"hush huh"

The weather was a bit gloomy. Although it didn't rain anymore, the wind was a bit strong, making the branches rattle, adding some lively atmosphere to the quiet forest.

"Flipped, flicked"

Occasionally, a few birds who are unwilling to be lonely fly out of their nests and scurry in the low and damp forest, which makes the quiet forest have a little bit of fresh air.

"Tap Tat Tat"

Lu Xiaoou and Kurapika walked on the path in the forest familiarly. They needed to pass through the dense bushes for a while, and they had to pass on the narrow path for a while.

The backpack on his body is getting bigger and bigger. In fact, Lu Xiaoou feels that his ability is more effective in the captives of gourmet food.

It's okay to be in Hunter x Hunter, the old thief's world view is very grand, as if the things he found along the way have never appeared in anime.

Although the journey was not peaceful, Kurapika still found out that Lu Xiaoou's purpose had always been very clear, but he didn't want to ask why, otherwise it would definitely be a bunch of problems of angles and degrees.

But he was still very surprised, why they didn't even encounter a wild beast even though they walked in a clear direction along the way.

It's like walking in your own back garden, you can go wherever you want, this should not be solved by any angle problem, and the angle cannot help people avoid beasts.

"Xiao Ou, why didn't we meet other beasts?" Kurapika asked, he was a good boy who asked questions.

As for the age difference between the two, Kurapika said that it was definitely not important what it was.

"This is actually very simple. You can see that the plants here have jagged bite marks, which proves that there are small animals living not far away, but there are large footprints over there, and they are very fresh, at least fresher than the bite marks. , proving that most of the animals here have entered the stomachs of other beasts, then there are no animals within at least ten meters in this direction, so you will not encounter wild animals when you walk this way." Lu Xiaoou pointed directly not far away A thicket of grass and footprints next to it.

"So that's how it is." Kurapika secretly wrote it down.

"We need to train, but we can't just fight when we encounter a beast. We still need targeted training." Lu Xiaoou said.

"Yes, I see." Kurapika hurried on with his head covered, walking behind Lu Xiaoou, stepping on the road he had stepped on, and for a moment he didn't want to speak at all, he just wanted to be quietly with Jingjing.

All of a sudden, the two of them became quiet, only the sound of hurrying was left.

"Okay, it's here." Lu Xiaoou smelled it from a distance, and knew that the information he had found before was not wrong, and this time the beast guarding the ingredients was exactly what he needed.

But this time the beast's nose is particularly sensitive, Lu Xiaoou felt that he should be more careful, after all, this beast was to be practiced by Kurapika first, just to consolidate the training results in the morning.

'Jue' slowly unfolded, and after wrapping his whole body, it slowly spread to wrap Kurapika and cut off the smell of the two, before Lu Xiaoou walked forward lightly.

It is strange to say that a big tree stands not far away. There are no other trees growing within three meters around the big tree, only a few scattered grasses, which does not look so desolate.

Of course, when people first see this tree, they will not notice its growth environment like Lu Xiaoou did, but the bright red and blood-like exquisite fruits on the tree, each of which is the size of a papaya, and the whole body is bright red, like a blood cell. The same, but there is a little unusual light pink in the middle, which is a sign that the Linglong fruit has matured.

"It's still the old rule. Once you distract the guardian beast, walk it for three hours and come back. But this time, keep a distance of one meter. Don't get hurt. This is a detoxifying herb."

Lu Xiaoou opened his mouth and didn't make a sound, just said his mouth shape, and pulled out a few unremarkable white grass next to him and handed it to Kurapika.

The color is very eye-catching alone, but mixed with a pile of dark green and light green, the tiny grass no more than ten centimeters is not eye-catching.

Kurapika nodded, took the grass and put it away properly, before turning to look at the guardian beast this time.

At first, Kurapika didn't notice the traces of the beast, but after Lu Xiaoou said it just now, he took a closer look and found that something was wrong with the trunk, and the densely packed trunk was the guardian beast.

It turned out to be a snake-shaped beast, but I don't know how it compares to the basilisk I met before.

Of course, the degree of power cannot be compared. After all, one is a beast and the other is a monster. There is no comparison at all. Otherwise, Lu Xiaoou would not let Kurapika deal with it alone with restrictions. It would be either training or death. .

"Are you ready?" Lu Xiaoou asked, looking at Kurapika.

Kurapika nodded and didn't speak. His eyes were fixed on the direction of the exquisite fruit tree on guard. He could feel that this beast was not at the same level as the ghost beast in the morning.

Seeing that Kurapika was ready, Lu Xiaoou began to carefully take back 'Jue' little by little.

As Kurapika's breath was exposed in the air, the snake that was taking a beautiful nap finally woke up.

"hiss hiss"

The snake spit made a sound in the air, and then the huge tree crown shook for a while, revealing a huge head with big lantern eyes~lightnovelpub.net~ It looks a little scary, and the head is like a bucket Thick body looks very difficult to deal with.

Recently, when the Linglong fruit is ripe, there are always some ignorant people who come to grab their food, so the snake-shaped beast is very sensitive to the smell of outsiders. It is not surprising that Kurapika appears, but it is very annoying.

Kurapika looked at the snake-like beast that wrapped itself in the tree, and knew that the strategy in the morning would probably not work, because there was no way to pick the fruit in a short period of time.

"swish"

Kurapika drew out his dagger, and at an extremely fast speed, he directly rushed towards the snake-shaped beast when it was still threatening with its head raised.

His intention was not to kill wild animals, so the saying that hitting a snake and hitting seven inches must not be used.

The sharp short knife slashed across the snake-shaped beast's head, leaving a wound, and dark red blood flowed out all at once.

"Aww..."

The beast obviously didn't expect the human being in front of him to do it without saying a word, which is simply unprofessional, but the real pain in his head reminded him that it was real.

But it is also a smart one, it doesn't leave the tree easily, it just raises its head even more vigilantly watching Kurapika not fight back for a while.

"Seems pretty clever."

Kurapika noticed the plan of the snake-shaped beast, and felt that this move would definitely not be enough to make it leave the exquisite fruit tree it depended on for survival, unlike the ghost beast before.

"swish"

Kurapika caught sight of the beast's eyes, and leaped towards the snake-shaped beast at an extremely fast speed.
