Longevity starts with strengthening the internal organs

Chapter 48: Deep in the mountains and old forests, a secret attack (please read, please read)

Zhao Ya did not take the main road, but left the city through an extremely secret route.

Zhao Ya knew at least three routes like this, all of which Zhao Ya had explored secretly in order to prevent him from quickly evacuating the city if something happened in the city.

When Zhao Ya climbed out from an inconspicuous gap in the city wall, the sun was already rising.

Dancing Elephant City is surrounded by mountains, and not far from it is the huge Wild Elephant Mountain. Wild beasts are rampant inside, and even powerful exotic beasts appear. On weekdays, few people except professional hunters dare to go deep into it.

Zhao Ya didn't dare to break in rashly. He first stepped around the perimeter and marked the way back in the hidden place. Then he packed his bags, then covered himself with a scarf and slowly went deeper inside.

There was still a road at the beginning, but as we went deeper, the vegetation became more and more lush, and in the end the road was no longer visible.

Zhao Ya pulled out the short knife, chopped the grass and thorns in front of him, and opened the way with difficulty.

Although he knew that hunting was difficult, he still didn't expect it to be so difficult.

After walking for so long, Zhao Ya encountered nothing but an unlucky hare.

However, Zhao Ya was not discouraged.

He didn't imagine that he would be able to come back with a full harvest the first time he went hunting. This time, he was more interested in exploring the way and getting familiar with the environment.

Zhao Ya walked like this for more than an hour, and it was not until almost noon that he truly entered the interior of Yexiang Mountain.

There are large expanses of virgin forest everywhere, and it’s easy to get lost if you don’t pay attention.

Zhao Ya also became more and more cautious, leaving hidden road signs every time he walked.

There were more wild animals here, but most of them took the initiative to avoid Zhao Ya.

For these animals, the strong energy and blood in Zhao Ya's body and the short knife in his hand all represent danger, so they should naturally stay away from them.

Zhao Ya was not in a hurry to chase him. Instead, he took out a notebook and wrote down something in it from time to time.

Lunch was a piece of dried earthworm meat and water. After Zhao Ya finished eating, he was going to walk a little further before returning home.

Otherwise, he would not be able to leave Yexiang Mountain before the sun goes down.

Even Zhao Ya, who was already a second-level warrior, would never want to spend the night in this wilderness because it was too dangerous.

While walking, Zhao Ya suddenly stopped because he found traces of being trampled on the vegetation in front of him.

The mark was fresh and mixed with a few drops of blood.

Zhao Ya immediately took precautions.

It seemed that they should be the traces left by hunters chasing their prey. Along the way, Zhao Ya also encountered hunters entering the mountains, but he avoided them all.

After all, in this deep mountain, no one can guarantee whether the other person is good or evil.

In particular, once these hunters go out, they come in small groups, and they have extremely rich experience in the wild.

He is alone again. If the other party he meets has evil intentions, it will always be a problem.

However, this place was already located deep in the Wild Elephant Mountain. He didn't expect to encounter a hunter, so Zhao Ya couldn't help but follow the traces.

He wanted to see if there were any prey worth taking risks in the deep mountains, so that he could be prepared when he came next time.

After walking for more than a mile, the traces became more and more obvious, but Zhao Ya's expression suddenly changed.

Because he vaguely heard the sound of fighting ahead.

Zhao Ya immediately used Qinggong and body skills to run towards the source of the sound.

At this time, behind a boulder a few hundred meters away, three people were besieging a man, and a huge deer was lying on the ground.

These people were all dressed as hunters. The people being besieged had been injured, but the machete in their hands showed no sign of weakness, and even forced these three people to retreat continuously.

Seeing this, the three simply stopped attacking and instead adopted a strategy of fighting.

Because they knew that as time went by, Orion's injuries would become more serious, and it would be effortless to deal with him by then.

Not only that, while fighting these three people, they also used words to stimulate the people who were besieged.

"Niu Yuan, I advise you to save your energy, surrender as soon as possible and give us this giant deer, and we can spare your life."

"That's right. If you continue to fight like this, you will definitely die. Why bother for a giant deer?"

The besieged man's face was ashen and his eyes were full of anger.

"Fart, I spent many days of hard work hunting this giant deer, why should I give it to you?"

"And even if I give up to you, you will not let me go. Deng Daqiang, we all eat Orion food. Do you really think I am a three-year-old child?"

Deng Daqiang chuckled, "It's good that you know. It's no wonder that you are too greedy and want to monopolize this giant deer. Then it's no wonder that our brothers are so cruel."

As they spoke, the three of them continued to fight, not giving Niu Yuan any chance to get close.

Niu Yuan's heart gradually sank.

Because he could feel that as time passed, his physical strength was declining.

The wound on his back was also bleeding continuously. If he continued like this, he would be eaten alive by these three people sooner or later.

But Niu Yuan couldn't do anything about it.

Because it is located in this deep mountain and old forest, force is the fundamental solution to everything.

The only fault is that he was careless for a moment and was successfully attacked by Deng Daqiang and the others. Otherwise, how could the three of them have done anything to him.

Niu Yuan gradually fell into despair, suddenly staggered, and almost lost the machete in his hand.

Deng Daqiang's eyes lit up when he saw this. He immediately saw the opportunity and rushed forward, raising his knife to chop.

Niu Yuan felt miserable and was about to wait for death.

At this moment, a whizzing sound was heard, and then an arrow flew through the air and nailed Deng Daqiang's throat.

Deng Daqiang's eyes widened, as if he couldn't believe it all.

At the same time, a figure jumped out from behind the boulder like a tiger.

The remaining two people were thrown into a panic by this unexpected turn of events, and they didn't even think about counterattacking until the figure got close.

But it was too late, two sword lights were seen passing by, and the heads of the two men flew out immediately.

The dead body fell to the ground.

All these changes happened in a blink of an eye.

Niu Yuan was also stunned.

Zhao Ya calmly took off the sleeve arrow nailed to Deng Daqiang's throat and put it in his bag, then turned around and looked at Niu Yuan.

"Are you a hunter in this mountain?"

Only then did Niu Yuan wake up and nodded hurriedly, "Yes, yes!"

Then he looked at Zhao Ya with some fear, wondering what this warrior who suddenly appeared wanted to do.

In fact, Zhao Ya saw everything that happened just now from behind the boulder.

The reason why he took action was certainly not to seek justice, but he suddenly felt that Niu Yuan was a very suitable candidate.

After all, he was able to capture an obviously alienated giant deer in this deep mountain forest, which shows his superb hunting skills.

And this is what I lack most.
