The small villages hidden in the valley have more than 600 inhabitants who live a self-sufficient life, they are a small branch of the barbarians, and the old patriarch is responsible for liaison with other villages, sometimes leading the young hunters of the village, going out to unite with the people of other villages for hunting and various exchanges.

There are a total of thirty-one people who went out hunting this time, and the person who led the team was the nephew of the old patriarch, named Teng Xing'an, who was more than two hundred years old, and his level was not lower than that of the Mythical Realm God Clan.

After adding Ye Yunyang, Mei Yu and Li Hao, the hunting team became thirty-four people.

Mei Yu has the lowest rank in the team, but no one looks down on her, it was she who rescued the old patriarch in righteousness, and she was the great benefactor of all the villagers.

Ye Yunyang took the Fang Tian painting halberd from the young barbarian, Li Hao took the hand crossbow and sleeve arrows and other things, assembled them as quickly as possible, and the hunting team set off.

Today's weather is good, the sky is clear, and the gentle breeze blows on the face, which makes people feel very comfortable.

Mei Yu walked in the middle of the team, and the hunters formed an oval formation with her as the center, which was to ensure her safety, Ye Yunyang and Li Hao were also in the center and were treated equally.

Teng Xing'an walked in the front, and next to Ye Yunyang was a young hunter in his early twenties, holding a rusty horse chopping sword in his hand, his face was slightly pale, and the hand holding the handle of the knife would shake unconsciously.

It was his first time on a hunting event, so he was a little nervous.

After talking, Ye Yunyang learned that his name was Mi Yun and he was Teng Xing'an's nephew.

"What, are you nervous or excited?" Ye Yunyang asked with a smile.

Mi Yun nodded: "Yes! Our main task this time is not for food, but to find spiritual objects for the clan to increase their cultivation, these things are difficult to hunt." ”

Hearing the word spiritual object, Li Hao expressed great interest and asked, "What kind of thing can be called a spiritual object?"

Mi Yun shook his head, this kid was a little wooden, simply put, his brain was not very bright, he didn't know how to answer, and he blushed in a hurry.

Mei Yu opened his mouth and said, "In their dictionary, all items that can be used to improve cultivation, detoxification, and increase body functions can be called spiritual objects. When I first came over, the old patriarch used a thing called the Fire Spirit Pill as a hospitality, and after eating it, it can increase people's mystical power, which is very magical, and the Fire Spirit Pill is a spiritual thing. ”

"Yes!" Mi Yun glanced at Mei Yu with a grateful gaze, he thought that Mei Yu helped him out of the siege, and then said: "One of our missions this time is to hunt the Fire Spirit Pill, it comes from the fire beetle, my uncle knows several breeding grounds of the fire beetle, with him leading the way, we will definitely have a bumper harvest." ”

Ye Yunyang saw Li Hao's confused appearance and asked, "Haozi, haven't you heard of the Fire Spirit Pill?"

Li Hao shook his head: "I've never heard of it." ”

Ye Yunyang frowned, and asked again: "Millet, is the fire beetle a beast that has only appeared in recent years?"

Mi Yun shook his head: "Of course not, there have always been fire beetles, and the patriarch grandfather said that since the first generation of barbarians settled here, they have known how to obtain the fire spirit pill from the fire beetle's body, and take the fire spirit pill to increase their cultivation." ”

Ye Yunyang turned his head to look at Li Hao, meaning such a good thing, you, the Li family, don't know, whether the elders will deliberately hide it, or they don't know about it at all.

Li Hao spread his hands, he couldn't answer such a question.

As the team marched forward, they encountered several small beasts, and the hunters showed off their archery skills, and none of the prey that came into sight escaped.

Ye Yunyang expressed his admiration, you must know that the hunters use bows and arrows is extremely ordinary, Teng Xing'an's hand is the best in the group, the arrows are made by the hunters themselves, it is almost impossible to find an arrow with a straight shaft, more or less with a slight curve, the arrow has been used many times, it is covered with large and small gaps, and some of the gaps are still with black dried blood.

But such bows and arrows are used by hunters with such skill, and almost everyone can make sure that the arrows are not missed.

For Ye Yunyang, who is not good at archery, this skill is enough to make him throw himself to the ground, and even Mei Yu, who has good archery, expressed his admiration.

Ye Yunyang was even thinking, if the barbarians were equipped with the same equipment as the Protoss, would the Protoss still have an advantage in front of them?

If they were given better equipment than the Protoss, wouldn't the Protoss only be abused.

At noon, the team stopped to eat, and Teng Xing'an asked people to take out the prepared dried meat and fill their stomachs with mountain spring water.

Ye Yunyang observed that the hunters cherished food very much, and refused to waste even a little bit of meat on the bones.

Li Hao also discovered this, and was glad that there was no waste during the morning meal, otherwise he, the eldest and youngest of the Li family, would be even more unpopular with the barbarians.

Eating dry food is to save time, half an hour later, the team set off on time, the hunters have a good sense of time, Teng Xing'an stood up in less than five seconds, everyone followed and stood up, there was no need to talk at all, everyone continued on the road with a tacit understanding.

The Protoss prides itself on the high quality of its people, but when fighting against the beasts attacking the city, many people will choose to retreat in order to survive, and they must be supervised by the elders of the city defense department in order to enforce the order.

After walking more than ten miles forward, Teng Xing'an raised his right fist, signaled everyone to slow down, and at the same time lowered his voice and said: "There is a gathering place of fire beetles in front, I also led the team here last time, there were more than one hundred and sixty at that time, we hunted less than eighty, a year and a half later, they should have recovered to about one hundred and forty." ”

Endless hunting is one of the creeds of hunters, which has been passed down by them for thousands of years, leaving a way for prey to survive and reproduce, and also a chance for future generations to survive.

Teng Xing'an continued: "Everyone, pay attention, fire beetles can spew very corrosive venom, once stuck to the body, it will burn the skin and muscle tissue, don't panic after being hit, let alone touch it with your hands, otherwise your fingers will not be saved." The correct way is to quickly wipe it with a burlap and then throw it away, at most it will burn the skin, and it will heal itself in a few days, have you remembered it?"

Everyone said in a deep voice: "Remember." ”

Mi Yun took out a few thick pieces of linen from his backpack and handed them to Ye Yunyang, Mei Yu and Li Hao.

"Thank you. Ye Yunyang smiled.

"You're welcome, as it should be. Mi Yun smiled innocently.

The team was scattered, and the formation that was too concentrated was more vulnerable to the fire beetle's venom attack, and it was the best choice to break it into pieces, and the four experienced hunters were responsible for protecting Ye Yunyang and the three, and they were the last to enter the beetle's nest.

Sou!

Teng Xing'an shoots out a feathered arrow, and the fire beetle crawling rapidly in front of it in the middle of the side, the arrow pierces the junction of the beetle's head and back, and nails it to the ground.

The fire beetle resembles an enlarged version of the seven-star ladybug, with a diameter of more than thirty centimeters, the size of a basin, a flat head, mostly hidden in a hard shell protruding from its back, a three-inch-long antennae next to its eyes, mouthparts located under its eyes, and an abdomen with six powerful legs, which move extremely quickly.

Burst...... Swish!

The fire beetle hidden in the grass on the right spewed venom, like a meteor, and flew towards Tengxing'an.

Teng Xing'an is very experienced, and he has already made dodge movements when he hears the sound, instead of first determining the direction in which the venom is flying, which is a very clever approach.

The speed of the venom is very fast, but if there is a slight flash, it will be hit, and if you don't dodge it in time, when you see the venom flying, you will basically be hit.

The venom flew past him and hit the trunk behind him, the inch-thick bark burst on the spot, the sawdust flew everywhere, and the venom made a snorting sound, emitting white smoke and violently corroding the trunk, leaving a deep pit the size of a fist.

Ye Yunyang raised his eyebrows, the venom of the Heart Dao Fire Beetle was fierce enough.

Li Hao raised his crossbow and aimed it at the fire beetle in the grass, and then pulled the crossbow machine.

Sou!

While...... Boom!

The bolt hits the beetle, but is bounced off by its smooth shell and falls into the grass.

"How can this be?" Li Hao said that he couldn't accept it, although the hand crossbow was small, but because of the excellent craftsmanship and the materials used, it was not inferior to Teng Xing'an's compound bow in terms of range or strength.

Mi Yun explained: "The shell of the fire beetle is very hard and smooth, and with its arc-like shape, it can only be killed unless it hits the junction of the head and back, that is, the neck, and it is useless to shoot elsewhere." ”

Li Hao raised his crossbow again, gave up as soon as he aimed at the fire beetle, and said, "I don't think I have the ability to shoot it in the neck, what about you two?"

Mei Yu shook his head, Ye Yunyang hadn't said anything, he handed the crossbow to Mi Yun: "Come on." ”

Mi Yun also shook his head, but he raised the mulberry bow in his hand and said, "I'm more used to using it." ”

It turned out that he was not used to using a crossbow, Ye Yunyang nodded slightly, Mi Yun took out a feather arrow from the quiver, opened the bow and held his breath.

Sou!

The speed of the feather arrow is not fast, and the strength of the mulberry bow is much worse than that of the compound bow, but it does not affect the accuracy of the feather arrow hitting the neck of the fire beetle.

Li Hao was completely convinced, Mi Yun's archery skills had surpassed most of the gods, you must know that he was hunting with the team for the first time, and he had only practiced archery in the village before.

While dodging the venom, the hunters seized the opportunity to release arrows, and within a few moments, more than forty fire beetles had been crucified to the ground.

Teng Xing'an immediately ordered: "Throw torches, disperse other fire beetles, and quickly clean up the battlefield." ”

More than two dozen hunters lit torches at the same time and threw them out, forming an arc-shaped line in front of them, and the fire beetles were afraid of the fireworks and retreated backwards until they fled without a trace.

Teng Xing'an waved his hand, and the hunters stepped forward quickly, each facing a fire beetle, their movements were very skillful, first using a dagger to pry open the shell of the fire beetle, and then cut an inch-deep hole in it, and a red bead appeared.

Take out the beads, then pull out the feather arrow and put it back in the sac, hand the fire spirit bead to Teng Xing'an, and finally pick up the torch and extinguish it, and the task is completed.
