Hunter X Hunter: A Natural Trait Nemesis
Chapter 22 Going Into The Mountains To Practice (2/5)
"Trial..."
Zhou Jue couldn't help but ponder.
His thoughts about the oath became a little clearer.
…
…
Half a month from now.
Zhou Jue wanders around the mountains, sometimes wielding a knife, sometimes transforming into an orc, unleashing his nature to his heart's content.
He learns how animals survive in the forest.
Every time I identify an edible plant, I will be happy for a long time.
The clothes on his body were also torn and unused.
The hair and beard are getting longer, and there are more stains on the fair skin.
But his eyes are still bright.
By the time the agreed time to deliver supplies arrived, Zhou Jue had already turned into a sloppy look, with only a cloth tied around her waist to cover her body, and the rest of her body was completely exposed.
Zhou Jue himself didn't take it seriously.
Of course, he did not forget to recharge the bronze door every day.
However, after each trial, more [Qi] is needed to fill the bronze door.
Zhou Jue still injects one-third of the Qi every day, but it is estimated that it will take three or four months to fully fill the bronze door and then start the third trial.
"Let's get the supplies first."
Zhou Jue was not in a hurry and strolled down the mountain and through the forest to the agreed upon location.
over there.
Four people were already waiting with a large amount of supplies.
"Did he really live alone in the mountains for half a month?"
"Oh my God, it's incredible."
"Yeah, it's hard to imagine life without hot water, a bed, and delicious food."
Among the four people, three unfamiliar faces discussed in surprise.
The other person is Jerke.
He looked at the forest with some worry, fearing that something would happen to Zhou Jue.
Living alone in the mountains, loneliness can drive people crazy.
Not to mention the inconveniences caused by losing living facilities.
If you are injured or sick, it will be even more troublesome. In the wild, it is easy to get infected and have a bad stomach. If something happens, you will have to fight hard.
Also, it is difficult to find a safe place to rest.
The natural world is full of threats.
My nerves are tense almost 24 hours a day.
"Don't get into trouble, kid!" Jerke said secretly in his heart.
Uh-huh!
Suddenly, a figure quickly ran through the branches and leaves and ran out of the forest.
"who!"
Jerke and the other three were shocked.
"Hey, it's me!" Zhou Jue stopped in front of them and waved hello with a smile, "Long time no see, Jerke."
"You kid!" Jerk glared at Zhou Jue dissatisfied.
This kid always scares him!
While he was angry, Jerke was also observing Zhou Jue. He felt relieved when he saw that although Zhou Jue's clothes were in tatters and her body was dirty, she was in good spirits and her eyes were bright and alert.
Moreover, no wounds were seen, and the muscles of the body were not shriveled up.
This shows that Zhou Jue is doing well.
"I brought the supplies to you..." Jerke was saying when he suddenly felt something was wrong and looked up at Zhou Jue again.
wrong!
How can a person live well after being alone in the forest for half a month?
"Ah, thank you so much!" Zhou Jue was already smiling and flipping through the pile of supplies he had brought.
Jerke looked at him blankly, his expression dull.
He was surprised to find that Zhou Jue had an indescribable smell, like a strange feeling of independence and separation from society.
"..."
Jerke was greatly surprised.
Shouldn't the mountain environment consume people's energy and physical strength, making them weak and tired?
Why is this kid getting more powerful?
"Could it be that the mountains are your whetstone?" Jerke couldn't help but think this way.
This way.
Zhou Jue has dug out all the supplies.
New katana swords, shovels, daggers, spices, soaps, as well as health kits and a variety of common medicines.
However, he was unhurt and had no need for medicine or medical kits.
"From now on, I will bring you these things every half month."
Jerke said, pointing to the three teenagers standing a little stiffly next to him, "My legs and feet are not good. From now on, these three children will deliver supplies to you. They are the children of my old friends and they also want to be hunters."
"Hello." Zhou Jue gave the three of them a friendly smile.
That time when he became the alpha wolf, his and Jerke's reputations were completely established.
Many people want to send their children to Jerke to learn to be hunters.
These three should be the apprentices chosen by Jerke.
"Come and walk with me." Seeing Zhou Jue finish reading the supplies, Jerke stood up and walked aside.
Zhou Jue followed.
The two walked side by side.
The three apprentices stayed where they were and did not follow.
"Anlai misses you." Jerke said.
"I know." Zhou Jue nodded. He knew it without thinking, "But I will always leave."
"So you don't want to see Anlai and the others?" Jerke asked with a frown.
Many young people always leave early or quietly because they don't want to see the sadness of separation.
As everyone knows, not being able to say goodbye properly is the most hurtful thing.
"No, it has nothing to do with this."
Zhou Jue shook his head, looked down at one of his palms, and muttered: "I do it for practice... In life in the mountains, peace is short-lived. Most of the time, you have to tighten your nerves and be careful of all kinds of poisonous snakes, There are poisonous insects, forked roads, sharp rocks, and you have to be prepared for wild beast attacks when you sleep at night. This kind of tight life can easily make people physically and mentally exhausted."
"It stands to reason that humans are accustomed to a peaceful environment and should not be able to adapt to survival in the wild."
"But I take it as normal, as if this is normal life...it's so strange."
Zhou Jue frowned as he spoke.
Hearing this, Jerke couldn't help but frown.
Is your boy a born masochist?
How could someone not like a peaceful life, but prefer the dangerous wilderness?
"Boy, you..." Jerk didn't know how to speak. He was worried that Zhou Jue had some mental illness.
"don’t worry."
Zhou Jue waved his hand and smiled in a relaxed tone: "This is part of my practice. It will be fine when I figure out why."
"Okay..." Jerke was silent for a moment and changed the topic.
He told Zhou Jue about the situation in the orphanage in the past half month.
The two chatted for half an hour.
Zhou Jue threw the two muddy herbs in his pants to Jerke and left with the supplies.
"Hiss, zebra, mantolo leaves...are there such good things in the mountains?" Jerke looked at the two herbs in surprise, "This can sell for at least 300,000 ring nuns!"
