Great Xuanwu Sheng Chapter 117

Chapter 117 Continuation

"coming."

Chen Mu's face was calm and his body remained motionless, but his eyes were fixed forward at first, and then moved quickly to the left.

 Almost the next moment.

Accompanied by a fierce and vicious wind, a giant white wolf that was silvery white in color and almost reached a person's chest suddenly appeared. It did not rush from the ground, but from top to bottom, from an ancient tree on Chen Mu's left. He scurried down from the tree and pounced directly on Xu Hongyu, who was standing on Chen Mu's left hand side, ferociously and viciously.

Xu Hongyu stood there with a calm face. She shook the soft sword in her hand. The sword trembled and a sword flower appeared, setting off a rain-like curtain of light in the air to meet the falling white wolf demon.

The white wolf demon raised his right limb, and the front end suddenly flashed with thick and silvery sharp claws. He swung down fiercely and collided with the sword curtain swung by Xu Hongyu. In an instant, sparks flew everywhere, and it burst out like swords colliding. the sound of.

 The sword curtain exploded.

The entire right limb of the white wolf demon was shaken. It seemed that it could not bear the power. It flew back in the air and fell a foot away. Xu Hongyu took two steps back, retracted the soft sword in his hand and tilted it. Sweeping back, he removed the remaining force and opened a ravine and crack on the ground.

Immediately afterwards, Xu Hongyu waved a beam of sword light again, and took the initiative to attack and fight with the white wolf demon.

Xiao He held the soft sword tightly, but did not rush forward. She saw that the white wolf demon was not very strong, and Xu Hongyu could handle it. It was also a suitable opponent for Xu Hongyu to use to hone his sword skills.

A warrior's martial arts practice, whether it is tempering the body or practicing skills, is often not something that can be achieved behind closed doors. Xu Hongyu has reached the perfection of Yijin. Fighting against opponents of equal strength can not only activate his own energy and blood, but also sharpen his sword skills and sword skills. The fact that she was able to move from Yi Jin Dacheng to Yi Jin Perfection so quickly is inseparable from the fact that she spent the entire 'Great Cold' hunting monsters outside.

 Thinking of this.

Xiao He couldn't help but steal a glance at Chen Mu, his eyes a little strange.

Only Chen Mu... In her impression, it seemed that he was either working in the City Guards Department or practicing on his own behind closed doors. In this case, he could enter the realm like a **** and even comprehend the artistic conception. The gap between people is really incalculable. .

Chen Mu was standing aside with his hands behind his hands, watching Xu Hongyu's battle with the White Wolf Demon with calm eyes. Compared with the previous encounter with the remnants of the Heavenly Corpse Sect, Xu Hongyu showed his strength even more this time. The two sword movements were intertwined, almost There are no flaws. Although the white wolf demon is stronger than Xu Hongyu in terms of speed and strength, it is always suppressed and beaten by Xu Hongyu.

One man and one wolf fought fiercely for more than ten rounds.

A glimmer of light flashed in Xu Hongyu's cold eyes. During the fierce fight, the sword's momentum changed, and the waving curtain turned into a thin rain, which instantly passed between the white wolf demon's sharp claws. Hit his eye pupil.

 “Ouch!!”

The white wolf demon let out a painful roar, and a blood splash suddenly appeared on the right eyeball.

After receiving this blow, the mania in its remaining left eye subsided a lot. The eyes looking at Xu Hongyu revealed human fear and hatred, and then it suddenly swung out a claw and tore Xu Hongyu's eyes open. Behind the sword curtain, he twisted his body and ran towards the depths of the jungle.

 He ran as fast as the wind and escaped Xu Hongyu's attack range in an instant.

Xu Hongyu let out a breath of turbid air and immediately raised her sword to chase after him. However, his speed was not as fast as the white wolf demon. He chased at full speed in the dense forest, but he could still only see its figure fleeing further and further away.

But just when he was about to lose track of him, a figure quietly passed by from above, came directly above the white wolf demon, and descended in an arc.

　　Boom! !

Chen Mu did not draw his sword, but raised his fist in the air with a dull look. His fist suddenly came down, hitting the white wolf demon in the head. It hit the huge wolf at once, and the whole head suddenly fell down, falling upside down. Generally, it fell into the soil with a bang, and the running torso was lifted straight up, as if it was wedged directly into the ground.

 Xiao He silently covered his eyes with his two small hands.

　　It's too cruel.

You can defeat the white wolf demon with just your physical strength...How can the young lady endure it in the future?

 Shuashuashua!

The head of the white wolf demon fell into the ground, and its limbs were straightened, but it was not dead. It quickly started moving again, and its limbs and claws were scratching and waving in the air. It looked very funny. Finally, it pulled out its head, but it seemed that it was still in a state of insanity. In a state of confusion, he neither knew how to escape nor what to do. He just stood there shaking his head and shaking the dirt off his fur.

Xu Hongyu's figure was approaching at this time. She ducked quietly, and a sliding shovel passed under the white wolf demon's head. The soft sword in her hand hit the white wolf demon's throat straight, and a trace of blood spread silently.

The white wolf demon's huge body froze briefly, then shook twice, and finally fell down.

Whoosh.

Xu Hongyu stood up with her sword put away, and went straight to the body of the white wolf demon. She swung her sword skillfully and pierced his chest. The tip of the sword was lifted slightly, and her right hand sank into it. When she took it back, it was stained red with blood. On the tip of his plain finger, a prism-shaped blood-colored object about the size of a baby's finger appeared.

"Give."

Xu Hongyusu raised her hand, and the blood-colored crystal flew towards Chen Mu.

 Chen Mu reached out his hand and caught it, and looked at it intently: "Is this the monster's blood essence..."

Blood Essence is the most essential part of a monster's energy and blood. Generally, only second-level monsters occasionally have it. Most of them have it after third-level monsters. Warriors with meat training and above can directly swallow it and refine it, which can nourish themselves. Qi and blood.

Generally, it can only be eaten directly, because the blood essence disperses very quickly. If it is not peeled off at the first time, it will be quickly dissolved in the monster's blood. Even if it is peeled off at the first time, there is no extremely high-quality cold jade. It cannot be stored and will dissipate between heaven and earth within a period of time.

 This thing should be of no use to me.

Such a thought flashed through Chen Mu's mind, but after all, it was his first contact. He thought for a moment and swallowed it. Soon a warm current swayed from his belly and flowed throughout his body, surrounding his whole body. In this warmth.

But after a while, until the warmth faded, the qi and blood in his body did not become more vigorous. It was still at the original level. It only slightly replenished some of the lost energy, making the qi and blood more active. .

 He shook his head slightly in his heart.

Chen Mu was not surprised by this either.

His limits in the three realms of skin grinding, meat training, and muscle reshaping have reached the realm of tigers and leopards thundering, and muscles and muscles roaring together. In terms of qi and blood, he has already reached the extreme limit that can be tolerated at present, which is far beyond ordinary people. Only people like Xu Hongyu and Xiao He, whose qi and blood have not been condensed to the limit of a realm, can take this blood essence to slightly increase their qi and blood, making the practice of body tempering faster and making it easier to reach higher realms. a little.

Xu Hongyu quickly disposed of the body of the white wolf demon. The speed and skill of the movements made Chen Mu a little amazed. In an instant, he processed everything neatly and used a whole piece of the white wolf demon's leather to beat it into a big one. The baggage, all the wolf bones, wolf claws and other items were packed one by one.

Then she raised her hand and carried the burden, which was bigger than her, on her back. She looked at Chen Mu and said:

 “Okay, you can go back and deliver the errands.”

 Chen Mu's mouth trembled slightly, feeling that Xu Hongyu's appearance at this time was quite funny, but Xu Hongyu seemed not to notice it, and turned around as usual and walked back.

Watching Xu Hongyu's figure walking further and further away, Chen Mu couldn't help but shake his head and followed him.

Xiaohe covered her mouth and snickered, but did not dare to say anything. She followed quietly beside them. The few people walked all the way, and soon they were out of the forest. The blazing sunlight was finally no longer blocked by the leaves of the dense forest and fell on the three of them.

 “How much merit does a white-level mission cost?”

Chen Mu walked next to Xu Hongyu and asked about the meritorious service of the Demon Slayer Division.

“The mission itself is a hundred merit points, and then it depends on the monster that is captured. For the white wolf monster, an additional five hundred merit points should be recorded.”

Xu Hongyu said after thinking for a while.

Chen Mu looked thoughtful. He had learned about it before. In exchange for bone forging pills from the Demon Slaying Division, one portion of twenty thousand meritorious deeds is about thirty pills, which can be used for three months. Each Demon Slaying Division guard Exchange up to three times.

 This is actually based on the past regulations of the Daxuan court.

Compared with Yi Jin, the threshold of bone forging is not as difficult as Yi Jin. The biggest problem for warriors here is often that they are over thirty years old, and the activity of Qi and blood is gradually not as active as when they were young. This is the threshold for bone forging. obstacle.

If you exchange for the Bone Forging Pill three times and fail to pass through it three times, then it will probably be the time when your Qi and blood are declining, and there will be no chance to join the Bone Forging Pill again. There is no point in exchanging more, but it is a waste of resources.

If you get 600 merit points for hunting a white wolf demon,

 Twenty thousand meritorious deeds,

  Slightly more.

Monsters like the White Wolf Demon need to be hunted and killed more than thirty times, which is thirty missions. Judging from the fact that this process takes about six or seven days, it will take more than half a year for a Yijin Perfect White-clothed Guard like Xu Hongyu to complete the task. The Demon Slayer Division received a Bone Forging Pill in exchange, and had to ensure that every mission could be completed without any accidents.

Of course, if you can encounter that kind, the number is relatively large, more than ten or twenty at a time, then you can get a lot of merit at once... But the problem is that if the ordinary white-clothed guards really lead a team and hit more than ten or twenty whites, Wolf demon, let alone hunting, whether he can escape is a question.

But he can solve it easily. There is no difference between one monster and ten monsters like the white wolf monster.

 It was only this time that I found one after tracking it over mountains and ridges.

Unless there is a severe cold or severe drought, which causes a wide range of monsters to fall into a state of frenzy and appear, otherwise it will be difficult to obtain a large number of meritorious deeds in a short period of time. Thinking about it, it is no wonder that during the severe cold last year, various houses in the inner city A large number of people went out of the city to hunt monsters. Even Xu Hongyu, who was still serving as the chief police officer of Nancheng District, temporarily left his post to go out.

 While Chen Mu was thinking about it.

Xiao He, who had been following him all the time, suddenly waved his hand and fanned himself, saying, "Oh, why does it feel so much hotter today than yesterday?"

 Chen Mu came back to his senses, glanced at the distance, and suddenly said quietly: "I'm afraid it's not just a matter of being warmer."

far away,

 A river is flowing.

When they passed here just one day ago, the river was still very wide, two or three feet wide. Now it has shrunk by almost half, revealing a large area of ​​bare river bank.

Xu Hongyu was slightly startled when she saw this scene and said: "Severe drought..."

Chen Mu shook his head and said: "There was a severe cold at the beginning of the year and a severe drought in the middle of the year. This year is a year full of disasters."

 A severe cold followed by a severe drought is undoubtedly a continuation of the disaster years.

A severe drought is coming, and he has experienced it in his memory. Although it will not last as long as a severe cold, it will still last at least half a month or even a month. Every household prepares enough water tanks in advance, and there is no risk of dying of thirst. It's just that the crops being planted will ruin the whole season, and the other thing is that there are a lot of monsters active.

However, because it happens every few years, it is not an extremely serious situation. However, just like during the previous Great Cold, people from all departments, including the Demon Slayer Department, will take action.

 Say it.

Chen Mu glanced at Xiao He again and said, "Look, God is punishing you. It seems that your sins were not light in your previous life."

Xiaohe opened her big innocent eyes, shrank next to Xu Hongyu, and stuck out her tongue.

 “Let's go, go back to Anyu first.”

Xu Hongyu looked away and said solemnly: "The severe drought is coming. There is no need to rush back to the county. Just stay in Anyu. The county will also send more people to Anyu."

A severe drought is coming, and the situation is not big enough to cause the sky to collapse, nor is it small, not to mention that the crops this season will be completely destroyed, and the monsters that appear everywhere will also need more manpower to suppress them. Basically, it will be the same as during the Great Cold at the beginning of the year. In the name of the Demon Slayer Division, personnel from various divisions will be temporarily recruited, including men from various families, and they will also take action.
