Becoming a God by Searching Mountains and Subduing Demons

Chapter 14 Deduction and Improvement
It was much easier to draw the stone bow. The breeze was not too dry today, so Jiang Yue just stretched out his arms and shot arrows at his prey.

There are many animals in the broad-leaved forest, and they are all herbivores. Jiang Yue only needs to pay attention to the time.

whoosh-

An arrow flew through the air and hit the deer's eyeball again, sinking deeply into its eye socket.

Xiaotian rushed forward excitedly again.

【Time + 0.1 years】

【Time: 5.71 years】

“It’s been almost six years.”

Jiang Yue chuckled in his heart and continued hunting.

【Time + 0.1 years】

【Time + 0.01 years】

【time.】

【Time: 6 years】

More than half an hour later, Jiang Yue had hunted three musk deer, a dozen pheasants, and caught three or four rat snakes, which was exactly the time he had spent in six years.

During this period, Jiang Yue also tried to cooperate with Xiaotian to hunt wild deer together, but to no avail. Wild deer were very agile and faster, and it was not something he could hunt now, even with Xiaotian's help.

The antlers on the wild deer's head looked like white silver ingots, which really made Jiang Yue jealous.

Too bad it can't be hunted now.

But today's harvest has been rich enough, so there is no need to rush.

Looking at the sun, it's time to go back.

Jiang Yue picked a lot of broad-leaved grass from the broad-leaved plain. According to his knowledge of traps, he weaved the broad-leaved grass into tough grass ropes, tied up three musk deer, and carried them on his shoulders.

As for the pheasants and rat snakes, they were put into sacks and carried by Jiang Yue.

Xiaotian is responsible for clearing the way and detecting dangers.

The man and the dog escaped unharmed and returned to the Stinky Vine Cave.

Jiang Yue held the hatchet and skinned the musk deer with ease. He even mastered a lot of skinning techniques and was three or four minutes faster than last time.

All the internal organs of the three musk deer were fed to Xiaotian.

Afterwards, he fed Xiaotian five pheasants, which finally filled Xiaotian's stomach, making it so full that he couldn't eat anything else.

[Life Essence +1]

[Life Essence: 4]

A hearty meal added a little more life essence, bringing him one step closer to the ten-point evolution.

“A fulfilling day.”

Jiang Yue rubbed the dog's head and said with a smile: "Let's go, Xiaotian, go home!"

"Wang-"

A man and a dog returned from the mountains and forests, following the shadows cast by the setting sun. They passed Wandouao and saw Funiu Village.

The setting sun is like blood, sprinkling on Funiu Village on the side of the mountain.

It is a desolate place, like a corner forgotten by the world.

The houses are dilapidated and scattered, as if telling the vicissitudes of time.

The smoke from cooking fires curls up like ghosts, and the village seems like a lonely boat swaying in the wind and rain of troubled times.

The dark shadow of the 800-mile Funiu Mountain in the distance was silent, like a stern bystander.

"Grandpa is right. As long as we can get into the mountains, there is hope."

Jiang Yue thought to himself.

A man and a dog walked over the bluestone steps and stepped into the threshold. Jiang Yue put the musk deer meat away first, motioned Xiaotian to look after the house, and then he happily went into the house.

Six years have passed, it's time to use them up!

Jiang Yue's mind moved, and he looked at the panel of the divine seal, and a bright light screen appeared in front of Jiang Yue.

【Erlang Divine Seal】

[Martial Arts]:
Archery (lv2) Trap (lv1) Herbal Bath (lv1) [Time]: 6 years

[Pet: Xiaotian]

[Life Essence: 4]

Jiang Yue looked at his "martial arts" and rubbed his chin as he thought.

He planned to allocate the resources reasonably: three years for archery, three years for medicinal baths, and give up traps.

Firstly, you cannot neglect your archery skills. With improved archery skills, you can hunt more musk deer. Maybe you can even try to hunt wild deer, which are much more valuable than musk deer.

As for the medicinal bath, Jiang Yue planned to try it out for three years to see what would happen. If there was an unexpected surprise, Jiang Yue would continue to invest. If there was no effect, he would stop investing and look for an opportunity to be an apprentice in a pharmacy run by a wealthy family in the county, learning about medicinal materials while looking for opportunities to acquire martial arts.

"Shen Yin, please help me add the medicinal bath for three years, thank you."

Jiang Yue muttered silently in his heart, and the magical panel immediately changed. The bright font was disrupted, and then the words reappeared.

[Three years of time spent on developing and improving the "medicinal bath"]

[In the first year, you stepped into the forest, full of desire for knowledge about medicinal materials. In the forest, you carefully picked an unknown leaf, put it in your mouth and chewed it carefully. The taste was bitter with a hint of spiciness. He frowned and carefully thought about the possible corresponding medicinal properties, and then carefully recorded it, accumulating experience through continuous attempts and speculations.

Just like that, you tasted hundreds of herbs in the mountains for a year. Fortunately, you were immune to toxins and survived tenaciously. 】

[In the second year, the mountains and forests will still be your classroom.

You walk along the winding path, stop when you see a new plant, gently bite off a piece of the root, and slowly taste it. Whether it is sweet or sour, each taste may be the key to unlocking the mystery of the medicinal properties.

Ignoring the discomfort in your mouth, you focus on feeling the subtle reactions of the herbs in your body, constantly revising your understanding.

Fortunately, you are immune to toxins, otherwise you would have been poisoned hundreds of times this year.

This year, you have become more and more skilled. You can skillfully identify various medicinal herbs, quickly determine the approximate range of efficacy based on the taste, and combine it with observations of plant morphology, etc., to become more and more accurate in your understanding of medicinal herbs.

Just by tasting, you have become familiar with the medicinal properties of hundreds of common medicinal herbs in the mountains. 】

[In the third year, you began to study medicinal baths, using colorful bamboo shoots as the core, combined with spiritual peaches, animal blood, and medicinal herbs, to test the degree to which the medicinal baths could temper the body.

You try again and again, experiencing more than a dozen medicinal baths every day.

A year later, you find that making a medicinal bath with colorful bamboo shoots as the core, combined with spiritual pond water, animal blood, astragalus, black armor grass, birch juice and other medicinal materials, has the best absorption and the greatest improvement!
This year, you have chosen the best from the best and picked out the most powerful medicinal bath formula for tempering your skin membrane.

This year, you have been soaking in medicinal baths every day, and your skin membrane has been tempered by 30%. 】

[End of deduction]

Three years passed in the simulation, but in reality only a moment passed. However, Jiang Yue felt as if he had really experienced those three years. In his mind, there were three more years of memories of tasting medicinal herbs from the mountains and forests and diligently studying medicinal baths.

He knows the medicinal properties of hundreds of common medicinal herbs by heart, which he learned by tasting them one bite at a time, and his memory is much deeper than that of rote learning.

Not only that, Jiang Yue also found that his skin became whiter, and there was a warm current flowing through the skin membrane. With a thought, the warm current spread out and covered 30% of the skin on his body.

"The membrane is tempered by 30%. Could it be that this warm current covers 30% of the membrane?"

Jiang Yue murmured to himself, thinking it was very likely.

Jiang Yue didn't know what to call that mysterious warm current.

Aura? Qi and blood? Internal force?
"A warrior is a warrior, a martial artist is a martial artist, so let's just call it qi and blood."

Jiang Yue smiled and didn't dwell on it too much.

He stood up excitedly and stabbed his arm with the dagger with all his strength, but only a shallow white mark was left.

If you mobilize your Qi and blood to cover your arm, and then stab it with all your strength with the dagger, not even a white mark will be left.

And when he stabbed the dagger, Jiang Yue felt that his strength had increased a lot.

Jiang Yue understood that he had accidentally embarked on the path of tempering the membrane.

It is estimated that when the qi and blood cover the skin membrane all over the body, the skin barrier will be broken.

With a thought, the panel appeared in front of Jiang Yue again.

[Martial Arts: Archery lv2, Trap lv1, Herbal Bath lv4]

"The medicinal bath actually raised the level by so many levels?!"

“Level 4!”

Jiang Yue was surprised. It seemed that he had a talent for medicinal baths.

Come to think of it, if an ordinary person tried all kinds of herbs, he would have been poisoned to death long ago. However, Jiang Yue has the talent of holding back treasures and leading sheep, and is immune to all toxins, so he can taste all kinds of herbs to test their medicinal properties, and it is normal for him to improve quickly.

"There are still three years left."

"Improve your archery skills!"

Jiang Yue silently said in his heart: "Divine Seal, please help me improve my archery skills. It will take three years. Thank you."
