The first night I spent in the other world was a little scary.

"System, if I fall asleep, can you help me keep watch? If anything happens, warn me immediately."

"Host, are you afraid? The system will serve you wholeheartedly."

"Well, I'm scared, so please."

Of course I am afraid. I have been afraid of ghosts since I was a child, and I feel extremely insecure.

In the previous life, let’s say the thirty years of living on Earth in the 21st century were the previous life.

I am scared to sleep alone, so I keep the lights on all night before I can slowly fall asleep.

Maybe he is a child who is born insecure.

Now I am alone in this strange world, in a strange environment, a strange inn, and only with the company of the system can I spend the rest of the nights.

The light from the oil lamp slowly reflected the shadows in the room. Wang Naya opened her eyes and looked at the door.

Even though I used a table and a stool to prop up the door, I was still very scared, holding the sword I bought today in my hand.

The pain experienced during the day, the wild beasts seen, and the horrific experiences in Liang Fang's memory.

These experiences are spurring me to grow, but I am really a timid person, haha, but I will grit my teeth and persevere.

As I thought about it, my head began to feel dizzy and I began to feel sleepy, and gradually I fell asleep.

The system is running at full capacity at this moment, sensing everything in the room. It wants to protect the host.

I had a very long dream that night. It was a mess and I couldn’t remember much of it when I woke up.

I vaguely remember that someone seemed to have been calling my name and saying that he had been waiting for me.

I didn't pay much attention to the dream. I got up, blew out the oil lamp, and moved the table and chairs against the door away.

I went downstairs to get some buns and asked the shopkeeper if I could stay another night.

After returning to the room, she ate the buns, changed into black tights, tied all her hair up into a high ponytail, put on a mask that covered the upper half of her face, picked up the sword and went out.

After changing into men's clothes, I was less conspicuous along the way.

By the way, I went to the drug store owner to ask if anyone wanted to form a team to go to the Black Wind Mountains.

The owner of the drugstore saw a young boy dressed in black, wearing a mask and holding a sword walking into the drugstore.

"Manager Li, I came to ask you if there is anyone in this town who is forming a team to go to the Black Wind Mountains."

Shopkeeper Li heard the black-clad young man's voice which seemed somewhat familiar. Although she tried to keep it down, if someone had never seen her before, he would definitely not recognize her. Why was she dressed like this today?

"There are indeed people in this town who are forming a team to go to the Black Wind Mountains. Go out of my shop and walk to the end. There are people recruiting to form a team to go to the Black Wind Mountains."

"Thank you, Manager Li, for bothering me."

After coming out of the pharmacy, I followed the road pointed by the shopkeeper and found a sign at the end saying Recruiting team members.

After asking, I found out that they were indeed recruiting team members to go to Black Wind Mountains.

Half an hour later, a total of five people, including Wang Naya, hired a coachman to drive the carriage to the Black Wind Mountains.

The captain of this team was a sturdy man carrying a big knife.

"My last name is Liu. The five of us in this team can use numbers to represent each other's identities, so it's easier to communicate."

"Since I'm the captain and the oldest, you can call me number one, you can call me number two, you can call me number three, you can call me number four, and you can call me number five."

Number One pointed at each of the opponents and called out their code names. Wang Naya looked the weakest in the team, so she was called Number Five.

I had no interest in such boring things as code names, so I just sat in the car and closed my eyes to rest.

The other people in the car didn't say anything else. After all, they were about to enter the Black Wind Mountains, so they all had a good rest and were refreshed for hunting.

Wang Naya went over the key points of the Poison Sect's acupuncture technique over and over in her mind:

It must be fast, accurate and ruthless, and accurately penetrate the acupuncture points of the human body to quickly penetrate the venom into the body.

“It takes more practice.”

This time when I go to the Black Wind Mountains, in addition to finding herbs, I also have to practice acupuncture so that I will have a certain ability to protect myself in the future.

In this world, the strong are respected. If you want to live a good life, you must constantly make yourself stronger.

The carriage sped along and arrived at the foot of the Black Wind Mountains in an hour.

Several people got off the car and number one gave the driver money.

"Number One, how much should I give you for this car?"

Adhering to good modern custom, Wang Naya prepared to share the fare with No. 1.

Number One felt quite surprised, because he was the one who organized the team, and no team member had ever taken the initiative to express his desire to share the travel expenses.

"This number five has good character."

He had some favorable impression on No. 5 and said:

"You don't have to pay for the ride. We just need to work together. I hope we can catch more good prey today."

"The five of us are going to enter the inner edge of the Black Wind Mountains, which is quite dangerous."

"Remember not to act on your own. I have been in the inner circle several times and have more experience, so you must obey my command."

"Do you have any objections?"

Number One said and glanced at everyone.

Everyone responded:

"No."

"It's all up to you."

"it is good"

After getting everyone's response, No. 1 turned around and began to walk into the Black Wind Mountains.

"Let's set off now. Remember to be careful and keep close to the team."

Wang Naya followed behind the team, and the medical and poison systems were searching for herbs nearby.

Since the number of herbs in the herb planting space has increased, the system's search range has expanded from one meter to two meters.

According to this situation, the more herbs are planted in the planting space, the larger the space territory will be, and the greater the chance of finding herbs.

For Wang Naya, the Black Wind Mountains are a huge treasure.

The group marched along the main road outside the Black Wind Mountains and encountered many pheasants and rabbits along the way.

But no one stopped. The beasts in the inner area were more valuable, and no one wanted to waste time on small prey.

After walking quickly for half an hour, we got closer and closer to the inner circle, and more and more animals began to appear.

"The prey in the inner circle is more ferocious. If you want to get a high value, you have to catch them alive."

"A dead prey is worth at most ten taels of silver, and a living one is at least forty or fifty taels, so we tried our best to catch it alive this time."

Number One explained to us as we walked.

"There are many ferocious wolves, tigers and leopards in the inner circle. The beast king lives in the deepest part. Previously, the Lord of Yuncheng gathered hundreds of people to capture a lion king, but most of them were killed and failed."

"As long as we catch two alive, we can leave the others alone. The five of us must earn at least a hundred taels for this trip to be worthwhile."

After hearing what No. 1 said, everyone felt more at ease.

The risk factor for five people traveling together is relatively much lower, and each person can get about 20 taels after the end, so this operation is still quite good.

Wang Naya was also thinking in her heart:

If I complete the task, I can get twenty taels. Apart from selling potions, the rest of my life will be much easier. It turns out that teaming up with others is the best choice.

"Number One, what kind of prey are we going to capture alive?"

Number Two inquired.

Number One and a few others had just turned into a dense forest and replied:

"I found a white fox at the bottom of a cliff last time, but it was very alert and moved very quickly. It disappeared as soon as I got close to it. If I could catch a white fox, I believe the price would be very high."

"There are many noble ladies in Yuncheng who love the beautiful white fox. I believe it can be sold for hundreds of taels. If we sell it in the trading hall, it can at least sell for fifty or sixty taels."

When No. 1 said this, everyone understood that the first target to be captured was the white fox.

"The inner area is ahead. Everyone, please be alert. There are many poisonous creatures in there. We are not only facing ferocious beasts, but also poisonous creatures."

The system identified many medicinal and poisonous weeds along the way, but everyone was busy on the road and had no time to collect the herbs, so they could only collect them on the way back.

"The herbs are there anyway, so there's no need to rush."

I thought I should prepare more sleeping pills. It would be more reliable to capture him alive or knock him out with drugs.

She asked the system:

"System, do you still have the herbs to make the drug?"

"There are still some herbs for making drugs in the host's planting space, but remember to replenish them in time~"

"Okay, once we catch the white fox, I'll start collecting herbs. Now take out the herbs and start making the drug."

"But system, the white fox is very agile and I can't get close to it. How can I charm it?"

Thinking of what No. 1 said about the characteristics of the white fox, I felt a little annoyed.

"Host, your needle technique can reach a target range of up to ten meters, but the host's hand strength can only reach a distance of two meters at present."

"Two meters is definitely not enough. White foxes are very alert and may detect anyone within 20 meters. We have to think of a way."

"The host can create smoke, and the white fox just needs to inhale the smoke."

"Smoke? How to make it?"

"The host can sprinkle the drug on the semi-dry and wet grass and then light it. This inhalation-type smoke has a wider range."

"As long as the host takes precautions and makes the antidote and takes it in advance, he will not be affected."

"Do you have any herbs for the antidote now?"

"We are still short of one herb for the antidote. Host, please go and look for it first."

"Well, I have to tell them about this plan first."

While Wang Naya was communicating with the system, she never stopped following the team.

Unlike before when I had to devote my entire spiritual consciousness to communicate with the system, now I can divide my attention to control my body.

"A little further ahead is the valley where I saw the white fox last time."

After Number One finished speaking, he slowly stopped walking, raised his hand to signal everyone to slow down, and then walked slowly towards the valley ahead.

"Number One, I wonder what arrest plans you have?"

Wang Naya asked in a low voice.

"There is no good solution at the moment. We can only go over and take a look at the situation. Then the five of us will spread out and surround and capture them."

Number One actually didn’t have any good ideas.

"Well, I have an idea here, I wonder if it will work."

"Oh? Tell me what you think."

Number One became interested after hearing what Number Five said. He knew that according to his plan, he had no chance of catching him, but he didn't want to let everyone lose morale.

"Here I have the smoke my grandfather passed down to me. As long as I light it, the wind will blow the smoke to the white fox."

"After it inhales the smoke, its limbs will go limp, and then we can just catch it."

She patiently explained her plan to them and saw that they stared at her with lights in their eyes.

"Number Five! Why didn't you tell me earlier that you have such a powerful smoke trap? With your smoke trap, we will definitely have a lot of gains this time!"

"Yeah, Number Five, I never knew you had this trick. Your grandfather is really amazing!"

"Number Five, I will submit to you instead of anyone else!"

They began to respect Number Five. They had not felt anything when they saw this skinny boy before and just hoped that he would not be a drag. But now they realized that their previous views were a bit biased.

"Number Five, your plan is great. Let's follow your plan. However, since this smoke can confuse the white fox, will it affect us?"

As expected of number one, he looked at the problem from a very accurate angle and pointed out the disadvantages of smoke at once.

"Well, No. 1 is right. We need to take the antidote before we can light the smoke."

"At the moment, I am still missing a herb to make an antidote, so I have to look for it first."

"Okay, then let's accompany No. 5 to look for herbs first, and by the way, see if there are any other targets to capture alive. Since we have No. 5's smoke, it won't be a problem to capture two or three more alive!"

After the few people made the decision, they began to search around the valley. Wang Naya looked for herbs, while they observed whether there were other targets to capture within a range of ten meters.

After searching for an hour, I collected two hundred herbs and fifty or sixty poisonous weeds.

"The herbs in the inner area of ​​this mountain range are indeed much richer than those in the outer area. If I could come here a few more times, I would really make a lot of money."

I was very happy because the search range of the herbal space had been increased to four meters, which reduced the difficulty of finding medicines a lot.

"No. 1, No. 2, No. 3, No. 4, I have found the herb. Have you found anything?"

When they heard No. 5's voice, they hurried over.

"Did you find it? That's great. I just found a spotted tiger in that direction. It should be worth hundreds of taels alive, but it's a bit difficult to find."

Number Two told everyone about his discovery.

"A living tiger is indeed very valuable. The tigers that were hunted before were all seriously injured or dead, and they were also worth forty or fifty taels."

Number One thought for a moment and continued to ask:

"Number Five, I wonder if your smoke can knock out the tiger and keep it unconscious for a few hours?"

"Yes, you can. But I will prepare the antidote first. I need some quiet time. You will guard five meters away for a quarter of an hour. After you take the antidote, we will start the action."

After hearing what No. 5 said, they didn't say anything and walked out about five meters to guard.

I saw No. 5 sitting cross-legged with his back turned on the ground, fiddling with two bottles and jars. I thought he was preparing medicine, so I didn't look at him any further.

Of course, Wang Naya was just pretending to fiddle with the two bottles. She couldn't possibly create an antidote out of thin air and arouse suspicion.

After fiddling with it for a while, his spiritual consciousness had already started making the antidote in the herb warehouse.

A quarter of an hour later, the antidote was ready, so he stood up and walked towards them with the bottle of antidote.

When they saw No. 5 coming over with an excited look on his face, No. 1 asked:

"Is the antidote ready?"

"The antidote has been prepared. This bottle contains the antidote potion. We will start taking it when we get to the tiger's location. Each of us will take a sip."

Number One got a positive answer and nodded in satisfaction. He looked at Number Five with a friendly look, then turned to Number Two and said:

"Okay, No. 2, you lead the way. We are going to capture the tiger alive next!"

Number Two brought them to the location where the tiger appeared and hid behind the messy branches to observe secretly.

The tiger was gnawing on a wild deer. It noticed some small movements but didn't take them seriously.

Observing that the tiger was indifferent to the little noises made by them, he took out the antidote and drank a sip first, then passed it to No. 1, and waited until all five of them had drunk the antidote.

Several people began to wait for No. 5 to set off the smoke, but they saw No. 5 taking some dry grass.

Then he took some wet grass and poured the medicine on it. He took out a tinder and lit the hay. Soon smoke started to rise.

Number Five motioned for the others to pick up their clothes and fan the smoke in the direction of the tiger.

The smoke grew thicker and thicker, and slowly drifted toward the tiger. The tiger was still concentrating on eating the venison and was unaware of the smoke.

After inhaling a large amount of smoke, it began to feel dizzy and could not stand steadily. After a few minutes, it fell down.

"Alright, hurry up!"

Number One waved a hand signal, and several people quickly ran towards the tiger and tied up the tiger's limbs with ropes.

Wang Naya took out the bottle of sleeping pills and poured some into the tiger's mouth, which would ensure that it would be unconscious for several hours. There was still half a bottle left.

To these people he said:

"Brothers, I don't have much drugs left. Now that we have captured the tiger, we can discuss the white fox next time."

"The smoke is now spreading over a larger area. Let's search to see if there are other prey."

Number One and his companions knew that catching the tiger was a good harvest, but they should not be too greedy and reckless, as there were still many opportunities.

"Okay, No. 2, go find some wood, and we'll make a rack to put the tiger on and drag it back to town."

"Number three, number four, number five, the three of you go and check if there are any enchanted prey around. Meet here in half an hour."

After No. 1 had arranged everyone, he waited for the wood that No. 2 would chop. The two of them tied up the wood with ropes and tied the tiger to it.
