispelling the morning mist. The early birds in the forest start a new day, and the sun shines through the layers of leaves and shines on the moss with dewdrops, making people feel very fresh and clean. The air was moist and sweet, and it was a gift from the forest. Everyone packed up, put the dry food they carried with them in the water, passed the morning, and set off on their way.

On the road, Mu Feng continued to analyze the herbs as before, looking for various medicinal materials that had matured. In the middle of the day, Mu Feng took Liu Xiaoxi and them to their destination. It is vaguely visible that people have stopped to rest. Mu Feng said: "This is the place where I first met Brother Qingshan to rest together, and there is a place where hemostatic grass grows, which is the place where I found Brother Qingshan." Liu Xiaoxi: "Brother Mufeng, thank you very much." After saying that, with a wave of his hand, he saw the men who had come all the way to pretend to be servants and a few rabbits fell and floated into the forest without a trace.

Yuan Qinglei said to Liu Xiaoxi: "The wolf howled in the middle of the night last night, it was very abnormal, I will go and see it too." Liu Xiaoxi thought for a while and said, "Go and go back quickly." Yuan Qinglei Liu Xiaoxi turned to Mu Feng and said, "Brother, please roast a few more rabbits to eat, okay?" After Mu Feng hummed, he looked around, and then rose vertically, and flew into the mountains and forests after a while.

Liu Xiaoxi felt very surprised, they didn't know that Mu Feng still had such skills, seeing that he had jumped a few miles away, at least he had reached the realm of bone change. Originally, Liu Xiaoxi was going to catch a few rabbits by himself, and he wanted to eat rabbit meat, so he couldn't bother others to do it. But Mu Feng didn't think about it so much, and he didn't care about anything. Such a state of mind is like a child, but it is also the open-mindedness of a wise man. About half a cup of tea, Mu Feng carried two rabbits and flew back. A fire has already started in Liu Xiaoxi. After dealing with it, he and Mu Feng took a rabbit and sat by the fire to roast it. "I heard Qing Lei say that you know how to refine medicine, and who did you learn it?" asked Liu Xiaoxi.

Mu Feng said: "A little bit, I was raised by my grandfather, my grandfather is our doctor there, grandpa knows everything, what medicinal materials are there, when they are ripe, how to pick, how to deal with them, etc." He is also very good at seeing a doctor, gold injuries, poisoning, and cold and heat at all four o'clock to get rid of the disease. All I know is taught by my grandfather, refining medicine, I will only prepare some hemostatic powder, bone-setting pills, tonic pills or something. ”

After Mu Feng finished speaking, he seemed to feel that he knew too little, and his face was a little blushing. After Liu Xiaoxi heard what Mu Feng said, he felt that it was nothing. Many pharmacists do this, and they can't help but feel that they are expecting too much. But after thinking about it, he felt that something was wrong, he had seen Yuan Qingshan's injury, although the injury was not as important as the point, but at first glance, his complexion must have lost too much blood, and his vitality was greatly damaged. But yesterday when I went out of the city to see the green mountains, although I walked a little frivolous, it was also a tiger, like a sign of a serious illness.

Thinking of this, Liu Xiaoxi took out a myelin-washing pill and asked Mu Feng to identify the ingredients. Mu Feng took it in his hand, sniffed the smell again, and said: "This elixir, the color is bright yellow, the smell is fragrant, the smell is refreshing, it seems to have the effect of harmonizing the five qi and dredging the tendons." However, ordinary people must take it in a measured amount, and as for those who are strong and strong, if it is equipped with the technique of guidance, it will be beneficial and harmless. However, you don't have a good effect on Brother Liu, you are in harmony with your spirits and qi, and you already have the realm of the five qi dynasties. ”

After listening to Mu Feng, Liu Xiaoxi nodded and said, "You're right, have you seen this kind of pill before?" Mu Feng took the pill and said while studying: "I saw it for the first time today, this pill contains a variety of important medicinal materials, such as ginseng, Mingxin grass, and ......" Mu Feng said to himself, sometimes frowning, carefully identifying. The look of surprise on Liu Xiaoxi's face grew stronger and stronger. After Mu Feng finished speaking, he found that Liu Xiaoxi was looking at him in a daze, and Mu Feng asked puzzledly, "What's wrong?" Oh, the pill will be returned to you. He handed the pill to Liu Xiaoxi.

Liu Xiaoxi came back to his senses and said, "This pill has been given to you, and I will take you to meet someone when I go back." This time it was Mu Feng's turn: Brother Liu said that the pill was given to me? looked at the pill in his hand and said, "This is not good, I don't have anything to give you." Liu Xiaoxi glanced at Mu Feng disdainfully and said, "I have a lot of pills, just give me the reward for roasting rabbit meat." ”

Mu Feng raised his eyebrows: "Thank you, Commander, or I'll go and catch a few rabbits for you to roast and eat." As he spoke, he looked around again to catch the hare, and was just about to leave. Liu Xiaoxi said: "I'm not busy with this, I'll talk about it when I have a chance later, now I'm full." When that's over, I'll take you to meet someone, who might be of great help to you. Mu Feng then remembered that Brother Liu said just now that he was going to take him to meet someone, Mu Feng asked, "Who?" Liu Xiaoxi's eyes flashed with a hint of reverence and said: "This old man is the medicine king of my Sunset City, and there are countless people in one life. Then he sighed: "It's a pity that his old man is coming to an end." ”

Mu Feng listened to Liu Xiaoxi looking into the distance, as if he was feeling sorry for the old man he just mentioned. Mu Feng happily clenched his fists and said, "Thank you, Brother Liu, when the time comes, please ask Brother Liu to introduce me to meet that masterful old man." Mu Feng said this, as if it was a great honor to meet the old man, and he never asked why he wanted to meet the old man mentioned, which made Liu Xiaoxi feel that Mu Feng trusted him very much. Liu Xiaoxi said boldly: "Okay! ”

At this moment, a wolf howl came from afar, making people in a trance, as if they felt a wolf king roaring in the moonlight, summoning his subordinates. Liu Xiaoxi instantly looked at the place where the howling sound came from, his eyes were sharp, and his face was serious. Mu Feng also frowned and looked into the distance, wondering why the wolf howled during the day, and the sound spread to the four wilds. The whistling continued for two or three minutes before fading away. Liu Xiaoxi also frowned, as if she was worried about something. About a quarter of an hour later, there was a noise in the woods, and Yuan Qinglei and his subordinates who had gone out to investigate returned. Liu Xiaoxi was just about to say something, when suddenly there was a chirping like a phoenix crying in the distance, the voice was crisp and slightly immature, breaking through the clear sky.
