After killing the demon spider...

Qiye pulled out the dagger and saw the surprised looks from the four people around him. He couldn't help but be stunned, scratched his head and said in embarrassment:

"Sorry, I saw it was trying to break away and run away, so I killed it first."

"I didn't expect that Junior Brother Ah Qi has such agility. I really admire him."

Ji Dongming put away his sword and looked at the demon spider's corpse with a deep look.

"No, Senior Brother Ji is overrated. Ah Qi just followed the adults into the mountains for hunting and learned some superficial skills."

Qiye waved his hands and said modestly, and then made up an excuse at random.

"Since Junior Brother Ah Qi is so agile, then we will be responsible for rounding up, and Junior Brother will be responsible for the final settlement. What do you think?"

Ji Dongming suggested.

Now that he knew Qiye's abilities, he naturally wanted to make use of them.

"Well..." Qiye nodded.

"Ah Qi, be careful."

Yan Wan did not dissuade him, but reminded him.

"Um...can you give me the body of this monster?"

Seeing that the matter had come to an end, Qiye scratched his head in embarrassment.

"Xiao Qi, what do you want this corpse for? It's so disgusting..."

Shang Qian put away the barbed wire and lightly covered her mouth and nose with a look of disgust.

"Hehe...of course it's for selling money."

Qiye smiled honestly.

Of course, this was also a reason he made up.

After all, the outer disciples are not rich to begin with and cannot have as many spiritual stones as the inner disciples of the Alchemy Hall.

The corpse of a second-level monster cub can be sold for one or two low-grade spiritual stones.

Perhaps, the inner disciples look down upon it, but for ordinary outer disciples who can only receive a few low-grade spiritual stones a month.

This is undoubtedly a considerable amount of income.

Moreover, if you accumulate a small sum of money, it will still be a big fortune.

Therefore, in the eyes of others. It is reasonable for Qiye to sell the corpse of the monster.

"It's useless for us to bring corpses, what do you think, Senior Brother Ji?"

Yan Wan looked at Ji Dongming and asked for advice.

After all, hunting monsters is the result of everyone's joint efforts, so she can't make the decision without permission.

However, there is more partiality in the words.

"Well, the body of this demon spider cub is really not of much use. Since Ah Qi needs it, let's take it..."

How could Ji Dongming not understand what Junior Sister Yan meant?

However, being able to send some monster corpses as a favor also seemed generous.

So, he waved his hand and didn't care.

"Thank you very much!"

Qiye quickly handed over his hands and thanked him, then quickly put the body into the talisman bag.

Because the demon spider itself contains toxins, its flesh is not suitable for monks to eat.

However, just because people can't eat it doesn't mean that monsters can't eat it.

His biggest purpose in participating in this encirclement and suppression plan is:

Just to save enough food for his two demon pets, especially poisonous food.

The tooth-burial centipede itself is a highly poisonous monster. Although its cubs are weakly toxic, if they eat poisonous food for a long time, their future toxicity will greatly exceed the fifth-level poisonous attribute.

As the saying goes: He who eats thousands of poisons will be immune to all poisons.

That's the truth.

Of course, this was something he accidentally heard from Yuying during Qiye's chat, and he kept it in mind.

Moreover, such toxic ingredients are not easy to buy in the market.

Because there are not many people who can tame demon pets, and even fewer who can tame poisonous monsters.

Therefore, the number of toxic ingredients that need to be provided is not large.

Therefore, he wanted to take advantage of this encirclement and suppression opportunity to save some poisonous ingredients that his demon pets needed and feed them for a while.

Wait for the two centipedes to grow up a little before looking for other more toxic ingredients.



In the following time, the five people worked together and searched towards the dense mountains in the distance.

For a whole afternoon, I searched two mountain ranges and hunted twenty or thirty demon spider babies, which was quite a harvest.

Night falls...

The five of them found the nearest sect camping spot and prepared to spend the night.

Although during the day, the sect disciples hunted in groups and acted independently.

However, at night, the roles of hunter and prey are reversed.

Night is a good opportunity for spiders to forage.

After all, the Man-Faced Demon Spider is known as the "Ghost of the Night."

Its agile speed and fatal blow make it a nightmare for many monks at night.

Therefore, even a single team of a few people can easily become the hunting target of the Man-Faced Demon Spider in the wild, and the entire army will be wiped out.

The best way is for everyone to come together and resist together.

Coupled with the care of the sect elders, this ensures a worry-free night.

Several people walked into the camping site and saw blazing bonfires and numerous tents.

Everyone sat around on the ground, talking and laughing as they counted their gains for the day.

Seeing someone arriving, everyone looked over in unison, with strange and puzzled eyes:

Among these five people,

There are core disciples wearing white robes,

There are inner disciples wearing green robes,

There are also outer disciples wearing gray robes,

A very strange combination...

Many disciples in the camp are no strangers to Yan Wan, Gao Yi and Shang Qian, who are inner disciples.

As a disciple of Dantong, it is normal to participate in such a sect trial.

But what is puzzling is:

As a core disciple wearing a white robe, he usually disdained to participate in such inner sect trials.

As an outer disciple of Gray Robe, he is not qualified to participate.

How did they come together?

This left many inner disciples puzzled.

Several people ignored it and continued to move forward.

"Disciple Ji Dongming has met Elder Kong."

When he came to the camp, Ji Dongming saw the person in charge of the camp at a glance.

Kong Xingqiu, the elder of Huzong Hall, quickly stepped forward to salute.

"I've met Elder Kong."

Yan Wan and others who were accompanying him also stepped forward to salute.

"Oh, I didn't expect you to come, Dong Ming. Haha, what's gained today?"

Kong Xingqiu stood with his hands behind his back and smiled kindly.

As a core disciple of Tianyun Sect Spiritual Medicine Garden, Ji Dongming naturally knew him.

"The harvest wasn't too great, I only killed less than thirty."

Ji Dongming spoke respectfully and truthfully.

"Well, with your ability, you can hunt so many, which is pretty good."

Kong Xingqiu cast an approving look.

Although a battle axe-level powerhouse is more than enough to deal with second-level monsters, if there are a large number of them, it is also a very labor-intensive task.

Looking at Ji Dongming's aura now, he is still calm.

immediately

Kong Xingqiu shifted his attention, looked at the people behind Ji Dongming, and said:

"Yan Wan, you were not refining alchemy in the alchemy hall, why did you run out?"

Although the tone is reproachful, it also contains the care of an elder.

"Elder Kong, in this sect trial, all inner disciples participated. I am also an inner disciple, how can I be left out?

Moreover, I was almost bored to death from refining pills in the alchemy hall all day long. Besides, if you still have Senior Brother Ji to protect you, elder, don’t worry..."

Yan Wan said coquettishly.

When she is outside, she is basically quiet, upright, knowledgeable and courteous, but sometimes she can be playful in front of the elders.

"You girl... you are so careless."

Kong Xingqiu stroked his forehead helplessly.

Then, he looked at Qiye at the end of the team and asked in confusion:

"Why, are there still outer disciples in your team?"

He had already scanned it with his spiritual consciousness, and found that the spiritual power aura on Qiye was only the second level of the elementary level.

With such strength, in this forest full of death hunts, he will be eaten without even the bones in a moment, which is extremely dangerous.

In such an environment, there is actually a stupid young man from the outer sect coming here. Isn't this looking for death?

"Elder Kong, please don't worry. With a few of us protecting him, there will be no problem. Besides, Ah Qi has a special gift of vision. He discovered the demon spider babies we hunted this time..."

Yan Wan quickly explained.

And when I heard my senior sister say this,

Qiye behind him couldn't help but sweat in his heart:

Unexpectedly, a reason that I made up at random seems to be spreading more and more widely.

In the future, if I mess up, it won’t look good.

"Really?"

Kong Xingqiu looked at Ji Dongming for confirmation.

Normally, he would not doubt Yan Wan's words.

But this hunting is so dangerous that there is no time to act haphazardly.

"Yes. Junior Brother Ah Qi really helped us a lot."

Ji Dongming nodded in agreement.

"Ah Qi, show Elder Kong the monsters we hunted."

Seeing that Elder Kong was still a little doubtful, Yan Wan quickly reminded him, as if he wanted to prove that what he said was true.

"Elder Kong, please look."

Qiye took a few steps forward and respectfully opened the talisman bag.

Kong Xingqiu scanned it with his consciousness, and his eyelids couldn't help but move slightly:

Good guys, 28 corpses of devil spider babies.

He naturally knew that for the inner disciples, hunting down the demon spider babies seemed simple based on their strength, but it was actually not easy.

First, because the devil spider is good at hiding in shadows, it is not easy to be discovered during the day.

Maybe you won't be able to spot it even if you pass by its hiding place several times.

Because when the demon spider hides, it will automatically enter a dormant state.

In the dormant state, if the breath it emits is extremely weak, it will be difficult for inner disciples to distinguish it.

Second, even if its hiding place is discovered, it does not mean that it will be able to catch a turtle in a jar.

Because some tiny movements can wake it up, and once the demon spider notices the movement and wakes up from sleep, it will immediately choose to escape quickly and will not fight with the intruder.

Because they don't like sunlight, daytime is not conducive to fighting.

Only night is their home for killing.

To sum up the above two points, a team of five people can hunt eight or nine animals in a day, which is considered a very good result.

But Yan Wan and the others actually hunted 28 of them, three times the number of other teams.

This made Kong Xingqiu take a deep look at Qiye.

I didn't expect that this outer disciple who had only been in the sect for a few months would have such abilities.

When they came in just now

The first impression this Qiye gave him was:

ordinary,

Too ordinary!

The appearance looks plain and unremarkable, without any sparkle.

It's like looking at something one last time and then turning around and not remembering it.

He is thin, not tall, and has neatly combed black hair.

But a pair of eyes, very dark and bright.

Reflecting the light of the fire, it looked particularly clear.

In general, the overall feeling Qiye gave Kong Xingqiu was:

An ordinary farm boy.

"May I have your name?"

Kong Xingqiu asked specifically.

"Ah Qi"

Qiye answered respectfully.

"Is this really your name?"

Kong Xingqiu's eyes were piercing, as if he wanted to see whether Qiye was lying.

"yes."

Qiye raised his head, looked at her and said calmly.

"Well, not bad...you go and do your work."

Kong Xingqiu smiled meaningfully and waved his hand.

Immediately, the five people retreated and set up tents in the camp.



"What are you laughing at, elder?"

A disciple asked curiously when he saw the faint smile on Elder Kong's lips.

"Who are you asking?"

Kong Xingqiu stopped smiling, returned to a serious face, and asked with sharp eyes.

"No, no, nothing..."

The disciple retreated in fear.

After scaring away the disciples, Kong Xingqiu raised his head and quietly paid attention to Qiye who was setting up a tent.

During the inquiry just now, he was out of interest and invisibly released some Buddhist Zen sounds.

Zen sound means "truth", which can make the person being asked speak the truth naturally.

However, what he didn't expect was that Qiye was not affected at all. I have lived for more than a hundred years, and I have never seen such a person.

He could tell with 90% certainty that the name 'Ah Qi' was not the real name.

But the problem is that even the fighting soul level monks cannot resist the Buddhist Zen sound that he has cultivated.

Even if it's just a trace, it's not something a junior second-level disciple can resist.

"Could it be that Ah Qi is really his name..."

Kong Xingqiu guessed uncertainly.
