Chapter 52: The Golden Retriever
Of course, all this is thanks to Nubi, if it weren't for Nubi, it is estimated that Chen Fan would have died in the jungle.
"Great, I can finally stand up!" Chen Fan was excited, waving his arms, although his body was still a little sore, but it did not hinder his freedom of movement at all.
"Nubi, you don't have to go out to find food today, I'll just go, you've taken care of me for so long, it's time to take a good rest. Chen Fan stroked Nubi's plush body, his eyes full of gratitude.
"Uh-huh!" Nubi nodded as if she didn't understand, her mouth watering all the time.
Chen Fan grew up in the village since he was a child, and naturally knew that fierce beasts were infested in the barren forest and were full of dangers, so before he hunted, he first found the branch of the mountain iron tree, which is a kind of big tree comparable to the hardness of King Kong, and the local warriors generally used it as a flying arrow, he found a more rounded branch, and then kept rubbing it on the moss stone.
After about an hour, after some perseverance, the iron pestle was finally sharpened into a needle, turning one end of the mountain iron branch into a sharp blade.
In this way, Chen Fan relied on the hunting skills he had learned before, and he was enough to protect himself in the dense jungle.
"Let's go!" Chen Fan said excitedly.
After a year of recuperation, he had now stood up again, and he felt extremely unfamiliar with the familiar world in front of him, but fortunately, he was very adaptable, and his body had already crept into a dense bush.
Generally speaking, when a warrior enters the Netherworld Valley to hunt, he will hide in the dense bush jungle, secretly check every move in the forest, and as long as there is suitable prey, he can suddenly attack, flash out of the bushes, and kill the beast with one move.
The Netherworld Valley is a world where the jungle eats the strong, and those warriors equipped with armor and dark iron heavy swords seem to be powerful, but in fact, they are vulnerable in the face of invincible beasts, so human warriors can only adopt despicable sneak attack tactics in order to obtain food and energy sources from the Netherworld God Valley.
This is also an instinct derived by human beings in the evolution of thousands of years.
Chen Fan walked lightly in the bushes, kept silent, his eyes were like lightning, and he quietly watched every move outside.
At this time, it was already sunset, the remnant sun was obliquely shining in the dense forest, the blurred light stained the earth, and many giant beasts were already exhausted after a day of rushing and hunting, and at this time dragged their lazy bodies and crawled lazily to the lair.
Chen Fan knew that his opportunity had come.
Generally speaking, when the beast returns to the nest, it is the best time to hunt, but with Chen Fan's current physical condition, for those medium-sized beasts, such as pigs, cheetahs, tigers, etc., they are naturally lacking in strength and difficult to hunt.
Therefore, his eyes have been looking for those small animals, such as sloths, pheasants, bobcats and the like, this kind of animal, at the bottom of the food chain in the Netherworld God Valley, relying on the mountain iron branches in his hand, it should not be difficult to hunt one or two pheasants.
But what Chen Fan didn't expect was that he sneaked around for a long time, but he never found any small animals showing up, and the tigers, colored wolves, and cheetahs, which usually like to come out when the sun sets, were nowhere to be seen.
The small animals and medium-sized beasts were all gone, which made Chen Fan puzzled, and his heart was full of questions, could it be that in the Netherworld God Valley, what earth-shattering changes had happened?
After an hour of searching, Chen Fan only saw two cheetahs passing by, and they were scarred, lame and sneaking, and there was no beast demeanor at all.
"What the hell is going on?" Chen Fan couldn't help but be surprised.
Chen Fan was patient, and sneaked in the bushes for a while, at this time it was already midnight, the bright moon hung high in the clear sky, the moonlight covered the earth, and the entire Netherworld God Valley was shrouded in white light, like a fairyland.
At this moment, Chen Fan heard a rapid hissing sound, judging from his years of hunting experience, this must be a giant python giving a signal to hunt.
"The giant python is a nocturnal animal, and it is already midnight, so you can still hear their movements?" Chen Fan was curious, and according to the direction from which the voice came, the giant python was not far from him, about three or four zhang away.
Chen Fan tiptoed and sneaked towards the place where the giant python sounded, but he only walked about ten steps, and through the bushes and thorns, he suddenly saw a shocking picture.
Under the miserable white moonlight, an old man in gray with a gray beard was tightly wrapped around his body by a huge blue-scaled python, and the huge snake head like a bucket opened its bloody mouth, revealing its hideous fangs, aiming at the old man's round and bald head.
As long as the blue-scaled python swallowed it in one bite, the life of the gray-clothed old man was instantly lost.
Chen Fan was shocked to see it, his blood surged, he ignored his serious injuries and just recovered, flashed out, holding a branch, and roared angrily: "Uncle, I'm here to help you!"
This blue-scaled python, has not eaten for nearly a month, at this time almost fainted with hunger, finally caught a living person, was about to enjoy a good meal, unexpectedly from the side to kill a Cheng bite gold, it was furious, stretched out, stretched out the snake tail, and waved over!
Chen Fan rushed to save people, he was driven by instinct, and at this time, he saw the snake tail of the green scale python menacing, with grooves on the tail and just thorns, with a strong wind, he was shocked in his heart, and his expression was shocked, and then he suddenly remembered that his ancient skills had been lost, and there were no spells at all.
"Oops!" Finally, although Chen Fan lost all his spells, his dodge instinct was still there, so he rolled on the ground and neatly avoided the sharp attack of the blue-scaled python.
I only heard a loud "boom", and the snake tail that was as hard as iron swept over, instantly cutting off a stout towering tree at the waist, and the huge trunk collapsed, smashing the loess on the ground out of a big pit, and the dust was fierce in an instant, and the yellow leaves danced wildly.
Chen Fan was in a catastrophe, and he was lucky, only to see him inhale suddenly, and with both hands, he threw the mountain iron branch out, but unexpectedly, the hard branch hit the flesh of the blue-scaled python, and it actually clicked, and the sound was broken into two parts!
"Hiss!" The blue-scaled python was obviously enraged, it burst into flames, the head of the snake soared into the air, its fangs were like two sharp knives, and the cold light flashed in the night, yearning for Chen Fan to rush over!
All this happened too fast, only between the lightning and flint, Chen Fan looked horrified, and was about to react, but the head of the snake had already rushed to the front with lightning speed!
"It's over!" Chen Fan secretly screamed.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, the gray-clothed old man who was entangled in the snake body and couldn't move, suddenly opened his round eyes angrily, let out a long roar, and a palm of his left hand shot out, and a purple light rushed into the sky, quickly transforming into a dragon claw, and the dragon claw took off into the air, and poked into the blood basin mouth of the green scale python at an extremely terrifying speed.
Just in an instant, he suddenly heard the green scale python let out a sharp scream, and the dragon claws rushed out, Chen Fan fixed his eyes and saw that he could faintly see in the dragon claws, and in the soft purple light, there were some dark beads wrapped in them.
As soon as the strange bead came out, the blue-scaled python seemed to have lost its support, and its huge body fell to the ground with a bang, and with a bang, it smashed the ground into a huge pit, exploding in all directions, and the black gas suddenly appeared, which shocked Chen Fan's heart in horror.
The gray-clothed old man chanted a mantra in his mouth, and with a stroke of his left hand, he withdrew his inner breath, and the dragon claw cut through the sky, and came in response, only to see the old man turn his backhand, and there was one more thing in his palm, which was the strange ball, which was still exuding endless anger at the moment.
The gray-clothed old man looked at the beads in his hand, and smiled slightly on his turbid face, looking extremely satisfied.
Chen Fan saw that the other party showed this stunt, and his strength was far better than his own, so he suddenly understood that the old man in gray was just pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger, and he was not an idle person.
"Hey, boy, come here!" the old man in gray beckoned.
"The juniors don't know that the seniors are hunting here, and it's really ashamed to disturb rashly, if the seniors don't have anything to order, the juniors leave on their own. Chen Fan was cautious to make amends, but he did not step forward.
"You almost ruined the old man's big business just now, do you know?" shouted the gray-clothed old man.
"The juniors really don't know, otherwise, they wouldn't dare to act rashly. Chen Fan spoke in a low voice, and his attitude was very modest.
"But you are also out of kindness, the old man naturally doesn't blame you, just with such a small way as you, you dare to fight against the green scale python, isn't it too self-sufficient?"
"The lesson of the seniors is that the younger generations will not dare next time. Chen Fan saw that the gray-clothed old man was behaving strangely and had an impermanent attitude, so he bowed and planned to leave.
"You want to leave, how can there be such a cheap thing in the world?!" the gray-clothed old man suddenly became angry and shouted sharply.
"What do you want to do with your predecessors?" Chen Fan rushed up angrily, and replied angrily.
"Let me ask you, what does this dog have to do with you?" The old man in gray looked strange, pointed at Nubi with his left hand, and behaved like crazy.
"I'm its owner, why are you asking this!" Chen Fan was angry and funny.
"That's right, this vicious dog is greedy and treacherous, every day when the old man is relieved, he secretly takes away the barbecue meat on the stove, the old man hates it to the core, you are its master, how should this account be calculated?" The old man in gray poked his finger and scolded angrily.
Nubi bowed her head and snorted softly, as if she was ashamed of herself.
When Chen Fan heard this, he couldn't help but laugh dumbly, no wonder this year, Nubi has always been able to find fragrant barbecue, which turned out to be a masterpiece of the old man in gray!
"What are you laughing at, the old man is asking you, tell me, how are you going to pay for these barbecues?" the old man in gray was very dissatisfied, and asked with his fingers.
"The seniors said that what to do with it, even if the juniors want to hunt a hundred pheasants and two hundred wild dogs, the juniors have no regrets and dare not disobey. Chen Fanqiang couldn't help laughing, and his attitude was extremely humble.
"Fart, who told you a hundred pheasants, two hundred wild dogs?" said the old man in gray angrily.
"What do the seniors want the juniors to do?" Chen Fan smiled bitterly.
"Obviously there are one hundred and two pheasants, two hundred and six wild dogs, although the old man is old and weak, but his memory is no worse than yours, if you can't get back so many prey before the winter of the year after next, you will have a hard time to eat!" said the gray-clothed old man with a mouthful of spit on the ground, splitting his head and covering his face.
