Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, it was already the middle of June.
In the summer night, the golden moon hung high in the sky, illuminating the green mountains.
The wind blew, and the leaves and moonlight floated together. The cicadas chirped and frogs drummed together. Occasionally, there would be a wolf howl, coming from afar and echoing on the green mountains.
At a riverbank, the stream washed out a white smooth rock. Beside the riverbank, a battle was going on.
A wild boar was covered in deep wounds. It kicked with its four legs and charged at Fang Yuan again. Blood spurted from its wounds, leaving a bright red mark.
Fang Yuan did not panic at all as he fought.
This wild boar was already seriously injured and on the verge of death, but it was precisely this state that made wild beasts the most dangerous. They would burst forth with the last light of their lives, becoming even crazier and more difficult to deal with. If one was not careful, they would tumble and have their intestines crushed by their fangs.
Fang Yuan's expression was calm, and his dark eyes flashed with a cold light under the moonlight.
He had five hundred years of experience. On one hand, he was immersed in the battle, and on the other hand, a part of his mind was out of the battle, constantly vigilant of his surroundings.
There were several times when he was hunting wild boars, and other creatures came to disturb him. Once, it was a wild boar, a few times it was a wild wolf, and even a stray tiger.
As time passed, the wild boar's attack finally slowed down.
Fang Yuan's eyes lit up. He suddenly took a few steps and suddenly approached the wild boar. Then, he lowered his body and lifted the wild boar.
"Ha!"
Fang Yuan shouted, his face flushed red. He used his hands to lift the wild boar high up.
The wild boar struggled weakly.
Fang Yuan's body swayed, and he used all his strength to throw the wild boar.
With a muffled bang, the wild boar was smashed into a huge rock on the riverbank. It howled miserably, accompanied by the crisp sound of ribs breaking.
It fell from the huge rock, and hot blood gushed out from its ears, nose, and mouth.
It struggled a few more times, and finally stopped breathing.
The surroundings returned to calm.
The river gurgled, carrying the scarlet pig's blood into the distance.
"With my current strength, I can already carry a pig! Let's try the boulder in the tunnel tonight. "Fang Yuan stood in the same spot, panting heavily. There was a hint of excitement in his eyes.
These days, he had been using the White Boar Gu to reflect his body and increase his strength. He could clearly feel that his strength was getting stronger and stronger.
In the past, he could only use the Crescent Blade to fight the wild boar. But now, he could even carry the wild boar. His strength had grown by leaps and bounds.
Of course, the White Boar Gu would not increase Fang Yuan's strength limitlessly, its limit was the strength of one boar. At this limit, he could no longer use the White Boar Gu to increase his strength.
"I can carry a wild boar now, but that doesn't mean I can wrestle with a pig. It was just like how a strong man could carry another strong man, but there might not be a difference in strength between the two men. My strength can still continue to grow. "
After feeding all the boar meat to the White Boar Gu, Fang Yuan used his knife to remove the boar's teeth. Finally, he cut up the already damaged skin of the wild boar before going to the secret cave in the rock crack.
As for the boar's corpse, he did not need to deal with it. In the summer night, wild beasts roamed about frequently. Not long later, some wild beasts would smell the blood and rush over to clear the area for Fang Yuan.
Taking a step back, even if someone found out, it was not a problem. The wounds on the boar's body were 'processed' by Fang Yuan with his knife, and there were no traces of the Crescent Blade attack.
Returning to the secret cave shrouded in scarlet light, Fang Yuan threw the two wild boar teeth to a corner.
The wild boar teeth collided with each other, creating a crisp sound.
In this corner, there was already a small pile of wild boar teeth. These were the results of Fang Yuan's recent hunting.
Fang Yuan went straight into the tunnel, once again arriving at the bottom of the tunnel.
Walking in the tunnel, the sound of his footsteps echoed in the tunnel. His vision was filled with a dim red light.
Nothing had changed, the huge rock was still there, quietly lying in front of him. As for the hole where he dug out the Earth Treasury Flower, it had already been filled up by Fang Yuan.
Drink.
Fang Yuan came to the front of the huge rock, raising both his hands and pushing with all his might.
However, his face swelled up, and he used all his strength, but the huge rock did not move an inch.
"Right now, if I use all my strength, I can barely lift a wild boar. But this huge rock is at least the weight of five or six wild boars. It's not strange that I can't push it. The Flower Wine Monk's inheritance of strength is not that easy! "Fang Yuan's eyes flashed, calculating in his heart.
He was not discouraged, and went out of the tunnel, returning to the secret room above.
Taking out the bamboo tube leaning against the wall, Fang Yuan sat cross-legged on the floor, opened the lid of the bamboo tube, and poured out the animal skin map and bamboo paper.
He opened up the animal skin map, and began to memorize it. From time to time, he would use his finger to draw shallow marks on the ground, to help him memorize.
From the day he obtained this map, he had been doing this.
Fang Yuan did not have a storage Gu, and could not carry the animal skin map with him. It would be very inconvenient to carry a bamboo tube on his back in battle. Thus, Fang Yuan put in a lot of effort, preparing to memorize the animal skin map in his mind.
Although some things are troublesome, it is best to do it. In a person's life, those who are afraid of trouble and do not actively solve it will often end up in a troublesome situation. This logic, Fang Yuan understood in his previous life.
"When I was young, my memory was really good. Right now, I have already memorized most of the map in my mind. If I was old, I would probably forget it while memorizing it. Hehehe … of course, if I had a bookworm, I would feed it this animal skin map, and from then on, as long as I do not lose the bookworm, I would always remember this map clearly. "
Fang Yuan had the Liquor worm and the White Boar Gu, and began to covet the bookworm.
The bookworm's value was similar to the Liquor worm and the White Boar Gu. They were all rare Rank one Gu worms, and had a high market price. Moreover, they were always out of stock.
In his previous life, Fang Yuan did not get the Liquor worm or the White Boar Gu, but he unexpectedly got a bookworm. This bookworm continued to advance, and accompanied him for a whole sixty years.
"Forget it, bookworms have always been rare, and I won't be able to get one in a short period of time. Actually, after my rebirth, my current situation is many times better than the same period in my previous life. At this time in my previous life, I was still at Rank one initial stage, while others like Fangzheng, Chicheng, and Mobei had already reached upper stage, leaving me far behind. "Fang Yuan was not the kind of person to waste time on an insignificant problem, and felt relieved after thinking about it.
He was quite satisfied with his current progress.
He was at middle stage, and so were the others. With C grade talent, it was not easy to keep these A grade and B grade talents at the same age. Among them, the Liquor worm played a huge role. Other than that, it was Fang Yuan's rich experience in cultivation that aided them.
There was also another reason, which was him.
He robbed and extorted all his classmates, and under the guidance of their elders, these people worked hard to train their martial arts. Thus, unknowingly, it took away their energy, and reduced the time they had to nurture their aperture walls. This caused their cultivation in this life to be slightly weaker than in Fang Yuan's previous life.
But even so, they were not far from upper stage.
The early stage of a Gu Master's cultivation was relatively easy, and results could be seen in a short period of time. Especially Guyue Fangzheng, Guyue Mo Chen, and Guyue Cheng, their cultivation was already showing signs of surpassing Fang Yuan.
As they continued to cultivate, these three, be it their talent, or the strong support behind them, had already started to show an obvious advantage. Fang Yuan used the Liquor worm to create a difficult lead, but now it was almost non-existent.
Of course, this was also because he had been hunting recently, using the White Boar Gu to increase his strength, and diverting a lot of his energy and time.
"According to this estimation, not long after, someone will advance to upper stage first. The first upper stage person will get thirty Yuan stones as a reward. But I don't intend to fight for this reward. "Fang Yuan had already made his decision.
If he temporarily abandoned the White Boar Gu, and focused on advancing to upper stage, he might have a chance of winning. But this was not what Fang Yuan wanted. Thirty Yuan stones might be good, but he did not lack Yuan stones.
The main reason was that he needed to keep a low profile, and hide himself. Only by reducing the attention of others, could he safely inherit the Flower Wine Monk's strength inheritance.
This was his main goal.
"The academy's various rewards are just to motivate the students to train harder, and is also a part of the clan system. It's not wise to be entangled in such petty gains. "
Fang Yuan retracted his thoughts, and looked at the beast skin map again.
The beast skin map had two sides, the front side recorded the day, and the back side recorded the night situation. On it, all sorts of colored lines crisscrossed.
These lines, whether they were straight lines or curved lines, all had a special meaning. Only Old Man Wang knew, but he was already dead. But even if he was alive, and forced to explain, he might not be able to speak the truth.
These days, Fang Yuan relied on his own knowledge and experience, and compared it to the bamboo paper, and almost succeeded in deciphering everything.
"The red cross should represent danger, a forbidden area. This area with the red cross is faintly surrounded by wild boars, it should be a King Boar. With my current strength, meeting a King Boar would mean death. Hmph! "
Fang Yuan thought of Old Man Wang, and could not help but snort coldly.
The red cross in this area was not on the bamboo paper. If Fang Yuan really believed this bamboo paper, he would probably die under the fangs of King Boar one day. This Old Man Wang was really shrewd. He wanted to avenge his son, but did not do it himself, and wanted to borrow the strength of King Boar. In this way, if he killed Fang Yuan, he could still stay out of it.
"But what does the red circle in these three places represent?" Fang Yuan was puzzled.
This was the last point of doubt on the beast skin map.
The three red circles were marked in three very remote places, and at the same time, they were very far away from each other, and there were not many beasts in the surroundings. It was considered a relatively safe place in the wilderness.
"The red cross represents the forbidden area, so what does the red circle represent?" Fang Yuan fell into deep thought again. "Usually, red is the most eye-catching. Old Man Wang marked these three places with red circles, which means that these three places are very important to him. It is a pity that these three places are too far away, or else I would know it myself. "
