Xi xi suo suo (ruffling sound), a small figure figure walked about in the woods.
The Fang Feng Gen grew on the cliffs of the Thousand Beast Grave Mountain. In order for Yun Sheng to gather the medicine, she must first pass through the primitive forest.
As the mountains gradually became steeper, the forest became more inaccessible. In some places, dead leaves piled up as high as up to the waist of a person. If a person accidentally stepped into it, then it wouldn't be good.
Yun Sheng was carrying a medicine basket. The sleeves on her pants were tied down tight with a rope while in one of her hands held a cane, the other clearing the leaves blocking the road.
" Xiao Hei, don't follow me, go back," Yun Sheng walked a steps, heard footsteps behind her and stopped.
Behind, the already recovered puppy ( Xiao Hei ) ran behind Yun Sheng.
The puppy's resilience was surprisingly good, especially after eating some of the beast but. Within only two nights, it had already recovered its strength.
Maybe it was because of the beast leg meat but no matter how many times Yun Sheng had tried to shoo it away, Xiao Hei refused to leaved. Early this morning when Yun Sheng went up to the mountains to collect herbs, it stubbornly followed Yun Sheng.
"Leave immediately," Yun Sheng pretended to be angry. The mountain is dangerous and Xiao Hei was only just an ordinary puppy.
Seeing that Yun Sheng was angry, the puppy drooped his head and slowly ran down the mountains.
Seeing that the puppy had left, Yun Sheng was assured to go up the mountains.
In her past life, she had went into the mountains several times to gain experience collecting medicine. Hence, she was very skilled in collecting herbs in the mountains.
Although Master Yang allowed her to take Ye Beiming with her, Yun Sheng had immediately refused this proposal.
That boy, was still young and already had a belly of bad water (up to no good). Yun Sheng still wanted to live more than twenty years. Adding the years from this live, she almost lived for thirty years. She was played by him two times already and her heart was itching with hatred.
Besides, no matter how skilled the other person was, he still was blind ah! She had no time to look after another person in the mountains.
Yun Sheng's understanding of this world still wasn't enough.
She didn't know that once a person reaches up to a certain level of martial arts, their other senses would be dozens times sharper. Who taking care of who might not necessarily be as how Yun Sheng thought.
Yun Sheng picked some fang feng cao. Surprisingly, this trip was smooth and he had occasionally encountered some low leveled demonic beasts.
Suddenly, Yun Sheng heard a noise behind her. She was on guard and looked back.
Along the way, Yun Sheng left several traps in the mountains that had been made by Uncle Tie in hope of catching some prey.
The time was still early. Thinking of that strange tomb next to the moonlight grass, Yun Sheng decided to go look for it. She followed the road based on her memory and found that abandoned beast grave.
Near the beast grave, moonlight grass were surprising growing extremely well.
"Let's go back to the mountains to see. If my luck is good, then I can get some more food for the family and the puppy," Yun Sheng filled up the basket with herbs and headed back following the road she came up from.
Shortly after she left, a figure stood quietly on the beast grave.
It was Ye Beiming.
Yun Sheng didn't know that shortly after she left the temple, the "bad boy" in her mouth – Ye Beiming- had virtually acted as her bodyguard.
Compared to how guarded Yun Sheng was, Ye Beiming was a lot more relaxed. The rugged mountain road under his feet was like a flat ground, running faster than a rabbit.
Most of the time, he was ahead of Yun Sheng by a few steps. From time to time, he would stop for a moment and cleaned up the second and third-leveled demonic beasts leaving behind a few first and second leveled beasts for Yun Sheng to train with.
At the end after Ye Beiming determined that there were no threatening beasts nearby, he would lie on the tree to rest for a moment, waiting for Yun Sheng's small short legs to catch up.
Under the guard of Ye Beiming, Yun Sheng naturally had a relatively smooth trip.
"Moonlight grass? This small wildcat usually is so clever. This time she really made a mistake. The moonlight grass compared to this abandoned beast grave simply is insignificant," Ye Beiming walked up to the beast grave and a wet wind smell drifted out of the tomb.
Ye Beiming stood at the mouth of the cave for a while and after reaching up to a wet spot, he thought, "There must have been a newborn beast here a few days ago. The newborn beast's level is low ah".
Under the foot of Ye Beiming, a green magic array appeared and several green wind elements poured into the den of the beast.
The wind had the sharpest sense, it can let a person quickly detect the situation inside the cave.
The cave was mysterious, danger unknown. Entering alone would pose too high of a risk. Ye Beiming was still young. Yet, it was unknown where he had learn this cautious and careful manner from.
If Yun Sheng saw this scene, then she will definitely be dazed with her mouth gaping with a huge "O".
It appeared that this Ye Beiming was not only a dual cultivator but also was a multi-element magician.
It was unfair. A youth that hasn't past ten years old would actually be this gifted. What's more commendable was that his temperament was like an adult, such calmness. Simply an evil doer ah!
Yun Sheng at this time had already headed back down the original road to check the traps she had laid down for beasts.
As a physician, Yun Sheng was well aware of the importance of eating during her younger years. After eating the beast meat, she thought to improve their diet and build up her body.
At this time,, she heard a cry of a young beast. The sound of the source came from the trap that Yun Sheng had placed down earlier.
A level 2 small demonic Gold Rhino Pig was caught in the trap.
Yun Sheng's traps were specially process with a small amount of mandolin juice applied to one of the deadliest iron thorn, making it sharper than a general trap.
After Yun Sheng found the little pig, she wasn't in a hurry to get close to it. She first crept around and carefully observed it.
This little pig was apparently out searching for food. After not paying attention, it had accidentally stepped on the trapper.
Its hind legs were pierced by sharp iron thorns and blood flew out from its wounds. It issued a mournful cry and struggled a few hard times. After the mandolin juice took effect, it immediately fell to the ground, unconscious.
"It seems like we have a blessing today," Yun Sheng can't help but be happy. The Golden Rhino Pig wasn't common. This kind of beast usually was in a pair of male and female together. Its stature was small and it seemed to be a single. Capturing back will definitely be a good meal.
Yun Sheng went forward to open the trap.
Just when Yun Sheng crouched down and tried to open the trap, she heard a "whoosh" behind as an arrow shot shot across her shoulder.
Yun Sheng reacted quickly and tumbled away, narrowly avoiding the arrow.
Several strong youths sprang from the bushes beside.
The leader was a person with a longbow dressed in clothings that of hunters. They were Yun Sheng's old acquaintances who she had fought against by the village hillside – Lei Hu and his gang of friends.
After returning to the village, Lei Hu, who had been in the martial arts hall for a long time decided to go up the hill to fight a beast so that he could return to show off in the martial arts hall.
Lei Hu was also clever. He heard from the old hunter that he could only capture some higher leveled beasts in the thousand beast grave mountain. Thus, he encouraged a few village children to go up with him to the mountains.
Who knew that not long entering the mountains, they saw Yun Sheng catching a pig.
If it had been someone else, Lei Hu could only envy but when he saw that it was the trash Yun Sheng who caught the pig, his heart was extremely jealous and surfaced some evil thoughts.
There were no people around. Yun Sheng was the only person there. Heard that she became the temple's assistant kid so she must be in the mountain to gather herbs.
In such a deep forest, this trash can't be this lucky. The village chief can't save her again.
"Little waste, it's you again. This little pig is mine. If you're sensible then hand it over to me" Lei Hu grinned and waved his fist, threatening Yun Sheng to hand over the prey.
