Chapter 13 Into the Mountain
"Only on Mt. Tongtian?"
Mo Ming was stunned, but after thinking about it, he felt that it was clear, no wonder he searched all around and didn't see a single herb.
"Looks like I'm going to have to find some time to go to Tongtian Mountain!"
Mo Ming lowered his head, thought silently, and then didn't ask any more, and followed Abba back home first.
Night soon fell, and a bonfire was once again lit in the square of Mo Village. Everyone pushed cups and sang and danced, and almost the old and young masters of the whole village sat around to celebrate.
Mo Ming didn't go to the square to play with his friends, he was copying the exercises of the Golden Body Fight and preparing some things to go to Tongtian Mountain tomorrow.
It was not the first time for Mo Ming to go to Tongtian Mountain, so he knew very well what to prepare and what not to prepare, but the main purpose of going this time was to collect medicine, so he needed to bring more things than usual.
The horn bow must be carried, and what I am best at is archery, and with the horn bow can at least have some self-protection power in some dangerous areas. Then there are knives, baskets, ropes, and some dry food and water.
The reason why I brought dry food was because Mocun was still dozens of miles away from the main mountain of Tongtian Mountain, and if you walked such a long way, you would have to walk for a day, not to mention that the road was tiring, and food was not easy to find.
There was nothing to say all night, and early the next morning, Mo Ming got up early, first went to the edge of the cliff to absorb some purple gas, and then stopped exercising, returned home and brought all the things he had packed up last night, said hello to Abba and Auntie and went out.
"Xiaobai, run slower, you have to walk a day to the foot of Tongtian Mountain here, you can't eat more meat if you run so fast!"
In front of Mo Ming, a snow-white snow wolf was running forward happily, and every time Mo Ming went to Tongtian Mountain, he would take this white wolf with him, because the wolf's nose and eyes were very sensitive, and it was much faster than people to find things in many cases.
Along the way, Mo Ming was not in a hurry, and he also slowly looked for herbs in some deep forests and swamps, although Uncle Man said that the dozen or so herbs were only available on Tongtian Mountain, but there were still a lot of other medicinal materials along the way.
Mo Ming was going to collect more, even if many of them were no longer usable, but if they were brought back to Mo Village, those who had also cultivated the Golden Body Determination would still be able to use them.
Time passed, and unconsciously in the evening, Mo Ming finally came to the foot of Tongtian Mountain, looking at the main mountain in front of him, Mo Ming was a little stunned.
Even though I have lived in this place for fifteen years, even if I can see it every day when I go out, when I really stand in front of this mountain, I still give people a majestic feeling.
Mo Ming was a little distracted, there was always a thick layer of clouds covering the top of Tongtian Mountain in that more than 9,000 zhang place, making people unable to see how high the mountain was, as if this mountain had really pierced the sky.
"I heard the old man in the village say that no one knows how high Tongtian Mountain is, and no one has ever really gone up, and it is said that the top of Tongtian Mountain is connected to the fairy world, as long as you can step on the top of the mountain, you can turn everything into an immortal!"
Mo Ming silently thought about the rumors about Tongtian Mountain, and then laughed dumbly, how high Tongtian Mountain is, whether he can become an immortal has nothing to do with him, those are too far away from him, so far away that they can only exist in legends.
"I have to find a place to rest first, there are many mosquitoes in this mountain, and I have been bitten many bags along the way!"
Mo Ming scratched his vest and complained a little, but after looking at the sky, he hurriedly took the snow wolf to a temporary resting place.
Next to a steep mountain wall, Mo Ming stood in front of a natural stone cave with a snow wolf, which was a place he had been looking for to settle down temporarily, and the location was relatively remote and hidden, and there were usually few wild beasts passing by.
Looking at the usual weeds at the entrance of the cave, Mo Ming showed some smiles on his face, this stone cave is really good, it has not been occupied by some beasts for so long.
"Xiaobai, let's rest here tonight, I'll go get some firewood first, you go catch a rabbit, and then give you a fragrant rabbit meat!
Mo Ming waved his hand, said to the snow wolf with a smile, and then began to prepare today's dinner under the snow wolf's whin.
At night, the mountain did not seem to be very quiet, but from time to time there were bursts of wild beast roars.
Mo Mingpan sat on a flat bottom of the cave, this cave is very spacious, about ten zhang long and wide, and very dry, ordinary mosquitoes rarely survive here.
In front of Mo Ming, there was a simple grill, and a branch was inserted into a shiny rabbit, constantly rolling in the eyes of the fire, and bursts of extremely strong meat fragrance permeated the entire cave.
The snow wolf had already spit out his long tongue and looked at the roast rabbit intently, looking like he would immediately rush up and eat it as soon as Mo Ming nodded.
"Hey, this rabbit is different with some ginseng juice, and it tastes much better than what I ate at home!"
Mo Ming tore off a piece of freshly roasted rabbit meat, nodded in approval while eating, and tore off a rabbit leg and threw it to Xiaobai.
In the early morning of the next day, Mo Ming walked out of the cave and came to a huge rock facing the sun, sat cross-legged, facing the east, and began his daily indispensable cultivation.
Although the benefits of this purple qi to himself since stepping into the Gathering Peak Realm have been minimal, it is finally better than nothing, and Mo Ming believes that after a long time, it will naturally have some other effects.
"Whew......"
Just as Mo Ming had just woken up from his meditation, an extremely loud wolf howl came from not far away.
Mo Ming's face couldn't help but change slightly, because the voice of the wolf howl was very familiar, it was Xiao Bai's voice.
Not daring to delay in the slightest, Mo Ming picked up the horn bow and ran in the direction where the sound came from, and came to an open flat ground in only a moment of time.
At this time, a huge golden eagle the size of three or four zhang was hovering above the snow wolf's head, letting out bursts of cries.
And the snow wolf was prostrate on the ground at this time, with a low roar in his mouth, and his eyes were staring at the golden eagle in the sky. The bright red blood on its body was slowly flowing out, and cracks several inches long were all over it, and it was obvious that before Mo Ming came, the golden eagle and the snow wolf had already had a battle, and the snow wolf was injured.
"Damn! This golden eagle must be the companion of the golden eagle that Xiaobai provoked at the beginning, otherwise how could he attack Xiaobai for no reason!"
Mo Ming's face was extremely gloomy, he still remembered the horror of the golden eagle at the beginning, if it wasn't for the critical moment when Uncle Sihai came back, most of them would have to shed blood at that time, and even a bad one would have a threat to his life.
Now this golden eagle is larger than the previous golden eagle in terms of size, and its claws are even sharper, like a sharp blade that can hook the soul, shining dazzlingly in the early morning sun.
Mo Ming didn't dare to delay in the slightest, the horn bow in his hand was quickly raised, an iron arrow was drawn, and the bow was directly bent and the arrow was raised, and the bowstring was full moon in an instant.
"Humph!"
Mo Ming snorted coldly, there was no delay at all, the whole action was smooth, and the kung fu strings that only blinked in the blink of an eye came out, and the iron arrow had turned into an afterimage and went straight to the golden eagle.
In the sky, the golden eagle suddenly cried, the sound was extremely poignant, as if it sensed the crisis at the same time as Mo Ming's arrow, a pair of three-zhang long wings slammed out, and the huge body quickly swirled in the air, and its body swooped down rapidly, and its claws poked out, and it was going straight to the iron arrow without dodging at all.
"Ding!"
A piercing metal knock sounded in an instant, and the golden eagle's claws grabbed directly on the iron arrow, and a burst of sparks shot out, and the iron arrow was directly deflected by a claw.
However, although Mo Ming's face was still gloomy, he seemed to have expected this scene for a long time, and the movements in his hands did not stop in the slightest, and he raised his bow again and shot it, and three iron arrows flew out in an instant, turning into three afterimages and going straight to the golden eagle's chest, abdomen, eyes and claws.
Bows and arrows are inherently restrained from all birds, Mo Ming doesn't believe that with his current strength of 1,500 catties of one arm, one arrow can be blocked, and three arrows can still be blocked.
"Whoa, whoa!"
Three dull sounds of breaking the air came out in an instant, and the golden giant eagle obviously found that this blow was much more powerful than the previous blow, a pair of huge wings instigated again and again, and then swept down suddenly, the huge wings directly covered the three iron arrows, only to hear three jingles, and the three iron arrows fell down with several feathers.
"How so!"
Mo Ming's pupils shrank, and he couldn't believe it, you must know that although the golden eagle he faced at the beginning was also very strong, he still had something to attack after all.
And this golden eagle seems to have some wisdom, and it knows how to fight with its huge wings, and attack its weaknesses with its own strengths, and its strength is several times stronger than the original golden eagle.
