More than three hundred miles, not far, the horse galloped for more than an hour, the wheat field gradually became scarce, and mountains began to appear, and the continuous green hills appeared in front of everyone.
"Xiao Lan, is An Nan Ridge ahead?"
Mu Feng looked at the long mountains and asked.
"Well, Master Feng, we can't go too deep. I heard that there are fierce beasts and monsters haunting it. If you go too deep, you will encounter danger."
Mulan said.
"Aww...!"
Just as Mu Lan finished speaking, a long wolf howl came from the distant mountains, seeming to respond to what Mu Lan said.
Mu Feng frowned, seeing that the sun had already set, he said, "Everyone, rest here for the night, we are going into the mountains tomorrow."
The few people naturally listened to Mu Feng, but at this moment, in the distant mountain forest path, a figure ran out of the forest staggeringly, and fell not far away.
"Brother Feng, there is someone"
Mu Kuang saw it with sharp eyes, dismounted and ran towards the man, and Mu Feng and others followed.
I saw a burly and unkempt man wearing an animal skin breastplate crawling on the ground motionless, with blood on his body, he seemed to be seriously injured.
Mu Feng hurriedly supported the man in his arms, only to see that there were torn claw marks on the man's chest, the flesh was turned out, dripping with blood, as if he had been attacked by a large ferocious beast, and Mu Feng's pulse was still beating when he touched the man's neck.
"Alive, Mu Kuang, bring water"
"To Brother Feng!"
Mu Kuang brought water, and Mu Feng poured it down for the man. The man drank the water, coughed a few times before waking up from Yoyo, showing vigilance, heaved a sigh of relief when he saw a few human teenagers.
"Ahem, thank you little brothers, my name is Wang Sheng, thank you brothers for saving me"
This man was in his twenties, got up from Mu Feng's arms, sat on the ground, and clasped his fists at Mu Feng and others.
"You're welcome, Brother Wang Sheng, what's wrong with you, you're in such a mess?"
Mu Feng asked, but he was vigilant in his heart.
This man is not an ordinary person, he has vitality flowing in his body, he is a cultivator, so Mu Feng is not sure what his cultivation level is.
"Hey, I'm a herb picker. I went to the mountain to collect herbs with my companions, but I met a blood-haired tiger. Both of my companions were eaten by that beast, so I escaped desperately."
Wang Sheng said with a sigh.
Herb pickers, the resources in Annan Ridge are diverse, there are many precious herbs, even elixir, a precious herb is worth a lot of money, there are thousands of gold coins, elixir is even more precious, get a precious plant The money sold for the elixir is enough for ordinary people to live a stable life.
Herbal collectors are specialized in collecting herbs in the mountains, and most of them are not strong.
Some powerful people formed a group and formed a team of mercenaries, went into the mountains to collect medicine, hunted and killed ferocious beasts, and helped people carry darts.
"Blood-haired tiger! That's a ferocious beast!"
Mu Feng was slightly surprised when he heard the words. The weakest of the beasts was called the wild beast. The wild beast only had strength. It was an ordinary beast without vitality.
Those who have cultivated Yuanli are called fierce beasts. Fierce, as the name suggests, are vicious and dangerous. The fierce beasts are powerful. The weak ones have the cultivation base of the purple mansion, and the strong ones have the power to move mountains and seas.
There is also a monster called a monster. There is no difference between a monster and a fierce beast. The only difference is that a monster can change into a human, so there is a word for a monster, and they are also called a monster.
However, the relationship between the human race and the monster race has always been bad.
"Isn't that right? That beast should be a fierce beast in the Purple Mansion. We are only in the Tongmai Realm. When we met that beast, we had to escape for our lives. I escaped, but unfortunately my two companions died in the tiger's mouth "
Wang Sheng showed a trace of sadness, and drank a few sips of water.
"Hey, my brother's condolences"
Mu Feng patted the opponent's shoulder and gave him a meatloaf. Wang Sheng gobbled it up and regained some strength.
Wang Sheng said to Mu Feng: "I think these little brothers are not ordinary people, they are all disciples of cultivation families. If you want to go into the mountains to hone your skills, it is best not to go deep into the mountains for thirty miles. There is nothing dangerous in thirty miles outside the mountains. Beast, if you go too deep, there will be fierce beasts active, thank you a few, and I will leave."
Wang Sheng stood up, clasped his fists at Mu Feng and the others, and then staggered away.
Mu Feng and others watched the man leave, and Mu Lan became a little scared.
"Master, do we still have to enter the mountain?"
"That's right, Brother Feng, with our current strength, if we meet a ferocious beast, I'm afraid we won't be the match."
Mu Kuang was also a little worried.
"I want to go into the mountains to practice. In this way, Xiaolan, Ziyue, you two should go back first. Ziyue, you have no actual combat ability, and you don't even have the vitality to cultivate and recharge your pulse. It is really dangerous to go into the mountains. Mu Kuang and I stay behind." practice"
Mu Feng frowned and said, he didn't quite agree with Bai Ziyue and Mu Lan's coming.
"No, Brother Feng, I want to accompany you, if there is any danger, we will die together"
Bai Ziyue said firmly.
"If you don't go, I won't go"
Mulan also expressed his opinion.
Mu Feng was a little helpless, and scolded with a smile: "Damn your sister, I didn't come here to seek death, but your strength is really not suitable for coming here. If you encounter danger, it will be a burden for me and Mu Kuang, and it will kill us. Well, be obedient, go back first, and wait for you to cultivate to the ninth level of Tongmai Tongmai, and I will bring you here in the future."
After listening to the persuasion, the two had no choice but to leave, leaving only Mu Feng and Mu Kuang.
The two sat down on the big rock pile beside the mountain road, picked up the firewood, and built a bonfire. Mu Feng looked at Mu Kuang and said solemnly: "Little Kuang, the two of us only have two years. Contemporaries in the academy, we just have to put in more effort, do you understand?"
"Brother Feng, I understand"
Mu Kuang nodded, Mu Feng hesitated, and then said: "I'll pass on a formula and exercise route to you, you must not tell others, or your life will be in danger, you know?"
Mu Feng intends to pass on to Mu Kuang the cultivation method of turning blood into energy in front of the Condensation Realm in Shura Sutra.
"Do you practice exercises?"
Mu Kuang was taken aback.
"Well, you close your eyes, first remember the circuit of my luck in your body"
Mu Feng nodded, and put his palm on Mu Kuang's back, a trace of vitality in his body poured into Mu Kuang's back, and walked according to the exercise route in front of the Shura Sutra.
Mu Feng walked through Mu Kuang's body several times, and then passed the formula to Mu Kuang again.
"Brother Feng, what kind of exercise is this? How is it different from the family's Iron Blood Pill Art? It feels so complicated"
Mu Kuang asked curiously.
"Hey, what kind of exercises, you will know tomorrow, you will know when you come into the mountains with me."
Mu Feng smiled mysteriously, and then the two of them also sat cross-legged here. Mu Feng entered the cultivation process, and began to absorb the vitality from the aura of heaven and earth, while Mu Kuang leaned against the stone and fell asleep soundly.
The next day, the first ray of sunshine in the morning sprinkled on the hills, the dew glistened in the morning light, the Annan Mountains had thousands of peaks, and the ancient trees were crisp.
After tying the horse in the woods, Mu Kuang picked up the knife, and the two got up and headed towards the vast Annan Ridge...
