The yellow dog was carrying a dead deer and walking quickly and carefully on the rugged path.
This was a spirit deer that had been stained with a trace of the spiritual essence of heaven and earth, and had a trace of demonic energy in its body. It was worth a lot of money. In March, a pair of antlers from this spirit deer could be exchanged for at least thirty to fifty crystal coins from those cultivators.
He touched his aching lumbar vertebrae with his backhand and grinned. His simple face was like a blooming flower. Selling this spirit deer, plus the few crystal coins he had saved before, should be enough to buy a body-tempering pill.
Ever since three years ago, when he teamed up with others to hunt a wild boar that had become a demon and was hit hard by the monster and his waist was twisted, Huang Quan's waist has been uncomfortable. Sometimes on rainy days, the pain is so severe that he is almost dead. When he practices martial arts on weekdays, his efficiency has also dropped by 10% to 20%.
If I had a body-tempering pill, this old injury would not be a problem at all.
Moreover, with the help of the medicinal properties of the Body Tempering Pill, the physical cultivation can be greatly improved. Perhaps, perhaps it can break through to the middle level of the An Shen Realm?
By then, you will be able to join some powerful hunting groups. Not only will your travel be much safer, but your income will also increase, and your life will be better.
Patting the heavy spirit deer on his back, the yellow dog smiled happily. It was worth it that he went into the forest alone to hunt twice. Although the risk was much greater, the harvest was rich enough. Otherwise, if a spirit deer was shared by three or five people, he would not get much crystal coins. [△网.]
Of course, he was also lucky.
The spirit deer is a herbivore, docile by nature, and not very lethal. With the trap set by the yellow dog, the three crossbows only needed one volley to kill the spirit deer. If it was the wild boar that injured the yellow dog three years ago, hehe, the yellow dog might suffer a great loss this time.
Deer antlers are worth a lot of money, deer skin is very good, and there are restaurants that will buy deer meat at a high price, after all, it is a spiritual deer that condenses demonic energy. The most fortunate thing is that this spiritual deer has another good treasure on it, which is as valuable as the deer antlers.
The yellow dog couldn't help laughing, and his steps became lighter as he walked.
With the Body Tempering Pill, I can improve my strength, join the big hunting group, accumulate a sum of crystal coins, and then find a well-behaved and capable wife, have a bunch of children, and hope that one or two of them will have good aptitude and be able to practice... then my life will be complete.
As an ordinary low-level warrior in the mortal world of Lingjiao Heaven, Huang Quan has no extravagant expectations for his fate. He only wants to be honest and down-to-earth, and live a peaceful life like a weed on the roadside.
After trekking for several hours on the rugged mountain trail, when it was getting dark, the yellow dog finally stepped onto a dirt road more than two meters wide. He didn't bother to rest, and after drinking two sips of spring water in the bamboo tube, he mustered up his strength and rushed forward along the dirt road.
After running around all night, when the red sun rose in the east, the yellow dog finally arrived at the gate of his settlement, 'Qingyaao'.
Surrounded by mountains on three sides, with a small river flowing in front of the gate, Qingyaao, with a radius of nearly 100 miles, has a good terrain and is home to nearly a million mortals and low-level cultivators. At the entrance to the river, a brick and stone wall 20 feet high and more than ten miles long was built, with a gate in the middle. There are cultivators and large groups of warriors on duty all year round.
The sweaty yellow dog carried the spirit deer to the gate and waited cautiously.
After about a quarter of an hour, the red sun in the east completely revealed its entire face from the top of the mountain. The gate of Qingyaao slowly opened with a heavy roar. A team of warriors in iron armor walked out arrogantly and stood on the left and right of the city gate, like wooden stakes.
Two independent cultivators at the peak of the An Shen realm came out of the city gate yawning, stood in the middle of the gate with their hands behind their backs, and looked around the gate.
Huang Quan bowed humbly to the two casual cultivators. One of the casual cultivators glanced at Huang Quan casually, and then his eyes suddenly lit up: "Wow, this deer... is not bad!"
Huang Quan hurriedly forced a smile and said to the casual cultivator: "I'm lucky this time. I happened to come across this..."
The casual cultivator moved his feet and instantly arrived in front of the yellow dog, grabbing the spirit deer by the neck and snatching it away. He weighed the spirit deer, which weighed three to five thousand kilograms, and with a casual stroke, the deer skin fell off by itself and was draped behind the casual cultivator.
He smiled and nodded, then the casual cultivator chopped off a deer leg with his right hand like a knife and casually stuffed it into the arms of the stunned yellow dog.
"Okay, this leg is yours... As for the rest, you know, things are very tense recently. The enemy in the west is about to attack, and we have been ordered to prepare for war with all our strength. Therefore, all resources are in short supply, and the share of the city gate tax has also increased. After deducting the city gate tax, you only have this leg of your deer."
The casual cultivator smiled and threw the spiritual deer with a missing leg toward the city gate. Another casual cultivator immediately smiled and waved his hand. A flash of light flashed on his finger, and the spiritual deer disappeared and was put into the ring on his hand.
The yellow dog stared blankly at the deer leg weighing several hundred pounds in his hand.
A spiritual deer, including the most valuable antlers and deer whip, the value of which is definitely more than one hundred crystal coins, and he was given just one leg?
How much is this deer leg worth?
His yellow dog had been hiding during the day and coming out at night in the deep mountains for more than a month, and was nearly killed by poisonous snakes and insects several times. The prey he had worked so hard to get was just used to offset the city gate tax?
What does it mean that the situation is very tense recently?
What does it mean that an attack is coming from the west?
What does it mean that various resources are in short supply?
Huang Quan only knew that his body-hardening pills…his hope in life…his tiny but simple happiness that he longed for…his insignificant life goal…
City gate tax?
"Sir, there is no such rule! Qingyaao, there has never been such a rule!" Huang Quan grabbed the sleeve of the casual cultivator and shouted, "One in ten, at most one in ten, the city gate tax! No one will take it all away like this, no one will take it all away like this!"
The casual cultivator was angry.
He swung his sleeves and a huge force came. The yellow dog fell to the ground with a thud, and its head hit a stone. Its scalp was broken and blood gushed out.
"Who said they took all of it? Isn't there still one leg? A leg this big, how many days will it be enough for you to eat?"
"This is what the higher-ups mean. From now on, all of Qingyaao's resources will be used to prepare for war! Do you understand? Do you get it? Did you hear it clearly?"
The casual cultivator pointed at the yellow dog and sneered, "By the way, you look strong and robust, so you are a good fighter... It just so happens that the higher-ups said they want to form a death squad... Hey, come on, it's you, you volunteer to join the death squad and take the initiative to go to the west to fight... Hey!"
Huang Quan's head was buzzing with anger, and he suddenly jumped up with a howl and punched the cultivator in the face. Mobile users please visit m.Read for a better reading experience.
