Chapter 35: Fire Rats
"Fire rat!" Li Yunfeng saw that there was movement on Li Feng's side, and immediately rushed over, instantly recognizing the monster in the iron spear, and said with a look of surprise.
Hearing the sect leader's surprised voice, Li Feng was stunned for a moment: "Fire rat, is it a demonic beast?"
"Well, a very rare low-level magical beast, I didn't expect to meet here. Li Yunfeng carefully looked at the demonic beast fire rat that was crucified to the trunk of the tree and struggled violently.
Li Feng couldn't help but say, "Can you eat this thing?"
"You can't eat it, it smells fishy, and it's highly toxic in your body!" Li Yunfeng shook his head and said.
Li Feng was a little disappointed: "I can't eat it, it's a pity." ”
"You kid, what kind of expression is this. Although the meat of this fire rat cannot be eaten, its fur is quite valuable. Li Yunfeng said with a smile.
Li Feng was overjoyed when he heard this: "Really?"
"Yes, it seems that you don't know much about this fire rat. ”
"Rat-like demonic beasts are divided into several types, and there are generally two of the most common ones in the deep mountains, namely the stone-eating rat and the gray giant rat, both of which belong to the lowest-level demonic beasts. ”
"Stone-eating rats feed mainly on dead branches and gravel, and their teeth are sharp and sharp, allowing them to easily bite off the neck of a wild deer. ”
"The gray giant rat is very large, it can reach one or two meters long in adulthood, weighs dozens of catties, has a fiery temperament, and eats a huge amount, but its flesh and blood are very delicious, and it is a rodent monster that can provide meat. ”
"This fire rat is a very rare species, and although its meat is not edible, its fur is very valuable. ”
"Fox fur and leather jackets can not only keep warm and cold, but also provide the wearer with a trace of fiery energy, which will remain unchanged for several years. ”
"The ladies of the big islands are most fond of this kind of thing. Li Yunfeng looked down at the huge fire rat with a look of amazement.
Hearing the sect leader's explanation, Li Feng immediately raised his eyebrows, flipped his hand and swung it out, slashing at the fire rat's head like lightning.
"Squeak!" The fire rat, which was originally struggling frantically, whimpered, and was smashed off its skull and died.
When Li Yunfeng saw this scene, his eyes lit up, and he felt more and more that Li Feng's strength was improving very quickly.
"Pluck off the fur of the fire rat and make a leather jacket for your mother, so that you won't be frozen in this cold season." Li Feng happily pulled out the iron spear, slowly removed the fire rat, and then used a knife to dissect the wound pierced by the spear.
Li Feng's movements were very gentle, carefully cutting open the wound to avoid blood splashing, and it took a lot of effort to completely peel off the fur of the fire rat.
After handling it carefully, Li Feng hurriedly rolled up the fur with a thin rope and wrapped it around his waist.
This fur is very light, and it is almost impossible to feel the weight when wrapped around the waist, and it does not hinder Li Feng from walking at all.
After Li Yunfeng saw that everyone was full of food and drink, he looked at the group of companions around him, hesitated in his heart, and then gritted his teeth and decided to go to the mountains to take an adventure, how could he hunt some wild beasts and bring them back to improve the food in the village.
"Let's go, let's go inside the mountains!"
Hearing Li Yunfeng's words, the twenty men were stunned for a moment, and their eyes were all a little worried.
"Yunfeng, are we going to the mountains?" said a villager named Li Qinghao, carrying a hunting fork on his back, with a puzzled expression.
Li Yunfeng nodded: "Well, we came out for most of the day, and we just played such a little thing, too little, everyone is not enough at all." ”
"What if I encounter a demonic beast?" said another villager, a little frightened.
Li Yunfeng said with a cold face: "You can't go back empty-handed, don't forget, the village has high hopes for us." ”
"You can afford to lose this man, but I can't afford to lose him. ”
Once the cold season arrives, it is freezing and there is less prey at that time.
With so many people in the village, food will become a big problem, and the patriarch Li Longshan and they have to plan early.
Li Yunfeng is the mainstay of the village, and the heavy responsibility of sharing the worries of the patriarch naturally falls on him.
"Yun Feng is right, we can't just go back like this, let the people in the village see our jokes! The doll in the family is waiting to be fed, and we, as men, have to bear the responsibility of supporting the family. Another brawny man agreed.
"Well, that's what I said, the cold season is coming, the weather is cold, and when the time comes, not to mention the reduction of wild animals in the mountains, even the fish and seafood in the sea are difficult to find. ”
"yes, we can't go home empty-handed this time. ”
"Be careful, you shouldn't be in any danger. ”
The villagers said a word and asked a word, and the atmosphere was high, and they all wanted to hunt a little beast flesh and blood for their families, so that they could survive this cold season in peace.
After discussion, the group packed up their things and rushed into the depths of the mountain.
The mountains and forests on the outskirts of the mountains are dark and damp, and many flowers and trees have entered a state of withering and withering.
But the more a group of people marched deeper into the mountain, the more they found that the inside of the mountain gradually warmed up, the plants and trees were in full bloom, the birds were singing and the flowers were fragrant, and the air was wafting with wisps of fragrant smell, which was refreshing.
Even the sunshine is much brighter than the periphery, the surrounding scenery is pleasant, the branches and leaves are luxuriant, people who don't know, they think that they have come to another world, compared with the outside world, it is simply a world of difference.
After traveling four or five miles into the mountain, wild deer, pheasants, and wild boars that had disappeared on the outskirts of the mountain could be seen everywhere.
Li Feng walked in the team, his eyes swept around vigilantly, he exuded perception, and was suddenly surprised to find that the vitality of this forest Li was so abundant, at least several times richer than the outside world.
With a warm climate and sunny sunshine, it's no wonder the vegetation grows so vigorously.
I'm afraid that those wild beasts also know that the damp environment on the outskirts of the mountain is too harsh, and they have run to the depths of the mountain to inhabit and survive.
Seeing that wild beasts could be seen everywhere in the depths of the mountain, the villagers were overjoyed, and immediately set up traps around them, took out bows, arrows and spears and began to hunt wild beasts.
The villagers practice martial arts all year round and live at the foot of the mountain, not only are they agile, but they are also good at hunting wild beasts, and almost all of them are hunting experts.
This mountain forest is a pleasant environment, and there are so many wild animals living in it, for them, it is like coming to a paradise, and they are full of energy.
The tools used by the group to hunt wild beasts were nothing more than bows and arrows, spears, and improvised traps.
But such a simple tool can give these hunters a great advantage.
Li Feng's body was like a cheetah, and he jumped up to a big tree with fast movements, holding an iron spear, and looked at a wild mountain cow drinking like a stream not far away.
The figure raised the iron spear back slightly, his back was stretched like a bowstring, secretly accumulating strength, his arm suddenly flung violently, and a strong force came out from his waist, pouring into the iron spear in his hand.
With a bang, the iron spear flew out in an instant, cutting a diagonal line in mid-air, and piercing the belly of the mountain cow like lightning.
"Roar!" the mountain bull raised its head and roared sadly, rolled out a few meters away, and instinctively ran out with four hooves, but the more it ran, the faster the blood loss from the wound penetrated by the iron spear, and the vitality in the body quietly dissipated.
Strands of bright red blood slowly escaped in the stream and flowed low, and with a loud bang, the mountain cow finally couldn't hold on anymore and fell in a pool of blood.
"That's it!" Li Feng's indifferent face showed a hint of a smile.
