Section 29: Poison
As a scholar and serving the Shata family for thirty-eight years, Cangsu is well aware of the division of the power of the transcendent.
A silver-level Dou Qi cultivator, if he didn't use his Dou Qi, would be able to lift an object weighing about 350 kilograms and punch 800 kilograms, and it would not be a problem at all to confront twenty or thirty ordinary adults head-on. He has more tolerance for the environment and pain than ordinary people, but it can still be dangerous in the face of strong crossbows and strong bows.
In other words, the physical fitness of the Silver Dou Qi cultivator is still in the category of human beings, and it is bound by the structure of the human body, representing the limit of mortal physical development.
And becoming a gold-level Dou Qi cultivator, the quality of Dou Qi has been greatly improved, and this kind of Dou Qi nourishes and transforms the body, completely surpassing the limits of mortals.
Without the use of fighting spirit, the golden powerhouse can run at a speed of 120 kilometers per hour and lift a weight of about ten tons. In the face of thousands of swords-wielding troops, they can also capture the flag and fight vertically and horizontally.
Ordinary bows and crossbows, completely non-threatening. But in the face of a magical crossbow, there are still risks.
When the head sheep was fighting with the yellow algae, Cangsu saw it several times with his own eyes, and the head sheep hit the trunk of the tree, knocking down all the towering trees.
This proves that although the head sheep is only a bronze progression, when it rushes desperately, the impact force is very strong. Far bigger than the charge of an ordinary hoplite!
Silver-level Terran Douqi cultivators, relying solely on physical strength, were basically unable to resist such a charge from the head sheep.
However, the needle gold easily and naturally intercepted the head sheep who had run a long distance and was in the middle of the charge.
The power shown in this has gone beyond the realm of silver.
Therefore, Cang Xu couldn't help but guess that the needle gold had the possibility of gold fighting.
"As far as I know, the bloodline of the Hundred Needles family is not good at strength, but unique in terms of precision. ”
"If a knight has a constant support spell such as the strength of the bear, he can also do this. But the demon is forbidden here, and the constant low-level support spells should be invalid. ”
"Or have you taken any power potions?"
Eventually, Cangsu once again thought of the possibility of golden cultivation.
"If Needle Gold is really a gold-level powerhouse, with such strength and talent, the Hundred Needle Family will definitely rise again!"
Under the gaze of the beard, Needle Gold suddenly shook his arms, grasped the horns of the goat, and violently lifted the head of the goat high.
Then, he threw it hard.
The head sheep fell to the ground and struggled a few times before he got up, looking sluggish, as if he had been stunned.
Immediately, its eyes were red again, and it rushed towards the needle.
The needle gold knocked it down again, let it flutter for a while, and then threw it far away.
After a few times, the sheep's unwillingness, anger, hatred, and other emotions dissipated, and were replaced by fear and cringe at the needle.
In the end, the head sheep did not charge again, and after falling to the ground, it got up and stood still.
When Needle Gold took the initiative to walk in front of it, it let out a bleating sound, actively lowered its head, its eyes dodged, and its bleeding body trembled.
Needlegold patted its head, then touched its horns.
The head sheep was so frightened that his body shook, and he actually took the initiative to lie on the ground.
Under the gaze of many adorations, Needle Gold nodded with satisfaction and ordered: "Take it away for me, treat it a little, feed it carefully, but don't feed it enough." ”
"My lord, do you want to domesticate this head sheep into a mount?" Seeing the end of the battle, Cangsu walked over.
Needle Gold nodded, smiled and asked, "Do you think this is possible?"
"Absolutely. Cangsu smiled and affirmed, "As far as I know, the most extensive mount on the Dwarf Continent is the goat. Goats are able to trek through the mountains and mountains with great skill. Wild one-year-old goats can climb snow-covered rocks with their skillful climbing skills, crossing many insurmountable obstacles along the way. It's just that I don't know exactly how to domesticate it. ”
Needle Gold nodded, and asked again: "Among the group of people who survived the Pig Kiss, are there any animal trainers?"
Cang Xu shook his head: "It doesn't seem to be." ”
"It's okay, the Pig Kiss doesn't have it, can't you find it in Baisha City?"
In this battle, he got what he wanted.
Conquering the head sheep and domesticating it as a mount in the future is only a minor part of this harvest.
The point is that the needle gold showed its strength in full view. Let the whole exploration team see his strength.
His influence on this group of personnel has been greatly improved.
The lesson of the yellow algae's escape and betrayal is enough once.
Needle Gold has kept the family motto of the Baizhen family in mind, and put the yellow algae under his nose, on the one hand, he squeezes his value, and on the other hand, he uses him to remind himself at all times - how to become a qualified leader.
Looking around, Needle Gold sighed sincerely: "This is a treasure land!"
Truth be told, it was the first time he had discovered such a paradise on this island.
When it came time to actually get started, the exploration team was pleasantly surprised to find that the size of the flock here far exceeded the results of previous reconnaissance.
I don't know why, the flock here is simply overflowing.
There are several large flocks of more than 1,000 heads. There are even more sheep in the hundreds of heads, and it is such a flock of goats that Needle Gold is hunting this time.
The explorers begin to deal with the dead goats.
First, bloodletting, skinning, and evisceration were removed, followed by the cutting of the mutton by some and the cleaning of the skin and stomach of the sheep.
After the lamb is cut, it is set on a campfire and smoked. In this way, the moisture in the lamb is dissipated and can be stored for a longer period of time.
After the sheepskin is washed, it also has to go through the process of smoking, drying and so on.
Sheepskins can be made into leather clothing, and sheep's stomachs can be made into bags for water.
For the next three days, the exploration team was busy here.
Under the command of Needle Gold, the people hunted and killed three more flocks.
Under the personal hand of the needle gold, the heads of the bronze level all surrendered.
Most of the adult goats were killed, but some of the young lambs were temporarily left alive at the behest of the needle.
The goats are easy to feed, so it's not a big burden to have dozens of lambs and four bronze-headed sheep with them.
That's the benefit of having more people. If it's just the two of them, Needle Gold and Zidi, they don't have such idle energy.
On the fourth day, the exploration team officially returned.
At this moment, the appearance of the entire team has changed dramatically.
Almost everyone has a leather coat on their body. The leather jacket was very rudimentary, with a simple hole cut out and used to pull over the head. On both sides of the body under the armpits, there are threads woven with rattan, and the front and back of the two pieces of sheepskin are pierced and tied together.
The side of the blue and black wool remained on the inside, leaning against the body, and the side of the yellow sheepskin was turned on the outside.
Behind each person, there is a huge animal skin package, which mainly contains smoked lamb jerky.
Other than that, it's the hydration bladder. Many water bags made of sheep stomachs are tied around the waist of the personnel.
The reserves of food and fresh water were abundant, almost reaching the limit of the burden of the entire team.
After all, there is a limit to everyone's load.
Xangueza scouts at the front of the line.
Needle Gold, Purple Pedicle and Greybeard walk in the middle of the line.
In the rear is the flock, which is mainly towed by cyanobacteria.
In addition to the dozens of little lambs, the focus is on the four bronze-headed sheep. The goats were now wearing rudimentary reins made of rattan, and a large load of baggage hung from them. The main thing is still dried meat, fresh water, followed by tents, spare weapons, and so on.
All morning, the team was trekking through mountains and rivers, and walking through the mountains and forests.
There were only a few brief breaks, each of which lasted less than a quarter of an hour.
By noon, there was only half an hour of rest.
The whole team was divided into two parts, one part of the people were on guard, checking supplies, etc., and the other part was sitting cross-legged on the ground and eating lunch.
Cangsu and his men carefully checked the front and back of the procession, no one was missing, food and water and other supplies were counted, and the most worried sheep were also calm.
Behind the cracked glasses are the eyes of the old scholar who has been carefully observing.
He found that the part of the people who ate was very relaxed, some made fun of each other, and some were eating food while pinching their calves and trying to relax. And the part of the people on duty who were on guard had their eyes focused on each other, and their chests were erected.
The morale of the entire team was quite high.
From the very beginning, this exploration team was among them.
He had never seen such a spirit exude from these people.
He understands the key reasons for all this.
It's not fragrant mutton jerky, it's not a relatively safe road, it's the young knight.
Needle gold!
All these changes are brought about by him.
His strong strength brings a strong sense of security to everyone and makes everyone feel hopeful.
Xanthophyllum and cyanobacteria became his slaves, and they are working hard these days. Although the needle gold has not shown its vindictiveness, its deep background and suspected gold-level cultivation have made the two brothers feel how bright and bright the future is.
Along the way, Zidi followed closely with the needle gold, almost inseparable. This is the president of the Wisteria Chamber of Commerce, and at the same time, her skillful method of making potions in the last few days has also surfaced in Cangsu's mind.
Cang Xu's gaze finally stayed on the needle gold.
For most of his life, he had seen too many nobles.
And at this time, he was sure that among all the young nobles of the nobility, the needle gold definitely belonged to the top handful.
He is extremely talented, very strong, and even more commendable, he is a qualified leader.
Under his influence, the whole team rallied and morale was high.
Cangsu can foresee that the now down-and-out Hundred Needles family will surely rise again because of the needle gold!
"If possible, follow such a nobleman, witness him achieve his great deeds step by step, and let yourself also participate in the rise of the Hundred Needles family. Perhaps, hundreds of years later, his own name as a scholar will be with him and become one of the recognized signs of wisdom for future generations. What a wonderful thing it is. ”
"What a pity. If I could meet someone like this when I was young......"
The regret in his heart did not show the slightest expression on the face of the old scholar.
He walked up to Needle Gold and reported the results of the investigation in a respectful tone that had remained unchanged.
"Very well, Mr. Aosu. Thanks to your advice, we were able to hunt enough meat and have such abundant reserves. Now sit down and let's have some lunch. Needle Gold invited.
Cangsu said: "My suggestion is only secondary, if it weren't for your guidance, how could we be in such a situation." ”
Needle Gold smiled.
These days, he is getting along more and more with Cangsu.
Don't look at this old scholar as an ordinary person, but his head is not ordinary.
It is up to him to determine the direction in which the team is going.
All he used was a stick stuck in the ground, and the sunlight shone on it.
Cangsu's attitude and demeanor are always maintaining the identity of the nobility of the needle, which makes the needle gold feel comfortable.
He is also very capable of doing things, quite stable and reliable, and the more he uses the needle, the more he uses it, the more comfortable he becomes.
If Cangsu has some strength, even if it is at the Black Iron level, then he is the best candidate for a noble butler. It's a pity that he doesn't have extraordinary qualifications, which is really regrettable.
Even so, Needle Gold wanted to keep Cangsu by his side as much as possible.
This is a talent!
His knowledge is even greater than that of Zidi.
Purple Ti is a mage.
Of course, this is also because Zidi is too young. And when she was studying, she devoted most of her energy to pharmacy.
Needless to say, you can guess that the reason why Zidi does this is because good medicines often have huge market prospects and can bring huge profits.
The farther away from the snow peaks, the higher the temperature.
The sun is at its strongest at noon, and the newly made leather jacket begins to exert the effect of heat preservation. Perhaps it was because they had eaten and drunk enough, and everyone began to look a little wilted.
There were already people on the periphery of the team who took over and kept scouting.
There was no warning, and a deadly crisis crept in in such a quiet atmosphere.
The first was the shouting of a young man in the ranks.
"Oh no, big boys! The little lambs are lying on the ground, motionless, dead!"
"What?"
This is really bad news.
This batch of lambs is very useful. On the one hand, as a last resort, the exploration team can slaughter them for emergencies. On the other hand, if they successfully reach Baisha City, and these little lambs are still alive, they can be raised and then domesticated. In this way, needle gold can cultivate some cavalry.
Needlegold's plan was broken, and he immediately stood up and wanted to inspect it himself.
"Do you know why?" he asked the young man who called the police.
He had long recognized the young man.
His name is Bai Ya, he was born in Orion, and he took the Pig Kiss to Baisha City to join the army.
Bai Ya looked flustered, and quickly shook his head: "I, I don't know, everything happened suddenly, my lord." ”
Needle Jin hummed and was about to take a step, when suddenly a strong wave of dizziness hit. He was caught off guard, his body shook violently, and he almost fell to the ground on the spot.
He barely stood still, only to find that the members of the exploration team, who had just been in high spirits, had all staggered to the ground.
Almost instantly, most of the members passed out on the spot.
Purple pedicle, xanthophylla, cyanobacteria and others are still barely supporting themselves.
"What's going on?!"
"Everyone seems to be poisoned!"
"What kind of poison is this?!"
Huang Zao suddenly took out a dagger from his arms and shouted angrily at the young man Bai Ya: "Everyone is poisoned, why are you okay?
