Chapter 18 First meeting a young man in white

Anlong City is located on the border between humans and monsters. Not far from the city is the boundary of Sanwu Mountain. This small border city is crowded.

Originally, Anlong City was just a border town, but as humans knew the value of monsters, a large number of monster hunters flocked to this remote town

Knowing that the monsters are bound by the ancient agreement, they dare not leave the boundary at will. The bold monster hunter risked his life to enter Sanwu Mountain to hunt monsters to earn a bounty

But this reward is not so easy to make. Entering Sanwu Mountain will lead to a lifetime of death. Since you want to kill monsters, you will naturally have to bear the risk of being killed.

But even so, there are more and more monster hunters in Anlong City

On the bustling streets in Anlong City, vendors are selling not fruits and vegetables but the fur of monsters, all kinds of bloody internal organs, and some rare treasures that are only found in Sanwu Mountain.

A young man in white was walking through the street, skillfully greeting the vendors

The boy stopped at a stall selling herbs, and his hearty smile was as warm as the sunshine in winter. Uncle Li, the business is good today, I bought it almost in one morning. The boy was particularly happy when he looked at the few herbs left on the stall.

Waiter, I've been waiting for you all morning. If you don't come, I have to close the stall in advance. The lazy shop owner saw the boy and showed a long-lost smile

The owner is a middle-aged man with a stubborn face. He looks like he hasn't taken care of for several years. However, there are many such people in Anlong City. After all, a demon hunter who puts his head on his belt is naturally not in the mood to take care of him.

It seems that this batch of herbs is effective. The boy in white picked out the yellow herbs on the stall and poured out the grass basket on his back with breath. The fresh herbs emitted a fragrance, which is indeed a top-notch product.

Uncle Li flipped through the herbs and nodded with satisfaction. Waiter, where did you find this herb? This is a good quality. The boy in white smiled mysteriously and waved to Uncle Li to move closer. Uncle Li smiled bitterly and pressed his ear over. The boy whispered that this is a secret, hehe. Uncle Li realized that he was teased by the boy and said bitterly, "You guy, don't say it, but you have to guarantee that your herbs can only be sold to me in this family." Of course, Uncle Li is my life-saving benefactor. Even if others pay twice the money, I will only sell it to you.Uncle Li was also a well-known demon hunter in Anlong City back then. However, once he met a boy chased by a wolf demon on the border of Sanwu Mountain. Uncle Li had just hunted a tiger demon and was at the end of his strength, but he rushed forward without hesitation and saved the boy. He was also injured by the wolf demon, and his legs were almost disabled.

By the way, wasn’t your herb picked back from Sanwu Mountain? Uncle Li looked at the boy in white suspiciously

After that accident, the boy and Uncle Li depended on each other. In order to repay the favor of saving his life, the boy picked herbs for Uncle Li every day. Uncle Li sold the herbs for money to pay for their lives. Over the years, Uncle Li has treated the boy as his biological son.

Uncle Li, where are you? Why would I dare to enter Sanwu Mountain? Don't worry, the place where you pick this herb is safe. The boy in white replied without hesitation.

That's good, that's good. Uncle Li looked at the well-behaved and sunny boy in front of him, and couldn't help but feel that he could have such a son in his life. It was God's gift to him that he could have such a son in the end.

The boy sorted out the herbs in different categories, then got up and prepared to leave.

Waiter, if you take this money, you will soon be the Soul Sacrifice Festival, go buy some chicken, duck, fish and meat. Uncle Li put a string of copper coins in the boy's palm.

The boy weighed the money string in his hand and bowed to Uncle Li to thank him. Thank you Uncle Li, then I will accept it. Silly boy, this money is yours. Uncle Li had a bright smile on his face and nodded to the boy.

Go, go. The boy left the herb stall and jumped to the meat shop.

Boss, come a chicken, a duck, um... no, no, half a chicken, half a duck will be fine. The boy counted the copper plate in his hand. Although the money was enough to buy several chickens, the boy still wanted to save the money to treat Uncle Li.

Uncle Li made his legs disabled in order to save him. This is a hurdle that the boy has always been worried about. Recently, I heard that someone found a magical medicine deep in Sanwu Mountain, which is said to cure all diseases.

Wu Taining, it was such a coincidence. A harsh voice sounded in the boy's ears. Wu Taining is the boy's real name. Only those close to him would call him Xiaoer.

Wu Taining turned around and looked. The master of the voice was the person he didn't want to see the least, the young master of the lord of Anlong City, the famous playboy in Anlong City, Shen Tu Hao

Mr. Shen, it's such a coincidence. I didn't expect to see you here. Wu Taining forced a smile and squeezed out a smile that looked like crying.

Shen Tu Hao was wearing a gorgeous uniform, and he knew he was a rich young man, with several strong servants following him.

Wu Taining, this Soul Sacrifice Festival is coming soon. I recently took a look at a calligraphy and painting to be filial to my father, but I still have less silver. Why don’t you lend me some, just treat it as you and I dedicated it to my father together? Wu Taining played with the folding fan in his hand and looked at Wu Taining with a smile

Young Master Shen was joking, I can't bear what you like? Wu Taining dared not offend Shen Tuhao, so he could only please him timidly, hoping that he could let him go

This calligraphy and painting was written by a man a hundred years ago. It is worth a thousand gold. I have raised 999 taels, but this is not the case. I wonder if you can lend a helping hand. Shen Tu Hao clearly wanted to make fun of Wu Taining. The people around him shook their heads repeatedly but no one dared to stand up and speak for Wu Taining.

Master Shen, just let me go. One tael of silver is just a money for you to pay beggars, but it is indeed a month's expense for me. Wu Taining suppressed his anger and said respectfully

This is a gift to my father. Could it be that you don’t take my father seriously? Shen Tu Hao was about to get angry when he acted, and the servants behind him held the wooden sticks in their hands one by one. As long as Shen Tu Hao gave the order, he would come up to teach Wu Taining a lesson

Wu Taining's face changed. It seems that he is determined to suffer today.

Wu Taining slowly loosened his clenched fists and handed the few copper plates left in his hand to Shen Tu Hao.

Shen Tuhao took the copper plate and counted it. In this way, you still owe me fifty cents. Remember to pay it back as soon as possible. Wu Taining's face was purple and red, but he dared not speak out. Yes, yes, as long as Master Shen was happy. Shen Tuhao saw Wu Taining's frustrated look, laughed and turned away. The copper coins in his hand were casually thrown to the beggar begging on the street.

Wu Taining sighed, picked up half of the chicken and duck I bought before, and walked out of the city dejectedly

When talking about the conflict between Wu Taining and Shen Tu Hao, we have to start three years ago

At that time, Shen Tu Hao fell in love with a farmer's daughter, Xiaoyun

Shen Tu Hao saw that Xiaoyun was young and tender and pretty, and was tired of playing with the woman in the brothel, and became interested in such a small white lotus that was untainted by the mud.

Xiaoyun and Wu Taining are childhood sweethearts who grew up. Xiaoyun is a sister-like existence to Wu Taining and obey her. Xiaoyun also loves Wu Taining, a considerate and gentle big brother, who is also obedient to him.

But everything happened too quickly. When Wu Taining was collecting herbs outside, Shen Tu Hao led his people into Xiaoyun's house and forced him to abduct Xiaoyun.

It started raining heavily that night, with lightning and thunder roaring. Xiaoyun was imprisoned by Shen Tu Hao at home. The young Xiaoyun was still ignorant of men and women.

But Shen Tu Hao did not have any sympathy for his mercy. He tied Xiao Yun and tore her clothes to pieces. He didn't care whether the girl's tender private parts could accommodate his countless penis, forcibly invaded Xiao Yun's delicate private parts.

No matter how Xiaoyun cried under his crotch, Shen Tuhao was just enjoying his delicate body on his own.

The blood of the virgin flowed along Xiaoyun's white and tender long legs, her eyes were red and swollen, and the severe pain of the broken melon made her body twitch constantly

After Shen Tu Hao vented, Xiaoyun was already dying

When Xiaoyun was dying, he kept calling Wu Taining's name in his mouth

Shen Tu Hao was furious when he saw the girl under his crotch actually called another man's name. He was cruel and ordered all the servants in the mansion to take turns to rape Xiaoyun.

How could Xiaoyun's delicate body withstand the gang rape of so many men? After a night of rape and ravage, Xiaoyun finally disappeared. At the last moment, it was Wu Taining's handsome face.

The next day, Wu Taining learned the bad news and was going to the city lord's mansion to fight Shen Tu Hao, but after the persuasion of Uncle Li and Xiaoyun's parents, he did not do the stupid thing of hitting the stone with an egg.

Xiaoyun's parents were afraid of Shen Tu Hao's power, and they would not dare to say anything even if their daughter was played to death by him.

Although Wu Taining was angry, he could not do anything about a noble young master of the city lord's mansion. Even if he tried his best, he would not hurt any of his hair.

Wu Taining shook his head and tried to stop thinking about those sad memories

Recently, the demand for herbs in Anlong City has increased sharply. The herbs collected by one day will be sold out if they are not used for half a day.

Wu Taining was planning to make a fortune during this period. Wu Taining walked towards his secret herbal medicine with the tools and straw baskets.

The place where Wu Taining collected herbs is connected to the boundary of Sanwu Mountain. Because it is remote and does not have obvious marks, it divides the boundary of Sanwu Mountain, and often unconsciously walks into the territory of Sanwu Mountain.

Although herbs are not valuable, they are not that easy to find. Wu Taining often can't find a basket of herbs in one day, but since Wu Taining discovered this treasure land, he could easily collect a basket of herbs in half a day.

Wu Taining always recognized the herbs that could be used in a weed. Wu Taining used a small shovel to dig up a good herb with the roots. This is the largest herb I dug up today.

Wu Taining looked at it with great interest. Such a large herb must be more than three years old and can definitely be sold for a good price.

Hey, is this blood? Wu Taining looked at the faint blood in his hand in confusion. The herbs seemed to be stained with a lot of reddish-brown dried blood.

Wu Taining looked around carefully and found that there were a lot of blood on the soil.

Wu Taining walked along the bloodstains, and there seemed to be several herbs of good age growing in the places where the bloodstains were stained.

Wu Taining was collecting herbs while searching for the source of the blood.

Wu Taining seemed to see a silver-white light not far away in the direction of the blood. Wu Taining was hesitant whether to continue moving forward.

Wu Taining observed carefully for a while and it seemed to be a wounded animal, and there was no threat.

Wu Taining walked forward carefully. When he walked in, he saw a dying silver-white fox

There is a deep bone-visible scar on the fox's hind leg. The wound has dried up, but if it is not treated, it may be in danger.

Wu Taining quickly poured out the herbs from the grass basket, crushed the herbs with stones and gently applied them to the fox's wound.

Wu Taining put his ear on the fox and heard a slight heartbeat. He then breathed a sigh of relief, bandaged the wound, picked up the little fox and put her in the straw basket.

Little thing, it’s good that you met me, don’t worry, I will take good care of you. Wu Taining looked at the little fox in the grass basket with a smile. The little fox barely opened his drooping eyelids. It was a boy with clear eyes, so clear that there was no impurity. Bai Linger was worried for several days, and her bruised body, finally couldn’t hold back her sleep.

Wu Taining carried a draft basket and had a lot of harvest today. I picked a few herbs of not too low, so let's stop here.

Wu Taining was worried about the little fox's injury, so he hurried back to the thatched hut, cleaned herbs for her, applied herbs again, and prepared wild fruits.

Late at night, Bai Ling'er woke up in a daze. Under the faint candlelight in the room, a figure was busy with something

Bai Ling'er has been much better with the help of herbs. There are bandages wrapped around her thighs and a cute bow is tied on it.

There are a few fresh wild fruits around you

You wake up, that's good. In order to save you, I have used all the most valuable herbs. Wu Taining sat next to Bai Ling'er and handed a hot chicken leg in his hand to Bai Ling'er. Eat quickly, eating meat will get better faster. Wu Taining's innocent smile is like the sun shining on his face, which makes people feel very close.

Humans, have I been saved by humans? The hatred between humans and monsters is irreconcilable, and they are mortal enemies with thousands of years of grudges. But by chance, I was actually saved by a human

Seeing that the little fox had no reaction to the chicken legs, Wu Taining reached out and carried Bai Ling'er out of the straw basket and placed it on his legs.

Bai Ling'er immediately grinned at Wu Taining. Her sister once told her that humans are the most evil creatures. For the sake of the fur and demon pills of monsters, she killed them regardless of the ancient agreement.

Did I care for you? Sorry, Wu Taining gently stroked Bai Ling'er's soft hair and gently cared for her

Bai Ling'er instinctively wanted to break free, but when her body moved, the wound on her hind leg was as painful as a torn. She could only lie obediently on Wu Taining's leg and let him caress her.

Eat something so that you can get better. Wu Taining handed the chicken leg to Bai Ling'er again. Bai Ling'er looked at Wu Taining's clear eyes. She didn't look like a bad person who killed innocent people. In addition, Bai Ling'er hadn't had a full meal for many days and was already hungry. Bai Ling'er didn't think much about it and started eating it voraciously.

Wu Taining looked at Bai Ling'er finally eating and smiled gently. Eat slowly, this is what I was going to use on the Soul Festival, but you ate it first. The starry sky tonight is particularly dazzling, and the spacious grass has formed a starry river made of stars.

The moon is bright like water flowing in the thatched hut, and one man and one beast sleep in embrace each other

The boy had a quiet smile in his sleep. The little fox slept with great peace of mind tonight, as if he had returned to the day of resting in the bamboo forest with his sister.

In the early morning, it was just dawn, and the vendors in Anlong City were ready to open their doors early.

The boy was still wearing the old, spotless white clothes. Uncle Li looked at Wu Taining with kindness for himself and sorted herbs one by one.

Waiter, come here to rest, it's still early now. Uncle Li handed Wu Taining a handkerchief and asked him to wipe the sweat from his forehead

Uncle Li, I found several treasures yesterday, you have to sell them for a good price. Wu Taining took the handkerchief, wiped the sweat and sat next to Uncle Li

Uncle Li suddenly changed his face and asked Wu Taining seriously. Waiter, tell me the truth, where did you pick these herbs? Wu Taining saw Uncle Li suddenly became serious and hesitated and didn't know how to answer. Uncle Li, what's wrong with you? I didn't say that the place where the herbs grow is safe. Uncle Li said in a low voice and said in a low voice that you don't lie to you Uncle Li, Uncle Li, I have not entered and exited Sanwu Mountain a thousand times, and it has been hundreds of times. This is not an ordinary herb. This is the second-grade spiritual plant phoenix tail grass, and the year is not low. The least one here is three years. The largest one has been for ten years. Uncle Li's eyes are fierce and can see the difference between these herbs at a glance. Spiritual plants usually grow deep in Sanwu Mountain, not to mention some second-grade spiritual plants of some years. If they grow outside Sanwu Mountain, they are afraid that they will be picked early, so how can they still get Wu Taining's turn.

Seeing that Wu Taining could not hide it from Uncle Li, he could only come from the truth. Uncle Li, I promise you that I only picked medicines on the border of Sanwu Mountain. I have never gone deeper. Besides, I don’t have the courage. You boy, how many times have I told you, don’t get close to Sanwu Mountain. This time you are lucky, and you may not be able to come back next time. Uncle Li said angrily, Wu Taining is like his own son. He doesn’t want a white-haired person to send a black-haired person.

Uncle Li, I was wrong, I will never go again. Wu Taining is under his head, behaves in his mistake.

Uncle Li saw Wu Taining admit his mistake and was less angry. After all, Wu Taining risked his life to pick these herbs back for himself. Uncle Li no longer bears being angry with Wu Taining.

Since you admit that you have entered Sanwu Mountain, it’s no wonder that there is a demonic smell on you. Maybe some monsters have already targeted you, but don’t go again. I don’t want no one to take care of you. Uncle Li patted Wu Taining on the shoulder and said angrily

I have demonic aura on my body? Wu Taining asked in confusion. He has never seen a demonic beast before. Why does he get demonic aura on my body?

Could it be that little fox, but the harmless appearance of the human and animal is not similar, otherwise how could I live until now

Well, the demonic aura on your body is very weak. I guess it just happened to be a little contaminated. Wu Taining was relieved. He slept with the little fox last night. If the little fox was a monster, how could the demonic aura on your body fade?

Uncle Li, then I'll go back first. Wu Taining greeted Uncle Li and left the herb shop. Uncle Li looked at Wu Taining's figure leaving, frowned and seemed to be thinking about something

I'm back. Wu Taining will go to the thatched hut. Bai Ling'er is lying in the straw basket, with a few clean fruit cores scattered beside him.

It seems that the herbs are effective, and their appetite is getting better and better

Wu Taining looked at Bai Ling'er with a smile. The blood on her body had been cleaned. The silver-white hair was shining with silver light. The furry hair made people unable to help but caress her.

It seems that it has been much better, so I have to go for more walks. Wu Taining didn't care whether Bai Ling'er agreed or not, and carried the straw basket and walked out.

Bai Ling'er lay helplessly in the grass basket. It seemed that she could not leave for a short time.

Wu Taining skillfully walked towards his secret woods. Although Uncle Li warned him, the rich herbs there still tempted the young man to take risks.

After picking a few more baskets, I won’t go. Wu Taining was thinking silently in his heart

Wu Taining put down the grass basket and placed Bai Ling'er on the grass so that she could move her body freely

Wu Taining picked up a small shovel and started the day's work

Wu Taining focused on collecting herbs, and in the woods not far away, a pair of red eyes staring at him.

Bai Ling'er lay lazily on the grass sucking the dew on the tender tip. As an ancient bloodline, her body's functions are naturally extremely powerful. Since the injury has stabilized, Li will be healed soon.

Bai Ling'er looked at Wu Taining's busy back curiously. This human seemed to be different from what his sister said.

Just in the flash, a wolf demon had touched Wu Taining's back and arched his body and attacked Wu Taining.

Wu Taining seemed to notice something, and hurriedly turned his body and rolled aside.

A wolf demon, who was pitch black all over stared at Wu Taining fiercely, was ready to pounce on him and tear Wu Taining into pieces at any time.

Wu Taining looked at the fierce wolf demon in front of him, his legs were so scared that he regretted not listening to Uncle Li. He was afraid that he would be doomed this time.

Bai Ling'er looked at the wolf demon and Wu Taining without a sound. The second-grade wolf demon had not even opened his mind. Even if Bai Ling'er was injured, it would be easy to deal with him.

Wu Taining slowly bent down and held a stone tightly in his hand. The wolf demon failed to hit him, and he looked at Wu Taining with vigilance and did not dare to act rashly.

Wu Taining found the right time to smash the stone towards the wolf demon. Wu Taining, who had a glimmer of life, did not escape immediately, but rushed to Bai Ling'er instead, held Bai Ling'er in his arms and then started running out.

This idiot, even though he had time to escape, he had to waste time saving me. Bai Ling'er felt a little strange in her heart. This feeling only appeared in her sister, a sense of security that she could rely on.

You saved my life, now I will save your life too. As Bai Ling'er said that, a layer of pink light appeared in her eyes. The wolf demon chasing behind her collapsed to the ground under Bai Ling'er's pink gaze. Her heart beat violently. Finally, her heart couldn't stand the rupture, and she died quietly on the spot.

Wu Taining, who was running with all his might, did not know what was happening behind him. He ran away for two miles to make sure that the wolf demon did not continue to catch up, so he collapsed on the ground, gasping for breath. Fortunately, he didn't catch up, we were saved! Wu Taining excitedly picked up Bai Ling'er and rubbed Bai Ling'er's furry head.

Bai Ling'er looked at Wu Taining with contempt, Humph, why don't you save my life and I bit you to death... By the way, it's quite comfortable. Wu Taining, who survived the disaster, dared not go to the border of Sanwu Mountain to collect herbs again, and returned to the old place to look for herbs honestly. Although it takes only half a straw basket to be picked in a day, at least there is no need to worry about suddenly rushing out of the woods a wolf demon.
