The second task is to hunt and cook 100 Sanhua chickens within a month. It is definitely impossible to go back and forth between an abandoned factory and home like this time.

I can only stay there permanently and go to the wilderness to survive.

So Chen Qing was ready to confess part of the truth to her parents in order to get a chance to go out for a month and complete the task.

After all, I am not a "certain orphan". If I just disappeared without saying hello, my parents would have to call the police.

As he was cleaning the pots and pans for making chicken soup, he had already thought of an acceptable argument.

At 5:30, after Chen's father and mother came home from get off work, Chen Qing said directly: "Mom, Dad, I have something to discuss with you."

"Huh? Xiaoqing, you came back so early today? What's the matter?" Father Chen changed his shoes and walked to the living room, followed by Mother Chen.

Chen Qing: "That's it - I recently met an old retired professor from a martial arts university. He is very good at teaching students. I plan to practice with him for a month, and maybe I will have the opportunity to take the martial arts exam..."

When Father Chen heard this, he frowned on the spot and interrupted Chen Qing: "You are young and have insufficient experience. You must have been deceived! It has long been established that you have no martial arts talent. How is it possible...

"

"Dad! It's true. If you don't believe it, look at it - I have already started martial arts."

As he spoke, Chen Qing put a watch-like device on his wrist - this is a portable testing instrument, generally used to help beginners determine whether they have developed the power of Qi and blood and entered martial arts.

When he stood up and performed a basic pile method with this instrument, a green light lit up on the instrument.

This means that there are fluctuations in Qi and blood in the wearer!

"This, this..." Father Chen and Mother Chen looked in disbelief. Their son, who had always been considered to have no talent, actually started the path of martial arts.

"Old, Old Chen... could it be that the tester has been left out for too long? You, go to the drugstore downstairs and buy another one!" Mother Chen's words were trembling, and she pushed her husband.

"Okay, okay, I'll go right away." Father Chen didn't dare to neglect and hurriedly went out to buy new ones. He was so nervous that he didn't even change his slippers.

Ten minutes later, Chen's father ran back panting and handed the newly purchased detector to Chen Qing.

Chen Qing took it with a look of helplessness, put the new one on his wrist, and stood on another pile.

The green light lit up again, finally irrefutable.

"Son, my son has really met a famous teacher!" Father Chen and Mother Chen looked at each other excitedly, with tears even beginning to shine in their eyes.

Because in this world, the life experiences of warriors and ordinary people are really very different.

Even for the lowest-level warriors on urban and rural public transportation, who just make a living, their salary is much higher than that of ordinary people. How can a parent who hopes to become a dragon doesn't want their children to become warriors?

"Xiao Qing, we have to thank the old professor for this!" Father Chen calmed down a little.

"In this way, your father has agreed to your cultivation. Tomorrow, my father will go with you, bring gifts, and contribute some tuition fees. Our family must express its gratitude."

How can this work? Why don't you go with me to the abandoned factory to give gifts to Sanhua chickens? Chen Qing was speechless.

He quickly thought of an excuse: "Farewell, Dad. Teacher, he has a weird temper and doesn't like vulgar etiquette. If you do this, what if he gets angry and doesn't teach me?"

"Yes, yes, you are reckless. Then dad will give you some money. You can buy whatever the old man likes to eat and use, and be smart!" Father Chen said.

"Okay, I understand." Chen Qing nodded in agreement, "By the way, help me ask for leave from the class teacher, and ask him to pay the martial arts exam registration fee."

"You are sure to take part in the martial arts exam this year?!" Father Chen was surprised, but he didn't ask any more questions, "Just leave these to dad, you can practice in peace."

In this way, the parents finally got it done. Early the next morning, Chen Qing set out with her luggage.

…………

Hunting magical beasts like Sanhua Chicken is really lackluster. In the blink of an eye, more than half a month has passed, and Chen Qing has hunted and eaten more than 60 Sanhua Chickens, and his energy and blood fluctuations have almost reached around 380 points.

During the past twenty days, he hunted Sanhua chickens in the nearby wilderness during the day; at night, he slept in the communication room at the factory site, relying on several dismantled animal repelling sound generators to ensure safety.

From the beginning, he needed to lure chickens into the factory and rely on the animal repellent sounder to kill them. Later, he could kill them directly, and then he could drive the chickens away. Chen Qing felt his progress every step of the way.

As the power of Qi and blood in his body increases, he is no longer as thin as before. Now he has a good figure, with beautiful and powerful muscles.

The hair is longer, and there is no place to shave it, so it has to be tied into a short braid; the cheeks are not as delicate as before, but have more edges and corners, and are much tougher.

Although Chen Qing almost vomited after eating chicken three meals a day, he liked this kind of life with changes and progress, which made him feel truly alive.

It was sunny and windy today, and the weather was good. As always, Chen Qing came to the small pond and waited for the chickens to come over.

Suddenly, a chill ran down his spine, like a ray of light on his back.

Something was staring at him! Chen Qing felt wary in his heart.

He turned around suddenly, and there was nothing in his sight except long weeds, monotonous wild flowers, and dry yellow soil.

But Chen Qing knew that in the wilderness scenes in front of him, there were predators ready to attack.

It was probably because of his advance warning that the other party lost the opportunity and did not dare to launch a direct attack. The two sides faced each other openly and covertly.

After a long time, the predator's patience finally ran out. There was movement in the grass. Weeds half as tall as a man pressed down on both sides, and a monster came out of it.

Chen Qing gradually saw its appearance clearly. It was a tree wolf - a carnivorous zero-level monster.

This wolf-like monster has the same body shape as an adult man, has no skin, and is covered in hard armor like a dead branch, which is both a form of mimicry and a kind of protection.

[Reminder: Side mission has been triggered]

When this tree wolf appeared in front of Chen Qing, a systematic mechanical sound came from his mind.

Probably knowing that it was inconvenient for him to view the task panel now, the system reported the task content for him:

[Side mission 1: Life is always full of surprises, and so is cultivation. Face the challenge, young man]

[Task content: Defeat and kill the encountered tree wolf]

[Task reward: Extraordinary understanding experience card*1]

Experience card! Hearing this, Chen Qing's heart moved, and she thought to herself that the system indeed has various experience cards, which should be obtained through side tasks. I wonder if there is still a chance to get the [Future Experience Card].

After a moment's thought, he turned his attention back to the current enemy.

"Hooooo..."

The tree wolf pawed one of its front paws on the ground twice, opened its mouth to reveal its black and yellow teeth, and thick, bacteria-filled saliva flowed from its gums.
Chapter completed!
