Hunting in Castle Peak Village has been passed down since ancient times, and is organized every once in a while. Relatively large-scale hunting will be close to the periphery of the boundary, although you can't go out of the boundary, but the periphery of Qingshan Village is very vast, with many forests and hills, so there are many beasts, and there is no shortage of fierce ancient beasts and brute beasts!

Although on weekdays, a few people in the village often spontaneously form groups and go out of the village to hunt. However, they do not go to the periphery, and generally hunt closer to the village, which is for safety. After all, there are too many fierce beasts near the periphery, and it is too dangerous for a few people to form a team! And many people can't be idle in their free time, and over time, more scattered teams will appear out of the village to hunt.

But the big hunts had to be carried out by the village chief, and there were several times a year, which was the rule in the village, as was the case with sacrifices and coming-of-age ceremonies, but hunting was even more dangerous!

Hunting is like going on an expedition, and every big hunt takes days, even months! Therefore, before the hunt, the village chief will gather the people who participate in the hunt, and the place where the adult rite pen is also the place where the hunt begins!

"The last hunt was very good, a good harvest! And this hunt, I hope you rely on your own strength and no longer rely on the elders in the village. Your Uncle Qin is right, blindly accompanying you can't train a real hunter. This time, I hope that even if you don't return with a good harvest, you will have a lot of them!

The village chief said in a deep voice, before every hunt, the old village chief will explain some things to pay attention to, and this time, it is to train the new generation, as long as all the members return, it will be a victory!

"Good"

With a roar, Mo Ran and Xiaoqi set off with the hunting team, and many of them now have lost their childishness and become a little more resolute and mature.

This time it was Qin Li who led the team, who had been trained by his father Qin Zhu since he was a child, and had a full understanding of some things about hunting, so it was most suitable for him to serve as the leader of the team this time. Originally, the village chief knew that Mo Ran was also going to participate, and wanted Mo Ran to lead the team. But Mo Ran refused, although he was more familiar with hunting, he was not suitable to be a team leader, Qin Li was indeed better than himself in terms of team leader.

"It seems that after returning from the last hunt, everyone's temperament has changed significantly, and they are more calm. Also, many people have already got married, and they have more responsibilities" Mo Ran looked at everyone and sighed, just his eyes revealed a sense of courage and maturity, sharp eyes but steady.

"Mo Ran, I didn't expect you to come! Last time, I heard that you were miserable by your grandfather, and you fell asleep for more than a month, so you missed the last hunt."

Tang Tian saw Mo Ran in the crowd, you are also familiar with each other, and came up to say hello.

"Well, I'm very sorry, I couldn't come for a reason, but this time I caught up," Mo Ran said with a smile.

"It's really Mo Ran, Mo Ran is also here"

Everyone didn't notice it, after all, there were as many as twenty or thirty people hunting in the village this time, but now when they heard Tang Tianyi say, they all turned their heads to look at it.

It is not yet near the periphery of the realm, and most of the beasts around it are weak, and everyone can relax a little while while they are on the march, and it will consume their minds if they keep tensing themselves, but the necessary vigilance has not decreased.

"Mo Ran, you kid, if you don't want the team leader, you will throw it to me" Qin Li knew that Mo Ran was coming, and stepped forward to say hello. Originally, he told the village chief that the team leader gave it to Mo Ran, but he didn't expect Mo Ran to refuse.

"The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility, it is best for you to lead the team, if it is only a few people, I will not shirk, but now there are more than 20 people, and you can avoid some casualties" Mo Ran smiled, telling the truth.

"Hey, is this Xiao Qi, Xiao Qi actually came with me" Someone was surprised.

Everyone hadn't paid attention to it yet, but when they saw Mo then, they also found that the girl beside him was actually Xiaoqi! This kind of large-scale hunting is very dangerous, and it may not be able to take care of it itself, and now Xiaoqi has followed, which is too risky.

"Mo Ran, why did you bring Xiao Qi here?" Qin Li said in a deep voice, it stands to reason that Mo Ran is not like this kind of person who does not know the importance of the hunt, and he should know the danger of hunting. Xiaoqi is here now, not just because of her own safety. When hunting, if you ignore some precautions, it may affect the safety of the whole team.

"I'm sorry, but Xiao Qi can take care of it herself, this little sparrow on her body is a spirit bird, and she can protect Xiao Qi when necessary. Besides, I will be by his side, and it should be all right."

Mo Ran clenched his fists and apologized, this matter was indeed his fault, and bringing Xiaoqi undoubtedly increased the burden and danger of the team. But this girl had no choice but to follow, thinking that she would be separated soon, and she couldn't bear it.

"Well, since you have said so, it should be fine" Qin Li didn't say much when he heard this, knowing Mo Ran's current ability, it was no problem to protect Xiao Qi without hindrance.

In Qingshan Village, the old village chief looked at the people who were far away, and sighed inexplicably, "I don't know if this decision is right or wrong, but I hope all of them can come back safely." ”

"Lao Zhang, why worry, this is their way, isn't it" Mo Ran's grandfather walked to the village chief, looked at the people in the distance and smiled.

"Old man of the Mo family, if it weren't for you and Qin Zhu insisting on this, it would be too early for me to think about it now."

The village chief was reluctant to let them hunt alone too early, the children of this generation are very good, and they should be trained more in the company of their elders, and now let them hunt by themselves too early, there will be danger in the end.

"The outside world is turbulent, don't you know, whether the mountain spirit can still protect this village from being discovered. If you don't train now, you may not have many opportunities in the future."

Grandpa Mo Ran looked up and sighed. I had been arguing with the village chief for a long time about the mountain spirit. Qingshan Village has been breeding here for a long time, but when sacrificing to the mountain spirit, Mo Ran's grandfather and the old village chief are both spiritual cultivators, and they can't feel it! The mountain spirit seems to be weakening day by day, Qingshan Village has always been like a pure land, because of the blessing of the mountain spirit, if the mountain spirit is not there one day, maybe many situations will change.

"That's it, maybe you're right," the old village chief sighed, and returned to the village on crutches, a little more lonely between the figures.

When a group of hunters approached the outer boundary, the ancient trees around them were towering and entangled like dragons, and many beasts could be heard roaring in the forest from time to time.

"There are three caves nearby, the last hunting time has been opened up and formed, now we are twenty-seven people, a group of nine people, living in the cave at night, I, Han Tong, and Mo Ran, share the leader of the three groups, each group will first tidy up the cave to avoid wild beasts mixed in the cave, Tang Tian, Li Lei, Sun Ming, Zhou Hai, Zhou Zhuang, Peng Huaitian, six people temporarily out of the line, to observe the surrounding situation, the others arrange the surrounding protection, the same as the last time"

Qin Li ordered the arrangement one by one. Now that you're about to enter the periphery, you need to leave a back hand at the border, and this is the hunting camp!

"These holes are so hidden that they are difficult for ordinary beasts to find"

Mo Ran came here for the first time to hunt, the three holes in front of him can be said to be a hole, there are two small corridors connected inside, all of which are artificially opened, and the outside hole is very small, originally covered with boulders and weeds, after modification, it is basically impossible to see, and the cover is very good.

"That's true. The caves here are constantly repaired according to the situation during each hunt, and the four walls are so strong that even if a brute beast comes, it is difficult to tread on it. And because the hole is small, it is difficult for those brute beasts and ancient beasts to enter, even if there is a problem with one hole, they can also enter and retreat from other holes," Qin Li explained.

After a while, the six people who had gone out to investigate all came back one after another, and the six of them were not scattered, but in groups of two.

"As usual, there are fewer beasts nearby, after all, this is only the outer boundary," Peng Huaitian said, and when he went to explore the circle just now, he didn't find any special circumstances.

"It's the same on our side, we beat some beasts" Li Lei and Sun Ming together, after the investigation, they just found a few small beasts nearby, so they hunted back by the way.

"I didn't find a problem, it's just a small beast around, it should be fine"

After the Zhou brothers finished exploring, they returned to the cave. Zhou Hai and Zhou Zhuang, the two are one of the few siblings in the village, they often hunt together, and their tacit understanding with each other is very high.

Some protection began to be formed around the camp. Although there are mainly three holes, it will be too late if you find that all the beasts are blocked outside the hole, so arranging some necessary warnings and protections nearby can delay this situation and facilitate all aspects of response.

"Mo Ran, what do you think, it's your first time here" Qin Li looked at Mo Ran standing and observing the surroundings, and said.

"It's not a loss, it's been renovated for many years, it's really good"

Mo Ran went inside to see a lot, and the preparations were complete, and there were a lot of hunting tools and blades, as well as camp equipment for everyone to rest.

During the night, a fire was lit in the cave, and now that the hunt has not really begun, it is necessary to keep up the spirit.

Mo Ran now has to sit on the sidelines, constantly trying to crack the veins in his body, but he still fails.

"Hey, it looks like I'm in a hurry. Still no, the recovery ability of the cyan aura is too terrifying now, and when the vein is cracked, it will recover autonomously, unless there is an instantaneous power to crack the spiritual vein!" Mo Ran opened his eyes and sighed.

"Brother" Xiaoqi leaned over, remembering the last time she was left in the cave by Mo Ran, and her brother was chased by the golden horn in order to save her, and she still has palpitations.

"What's the matter, girl" Mo Ran touched Xiaoqi's head, knowing what was going on with this girl. At first, she was chased by the Golden Horn because of her own negligence, leaving Xiaoqi alone, which made her frightened. If something happened to Xiaoqi that time, Mo Ran would definitely regret it for the rest of his life.

"It's okay" The corners of Xiaoqi's mouth curled slightly, she closed her eyes and didn't speak, she leaned quietly beside Mo Ran, and gradually fell asleep.

"Mo Ran, there's something wrong with this place" Fang Tianque's voice sounded when Mo Ran was about to fall asleep.

"What's wrong, you say this hole?" Mo Ranhu suspected, this little sparrow didn't say anything all the way, he really knew how to pick the time, and he was woken up just when he wanted to sleep, but for the sake of safety, he still had to ask what was going on.

"No, it's the forest around here, I feel a little strange all the way here, it seems that something is missing" Fang Tianque herself didn't know, but with her spirit beast feeling, she always felt that something was missing along the way, but she couldn't say it.

"What's missing" Mo Ran was puzzled in his heart, it stands to reason that Fang Tianque, an ancient spirit bird, is very accurate.

Although I looked at the little sparrow, I always felt a little unreliable, but I still had to take precautions. I kept thinking about the way I had gone all the way, according to what Fang Tianque said, there should have been something missing, but after thinking about it, I didn't understand it, and I didn't find anything strange along the way.

So he told the others about it, but they didn't feel any difference and didn't think much about it, after all, it was safe here.
