A belt, a soft metal belt, four fingers wide, with a buckle on one end and a tiger-head hook on the other end.
"What's the use of this thing?" Wu Dongfang weighed the belt. The belt was not heavy, only three or four pounds, and the style was not old. It was yellowish and did not look like something with age.
"This copper belt has been tempered by us with gold energy. You tie it around your waist. If you are in danger, slap it off with all your strength." Pi Qiu pointed at the raised tiger head and said to Wu Dongfang.
"What will be the consequences if you shoot it?" Wu Dongfang leaned closer to the fire and looked closely at the tiger's head hook. Upon closer inspection, he found that the tiger's nose was not integrated with the entire hook.
"If you take the picture, we will know that you are in danger, and we will drag you to the capital in the shortest possible time." Pi Qiu said.
"Really?" Wu Dongfang was skeptical. He didn't know exactly how far the Jin tribe's capital was from here, but it took three days to walk from here to the tribe, and another day and night to rush back to the capital from the tribe. The distance was at least five. More than a hundred miles away, he knew that the Jin Clan could control metal, but he didn't expect that the Jin Clan could control metal from such a long distance.
"The three of us have been busy tempering this copper belt these past few days and have consumed a lot of gold energy. You must not underestimate it." Piqiu said seriously.
"I didn't underestimate it, I just didn't expect that the three heavenly masters were so powerful that they could perform magic hundreds of miles away." Wu Dongfang hurriedly turned around. Although Piqiu likes to claim credit and show off, he would not exaggerate. This belt must have cost a lot of money. They put a lot of effort into it.
No one doesn't like to hear good words. Piqiu's face brightened when he heard this, "It's not easy for us to do this, but you are our White Tiger Master. No matter what the cost, we must ensure your safety."
Wu Dongfang thanked him again, and then told Pi Qiu about the results of his discussions with Ming Yue in the past few days. Pi Qiu was the less scheming among the three heavenly masters of the Jin clan and the best at talking. He wanted to hear Pi Qiu's opinion on this matter. .
"We have also thought about it in the past few days. In a situation like yours, there is currently no Qi training method suitable for you. In the end, it is likely that you will have to learn from and integrate with the other four races. We will slowly find a way to do this. You can Don’t worry about it,” Piqiu said.
"Master Tian, thank you for your trouble." Wu Dongfang cupped his hands and thanked him.
"You are the third son-in-law and our White Tiger Heavenly Master. You don't need to be so polite when there are no outsiders." Piqiu waved his hand.
"Xi Bo." Wu Dongfang handed over his hand again.
Piqiu nodded with satisfaction, "Don't always hide in the hole when nothing happens. Walk around on your own territory, and don't avoid the villagers. The less you want them to see you, the more curious they will be."
Wu Dongfang nodded in agreement.
"Okay, you go to sleep, I'm going back." Pi Qiu turned around and walked out of the hole.
Wu Dongfang came out to see him off, and his rice pail also came out.
There is a moon tonight and it is not too dark. You can see that the ball did not return immediately after it took off. Instead, it circled around several times. The purpose of doing this is probably to observe the surrounding terrain and mountains for future reference. In the event of an accident, he can be safely pulled away. If the height is not determined, he may hit higher peaks during the pullback process.
It wasn't until the ball had gone far that Wu Dongfang returned to the cave. The three heavenly masters of the Jin tribe really protected and helped him in every possible way. In his heart, it was wrong to call them Mazhan Piqiu. From now on, he would have to call them Gubo and Xibo.
After getting this life-saving belt, he was completely relieved. He had never worried about his own safety. He was worried about Ming Yue. Ming Yue used to wear a mask and others could not see her appearance, so she was relatively safe. But ever since she took off her mask, perverts have come. Although Ming Zhen killed one, who can guarantee that there won't be another one in the future? How to deal with another one? This is what he has been worried about. Now this problem is finally no longer a problem. .
Early morning and evening are good times for hunting. Wu Dongfang got up early in the morning, took his bow and arrows and went out hunting. Fan Tong followed him dozens of steps, stopped following, and turned around to go back.
Wu Dongfang ran up to him, hugged him, and took him south. He couldn't always leave the rice pail in the cave, he had to let it get familiar with the outside environment.
After walking two or three miles, Wu Dongfang put the rice bucket down. At this time, the rice bucket could no longer see the cave, so he could only follow him forward, humming as he walked.
Hunting requires quietness and lurking, so bringing a food bucket with you won't bring much gain, but it's good to take it for exercise, which will help its digestion. However, Rice Tong was very lazy and didn't want to leave after just a few steps. However, it didn't dare to stay alone in the woods. Seeing that Wu Dongfang wasn't waiting for it, it had no choice but to trot after him.
I was unlucky and didn't catch any prey, so in the end I could only run to the river to catch a few fish and carry them. The fish at this time were less alert than modern fish, but they were much larger. As long as the refraction angle of the line of sight into the water was calculated accurately, It's easy to catch them.
Returning to the cave, I found Ming Yue coming.
After a few days of recuperating, he missed Ming Yue very much, but Ming Yue still had that serious and cold expression on her face, which made him dare not act rashly even though he wanted to get close to her.
Ming Yue came to deliver corn to him. After listening to his account of last night's events, she didn't stay too long and turned around to go down the mountain.
He didn't tell Ming Yue about the belt. If Ming Yue knew the function of the belt, she would definitely give in to him if there was a crisis.
"If you have nothing to do, just sit there for a while." Wu Dongfang shamelessly persuaded him to stay.
"Someone in the village was bitten by a poisonous snake and needs to be watched." Ming Yue did not stop or even look back.
"Give me the inner elixir that Black Bear gave me." Wu Dongfang shouted again.
Ming Yue turned around and walked back, handing him the purple inner elixir.
"How to use this thing?" Wu Dongfang asked.
"Just let it swallow it." Ming Yue turned and left.
Watching Ming Yue go away, Wu Dongfang sighed. There were many reasons for sighing, including the disappointment of Ming Yue leaving, the reflection that he always wanted to do bad things, and the helplessness of gender and personality differences. In today's words, It is said that Ming Yue belongs to the respectful type, while he belongs to the ungraceful type.
Soldiers like to exercise, mostly to vent their strong energy and physical strength. Since they can't learn spells for the time being, exercising has become the first choice. In their spare time, they wander around with a rice bucket. Although the rice bucket is a glutton, it is very smart and can listen. It understands his words and can even read his eyes. These may have something to do with it swallowing the inner elixir.
A month passed in the blink of an eye, and the weather turned colder. During this period, he only succeeded twice. I don't know if Ming Yue is very repulsive to this kind of thing, or if she thinks this is just fulfilling her obligation, and does it once every half month. Wu Dongfang was extremely depressed.
Perhaps out of confidentiality considerations, Ming Zhen and the others did not come again. Wu Dongfang just walked around every day. Occasionally he would catch larger prey and carry it to the village to eat and drink with the whole village, old and young. Regarding his behavior, Ming Yue He was opposed to it, thinking that he lacked the majesty that a wizard should have, but although he was dissatisfied, he could not control him. He had said it several times, but Wu Dongfang turned a deaf ear.
As time went by, Wu Dongfang discovered a pattern. If he showed serious hostility or resistance for a period of time, Ming Yue would stay with him for one night. If he behaved well, it would be the standard half month.
After discovering the pattern, Wu Dongfang did not stimulate and use this pattern, but was a little annoyed. This showed that Ming Yue only regarded this matter as an obligation to appease his emotions, and did not like it herself. Since the other party doesn't like it, the interest will drop by half.
Although his interest was half gone, he still couldn't help it after half a month. Only then did he realize that what Confucius said was really true. Food, sex, eating and being a gangster are all human nature. It is difficult to suppress it. The most important thing is that What's more, this person is his wife, and he has to suppress his wife, which is really depressing.
One day at noon, Mingwan came over and brought him a long-sleeved dress. Perhaps out of suspicion, Mingwan left in a hurry after the clothes were delivered to him. Before leaving, she told him not to tell others that she had sent it. clothing.
Watching Mingwan leave, Wu Dongfang felt a little regretful. He was originally a child from the countryside and didn't like women who looked after women all day long. If he had known this, he might as well have married Mingwan, who can cook and make clothes. Zhilengzhi The heat is good too.
It's okay to think about some things, but you can't actually put them into practice. Mingwan's man is very good to her, and I heard from the villagers that Mingwan has another wife.
Although there is no cold winter in the south, there are four seasons, and the temperature will get cooler in autumn and winter. During this period, he has been chasing a group of goats. There are more than a dozen goats in this group, living in the mountains northwest and due north of the village, where the terrain is very difficult. It is complex and has many cliffs. The goats are very alert and can detect danger in time every time and escape quickly with the help of those extremely steep cliffs.
The sun was about to go down. Wu Dongfang placed his last hope for the day on this group of goats. This group of goats had a very keen sense of smell. In order to prevent them from smelling the smell of the rice bucket, he left the rice bucket in the bushes in the distance. He carefully approached the cliff where the goats were. The cliff was in the shape of a horseshoe, with a rocky valley below. It was thirty or forty meters away from the top of the cliff. The grass he was hiding in was located due south. The goats were on the cliff due north. Eat grass.
Goats have a peculiar quirk. They will run wherever there is danger. They will not eat grass on the plains, but prefer to look for food on cliffs. The most important thing is that the grass on the cliffs is the same as that on the plains. They may feel that The harder something is to get, the better it is.
Wu Dongfang patiently watched the goats jumping around on the cliff. The current distance between the two sides was about 150 meters. He could now shoot a hundred meters with his bow. As long as a goat came into range, he would immediately release an arrow. , if you want to shoot the goat directly to death, the distance must not exceed fifty meters, but the goat is too alert, and it is likely to detect him within fifty meters. And this is a cliff. If you shoot the goats, they will fall to their death. The valley is not deep and has a certain slope. You can go down and pick up the goat that fell to death.
The leader sheep was the first to enter the shooting range. Wu Dongfang did not fire his arrow. When encountering a group of animals, he usually would not shoot the leader. First, they were often very large and difficult to kill. Secondly, they often have the task of protecting the population. If they are killed, the entire population will lose protection.
Behind the goat is a ewe with a big belly. Wu Dongfang has not yet fired his arrow.
Behind the ewe is another ram, smelling the ewe's scent obscenely, with an intoxicated expression.
It’s just you, the gangster!
Wu Dongfang bent his bow and fired quickly, and the bone arrow hit the ram's neck. The ram jumped in pain and fell directly from the cliff. The other goats were frightened, and led by the leader goat, they left the cliff and fled into the northern forest. .
Wu Dongfang carefully went down to the bottom of the valley. He walked around the bottom first to make sure there were no other animals dormant here. Then he returned to the goat. Seeing that the prey was dead, he retracted the bone arrow and carried the prey on his back to climb up.
The goat weighed more than sixty pounds, and it was very difficult to climb with it on his back. When he was halfway up, a sharp arrow hit his right hand that was grasping the stone wall...
