Chapter 7: Strange Combinations
Wu Xiaolian didn't know that Wu Shaoyu was in an embarrassing situation when facing Wu Xiumei yesterday. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"Okay!" Seeing Wu Xiaolian, who had been locked in a thatched hut all the time, Wu Shaoyu didn't say much.
Wu Er, a madman with a tattered body and dirt all over his body, and a sloppy-faced maniac standing next to him, went deep into his tattered clothes and kept tickling, and after a while, he made a black "pill" the size of his thumb.
Under the dirty silver threads, a pair of cloudy eyes looked around, as if what the two people said in front of him had nothing to do with him.
It was only when Wu Shaoyu said that he wanted to exercise on the periphery of the Barren Hill Mountain Range, Wu Er's madman was unwilling, and he said crazy for a while, but under Wu Shaoyu's unremitting persuasion, he barely settled down, but Wu Er, a madman who usually ran away without a shadow, was unwilling to leave Wu Shaoyu for half a step at this moment.
In this way, Wu Er, a madman who is usually too high-profile to be high-profile, and Wu Shaoyu and Wu Xiaolian, who are usually too low-key to be low-key, walked towards the Barren Hill Mountain Range under the strange eyes and whispers of the villagers.
"Oh my God! The sun is coming out in the west, am I right?"
"Is this Wu Er's madman family all crazy?"
"Judging by the direction they are going, it should be towards the Barren Hill Mountains, is this the rhythm of the whole family's death?"
"What a strange combination, a madman and a waste followed by a mute girl, wonderful ......"
"This ugly scar waste actually went to the Barren Hills Mountains, can he get a brute ant in the Barren Hills Mountains?"
Wu Er's madman smirked and nodded at other people's discussions. Wu Shaoyu and Wu Xiaolian turned a deaf ear to other people's discussions and continued their footsteps without the slightest intention of stopping.
Speaking of the Barren Hill Mountains, for the villagers of the surrounding villages, it can be said that they love and hate, and they love the natural treasures of the Barren Hills Mountains, the spirit beasts and the spirit grass. Hate the danger of the Barren Hills and Mountains, and often suffer heavy casualties from other hunting teams.
Especially for the three villages of Huangwu Village, Shangqiu Village, and Xiaqiu Village, there are not enough mineral veins, spiritual fields, and spiritual wood forests. Without entering the Barren Hill Mountain Range, you would not be able to obtain enough cultivation resources and an annual offering of 100,000 spirit stones to Bahe Town.
Xuanguo clearly stipulates that if each village cannot hand over the worship of its town every year, it will be regarded as a wild village and will not be protected by the town to which it belongs.
As for Nomura, if it does not have strong strength, it will soon die out under the invasion of the surrounding bandit groups and the exclusion of the regular village.
Numerous facts have proved that Nomura, who did not pay all the enshrinements in their towns on time, usually did not survive for more than a year. Therefore, the people of Xuanguo have a common understanding, there can be regular villages and bandit groups in Xuanguo, but there are no wild villages.
Therefore, even if Asamu Village, Shangqiu Village, and Xiaqiu Village faced the dangerous Barren Hill Mountain Range, they had to venture into it, whether it was the high-level battle group in the village or the younger generation in the village.
It's just that usually, the high-ranking warbands in the village go deeper into the middle of the Barren Hill Mountains and are relatively safe than the young hunting groups.
As for Wu Shaoyu and the others, the direction they took was the edge of the outer part of the Barren Hill Mountain Range. Although Wu Shaoyu was eager to improve his strength, he was not arrogant enough to break into the area hunted by the famous "Overlord Hunting Group" and "Yaksha Hunting Group" in the village at the beginning with the strength of the three of them.
Even so, there is no certainty of their safety, as the jungle carries too many uncertainties. When encountering those unrivaled ferocious demon beasts, you can only ask for more blessings. In the history of Aratake Village, it is not uncommon for high-level regiments to bury all of them in the Aragaoka Mountains.
There is a special phenomenon in the Barren Hill Mountains, that is, in the middle of the month, the entire Barren Hills Mountains will be filled with a light red miasma, which is very toxic and corrosive, especially for human beings. Therefore, the first ten days of the month and the eight or nine days of the end of the month are the best times for hunting groups to enter the barren hills and mountains to hunt. It was now the beginning of the month, and Wu Shaoyu was on the edge of the outer part of the Barren Hill Mountain Range, so they would not be affected by the miasma.
After seven or eight hours of hiking, Wu Shaoyu and the three of them came to the only way to enter the Barren Hill Mountains, Barren Wind Valley, speaking of Barren Wind Valley, the villagers of Huangwu Village, Shangqiu Village, and Xiaqiu Village near the Barren Hill Mountain Range were all in awe.
Because many years ago, a mysterious old alchemist suddenly stayed on the edge of Barren Wind Valley. In this way, it is extremely convenient for the hunting group of the three villages to exchange the collected spirit grass for the elixir on the spot, and avoid going to Bahe Town, which is ninety miles away, to exchange it.
You must know that in the past, on the way to Bahe Town to exchange for pills, he was often attacked by bandit cultivators mainly composed of the "Black Wind" bandit cultivation group. Although Bahe Town guarantees that the villages under its jurisdiction will not be attacked by bandit cultivators, it often ignores individual bandit cultivators who block the road and attack them.
The occupancy of the mysterious alchemy old man directly affected the income of the bandit cultivation group, and the bandit cultivators began to frequently find trouble with the old man, but none of the bandit cultivators who entered the old man's territory to find trouble came out until Deng Zhikui, the second leader of the "Black Wind" bandit cultivation group, led many strong people to fight into the Barren Wind Valley together.
At a time when the surrounding three villages were worried about the alchemy elder. The next day, Qian Wuming, the big leader of the "Black Wind" bandit cultivation group, suddenly announced that he would abolish the identity of Deng Zhikui, the second leader of the "Black Wind" bandit cultivation group, and apologize to the old alchemy man of the Barren Wind Valley.
At this time, the surrounding villagers who were all worried about the old alchemist breathed a sigh of relief, and only then did they know that the people led by Deng Zhikui were still like the bandits who were looking for trouble before, and no one came out of the valley again, as if they had never come.
No one knows the detailed identity of the mysterious alchemy elder, only that he calls himself "Zhi Lao" to the outside world, and others call him Master Zhi, and the price of his exchange of spirit grass for pills is also reasonable, and sometimes he also lists a series of required spirit grass for extremely high prices.
This makes some hunting groups first see what good tasks are in Master Zhi when they enter the Barren Hill Mountain Range and then make specific arrangements.
Of course, Wu Shaoyu and the three of them didn't need to look at the task here from Master Leng, because the lowest-level task here was not something they could complete. The three of them walked directly across the edge of the Barren Wind Valley towards the outer edge of the Barren Hill Mountain Range, and walked for about another hour before they came to the area where there were signs of brute beast activity on the edge of the Barren Hill Mountain Range.
"Ugly Scar, let's go to the desert ridge in the Asakusa belt, where there are generally only some low-level half-grass and half-flesh brute beasts such as the Wind Brute Rabbit, the Desert Ridge Brute Sheep, the Sharp-tailed Brute Swallow, the Phantom Brute Fox, and the Sharp-horned Giant Brute Bull, so it shouldn't be too difficult for us to deal with. ”
Wu Xiaolian obviously not came to the periphery of the Barren Hill Mountain Range for the first time, and she was afraid that Wu Shaoyu would enter some dangerous areas without knowing the depths, so she said kindly.
"Okay, then Xiaolian, you lead the way, pay attention to safety!" Wu Shaoyu naturally agreed to Wu Xiaolian's proposal, so he let Wu Xiaolian go ahead.
"Well, you can defend yourself with this!" Wu Xiaolian walked in front of Ugly Scar, handing one of the two swords in her hand to Ugly Scar, and said lightly.
Wu Shaoyu looked at the long sword in his hand, which was about three feet long and two inches wide, which was made of a hundred refined iron as the main material, shook his head bitterly, and continued to keep up with Wu Xiaolian's pace.
