Chapter 139 Obtaining the White Crane Palm, the Ghost-Faced Giant Ape

A secret book, a stack of gold notes, a box of dried meat, and a few bottles of drug powder.

These are all the things Zhao Ya found from the masked man.

The gold notes were worth more than a thousand taels, which was a windfall.

But compared with the dried meat and the secret book, it was still not enough. After all, Zhao Ya found that many precious resources could not be bought with money.

He picked up a piece of dried meat and looked at it for a while, and found that it was also the dried meat of a water beast, but it contained good blood and qi, which should be at the same level as the seven-star blood eel dried meat supplied by Dingtai Martial Arts Hall.

There are about thirty or forty pieces in this box, which is much more than the stack of gold notes if converted into gold prices.

And dried meat is not too much.

So Zhao Ya was very satisfied to collect the full box of dried meat.

Finally, Zhao Ya picked up the secret book.

There was no name on the page of this secret book. When he opened it, he found that it actually recorded a palm method.

Zhao Ya's eyes lit up.

When fighting with the masked man, the palm technique he used left a deep impression on Zhao Ya.

The tricky moves and the vicious palm power were no less than the Flipping Palm of Chenfeng Martial Arts School.

If this secret book recorded the palm technique used by the masked man, then Zhao Ya would have made a fortune this time.

Zhao Ya immediately checked it carefully.

After a long time, Zhao Ya read the secret book carefully, then sighed slightly, and a hint of disappointment appeared on his face.

This palm technique was not the one used by the masked man, but a palm technique called White Crane Palm.

Despite this, Zhao Ya was still very happy.

Because this set of palm techniques is feminine, the force is soothing, and the power is also very good, it is very suitable for women to practice for self-defense.

Now Zui'er's body skills are getting better and better, and his sword skills can barely be seen, but his fists and feet are still lacking a lot.

You should know that even those who have profound attainments in weapons dare not slack off in their fist and foot skills.

Because weapons cannot be carried with them all the time, but fists and feet are always there.

In an emergency, a set of appropriate fist and foot skills can save lives.

And this palm method is just suitable for Zui'er to practice.

As for the bottles of drugs, Zhao Ya identified them and found that they were basically the same as those seized before, so he filled the inventory.

The recent battles made Zhao Ya more and more aware that poison can play a role in turning the tide at a critical moment.

If he hadn't secretly poisoned it, he wouldn't have been able to kill the masked man so easily.

So Zhao Ya decided that in addition to practicing, he couldn't stop studying poisons in the future.

It just so happened that the number of strange beasts outside the city was increasing day by day, and many of them were highly poisonous. This was also a rare opportunity.

If some strange and bizarre poisons of strange beasts could be found, the toxicity of the prepared poison would surely be more powerful.

Five days later.

Zhao Ya looked at Zui'er who was practicing the White Crane Palm diligently, and nodded secretly.

Let's not talk about anything else, Zui'er's comprehension is still very good.

In just a few days, she was able to practice the White Crane Palm in a decent manner.

Although this is just the beginning, and she has only learned some basics, this progress is also acceptable.

Next, she will have to rely on hard work to hone it bit by bit.

There is no shortcut for this kind of thing, and it can only be polished bit by bit with time.

After Zhao Ya gave a few instructions, he took the things he needed and went to the forest outside the city.

During this period, in addition to teaching Zui'er at home and going to the martial arts hall, he basically spent the rest of his time in the forest catching poisonous animals.

Pah.

A small stone hit the seven inches of a second-level beast, a black-spotted cobra.

The black-spotted cobra fell directly from the tree trunk.

Zhao Ya came closer, bent down to pick up the cobra that had been knocked unconscious, put it in a special bag, and then hung it around his waist.

The whole process was extremely skillful.

At this time, Zhao Ya had seven or eight bags of different sizes hanging around his waist, which contained poisonous snakes, centipedes, and even a toad as big as a bowl.

After catching this second-level cobra, Zhao Ya was ready to go back.

These poisons were enough for him to conduct another experiment.

However, Zhao Ya still had some regrets.

Because he had been wandering in the mountains and forests for so long, the poisons he saw were relatively common.

This also meant that the poisons he prepared would be very unoriginal.

But Zhao Ya also knew that it would take a little luck to catch rare poisons.

After Zhao Ya put away his things and made sure that the bags were tied tightly, he walked out of this low-lying area and walked along a rugged mountain road towards the county town.

It was about seventy miles away from the county town. With Zhao Ya's speed, he would definitely be able to get home before dark, so Zhao Ya walked slowly, observing the surrounding mountains and forests while walking, trying to find some rarer exotic animal poisons.

But after walking for 20 or 30 miles, Zhao Ya suddenly heard a cry for help from the distant forest.

Zhao Ya stopped and listened.

Sure enough, someone was shouting for help.

After confirming the source of the voice, Zhao Ya flashed into the forest.

After a few leaps, Zhao Ya arrived at the scene.

However, Zhao Ya did not rush to show up, but hid behind a big tree and observed carefully.

After all, there are many bandits in the forest.

Even though this place is not far from the county town, it is still not peaceful.

Some of the bandits would deliberately shout for help to attract the attention of others in order to attract passers-by into the ambush circle.

However, when Zhao Ya looked at the scene, he realized that he was too suspicious this time.

He saw three men in the scene trying their best to deal with a giant ape.

This giant ape was two meters tall, with bulging muscles, shiny fur, and a face very similar to that of a human, but with a circle of white hair around its lips, looking like a grinning ghost, very strange and terrifying.

After seeing this giant ape, Zhao Ya's face sank.

Because he saw the strength of this giant ape.

At least the third realm, or even the peak of the third realm.

You must know that this level of strange beast, even if there were any in the past, only existed in the deep mountains and old forests, and rarely appeared in front of people.

But now its traces have appeared in this place only forty or fifty miles away from the county town, which is obviously not a good sign.

At this time, the three men were exhausted. They only managed to stop the giant ape's attack by relying on one of them to draw his bow and arrow from time to time.

But the quiver behind the man was almost empty, and it was obvious that he could not hold on for much longer.

Therefore, fear appeared on the faces of the three men, and they kept shouting for help.

Faced with this situation, Zhao Ya naturally could not stand by and watch.

He pulled out the meteorite knife, leaped from behind the tree to the field, and stabbed the giant ape on the head.

But the giant ape was not only extremely strong, but also extremely agile.

After sensing the danger, it rolled over to avoid Zhao Ya's knife, then roared, raised a palm as big as a palm fan and slapped it.

Zhao Ya turned his wrist, and the knife flashed again, directly cutting the giant ape's wrist.

The giant ape actually changed its moves, withdrew its hand, and barely avoided the blade.

But with Zhao Ya's current attainments in swordsmanship, how could he dodge so easily?

After the sword missed, the sword changed from slashing downward to slashing upward.

With a sound of "puff".

A cut was made on the chest of the giant ape, and blood flowed out instantly.

Feeling the pain, the giant ape became ferocious and slapped Zhao Ya's head with both palms.

If this palm hits, not to mention the head, even a stone will be broken.

At this moment, an arrow flew diagonally and went straight to the giant ape's left eye.

The timing and angle of this arrow were extremely accurate.

The giant ape had no time to dodge, and an arrow was nailed into his left eye.

At the same time, Zhao Ya's sword flashed, and the giant ape's two palms were chopped off.

At this time, the giant ape finally realized that Zhao Ya was not easy to mess with, so even if his hands were chopped off, he did not fight, but fled.

But how could Zhao Ya let it go?

Such a beast at the peak of the third realm was nothing to Zhao Ya now, but it was a huge threat to others.

So he hurried a few steps and slashed across with a knife.

The giant ape trembled, and then a huge head flew out.

Then the huge body fell to the ground with a bang, stirring up a cloud of dust.

Zhao Ya pointed the tip of the knife at the ground, causing the blood on the blade to slide, and then raised his eyes to look at the three people in the distance.

At this time, the three people had already walked over.

Zhao Ya silently prepared.

If they dared to make any unusual movements, Zhao Ya would not mind chopping off a few more heads.

The three people obviously also noticed Zhao Ya's vigilance, so they all stood not far away.

The man holding the bow first put the bow and arrow on the ground, and the other two put down two large slingshots.

Then the three spread their hands, indicating that they no longer had any weapons in their hands.

Then the man holding the bow said, "May I ask if you are the fifth master of Dingtai Martial Arts School, Zhao Ya, the young man?"

"Do you recognize me?" Zhao Ya said indifferently.

The man holding the bow let out a long sigh of relief, and then smiled and said, "How many people who practice martial arts in the county city now don't recognize you?"

He clasped his fists and said respectfully, "I am Pan Xuexian, a disciple of Baibu Martial Arts School in the county city, and these two are my junior brothers Yang Ping and Jiang Zhong."

The two also came forward to clasp their fists and salute Zhao Ya.

Zhao Ya also relaxed a little after hearing this.

He knew that Baibu Martial Arts School was a martial arts school specializing in shooting.

No wonder Pan Xuexian's archery skills were so superb that he could last so long in front of this giant ape.

"How did the three of you come here and encounter this giant ape?" Zhao Ya asked.

Pan Xuexian sighed upon hearing this, "To be honest, I came out this time to hunt some small exotic animals and exchange some money to subsidize the martial arts school."

"But I didn't expect to encounter a relatively rare exotic animal, the mountain goat, not long after leaving the city. It was also because the three of us brothers were blinded by the benefits and followed it all the way here. As a result, we didn't catch the mountain goat, but encountered this beast. If it weren't for your timely rescue, the three of us would have died here today."

This gratitude came from the bottom of my heart.

Just now, Pan Xuexian really thought that he would die.

After all, he had just broken through the third realm this year. Although he was good at archery, it was simply wishful thinking to deal with this giant ape at the peak of the third realm.

But I didn't expect Zhao Ya to appear suddenly, and then cut the giant ape under the knife like cutting melons and vegetables.

At this point, Pan Xuexian knew that the rumors were true.

This young man who defeated the senior sister of Chenfeng Martial Arts School as soon as he broke through the fourth realm was really terrifying.

At this time, Zhao Ya didn't know what to say after hearing what Pan Xuexian said.

Hunting has become popular in the county city recently, and many people want to make a fortune on exotic beasts.

At first, there were only some small warriors in the first and second realms, but later even some larger martial arts halls began to get involved.

The strength of the Baibu Martial Arts Hall is not strong, it can only be barely regarded as a medium-sized martial arts hall, and the consumption of practicing shooting is very huge, so it is understandable to go out of the city to hunt to supplement the family income.

But the appearance of this giant ape made Zhao Ya feel heavy in his heart.

Before, the exotic beasts that appeared outside the city were basically the first and second realms, and there were very few in the third realm, and there was no one in the peak third realm.

But the appearance of this giant ape obviously broke this speculation.

And Zhao Ya had a hunch that there would be more and more exotic beasts of this level in the future.

"Be more careful in the future. It's okay to make some money, but don't get yourself involved." Zhao Ya reminded.

The three of them naturally thanked him profusely, and then left in a hurry.

After they left, Zhao Ya walked to the body of the giant ape and cut open the body with a meteorite knife to see if there was a meat field.

The result was naturally that there was none.

For a beast like the giant ape, the probability of exploding a meat field is shockingly low.

However, Zhao Ya did not give up, but instead searched carefully.

He thought of the day in the cave, when the woman ordered people to cut open the body of the giant-winged blood bat and take out a bead.

But after searching for a long time, there was nothing at all.

Zhao Ya sighed.

It seems that the bead should only exist on the fifth-level beast.

The body of the giant ape had been cut into pieces at this time.

But most of it is unusable.

Because in addition to some organs of the beast that can be used as medicine, the other flesh and blood are often highly toxic, and the qi and blood contained in it will dissipate with its death, turning into worthless garbage.

Only the meat field that exploded from the beast can cultivate clean and non-toxic dried meat.

However, Zhao Ya always felt that this meat field was very similar to some kind of disease that occurred in the beast.

It's similar to the cow gall and dog treasure.

I just don't know if this guess is accurate.

Not finding anything valuable, Zhao Ya abandoned the giant ape's body and returned to the county city.

At night.

After Zhao Ya finished his homework, he came to the exclusive room and began to experiment.

He first opened the cobra's bag and grabbed the snake's head before it could react.

With a little force, the cobra's mouth opened, revealing two sharp fangs.

Zhao Ya pressed the two fangs on the mouth of a clean cup and applied a little force.

The clear and transparent venom flowed into the bottom of the cup.

After four or five times, the venom was emptied and the cobra wilted.

Zhao Ya threw it into the bag and tied it up again, and then took out a centipede and did the same to extract the venom.

If other people did this, they would definitely be terrified, after all, if they were not careful, they might die if they were bitten.

But Zhao Ya did it as smoothly as flowing water, without any hesitation at all.

These poisonous things had no dignity in his hands.

After all, he had the gift of being immune to all poisons, and he did this experiment every day, so it was impossible for him not to be skilled in the movements.
