Chapter 682 Bear Demon in the Mountain

Time passed and Zhou Yiqiao had been staying in Haihe Village for three months.

In three months, Zhou Yiqiao managed to recover about 70% of his spiritual power by relying on the elixir left in his storage bag.

In the past three months, almost every villager came to look for the medicine. Zhou Yiqiao refused all comers and used his spiritual energy as a cultivator to completely cure everyone.

......

On this day, Chen Tianyou led the hunting team in Haihe Village and walked into the mountains and forests with great interest.

They were hunting in the mountains today and wanted to take the opportunity to pick some precious herbs.

Thinking like this, Chen Tianyou turned his attention to Zhou Yiqiao who was following him.

"Junior Brother Zhou, you don't have the power to restrain a chicken, why would you come to this wilderness with big guys like us?"

"Just tell us the herbs you need, and we will naturally pick them for you."

When Zhou Yiqiao heard this, he shook his head and made up an excuse at random.

"This herb is similar to many kinds of poisonous weeds. Except for people like Zhou who have been familiar with pharmacology since childhood, it is difficult for ordinary people to distinguish it."

"Brother Chen, if you pick the wrong one, it will be a waste of time. Why don't you come with me to save some time?"

In fact, the reason why he insisted on following Chen Tianyou and his party into the mountains and forests was that he felt a sudden burst of weak spiritual power fluctuations in the mountains and forests in recent days.

This fluctuation of spiritual power was only at the late stage of Qi refining. Although it was not a threat to him at all, to the villagers of Haihe Village, it was indeed a real natural disaster.

Zhou Yiqiao's trip was to take advantage of this opportunity to secretly eliminate this threat for Haihe Village, which could also be regarded as a disguised settlement of the cause and effect between himself and Haihe Village.

After all, after a while, the Jindan family that controls this place will come regularly to test the spiritual roots of the villagers, and he will inevitably follow them away.

Once he leaves, there is a high probability that he will never see him again. If he does not understand the cause and effect before leaving, it will definitely affect his future path.

"It's strange. In recent days, for some reason, there have been a lot fewer beasts in the mountains and forests for no reason."

While Zhou Yiqiao was deep in thought, the leader, Chen Tianyou, raised his hand to signal everyone to stop, carefully took out the empty trap on the ground, and lamented.

As soon as these words came out, the accompanying Orion immediately echoed his words.

"Who says it's not the case? No matter how poor my family was in the past, they could still eat a meal of game in three days. In the past half month, except for a few deer, we haven't seen any game. We can only go fishing in the river."

"What should we do? As the winter solstice approaches, my wife still hopes that I can hunt a big guy to buy some clothes for the child."

For a time, complaints were everywhere, Chen Tianyou's eyebrows froze, a cold light flashed across his eyes, and he said coldly.

"What a noise!"

After being scolded by Chen Tianyou, the originally noisy scene suddenly became quiet, and a group of hunters bowed their heads and remained silent.

Seeing that the scene finally fell silent, he spoke again to appease everyone.

"Our hunting this time is mainly to collect the medicinal materials needed by Little Brother Zhou, and secondly to hunt mountain beasts."

"Don't worry, everyone. If there is not enough harvest for the winter before the winter solstice, I will ask your sister-in-law to process the poultry raised at home and distribute it to everyone."

Chen Tianyou said that for this reason, no one would be dissatisfied.

Everyone moved forward again, this time they were finally full of energy.

But not even a quarter of an hour later, there was suddenly a long and distant howl of a wolf, which made everyone's eardrums hurt.

"not good!"

As the leader of the hunting team, Chen Tianyou could infer the distance between the wolf and his group as soon as he heard the howl of the wolf.

Just as he was about to warn everyone to be careful, he felt a smelly whirlwind sweeping in and passing by his ears.

"careful!"

Before Chen Tianyou could finish his shout, the whirlwind pounced directly on the hunter at the far end.

It was only at this moment that everyone saw clearly that the whirlwind's true form was a huge bear demon that was a foot long!

I saw the wolf demon opening its bloody mouth, its sharp fangs shining like metal, and it was biting the hunter's neck without hesitation.

At the critical moment, Chen Tianyou drew his bow and fired. Several feather arrows shot out, hitting the monster's eyes and abdomen directly.

"Ding! Ding! Ding!"

However, except for the sound of gold and iron hitting each other, the bear demon did not suffer any harm.

The bear demon was annoyed by Chen Tianyou's move and gave up on the already angry hunter under his claws. Then he jumped up and turned towards Chen Tianyou to kill him.

Among the adults, only Chen Tianyou has shown any kung fu skills, and now he is the leader of this group of hunters. Driven by the dual motivation of confidence and responsibility, he did not retreat immediately when faced with this demon bear that was obviously not a mortal creature. Come in and come forward.

He flew up, clamped one of the bear demon's claws between his legs, twisted his whole body, and quickly flipped his wrist, and the sharp dagger was already placed at the bear demon's throat.

Countless sparks shot out in the air, and Chen Tianyou felt like he had stabbed a piece of metal and could no longer move forward.

A hint of human mockery seemed to flash through the bell-like chimney of the bear demon, and then with a wave of its bear paw the size of a cattail leaf fan, Chen Tianyou was directly knocked away.

"Quick... quick."

As he flew upside down, blood spilled from the corner of Chen Tianyou's mouth, but he still roared with all his strength, urging everyone to run for their lives.

When all the hunters heard this, they ran away and dispersed like birds and beasts for a while.

But can a mortal's speed really be comparable to that of a demonic beast?

The bear demon may seem huge, but its speed far exceeds that of everyone.

It swayed and appeared behind a slowly escaping hunter. With a slap of its paw, it knocked the hunter unconscious.

Chen Tianyou fell down on the tree trunk, his chest heaving violently, and his vision gradually blurred.

Already out of strength, he had no possibility of action anymore, and could only watch helplessly as one hunter after another fell, not knowing whether to live or die.

He used his last bit of strength to look around, but did not see Zhou Yiqiao, who had been following him closely since entering the forest.

Somehow, Zhou Yiqiao's always confident face appeared in Chen Tianyou's mind.

"Brother Zhou is not a brat like us. He is a child of a wealthy family. He hopes to escape from here safely and return to his family."

As soon as the thought fell, Chen Tianyou closed his eyes, and his eyes were completely plunged into darkness.

Before he lost consciousness, he seemed to hear the voice of Zhou Yiqiao who had just blessed him.

"So it turns out that the spiritual energy fluctuations I felt in the village came from little guy like you?"

"It's a pity that Lingzhi was finally born and will die here today."
