Chapter 286: On the Correct Way to Choose a Hunting Target
"What! The demon pill was robbed?"
Xia Lian and Zhu Wan'e's expressions couldn't help but change when they heard this, everyone knew that the demon pill was the most valuable thing on the demon beast, and it was precisely because of this that even if the academy wanted to hand over the corpse of the demon beast, it also left the demon pill for the students to avoid eating too ugly. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Qin Hanbing nodded with a gloomy face: "They are in a hurry, as if they are going to meet somewhere, otherwise, the corpses of the demon beasts may be snatched by them." ”
Zhu Wan'e said angrily: "This is too reckless, isn't it! What about your signal canister? Why don't you send it out and let the people of the inspection team come over to administer justice?"
Pan Fatzi smiled bitterly and shook his head: "How can I use it, as soon as they came up, they surrounded us with crossbows, coerced us to put down the demon beast, took the demon pill and simply left, there was not even time for half a pillar of incense, we didn't even know what happened." ”
"Where's the vermilion pill, take it out and blow them up!"
Qin Hanbing exhaled: "They are members of the Tongyi Association......"
Zhu Wan'e, who was filled with righteous indignation, suddenly stopped talking, but it has been half a year since she entered the school, and the taboos in the college that should be known are basically clear, such as not being able to provoke people from several major clubs, and Tongyi Club is one of them.
"Tongyi Society?" Ye Xi couldn't help frowning when he heard this, not that he was afraid, but he had eaten and seen people, the deacons of the Tongyi Association had been killed, and the invitation of the Sun and Moon Alliance was also rejected if he refused. It's just a little hard to figure it out, reasoning with the great momentum of the Tongyi Association, I shouldn't care about the two demon pills of the beginner level of the seal master.
"We inquired at the camp last night......"
Seeing Ye Xi's doubts, Pan Fatzi took the opportunity to explain the inside story, it turned out that in addition to the group in the class cooperating with the hunting and inviting people to help, there was also a way to take a shortcut in this trial, that is, the club came forward to organize members to collectively conduct the trial.
It's a kind of community welfare.
Gathering manpower and repairing sealers together, it is naturally easy to hunt or more accurately beat demon beasts, so that not only can you hunt higher-level demon beasts, but also ensure each other's safety with mutual help, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone.
Of course, this has to be the kind of treatment that only people in the community can enjoy.
What Qin Hanbing and the two encountered was such a group of people, under the banner of the Tongyi Association, who calmly plundered other single groups with no background. And the people who were robbed were taken by the prestige of the Tongyi Association in the academy, and they also dared not speak out. According to the news that Pan Fatzi inquired about in the camp, not only was their demon pill robbed, but other groups also had similar encounters, but they all chose to swallow their anger and sigh to themselves that they were unlucky.
Hearing this, the good-tempered Xia Lian was also angry: "What about the inspection team? What about the academy instructors in the camp?
Ye Xi shook his head when he heard this, sure enough. Qin Hanbing helplessly spread his hands and explained: "They want to take care of it, but what about the evidence?"
Xia Lian opened her mouth, wanting to argue something, but in the end she could only keep silent.
There is indeed no evidence, let's take what happened to Qin Hanbing and the two of them, they were robbed in the mountains, there was no one left and right, even if they reported it to the academy tutor after they came out, the group of people could completely say that the demon pill was hunted by them, after all, the two demon beasts of arrow piercing and fangs are very common, and it is impossible to write the name of the hunter on the demon pill, there is no way to verify it.
What's more, even if the report has no effect, who can afford to retaliate afterwards?
Zhu Wan'e slapped her palm, her face full of unwillingness: "This doesn't work, that doesn't work, can we just just forget it?"
Just because they are members of the Tung Benefit Society...... Qin Hanbing naturally said this in his heart, people from official eunuch families are the best at judging the situation and sizing up the situation, although Zhu Wan'e is also the child of a powerful person, she is undoubtedly not as mature as Qin Hanbing.
Shaking his head, he sighed, "When I was robbed, I vaguely heard them say that this time the Tongyi Association acted collectively, and all the members of the association went to the depths of the mountain range, as if they were going to hunt a large demon beast...... In other words, in the next period of time, we don't have to worry about being robbed again. ”
This can be regarded as a kind of psychological comfort in desperation.
I have to say that the approach of the Tongyi Association is a bit disgusting, and others have worked hard to get the harvest of their lives, but they easily picked up the ready-made!
"Hmph, it's best that they were all killed in the mountains by that large demon beast!"
I can only curse verbally, and there is really nothing I can do about it. The power of the Tongyi Association is too great, and it is basically delusional to want to take revenge and go back.
Seeing that the atmosphere was depressed, and several people looked sullen, Ye Xi waved his hand and said: "Okay, there is a meeting in the mountains and rivers, and there is a reincarnation in heaven and earth, so there will be retribution sooner or later." Leave them alone, we continue to test. ”
After listening to Ye Xi's persuasion, although Qin Hanbing and the others were helpless and aggrieved, they could only cheer up and continue the hunt below. After all, the demon pill has been robbed, and it is useless to think about it, so it is better to kill a few more demon beasts in the next step to make up for the loss.
However, I don't know if it was affected by this, and then Ye Xi's luck was extremely bad, and in one afternoon, they went to three demon beast territories, but they found nothing.
Either ran away from home, or had been hunted, in short, the monster nest ** was empty, and it was a trip for nothing.
"What the hell is really damn it!" Bang, Pan Fat Man was depressed and put his foot on the mountain, this is a bear demon cave, but it is not surprising that the owner's house has long been far away, and there is only such a hole where the corpses of several beasts are hidden.
Qin Hanbing saw Ye Xi squatting on the ground on the side to check something, his heart moved, and he leaned over and squinted: "This is ...... Bloodstains?
Ye Xi bowed his head: "Well, the blood has not dried yet, this bear demon should have just been hunted not long ago, or it was injured and absconded, and it will not come back in a short time." ”
Qin Hanbing couldn't help frowning in surprise when he heard this: "So, we collided with a trial team?
Ye Xi was also thinking about this problem, and at the same time remembered the trap that was triggered and then restored, if he guessed correctly, there was indeed a trial team walking ahead of them now. To be honest, this probability is actually quite low, and with a trial range of hundreds of miles, about half a hundred trial groups, it should be difficult to bump into them by chance.
But since it has already been hit, it can only change the established route, otherwise it is likely that you will not even be able to drink the soup after you.
However, if the route was changed, then Ye Xi and the others would have to go south, and the southern direction was the direction that gradually penetrated into the interior of the Yougu Mountain Range.
After thinking about it, I made up my mind, "Change the road and go south, call the fat people and them over, and then I will open the way in front!"
Originally, Ye Xi was thinking of finding a few weaker demon beasts and letting Qin Hanbing and them practice their skills and accumulate more actual combat experience. But now that the situation has changed, I can't take care of it.
Qin Hanbing and the others had no opinion on Ye Xi's decision, they knew very well what it meant to go deep into the Ancient Mountain Range, but after nearly ten days of trial, they had become accustomed to obeying Ye Xi, or more precisely, trusting him.
Ye Xi didn't dare to live up to this trust, reversed his previous relaxed attitude, and walked solemnly at the front of the team, carefully checking for all kinds of unknown dangers that may exist.
And just as Ye Xi and the others were gradually going deeper into the mountains, in front of their original route, several young people who had been waiting for a long time groped back, and finally touched the bear demon cave.
"Ha, it's done!" a young man laughed out loud after carefully observing the footprints left on the ground, "Go back and tell Lao Tang that the target is moving closer to the predetermined location." ”
"It's not easy! This group of chicks is really very enduring, and after waiting for so many days, they finally took the bait!"
"If you want me to say that Lao Tang is making too much of a fuss, but it's just a few young people who have just entered school, what vigilance can they have? If you had listened to me earlier, cleared out the demon beasts they were going to hunt, and forced them to go deeper into the mountains, maybe this matter would be over now. ”
"Okay, after all, the old soup has suffered in the hands of the other party, it's normal to be cautious, let's go back......"
Either happy, relieved, or disapproving, several young people quickly left the place after making sure that the various trace information was correct, and disappeared into the mountains and mountains.
......
Ye Xi and the others were naturally completely unaware of what was happening behind them, and to be honest, they didn't dare to be distracted now, because the deeper they went into the Ancient Mountain Range, the more terrifying the danger they encountered.
If it is in the outer area, including the range of activities of demon beasts such as the arrow stabbing bird, it is actually not dangerous, because even some mortal mercenaries dare to set foot in it, in other words, as long as you do your homework in advance and inquire clearly, there are not many secrets there, and there are few uncontrollable factors that suddenly appear.
But it's hard to say in the depths of the mountains, this is a paradise for adventurers, and it's also a paradise for all kinds of high-level demon beasts, and the humans who will come here are basically not good at it, and there is very little useful information that has been circulated, and it's mostly hearsay, and it's not accurate. If you want to find out, you'll have to try it for yourself.
Of course, many people tried, and it never showed up again......
The time to go deep into the mountains on the first day was not good, and it was close to evening, Ye Xi and the others didn't have any ideas, so they simply found a place to rest.
The next day, Ye Xi took Qin Hanbing and a few people out to let out the wind, also known as casting a net, and the general process was to expand the scope of exploration as much as possible, and secretly remember the various demon beasts encountered on the way. Just remember, and don't rush to make a move.
On the third day, it's time to really step on the spot. On this day, Ye Xi only brought Qin Hanbing out, and around the selected demon beasts, he conducted a whole day of tracking and observation, observing its living habits, foraging habits, and the attack methods displayed. If necessary, I'll try it out a little bit or something......
From this, you can actually see Ye Xi's attitude of importance, you must know that when they hunted the arrows and fangs before, they went directly to the door and did not do any homework in advance, but now it is different, Ye Xi almost holds the rigorous attitude of a modern scientist, makes bold assumptions, and carefully verifies, lest he miss any key information.
After observing, before sunset, Ye Xi returned safely with Qin Hanbing. Immediately, there was a heated debate.
"The red-tailed fox, the howling moon demon wolf, the ghost-faced tiger, the mountain-shaking man bear...... The general information has been introduced, so let's choose one. ”
When the words fell, Qin Hanbing took the lead in proposing: "I choose to hunt the red-tailed fox!"
Ye Xi said calmly: "Reason." ”
"First of all, its cultivation is at the middle level of the Seal Master, which is lower than the high-level Howling Moon Demon Wolf and the Regretful Mountain Man Bear, and is equal to the Ghost Face Tiger. However, the Ghost-faced Tiger has strong offensive methods, and it comes and goes like the wind, it is extremely difficult to hunt, not to mention, and there will be casualties if you are not careful. Compared to this, the red-tailed fox is much weaker, so I chose to hunt it. ”
Pan Fat Man frowned: "But this red-tailed fox's methods are a little weird, you also say that you can't understand its way of foraging, and you don't even need to show up, as long as you get a little closer, ambush aside, those prey are like enchanted, crashing and killing on the stone by themselves, or killing each other...... Can we withstand this means?"
"There are five of us, just be careful, it can't control them all. ”
"But what if it controls Brother Ye? Who of us can beat it? Or ...... Whichever one you control, can you do it?"
"I ...... Aren't you raising the bar?"
Zhu Wan'e echoed and raised her hand: "I don't agree to hunt the red-tailed fox either, it's so ...... So small, and so cute!"
Qin Hanbing was stunned, subconsciously raised his hand to stroke his forehead, and exhaled a long breath: "Whew...... We're fighting monsters, what are you thinking?"
"Anyway, I don't agree, how about the Howling Moon Demon Wolf?"
Ye Xi still said: "Reason." ”
"Look at it for yourself, it's not a tiger or a bear, it's definitely a wolf that's easy to bully in comparison. And we've killed so many wolves before, it's not a big deal to kill another one now. ”
"Heh, according to your logic, that fox is better to bully. ”
"Why are you so cruel, I misjudged you......"
"Okay, okay, let's discuss, don't get angry. Otherwise, don't be a red-tailed fox or a Howling Moon Wolf, how about directly engaging that ghost-faced tiger?"
"Fatty, don't stir up the mud, hunting monsters is not child's play. I'll choose the red-tailed fox and raise my hand in agreement!"
"Hmph, I choose the Howling Moon Sky Wolf, raise your left hand in agreement!"
“......”
After such an argument, it is natural that nothing will come out. But this is also a scene that Ye Xi wants to see, everyone trusts him no problem, but he can't be a dictator himself, after all, one person is short, two people are long, and no one dares to guarantee that his choice must be correct.
In the fierce voice, Ye Xi noticed Xia Lian who wanted to speak on the side, she was the only one who did not participate in the quarrel, and her heart moved: "Senior Sister Xia, what do you think?"
"Huh?" Xia Lian seemed to be shocked when she heard this, and subconsciously waved her hand hurriedly, "No, no, uh, I'll just listen to you." ”
As soon as she opened her mouth, she immediately attracted two people who couldn't argue on the side, and Zhu Wan'e immediately decided to pull allies: "Okay, Xia Lian, listen to me, our sisters work together to hunt that wolf of the moon!"
"Senior Sister Xia, don't listen to her nonsense, you have to make a calm judgment......"
"Okay, you let Xia Lian say it herself. Ye Xi waved his hand to interrupt, looking at Xia Lian, who was in a dilemma, and smiled encouragingly, "It's okay, it's okay to talk about it, we are a team." ”
After hesitating for a while, Xia Lian said cautiously: "I want to choose that regret, regret mountain man bear?"
Several people couldn't help but be stunned when they heard this, their argument just now had been ignoring the regret mountain man bear, because the latter had the highest cultivation among the four demon beasts, and his combat power was also the most terrifying.
Ye Xi raised his eyebrows: "Oh, what's the reason?"
"Senior Brother Fangcai, when you introduced, you said that this bear is not fast, so ......" Wei paused, Xia Lianqiao blushed, and said embarrassedly, "So I think even if we can't beat it, we should be able to run away safely...... No, it's a safe retreat. ”
The scene was quiet, several people looked at each other, Ye Xi suddenly stroked his palm and smiled: "Ha, it's a good idea!"
