I am doing construction in the cultivation world

Chapter 79

The two of them were already in the northernmost position of the Northern Barbarian Land. Although the ground was covered with ice and snow at this time, fortunately, it was still autumn and there was no long snowstorm.

The master and apprentice walked quietly on the snow, leaving two long footprints outside the gray mountain forest.

After a while, a loud voice was heard.

There were whistles, the sound of falling snow, the snapping of dry branches, the sound of clothes rubbing against each other when running fast, the sound of rumbling, and the roar of beasts.

The master and apprentice calmly jumped up a big tree and saw clearly the situation ahead.

A dozen strong men in leather jackets, with various weapons and ropes in their hands, surrounded a giant bear that was seriously injured by a trap, and tied a bear's leg with ropes. Pulling it, the other eight people cooperated with each other while wrapping the thick rope around the arm around the other three limbs of the giant bear, and at the same time separated the main attacker and ran towards the giant bear with a long knife.

A spear was stuck in one eye of the giant bear, and the other eye looked at the man running towards him with a knife. One paw swept away the annoying rope, and the rest of his strength was about to slap at the oncoming danger.

The strong man grabbed the rope on the side, and a flexible shovel slid to the chest and abdomen of the giant bear. The long knife aimed at the soft flesh under the neck of the giant bear and pierced it with all its strength. As the giant bear leaned forward, a wound The slash touched the giant bear's chest, and hot blood drenched the man under him.

The man with the long knife was blinded by blood. The giant bear screamed in pain and was about to tear him apart with one of its claws. The two teammates on the periphery immediately pulled the rope that the man with the long knife had grabbed and pulled him out of the giant bear's claws in time. Pull back.

Next, the giant bear, whose blood kept pouring out, had lost its mobility and could no longer struggle out of the circles of rope.

Twelve men stood in their respective positions panting heavily, even though the giant bear was lying on the ground whimpering, no one took the initiative to step forward.

After waiting for a long time, the messy snow on the ground was stained bright red with the bear's blood, and the giant bear's body stopped moving, and someone tightened the rope. One end of the rope tied the giant bear with five flowers, and the other end was tied around the waists of five strong men. The others were on alert.

The group of 12 people finally finished hunting, and pulled the giant bear back and walked back.

It was the first time that Tang Xiao saw such a straightforward and bloody hunting behavior. While she was shocked by the shock of the hunting scene, she was also surprised by the agility and tacit cooperation of these twelve people.

They have no aura fluctuations on them, they are obviously just ordinary people, but they dare to hunt this giant bear that is as tall as three people, and they have not succeeded in reducing their numbers.

Before Tang Xiao could ask, Bai Buran led her in the direction of the 12 people and introduced:

“They are a hunting team from the Jishi Alliance.

Winter is coming. Many tribes in the north do not have enough cattle, sheep and food because of frequent migration. When a snowstorm comes, many people will starve to death.

Jishimeng was established by the people left by the remaining tribes in the extreme north and a knight from the south in the early years. Its purpose is to help the old and weak tribes in the north survive the snowstorm winter and build a home without migration.

Of course, after so many years, people have joined them one after another, but they have not yet found a home that does not require migration.

After all, it is impossible to go south. The pastures in the south are the habitats of barbarian royal courts or large tribes. They tried to negotiate peace and launched wars, but they all failed. So they found another survival mode in the north.

They do not encroach on other people's rights and resources, but travel from all over the world to learn advanced techniques such as grazing and breeding, hunting and picking, while lecturing and enlightening everywhere in the north, treating people and livestock for medical treatment; People go on adventurous hunts.

What's interesting is that they don't accept monks to join the alliance, and they themselves are all people with extremely poor cultivation qualifications and no chance to practice. They help others everywhere, and they are strict with themselves on weekdays, living like a group of ascetic monks.

Shi Liao had dealt with them before, saying that they had condensed their merits and virtues and could try to follow his path and embrace Buddhism, but was rejected. "

"Don't they want to practice?"

"If there is a chance, I should think about it! It's a pity that the qualifications are too poor..."

At this point, Bai Buran looked at his apprentices, well, their aptitude is actually not that bad, so he changed his words to:

"Who knows? I gave a few Foundation Establishment Pills, and they seem to have sold them."

Tang Xiao blinked his eyes. He didn't quite understand. In a world where monks are rampant, wouldn't it be more reasonable for them to want to help others, recruit monks, and actively seek a path of cultivation?

After thinking about it again, these people are all physically strong, full of energy and blood, and their strength is obviously stronger than ordinary people. They feel like they have just completed martial arts. Could it be that they want to forge a high martial arts path by themselves?Not so much, right?At present, it is only at the average level in martial arts novels, and there are no special effects such as the Eighteen Palms of Subduing the Dragon.

I threw away all the speculations in my mind and looked at the backs of the 12 people in front of me with satisfaction.

Well, what a golden name on the head!You must have many wishes that need to be fulfilled by this immortal!
When she thought that this team was only a small part of the Jishi Alliance, she looked forward to this meritorious wool ball even more, and couldn't help but reveal an ear-to-ear smile on her little face.

Bai Buran saw her giggling and patted her head:
"I can understand how you feel right now, but it's a bit inappropriate to laugh when I say that the Foundation Establishment Pill was sold by them."

"Ah! Master, I was wrong.

Let's get to know them! "

"Well, since the teacher recognizes the leader of their generation, go directly to him."

"Uh-huh."

The two of them passed the hunting team and walked quietly to a valley. The snow in the valley had been cleared away, and there were busy figures everywhere, some were slaughtering prey, some were carrying supplies, and some were drying Dry food, some are boiling the contents of a large black pot as tall as a person, and some are repairing tools...

Bai Buran led Tang Xiao into the valley without attracting any attention from the surroundings, making Tang Xiao feel as if he had eaten green oranges.

He walked outside an ordinary wooden house and knocked on the door.

The person who opened the door was an old woman over sixty years old. The moment she saw Bai Buran, she was slightly startled, and then said in surprise:
"Bai! Mr. Bai!!"

At this time, the busy people around the wooden house noticed that the master and apprentice were dressed in obviously different clothes, and they all cast wary and curious glances.

But after seeing the old woman's joy, most of them put the weapon back and continued their work.

Bai Buran nodded:
"it's me."

The old woman hastily opened the door and invited the two into the house.

"Come in and sit down, I'll heat up two cups of goat milk for you."

The old woman said and shouted into the house:
"Jiwa! Take out the dried fruit and entertain the guests!"

A girl's crisp voice came from the back room:

"Are there any guests? Okay!"

After a while, a girl wearing a small leather jacket, two ponytails, and rosy cheeks came out carrying a plate full of dried fruits.

The girl first saw Tang Xiao in a splendid winter coat, her eyes widened, and she sighed inwardly that she had such beautiful clothes. Then she saw Tang Xiao's face, ah!Such a good-looking person, really good-looking clothes must be matched with good-looking people to complement each other!
She suppressed the envy rising in her heart, looked at the other guest, and then froze in place.

It wasn't until she was patted on the head by the old woman who came up with the goat's milk that the girl came back to her senses and put the fruit plate in front of the two of them with a blushing face.

Unexpectedly, the old lady didn't save her face at all, so she spoke directly.

"There are so many girls in the north who want to marry Mr. Bai that you can't imagine. Your grandma and I even proposed marriage to Mr. Bai, but in the end she didn't marry your grandpa."

"what!"

The little girl looked shocked, and immediately realized that this extremely good-looking brother was the white monk that her grandma had mentioned.

If Tang Xiao wasn't there, the little girl might still be a little unconvinced, but the girl next to her who looked about the same age as her was so pretty, so she really had no reason to fall in love with her.

Not long after being lost, the little girl looked at Bai Buran curiously.

"Don't monks age?"

Tang Xiao felt that if something happened, the disciple should do his best, so he took the initiative to answer:

"Yes, it's just that it has a longer lifespan than ordinary people, so it will naturally age slowly."

The little girl immediately looked at Tang Xiao with curiosity in her eyes:

"Then are you all hundreds of years old?"

……

The two of them didn't have to wait long, and the old woman told the person who called the girl's grandfather to follow the current leader, Jia Zhenghong, back to the cabin.

"Mr. Bai!"

Jia Zhenghong, who is still burly in his sixties, has few wrinkles on his face, but his skin is dark, his hair is all white, his steps are vigorous, his eyes are hale and hearty, and most importantly, the name on the top of his head is shining golden, making Tang Xiao's eyes crooked. little crescent.

When Bai Buran saw this, he didn't exchange too many greetings with them. He directly explained that his apprentice was coming to help them and he was just sending people here.

So almost everyone had a discussion about what Tang Xiao could help.

Bai Buran took Tang Xiao to have a light meal with a few old acquaintances, and then disappeared on his own, so as not to affect the apprentice's accumulation of gratitude.

On weekdays, Jishimeng seldom deals with monks, let alone ask monks of unknown origin to help. Most of those people cannibalize people without spit out their bones, but Mr. Bai's apprentices are different.

I think if it hadn't been for Mr. Bai, the Jishi Alliance would have been wiped out by the royal army. Not only that, Mr. Bai also gave them a kind of food seeds that could be planted in the frozen soil, taught them how to cultivate them, and solved several tribes. The livelihood problem, and then there was the fact that they sold the Foundation Establishment Pill given by Mr. Bai for a lot of money, which brought a lot of help to their career.

It gets dark very early in the North, and it is not yet dinner time. It is already completely dark. There are many bonfires lit in the camp. All twelve hunting teams have returned. Everyone is cooking soup, grilling barbecue, and discussing the food. What prey can be hunted, how much food needs to be stocked, which tribe needs to send how many things, etc.

Tang Xiao was pulled by the little girl from Jia Zhenghong's family and sat beside the largest bonfire. Looking at the lively scene and the golden names, his heart couldn't help but boil.
