Martial Arts and Longevity: Starting from the Spiritual Beast Picture

Chapter 13
After confirming that Xiong Wei was asleep, the four of them slowly moved back until they were some distance away from the giant tree before getting up and returning to the nest.

"How about it, do it today or tomorrow?"

Zhu Dachun rubbed his face, took a breath into his hands, and said excitedly.

Zhou Paotou said with a "hehe" smile: "The beast has just returned to the barn and hasn't slept well yet. It's too hasty to do it now."

"Besides, seeing that it's getting dark, it's better than tomorrow, what do you think?"

"You are the head of the cannon, listen to you." Liang Song agreed.

"Then tomorrow."

Zhao Lin was not from Orion, so he couldn't say more, but he also felt that what Zhou Paotou said made sense, so he agreed with it.

Each of them brought three days' worth of rations, and since they killed the warehouse tomorrow, they didn't need to save any more food, so they simply ate a meal.

With nothing to do after dinner, the four of them took turns to describe the action steps for tomorrow in order to keep them in mind.

After speaking, everyone yawned and fell asleep one after another.

The next day, the four of them woke up almost at the same time, ate something, packed their equipment, and walked out of the den.

"The God of the Mountain is always on top, please bless us to fight the siege safely and kill Xiong Bozi smoothly..."

Before going out, Zhou Paotou, Zhu Dachun, and Liang Song bowed to the statue, muttering something.

Zhao Lin did as the Romans did, and read a few words after him.

Before killing the position, they still have some preparatory work to do.

The first is to place a tripwire along the escape route.

The trip wire was tied to the iron cone, inserted into the frozen soil and fixed on both sides.

A total of five tripwires were arranged.

Then they placed eight large beast traps around the giant tree.

Both methods are to slow down Xiong Wei's pursuit and buy time for escape.

When they were ready, the four of them walked lightly to the giant tree where Xiong Wei was squatting.

In the early morning, the forest was extremely quiet, and Xiong Wei's rhythmic snoring came from the tree hole.

Zhou Paotou took out a long rope with a small hammer tied to the end of the rope.

He threw the hammer head high into the air, wrapped it around a thick tree branch below the tree hole, pulled it twice, felt that it was tightly entangled, and then climbed up with the rope.

Climbing up the branch, Zhou Pao waved at Zhao Lin.

Zhao Lin grabbed the rope and climbed up.

Zhou Paotou pointed to the tree hole, approached the trunk, grabbed the rough and raised part of the bark and climbed up.

Zhao Lin supported his thigh and lifted it up, and his nose smelled a pungent stench.

The smell comes from the tree hole, and the closer the tree is, the stronger the smell becomes.

"Wouldn't this stuff be in it?" Zhao Lin couldn't help thinking.

Zhou Paotou supported the edge of the hole with both hands, and stuck his head in...

The purpose of this move is to clearly see Xiong Wei's position and posture in the tree hole, so as to decide where to shoot the gun.

After a while, Zhou Paotou retracted his head, and he was a little unsteady when he landed. It seemed that he was severely smoked.

Zhou Paotou took out a plaster pen, drew a white circle on one side of the tree trunk, grinned at Zhao Lin, and pointed to his abdomen.

Zhao Lin understood what he meant. Behind the circle was Xiong Wei's lower abdomen—the most vulnerable and deadly part of Xiong Wei's body.

Ready to attack, but the iron gun was still below, Zhao Lin waved to Zhu Dachun and Liang Song under the tree.

When the two saw this, one picked up the iron gun, and the other tied the iron gun with a rope.

Zhao Lin pulled up the rope, untied the knot, and picked up the iron gun.

Zhou Paotou took out a sheepskin bag from his rucksack.

The sheepskin bag contained the poisonous insects caught a few days ago. In order to prevent them from falling into hibernation again in the cold weather, Zhou Paotou kept it close to his body and kept it warm with his body temperature.

Success or failure depends on one action, Zhao Lin and Zhou Paotou silently clapped their hands.

Zhao Lin held the iron gun and stood firmly on the branch of the tree.

He didn't feel fear, but instead had a feeling of blood boiling, and he kept replaying the movements he had practiced thousands of times in his mind...

Zhou Paotou untied the sheepskin bag, stood on tiptoe and dumped the scorpion and centipede into the tree hole, then jumped down, grabbed the rope and slipped to the bottom.

Zhao Lin shook his arms and mustered all his strength to stab out with a spear.

There is almost no deviation in the muscle memory formed by many days of hard training. The huge force pushes the tip of the gun, breaks through the outer layer of the trunk from the circle, and inserts it straight in.

After the gun head went deep into the tree, Zhao Lin felt a sluggish feeling in his hand.

He knew that he had hit Xiong Wei, so he continued to exert force with his hand, the obstacle disappeared instantly, and the iron spear stabbed to the end.

When his strength was exhausted, Zhao Lin threw his hands away without hesitation, dived down, grabbed the rope in mid-air and swung far away.

"Ow..."

There was an earth-shattering roar in the tree hole, and then with a bang, the tree trunk exploded directly from the middle and both sides, and a huge body fell on the snow.

Zhao Lin and Zhou Paotou ran wildly, and looked back when they heard the sound, and saw an iron gun stuck in Xiong Wei's lower abdomen, with more than a dozen poisonous insects hanging on his head and body, and he strode to chase after him.

Xiong Wei pulled out his iron gun and threw it aside, while running, he slapped his body indiscriminately, smashing the gnawing poisonous insects to pieces.

"Snapped!"

Xiong Wei didn't pay attention to his feet and stepped on a beast trap.

Although the sharp teeth of the beast trap couldn't pierce the thick hide, it still held it back.

Whizzing……

At the sound of the bowstring, two long arrows shot by Liang Song and Zhu Dachun hit Xiong Wei one after another.

One arrow hit Xiong Bo's forehead, and the other shot next to his nose, near his eyes.

The arrow was filled with venom, and there were barbs on the tip of the arrow. Xiong Wei screamed in pain, squatted down and broke the animal trap in half, ignored Zhao Lin and Zhou Paotou, and turned around and ran towards Liang Song and Zhu Dachun.

For a long time, this bear has always been the overlord in the mountains and forests, and has never suffered such a disadvantage.

It couldn't help but go crazy, even though it suffered heavy injuries and dragged a wounded leg, its running speed was no less than that of a galloping horse.

When Zhu Dachun and Liang Song saw Xiong Wei chasing him, they each threw a beast trap, turned around and ran away.

Xiong Wei got hit once, saw something flying towards him and knew to avoid it, and both traps missed.

Only two of the five trip wires worked. Xiong Wei's feet were hanging on the ropes, and he only tripped and staggered, which had very limited effect.

Zhao Lin was secretly surprised, everything was as planned, even more perfect than planned, but Xiong Wei's ferocity was beyond expectation.

"Run around the tree!"

Seeing that the two were about to be caught up, Zhou Paotou shouted loudly.

Liang Song and Zhu Dachun also knew that they couldn't run in a straight line, so they walked around the big tree in the forest, while Xiong Zhen roared and slapped the big tree in front of him.

Big trees fell one after another, Zhu Dachun couldn't dodge, was hit in the back by the trunk, and fell forward.

"Cousin!"

Seeing Zhu Dachun fall, Liang Song turned around and grabbed his arm, dragging hard, but found that he was crushed by the tree trunk and couldn't move at all.

"Come on..."

As soon as Zhu Dachun said two words, he spat out a mouthful of blood, staining the snow in front of him red.

Without even blinking his brows, Liang Song picked up the tree trunk and tried to move it to the side, but he couldn't move it at all.

Hearing the sound of heavy footsteps, Liang Song raised his head and saw the red-eyed Xiong Wei running towards him. Knowing that it was too late to run, he gritted his teeth and pulled out the hunting knife at his waist.

"You bastard, come on!"

call……

At this moment, an ax flew over Liang Song's head, and then another...

The first hit missed, the second and third also missed, and the fourth hit Xiong Shi's nose impartially.

Xiong Wei swayed, fell down suddenly, and smashed his body into the snow.

"What are you doing in a daze? Run!" Zhou Paotou yelled.

Liang Song turned his head and saw Zhao Lin coming to him, lifting the thick tree trunk with one hand, and dragging Zhu Dachun out with the other.

It was Zhao Lin who threw the axe. Seeing that the two were in danger, he took out the throwing ax and threw Xiong Wei.

He was inaccurate in the throw, and he missed a hit in the first three times, and he was lucky to hit Xiong Wei's nose on the fourth time.

The bear's nose is full of nerves and is the most sensitive. If it is hit hard, it will fall to the ground in pain or even faint.

Seeing Xiong Wei struggling to get up, Liang Song knew the time was urgent and wanted to reach out to help Zhao Lin, but saw him grab Zhu Dachun and run for more than ten feet like flying.

Liang Song hurriedly followed, ran for more than two miles in one breath, and was relieved to see that Xiong Wei didn't chase after him.
