Zhao Hai immediately understood what the old man meant. He nodded and said, " "Teacher's home. Although I'm a botanist, I still hope to help the village. So, can you take me to see the place that was attacked by that thing? I want to see if I can be of any help."
When the old man heard what Zhao Hai said, he was stunned. Then, he looked at Zhao Hai suspiciously and asked, " "You can really help, right? My son is a scholar, and even a scholar can't do anything about that thing. What can you do?"
The old man's words were actually a little rude, but it could not be helped. If there was a botanist who was willing to help in the soldier soul continent, the villagers would be very happy, but it was different here. In the literature continent, everything was respected by the scholars. In the eyes of these ordinary people, if a scholar could not do something, no one else could do it, so the old man said that.
When Zhao Hai heard the old man's words, he could not help but smile. &Quot; &Quot; old man, of course I can't compare to a scholar, but I'm also from the Academy, and botanists have something that scholars don't know, which is to communicate with plants. There are many plants near the village, and I want to see if there are any plants in the places that were attacked by that thing, and if I can get any clues from those plants. &Quot;
When the old man heard Zhao Hai, he was stunned. Then, his eyes lit up, " "Good, that's great. Then please follow me, my Lord." This time, his tone was much more polite.
In fact, the old man had no other choice. Although his son was a scholar, he really had no talent. Now, he could only teach the children in the village how to read. As for fighting the enemy, he was not good enough. Otherwise, he would not have gone to the Academy to ask for help.
However, going to the Academy to ask for help did not mean that the Academy would help him. In a small village like theirs, as long as it was not too serious, the Academy would generally not interfere.
Now that Zhao Hai was going to help them, the old man was still happy even though he didn't believe it. He led Zhao Hai out and soon arrived at the village. The old man led Zhao Hai to a wooden house on the outskirts of the village.
When they arrived at the wooden house, Zhao Hai found signs of an attack. Every house in the village had a wooden fence, and this house had one as well. However, it was obvious that this wooden fence had been destroyed. Under the wooden fence, there was a large hole. Half of the hole was above the ground, while the other half was underground. It looked like it was done by a wild beast.
As expected, the old man led Zhao Hai to the hole and said, " &Quot; my Lord, look, it's here. This is the house that was attacked a few days ago. That thing dug a hole through here and bit the cow in the house to death. If it had only bitten the cow to death, I would have treated it as a wild beast. But after the cow died, one of its hind legs was missing. The place where the hind leg was cut off was very smooth, as if it had been cut off with a sharp blade. &Quot;
The old man directed the cave to teach Zhao Hai, " &Quot; the attack didn't hurt anyone, but the cows were very important to the villagers, so they set up traps in some places in the village. However, they didn't expect that the village would be attacked one after another. The traps were useless. In the end, the village sent people to keep watch, but it was useless. We couldn't surround the entire village. The thing would still attack us, but it would avoid us."We couldn't even find its shadow. In the end, my son made a move. Although he wasn't talented, he was still a scholar. My son found the shadow of that thing, but he only saw a shadow. That thing was very fast. It looked like a person, but it couldn't be confirmed to be a person. So, the people in the village were very distressed."
Zhao Hai nodded and looked around. There were a few fruit trees in the yard. Just as he was about to enter the yard to take a look at the fruit trees, the door suddenly opened. A burly man walked out. He was very tall, more than 1.9 meters tall. He was very strong. Although he was not as strong as Zhao Hai, he was definitely one of the strongest people in the yard.
As soon as the brawny man saw the old man, he immediately saluted the old man and said, " "Greetings to the village chief, greetings to Lord botanist, village chief, why are you here? What's the matter?"
The old man nodded. &Quot; Shawei, Lord botanist wants to help us see what is attacking the village. Your house was the first to be attacked, so I brought Lord botanist here to take a look. &Quot;
When the brawny man heard the old man, he looked at Zhao Hai suspiciously. Then, he opened the door and said, " "Village chief, please. Lord botanist, please." After he finished speaking, he moved to the side.
Zhao Hai naturally saw the expression on the brawny man's face, but he didn't care. He followed the old man into the yard and looked around. The yard was not small. There were three fruit trees in the yard. One of them was very tall, and the other two were relatively short. The bark of the tall fruit tree was polished smooth about a meter away. It was obviously used to bolt the cattle.
Zhao Hai walked to the fruit tree and looked at the root. He reached out and touched the fruit tree, communicating with it. Soon, Zhao Hai learned from the fruit tree that the attacker was not a human, but a monkey. However, it was a mutated monkey, and it was holding a weapon in its hand. It was a big knife.
After understanding the situation, Zhao Hai moved his hand away. Actually, if he wanted to communicate with the tree, he didn't need to touch the fruit tree. However, to make the old man and the burly man believe him, he had to do this.
Zhao Hai let go of his hand and opened his eyes. As expected, he saw the old man and the brawny man looking at him in surprise. At the same time, their eyes were filled with a trace of anticipation.
Zhao Hai looked at the village chief and said in a deep voice, " &Quot; chief, the one who attacked the village was a monkey, but it's not an ordinary monkey. He knows how to use weapons and he has a big knife in his hand. I'm going to the forest outside the village to see if I can find this monkey. &Quot;
Hearing Zhao Hai's words, the village chief couldn't help but be taken aback. Then, he said with a shocked expression, " "Milord, you really found him?"
Zhao Hai nodded and said, " it can't be wrong. It was the fruit tree that told me. Village chief, you guys stay in the village and don't go out. That monkey might be a mutated animal. If you go out, you might be in danger. &Quot; After saying that, he walked out of the courtyard and into the forest beside the village.
The village head and the brawny man were shocked by Zhao Hai's actions. They didn't expect Zhao Hai to be so serious. He actually wanted to help the villagers fight the monkey. Of course, they temporarily believed that it was a monkey that attacked the village.
The two of them wanted to follow Zhao Hai into the forest, but they were chased out by his men. Zhao Hai then entered the forest himself and began communicating with the plants in the forest to find the monkey.
Not long after, Zhao Hai found it. The monkey had been targeting the village, so Zhao Hai had been active around the village. Now, the monkey was sleeping on a big tree not far from the village.
Zhao Hai slowly walked towards the big tree. After a while, he was under the tree. Zhao Hai used his spirit power to check and immediately found the monkey. It was a very tall monkey. When it stood up, it was about 1.9 meters tall. It had long black fur. Beside the monkey was a knife. It was a very wide knife that looked like a chopper. The blade was black but it seemed very sharp. What surprised Zhao Hai even more was that he could feel a trace of spirit Qi from the blade. This was very rare because he could hardly feel any spirit Qi in the soul world continent.
With a thought from Zhao Hai, the sleeping Monkey was trapped by the tree. The monkey woke up immediately. It kept screaming and struggling, but it was useless. It was thrown into Zhao Hai's space. Zhao Hai picked up the knife and looked at it carefully.
It was a pretty good weapon. The blade seemed to be made of a special metal. There was no array in the blade, but because of the special material, the blade had a certain amount of energy. If someone injected energy into the blade, the blade could even increase the energy.
Zhao Hai was a little disappointed when he saw that it was only a knife made of special materials. He put the knife back into the space and entered it. The monkey was having fun in the space. Apparently, he liked the environment there.
Zhao Hai knew that the monkey had acknowledged him as its master, so he didn't hold back. He waved his hand and called the monkey over. Then, he used his spiritual power to communicate with the monkey.
As soon as he connected with the monkey, the monkey immediately said to Zhao Hai, " &Quot; master, master, this place is really fun. There's so much good food here too. I like it here. &Quot;
"Call me young master from now on. Shi Chui, come here and teach him some rules." Zhao Hai smiled. &Quot; yes, master! &Quot; Zhao Hai shouted. Shi Chui, who had transformed into the stone hammer tree and was cultivating, turned into a bald man and appeared beside Zhao Hai. He bowed to Zhao Hai.
Zhao Hai glanced at Shi Chui and realized that he looked a little different from yesterday. Shi Chui was now wearing a set of beautiful armor that looked like it was made of white jade. It fit him perfectly. There was also a stone hammer hanging on each side of his waist. He looked like a general who had just walked out of the battlefield.
Zhao Hai looked at the stone hammer and nodded, " &Quot; not bad, Shi Chui. This set of clothes is very beautiful. Remember, when you cultivate in the future, try to use a human form. You have to get used to a human body as soon as possible. Only then can I bring you out. &Quot; Shi Chui responded and bowed to the side, no longer speaking.
Zhao Hai then turned to the monkey and said, " "Tell me, what's wrong with you? Why did they go to that village to cause trouble? Also, where did you get that saber from?"
When monkey heard Zhao Hai, he immediately said, " &Quot; young master, the people in that village killed my clansmen, so I caused trouble in the village. As for the knife, I found it in a cave. There were some strange things in there. I grew so tall after eating a fruit in the cave. &Quot; (To be continued.) &Quot; if you like this work, you're welcome to come to Qidian.com to give your recommendation and monthly vote.
