I began to understand the myriad things by chopping wood

Hey!
Looking at the huge monster charging towards him, Xie Yuan felt the hairs on his body stand up.

Why can such a big guy run so fast!
This open space shaded by the tree canopy was large enough that Xie Yuan was about 20 to 30 meters away from the edge of the forest. It was definitely too late for him to run into the forest.

Moreover, racing with a black bear in the woods is obviously not a wise decision.

Watching the black bear approaching quickly, saliva was already flowing out of the corners of its bloody mouth. Xie Yuan tightened his grip on the axe and gritted his teeth.

Then he turned around and ran backwards, towards the trunk of the big tree that was so thick that it took several people to hug it.

The momentum of the black bear running over was almost equal to the momentum of a galloping carriage. Xie Yuan was not a fool and had no desire to fight it head-on.

It couldn't escape, so it ran to the big tree not far behind and followed it around the pillar.

Black bears run very fast, but their flexibility is a little lacking, so they have to maneuver around first and then wait for their opportunity to strike.

Xie Yuan held the axe in his hand, rushed to the tree trunk in a few steps, and then stepped back.

In just a few steps, the black bear had already rushed very close. At the moment when Xie Yuan dodged, the huge bear claws reached out and touched his clothes just one foot away.

With a bang, the bear's claws hit the tree. The tree, whose crown diameter was nearly a hundred meters, trembled all over, and many green leaves fell, forming a leaf rain on the forest floor.

The black bear howled, took the opportunity to slow down, and leaned back behind the tree.

At this moment, an axe came from behind.

【Chop】!
Seeing that the black bear was indeed blocked by the tree, Xie Yuan slowed down and waited for this opportunity behind the tree.

But he didn't dare get too close. He held the end of the tiger bone axe handle, leaned forward and chopped it, but he didn't hit the vital part, only cutting into the black bear's shoulder.

Black bears have thick skin and flesh, so this blow is not fatal, but the position of the shoulder affects its turning flexibility.

Xie Yuan struck and ran away, pulled out the axe, splashing a cloud of blood, and ran back again.

"Roar!"

The black bear roared in pain, took a step back, then looked at Xie Yuan's back with red eyes and rushed forward again.

"Why is this blind bear running faster? Damn!"

Xie Yuan cursed inwardly.

This did not seem to seriously injure the black bear, but instead aroused its bloodiness, making it run very fast.

Fortunately, Xie Yuan chose a suitable battlefield. The black bear could not make full use of its huge strength, well-developed muscles, and extremely fast speed in a straight line. It could only follow Xie Yuan and turn around the big tree, and could not catch up with him for a while.

But the black bear couldn't catch up with Xie Yuan, and Xie Yuan couldn't get rid of the ferocious beast. He didn't even dare to slow down - if he slowed down by one or two steps, the black bear's huge claws would be able to grab him directly.

Seeing that the black bear was provoked and was chasing him tirelessly with red eyes, Xie Yuan's eyes were fierce.

He held his breath and accelerated, rushing forward, turning around to go behind the tree, then turning around and swung the axe again!

After the blind bear rushed out of the tree, he was unexpectedly hit by another axe. He could only roar and lower his head.

With a dull thud, Xie Yuan's axe hit the black bear's left front shoulder again.

Although the cut did not hit the same position, but it injured the same side and could affect its movement!

Xie Yuan still drew his axe and walked away, with only a streak of blood dripping from the axe.

The black bear was completely enraged by the continuous attacks. It roared and rushed forward, but its movements were indeed much slower.

Blood was dripping from his left shoulder. He tried to support himself and turn right, following Xie Yuan in circles, but he was three points slower in turning.

call……

After running another lap, Xie Yuan was panting. Seeing that the black bear did not follow the turn, he turned around with the axe in both hands and repeated the same trick, and another axe fell down!

As soon as the black bear showed its head, it was hit by the axe again. This time the axe hit its back, cutting through the thick skin and fat, causing it to roar!
Xie Yuan turned around and ran away, thinking to himself:
"After all, it's just a beast, without a brain! Huh...

"I'm so tired, but I can still run for a while. Luckily, I've made a breakthrough recently and I still have internal strength. My physical strength is much better than before, otherwise I'm afraid I won't be able to get around this bear!"

The fight with the beast didn't last long, but Xie Yuan's heartbeat was as fast as a drum and never stopped. At this time, his physical strength was extremely depleted.

Fortunately, the bear was already injured, and victory would be in sight with a few more hits.

The benefits of practicing martial arts are evident, and it’s not just about improving physical strength.

Those basic standing exercises covered the basic footwork and boxing techniques. For example, the straight punches and thrusts used in previous sparring sessions required a lot of attention to force. The martial arts in this life were all practical skills, not just fancy routines.

Xie Yuan practiced diligently day and night, so he didn't feel much at ordinary times, but now his steps were much more flexible. He ran around the tree for such a long time without being tripped by the roots, and his speed was not slow.

If he had not practiced martial arts, or had not made a breakthrough recently, he would probably have died under the bear's paw today, no matter how powerful his axe was.

"Give it to you again!"

Seeing that the black bear had been thrown to the other side again, Xie Yuan turned around, took a breath, and suddenly chopped down with an axe!
However, this time it was a little different. The black bear poked its head out, its eyes flashing red, and it actually slapped out its huge right paw first!

With a bang, the bear's paw hit the axe.

Xie Yuan only felt an enormous force coming at him, the axe flew out horizontally, and he staggered.

He was stunned for a moment.

This blind bear has actually learned something clever?

Is this a fucking black bear demon?
No matter how dumb the beast is, it is not a computer boss after all, and it will not be stuck to death by a bug.

The black bear also panted heavily, and suddenly stood up, blowing out a disgusting, fishy wind from its bloody mouth!

Xie Yuan rolled sideways to avoid the black bear's slap, then crawled toward the tree and finally stood up.

As he turned the corner, he saw the black bear limping and falling behind. His heart almost jumped out of his throat:

"Fortunately, I chopped off its shoulder and weakened its mobility. Otherwise, it would be doomed!"

Xie Yuan didn't dare to stop and ran around the tree. He saw the axe in the empty space in the forest, but he didn't dare to go out to pick it up.

"This is not a solution. I don't know if I can beat it if I use up my energy... This bear is really sick. If it were any other beast, wouldn't it have run away long ago? Why is it so persistent just because of a broken fruit?"

Although it was a broken fruit, Xie Yuan had no intention of throwing it away. That was the last resort.

If it really doesn't work, he can either throw the fruit away or eat it, but he feels that he can still save it now.

"After we get the bear to the other side, I'll rush out and pick up the axe. Two more axes and it should be gone."

Xie Yuan pondered over it and continued to run around the tree, listening to the movement with his ears perked up.

Weird... why does it seem like there is no sound of it running?
Only then did Xie Yuan realize that he hadn't seen the blind bear for a while.

With a snap, the sound of branches breaking came from above my head.

Xie Yuan looked up suddenly.

On the first branch of the big tree, the black bear grabbed the trunk with its four claws, staring at Xie Yuan with its pair of scarlet eyes.

Then, it pushed out with its four claws and pounced down from the tree with the momentum of a mountain falling down.

Hey!
Xie Yuan had never expected that the black bear would actually climb up a tree, and he was a beat slow to react.

He exerted all his strength, lunged forward, and narrowly avoided the pressure from the black bear sitting on the ground.

The earth seemed to tremble, and the black bear fell dizzy, but it shook its head and stood up because of its thick skin.

At this time, a bear and a man were in an open space, only a few feet apart.

The black bear roared wildly and slapped out with its claws; Xie Yuan was about to get up, but seeing this, he could only push forward with all his strength, and then let out a muffled groan.

His legs were scratched by claws.

Xie Yuan felt a burning pain on his legs, and blood was already flowing out; if it weren't for the iron vest with a layer of tree bark, his skin would have been torn apart!

But he had no time to check, he just stared straight ahead and suddenly pounced forward again on the ground!
The axe is right in front of you!

caught!
Xie Yuan grabbed the axe in his hand, turned around and saw that the black bear had pounced on him!

He gathered all his strength and rolled continuously, avoiding the attack at the critical moment.

Unable to think of anything else, Xie Yuan gritted his teeth and supported himself on the ground, standing up as quickly as possible, holding the axe in both hands, looking down at the panting black bear.

【Three axes】!
A cold light flashed through the forest, drawing a broken line.

The black bear's roar shook the forest and then immediately faded away.

Its head and left shoulder had almost been cut off, leaving only a layer of flesh connecting it to the body.

Seeing that the black bear was completely motionless, Xie Yuan felt relieved. Suddenly, he could not hold on any longer and sat down on the ground.

With his hands on the ground, Xie Yuan looked at the blood slowly seeping out from under the big black bear, and suddenly laughed heartily.

He defeated a bear by himself!

I touched the fruit on my chest, fortunately, it was not crushed;

Looking at the big black bear in front of him, Xie Yuan's mouth widened:

"Buy one, get one free! I didn't expect to get an unexpected surprise today!"
