In the Great World of Martial Arts, You Use the Tao of Talisman To Rule the Ages? Chapter 7

Chapter 7 Alternative Hunting

 A drop of meat fat fell into the fire, causing a burst of smoke.

 The rabbit roasted on the stove gradually turned golden.

 My stomach started growling again.

Chen Lin ignored it and didn't even turn his head. Instead, he looked at the bark charm with an intoxicated face and a satisfied smile.

  The mana in the body can be used to draw eight more runes.

 Just used to draw another talisman—

 Zombie wood slow-moving talisman, seven-stroke talisman.

 A spell that makes one's movements stiff and sluggish.

It is of little use to monks, but when used on mortals, it is like being shackled instantly. Unless the spell fails, there is no way to break free.

 Similarly, since humans can use it, animals can also use it!

There is no bow and knife now, so catching prey is a difficult problem. With this talisman, you will not be afraid of futility.

 “Okay, okay…all in one go!”

Changing to a new piece of tree bark, Chen Lin inserted his right index finger into the pot again, hung it with rabbit blood and continued painting.

 The process is equally smooth without any errors.

 The golden light is restrained and the magic power is hidden.

 After more than ten breaths.

Zombie Wood Slower Talisman is officially released.

  There is only a little bit of mana left in his body, but it can still maintain his body's temperature and keep him from freezing.

Chen Lin washed the rabbit blood off his index finger with water, and suddenly smelled a strong aroma of oil, and then realized that the roasted rabbit on the shelf was already cooked...

 Hurry and remove it from the flames.

 The body, which has not tasted meat for a long time, begins to secrete a large amount of saliva, paving the way for the next big meal.

 Tear off the juicy and tender rabbit meat roasted until golden brown in one bite. There is a layer of hot fat hidden under the crispy skin, and the aroma of firewood lingers just right between your teeth...

 A full sense of happiness rises from the bottom of my heart!

 The body like dry firewood is like seeing rain and dew, bit by bit, the vitality hidden deep in the depths is blooming.

 Each bite is a comfort to the body and mind.

Chen Lin chewed slowly, and with the characteristics of a monk, he felt that the energy in his body was being replenished.

 He took action, cut off a small part, and transported the "Flaming Wood Sutra".

 Just a few breaths.

 It's like opening a floodgate to release water.

 This bit of essence quickly blends with the aura of heaven and earth entering the body from the outside world, turning into wisps of fire mana, traveling in the meridians, and causing heat to rise throughout the body.

“The new mana just extracted can probably draw two runes.”

“My total mana now reaches twenty runes.”

“As long as we hunt a big deal next, it will be as easy as eating and drinking to surpass the body of the immortal world…”

 Chen Lin sucked the bones of the rabbit and sucked out the marrow inside. The remaining vitality was used to replenish the body, not all to refine the magic power.

 A moment later.

 The rabbit went into its belly with all the meat and bones and everything that was edible.

 The stomach is still unsatisfied and wishes for more food.

Chen Lin could only chirp, stand up, pick up the two talismans he had just drawn, and prepare to go hunting.

 Bring the hatchet, your only sharp weapon.

 Then I went to my aunt's house next door to borrow a basket to carry the prey.

 Knocking on the door, I found that my aunt was not at home.

 Only a ten-year-old skinny boy came to open the door, his nickname was "Carrot".

After hearing Chen Lin's intention, Xiao Luobo brought the best backpack at home, the kind with a bamboo cover on the top, and shouted that he wanted to go hunting in the snowy mountains with him.

　　Then I became honest after suffering a brain breakdown from Chen Lin.

“You stay at home well. If something happens in the mountains, I won't take care of you. When I catch something in the mountains, I can give you two bites of meat when I come back..."

 Tussle the little carrot's hair.

Chen Lin waved goodbye to him and walked up the mountain alone.

 It was almost noon, when the sun was supposed to be at its strongest.

 But a gray cloud came from the sky, and the light was not as bright as in the morning.

Turning our backs to the howling cold wind, we once again stepped into Xiaojin Mountain.

The area around the mountain pass has long been cleared away by hunters from all walks of life, and there will be no decent prey at all.

 This place is only suitable for cutting firewood.

 So Chen Lin didn't stop for a step and entered the mountain from another way.

 The twelfth lunar month is the severe winter.

 The sun is shining near the mountain pass, so the snow is only up to the ankles.

But after entering the mountain, the snow suddenly thickened and quickly piled up to the calf level, and it would get deeper in the future. The temperature dropped sharply.

It is no exaggeration to exhale and turn into ice.

Chen Lin walked in the vast snow, relying on the memory of the past and walking along a snow path.

If other hunters hunt in this situation, they can only rely on experience to search for the traces and footprints left by various animals in the snow, and then follow them all the way.

 Even if everything goes well, the prey is found.

 Often also requires a chase in waist-deep snow.

 There are not that many sharp archers in the world.

 There are too few people who can easily kill prey from dozens of meters away.

Especially in the snowy mountains in the cold winter, the joints are so frozen that it is difficult for ordinary people to draw the bow.

 Except for traps.

More hunters in the snowy mountains can actually only rely on human endurance advantages to pursue their prey until their physical strength collapses and they can no longer run.

Sometimes, a roe deer weighing several dozen kilograms needs to be outflanked by several people, and the chase lasts for nearly a whole day... Once the roe deer is accidentally injured or lost in the middle, it will be difficult to end well.

The snow-capped mountains may seem magnificent, but they are like a ruthless cold knife that can stab into people's bones at any time!

 Chen Lin did not dare to go too deep.

Although he has successfully entered Taoism, he is only a young monk, not to mention that he only masters talismans and only has two talismans on his body. He may not be able to withstand any extreme situation.

 “Looking for someone to explore, Ji!”

 Take out the bark charm and evoke the runes on it.

 There is brilliance flowing in the blood pattern, and the spiritual power contained in it is slowly released...

 Invisible to ordinary people.

Chen Lin, however, could feel the spiritual power of the spell spreading around. Anyone who could breathe would absorb the spiritual power, and then he could follow the clues formed by the spiritual power to find it.

 The first one to be found was himself...

 As he breathed, the surrounding spiritual energy was sucked into his body, forming a clear link from the spell to his nasal cavity.

 “Ignore this!”

“The effectiveness of this charm can last for about two-quarters of an hour. If it is not used for a long time, the charm will completely disappear in three or four hours, and all spirituality will be lost.”

“So you can only draw the spell before going up the mountain, and you cannot store it in advance.”

“Rabbit blood and tree bark are not spiritual enough.”

“Ordinary spells will not lose any of their effectiveness if left for a month... You will still have to find better spell materials in the future, or simply make them yourself.”

Chen Lin pondered his thoughts and walked casually in the snow.

 There is no need to pay attention to animal trails like other hunters.

With the help of the person-finding and air-finding talisman, he can sense most living creatures within a radius of a hundred feet.

Threads of spiritual power intertwined like a spider web, centering on the charm he placed on his chest, radiating out in all directions.

These threads are something only he can see.

“This thread is as thick as a hair, and it's connected to the tree… This thread is almost as thick as a chopstick, and it's actually connected to the same tree?”

Chen Lin raised his head and squinted his eyes to look at the tree.

The other end of the hair thread seems to be just connected to a tree burr, tightly attached to the straight tree trunk, and it cannot be seen that it is a living thing.

 But since there are spiritual threads connecting it, it means that the thing is breathing and must be a living thing!

 Watching it closely for more than ten breaths, I trembled slightly.

Chen Lin finally saw the true face of that "bumpy man".

 Eight-eyed Snow Spider!

It is completely white and extremely poisonous, and ordinary people will die if they come into contact with it.

But the venom can be used as a medicine, and it can be sold alive for fifty bucks at the mountain product market in the county town.

 The price/performance ratio is very low.

“This will come after I draw a poison-avoiding charm later.”

 Chen Lin took a step back.

As for the other thread connected to the tree, he also figured out what it was.

“The white jade squirrel is probably spending the winter in a tree hole. It will moult before winter, and its roots are as white as snow. At this time, the value of its fur is quite high. A hole with a hole is worth forty yuan, and a hole without a hole is worth eighty yuan..."

The squirrel's tree hole was extremely hidden. If it weren't for the talisman that directly pointed out the direction, he wouldn't have been able to tell that there was a large sum of eighty yuan hidden above his head.

“Unfortunately, I don't have a bow and bullet, the tree is too tall and straight, and there is a poisonous spider guarding it.”

 “Fortunately I have other options…”

 Chen Lin took a deep breath.

Turn around in the snow, the surroundings are silent and silent, as if all life is extinct. Ordinary people don't know where to look for prey.

 But when he opened his eyes, he clearly saw dense spiritual power threads connecting everywhere, no less than a hundred!

These,

 They are all his prey!
