"Yes, it's six or two. My uncle said that there is a big household in Kangyun County whose demand for Blightgrass has increased dramatically recently. The drugstores in Kangyun County are almost sold out, and the price has been soaring. The price has reached 8 taels."
Guo Ye said: "My uncle has been busy going around various villages recently, just to get more cool dry grass and sell it to that big family."
"It turned out to be like this..."
Xu Ning nodded rather dully, but his mind kept thinking about picking cool dry grass.
"Recently, when you are picking herbs, you can pay more attention to the cool grass. This thing is worth a lot now."
Guo Ye put three taels of silver in Xu Ning's hand and reminded him.
"Thank you very much."
Xu Ning took the money, exchanged some pleasantries, and went straight out.
Without much hesitation, he returned home, took the hatchet, arranged his equipment, and rushed towards Yunze Mountain.
Xu Ning wants to take advantage of this opportunity to make some money first to relieve the current economic pressure.
…
After more than half an hour, Xu Ning came to Yunze Mountain again.
In fact, Yunze Mountain is not a mountain, but a continuous mountain range.
In the meantime, the mountains are steep, there are many ferocious beasts, and there are even rumored monsters. It is a very dangerous place.
But there are also a lot of precious resources in it, so people in several nearby villages and villages are willing to drill into it, which can be regarded as supporting one party.
"Although the strength has improved, you still have to be careful..."
Xu Ning's destination is relatively clear, so his pace is not slow.
But at the same time, he held the hatchet firmly in his hand, and was always observing the movement around him.
"arrive!"
Xu Ning followed the route in his memory and found the place full of dry grass.
It was a rather steep mountain, and at a glance, it was a large piece of dry grass.
The cool dry grass swayed with the breeze, looking at it from a distance, it reflected the bleak autumn atmosphere.
But in Xu Ning's eyes at this moment, it was all money.
"Fortunately, this piece of cool grass hasn't been discovered yet..."
At this time, Xu Ning was still tens of meters away from the piece of cool grass, but he didn't go there immediately.
This is the boundary between the inner circle and the outer circle of Yunze Mountain.
There are fewer wild animals in the outer circle, and it is safer, while in the inner circle, not only are there more ferocious beasts, but also poisonous insects and weeds are everywhere.
Xu Ning was very cautious. He climbed up a nearby tree, looked around and found no signs of danger.
"Quickly pick and leave quickly..."
Xu Ning got down from the tree, fastened the hatchet behind his waist, and ran over quickly.
He began to bend down, carefully pulled out the pieces of dry grass one by one, and then threw them into the basket.
"This piece of cool dry grass is really quite a lot. It has to be pulled out. It is estimated to weigh fifty catties!"
While pulling it out, Xu Ning was thinking, this far exceeded his expectations.
If they all go to Guo Ye, these can be exchanged for nearly three hundred taels of silver.
That's a lot of money.
Although Xu Ning's movements were careful, he did not procrastinate. In just a quarter of an hour, the back basket was fully filled.
"This must weigh more than twenty catties..."
Xu Ning's pannier is not small, but it has been completely filled at this time.
Seeing about half of the dry grass that hadn't been pulled out, Xu Ning thought about it for a moment, and decided to leave first.
One is that I no longer have suitable storage tools, and the other is that the things are too heavy, which will affect the speed of movement if I encounter danger.
Xu Ning flattened the cool dry grass in the basket, and then sealed it.
After tidying up, Xu Ning put the pannier on his back.
He was just about to turn around and leave.
Suddenly, a rustling sound came from behind his ears.
"Footsteps..."
Xu Ning was shocked, he instantly pulled the hatchet away from the back of his waist, and turned around.
There were five or six big black wolves standing at a higher place, staring at him coldly.
"Hoo..."
Xu Ning took a deep breath.
Still running into trouble.
He thought for a moment, then suddenly stepped forward and roared.
The few black wolves who were eager to try wanted to attack, but they were so frightened by Xu Ning, they each took a step back.
Taking advantage of this gap, Xu Ning, who was looking desperate, immediately turned around and ran away.
"Sure enough, the further you go into Yunze Mountain, the greater the risk!"
Xu Ning looked back while running.
Those black wolves had already chased after them, obviously planning to regard themselves as prey.
"Can't run!"
Soon, Xu Ning realized this problem.
The mountain road here is steep, and it is the home of wild beasts. In addition, he is carrying more than 20 kilograms of dry grass, so it will be a matter of time before he is overtaken.
Xu Ning heard the footsteps chasing behind him getting closer.
He gritted his teeth and didn't run away, leaning on the nearest big tree and climbing up directly.
Climb the tree with the front foot, and the black wolf will chase after him.
They jumped up and down, and one of them almost grabbed Xu Ning's trousers.
These black wolves in the inner circle of Yunze Mountain are not only larger in size than those in the outer circle, but also have higher jumping range and more strength.
"I have to find a way to escape..."
Xu Ning looked solemn, looking at the black wolves under the tree who wanted to tear him apart, his mind was still thinking.
Running is definitely impossible, and now there are only two ways to choose.
Or wait until these black wolves go away.
Either get down the tree and fight these black wolves to the death.
"Now that I have achieved a little success in Gaefeng Saber, I should have the skills to deal with a few black wolves..." Xu Ning thought, "However, if I try my best, I will definitely be at risk of being injured... If I get injured here, even if I escape from the wolf's claws, there is still danger. May be buried in the bellies of other beasts..."
Xu Ning was a little confused.
Sure enough, if you want to obtain some excess returns, you have to take risks.
Xu Ning calmed himself down, and then moved up to prevent a black wolf from jumping up and scratching himself.
At this time, the black wolves who tried to pounce on the tree several times but failed gradually calmed down.
However, they still surrounded the tree, staring at Xu Ning, obviously not planning to let him go.
"Wait first..."
It was not yet noon, so Xu Ning could afford it.
Time passed by every minute and every second.
Xu Ning began to eat some bread that he carried with him to replenish his strength, and the black wolves under the tree also lay down beside the tree, guarding Xu Ning, without the slightest intention of leaving.
Two hours passed.
"These guys are too patient..."
Xu Ning found that these black wolves were very persistent to themselves, without any irritability, and were very patient.
If this consumption continues, his physical strength will be reduced, and his combat effectiveness will decrease even more.
"Fight it!"
Xu Ning showed a determined gaze.
He looked down and saw that the black wolves were lying under the tree in a circle, their heads bowed.
It was afternoon, and they seemed a little tired, and their attention was distracted a lot.
Xu Ning took a deep breath and jumped.
"drink!"
Xu Ning held the hatchet tightly in his hand, and for a while, all the essence of Gale Feng's knife technique echoed in his mind.
Fierce sword wind!
Xu Ning took advantage of the momentum of his leap and slashed down on the back of the largest black wolf.
Pooh!
Blood splattered.
The black wolf howled and wanted to get up, but his spine was broken and he could only struggle on the spot.
Meanwhile, the other black wolves were frightened.
They didn't expect Xu Ning's sudden attack, and their subconscious action was to dodge.
"good chance!"
This time, Xu Ning did not escape anymore.
Instead of advancing, he retreated, and swung his knife again at the black wolf who was closest to him.
Pooh!
Neck torn.
Of the six black wolves, two have been abolished.
At this time, the black wolf finally began to resist.
But Xu Ning didn't panic anymore, two of the six black wolves had been eliminated, and one of them was the strongest.
His pressure on the enemy dropped sharply.
Xu Ning started to back away, leaning his back against the tree trunk, to prevent the four black wolves from attacking him back and forth.
In this way, one person and four wolves looked at each other.
This time, no one made the first move.
The still-dead black wolf beside him was still howling.
The scene is still dangerous.
Just when Xu Ning was about to continue fighting, suddenly, a black wolf took a step back.
Immediately afterwards, the other three black wolves also backed away.
Their icy eyes left Xu Ning's body, glanced at their seriously injured companion, and then turned and left.
Soon, the figures of the black wolves disappeared from Xu Ning's sight.
The instinct of the beast made the remaining four black wolves feel the threat of death.
They choose to abandon this dangerous prey.
"It's safe..."
Xu Ning's tense nerves can finally be relieved.
He glanced at the two black wolves who were seriously injured and abandoned by their partners.
"The cruel law of nature used to treat me as a prey, but was killed by me instead of thinking..."
Xu Ning didn't stay any longer, turned around and left.
Normally, he might have chopped up the two black wolves for material.
Although there are many wild wolves in the outer circle of Yunze Mountain, and their fur is worthless, this black wolf has a bright color and sharp claws, and it can be sold for at least seven or eight taels of silver.
But at this time, it was too close to the inner circle of Yunze Mountain, cutting the fur would take time, and the smell of blood would attract even more terrifying beasts during the period.
After weighing it, Xu Ning gave up the spoils this time.
But he didn't feel sorry either, the dry grass in his back basket was really worth a lot of money.
"go home!"
Xu Ning wiped the blood on the hatchet and quickly left the place.
