When Old Master Yin arrived at the skin drying field with Hunt Xiaohu, it was already half an hour later.

Although it was delayed for a long time, Old Master Yin was extremely pleased, and with the help of the divine drum and heavenly sound to shock the qi and blood, and the acupoints, Xiaohu's Heavenly Star Qibu actually practiced the sense of qi, which can be used for a hundred days.

This is actually an anomaly, after hearing the great changes in the village earlier, Old Master Yin once calculated a hexagram, which is a hexagram of great murder and catastrophe, although nine deaths and one life, but there is a glimmer of life in the will of heaven, should it be above this son?

"Yin Lao! Yin Lao is here, everyone is quiet, Yin Lao is well-informed, please ask him to sort it out for everyone. The sharp-eyed villagers saw Old Master Yin coming, and hurriedly got out of the way and shouted loudly.

Indeed, there are thousands of people in the whole village standing in the entire skin drying field, and they are in a mess, and you can't figure out a clue at all.

There are violent clansmen who shout that they want to go to Tiger Mountain to meet the three Xiaolong hunters, there are also those who advocate sticking to the village, and there are even those who think that the whole village has offended the mountain god and caused a big disaster, and it is necessary to sacrifice to the god to keep the whole village safe.

The old patriarch, who was in a dilemma, heard that Old Master Yin was coming, and said happily: "Brother Yin came just in time, this matter has to be arranged by you!" The old patriarch is a good hand at hunting, but in the face of this sudden and dramatic change, there is no countermeasure for a while.

Old Master Yin knew that this was a life-and-death situation, and he couldn't shirk it, so he patted Hunting Xiaohu, who was still intoxicated with qi and blood, and signaled him to return to Hunting Xiaofeng and Yin Xiaoqing's two daughters, and strode to the center of the leather drying field. He said in a deep voice: "Everyone!" His voice implied the divine power of Xuanjin, and the whole village suddenly fell silent, and slowly continued: "My Hunter Village has gone through hardships for hundreds of years without falling, and no sand wolves, sand thieves, fierce beasts, and even more terrible hurricanes have knocked us down. On what basis? on the basis that we are all fighting to defend our homeland, as long as we work together as one, nothing can intimidate or stump us. ”

When the younger generation heard this, their blood immediately rose and they all shouted: "Yes, that's right." Nothing can intimidate us! Isn't it just a bigger, more ferocious beast, just to give our whole village a feast. ”

After all, such a large village, it is impossible to hide it, but those who have not seen the scene, no matter how much they imagine it in their minds, they only think that it is just a larger beast that is coming.

Old Master Yin nodded and said with relief: "Okay, Brother Bear and Brother Wolf, you will lead the juniors to pick up Xiaolong and them, prepare more torches, it is best to insert a torch every ten steps at the entrance of Yancun, and bring more gongs and drums to the foot of Tiger Mountain to beat and roar." After all, this evil beast is also a wild beast, it still retains the habits of a wild beast, and it is also afraid of fire and sound. ”

"Good. Sons, follow me. The two tall and hateful old men heard Old Master Yin's arrangement, and waved and shouted with joy. It was the village elders who began to shout to answer the question, and the two of them fought bravely all their lives, and they have not yet served the old age to this day, so they have great prestige in the village, and more than 200 young people immediately followed.

Hunting Xiaohu was also overjoyed when he heard this, shook off his sister and Xiaoqing's hands, and was about to follow, when Old Master Yin's voice came: "Xiaohu, come here." ”

Lie Xiaohu was dumbfounded, and walked over helplessly and said, "Teacher Yin, I want to pick up my brother and them." ”

Old Master Yin sighed: "You can't go yet, you are the only one in the village who has seen which evil animal, the first method of hunting beasts in Hunter Village: be familiar with the eating and predation habits of beasts, understand the attack characteristics of beasts, hunt them weak and kill them." So we want you to tell you about it. ”

Yin Xiaoqing said happily: "Yes, Brother Xiaohu, you can tell you what you saw, I only heard that the wind brought by the giant beast is as fast as a knife, and the roar can deaf people's ears." When this woman heard about the tragedy in the Northeast Col, she finally realized the terrible side of the beast, not only did she not have the yearning for the depths of Tiger Mountain, but she also didn't want to hunt Xiaohu and leave, so she also said that Xiaohu would stay.

Hunting Xiaohu hesitated for a while, and then recalled the pair of demonic pupils of the giant beast, but he didn't know if it was because a long time had passed, or because his current qi and blood spirit were several times that of just now, and he no longer had any feelings of fear and palpitations, and said in a deep voice: "It's like a head, no, it's just a big worm." ”

A middle-aged man said with a smile: "What's so terrible about the big insect, back then, Lao Tzu hunted one by one man and one dog." Let me figure it out......"

"It's just more than ten times bigger than the usual largest. Hunting Xiaohu's next words made the big man keep his mouth shut.

"Wow! How is this possible, how can there be a big worm that is more than ten times bigger. Many anxious villagers couldn't help but exclaim and expressed disbelief.

Hunting Xiaohu continued: "Its sharp claws can grasp solid stones, it can leap more than 20 zhang away in one jump, at least two or three zhang high, and it lands silently, light and sensitive, and does not have the weakness of large beasts moving slowly and turning slowly, clumsy and heavy. ”

"Oh my God!" this time even the most stable old patriarch couldn't help but gasp, this completely subverted the beast common sense they had passed down for nearly a thousand years, how could such a monster be resisted?

Old Master Yin saw that the whole village was falling, and said with a smile: "In the end, it is only more than ten times bigger, and one person can't deal with it, but there are thousands of us, and one person will shoot it to death if he shoots an arrow." By the way, Brother Yuan, it's up to you to take people to reinforce the traps outside the village, well, let's increase and deepen all the traps tenfold. In addition, there are several large traps to be set up in the village, which is a relatively large task, and I recommend that at least half of the whole village participate, including women and children. ”

The elder surnamed Yuan, who had previously proposed to stick to it, nodded solemnly and agreed, and began to recruit the clansmen, he knew that the situation was serious, and planned to start construction overnight.

There are dozens or hundreds of traps around the village all year round, in order to prevent wild beasts from running into the village and harming women, children and the elderly, but there are no traps in the village.

Now there are traps in the village, obviously because they are worried that the giant beast will be able to avoid the traps outside the village, and can jump into the village from any place to commit murder.

"Is there anything else?" Old Master Yin looked at Hunting Xiaohu with blazing eyes.

Hunt Xiaohu nodded and continued: "This huge insect seems to have a shocking power, and the dogs in the whole village are also frightened by it, I, I, I didn't dare to release the arrow at that time." Xiaohu hung his head and was extremely ashamed, he felt that he was not a qualified hunter, and he had lost the face of the whole village.

But at this moment, no one laughed at him, because most of the villagers only realized after being reminded by Hunt Xiaohu that although some of the hounds in the village had stood up by now, their spirits were still weak and had not fully recovered, which was simply unheard of.

"Xiaohu, don't blame yourself, in fact, you did the right thing, in fact, even if you shoot an arrow, you can't hurt it enough. What do you think this is?" Old Master Yin held a broken arrow in his hand.

Hunting Xiaohu looked at it, was shocked, and said in horror: "This, this is the eldest brother's arrow, how can it be broken? How can the brother's arrow be broken?"

Old Master Yin said to the old patriarch and other elders: "This arrow was found by me in the Northeast Col, it is estimated that Xiaolong shot it in a hurry, but it couldn't shoot into the fur of this fang. So I suggest that we not only change to better and stronger arrows and weapons, but also shoot at its weak points, because because it is huge, so the mouth, eyes, ears, and nose are also huge, and they can be targeted. It has a soft and wide belly, but it jumps extremely high, and we can wait for it to jump before releasing the arrow. ”

The patriarchs were all convinced when they heard this, it seemed that the invincible giant beast was not so terrible by the old master Yin, with the archery skills of the hunter villagers, they could usually point where to fight, and the whole village was better without any intact skin with an arrow edge as proof, not to mention that the giant beast had expanded its weakness more than ten times.

Among them, the Yuan Elder Huo Di was furious: "What are you doing standing still, take your tools, and follow me to dig a trap." Under his drive, thousands of people ran home to get tools, and all the villagers became urgent, deeply aware that the whole village had reached a life-and-death point, but because they knew the weakness of the giant beast, they did not feel frightened and afraid, but had a kind of expectation.

In a few blinks of an eye, there were only more than 1,000 people left in the original crowded drying field, most of them were old people and children, and the old master Yin then said to the old patriarch: "Patriarch, just now someone said to sacrifice to the gods and make a vow, I think this idea is good, it is also necessary to sacrifice to the mountain god, and when the whole village comes back, after the trap is done, gather the whole village to sacrifice to the gods and make a vow, and dance the sacrificial hunting dance, so that it lasts for thirty nights, or you can move the mountain god and take back this animal." ”

In fact, Old Master Yin's move has another deep meaning.

In the past, every year when the Hunter Village came to the Hunting Festival, the whole village would dance the hunting dance around the bonfire. This kind of hunting dance with the whole village shouting together from the heart, and with a strange rhythm, can integrate the wishes of the whole village, converge into a powerful wish and blood, shuttle through time and space, there is a mysterious and unpredictable strange force, which seems to be able to shelter the hunter village throughout the year.

Although Old Master Yin didn't think that he could move any mountain gods, he could at least achieve the purpose of expelling fear for the whole village, enhancing qi and blood, and uniting as one, and even resisting the demonic soul-shaking magic for the hunting dogs of the whole village.

Immediately, several conservative elders were in favor of it, they were quite old and no longer had the strength to fight with wild beasts, but they were highly respected, so they usually presided over the annual sacrifice at the shrine.

When the elders went to prepare the sacrifices and other things, Old Master Yin pondered for a long time, and finally spoke: "Patriarch, you have also seen the tragic situation of the Northeast Col, this time it is indeed to the point of life and death of the whole village, can the divine drum of my village be sounded during the sacrifice." Do you see, the dogs of the whole village, soon after you beat the drum, can stand up, I think the drum does have a mysterious power, can boost the morale of the boys in my village and deter the beasts. ”

"This, there is no precedent, the ancestors have a saying, it is not life and death...... , alas, even when it comes to life and death, you can't knock for thirty nights in a row!"

You must know that since he became the patriarch, today is also the first time to sound the divine drum, and the previous patriarch confessed before his death: until the moment of life and death, you must not sound the divine drum lightly, otherwise there will be a big disaster.

"Then fifteen nights?" Old Master Yin said tentatively, he was thinking about the cultivation of hunting Xiaohu, you must know that once the drum sounds, it can win a hundred days for hunting Xiaohu, if it rings for fifteen nights in a row, it is equivalent to more than a thousand days of cultivation effect, or it can make Hunting Xiaohu enter a very deep realm.

"Seven nights, can't be any longer. "The old patriarch said it categorically, and there was no possibility of turning around.

"Okay, but if the giant beast invades the village, please also ask the patriarch to beat the divine drum and raise the strength of the whole village to fight the life and death of the giant beast!"

The old patriarch was shocked, and looked at Old Master Yin's solemn face in horror, only then did he know that this disaster was definitely not as easy as Old Master Yin had just said to the whole village, and he couldn't help but nod in shock, and even had the idea of beating the Thirty Nights Divine Drum in a row.

"When the whole village sacrifices tonight, I will announce that the position of patriarch will be passed on to the hunter who has contributed the most to this catastrophe, no matter who it is, even if he is a little girl. The old patriarch suddenly said heavily.

Saying this means that he has made up his mind to defend the safety of the Hunter Village even at the cost of his life, because he is the head of the clan, and he has decided to beat the drum as much as possible.

In fact, the biggest reason why the divine drum can't sound often is that the old patriarch doesn't have the ability to ring it often. Through the ancestral secret method, the patriarch and the god are connected by blood, and the human drum is barely integrated, so that the god drum can be beaten, but even so, it must be shocked by the god drum, just now, the old patriarch beat the god drum for the first time in his life, just a stick of incense time, there is a depressed feeling of heartbeat and vomiting blood, and finally it takes a long time to calm and condense to recover, which is the reason why the god drum in the ancestral training can not ring often.

The old patriarch made up his mind that when the giant beast invaded the village, as long as the sound of the divine drum could indeed cause damage to the giant beast, even if he vomited the last mouthful of blood, he would let the divine sound of the divine drum continue.

Old Master Yin saw that the old patriarch had made up his mind to die, and secretly admired, and sighed: "Actually, we hunted giant beasts to protect the village this time, and there is one person who is the most important. Xiaohu, do you know who it is?"

"It's the Iron Master! I see, we'll have to use the arrows and blades he forged. "Hunting Xiaohu reacted very quickly and said with joy. He thought that if the whole village was equipped with the sharp weapons made by the Iron Master, the giant beast would not seem to be difficult to shoot.

Master Tie is the second outdoor visitor in Liejia Village for more than a hundred years, he came two years earlier than Old Master Yin, but he has a withdrawn personality and is difficult to approach, so he lives in the Black Dragon Valley ten miles away from Liejia Village. But the iron tools he created are deeply loved by the hunter village, and the pots and pans are very durable, not to mention the extremely sharp arrows and blades, which are the big killers for hunting wild beasts, but unfortunately the iron master does not often hit arrows and blades, which is extremely difficult to build, and it is also against the heavens and the peace, and it will bring disaster to the hunter village.

However, the blades that were occasionally exchanged for rare and exotic beasts by the hunters of the hunter village eventually became the weapons of the hunters to save their lives, and the hunter villagers began to respect the iron master.
