Chapter 356: Means of Breaking Hardness

Wei Yuan was drowsy all night, sleeping and waking, waking and sleeping.

Suddenly the door opened again, and the woman returned.

She brought a few pieces of firewood, two things similar to potatoes in her pocket, and her hands and face were frozen blue. She first warmed herself by the fire when she entered the house, and it took a long time to stop shivering.

After burying two pieces of firewood in the charcoal fire, she got on the bed, squeezed into the straw and fur, and squeezed with Wei Yuan.

Although firewood was added, the room was colder, it should be that night had fallen. On such a cold winter night, two people have to squeeze tightly together to have a little more warmth.

Wei Yuan felt inexplicably more at ease and fell into a deep sleep.

It seemed that not long after, the woman got up, drew a bucket of water, dissolved the mud, added chopped straw to the mud, and then blocked the cracks in the wall.

After sleeping for a day, Wei Yuan's spirit recovered a bit, but his body was even weaker. He knew that if this continued, his injuries would not recover, and he must eat something.

But the woman only gave him a bowl of soup for the whole day, and she didn't eat much either. It seems that food is extremely scarce in this place.

Wei Yuan said: "Can you take me out for a walk?"

The woman didn't ask much, helped Wei Yuan get out of bed, then wrapped him in the only old animal skin on the bed, and took him out.

As soon as he went out, the cold wind attacked, almost freezing Wei Yuan. He reluctantly released his spiritual sense, and then found that his spiritual sense seemed to be strongly suppressed here, and the range he could perceive was very small, but it was only a few zhang around him, and it was blurry, only roughly feeling some outlines and material properties.

Wei Yuan reached out and felt around while secretly releasing his spiritual sense to scan the surroundings.

This is a small house built on a hillside, with walls built of stones. There is a small courtyard around the house, and the courtyard wall is built of mountain stones, which is also dilapidated and cannot block any wild beasts. Around the courtyard, within the range of spiritual sense, there is only an old tree, and no other residents.

The courtyard wall was covered with thick snow, and some snow was swept in the courtyard. The hillside outside is mostly stone slopes, covered with snow in this season, and there is no vegetation.

"Will there be wild beasts, or pine nuts and potatoes nearby?"

"There are wild beasts in the forest on the mountain, but there are wolves. If you are lucky in the forest, you might find potatoes, but you can only dig them at noon. Except for that hour at noon, no one can get close to the forest, otherwise they will be caught by monsters."

"Monsters?" Wei Yuan asked.

"They are very terrifying, the village elder said they are actually already dead for thousands of years. But the longer they die, the more terrifying they are, fortunately they never approach the village, and they don't run fast, once you encounter them, run faster, and you will be safe when you return to the village."

This place is really not simple, Wei Yuan thought.

A place where undead monsters can appear mostly has extremely Yin caves. And undead monsters can live for thousands of years, so this cave must be extremely powerful, perhaps reaching the level of the lung cave. And undead monsters dare not enter the village, indicating that the village hides supreme treasures that can restrain them.

According to Wei Yuan's knowledge, undead monsters that can exist for more than a hundred years are already very terrifying. There are even thousand-year-old ones here? But considering the remoteness of the mountain village, it is also very likely that people exaggerated it.

"What kind of wild beasts are in the forest?"

"Wolves are more common, I heard there are snow leopards, a few years ago the children in the village were carried away by snow leopards. In addition, there are deer, wild boars, etc."

"Are there hunters in the village?"

"The two village elders used to be hunters, but they are both sick and haven't entered the mountain for half a month."

After listening, Wei Yuan felt that there should be ordinary wild beasts in the forest.

Wei Yuan said again: "Can you help me walk around the courtyard twice, my nose is very sensitive, and I can smell if there are wild beasts lurking nearby."

"You have this ability?" The woman was very suspicious, but still helped Wei Yuan, and slowly walked around the courtyard twice.

The small courtyard is not big, but the terrain is uneven, so Wei Yuan dragged a leg and moved step by step, pressing half of his body weight on the woman.

Although the mountain woman is thin, she has a lot of strength, and she can actually support him. After walking around the courtyard twice, Wei Yuan had a rough idea in his heart, and then casually pinched the woman's waist.

The woman was not annoyed, saying: "Why, can't wait?"

"No, just looking at your muscle and bone quality." After pinching, Wei Yuan knew that there was no trace of Body Forging on her body. The muscles and bones were ordinary human strength. Based on this inference, the wild beasts appearing in the forest should be ordinary wild beasts.

Returning to the courtyard, Wei Yuan was exhausted, sat down to rest for a while, and said: "Are there any tools? I'll make some hunting traps, and we can go hunting in the mountains tonight."

"There is a firewood knife, I have to borrow an axe. But hunting can only be done during that hour at noon. At other times, undead monsters will appear."

"Then tomorrow at noon. The axe must be used."

"Then wait, I'll go borrow it." The woman left in a hurry. After she walked a few zhang away, Wei Yuan couldn't perceive her whereabouts. When she came back, Wei Yuan picked up a few stones and smashed them one by one. Relying on his control of his body and understanding of material properties, he quickly smashed out two stone spearheads.

At this time, the woman came back with an axe. Wei Yuan took it, felt around in the firewood pile in the courtyard, pulled out two long pieces of firewood, used the axe to shave off the extra branches, and then tied the stone spearheads on.

At night, the two squeezed together to sleep, and they only ate one meal for the whole day.

The next day at noon, Wei Yuan and the woman came to the edge of the mountain forest, and Wei Yuan smelled a little fishy smell of wild beasts. Not long after, a fox wolf appeared from the forest and pounced on the two.

Wei Yuan used his left arm to block, and as a result, he was bitten by the wild wolf, Wei Yuan immediately raised his right hand and stabbed the wild wolf to death with a spear. The wild wolf struggled desperately, but couldn't even bite through the skin of Wei Yuan's left arm.

Wei Yuan found another small tree as thick as a bowl, used the little Dao power that had just recovered to lightly slash, cut the tree down, and dragged it back.

This afternoon, the two had a large pot of meat soup, a semi-finished wolf skin, and a few more pieces of firewood in the charcoal fire at night. It was not so cold when sleeping together.

Wei Yuan slept very soundly at night, very at ease.

With the wolf meat to replenish his strength, Wei Yuan's numb hands and feet had some feeling, and he could use a little more Dao power. Wei Yuan took the core of the small tree he brought back yesterday, turned it into a very straight four-foot wooden stick, and then carried it and the woman up the mountain.

This time the two went a little deeper, walked dozens of zhang into the forest, and squatted down.

This time, a pack of wolves appeared deep in the forest. When the pack of wolves rushed up, Wei Yuan pressed the woman face down into the snow, then raised his hand and installed a bayonet with cold light on the wooden stick.

!.

This was embodied by Wei Yuan with the little Dao power he had recovered. There was no other divinity, just turning the material properties into steel.

Although the pack of wolves was large, they were ordinary wild beasts and couldn't bite through Wei Yuan's skin at all. After changing the bayonet, Wei Yuan stabbed one by one based on feeling, and in the blink of an eye, he stabbed more than a dozen wolves to death.

After returning, the woman sent a few wolves to the village to distribute to other villagers. Taking advantage of her absence, Wei Yuan embodied a sharp short knife and processed all the remaining seven or eight wolves in one go.

For this dinner, Wei Yuan ate two wolves, and the woman ate two whole wolf legs.

At night, the bonfire was raging, and the two slept together, the woman's forehead slightly sweaty.

In the early morning, Wei Yuan woke up.

After eating a full meal last night, he felt that his state was a little better, his left leg could barely support his body, and his left hand also had feeling. Without having to drag a leg, Wei Yuan's movements were much faster.

At noon, Wei Yuan and the woman entered the mountain forest again. This time Wei Yuan held the wooden stick in his right hand and held the woman's hand in his left, letting her lead the way for him.

When going deep into the forest, they encountered two lone wolves again. However, as long as the wolf entered Wei Yuan's spiritual sense perception range, it was hard to escape death.

This time the exploration of the forest was also good, and they found a field of potatoes. When the woman was digging, Wei Yuan stood by to guard, and just at this moment, he suddenly heard the sound of branches and leaves shaking, a beast was running through the tree canopy, circling around the two.

Its position happened to be outside Wei Yuan's perception range, Wei Yuan asked: "Which direction is it in?"

"Top right, no, right, now it's left!" The woman called out a series of directions, but Wei Yuan couldn't judge the direction from what she said at all. At this time, the beast suddenly pounced down, pouncing on the woman, and pressed her down!

Wei Yuan immediately pounced on the beast, and there was a sharp knife in his hand, stabbing the beast fiercely!

While the beast was struggling in pain, Wei Yuan took the opportunity to roll over and dragged it off the woman. With a few tearing sounds, the beast's claws tore the woman's clothes.

This wild beast weighed several hundred jin and had great strength, and Wei Yuan was a bit struggling to grab it. It suddenly struggled violently, turned over, and bit Wei Yuan's throat!

Four sharp canine teeth pierced Wei Yuan's skin, struggling to open the muscles, and then stuck on the throat bone. As it exerted force to bite, the tooth tips suddenly cracked, and it let out a whimper in pain.

Wei Yuan had another short iron pipe in his hand, pressed against the beast, and with a bang, a big hole appeared in the beast's chest.

When going back, Wei Yuan dragged the snow leopard with one hand and held the woman with the other, moving step by step, and finally returned to the courtyard.

The woman's back was torn open by the snow leopard's sharp claws with four bloody wounds. Wei Yuan handled this kind of trauma very easily. He let the woman lie on the bed, took some herbs picked by the woman herself, ground them, and sprinkled them on the wounds.

These herbs looked useless, and in

Although the bit of vitality Wei Yuan took was insignificant, when used on a mortal like this woman, it was equivalent to the effect of bringing the dead back to life and regrowing flesh on bones. Wei Yuan applied the medicine with one hand while stroking the woman's back with the other.

The body of a woman from the mountains was indeed naturally strong; the arc of this spine was just right, capable of erupting with tremendous power with every flex and recoil.

The woman suddenly said: "Stop!"

Wei Yuan did not stop.

The woman immediately reached out and gave a fierce pinch to the tenderest flesh on Wei Yuan's waist!

Wei Yuan gasped in pain!

No matter how much he forged his body, he could not withstand this kind of profound technique of pinching and rotating one hundred and eighty degrees on such a small area.
