"Little Flower..." The old man frowned.
"Grandpa, Long Chen is my man and will be a member of the village in the future. He has the right to know about this," Xiaohua said righteously.
After hearing what Xiaohua said, the old man stopped talking, and the others drank the porridge in the bowl in three sips and returned to the house, leaving only Long Chen and the other two behind.
"That monster was sacrificed by us." Xiaohua looked at Long Chen's eyes and said.
"Sacrifice?" Long Chen was shocked. He heard this word for the first time.
"Yes, your injury was too serious at that time and you would die at any time. We have no choice but to send you to the God of Forest.
The God of Forest has cured you, but we need to sacrifice the rock leopard to it. This is why you can recover completely in just three days," said Xiaohua.
Long Chen's heart was shocked. There was actually a god in this world, which completely subverted his cognition.
"Not only that, your injuries are too serious. We sacrificed all the flesh and blood in the village except the rock leopard.
Even so, we still owe the God of Forest a lot of flesh and blood, and we need to continue hunting and repaying our debts," Xiaohua said quietly.
Only then did Long Chen understand why there was only porridge in the entire village and no meat was found.
Thinking of these strong men who need to rely on flesh and blood to improve their physical strength, but for themselves, they can only hunt on hungry days, and they can't help feeling sad.
"Long Chen, I don't want to make you feel guilty, but you are also a member of the village now. I think you have the right to know the truth," Xiaohua held Long Chen's hand and said softly.
The more Xiaohua said this, the more guilty Long Chen felt. Living in such a cruel environment as the imperial capital for a long time, this trust makes people feel extremely warm.
"Can you tell me about your forest god?"
Xiaohua looked at his grandfather and saw his grandfather nodding before telling Long Chen a fact that looked like a myth.
It turned out that the village had just been established, and their ancestors discovered a very magical tree. Once, their ancestors were attacked by monsters and almost died, but eventually escaped to the big tree.
A drop of juice dripped from the big tree, and their ancestors only took half a day to recover from the serious injuries on their bodies.
In order to thank the kindness of the big tree, they hunted a wild beast and placed it as a sacrifice before the big tree. They found that the big tree actually absorbed the wild beast in an instant.
Since then, whenever someone is injured, he will run to the big tree to treat it, and the big tree will heal them every time.
In order to show respect for the big tree, they called it the God of the Forest. Soon after, because they sacrificed many wild animals, the big tree actually began to communicate with them and made a contract with them.
It can heal the wounds of the village, but it requires sacrifice in return. As for the amount of the reward, it depends on the severity of the injury.
It's like a doctor is paying, but over the years, the God of Forest has not received much reward.
They didn't need too much sacrifice, but Long Chen was exceptional this time. The God of Forest offered an amazing price to save Long Chen.
"What did it want?" Long Chen asked.
Xiaohua looked at Long Chen and gritted her teeth and said, "Ten first-level monsters, one second-level monsters."
Long Chen's face changed. A first-level monster needed the whole village of Xiaohua to deal with it, and it also brought great risks.
As for a second-level monster, it requires the joint efforts of several blood coagulation powerhouses to kill. For Xiaohua and the others, it is an impossible task. The so-called forest god is simply forcing people to death.
Looking at the anger on Long Chen's face, Xiao Hua hurriedly said, "Long Chen, you must not have resentment towards the God of the Forest.
It is very fair. Over the years, no matter how much injuries we have suffered, he has not collected so much revenge. There is definitely a reason to ask for so much this time.
Besides, you are already well now. As long as we work together, we believe that we can repay the debts of the God of Forest soon.
Not to mention a second-level monster, even ten second-level monsters, we will agree. We can't watch you die, woosh..."
After talking about it, Xiaohua had already fallen into Long Chen's arms and burst into tears. The old man also sighed and said:
"Long Chen, the Tree God is absolutely fair. It charges such a high revenge, and it definitely makes sense. Don't be angry."
"I want to go and see the God of Forest," Long Chen said. He wanted to figure out what the God of Forest is.
As for the price it offered, Long Chen didn't care about it. Now his body has recovered. First-level monsters can be killed instantly, and second-level monsters can be taken as long as it does not escape.
The second-level monster is just equivalent to a strong man in the human blood coagulation realm. It’s just that the body of the monster is too strong. Humans of the same level are not opponents of the monster.
But who is Long Chen? Except for the powerful Yijin Realm, he is not afraid of any blood coagulation realm. He doesn't like to owe debts. If he is sure that this forest god is not a liar, he wants to pay off his debts as soon as possible. In addition, he wants to know what the so-called god is.
With the consent of Xiaohua's grandfather, Long Chen followed Xiaohua out of the village and headed straight for a mountain road.
Obviously Xiaohua is very familiar with this place and takes Long Chen all the way forward. Xiaohua carries a bow and arrow, and will stop from time to time to listen to the sounds nearby.
Sometimes I would take Long Chen to see some of the traps arranged around me to see if I had caught some wild beasts.
But what is disappointing is that I checked more than a dozen traps along the way, none of which was triggered and nothing was gained.
"It's really frustrating. There's no meat in the village these days. We urgently need meat to replenish our energy, otherwise it will be difficult to catch prey." Xiaohua sighed.
They are hunters, and meat consumption is a stimulant for them. They cannot eat meat for several consecutive days, which has a huge blow to their morale.
"It's okay, let me leave this task. The matter has arisen because of me, just let me solve it." Long Chen said with a smile.
Xiaohua's face changed and she said with anger: "What is this? Your business is mine, and it is also the whole village. How could we let you take risks alone?"
Long Chen smiled bitterly and simply closed his mouth, but he liked the atmosphere in the village, without any selfishness, living in peace, how luxurious this is in such a world of intrigue like the imperial capital.
This is a beautiful place, but Long Chen cannot stay here, and it is even more impossible to have a baby with someone in a confused manner.
His life was saved by the whole village. Now, because of the debts he owed to the whole village, he must repay them before leaving.
"Wait a moment"
While the two were walking, Xiaohua suddenly stopped and looked at a footprint on the ground, her face became extremely serious.
"A bear just came here. Judging from the size and depth of the footprints, it should be an adult bear with a body length of absolutely more than 1 zhang. Judging from the color of the soil, it just walked here an hour ago."
Xiaohua is worthy of being a veteran hunter. From one footprint, she saw so many things that the bear is a first-level monster, extremely violent and very difficult to deal with.
Even if they gather the strength of the whole village, they may not dare to compete with the violent bear. Their intentions of daring to attack the rock leopard are because although the Yan leopard is extremely fast, its attack power and defense power are not particularly strong.
Just pay attention to its movements. With more people, there is still a great chance to kill it.
But the Brutal Bear is different. The Brutal Bear is not a speed-type monster, but its defense and power are too terrifying. No matter how many of them are, they have no chance of winning.
"It seems we are going to take a detour," Xiaohua said cautiously.
"Why?" Long Chen was puzzled.
"Idiot, do you still need to ask this? We are not opponents of the bear at all. Even if the warriors in the village gather together, there is not much chance." Xiaohua said angrily.
"Who said that?"
"You...you are so angry." Seeing Long Chen's stupid look, Xiaohua was angry and anxious, but suddenly she stared at Long Chen with wide eyes:
"You don't want to kill the violent bear, right?"
"Yes," Long Chen looked at the little flower and said.
Xiaohua was stunned for a moment, and she suddenly remembered the scene of Long Chen fighting against the rock leopard. At that time, Long Chen was like a war god and could not be brave.
Afterwards, his grandfather said that Long Chen had suffered very serious injuries before meeting the rock leopard, otherwise he might have the ability to kill the rock leopard.
Now that she saw Long Chen's expression, she finally realized that Long Chen might really have the ability to kill a monster.
"Have you killed a first-level monster before?" Xiaohua asked tentatively.
"No"
Long Chen shook his head. It was his first time going out this time. He had eaten the meat of the monster several times, but it was all done by Aman.
However, Long Chen muttered in his heart: I have never killed a first-level monster, but I have killed a lot of powerful people in the blood coagulation realm.
Xiaohua shook her head and said, "Then forget it. Killing monsters does not depend on how high your cultivation level or how powerful you are, but on the right time, mastering skills and experience are very important.
Since you have no experience in killing monsters, we should not take risks. Hunters never do things that are unsure, otherwise they will become prey."
"If you don't do something you are unsure about? Then does it count when you take action to save me?" Long Chen said with a smile.
"Hate, you are not allowed to mention this matter in the future." Xiaohua's pretty face turned red, and she raised her fist and threatened.
"Okay, I won't joke with you anymore, don't worry, I won't joke about the lives of the two of us," Long Chen said seriously.
Seeing that Long Chen suddenly became serious, he completely lost his hippie smile as before, giving people a very safe feeling.
For some reason, seeing Long Chen's face made Xiaohua relax suddenly, and even the terrifying impression of the bear became much less indifferent.
With Xiaohua, an experienced hunter, the two of them walked forward for only more than an hour and saw a huge natural cave ahead.
In that cave, the violent bear, who was originally lying on the ground and sleeping in, suddenly opened its huge eyes and saw two people invading the territory he had just occupied.
"roar"
