Chapter VI Rewards
When Lin'er arrived at the village chief's courtyard, Zhuang Xuan and the others had already sat down around the stone table in the courtyard.
"The little girl has finally arrived, sit down quickly!" said the village chief with a smile.
Cang'er smiled at Lin'er's eyebrows, Lin'er saw him like this, her small mouth pursed, and she rushed forward, grabbing Cang'er's ear with one hand, "What are you laughing at? What's so happy? Say it and make me happy!"
Cang'er was tugged at his ear, and immediately bared his teeth and shouted for mercy.
Lin'er let go of her hand, but when she turned around, she saw Zhuang Xuan looking at her with a smile, Qiong snorted lightly, walked to Zhuang Xuan's side loudly, and sat down next to him.
The village chief stroked his beard, looked at Lin'er with a smile, and saw that she stopped, so he said: "You little guys today, but give me a surprise!"
Hearing these words in the ears of several people, they immediately became proud in their hearts. Cang'er's eyes rolled and said, "Grandpa the village chief, we performed so well, is there any reward?"
Hearing this, Lin'er and Zhuang Xuan's eyes also lit up, and they looked at the village chief with anticipation.
The village chief was so amused by their appearance that he couldn't laugh or cry, and pointed at a few people and laughed and scolded: "You little devils! Tell me what reward you all want. ”
Hearing the village chief say this, even Ah Hu, who usually behaves wooden, clenched his fists excitedly.
"I want a short dagger!" Before Cang'er could speak, Lin'er had already spoken first.
"I want a strong bow!" Cang'er was preempted by Lin'er, and he was not happy, but as soon as Lin'er's voice fell, Cang'er called out. Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, he only felt that a pair of eyes were staring at him fiercely, but it was Lin'er.
"Are your ears itching again? Brother Zhuang Xuan didn't say, what are you anxious about?" Lin'er squinted, looking like she was about to do something if she didn't agree with her. Cang'er quickly shrunk his neck. This little witch dares to do anything to anyone except Zhuang Xuan, she has already suffered a lot from her, so let's bear with it now.
Seeing that Cang'er was honest, Lin'er turned her face back, and at the same time snorted lightly, as if to say, "You know each other!"
Looking at the majestic Lin'er beside him, Zhuang Xuan couldn't help but smile bitterly, "This little girl is really spicy!" and immediately said to Ah Hu: "Ah Hu, you say it first, I haven't figured out what I want yet!"
Ah Hu smiled innocently and said to the village chief, "Do you have any heavier weapons?"
The village chief nodded. Seeing this, Ah Hu's face flushed with excitement, but he didn't continue to speak. When a few people saw his appearance, they were speechless for a moment, and said in their hearts, "Brother, you can tell me more details! There are more types of heavier weapons, do you only recognize the weight?" But a few people were already used to his temperament, and they didn't say anything.
When the chief of the village saw that they had all said what he wanted, he got up and went into the house, and after a short time he went and returned, with three more weapons in his hand.
A dagger with a skin sheath, a longbow, and a plate axe. It was the weapon that the three of Cang'er requested.
The village chief came to the table and sat down, picked up the bow, gently stroked the bow and said: "This bow is one of the two best weapons in my collection, the material of the bow body is taken from the wooden heart of the hundred-year-old mulberry silkworm wood, which lasted a month, and was smoked and tanned by scripture fire. The bowstring was part of the tendon of the Ice Flame Python I hunted back then. ”
Hearing this, Zhuang Xuan's eyes were different when they looked at this bow. "Good stuff!"
Cang'er was already itching in his heart, and he couldn't wait to snatch this bow over, and immediately enter the deep mountains to hunt hundreds of fierce beasts.
The village chief did not rush to give the bow to Cang'er, but continued: "I have only made two bows, one large and one small, one mother and one son. This sub-bow has a full range of 100 zhang, which is twice the range of ordinary bows, and can shoot through the fur of demon beasts in the early stage of blood refining. ”
"Hiss~!" all four people, including Zhuang Xuan, gasped. The demon beasts in the early stage of blood refining are already not weak demon beasts in the Black Demon Mountain, and they generally have their own territory. Hunting in the village is generally to hunt demon beasts below the peak of muscle refining.
Because the strength of the hunters in the village is not high, they are basically between the late stage of muscle refining and the middle stage of blood refining. In the case of no hunters in the village, it is difficult for the villagers to hunt demon beasts that have reached the realm of blood refining.
At this time, Cang'er's eyes were already straight. The village chief smiled and handed the bow to Cang'er. Cang'er stretched out his hands, solemnly took them, and gently stroked the bow, and couldn't help but be overjoyed.
The village chief picked up the axe and looked a little more solemn. The moment Ah Hu on the side saw the axe, his mind was completely attracted by the thick shape of the axe. It feels like this axe is tailor-made for itself, and the breath protection becomes heavy invisibly.
"This plate axe was handed down by the ancestors in the village, and it is the third generation of my generation. The village chief said in a deep voice.
As soon as these words came out, even the indifferent Zhuang Xuan was also shocked. Cang'er also shifted his attention to the board axe, waiting for the village chief's next step.
"The plate axe is the weapon of the elder in the village, and this senior has a high level of cultivation, even if it is now, I am slightly inferior. However, due to the lack of progress in cultivation, before the end of Shouyuan, he went to the depths of the Black Demon Mountain alone, and has not been heard from since. The village chief stroked the axe with his old hand, his face full of reminiscence. "Before the senior left, he left behind this plate axe, whose name is 'broken', is three feet three inches long and weighs seventy-two pounds. ”
"Shattered! What a domineering name!" Zhuang Xuan raised his eyebrows slightly, and he had a general understanding of the senior in the village chief's mouth.
Ah Hu took the plate axe, suddenly felt a sinking in his hand, tried it in his hand, and was extremely satisfied. Although Ah Hu is only twelve years old, he is born with divine power, and now although he only has the cultivation in the late stage of muscle refining, he can fight with the hunters at the peak of muscle refining in the village, although he was defeated in the end, but he was only defeated by lack of experience.
Ah Hu has always been worried about not having a suitable weapon, but he never thought that he could get a weapon that he was satisfied with from the village chief for this hunt, and he was naturally happy in his heart. A mouth is already grinning at the back of the head.
The village chief finally picked up the dagger and frowned, "Although this dagger is also handed down by my ancestors, I don't know where it came from. As he spoke, he slowly pulled the dagger out of its sheath. I saw that the dagger was white, warm in color, and about seven inches long. When Zhuang Xuan saw this dagger, his face was a little strange, because the shape of this dagger was like a bone, to be exact, like an enlarged tooth.
Zhuang Xuan was taken aback by this thought of his own. I really can't imagine how ferocious a demon beast with such teeth should be. Even the Black Iron Tiger encountered during the day had far less terrifying teeth, at best only one-third of the size of this dagger.
"I don't know where this dagger came from, but I'm sure it's made from a tooth bone. When the village chief said this, his expression was very serious.
His words fell on the ears of Zhuang Xuan and the four people, and there was a thunderclap on the ground.
"Is it really a tooth?" Although Zhuang Xuan was also surprised, it was better, after all, he himself had made this guess just now, but it was confirmed by the village chief. As for why the village chief's expression was so serious, it is easy to explain.
As a hunter living in the mountains, if he encountered such a fierce beast, wouldn't the whole village suffer! As the village head, he had to worry.
Lin'er solemnly took the bone dagger, no longer smiling as before. Obviously, she was also shocked by the village chief's words.
At this point, the village chief sighed, and took the water from the table to moisten his thirsty throat.
"Okay, except for Zhuang Xuan, I will give you all the rewards you three want, go back quickly. Zhuang Xuan stayed first. "The village chief ordered the three to be evicted.
When the three of them got the reward that they were satisfied with, they were eager to try it out and wanted to find a place to test it, but when they saw the village chief say this, they quickly got up and left, and immediately got up and took their leave.
