The days that followed.

Xu Anping and others spend an hour every day learning and consolidating the knowledge of medicinal materials, and most of the rest of the time is spent practicing martial arts, and when they are tired, they return to the miscellaneous courtyard to rest.

I spent a month in peace.

this day.

Deacon Zhou of the medicine collection team gathered all the new members and announced: "After a month of study, everyone has almost a good understanding of common medicinal materials, tomorrow, I will take you to the first medicine collection task, remember to rest well tonight." ”

Hearing this, everyone's faces became solemn.

This month, in addition to learning the knowledge of medicinal materials, they also learned a lot of wild survival experience, as well as the characteristics and weaknesses of various common beasts, and even had a certain understanding of some fierce beasts.

But no matter how much you know, when you are really about to face it, you will inevitably beat the drum in your heart.

In the face of wild beasts and fierce beasts, humans have an innate weakness in frontal combat.

"It's just a beast, just to verify the results of my cultivation during this time."

On the way back to the Third Miscellaneous Courtyard, the nervousness on Luo Tianle's face gradually dissipated, and he said in high spirits.

He has reached the first consummation of brute bull strength, with fifty pounds of one-arm strength, in addition, physical strength, flexibility, reaction speed, etc., all aspects of physical fitness are also stronger than ordinary adults, theoretically, the combat power of hand-held weapons is indeed stronger than ordinary beasts.

Several others regained some confidence.

"Although we haven't become martial artists yet, our bodies are already much stronger than ordinary people, just collecting medicine, as long as we are careful and don't run into fierce beasts, there should be no danger."

"I heard some seniors say that the people who pick the most medicinal materials usually have rewards, for example, two months ago, the three seniors were rewarded with a whole leg of mutton by Deacon Zhou, and they were rewarded for three consecutive days, and there was mutton to eat every day."

"Leg of lamb, I don't know what it tastes like? I've never tasted it in my life. ”

As a few people talked, their nervousness gradually subsided, and they were a little eager to try.

Xu Anping also clenched his fists, his expression solemn mixed with a hint of expectation.

Martial arts, fighting, this is an exciting scene that he has not experienced in his previous life and this life.

Especially during this time, his cultivation broke through to the realm of cultivation, and his strength soared, and two days ago, he introduced the unknown swordsmanship, and his strength was very different from that when he just crossed it, he just wanted to find a chance to give it a try.

The next day.

The 30 new and old members of the medicine collection team gathered on time at a martial arts arena and headed to the nearby Dongwu Mountain under the leadership of Deacon Zhou.

Dongwu Mountain is a continuous small mountain range, covering an area of twenty or thirty miles, in which dense forests are all over, wild beasts are overflowing, although the danger is very high, but it also contains a lot of resources, feeding many nearby medicine pickers and hunters.

The group relied on walking, and it took nearly half an hour to finally reach an entrance to Dongwu Mountain.

After applying insect repellent powder to their bodies, the crowd dispersed in the mountains and forests and soon disappeared in different directions.

……

"Rustling ......"

Xu Anping carried a bamboo basket on his back and wore a straw hat on his head, slowly walking on the soft dirt ground, wielding a long sword from time to time, not only to clear the way for weeds, but also to explore the traces of herbs.

It didn't take long for his eyes to light up.

"Huh! This is...... Twilight grass, and there are at least three or four plants. ”

Xu Anping was about to step forward, when he suddenly remembered Deacon Zhou's teachings - before picking any herbs, you must first confirm whether the environment is safe.

He cautiously observed the surroundings, and even used his sword to cut the grass on the side to pieces, making sure that there were no beast poisonous insects hidden inside, and then began to concentrate on picking the twilight grass.

He took out the small medicine hoe around his waist, carefully turned it on the ground, and dug out the twilight grass plants in the direction of the roots, along with large pieces of soil, and put them into the bamboo basket behind him.

It took about ten minutes to pick just a few herbs.

Xu Anping let out a sigh of relief, picked up the long sword placed at his feet and continued to set off.

The trees in the forest are tall and densely foliage, blocking most of the sunlight and making the surroundings appear as dark as dusk, and the effective viewing distance is only about 10 meters.

As he moved, he remained on high alert, his eyes scanning left and right, his ears pricked up to listen, trying not to miss the slightest movement.

A certain moment.

As he walked slowly to a low bush, out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly caught a black shadow breaking through the air and heading straight for his neck.

Xu Anping's goosebumps exploded instantly, he instinctively clenched the long sword in his hand, and while his body retreated, the unknown swordsmanship that had reached the entry level was skillfully displayed, and the sword was slashed diagonally.

"Whew!"

The blade slashed through the air with a chilling white light, slashing precisely at the black shadow.

The mastery level of martial arts is usually divided into four levels: beginner, proficient, small and large.

Among them, the entry-level means that they are already familiar with every move of the martial art, and can use it skillfully in battle, which can be regarded as a preliminary mastery.

When Xu Anping upgraded the unknown swordsmanship to the entry level a few days ago, all the swordsmanship know-how and experience of this swordsmanship automatically appeared in his mind, and at the same time, he also had a lot of experience in the use of swords, such as horizontal slashing, vertical slashing, upward slashing, and direct stabbing.

For Xu Anping, who is completely ignorant of swordsmanship, these basic sword skills made him instantly get out of the stage of swordsmanship and become a beginner with little attainments in swordsmanship.

It was a complete bonus.

The biggest advantage of humans over beasts is that they can use tools.

With a sword and without a sword, with and without a sword, there is a world of difference between being able to use a sword and not being able to use a sword.

The one-arm strength of one hundred catties, with the blessing of the speed of the rapid swing, supplemented by the sharpness of the long sword, burst out with extremely terrifying lethality.

"Whew!"

The sword sank several inches deep and quickly slashed through, leaving a huge wound several inches deep across the shadow's body.

Blood gushed out.

The black shadow squeaked and fell to the ground.

Only then did Xu Anping see clearly that this was a beast shaped like a black cat, about half a meter long, and the hair all over his body was black and shiny, and it was extremely smooth, only the blood-stained hair near the wound looked messy because it was stuck together.

He didn't have time to take a closer look, and the next moment the black cat hit the ground, he rushed up and stabbed it in the neck, decisively killing it.

"Whew! Stimulate! ”

Xu Anping took a few deep breaths.

This was the first battle in his two lifetimes, and although the time was very short, the process and the result were smooth, he still felt his heart beat faster, his blood surged, and his heart was extremely excited.

Soon, he remembered that he was still in the forest and could not let his guard down at any time, so he quickly looked around to make sure that there was no danger, and then set out on the road again.
