Volume 1: Spring in Wulong Town Chapter 120 Completed! Mission Impossible!
“Master…Master…”
In the shivering frosty mist, Tang Xiaotang's voice was getting closer and closer.
There was a heat and anxiety in her voice that could penetrate the fog.
Tang Xiaotang's voice was cheerful and energetic most of the time, and Tang Zheng rarely heard such a tone of near "panic" in her voice.
She is scared.
Afraid of separation, afraid of losing.
Although they have only known each other for three months, in the minds of both Tang Zheng and Tang Xiaotang, they are already blood-related siblings.
"Xiaotang, stand where you are and don't move forward." Tang Zheng shouted with great effort. The soil softened just now and his dagger left two long cuts on the rock wall and slid down more than ten meters.
It was these ten or so meters that made him realize what it meant to be bone-chillingly cold!
It is totally unimaginable what would happen if I really fell in.
He was now inserting the two daggers into the rock wall one by one and climbing up slowly.
The frost fog was too thick, and Tang Xiaotang had no experience in surviving in the wild, so it was easy for her to get into danger.
Tang Xiaotang hadn't heard Tang Zheng's voice just now, and her face had turned pale. When she suddenly heard Tang Zheng speaking, she instinctively wanted to rush towards him.
If it was the Tang Xiaotang from three months ago, she would have rushed over without caring about anything, but... the teacher's lessons had made her understand that the more impulsive, the worse it would be!
The Master said that when faced with major events, one must remain calm.
Tang Zheng said to stand where you are, so then stand where you are!
"Believe in the Master, he will definitely be able to overcome the danger. If I go there alone, I will only be a burden." Tang Xiaotang gritted her teeth, clenched her fists, and nailed her feet to the spot.
"Huh..." Tang Zheng breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Tang Xiaotang's footsteps stopped. He pulled out the dagger in his hand again, lifted it up, and inserted it into the rock wall.
After several consecutive thrusts of the two daggers, Tang Zheng had already approached the shore of the cold pond again.
Suddenly, there was a soft "ding" sound.
Just as the sharp Wushe inserted into the last stone beside the cold pond and was about to lead Tang Zheng out of the cold pond, the stone suddenly bloomed with a frost-like luster and instantly wrapped Wushe...
The weight of the sword without the sheath suddenly became heavier under the frost.
"Or..." Tang Zheng felt a little uncomfortable again.
If the strange stone was inserted into a dagger instead of a scabbard, then because of the smooth touch of the dagger, he would definitely be able to move the dagger away immediately and would not let the frost cover the entire dagger...
However, Tang Zheng's reaction speed was not slowed down by this sudden setback.
As soon as the weight of the unsheathed dagger increased and did not pose any burden to Tang Zheng's own weight, he immediately loosened his hand, and with the power of the sword, he flipped over and fell to the ground.
Just after Tang Zheng let go, frost formed on the sheath with a crackling sound. The frost grew bigger and bigger, and within just a few seconds, it was as big as five or six eggs.
If Tang Zheng had been a little slower, he might have been dragged down with him...
After Wuhao fell into the cold pond, Tang Zheng stood by and listened for a long time, but he didn't hear any echo!
"It's bottomless..."
Listening to the complete absence of any echo from the bottom of the pool, even Tang Zheng felt a little scared.
If he really fell into the cold pond, no matter how experienced or skilled he was, he would have absolutely no chance of survival!
However, although it was not very convenient to use without a sheath, this dagger was, after all, a weapon given by Master Lu Huang, and it was also the first piece of equipment he had set his eyes on in Xingyao Continent. It was a bit regretful that Tang Zheng had buried it deep in the cold pond.
“I wonder if there will be another chance in the future to jump down and fish it out?” Tang Zheng looked back at the cold pond and pinched his fingers.
According to the records in the Star History Book, those nine-star masters could fly into the sky and burrow underground.
If he is really strong enough, it shouldn't be difficult for him to retrieve a souvenir dagger, right?
Tang Zheng smiled, loosened his clenched fingers, and without looking at Han Tan again, he walked towards Tang Xiaotang with big strides...
"Master!" Tang Xiaotang finally saw Tang Zheng.
"It's okay, it's okay..." Tang Zheng opened his arms, ready for her to jump into his arms and act like a little bird.
"That stag ran over there!" Xiaotang stopped in front of his eyes and pointed to the southeast. Then, she saw Tang Zheng's outstretched arms and looked confused. "Master, are you stretching?"
Tang Zheng had no choice but to twist his posture of preparing to hug into stretching, muttering: "Fuck you, what a script!"
…
Although the injuries on that stag were not as serious as those on the other stag that had been killed, the deep and shallow wounds on its body left bloodstains on the ground.
It didn't take Tang Zheng and Xiao Tang long to catch up with the stag.
The fog gradually dissipated, and they chased the stag and returned to the deer cave...
At the entrance of the Deer Cave, the battle between Xu Qingyan, Shisan and Tang Zixie was nearing its end.
Although the three-star stag was at the same level as Xu Qingyan, its combat power was higher than Xu Qingyan's. However, when Tang Zheng was leaving, he had already arranged the cooperation between Xu Qingyan, Shisan and Tang Zixie. After they executed it, they found that the allocation of different combat positions and the coordination of the order of attack were really very effective!
However, as the only three-star warrior among them, Xu Qingyan had suffered a lot of injuries.
"No need to fight head-on. Have you ever seen Spanish bullfighting?" Tang Zheng watched them fight to the end, still fighting head-on, and realized that he forgot to remind them of one last thing, "Tease. At this time, just tease it!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Tang Zheng realized that they had never seen a Spanish bullfight!
Although the pressure of survival was very high in the previous life, information was well developed after all, and even a seven-year-old child received more and more extensive information than an adult in the Xingyao Continent.
Even a player who has just started playing the game can quickly learn the various subtle techniques and rich experience summarized by countless predecessors. Standing on the shoulders of search engines, he can naturally see farther and learn faster.
The rest depends on each person's understanding and effort. In comparison, Xingyao Continent's disadvantage in this regard is very obvious.
Tang Zheng and Tang Xiaotang worked together to kill the two-star intermediate stag first, and then joined in teasing the three-star stag.
"Three, two, one..."
"It's not working!"
"Okay, done."
Tang Zheng announced the fall of the three-star stag with three consecutive sentences. However, after falling to the ground, the three-star stag did not die immediately. Xu Qingyan directly added two sword strikes to it, killing it completely.
Thirteen quickly chopped off a leg of the three-star male deer and smiled at Tang Zheng and the others: "It's not poisonous, you can eat it!"
Tang Xiaotang was stunned when she saw his excited eyes.
In such a vast forest like Wuqing Mountain, are there so few edible species?
"Ordinary wild fruits and beasts are also food for monsters. It is not easy for them to snatch food from the monsters' mouths. As for monsters... there are only a handful of non-poisonous species." Xu Qingyan said lightly as he watched Thirteen process the deer leg and put it on his back.
Tang Zheng smiled and shook his head.
He took out the inner cores of the two male deer, then pointed at the deer carcasses and said, "If you can carry them, take them all with you."
Thirteen grinned again, and his dark little face turned into a flower.
Tang Zheng's several storage bags were full of food, so he didn't have to worry about food at all.
The inner pills of the six-eared white plum deer are not big. Each one is only the size of a quail egg and is oval in shape. The inner pill is fiery red. As soon as you hold it in your hand, you can feel the violent power of the sun sweeping over you...
Thirteen pointed at the inner pill in his hand and said, "Eat it while it's hot!"
Tang Zheng raised his eyes and said, "Eat? Just eat it like this?"
Thirteen nodded seriously: "Hurry up! It's too late, it's useless!"
Before going up the mountain, Tang Zheng had heard from Ban Yilou that the inner elixir was very difficult to preserve, and after taking it out, it had to be put into the elixir jade box as soon as possible, otherwise it would soon become ineffective.
"Well, don't worry." Tang Zheng took out the box and temporarily put the inner cores of the other two stags into it.
Although Tang Zheng has a strong ability to adapt, he is a person who traveled through time from a civilized society. It is really difficult for him to make up his mind to put something like this "while it's hot" into his mouth while it is still covered in blood.
Seeing that Tang Zheng had put away the inner elixir, Shisan nodded, easily dealt with the deer corpses, carried the two male deer that were several times heavier than him, and prepared to take them back.
"It's unbelievable..." Tang Zixie treated his own and Xu Qingyan's injuries, then looked around. He couldn't believe that this was the place they felt helpless about half a day ago.
You know, this is a group of six-eared white plum deer with seven two-star primary-level, two two-star high-level, and one three-star primary-level!
They only have one three-star expert, so it is almost impossible for them to complete this hunting mission.
But, they did it!
The three stags that Tang Zheng needed were all killed and their inner elixirs were taken out.
"Master, this is incredible." Tang Xiaotang felt a sense of pride in her heart, "Attracting monsters... It's amazing!"
"Actually, I still have to thank the three 'extras' from the Zhaixing Sect. They were kind enough to lead away seven female deer that were quite powerful but of no value to me." Tang Zheng tossed the jade box containing the inner elixir in his hand. The heavy feeling made him feel a sense of accomplishment.
However, his good feeling didn't last long...
Immediately, he heard the familiar sound of the six-eared white deer running.
"Huh? Are those seven female deer? No, there are only four left!" Tang Xiaotang turned around when she heard the voice and saw the female deer that had been led away by the disciples of the Zhaixing Sect running back covered in blood.
Everyone suppressed the fatigue from the great battle, raised their weapons and prepared to fight.
However, to everyone's surprise, the female deer completely ignored their "husband-killing" enemies and only let out miserable cries when they saw the dead male deer on Thirteen's back.
Without hesitation, they rushed back to the cave they had been in before - the place they thought was the safest.
"It's indeed the nature of herbivores..." Tang Zheng shook his head.
Even though they had refined the star power and turned into monster beasts, after the death of the stag, these female deer no longer had the courage to fight .
Tang Zheng smiled and ignored the group of frightened female deer. Instead, he looked outside the dense forest.
"Since you're here, don't hide yourself!" Tang Zheng said with a playful smile.
"Huh?" Tang Xiaotang was startled, "Who are you talking to..."
Before she could finish her question, she saw five young men, also wearing the uniforms of the Star-Picking Sect, walking out of the dense forest.
Tang Zheng stroked his forehead, looked at their neatly-matched clothes, and subconsciously said, "Taobao hot item, buy four get one free..."
