"I see."

Lin Zhongtian nodded and stepped forward to offer a jar of wine.

Ning Chengwu and the bodyguards who followed them also stepped forward.

One of the escorts had a little wine left after pouring it, so he sat down against the tombstone, drinking and crying silently. It seemed that he must be a relative of a deceased person in the grave.

After the toast, Pan Yunpeng seemed to feel that the relationship between the two parties had become closer. A smile appeared on his face, and his words changed from the slightly distant "Brother Fu" to the more intimate "Big Brother Fu".

"Brother Fu, you and Brother Ning should go back first, and let me and the others have a private conversation with the uncles."

"Okay."

Lin Zhongtian and Ning Chengwu looked at each other, then turned and left.

On the way, Lin Zhongtian heard the noise coming from the blind bear again and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

Ning Chengwu seemed to have noticed it as well. He frowned and cursed, "Damn it! This black bastard is really incessant. If it weren't for my good brothers coming to the village for a drink today, I would have brought people to kill you right now!"

Lin Zhongtian was eager to try after hearing this, and asked quickly: "Brother Ning, when I went up the mountain, I heard Yunpeng say that the blind bears in this mountain have always kept to themselves, haven't you?"

Ning Chengwu restrained the bandit image he had developed over the years and said with a wry smile, "That was in the past. The blind bear saw that we were outnumbered and couldn't tell our strength, so he didn't dare to provoke us. Now that he knows we don't dare to touch him, he has become more and more daring. Last month he was just wandering around in the woods outside the village, but now he dares to come to the entrance of the village."

"Then what is it doing in the village?"

"Who knows? Maybe he smelled the aroma of cooking in the village."

Lin Zhongtian's face straightened when he heard this: "We can't go on like this!"

Ning Chengwu nodded and said bitterly, "That's true. I've already made up my mind. When you leave, I'll take people to kill this black fellow and taste his meat!"

Lin Zhongtian's mouth was almost watering, and he quickly said, "Hey, Brother Ning, you are wrong. As the saying goes, a gentleman does not bear grudges overnight. Since you want to kill it, why not do it now!"

A gentleman does not bear grudges overnight...

Is there such a saying?

Ning Chengwu was stunned for a moment, then came to his senses and smiled bitterly, "It's not that easy. This blind bear has thick skin and great strength. Ordinary arrows can't hurt it. If we want to deal with it, we can only set a trap and lure it in. Going straight in would be too chaotic and many people would die."

Finally I've waited for this sentence!

Lin Zhongtian's face turned serious, and he said righteously: "Why do you have to do this, Brother Ning, we are all family, Fu is willing to help you eliminate this mountain evil!"

“…Don’t do that!”

Ning Chengwu finally realized what Lin Zhongtian meant.

How is this possible?

Ning Chengwu quickly grabbed Lin Zhongtian, trying to stop him.

But Lin Zhongtian had made up his mind and dodged his palm with a slight flash.

"Brother Ning, there is no need to say more. I will be back soon!"

After saying that, Lin Zhongtian leaped up and landed lightly in the forest. In a few breaths, he disappeared from Ning Chengwu's sight.

Ning Chengwu was stunned with shock, his outstretched hand froze in the air. It took him a few seconds to react, his face immediately filled with anxiety.

He pretended to give chase, but thinking that he was unarmed and had no weapons, he would just be feeding the beast, so he quickly turned around and ran towards the village, intending to get others to go and rescue Lin Zhongtian.

As soon as we arrived at the entrance of the village, an earth-shaking roar came from the foot of the mountain.

It was the sound made by the blind bear weighing a thousand pounds.

Ning Chengwu didn't need to notify anyone now. The men in the village were alarmed by the roar and came to the gate of the village with weapons in hand, and happened to meet Ning Chengwu who had returned.

Ning Chengwu finished explaining quickly, and everyone realized that Lin Zhongtian had gone to cause trouble for the blind bear himself.

Seeing Ning Chengwu and the others so anxious, Yang Suhua was a little surprised: "Isn't it just a blind bear? I heard from Master Jin and the others that Brother Fu is a martial artist who is invincible in the world. Can't he deal with a blind bear?"

Ning Chengwu smiled bitterly and said, "Miss Yang, I have also heard the story of Brother Fu charging into the battle alone, but that was when he was armed. This time he brought nothing with him and went to trouble that blind bear with his bare hands!"

"Ah! He has no weapon?"

Yang Suhua was so frightened that his face turned pale.

At this moment, someone nearby listened carefully and asked in astonishment, "Why is there no sound?"

Ning Chengwu and everyone else looked at each other.

Oh no, this is completely over!

The Tongmenghui's top fighter, Zhao Lihe's sworn brother, died at the hands of Blind Bear.

How are they going to explain this to the organization?

There is no other way. No matter what, I have to see the person alive or the body dead.

Ning Chengwu and others took their weapons and ropes, and hundreds of people went down the mountain together.

Not long after walking out of the village gate, Ning Chengwu, who was walking in front, stopped.

I saw a black shadow appearing on the mountain road ahead. The first thing that caught everyone's eyes was a huge black bear head, followed by two hanging black bear paws.

Ning Chengwu's heart tightened, and he quickly drew his bow and arrow and ordered everyone to prepare for battle.

But before he could say anything, he saw a head popping out from under the bear's head and between its two arms.

It was Lin Zhongtian who had just left not long ago.

It turned out that he really killed the giant bear and walked back carrying the giant bear's body. However, the giant bear's body was too huge, covering most of Lin Zhongtian's torso, causing everyone to fail to notice his figure at first.

A man holding a crossbow widened his eyes, looked at the figure in front of him, and spoke in a difficult tone.

"Then... that's Brother Fu?"

"Did he really beat that blind bear to death with his bare hands?"

Everyone was suddenly in an uproar, and started talking to the people around them with excitement on their faces.

Ning Chengwu was also stunned for a while. After he came to his senses, he calculated the time and couldn't help muttering.

"You really come back as soon as you go..."

When Lin Zhongtian came in front of the crowd carrying the giant bear, everyone who was originally talking suddenly shut their mouths, turned their heads and looked at Lin Zhongtian with strange eyes.

Lin Zhongtian raised his eyebrows and asked in surprise: "Why are you all looking at me?"

Everyone looked at each other in bewilderment. Ning Chengwu stepped forward, bowed, clasped his fists, and said sincerely: "Brother Fu is so brave and invincible. I admire you!"

Lin Zhongtian rolled his eyes and said unhappily, “Alright, that’s enough. So many people have come out and blocked the road. Why don’t you get out of the way? We’re eating bear meat tonight!”

"Hahaha!"

Everyone burst into laughter upon hearing this, and immediately retreated to the sides of the road, looking at Lin Zhongtian with admiration on their faces.

Lin Zhongtian carried the giant bear all the way to the mountain village. During the journey, the giant bear's foul-smelling saliva mixed with blood flowed out of its mouth. Before it dripped onto his head, it was blocked by an invisible air barrier.

This is one of the uses of internal energy that Lin Zhongtian discovered.

The principle is to control the internal Qi to surge out of the body surface, build an extracorporeal circulatory system with the five acupoints of Laogong, Baihui and Yongquan as the center, and form a barrier-like internal Qi protective shield.

This layer of shield is purely made up of internal energy, and its defensive power is not very strong. It is definitely useless to use it to block bullets or crossbow arrows, but it can definitely block dust and rain.

In addition, Lin Zhongtian has also developed many small techniques such as internal Qi absorption and internal Qi breathing.

Internal Qi adsorption is the use of the suction force of the internal Qi backflow to create a short vacuum. The specific manifestation is that one can climb smooth walls at will like Spider-Man.

Internal breathing is breathing through the internal energy and pores instead of through the mouth and nose.

There are many other little tricks that I won’t go into detail about.

In short, although this internal energy is relatively useless in terms of power, it is still quite useful in daily life.

When they returned to the mountain village, Yang Suhua and Zhang Yan, father and daughter, who were waiting there, saw Lin Zhongtian. Their expressions suddenly changed from worry to joy, and they all surrounded him.

That night, everyone in the mountain village dismembered the blind bear. Lin Zhongtian took the two sisters, Yang Suhua and Zhang Yan, to the mountains to collect some ingredients that could remove the smell of bear paws and bear meat, and also collected a jar of mountain honey.

When everything was ready, Lin Zhongtian enthusiastically took over as chef and personally prepared a bear meat feast.

The guests enjoyed themselves the whole night with wine and meat.

The next morning, everyone reluctantly went down the mountain and started their journey again.
