Chapter 115: The Giant Wolf
The giant wolf turned around suddenly, put down the corpse of the old scalper, and stared at Ai Yuanmu, who was getting closer and closer. Ai Yuanmu's speed was extremely fast, and the True Flame Knife in his hand was very dazzling in the dark night.
"Huh", the giant wolf roared angrily and pounced on Ai Yuanmu. The huge body turned into a black shadow, and it was about to collide head-on with Ai Yuanmu.
Seeing the giant wolf the size of an elephant pounce, Ai Yuanmu didn't dare to hold it up, and suddenly dodged to the side, and the True Flame Knife in his hand slashed towards the giant wolf. It left a hole in the wolf's body, but the wolf's fur was tough, the wound was extremely shallow, and it was very resilient, and after only a trace of blood flowed from the wound, it quickly closed.
The True Flame Knife in Ai Yuanmu's hand was not a magic weapon, it was just a mortal weapon, and it couldn't cause more damage to the giant wolf's thick fur and hard muscles.
The giant wolf was in pain, roared, and immediately attacked Ai Yuanmu, faster. Ai Yuanmu didn't dare to touch it hard, and while dodging, he swung his knife and counterattacked, cutting wounds on the wolf's body. But the giant wolf was too strong, and these wounds did not hurt it much, and it was still alive and vigorous, and the more he fought, the more ferocious he became.
After a pillar of incense, Ai Yuanmu felt more and more pressure, a large amount of physical strength was lost, and more than half of the dantian spiritual power was consumed. Dodged the giant wolf's bloody mouth, but still couldn't dodge in time, and received a wolf tail.
The tail of the giant wolf struck Ai Yuanmu's body protection spell "Fire Yuan Cover". Ai Yuanmu was pumped out, and only stopped after knocking down a big tree, only to feel that his whole body was churning, and the Huo Yuan cover was also broken by this tail. The wind howled, and the wolf pounced again. Ai Yuanmu rolled hard and escaped the blow.
The second-grade low-grade qi shield talisman in Ai Yuanmu's hand was stimulated, and he threw it forward, turning into a huge qi shield. The giant wolf that chased after him slammed into the air shield, was bounced away, and fell to the ground with a "bang".
Ai Yuanmu seized the time, took a deep breath, and the spiritual power in the dantian quickly poured into the True Flame Knife in his hand, and the three-foot blade turned into a giant flame knife qi of several zhang, slashing towards the giant wolf. This move is Ai Yuanmu's strongest blow, called "Flame Slash".
The giant wolf felt the threat of "Fierce Slash" to himself, and roared in place. The dirt on the ground flew up and turned into a semi-circular wall of earth, the surface glowing yellow, protecting the wolf's body. The flame knife qi slashed against the earthen wall, and with a bang, a wave of qi burst out after contact, blowing down the surrounding bushes.
After Ai Yuanmu sent out this blow, there was not much spiritual power left in the dantian, and the earth wall glowing with yellow light remained unmoving. Ai Yuanmu's heart sank suddenly, he didn't dare to stay, and immediately turned around and ran away. Because after a long fight, the physical strength is exhausted, and staying here is extremely dangerous, and there will be a fear for your life.
"Whirring" was blowing in his ears, and Ai Yuanmu drove the remaining spiritual power to rush forward. There was a sound of branches swaying from behind, and the giant wolf chased after him, getting closer and closer, obviously not wanting to let go of this little thing that had caused it harm.
As time passed, the giant wolf chased closer and closer, and the wolf claws that swung forward several times almost hit Ai Yuanmu's back.
Ai Yuanmu was in a very bad state at this time, his breathing was heavy, his physical strength was exhausted, his feet were heavy, and he could feel the turbidity of the giant wolf rushing forward and breathing when he breathed. I was also panicked in my heart, and I felt that I might not be able to escape this time, and I would soon die in the wolf's mouth and die in this barren mountain.
Suddenly, there was a commotion ahead, and a wide river appeared outside the woods. Ai Yuanmu was overjoyed in his heart, took his last breath, and flew towards the river with all his might.
With a "bang", he plunged into the river and splashed a large amount of water, which fell on the giant wolf that pounced on him. Ai Yuanmu plunged into the water, holding his breath and diving to the bottom of the river, not daring to show the water.
The giant wolf was on the shore, walking back and forth, roaring towards the water, looking very angry, unwilling to be escaped by Ai Yuanmu like this, and after about half an hour, he slowly left.
Ai Yuanmu was at the bottom of the river, swam down with the current, climbed ashore at a shoal, collapsed on the grass, exhaled heavily, and couldn't lift any strength in his whole body. It was so dangerous that I almost lost my life.
After resting for a quarter of an hour, he took out a porcelain bottle from his coat pocket, poured out a special healing pill, threw it into his mouth and swallowed it. The whole body was sore, especially the back was beaten, and the internal organs were damaged. Ai Yuanmu sat down cross-legged and exercised his skills to regulate his body.
Early in the morning, Ai Yuanmu dragged his tired body back to Daniu Village. The night was in a hurry, with the catchers and anxiously waiting villagers. Seeing Ai Yuanmu coming back, he hurriedly asked what the hell the hell was that huge figure in the night.
Ai Yuanmu lied to reassure the anxious villagers, saying that it was just a relatively large wolf that came at night. and said that he chased for a long time and injured the wolf, but in the end he was run away by the cunning wolf.
At night, as long as the villagers are at the entrance of the village and have a few more fires, the wild wolves will not dare to enter the village. At the same time, the villagers were told not to go up to the mountains to hunt for the time being, so as not to have accidents. He also said that he would stay in Daniu Village to protect the safety of the villagers and wait for the opportunity to kill the wild wolf.
The mountain wolves are cautious by nature, they are chased by Ai Yuanmu, and there are more fires in the village, and they are generally not close to Da Niu Village.
Ai Yuanmu asked some of the catchers to return to the county seat first, leaving only a few catchers to help keep vigil at night. It's just a beast, it's harmless, and it doesn't need so many people. At the same time, let the catcher who went back help bring a letter to his friend, Zhang Liangsheng, the son of the Zhang family in the county.
In the letter, Ai Yuanmu asked Zhang Liangsheng to hurry up and come to Daniu Village. In the mountains next to Da Niu Village, he found a spirit beast "Mountain Forest Wolf", and the two of them could be killed by working together. The sooner you arrive, the better, because the wolf has a habit of wandering around, and it won't stay in one place for too long, and it would be a pity if it slipped away.
At the same time, he instructed Zhang Liangsheng not to make a noise, come quietly, and not be discovered by the Meng family in the county.
The Meng family in Pinghu County is a small family of immortal cultivators, there are several cultivators in the clan, and the patriarch Meng Chao has the cultivation of the seventh level of qi cultivation. If the news of the wolf infestation in the mountains and forests is known to the Meng family, according to the usual style of the Meng family, they will definitely come to rob it, and there will be nothing to do with Ai Yuanmu and them.
Ai Yuanmu lied to the villagers and sent him back to the county seat quickly, also to confuse the Meng family, for fear of attracting the attention of the Meng family.
After Zhang Liangsheng received Ai Yuanmu's secret letter, when there was no one in the middle of the night, he secretly set off from the back door and hurried to Daniu Village, non-stop, not daring to delay, for fear of missing the opportunity.
Zhang Liangsheng is a native of Pinghu County, with three miscellaneous spiritual roots, and a fourth-level cultivation of qi, and he is the only cultivator left in the family. He urgently needed a spirit stone recently, not to help with cultivation and improve cultivation, but to raise relatives.
Zhang Liangsheng's father, Zhang Qinghe, was a disciple of Wanyao Valley before his death, and he was a good friend of Meng Chao, the head of the Meng family, and the two families were very close.
Zhang Liangsheng and Meng Yiming, the young lady of the Meng family, grew up together, childhood sweethearts, and fell in love with each other.
Before Zhang Liangsheng's father was killed, the Meng family did not object. However, five years ago, Zhang Liangsheng's father disappeared unexpectedly and lost contact with the sect, and the magic weapon in his hand was later secretly sold in a market, and he should have been killed. Wanyao Valley also sent a special person to investigate at that time, but because there were no clues, the investigation was fruitless, and in the end, it was not done.
