Qi Wanli, who was sleeping, suddenly shivered and woke up from his sleep. When I woke up completely, I found that the quilt covering my body had slipped to the ground at some point, so it was no wonder that I was awakened by freezing in the cold cave.

"It's getting colder......"

Qi Wanli climbed out of bed, put on his coat, walked out of his room, and saw through a fist-sized hole in the roof of the cave that the sky was gradually turning white.

"Wake up, go for morning exercises. He just wanted to get up and get some water to drink, but it was already dawn, which meant that the usual morning exercise time was about the same, so he gave up the plan to sleep back, and spent some effort out of the cave and climbed to a relatively empty place on the Black Rock Mountain.

At this time, the weather was already very cold, although there was no snow, but the sea breeze was blowing with a biting chill, like a small ice blade. Qi Wanli let out a sigh of relief, and the mist condensed and formed out of his mouth, and then drifted into the wind.

It's already winter.

Qi Wanli walked to the open area, took off his shirt and shoes, revealing the slightly dark muscles of his upper body, the body shape was perfectly proportioned, and the lines of each muscle were just right. He expertly warmed up and began his daily workout.

Compared with the set of exercises that he just started to practice the dark element push, Qi Wanli is now practicing much more difficult, in addition to high-intensity core strength exercises, including a lot of joint twisting, body bending and other flexibility exercises. He finished a set of exercises, took a short break, and immediately repeated the second repetition, and so on five times before stopping.

Immediately after, Qi Wanli sat cross-legged on the ground, folded his hands behind his back, pressed his fingertips against the lower end of his neck, and began to do the ten movements that attracted divine power to wander around his body.

At this time, his body was covered with hot sweat, and his whole body was emitting mist in the cold winter weather, and the round secret talisman pierced at the big vertebral point was slightly red, which was a manifestation of the extreme fullness of qi and blood.

This is already the fourth month that Qi Wanli has practiced the Dark Yuan's modified Martial Mystic Method, and a few days ago, he had also reached the peak realm of the second-order martial artist without any hindrance, and he could try to break through the third-order and advance to the transcendent at any time.

In this process, he didn't ask Dark Yuan how to try to mobilize the divine power in the backup energy core to help him advance, in his opinion, since the divine power between heaven and earth can be used, then use it first. It is unknown how much divine power that mysterious energy core has, and it has been diligently helping itself replenish its strength every day, in case it runs out of energy at a critical time in the future, it is really a big joke.

If you can hoard, you should first hoard, which is the fine tradition of Chinese diligence and thrift.

What's more, the divine power that is full of this heaven and earth can be described as endless, Qi Wanli can feel the divine power around him at any time, and the divine power he absorbs when he is cultivating now is like using a larger bucket to draw water in the river and sea, so he doesn't have to worry about it at all.

It's just that the promotion to the third-order transcendent grand master will inevitably cause changes in the surrounding divine power, and other people in the White Bear Tribe may not be able to perceive it, but Fang Bajiu can't be unaware, and then he will not be able to explain why he can break through the third-order without the real martial mystical method, so now Qi Wanli can only press the realm first, and exercise his muscles first like everyone else in the tribe, so that they can temporarily carry more divine power, and wait until one day they leave the tribe, and then make a breakthrough.

"I will leave one day, but this is the place where I sleep, and the place where I have come to this era, which is my home, and I will come back often after that. ”

Qi Wanli thought so, opened his eyes, and then saw Tian Yuanxing striding in his direction with an iron bow on his back.

"Brother Qi, you're exercising in the morning again, you're so diligent!

Qi Wanli grabbed the towel he brought and wiped the sweat on his body, and said with a smile: "Why didn't you bring that shotgun today?"

Last month, while exploring the perimeter, they found a relatively well-preserved shotgun and two boxes of ammunition in the basement of a dilapidated house, both of which were still usable due to the excellent storage conditions. As a former firearms enthusiast, Qi Wanli also made basic maintenance of this classic gun. But Qi Wanli still wanted to practice his body more, and this shotgun was handed over to Tian Yuanxing to use, but he didn't expect Tian Yuanxing to love and love it very much, even if he went out hunting for a day without a shot, he would take it with him.

"I don't need that gun today. By the way, Brother Qi, I brought you something good. Tian Yuanxing said, throwing a package to Qi Wanli, Qi Wanli opened it and saw that it was a set of leather clothes and a pair of fist armor.

"Xiao Fang spent a few months, and finally gave you the materials of the mutant night demon to make the finished product, that skull, she said she wanted to give you a helmet, but that thing is too hard, and it will take some time, you use these first. ”

Qi Wanli curiously took out the leather coat and fist armor, these two objects can no longer see the disgusting appearance of the night demon at all, the leather coat is soft and uniform to the touch, there are no color defects, and the fist armor seems to be made of financial materials and bone, and the surface is matte material.

"Give it a try. Tian Yuanxing said with a smile.

Qi Wanli put on a leather coat and put on a fist armor, and found that both of them fit him perfectly. There is also a small mechanism on the fist armor, there are four small holes in the back of the hand, when Qi Wanli clenches his fist hard, it will touch the mechanism inside the fist armor, and four sharp spikes will immediately pop out of the small holes, and the spikes are shining with cold light, which is clearly made of the finger bones of the mutated night demon after being repolished. And when he releases his fist, the spikes automatically retract.

"It's a bit powerful!" Qi Wanli swung his fist with great interest and slammed it into a tree the size of a basin not far away, and at the same time clenched his fist, and the spikes that popped out penetrated into the tree without resistance, piercing deeply. He let go of his hand and withdrew into his fist with a spike, leaving four small black holes in the tree.

Tian Yuanxing was also very happy to see that Qi Wanli liked boxing armor and leather clothing, so he wanted to take him to hunt with him, saying that it was just right for him to try out new equipment. Qi Wanli himself also had such thoughts, of course he would not refuse, so he walked with Tian Yuanxing.

"Brother Tian, you haven't said it yet, why don't you bring a gun today?" Qi Wanli asked as he played with his fist armor.

Tian Yuanxing stretched out his hand and touched his bald head, and said, "It's winter, I don't dare to use a gun." In winter, many beasts hide and hibernate, and the defense of humans is greatly improved, at this time, many hungry powerful monsters will come out to forage during the day, and the low temperature in winter will also greatly alleviate the damage caused by the sun, they may appear anywhere, the sound of the gun is too loud, I am afraid that it will cause unnecessary trouble. ”

Qi Wanli nodded: "No wonder you always say that winter is very difficult, it is really difficult to hunt in this situation." ”

"Yes......" Tian Yuanxing sighed and said with emotion: "In the tribal territory before, we still had our own animals and fields to grow crops, so it would not be so difficult in winter. But this year is different, there is no natural danger in the original place, we can't withstand the tide of a large number of monsters, and now this cave is safe, but there is no way to farm and breed here, and food can only rely on hunting. Alas, there are always places of difficulty. ”

The two chatted casually, searching for traces of their prey.

After these months of hunting creatures, Qi Wanli also has a general understanding of some of the living habits and behavior patterns of the common beasts around, and knows that the favorite sword pig herd of the tribe people does not hibernate, but they are still more afraid of cold, and they should leave their original territory to go to a warmer place in winter.

The two of them walked around the place where the sword pigs were originally more frequented, and found no fresh feces or other traces, which further confirmed this idea.

It took them more than an hour to expand their search, and it took them more than an hour to finally find a large number of footprints left by the sword pig herd in a soft mud field.

Qi Wanli leaned over and observed carefully for a while, and said: "There was a heavy rain three days ago, if the sword pig herd passed by before that, the traces will definitely disappear, although the footprints here are not fresh, but the time will never exceed two days, the sword pig herd has limited migration ability, it is more than five kilometers away from the place where they originally lived, they will not go too far." ”

Tian Yuanxing took over and said: "Sword pigs generally like sunny slopes, but the direction where their footprints point is basically plains, and they can't find enough food...... Alas, trouble. ”

"What's wrong?" Qi Wanli asked with a frown.

Tian Yuanxing pondered his words for a moment and said: "If you guess correctly, the sword pig herd should have gone to the ruins of a town seven kilometers away, and the ruins of that town have many buildings that can withstand the cold wind of winter, and they are covered by bushes, and there are many small animals living in them, which is a very good place for them to go." ”

"However, the entire Nanlin Peninsula knows that the ruins of that town cannot be left casually. Decades ago, two Rank 8 Rank Transcendents fought a great battle against an incomparably terrifying monster king there, and in the end, both sides were defeated and fell together in the ruins of the town. At that time, the two sides of the battle were not only these three powerful individuals, but also their respective men, but after the battle, the terrifying and uncontrolled power overflowed and killed all the creatures on the spot. ”

"Since then, the ruins of that town have a name, it is called 'Graveless Town' by us Nanlin people, there are a large number of corpses exposed outdoors, not only that, the battle of the top transcendents has made it very weird, those corpses have been mutated to varying degrees, and it is very dangerous. Despite this, there are still many scavengers who infiltrate the town of No Grave to pick up corpses, trying to find valuable materials from those corpses...... Most of those scavengers are undocumented, and they are equally dangerous. ”

Qi Wanli heard a chill when he heard this, and asked incredulously: "This kind of ghost place, will the sword pig herd go?"

Tian Yuanxing nodded and said, "Actually, if you don't try to touch those corpses, it's still very safe, sword pigs are not scavengers, they won't touch corpses when they have other food." So for them, Graveless Town is safer. But not for us, in case there are scavengers, for them, the contents of the corpses are treasures, living people...... It is enough to turn a living person into a corpse. ”

Qi Wanli raised his eyebrows, and his voice was a little lower: "Will they kill?"

Tian Yuanxing shrugged: "Of course they will, these guys have no identity, they run away when they kill someone, and no one knows who they are at all." You see, with this leather coat and this pair of fist armor on you, as long as you run into a scavenger, you will definitely be targeted. ”

Qi Wanli's childhood experience determined that the person he hated the most was the murderer who killed for petty profits, he didn't care about the tragic life stories and distorted social factors behind those guys, he only knew that no one had the right to deprive others of their lives at will. It is precisely because of this that he became a criminal policeman.

Of course, this era is different from before, he no longer has a huge state apparatus as a backup to hunt down these murderers, and there is no court to pronounce a sentence on them, but his professional habits over the years still make him feel like a stump after knowing about it.

"Be careful, our tribe is nearby, if we really run into scavengers, we just need to explain the situation, they don't want to come against a tribe of four hundred people, and we have no actual conflict of interest with them. But if you can't hunt any more prey, you'll have to chew wild vegetable roots tomorrow. After thinking about it carefully, Qi Wanli suppressed his police thinking and said slowly.

Tian Yuanxing nodded, agreed with Qi Wanli's suggestion, and muttered: "I should have brought the gun if I knew it." ”
