Chapter 284 Killing the bear for bile 1
In the mountains and forests, a thin boy is fighting a black bear three times his size.
He had no weapon in his hand, so he used a wooden stick as a spear and struck the black bear directly in the face.
The black bear slapped him with its paw, its sharp claws embedding themselves in the stick. With a forceful flick, it sent him flying, crashing into a tree trunk.
He braced his hand against the tree trunk, spun around, and thrust the stick at the black bear's eye.
The black bear shielded its eyes with its hands and awkwardly backed away.
The boy kept poking its relatively vulnerable chest.
The black bear slammed its fist in a rage, and the wooden stick snapped in two with a loud crack!
Xiao Xuanwu, "..."
The black bear roared and swung its paw, lunging at him from above.
He grabbed the large tree behind him and used the momentum to flip over and hide behind it. The bear's paws slammed into the tree behind him, "Bang! Bang!"
The tree trunk swayed, and leaves fluttered down.
The black bear got angry and went around to the back of the tree.
Xiao Xuanwu then went around to the front of the tree, and the two of them circled around in the tree.
Enraged, the black bear struck the swaying tree with its paw again, uprooting it and causing it to fall.
Xiao Xuanwu never expected that the black bear could even knock down a tree.
In a moment of shock, the black bear's paw slammed down on his face.
He quickly raised his arms to protect his head, but was slapped down the hillside. The black bear leaped down, pounced on him, opened its mouth to reveal its fangs, and a stench filled the air as it bent down to tear at his head.
He was pinned down by the bear's claws and couldn't break free, so he raised his arms to protect his head.
The fangs embedded themselves in his arm.
Before his mouth could even close, a flash of cold light suddenly appeared.
Blood burst from the black bear's right eye instantly, accompanied by a deafening howl, "Roar!—"
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Xiao Xuanwu pulled out his bitten arm and frantically punched the bear's other eye.
Enraged, the black bear swung its paw at Xiao Xuanwu's head. "Ah! Mother, help! I don't want to die..."
In an instant, a powerful force pulled him backward.
Xiao Xuance picked him up with one hand and threw him onto a tree branch two meters high, where he was hanging.
Xiao Xuanwu leaned against the tree branch, his head drooping, meeting his cold, handsome profile. "Third Brother..."
"Hide up there."
"Oh..." Xiao Xuanwu had almost died, still shaken, he lay on the tree trunk, panting heavily, "Huff, huff..."
"Third Brother, be careful, it's been provoked."
Hearing the commotion, the black bear trudged towards them with heavy steps.
Xiao Xuance drew his soft sword from his waist and thrust it at the black bear. The black bear raised its paws to block, but its thick skin prevented the soft sword from penetrating, and the sword was bent under the pressure.
Its other claw slapped wildly at Xiao Xuance.
Xiao Xuance leaped and landed behind the black bear.
A flash of sword light slashed through its nape, "Tear!"
The soft sword is too soft; against the thick-skinned black bear, it can only wound its flesh and skin. The injury makes it even more ferocious, roaring wildly and waving its paws.
The black bear's vulnerable area is its chest, but the chest contains bear bile, which has extremely high medicinal value.
He wanted to preserve the complete bear bile for Yun Zhaoxue.
Xiao Xuance wanted to find an opportunity to stab the black bear's other eye with his sword.
But one of its eyes was injured, and it became wary.
Whenever he was about to stab, he would cover his eyes with his claws and back away.
First, engage it and wear it down before looking for an opportunity to strike.
"Third brother, let me help you."
Watching this scene from the tree, Xiao Xuanwu tore off a strip of cloth from the corner of his clothes, wrapped it around the wound on his arm, and grabbed a branch broken off from the tree as a weapon, sweeping it left and right across the black bear's face to distract him from his vision.
The black bear frantically dodged, grabbing onto tree branches and pulling at him, letting out rhythmic roars, as if calling to its companions, "Roar! Roar! Roar!"
"Bang bang bang!!!" A series of earth-shaking tremors came from the mountain, as if a giant beast had come down from the mountain.
Xiao Xuance sensed something was wrong, leaped into the air, and launched a series of kicks at the black bear's head. He slashed open its other eye with his sword, quickly pulled out the dagger that was stuck in its other eye, and plunged it into its neck. "Pfft!"
He grabbed Xiao Xuanwu and leaped onto a tree, soaring ten meters into the air in a few bounds.
Xiao Xuanwu held his breath, looking down to see what could have made such a commotion.
He spotted an even bigger black bear, almost twice the size of the one he'd just encountered. Had he run into that bear, he would have been dead long ago. Luckily, thankfully.
"roar!--"
At this moment, Xiao Mingshu and Lu Tingzhi arrived.
"Little Five, Third Brother, where are you?"
Black bears blend almost seamlessly into the darkness, making them difficult to spot unless you pay close attention.
Lu Tingzhi noticed a movement over there, and upon closer inspection, he saw a black mass.
Lu Tingzhi pulled Xiao Mingshu, who had walked ahead and was calling out to her elder brother and younger brother, behind him. "Fourth Miss, it's dangerous."
From the tree, Xiao Xuanwu waved to them, "Fourth Sister, Fourth Sister, we're up in the tree, we're fine. You all need to hide quickly, the black bear is over there, don't go over there..."
The tall black bear turned its head and stared at them, its eyes bloodshot, baring its teeth and revealing sharp fangs.
They rushed towards them quickly.
Both of them were stunned.
Lu Tingzhi suppressed his fear and shielded Xiao Mingshu behind him; the two of them closed their eyes in fright.
Xiao Xuance, who was in the tree, leaned down with his sword and thrust it straight into the black bear's head.
Black Bear felt a powerful, dry aura enveloping his head. Just as the sword tip touched his head, he quickly retreated to avoid a fatal blow.
Xiao Xuance's soft sword pierced the ground, bending into a bow shape, almost breaking under the pressure.
He quickly withdrew his hand, using the momentum to flip himself down and land in front of Xiao Mingshu and Lu Tingzhi.
The expected pain did not come. When the two opened their eyes and saw Xiao Xuanwu standing in front of them, they knew they were safe.
"What are you doing up here? Get down the mountain right now."
Xiao Mingshu spoke quickly: "Third brother, third sister-in-law said that bear paws and bear bile are valuable and should be kept intact as much as possible. Third sister-in-law gave us medicine, so we can help you."
"When he comes up, you two sprinkle the sleeping potion on your left and right sides. After you've sprinkled it, hold your breath, back up, and hide."
Xiao Xuanwu, who was in the tree, climbed down in a few steps and landed on a branch about two meters above the ground. He reached out to them and asked for a packet of sleeping pills. "Fourth Sister, give me a packet too. I'll just sprinkle it on its head from the tree."
The black bear smelled its mate's blood on Xiao Xuance's sword and went berserk again, lunging at him.
Xiao Xuance stood still, waiting for it to attack.
The other three seized the opportunity and quickly scattered the sleeping pills. Something was being thrown at him, and he frantically waved his claws, trying to throw the sleeping pills away, but he couldn't dodge the packet that Xiao Xuanwu threw at his head.
Xiao Xuance dealt with it alone under the tree.
The black bear stood upright, its giant paw slamming down with the force of Mount Tai.
Xiao Xuance dodged to the side, gripped his sword in the backhand, and slashed at the bear's belly with the blade, but only managed to make a shallow cut on the thick hide.
The black bear turned around, and its giant paw, accompanied by a gale, swept across again.
Xiao Xuance leaped over bushes and tree trunks with his toes, his clothes fluttering as he soared more than ten feet into the air, his bear paw brushing past the soles of his boots.
They deliberately slowed down their speed and the height of their leaps so that the black bear could catch up and reach them.
The black bear chased him for dozens of meters.
Wherever the black bear's paws went, the dry branches on the trees were smashed.
Xiao Xuance leaped onto the tree.
The black bear reacted a beat too slow, its still-waving paws slamming down on the tree trunk that had just passed beneath his feet, "Bang! Bang!"
Seeing him in the tree, it scrambled up the trunk with its claws, chasing and biting him, roaring, "Roar! Roar! Roar!!!"
