Chapter 24: Chapter 24 Novelist Yu Jun
"…This… person is at the entrance of our village. Where is your conscience if you don't save him? I think we should save him…"
Hua Kai just opened his mouth and heard the system task prompt, so he had to change his words instantly.
"Save or not, if we don't do anything, he might die." Hua Zihuan said to the ranger outside the village who was almost at his limit.
"Save, we must save." Hua Kai affirmed.
"Ten people from the village protection team, open the village gate..." Hua Zihuan shouted to the village protection team.
"No, I'll go save him, Hua Fu, Lao Si, you keep an eye on the wild beast." Hua Xing said and jumped down from the city wall. Qi training masters can release their true qi, and they can fly in the air for a short time.
Yu Jun just killed a gray wolf and was knocked away by a triangular rhino. He vomited a mouthful of blood when he landed. He felt that he could not use any strength in his body. Looking at the wild beasts approaching him, he knew that he was doomed today.
Everything in front of him gradually lost its color. At the last moment when Yu Jun lost consciousness, he felt that the wild beasts around him seemed to scream, and then he knew nothing.
Since Hua Kai decided to save people, Hua Xing jumped down the city wall alone. The wild beast outside the city seemed to be quite intelligent. Seeing this place, he was about to get up and run away. Hua Xing came to the ranger in just two breaths. He quickly shot and killed several wild beasts. Without waiting for the wild beasts in the distance to surround him, he picked up Yu Jun who was already unconscious on the ground and walked back to the village gate. Hua Zihuan was still directing the village guards to open the door and go out of the village to greet him, and Hua Xing had already carried Yu Jun back to the city wall.
"Doctor, how is it?"
Yu Jun was lying on the bed in the guest room of the main courtyard. After Hua Kai's renovation in the past few years, there was high-temperature smoke flowing through the interlayer of the back wall, and it didn't feel cold at all.
"Master, this man has two broken ribs in his chest, and his internal organs are seriously damaged. Moreover, because he has used his Qi continuously after the injury, his Qi is now completely out of control. If you want to save him, it is best to give him the elixir that the master used last time. Only by stabilizing his Qi can you treat other injuries." The doctor has lived in Huajiabao for half his life. Although his medical skills are not very good, this diagnostic skill is accumulated slowly.
Hua Kai looked at the unconscious ranger and checked his attributes.
Yu Jun: Qidong Realm 9th level
Qualification: A
Constitution: 37 (39)
Strength: 42
Willpower: 47
Novelist: Student (the various schools of thought are divided into apprentices, students, scholars, masters, giants, and saints)
Mental skills: Basic copywriting skills (low-level heavenly mental skills) entry
Sword skills: Tianya sword skills (intermediate Xuan-level sword skills) minor success
Status: seriously injured and dying
This was the first time Hua Kai had seen someone from the various schools of thought. The mental skills of this novelist turned out to be heavenly mental skills. The effect of the Xuan-level entry-level mental skills was similar to the minor success of the yellow-level mental skills. According to this calculation, the effect of the heavenly mental skills was just the entry-level was similar to the yellow-level perfection.
Hua Kai sighed deeply. The last [Qi-transforming Pill] could not be saved. He put his hand in his pocket and actually took out the [Qi-transforming Pill] from his personal space and put it into the mouth of the novelist.
The effect of the elixir was very fast. The doctor diagnosed that his true qi had stabilized, so he prescribed a prescription for Yu Jun and applied his ancestral plaster to him. Hua Kai spent dozens of taels of silver.
Leaving a servant to guard him, he could only leave it to fate. This kind of injury would surely kill most people, but those above the Qidong realm are very tough, and he is also a mysterious student of the Hundred Schools of Thought. The result can only depend on himself.
The next morning, Hua Kai received a system prompt: "Congratulations on completing the side quest, the task of rescuing the novelist student Yu Jun is completed, and the reward is a set of purple gold ice silkworm armor."
Is it done? Hua Kai came to the guest room and saw that Yu Jun was still in a coma, but he checked that he had escaped from the critical condition. His physical condition had recovered a little, and his condition had become seriously injured. Seeing that the servant changed the plaster for him, Hua Kai was not in a hurry to collect the task reward. The salt making workshop in the north of the village saw that there was not much crude salt left in the warehouse, and the salt making work would be finished in a few days.
Hua Kai brought back more than 9,000 kilograms of crude salt in four trips. Now, about 8,000 kilograms have been used to purify more than 4,300 kilograms of refined salt, and the salt yield rate is more than half. This is the result of the skilled process. These refined salts are almost 1 cubic meter (the density of salt is 2.3).
Coming out of the salt making workshop, Hua Kai came to the stable. Lieyan saw him coming and rubbed his chest intimately with his head. Lieyan was so spiritual, but he was less than three years old. For a horse, he has not yet entered adulthood. Hua Kai intends to improve Lieyan's strength as much as possible, which is actually a kind of improvement of the family's strength. He was about to lead the horse back to the main courtyard when he heard the sound of drums at the entrance of the village, and there were 6 consecutive drums. This means that the village has been attacked and the situation is already quite dangerous. All villagers need to be prepared, and the village protection team will gather to prepare for the battle.
After climbing up the city gate tower, the temperature outside the city seemed to be getting colder overnight. It has been a month since winter began, and the wild beasts are already too hungry to bear it. Now is the time for them to attack the human settlement. Hua Kai can vaguely hear many beast roars in the distance when he stands on the city gate tower. The loudest sound comes from the direction of Guang County. No village can have an easy life at this time.
"Grandpa, are the wild beasts attacking the village?" Hua Kai saw his grandfather standing on the city wall fully armed, and asked.
"Just now, a few clouded leopards wanted to sneak attack and cross the city wall, but they were killed by the village protection team. The number of wild beasts outside the village doubled last night, and there was another Di Yin tiger. Di Yin tiger is not an ordinary wild beast. Even a low-level wild beast is more difficult to deal with than many mid-level wild beasts. Judging from the current situation, the wild beast group is likely to launch a general attack on us at noon." Hua Xing said.
Hua Kai saw that the wild beasts outside the village could not help but slowly approach the wall of Huajiabao. In the distance, a strong tiger looked very majestic. It looked at Hua Xing on the gate tower motionless, as if it knew that this would be its most powerful enemy.
Since the battle was inevitable, Hua Kai still planned to go home and extract the armor sent by the system just in case. If the village protection team could not resist and Huajiabao suffered a disaster, all the men, women and children in the village would take up arms and fight desperately, and he would have an extra chance to survive.
Quickly returning to his room, Hua Kai extracted the task reward for saving the novelist Yu Jun, and instantly a piece of exquisite purple gold inner armor appeared in his hand.
The surface of this purple gold ice silkworm armor is woven with fine purple gold silk threads. Purple gold is a hundred times more valuable than gold. Its hardness is difficult to destroy even for innate masters. The purple gold silk thread of this inner armor feels very soft. Hua Kai pulled it with his hand and it was very soft.
Inside the purple-gold ice silk armor are several layers of crystal white silk. It feels cool to the touch. It feels very soft when worn on the body, and the temperature feels just right. Hua Kai actually felt a little heat coming out of the inner armor when he left the house. This is a magical inner armor.
This inner armor seems to be very thin, but Hua Kai weighed it and it was about 5 pounds. Wearing it can protect the entire upper body, and wearing a coat outside is very concealed.
As soon as he left the courtyard gate, Hua Kai heard shouts everywhere on the city wall. It was obvious that the wild beasts had begun to attack the city.
"Side quest reminder: Huajiabao is attacked by an unprecedented group of wild beasts. Please repel all wild beasts and defend Huajiabao. The quest reward is issued according to the completion of the quest.
Earth Tiger: Primary Wild Beast
Strength: 38
Agility: 35
Intelligence: 43
Bloodline: Enlightened Demon Tiger Bloodline (0.2%)
Skills: Gangsha Claw, Heaven-shaking Roar, Golden Tiger Three Leaps"
The system actually gave me another quest. I never received any side quests from the system before. A side quest was triggered yesterday, and it was triggered again today. But today's quest is a bit strange!
People have qualifications, and the strength of the same realm is different, and wild beasts and wild beasts are also different. The Diyinhu has the blood of a demon beast, and there is a slight possibility that he will break through and become a demon beast in the future. Moreover, his intelligence is actually over 50 points, which is already the intelligence of a high-level wild beast. Generally, the strongest wild beast that a county can encounter is an intermediate wild beast. Looking at the many skills of the Diyinhu... Seeing this, Hua Kai hurriedly walked towards the city wall. From time to time, someone on the wall gave instructions and reminded that the wild beasts began to attack the village. "Don't go up to the city wall. I am enough here. Command everyone to prepare supplies for defending the city and arrange treatment for the wounded." Hua Xing saw Hua Kai leave and come back, and hurriedly said, but his eyes were always fixed on the Diyinhu in the distance and he dared not move away. Even if the Diyinhu was just standing far away, he could feel the strong pressure. "Grandpa, that Diyinhu is very dangerous. You must be careful. I will watch it here and will not move around casually. Don't worry." Hua Kai said and looked outside the village. Because of the deep valley in Huajiabao, the main gate in the south of the village is where the wild beasts gather the most. Now they have gathered under the city wall outside the village, trying to jump onto the city wall one by one. The 4-meter-high wall may not be difficult for them, but it is not so easy for them to climb up the wall.
A black ghost cat just jumped onto the wall, and before it could react, several spears appeared where it was about to land. Even though the black ghost cat was agile, it was pierced by several spears at the same time. Just after jumping onto the wall and before landing, the wild beast was exhausted. If the village guard team seized the opportunity, it would be easy to seriously injure the wild beast. The possibility of the injured wild beast falling off the wall and surviving was very small.
Hua Kai looked at the city wall nervously. These wild beasts showed ferocious faces one by one, and rushed to the city wall regardless of everything. Some wild beasts with high IQs were actually the most difficult to deal with. They always looked for the gaps for the village guard team to attack, and soon people in the village guard team began to get injured.
Uncle San ordered the villagers to carry the wounded down the city wall. The defensive pressure on the city wall was getting greater and greater. Several silver monkeys quietly climbed to the side of Huajiabao. There were only two members of the Tempering Body Realm Village Protection Team in that area. Soon, a silver monkey took advantage of the opportunity to climb the city wall and jumped into the village. Fortunately, Hua Yue's reserve team was under the city wall. The silver monkey was surrounded and killed as soon as he jumped off the city wall.
"Hua Yue, you take people to the city wall quickly, Wei Hong organizes your people to prepare under the city wall quickly, Er Zhuang, you let all the young and strong in the village prepare, Lao San, prepare for the battle in the village..." Hua Xing saw that the tiger was approaching the village entrance step by step, and the wild beasts under the city wall became more and more ferocious. They jumped onto the city wall regardless of life and death, and the entire city wall was suddenly in a panic.
"The golden ape is coming, everyone be careful!" Hua Zihuan saw that the group of golden apes all ran to the side of the city wall, and hurriedly ran in the direction of the golden ape's attack.
The leader of the golden ape saw that the wall of Huajiabao was in a tight spot, so he led his tribe to launch an attack. Huajiabao lost many places on the wall at this time. Fortunately, Hua Yue led the second team to climb the wall.
Hua Kai saw a rat-like wild beast climbed up the gun head in a panic. He quickly shot the giant rat in the eye. The giant rat screamed and fell off the wall. The fourth uncle fought with the golden ape leader and could only barely stop him from climbing the wall. The village protection team was climbed up by many golden apes at once. Hua Yue and Er Zhuang had already gone to support.
At this time, the whole village was in crisis, but Huajiabao often encountered this situation every year. At this time, the village protection team tried their best to prevent the intermediate and above wild beasts from climbing the wall, and the low-level wild beasts were thrown to the village reserve team and ordinary villagers. As long as the masters of Huajiabao could drive away or kill the wild beasts outside the city, these wild beasts that entered the village would die sooner or later, but the casualties of ordinary people in the village might be greater.
"Kill..."
Hua Kai had just repelled a mid-level wild beast, and two wild beasts climbed onto the wall in front of him. He tried his best to stab a mid-level wolf, and then saw a horned bull leaping onto the wall. This horned bull was a powerful species among the high-level wild beasts. Hua Kai, who was only in the middle stage of body tempering, was no match for it at all. However, he saw that all the guards behind him had already participated in the battle. If it entered among ordinary villagers, Huajiabao would definitely suffer heavy losses.
At this time, many people also saw Hua Kai's crisis and ran to rescue him. Hua Kai knew that as long as he blocked the opponent's first wave of attacks, support personnel would arrive, but when the horned bull stepped onto the wall, Hua Kai found that he was too naive.
This high-level wild beast of horned bull is equivalent to the Kaiyuan realm of humans, and wild beasts often experience battles and fight alone, and ordinary humans are not opponents. Hua Kai naively thought that he could stop it for a moment, but when the horned bull came in front of him, he seemed to see a high-speed truck rushing towards him. Before he could react, the horned bull had come to him. At this moment, Hua Kai felt that death was so close to him. He roared and gathered all his energy in his arms, and stabbed the horned bull with all his strength.
The imagined collision did not come. Hua Kai stabbed the horned bull with the spear tip but only penetrated an inch. The horned bull ran to him and lay down directly. Hua Kai was puzzled, but he heard his grandfather's voice beside him.
"Everyone retreat, hurry up!"
Hua Kai only saw the Di Yinhu running towards the city wall at this time. It was his grandfather who saved him just now.
Being pulled down from the city wall by two servants, Hua Kai felt extremely regretful. He knew that Di Yinhu was powerful, but he had just distracted his grandfather for him, which allowed Di Yinhu to seize the opportunity to kill his grandfather. Unfortunately, this was not the time to blame himself. Hua Kai knew that staying here would only cause greater losses to the family, so he hurried to the village.
When he got to the street, Hua Kai saw many villagers fighting with wild beasts. There were quite a few wild beasts entering the village, but most of them were low-level and medium-level wild beasts, so everyone was not under too much pressure.
Hua Kai helped kill two low-level wild beasts and looked back at the city wall, only to find that since Di Yinhu climbed the city wall, although his grandfather blocked his way into the village, more wild beasts behind him crossed the city wall and entered Huajiabao.
