The weather is getting colder.

The cold in the mountains always comes earlier than outside.

Although it is only October, the flowers and plants outside the mountain are withered and yellow, and the frost is beginning to white. But inside the mountains, the first snow of the year has already fallen.

Roar!

A leopard leaps down from a tree and, like a gust of wind, pounces on its prey.

Now it's winter.

As a fierce beast in the mountains, the leopard still does not have enough food in its belly, and the fat on its body is still not thick enough, which is not good.

Without enough fat, I can't survive such a cold winter, and maybe I will starve to death in my sleep on the way to hibernation.

So the days before winter are the last chance for mountain animals to store winter fat.

In front of him was a gray rabbit, looking a little silly, crouching by the tree, all the while circling in circles.

Although the rabbit does not weigh a few pounds, it is also meat, and it can withstand hunger if you eat it.

In line with the principle of not wasting it, the leopard decided that this stupid prey should be swallowed in one bite, so as to save the other party pain.

As if sensing the danger, the gray rabbit under the tree, hearing the wind and seeing the leopard pounce, immediately exploded and jumped up.

But it was only halfway through the jump, and a thin invisible rope under his feet instantly pulled it back, flew into the air, and fell to the ground.

The gray rabbit with no way to escape, the red eyes looked at the approaching leopard, and despair flashed in his eyes.

In this regard, the leopard has no waves.

As a top predator since birth, it has seen a lot of desperate eyes of those prey under its mouth.

Fundamentally accustomed to it.

It landed under the tree and walked gracefully, slowly approaching the dust, ready to enjoy its own meal.

Whoosh –

There was a sound of breaking the air next to it, and then a white dot flew on the snow.

As if sensing something, the leopard instantly exploded like a ready-made gray rabbit.

But the sudden attack was so fast that it just wanted to jump away and dodge, but it was too late.

Poof!

I saw an arrow pierce its neck, break through the thick fur, and follow the muscles inside, appearing from the other end.

"Woo......"

The intense pain came from the neck in an instant, making the leopard want to cry out in pain, but it was stimulated by the pain, and could only let out a slight whimper.

But soon it puts an end to these sufferings.

Whoosh!

There were several more cracks in the air, and several arrows were accurate and ruthless, piercing the leopard's head and heart respectively, killing it in an instant.

This apex predator in the mountains soon paid with his life for his greed and carelessness.

"It's been three months, and I've finally upgraded my archery skills to another level."

Lu Yuan walked out of the secret place next to him and came to the lifeless leopard in front of him.

At this time, there was a tingling itch in the body, and then I felt that my strength was a little stronger, and my eyes became better, so good that I could even see a small insect a hundred meters away.

He nodded in satisfaction, and then consciousness sank into his mind.

[Name: Lu Yuan]

【Talent: Immortality】

[Age: 16]

[Skill: Hunting Trap (Xiaocheng) Simple Knife Technique (Beginner) Simple Archery (Dacheng)]

"The improvement of archery is going well. According to today's trend, perhaps in another half a year, the simple archery skills will be able to be improved to perfection. But even if it's complete, I still feel insecure. ”

Lu Yuan's attention withdrew from the attribute panel in his mind, feeling the body that had finished its transformation, and he couldn't help but sigh.

He saw it with his own eyes in the county seat that day.

The swordsman named Ma Jiqing, flying eaves and walking on the wall, killed in ten steps.

Zhang Biao's people can be regarded as fierce people who can fight among ordinary people.

But in the face of Ma Jiqing, who was full of martial arts, he didn't have the power to parry, and he was killed by others one by one.

The difference between knowing martial arts and not knowing martial arts is so big.

"Although I have undergone two upgrades in archery, my strength has reached a great increase. If you punch it out, you should have about 300 catties of strength.

At the same time, the reaction speed has also been improved.

Now, with my bare hands, I should be able to beat three or five of my peers.

But this improvement is still far from enough. ”

Lu Yuan shook his head.

Maybe ordinary people can beat three or five people, in the eyes of ordinary people, they are already very powerful, enough to be a little bully in the village and bully one party.

But such a little strength, in front of a real master, is not enough at all.

He thought about it, a few months ago, he saw the performance of Ma Jiqing, and couldn't help complaining: "It is estimated that it is enough for someone to have a sword." ”

Yes, I worked hard in May, and I can't stand the sword of others.

The reality is so cruel.

"So the strength is still not enough, and I have to train in the mountains for two years. Maybe when my archery and sword skills are upgraded to the full level, I should be able to beat ten ordinary people, right? ”

Lu Yuan thought about it, and couldn't help but comfort himself like this.

Although he can fight ten ordinary people, it doesn't seem to be of much use in the face of martial arts masters.

……

Carrying the cheetah on the ground, which had slowly become cold, and picking up the gray rabbit that had been frightened, Lu Yuan turned around and walked on the way back to the hole.

As time passed, especially when the sun rose to its top, the first snow that fell last night slowly began to melt.

The snow water flows into the dirt, making the mountain road muddy and making it even harder to walk.

Smack!

Lu Yuan lifted his leg from the mud with difficulty, stepped on the grass in front of him, and burrowed into the bushes, feeling relieved.

"I finally got out of that muddy road, there are weeds on the road behind, even if it gets wet, it won't sink into the foot, it's much easier to walk."

He wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked around habitually.

The mountains are full of dangers, and there may be poisonous insects and beasts hiding somewhere. If the vigilance is a little worse, it will be a small fate.

"Hmm...... What is that? ”

Suddenly, when Lu Yuan's gaze swept over the foot of the mountain in the distance, his eyes suddenly froze.

I saw a group of men dressed in black and carrying swords at the foot of the mountain about a mile away from here, walking through the mountains and forests.

As his archery skills improved, so did his eyesight, so even though he was a mile away, he could still recognize the clothes of those in the distance.

"The Black Wolves."

Lu Yuan quickly knew the identities of these people, but then he was puzzled: "What are they doing in the mountains?" And it looks like you're looking for something? ”

After seeing this, he didn't hesitate at all, turned around and left here.

No matter what the Black Wolf Gang is looking for, one thing is certain, that is, it will not do them any good, and it may even be a big trouble.

Therefore, if you can avoid it, you can avoid it.

"This shortcut is not to be taken. For safety, let's take a long detour back to the cave. ”

Thinking so, Lu Yuan threw the leopard and gray rabbit he was carrying to a food storage place of his own, and then touched the mountain road lightly.

The smell of blood on that leopard was too strong, and carrying it all the way would inevitably leave too many traces.

Maybe they will be discovered by the Black Wolf Gang and chased after them.

So to be on the safe side, you can only put down your prey first.

"Now that it's snowing in the mountains and the snow is freezing, I don't have to worry about the leopard's flesh rotting. I just hope that when I come to get it in a few days, this leopard will not be eaten by other wild beasts. ”

Lu Yuan endured the pain in his heart, and the people had already walked four or five miles away, leaving those people of the Black Wolf Gang behind.
