Chapter 004 Wang Jiu
Tai Lisuo walked into the Warcraft Mountains again.
After entering the mountain on the first day, I wandered around the outskirts of the Monster Mountain Range for a long time but found nothing.
The next day we went into the mountains, but still found nothing.
We went into the mountains on the third day, but still found nothing.
Because the beasts in this world are not only strong, but also very fast. They are so fast that Tai Lisuo barely even sees their figures before they run away!
Occasionally, I encounter one that doesn't run that fast, but its speed is much faster than Taili Lock!
There was no harvest for several days, but Tai Lisuo did not give up. On the sixth day, he finally picked up two voles weighing more than ten kilograms.
Beasts that were not of the correct grade had no magic cores and no valuable materials on their bodies.
So when adventurers encounter wild beasts, they usually don't bother to deal with them. Only a few individuals will occasionally kill the wild beasts they encounter.
Since they have no value, no one will care about the bodies of these beasts after they are killed, which is a good deal for Taili Suo.
In Ping'an Town on the edge of the Monster Mountain Range, no one wants wild beasts, but there are grades of monsters, even level one monsters.
At present, Taili Suo does not have the strength to hunt, so meat is a big problem. The bigger problem is that the coarse salt is almost used up!
Food is the most important thing for people, and salt is the most fresh thing for food.
In the previous life on Earth, salt and MSG were must-haves, not to mention spices like thirteen spices. But after traveling to this hellhole , I was so poor that I couldn't even afford to buy edible salt!
In the world of time travel, are there any time travelers poorer than this?
Have it?
It hurts, my friend!
Learn from the pain and practice martial arts hard.
Kill monsters, earn gold coins, and buy salt.
After thinking it over, Tai Lisuo did not enter the Warcraft Mountains again for the time being, but instead practiced hard for more than a month.
Treat the dagger as a throwing knife for practice. After all, the dagger is made of metal and has a relatively sharp edge, so it should be able to cause some damage to ordinary beasts.
Tai Lisuo practiced his skills, adjusted his condition, and made preparations before he once again walked into the Warcraft Mountains.
Get up in the morning and bring some wild fruits and dried meat. The dried meat was specially left by Tai Lisuo as dry food when entering the Warcraft Mountains.
He carried a rough leather bag on his back, which he had sewn himself with animal skins and tendons, and filled it with some pebbles, and then he set off.
The pebbles were when Tai Lisuo was practicing throwing the knife. He felt that there was only a dagger, and it disappeared when the knife was thrown out.
So I picked up some pebbles at the pond in the valley. Since I didn't have a throwing knife, I used locust stones.
Tai Lisuo walked all the way into the Monster Mountain Range, which was a distance of almost 10 kilometers. There were already monsters in this area.
A first-level monster is actually not worth much. No one buys its fur and meat. Only its magic core is worth something. Three first-level magic cores can be sold for one gold coin.
The reason why Tai Lisuo ran to the place where the first-level monster might appear was to see if he could pick up the corpse of the monster.
Because I've heard before that after adventurers kill a level one monster, they will only take away the magic core, and no one wants the corpse of a level one monster.
After walking around carefully for a while, I was really lucky. I didn't encounter any adventurers or monsters, but I actually came across the corpse of a monster.
This monster is somewhat similar to a pig on Earth, but it is three or four times larger than a pig on Earth. It is lying on the ground with its head and body separated.
Tai Lisuo observed carefully for a while, and after making sure that there were no people or monsters nearby, he ran over quickly, cut off the two hind legs of the monster with a dagger, and ran away carrying it.
The body of this demon beast was too big for Tai Lisuo to carry away. Its two hind legs alone weighed over 100 kilograms.
Carrying the two hind legs of the monster, he returned safely to the valley. More than a hundred pounds of monster meat would last him for a while.
Although there is no salt, eating monster meat is better than eating only wild vegetables and fruits!
In this way, Tai Lisuo practiced diligently in this small valley on weekdays. He would go into the Monster Mountain Range several times after a period of time. After gaining something, he would continue to practice diligently.
After several months of persistent practice, conventional exercises such as push-ups and frog jumps have become of little use.
In order to continue to improve his physique, Tai Lisuo began to do weight-bearing exercises.
Because there were no suitable tools, Tai Li Suo took a lot of effort to get a log that was about 50 centimeters in diameter and nearly 10 meters long.
When I exercise every day, I run while carrying a log, or do squats while carrying a log.
In addition, they also used animal skins to make a few simple small bags and filled the bags with pebbles.
Then I tied it on my hands and calves and started practicing martial arts, and I insisted on doing this every day.
These methods were learned by Tai Lisuo from movies, TV shows, and online videos in his previous life.
The method is simple, but the effect is quite good.
Especially when practicing martial arts, because of the bag of pebbles tied to the body, all the moves were distorted beyond recognition.
It's like going back to the clumsy first time learning, and starting all over again from the beginning.
After getting used to this kind of weight-bearing training, Taili Suo's punching and kicking power and speed have made significant progress.
Spring goes and autumn comes, Taili Suo has been in this world for almost half a year, from spring to autumn.
Autumn is also the time when monsters are fat and strong. During this period, a large number of adventurers will frequently enter and exit the Monster Mountains to hunt monsters.
As a result, Tai Lisuo didn't dare to enter the Warcraft Mountains often. If he accidentally met other adventurers, he might be killed instantly by others in one move. That would be an unjust death!
Therefore, Tai Lisuo could only concentrate on practicing in the small valley.
As time goes by, autumn is almost over and winter will soon come.
From Xiaogouzi's memory, we know that in the winter in Ping'an Town, although it doesn't snow often, it is still quite cold.
I have no money and no supplies for the winter. I’m afraid this winter will be very difficult to endure!
After much deliberation, Tai Lisuo decided to go to the Monster Mountain Range. On the one hand, it was to find a chance to earn some money and to find supplies for the winter.
On the other hand, after weight-bearing training, Tai Lisuo's physical condition has been further improved, and his speed, strength and attack power have made significant progress.
This is also the reason why Tai Lisuo has the confidence to decide to enter the Warcraft Mountains again. Otherwise, he would just be sending himself to death if he went there.
This time, Tai Lisuo went more than 10 kilometers from the small valley into the Warcraft Mountains, but gained nothing along the way.
It seems that the first-level monsters outside the Monster Mountain Range were either killed by adventurers or ran away to hide somewhere else.
Having already reached the activity area of the first-level monsters, Tai Lisuo did not dare to go any deeper into the Monster Mountains. He could only estimate the approximate direction and advance horizontally in the area where the first-level monsters appeared.
I don’t know if it was because the progress towards the Warcraft Mountain Range was too smooth, or if Tai Lisuo’s good luck had run out!
After Tai Lisuo carefully advanced sideways for a while, he unexpectedly encountered a group of magical beasts, more than ten of them.
Tai Lisuo had just carefully turned around a towering tree when he was surrounded by magical beasts that suddenly rushed out.
The size of these monsters is twice that of the Tibetan Mastiffs on Earth, and they look more ferocious and powerful than the Tibetan Mastiffs.
What’s even worse is that Taili Suo didn’t discover the existence of these monsters in advance.
Tai Lisuo thought: "I'm afraid I'm in trouble this time. I can't even run away!"
Since I can't run away, I can only fight with all my strength!
Basic common sense still applies: don't be afraid if you can't escape.
If you act cowardly at this time, you will only make yourself lose face faster.
Tai Lisuo roared, holding a dagger in his left hand and a pebble in his right hand, staring at the monsters with the most ferocious eyes.
Although he seemed to be as powerful as the Warcraft, Tai Lisuo was actually very panicked and was shouting "Help" in his heart.
I can only hope that the loud roar just now can attract a few kind-hearted adventurers, so that I can have a chance to save my life.
If it attracted other magical beasts, or attracted more bloodthirsty adventurers, Tailishuo would be in trouble!
Could it be that he died less than a year after traveling here and doing nothing?
Will this become the shortest-lived time traveler in the world of time travel?
I don’t know if it’s the luck that the time traveler has, or if Tai Lisuo’s good luck has returned.
Just as Taili Lock was confronting more than ten monsters, the monsters made a low "woooo" roar and were about to tear Taili Lock into pieces.
A man walked out from the Warcraft Mountains.
The man was carrying a heavy sword on his shoulder that was nearly two meters long and almost half a foot wide, and there were a lot of blood all over his body.
The arrival of this person broke the balance between humans and monsters.
The dozen or so monsters surrounding Taili Lock obviously felt that the newcomer posed a greater threat.
They all turned to the new swordsman and growled.
Wang Jiu is an adventurer who often appears in Ping'an Town. In Ping'an Town, Wang Jiu is a relatively special existence.
Unlike other adventurers who usually come in groups of three or five, they form an adventurer team and go into the Warcraft Mountains to hunt Warcraft for a living.
Wang Jiu always went in and out of the Monster Mountain Range alone.
Wang Jiu was the only lone adventurer in Ping'an Town. Being a lone adventurer meant that one was very powerful, and Wang Jiu was indeed very powerful. An ordinary third-level warrior was no match for Wang Jiu.
Wang Jiu has been in the Monster Mountain Range for several days and today he is preparing to return to Ping'an Town to rest.
However, when they arrived at the outskirts of the Warcraft Mountains, they encountered more than 10 wind wolves surrounding a young man.
Wang Jiu also recognized this young man. His name was Xiaogouzi and he was an orphan who grew up in Ping'an Town.
In addition, a few months ago, this little guy was looking for someone to be his disciple, so it was hard for Wang Jiu not to know this guy.
"Isn't it that no one wants to take this kid as a disciple? When did he start practicing?"
Although Wang Jiu was a little curious about the puppy in front of him, he didn't intend to meddle in its affairs.
Wang Jiu didn't want to meddle in other people's business, but the monsters in front of him regarded him as a threat. They left the puppy alone and turned around to surround him.
Faced with this situation, Wang Jiu certainly would not be polite and he swung the heavy sword in his hand as fast as lightning.
The heavy sword made a sound of breaking through the air, and with just a few simple strikes, either chopping or slashing, five or six wind wolves were killed.
The remaining wind wolves knew they were no match for Wang Jiu, so they all turned around and ran away.
Wang Jiu looked at the five or six wind wolves lying in a pool of blood, then glanced at the stunned puppy. He did not take away the magic cores of these monsters and left without saying a word.
Surrounded by monsters;
Don’t be cowardly in times of crisis;
Fortunately, I met a lone adventurer;
Life-saving grace is in my heart
