Chapter 73 Hunting

The countryside at night seemed particularly peaceful, without the hustle and bustle of the town, with the lights on and the scene of blooming flowers.

From time to time, the cries of wild animals were heard from the Hugang Mountains. At night, every household closed the doors and windows for fear of wild animals attacking. Under normal circumstances, wild animals would not come to the edge, but they were afraid of the possibility.

At this time, Lin Yi was sitting cross-legged on the bed. After dinner, he had a brief conversation with Chen Lao and learned that Xiao Yue'er's father was injured by a wild animal during a hunting trip and died. Xiao Yue'er's mother was in great pain due to the departure of her husband and died of depression soon after.

At that time, Xiao Yue'er was only a little over one year old, and there was no shadow of her parents in her mind. When she grew up a little, she saw that other children in the village had parents, and she asked Chen Lao from time to time, where were their parents? Why didn't they come back to see Yue'er.

Chen Lao could only say every time that they went on a long journey and would not be back for a long time.

Without the labor of Xiaoyue'er's father, Chen Lao's life became extremely difficult. Chen Lao was old and could no longer hunt. The meat was given by people in the village, but other people in the village were not well-off, so it was difficult to have meat a few times a year.

Xiaoyue'er has grown up to now, and the chance of eating meat is rare.

That's why he reacted today.

Lin Yi sympathized with Chen Lao's family very much, and at the same time he admired Chen Lao's character. Although he was forced by life, he did not lose his kind heart.

Recalling his childhood, although it was also a poor and backward village, at least he could be self-sufficient and the family lived in harmony. I don't know how my parents are now.

From the moment I entered the sect, my parents never saw me again, so as not to make them sad. Since pursuing the immortal path, this road is destined to be lonely, and no one can accompany me.

Slowly pulling back my thoughts, I don't remember how long it has been since I meditated at night, calmed my mind, and operated the Wuwei Jue. Although the spiritual energy is thin, it is better than nothing, accumulating bit by bit.

As the Wuwei Jue Qi training level mental method was running, strands of spiritual energy from all around gathered towards Lin Yi, entered the meridians through the pores, kept wandering in the meridians, and finally gathered in the Dantian.

The previously dry Dantian, with the infusion of spiritual energy, gradually regained its vitality, and the Ziyang Sword in the Dantian kept wandering around, showing a feeling of cheering and joy.

But there was too little spiritual energy in the air, and soon there was no spiritual energy in the surrounding space.

Fortunately, this place is on the edge of the mountain range, and the spiritual energy in the mountain range is relatively richer than other places. It will slowly drift over and gradually fill this space.

Unable to absorb spiritual energy anymore, Lin Yi sank his attention into his body, slowly introducing the previous spiritual energy from the Dantian into the meridians again, so that the meridians of the body can be nourished and warmed.

Every breakthrough, if the meridians do not meet the requirements, the breakthrough is very dangerous. If there was no mysterious bead last time, Lin Yi might have died at this time.

As the spiritual energy continued to flow in the meridians and dantian, Lin Yi separated part of his spiritual consciousness to look at the mysterious bead, but it was still the same, staying in the deepest part of his mind, spinning constantly.

Unable to see what was going on, Lin Yi put all his energy into cultivation.

Time always passed inadvertently, the mountains were high and the waters were long, and I didn't know when the sun had risen from the east, and all things revived, welcoming the arrival of the morning sun.

Xiaoyue'er's childish laughter also came from outside the thatched house.

Xiaoyue'er knocked on the door, "Big brother, big brother, get up, the sun is shining on your butt."

But after knocking for a while, there was no movement on the door. Xiaoyue'er pushed the door open with force and found that the door was not locked, but the room was empty, and there was no sign of Lin Yi at all.

Xiaoyue'er ran out anxiously,

"Grandpa"

"Big brother is gone."

Upon hearing the news, Old Chen rushed over and looked at the room with Xiaoyue, only to see that the quilt was neatly folded, and there was nothing else.

"Grandpa, do you know where big brother went?"

Xiao Yueer looked at Chen Lao sadly.

Chen Lao picked up Xiao Yueer and comforted her: "Xiao Yueer, don't be sad, big brother may have gone out first and will be back later."

Lin Yi is just a passer-by after all, and he will leave sooner or later, but he didn't expect it to be in this way, Chen Lao thought in his heart.

Xiao Yueer snuggled in Chen Lao's arms, "Grandpa, is it true? Big brother will really come back later?"

Chen Lao smiled and said to Xiao Yueer, "It's true, Grandpa promises."

A figure rushed out of the forest, and he was seen dragging two wild boars behind him. Each wild boar weighed more than 200 kilograms, especially one estimated to be more than 400 kilograms. The wild boars were tied up and could not move, and could only wail constantly.

This person was Lin Yi. Since he knew what happened to Chen Lao's family, he always wanted to find a thing to repay Chen Lao, and also solve Chen Lao's livelihood.

After finishing his training, he came to the mountains early to look for prey and met these two wild boars.

Lin Yi dragged the wild boars towards the village.

The wild boars' calls alarmed the villagers from afar, and many people rushed over here.

Chen Lao did not tell others about Lin Yi's arrival in the village. They saw a young man dragging two wild boars towards the village.

A woman pinched the man next to her and said, "Dog, who is this man?"

The man was pinched by the woman and grimaced. He quickly took the woman's hand away and said, "Madam, I have told you so many times, don't use your mouth, it hurts."

The man rubbed his pinched arm.

"Besides, this is the first time I have seen this person. How can I know who he is?"

The woman glared at the man, "Gouzi, you want to rebel."

"If you have a future, I will treat you as my ancestor. Look at your bear-like appearance. Every time you go hunting, you never come back empty-handed."

"Look at me, it's been so long since I've eaten meat. I'm only so young and I've already turned into a slutty woman."

"I have been unlucky for eight lifetimes, so I married you and lived a life without enough food and clothing."

"It's better to die and be free, once and for all."

The woman couldn't stop talking and kept scolding the man.

The man stood there not daring to move, thinking to himself, "I am really short of words and have a short memory, so why do I talk so much?"

The villagers nearby were already used to it, but they still watched with relish. The bustle of other people's homes was added to the ordinary life, adding flavor and making people feel happy.

But soon the villagers were attracted to Lin Yi, or rather to the wild boar behind Lin Yi.

Two wild boars of this size, if they were owned by one's own family, would make the family rich for several months.

Adults and children quickly gathered around Lin Yi. There were about thirty people in total.

The child exclaimed, "The wild boar is so big!"
