"The [Aoyama Hunting Ground] station has arrived, please get off the train in an orderly manner."

Just when the two were "talking happily", the steampunk-style bus suddenly sounded the radio automatically.

Ji Nian turned his head to see the cart slowly parked outside a vine-wrapped, moss-covered bluestone wall, and in the distance were endless mountains.

The clouds and mist on it are light, like a layer of light gauze and white man, flickering far and near, if it is about to leave, and it is like a few essays of an excellent painter, wantonly smeared in the distant blue sky.

"What a great place." Ji Nian couldn't help but mumble to himself.

I have to say, sometimes, things under the world are really interesting.

Taoyuan Secret Land is a well-known ghost nest in the land of Kyushu, but it has a beautiful and thousands of miles of paradise.

And these 100,000 green mountains are also a paradise for ghouls, mountain spirits, fierce beasts and poisonous insects, but they also have a fresh beauty in the style of primary school Chinese textbooks.

It feels like the Langlang Mountain that the little pig demon wants to get out of in the anime "Strange Tales of China", which is majestic and magnificent, fresh and natural.

"Brother Nian, let's go, let's go."

Jiang Cha jumped from the back of the car to Ji Nian's side, but his eyes glanced at Yingtai, who was concentrating on playing games.

As the old saying goes: those who are close to Zhu are red, and those who are close to ink are black.

In the past, the eldest lady who hated no good teacher and studied with a sword finally became an Internet addicted girl who was addicted to the Internet every day and ranked every night under the influence of the bad seed of Ji Nian.

If it weren't for Kaling's body, Ji Nian would have taken her to get glasses.

"Frog fun, glory god of war one, two, three, four, five, six...... So many stars, Brother Nian, you are a ...... of Ka Ling" Jiang Cha opened his mouth, and only after a while did he hold back two words: "NB." ”

"Maybe it's talented."

Ji Nian said, got up slowly, moved his body briefly, and then reached out and patted the shoulder of the little girl who was addicted to the Internet, and said softly: "Yingtai, enter the sea to play a single machine, I'm going to hunt." ”

The little girl played a silly [Resentful Dog] emoji in the comment area, carefully put the mobile phone into a coarse cloth bag tied around the waist of the scholar's uniform, and then turned into a wisp of green smoke and fell into Ji Nian's eyebrows.

Closing his eyes and feeling that the little girl had entered the sea of knowledge, she was still crackling and playing a single machine, and Ji Nian couldn't help but shake her head a little helplessly.

- If this is in the past, with this girl's few spirituality, it is estimated that she will be happy to jump three feet high when she hears about hunting.

But now there is no reaction at all, just "going home" to play games.

"It turned out to be from [Sword Study] to [Butterfly Companion Scholar], and now it has become [Sword Study] to [Internet Addict Girl]."

"I'm really guilty."

Ji Nianxin said, showing a very rare loss of conscience.

Of course, it was only a loss, and he was quickly thrown into the trash can on the side of the road.

"Ladies and gentlemen, in the future, you can only enter the hunting ground with a blank card, accompanied by two Kalings."

"During the period, it is not allowed to use any elemental skills that may cause irreversible damage to the venue, and violators will be eliminated directly and fined more than one million yuan."

"In addition, although most of the creatures in the field are mild species, there are also some domesticated species whose wildness has not completely faded or poisonous insects that have not been cleaned up by our side."

"Please put your life and safety first, in case of accidents, please fire the flare gun immediately, and we will launch a rescue operation as soon as possible!"

"Okay, that's all we have to remind, do you have any questions?"

A middle-aged woman with a serious face and crow's feet in the corners of her eyes holding a megaphone spoke loudly in front of the vine-wrapped gate.

"I have a question."

In the crowd, Ji Nian's eyes moved slightly, and he said loudly: "You just said that there are still some poisonous insects in the field that have not been cleaned up, so can I understand that those things are not considered the property of the hunting ground, and we can catch them freely?" ”

"That's true." The middle-aged woman bowed her head slightly and said, "And if you catch a certain number of poisonous insects, we will also pay a certain amount of reward." Just ......"

She paused for a moment, then said with a serious face, "I don't recommend you to do this. ”

"First of all, your entry time is only half an hour, and if you can't successfully encapsulate a secret creature within this time, you will be directly disqualified from the competition."

"Secondly, the poisonous insects hidden in the venue are all extraordinary varieties in the secret realm of Qingshan, taking people's lives only overnight, even if they are rescued, they may leave a little problem."

"Therefore...... I personally don't recommend catching poisonous insects. ”

When Ji Nian heard this, he thought for a while and said: "Since these poisonous insects are so dangerous, I think your company has also spent a lot of effort to clean them up, even if I deliberately look for them, I may not be able to find half of them." ”

"You might as well give me this permission. If I do, I can't handle it myself, and I'll fire a flare gun; If you can't touch it, it's not a big deal. ”

"As for the allocation of time, I should be able to handle it."

Ji Nian said very earnestly.

And the middle-aged woman in charge couldn't help but sigh lightly when she saw him like this, and turned around and took out three special white props that could be used without mental power from the concierge next to her.

They are named: [Eagle Falcon Pattern Black Pottery Narrow Mouth Altar], [Human Face Spider Silk Does Not Break the Pocket Web], and [Blood Droplets Are Difficult to Get Off the Sticky Rod].

"You can take these three props and use them first, and when the hunt is over, you can return them."

When Ji Nian heard this, he took these three things from the other party and thanked him.

Then he retreated into the crowd, raised his hand to summon the seventh master, and handed over these three things to the other party.

"With the steadiness and ruthlessness of the seventh master when fishing, he is also a good hand at catching insects, so this task will be handed over to him."

Ji Nianxin said, and when he turned around, he called out the eighth master from the sea of knowledge, and this one who accompanied him to catch the secret realm creatures would wait.

One thing to say, although Ji Nian is a little poor, he doesn't disdain to take advantage of these two jujubes.

It was only when he heard the word "poisonous insect" that he suddenly thought of an old man with "great love" in his heart, as well as a creepy secret technique in myths and legends - Gu.

Gu, just looking at the literal meaning, is to put insects in utensils.

"On the Origin and Syndrome of Diseases: Gu Poison Phenology" has a cloud: "Take more insects and snakes, store them in utensils, and let them eat each other, only one thing is alone, that is, it is called Gu, and you can become confused, chase wine and food, and cause trouble for people." ”

To put it bluntly, it is a secret art with a bit of underworld color, with many varieties such as golden silkworms, slices, and loaches.

It's hard to guard against, and it's extremely ruthless.

"It's time for me to expand my skill base, too."

Ji Nianxin said, following the crowd, he poured into the hunting ground: "Just take this opportunity to catch some insects and try to see if it works." ”

Immediately after, he turned to the two Kalings beside him and said, "Let's wait and work together." The seventh master catches insects, and the eighth master accompanies me to catch the creatures of the secret realm, the bell rings, and I gather here. ”

With the help of Zhihai's auxiliary translation, Ji Nian made a comparison, and finally let the seventh and eighth masters, who were not particularly spiritual, understand what he meant.

“……”

The seventh master couldn't speak, only patted the eighth master on the shoulder, signaling him to protect the chronicles, and then hugged the clay pot, carried the pocket web, and the sticky rod, and walked alone on a cold and damp path covered with cobwebs.

“……”

The eighth master turned his head to look at Ji Nian, lowered his head and pondered for a while, then pulled out a soul hook chain from his wide sleeve robe, and wrapped it around Ji Nian's wrist as gently as possible, while his muscular arm was tied to the other end.

And just like that, one man and one god strode into the woods.

Looking at the majestic back in front of him, as well as the soul chain in his hand, Ji Nian always felt that something was strange.

However, time was pressing, and he couldn't help thinking so much, so he followed the pace of the eighth master, stepped on the fallen leaves, and walked towards the depths of the woods.

"Whew-"

"Roar~~~"

At the end of the path, a small mountain that is inaccessible instantly breaks into view.

At the junction with the woods, there is a wide and bright opening, from which the mountain wind pours in, rushing against the rocks and water, stirring up bursts of clear sound.

It was the snoring and roaring that sounded from time to time at that time that broke this artistic conception.

"This?"

Ji Nian transmitted the sound with spiritual power, pointed to the entrance of the cave with his finger, and looked at the eighth master.

When the eighth master heard this, he subconsciously tightened the chain wrapped around his arm, and looked at Ji Nian's wrist again, as if he was afraid that he would lose it, and then nodded heavily with a serious face.

The "monsters" that inhabit here are already the strongest creatures he can detect that inhabit the periphery of the hunting grounds, which is about the level of two or three blue products.

As for the depths of this hunting ground...... There are some stronger species, but their intensity is not yet enough to cope with in the current age.

What's more...... The association didn't give enough money.

In the past year, their group of players will also be able to walk on the periphery.

To put it bluntly, it is an "experience suit".

"Then let's go inside."

Ji Nian said with spiritual power, and then followed behind the eighth master, stepping on the stone of his feet, and slowly walked towards the cave.

I walked a few dozen steps and entered a large space.

Born with a single horn and white fur on its back, the behemoth that looked a bit like a hybrid of a lion and a dog burst into his eyes.

The creature seemed to be asleep, his two fat front paws pressed under his head, and he snorted loudly, and the cave and the nearby land trembled.

What Ji Nian didn't notice was that just as they entered the spacious ground, the guy quietly opened a tiny gap in his left eye.

With a little scrutiny, the small eyes wandered around the body of the eighth master and Ji Nian.

The eighth master glanced at it, showed an interesting smile, pressed the chain knot wrapped around his right arm with his left hand, and his legs exerted a slight force, and disappeared in place in an instant.

The white-haired monster saw that there was no one suddenly, and he was a little blind, so he hurriedly opened the gap in his left eye a little wider, and searched around.

But after looking for a long time, I didn't see the disappeared eighth master.

At that moment, a gust of wind swept towards its closed right eyelid.

It subconsciously opened its eyes, which were as big as the TV antenna pot, and saw a big foot with soap boots with a pattern on the other side sweeping straight towards its eyeballs from far and near.

Seeing this, it subconsciously ejected, and its entire body shook.

After roaring a few times, he raised his claws as big as a car and pressed down vigorously in the direction of the eighth master.

The eighth master was still holding his arms, and the corners of his clothes didn't even move, and he "teleported" to the top of the white-haired monster's head.

Then it instantly gathered mana and yin qi, and its body, which was about the size of its monster fingernails, seemed to weigh millions of catties at this moment, and it fell straight into the stone pile.

After the monster wailed, it propped up the ground with its two claws, exerting all its strength, trying to get rid of the suppression of the eighth master.

But after a long time, the eighth master still didn't move, but he was tired enough, and his tired posture was like a big dog.

It's just that his eyes are much sharper, and he still reveals the anger and ferocity that have not completely dissipated after years of captivity.

even tried to go back and take a bite of the eighth master.

“？”

The eighth master was.

In his background setting, it is the vicious dog in the Vicious Dog Ridge, one of the thirteen stations in the underworld, and when he sees him, he has to clamp his tail and be a dog, and be the meek sleigh three fools and golden retrievers.

But if he dares to make a loud noise, he will rub his dog's head in anger.

He is not the parent of the habitual child.

And at this moment, the white-haired monster's hideous barking made him a little uncomfortable.

With both feet, he stepped his head and neck deeper into the ground, and with the help of his own strength, he bounced up, and with a twist of his free left hand, he let the chain that popped out of the cuff wrap around his fist.

Then, in a posture similar to Ultraman's transformation, he unleashed a punch that fell from the sky and struck the lion's head.

The next moment, I heard a "boom", and the hill shook.

When everyone heard the sound, they turned their heads one after another, and saw dust and smoke floating in the direction of Xiaoshanbao, like a mushroom.

"Ahem, ahem, ahem......"

In the cave that almost collapsed, Ji Young coughed twice, fanned the fly ash in one hand, and held a card in the other, pasting it to the forehead of the half-dead monster.

A lot of the time, he doesn't actually pick the material.

With the mythological knowledge in his mind, he can come up with n creation plans in an instant if he is given a few materials.

For example, the monster in front of him, the one-horned white-haired, lion-like and dog-like form reminded him of a monster called "Nian" or "Xi" in Chinese mythology.

It is a terrifying creature that lives deep in the mountains and forests, and every 365 or 366 days, it comes out of its habitat to devour everything and destroy crops.

For people at that time, it was as difficult to survive that day as it was to pass the test, so that day was called "New Year's Pass".

Until one day, an old man pointed out the monster's weakness and expelled it with firecrackers, spring alliances and other things, and this "New Year's Pass" was called "Chinese New Year's Eve".

If it were a mythical monster with so many weaknesses before, there was a high probability that it would not be able to enter his eyes.

But after experiencing the battle with Lu Shiping, he suddenly found that some so-called "weaknesses" did not seem to be impossible to exploit.

Since Lu Shiping can use the background story to create the fetter effect of "he escapes from her chase, and he can't fly with wings", then there is no reason why he can't reproduce it a little, and use the weakness of this year's beast to create a good vehicle card.

"Anyway, it's just a vehicle, the big deal is that the experiment fails, and with its initial grade level of two or three stars of blue products, no matter how bad it is, it can win the top three."

Ji Nianxin said, took the encapsulated [One-horned Snow Poodle] into his arms, and accompanied by the eighth master, went to find the seventh master.

After walking for about a few minutes, they finally saw the figure of the Seventh Master in the shadowy woods.

And he saw that he was holding a sticky rod in one hand and carrying a net in the other, and his hands were quick and quick, and he was turning up and down, catching insects and pigs, only in the blink of an eye.

And at his feet was an altar full.
