Chapter 7 Planning a Medicinal Bath
Outside the quiet little mountain village, a short figure suddenly appeared.
The old dog in the village was the first to notice and started barking loudly in the direction of the village entrance.
Then, the men in the village also came out.
They looked towards the village entrance one by one.
Suddenly, a boy shouted:
"That looks like Xiao Miao!"
After these words were spoken, everyone wiped their eyes and looked towards the village entrance.
But when I looked again, the short figure outside the village was already approaching.
Upon closer look, the man covered in blood was none other than Wang Miao who had been missing for more than ten days!
"Village chief, village chief, Xiao Miao is back!"
"Go find Brother Hu and tell him not to go to the Great Wilderness..."
"My child, what have you been through these days?"
"Xiao Miao, you have suffered..."
For a moment, the villagers were in chaos.
Some went to the old village chief to announce the good news, some went to Wang Hu to stop him from entering the wilderness to look for people, some came forward to show their concern for Wang Miao, and some surrounded Wang Miao, looking at him curiously...
Anyway, after a lot of chaos, everyone who should be there arrived.
Wang Miao also told the excuse he had made up.
That day, after Wang Hu and the others left, he saw the ferocious beast.
Fortunately, it was just an ordinary blood-moving realm beast overlord, and he killed it after spending some effort.
However, because their fighting destroyed the surrounding environment and they deviated from the original road, he has been looking for the way back to the village these days.
After saying this, he released more than twenty corpses of ferocious beasts.
Except for the corpse of the ferocious beast in the Cave Heaven Realm, which he sold to the system.
Gained 12 merit points.
Also, there is no precious bone formed in the body of the ferocious beast, so the ball of fire might have been caused by itself.
However, Wang Miao did find a broken piece of precious bone in the body of the strange beast.
Unfortunately, the killing was too slow, and the precious bones were destroyed by the monster itself.
Looking at the twenty or so corpses of the ferocious beasts, the villagers cried out in shock.
Many people were frightened by the fierce power emanating from the corpse of the ferocious beast and their faces turned pale.
Wang Hu was even swallowing his saliva.
He was strong enough that he could barely sense that among the corpses of these ferocious beasts, more than half were stronger than him.
It seems that Xiao Miao's strength has made great progress again.
The village chief looked at the corpse of the ferocious beast that suddenly appeared, and a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.
He had heard of this method from Wang Hu and had also seen Jie Shi's magic.
But how many medium stones are needed to hold these twenty or so corpses of ferocious beasts?
In other words, there is still room for more medium in Xiaomiao's place.
But none of this matters.
The important thing is that Xiao Miao returned safely.
This made the village chief, who had suddenly looked a little old in recent days, smile kindly.
"Okay, stop surrounding Xiao Miao, quickly carry these beasts to the sacrificial spirits for sacrifice, and then deal with them quickly. We will have a bonfire party tonight to welcome Xiao Miao back to the village safely!"
Seeing everyone chattering around Xiao Miao, the village chief had no choice but to give orders.
Suddenly, everyone started to get busy.
Some people helped carry the corpses of the ferocious beasts.
Some people used basins and bowls to collect the blood of the ferocious beasts.
Others were some old people, who looked at the corpse of the ferocious beast with shining eyes, muttering something from time to time, and looking at Xiao Miao and other children in the village from time to time. Occasionally, they gathered together to talk about something.
"Grandpa, I'm back!"
Wang Miao walked up to the village chief and said.
The village chief rubbed his head, not caring about the blood on the ends of his hair.
"You're back. Have a good rest tonight. We'll talk about anything tomorrow. Now go take a shower and change into clean clothes."
"Ok!"
Wang Miao nodded heavily, and then he walked towards a small river beside the village.
Looking at Wang Miao's back, the village chief was very pleased.
……
After offering sacrifices to the spirits, the people of Wangjia Village began to get busy.
The men began to dismember the beast's body.
Some of the women helped with carrying, while others started smoking and roasting.
The oldest elders directed several strong men to cut the sharp horns of the beasts, trying to extract the essence and blood contained therein. Some even did it themselves, carefully taking out the heart containing the essence and blood and sealing it in a pottery jar that had been prepared long ago.
The children squatted by the stove, smelling the delicious barbecue and fantasizing about having a big meal tonight.
This busy work took up most of the day.
In the blink of an eye, it was night. In the training square of Wangjia Village, a big bonfire was crackling.
Women and children danced celebratory dances around the fire.
“The barbecue is coming!”
At this moment, a shout was heard in the field.
Suddenly, all the children looked at that person eagerly.
To be precise, it was the barbecue grill carried by a dozen people behind him.
Wang Miao brought back so many carcasses of ferocious beasts that if he cut a piece from each one, it would be enough for everyone in Wangjia Village to eat.
Especially since the owners of these barbecues were originally ferocious beasts in the Blood Moving Realm, and their flesh and blood contained extremely rich energy.
It is simply not something that these villagers, most of whom are just ordinary people, can eat.
In the past, they could only eat this kind of meat occasionally.
The hunting teams mostly brought back the corpses of ordinary ferocious beasts.
"Little guy, you should eat less. You can't bear much of the essence in the blood and flesh of the ferocious beast!"
A villager from the hunting team said to his cub.
But the little guy didn't care about all that and stuffed the half palm-sized piece of barbecue into his mouth in just a few bites.
Then he reached out and grabbed another piece...
The same situation is happening everywhere.
However, everyone in Wangjia Village knew the content of the basic training method of the Blood Moving Realm, and they also knew that if the children ate too much, the most they would do was toss and turn all night without sleep, so they just ignored them.
At this time, Wang Miao, who was sitting between the village chief and Wang Hu, was also eating barbecue with big mouthfuls.
It's just that he doesn't care about what he can't digest.
These are all the resources for his practice.
It would have been fine if he didn't have the ability before, but from now on, he would have to eat the meat of ferocious beasts every day.
There is no way. The ferocious beast meat contains a lot of essence, which is of great benefit to his cultivation.
Wang Hu on the side was communicating silently with the village chief with his eyes.
"Village Chief, Xiao Miao is back. Can we start preparing for what we talked about before?"
"No hurry, let's talk about it tomorrow. This child must be exhausted after being alone in the wilderness these days."
"Village chief, are you sure? He can eat more than me, and he's more energetic than me!"
'...'
belch!
Wang Miao wiped the corner of his mouth and took a sip of berry juice.
Then he looked at the village chief, then at Wang Hu, and said:
"Grandpa Village Chief, and Uncle Tiger, if you have any questions, just tell me directly. I will definitely help you if I can!"
Wang Hu laughed twice and said:
"Okay, originally we wanted to wait until tomorrow to tell you, but since you've noticed it, let the village chief tell you!"
After saying that, he picked up the stone cup containing fruit wine and started drinking it in big gulps.
Seeing this, Wang Miao looked at the village chief.
The village chief glared at Wang Hu, then said in a kind voice:
"Xiao Miao, it's like this. When you were hunting before, I discussed with some elders in the village about baptizing you, but then this happened, so the idea was shelved."
"Now that you're back, we've been thinking about whether we can let you and the hunting team go into the wilderness a few more times to prepare some beast blood for the children. Of course, it's mainly for you..."
When Wang Miao heard about baptism, he immediately became interested.
baptism!
There has been no talk of baptism in Wangjia Village in recent years.
So he didn't think about it.
Later, when he obtained the basic cultivation method of the Blood Moving Realm, he did not pay attention to the brief description of the baptism.
Unexpectedly, they were discovered by the village chief and others.
He remembered that this kind of baptism required precious herbs, poisonous insects, the blood of ferocious beasts, and some rare and strange materials.
The most important thing seems to be to have an ancient recipe for medicinal baths.
If he remembered correctly, there seemed to be no such thing in Wangjia Village.
It seems that I have to go to Shi Village after my strength improves. Maybe I can exchange some ancient prescriptions from Shi Village.
Moreover, he also had the task of signing in at specific locations, and he didn't know what good things he could get by signing in.
Hope is a perfect baptismal prescription.
Seeing Wang Miao bowing his head in thought and not agreeing, the village chief quickly said:
"Xiao Miao, it's okay if you don't want to go..."
"what?"
When Wang Miao heard the village chief's words, he quickly came back to his senses.
"Go, you must go!"
"Grandpa Village Chief, let me tell you, I had the same idea. We are thinking the same thing!"
"So, I go out of the village every day to hunt ferocious beasts, which is just the right time to hone my combat awareness..."
