Chapter 24: Porcupine
Xun Le's generosity made Yuan Dian quite favorable, and two hours later, the three of them came to a clearing, and after a short rest, they continued to move forward.
"Two brothers, there may be some low-level demon beasts in front of you, although the danger is not great, but you should also pay more attention. As they were moving forward, Xun Le reminded the two of them in a timely manner, and Yuan Dian and Wu Huan both nodded.
It didn't take long for the three of them to enter a low-lying place in the mountains and forests, looking at the surrounding trees and a small pond in the center, Yuan Dian secretly thought: "Grandpa once brought me here in this place, found a few spiritual grasses here, and also encountered the attack of more than a dozen porcupines, but grandpa roared at that time, and more than a dozen porcupines died immediately, so that they got a lot of gains." ”
Just when Yuan Dian thought of this, Xun Le's words also rang out: "Two brothers, I used to find a few spirit grasses here, now let's look around separately to see if we can get something, and then it's not too late to move inside." ”
After saying this, Xun Le squeezed his eyes, and said happily: "However, say it in advance, this time it depends on chance, whoever finds the spirit grass is who's it, and there is no need to divide it equally!"
Xun Le said this, Wu Huan agreed, and this place, Yuan Dian had been here once before, so he naturally knew that it was possible to find some spirit grass here, and then he agreed, but just as the three of them were choosing their own direction and preparing to go forward to find it, Huo Ye's voice appeared in Yuan Dian's ears:
"Yuan boy, don't think about looking for any spiritual flowers and spiritual grass, let's think about your own lives!"
As soon as Huo Ye said this, Yuan Dian's heart suddenly tightened, although Huo Ye was seriously injured, he was only a soul body, but his divine sense was extremely powerful, and he could naturally predict the danger in advance, at this time, Yuan Dian immediately asked: "Huo Ye, what's wrong? Is there any danger? Why didn't the juniors find out?"
"What's the danger? Grandma's bear thing, boy, it's a worry about your life, five miles away in front of you, there are more than thirty porcupines running quickly in your direction, whether to go or stay, you can decide for yourself!" Speaking of this, Huo Ye's voice stopped abruptly, but Yuan Dian's face changed greatly.
Porcupine, an ordinary demon beast, an adult porcupine is more than six feet long, with a sturdy body, rough skin and thick meat, hair like steel needles, amazing defense, two sharp fangs more than half a foot long on the mouth, extremely aggressive, and generally avoided by monks in the early stage of condensation.
However, the sharp fangs on the mouth like a dagger are not the strongest means of attack of the porcupine, the porcupine is covered with slender hairs like steel needles, especially a row of more than ten vertical back hairs on the back, once attacked or angry, under the shaking, the hair is like an arrow, even if the monk in the middle stage of condensation does not dodge in time, he will also be hit and seriously injured.
Of course, porcupines are not as valuable as the treasure rats, those two fangs, more than a dozen arrow-like back hairs on the back are all materials for refining tools, and the refining place has been open for many years, if you kill an adult porcupine, you can sell it for more than thirty spirit stones, which is also a good income.
Porcupines are often gathered in groups of several or a dozen, more than thirty large porcupine herds are extremely rare, for this kind of demon beast, Yuan Dian is no stranger, it was also in this place before, Yuan Dian and Grandpa also encountered a pig herd composed of more than ten porcupines, but Grandpa roared, and all the porcupines were killed immediately.
Since up to now, Yuan Dian didn't know his grandfather's specific cultivation, so naturally he couldn't evaluate the power of his grandfather's roar, but in the face of a large herd of more than thirty porcupine pigs, Yuan Dian knew that the three of them were all mid-stage condensation monks, and even if the three of them worked hard, they might not be the opponents of more than thirty porcupines, and if they didn't get it, they would be injured and die.
"Brother Yuan, why are you standing there, hurry up! Otherwise, you won't get the Linghua Lingcao, don't blame the two brothers for bullying you!" Seeing Yuan Dian standing there for a while, Xun Le urged with a smile.
But Yuan Dian suddenly lay on the ground, listened to the two breaths with his ears on the ground, and then quickly stood up, his face changed greatly, and said to Xun Le and Wu Huan: "Brother Xun, Brother Ang, it seems that a large number of demon beasts are rapidly approaching us. ”
Although Huo Ye warned in advance and informed Yuan Dian of the news of the imminent arrival of the porcupine herd, Yuan Dian couldn't directly say this crisis for no reason!
Seeing Yuan Dian like this, Xun Le was stunned for a moment, and then like Yuan Dian, he quickly lay on the ground and listened, and then jumped up instantly, but he didn't look panicked, but his face was full of excitement, his round eyes were full of golden light, and even his nose was shiny, and he clapped his hands excitedly and said to the two: "It's the sound of arching the ground, it should be a herd of porcupines, although I can't determine the number, but it shouldn't be much, with the strength of the three of us, maybe we can gain a lot this time." ”
"A herd of porcupines, a dozen at most, and the three of us should be able to handle it. Between the words, Wu Huan rarely expressed his strong approval, while Yuan Dian had a bitter face, and he had the heart to tell the truth, but he couldn't say it.
If he bluntly said that it was a huge herd of more than thirty porcupines, it would obviously be inconsistent with his current cultivation, which was likely to cause some unnecessary speculation, at this time, looking at Xun Le and Wu Huan with golden light in their eyes, Yuan Dian could only remind again with a nervous face: "Two brothers, if there are more than a dozen porcupine herds, it will be a little troublesome for the three of us to deal with it, it's really not good......"
didn't wait for Yuan Dian to finish speaking, Wu Huan squeezed his bitter face rarely, showed a smile, and said to Yuan Dian: "Brother Yuan, don't worry, even a dozen porcupines we can deal with, don't be afraid of your jokes, Wu's ancestors inherited and killed pigs, for this porcupine, Wu has some research, he has killed a few heads alone before, and you will listen to me for a while, and you will kill as many as you want to keep it." ”
While speaking, Wu Huan looked around left and right, and then said to Xun Le and Yuan Dian: "Brother Xun, Brother Yuan, you come with me, those porcupines should be here to drink water, and we will ambush by the pond for a while, and while they are drinking water, the ambush will kill them all, I think we will gain a lot this time." ”
While speaking, Wu Huan turned around and ran towards the side of the pond, Xun Le smiled and followed closely, while Yuan Dian could only smile bitterly and run away, and at the same time secretly said in his heart: "It seems that I can only escape for a while." ”
Under the leadership of Wu Huan, the three of them hid in a big tree next to the pond, waiting for the arrival of the porcupine herd, and at the same time, Wu Huan moved his bitter face to introduce the experience of killing porcupines to the two of them: "Brother Xun, Brother Yuan, ordinary monks kill porcupines are aimed at the soft neck of porcupines, and strive to kill them directly, which is not wrong, but it is a means to deal with a single porcupine, and it will not work when encountering a porcupine herd." ”
"I tell you, after a few moments the herd of porcupines arrives, we will attack their four hooves, and if we cut off their four hooves and make them fall, they will be furious, and the bristles on their backs will shoot out in all directions, which is equivalent to cannibalism, and we will reap the benefits of the fishermen at that time. ”
After listening to Wu Huan's story, Xun Le smiled and said loudly: "Okay, good, Brother Wu, you really have research, now we will eat this group of porcupines." ”
Yuan Dian just smiled bitterly, and then looked at a low mountain not far away.
In less than half a moment, there was a humming sound from the other side of the mountain range not far away, hearing this sound, Wu Huan's eyes leaked essence, the cold light flashed in his hand, and a long knife appeared, the grade was not low, it was a quenching spirit weapon, and Xun Le was also ready, his hands flashed, and two long daggers appeared, both of which were quenched spirit weapons, and their quality was obviously better than the long knife in Wu Huan's hand.
After a thick 'hum' sound, a strong porcupine nearly seven feet long appeared on the mountain not far away, obviously the leader of this group of porcupines, this porcupine stood on the mountain, raised his head, his fangs were sharp, his backthorns were erected, he looked around the mountain, especially looked at the pond in the center of the depression, and saw that there was no danger, and then turned his head to the other side of the mountain and made a few 'hum' sounds.
Then he ran quickly towards the pond, and then a second porcupine appeared on the ridge, and then a third, and then a fourth...... More porcupines appear.
When the porcupine appeared, Wu Huan immediately whispered: "The porcupine king has appeared, one, two, three...... 10.11......"
After only a few breaths, Wu Huan's face tensed, because the number that appeared from his mouth at this time was thirty, and it was not over yet.
