Chapter 85 [Negotiation]
"Is this what my father said in his letter?" Chen Musheng thought to himself. He held the hilt of the knife tightly and slowly pushed the blade over.
Soul-killing!
The dark purple sword body is carved with the name of the hunting knife like a stencil and silver hook.
This "Soul-Slaying" hunting knife is less than two feet long, but it is heavy, weighing at least 200 kilograms. The blade is four fingers wide, and the overall shape is smoothly curved. An extremely deep blood groove spreads from the tip of the knife to the hilt.
Chen Musheng had never heard of the material used, but the streaming light that appeared from time to time on the dark purple knife also proved that the iron used to forge this knife was extraordinary.
Compared to the "Thunder" that uses ordinary materials, the entire "Soul-Slaying" has a faint murderous aura and chill.
"Very good, it's just right for me." Chen Musheng waved excitedly, and a faint sound of wind and thunder. Originally, his cultivation level increased greatly, but the weight of thunder was no longer convenient, but the weight of the soul-slaying was just right.
"A knife is a good knife, but it should take some time to adapt." Chen Musheng muttered expectantly, turned around and walked out of the fence door. He needed to start preparing for the dry food for hunting the ferocious beasts.
———————
The second day.
Chen Musheng prepared everything, carrying a bag full of jerky, and was preparing to go nearby to find a place suitable for hunting ferocious beasts.
Inside the bamboo forest courtyard.
Qingwu leaned against the wall, holding a piece of bamboo in his hand, and the wood chips were scattered rustling, and he was still carving with a straight face.
"Uncle Ya, I'm leaving for a few days. Remember to roast something myself." Chen Musheng's waist and hips came closer and gave a slight order.
“…” Qingwu.
The expected reaction.
"Then, let's go now!" Chen Musheng roared solemnly in his heart, walked out with great strides, and his figure sank into the green bamboo forest...
The bamboo forest surrounding the courtyard is located in a very strange location. If you want to leave the bamboo forest courtyard, there is actually only one path. If people who don’t know the way, it will be difficult for them to come out again if they go wrong.
In recent months, Chen Musheng has already thought about the surroundings very clearly, so he passed through the bamboo forest smoothly.
"According to the marks left by my father, there are the most ferocious beasts within a hundred miles nearby. I don't have to go far. Let's take a look at the 'wild area' on the edge of the floating island. There are more ferocious beasts left alone in the fifth-level beasts there."
Chen Musheng moved forward steadily, but he was thinking secretly in his heart.
However, when he saw that he was about to walk out of the bamboo forest area, a 'corpse' suddenly appeared under the green bamboo on the side of the path.
"?" Chen Musheng stopped suspiciously and looked away carefully.
This is a slim girl, lying on the ground without moving, her dark red exercise clothes were dirty, and she looked particularly embarrassed.
"What a familiar back." Chen Musheng murmured in his heart, walked forward a few steps, and touched the woman's buttocks with the soul-killing scabbard.
"Um..." The girl was suddenly awakened, turned over and showed a pale, extremely weak face.
Xu Rou.
Chen Musheng was quite surprised and looked at the embarrassed girl on the ground: "It's you?"
"It's you?" Xu Rou Yinya raised her little face and looked at Chen Musheng with surprise in her beautiful eyes.
Xu Rou's token was also taken away by Gongsun Long. When Chen Musheng thought of this, he asked in an apology: "Come to me to exchange the antidote for the token?"
"I, I'm going to starve to death..." Xu Rou raised her dirty face, grinned her mouth, and suddenly burst into tears.
"..." Chen Musheng touched the corner of his mouth speechlessly. He did not approach immediately, and even came forward to help with mercy. He had already experienced the cunning level of this sinister woman.
Bang!
From a distance, Chen Musheng took off the water bag and half a bag of dried pork and threw it over.
Since Xu Rou followed Qingwu to the bamboo forest, she has been trapped in this strange forest for nearly half a month. She has already eaten up the food she carried with her and has struggled to find a way out. Finally, she fainted from the side of the road without tears.
"Woooooo..." Xu Rou had the urge to cry with joy, wiped her tears as if no one was around, and began to eat desperately, without the style of a mature woman.
Chen Musheng looked quietly and explained: "There is another very troublesome news to tell you that because I met a mountain warrior-level trialist before, and all the tokens have been taken away by him, so I cannot exchange antidotes with you for the time being. But don't worry, I will get the token back."
"What? You bastard, you want to kill me!" Xu Rou puffed her cheeks, and the jerky meat had not yet been swallowed, and she looked angry.
"Yes, the token is lost. I want to find a place to practice now and prepare to take back the token. Have you finished eating it? I will take you out now and our transaction will be delayed." Chen Musheng repeated it word by word, without any guilt in his heart. If it weren't for the woman's evil deeds, she would not have ended up now.
"Who is my token in hand?" Xu Rou cried and shouted for a while. Seeing that Chen Musheng ignored her, she finally calmed down and asked.
"Gongsun Long." Chen Musheng's eyes became sharp, and he lowered his voice and gritted his teeth.
"!"
Xu Rou was startled by the man in front of her suddenly became murderous. She slowly stood up, wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and said, "Okay, I'll go with you, and I must take back the token! If there is no way, you have to be responsible for finding ten tokens for me to offset the mistake!"
"No, I have my own plans. In short, I will get your token back together." Chen Musheng refused without hesitation. It was definitely not a good decision to bring a bottle of oil to the road.
Xu Rou raised her dirty pretty face and said angrily: "Are you familiar with the environment on the Forbidden Island? Even if you have the strength to defeat the mountain warrior, you will definitely find Gongsun Long?"
Chen Musheng frowned and asked, "Are you better than me?"
Xu Rou patted her chest that was not upright and said, "Very good! This girl is not as strong as you, but it is her second time participating in the Forbidden Island Trial, no less than you know. I know every terrain on the island clearly!"
Chen Musheng was quite surprised. Xu Rou is only seventeen or eighteen years old now. If she was a second trialist, she might be less than fifteen when she participated in the last round of forbidden trial.
A fifteen-year-old weak girl who can live on the cruel forbidden island for six months should always have her own unique place.
"Okay, let me ask you a question. I'm going to hunt a large number of fifth-level beasts to practice now. Do you know where there is a suitable place nearby?" Chen Musheng asked.
"This..." Xu Rou pursed her lips and pondered for a long time, and suddenly her eyes lit up and said, "I have it! I thought of a very good place."
Chen Musheng nodded with satisfaction and said, "Okay, take me there."
"Very good." As he said his usual catchphrase, Xu Rou looked at Chen Musheng distrustfully and said suspiciously: "But, it's very dangerous there. If his strength is slightly worse, he will definitely die."
Chen Musheng had a certainty in his eyes and repeated: "Take me there."
