The alpha wolf fell to the ground and died!

Under the moonlight, the forest and the night wind seemed to freeze for a moment.

After a while, Cheng Ling picked up the crossbow again and was about to shoot.

The rest of the pack of wolves howled mournfully, cries of ‘awoo awoo’ echoed in the air.

Amidst the chaotic howls, a wolf finally turned around and fled.

A pack of wolves that had lost their alpha wolf was like a group of scattered soldiers that had lost their general. They had lost their organization, discipline, courage, and even direction.

The remaining wolves followed closely behind and fled in all directions. Their speed was so fast that they had all fled in just a moment.

If it weren’t for the few dead wolves left on the ground, it would have been as if the attack of the wolves had never happened.

Behind them, Cheng Erni climbed down the tree.

“Brother Ling, hahaha…” She laughed with her hands on her hips.

Hahaha! Hahaha!

Cheng Erni laughed until she was out of breath. She laughed without restraint and had never laughed so freely in her life.

But she was too happy. After the extreme shock came the extreme joy. Anyone who could control such an emotion was either a saint or a villain, not Cheng Erni.

Cheng Dani, who was right behind her, wanted to cover her mouth with her hand, but Cheng Dani’s mouth was still wide open. She reached out to cover her own mouth instead of her mother’s.

“Wuwuwu …”

Cheng Dani was so happy that she cried.

Mu Sanniang was the last to come down. Her eyes were shockingly bright, and her hands and feet were a little weak, but she still walked to Cheng Ling’s side first, took her hand, and examined her limbs.

“Xiao Ling, you’re not hurt. That’s great!”

Cheng Ling was still holding the crossbow in her left hand. When Mu Sanniang held her hand to check, her limbs were a little stiff.

“I’m fine, mother,” she replied.

Mu Sanniang nodded, her eyes shining. She stared at Cheng Ling and asked, “Brother Ling, what took over you when you suddenly shot the alpha wolf to death with a branch? Where did this power come from?”

This question was interesting.

Cheng Ling blinked. The feeling of the moonlight entering her body just now was very mysterious, and she actually wanted to know what was going on.

Was it because of her pole-standing, or was there something strange about this world? Or was it because she was already abnormal?

After all, the transmigration had already happened, and she even had a small portable space. So, it didn’t seem strange for her to have another mystical gift, right?

However, Mu Sanniang’s question gave Cheng Ling some new ideas. She immediately reached into her bag and put five more arrows into the compound crossbow.

Cheng Ling had a total of 30 of these arrows. She took out 10 and put them in her bag, while the other 20 were still hidden in her space.

It was dangerous in the mountains. Although the wolves had retreated, Cheng Ling still had to keep the crossbows fully loaded at all times to be safe.

After doing this, she slightly adjusted her standing posture, slightly bent her knees, stepped on yin and yang, and divided her hands into Tai Chi.

The compound crossbow was still tightly held in her left hand, so the Tai Chi stance was not quite the standard.

However, just as Cheng Ling was visualizing Tai Chi with this imperfect Tai Chi pillar and was once again exploring the mysterious feeling in her heart, the moonlight shone brightly in the night sky.

The strange energy that was invisible to the naked eye but clearly felt by Cheng Ling once again flowed into her body like water.

From the skin to the fascias, and then to the blood and meridians.

Cheng Ling’s eyes also seemed to contain a glimmer of light. She looked at Mu Sanniang and said softly, “Mother, when we were in danger, I suddenly had a strange feeling. It was as if there was a mysterious power in my body. Mother, would you know what’s going on?”

Cheng Ling revealed this to Mu Sanniang because she was testing her.

In the days to come, she would show more and more abnormalities. There would always be many skills that the original Cheng Ling wouldn’t have. There had to be a source for all of this and a name.

She definitely couldn’t say that she had transmigrated, and she couldn’t say anything about her space either, so how was she going to find other excuses?

Cheng Ling decided to ask Mu Sanniang for help!

As her mother, she had an instinctive talent for finding excuses for her child.

“You’ve been practicing in the booklet your grandfather left behind and found the Gu, right?” Mu Sanniang asked.

Qi, same Qi.

The two words had the same pronunciation, but the concept was slightly different.

Cheng Ling understood. Mu Sanniang said ‘Qi’ instead of ‘Qi.’

She searched her memories, thinking about the Cheng family’s roots and Mu’s background.

The Cheng family was said to be an ordinary farmer’s family, but they were not all farmers. This was because Cheng Ling’s father, Cheng Ming, had studied and even passed the exam for Tong Sheng.

At that time, the Cheng family could also be said to be a family of farmers and scholars.

If it weren’t for the death of Cheng Ling’s grandfather, the severe illness of her grandmother, and the fact that her father, Cheng Ming, was killed by bandits when he was out, the Cheng family’s life in the village would have been pretty good.

As for lady Mu, her family was not poor either. She was the youngest daughter of an old man in the town.

Lady Mu had been by her father’s side since she was young and had learned some simple medical skills. Later, the old doctor passed away, and Mu became a widow at a young age. She used her own medical skills. In addition to helping the women in the village to see some minor illnesses and pain, she sometimes also helped the pregnant women deliver their babies.

With this skill, she raised three children and established herself in Meihua village.

As for the booklet Grandpa left behind, Cheng Ling had an impression of it. It was actually a book with pictures of the five animal Frolics technique, attached with the breathing techniques of Chinese medicine.

The original owner of this technique, Cheng Lingsong, had practiced it in a relaxed manner before. It was supposed to strengthen her body, but she had never achieved any results.

Now that Mu Sanniang had attributed Cheng Ling’s change to this, Cheng Ling immediately said, “Mother, is this the Leviathan?”

As she spoke, she raised her hand and consciously tried to mobilize the ‘moonlight essence’ that had just entered her body, trying to see if she could release it.

But to no avail, Cheng Ling moved her hands and said awkwardly, “Mother, I can feel the presence of this Gu, but it seems to be very difficult to control it.”

In a moment of desperation, Cheng Ling had thrown out a branch with a Gu attached to it, but it turned out that wasn’t normal.

Cheng Ling pondered, “It seems that she needs to strengthen her training and strive to be able to control this kind of energy as soon as possible. Otherwise, having this kind of energy but not being able to use it would really be a waste of God’s gift.”

Perhaps, she could pick up the breathing technique that Grandpa Mu had left behind and practice it properly.

“Xiao Ling, it’s amazing that you can feel Yi’s presence.” Mu Sanniang exclaimed as she was overjoyed. “People like you are talented! You have to practice hard. This is the ability to settle down!”

Cheng Ling nodded solemnly.

The two of them didn’t delay their conversation. Cheng Ling said, “Mother, let’s get rid of these wolf corpses.”

At the same time, she called out to Cheng Dani and Cheng Erni. Cheng Ling walked to the nearest wolf corpse. She wanted to pull out all the arrows from the wolf’s corpse and recycle them.

Afraid of blood splattering out, Cheng Ling walked behind the dead wolf and pressed on the back of its neck.

At this moment, a new change occurred.

Cheng Ling felt her uncontrollable Qi suddenly start to move on its own.

Chi, it surged into the wolf’s corpse.

Cheng Ling’s heart skipped a beat. Just as she was about to withdraw her hand subconsciously, she suddenly heard a “ding” sound, like money falling into a bag.

What was that?
