A month later.

The cold wind blowing from the north became more and more violent. Whirling snowflakes fluttered between the heavens and the earth, and the mountains were already plain white, and the trees covered with thick snow grinned in the wind.

A figure came from afar, stepping on the thick layer of snow, but surprisingly did not sink in, leaving only a thin layer of footprints on the snow.

"This internal strength is really extraordinary, I have only been practicing for a month, but now my physical fitness has been strengthened in all aspects. Even my body has increased to a certain extent. ”

Lu Yuan trotted and strolled, looking at the footprints left behind him from time to time, and his heart was satisfied: "There is no trace of stepping on the snow, maybe when I finish practicing the twelve canons, I will be able to do it." ”

Although the Liuyun Palm is only a set of palm techniques, it does not involve aspects such as body techniques.

But it has to be said that internal force is a panacea.

Wherever the internal qi goes, his physical fitness will be strengthened.

Just like right now, Lu Yuan gathered the internal force at his feet, so that the strength of his feet was greatly enhanced.

Not only is the walking speed faster, but even the downward force points under the feet have become slighter.

At this time, stepping on the snow, the weight of his original hundred catties was reduced to twenty or thirty catties after layers of internal force.

And this weight is even more slight when it falls on the snow surface with the blessing of speed, and it may only be ten catties, or even less than ten catties.

"I kind of understand, how did those martial arts masters come about. With the panacea of internal force, even if Newton jumped up from the coffin board, he had to press it down. ”

Lu Yuan thought in his heart, but quickly shook his head: "No, this world doesn't know if there is a Newton." Moreover, the world is different, the foundation is different, and whether gravity still exists is also a question. ”

Since he practiced his internal strength, he had long had great doubts about the rules of this world, and then turned into great expectations.

Since there is internal strength in martial arts in this life, then think about it from another angle, will there be Taoist immortal magic here?

Although the martial arts are already excellent.

But if you can go to the sky and the earth, turn over the river and the sea, hold the stars in your hands, and hold the sun and moon in your mouth, which of these is not more attractive than small martial arts.

It's just that these expectations have been suppressed by Lu Yuan in his heart.

At the moment, he hasn't even practiced martial arts well, and it's too ambitious to expect this.

"Here we are."

While the thoughts flowed, Lu Yuan soon came to a depression covered with ice and snow, and a hint of joy appeared on his face: "After chasing for three days, I finally found you." ”

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and carefully pressed towards the surface of the snow in the depression.

With just a small amount of force, I saw a large layer of snow collapsing, and a tunnel intersection in front of me appeared in front of me.

Whew.

Suddenly, a hole appeared, and the target was immediately found by the wind outside, and they rushed into it with a roar.

"You have to hurry up, or the leopard will wake up and it won't be easy to deal with."

Lu Yuan was blown by the wind, and he couldn't help but shudder, looked at the cave, and hurriedly followed in.

In the more than a month since he entered the mountain, he has already figured out a set of mature skills on how to touch the holes of those hibernating animals.

At this time, the steps were brisk, the movements were fast, and in just a few breaths, they rushed into the depths of the cave.

When I turned inside, I saw a brown leopard lying on top of a pile of weeds in the middle of the cave.

At this time, with the blowing of the wind outside, the temperature difference around it dropped rapidly, and under the alternation of cold and heat, the sleeping leopard was stimulated, its eyelids trembled slightly, and its body also writhed, as if it was about to wake up.

Seeing this, Lu Yuan did not hesitate, untied the hunting bow from his back, opened the bow and set up an arrow, and shot it at the eyelids of the cheetah.

With a pop, the sharp arrow whistled, piercing the eyelid and sinking into the cheetah's brain along the eye socket.

"Whew-"

The sudden stinging pain instantly woke up the leopard who was still asleep.

It howled, and its body rose violently. The long eye opened, and he vaguely saw a figure in front of him, and immediately pounced without hesitation.

In just a distance of more than ten meters, for the agile leopard, it is just a matter of jumping.

It wouldn't take a second for it to shred the nasty guy who snuck up on it.

And yet it's fast, and someone is faster.

The moment the leopard woke up, Lu Yuan had already set up the second arrow.

And when it jumped over, the person kicked under his feet, and the whole person stepped back lightly, and at the same time, the sharp arrow in his hand instantly locked on the other eye, and then let go.

The archery skills that have been perfected, in this short distance, are naturally full of shots.

The leopard's body swooped forward, as if it had actively collided with the arrow, and his other slightly worried eye instantly covered the footsteps of the other eye.

Bang.

The leopard, whose eyes were hit hard, smashed its body on the ground where Lu Yuan was standing.

In its eye sockets, two arrows that had sunk into its brain, still swaying slightly with a hint of strength at its tail feathers.

"Whew......"

A series of painful wails, like the life force of this leopard, gradually faded as time passed, until it was gone.

After shooting the arrow, Lu Yuan waited vigilantly beside him, looking at this scene coldly, but he was thinking in his heart: 'The power of my humble hunting bow is still too small, only six bucket power, which is not as good as the ordinary eight-bucket bow in the army.

With my current strength, only one stone bow, or even two stone bows, can exert all my archery strength. ’

With the entry into the mountains these days, the slow verification of continuous hunting. He also slowly understood what his strongest means were now.

The answer is archery.

Yes, even if he has practiced martial arts, for Lu Yuan, the strongest life-saving ability is the archery technique that he first came into contact with.

There is no other reason.

Relying only on the Liuyun Palm, even if he had already practiced the Fushui Style, at the same time, he initially penetrated the Taiyin Lung Meridian of his hand and practiced some internal strength.

But these methods are still not enough in the face of a ferocious beast.

Just half a month ago, Lu Yuan had tried to deal with an injured leopard with martial arts.

But after the first encounter, even though his palm power was amazing and his speed was fast, he was almost hit by the leopard's claws, almost leaving a few marks on his body.

Since then, he has known that his current martial arts are still nothing.

Think about it too.

It's just a palm move, and the internal force that has just started, in Lu Yuan's attribute interface, the strength is still not in the stream.

With such a little ability, it is really a bit arrogant to go to these top hunters in the mountains and challenge them to fight in close combat.

Therefore, since then, Lu Yuan has let go of his somewhat arrogant thoughts after he has increased his strength because of martial arts, and he has become reluctant again.

Since then.

The next few hunts were mainly sneak attacks, supplemented by bow and arrow shooting.

And it worked wonders.

Just like just now, he hunted one after another, two leopards and a tiger, all so that these fierce beasts couldn't even get close, so they all scattered.

"It's all thanks to my exquisite archery skills."

Lu Yuan touched his hunting bow with his hand, feeling quite complacent.

He has self-confidence, relying on his archery skills, as long as he distances and has the right environment, then even if he faces dozens of enemies, he can kill them one by one.

And these are things that cannot be given by the current martial arts.

"So you still have to change to a good bow, and good archery skills must be matched with a good bow." Lu Yuan touched the hunting bow, which was already a little worn out on the outside, and his thoughts about changing to a good bow became more and more intense.

But now in the mountains, this matter is not urgent for the time being.

And he has already planned about this, and when he goes back this time, he can implement it.

Put away your bow, come to the leopard, pull the arrow out of its eyeball, and after a little cleaning, retract the quiver.

After doing this, he looked at the cave and confirmed that nothing was missing, so Lu Yuan picked up the leopard and walked out of the cave step by step.

The leopard's skin is very valuable, and it is sold in the market, not to mention ten taels. Not to mention that there are 100 catties of meat, which can also be sold for 1 or 2 taels of silver.

Since entering the mountain, counting this one, he has obtained three leopard skins, one tiger skin, and five wolf skins. The total value of the whole is more than one hundred taels of silver.

The main thing in this is that the tiger is valuable, the tiger skin and the tiger whip, which are the favorite of those rich and noble. Relying on these, it is not a problem to sell sixty taels of silver.

And all kinds of other meats, adding up to five or six hundred catties, Lu Yuan marinated them all by himself.

When he was practicing martial arts, he consumed a lot of all kinds of meat, which seemed to be a lot, but it was only enough for himself to eat for three or four months.

"But with this winter's harvest, the need for next year's martial arts training will be about the same."

Under the wind and snow, Lu Yuan carried the leopard on his back, facing the wind and frost, and his heart was full of joy.

……

A month later.

Yangmei Town, outside the blacksmith shop.

Lu Yuan carried a hung of bacon and hurried to Blacksmith Sun's house.

"Sixth uncle, are you at home?"

He shouted from inside, and after a while, he saw a strong man with a scruffy beard come out.

This man is the blacksmith in the town, and because he is the sixth in the clan, everyone calls him Sun Liu.

"It's Xiao Lu,"

Sun Liu looked at the person at the door, and a smile suddenly appeared on his face: "Come in, I'm warming plum wine, let's have a drink together." ”

"Okay." Lu Yuan followed in, and then gave the bacon he brought.

Sun Liu took it directly and steamed it, and after a while, he brought it out and served it as an appetizer.

The two drank for a while, and then Lu Yuan got down to business: "Sixth uncle, how did I ask you a month ago?" ”

Ever since he had the idea of a good bow a few months ago, he had been preparing for it.

However, I don't know how to make a bow, and if I want to build it, I can only find someone to help.

And this helper naturally locked up the only blacksmith in the town, Sixth Uncle.

It's just that in today's world, ordinary people hide some knives, arrows, and hunting bows, which may be nothing, and the court will not pursue it.

But if you secretly possess armor and a strong bow and crossbow, it is a great sin of complicity.

Once exposed, the whole family suffers.

Therefore, Lu Yuan also knows that this matter is difficult to handle, and if the relationship is not good, others will definitely not help you.

So as early as half a year ago, he continued to communicate with Blacksmith Sun, and from time to time he sent some prey he hit, and after a long time, the relationship finally made great progress, and he could be called a friend.

It wasn't until a month ago, when he felt that the relationship was almost over, that Lu Yuan dared to open his mouth and asked the other party to make a request to build an iron tire bow.

But even so, it still scared Sun Liu enough at that time.

In the end, he offered to give ten taels of silver as a reward, and at the same time promised that the news would not be leaked, and with a burst of soft film and hard bubbles, he finally moved the other party.

Building an iron tire bow is not an overnight thing, and Sun Liu has no such experience in the past, so it takes time to figure out what to do, so it was agreed to deliver it in one month.

At this time, it is the expiration of January.

"Got the stuff done."

When Sun Liu heard Lu Yuan's words, he put down his wine glass, got up and came to the back of the room, and walked out with a long box in his arms after a while.

Placing the box on the table, he looked up and motioned, "Take a look." In order to make this thing, Uncle and I have put a lot of effort into it! ”

Lu Yuan immediately became interested.

When I opened the box, I suddenly saw a cold longbow with a dark color and a length of one meter two, lying quietly in the box.

On the side of the longbow, there are ten other arrows that are matched, and as long as you put on a good arrow, it will be a sharp weapon for death.

He took it out and touched it, the whole body was cold, the weight was heavy, and he didn't need to make more temptations, he knew that this was a very powerful and good bow, and it was not available to a fierce general.

Of course, after continuous training and the blessing of internal force, Lu Yuan, in a sense, is already comparable to a fierce general with natural divine power.

"Good bow! Good bow! ”

Stroking the iron bow, Lu Yuan could already imagine in his mind the picture of himself holding this iron bow and shooting countless strong enemies in the jungle.

Martial arts are powerful though.

But even if he is a martial arts master, in the face of the shooting of a strong bow and crossbow, he still has to avoid its edge and dare not take it hard.

Just like Ma Jiqing at the beginning, what about practicing internal strength, and what about superb swordsmanship?

When facing him, he didn't hide his hatred under his own arrows.

"This is the honorarium, five taels of silver, Uncle Six, you count." He had already given five taels of silver as a deposit, and Lu Yuan received the goods at this time, and he simply gave the final payment.

Sun Liu took the silver, looking at the shiny color, and a trace of joy rose in his eyes. But when he thought of something, he still advised: "Xiao Lu, let's talk about it first, after we go out, we must not say that I hit this bow." You didn't look for me, and I didn't confiscate your money, you know? ”

He didn't mention that he couldn't do anything bad with this bow.

Because it is clear that hunting bows are enough for hunting, and iron bows are not needed at all.

Such a sharp weapon, of course, is not used for hunting, but for doing great things.

"I know that it will never implicate the sixth uncle."

Lu Yuan nodded, then closed the wooden box, and went out with it in his arms.

With this iron bow, the animal skin tiger whip worth hundreds of taels stored at home can finally be taken out and sold.

Originally, he had been hiding these good things and did not dare to exchange them.

Because the buying and selling of hundreds of taels of silver is not something that a hunter can do.

That's no different from a child holding gold through the market.

"But with this iron bow, everything is different."

At home, to give ten arrows a good arrow, Lu Yuan picked up the iron bow and pulled up the bowstring he made with tiger tendons, and the iron bow body was slightly bent under the huge tension.

Fingers loosened.

With a buzz, the sharp arrow flew out, and instantly sank into the earth wall, the iron bow trembled slightly, the bowstring jumped, and under this huge force, the air seemed to begin to vibrate.

This bow can kill.

Can kill martial arts masters......

"Good bow."

Lu Yuan laughed, then wrapped the iron bow in cloth, pinned it to his waist, picked up the short knife again, checked the nitrated leather in the lower back basket, and turned around and went out.

He's going to sell.
