"Awooo!" Three black wolves, having caught a whiff of blood, charged toward Chen Xun in a triangular formation.

But when he was still a hundred meters away from Chen Xun, he was hit by three arrows.

Every arrow hits the head.

He let out two final sobs and then died.

"That's about it."

Chen Xun glanced at the prey around him.

On the ground lay the carcasses of several medium-sized carnivores, all of which had been hunted and killed by Chen Xun after being attracted by the strong smell of blood.

Among them are forest pythons that are four or five meters long, gray gibbons that like to catch squirrels and other small animals, and gray leopards that are very fast.

Of these prey, the grey leopard is the most valuable. Its fur is very warm, and with winter approaching, a complete leopard pelt can fetch a considerable sum.

Adding the three black wolves, the total can be sold for about thirty or forty taels.

However, Chen Xun naturally couldn't carry all the prey down the mountain at once.

So he tied the other prey with ropes and hung them on trees to prevent them from being carried away by wild animals.

Then they carried the most valuable gray leopard and the second most valuable forest python down the mountain.

Python meat is tender, and its gallbladder, after proper processing, is said to have aphrodisiac effects, both of which can fetch a good price.

As for how to deal with it, Chen Xun didn't know, but Pharmacist Luo had a secret recipe.

People who buy python gallbladders usually ask Pharmacist Luo to prepare the medicine.

After carrying the two prey down the mountain, Chen Xun did not go to the market immediately, but instead went to find his uncle Chen Wang.

"Xiao Xun, what brings you here today?"

"What are you carrying on your shoulders?"

Chen Wang looked at the prey on Chen Xun's shoulder with surprise and suspicion.

"These are some game I hunted in the mountains. Uncle, if you help me sell them, I'll give you ten percent of the profits."

Chen Xun said.

No, that won't do.

Chen Wang quickly waved his hand, "How could I take your money? If your aunt finds out, she'll give me a hard time."

Chen Wang insisted on not accepting Chen Xun's money.

Seeing this, Chen Xun had no choice but to put the matter aside for the time being.

"Uncle, these are only some of the game I have. There are others on the mountain. You take these to the market to sell, and I'll go up the mountain to carry the rest of the game down and sell them together."

"There are still more?"

Chen Wang looked at Chen Xun in surprise.

Then he sighed, "Indeed, becoming a martial artist makes all the difference."

He also dreamed of becoming a martial artist, but unfortunately, he lacked the talent and his family didn't have enough money for him to learn martial arts.

"Don't worry, Dajiang will definitely become a martial artist in the future."

Chen Xun said, as if making a promise.

"How did you know that brat Da Jiang could become a martial artist? Can you tell fortunes?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Wang asked curiously.

"It's very simple. With my strength, what difficulty would it be for me to make Dajiang a martial artist?"

Chen Xun said confidently.

Upon hearing this, Chen Wang stared blankly at Chen Xun.

"Uncle, what's wrong?"

"It's nothing, it's just that you seem to have changed quite a bit."

"I've become much more confident and capable than before."

After Chen Wang finished speaking, he smiled with some relief.

This kind of change is something he is happy to see.

"Alright, that's enough. I'm going to set up my stall at the market. You'd better bring the rest of your prey over."

"Okay, I'll go to the market to find you right away."

After saying that, Chen Xun left in a hurry.

When Chen Xun arrived at the market carrying two black wolves, he found that Chen Wang had already set up a stall and started selling them.

After processing, the prey on his stall had its skin, meat, and internal organs separated, making it easier to sell.

My aunt, Chen Yumo, was also there, helping to collect the money.

"Uncle, Aunt."

Chen Xun arrived at the stall and left behind two black wolves, causing some people in the market to gasp in surprise.

This attracted many people to the stall.

"Xiao Xun, you're here."

As Chen Wang cut the meat, he said to Chen Xun, "Your aunt insisted on coming over, saying that she couldn't let someone else take advantage of the game you worked so hard to hunt."

Upon hearing this, Chen Xun felt a surge of emotion.

Chen Yumo also saw Chen Xun, but she only called out to him once before continuing to greet the guests.

Chen Xun didn't linger. After putting the black wolf down, he went up the mountain and brought down the rest of the prey.

Including the pheasants and foxes used as bait.

In the end, through the combined efforts of the three, all the prey were sold for a total of thirty-five taels of silver.

The leopard skin alone sold for fifteen taels of silver and was bought by a martial artist from a guard team.

The other party bought it to use as a swaddle for their newborn son.

This man was a captain in the guard team, and his strength was comparable to Chen Hu's.

When he saw Chen Xun, he patted Chen Xun on the shoulder and offered a few words of encouragement.

After closing up shop, Chen Xun took out five taels from the thirty-five taels and secretly slipped them to Chen Wang.

He knew Chen Yumo wouldn't accept it.

"Xiao Xun, what are you doing?"

Chen Wang naturally wouldn't accept it and quickly pushed it away.

But Chen Xun's words made him struggle.

"This is the money I'm giving to Xiaolian for her medical treatment; consider it a token of my appreciation as her cousin."

Yes, Chen Xiaolian is sick. This child is naturally weak and has been sick many times in the past. Now that the weather has turned cold, she has fallen ill again and needs to drink some expensive Chinese medicine to replenish her vital energy in order to recover.

This is a considerable expense.

Although Chen Wang is a hunter and earns a lot of money, he has a family of three to support and can't save much money.

Knowing this, Chen Xun asked Chen Wang to help him set up a stall, taking the opportunity to subsidize him with some money.

However, Chen Wang insisted on not accepting it, which is why he spoke up directly.

"Thanks, Xun."

In the end, Chen Wang clenched the silver in his hand, his eyes filled with emotion, but also with disappointment and guilt.

What are you two talking about?

Suddenly, Chen Yumo approached the two of them and asked in confusion.

"It's nothing."

Chen Xun quickly shook his head, then lifted the things in his hand and changed the subject, saying, "Auntie, here's some leftover meat, you can take it and eat it."

"You and your uncle have done me a huge favor, and you won't even accept this little something?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Yumo hesitated for a moment, but ultimately nodded and accepted it.

At noon, Chen Xun ate lunch at Chen Wang's house.

He visited Chen Xiaolian, who was lying in bed. The child was pale and sickly, her face lacking its previous rosy glow.

"Cousin, you're here."

Xiao Lian smiled at Chen Xun, then immediately coughed.

Hearing the cough, Chen Yumo rushed in to take care of Xiaolian, her face full of worry.

Seeing this, Chen Xun couldn't help but sigh softly.

He's not a doctor, so he has no solution to this kind of situation.

"If I have the opportunity, should I learn some medical skills?"

This thought popped into Chen Xun's mind.

If his medical skills could be recorded in the "Martial Arts Diligence Record," Chen Xun was confident that he could become a divine physician in a short period of time.

However, medical skills are not easy to learn. There is only one doctor in the village, and his medical skills are passed down in his family, not to his daughters. He does not accept apprentices at all.

As for Pharmacist Luo from the Martial Arts School, it is said that he had some grudges outside and lived in seclusion in Chenjia Village.

Moreover, Pharmacist Luo was skilled at treating external injuries, but he didn't have much experience with other illnesses.

Therefore, Chen Xun never considered asking Pharmacist Luo to treat Chen Xiaolian.

After returning from Chen Wang's house, Chen Xun rested for a while before taking the blood-activating medicinal soup and diligently cultivating.

In the days that followed, every three days Chen Xun would go to the mountains to hunt some game and sell it at the market.

Sometimes, when luck is bad, you only get a few taels of silver.

Sometimes, if you're lucky, you can sell it for more than ten taels of silver.

Regardless of the outcome, Chen Xun did not leave White Tiger Mountain to hunt.

And just like that, half a month passed in the blink of an eye.
