A big stick sweeps across the wilderness

The sun was shining brightly and there were no clouds in the sky.

The autumn wind carries the fragrance of wormwood and passes quietly among the branches and leaves.

The Grasshopper chirped tirelessly.

Fang Yuan and Jiang Yu walked through the trees one after the other.

The catwalk underfoot has been completely obscured by weeds.

One step is deep and the other is shallow.

"It would be nice if I brought two house slaves out."

Fang Yuan was carrying a huge thorn on his back, and his arms were scratched with blood from the thorns.

Sweat flowed through, itching and hurting.

Jiang Yu, however, acted particularly contented.

There is a straw in the mouth.

Hang the straw sandals on both sides of your neck and walk with bare feet.

"You have completed your coming-of-age ceremony, and you have to learn to be self-reliant. Two more people means two more mouths. You still have to hunt on the way."

As Jiang Yu spoke, he raised his head and sniffed the air a few times: "Well, there is a rabbit hole near here."

Fang Yuan quickly stopped: "This is other people's territory. Hunting will cause disputes."

Man and beast alike. All have fixed hunting grounds.

Hunting on someone else's territory is tantamount to stealing.

However, Jiang Yu still asked: "What if the wild beast attacks us?"

"How is that possible? The large beasts have been cleaned up long ago..."

Fang Yuan was only halfway through his words when his voice suddenly stopped.

Suddenly, a large gray wolf about half a man tall poked its head out from behind the bushes. Just met his eyes.

This is a wounded lone wolf!

There was bloodlust and cruelty in his eyes.

Fang Yuan had a psychological shadow on wolves. At this time, his legs were nailed to the ground, and his teeth were chattering: "What should I do?"

Jiang Yu smacked his lips: "Didn't you say you can't hunt? And this wolf is too old. The meat is very hard."

"Ah……"

The lone wolf bared its sharp fangs towards Fang Yuan and roared from his throat.

Pretending to pounce.

Jiang Yu reminded calmly: "Don't stare into its eyes. That's a provocation to it!"

Fang Yuan almost cried.

He didn't want to stare at the lone wolf either. But I couldn't move my eyes away at all.

The voice was almost squeezed out from between the teeth: "Help, help me!"

Jiang Yu took the wooden stick from his back and waved it in front of him.

"Crack!"

A small tree as thick as a bowl was smashed in half.

The lone wolf was frightened and ran away.

"Shuashua" was heard twice and then there was no movement.

Jiang Yu seemed to have done a trivial thing. He carried the stick behind his back and covered it with his long hair: "A lone wolf is more ferocious than a pack of wolves, but also more cautious. You just need to show that you are not easy to mess with."

Fang Yuan supported Xiao Shu and sat on the ground, clenching his fists and beating his thighs: "That's easy to say. Do you think anyone has your strange power?"

As he spoke, he looked at Jiang Yu with piercing eyes: "Dad said that Ghost Yulin is a Jedi. No one can come out of it. How did you do it? What is in Ghost Yulin?"

Jiang Yu spat out the straw and looked in the direction where the lone wolf left: "Trees, insects, wild beasts. It's no different from here. It's just easier to get lost."

Fang Yuan was already familiar with Jiang Yu. He asked bluntly: "There are no people in your village?"

"Ah."

Jiang Yu did not shy away from this topic: "People who get lost in Ghost Yulin will eventually go to the same place. Over time, it becomes a village. My father and I are the only human race."

Fang Yuan's fright has eased a lot. He asked curiously: "What do they look like? Do they eat people? Oh, no. If you eat people, you wouldn't be standing here. Then how did you leave Gui Yulin?"

Jiang Yu sat side by side with him and took off the wooden stick from behind. Pointing to the pattern on the top of the handle: "When you get lost, just walk in this direction."

Hearing this, Fang Yuan stretched out his head to look at the stick.

The stick is bigger at one end and smaller at the other.

The shape is a bit like a chicken leg.

The milky white surface is covered with fine purple lines.

The thin end can be held with both hands.

This weapon is common in hunting parties.

But if you look closely, you will find that the texture of the wooden stick is completely natural. There are no traces of artificial carving at all.

Fang Yuan reached out to grab the stick, but failed to lift it even with all his strength.

Surprised: "What kind of wood is this? Why is it so heavy?"

Jiang Yu was amused by his appearance and laughed loudly: "I don't know either. Dad said this is a seed. It doesn't weigh much when I hold it. But if it falls into other people's hands, not even the Demon King can lift it."

Fang Yuan still doesn’t believe in evil.

After trying hard for a long time, the wooden stick didn't move at all.

He could only give up and said: "You are carrying this thing all day long, are you exercising your strength?"

Jiang Yu picked up the wooden stick and tossed it around in his hand. Catching it easily: "It's easy to hunt with, and it can also guide the direction. My dad also has one."

Fang Yuan began to think about Jiang Yu's past: "Those villagers drove you out of the village because they wanted to follow you out of Gui Yulin, right?"

Jiang Yu shrugged: "I thought so too at first. But they followed me for a long time and then went back. Maybe they just escorted me for a while."

Fang Yuan looked at Jiang Yu suspiciously.

The more you get along with him, the more mysterious you feel.

Seeing him playing with the wooden stick as if it was nothing, his tone was a little sour: "You are not of the blood of the Witch Clan, are you? It is said that there are giants in the Witch Clan who are powerful and powerful."

Jiang Yu put the wooden stick behind him and reminded in a low voice: "Someone is coming."

"It should be the hunting team from Heather Village. If we don't move, they won't hurt us."

Fang Yuan acted very calmly when facing humans: "I didn't hear any movement. Your perception is so powerful."

Jiang Yu did not let down his guard because of his words: "The relationship between the hunter and the prey depends on who discovers the other first."

Soon, there was a slight shaking from behind a bush.

Then a dozen hunters wearing animal skins emerged.

They all held bows and arrows and throwing spears in their hands, and their steps were light.

After a few steps, he jumped forward.

Surround the two of them.

Fang Yuan looked quite like a young master at this moment.

He stood up and directly identified himself: "I am the third son of the leader of Li Village. I am going to the tribe to participate in the clan hunt."

A bearded middle-aged man walked out from the opposite side.

He saw that the two of them were wearing commoners. He had no hunting tools with him. It certainly doesn't look like poaching.

Just when he looked at Jiang Yu, his eyebrows were raised slightly. Shen Sheng reminded: "You'd better leave quickly. There is an old wolf nearby, and we have been tracking it for two days."

Fang Yuan remembered the look in the wolf's eyes and immediately couldn't stay any longer. He put the wooden basket on his back and pulled Jiang Yu away: "Let's go."

"Ok!"

Jiang Yu had no intention of being polite to these people and slowly left behind Fang Yuan.

Never let down our guard against these hunters.

There was muffled discussion behind him.

"Who is the young master? Why do you let the patriarch's son carry a basket?"

"That big man obviously has shoes, why don't he wear them?"

"Is it already the day to sign up for the clan hunt? Tell the clan leader when you get back, and I'll send my son there too."

"Shut up, everyone. Have you found the wolf trace?"

"Here he was just now! Running north."

"Those two boys are really lucky..."

Jiang Yu walked far away and could still hear the voices behind him.

Shaking his head slightly.

Those people must have no problem hunting ordinary beasts. But catching a cunning lone wolf may not be that easy.

The wolf's eyes were full of wisdom.

I'm afraid it's not far from turning into a demon.

Thinking of those people's discussions, I suddenly asked: "Can I learn witchcraft only by participating in clan hunting?"

Fang Yuan's thoughts were in the dense forest. I felt that the old wolf was looking at me everywhere.

He replied absently: "You can only learn basic witchcraft through totem recognition. But you have to join the Lilu tribe first."

Jiang Yu did not object to joining the tribe: "Whether you can learn it depends on your qualifications, right?"

Fang Yuan's attention was not focused on this issue at all.

Eyes darting around: "Tell me, is that wolf still following us? I always have a feeling of embarrassment in my heart."

As he was talking, his feet slipped. He nearly rolled into a ditch on the roadside.

Jiang Yu grabbed the wooden basket with quick hands and eyes, and carried Fang Yuan back: "You are so brave...you should be able to live a long life, right? Don't worry, the wolf has gone away with the hunting team."

Fang Yuan laughed awkwardly: "Ah? Is that so? Haha..."
