The next day, when Shen Xiu rushed to a run-down inn in the town, Cao Hongzhuo and others were already ready to go.
Chen Xiu paid attention to the team. There were eight people in total. Except for him and the fat man Cao Hongzhuo who invited him yesterday, the others were all thirty-four-year-old adult men.
The appearance of Shen Xiu, who was relatively young, immediately attracted the probing eyes of those people.
Sifang Pharmacy hunted the black demon bear this time mainly to obtain the vertebrae of the black demon bear.
Its spine is not only an expensive weapon refining material, but also the main ingredient for making some important elixirs.
There are also some bear bile, bear blood and so on.
It is very popular in the hands of some alchemists in Shanglin City.
In view of the Black Demon Bear's strength and special position, the people we are looking for this time must not be too weak.
The warriors who have not yet entered the country will have no effect, and can even be a hindrance. The body training realm is already considered the lowest.
Shen Xiuneng appears here, he is obviously a warrior who has entered the realm, the lowest is the body training realm, but this is rare at this age.
However, these old people knew a lot, so they just took a casual look and went about their own business.
After waiting outside the house for a while, a middle-aged man dressed in smart clothes and with a cold face walked out of the inn.
The man had no expression on his face, looked around and then said, "I am the team leader this time, Director Chen. Everyone has learned that our purpose of Sifang Medicine Shop this time is to hunt the black demon bear.
A few days ago, our Sifang Medicine Shop discovered a gathering place of black demon bears at the end of the dark forest in the west of the town. I hope everyone will work together this time and not take it lightly. "
As he spoke, his eyes finally lingered on Shen Xiu for a while. This was the helper that the young boss had just found.
Cao Hongzhuo once told him about the boy's strength, but he did not dispel his doubts.
He admitted that the opponent might have good strength, but he doubted whether the opponent had enough experience. Killing the black demon bear that was as hard as iron required more than just slashing with a knife.
But if the other party can use such a good knife, then he must have something to rely on.
Chen Xiu was speechless, just wiping the Baideng knife in his hand and practicing his hand.
At this moment, many people cast their gazes over with envy.
A good knife is like a second life to a swordsman, and it is more attractive than the people in the kiln who need their help.
Because everyone else around them had ordinary broadsword weapons, that is, the leaders of Sifang Medicine Shop, the weapons in their hands seemed to be much better, and the others could only use ten-forged knives.
Director Chen, the leader of Sifang Pharmacy, gave some final warnings, and then the group of people packed up and set off, heading straight to the west of the town.
Cao Hongzhuo was also among them, holding a slender machete. His body proportions were quite round, but his movements were relatively flexible, and his appearance was quite funny.
Chen Xiu found that the other person's eyes were even more excited than him.
A group of people left the town, crossed a shoal to the west, and gradually disappeared into a jungle. The road ahead gradually became more varied and difficult to walk.
During this section of the road, a group of people lost their previous idle mentality and gradually began to be wary of their surroundings.
Because shopkeeper Cao said that this time he entered a black demon bear stronghold. There must be at least eight or nine black demon bears inside. If he is not careful, he may overturn.
Although it is still some distance away from the expected Hades Valley, who knows if there will be another situation.
Compared with the vigilance of others, Shen Xiu gradually became excited in his heart.
To him, those are not small coins, but a pile of walking satiety and a pile of skyrocketing proficiency.
The crowds gradually deepened, and the roads that were large enough for the crowds to pass became narrow and overgrown with weeds. The ground was covered under thick branches and leaves, making it unclear.
The sky seemed to be getting darker too.
If you look up, you will find that it is not that the sky is getting darker, but that the dense branches and leaves above your head have become more numerous, squeezing out the light falling from the gaps.
"arrive!"
Manager Chen's loud voice came from the front.
When everyone took a look, they discovered that they had unknowingly stepped out of the dense forest, and a small valley appeared in front of them.
Seeing this scene, Chen Xiu couldn't help but sigh.
Along the way, no one would have thought that there was a valley in this place. It was really not easy for people from Sifang Medicine House to find such a secret place.
Otherwise, even if you can find it, you won't be able to go there alone. As a gathering place for black demon bears, there won't be just one or two in there.
When they arrived at the location, everyone started to group into groups in twos as before. Only then did Shen Xiu realize that the other people's eyes were wandering around him and they had directly ignored him.
Obviously, he still has doubts about his strength and doesn't really believe it.
"Dong Qi, from Xiaoshui Town."
Seeing Shen Xiu alone, a man in a gray robe next to him came over with a smile and introduced himself.
"Chen Xiu, Taixi City."
In the end, Shen Xiu and this lean man named Dong Qi became a couple.
According to Chief Chen's request, he began to slowly approach the inside of the valley.
It was just the follow-up arrangements that made Shen Xiu think for a moment, because he found that the position he was in did not seem to be the main force, but the support behind the valley side.
Obviously, his original idea of practicing and improving his proficiency in sword skills through actual combat fell through.
"Brother Dong, can you please put me in the lead when we kill the Black Demon Bear, and Brother Dong will hold the line?"
After thinking about it, Shen Xiu smiled and discussed with the muscular man beside him.
Dong Qi was startled when he heard this, and couldn't help but be a little stunned. In the end, there was an unhappy look on his face.
Because, he himself chose to cooperate with the other party because Shen Xiu looked immature and did not look like an experienced person. For this reason, he wanted to give him some support.
But at present, the other party does not seem to appreciate it, and seems to think too highly of himself.
You must know that dealing with the black demon bear will take a lot of effort even for them, so they don't dare to be careless.
The situation in the battle changes rapidly, and no one knows what will happen next moment. How can anyone dare to take such a huge responsibility?
Naturally, Dong Qi's expression could not be concealed from him, so Shen Xiu smiled and continued to add.
"I've never killed a black demon bear before, so I want to have a good time and gain some experience."
Hearing this, Dong Qi's expression gradually softened. If so, it could be considered excusable.
When he was able to hunt down some mutated beasts for the first time, he was extremely nervous and excited. The opponent's ability to restrain them until now was beyond his expectation.
"Okay, you will take the lead when the time comes."
Dong Qi looked understanding and patted Shen Xiu on the shoulder, feeling that if a young man got into trouble, he would naturally understand that the sky is high and the sky is high.
As time passed, the group gradually approached the valley, continued walking for a while, and soon saw a deep and dense forest.
At this time, Director Chen in front waved his hand, and the people behind him dispersed, keeping a suitable distance, forming a small encirclement.
Immediately afterwards, at the signal of Chief Chen, the two men behind him walked out, cautiously approached the dense forest, and then disappeared into the darkness shrouded in branches and leaves.
Cao Hongzhuo on the side stood still, staring at the dense forest with wide eyes.
Woo~
Not long after, the branches and leaves of the dark forest suddenly swayed, and the next moment, the sound of ghosts crying and wolves howling suddenly came out.
It's like coming from another world, it's so breathtaking!
The two men who had sneaked in before also appeared in the field of vision at this time, and hurried out of the dense forest without choosing a path.
His state is far less calm than before.
Behind them, there were three figures wrapped in black mist, making it difficult to see clearly what was inside.
Such a sight is undoubtedly that of the black demon bear with a body as strong as iron and thick skin and flesh.
It's just that the appearance is very different from ordinary wild bears. There is a big difference, and it looks almost ghostly.
Seeing this scene, everyone suddenly became energetic and their eyes gradually became serious.
It fell into silence for a while, waiting quietly for the three black demon bears to fall into the encirclement.
Shen Xiu also pulled out the long knife from his waist, licked his chapped lips, rubbed his fingers in the depression of the knife handle, and his eyes shone with excitement.
