"There is not much food left in the village. This time we need to hunt more animals. We have to go back to the mountain in a few days."
"What? In a few days, it looks like winter is coming. When the snow closes the mountain, we can only dig tree roots."
"What should I do? Without enough food, many lonely old people and children in the village are afraid it will be difficult to survive this cold winter."
The crowd spoke one after another, and most of them looked worried.
They are all adult men in the village. Many of them have wives, and a few have several children alone. Even if they don''t consider other villagers, they have to consider their mother-in-law and children.
"Although it is dangerous in the depths of the mountain, it is nothing compared with the cold winter. We must not let the old people and children in the village starve and suffer from cold."
"Go on, continue into the mountain."
"Brother Shi, have a word!"
Many people looked at Shi Linhu and waited for his decision.
Shi Linhu frowned. He grew up in the village. He knew the terrible winter. A flash of determination flashed in his eyes and said, "follow me, let''s go deeper."
"Brother Shi, it doesn''t seem very peaceful in the depths of Tianxuan mountain recently. Let''s..."
The tall and thin young man in animal skin jacket hesitated.
"Make a fuss, isn''t it that there was an earthquake a few nights ago, and I didn''t see groups of monsters rushing out from the depths of the mountain? What''s not peaceful?"
Some people are careless and careless.
"Thin monkey, if you are afraid, go back to the village now and sleep in the pit with your mother-in-law."
A big man with strong arms and shirtless upper body said to the tall and thin young man.
This immediately caused many people to burst into laughter.
The young man''s name is sun Dabao. He has always wanted to have a child since he got married, but he doesn''t know what''s going on. His mother-in-law can''t conceive even if he tosses about in the pit.
On the contrary, he has changed from strong to skinny, and has been nicknamed a thin monkey.
"Laugh, what''s so funny?"
Sun Dabao jumped with anger and his face turned red.
"It''s just a joke. How can you get so angry?"
"Yes, your boy is too sensitive."
Some people kept talking, which made sun Dabao more angry. He almost roared, "shut up, didn''t you do that with your mother-in-law?"
"Do it, but we all do it at night. It''s not like you, boy. We also do it in broad daylight. The voice is loud. We can hear it from a distance."
Someone said so, which immediately made many people laugh.
"Deceive people too much. If you make fun of me again, I''ll be anxious for you."
Sun Dabao was furious.
"Well, be quiet. If we attract any powerful monster, we''ll all die."
The stone forest tiger frowned and shouted.
Hearing the speech, the people immediately shut up. Shi Linhu was the most cultivated and powerful among them. All the people were convinced of him.
"Everyone follow me closely. Let''s move forward thirty miles."
Shi Linhu did not delay. He took off the iron sword hanging around his waist and walked forward with the sword on guard.
The others did not speak and followed.
Along the way, the sun shines through the canopy, leaving spots on the ground.
At the same time, jackals, wolves, tigers and leopards occasionally appeared in the mountain forest, but they all did not pose a threat to the people. Instead, they reaped a lot. Many people had the body of a wild animal on their shoulders.
In addition to the stone forest tiger, there are several people who practice martial arts in the yuan territory, but the highest cultivation is the five Heaven in the yuan territory.
As for the rest of the people, they are all four or five heavy warriors in the quenching environment. Due to their hard cultivation and the relationship between hunting and fighting with various wild animals for many years, their flesh is very strong, and they don''t feel hard to resist the body of a wild animal on their shoulders.
"Thanks to brother Shi this time, if brother Shi didn''t lead the team, we wouldn''t have such a rich harvest."
"Yes, brother Shi is the first expert in our village. Although there are several experts at the peak of Ningyuan territory in other villages, they are not brother Shi''s opponents."
"Alas, if he hadn''t stayed to take care of the people in the village, brother Shi would have been a master of Zhengang territory and even Vientiane territory."
At this moment, everyone is very excited and grateful to Shi Linhu.
Over the years, although Shi Linhu yearned for the outside world, he never left the village, which was highly respected by them.
"Shh, don''t talk."
Suddenly, Shi Linhu turned his head and made a silent gesture.
"Brother Shi, there is danger ahead?"
Sun Dabao suddenly changed his face. Monsters are very dangerous in Tianxuan mountain. In recent years, it is more and more difficult to hunt animals in the peripheral areas. Adult men in their village have to go deeper into the mountains and forests to hunt. Therefore, people die miserably at the mouth of monsters from time to time.
"It''s all right. It''s a low-level monster. Take your time. I''ll go and kill it first."
After leaving a word, Shi Linhu jumped up like a cheetah and disappeared into the dense forest in front of him.
"Let''s go and help brother Shi."
"Yes, we have a large number of people, and that''s just a low-level monster. We should be able to help."
After a burst of discussion, the people accelerated their steps and chased the stone forest tiger.
After about a dozen breaths, a group of people found the stone forest tiger in front of them. What surprised and puzzled them was that the stone forest Tiger stood still, as if frightened by something.
"What happened?"
"Go and have a look."
A group of people held their breath, cautiously came behind Shi Linhu, looked forward, and saw a unicorn wolf with a strong evil spirit hovering there tens of meters away, circling around a baby wrapped in swaddling clothes, but never dared to open his mouth.
"What''s the... Situation?"
"Hell, isn''t the one horned wolf famous for its bloodthirsty and dare not eat the baby?"
"Let''s not talk about this first. What''s the matter with the child? He was ruthlessly abandoned in the inaccessible mountain."
"Brother Shi, what shall we do now?"
After a low voice, everyone turned their eyes to the stone forest tiger.
Yes, the unicorn is a low-level monster, but it is a very ferocious existence. Not to mention its sharp claws and teeth, the sharp unicorn on its head can easily pierce the body protection strength of the martial arts in the Ningyuan territory, which is very difficult to deal with.
"Stand back and I''ll kill the beast first."
The stone forest tiger waved his hand, and saw that the one horned wolf could not bear it. His strong two hind legs kicked, opened his fangs and big mouth, and suddenly jumped at the baby in the swaddling clothes.
"Beast, you want to die."
The stone forest tiger was surprised and angry. He rushed forward with vigorous steps, but before he could get close, there was a shocking scene between him and sun Dabao. He saw the black light on the baby''s eyebrows flash away, and then the ferocious one horned wolf died.
Yes, he died suddenly and fell to the ground with a bang, splashing mud, stones and dead leaves all over the ground.
Rao is so, but no mud, stone and dead leaves can get close to the baby. How strange this scene looks, it makes sun Dabao and others feel a little hairy.
In a brief silence, sun Dabao retreated and shouted, "my God, that baby must be a demon!"
"Don''t get close, or you may lead to accidents."
Others were equally frightened.
"Nonsense, there is no demon in the world. The child must have a distinguished family background and have some secret treasure to protect himself."
The stone forest tiger shouted and walked over.
"Brother Shi, never."
Someone changed his color and said that a fierce one horned wolf was killed by the baby in the twinkling of an eye. If the stone forest tiger approached, something might happen.
Shi Linhu''s footsteps, to tell the truth, he was also a little afraid.
"Brother Shi, get back quickly. The baby is by no means a good kind. Once it gets close, the consequences are unpredictable."
Sun Dabao was burning with anxiety.
Shi Linhu is good at everything. He is naturally bold and fearless. When he was young, he dared to go deep into the mountains alone to pick elixirs.
Save?
Or not?
Shi Linhu''s eyes flickered, but seeing the baby''s white and tender face and innocent big eyes, he finally strode over and picked up the baby with his swaddling clothes.
"Hoo, it''s okay."
Sun Dabao and others were relieved.
"It''s really a secret treasure to protect my body. As long as I don''t mean any harm, I won''t be killed."
Shi Linhu muttered to himself. He looked down at the baby in his swaddling clothes, smiled and said, "no matter who your little guy''s parents are, since I met them, I''ll kindly adopt you. If your parents come to find you in the future, you can go with them."
Hearing the speech, the baby was just babbling, but he couldn''t speak. His big black and bright eyes turned with a strong spirit, which made Shi Linhu secretly praise: "what a clever doll!"
Thinking so, he lifted up his swaddling clothes and looked at it. He laughed and said, "I''m still a man with a handle. I''m sure I can become an indomitable man when I grow up."
Then he turned and said, "the hunting harvest is good. We don''t have to go further. Let''s go back to the village."
"Brother Shi, do you really want to adopt the child?"
Sun Dabao asked hesitantly. He always felt that the boy in Shilin tiger''s arms was close to the evil door. If he brought it back to the village, he might cause some disaster.
"I''m bent on cultivation. Up to now, I don''t even have a mother-in-law. It''s better to take this child as an adopted son."
The stone forest tiger smiled and strode out of the mountain.
The others were stunned and hurried to catch up.
About two hours later, they returned to the village. The village is called Anle village, which means peace, happiness and no disaster.
On learning that Shi Linhu brought back a baby boy who somehow killed a one horned wolf, many villagers avoided the baby boy and secretly said he was a demon baby, which would bring uncertainty to the village.
