Fairy Desire

"Little brother, is the target you shot in there?" Shopkeeper Liu pointed to a small piece of withered yellow grass near the base of the wall, widened his eyes, and searched carefully, but he never found the target Meng Xiang was talking about.

Meng Xiang didn't explain much, stretched out his foot to push the piece of weeds away, pointed to something the size of a fist and said, "Isn't this the one?"

Shopkeeper Liu looked closer and looked again, and finally found out what Meng Xiang was talking about. It was actually a mouse, but because of a huge hole in its body, it was almost completely deformed, so he didn't look at it at first. come out.

Forcibly suppressing the hiccup feeling in his stomach, shopkeeper Liu forced a smile and said, "Little brother, you really are a good shot." Although he didn't see the tiger-tooth arrow shot by Meng Xiang, the trauma on the mouse was enough to heal it. It proves everything.

After all, shopkeeper Liu ordered his subordinates to dispose of the dead mouse, and then walked back together with Meng Xiang and Yan Shi, seemingly unwilling to take a second look at the bloody, almost invisible mouse.

Walking back to the shooting place, shopkeeper Liu subconsciously looked at the target in the distance, with a surprised expression on his face, as if he saw something unbelievable.

Originally shopkeeper Liu had already admired Meng Xiang's archery skills when he found out that Meng Xiang shot two hundred feet away, and it was a mouse hidden in the grass.At such a long distance, ordinary people can't see such a small target at all, let alone shoot accurately.

He is not someone who has never seen the world, so he is very aware of the difficulty, but he found that he still far underestimated Meng Xiang's archery skills.

When he accidentally looked at the targets in front of him just now, he realized that the shot mouse was actually behind those targets, and his subordinates did not find any breakage on the targets before, which meant that Meng Xiang shot The Huya arrow that went out bypassed those targets and hit the target.

Being able to change the flight trajectory of the arrows shot out is quite difficult, but ordinary people with high archery skills can also do it, but they are far from being able to compare with Meng Xiang, and they are not even comparable at all.

Meng Xiang used a tiger bow that required [-] jin of force to draw, and most people who know how to shoot arrows know that the stronger the bow, the faster the arrow flies, and the faster the arrow flies, the harder it is to change the flight trajectory , the speed of the tiger-toothed arrows shot with the tiger bow is not comparable to the speed of the arrows shot by ordinary bows and arrows, let alone the target is still two hundred feet away.

Shopkeeper Liu looked at Meng Xiang with a different gaze. If before he knew he was a tiger warrior, he saw his gaze as ordinary people seeing treasures, then his gaze now is that of a miser seeing a huge golden mountain.

Seeing the change in Shopkeeper Liu's expression, Meng Xiang secretly laughed in his heart: After all, this Liu Futong still has some sharp eyesight, so I didn't waste my performance in vain.

Shopkeeper Liu rolled his eyes and asked casually, "Little brother, do you know if this tiger bow is still usable?"

"Yes, it's very easy to use."

"That's good. The so-called sword matches a hero. Since this tiger bow matches the little brother so well, you might as well buy it. The little brother has this tiger bow, which is even more powerful. I believe it won't be long before Maple Town The seat of the first hunter should be taken by the little brother."

"Shopkeeper Liu, you've flattered me. I'm just a newcomer, so how can I be compared with those hunting masters. I'm still young, and I still have a lot to learn." Although Meng Xiang's mouth was modest, there was something in his expression. With obvious self-confidence, it is obvious that he agrees with Shopkeeper Liu's words.

"Little brother, modesty is a good thing, but excessive modesty will inevitably make people feel a little humble." Shopkeeper Liu smiled all over his face, "Little brother, it is fate that we can meet today. How about it, this fierce tiger Bow, I’ll give you a 5000% discount. It was originally worth 4000 taels, but now I only charge you [-] taels. In addition, I’ll give you a hundred tiger-tooth arrows as a gift. Little brother, what do you think?”

"This... this..." Meng Xiang showed a troubled expression, "Shopkeeper Liu, let me tell you the truth. I like this tiger bow very much, but it is too expensive, and I can't afford it at all."

As he spoke, he pushed the Tiger Bow in front of Shopkeeper Liu, but anyone who wasn't blind could see the reluctance on his face.

"So that's how it is." Shopkeeper Liu nodded, "Four thousand silver is really not a small number, but if the little brother really likes it, I can let you pay another 500 taels, but it won't work any lower. Speaking of business, 500 taels is already the cost price of this Tiger Bow, our Lianfeng may not make money, but we cannot sell it at a loss."

Meng Xiang smiled wryly: "Thank you shopkeeper Liu for your kindness, but I still can't afford it." Reluctantly looking at the Tiger Bow, he stood up abruptly and strode outside.

"Wait a minute. Little brother, wait a moment." Now it was Shopkeeper Liu's turn to be anxious, "Little brother, go slowly. If you really like this tiger bow, we can use other methods to solve it."

"Oh?" Meng Xiang turned around abruptly, his eyes shining brightly, "Shopkeeper Liu, what is the other method you mentioned?"

"The thing is like this, our Lianfeng is preparing to do a big thing, but we don't have enough experts... Well, it's a bit complicated to talk about, so let's go to the living room and talk about it while drinking tea."

Shopkeeper Liu took Meng Xiang and Yan Shi out of the archery range and came to a spacious living room.When they came in, all kinds of snacks and fragrant tea were already set on the table.

Next, while drinking tea, shopkeeper Liu told Meng Xiang and Yan Shi the general outline of the matter.It's winter now, and there will be a cold wave in about a month. At that time, the town will be sealed and will not open until February of the next year.

In order to store food for the winter, and also to test whether the skills of the hunters in the town have improved this year, a hunting competition will be held as usual. Received an award from the town government.

As a major force in Fengshu Town, Lianfeng will naturally send people to participate. Unfortunately, although their weapons are good, their strength is not good, and they have not won a good ranking in the past few years.What's worse is that the other major forces in the town, such as the Town House Guard, Security Brigade, and Hunter Alliance...their results are better than theirs, which makes them very passive.

With the memory of his previous life, Meng Xiang naturally understands that the hunting competition is not just a simple examination of the skills of the hunters, but also reflects the level of strength among the major forces to a certain extent, and if the strength is strong, the entire town will have A greater right to speak will naturally gain more power and benefits.

Participating in the hunting team of Lianfeng is actually the fundamental purpose of Meng Xiang coming to Lianfeng, and this is also the main reason why he wants to make such a big commotion on Lianfeng.

In fact, before Meng Xiang entered Fengshu Town, he was already planning this matter. He always carried the blood-maned wolf when he entered Fengshu Town, and deliberately used his exquisite knife in front of the fat guards and those townspeople who watched the excitement. The stone sculptures of bloodmaned wolves that were carved by the French were actually used as a foreshadowing for participating in the hunting team of the Lianfeng.

As Meng Xiang and Yan Shi are outsiders, no matter how strong their abilities are, they cannot participate in the competition in their own names until they have obtained the identity certificates from Maple Town. That's why he wanted to do everything possible to join the hunting team of the Lianfeng.With the guarantee of Lianfeng, they can participate in the hunting competition, show their strengths, and get a good ranking.

However, getting a good ranking in the Maple Town Hunting Contest is far from Meng Xiang's ultimate goal.He has the memory of his previous life, and he knows that in addition to the hunting competition held in Maple Town this year, all the small tree villages and tree towns within a thousand miles will also hold a larger-scale hunting competition.

Meng Xiang's real goal is to get a good ranking in the hunting competition. In addition to the fact that the top ten finishers in the hunting competition can get a rather generous reward, once he and Yan Shi get a good ranking for Maple Town, they can Accumulating huge Maple Town contributions, they will no longer have any problems applying for Maple Town identity cards.

With the memory of his previous life, he is very clear about what an identity certificate means to a person. The more advanced the identity certificate is, the more valuable it is. Many people have suffered a lot, suffered all kinds of stares, and even risked their lives for an ID card.

He and Yan Shi are people who are going to do big things, so they can't stay in Maple Town forever, or even the place where his previous life ended-Ironwood City is not their end, they have to go to a bigger place, to be precise It is said that it is heading towards the center of the tree world.

In the previous life, Meng Xiang once found a book introducing the situation of the tree world in a small shop selling used books.After reading it, he knew a fact that shocked him: the tree world was roughly in the shape of a huge disc, and Maple Town and even Ironwood City were at the very edge of this disc.

And the more you are on the edge of the tree world, the more scarce the resources are, and the fewer all kinds of good things, just like some good things that are considered valuable in Maple Town, they will become very common or even rare in Ironwood City. Just as worthless, the good things of Ironwood City will suffer the same fate if they are placed in a city closer to the core of the tree world than it is.Therefore, those who are capable will go to the core of the tree world, where there are more opportunities and greater room for improvement.

Naturally, high returns also represent high risks. Although Maple Town is short of resources, it is relatively safe. Although there are various natural disasters and animal disasters, most people can basically survive smoothly.

Most of the wild beasts around Maple Town, there are only a few fierce beasts, and they are all the kings of all kinds of beasts. Under normal circumstances, it is almost impossible to encounter them, even ordinary hunters will not be too big. danger.

Around Ironwood City, apart from ferocious beasts, ferocious beasts are no longer rare. Hunters often encounter them when they go out hunting, and they may even encounter monsters capable of witchcraft. Hunting is more dangerous than maple trees. The town does not know how many times higher.

The reason for this difference is only one thing, and that is the aura that has a huge influence on all things in the world, especially on living objects.The closer to the core of the tree world, the higher the content of aura, and nourished by aura, various creatures will evolve and become more powerful.

Although Meng Xiang and Yan Zhen now possess true qi, they have surpassed the first step in the realm of cultivating immortality - the body refining period, and reached the second step in the realm of cultivating immortals - the qi refining period, but they have not yet broken through the qi refining period , to reach the third step in the realm of cultivating immortals - the Dao Seed stage, it is still impossible to absorb aura through the Dao Seed, so there is no requirement for the aura content of the environment.

But once they reach the Dao Seed stage, they need to absorb the spiritual energy, use the spiritual energy to transform it into Dao Qi, and then promote to a higher level through the accumulation of Dao Qi.

At that time, they will put forward high requirements on the content of aura in the surrounding environment, because the content of aura is high, it will be easier for them to absorb it, the amount absorbed will be more, and the converted Dao Qi will be more efficient. There are more, and only with more Dao Qi can one be promoted to a higher realm faster.

Although the life of a cultivator is much longer than that of ordinary people, cultivating immortals goes against the laws of nature. Every step forward will be difficult, and they will also encounter various trials and tribulations, so they need to be promoted to A higher realm, in order to prevent accidents, makes them desperately want to get closer to the core of the tree world, which leads to the closer to the core of the tree world, the more intense the competition and the more dangerous it is.

After Meng Xiang negotiated the conditions with the shopkeeper, he walked out of the Lianfeng together with Yan Shi.Turning the corner, he threw it to Yan Shi like a tiger bow with a cost of 500 taels of silver, without the slightest nostalgia he showed in front of Shopkeeper Liu.
