Ning Hong originally thought that such a strange item would probably take many days to sell, but to her surprise, it was bought by people from the cultivation world not long after it was put up.
There are a full two hundred points, which is equivalent to the reward points for completing a task.
If he kills a few more ferocious beasts, wouldn't he be able to get more points?
"Host, don't overthink it. It's just a coincidence that we encountered this person who needed to fight. Normally, these ferocious beasts wouldn't be worth many points. Taking shortcuts is not advisable."
"oh--"
That's such a shame!
"Brother, what do we do now?"
They were sent up the mountain as sacrifices. She had initially thought the mountain god was that strange-looking beast, but clearly, it wasn't. Otherwise, how could it have been killed so easily by her brother?
Even the body is nowhere to be found; the brother took it.
She turned around, and the body disappeared.
Of course, she didn't really want to know where the body went.
She has never been curious about these things.
More than anything, she wanted to know when the mountain god would return and devour them.
It's better if they don't come; who would want to die if they can survive?
"Let's stay in these mountains for a while. If the mountain god doesn't appear, we'll go back to the village." It seems unlikely he will appear.
But that's not necessarily true.
Logically speaking, this is not where the Yayu lives, but it just so happens to appear here. Most importantly, it can talk!
He would even beg for mercy when he beat him up.
Actually, he didn't want to kill them all, but this Yayu actually launched a sneak attack, trying to eat him when he wasn't paying attention. The result was predictable, so he didn't hold back.
They twisted Yayu's neck off directly.
"But we need food."
There's nothing to eat around here, and nothing grows.
"It's alright, your brother is here, how could you go hungry?" Food was never the most important thing; the most important thing was that they needed to find a place to stay.
Ning Hong led Ning Xiaoxiao a little further and they came to a river with many strange-looking fish swimming in it.
These fish look like carp, but they have a pair of chicken feet.
Ning Hongze: "..."
"Brother, this fish looks very strange."
"This is edible."
"Really? Can I eat it?" But it really looked strange, and Ning Xiaoxiao's little face scrunched up.
"It's okay, if you don't want to eat, then don't eat."
Although the book says it's edible, who knows if it might suddenly mutate in this strange, fictional world?
Ning Hongze and the fish in the river made eye contact. The fish shrank back into the water, avoiding Ning Hongze's gaze.
Ning Hongze: "..."
Turning around, I saw a snake's head huddled behind a large rock.
Ning Hongze shifted her gaze back, and noticed that this snake head actually had two tails.
It has one head and two bodies, and is called Fei Yi. Its appearance foretells a severe drought in the country.
"If I take care of you now, will the drought stop?"
Ning Hong then spoke up, turning to Ning Xiaoxiao, "Xiaoxiao, do you like snake soup?"
"Well enough."
It's much better than that fish, at least.
Seeing Ning Hongze walking towards it, the fat creature flicked its tail and quickly darted into the hole. But before it could escape, Ning Hongze swiftly grabbed its vital spot.
With their weakness in someone else's hands, Fei Yi dared not act recklessly anymore.
"I... I was just curious, so I came to take a look."
Yayu was a tyrant on this mountain. I heard that it had been killed, so it came out of curiosity to see what was going on. Who knew that something like this would happen?
"I really just came out to take a look, I didn't mean any harm."
The fat creature twisted its two snake bodies, its voice whimpering, sounding rather pitiful.
"But the book says that a great drought will occur as soon as you appear. In order to prevent the drought, why don't we just boil you?"
"You're talking nonsense. When did this book record these things? It's not because of me. I'm just a little curious. Maybe it's because during the drought, the ground cracked open, and I couldn't resist going out to see what was going on. But I've never heard of such a rumor."
Fei Yi felt very wronged.
These things have absolutely nothing to do with it, so why is this person blaming it? It rarely appears in front of people, and unlike the Yayu, it doesn't eat people; it has always been very well-behaved.
Is that not true?
Ning Hong blinked.
Well, this world might be somewhat different from the Classic of Mountains and Seas.
Since it wouldn't cause a severe drought, he didn't want to commit any more killings. The main reason was that they could speak human language, and killing them would feel like killing someone, which would give him a bit of a burden.
Ning Hongze let go of his hand, and Fei Yi quickly burrowed into a hole in the ground, only peeking out with half its head, secretly observing Ning Hongze and her brother.
Ning Hong then ignored Fei Yi.
He found a spacious cave, held up a luminous pearl, and went inside to take a look. Seeing that there were no other wild animals inside, and no messy insects on the ground, he pulled Ning Xiaoxiao inside to stay temporarily.
"Brother, what is this?"
Ning Xiaoxiao had never seen a luminous pearl before and was extremely curious about it.
"This is a treasure; it took your brother a lot of effort to get his hands on it." Ning Hong placed the luminous pearl in Ning Xiaoxiao's hand. "It's a gift for you."
Ning Hong looked up and saw that the stupid snake was still lying outside the cave, peeking in.
No, it should be considered obvious, since the two snake tails were swaying back and forth, which was really too conspicuous.
However, since it meant no harm, Ning Hong let it be.
How could a snake be so curious?
Ning Hong then took out two steamed buns and handed them to Ning Xiaoxiao to fill her stomach. Then she waved to Fei Yi and said, "Hey, stupid snake, come here. I have something to ask you."
The fat snake's head shrank back again, and a hint of fear appeared in its beady eyes.
"Don't be afraid, I just want to ask you some questions. Besides, I just let you go, so I won't hurt you again." But seriously, you're so scared, yet you can't control your curiosity?
Fei Yi twisted its snake body and slowly swayed over.
Looking at the strange beast, Ning Hong narrowed her eyes; it all seemed so unreal.
If he hadn't experienced it firsthand, who could believe that he could have encountered so many ancient mythical beasts recorded in the Classic of Mountains and Seas?
Most importantly, this is clearly not the world described in the Classic of Mountains and Seas.
What kind of mountain is this?
"We're not really sure either, but everyone calls it the sacred mountain, and that's what we call it too."
