Beast Taming and Immortal Cultivation: Starting from Mountain Chasing

Upon re-entering the Ghost Cry Forest, everyone's hearts remained in suspense.

However, no monsters were found in the following two days.

Only nine tree martens, three fox martens, four tree rats, and six gray cloud birds were found.

Zhao Erhu's Nether Sparrow attacked and killed them all, then fed them to the spirit beasts.

Two days have passed.

The hunting party had a very good harvest.

A total of 38 plants of Xuan Yin Cao were harvested.

Among them, the little black tiger, the yellow weasel, and the sable found the most Xuan Yin grass.

Little Black Tiger found 16 plants.

Nine wampee plants were found.

Eight sables were found.

Wolfhounds are not good at finding Xuan Yin Grass.

The three owners of the wolfhounds all had rather dismal results.

Zhao Erxiong's wolfhound found 3 plants.

Chen Changming's wolfhound found two plants.

Zhao Erbao was the most miserable, having gained absolutely nothing in two days.

Zhao Erbao was unusually depressed, his face looking as if a family member had died.

He was about to reach the one on the right when Zhao Erxiong beat him to it.

The one on the left was so frustrated he almost vomited blood. He and the wolfhound walked past carefully but found nothing.

But Chen Changqing and Xiao Heihu can easily find it once they go there.

Chen Changming was also frustrated. Chen Changqing had found sixteen Xuan Yin Grasses in two days, but he had only found one.

The more Chen Changqing gained, the more depressed he became.

Zhao Erhu was very happy.

Although his Dark Sparrow was mainly responsible for finding prey, it didn't find a single Xuan Yin Grass.

But he can get 30% of the Xuan Yin Grass from each member of the hunting team.

Moreover, everyone else's items had already been agreed to be lent to him.

So they all belong to him.

In three days, a total of 52 Xuan Yin Grass plants were obtained.

After returning, go to the black market in Dayang County and secretly sell it; you can buy nearly 40,000 copper coins.

He was short 200,000 copper coins, and he solved the problem of more than 40,000 coins in the past three days.

On the evening of the third day, Zhao Erhu led everyone away from Yunwu Mountain and returned to Qingshi Town.

The Xuan Yin Grass is contained in a jade box, so its Yin energy dissipates more slowly.

But if you leave it for too long, it still won't work.

Zhao Erhu planned to go to Dayang County early the next morning to give the Xuan Yin Grass to his godfather and have him handle it.

On the way home, everyone calculated their earnings according to the agreed-upon rules.

Chen Changqing's harvest was the most terrifying.

He picked 6 plants of Xuan Yin Grass on the first day, and picked 16 more plants in the following two days, for a total of 22 plants.

One plant costs 850 copper coins, so 22 plants would cost 9350 copper coins.

The other 30 plants picked by others also had to be divided equally among Chen Changqing and the other four.

He will also receive 510 copper coins.

In total, Chen Changqing's earnings amounted to 9860 copper coins.

Everyone envied her purple-red penis.

Fortunately, Zhao Erhu took it all in the end to pay off his debt.

This eased everyone's gloomy mood by a little.

Zhao Erhu instructed everyone: "No one should tell anyone that we have found the Xuan Yin Grass. Just say that we have gained nothing."

Failure to pay the celestial tax is a capital offense.

Nobody's a fool; who would dare to say such things?

Zhao Erhu was afraid that someone might accidentally let something slip.

Even if we catch him, nothing serious will happen, but he can forget about becoming the village head.

"We understand." Everyone nodded.

As soon as they left the outer edge of the Cloud Mist Mountain Range, Zhao Erhu hid the Xuan Yin Grass. The group carried the two tree martens and the gray cloud bird they had hunted on the way back.

The group first went to Wang's butcher shop in town to sell the tree marten and the gray cloud bird. They made a total of 120 copper coins, but after deducting half of that for hunting tax, they only received 60 copper coins.

It's better to distribute them according to contribution.

Chen Changqing received six copper coins.

Wang Chengcai, the owner of Wang's Butcher Shop, chuckled and said, "You went deep into the mountains, but didn't find any rare herbs or medicinal plants?"

Zhao Erhu sighed deeply: "We didn't find a single hair."

Zhao Erxiong said, "Those high-level cultivators in Dayang County have such sharp eyes that they've picked all the spiritual herbs and plants."

Wang Chengcai said with a smile, "Those high-level cultivators are indeed powerful."

Wang Erbao pretended to complain: "I told you to hunt on the outskirts, otherwise I would have almost lost my life, but I didn't get anything."

Chen Changqing said, "Manager Wang, give me thirty catties of pork. I'll pay you back immediately after my next hunt."

Wang Chengcai nodded with a smile: "It's nothing."

After leaving Wang's Butcher Shop, the group went to Wang's Shop together and each bought some Qi and Blood Pills and talismans on credit.

Chen Changqing also bought two more Qi and Blood Pills on credit.

The amount owed to the Wang family's shops reached 6,245 copper coins.

It was naturally guaranteed by Wang Erhu.

As everyone left Wang's shop, Zhao Erhu instructed Chen Changming, "I'm going to Dayang County early tomorrow morning. You must keep a close eye on your brother Changqing for me."

Zhao Erhu was still worried about Chen Changqing, that coward, fearing that Chen Changqing would run off to Dayang County as soon as he left.

Chen Changqing's little black nose is really useful.

"That bastard," Chen Changqing thought to himself, and in front of him, he ordered someone to monitor him.

"Yes, I know." Chen Changming nodded.

Zhao Erhu once again warned, "But there's one thing you must be careful about: don't hurt Chen Changqing or his little black tiger."

"Yes, I know." Chen Changming's face darkened. That bastard Zhao Erhu knew that Chen Changqing was having an affair with his wife, yet he still wouldn't let him hit him.

Once he becomes stronger, he will definitely teach those two bastards, Chen Changqing and Zhao Erhu, a lesson they won't forget.

Afterwards, everyone agreed to rest for a day and then enter Yunwu Mountain again early the day after tomorrow before returning home.

Chen Changqing carried thirty catties of wild boar meat and walked ahead, while Chen Changming followed behind with his wolfhound.

This mission is much more demanding than the last one, as he has to keep a close eye on Chen Changqing at all times.

Chen Changqing turned around and looked at Chen Changming: "Cousin, are you really going to keep following me like this?"

"That's right." Chen Changming nodded directly.

"While I'm at home eating and sleeping, you're still standing guard outside?"

"That's right." Chen Changming nodded.

Chen Changqing said, "You can go home without worry. I won't run away."

Chen Changming always followed him with such a gloomy face, making him feel extremely uncomfortable.

Chen Changming completely ignored Chen Changqing.

Then let's go along with it.

Chen Changqing returned to the small courtyard in the west of the town with the now-stronger little black tiger.

"Changqing, you're back?" Wang Qiaoqiao from next door poked her head out and asked with a smile.

Wang Qiaoqiao, twenty-two years old, is the wife of Wang Datou, a patrolman in the town.

She had an oval face, fair skin like jade, a straight nose, and bright red lips. When she smiled, she revealed a row of neat, pearly teeth.

Her almond-shaped eyes were bright and sparkling, and her gaze seemed to be able to captivate the soul.

She was voluptuous and slender, with a waist as thin as a willow, full breasts, and rounded hips. She walked with a graceful sway, as if a gust of wind could blow her over.

At this moment, she was wearing a plain-colored ruqun (a type of traditional Chinese dress), the hem of which swayed gently with her steps, revealing a section of her fair calves.

"Yes, I'm here." Chen Changqing nodded.

"Your sister wrote you a letter. When Zhang Ergou from the post station delivered the letter to you, you weren't home, so he left it with me. I'll get it for you now." After saying this, Wang Qiaoqiao ran back to her own yard.

He quickly took out a letter and handed it to Chen Changqing.

As Chen Changqing took the letter, her fingertips lightly touched his hand, seemingly unintentionally, yet with a hint of ambiguity.
