Chapter 109: Sonic Boom
After the horns are taken, the bones and flesh of the fruit salamander are divided. This fruit salamander, Nie Shi never mentioned it, and Xie Qingyun only knew that meat could be eaten, so he simply cut it into more than ten pieces, and even threw the belt bone into his bag.
Finally, come to the mouth of the underground spring, and follow the method of water, enter the water with soil and observe its color. After a while, Xie Qingyun concluded that this spring was not poisonous, and then took out the skin bag brought from Ningshui County, filled it with water, and searched for a few flints by the spring, and then returned with pleasure.
All the way back, as when I came, I could still hear the roars of beasts from the depths of the dense forest, as well as all kinds of strange and palpitating hisses.
Xie Qingyun and Lao Nie said that they would take food and water within half an hour, so naturally they would not delay, and in order to prevent unexpected encounters with desolate beasts, they continued to move quickly with stealth techniques.
Along the way, I saw mountain fruit trees, and I also picked more than a dozen fruits and put them in the attached bag of my bag.
After a short while, Xie Qingyun finally returned to the place where he had been separated from Nie Shi before.
Nie Shi still sat cross-legged, his eyes closed, exactly the same as when he left. When he heard the movement, he opened his eyes: "How did you pick a few wild fruits?"
"Wild fruit?" Xie Qingyun wondered, not understanding why Nie Shi asked about the fruit, and as he spoke, he took off the attached bag and threw it to Nie Shi and said, "About a dozen, when did you change to a vegetarian diet? ”
"What?" Nie Shi took the attached bag and raised his eyebrows slightly: "The fruit salamander lives near the water, so you even found the water source?" It's only been half an hour, and the first time you can find a water source with the two tricks of smelling the soil and listening to the wind?"
Xie Qingyun was stunned, no wonder Nie Shi only asked about the fruit, he didn't believe that he could find a water source in such a short time. It seems that he boasted about Haikou before and said that he would return in half an hour, but Lao Nie deliberately did not stop him, just to let him suffer a little and grow up in the training.
Thinking of this, Xie Qingyun didn't say anything, just laughed, and while laughing, he poured out the things in his bag one by one, and deliberately picked out the python horn from the flesh and bones of a bunch of fruit salamanders, shook it in front of Nie Shi's eyes, and then took off the leather bag hanging on his back and threw it to Nie Shi.
As soon as Nie Shi saw the little boy smiling, he guessed that Xie Qingyun must have had some adventure, and couldn't help but ask, "...... you Tell me, what's the big deal again?"
The three major auxiliary techniques of stealth, without being tempered in various environments, even if he memorizes all the jade jue word for word, it is impossible to succeed at one time, even if Xie Qingyun's talent in this area is amazing, but no one can guide him, and he will never be able to find the water source in half an hour.
Seeing through by Nie Shi, Xie Qingyun blinked and replied with a smile: "Very lucky, not long after I left here, I met the fruit salamander, and followed it to find the water source, I really want to find it myself, I'm afraid I won't be able to come back after dark." ”
When Nie Shi heard this, he was stunned for a moment, and then he couldn't help grinning, and said: "Luck is really good, following the fruit salamander, it just proves that the two tricks of listening to the wind and smelling the soil are much easier to learn than me pointing out on the side." ”
Then he pointed to the meat and bones on the ground and said, "Hurry up, cut them into strips, roast them and eat them." ”
Xie Qingyun drove for five days, and the dry food was eaten in the carriage last night, and when he got off the car this morning, he went straight to this beast area, and walked all morning, and his stomach was already hungry.
About four quarters of an hour later, the smooth and tender strips of fruit salamander meat were baked, and the master and the students grabbed one and began to chew it vigorously.
According to Nie Shi's statement, this thing is the most expensive meat dish in Wuhua Restaurant, and he is reluctant to order one even during the New Year.
It is said that there are people in Yangjing, the capital of the country, who specialize in raising fruit salamanders to provide food for the members of the clan.
When Xie Qingyun heard this, he wanted to keep some back and give them to his father and mother to eat, but unfortunately, even if they were all roasted and brought back, they would have already rotted when they arrived in Bailong Town.
............
After all, they were in the wilderness, and this meal was eaten very quickly, using up nearly one-third of it, and the rest was put into their bags as storage, and after a few sips of water and some wild fruits, the two of them were back on the road.
This walk was three days, and the two of them sneaked all the way, Nie Shi sometimes pointed out, sometimes reminded, and taught Xie Qingyun to confirm the various methods in the three major auxiliary techniques of stealth one by one.
When he saw the beast, he always avoided it without fighting, in order to hone Xie Qingyun's three auxiliary skills, so that he could learn how to track the whole process in the territory of the desolate beast, but he never revealed his ability.
As for how to look at the realm of beasts, Nie Shi said that he couldn't tell the difference just by looking at his appearance, and he relied on his knowledge and strong memory, and when he was teaching in the martial arts academy, he would also tell the students what he knew.
As for the scrolls, there are at least a dozen volumes of "Records of Desolate Beasts", "Miscellaneous Records of Desolate Beasts", "Desolate Beast Records", etc., all of which record the appearance and cultivation of some desolate beasts, but the cultivation and alienation of hybrid desolate beasts are often unexpected, and even their descendants may be different from their fathers, and their attack and fighting methods have also changed, which is equivalent to changing the type, so no book can record all desolate beasts.
Of course, if a martial artist has a spiritual sense, he can naturally go to explore the cultivation of the desolate beast, and Nie Shi immediately taught Xie Qingyun how to use the spiritual sense to probe the desolate beast's qi.
Although it is different from the qi of the explorer, it is also generally similar, Xie Qingyun can learn it and try it, but it is a pity that with his current external strength martial arts cultivation, he can only check the beginner-level beast, and he still can't detect it above the beginner level.
From the fourth day onwards, although they still sneaked, they no longer avoided the lone beasts except for the beasts.
Most of the time, Xie Qingyun either attacked by sneak or directly attacked, and after killing the desolate beast, Nie Shi pointed out the shortcomings of "Cutting Blade" from the side.
After another two days like this, twelve low-level beasts and six middle-level beasts were killed, except for one of the middle-level fox eagles, which caused a lot of trouble to Xie Qingyun because they were able to fly, none of the rest of the beasts were in Xie Qingyun's hands, and none of them could survive Shihe.
Later, Xie Qingyun's blade became more and more skillful, and almost all of them could kill the desolate beast in three or five strokes.
In this kind of training, Xie Qingyun felt that he was getting closer and closer to the realm of internal strength martial artists, and occasionally he could feel the taste of the pore suddenly closing when the strength was released, leaving the energy in his body. Looking at this trend, it won't be long before you can comprehend the essence of internal strength and cultivate into a martial artist with internal strength.
On the sixth night, after another day's walking, Xie Qingyun found a hill suitable for sleeping in the open, sat down with Nie Shi, roasted some unpalatable fox and eagle meat, and ate it one by one.
The fruit salamander meat was eaten a few days ago, and for the savage-like warrior life, the little boy adapted very quickly, and the sour and unpleasant meat tasted like a chirp, which was the same as Nie Shi.
"Bang!" was drinking water, and without warning, the ground suddenly trembled.
Boom!
Before Xie Qingyun could react, there was another loud bang, and this time, the distance was closer.
Uh-huh......
With the vibration, a dull and strange roar followed, and the sound seemed to be able to penetrate the distance, through the air, and in an instant it was like a sonic boom in the ears, and it was very muffling abruptly.
Crash!
Then, the wooden rack of the barbecue was also scattered to the ground in an instant.
Not good!
Xie Qingyun's heart was alert, and he jumped on top of a dense tall tree nearby like a swift wind, learned enough of the hidden method of the frog, and hid among the branches and leaves.
In the first two days, when eating and sleeping, there were also incidents of sudden encounters with wild beasts, although Xie Qingyun was aware of it in advance and had enough time to hide and sneak attack, but most of the time, he was still very simple to defend against the enemy head-on.
But the current situation is different, the sound of the running Cheng Sheng, the beast must be within three or five zhang, it is already so close, but his spiritual sense has not reacted at all, which is enough to show that this desolate beast's stealth ability is stronger than that high-level beast reckless frog.
Although this is the beast area, it may not be impossible to meet one or two beast pawns, and this sonic boom attack method is a means used by adults to scare people since childhood.
Now that such a desolate beast appeared on the ground, Xie Qingyun felt that it must be a beast pawn.
With such a judgment, Xie Qingyun would hide at the end of the tree, although it was not clear whether the desolate beast could see him within three or five zhang, but it was much better to hide and ambush than to directly face a beast pawn.
But immediately, Xie Qingyun was confused, and he saw that Lao Nie was still sitting below, eating indifferently, as if he didn't take the shock to heart at all.
Boom!
Bang!
The huge sound did not weaken because of Nie Shi's calmness, but it became stronger and stronger, like a heavy hammer, using the earth as a drum surface, and smashing it rumbling.
"That's it!" Xie Qingyun jumped off the ground, stood beside Nie Shi, and said with a smile: "Old Nie, you are so calm, the strongest beast is just a beast pawn, let's surround it, it may not be impossible to kill it, how to take the beast pill, I don't know, once you come." ”
Nie Shi swallowed the last piece of meat slowly, and said coldly: "You come alone, I'll just watch it." ”
Xie Qingyun was puzzled: "What?"
"Middle-level beasts, leopards, rhinos, heavy hooves, nose spirits, whistling sound can penetrate the air, the eyes are about fifteen zhang away, people who don't know, only listen to the weight of his rushing sound, most of them will have misunderstandings. Nie Shi wrote lightly: "It likes to eat fox eagles, it smells the smell, and I want you to roast a little fox eagle meat every day, which I did on purpose, just to attract it." ”
Looking at Nie Shi's wooden stone face, Xie Qingyun wanted to use his father's words when he was telling the story: "Old Nie, you are naughty again." ”
Lao Nie, who has always been smiling, deliberately attracted such a frightened middle-level beast, isn't it naughty?
However, before the young man could speak, he heard Nie Shi say again: "Don't look down on the leopard rhinoceros, the desolate beasts are the same as humans, and the realm cultivation and combat power are not necessarily equal, and some high-level beasts will also flee when they encounter the leopard rhinoceros." ”
"It wasn't supposed to scare people. Xie Qingyun muttered, his eyes looking into the distance.
After many days of training, although there are no beasts under his hands, the little boy has never been complacent because of this, every time he hunts a different beast, he is accumulating a different experience, whether it is for martial arts cultivation, or martial arts "Cutting Blade", or multiple strengths, it is an excellent training.
However, Xie Qingyun would of course be even more excited to meet a desolate beast that could bring trouble to himself and needed more strength to fight and kill.
These killings, he has learned to calm his mind in the excitement, excitement can mobilize the explosion of blood and bones, and the calm can make every move and every style more reasonable, and it is tight but not chaotic in distress.
Therefore, excitement and tranquility are indispensable, and they are not contradictory, which is a new realization that the young boy has honed for several days.
............
The rumbling hammer is getting louder and louder, and the shaking of the ground is getting stronger and stronger.
Xie Qingyun smiled slightly, and then like a civet cat, he rushed down the hill and jumped into the woodland below the hill.
The leopard rhinoceros can already be seen clearly, the shape is not much different from what I imagined, compared to the ordinary rhinoceros, bigger and heavier, the dark body is like the fine iron, the muscles and flesh of the whole body are bulging, only the leopard print on the back can pull it to the cheetah a little relation.
The most terrifying thing is naturally the horn on the head of the leopard rhinoceros, which is much thicker than that of the horned python, and the sharp top is like a sharp blade under the moonlight, glowing with a cold glow. (To be continued.) )
