Chapter 7 Alternative Hunting
  Nourishing~
  A drop of meat fat fell into the fire, and there was a burst of smoke.

The rabbit roasted on the stove gradually turned golden.

My stomach started growling again.

Chen Lin ignored it and didn't even turn his head. Instead, he looked at the bark charm with an intoxicated look on his face, showing a satisfied smile.

The mana in the body can draw eight more runes.

Just in time to draw another charm——

Zombie wood slow movement talisman, seven-stroke talisman.

A spell that makes one's movements stiff and sluggish.

It is of no use to monks, but when used on mortals, it is like being shackled instantly. Unless the spell fails, there is no way to break free.

In the same way, since humans can use it, so can animals!

Now that there is no bow and knife, it is a problem to catch the prey after discovering it. With this charm, you will not be afraid of futility.

"Okay, okay... all at once!"

Changing to a new piece of tree bark, Chen Lin inserted his right index finger into the pot again, hung it with rabbit blood and continued painting.

The process was equally smooth and error-free.

The golden light is restrained and the magic power is sealed.

After more than ten breaths.

The Zombie Wood Slower Talisman is officially released.

There was only a little bit of mana left in his body, but it could still maintain his body's temperature and keep him from freezing.

Chen Lin washed the rabbit blood off his index finger with water, and suddenly smelled a strong aroma of oil, and then realized that the roast rabbit on the shelf was already cooked...

Quickly remove it from the flames.

The body, which had not tasted meat for a long time, began to secrete a lot of saliva, preparing the way for the next big meal.

Hiss——

Tear off the juicy and tender rabbit meat and grill it until golden brown. There is a layer of hot fat hidden under the crispy skin, and the aroma of firewood lingers between your teeth just right...

A full sense of happiness rises from the bottom of my heart!
  The body like dry firewood is like seeing rain and dew, bit by bit, the vitality hidden deep in the depths is blooming.

Every bite is a comfort to the body and mind.

Chen Lin chewed slowly, and with the characteristics of a monk, he felt that the vitality in his body was being replenished.

He took action to cut off a small part and carried the "Flaming Wood Sutra".

Just a few breaths.

It's like opening a floodgate to release water.

This bit of essence quickly blends with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth that enters the body from the outside world, turning into wisps of fire mana that travels through the meridians, causing heat to rise throughout the body.

"The new mana just extracted can probably draw two runes."

"My total mana now reaches twenty runes."

"As long as you hunt for something big next, it will be as easy as eating and drinking to surpass the body of the immortal world..."

Chen Lin sucked the rabbit's bones and sucked out the marrow inside. The remaining vitality was used to replenish the body, not all to refine magic power.

After a moment.

The rabbit even had meat and bones, and everything that was edible went into its stomach.

My stomach was still unsatisfied and wished for more food.

Chen Lin could only chirp, stand up, pick up the two talismans he had just drawn, and prepare to go hunting.

Bring your only sharp weapon, the hatchet.

Then he went to the aunt's house next door to borrow a basket to hold the prey.

I knocked on the door and found that my aunt was not at home.

Only a thin boy of ten years old came to open the door, his nickname was "Carrot".

After hearing Chen Lin's intention, Xiaoluobo brought the best backpack at home, the one with a bamboo cover on the top, and shouted that he wanted to go hunting in the snowy mountains together.

Then after suffering a brain breakdown from Chen Lin, he became honest.

"You stay at home well. If something happens in the mountains, I won't take care of you. When I catch something in the mountains, I can give you two bites of meat when I come back..."

Trash the little carrot's hair.

Chen Lin waved goodbye to him and walked up the mountain alone.

It was almost noon, when the sun was supposed to be at its strongest.

But a gray cloud came in the sky, and the light was not as bright as in the morning.

Turning our backs to the howling cold wind, we once again stepped into Xiaojin Mountain.

The area near the mountain pass has long been cleared away by hunters from all walks of life, and there will be no decent prey at all.

This place is only suitable for cutting firewood.

So Chen Lin didn't stop for a step and entered the mountain from another way.

The twelfth lunar month is severe winter.

It was sunny near the pass, so the snow was only ankle-deep.

But after entering the mountain, the snow suddenly thickened, quickly piled up to the calf level, and would get deeper in the future. The temperature dropped suddenly.

It is no exaggeration to exhale and turn into ice.

Chen Lin walked in the vast snow, relying on his past memories and walking along a snow path.

If other hunters hunt in this situation, they can only rely on experience to search for the traces and footprints left by various animals in the snow, and then follow them all the way.

Even if everything goes well, the prey is found.

Often a chase through waist-deep snow is also required.

There are not that many sharp archers in the world.

There are too few people who can easily kill prey from dozens of meters away.

Especially in the snowy mountains in the cold winter, the joints are so frozen that it is difficult for ordinary people to draw the bow.

Except for the traps.

In fact, more hunters in the snowy mountains can only rely on human endurance advantages to pursue their prey until their physical strength collapses and they can no longer run.

Sometimes, a roe deer weighing several dozen kilograms requires several people to outflank it, and it takes nearly a whole day to catch up with it... Once it accidentally gets injured or gets lost along the way, it's hard to end well.

The snow-capped mountains may seem magnificent, but they are like a ruthless cold knife that can stab into people’s bones at any time!
  Chen Lin didn't dare to go too deep.

Although he successfully entered Taoism, he was only a young monk. Moreover, he only mastered talismans and only had two talismans on his body. He might not be able to withstand any extreme situation.

"Looking for someone to explore, Ji!"

Take out the bark charm and evoke the runes on it.

There is brilliance flowing in the blood pattern, and the spiritual power contained in it is slowly released...

Ordinary people can't see it.

However, Chen Lin could feel the spiritual power of the spell spreading around. Anyone who could breathe would absorb the spiritual power, and then he could follow the clues formed by the spiritual power to find it.

The first one to be found was himself...

As he breathed, the surrounding spiritual energy was sucked into his body, forming a clear link from the spell to his nasal cavity.

"Ignore this!"

"The effectiveness of this charm can last for about two quarters of an hour. If it is not used for a long time, the talisman will completely disappear in three or four hours, and its spirituality will be completely lost."

"So you can only draw the spell before going up the mountain, and you can't store it in advance."

"Rabbit blood and tree bark are not spiritual enough."

"Ordinary spells won't lose any of their effectiveness if left for a month... You still have to find better spell materials in the future, or simply make them yourself."

Chen Lin pondered his thoughts and walked casually in the snow.

There is no need to pay attention to animal trails like other hunters.

With the help of the person-finding and energy-finding talisman, he can sense most living creatures within a radius of a hundred feet.

Strands of spiritual power threads intertwined like a spider web, radiating out in all directions with the charm he placed on his chest as the center.

Only he can see these threads.

"This thread is as thick as a hair, and it's connected to the tree... This thread is almost as thick as a chopstick, and it's actually connected to the same tree?"

Chen Lin raised his head and squinted his eyes to look at the tree.

The other end of the hair thread seems to be just connected to a tree burr, tightly attached to the straight tree trunk, and it cannot be seen that it is a living thing.

But since there are spiritual threads connecting it, it means that the thing is breathing and must be a living thing!

After watching it closely for more than ten breaths, I noticed the slight trembling.

Chen Lin finally saw the true face of that "stubby kid".

Eight-eyed snow spider!

It is completely white and extremely poisonous, and would kill an ordinary person if it comes in contact with it.

But the venom can be used as a medicine, and it can be sold alive for fifty bucks at the mountain product market in the county town.

Very low value for money.

"This will come after I draw a charm to avoid poison later."

Chen Lin took a step back.

As for the other thread connected to the tree, he also figured out what it was.

"The white jade squirrel is probably spending the winter in a tree hole. It will molt before winter, and its roots are as white as snow. At this time, the value of its fur is quite high. A hole with a hole is worth forty yuan, and a hole without a hole is worth eighty yuan..."

The squirrel's tree hole was extremely hidden. If it weren't for the talisman that directly pointed out the location, he wouldn't have been able to tell that there was a large sum of eighty coins hidden above his head.

"It's a pity that I don't have a bow and bullet, the tree is too tall and straight, and there is a poisonous spider guarding it."

"Fortunately I have other options..."

Chen Lin took a deep breath.

Turning around in the snow, the surroundings were silent and silent, as if all life was extinct. Ordinary people didn't know where to look for prey.

But when he opened his eyes, he clearly saw dense spiritual power threads connecting everywhere, no less than a hundred!

These ones,

They are all his prey!
