For a long time after the fifth update of CoM, the sky was still pitch black.
However, Chen Sheng could not stay in bed just because it was already early.
After the rooster crowed at the fifth hour, he quietly got up, walked outside and started to breathe and practice Qi. He practiced the secret script of Mohism taught by the teacher. This is a qigong that emphasizes breathing and practicing Qi. After practicing for half a month, he found that his body gradually became lighter and his strength seemed to increase a lot.
It’s a pity that there are only methods of breathing and practicing qi in this secret book, but no martial arts tricks, which disappointed Chen Sheng a little. Fortunately, he used to be a military doctor in the special forces army and usually practiced a lot of self-defense skills with these guys, which can be regarded as making up for the shortcomings in the secret book.
After half an hour of practicing Qi, his whole body became energetic. After Chen Sheng let out a breath of turbid air, he felt refreshed. The sky had begun to become bright. At this time, Wei Liao also came out of the room. Seeing Chen Sheng so conscious and hardworking, Wei Liao was very pleased.
"Sheng'er, today's weather is good. Let's go up the mountain to hunt." Wei Liao finished washing up and told Chen Sheng. In fact, hunting is fake, and the assessment of Chen Sheng's progress in recent days is real.
"Okay!" Chen Sheng immediately responded, the weather was getting colder, and Chen Sheng saw that the teacher had no autumn and winter clothes, so he had long been thinking about going to the mountains to hunt. This was a good time for hunting. The beasts grew and the fur was thick, which was the best time to make leather jackets by nitrogen. Chen Sheng had long wanted to hunt a few furs to make a few leather jackets for the teacher. Seeing that the teacher took the initiative to make such a request, Chen Sheng was naturally happy.
Since the rice fields in Zhang Mansion were harvested, Chen Sheng had been idle for a few days and did not go out to find a job. He only stayed at home to listen to Wei Liao's teachings. Wei Liao taught him, which made Chen Sheng linger. In his spare time, he went to Zhang Mansion and agreed to Zhang Liang's employment to be a veterinarian in the caravan. However, according to Wei Liao's request, Chen Sheng suggested to Zhang Liang that his teacher would also have to accompany the caravan. Originally, Chen Sheng did not want Wei Liao to be exhausted by the caravan, but under Wei Liao's insistence, Chen Sheng could only obey the teacher. He knew that the teacher did not want him to lose his studies on the way. Endless gratitude arose in his heart.
Zhang Liang naturally allowed Chen Sheng to make such a small request. He was eager for Chen Sheng to ask for more. In this way, Chen Sheng owed others more favors. When Chen Sheng needed Chen Sheng to do something in the future, Chen Sheng naturally had no reason to refuse.
After breakfast, the master and apprentice packed up their dry food tools and went into the mountain.
The nearby mountains and forests were frequently visited by masters and apprentices and other hunters. Except for hares and pheasants, other larger animals were difficult to find. So the masters and apprentices discussed it and decided to advance into the deep mountains.
The pine forests in the mountains are lush. However, the shrubs gradually become yellow and yellow. When the wind blows, the leaves fallen leaves are colorful. Seeing this, Wei Liao was very moved and said, "I will know that the pines and cypresses will wither after the cold." This was Confucius' words, and when Wei Liao spoke, there was a sense of vicissitudes and emotion.
Hearing the teacher's feelings, Chen Sheng almost said the sentence "The wildfire cannot be burned out, and the spring breeze will grow again." Fortunately, he held it back and did not talk. Otherwise, the teacher would be shocked again. During these days, when he spent time with the teacher, when he talked to the ancient teacher, he often plagiarized the famous sayings and aphorisms of his predecessors, which made the teacher admire him very much. However, whenever Chen Sheng was praised by the teacher, he despised himself for his behavior. So try his best to restrain himself and not to sigh too much.
Along the way, the two saw ordinary pheasants and hares, and they were disdainful of hunting. They hoped to meet a few wild beasts with rich fur, such as foxes and weasels. However, Wei Liao hoped that it would be even better if he could meet one or two tiger bears. However, Chen Sheng did not agree with the teacher's fanatical idea. When encountering a beast like a tiger, a black bear, both of them would probably not be able to take it.
"Teacher, let's take a break first?" After the two of them wandered around the mountains for a while, the noon had arrived. The sun shone through the yellow leaves and fell on the ground, looking extremely soft.
"Okay." Wei Liao nodded. The two of them wandered around the foot of the mountain for so long, but no beast of choice appeared. The two were not discouraged. They knew that the beasts were active frequently in the morning and dusk, so now they were just looking for some places where wild animals were prone to appear and waiting for the arrival of dusk.
"Teacher, there is a stream four or five miles in front of me." Sitting on a stone, Chen Sheng took out the dry food and handed it to Wei Liao, and said, "It only takes half an hour to get there. In the evening, there should be many wild beasts there to drink water." Chen Sheng had been involved in this area when he was hunting before, but this area was infested, so Chen Sheng only dared to wander around the stream. He didn't dare to go in any further, even the deepest Lin Mang.
Wei Liao nodded, but his eyes looked around with vigilance, as if he felt something was wrong around him.
"What's wrong, teacher?" Seeing that the teacher didn't say anything, Chen Sheng was very curious. Although the teacher was not a talkative person, he would evaluate Chen Sheng's experience in his cultivation when he had time. Often, one or two sentences benefited Chen Sheng a lot.
"Sheng'er, are you there? There seems to be something wrong with this area." Wei Liao stood up with a serious look on his face and looked around him.
"Isn't it right? Chen Sheng's heart tightened. He frowned and immediately said, "Teacher, it's too quiet here."
No matter how quiet a forest is, it will definitely have its own specific noise. For example, birds and insects are chirping, which represent the tranquility and tranquility in the forest.
However, this area was dead silent. Except for the occasional mountain wind blowing the leaves, there was no other sound. Chen Sheng knew that even in the cold winter, there was still a specific sound in the forest. It might be the sound of a jackdaw or the roar of a wild beast, which meant that the vitality of the entire forest was still there.
"Yes, it's too quiet." Wei Liao nodded. Wei Liao was over 80 years old, and when he was a young man, he was studying in the mountains and had only more experience in walking in the forest than Chen Sheng. "There should be beasts nearby." Wei Liao made his judgment.
"What beast?" Chen Shengdaqi. Even if a few tigers appear here, there will not be such a bleak atmosphere. What is the beast in the teacher's mouth?
Wei Liao shook his head and did not answer Chen Sheng's question. This made Chen Sheng feel stranger, but the hunting knife hanging around his waist pulled down and held it tightly in his hand.
Chen Sheng did not dare to be careless, so he untied the longbow, slapped an arrow, and made a posture that could attack at any time.
"Rush..." A sound of crushing the fallen leaves came from the right. Chen Sheng's ear moved and signaled the teacher to pay attention.
Although Wei Liao was old, his hearing did not decrease and he immediately realized the danger. He immediately made a gesture to Chen Sheng, and the two immediately bowed and retreated, hid behind a huge rock, and carefully hid their bodies. Before the identity of this beast was known, the two dared not act rashly.
