Just now, Bu Xiaotian could see that the tiger had developed spiritual wisdom and gained some Taoism.
Bu Xiaotian didn't want to commit any more crimes, so he withdrew his sword skills, sheathed his sword, and planned to leave.
Unexpectedly, just as Bu Xiaotian turned around, the tiger pounced again, planning to make a sneak attack.
If this happens, even with Bu Xiaotian's cultivation level, he will be seriously injured.
Just as the tiger was about to slap Bu Xiaotian in the back with a claw, there was only a flash of sword light, and the tiger's movements suddenly froze.
The huge body fell to the ground helplessly, and there was a bloody mark between the eyebrows and the back of the head, which looked like a sword had penetrated the head.
Bu Xiaotian turned around, looked at the dead tiger on the ground, sighed, and said:
"I wanted to let you live, but you are seeking death yourself!"
At this time, night has enveloped the earth, and a waning moon slowly rises from the east.
This is another place with no village or shop. It seems that Bu Xiaotian can only sleep in the wild.
He glanced at the dead tiger carcass on the ground, then looked around, and heard the faint sound of water not far away.
Bu Xiaotian picked up the tiger carcass and walked towards the direction where the sound of water came from.
Although the tiger is huge and weighs nearly a thousand kilograms, it is not a difficult task at all for Bu Xiaotian, who is an accomplished practitioner.
Pushing aside the trees blocking the way, I saw a small stream and even a large open space a little further upstream.
Throw the dead tiger in a clearing near a stream.
Bu Xiaotian picked up some dead branches from the forest and built a bonfire, then took out a half-foot-long dagger from his arms.
When he came down from the mountain, Cheng Yunliang had already told him that he might sleep in the wild. This dagger was exactly what he had prepared to cut up his prey when he came down from the mountain.
After all, it's really insulting to the magic sword to always use the 'ganjiang', one of the top ten magic swords, to do these things.
By the light of the fire, Bu Xiaotian gestured at the tiger's body with the dagger, as if he was considering where to start.
After a moment, Bu Xiaotian took the dagger and struck. Although the tiger had some cultivation and its fur was much tougher than ordinary beasts, Bu Xiaotian was not affected at all.
I saw Bu Xiaotian move quickly, and not long after, a complete tiger skin appeared in his hand.
After cleaning the peeled tiger skin in the stream, Bu Xiaotian took a dagger to cut off a tiger leg and disposed of it by the stream.
Then a clean wooden stick was passed through the tiger's leg and placed on the fire to bake.
While Bu Xiaotian was slowly turning the tiger leg meat on the fire, there was another rustling sound in the forest.
"who!"
Bu Xiaotian immediately picked up the long sword standing next to him and stood on guard in the direction of the sound.
There was another rustling sound, and a figure emerged from the forest. It was the black donkey that had sneaked into Xiaotian's footsteps on the mountain road.
"It turns out it's you, you dead ass!"
When Bu Xiaotian saw the black donkey coming, his face darkened:
"You just tricked me, and now you dare to come, aren't you afraid that I will kill you?"
After saying that, he deliberately shook the sword in his hand at the black donkey.
The black donkey seemed to understand Bu Xiaotian's words, and glanced at the long sword in Bu Xiaotian's hand with some fear.
But he did not leave, but cautiously approached Bu Xiaotian step by step.
Until he was only a few steps away from Bu Xiaotian, the black donkey opened his mouth and spat something out towards Bu Xiaotian.
Bu Xiaotian was startled, thinking that it was going to attack him again, so he quickly dodged to the side.
The thing spit out by the black donkey fell next to Bu Xiaotian. By the light of the fire, Bu Xiaotian could vaguely see that it was a plant, and then he realized that the black donkey had no intention of sneaking up on him.
He picked up the plant that fell at his feet and took a closer look. He saw that the plant was very complete. With the roots, branches and leaves, it was almost as long as Bu Xiaotian's arm. It looked very similar to a ginseng.
It's just that there are only nine leaves on its branches, and the rhizomes are faintly purple.
Bu Xiaotian recognized this plant and was very surprised. It was a nine-leaf purple ginseng!
This nine-leaf purple ginseng is extremely precious. Although it is not said to be able to revive human flesh and bones, it is still the best among ginsengs.
The effectiveness of the century-old nine-leaf purple ginseng is comparable to that of the thousand-year-old ginseng. Judging from the size of this nine-leaf purple ginseng, it is probably at least several thousand years old, not to mention its preciousness!
The nine-leaf purple ginseng in hand is considered to be the best elixir. It is of great benefit to the cultivation of monsters. There must be monsters guarding nearby.
Thinking of the way the tiger was chasing the black donkey, Bu Xiaotian had already roughly guessed the whole story.
This nine-leaf purple ginseng should be something to assist the tiger in his cultivation, but somehow it was stolen by the black donkey. The tiger naturally refused to let go of this guy who dared to steal his treasure.
So he chased and ran away, but he happened to run into himself.
And the black donkey probably hid the nine-leaf purple ginseng before he met him. When the tiger saw him and saw that the purple ginseng was no longer with the black donkey, he thought he had robbed the purple ginseng, and then he knew that he was losing. In this case, they have to sneak attack on themselves.
After figuring out the whole story, Bu Xiaotian smiled bitterly, glanced at the black donkey again, and said:
"I'm taking the blame for you! Since you gave me this purple ginseng, I won't care about your sneak attack on me earlier."
Hearing Bu Xiaotian's words, the black donkey hummed happily and knelt down next to the fire, seemingly not planning to leave.
Bu Xiaotian didn't care about it anymore. Nine-leaf purple ginseng was not easy to preserve. If it took a long time, the medicinal properties would fade a lot.
During these years in the mountains, Bu Xiaotian also learned a lot of medical skills and pharmacology from his second senior brother. For a while, there was no better way to deal with this purple ginseng. The only way to do it was to use the true energy to refine it into a ginseng pill. Ensure that its medicinal properties are not lost.
Bu Xiaotian immediately sat down cross-legged, put the purple ginseng in his hands, closed his eyes and circulated his true energy to start refining the medicine.
When Bu Xiaotian opened his eyes again, the purple ginseng root that was more than a foot long in his hand had disappeared, leaving only a branch with nine ginseng leaves and a pill the size of a broad bean.
He took out a small porcelain vase from the baggage beside him and put the ginseng root in it. The branches were carefully wrapped in medicinal paper and put into the baggage. Only then did he remember that there was a tiger leg roasting on the bonfire.
When he looked up, there was nothing above the campfire. Was there any sign of barbecue there?
Suddenly, I heard the sound of gnawing next to me. I turned around and saw the black donkey lying on the ground like a dog, with a big bone between its two front legs. It was not the tiger leg that I roasted.
It's just that the meat on it is gone, and the black donkey is stretching out his big tongue to lick the remaining shreds of meat on it.
As if aware that Bu Xiaotian was looking at it, the black donkey suddenly stopped, looked at Bu Xiaotian guiltily, and muttered "uh huh huh" lowly a few times, as if admitting his mistake.
But looking at its rolling eyes, how could it mean that it was admitting its mistake?
"I never thought you were a meat-eater!"
Bu Xiaotian couldn't get angry at the black donkey. After all, he had just been given a piece of purple ginseng as a gift. He shook his head, walked to the stream, cut off a tiger leg, and disposed of it.
This time the black donkey also ran over, pulling the remaining two tiger legs with one hoof, and hummed at Bu Xiaotian.
Bu Xiaotian immediately understood what Hei Lu meant. This guy hadn't had enough of love, and he still wanted to eat it? !
Bu Xiaotian looked at the huge tiger legs, then at the black donkey, and said with some doubt:
"Can you eat so much?"
Even so, his men cut off the other two tiger legs and disposed of them together, and then made a bigger rack for barbecue.
While turning and roasting, he took out a packet of salt from the bag and sprinkled some on it. After a while, the aroma of meat filled the air.
The black donkey's saliva had already flowed all over the floor like a dam had burst, and his eyes were fixed on the barbecue on the shelf.
Seeing Hei Donkey's greedy look, Bu Xiaotian was also a little hungry.
Soon the meat on the shelf was cooked, and everyone started to feast on it.
Although Bu Xiaotian was already very hungry, it was impossible to eat the entire tiger leg. He only used a dagger to cut off a few pieces of meat from the top and was full.
I turned around and looked at the black donkey, what a guy!
The black donkey had almost eaten the two tiger legs and was looking eagerly at the remaining tiger leg meat in front of him.
Counting the first one he ate, he had already eaten three tiger legs. It looked like he wasn't full yet, and his belly didn't even look bulging.
If it hadn't been right next to Bu Xiaotian, he would have doubted whether this guy had hidden the meat!
Shaking his head, Bu Xiaotian threw the remaining tiger legs in front of him to the black donkey. The black donkey was not polite. He hummed happily and lowered his head to concentrate on the barbecue in front of him.
Bu Xiaotian looked at the remaining tiger meat by the stream not far away and felt a little pity. He suddenly thought that the dry food he had brought was almost finished, so he simply got up and went to the stream to cut off some tiger meat and cut it into palm-sized pieces. The sliced meat was cleaned in the stream and then placed on the shelf to be made into barbecue and used as dry food.
Seeing that the black donkey who had finished the last tiger leg turned his attention to the tiger meat on the shelf, Bu Xiaotian finally couldn't help but said:
"Aren't you full yet? This is my dry food for the next period of time, so don't bother with them!"
Hearing the words, Hei Donkey glanced at Bu Xiaotian. As expected, he stopped staring at the barbecue and licked the big bones in front of him clean. He hummed a few times and put a few bones under his head and stared at the fire. I started to stay silent, and soon started to snore.
Is this a dog or a donkey?
It was already late at night when Bu Xiaotian finished his work. After packing up his things, he added a few thicker logs to the fire, then lay beside the fire and looked at the waning moon in the sky and a few stars with faint fluorescent lights. .
Perhaps because the black donkey's snoring was too loud, Bu Xiaotian didn't feel sleepy and could not help but recall everything in the past.
From the mountain village where he had lived with his mother for as long as he could remember, to that terrifying night, to entering the Yuxu Sect to practice, to reshaping the Sanjiao Profound Pass, until today when he met the Black Donkey.
He thought of many people, the gentle and beautiful mother, the simple and kind-hearted villagers, the devil-like man in black, the master who was always drunk, the senior brothers who took care of him, the fair and gentle senior sister Lan Yunxin, The quirky Mo Li, the lively and cute Yun Ying...
Bu Xiaotian didn't know when he fell asleep. When he woke up, it was already bright and the fire had been extinguished. The black donkey didn't know where he ran. Bu Xiaotian simply washed himself by the stream. After a while, he picked up his baggage, took his sword, walked back to the path, and continued walking along the path.
After walking for a while, Bu Xiaotian suddenly heard the sound of hoofbeats behind him, accompanied by a few donkey brays. He turned around and found that the black donkey he met yesterday was chasing after him.
"You want to come with me?"
When the black donkey came to Bu Xiaotian and took the hem of his clothes in its mouth, Bu Xiaotian asked.
"Hmm~"
The black donkey nodded its huge donkey head.
