Buzz!
At that very instant, Chen Feng felt all kinds of memories about archery flood into his mind.
Originally, he had merely been an ordinary person who had never touched a bow, but now, with a bow and arrow in hand, he felt incomparably familiar with them, as though he had practiced archery for many years.
A warm current surged through his body.
His formerly frail body began to undergo a strengthening.
Name: Chen Feng Strength: 10 Spirit: 8 Speed: 7 Skills: Nutrient Absorption (Beginner progress 53%), Basic Archery (Proficient progress 1%), Trap Arts (Beginner progress 5%) Beginner Talent: Hundred-Step Piercing Willow (Within a hundred steps, your archery accuracy is 100%) Cultivation: None
Looking at the panel information, Chen Feng slowly closed his eyes and sensed the changes within his body.
Then, he gripped the longbow, abruptly opened his eyes, and without even needing to take a careful look, loosed an arrow.
Bang!
A dull thud rang out.
In the dim night, the arrow struck dead center in the target.
"It worked." Chen Feng chuckled.
He felt that he finally possessed a sliver of strength to protect himself.
By now, the sky had gradually darkened.
Their Black Mountain Village lay at the foot of Black Mountain.
At times, they also had to guard against demons descending from the mountain to devour people. Thus, nearly every household shut their doors early, without even lighting lamps.
Only the occasional strange sound drifted over.
When he looked back, Lin Xue was still waiting for him in the living room.
Their home was a two-bay mud-brick house, with three rooms and a mud-brick living room.
A month ago, his father had died.
According to rural customs, the original owner had needed to observe mourning for three months.
Moreover, according to the original owner's memories, he had been dissatisfied with the Lin Xue his father had bought. Lin Xue was thin and slender, while the original owner had wanted a woman who could help with the farm work.
Thus, there had never been much physical intimacy between them.
Chen Feng sighed inwardly.
After saying something to Lin Xue, he put out the lamp.
The two of them each went into their own rooms.
After hearing the sound of the lamp being extinguished in the room next door.
Chen Feng also blew out his lamp and lay on the wooden plank bed. In the darkness, there was even a faint musty smell.
Faintly, he could also hear the long howls of wild beasts coming from the distant mountains.
He sighed inwardly. Things really were different from before!
The news of his transmigration and fusion, as well as the pressure of repaying the money afterward.
All kinds of different thoughts kept flashing through his mind.
Just then, a somewhat scorching body suddenly slipped beneath his blanket.
"Husband, I'm a little scared!"
The body was soft and burning hot.
Having only just arrived in this unfamiliar world, with his mind full of thoughts, Chen Feng could not hold back when such a delicate body embraced him.
The night passed.
The next day, Chen Feng woke up.
He looked at the soft arm and little hand draped over him.
A faint smile appeared on his face. He felt that the emptiness in his heart from arriving in this world had seemingly weakened somewhat.
Then he looked at the panel information he had not had time to check last night.
You completed a pleasant night of married life and awakened a new skill: Yin Yang Arts. Skill: Yin Yang Arts (Beginner progress 10%)
Looking at the information on the panel, Chen Feng's eyes filled with surprise. "I actually awakened a new skill too? And it gained 10% experience in one go!"
"If that's the case, wouldn't just a few more times raise Yin Yang Arts to Proficient progress?"
"Then wouldn't that awaken a new talent?"
As Chen Feng thought about this, his heart stirred.
After all, judging from the increase in archery progress, it would not only greatly improve his skills, but also raise his other attributes!
However, when he saw Lin Xue waking groggily, her brows still slightly furrowed, he pressed that thought down for the time being.
"Husband, I'll go make you breakfast."
Lin Xue woke up and saw Chen Feng watching her from beside her. Feeling somewhat shy, she hurriedly tried to get up.
Chen Feng held Lin Xue down and smiled. "No need."
"I'll do it today!"
Then he got up and used the rice they had bought yesterday.
He cooked two bowls of thin porridge.
You drank a bowl of warm thin porridge. Nutrient Absorption proficiency +5. Skill: Nutrient Absorption (Beginner progress 58%)
Looking at the panel information.
Chen Feng pondered inwardly. It was stronger than yesterday, but evidently, he would need to eat meat to raise Nutrient Absorption progress more quickly.
As he watched Lin Xue clear away the bowls and chopsticks, Chen Feng said, "Xue'er, when you're at home, keep the doors and windows shut. If anything happens, you can call out to Aunt Liu next door. I'll head to Black Mountain again later."
Lin Xue's face showed some worry. "Husband, you've only just recovered. Shouldn't you rest for a few more days?"
Chen Feng shook his head. "It's fine. This time, I'll only wander around the foot of Black Mountain and see if I can run into some wild rabbits or deer. I won't go too deep into the mountain."
Lin Xue nodded. "All right, I'll listen to you, Husband."
Afterward, Chen Feng took the bow, arrows, and machete left behind by his father, along with more than ten arrows, and prepared to enter Black Mountain.
No matter what, he had to enter the mountain eventually.
Moreover, with the Tax Silver and the deadline for repaying Huang Lao Si's money looming over him, the debt of more than three taels of silver would be too late to deal with if he did not quickly find a solution.
Also, his skills needed meat to improve quickly.
After Chen Feng left the village.
He followed the road from his memories toward the outskirts of Black Mountain.
After Chen Feng had not been in the mountain for long, several figures quickly gathered together.
They were none other than Wang Hu from the hunting party and his lackeys, the brothers Yang Hao and Yang Bao.
Yang Hao wore a strange expression as he said, "Captain, Chen Feng's got some nerve, huh? He dared enter the mountain right after recovering?"
A cold sneer appeared on Wang Hu's face. "Heh heh, in these times, people with nerve never live long."
"Come on, let's follow him."
"Last time, he was lucky to survive. Let's see how he gets out this time."
The group then swiftly followed after him.
The Black Mountain range was vast, and there had always been all kinds of rumors about demons devouring people.
Although there was usually no danger on the outskirts, Chen Feng still remained very cautious.
After entering the mountain, he began cutting branches and such to set up several small traps.
Chen Feng truly had no intention of entering the depths of Black Mountain. He only wanted to catch some birds or the like, which would be enough for him to grow stronger.
You set up a small trap. Trap Arts proficiency +1. You set up a fairly dangerous small trap. Trap Arts proficiency +2.
Based on the size and strength of the traps he built, his Trap Arts proficiency continued to rise.
Looking at the several dozen traps of varying sizes.
As well as the birds circling in the sky, anticipation appeared in Chen Feng's eyes. He should not return empty-handed today, right?
But at that moment.
Chen Feng narrowed his eyes and turned to look behind him.
Rustle, rustle!
At this very moment, several figures emerged from the woods.
Looking at the little traps set up on the ground.
The leader immediately mocked him, "Hahaha, Chen Feng, you call yourself a hunter, yet you want to hunt with this kind of child's play?"
"Is something wrong with your brain?"
