Chapter 11 Exposed



Chapter 11 Exposed

"Yeah, I feel it."

Fang Zhixing was greatly excited. From drawing the sword out of the sheath to chopping, it had to be done in one go without any pause in between. Not only had to be fast, but also powerful, steady, fierce and accurate.

Then he practiced again and again, gradually becoming sweaty.

Take a break and continue practicing.

The cycle repeats itself.

Before I knew it, two hours had passed and the sun was setting.

Fang Zhixing felt his arm and found it was okay, not particularly sore.

With the foundation of a full-level apprentice archer, Fang Zhixing had a better understanding of how to use his strength and did not suffer any injuries.

Then he went down to the river to fish and caught some clams and snails. He was lucky and caught a big eel.

The dinner was very satisfying.

After dark, go home and sleep.

In the dim night, Zhao Dahu and his group returned from hunting. More than a dozen people worked together to carry a fat wild boar back home.

The old village chief smiled happily and went out to greet them.

In this year of famine, anyone would be very happy if a family of dozens of people could still have meat to eat.

While eating, Zhao Dahu mentioned: "Dad, did you notice that Daniu?"

The old village chief was stunned for a moment and asked in confusion: "That kid must be starving to death, why are you paying attention to him?"

Zhao Dahu quickly told Da Niu about what happened today.

The old village chief was immediately confused and said in a deep voice, "Daniu, that kid, has such a red face? Where did he get the food?"

Zhao Dahu whispered: "Dad, Ergou's two legs are gone, don't you suspect someone..."

The old village chief's face changed, and he said in surprise: "You suspect that it was done by Daniu!"

Zhao Dahu nodded and said affirmatively: "Otherwise, how did he fatten himself up?"

The old village chief stroked his beard.

It's dawn and the roosters crow.

Fang Zhixing woke up and was a little grumpy when he heard the rooster crowing. He wanted to eat the bird.

But that bird belonged to the old village chief's family, and he was the only family in the village that still raised chickens.

One person and one dog go out.

I had just walked a few steps out of the door when a man came towards me. It must be the old village chief.

Fang Zhixing immediately acted well-behaved, lowered his head and smiled, "Good morning, old village chief, have you eaten?"

"Not yet, I'll eat later."

The old village chief smiled kindly, his eyes slightly narrowed, and he shook the dry pipe in his hand and said with a smile: "Daniu, are you doing well? Do you have any food at home?"

Fang Zhixing said, "The food has been eaten up a long time ago. Now I dig wild vegetables to eat every day."

The old village chief nodded and said with a smile: "Do you want me to lend you some food? I can lend you 10 or 20 kilograms."

Fang Zhixing first raised his head with an expectant look on his face, then smiled innocently and said, "Right now, food is more expensive than anything else. I can't pay it back even if I borrow it! Well, I still have half an acre of land at home. I'll sell it to the old village chief. You can decide how much to give me."

The old village chief's expression froze slightly.

What's the situation now? The fields are barren. What do I need your half-acre of thin land for? After a moment of silence, the old village chief smiled and said, "You want to sell the land? Okay, let me think about it first."

The two parted ways.

Fang Zhixing quickly left the village, entered the woods, and then hid behind a tree to secretly observe the village entrance.

Seeing this, Xigou sent a voice message: "Why, do you suspect that your encounter with the old village chief was not an accidental encounter?"

Fang Zhixing nodded and said, "The old village chief hangs around the village every day. Have you ever seen him care about my life or death? Today he suddenly showed kindness, which is too abnormal. There must be something fishy going on."

Xigou suddenly realized and said thoughtfully: "Yesterday we met Zhao Dahu and others, and today we met the old village chief again. Could it be that they discovered something?"

Fang Zhixing suddenly looked up and saw a young man walking out of the village and heading towards the woods.

"Zhao Zikun!"

Fang Zhixing recognized that this Zhao Zikun was Zhao Dahu's son and the old village chief's good grandson.

Because he broke his arm while hunting, he has been recuperating at home and is an idle person.

Zhao Zikun was seen walking and looking around, then he sneaked into the woods, turning around and around, as if looking for something.

Fang Zhixing hid himself and remained calm.

After a while, Zhao Zikun became a little impatient. He stomped his feet in anger and turned back to the village.

Fang Zhixing watched Zhao Zikun really enter the village, then he walked out and left quickly.

Xigou hesitated and said, "What does the old village chief mean? We haven't offended him, have we?"

Fang Zhixing curled his lips and said, "In troubled times, there is no need to consider a person's motives for doing things. Harming or even killing people may be just a whim, or there may be other intentions. But no matter what it is, what we have to do is to survive!"

The dog understood and said, "I will be on guard at all times."

The man and the dog traveled through the woods, came to the river, fished, ate, and then practiced sword-drawing.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

The fulfilling day passed quickly.

[1. Draw your sword 1000 times (269/1000)]

Nothing happened during the night, and dawn came again in the blink of an eye.

Fang Zhixing and Xigou got up earlier than usual, sneaked out of the house, and took a different route to leave the village.

Seven or eight days passed in a flash.

[1. Draw the sword 1000 times (completed)]

"finally!"

Fang Zhixing breathed a sigh of relief. He had been practicing the sword-drawing technique every day, which had caused calluses on his hands. The calluses were then rubbed off, causing him excruciating pain.

Fortunately, you only need to draw your sword a thousand times!

[2. Kill 2 life forms of the same level (unfinished)]

Fang Zhixing looked at the second condition and fell into deep thought.

"What does life of the same level mean?" Xigou was also thinking.

Apparently, Fang Zhixing had tried to chop clams, snails, crayfish, and giant eels with a hunting knife these days, and none of them were taken into account by the plug-in.

Xigou couldn't help but think of a possibility: "You may have to kill two people."

He is a life of the same level as Fang Zhixing, so if he is not a human, then what is he?

"not necessarily!"

Fang Zhixing shook his head. "The 'same level' here may refer to a certain aspect of physical quality, such as an animal with the same speed as me, or weight, strength, jumping height, etc."

The dog questioned: "The crayfish is not slow either."

Fang Zhixing pondered and said, "The crayfish is too small, and I can't catch it very fast."

The dog thought for a moment and said, "It's just a guess. We need to find a living creature to test it."

Fang Zhixing thought about it and nodded, "Let's go hunting in the mountains tomorrow."

Night falls.

The man and the dog returned to the village. From afar, they saw a bright light in the village.

"Fire?"

Fang Zhixing and Xigou looked at each other, quickened their pace, and entered the village. They found that there was no fire.

The villagers held torches and gathered at the door of "Uncle Liu's" house.

Uncle Liu is a widower. His wife died of illness. He has no children and lives alone.

Fang Zhixing came forward, came to Aunt Wang's side, and asked, "Aunt, what's wrong?"

Aunt Wang tilted her head to glance at him and whispered, "Something happened to your Uncle Liu. Someone killed him!"

"Killed?"

Fang Zhixing's heart shuddered, and he heard Aunt Wang say, "Your Uncle Liu hasn't been seen for several days. He's not even seen alive or dead, and there's a strange smell coming from his house. This evening, Second Sister Bai, who lives next door, couldn't stand the smell, so she went to his house to check, and she found his body, which was stinking."
