A week later, Lu Yunxi casually asked about the progress of the inquiry.

“I’m sorry, Master Lu, I haven’t received any news about the task you assigned to me before. I’m afraid I’ll have to wait for a while!” Shen San said in a slightly low tone.

Normally, NPC quests in town could be solved in town, but he searched everywhere, even asking beggars on the street, but still got no information! Later, he contacted a few of his friends who were not in the same place as him, but they also didn't find anything there.

Lu Yunxi had already anticipated that it wouldn't be easy to find out, so she just nodded casually, not taking it to heart: "I understand."

Seeing that she didn't care too much, Shen San secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He was afraid that this task would suddenly become a time-limited task!

At night, the bustling town becomes quiet. Fortunately, there are street lights on the side of the street. Although they are made of paper lanterns, they provide some light so that it is not pitch dark.

Lu Yunxi looked at the sky, quickly climbed out the window and went out, and soon left the town.

For her, the experience points she could gain from the current martial arts gym were too little, and the cost was too high, making it very uneconomical! So she could only think of other ways to quickly improve her skill proficiency and martial arts strength.

After a walk around the town, she set her sights on the beast in the suburbs.

The wild beasts here are much more dangerous than those in the mountains behind Mushroom Village. They include jackals, bears, tigers, etc. Although they rarely hang around at the foot of the mountain, some people have indeed seen them in the deep mountains.

When Lu Yunxi reached the foot of the mountain, his pace slowed down.

The forest was very dangerous at night, and her visibility was much lower. She could only use her weapon to chop through the trees and weeds blocking her way while slowly moving upwards.

After a night, she killed a wild boar and five jackals. The harvest was not much because there were too many trees and it was difficult to move quickly in the mountains and forests, but the experience points were indeed gained much faster than in the martial arts gym!

It turns out that actual combat is the best method!

Lu Yunxi immediately decided to work during the day and go out to fight monsters at night. She just couldn't believe that after all her hard work, she couldn't become the best in the world?!

While thinking about her future martial arts plans in her mind, she slowly walked towards the restaurant.

However, when he was halfway there, he suddenly heard footsteps and sounds, accompanied by billowing smoke and dust coming from the front.

Damn it! She can't see the road!

Cough cough... After a burst of earth-shaking coughs, Lu Yunxi could barely see a group of people sitting on horses and galloping past in the smoke.

She hurriedly covered her mouth and tried to move towards the houses on both sides of the street to avoid the billowing smoke and dust.

However, at this moment, she suddenly heard a "meow" and looked up to see a kitten tentatively stretching out its little feet, about to jump down from the low shed.

"No!" She screamed in shock, not caring about the pile of dust entering her mouth.

The place where the kitten jumped down happened to be the path where the horse passed by. If it jumped down at this moment, it would definitely be trampled to death!

However, the cat could not understand human language, and the sound of the rolling horse hooves seemed to frighten it. Its fur stood on end, and its four legs flapped uncontrollably.

Pursing her lips, Lu Yunxi took two steps forward. Before the next horse arrived, she quickly rolled over and leaped, quickly hugging the cat in her arms.

Fortunately, everything was fine until she hugged the cat.

However, things don't always go as planned. At this moment, a horse was startled and its four hooves started dancing everywhere. The horse happened to be right next to her!

Lu Yunxi only felt a gust of wind passing over his head. He turned around subconsciously and saw the hoof about to fall.

However, she had nowhere to hide now! There was a house behind her and other people beside her!

She could only stare at the horse's hooves, ready to take action to control the horse.

However, the cat in her hand seemed to be frightened, its fur stood up, and it jumped forward without her noticing.

Lu Yunxi:!!!

Uncle Cat! You're running in the wrong direction!

Seeing that the cat was about to rush into the galloping horses, she grabbed the cat and held it in her arms, then turned around and blocked the hoof with her back.

Damn it! That hurts!

She didn't know how long she had to stay in this stalemate. The pain in her back was extremely unbearable.

At this moment, I felt a sudden relief on my back, followed by a familiar voice: "Master, are you okay?"

Lu Yunxi turned around and saw Shen San standing behind him, with a thin layer of sweat on his body, looking at him with a worried look on his face. The crazy horse had completely fallen at his feet, and had stopped breathing.

Looking at Shen San's ordinary face, her heart suddenly began to beat wildly and uncontrollably.

Bang, bang, bang... She subconsciously covered her chest, trying to suppress her madly beating heart: "I'm fine."

However, what Shen San saw was her face pale and she was holding her chest, which naturally made him even more worried.

"Is your chest or heart injured?" Shen San's heart sank, a trace of worry flashed across his eyes, and he immediately squatted down, motioning her to climb onto his back, "Let's go, I'll take you to the clinic to have a look!"

She paused, looked at the cat that was gradually calming down in her arms, put it down, then hugged his neck and lay on his back.

Shen San's back was very broad, and lying on it, the warm heat came through the clothes, making people feel very safe.

After fighting monsters on the mountain all night and then encountering such an accident, Lu Yunxi felt exhausted all over. Now he relaxed and fell asleep with his eyes closed as his back felt steady and almost vibration-free.
