Chapter 11
The next morning.

Before dawn, Chen Zheng stood up like a carp, got up to wash up energetically, and then practiced his knife skills in the yard as usual.

After taking Longhu Zhuangli Pill and stepping into the skin training level, his spirit and strength have become more and more powerful, and he seems to have inexhaustible strength every day.

When this full force was exerted, the sharp and cold light danced and danced in his hands, cutting the air fiercely with a knife, and the strong wind swept away, whistling, and almost no water could splash in.

"Asura's Deadly Knife" is already in command, and has a tendency to develop towards perfection.

There is no way, it is so unreasonable to hang up.

After simply warming up, Chen Zheng took the knife, bow and arrow rope, as well as the dry food and water bags prepared in advance, and went directly to the foot of the mountain.

At this time, Wu San, He Daming, and Zhao Wu were already waiting at the foot of the mountain, calling out rather impatiently:

"Morning brother Zheng!"

"morning."

Chen Zheng nodded, and handed another bow and arrow to Zhao Wu, the only one who knew how to do it:
"Take it, the first time you enter the mountain, it's up to you."

Zhao Wu took it excitedly: "Brother Zheng, I will try my best not to let you down!"

Without saying too much, Chen Zheng immediately set off with the three of them, following a vague trail at the foot of the mountain, into the lush and lush forest.

The hilltop where the stronghold is set up belongs to the outskirts of the forest, and as the people go deeper and deeper, the forest becomes denser.

In about half an hour, the surroundings became dense and leafy, the terrain was rugged, cold and damp, and the light became much darker, as if entering evening from daytime.

"Brother Zheng, when I went to the mountains with my father, I taught me that generally you can't stay overnight in the mountains. No matter if you go to the mountains to gain or not, you have to come back before dark. And cloudy, rainy, snowy days, also They don't go into the mountains."

After entering the mountain, Zhao Wu seemed to be a different person, and he opened his mouth to pass on his experience,
"The branches and leaves in the mountain forest are dense, and the light is blocked. If you enter the mountain on a rainy day, the further you go, the darker it will be. If you go deeper, it will be difficult to distinguish the direction, and the danger will rise sharply."

"The situation in the mountains is complicated. Marks must be left along the way, so as not to find the way back. I think there are many marks on this road, which should be left by other hunters before.

Also, from the moment we enter the mountain, we must maintain absolute vigilance, not only to pay attention to the movement of wolves and beasts, but also to be careful of traps that may be left by other hunters in the forest. "

It has to be said that the experienced Zhao Wu helped a lot. Even though Chen Zheng is the leader of this team, he also followed the good advice and kept the experience that the other party said firmly.

Wu San and He Daming didn't dare to be careless at all. While following behind Chen Zheng, they watched their surroundings vigilantly.

"Brother Zheng, I think the area around the forest has been wiped out long ago. If you want to hunt prey, you have to climb over one or two hills before you can get anything."

"However, there is no shortage of things like shrubs and wild fruits in the mountains, and some common herbs are also growing. If you see them, you can't miss them."

Zhao Wu held his bow, walked briskly, and talked incessantly.

Just after he finished speaking, he seemed to have discovered something. When he came to a rock, he squatted down and carefully pulled out a few herbs with white flowers, then turned around and waved:

"Brother Zheng, look. This is White Jade Flower, also known as Hemostatic Grass. This herb is very effective in stopping bleeding from external injuries. It grows a lot here. Let's gather more, and it will definitely be useful in the future."

"Oh?"

Hunting on the mountain is not a small risk, and the hemostatic herb is undoubtedly a life-saving thing. Chen Zheng was moved by the words, and stepped forward to take the hemostatic herb from the other party.

As he was scrutinizing it, the Emperor's Jade Document in his mind was slightly shocked, and the handwriting appeared:

【Hemostatic grass (two years)】

Rank: Fan
Description: A perennial herb that has the effects of astringent, hemostasis, and diuresis, and can be used as medicine.

Can be sealed/not enshrined
Can herbal medicine be recognized and sealed by the emperor?
Chen Zheng was somewhat surprised.

But Wu San and He Daming didn't notice this at all. In order to show off, the two of them couldn't wait to go around here to find and dig hemostatic grass.

After a while, the three of them dug up a large handful of hemostatic grass, and then showed it to Chen Zheng as if asking for credit.

"It's almost there, let's move on."

Chen Zheng asked everyone to put away the herbal medicines, and continued to march toward the depths of the mountain forest.

Not long after I came out, I had a harvest, which was a good fortune, and everyone was even more motivated.

With the continuous deepening, Zhao Wu, who was walking in the front, continued to discover some edible berries, wild fruits, and five or six kinds of common medicinal herbs with different uses based on his experience.

Grass Aconitum, Anemarrhena, Cat's Claw, Litsea Cubeba
After Chen Zheng came into contact with them one by one, he knew their general functions without Zhao Wu's introduction at all, and he developed another use of the Emperor's Jade Document.

But apart from these odds and ends of wild fruits and herbs, they didn't see any decent shadows of beasts.

"Stop, take a break."

Seeing that they had gone deep into the forest for nearly two hours, everyone was a little out of breath. Chen Zheng waved his hand and led the three of them to rest in a clean area.

Then he took out a few pieces of dried meat from the cloth pocket he carried with him and threw them to the three of them.

The dried meat was of course air-dried and smoked from the deer leg that Xu Jiehu sent some time ago. Wu San, He Daming, and Zhao Wu were very grateful to take it, and then gobbled up the dry food and water they brought to replenish their strength.

Zhao Wu took a few mouthfuls and said vaguely:
"Brother Zheng, the area we passed in front of us is basically swept away, and the beasts have long since run away. In my opinion, if we climb over this mountain again, we should be able to gain something."

Chen Zheng also didn't think that he would be able to return with a full reward after entering the mountain for the first time, so he said calmly:

"It's okay, it's normal that you don't gain anything when you enter the mountain for the first time, just take it as accumulating experience first."

Wu San thought of something, hesitantly said:

"I heard that if you go deeper into the forest, there may be demons haunting you?"

The word "evil devil" caused the rest of the people to change their faces slightly, and Chen Zheng glanced over:

"Why, do you want to find them?"

Wu San saw the opportunity quickly, and immediately slapped himself lightly:

"Bah, look at my crow's mouth, I'm sorry Brother Zheng."

The team had just been established, and Chen Zheng didn't want to shake people's hearts, so he didn't say any more.

This world is weird, not only human beings will be possessed by evil and become crazy demons, even wild beasts will occasionally have this kind of situation.

Beasts do not have high spiritual intelligence. Once evil enters their bodies, they will immediately transform into crazy and bloodthirsty terrifying monsters. This is also the greatest danger that may exist in the wilderness, deep mountains and old forests.

Like this mountain forest occupied by the Tianmu religion, there used to be wild demons wandering in the wild, and many hunters died without even leaving the whole body.

Of course, this happened when Chen Zheng first joined the teaching.

Not long after the incident, Mrs. Wumu went out in person and led the experts to sweep up the mountains and forests within a dozen miles around the stronghold, completely killing the ferocious man-eating wild demons, and they would sweep up two or three times a year.

So it's hard to say if the forest is deeper, but at least within ten miles of the top of the mountain where the sub-rudder stronghold is, the possibility of encountering evil spirits is very low, otherwise there is no way to patrol the mountain and hunt.
