He didn't expect those who controlled the lives of others to be like this. He didn't care about those who were controlled by them; however, Xiao Li cared about Mu Long and Tian Liu. This was the fundamental difference between him and those people. Because of his concern, he had decided to do it for them. It was a good intention for them, just as parents do for their children. You know that if your kids go out, they might learn to be bad. That would be even worse for their future.
Xiao Li didn't expect this and he didn't have time to think about it. He shook his head, trying not to think about it. Now was not the time to think about such things. They did not even have the basic means of survival, and the most important thing right now was to learn how to hunt.
When Mu Long and Tian Liu saw Xiao Li shaking his head non-stop, they asked in concern, ”Big brother, what's wrong?”
When Xiao Li heard the sound, he finally woke up from his contemplation and said, ”It's nothing, let's eat.” When we're done eating, we'll go back to work. ”
From that day onwards, Xiao Li and the other two people did two things a day: First, they observed the various animals' activities, their lives, their movements, their range of movement, and their habits. To think and set up all kinds of ingenious traps, and to improve and make all kinds of hunting tools. Of course, most of these tasks were done by Xiao Li. Wood Dragon and Tian Six spent most of their time taking inventory of their daily income and doing daily household chores.
Xiao Li's research on these things allowed him to obtain a great harvest. These gains were not limited to just hunting. He had gained a lot of knowledge from his research.
For example, in his studies of animals, he was particularly involved in their movements, and he imitated their various attacks and escapes. This made him realize that the movements of these animals could actually bring out the true energy within his body. When he used this move, his attack power was extremely powerful. In terms of escaping, he was even faster than those animals. Now he finally understood the use of this Zhen Qi. It could assist him in his movements, allowing him to be several times, or even dozens of times stronger than when he wasn't using his real Qi. After he made these discoveries, he worked even harder on this. However, he still did not understand. Why was it that his true qi could not be triggered by any movement? ”It was the same when he was fighting with others, or when he was treating the wound. It was as if he could only use it in times of extreme danger or stress, but most of the movements of these animals could make him move. It really puzzled him.
Secondly, he had also made great progress in making hunting tools. His research in this area gave him a preliminary insight into the manufacturing of instruments. He thought that although the beasts were stronger than they were, they still died under these instruments; if they were used against people, then he was confident that he could kill people as strong as these beasts. They were currently being chased down by their enemies. If they were caught by their enemies, then they would have a better chance of survival. Therefore, he had spent a lot of time and effort in this area. He had spent a lot of time and effort in this area.
Xiao Li and the others had originally planned to only hide in the mountain for eight to ten days. However, he didn't expect Xiao Li to be obsessed with studying animals and equipment and stayed in the mountain for half a year.
During this half year, Xiao Li made great progress. He finally had a breakthrough in how to utilize the true energy within his body. He used various movements made by animals to draw the zhenqi in his body to move, increasing the lethality of these attacks by multiple folds.
In fact, this was an inevitable result. The attacks of all kinds of ferocious beasts were the best attacks that could display their strength through generations of experiments using their blood and life. It could be said that these were all their family's secret techniques. Although these actions only displayed the full strength of the animal, the true energy within Xiao Li's body was also a type of energy. Thus, it could naturally play a role in displaying the true energy's strength. Although it could only be partially used, it was a good start.
Although Xiao Li knew he had made great progress, he didn't know how much progress he had made. He felt that this half year of hard work was very useful. As a result, he wanted to improve further, so he didn't relax for a day and spent every day thinking and studying. Unfortunately, there were some things that were not as easy as he wanted them to be. These days, he found that his research had reached the extreme. The movements of these animals could only play these effects of his zhenqi and could no longer improve. There was no better way to improve the equipment. Although he felt that the power of the zhenqi in his body was not only limited to these, it also had a lot of potential that he had yet to unleash. Although he felt that these apparatus could still be modified, he could only reach this limit and could not advance any further.
In the past few days, Xiao Li hadn't made a breakthrough in his research and was feeling extremely depressed in his heart. A person's mood is not good, as if the heavens will make things difficult for them. The three of them had lost a lot of prey these days. He had managed to catch a few the day before yesterday, but today, there were only three rabbits in total.
Xiao Li was already in a bad mood, so he said to Mu Long and Tian Liu, ”Let's go out for a walk. ”Let's go outside to check on the reason. It seems like all the wild animals have moved in the past few days. I don't know where they have gone.”
Mu Long and Tian Liu were initially very worried when they saw Liu Ming's trouble with research these few days. Now, he actually offered to go out for a walk. Naturally, they were very happy. Everyone took their bows and arrows and went out to hunt.
Xiao Li and the other two were surprised that they did not find a single prey after walking for a few miles. Tian Liu grumbled, ”What's wrong with all of this? After walking for such a long time, we still haven't seen a single wild animal. Could it be that all these wild beasts are afraid of us and have moved their entire family away? ”
Xiao Li said, ”Beasts are never afraid of humans. Think about it, if they were afraid of us killing them, they would have already moved away. However, now it seems that they have really moved away. We have not seen a single trace of them after we searched so far, nor have we seen a single trap with any results. There definitely won't be a single wild beast moving within a radius of a few miles. They seem to have moved away because they are afraid of something, something that must have just arrived. I think that's the best explanation at the moment. However, this thing can scare away all of the wild beasts. It must not be simple, everybody be careful. ”
Mu Long and Tian Liu replied, ”Yes, I understand.”
Xiao Li, however, was a little excited as he said, ”Hehe, it came at the right time. I want to see how I've been doing these past few months.”
Mu Long and Tian Liu looked at each other and smiled. They never doubted Xiao Li's strength. Now, they could finally see him make a move.
Xiao Li and the other two searched the interior and exterior of the cave with excitement and nervousness, but didn't find anything else. They felt slightly disappointed as Xiao Li doubted his own judgement.
