Chapter 50: The First Contact of Mercenary Life

Although the tasks accepted by Zhang Yang and the others this time are close to each other, they still need to be delayed for at least 2 days to go back and forth. Therefore, food and other things also need to be prepared, otherwise if you really sleep in the wild, there will be no place to cry? Only then did Nirjielina realize what she had missed before. And Zhang Yang also bought a light skin breastplate for Nierjielina in the armor shop. It was only then that the two of them departed for Ballus, about half a day's journey to a shallow oasis on the southern shore of Doyason, where they would face a large horde of Grayling......

People living near the city don't know the hard work of being an ordinary mercenary at the bottom, and most people only know the glorious side of mercenaries.

Most ordinary mercenaries don't have the money to buy a wildebeest to get around. What's more, because you can also choose to hire a horse-drawn carriage for long-distance travel, mercenaries will generally walk to and from short-distance missions. It is precisely because of this that Zhang Yang was also misled by the receptionist of the mercenary union on this issue. So much so that when the two walked halfway through, Zhang Yang came back to his senses. But at this time, he had to sigh helplessly, and now the two of them could only continue to walk forward stupidly. Actually, it's not that it's so tiring, walking is also a way of cultivation. It's just that Zhang Yang feels that this is too inefficient.

Although this kind of rush was no pressure for Zhang Yang, Nierjielina began to struggle a little. Because her physical strength and physical fitness were weak, she had to carry simple luggage and weapons on her back at this time. Along the way, she was sweating and panting! So when the two of them had traveled for an afternoon, they reached the north bank of the Doyasun River just as it was getting dark. Nierjielina finally breathed a sigh of relief, but Zhang Yang did not let her sit down and rest, but took her to choose a location, set up a camp, and set up a trap. All of this is something to learn for Niljielina, and even to keep her in shape, Zhang Yang won't let her rest immediately. Otherwise, she will not be able to stand up the next day.

When doing these things, Zhang Yang said to her the most

"Think about it, keen."

It wasn't until about 30 minutes later, when it was completely dark, that the two of them lit the campfire and prepared to eat. It was only at this time that Nirjielina was able to sit down and get some rest.

"Tired?"

Zhang Yang's sentence at this moment is actually a little knowingly asked.

"Hmm. It felt like I'd never walked so much on my own. “

Nilgerina replied softly.

"It's hard at first, but slowly, it'll be fine."

Around the raging campfire, Zhang Yang looked at Nierjielina under the light of the fire, and suddenly felt a little unbearable in his heart, but then he extinguished this thought. The road still needs to be walked step by step. And she has already chosen this direction...... Now that she suffers more, she will have one more chance to live in the future.

While thinking a little nonsense, Zhang Yang began to heat up the food. The food was dried meat and coarse bread that had been processed before, and to be honest, Nilgelina really didn't have the appetite to bite into this dry and hard stuff at this time.

Although Zhang Yang is very strict in some aspects, he is more careful about some small things in life. At this time, seeing that Niljielina had no appetite, he magically found a small pot the size of two palms from his luggage, and then built a pot rack on the campfire with a twig in three times and five by two, and then filled it with fresh water that he carried with him. After doing this, I saw Zhang Yang turn his head and enter the woods, and after a while, he picked some mushrooms and wild vegetables. After rinsing the sheet, it is simmered in a pot with chopped dried meat. He even took out several spices from the space bag on his body! It looked like Nirjielina was dumbfounded!

After a while, the fresh aroma of mushroom broth wafted out, and Niljielina suddenly felt so hungry......

Holding the wooden bowl that Zhang Yang casually saw, he drank the broth and served it with the coarse bread that had been soaked in the broth. Niergerina even felt that she had never eaten such delicious food! I saw that I had eaten two large bowls in a row!

Zhang Yang looked at the innocent side of Nierjielina when she ate this broth, and she was suddenly in a good mood, so she smiled slightly and asked her, "Is it delicious?"

"Hmm!!"

At this time, Nirjielina, who completely ignored the image of a lady, had a mouth full of food, so she had to hum heavily to say that it was too delicious.

"Remember, no matter what, when, try to make yourself, alive, better."

In fact, there is another sentence that Zhang Yang did not say, that is: living is a kind of happiness.

After the meal, Nierjielina wanted to keep vigil first, but Zhang Yang sent her to sleep directly. He just slept enough yesterday and felt that it should not be a problem for him to stay up for 2 days. What's more, he still has to cultivate his fighting spirit in this matter. It's just that at this time, he can't go into the water, and he still has a little attention to keep vigil.

In just a few minutes, there was a soft purring from Nilgerina's side, like a sleeping meow. Zhang Yang calmed down a little, and then used his spiritual power to urge the core of the fighting qi to start rotating and absorbing the free energy between heaven and earth. After a while, Zhang Yang felt that many particles were attracted to him, entering his body through the pores and slowly clinging to the core of the Dou Qi that couldn't stop spinning. However, after quietly observing the leak, Zhang Yang was surprised to find that the particles attached to the core of the Dou Qi seemed to be saturated, and they could no longer cling to it, so they could only slowly disperse. Could it be that the last time I absorbed too much in the water, I didn't "digest" it? In fact, in the past few days, he has been carefully experiencing the changes in the core of this fighting spirit. He gradually found that as he exercised, the speed of absorbing these particles attached to the core of the Dou Qi would increase, and with it, his body seemed to be changing imperceptibly. So, wouldn't it be better to get some weight-bearing sandbags or something? You'll have to give it a try when you go back. It's just that looking at it this way, a saturation cultivation under water is enough for about 5 days of self-digestion at the current level, and if it is on land, it is estimated that it will have to be at least once every 2 days. I don't know how other people cultivate? What about speed?

Zhang Yang, who was a little bored, began to count his equipment carefully,

A longsword of ordinary texture.

A short sword with a slightly better texture of about a foot.

A hand-armed axe.

5 throwing knives.

7 slap-long, sharp nails.

A normal short bow.

A bucket of 15 arrows.

A set of leather armor with iron scales.

A vulture shield.

A space pouch that fits snugly in your arms.

More than 4,900 gold coins, with a few coins.

A mess of ingredients and a thick manual for mercenaries.

I'm already armed to the teeth, but fortunately I have a very convenient space bag. Otherwise, this pile of gold coins and bits and pieces would be enough to drink a pot of my own.

Oh, and that's got a cover on the floor and a little pot on the fire......
