Chapter 119 Trap
Forewarned is forearmed, without prejudging the waste.
Since you are going to Daheishan, you must be well prepared.
The environment in Daheishan is dangerous, with poisons everywhere, miasma permeating the air, and monsters everywhere.
Monsters will not reason with you. Basically, they will eat people they see. Those who do not eat people will also kill people. They will disembowel the monks and walk away.
Mo Hua grew up in Tongxian City, and his father was a demon hunter. He has been exposed to the dangers of Dahei Mountain since he was a child.
“Finally, be careful of monsters pretending to be dead. Monsters are cunning and will occasionally pretend to be dead when they accidentally fall into a trap. When you get closer to check, they will suddenly attack you. Nine times out of ten, you will not be able to guard against it.”
Although young monsters are not strong, they are highly vigilant, have keen senses, and are familiar with the environment. Under normal circumstances, they will not fall into the traps laid by monks.
“I'm glad you can ask me if this is inconvenient, but...”
"If it's inconvenient, forget it." Mo Hua said quickly.
He didn't really want his son to follow his old path, licking blood with the tip of a knife, and being frightened every day. If he was not careful, he would lose his way of survival. So he wanted his son to learn some formations so that he could make a living in the future.
The ink painting was slightly startled and thought for a moment.
Chu Guangshan himself was injured by a monster. Although he did not die, he would not be able to hunt monsters for the rest of his life, and it would be difficult to make a living.
“I would like to wait for Zhou'er to grow up a little, can you teach him some formations...”
“Uncle Chu, is there anything else?”
When Mo Hua was about to say goodbye, Chu Guangshan looked hesitant and stopped talking.
Mo Hua nodded frequently after hearing this.
“Traps are actually relatively simple, but you need to be patient and careful.”
Chu Guangshan was slightly stunned, then smiled and said: "I don't know where you learned these things, it makes sense. Since you don't mind it, I will teach you everything. But I still say the same thing, these things are just tricks, no It's worth a lot of thought.”
Mo Huaxiao said: "Aunt Jiang treats me very well, and you taught me how to use traps. If you have anything to say, just tell me."
“These are trivial tricks. Don't put too much thought into them. You should practice more and learn more formations. Only that one has a future…”
To learn the formation method, he had to become an apprentice, but he couldn't afford the spiritual stones.
Along the way, Jiang Yun looked back from time to time, telling Mo Hua to be careful, and asking Mo Hua if he was tired and if he wanted to take a rest.
Aunt Jiang's mother-in-law was coaxing the child. When she saw Mo Hua, she greeted her warmly.
“After setting up the trap, you need to eliminate traces, vegetation, trees, and rocks. What they were like before will remain the same after. You also need to eliminate the smell. Some smells cannot be eliminated, so you have to learn to cover them up..."
Chu Guangshan hurriedly waved his hands, but looking at his expression, it was obvious that something was wrong, but he didn't feel comfortable opening his mouth.
The storage bags used by monks in the Qi refining stage are relatively cheap and have a small space, so they really cannot hold too many things.
Fortunately, there is enough smoke in the kitchen, so at least we have enough food and clothing.
If you rush into the mountains, if you are not careful, the person will be gone, and it is very likely that there will be no bones left.
Chu Guangshan was very surprised when he saw Mo Hua, but he was very happy when he heard that Mo Hua wanted to see him for something.
It is a bit abrupt to ask about the craftsmanship that one relies on to make a living. Chu Guangshan was stunned for a moment and said with a smile:
Chu Guangshan's affairs are all detailed, one by one.
“Aunt Jiang, let me take it back for you.” Mo Hua volunteered.
Later on, I helped out at a restaurant and earned some spiritual stone income. After my husband's injury improved, I was able to supplement some of the household income, which made things easier.
Chu Guangshan's face turned red, he hesitated for a long time, and then he said:
“It's okay, Aunt Jiang.” Mo Hua smiled.
Then he could only ask for ink painting, but he couldn't afford the payment for ink painting, so he spoke like this, feeling ashamed and ashamed.
After walking for about a cup of tea, we arrived at Jiang Yun's house.
The little cat demon who accompanied Mo Hua to practice water walking was caught by Chu Guangshan in a trap.
Although part of the reason is that Mo Hua painted a wooden binding formation on the trap, making it difficult for the monster to break free.
“Hmm, don't worry, I won't fall behind in practice and formation.”
Mo Hua was touched in his heart, thought for a moment, and then said: "Everything in the world is enlightened by knowledge. The Tao of cultivation is broad and profound, encompassing all things. The great road is the Tao, and the small Tao is also the Tao."
Most of the casual cultivator families in Tongxian City are like this, simple and shabby.
Jiang Yun no longer refused, carrying a storage bag and walking in front. Mo Hua followed her with two big baby cabbages in his arms.
But the premise of these is that there will be no accidents.
Chu Guangshan quickly said: "Of course, if Zhou'er is stupid and doesn't have this talent, forget it..."
194.50.122.76
“Uncle Chu, I would like to ask you how to use traps?” Mo Hua asked.
"I am half a useless person. I cannot hunt monsters, so I can only spend some time on these trails and make some money. Otherwise, Aunt Jiang... it will be too hard..."
“When setting a trap, you must observe the mountain environment, guess where the monster will come from and where it will go, and place the trap on the path it must pass..."
Chu Guangshan paused and then said:
“How can that be done?”
“I will draw you some pictures later on how to make the trap. It's very simple. You can add some formations yourself and the effect should be better.”
Aunt Jiang's previous husband was seriously injured while hunting monsters. The family was in a deficit and had no income. There was also a child at home who was waiting to be fed. Even though she cried all day long, there was still nothing she could do.
Jiang Yun excused herself, saying she couldn't carry so many things.
Mo Hua's family situation was slightly better before, but that was because Liu Ruhua was diligent and thrifty, and Mo Shan was good at hunting monsters and had a strong body. There were no major changes in the family, so although he was poorer, his life was still good.
He looked at the ink painting, his mood fluctuated for a moment, and his eyes were slightly red. The words of gratitude came to my lips, but they felt too thin and I didn't know how to say them properly.
He pretended not to see anything, just smiled and said:
"Okay, but we have to wait until Zhou'er grows up. Even if his talent is not good enough, as long as he can learn a few formations, he can do deals with merchants and earn some spiritual stones. In the future, not to mention becoming rich and powerful, he should have enough food and clothing. of."
Chu Guangshan said this, but there was still hope in his eyes, and he even looked a little humble.
Therefore, if you want to go into the mountains, you must consider everything carefully and have a plan in advance, so as not to encounter danger and be caught off guard, with your life hanging by a thread.
“It's okay, I just have something to go to see Uncle Chu.”
“My parents only have one son like me.” Mo Hua said silently in his heart.
There are so many monster hunters, not everyone has the patience and care to study traps.
“Really?” Jiang Yun asked doubtfully.
Mo Hua smiled, and then went to find Jiang Yun's husband, Chu Guangshan.
Chu Guangshan nodded.
Mo Hua looks a little sad...
But on the other hand, it at least shows that Chu Guangshan has very sophisticated experience and experience in trap layout.
"Monsters like to eat fishy and rotten meat. You can use demon blood or rotten meat to cover up the smell, or you can use **** grass and other herbs with their own fishy smell."
“Yeah.” Mo Hua nodded.
But he had no choice but to do so. Even though it was difficult to speak, he had to do so for the sake of his son.
Chhu Guangshan can use traps to catch monsters and even catch them alive, which is amazing.
“Tell me, if anything happens, as long as I can do it, I'll take care of it!”
One day, Liu Ruhua gave Jiang Yun some beef and vegetables and asked her to take them back and cook them for her children.
The child also tilted his head and looked at the ink painting curiously with a pair of dark eyes.
“Nothing, nothing.”
Jiang Yun's home is very simple, with two or three rooms, with mottled walls. Some of the tables and chairs are also very old, with arms and legs missing.
Mo Hua took out a little cloth tiger and gave it to him. The child said angrily, "Thank you, brother~" and then held the little tiger in his arms without letting go, shouting excitedly.
Chu Guangshan sighed, looking self-deprecating.
“How to cover it up?” Mo Hua asked.
Chu Guangshan hesitated for a moment.
Zhou'er is the son of Chu Guangshan and Jiang Yun, the child whom Mo Hua met just now.
Once a casual cultivator's family encounters something unexpected, the family situation will immediately be ruined. At that time, even making a living will be a problem, let alone cultivating Taoism and seeking immortality.
The life of casual cultivators is far more fragile than imagined, but despite this, everyone is still trying to live.
Jiang Yun was a little embarrassed, "My family is a little shabby..."
Mo Hua said goodbye to him with a smile.
Chu Guangshan sent the ink paintings out of the house and then to the street. When he saw the sign of "Liu Ji Restaurant" in front of him, he stopped, but his eyes kept sending the ink paintings home.
