Ten thousand I am across the heavens

Through these days of observation, Lan Nuo has gradually figured out the living habits of the wild boars living in this area. The wild boars will gather together to sleep at night, and will scatter to look for food during the day.

If so many large wild beasts gather in one area, they will eat up all the surrounding plants and animals, so they must disperse when foraging. This foraging period is the best opportunity to provoke the Wild Boar King.

The wild boar king is black all over, and its body is more than twice the size of an ordinary wild boar. Its two fangs are extremely sharp, and it runs like a tank. Lan Nuo has observed this wild boar fighting from a distance several times. They were all when fighting for a mate. The angry wild boar king would rush forward and could knock an adult male wild boar weighing hundreds of pounds more than ten meters away.

This should not be the full strength of the Wild Boar King. The wild boar that was knocked away did not die. It was obvious that he held back. The Wild Boar King needed ordinary wild boars to help him defend his territory, so he would not kill members of the tribe.

Lan Nuo was sure that this wild boar was far superior to humans in both speed and strength. If no arrangements were made in advance, even if he was alone, it would be difficult to fight against this creature with powerful brute force and thick skin.

If he unlocked the genetic lock and fought desperately, he might be able to win, but he would inevitably get hurt. If he wanted to break the defense, he would have to stimulate the strength potential of his muscles, which would inevitably cause muscle strain after the battle, and in serious cases, he might even be paralyzed. Lan Nuo naturally did not intend to fight this guy desperately, but climbed on the treetop, rolled up the blowpipe, and blew it at the wild boar king from a distance.

With precise control, the blowpipe went straight to the boar king's eyes. However, before it hit the boar king, he noticed it and closed his eyes reflexively.

The thick eyelids blocked the blowpipe, but the wild herbal juice on the arrow made the wild boar king itch. Lan Nuo actually wanted to poison, but unfortunately he didn't know much about the plants and animals in this world, and he couldn't make any strong poison for the time being. He could only make this potion that could make most creatures allergic.

The wild boar king's eyelids swelled up quickly. When he saw the "monkey" that attacked him, he immediately roared angrily and rushed over. The wild boar king did not feel the dangerous aura from the attacker on the tree. Lan Nuo was not a Gu Master, and in the wild boar king's simple mind, ordinary humans were no threat to him and were food that could be hunted. Facing the provocation of the prey, the wild boar king rushed over without hesitation.

Lan Nuo grabbed the bladder of an unknown animal from his pocket, which was filled with unknown herbs. As the wild boar king approached, he threw the bladder out, hitting the pig's nose, which immediately exploded with an extremely unpleasant smell. The wild boar king's keen sense of smell was attacked by this, and he screamed immediately. Although he was not injured, he became even more angry, and rushed towards the tree where Lan Nuo was hiding.

Seeing this, Lan Nuo immediately grabbed a vine and jumped down from the tree. Like a nimble monkey, he grabbed the vine that had been arranged long ago and swung to another tree in the distance.

Looking back, the bucket-thick tree that I was standing on had been uprooted and fell to the ground. The wild boar king was running towards me. Its strength was definitely not inferior to that of a tractor. Its speed was also much faster than that of a human.

But Lan Nuo had already prepared vines on the surrounding trees, and with the help of gravity, his movement speed was faster than that of the wild boar king. The angry wild boar king did not even consider summoning his tribe when facing the enemy that posed no threat. He chased the monkey all the way to the edge of his territory. At this time, the wild boar king was still unaware of the danger. He followed the path of the hateful monkey and chased after it.

Seeing Lan Nuo stopped on a thick tree, the wild boar king with red eyes suddenly accelerated. The tree was very thick, and it would be difficult to break it if he didn't run at full speed.

Lan Nuo stayed on the tree, holding a vine in his hand, ready to run away at any time. However, just when the wild boar king was about to hit the tree, his feet suddenly stepped on empty air. Under the fallen leaves on the ground, there was a trap that was completely beyond his expectations. The huge body lost the support of the ground and immediately fell towards the bottom of the trap.

When Lan Nuo was digging the trap, he had already taken into account the extraordinary creatures in this world. They might have very strong vitality, so he would rather spend more time and use the well-digging method in the countryside to dig the trap to a depth of more than ten meters, rather than use ordinary traps to deal with them.

This immediately posed a fatal threat to the wild boar below. The huge body fell from a height of more than ten meters. The bottom of the trap was full of sharp bamboos. The falling wild boar king screamed and was pierced by the bamboo. One of the hard bamboos even penetrated its body, but its strong vitality still kept it alive. It struggled furiously at the bottom of the pit. If this was a four or five meter pit, such a struggle combined with brute force might really allow it to struggle out.

However, this trap was dug to such a depth after being reinforced using the method of mining and well digging. If you struggle frantically and desperately, not only will you not be able to escape from the trap, but it is also possible that the wooden frame supporting the trap structure will be destroyed, causing the entire trap to collapse. In that case, not only will you not be able to escape, but you will be buried alive more than ten meters underground. In that case, there will be no possibility of survival at all.

Lan Nuo had expected that the Wild Boar King was not dead, so he took this opportunity to pull the mechanism beside him. The taut bamboos suddenly released the elastic potential energy contained in them and shot javelins to the bottom of the well. Although these javelins only pierced the skin of the Wild Boar King, it was enough, because the mechanism pushed a boulder weighing several tons on the hillside, causing it to roll down along the road dug on the hillside. The end of the road happened to be the entrance to the trap.

If the wild boar king survived the fall from a height of more than ten meters, the several-ton rock would hit the bamboos that were piercing his body, leaving him with no chance of survival.

Lan Nuo had greatly overestimated the physical strength of the animals in this world. If it were a creature evolved on Earth, it would be smashed into a pancake if it were hit by an extremely heavy rock falling from a height of more than ten meters.

The body of the pig king was indeed stronger than that of ordinary creatures. But he did not expect that he could withstand such damage. He only heard a desperate scream. Finally, there was no movement at the bottom of the well. The sun shone through the well mouth to the bottom, allowing Lan Nuo to see the large pools of blood flowing out from the bottom of the well.

The blood did not splatter with radioactivity, which meant that the wild boar king's body was not smashed into pulp under such heavy pressure. Although this was expected, it still made Lan Nuo look solemn. The physical fitness of the powerful creatures in this world is indeed very strong. The body strength of a mere beast king is almost as strong as steel, and the more powerful thousand beast kings or even ten thousand beast kings may not be able to be dealt with by traps, at least traps of this size cannot deal with them.

Lan Nuo stayed at the mouth of the well and did not rush down. Since the wild boar below was not smashed into a ball of rotten meat, it might still be able to survive. Lan Nuo had no means to determine whether the other party was alive or dead, so he decided to wait quietly at the entrance of the trap until the wild boar king was completely dead.

Lan Nuo did not wait too long. In fact, the wild boar king was already dead when the boar fell. After waiting for a while, Lan Nuo did not find any signs of survival of the wild boar, but he waited for a small insect to crawl out from the bottom of the well. The insect emitted a faint light, which was much brighter than a firefly, and was slowly crawling along the wellhead.

Seeing this, Lan Nuo quickly stood on the path where the insect was crawling, prepared a container, and caught the insect when it was about to crawl out of the trap after spending half a day. This thing is very likely the poisonous insect mentioned by the villagers before, and it should be a very precious thing.

From the previous conversations with the villagers, Lan Nuo could roughly infer that as long as a first-level poisonous insect was handed in every year, a poison master would come to the village to fertilize the fields. It seemed that the effect was not only to fertilize the fields, but also to prevent and control various diseases and pests, as well as weeds.

If we calculate the value of this fertilizer to the entire village, we can estimate the value of an ordinary first-level Gu worm in this world. It is probably worth tens of thousands of kilograms of food. This is definitely a huge asset.

No matter what kind of poisonous insect this little bug is, it must be preserved for now. In the future, this thing may become my first pot of gold.

The Gu worm itself is not dangerous. According to the villagers' previous descriptions and actions, although these strange little insects can give people or other animals magical powers, they are very fragile. Therefore, even a small bamboo jar can trap such a small insect.

As for the wild boar king, Lan Nuo climbed to the bottom of the well only after making sure that the guy was dead. He used a knife to cut off the flesh and fangs that he could take away, which served as an opportunity for him to sneak into the village.

You need an identity no matter where you go, and hunter is indeed an identity that makes it easier to blend into the village.

After coming into contact with the Gu worm, Lan Nuo had some guesses about where this world was. This might very well be the world of Gu Zhenren. If his guess was correct, the top priority now was to contact the human world, and then find an environment containing the Hope Gu, to try to awaken his own void.

The empty cavity is probably equivalent to the qi sea and dantian in this world, which is used to store the true essence that drives the poisonous insect. If there is no empty cavity, the poisonous insect cannot be used.

He currently has no way of telling what the bug in his hand is. Only by coming into contact with the human forces of this world can he find out what the bug in his hand is from the information stored there.

After wandering around outside the village for so many days, Lan Nuo finally had some understanding of the village. After preparing to contact the humans in this world, he brought the pork, fur and fangs he had obtained before and came to the village to sell them.

Of course, these things are not sold to the villagers. There is a Gu Master living in the village, who is a resident Gu Master sent by a nearby family to manage the villagers. Only those families can afford these things.

From the news that Lan Nuo overheard before, he learned that the nearby family was the Bai family, and the village's Gu Master was called Bai Shiqian. His daily job was to supervise the villagers to collect various herbs and Gu insects. In fact, more than a dozen villages around were under his management, and all the herbs, materials, and Gu insects he harvested had to be handed over to the family and redistributed within the family through contribution or purchase.

The skin and fangs of the King of Beasts are already considered high-end materials, and their prices can be settled with Yuanshi. Yuanshi is a resource that Gu Masters often consume during their cultivation, and is often used as currency.

Normally, an average person might only spend one or two Yuanshi per month, but according to his estimation, the fur and fangs he had on hand could be sold for at least fifty to eighty Yuanshi, which was not a small amount. Even if an ordinary hunter had superb skills in hunting wild animals, he might not earn this much in a whole year.

When Lan Nuo entered the village carrying a large amount of beast materials, a large number of villagers came to watch. In these villages where only ordinary people lived, it was rare to see the corpse of the King of Beasts. Many people came to watch the excitement. The news spread quickly.

Today is the day when we officially go to search for this small village. After hearing the news, we came to the market at the entrance of the village and saw pig skins and fangs on the stalls.

"It's the Lord Gu Master!" The villagers exclaimed and stepped back, making way for this guy. In this world, the status gap between ordinary people and Gu Masters is huge, and Gu Masters don't need to make any compensation for killing a few people.

Bai Shiqian was already used to this and didn't care about the villagers' actions. He squatted down to check the fangs and furs on the stall, nodded and said, "Very fresh prey, it is indeed a king of beasts, but it's a pity that there are too many holes in the fur, so the value may be greatly reduced."

Lan Nuo knew that the other party was trying to lower the price, but after gathering intelligence over the past few days, he had already figured out the true value of this thing and the other party's psychological bottom line. So after a simple bargaining, Lan Nuo packed the body and sold it for 60 Yuanshi.

Bai Shiqian was quite satisfied with the harvest this time. After paying the Yuanshi, he smiled and said, "It is not easy to hunt down the King of Beasts even with traps. You are a very good hunter. If you have similar prey in the future, you can come to me to trade." Bringing back more precious materials to the family would obviously enhance the status of his family.

Lan Nuo nodded and said, "No problem, there will be more prey in the future, but... I have a favor to ask."
