He hid in a tree, secretly observing the gray wolf.
Although he is now agile, he still lacks practical combat experience.
Wolves are fierce and cunning by nature, so you can't let your guard down.
Taking advantage of the gray wolf howling at the moon, Zhang Fan leaped down from the tree, grabbed a handful of fur from the wolf's forehead, ripped it off, and before the wolf could react, quickly jumped back up the tree.
The gray wolf howled, bared its fangs, and suddenly turned around, only to see a blurry black shadow leaping up the tree.
Then it saw the shadowy figure leap from one tree to another.
Trying to run away?!
The gray wolf chased after Zhang Fan's figure, getting closer and closer to Zhang Si and the others.
Zhang Fan saw Zhang Si squatting in the toilet from afar.
It's like a timely pillow being delivered when you're sleepy—perfect timing.
Zhang Fan jumped in front of Zhang Si and stuffed the wolf fur into his mouth.
Zhang Si only saw a black shadow flash by, and then a handful of hair appeared in his hand.
What kind of fur is this?
Zhang Si didn't think much of it and just used it to wipe his butt when two bright green eyes appeared in front of him.
"Ah—" He was so scared that he didn't even pull up his pants and ran away as fast as he could.
Upon seeing its own fur, the gray wolf concluded that Zhang Si was the culprit who plucked its fur.
Without the slightest hesitation, it took a bite.
Untamed wolves possess the most primal wildness.
With one bite and a strong pull, you can bite off a piece of meat.
Zhang Si screamed, "Kill it!"
Someone tried to help, only to discover something even worse.
This wasn't a single wolf, but a pack.
They came in droves from all directions.
Zhang Fan hid in a tree and counted them. There were seven wolves in total, which meant that it would take about two people to fight one wolf.
Zhang Qingshan and his men brandished sickles, machetes, and other weapons, wildly attacking the wolf pack.
However, they soon discovered that the pack of wolves seemed to be targeting Zhang Si only.
So they stopped attacking the wolf pack and instead surrounded the city, holding their weapons to protect themselves.
At first, Zhang Si kept screaming, but his voice gradually grew softer and softer until he finally fell silent.
No one dared to go up and help.
After an unknown amount of time, someone realized that wolves are most afraid of fire.
If something happens to Zhang Si, they will also be implicated.
Only then did Zhang Qingshan and the others muster the courage to pick up torches and drive away the wolves.
After a standoff, the wolf pack finally retreated, and the sky was beginning to lighten.
Only then did everyone see Zhang Si's miserable state.
He was covered in blood, with not a single piece of flesh intact on his body. Half of his buttocks had been torn off, his calves were a bloody mess, and one of his arms had been ripped off.
"Zhang Qingshan, hurry up and carry him back."
"Why me?"
"If you hadn't tipped us off to arrest Zhang Fan, would we be in such a terrible state?"
Zhang Qingshan had diarrhea all night and was kicked by Zhang Si, causing internal injuries. He was swaying and about to collapse, but since everyone was watching him, he could only grit his teeth and carry Zhang Si on his back.
His legs went weak, and he fell to the ground several times, causing Zhang Si, who was on his back, to suffer a lot as well.
Although they haven't seen a doctor yet, everyone tacitly agrees that Zhang Si probably won't survive this time.
This time, no one was afraid of Zhang Si's authority.
Do you know why Zhang Si hates Zhang Fan so much?
The question, "Why?" immediately piqued everyone's interest.
"Last night, I saw Zhang Si go to find Hu Xue, so I thought I'd eavesdrop. But I heard Zhang Si get scared by Zhang Fan and go back. That thing didn't work anymore, and he drank a lot of alcohol."
"If you ask me, he deserves it. He tricked a fool into marriage so that he could easily cheat on his wife, and then he even cheated on her."
"I heard before that our place was going to be occupied. They tricked a fool into getting married so that Hu Xue, an outsider, could settle down and get more money."
"Zhang Qingshan and his brother are really despicable; they actually sold out their own brother."
Zhang Qingshan was so angry that his face turned pale and then red, and he didn't dare to say a word, for fear that he would fall if he spoke.
"What a bad day. Is this karma for bullying an idiot?"
"It's pretty eerie, otherwise why would that wolf target Zhang Si alone?"
"Heaven is watching what people do, Zhang Qingshan, beware of your retribution!"
The speaker meant no harm, but the listener took it to heart, and Zhang Qingshan broke out in a cold sweat.
...
Zhang Fan did not follow them out of the forest. He felt a surge of power within him and knew he had to meditate and cultivate.
He found a protruding rock in the woods where he could bask in the sun.
Absorbing the essence of the sun and moon helps his cultivation.
He sat cross-legged, closed his eyes, concentrated his mind, and focused his attention on his dantian (lower abdomen).
Zhang Fan's attention was entirely focused on his dantian. At first, everything was pitch black in front of him, and he couldn't see anything, but he could easily feel the flow of spiritual energy within his body.
These spiritual energies flowed out of his body with his breathing, but did not linger within him.
He focused his mind and breathed deeply, trying to keep his spiritual energy within his body. He could vaguely see wisps of golden light moving through his meridians.
Following the cultivation method in the "Wuji Jing", he practiced manipulating the light spots and actually saw those light spots gradually condense and converge into a light spot the size of a grain of rice.
This point of light is spiritual energy, also known as Qi as described in the Wuji Jing.
He must learn to constantly squeeze his dantian with his breath in order to open it up.
The dantian is divided into the upper dantian, middle dantian, and lower dantian.
With the jade beads entering his body, Zhang Fan has only learned how to guide qi into his body and has not yet developed his lower dantian.
However, Zhang Fan was not discouraged. He had already surpassed many people. Some people cultivated for half a lifetime before they could see the light spots, but he was already able to condense them.
Zhang Fan guided the light spot to compress his dantian, but the light spot was too small. When compressing his dantian, it was like a pebble being thrown into the ocean, without causing the slightest ripple.
Fortunately, the sun was getting bigger and bigger, bringing more and more spiritual energy to absorb. Zhang Fan looked up at the sky, absorbing the sun's spiritual energy.
After gathering spiritual energy, one should use that energy to compress the dantian.
Each time his spiritual energy was exhausted, he would gather it again, and the point of light would become larger and larger each time.
Once, twice... on the tenth time, Zhang Fan finally felt his dantian being squeezed, as if he had encountered an obstacle in front of him.
This time, the spiritual energy condensed into a pea-sized form. Zhang Fan squeezed his dantian again, and a puff of heat rose from his head.
With a whoosh, the dantian was opened up, and spiritual energy surged into the lower dantian and was stored there.
Zhang Fan felt an unprecedented hunger; he felt he could swallow a whole cow.
Zhang Fan disregarded his cultivation and decided to go find something to eat.
