In the misty forest, the students from Ivy College who were out for practice lined up in a long, snake-shaped queue and marched towards the first stop, Nanqian Mountain.
"We are still in a very peripheral position now, and there is almost no danger until we reach Nanqian Mountain." Li Yuan said, wanting to ease everyone's nervousness.
"But this fog is really uncomfortable." Tang Hao wanted to disperse the surrounding fog with his hands.
Because fog can hinder the five senses and six senses, making most students who enter the mountains and forests for the first time even more uncomfortable.
"Keep on holding on, we'll reach Baishui River soon, and you can rest there." Tang Yuyan said.
Because of the evil spirit, Changsun felt no discomfort in the foggy forest. At this time, the evil spirit that had been dormant for a long time became active, constantly preying on the mist absorbed into the body.
"We meet again, classmate Lu."
Lin Yue'er didn't know when she fell from the front of the team to the front of Zhang Sun and others. She saw Lu Xiao and said hello.
Lu Xiaoran had no choice but to meet Lin Yuer many times in the past six months, but no matter how Lu Xiaoran tried to persuade her, Lin Yuer never changed her name to "Classmate Lu".
Alongside Lin Yue'er are Wan Minglang, Cao Mingyu, Ouyang Ning and Chen Cai. It seems that a few people who performed well in the opening examination formed a small team.
Wan Minglang snorted coldly when he saw his eldest grandson. Although Cao Mingyu on the side looked more cultivated, he was also a little unnatural.
Chen Cai nodded to Changsun, because Changsun helped him once in the trial tower and got to know him.
Changsun also nodded in response.
At noon, the team was about to arrive at Baishui River, where everyone would rest and adjust at noon.
Changsun suddenly stopped, waved his hand to signal the others to stop, and then lay down on the ground.
"Be careful, there is a situation ahead." Changsun stood ready.
At this time, several people around him also felt the vibrations coming from the ground, and they all prepared for battle.
At the front of the team, the Baishui River could be seen as far as the eye could see, but suddenly an armored rhinoceros burst out of the forest.
As a first-level spiritual beast, the Armored Rhino is famous for the sharp horns on its head and the extremely defensive armor on its back. Its excellent defense makes many second-level spiritual beasts helpless.
The armored rhino charging with all its strength was so shocking that the students at the front of the team panicked.
At this moment, a figure suddenly rushed out of the team and rushed towards the armored rhinoceros.
"It's Tan Shuanghu!"
Someone in the team exclaimed.
Tan Shuanghu, who was flying towards the armored rhinoceros, was actually on all fours, and at the same time his body was lit up with zhenqi armor. Different from the zhenqi armor of ordinary warriors, Tan Shuanghu's zhenqi armor turned into a tiger and enveloped him.
Tan Shuanghu, who transformed into a tiger, jumped up and grabbed the armored rhino's neck and back with his claws like a tiger pouncing on food, but only left a few white marks on the armor.
The agitated armored rhinoceros suddenly stopped, raised its head and threw Tan Shuanghu away.
When the armored rhinoceros saw the human provoking him in front of him, he angrily blew out a stream of hot air from his nostrils, stamped his forelimbs on the ground, and rushed towards Tan Shuanghu again.
Everyone felt a violent vibration on the ground, and Tan Shuanghu who rushed in front felt it even more strongly.
"Wang Chuang, here comes the sword!" Tan Shuanghu shouted violently.
As Tan Shuanghu shouted violently, two long and narrow straight knives were thrown from the team. Tan Shuanghu jumped up to catch the two knives. After landing, he suddenly exerted force, and the two knives met the sharp horns of the armored rhinoceros.
Tan Shuanghu did not confront him head-on, but retreated at the first touch. At the same time, he made a gorgeous spin in the air and landed behind the armored rhinoceros.
Tan Shuanghu didn't stop at all after landing, catching up with the armored rhinoceros from behind, and at the same time, he released his true energy to wrap up his double swords.
Tan Shuanghu, who was galloping, lay down on his back and used his inertia to get under the armored rhino's belly. His two knives drew two bloody marks on its abdomen. When it reached its heart, the two knives rotated and crushed its heart, killing it.
Tan Shuanghu stood up, spat, and said, "The armor of this armored rhinoceros is really hard."
Wang Chuang walked out of the team and mocked: "Only a stupid tiger like you would choose to tear apart an armored rhinoceros with your hands."
Tan Shuanghu snorted coldly: "Humph, it's not like you just made a knife for me and took your time."
The two swords in Tan Shuanghu's hands were refined by Wang Chuang using the materials along the way after entering the deep foggy forest. It can be seen that Wang Chuang, who is equipped with the Ice Heart Blue Flame, has extremely high weapon refining ability.
At this time, Zhang Su also walked out of the team and squatted next to the armored rhinoceros to observe its body.
When Tan Shuanghu saw this, he said carelessly: "The armor on this beast's back is strong, but the defense on its abdomen is not strong. It can be solved with two swords."
Zhang Su stood up and said: "The armored rhino has a gentle temperament and rarely attacks people. Moreover, they live in groups. It is strange to see a lone armored rhinoceros here at this time."
The team also gathered around to observe the dead armored rhinoceros. The team teacher, a middle-aged warrior warrior named Yu Lei, also stepped forward.
Zhang Su saluted properly, Yu Lei looked at Tan Shuanghu, and Wang Chuang and Zhang Su nodded with satisfaction. Whether it was Tan Shuanghu's crisp attack just now, Wang Chuang's talent in weapon refining, or Zhang Su's calm and cautious analysis in the end, it all marked They are the best among all.
Yu Lei looked at the armored rhinoceros lying on the ground, and then at the Baishui River not far away, and said, "It is probably a lone armored rhinoceros that noticed us while drinking water and was frightened and attacked us. .”
The students nodded one after another to express their approval, and at the same time they felt less nervous.
"Okay, let's move on and rest when we reach Baishui River." Yu Lei said.
The team moved forward again, and Changsun and others also moved from the middle to the back of the team, because at this time, Changsun was still observing the armored rhinoceros on the ground.
Changsun opened the armored rhino's eyes and looked at it, and then looked at Tan Shuanghu's fatal blow to its heart.
After doing this, Changsun actually touched the chest of the armored rhinoceros, and then opened its lower limbs to look at its lower body.
Mo Yushan on the side couldn't stand it anymore and opened his mouth: "Changsun, why are you so perverted? You... what are you looking at!"
The eldest grandson stood up and replied: "This is a female rhinoceros."
"Do you need to do this to identify its male and female?" Mo Yushan asked.
The other people didn't react as strongly as Mo Yushan, but they also looked at Changsun with puzzled faces.
Changsun continued: "We were suddenly attacked by a lone armored rhinoceros here, which was a bit strange."
"Didn't the teacher explain it just now? Maybe it was frightened by so many of us, so it attacked us." Mo Yushan said.
"The eyes of this armored rhinoceros are bloodshot. It must have gone crazy before the battle. The noise caused by our march will not make it so violent." Changsun said.
"Its eyes are red and it may be caused by the fight just now." Tang Yuyan said.
"Tan Shuanghu's fight with it didn't last long, and the final blow to crush its heart was crisp and clean. If Tan Shuanghu had shattered its heart, the bloodshot eyes might have been caused by the fight. But its heart was crushed. , and it is extremely accurate, so this cannot be the reason. Also, I just touched its chest and found that it was very hard, and there was some secretion around... I speculated that the reason for its restlessness should be that it was in heat." The eldest grandson took care of Tang Yuyan and the others. Without saying any words, he pointed to the lower part of the armored rhinoceros.
Only then did everyone understand the strange behavior of the eldest grandson just now.
Mo Yushan was confused after hearing this.
"Changsun, you even understand these things."
Changsun did not speak, but continued: "But according to my past experience in the jungle, it should not be in estrus at this time."
"You mean it could be man-made?" Siqin asked.
The eldest grandson nodded.
"Changsun, is it possible that you are overthinking? Spiritual beasts may have different estrus periods in different forests, and there are these strange fogs in the misty forest, which may have an impact," Tang Hao said.
The eldest grandson was not sure whether his judgment was correct or not, but because of his always cautious character, he thought a lot more.
The eldest grandson said: "What you said is possible, but your status is too special, so I have to be careful."
Everyone nodded. What the eldest grandson said made sense, and there was also Siqin in his team. He had heard the eldest grandson and his two men talk about the thrilling experience on the way from Qingshan to Lieyang City.
Changsun and others walked at the back of the team and arrived at Baishui River. To be cautious, they found Yu Lei and reported the abnormal situation they discovered.
Yu Lei was talking to Tan Shuanghu and the other three, and he hesitated after hearing Changsun's discovery.
Tan Shuanghu looked at his eldest grandson. He had heard about his eldest grandson's performance in the hospital opening examination before. Now he saw that his eldest grandson had itchy hands and wanted to compete.
Tan Shuanghu said with some suspicion: "Changsun, what you said are all your guesses."
The eldest grandson nodded.
"You're scared based on just guessing. Aren't you a little too timid?" Tan Shuanghu laughed.
Before Changsun could speak, Zhang Su on the side said: "Shuanghu, now is not the time for you to look for trouble. Any accident can happen in the wild. Besides, we also have classmate Si Qin in our team. I think it is not appropriate for Changsun to be more cautious." It’s too much.”
Tan Shuanghu and Zhang Su have a very good relationship in private. After Zhang Su opened his mouth, Tan Shuanghu also said carelessly: "That eldest grandson really has itchy hands at the next moment and wants to discuss with you. Don't mind. We will meet again after the outing practice is over. Make an appointment."
Changsun clasped his fists, not taking Tan Shuanghu's provocation at ease.
Yu Lei also seemed hesitant because of the presence of Siqin in the team.
In the end, Yu Lei decided not to make any announcements for the time being, so as not to cause panic to everyone, and wait until Nanqian Mountain to discuss the matter.
In order to reach Nanqian Mountain as soon as possible, the team took a brief rest at Baishui River before continuing forward.
However, after Tan Shuanghu killed the armored rhinoceros, the tension of the team was reduced a bit, and the team moved significantly faster. They arrived at Nanqian Mountain before dusk.
