Mortal bone

"What..."

Just when Xu Taiping was about to get close to the trap, he suddenly heard a sheep cry.

"Could it be possible to hunt a gazelle?"

Xu Taiping was overjoyed immediately.

The taste of roasted yellow mutton is much stronger than that of wild boar, especially when it is paired with perilla leaves from his home's elixir garden.

"Looks like I'm lucky tonight."

While thinking this way, he quickly ran to the trap.

……

Come to the trap.

After Xu Taiping saw that the branches covering the trap were gone, he was even more sure that there was prey in the trap.

"Ugh..."

Just when Xu Taiping wanted to get closer to see if the prey in the trap was a gazelle, a low growl of a wild animal suddenly came from behind him.

"boom!"

It was almost an instinctive reaction of the body, Xu Taiping jumped up from the spot, and jumped to the opposite side of the trap relying on the strength of his feet.

"Roar!"

The moment Xu Taiping jumped to the opposite side of the trap, a gray wolf about the size of an ordinary tiger pounced on where he was originally standing, and a small tree as thick as the mouth of a bowl was directly knocked off by it.

"Wolf? Or a demon wolf!"

Looking at the huge gray wolf, Xu Taiping's hair stood on end.

When he was hunting with his grandfather, he had seen wolves more than once, but compared with the wolf in front of him, he was nothing but nothing.

"Ow!..."

Just when Xu Taiping was full of astonishment, the gray wolf jumped up again, and rushed towards Xu Taiping who was on the opposite side of the trap.

"Snapped!"

Xu Taiping rolled away, successfully dodged the wolf's pounce, then pulled out the hunting knife from his waist and ran towards the east of the forest.

"Roar!"

Although his running speed at this time has far exceeded that of an ordinary adult, he still can't compare with the monster wolf in front of him, and he was overtaken in just a few breaths.

But at this time Xu Taiping had already calmed down, he didn't feel flustered because the wolf was behind him, but ran in the mountain forest very dexterously.

This is what his grandfather taught him. When encountering wild animals in the mountains, he must never run in a straight line, but follow them in a detour.

"boom!"

At this moment, because the demon wolf turned too quickly, it accidentally bumped into a big tree that was as thick as a person's arms, and broke it violently.

Seeing this scene out of the corner of Xu Taiping's eyes, he stopped immediately, and decisively drew his bow.

He didn't aim at the wolf's head, but at its lungs.

"Whoosh!"

Just when the demon wolf stood up again, Xu Taiping directly pulled the bowstring to the full, and then let go decisively to release the arrow.

"boom!"

Maybe it was luck, or maybe it was because his eyesight and arm strength had improved a lot after training, Xu Taiping's arrow accurately shot into the wolf's body!

"Roar!"

But what Xu Taiping didn't expect was that the wolf's fur was extremely tough, its arrow only pierced the skin, not only did not kill it, but it stimulated the wolf even more violently.

Seeing this, Xu Taiping didn't hesitate, and immediately took the bow and arrow and ran towards the east of the forest once again.

But this time, the monster wolf that went mad didn't care whether there were trees in front of it or not, and broke it all.

In this way, the distance between Xu Taiping and the demon wolf shortened rapidly.

"come!"

But when Xu Taiping was less than three feet away from the demon wolf and came to a big tree hung with cloth strips, he suddenly stopped and pulled out the hunting knife from his waist, then turned around and roared at the demon wolf, posing A life-and-death posture.

"Roar!"

This monster wolf was already enraged by Xu Taiping, but seeing him being so provocative again, it immediately roared, jumped up, opened its mouth and fangs, and rushed towards Xu Taiping fiercely.

"boom!"

Just when the wolf was about to swallow Xu Taiping in one gulp, Xu Taiping suddenly turned the edge of the knife and slashed at a vine of the big tree beside him.

"Shh!"

The moment the vine was cut off, a wooden thorn cut from a bucket thick and thin log was hung by a thick vine and flew out from Xu Taiping's side, just in time to meet the wolf that was pounced on.

"Ow!"

With a scream, the huge wooden thorn was driven heavily into the wolf's chest with the momentum of flying.

This wooden thorn was originally used by Xu Taiping to deal with wild boars, but he did not expect it to come in handy at this time.

"Roar!"

But immediately Xu Taiping found out that the thickness of the monster wolf's skin was unimaginable, even the wooden thorn couldn't pierce it completely.

"Just try it."

At a critical moment, Xu Taiping jumped up holding the hunting knife in both hands, and then he didn't care if it would cause the zhenqi to go out of order. It hit the wound on the wolf's lung.

"boom!"

There was another loud noise in the forest.

Xu Taiping's true qi slashed out with this knife, it actually sliced ​​open the wolf's lungs, and the blood immediately sprayed out like raindrops.

"Crack..."

Before Xu Taiping came back to his senses, the hunting knife in his hand was broken into several pieces, and his two arms began to swell rapidly, swelling like elephant legs in the blink of an eye.

Severe pain woke him up.

"It's not good, my true qi has started to go away!"

Seeing this, Xu Taiping's heart tightened, and then he sat down cross-legged and began to run the "Can Xia Gong", guiding all the zhenqi in his arms back to his dantian.

"call……"

After a while, Xu Taiping, who finally let the zhenqi in his body to run smoothly, let out a long breath.

At this moment, he was full of fear.

Just now, he suddenly circulated his zhenqi on impulse, which almost caused the zhenqi in his body to run out of control, and the consequences would be disastrous.

"I remember that in the explanation about Yanglu Mountain, there have been no jackals here. How could a wolf suddenly appear, and it was a demon wolf."

Xu Taiping stood up and walked to the side of the monster wolf very vigilantly.

At this moment, the demon wolf was dying, Xu Taiping's hunting knife had a hole in its lung, no matter how tenacious its vitality was, it would not last long.

"It's getting dark, let's go back to the small courtyard first, and ask Tongjing about the demon wolf. Don't come here to hunt for the time being, and this time, I have to buy a martial skill no matter what."

After looking at the sky, Xu Taiping decided to go back first.

Although the Green Bamboo Residence where he lives is dilapidated, according to the explanation in the jade slip, the courtyard of the Green Bamboo Residence is also surrounded by formations, and ordinary beasts and monsters cannot get close to it, so it is very safe.

"Wait, the body of this monster wolf should be able to exchange for some merit coins, right? Forget it, whether it's worth it or not, we'll drag it back first."

Xu Taiping, who was about to leave, suddenly thought of something, so he turned around and dragged the wolf's body up, and then dragged him out of the forest.

Although he still looks like a teenager and his figure is a little thin, but now he is very strong, and it is no problem to drag such a monster wolf.

……

Not long after Xu Taiping left, a rotting figure walked out of the forest.

"This stupid wolf, you can't do such a small thing well!"

After seeing the pool of blood on the ground and the thick wooden thorn, the man suddenly cursed.

"Now that the snake has been stunned, it seems that only I can lead him out of the yard by myself. I have to find a way as soon as possible. The king is already urging me. If I don't take this kid's heart back, I will kill him." It's the king's appetizer!"

The figure stomped its feet and cursed.

If Fairy Lingyue was not asleep, she would definitely be able to recognize this person at this time.

That's right, this man was transformed by the ghost that was peeping outside the courtyard that night.
