Chapter 3: Kind Dwarfs
In the dark forest, an ox cart carrying people and goods slowly drove in the opposite direction of the convoy.
This small ox cart is very simple, that is, an old ox pulls a cart, there is not even a roof, and it is ventilated on all sides.
In addition to Jiang Yan and the little guy in her arms, there were two dwarfs and a young man on the ox cart, and a lot of daily necessities were placed on both sides.
"Let's have a bit. Wallis pulled out a swarthy bottle from under his seat, unscrewed it and placed it in front of Jiang Yan.
There was a thick black thing inside, Jiang Yan swallowed her saliva, this color, it doesn't look very safe.
"Thank you. Jiang Yan took it and grabbed it in her hand, but she didn't dare to try it easily.
Wallis seemed to see her embarrassment, and coughed slightly, "This is a porridge made of green bone badgers and wheat, rye, and leaf grass, although it is not very good-looking, but it has a strong sense of satiety." ”
The younger dwarf nodded in agreement, and the older dwarf snorted coldly, didn't say much, and just continued to drive forward.
"Even if you don't eat it, the little one in your arms should eat some. Wallis glanced at the little guy in Jiang Yan's arms who had never made a sound all the way.
If it weren't for the body temperature, he would have thought that the little guy had actually fallen into a long sleep that he couldn't wake up to.
Indeed, Jiang Yan licked her lips, which were dry due to lack of water.
The three of them didn't look like the kind of people who were extremely vicious, so take a gamble, she clenched the bottle tightly and tasted it tentatively.
The entrance was a very strange feeling, sticky with a little spicy taste straight to the nasal cavity, she covered her mouth for a while before swallowing, and then she felt warm in her stomach, and a hot current emerged, which couldn't help but make Jiang Yan's stiff body recover some strength.
"It has a magical effect of restoring physical strength!" Jiang Yan was a little surprised. "You're a magician?"
Wallis scratched his head embarrassedly, "Even if I just touched the magic door, I'm just an apprentice. ”
As soon as he said the magic apprentice Jiang Yan, he understood.
Here, when children are generally four to six years old, they will take a test to see if they are suitable for learning magic, and there are very few people who show talent at Wallis's age, and it should be ordinary people who don't have much magical talent, but have been groping in the field of magic for a long time.
Jiang Yan drank two sips by herself and fed some to the little guy in her arms, until the little guy's state slowly changed from weak and hungry to half-full and sleepy.
After eating and drinking, Jiang Yan was a little drowsy, but in this case, she didn't dare to close her eyes at all, so she talked to Wallis without a match.
The diesel lamp hanging on the small pillar in front of the ox cart emitted a faint warm yellow light, maybe a bug accidentally flew in, Jiang Yan heard a crackling sound from inside, and the sound of the ox cart rolling was intertwined, which was unexpectedly wonderful.
"The city of Alicante, although it is said to be at the foot of the Kee Forest, is remote, sparsely populated and inaccessible. ”
When you say this, it feels like Alicante City has no merit, Jiang Yan patted the little guy in her arms.
"But Alicante used to be the biggest trading capital, far from the imperial capital, the mountains and rivers are beautiful, the people are rustic, you will love Alicante City. Wallis said.
Jiang Yan also nodded cooperatively, she had the heart to talk to the two dwarfs, the younger Hayden had just opened his mouth and said nothing to Jiang Yan, and the slightly older dwarf Bert who was driving glanced at them with slanted eyes, coughed, Hayden immediately shrank his neck, and did not dare to make a sound for a while.
Jiang Yan knew that Bert didn't want Hayden to have too much to do with him.
She didn't talk to Hayden anymore, and Hayden glared at Bert angrily, ran to him, and the two of them muttered head to head.
Tonight's wind was a little cool, Jiang Yan saw Wallis leaning on the side and fell asleep, and did not speak again, but wrapped herself tightly in this tattered thing that could not even be called clothes.
She leaned slightly to the side, facing the windward place with her back, blocking the cool breeze for the little one in her arms.
Anyway, it's cold and panicked on this day, and it's better for one person to be cold than two people to be cold.
The old dwarf Bert glanced back when he heard the sound, and coughed again, which made Hayden, who was in a daze, react, and Bert gave him a look, Hayden blinked, and pointed to the package in the corner in disbelief.
"Go!" said the old dwarf Bert.
This was the first thing he said tonight, his voice was very deep and hoarse, as if he was talking at the top of his throat, which made Jiang Yan look sideways in surprise.
Just as he was thinking, a strange smell of damp and musty smell suddenly came, and Hayden dragged a gray-white rabbit skin cloak and handed it to Jiang Yan.
"Give, give it to me?" Jiang Yan was a little surprised.
She also thought that the two dwarfs didn't like her, after all, Bert either sneered or snorted tonight.
Hayden nodded, and whispered, "It's cold at night, you put it on, don't break it, this is the snow rabbit skin we hunted last winter, and it can be sold for a good price in the city." ”
Jiang Yan said dumbly, the size of the cloak in front of her is indeed not the size of a dwarf, although the taste is unpleasant, but something is better than nothing, Jiang Yan is not hypocritical, put the cloak on her body, and said to Hayden, "Thank you, and thank you for me, thank you." ”
Hayden grinned, a shy look.
The snow rabbit skin is indeed warm, as soon as she puts it on, Jiang Yan felt that her arms and legs that were frozen and stiff gradually eased, and she watched the ox cart slowly drive towards the pitch black, and she couldn't see any bright future, and her heart suddenly sank.
"I don't know if I came to this world after reality died. Jiang Yan was in a daze, and suddenly popped out again, "Fortunately, I don't have a cat." ”
Jiang Yan lives alone, she originally planned to raise a cat after completing this planning case, and the cat climbing frame is on the road, but she didn't expect that the person was gone.
It's a sad story.
Her mind was messed up, and she thought of a bunch of inexplicable things, including her treasured idol records and the newly bought Lv bags, and the more she thought about it, the more heartbroken she became.
After thinking for a while, she slowly bundled these sad emotions together, kicked them to the innermost part of her brain, and when Jiang Yan opened her eyes again, she was the calm and decisive Jiang Yan again.
Jiang Yan, who calmed down, began to recall all the things that happened to her today, which is a habit she developed in the workplace.
After completing each day's work, we will review today's work.
"That lewd man was a good breakthrough, yes, but at the time he was a little too reckless, and was almost discovered by another person, but fortunately he is an ordinary person, if he is a magician, I am afraid that I will soon find out what I have done. Jiang Yan frowned.
This is no more careful than the real world, everything has to be more careful, if Jiang Yan showed a little more at that time, then it is estimated that he would not be sitting in this ox cart at this time and wandering through the woods.
There is also the character panel, Jiang Yan looked at the sky resentfully, and thought that she would give herself a powerful auxiliary function, but she didn't expect it to be a chicken rib thing, and only by touching the eyebrows of the character can you get character information.
Does she have to say a word to everyone she meets, hello, can I touch your eyebrows??
"It's useless. Jiang Yan nodded her eyebrows, and with the appearance of the character panel, her eyes were suddenly attracted by four words!
