Chapter 23 Look northwest and shoot the Sirius

Lu Zheng looked at the sky. The sun was setting, and on the other side of the sky, the moon was rising.

Judging from the time, night will fall soon.

Lu Zheng thought about the nearest populated area, which was quite far from the mountain and he couldn't get there before dark.

And he didn't want to bring such a demonic wolf to the village.

Lu Zheng looked at the demon wolf not far away, with a thoughtful look on his face.

When the demon wolf saw Lu Zheng stop, it glared and bared its teeth, still as ferocious as ever, and became even more arrogant, as if it had already made Lu Zheng its prey.

Lu Zheng shook his head and said leisurely, "It seems you really won't stop."

He didn't want to fight a protracted battle with a beast and waste too much energy.

As he spoke, Lu Zheng slowly took off the bookcase from his back.

While being wary of the demon wolf, he reached out to open the lid of the bookcase and took out a scroll of cultural treasure.

When the demon wolf saw Lu Zheng's actions, its green eyes flashed and it became alert.

"In that case, let me use you to test my level." Lu Zheng murmured.

He shook the treasure and unfolded it.

A fierce murderous intent faintly emerged from the paper.

On the clean white rice paper, there was a line of poetry written: I can draw a bow like a full moon, look northwest, and shoot the wolf in the sky!

With Lu Zheng's current literary talent, he is not yet able to write a complete masterpiece of famous poetry and turn it into a literary treasure.

But just quoting one or two sentences from the famous works of the predecessors can become a literary treasure and produce remarkable effects.

Before, Lu Zheng suddenly thought of this line of lyrics and tried to write it in a literary style.

Then it became a piece of paper treasure, and it was discovered that this sentence contained the meaning of killing, so it was not willing to use it before to verify its power.

The current situation can be verified.

Lu Zheng lightly tapped his finger, and the literary energy in the literary treasure was stimulated, and a line of words lit up with dazzling light.

As the light flowed, the line of words turned into a longbow and appeared in Lu Zheng's hand.

Looking at the longbow formed by literary energy in his hand, Lu Zhengfu was focused. He held the longbow tightly with one hand and pulled the bowstring hard with the other.

I saw a shining arrow slowly condensing from the longbow.

When the demon wolf saw this scene, its hair stood up all over its body and it felt its life was in danger.

Without a moment's hesitation, it turned around and fled, using its well-developed limbs to exert force, running so fast that an afterimage was left.

Lu Zheng had a resolute expression, his eyes fixed on the demon wolf. He gathered his energy into his dantian, pulled the bow with all his strength until it was like a full moon, and then released the taut bowstring.

The arrow was shot out silently, turning into a colorful stream of light, as fast as lightning and carrying the power of thunder.

In an instant, the arrow hit the running wolf and penetrated into the wolf's body.

"Ow..."

The demon wolf howled in pain, its limbs and steps suddenly became disordered, and it stumbled and fell to the ground, rolling twice before finally stopping.

After that, the demon wolf could only breathe in but not out, and its body fell to the ground, twitching unconsciously.

Lu Zheng held the sword and slowly approached the demon wolf.

When he got closer, he found that the demon wolf was only still breathing. Its originally ferocious eyes became dull and lifeless, and its mouth was slightly open with drool, and it no longer had the arrogance it had before.

Lu Zheng observed carefully and found that the demon wolf did not suffer any damage on the surface. The arrow just now should have destroyed the meridians inside the body that contained demonic energy, and mainly injured the soul.

This demon wolf is now brain-dead. The reason it is still struggling and twitching is just the body's last instinctive reaction.

The arrow just now was quite powerful... Lu Zheng commented in his mind. Seeing the dying demon wolf, Lu Zheng looked indifferent and raised his sword to stab it fiercely.

The sharp sword blade easily cut through the wolf's tough skin, and then forcefully severed its spine.

After a few breaths, the demon wolf died completely without any movement.

[You killed a first-level demon wolf, eliminating a threat from the mountain. Your Wen Qi +3.]

Three points of Wen Qi? Lu Zheng's mind moved slightly. It seems that this beast is comparable to three ordinary ghosts. The Wen Bao just now was not too wasted.

Lu Zheng used a sharp sword to cut open the wolf's corpse and check its internal condition. He found that many of the demon wolf's meridians were broken, obviously it had been strongly impacted by the righteous energy.

After verifying his guess, Lu Zheng walked to the stream and washed his hands stained with wolf blood.

Looking at the blood on his hand, Lu Zheng found that he felt no emotion at all.

Unconsciously, my heart has become so strong? Lu Zheng couldn't help but think.

Under the influence of his righteous spirit, he can respond calmly and calmly no matter before or after the event.

Lu Zheng squatted by the stream and washed his hands there for a long time before they were clean, but he could still smell a faint fishy smell.

Seeing this, Lu Zheng had an idea and a thin layer of righteousness emerged from his body.

But in the blink of an eye, the remaining scent of the demon wolf on his body was completely cleared away by his righteous energy.

As for the sword that Lu Zheng had just used, it did not take up any blood when it was used, which saved the effort of cleaning it up.

After finishing the cleaning, Lu Zheng went back, put on his book box, and slowly left towards the sunset.

He took nothing from the demon wolf, nor did he feel that there was anything worth taking, so he just left it there, letting it rot and return to dust.

Having gotten rid of the evil in the mountains, Lu Zheng no longer had to worry about monsters following him. He was in a good mood and his steps became a little lighter.

In the sky, the setting sun slowly sinks below the horizon.

A bright moon emitted bright moonlight, and the soft light spread across the earth, illuminating Lu Zheng's way forward.

As he walked, Lu Zheng discovered that the path he was originally walking on had been covered by weeds, and there was no way forward.

He had to walk along the stream, which slowed down his pace a lot.

"It seems like I have to spend the night outdoors." Lu Zheng murmured.

In the distant mountains, there was the sound of wild beasts roaring.

I think some wild animals only come out to look for food at night.

Lu Zheng walked slowly along the way, and the stream beside him gradually became wider.

Most villages are built near water sources.

Lu Zheng was sure that even if he got lost, as long as he kept following the flow of the water, he would definitely find his way.

After walking a few more miles, the stream merged into a wide river, and the surrounding terrain became flatter and more open.

Lu Zheng looked at the surrounding environment and decided to find a place to spend the night here, which was a good choice.

Under the moonlight, Lu was looking for a suitable location nearby.

Suddenly, he vaguely saw a blurry figure under a tree not far away.

Huh? Lu Zheng couldn't help but blink, then walked over quietly.

When he got closer, he found that there was indeed a person sitting under the tree, fishing there.

How could he actually encounter a fisherman in this desolate place? Lu Zhengzheng showed a hint of doubt.
