C1 From the Seven Profound Mountains

The cold wind cut the earth like a knife. Snow fell from the sky like goose feathers. This was the beginning of the twelfth lunar month. This was the place where everything started - Qixuan Mountain.

The Qixuan Mountain was covered in thick snow, and it gave off an indescribable feeling of vastness. At this time, a figure stood on a snowy peak in the Qixuan Mountain. Even though it was winter, he was standing on a snowy peak naked. The low temperature of sprinkling water into ice did not seem to have any effect on him at all.

The person standing was a youth. His tender face appeared to be around eight or nine years old. As he gazed into the distance, his eyes revealed deep confusion.

"Who... am I?"

"Where... is this place?"

As he thought of this, the youth moved. He saw the youth lightly leap and jump towards the bottom of the snowy peak. The strong wind that rapidly descended blew away the snow covering the youth's head, revealing the youth's jet-black and shiny hair.

"Bang!" The strength of the youth's fall washed away the surrounding snow, revealing the emerald green grass. Although it was winter and the moon, the emerald green grass did indeed reveal a trace of unwillingness and a smell of life. The youth patted the dust off his body and walked forward.

At this moment, in a forest about one mile away from the youth, a few figures were moving forward. "Brother Wang, you said that the mountain has been sealed by heavy snow. When we enter the mountain, will we still be able to get anything?" One of the men in leather clothes asked.

"Hehe, let me tell you guys, this mountain is the best time to hunt. Vegetation is covered by snow. Animals can't find anything to eat in the mountain, so they naturally come out to look for it. This is the wild forest outside Qixuan Mountain. There are many wild chickens and rabbits." The leader of the men answered.

"Little Lee, now is the best time to hunt and store winter food." At this moment, a man said.

Suddenly, a sound came from the bushes in front of them. The leader immediately raised his right hand, which was clenched into a fist. The group of people immediately stopped and stared at the bushes in front of them.

"Gulp... Gulp... Gulp." The sound of chickens chirping came from within the bush. The group of people immediately revealed a smile. There was actually a pheasant nest here, and it seemed that there was only one.

The burly man looked at the people behind him and nodded. The few of them then took the bows on their backs and aimed at the bushes. They had practiced this before, so they pulled their bows and aimed at the bushes at an extremely fast speed. Seeing that everyone was ready, the burly man picked up a rock at his feet and threw it towards the bush.

As the stone smashed into the bush, a few fat pheasants instantly scuttled out. The people who had prepared the ambush immediately fired their bows at the pheasants. Following the cries of the pheasants, the laughter of the crowd could be heard.

"Hahaha, three big pheasants were taken by us one by one." One of them shouted happily.

While everyone was happily collecting their prey, the young man had already appeared on a tree a few meters away from them. Looking at the creature that looked similar to him, the young man was filled with curiosity.

At this moment, a strange sound suddenly came from the bushes on the other side. Those who heard the strange sound immediately revealed a serious expression. With such a loud sound, the animals had already run away. If they dared to approach now, they definitely wouldn't be easy to deal with.

As the sound ended, a black shadow emerged from the bushes ten meters away. It was a black boar. The boar had a cunning look in its eyes. It was not as stupid as a normal boar. It seemed to have some intelligence.

When the leader saw that it was a big wild boar, his expression relaxed. Although adult wild boars were powerful, it was not a problem for four or five strong men to take it down. The wild boar's meat was tender, and its body was not small. It was enough for everyone to eat for a long time.

"Everyone, spread out. Let's slaughter this beast and happily go home to eat the meat."

"Okay!" Everyone happily replied.

At this time, everyone immediately spread out and surrounded the wild boar. The big wild boar saw that everyone was not afraid at all. Two streams of hot air came out of its big nose and hit a man closest to it. The man was not nervous at all when he saw the boar rushing towards him. When the wild boar was two meters in front of him, its legs jumped to the side. It immediately dodged the collision. The two men who were close to the boar immediately pulled up their bows and shot at it. They screamed in pain. The arrow pierced the back of the wild boar.

The wild boar was in pain and immediately turned around and rushed towards the man. The pain and anger made it faster. At this time, the man still dodged before he was about to be knocked down. The price was two more arrows on the wild boar's back.

The youth on the tree saw this scene and his eyes were filled with golden light. He felt that these creatures were really interesting.

After the wild boar suffered two losses, it did not charge randomly. Instead, it ran out of the crowd's encirclement.

"This beast is very clever. It ran away after suffering two losses." The agile man who dodged the wild boar many times said.

"I see that this beast's eyes are not right. It doesn't look like an ordinary beast that is stupid." Another man said.

"That's right, Brother Wang. I'm afraid that this beast has developed intelligence. Are we still going to chase after it?" The person beside him asked.

"Chase after it. I heard that animals that have developed intelligence have spiritual energy. They eat it to strengthen their bodies." After the leader finished speaking, he led everyone in the direction that the wild boar had run off in.

The youth was thinking highly of the wild boar on the tree. Seeing that the wild boar and the others were getting further and further away, he got up and followed them. With a few vigorous movements, he once again leaped onto the tree above the few people's heads. At this moment, a few hunters were observing the pool of blood on the ground. In the pool of blood, there was also a broken arrow that they shot out.

"After chasing the blood for a long time, this beast has lost a lot of blood. At this time, it should be so weak that it doesn't have any strength. " Everyone, work harder. Follow me and kill him. This time, we can go home happily. " The leader of the men said.

Everyone responded and followed the leader of the group to continue searching. After digging through a few bushes, a black shadow appeared on the empty ground in front of them. The big wild boar actually stopped running and stood directly in front of everyone.

Its two small eyes had turned deep red due to the pain and anger. It was breathing out from its mouth and nose. "Huff... huff..."

"This beast is probably going to die. It wants to fight us to the death. Everyone, be careful!" The leader of the men shouted.

"Brother Wang, let me..." Before the young man called Little Lee could finish his sentence, the wild boar rushed over. Its speed was even faster than before.

"So fast!" The young man rolled twice in a sorry state, avoiding the wild boar's angry collision. Before he could get up, the wild boar actually came in front of him again. The young man rolled to the side again. His original position had been trampled by the wild boar. The wild boar saw that it hadn't hit these damn humans, so it immediately stomped on the ground. With a twist of its butt, it actually turned around like a car drifting. With a force of its hind legs, it charged at the young man again.

"Little Lee!"

"Ah!" Little Lee screamed and was sent flying by the wild boar. He rolled a few times on the ground. He spat out a few mouthfuls of blood, probably from his internal organs. It was also because he was smart. Seeing that he couldn't dodge, he spun his body desperately. He pushed aside the two sharp tusks of the wild boar, but the charge of the adult black boar... Not everyone could stand it. Little Lee was already lying on the ground. He did not have the strength to stand up.

The wild boar felt that its fangs did not feel like they were piercing through. It continued to run towards the young man.

"Bastard! How dare you!" The burly man called Brother Wang had already rushed to the side of the boar. He pulled out the machete from his waist and stabbed it into the boar's waist.

The knife went into the stomach and the boar immediately screamed. It raised its head to the side and hit the man with two fangs. At this time, because the burly man had put the knife barrel into the wild boar's body, he was exhausted. "Ah!" With a scream, he was sent flying by the wild boar.

As soon as the burly man landed, the sharp fangs of the wild boar had already arrived in front of him. The eyes of the burly man reflected the blood-red eyes of the black wild boar.

"Am I going to die here? At this moment, there was only despair in the burly man's mind.
