Bab 55: Chapter 54: Lubricating Mucus

"First, I'll teach you how to differentiate the traces of monsters."

"Before I teach you, you need to realize that when you prepare to track a monster, the first thing to understand is that they do not distribute evenly across the wilderness; they tend to move between places where they can obtain food, water sources, and their lairs. Water, light, and food are the three essentials no creature can do without."

Zhao Liang was very thorough in his teaching.

"Once we've determined the general area, we then use distinguishing marks like footprints, dung, traces of nibbled grass and leaves, and bits of fur and scales left in their resting and sleeping areas."
