Chapter 52: Night Hunting
At noon, the Xuanwu Gate at the north gate of the imperial city had already gathered a large group of people and horses, Mu Chunyang went back to the Xiangfu after leaving from the Lord of the Sacrificial Wine, prepared a good horse and a good bow and arrow, and took a few people from the palace to accompany him to hunt when he left.
When Mu Chunyang came, the second prince and Zhang Xun were already waiting outside the Xuanwu Gate, Mu Chunyang sat on horseback, and when he saw the second prince and others, he immediately dismounted, and walked to the second prince and others, "Sorry, I'm a little late." ”
The second prince smiled warmly and said, "It's not too late, it's too early for you to come." ”
"Still waiting for someone?" Mu Chunyang asked.
"Well, there are also the eldest brother and the third brother, they also said they were going"
Mu Chunyang was a little unhappy, but he didn't show it, after all, he was a prince, but Mu Chunyang really didn't like the eldest prince and the third prince, one was too blind, and the other seemed to dislike himself.
Waiting until noon, the third prince came slowly, the third prince rode on a bloody horse, and when he came over, he had been riding a horse, and he had not dismounted, but shouted to the second prince on the horse: "Second brother, am I not late?" In fact, he himself knew that he was late, but he was just finding a step for himself.
"It's not too late, it's just right, wait a minute, big brother!"
To tell the truth, this prince seems to be very late, just returned to the city for two days, he was late for two events, and it was not a matter of a moment or two, each time it was an hour or two, and it is estimated that this time it will be about the same.
In the end, even the third prince was impatient to wait, and the third prince walked to the second prince and said, "Second brother, I see that it is not early this day, the eldest brother estimates that there is something, it should not be able to come, why don't we go first?"
The second prince shook his head and said, "Why don't you take your people first, I'll wait for the eldest brother a little longer, it is estimated that the eldest brother will come soon, and we should catch up at once." ”
The third prince was also familiar with the temperament of the second prince, so he didn't talk much nonsense, got on the horse, and then ran directly to the northern suburbs.
The second prince took Mu Chunyang and his party to continue to wait for the eldest prince at the city gate. It was getting late, and at this time the eldest prince came slowly on horseback. Even if the second prince has a good temperament, he can't bear to toss like this. "Big brother, you can be regarded as coming, it's getting dark. ”
The eldest prince said in a rough voice: "Isn't this very suitable for night hunting? Demon beasts also like to haunt at night, isn't it just right?"
The second prince was a little helpless, but the eldest prince didn't care about this, and rode directly to the northern suburbs.
Everyone present was dissatisfied with the eldest prince, but no one dared to say anything, but the second prince didn't say anything, so it was naturally impossible for them to tell the second prince that the eldest prince and the third prince were not good.
The eldest prince left, and the second prince and his party began to set off.
——
The northern suburbs are not from the north gate of Tai'an City, but from a small city gate, the northern suburbs are a very large forest, according to the second prince, there are not only wild beasts in the forests in the northern suburbs, if you hunt ordinary beasts, this is simply too simple for a group of cultivators, and there are not only wild beasts in the northern suburbs of the forest, but also a lot of demon beasts, and the main target of this hunt is those demon beasts.
There are many types of so-called demon beasts, some of which are born with blood, such as dragons and unicorns, these are demon beasts that are born with cultivation, and they are very strong. There is also a type of demon beast that is an ordinary beast, and by absorbing the aura of heaven and earth, it will eventually have some cultivation. There should be no demon beasts with their own bloodlines in this forest, so they can only hunt those beasts that absorb spiritual energy. If there is a demon beast with its own bloodline, I am afraid that it will be difficult for ordinary monks to deal with it.
When Mu Chunyang and his party came to the forest, it was already dark, although the eldest prince hated it, but one thing was right, whether it was a demon beast or a beast, they liked to haunt at night, so night hunting was the best time.
However, it has been delayed for too long at the gate of Xuanwu Gate, Mu Chunyang and his party have not eaten yet, and they are all hungry now, but since it is hunting, it is natural to eat some game to feel it.
It was quite easy for a group of monks to catch a few wild beasts, and after a while, a few men came back with two wild boars, and these two wild boars were used for today's dinner.
After eating two roasted wild boars, the night hunt officially began, the second prince took a group of people to continue to work in the depths of the forest, walked a distance, and finally saw the eldest prince and his party, they were also eating around the fire, but they didn't seem to be eating ordinary beasts, but some demon beasts with some cultivation, because it is difficult for ordinary beasts to grow to such a large size, but it is only an ordinary demon beast, only to absorb a little bit of aura, there is not much cultivation, but it is still very good to meet a demon beast after walking such a little distance, and the luck is quite good。
The second prince walked over and sat down next to the eldest prince, and then asked Mu Chunyang and others to find a place to sit down, Mu Chunyang looked around, found a stone and sat down, and waited for a while, the eldest prince and others finished eating, but did not get up, but continued to sit and chat with the second prince, completely ignoring Mu Chunyang's gang.
The second prince is really a reasonable person, leaving Mu Chunyang and his party aside, sitting and chatting by himself is a little inauthentic, so he found an opportunity to say to the eldest prince: "We have to take the first step, if we find a strong demon beast, we will deal with it together." Saying that, the second prince got up, and Mu Chunyang and his party continued to move forward with the second prince.
After walking for a while, I finally saw the three princes and their group, but the three princes and their group seemed to be injured, but as the prince, they were naturally not injured. However, several of the people brought by the third prince were injured.
After the exchange, I learned: There is a black bear monster beast in the first ten miles, but the black bear monster is very strong, and there are many people in the distraction realm among the people brought by the three princes, but there is nothing to do about the black bear, originally the black bear monster rarely hurts people, after all, they have no malice towards each other, but just now the third prince took a group of people to provoke the black bear monster, so the black bear monster beast only shot to hurt people, although everyone was killed, but there were still a few people who were seriously injured.
The three princes saw the decadent color on the faces of the second prince and his entourage, and the third prince decided to cooperate with the second prince and others to kill the black bear demon beast, but the second prince has always been delicate, and he is by no means the kind of reckless man, these two groups of people are not safe enough, so they sent a person to call the eldest prince, and everyone worked together to kill the black bear demon beast.
Hearing that he had encountered a powerful demon beast, the eldest prince immediately rushed over non-stop, and after the round, there was no more nonsense, and he directly asked the three princes to lead the way.
After a small forest, there is a cave in front, the third prince introduced this hole is the residence of the black bear demon beast, before everyone approached, there was a rumbling sound in Shandong, and a moment later a black bear appeared in the eyes of everyone, but this black bear is very unusual, although Mu Chunyang has never seen a bear, but he still heard the relevant description: walking on all fours, standing straight and more than two meters tall. But this one is six or seven meters tall, not only that, but it also has scale-like armor on its body, and its two huge claws are the size of half a person.
The third prince said to everyone: "This black bear demon beast has a very keen insight, and it is very rough and thick, and the scale armor on its body is difficult to cut even people who are out of the body realm, so everyone be careful." ”
As soon as the third prince finished speaking, the black bear rushed towards everyone, and the black bear was extremely fast, and rushed over at once, but it was also a group of monks, how could such a simple attack not be able to dodge? Everyone scattered, and then formed a circle, surrounding the big black bear in the middle.
These people have all reached the out-of-body realm, everyone is fused with life weapons, plus they are all rich and noble, the children of the emperor's relatives and relatives, everyone is fused with immortal weapons, all kinds of immortal weapons emit colorful light, and the originally dark forest is illuminated.
There is one person in this group of people who is very special, that is Mu Chunyang, Mu Chunyang is a conjoined martial artist, as for Qi cultivation, it is just a beginner's Qi Gathering Realm, and it is only a medium grade, there is no way to fuse the life weapon, so naturally there is something special in the crowd.
The third prince, who has always liked to pick on Mu Chunyang's thorns, saw Mu Chunyang's specialness at a glance, after all, Mu Chunyang was really too conspicuous in this situation, and then the third prince shouted at Mu Chunyang: "Who is that, you hide aside, you can't help here, don't join in the fun." ”
Obviously, Mu Chunyang was looked down upon, and Mu Chunyang didn't bother to explain, but he didn't quit, but suddenly the eldest prince yelled at Mu Chunyang: "Useless thing, tell you to get away, didn't you hear, what's the excitement here, I will have to collect your body if I am killed later." ”
This eldest prince is too arrogant, although Mu Chunyang takes care of the face of the second prince, but the eldest prince has spoken so ugly, there is no need for Mu Chunyang to continue to stay, it seems very cheap to stay, so Mu Chunyang withdrew from the crowd and walked aside to watch the play.
The second prince was about to explain, but the eldest prince ordered everyone to rush towards the demon beast, and the colorful sword light and sword shadow slashed at the demon beast. However, the Black Star Demon Beast had rough skin and thick flesh, and there was no reaction at all after cutting it for a long time, but a few of these people were seriously injured.
Several seriously injured people withdrew from the battle circle, limped to the place where Mu Chunyang watched the battle, and then lay on the ground and took a few pills to recuperate.
Although Mu Chunyang said that he was watching the battle, he kept cursing the third prince and the eldest prince in his mind. Suddenly, there was a strong aura fluctuation, the black bear demon beast shook its big feet, and instantly shook the people around it dozens of steps back one after another, a demon beast, fighting hundreds of people alone, was already very remarkable, but the aura fluctuation just now was obviously different from the one that had just begun, and everyone could sense that the black bear's spiritual power had increased by several grades.
At this time, the eldest prince shouted loudly: "This demon beast has just broken through from the sixth-order middle grade to the sixth-order upper grade, we are not opponents, run." ”
Saying that, everyone immediately fled in all directions, but as soon as the black bear monster stomped its feet, the surrounding aura was immediately locked, and the aura formed a layer of coercive enchantment, and all the people were trapped in the enchantment. This layer of coercive enchantment is exactly the same as the moves used in the blood-clothed female ghost that day, but it is dozens of times stronger.
