Chapter 15: Mission, Destroy the Fanged Porcupine
There is no time in the mountains, and there are thousands of years of practice!
Spiritual practice is a very time-consuming thing, and even more so when you are stuck in a bottleneck and constantly making all kinds of efforts in order to break through, consuming a lot of time and energy just to seek a breakthrough.
Retreat and immerse yourself in cultivation, months pass in the blink of an eye, and years or even decades fly by like this.
Lin Yi had this feeling, in order to be able to complete the first step in the silent plan, Lin Yi spent three years before he was able to pick up Ai Yi's sword with the use of the reverse tendon technique.
If he didn't use the reverse tendon technique, Lin Yi could barely hold it, but if he wanted to wield it, it would be too clumsy and could only be used to smash people.
Of course, if it is hit, it is definitely not a fun thing, Lin Yi picked it up when it was a thousand catties, and when it fell down, it was not just a thousand catties, under the effect of gravitational acceleration, the power was very good, and it was definitely an extraordinary enjoyment.
Lin Yi tried it once, and directly smashed a third-level tiger beast to death, smashing its head to pieces on the spot, even the skull was completely shattered, and even the powder of the skull could not be found.
The trilogy planned by Mo, Lin Yi didn't think it was anything when he listened to it at the time, but after three years of use before the first step was complete, Lin Yi didn't think so at all.
According to Lin Yi's current speed, it is estimated that it will take another two years to reach the second step, and it is impossible to complete the second step of planning without two or three years, so the second step is initially estimated to take five years.
As for the last step, Lin Yi tried, now after he took the sword into the water, he couldn't swing it at all, because of the relationship between the water flow, it would form a very obvious resistance, not to mention, when it fell down, there would be a strong buffer force on the water surface, which greatly slowed down the force and speed of the fall.
And when you fall to the surface of the water, the powerful impact will make the water splash, and the splashing water, because of the impact force, will become a series of highly lethal water arrows.
Lin Yi was severely injured by the water arrows that splashed out that time, and his body was shot by the water arrows, which was full of holes, if Lin Yi hadn't used his sword to stand up and protect his head and chest at a critical moment, he would have either brought the water arrow to shoot through, or his heart was pierced by the water arrow.
That time was really dangerous, although he was lucky enough to avoid the vital point, Lin Yi's body was still left with serious wounds, and his arms, thighs and abdomen were pierced through dozens of hideous and terrifying holes.
When Ai Yi realized that something was wrong, Lin Yi was already dying, and the wounds on his body were constantly bubbling with blood, if Ai Yi was a few minutes late, Lin Yi's blood would have dried up, and Lin Yi would have completed the feat of suicide.
That time, it took Lin Yi more than half a month to recover from his injuries.
Since then, Lin Yi didn't dare to make any other attempts, just honestly follow the steps that were planned by the silent, cultivate this kind of thing, or follow the steps step by step, one by one, and go down steadily.
"Third, it's time for us to go. Ai Yi put his hands to his mouth and shouted loudly in the shape of a trumpet.
"Got it. Hearing the call, Lin Yi ended today's cultivation, today is a special day, it is a monthly money-making day for the four of them.
Although in this deep mountain and old forest, the old man planted a lot of food, and there were a lot of exotic beasts to eat, but there were still many things in life that were not available here, such as some medicinal herbs, and some necessities of life, such as salt and spices.
So every once in a while, you have to go out to purchase, when Lin Yi met the old man and them, it was on their way back from going out to purchase.
With Lin Yi and others growing up, the old man handed over the responsibility of procurement to Lin Yi and the others, in addition, the old man also did a very excessive thing, that is, he didn't give half a penny, and let Lin Yi and the four of them make money by themselves, which is called exercising their earning ability and cultivating them more survival skills.
Lin Yi really wanted to punch that brazen old man, please, they are only eight or nine years old now, they have to make their own money to support their families at such a young age, can you be more shameless?
The old man said that there was no pressure, yes, he didn't care what you bought, but one thing had to be done, and that was to buy him alcohol every month.
Although Lin Yi and Ai Yi don't have much respect for the old man verbally, they still respect him very much in their hearts, and Mo's attitude is not very clear, but it must be similar, only Xiangrou is good to the old man on the outside and inside, and buys him good wine every time.
So, Lin Yi, who could have come out to make money in two or three months, had to come out once a month, otherwise there would simply be enough money to help the old man buy wine.
When Lin Yi rushed over to meet, Mo and Xiangrou had been waiting for a while, looking at Lin Yi who was slow, Xiangrou couldn't help but complain, "Lin Yi, can you hurry up." ”
"I want to too, but with this sword on my back, I can't walk fast at all, okay, a thousand catties of things are pressed on my body, and you can walk fast. "Lin Yi can't go fast at all, the burden on his body is too heavy.
"Mo, let him lift the ban for a while, otherwise he will be carrying gluttony, and our itinerary will not be fast. ”
"Ai Yi, take back the gluttony. ”
"Gluttony, the name of this sword?"
"Yes, my sword didn't have a name all along, and I wanted to name it for a long time, but I didn't know what to call it, so I asked the boss to help me come up with a name. ”
"And then I took such a name, do you know what gluttony means?"
"It's a mythical beast that is said to be very good at eating. Ai spread out his hands and opened them wide, with a happy and excited face.
Is gluttony a divine beast, of course not, although the level is about the same, but it is classified as a fierce beast, and the biggest feature of gluttony is that it can be eaten. Legend has it that the gluttony has no body, and that's because he is so good at eating his own body, so he only has a big head and a big mouth left.
Naming Ai Yi's sword gluttony, is this talking about Ai Yi's greedy characteristics?
Well, from a certain point of view, this is really very vivid, but Ai Yi's greed is because of the relationship between this sword, and it is actually quite appropriate to name this sword gluttony.
"Forget it, let's go, what are we going to do this time?"
"It is said that a group of strange beasts have recently come to Fulai Town, which are fanged porcupines of the third rank, and they eat and destroy the crops of Fulai Town, causing serious harm there, so someone needs to expel them, or destroy them. Mo glanced at the mission description and said that they were now mercenaries, hired to complete the mission, and then get paid.
Expelling or eliminating alien beasts that disturb the people like this is a very common task, and it is also the most important source of income for Lin Yi at this stage, and Lin Yi has done it five times in the past year.
"The fanged porcupine is a gregarious alien beast, how many are there this time?" Xiangrou asked, the third-level alien beast is not a problem for them, although the rank is the same, but the ordinary alien beast will definitely not be their opponent, the problem is the number, if it is too much, it will be difficult to deal with.
"Don't worry, the number of fanged porcupines is about two decades, and we can still gnaw on this bone. ”
"It's a bit difficult to have two heads. ”
"It's just difficult, killing these two dozen fanged porcupines is just enough to give Ai Yi half a month's ration. Mo said lightly.
Lin Yi looked up at the sky at a forty-five degree angle, and more than twenty pigs gave Ai Yi half a month's ration, okay, this kid's appetite has increased again.
At about two o'clock in the afternoon, Lin Yi and the four of them rushed to Fulai Town, and the old mayor had been waiting at the entrance of the town for a while, and saw that there were actually four teenage children, and he was a little dazed.
"Hello old man, we have taken on a mission to expel the fanged porcupine. Mo politely stepped forward and explained his intentions.
"Just you little babies, can you deal with strange beasts?" The old mayor didn't believe it very much, after all, Lin Yi and the four of them were too young, so young that people didn't have confidence at all.
"Old man, rest assured, this is our mercenary proof that our strength and mission completion rate are on top, although the fanged porcupine is a third-level beast, we can still deal with it. ”
"Oh!" the old mayor looked at the mercenary certificate given by Mo, and then he was a little relieved, but he was inevitably still a little worried, after all, such a few little dolls had to deal with a group of strange beasts, and his heart was always at ease.
"That group of tusked porcupines is too dangerous, you better go back and change to adults. ”
"Since we are here, of course we will not return empty-handed, completing the task is the only thing we should do, old man, you just need to tell us where that group of fanged porcupines is, you just wait for us to deal with this group of hidden dangers." ”
"Alas, why don't you listen to you, little babies. The old mayor is also for the good of Lin Yi and the others, but Lin Yi doesn't care at all, "Over there, that group of strange beasts will come and destroy our crops every once in a while, and everything in our fields is about to be ruined by them, if we don't drive them away, we won't have any grain harvest today, and we won't be able to survive." ”
Lin Yi looked in the direction pointed by the old mayor, there was a large area of fertile land, planted with a lot of crops and vegetables and fruits, which should have been connected together, but there were a few pieces missing, and it was obvious that it had been destroyed, that is, the part that had been eaten by the fanged porcupine.
"We'll take care of the rest of the matter, so please wait for our good news with peace of mind. ”
