Yu Chengyi felt a bit disappointed, as he didn’t want Mo Hua to take risks, but it was necessary for Mo Hua to go.
“Just be very careful,” Yu Chengyi urged.
“Mhm, mhm, Uncle Yu, don’t worry, I’ll be cautious,” Mo Hua assured.
After discussing some minor details, Yu Chengyi said,
“Then I’ll head back now, and not disturb your formation painting.”
On his way out, he also bought a few pounds of beef.
Mo Hua waved goodbye to him.
With the beef in hand, Yu Chengyi left the eatery, feeling as if a weight had been lifted from his heart, refreshed and invigorated.
“Such a good kid…”
Not only smart and sensible but also understanding and immensely talented in forming techniques.
Indeed, experience trumps all, and his father’s judgment in people was really accurate.
Initially, when his father told him to take a look at Mo Hua and get familiar with him, he was somewhat reluctant, but now he almost wished he could move next door to Mo Shan’s family.
Seeing each other without lifting or lowering one’s head is what truly makes one familiar.
“I’ll have to remind Old Zhao and the others, if they come across Mo Hua in the mountain, they must look out for him, we can’t let anything happen to him!” Yu Chengyi resolved silently to himself.
After Yu Chengyi left, Mo Hua also breathed a sigh of relief.
He had been wondering how he could stock up on more monster blood to mix with the Spiritual Ink.
With just Da’hu and his two companions, they were short on manpower, and he couldn’t always be asking Uncle Yu to lend him people.
Now it was much better, all he had to do was draw formations and then use the Blood Drawing Art to extract the monster blood. The novice monster hunters could also gain experience in monster hunting while earning some spirit stones on the side.
After all, monster hunters weren’t exactly wealthy.
Thinking about it that way, he had helped Uncle Yu, and Uncle Yu had helped him, killing two birds with one stone.
Mo Hua quickly drew several Earth Fire Formations and handed them over to Yu Chengyi.
Yu Chengyi had people try to use the Earth Fire Formations to hunt monster beasts, but they failed.
The problem lay with the placement of the traps.
Other monster hunters could also set traps, but the locations weren’t good, and their techniques were rather crude, easily discovered by the monster beasts.
If the monster beasts didn’t fall for the traps, they wouldn’t be confined, and if not confined, they naturally couldn’t trigger the explosion of the Earth Fire Formation.
Yu Chengyi came to ask Mo Hua if there was any solution.
Mo Hua thought for a moment and then recommended Uncle Chu—Chu Guangshan.
Mo Hua’s own method of setting traps was learnt from Uncle Chu, naturally, he was the best person for this task.
So Chu Guangshan, who was badly injured and unable to continue monster hunting, joined the Monster Hunting Team again and ventured into Big Black Mountain.
He was in charge of tracking the monster beasts, placing traps, then setting up Mo Hua’s Earth Fire Formations before detonating them with arrows tipped with fire stones.
After the explosion of the Earth Fire Formation, he didn’t have to take action himself, as the other monster hunters would naturally finish off the monster beasts.
Even though he was badly wounded and unable to fight the monster beasts to the death, he could still help in hunting them, and in the end, he got a significant share of spirit stones.
With his share of the spirit stones, Chu Guangshan bought many things and visited with Jiang Yun to express their gratitude.
But neither of the couple was good with words.
Jiang Yun’s face was red, while Chu Guangshan was somewhat tongue-tied, not sure what to say.
Watching the husband and wife struggle to express themselves, Mo Hua was moved but also found it somewhat amusing.
He thought to himself, the old saying really was true: “You never know a person until you share a house with them.”
