Chapter Eighty-Six: Preparations for the Hunt

This person's name is Pei Haoyang, and he returned to the ancestral house at sunset and told Pei Jinfan about Pei Jinsheng and Yinggu driving him away.

"The dead old woman is in my way again!" Pei Jinfan kicked over a stool, "Pei Jinsheng's little maid raised him, he had better be eaten by the demon beasts of the Luoxia Mountain Range!"

"Go well, don't be annoyed. His wife Xiao Long handed him a cup of spiritual tea and pulled him to sit down, "I asked my sister to buy Qinghe tea, which is suitable for angry drinks." ”

"Take it away, I don't drink Qinghe tea!" Pei Jinfan was even more angry.

This year has not been going well for him.

On the first day of the first month of the first month, he was shaved bald by Pei Ruxi, his eyebrows and eyelashes were gone, and he had nowhere to vent his anger.

Lin Yongsen used the carp order to ask him to facilitate Pei Ruxi's participation in the hunting of demon beasts, and he spent two hundred spirit stones to let Pei Third Uncle and Pei Fourth Uncle talk about the patriarch, but Lin Yongsen was suddenly assassinated, and the carp order and the high-grade quenching pill that were about to arrive failed, and he also lost two hundred spirit stones.

Before he could catch his breath, the thirteenth uncle was stabbed through for corruption.

The patriarch confiscated the private wealth of the thirteenth uncle and locked the thirteenth uncle up, and he could not sell ore privately through the thirteenth uncle. The patriarch also suspected that there was corruption in the mine, so he inquired several times openly and secretly, sent people to investigate, and sent people to keep an eye on him, so that he did not dare to sell the ore, and his income was reduced a lot.

At present, Pei Jinfan asked Pei Haoyang to participate in the hunt and wanted to sell Pei Ruxi's whereabouts to the Lin clan, but Pei Haoyang was driven home, and Yinggu and Pei Jinsheng did not give him face at all.

Xiao Long smoothed Pei Jinfan's back and said, "If you don't drink the tea of seventy spirit stones and one tael, then I will drink it." ”

Pei Jinfan glanced at her.

She took a sip of the cup of tea and brought the spiritual tea to his mouth, her eyes gentle, "Come, open your mouth." ”

Pei Jinfan avoided the teacup, "I want my wife to feed me, so I will drink." ”

Xiao Long smiled: "You are not a child anymore." ”

But he is a good husband, and he has been married to her for more than ten years without children, and he does not associate with other women. She was happy to pamper him, took a sip of tea, lowered her head to touch his lips, and shared the taste of tea with him.

The couple did not eat dinner, and the lights in the house were on from evening to dawn.

In the west courtyard of Xiuyuan, Zhizhi learned from the monk who returned to Luoxia City that Pei Ruxi had killed an unknown loose cultivator, and was slightly dissatisfied, "Nosy, that person didn't provoke her, why did she kill that person?"

Liang Jiannan took a piece of cloth the size of a handkerchief and looked at it carefully, and said absentmindedly: "In the past, I was casual, and I killed if I wanted to." ”

Zhizhi muttered: "There are such wicked people in the world as clouds, she can't kill them all." ”

Liang Jianan: "When I saw someone who could be killed, I killed it easily, and my thoughts were clear, which was beneficial to cultivation." ”

Zhizhi is not a monk, lying on the couch to enjoy the maid's pinching, and said: "She is too casual, the more she grows up, the more disobedient she becomes, and she has to suffer a little loss to know that it will not be wrong to listen to her father." ”

"Her father is older than her, and her cultivation is also high, but unfortunately he was poisoned by mortals, and he is still in retreat in the main courtyard to remove the poison. Liang Jiannan said.

"......" Zhizhi was speechless, pretending to be distracted by the banana tree outside the window.

There are also banana trees in the mountains, and a few demon bees land on the banana flowers to collect nectar, which makes the Pei monks who pass by stay away.

There are one hundred and fifty Pei monks who participated in the hunt, and there are many side branches and few descendants, and their cultivation is between the fourth and eleventh layers of qi refining, and there are no foundation building monks. Last night they spent the night in a safe valley, and a dozen or so demon beasts attacked in the night, three of them were injured, and no one died.

The 300 or so cultivators who followed were disturbed by the demon beasts, nineteen were injured, and two were fallen.

As the sun rose, thirty or forty people broke away from the group and returned, including ten Pei monks who refused to go deep into the mountains.

Yinggu does not force her people to participate in hunting.

Pei Ruxi asked her: "In previous years, there were also people who didn't dare to enter the mountain halfway through?"

Yinggu: "Every time. ”

Not everyone dares to face the demon beast directly, but the people who participate in the hunt are arranged by the clan and cannot be escaped.

Some people prefer to blind their eyes or cut off a hand in order to avoid hunting, or to seriously injure themselves before they set out.

In addition, Uncle Pei and Uncle Pei have not participated in hunting for more than ten years, and the patriarch has not set foot in the mountains and forests for forty or fifty years.

Contrary to the Pei clan, the patriarch of the Lin clan personally led the clansmen to hunt demon beasts, and occasionally suffered serious injuries, and next time he still went into the mountains to hunt with the clansmen. His wife, Luo Mingzhu, sometimes participates in hunting, and sometimes takes care of chores at home.

The Lin clan hunts demon beasts in the area south of Luoxia City, the Pei clan goes east, the Su clan goes west, and anyone in the area to the north can hunt.

Under normal circumstances, outsiders are not allowed to set foot in the hunting area of each Xiuxian family, and those who follow the Xiuxian family to hunt must obey the arrangements of the Xiuxian family and hand over half of the harvest.

Pei Jinsheng selected a group of people in the loose cultivation, and asked the Pei monks, who had participated in the hunt many times, to lead them to walk in front or stay behind to inspect the situation, and report back every quarter of an hour, so as to avoid accidents as much as possible.

Ying Gu was on the side, and he didn't let Pei Ruxi and Xiao Zhi explore the way.

"As in the past, Xiaozhi and Xiaozhi participated in hunting for the first time, and it didn't hurt to explore the way. "Aunt Ying didn't blindly protect the two juniors.

"It's more dangerous to find a way, so let them follow first. Pei Jinsheng said.

So Pei Ruxi fell behind the team, knocked away a few stalking demon beasts, and picked up a few first-order spirit grasses that had not been discovered.

On the fourth day of entering the mountain, the team encountered a group of red ants that were migrating from a group of third-order demon beasts that had to be avoided, and had to stop and wait for half an hour. On the fifth day, the number of demon beasts in the mountains increased, and the pathfinder monk walked cautiously, lest he provoke the demon beasts that he could not provoke.

By this time, people had already come to the territory of the demon beasts, and they breathed in the breath of the reckless mountains and forests.

After another three days, Pei Ruxi and others arrived at a place that was easy to defend and difficult to attack, and set up camp here. There are formations and traps left over from the past, and the Pei clan will use this place as a stronghold for hunting demon beasts, and clear the demon beasts around the stronghold as planned.

Pei Jinsheng commanded the clansmen to inspect the formations and organs, and instructed the cultivators to build houses and prepare food and drink.

Yinggu took out the map drawn from the last hunt and said to Pei Ruxi: "I will take people to the east and north to investigate, you go to the west, and your sixth uncle goes to the south." ”

The West has the path they took when they came, and it is not difficult to find out.

Pei Ruxi looked at the map, and the east of the stronghold was two mountains side by side, with wooded hills in the north and rivers and lakes in the south. She pointed to the south, "I'll go here to investigate, one person is enough." ”

Yinggu: "There may be fierce beasts hidden in the water, which is more dangerous than the mountains and forests. ”

Pei Ruxi said: "I have the Seven Degrees of Water Spirit Root and a secret technique to hide in the water. ”

On the way to the stronghold, she proves her abilities to Aunt Ying.

Ying Gu thought for a moment, allowed her to go to the south to investigate, and repeatedly advised: "When you encounter a demon beast, remember not to be impulsive, you have to figure out what the demon beast is capable of, and make a plan to deal with it before you can start." ”
