After bidding farewell to Lei Xinyuan and his mother, Li Ran and others drove towards the mountains outside the city.
"Alas, my little darling has grown up. She is no longer my little darling. She is not cute at all..." Xue Gaoya kept muttering while sitting next to Li Ran.
"Okay, don't you see how old you are? You're still my baby!" Qiao Jianshi muttered while driving.
"What do you care? I am the baby. I am one now, I was one in the past, and I will be one in the future. Humph." Xue Gaoya said unconvinced.
She's not even 30 yet, not even married, so how come she's old? Why is she being called auntie?
The more Xue Gaoya thought about it, the angrier she became. She no longer had the mood to buy bags and new clothes.
"Brother Qiao, who are they?" Li Ran was a little curious sitting in the back row. This child was quite cute.
Qiao Jianmu's face looked slightly painful at this time.
Li Ran seemed to have guessed something, so she chose to remain silent and listen.
"This child's name is Lei Xinyuan, he is the child of my former captain..." A trace of pain appeared on Qiao Jianmu's face.
Qiao Jianshi, who was driving in front, couldn't help but tremble. Although it was very slight, Li Ran still noticed it keenly.
After saying this, Qiao Jianmu seemed to fall into deep memories, leaning back in his chair, and remained silent for a long time!
Li Ran also realized that he asked questions that he shouldn't have asked.
"I was really stupid that day. I was so self-righteous. Sigh... so stupid..."
Qiao Jianmu was silent for a while and then spoke again.
"It's nothing, actually. I was just stopped by some jealous bastards when I was coming back from hunting."
"They were much stronger than us, but Little Stone and I were young and hot-headed at the time. When we heard they were trying to steal our things, we just went up and started a fight without considering the consequences at all!"
"Then, at the critical moment, my captain blocked an attack for Little Stone and me, unleashed a secret technique, and severely injured their leader. He then single-handedly stopped the others, allowing us to escape safely!"
Although Qiao Jianmu only mentioned this tragic incident in one sentence, one can imagine his anger, despair, and helplessness at the time.
Li Ran remained silent, he didn't know what to say.
"Actually, I'm really stupid. What's wrong with becoming a warrior? I took it for granted. This world is too big and too dangerous!"
"People who have just become warriors are always full of youthful energy, thinking they are destined to be extraordinary, and do things without considering the consequences. Alas!"
"Xiao Ran, you are much better than Xiao Shitou and me in this respect. I see in you something that we don't have, calmness, humility..." Qiao Jianmu sighed.
After Qiao Jianmu finished speaking, he seemed to fall into his memories again, and the whole car was silent.
After a while, Qiao Jianshi's voice rang out:
"Brother, there's a group of red-haired pigs ahead, do you want to deal with them?"
Qiao Jianshi was a little hesitant. It seemed that he had tasted the sweetness of the red-horned ox last time and was not willing to attack these cheap beasts.
"Need I say this? Do you think you can come across good things like the red-horned ox every time? Don't be too greedy." Qiao Jianmu glanced at Qiao Jianshi and said.
The red-haired pig is a common ferocious beast in the mountains outside the city.
A red-haired pig can only be exchanged for tens of thousands of federal points, which is far less than a red-horned ox.
Li Ran has also eaten this kind of pork, but it was raised in farms and was cheaper.
But compared to ordinary poultry, it is also very expensive. It costs more than one or two hundred federal points to buy one pound!
But wild red pigs are more expensive and their meat is more nutritious.
Due to large-scale breeding and the extremely large number of them in the wild, the value of this ferocious animal, the red-haired pig, has been declining year by year.
Moreover, wild red-haired pigs have extremely bad tempers and are extremely aggressive. They can be injured if you are not careful, making them more difficult to deal with than red-horned cattle.
But Qiao Jianmu was right, it was not always possible to encounter such a good thing as a herd of red-horned cattle.
The mountains outside the city are too big!
Since the expansion of the blue planet, its circumference has increased from 40,000 kilometers to 4 million kilometers!
It used to be about 300 kilometers for Li Ran to return to his hometown Qiyang from Changhe, but now it is about kilometers!
It is almost three-quarters of the original circle of the blue planet!
The same is true for the mountains outside the city, which are much larger than imagined.
This is just outside the city, and it is still an area controlled by humans. The levels of the ferocious beasts are generally around one to three levels, and mid-level ferocious beasts rarely appear.
Most practitioners are active in these places, and if one wants to explore the wild and look for precious medicinal herbs, one must be a high-level practitioner of at least the 7th level King to be able to move freely.
But even so, you still have to be careful when you act. The wilderness is so vast that you might accidentally encounter some high-level exotic beasts and lose your life.
…
Qiao Jianmu and the others got out of the car and parked it directly!
"This time we rented a place with a very large space. It won't have any impact if we take this car away. We can easily fit ten more cars!" Qiao Jianmu laughed.
"Since Xiao Ran is here, we'll do the same as last time. Xiao Shitou, you go and seduce the red-haired pig. Zhiyong and Xiaowen, you'll be responsible for holding them back. Prioritize attacking the beast closest to Xiao Ran!"
"You guys have the longest arms here, Xiaowen and I do too. Anyway, generally speaking, we'll all just play support and protect Xiaoran's output!"
After Qiao Jianmu explained the fighting method, everyone crouched down and walked forward together.
This red-haired pig was much more sensitive than the red-horned ox and spotted Li Ran and the others before they got too close.
“Hmph…”
It made humming sounds to warn Qiao Jianmu and others, and it was also afraid of their strength.
“Hehe!”
