Chapter 7 Hunting
Meng Xiaoyan said the matter simply, and Song Mei understood what was going on. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info What she feared happened anyway. For the whole fifteen years, every year of sacrifice, almost all of them were the son comforting the disappointed himself, and now there was only one last chance left, and the strong son's heart also fluctuated. She understands her son's thoughts now, and she knows what he is worried about. For the sake of her son's inability to open the martial spirit, she secretly didn't know how many tears she shed. Sooner or later, it will come, just let fate arrange it.
"Xiao Yan, just listen to the arrangement of the Elders, you have to protect your brother Haotian. ”
"Aunt Song, I will try my best to protect my brother. ”
Meng Xiaoyan sat for a while and left, she wanted to talk to Meng Haotian to see if she could untie his heart knot, and by the way, explain the precautions for this hunt. She knew where Meng Haotian was, and after every sacrifice, she would definitely be able to find him by the small river behind Zhuangzi.
The first snow of autumn had not yet completely melted, and as far as the eye could see, a thin layer of white snow, like a huge soft woolen blanket, covered the vast desert wasteland and mountains, shining with a cold silver light.
The river flows quietly, like a girl who has just woken up, stretching her lazy waist and hugging Mengjiazhuang. Meng Haotian sat on the stone slab by the river, looking into the distance. In the upper reaches of the river, there is a small waterfall pouring down, and a thin mist floats in the middle of the mountain, like a fairyland.
In the past fifteen years, the annual sacrifice has gradually become Meng Haotian's nightmare. At first there was confidence and hope, then anxiety, and finally all that remained was hesitation. After every sacrifice, Meng Haotian knew that his mother was secretly crying, and he comforted his mother because he was the only man in the family. He would never show uneasiness or disappointment in front of anyone, let alone cry in front of others, including his own mother. After comforting his mother, he would come here and listen quietly to the sound of the waterfall to relieve the pressure in his heart.
In this world where martial arts are respected, he has to become a strong man, so he studies hard. He has a martial soul mark, but he has not been able to open it, and slowly he has a knot in his heart, and many times he does not dare to touch it. Regarding the information about the martial soul imprint, he has seen more than anyone else, and he knows very well that if he can't open his martial soul this time, he will never have a chance. For him, such an outcome is unaffordable.
Meng Haotian couldn't help but think of the Holy Spirit Empress again. This super-strong Holy Spirit Empress has all the conditions to become a super-strong person almost as soon as she is born. He admired the Holy Spirit Empress a little, and his heart was full of envy. Meng Haotian thought that the Holy Spirit Empress was an enigmatic person.
"How did she inherit the throne of the Central Sanctuary Kingdom?"
"What strength did she rely on to unify the Desolate Realm and establish a central unified empire?"
"Why did the Seven Emperors and those strong men disappear?"
"How did the sixteen-year-old crown prince die?"
“......”
All this is a mystery! Meng Haotian could not find any clues in the historical materials of the Central Unification Empire. Although there are some fragmentary records in the wild history materials. But it is only a statement that there is such a thing, and there is no reason to check at all.
"That crown prince named Meng Haotian actually has the same name as himself!" Meng Haotian smiled bitterly. No matter how much he thought about it, he couldn't find any connection between them.
This morning, I couldn't help but express my worries to Meng Xiaoyan. Alas, after all, it was not possible to persevere to the end. Meng Haotian retracted his gaze from the distance, lowered his head slightly, and looked at the river in front of him. He felt like he was a little impulsive today. In the past ten years, he has thought about how he will face life if he can't open the martial soul mark, if it's just him, he can face it calmly. It's just that everyone pins their hopes on him, and what he can't bear is the weight of this kind of disappointed hope.
The cool autumn breeze was much lighter than in the morning, blowing slowly. Looking at the microwave river, Meng Haotian picked up a small pebble and threw it out, and the river immediately rippled in circles, and a string of silver-white splashes jumped where the stones fell. Small waves gently lap against the riverbank, "popping" sound.
In any case, since he proposed to go hunting, if the elders did not agree, then he himself went to the mountains near the village to catch some wild beasts and came back, and he was completely able to deal with ordinary wild beasts. He must contribute his own strength to this great sacrifice. He thought that by doing so, even if he couldn't open the martial soul mark, he would be able to feel a little more at ease. It should be safe near the village, and the high-level brute beasts have been killed.
At this time, Meng Haotian's face was resolute. He raised his head again and took a deep breath, feeling a coolness in his chest, which made him feel very refreshed.
"Brother, I've finally found you. Meng Xiaoyan came over, she looked at Meng Haotian quietly, and said, "Are you okay?"
"Sister, I'm fine, don't worry. Meng Haotian turned his head to look at Meng Xiaoyan.
"The Council of Elders has agreed to your participation in the hunt. The elders think that you have grown up and believe in your strength, and think that it is a good exercise to let you participate in the hunt. Meng Xiaoyan never hit this younger brother's self-confidence.
"Thank you, sister!" Meng Haotian was very happy, even a little excited, he had been looking forward to this day for a long time. Meng Xiaoyan has been participating in hunting since she was twelve years old, and every time he sees Meng Xiaoyan go out hunting with her father, he doesn't know how envious he is.
"Brother, hunting is a very dangerous thing, and safety is the most important thing. Every year in the village, there will be people who sacrifice for hunting, so don't be careless. Meng Xiaoyan kept giving Meng Haotian a vaccination, she paused, and then said, "Although the elders agree to let you participate in the hunt, you must pay attention to your own safety according to the requirements of the elders. ”
"I will, sister. Meng Haotian knew that his safety was even more important than this sacrifice. In the past ten years, Mengjiazhuang people have spent a lot of resources cultivating him. He just didn't understand why everyone chose him, he didn't know that he was a Thousand Bone God Body at all.
Meng Xiaoyan explained the matters to be paid attention to in hunting, and explained to Meng Haotian very patiently and specifically.
"Go back, Aunt Song is in a hurry at home. Three days later, you're going to go hunting, and you use this time to get your preparations ready. Meng Xiaoyan gently pulled Meng Haotian up and said softly.
Meng Haotian and Meng Xiaoyan walked side by side, he enjoyed it very much. I don't know when it started, he longed for Meng Xiaoyan to stay by his side more, and he liked to smell her.
Meng Haotian insisted on sending Meng Xiaoyan home before he was willing to go back. For such things, Meng Xiaoyan always follows him.
"The young master is back, and the lady is waiting for you in the front hall. Yahuan Xiaoshuang greeted him.
"Mother, I'm back. Meng Haotian walked very meekly to his mother's side and stood.
"Fan'er, you sit down, Mother has something to say to you. Song Mei said softly to Meng Haotian.
Meng Haotian sat next to his mother, and Xiaoyun brought the tea.
"This time the Council of Elders decided to take you on a hunt, Mother listened to your sister-in-law, but hunting is very dangerous. Have you really figured it out?" Song Mei tried to change her son's mind.
"Mother, my son has thought clearly, this hunt will definitely not disappoint his mother, you can rest assured. ”
Her son's words made Song Mei even more worried. Seeing that she couldn't change her son's mind, she asked Yahuan Chunmei to go to the back room and pick up a box and come out. She opened the box and pulled out a piece of soft armor.
"Tian'er, this is the soft armor that your grandfather gave to your mother, and you wore it on your body when you went hunting this time. This is the lower-level defense equipment of the second grade of Shenwu, which should be able to play a certain protective role. Song Mei handed the soft armor to Meng Haotian.
"Thank you, mother!" Meng Haotian took the soft armor and looked at it carefully. Shenwu-level equipment, whether it is weapons or defensive armor, is divided according to the grade, and the higher the grade, the more powerful. Each grade is divided into three grades: upper, middle and lower. As long as it is a divine weapon, it is engraved with inscriptions, and the more inscriptions, the more precious they are, and their corresponding power will change with the number of inscriptions. Although the soft armor given to him by his mother is only a second-grade lower-level Shenwu-level equipment, it is engraved with seven inscriptions, and its defensive power will not be worse than that of ordinary Shenwu-level third-grade equipment. Such a piece of Shenwu-level equipment costs at least 30,000 silver coins. With such defensive equipment, even if he encounters a beast of the rank of a first-order beast king, he will not be able to hurt him.
Three days later, the Demon Cloud Valley, which is more than 300 miles away from Mengjiazhuang, is today's hunting ground in Mengjiazhuang. In order to take care of Meng Haotian, the hunting team did not go deep into the reckless mountains. Meng Haotian, who appeared in the hunting ground for the first time, looked quite curious. He kept looking around at the surroundings of Demon Cloud Valley.
It is surrounded by towering mountains, and the valley is densely forested with strange rocks. Not far from him was a cliff, from which a large river of turbulent water flowed, forming a curtain of huge waterfalls, which fell into the abyss with a rumbling sound, and the damp water vapor filled the entire valley.
There were two martial artists from the intermediate realm of Qin Mind standing beside Meng Haotian, and they were responsible for protecting Meng Haotian. Meng Haotian, who came to the hunting ground, put on the defensive soft armor given to him by his mother, and also put on the heart guard given to him by Meng Kun. This heart goggle is a second-grade defensive equipment of the Shenwu level, with five inscriptions, which has been worn on Meng Xiaoyan's body.
With two such treasures on his body, he was completely able to resist the attacks of second-order brute beast king level beasts, Meng Haotian's heart was full of security, and he even had the urge to fight with brute beasts. It's a pity that the two warriors around him are staring at him, and he only has the duty to guard the prey.
As soon as the hunt began, the brutes all over the valley scurried and let out all sorts of screams. The members of the hunting party kept shouting and jumping, and quickly pounced on the fleeing beasts.
There were more and more prey caught around Meng Haotian, most of them were second-order brute beasts, and there were some third-order brute beasts. The brutes had their limbs broken and chained, screaming incessantly.
The warriors of Mengjiazhuang are struggling to capture the brute beasts. The beasts that were scattered and fled for their lives scurried past Meng Haotian and them from time to time. The two warriors who protected him also caught a lot by the way.
With a "roar", the earth shook. The golden light flashed, followed by a gust of wind blowing, and on the edge of the prey circle, there was already a huge golden lynx lion king. This brute beast was about three meters tall and ten meters long, its whole body glowed with golden light, its huge eyes stared at them fiercely, and its bloody mouth let out a "roar" sound.
"Dangerous, it's a third-order Beast King level Lion King. Haotian be careful. "The combat power of the third-order Brute King level beast is equivalent to that of a martial artist in the intermediate realm of the Tengyun Realm, and none of them are opponents.
One of the martial artists guarding Meng Haotian quickly sent out a distress signal, looking very nervous. How could there be a third-order beast king level beast in this place?
They quickly dragged Meng Haotian behind them. The difference in strength is too far away, and whoever encounters it will feel fear. You must know that a fierce beast of the third-order Brute King level can compete with at least a thousand martial artists of the advanced realm of the Qin Mind Realm, and even kill them.
In about a breath, the few warriors closest to them rushed back like lightning. The first one to arrive was Meng Xiaoyan, who had always been nearby and didn't dare to go far.
Meng Xiaoyan is now a martial artist of the Great Perfection Realm of the Qin Mind Realm, since she was a child, she drank the blood of spirit beasts, took Zhu Guo and soaked in the blood bath of spirit beasts, her combat power is much stronger than that of ordinary martial artists in the Great Perfection Realm of the Qin Mind Realm, and in the face of the Golden Retriever Lynx Lion King at the level of the third-order Barbarian Beast King, she feels that she can fight.
