Soon, dozens of gene store stronghold towns under the mountains around Shenlongjia knew the news, and they were looking out for a giant eagle and a man using a bow and arrow.
In addition, a flying team of 100 people sent by Zhong Cailing also began to fly along the periphery of the Shenlongjia Mountains to detect Yang Xiao's whereabouts.
However, at this time, Yang Xiao, Monk Ben Yin and the giant eagle had advanced dozens of kilometers deep into the mountains of Shenlongjia, killing mutated giant beasts along the way.
"Yang Xiao, it's getting dark. Where should we spend the night?"
"Of course we spent the night in the mountains. This area is still on the outskirts of Shenlongjia. Most of the mutated monsters are at the advanced level of the original gene and the elementary level of the enhanced gene. Our giant eagle itself is an intermediate level of enhanced gene, which is close to the advanced level. It will be there at night. , ordinary monsters don’t dare to come close, so we can sleep peacefully.”
"Having said that, if we encounter swarms of mutated monsters, such as wasps, wolves, or high-level monsters, we would be a little uncomfortable at night."
"What you said makes sense. It's still early in the morning, so let's look around to see if there are any caves or the like. Just let the giant eagle guard the entrance of the cave at night."
"Well, that's a good idea."
So the two began to pay attention to whether there were any natural caves nearby. After searching for a long time, they only found a depression about three meters deep, surrounded by hard rocks and without much vegetation.
In front of the cave is hundreds of square meters of flat land.
"Senior Brother Benyin, I think we can rest here tonight. It is a cave after all. We can light a bonfire in front of the cave at night and we should be able to spend the night."
Ben looked at how late it was and nodded.
Since they decided to spend the night again, the two quickly cut down a few large trees as thick as a bowl nearby and dragged the branches and leaves over.
Cut the branches and trunks into about one meter and pile them all near the hollow.
The sun had already set by this time, and the night slowly began to draw curtains.
The two lit a bonfire at the entrance of the cave. Yang Xiao took out a wild boar weighing several thousand kilograms from the space ring and chopped off a pig's thigh with his sword.
The meat of the pork thigh is at least 200 kilograms.
Yang Xiao threw the rest of the wild boar to the giant eagle. The giant eagle roared with joy and began to bite the wild boar with all its strength.
This wild boar is a ferocious beast with enhanced genes, and it can also be regarded as supplementing some energy for genetic evolution.
Yang Xiao and Ben Yin began to cut off the pork with their swords, grilled the pieces on the bonfire, sprinkled them with salt and chili powder, and ate them.
Feeling that it was not enough, Yang Xiao took out another bag of spicy fish fillets and shared them with Ben Yin.
Seeing Monk Benyin eating with gusto, Yang Xiao suddenly said:
"You broke the precept, don't you feel guilty in your heart?"
Ben Yin was about to tear into this large piece of barbecue when he heard Yang Xiao suddenly say this and looked at Yang Xiao angrily.
"You have to be kind, so you can't not raise this issue when I eat meat? Are you trying to disgust me?"
Yang Xiao smiled and said:
"You can't live without wine without meat, why don't we take a sip?"
"Okay, that's pretty much it!"
Yang Xiao took out the Maotai liquor that Zhou Qiang had given him from the space ring, opened the bottle cap, and a smell of soy sauce immediately came out. Ben Yin hadn't drank it yet, but after just smelling it, he couldn't stand it anymore, so he grabbed the bottle, Gulu took a big gulp and sighed.
"Ah, this is life!"
"Of course, there is wine, meat, and friends. There is nothing better than this in the world. Alas, I say you shouldn't become a monk. You might as well go back and become a secular person. You can also marry a beautiful woman and enjoy the happiness of the world. "
After hearing this, monk Benyin was silent for a moment and said:
"Since I have pledged myself to the Buddha in this life, I will not consider returning to secular life. Eating meat and drinking alcohol is not a big deal.
The Buddha said that he sat in his heart while wine and meat passed through his intestines. As long as you are dedicated to kindness, willing to help others, and have a kind heart, you are a disciple of Buddhism. Otherwise, Buddhism would not have so many lay disciples. "
Yang Xiao nodded and said:
"Okay, then I'll toast you again."
Ben took the bottle, took another big sip, and suddenly said with infinite reluctance:
"Forget it, just drink here today, otherwise, you will drink it all. When you want to take a sip in the future, it will be gone. That feeling will be too uncomfortable."
Yang Xiao didn't have much obsession with wine, so he immediately smiled, screwed on the wine bottle, and put the wine into the space ring.
The two of them sat around the campfire, eating meat and chatting. The pork leg had too much meat. The two of them only ate more than twenty kilograms before they couldn't eat it anymore.
Yang Xiao put the remaining pig legs into the space ring and prepared to save them for breakfast tomorrow.
Monk Benyin looked at the ring on Yang Xiao's finger and said:
"This thing is really good, but it's too expensive. Otherwise, I would buy one too."
"Maybe it was expensive in the past, but now one million crystal coins is not a big deal. It's just that we don't have space rings for sale in Shashi for the time being. When I go back, I will entrust Gubo to buy ten space rings. By then, everyone will have one, It will be easier to carry things in the future.”
"Well, you can have this. It's good to still follow the local tyrants. When we were at the Shaolin Temple in Songshan, resources were really tight."
There are only more than a hundred people in Shaolin Temple. Even if they all go out to hunt monsters, they can't compare with Yang Xiao who now has six cities with a population of more than one million. There is simply a difference between heaven and earth.
The two chatted for a while, then sat in the cave to get ready for sleep. The giant eagle outside had already eaten the thousands-jin wild boar and was squatting a few meters away from the entrance of the cave to rest.
"Senior brother Benyin, you rest while I practice for a while."
Ben nodded and said:
"Meditate too."
As he spoke, he closed his eyes slightly and began to enter the cultivation state.
Yang Xiao took out the small black bottle, which contained the liquid from the corpses of more than a dozen monsters that he had killed today. He immediately put it to his mouth and took a sip, feeling a slight flu in his body.
After all, the monster corpses hunted today were not of high level. There were at least five or six monsters with low-level enhanced genes, and the rest were with high-level original genes.
Yang Xiao immediately raised his head and drank all the liquid in the bottle. The flu in his body immediately increased a lot.
Yang Xiao closed his eyes slightly and began to practice the Yi Jin Jing.
The bonfire at the entrance of the cave was still burning, and the dim firelight swayed slightly, looking very dazzling in the dark night deep in the mountains.
At this moment, in the forest a thousand meters away from the cave, there was a pair of big blue eyes. It was staring at the fire outside the cave. It had been observing Yang Xiao and others for a long time.
In the darkness, it slowly moved its body and walked forward slowly.
The fire at the entrance of the cave has a strong attraction to it, which it longs for extremely.
Yang Xiao's senses are very sharp and he can sense movements hundreds of meters away. The giant eagle outside the cave is even more powerful. Even the movements of animals thousands of meters away cannot escape its eyes and hearing.
When the pair of blue eyes in the darkness tried to take a few steps closer to observe the fire at the entrance of the concave hole, the giant eagle suddenly raised its head and called out in alarm.
"Well--"
