Chapter 14: Have a drink in the evening

Every day after dinner, the caravan is at its busiest time of the day. Except for the guards who stood guard on the roof of the car, everyone had a day of entertainment.

The most common pastime in caravans is fighting.

Aubrey stood sweaty in the middle of the clearing, his rock-like muscles reflecting a bronze glow in the glow of the campfire.

Under the temptation of doubling his salary this month, two of them have come up to challenge him, and the coachman has been thrown aside by him.

Then George jumped into the circle of the game.

"Boss, the old rule, if you win me, I don't want this month's salary. George defiantly said to Aubrey.

Seeing that George began to challenge his boss again, the onlookers let out a burst of heckling.

George took off his shirt and tossed it aside, revealing the muscles of his upper body carved out of white granite.

On his body, there was a huge scar that stretched from his left shoulder to his right rib, which looked particularly hideous in the light of the fire.

George was a head taller than Aubrey, but his muscles weren't as muscular as Aubrey's.

Aubrey didn't speak, but put on a stance. His right leg is slightly bent in front and his left leg is straightened in the back, and his hands are raised and stretched forward, reaching the height between his face and chest.

George also stood with his legs spread back and forth, and his hands were indeed at waist height, his right hand leaning forward slightly, and his left hand resting on the side of his thigh.

Both of them put on a wrestling stance, Aubrey put on an offensive stance, and George put on a defensive-focused stance.

In the crowd of onlookers, Elizabeth was teaching live, and she told Charles: "There are eight essential things to know about wrestling: strength, speed, how to catch the opponent, articulation, tangling, crunching, and the knowledge of knocking the enemy to the ground and breaking the enemy. ”

"Wrestling has three important abilities: the 'strength' to contend with the opponent and maintain one's own balance, the 'distance' to be able to move one's hands and feet to the correct position in any situation, and the 'agility' to perform moves correctly, quickly and strongly. ”

"If your own strength is higher than that of the opponent, you should take the initiative to attack and overwhelm the opponent with 'strength'. If the two sides are evenly matched, keep a 'distance' from the other side and wait for an opportunity to counterattack. If you are at a disadvantage, you wait for the opponent to take the initiative to attack, and you use your speed and skill, that is, 'agility' to counterattack. ”

Charles quickly absorbed and digested this knowledge in his mind, and then turned it into his own understanding - if you are poor, your tactics will blossom, and if you are up, you will blow up Lao Tzu.

At this point, George and Aubrey ended their tentative relationship, and the battle began.

Neither of them used the power of magic, relying on the strength and technique of their own bodies.

Aubrey attacked first, lunging at George, slamming his shoulders into George's chest and abdomen while holding his opponent's thighs with both hands, ready to use the force of the impact to flip his opponent over.

George bent down at the moment of impact, hugged Aubrey's waist with both hands, and then pressed down on Aubrey's quilt with the weight of his whole person, and at the same time stretched his feet back in order to break free from Aubrey's control.

Aubrey slid half a step forward on his front foot, stabilizing his slightly unstable figure under George's pressure. Then he changed the hand holding George's legs to an upward lift, and pressed his shoulders against George's abdomen, while his back and front legs forcibly leaned back, trying to lift George's whole body behind him, turning him into an upside-down state.

George, who understood Aubrey's intentions, let go of the hands holding Aubrey's waist, and then pushed Aubrey's waist, and with the help of Aubrey's backward power, he disengaged with a backflip, showing the elf's anti-heaven agility vividly and exquisitely.

Before George could gain a firm footing, Aubrey had already turned and grabbed George's back with his hands under his armpits, ready to use his weight to fall backwards.

George immediately extended his left leg back and inserted it behind Aubrey's right leg. He then turned his body to the left while stepping back with his left leg, pressing Aubrey's body with his left shoulder, trying to flip Aubrey over his left leg and knock him back.

Aubrey, who was about to fall backwards, firmly wrapped his right hand around George's waist, and his left hand smashed into George's right knee socket with the momentum of falling backwards. Then, while George's right leg was bent and unstable, he regained his feet and pulled George to the ground with the force of his backwards.

After taking George down, Aubrey tried to ride on top of George's left to attack, only to be grabbed by George with his right hand and grabbed his left leg from the inside through his legs.

George's body flipped to the right as he exerted his hands, pinning Aubrey under his body.

Amid the cheers of the crowd of onlookers, Aubrey played GG under George.

The fight show is over, and it's time for everyone in the camp to have a bad drink.

In the absence of a reliable water source in the vicinity, bad liquor that can be stored for a long time is the source of drinking water for everyone. The carts carrying grain were loaded with enough bad wine for a minimum of three days for everyone to drink, just in case. At Corn City, the bad liquor on the grain trucks was replaced with the new ones, and the old liquor was put on the luggage carts and empty buses for everyone to drink.

But Charles didn't drink anything, and he started his nightly bedtime training.

After a ten-minute jog around the camp to warm up, he began to practice footwork under the tutelage of Elizabeth.

Footwork is the foundation of all martial arts, and in the future, whether it is striking people with a wand or casting spells with a sword, footwork will need to be coordinated.

After all these days of practice, Charles himself was able to walk out of the usual footwork such as stabbing steps, sending steps, leaning steps, diagonal steps, and turning around.

"Can I compare you to summer?"

"Although you are cuter and gentler than summer"

Cromwell's singing came from the camp to the sound of a six-stringed lyre, and he was singing a summer love song. Many people in the caravan worked hard to learn, and when they had the opportunity, they used it on their lovers or lovers.

Charles practiced hard around the campfire outside the camp, sweat dripping down the grass.

Elizabeth sat on top of the carriage with her glass, and flicked a pebble whenever Charles's posture was wrong.

Halkala sat next to Elizabeth and poured himself "tons and tons" of wine.

"Are you being too him, he's only eight years old, he's still a child. Halkala whispered to Elizabeth.

Elizabeth shook her head lightly and replied in a low voice, "It's not that I'm him, it's that he's himself." ”

"Well......" Halkala sighed, "I found out when I started teaching him Elven in the maple grove, and he gave me the impression that there was a wild beast chasing after him, and he kept learning desperately. It was better when he met Momiji, but he changed back to that when he left them, and even worsened. ”

"That's what motivates you from the pressure of survival. Elizabeth said, "The children of the poor are in charge of the house early, and the children of the miserable are ripe early." How many of the elven children are as hard working as he is?"

"That's what you care about, I'm just a little guy running around to make money. Halkala's face was full of drunken red clouds, "By the way, I've done what you want." ”

With that, she took out a bottle and handed it to Elizabeth.

Elizabeth was about to take the bottle when Halkara retracted her hand and asked, "Are you sure you want to do this?"

"Why can't you do that?" asked Elizabeth.

"He's a kid!" said Halkala, "I can't watch you do something about being taken away by the gendarmerie." ”

"What are you thinking!" Elizabeth glared at Halkara angrily, "he's just a kid. ”

After Elizabeth finished speaking, she snatched the medicine bottle from Halkala's hand.

Having drunk too much, Halkala left, and after a short time Cromwell came.

"I heard from the dwarves that there was news of the Flame Excalibur used by a brave man more than three hundred years ago. Cromwell said, "The jewel on the scabbard that was stored in the Temple of Flames shone again. ”

Elizabeth nodded, "You have to be careful. ”

"Alan Bischberg completed the trial of the Flame Temple and took the scabbard. Cromwell continued to break the news.

"The sanctions against the kingdom of Bischberg are about to begin. Elizabeth said.

Charles, who was practicing, didn't know that his enemy had already entered the main quest.

When he finished his daily training session, he returned to his small tent, cooled the boiling water and wiped his sweaty and dusty body.

When living in the wild, if you don't want to be suffocated by a slime while you fall asleep, it's best to live in a tent.

In the tent, don't light candles or oil lamps if you don't want to accidentally turn into a barbecue, and now there is a cheap crystal lamp on the top of the tent that provides magic with a cheap magic core.

When he wiped his knee, Qing Shui touched the wound left by the fall yesterday, and he grinned in pain.

As soon as he put his pants on, the curtain of the tent was lifted.

Charles covered his upper body with a garment in one hand, and a dagger came from the storage ring to his other hand.

Charles's tent was bought when he was in Corn City, and it was not very high, and the tall Elizabeth had to bend down when she walked in.

She got into the tent and sat down next to Charles, pointed at Charles, and said, "Let me see your wounds." ”
