Chapter 4 Dangerous Targets

Eighty percent of the area of the Ghost Flame Domain belongs to the red land, desolate and bleak, the vegetation is mostly red ghost wood, dry sand grass, most of the beasts that can adapt to this harsh environment are fierce and abnormal, especially the beasts in the depths of the mountains, someone has seen a giant tiger beast with saber teeth and claws, ferocious and terrifying, bloodthirsty and killing.

The bobtail, the main source of food for people, is one of the few beasts that feeds on dry sand grass, and there is no danger in hunting this beast, and it only takes two adult men to subdue an adult bobtail. Bobcats reproduce quickly and are also prey for other beasts.

However, when the Ghost Yan Clan expropriated resources, they removed the short-tailed beast meat from the list, and many Chi tribes had a headache for it, and every large-scale hunt would have sacrifices, but they were helpless.

Chihuang followed Chen Lin and went up a deserted mountain road, at first at the foot of the mountain, there were occasional traces of bobcatfish, and the road was also flat and spacious, and the further up the mountain, the more rugged the road became.

As the sun passed noon, there was no sign of the road under their feet, and from this time on, they needed to be extremely careful, and the hunters were in good spirits, and every one of them had eyes as open as eagle's-eyed, alert and focused.

Chihuang could clearly feel that the atmosphere had become tense, and he couldn't help but be nervous, but curiosity arose in the tension.

The people camped on the spot, leaving a few men to guard the horse supplies, and the rest of the men were divided into ten groups, each headed by two or three experienced hunters, who searched in different directions.

Chihuang followed behind Chen Lin, their steps were very light, and they looked around at the same time, and after walking for a long time, Chen Lin was very keen to find the lair of a fierce beast.

Chen Lin motioned for everyone to hide, he took out a bottle of red liquid from his back pocket, pulled out the cork, and the fishy and extraordinary smell overflowed.

Chi Huang asked in a whisper, and Chen Lin told him that this liquid was called Wujiao blood, which was made from the blood of a short-tailed beast mixed with the red crystal pith, and it was more attractive to those carnivorous beasts than flesh and blood.

Chen Lin dripped the blood of the black Jiao on a stone, and then threw the stone at the entrance of the beast's den, and when the beast poked its head out, he had already drawn the bowstring.

An arrow pierced the beast's skull!

When he got closer, Chihuang saw that it was a big lizard with a sharp mouth.

Is this all hunting? Chihuang's first contact.

Chen Lin told him that this cave is not very big, and there are no powerful beasts living in it, only that kind of big cave will be inhabited by large beasts.

When hunting large beasts, you need to use traps, and when the traps don't work, you will finally get on the people.

……

By night, everyone had returned to the camp, ten groups, each of which had hunted two or three wild beasts, and only two had suffered some minor injuries.

Of course, this is just a warm-up, as they gradually go deeper into the mountains and forests, they will encounter very terrible beasts later, and then they can no longer be grouped.

The crowd was chatting energetically.

Suddenly, without warning, a deafening tiger roar resounded through the mountains and forests, birds and beasts scattered, and the earth trembled violently at that moment!

Rao is a tall, strong, and strong man of these people, and they are all frightened and restless at the moment.

"Don't be alarmed, don't mess with yourself!" Chen Lin shouted at the group of hunters.

The roar emboldened them, and the commotion in the crowd disappeared.

"You stay here and don't move, I'll go and find out." Chen Lin said to everyone.

A woman named Qiu Chan beside him insisted on following, but Chen Lin couldn't resist her, so he allowed it.

The hunting team was temporarily handed over to a middle-aged man named Zhao Yi to be commanded in order to deal with emergencies, this person is also a hunting family and has good skills.

The two then walked cautiously in the direction of the source of the sound.

The figures of the two quickly disappeared from everyone's sight, and as they got closer and closer to the source of the sound, the surrounding wind began to howl, and then continued to get closer, flying sand and rocks, broken branches and trees in front of them, and there were constantly terrifying vibrations, as if there were two powerful beings in a duel.

Chen Lin and Qiu Chan slowly approached the source of the sound in the face of the wind and sand, and pushed aside a dense and tall clump of dry sand grass, in the night, they vaguely saw two huge figures staggered, but they didn't wait for them to see clearly, the wind and sand around were more abundant, the two quickly closed their eyes, and after a while, the wind and waves were calm, and the two opened their eyes again, only to see a large, scarred saber-toothed tiger in the pit not far away, and a huge saber-toothed tiger was biting the corpse of a giant ape that was slightly larger than its equally scarred body.

Beast psychic qi can give birth to spiritual intelligence, it is a demon beast, demon beasts have hierarchical levels, the initial psychic wisdom is an ordinary demon beast, and the demon spirit crystal nucleus condensed by aura is derived from the body, which is a big demon.

Judging from the fluctuations in spiritual power, it was obvious that there was a battlefield between two ordinary demon beasts in front of him, which ended in the victory of the saber-toothed tiger.

Chen Lin believes that this is a perfect opportunity, at this time the saber-toothed tiger is seriously injured, just lay a trap to lure the saber-toothed tiger to take the bait, there is a great certainty that they will kill it, and if they move quickly, they may also harvest a mutilated giant ape corpse.

The saber-toothed tiger is a monster beast that can be said to be full of treasures, and hunting and killing a saber-toothed tiger can make Xishan Town worry-free for three years.

After making up his mind, Chen Lin and Qiu Chan returned to the crowd.

After listening to Chen Lin's plan, everyone was stunned, most of them had never seen a saber-toothed tiger, but without exception, they had heard terrible rumors about the saber-toothed tiger, and killing the saber-toothed tiger was something they had never considered and never dared to think about, and many people retreated.

Chen Lin had expected that hunting such an extremely dangerous target would be afraid of normal people.

He persuaded everyone that the target saber-toothed tiger and the giant ape duel, narrowly won, at this time it was already covered in bruises, as long as they led the saber-toothed tiger into the trap laid in advance, they would definitely be able to kill it, and after hunting the saber-toothed tiger, they could also get a giant ape corpse, once they succeeded, Xishan Town would be carefree in the next five years.

Hearing Chen Lin's words, everyone couldn't help but be moved, although they all knew the danger of hunting the saber-toothed tiger, and they would die if they were not careful, but the high risk was accompanied by high returns, in the past, they had to carry out two large-scale hunts every year to cope with the collection of the Ghost Yan Clan, and now the Ghost Yan Clan has added a levy, according to the budget, four large-scale hunts a year are required, and this hunting can keep Xishan Town safe for five years, this is a rare opportunity, and they have no reason to miss it.

After about half an hour of discussion, everyone finally agreed and decided to hunt the saber-toothed tiger!

After making this decision, everyone quickly fell asleep, recuperating for tomorrow's hunt, leaving only two people to stand sentry.

The next day, early in the morning.

Chen Lin is commanding everyone to set traps in the forest, and all kinds of traps such as fine iron trapped beasts, trapped stingers, and steel knife strangulation all come in handy, and under Chen Lin's careful layout and everyone's orderly actions, more than ten traps cooperate perfectly to form a big killing array.

Now all you need to do is lead the saber-toothed tiger into the trap, and the hundred-dozen people hiding in the branches will sound the death knell for the saber-toothed tiger!

Chen Lin felt that it was his duty to invite you into the urn, and this time he refused Qiu Chan's companionship, and his attitude was resolute, not giving Qiu Chan a chance.

Looking at Chen Lin's back, everyone was worried and expectant, their eyes focused on that direction, and the hunting bow in their hands was held tighter.

……

Chen Lin returned to the battlefield between the saber-toothed tiger and the giant ape, followed the dried blood trail to find the saber-toothed tiger's lair, and then wandered around, finding the best way to escape, and then, he cautiously approached the saber-toothed tiger's lair.

The hunter's eyes were very keen, and Chen Lin saw at a glance the huge figure of the saber-toothed tiger in the dark cave, the latter was biting the flesh and blood of the giant ape, the flesh and blood of this demon beast contained a relatively pure aura, which could not only heal injuries, but also be used to improve cultivation, and its effect far exceeded that of the spirit crystal, which was a cultivator's dream.

Chen Lin took the bow and arrow from his back and glanced at the saber-toothed tiger, his huge body was covered in blood, adding a bit of evil spirit! After a night, the saber-toothed tiger's injuries were still very serious, and it seemed that the giant ape had injured the saber-toothed tiger's vital point, but unfortunately he still died tragically under the sharp claws of the saber-toothed tiger.

It's not that Chen Lin hasn't hunted demon beasts, on the contrary, there are not a few demon beasts that have died in his hands, and many of them are in their heyday, but that was a long time ago.

Facing it now, even if he has become weaker, he is still completely sure of dealing with a seriously injured saber-toothed tiger.
