Huxiao Valley is located at the southernmost tip of Qingyun Mountain.
After descending the Xinxiu Peak and walking all the way, after walking through the long mountain road, the scene in front of Tang Jie suddenly opened, and he actually saw a village.
The village is small, there are only dozens of households, but it is full of noise. Several men dressed as villagers are holding a big horned cow. One of them is holding a long-eared knife and stabbing it in. He has stabbed the cow to death. Take out some money and give it to a student standing next to him. The student took the money and mumbled "It's just this little bit." He shook his head and left.
Some old ladies are drying herbs in the drying field, and there are also some middle-aged women giving money to the students.
A little farther away, you can see some iron cages. The cages are full of various beasts, and there are even some low-level beasts.
Tang Jie knew that this was Huxiao Village.
Huxiao Village is a very peculiar place in Xiyue College. The villagers here make a living mainly by trading the output of the valley with students.
After the students have harvested in the valley, if they find it cumbersome, they can sell it to the villagers here. The villagers handle it on the spot and sell it back to the college after processing. Sometimes there are fewer prey in Huxiao Valley, and the villagers will help catch some back and throw them into the valley.
Behind the village is the entrance to Tiger Roar Valley. A teacher sits at the entrance and is responsible for the fees. A sign was also erected next to the guru, saying various rules after entering the valley.
There are many rules, such as the use of powerful spells to destroy the valley's landscape environment, herbs less than one year old can not be excavated, some herbs can not be excavated roots, some herbs can not be excavated less than three years, and so on.
As for whether you know how to distinguish, the college doesn't care anymore. Anyway, it has been taught in class. If you bring something you shouldn't bring, then wait to be punished.
At this moment, Tang Jie had just arrived, and a middle-aged woman greeted her with a grin: "Brother is going to enter the valley? Why don't you buy a map from me first, you only need ten coins."
"Map? Ten?" Tang Jie asked in surprise.
"That's right." The woman clapped her hands and said, "Brother, you are not too expensive. With my map, the younger brother is not afraid to go wherever he goes. This is how my man was born and died."
"Why should I be afraid of getting lost?" Tang Jie said with a smile: "I need to get a card when I enter the valley. It will automatically teleport out of the valley after six hours of entry. If it is dangerous, it can be teleported temporarily. I don't have to worry about getting lost wherever I go. ?"
The woman smiled and said, "That's what I said, but besides showing the way, my map also has data records. You can remember exactly where there are monsters and herbs. Forget it, look at my brother. You are also a pleasing appearance, and I will suffer a little bit today. As long as you have five coins, it will always be a success."
"That said, your map must be selling well."
"That's natural." The woman boasted.
"In this case, if you want to come to the various medicine collection points marked all the way on this map, the ones that can be collected have been lighted long ago? Even if there are those without light, I am afraid that it is not so good." Tang Jie said leisurely.
The woman's face immediately stiffened, and her face was stern: "It turns out that it's not a fool. If you don't want to buy it, let's say it earlier. It's costing my old lady so much."
Speaking and shook his hand and left.
Tang Jie looked funny, and shouted, "If you are willing to have a coin, I will buy it."
The woman immediately turned her head: "Sure!"
Has quickly squeezed the map into his hands, lest he regret it.
Tang Jie looked at the map. Although the painting was rough, he finally marked out the terrain, and indeed included information. It was not a fake, so he paid the money.
When they came to Taniguchi, a few students were standing there. Seeing Tang Jie approaching, one of them said humanely: "Is it going to Huxiao Valley? Are you interested in walking with us?"
The terrain of Tiger Howl Valley is complex, with many monsters, and students often enter in teams.
However, Tang Jie had his own plans when he came here, but he could only refuse good intentions.
The student saw his refusal and didn't say anything. He just sneered, "He is self-righteous again."
Tang Jie didn't care too much, and he entered the valley by himself after paying the two hundred lings.
After entering the valley, Tang Jie looked at the map and walked inward along the mountain road.
This Tiger Roar Valley didn't look big, but the space inside was really not small. After walking for a while, Tang Jie saw that there was no one everywhere, patted his chest and said, "You can come out."
A small head came out of Tang Jie's arms, and it was Yiyi.
First looked around, then she suddenly turned over and jumped onto Tang Jie's shoulder, jumping and shouting: "Oh, finally come out, come out!"
Then he looked at the surrounding scenery and exclaimed loudly: "Wow, it's so beautiful!"
The scenery of this Tiger Roar Valley is indeed good. They are standing on a meadow at the moment. Not far away, some unnamed flowers are in full bloom. There are various colors of red, green, pink and purple, and they are in full bloom. A little further afield is a lush forest.
The mountain breeze occasionally blew through the valley, causing a rustle; the birds passed through the pine sand, and there was a crisp cry; there was also the silk of the sun in the forest, which scented the fragrance of the grass.
Yiyi jumped off Tang Jie and ran fast on the grass with her bare feet, making giggles from time to time.
For her, this is the first time to come to such a big place without having to hide herself. No wonder she is so happy. This made Tang Jie also feel a little guilty. After all, she was not strong enough to let her appear in front of people. Like the three big monsters that wash the moon, everyone knows that her whole body is a treasure, and who dares to use them as a material for training.
In this world, power alone cannot determine everything, but powerless cannot determine anything!
"Brother, is this our new home?" asked as he ran.
"Sorry, it's not here, we can only come here for six hours." Tang Jie replied.
"Really..." Yiyi pursed her lips sadly when she heard this.
"But if we can harvest enough this time, we can come every day in the future."
"Really?" Yi Yi got excited, and jumped back on Tang Jie's shoulder again: "Say, what are we doing?"
"Simple, find herbs and kill monsters." Tang Jie replied.
There are no two types of resources in Huxiao Valley. One is the spiritual plant that can be used as medicine, and the other is the monster beast with the value of taking materials. The former needs to be found, the latter needs to fight, anyway, neither of them is so easy to obtain.
At this moment, when Tang Jie said so, Yi Yi turned her head a little: "Well, it's up to me!"
He closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
The spirits of plants and trees are naturally sensitive to the breath of goblins and ghosts, even if they are a few miles away, they can smell that unusual breath. After all, this is an important basis for the creatures to avoid danger in the early stage.
After a while, Yiyi pointed a small hand to the distance: "There is Zhilan over there, there are Linghua over there, and over there, over there and over..."
She swept through the mess with her little hand, she was dazzled by Tang Jie, and she could only say: "Zhilan will take two years to pick it up."
"I can't smell it!" Yi Yi replied dissatisfied, her little nose wrinkled and continued to sniff, and suddenly she yelled and covered her nose: "It smells so smelly... There is a big snake coming here!"
She pointed to the west with a small hand.
"Big snake?" Tang Jie quickly picked up the map and looked at what creatures nearby, his complexion changed slightly: "It's a spotted snake!"
The spotted snake, a monster beast in Huxiao Valley, has a colorful body, poisonous mouth fluid, and loves living creatures.
This thing is also considered a tyrant in Tiger Howl Valley, and the students dare not easily mess with it. They didn't expect Tang Jie to bump into it as soon as he entered the valley.
Needless to say, this must be Yiyi's introduction.
Although the plant spirit is sensitive to the breath of monsters, those monsters are also sensitive to her breath. This kind of spiritual life is not only for people, but also for monsters. Therefore, as soon as Yiyi appeared, a spotted snake was already there. Immediately rushed over.
Although Tang Jie also knew that this might happen with Yi Yi, he didn't expect this situation to happen so quickly and in such a hurry.
At this moment, Tang Jie knew badly, and shouted, "Go!"
Grabbing Yiyi and thrusting it into his arms, he rushed forward quickly.
Just after rushing out, I saw a colorful snake swimming over from a distance.
The snake's feet are seven or eight meters long, and the body is as thick as a bucket. The green eyes make the scalp numb.
It spit out a long letter and beat the air, catching the scent left in the air, then made a long hiss, and chased it in the direction of Tang Jie's escape.
Running all the way, Yi Yi yelled in Tang Jie's arms: "It's still chasing!"
"It's really troublesome!" Tang Jie continued to run wildly all the way.
"Didn't you say that we came to kill the monster beast? Why do we still run?"
"Because the monster beast I planned to kill didn't include it!" Tang Jie replied in an angry manner.
Huxiao Valley, as a place for students' first-level actual combat exercises, is said to be safer than the outside world for three main reasons.
One is that there is a teleportation card. If you encounter danger, the students can immediately leave through the teleportation card. This is the greatest guarantee for the safety of students, but leaving early means missing the opportunity. The college will never let you reenter the valley unless you pay more.
The second is that all the monsters here have information, and there will never be any monsters that are not on the information, and students have never seen it before. So the students are very clear about which monsters can deal with and which can't deal with.
The third is that there are no monsters above the psychic rank, and there is only one high-grade monster, and the rest are low-grade and medium-grade.
According to the division method of Qixia Realm, fairies and ghosts are generally divided into five levels: psychic, enlightenment, transformation, distraction, and return to the void.
As for Yi Yi, she has not yet entered the product.
Except for these three, the other conditions are the same as the outside world. If one's reaction slows down and is eaten by a monster, then one can only blame one's incompetence.
The monster is very different from the student.
The students belong to the realm, and the strength belongs to the strength.
The realm is like the level of students, and spells are like skills. If there is no level without skills and equipment, it is useless. Therefore, there are more practitioners whose real strength is lower than the realm.
The monsters are different. Their strength is directly related to their realm, and they really have any strength at any level. In particular, some monsters have extraordinary talents. Even in the psychic period, they are extremely powerful. In addition to their strength, their realm improvement also contains elements of wisdom, and their development direction is very different from that of humans.
Because of this, there are many monsters whose strength exceeds the level of performance, even if it is a monster of the psychic period, it is not surprising that a cultivator who is out of the ordinary realm can be defeated.
This spotted snake is a middle-grade monster in Huxiao Valley.
Even if it is not a powerful existence, such a grade alone represents a student whose strength is comparable to the invincible level of the Linghu Rank-Tang Jie has not yet reached this stage in Lingquan, how dare to fight it.
Running all the way at this moment, Tang Jie turned Yiyi back into a flower shape while running.
After returning to the flower shape, the aura of the whole body is restrained, and the aura that escapes will be greatly reduced.
It's just that the spotted snake has already smelled it, so it would give up easily. No matter how introverted this spiritual energy is, there will always be a little bit in the air.
"Damn! It's really difficult!" Tang Jie couldn't get rid of the big snake at a glance. On the contrary, he was chased by it, and it was quite a headache for a while.
Although he had a jade medal, he wouldn't have to worry about his life, but he couldn't accept the fact that he was kicked out as soon as he entered the valley.
"What should I do now? What should I do?" Seeing that it became useless, the little guy poked his head out again.
This time is good, the big snake chased more fiercely.
"What can I do? Race against it." Tang Jie rolled his eyes helplessly.
The thought of being chased desperately when he first entered the valley made him feel bored.
Hearing this, Yiyiwa burst into tears: "It's all my fault, it's all I brought in... oooo..."
She cried so sad that Tang Jie was embarrassed, knowing that she had a bad tone just now in a hurry and broke the heart of the little girl, so she could only touch her head and said, "It's not your fault, baby, a snake. That's it, can't you do anything to us?"
"But it's chasing us now..."
"Yes, I know." Tang Jie glanced back.
The dust rose in the distance, and the big snake roared and swam all the way, with an amazing aura, suddenly let out a hiss, the sound almost pierced the eardrum.
Tang Jie snorted, "Don't you just want to eat? I'll make you full!"
As he said, he suddenly changed direction and rushed towards the other side.
…
On a piece of grass on the south side of Huxiao Valley, a group of big horn cattle were pacing slowly, gnawing on the grass on the ground.
Big horns are undoubtedly the lowest link in the biological chain of Qixia Realm. Except for the sharp horns above their heads, they have no other weapons.
Their only meaning in Huxiao Valley is to become food for those monsters to ensure the normal food chain.
According to the rules of the academy, these non-active attacking creatures can be captured and brought out alive, but they cannot be killed directly. Occasionally, there are students who have nothing to gain in the valley, and they will grab one of them and sell them.
At this time, the big horn cattle are drinking by the stream.
A little calf was a little disobedient and wanted to squeeze to the front, but was pushed by the grumpy bull and hit the head directly. The calf yelled aggrievedly on the ground, then got up and returned to his team honestly. It returned to the mother aggrievedly, and leaned against the cow for a few times, seeking comfort.
Then something happened that it would never understand.
In the distance, a person is rushing towards this side at full speed.
The man rushed in suddenly, and then the calf saw his mother flying up suddenly...
"Moo..." The Mavericks let out a horrified cry in his own way.
The herd is boiling.
He grabbed another big horned bull at random, and Tang Jie threw it back fiercely. The big horned bull weighed seven or eight hundred catties. Even if Tang Jie’s current physique was very difficult to throw, it was already activated at this moment. No phase golden body.
The big horned bull flew in the sky and fell to the colorful giant snake. The big snake opened its mouth, and the snake head suddenly expanded, already swallowing the big horn bull in one bite.
Although he came to eat Yiyi, since someone brought food to his mouth, he didn't mind having a regular meal by the way.
The cows ran in panic, while Tang Jie ran after the cows, then grabbed another cow and threw it back.
He specifically threw it into the snake's mouth. The gluttonous nature made this spotted snake irresistible. He swallowed another one and still chased it wildly.
"I have a good appetite... I think you can eat a few!" Tang Jie snorted, and threw two more cows over.
The spotted snake swallowed continuously, and swallowed by four cows in a row. Even with its body shape, it began to become bloated. It couldn't chase it any longer, and finally stopped. It was just a pair of big eyes still staring at Tang Jie, and the body was still working hard. The forward travel is much slower and cumbersome.
"Chasing! You are chasing again!" Tang Jie sneered, "Beasts are beasts. No matter how great they are, they can't change their nature."
Saying that, Tang Jie also sweated down his forehead.
He was chased by this big snake just now. If it weren't for the speed of Zidian's stamina, he would have been forced out of the valley now.
At this moment, the herd was already far away. Tang Jie saw that the big snake could not move anymore. He moved in his heart and wondered if he could take the opportunity to kill it
He tentatively walked a few steps towards the big snake, and slowly approached.
The big snake ate too much, and at this time it was completely paralyzed on the ground and could not move.
Seeing Tang Jie getting closer and closer, the spotted snake suddenly straightened up half-length, and opened its mouth to Tang Jie suddenly, with a whistle, a large swath of venom was sprayed over the sky.
Fortunately, Tang Jie was awake, the Zidian method was always in operation, and quickly retreated. The venom fell from him like rain, fell on the grass, and the grass withered immediately.
A drop of venom fell on Tang Jie's arm, corroding a large piece of his flesh and blood like a strong acid.
Looking at the big snake again, staring straight at him, revealing fangs full of barbs and thorns, the long letter stretched and pointed directly at Tang Jie.
Obviously, even if this big guy can't move, he can't deal with it now.
Tang Jie pointed at the snake unwillingly: "Count you cruel!"
Turned around and left.
"Hiss!" The spotted snake hissed angrily.
Obviously, neither side is satisfied with this ending.
