Chapter 9: A Big Business {VIP Chapter 7}
Liu Zhenzhen went on the road alone, and before he knew it, he had quietly entered the interior of the Southern Cross Forest from the Bering Mountains.
After being free of the burden and burden, Liu Zhenzhen completely dissolved into this vast nature, the scenery in the Southern Cross Forest was beautiful, with tangled vines and thick moss. The towering ancient trees here, all of them are more than 40 meters high, the beasts are singing and the birds are crying, and the pine waves are bursting, which is even more profound and ancient.
The reason why Liu Zhenzhen did not go to the station of the Pyr bear people from the Danube was that he was afraid of the annoying goblins, and another reason was that he also wanted to meet the titan giants here for a while.
In the depths of the vast Southern Cross Forest, hills of varying heights and dense forests that do not see the light of day, are scattered dozens of mountain giants and tribes of hill giants, these giants with only one eye are descendants of the legendary Titans, who are about five blades tall and powerful, and can throw huge stones and easily break trees. The Giants are an extremely xenophobic race, they can only get along with their close relatives Dwarves, and other races will be smashed into meatloaf if they invade their territory.
Originally, the best candidate to guard this area was the Orephine giant elephant warrior with natural power, but the elephant tribe was scarce and had been stationed on the northeastern border, so King Beamon retreated to the next best place and deployed the Bil Tyrant Warrior, who was known for his strength, among the five major nobles.
Although the Pyrrhic Bear Warriors of the Pier Clan are still difficult to compete with the Titan Giants in terms of strength, with the addition of their vassals, the addition of the Boer Minotaur warriors, who are also known for their strength, after the two are offset, at least in terms of numbers, they can make the Titan Cyclops think twice.
Liu Zhenzhen has always been full of curiosity about the part of the dragon power that he has obtained the curse, and he really wants to compete with these giants.
But it was a pity to him that since entering this vast Southern Cross forest, the giant tribe has not encountered it, but the demonic beasts have encountered a lot.
Bipedal wyverns, vampire giant bats, griffins, and almost every day you go, you can meet a new species, which really opened Liu Zhenzhen's eyes. Gradually, he also estimated that the magic beasts here also seemed to be strictly divided into territory, and where he walked every day, once he entered the realm of a certain type of magic beast, he could immediately be attacked by that kind of magic beast. Where there are waterfalls and streams, they are all public areas, so they are relatively safe.
After walking for a few days, Liu Zhenzhen's skin bag had already carried a few pieces of the best Demonic Beast Crystal Nucleus, and those Demonic Beasts who had taken the liberty of challenging him were all planted under the terrifying dense array mace and the fist of the Zhai Jinren.
Liu Zhenzhen's only regret is that he ran into a rare unicorn today, and when he released a dense array and rushed up, the unicorn actually twisted his ass and ran away.
Coward! Liu Zhenzhen pointed to the unicorn's ass and scolded.
When it was time to camp at night, Liu Zhenzhen counted the itinerary with his fingers, and took out the broken map and flipped it over, it is estimated that it is not far from the station of the Pier tribe, and the mood is very good, in front of the bonfire, Lao Liu put his harvest in the past half a month, very proudly laid out a row, several huge crystal nuclei in the night sky and the bonfire, blooming with blurry beauty, so that Liu Zhenxing burst into a burst of joy.
However, there are also pity, there was a scarred Zhai Jinren who damaged an arm in the battle with the griffin, and this discovery made Liu Zhenzhen happy and couldn't help but feel a little more than worth the loss.
He finally understood the reason why those sacrificial lords and embarrassed Robert had been so ambiguous in their attitudes towards the two of them when they came to the Southern Cross Forest for trial.
This kind of forest full of demonic beasts, without the escort of the army, if it is not for its own strength, it is really self-killing.
"It's still Master Cui Beiqian, who is good, she actually stuffed us with so many crystal nuclei, she is also beautiful, peugeot and plump, and as soon as the waist of the water snake is swinged, she will hook the soul as much as she wants." Liu Zhenzhen held a big cigar in his mouth, lying on the grass, looking up at the starry night sky, thinking wildly for a while, and his mind was full of confused thoughts.
"I don't know how she spent the first time with Mourinho's ancestor, how did the beautiful snake cave the house?" Liu Zhenzhen thought about it and thought about it, he wanted to be crooked, a "hehe" cheap laugh, the cold wind blew, he was excited, and he scolded himself for two shameless and obscene.
The fragrant smell of food buried under the campfire interrupted Liu's shocking thoughts.
Liu Zhenzhen removed the bonfire, used a scimitar to dig through a thin layer of soil covering the bonfire, and pulled out a steaming melon from it.
This melon was left over when he came back from Bra Island, and there were less than ten melons in total at that time, Liu Zhenzhen gave one to each of the three little beauties, and the rest was all given to Gude and them. Helen and Ning Yu's melons were eaten by the little beasts early in the morning, and Ning Yu and Helen were a little used to fruits, and they raised them more and more obsessively. Only Avril has never been willing to eat this melon, Guoguo wanted to eat it secretly, and she was scolded once by pulling her ears.
On the first day Liu Zhen entered the Southern Cross Forest, he found this melon that had begun to deflate a little from his package, and his heart was warm.
In fact, Avril has changed a lot now! Liu Zhenzhen thought about the past and the present, and felt that he was really sorry for Xiao Ai sometimesβespecially in his attitude.
Be kind to her in the future, Liu Zhenzhen thought as he slapped the melon.
A moving fragrance suddenly wafted out, and Liu Zhenzhen sniffed it first.
The inside of the melon is hollowed out, and two fat hazelnut chickens are stuffed, and the sweetness of the fruit and the meaty aroma of game are intertwined to create a rich flavor.
"Haha! One egg hatches two phoenixes! Liu Zhenzhen rubbed his hands, snuffed out the cigar, picked two branches from the ground, peeled the skin, and prepared to make a pair of chopsticks. During this time, Liu Zhenzhen used a spoon to eat, and he was already afraid of using it.
"It smells so good!" A thunderous voice shook the entire silent forest.
Liu Zhenzhen raised his head and saw the light of the campfire, and slowly walked out of the darkness with a tall figure.
This figure gradually became clear, it was a giant with a height of seven or eight meters away, mixed with clothes made of emerald green leaves, with long whiskers floating all over his body, the giant's face was a waxy yellow, mixed with a little faint green, his hair and beard were like the vines of a thousand-year-old tree, green, and the night breeze blew, gently echoing.
Is this a beggar or a giant field army? Liu Zhenzhen was stunned at first, and then laughed.
"Night Traveler, your food is so good!" The giant seemed to be afraid of fire, and walked around the fire and walked to Liu Zhenzhen's side, who looked up at him.
The giant's two thighs, peeking out from under the foliage clothes, were strong and powerful, and there was no hair on the skin, only the texture of the rings of wood.
"Let's have a bite to eat?" Liu Zhen shook the melon in his hand and called it a chicken.
"Thank you so much!" The giant sat cross-legged, his massive body obscuring the night sky behind him.
"You're so big, I'm afraid you won't have enough to eat! You're a Titan, right? I've heard that Cyclops can grow to the height of seven or eight blades. Liu Zhenzhen pretended to be knowledgeable and said.
"Titans?" The giant ate a hazel chicken in one bite, and laughed while chewing: "Night Traveler, I'm not a Titan giant, those big guys with brains like stones have nothing to do with me!" β
"You eat slowly, why don't you even vomit bones?" Liu Zhenzhen felt that this guy was really a little scary, and his appearance was even more ugly than his own, "Give you another taste of this!" β
Liu Zhenzhen took out the bladder of the water-filled beast, shook it a few times, and handed it to the giant. There is a pot of spring water that he poured into a few days ago, and he has been soaking in that turtle bead for a few days, and Liu Zhenzhen has not bothered to drink it.
"What is this?" The giant asked curiously, squeezing the bladder of the beast with a little effort with his thick fingers.
"It's wine." Liu Zhenzhen replied.
"My favorite drink! I also have wine on me. The giant's eyes lit up, and he felt like he had met his soulmate. From under the clothes made of wide leaves, he took out a huge wooden pot and handed it to Liu Zhenzhen.
Liu Zhenzhen took the wine jug and felt that his head sank in his hand, and this pot of wine was fifty or sixty catties to say the least. The wooden pot is clearly naturally grown, and the texture on the outside has been polished to a slicker brownish-yellow color, which is unbelievably chic.
"It tastes good." Liu Zhenzhen unscrewed the wooden cork on the spout of the pot and tasted it, and there was a sweet fruity aroma in his mouth, which echoed between his teeth and cheeks for a long time.
The giant laughed, and also opened Liu's shocking water bag and poured it into his mouth.
The giant squirted out all the sip of wine he had just drunk and poured it on the bonfire far away from him, and with a loud bang, the flames of the bonfire suddenly rose to a high level, rolling up a black cloud, and the flying sparks blackened the branches hanging in the air.
The giant fell to the grass one by one, and a towering cedar behind him buzzed and swayed, dropping a large pile of nuts.
"What's wrong?" Liu Zhen was taken aback.
"You're so good!" The giant's face turned blue with fright, "What kind of wine is this?" β
"The star-tailed turtle's turtle beads have been soaked for several days." Liu Zhenzhen took the water bag a little disbelievingly, and carefully squinted a drop, and a burning sensation accompanied by saliva burned from the vocal cords to the stomach.
"What a fierce wine!" Liu shook and stuck out his tongue, picked up the giant's flask, and poured it violently.
"The beads of the star-tailed turtle? How old is that star-tailed turtle? The giant shifted a little further away from the burning "crackling" campfire.
"It's more than a thousand years old." Liu Zhenzhen pulled out the pitch-black turtle bead the size of a pigeon's egg in the water bag and shook it in front of the giant.
"You soaked the more than 1,000-year-old Star-tailed Turtle Bead in so little water for several days? And then ready to drink it? "The giant's gaze seemed to be looking at a madman.
"What's wrong?" Liu Zhenzhen was a little puzzled.
"This high-purity alcohol will kill you!" The giant was angry to death, and the Beamon in front of him was really not ordinary ignorance, and he recognized his identity wrongly, and he almost let himself be burned to death by the terrible fire with pride.
"Then what else do you want it to do, I'll still drink your bar." Liu Zhenzhen poured all the bag of alcohol on the campfire, grabbed the giant's wooden jug, and poured a few sips of sweet wine from time to time.
"Traveler, can you drink less, the mountain mank monkey, all the wine made during this time is here, you have to leave some for me." The giant said a little distressed.
"Monkey wine?" Liu Zhenzhen took another sip and smashed his mouth, "It's not bad!" β
"This is a specialty of the Southern Cross Forest!" The giant said with a little pride: "Except for us Ente Shepherds, no one has this blessing!" β
"Ente Shepherd?" Liu Zhenzhen didn't hear Helen talk about this race, and he was blindfolded all of a sudden.
He only knew that in addition to the Titan Giant Tribe, there was also an elven kingdom in the endless Southern Cross Forest under the Bering Mountains, and the population of this elven kingdom was about five thousand, divided into three tribes scattered in the forest. According to Helen, the elves, whether male or female, have extremely beautiful appearances, kind and intelligent personalities, keen sight and hearing, and they can be young and healthy forever, with a lifespan of three or four thousand years, and can be killed, or die because of a broken heart. It is said that every elf is extremely good at archery, and even in the dark of night in the depths of the dense forest, they can quickly pull out their arrows and shoot them into the eyes of small birds a hundred meters away.
Fearing the elven archery skills, His Majesty King Beamon transferred the centaur archers of the House clan to the vassals of the Pier clan after repeated times. In fact, it is very painful to cut love, in Beamon, long-range attack power has always been a difficult problem, the House centaur archer is the best archer of Beamon, in ancient mythology, the constellation of archers in the sky is named after the centaur totem Aeolis.
Liu Zhenzhen looked this giant up and down, still unable to figure out what race he was from.
"I can't believe that we Ente shepherds have now disappeared from Beamon's memory." The giant couldn't help but sigh a little.
"It's okay anyway, you might as well tell me about it." Liu Zhenzhen wiped his nose: "I'm just a country Bimeng, and I'm a little short-sighted." β
"Unlike you humans who evolved from animals, we Ents are intelligent humans who evolved from plants." When the giant stretched out his hand and opened Liu Zhenzhen's mouth wide, he picked up the cigar that fell on the ground and put it on his mouth: "Don't be surprised, dear Beamon sacrifice, your wisdom can ensure that you can understand what I am talking about, after tens of thousands of years of evolution, the body structure of us intelligent humans is basically the same, whether it is evolved by animals or plants, it is the same truth." β
"Obis Ratch!" Liu Zhenzhen really felt a little frightened: "Then what do you Ente people usually eat?" Like just now? Eating meat? β
"Dear Beamon Sacrifice! There are also man-eating flowers in plants! What's the big deal if we eat some meat! The shepherd's words seemed to have the meaning of mocking Liu Zhenzhen and making a fuss.
"So you see my sacrificial identity." Liu Zhenzhen was a little embarrassed, he was shocked, he had indeed lost his identity as a priest with profound knowledge.
"During the Great War of Gods and Demons, I also fought with you Beamon orcs against the invading demons from the space-time rift of the Southern Cross Forest." The shepherd said disdainfully, "Then the human race seems to be one of your Beamons, and the god of war Campas who has not betrayed you!" β
"Obis Ratch!" Liu Zhenzhen asked, "Brother, how old are you this year?" β
"Me?" The shepherd said a little sadly: "I myself have forgotten my own age, the long years make me almost unable to remember the past, we herdsmen have a super long lifespan, even so much than the model family in Mongolia." β
"It turned out to be a respected elder!" Liu Zhen was in awe.
"Don't be so formal, boy Beamon. From the faint dragon breath on your body, mosquitoes dare not approach, and I know that you are not simply a Beamon soul sacrifice. Even the mighty warriors of the Beamon clan rarely dared to appear alone in this terrifying Demon Beast Forest! The shepherd smiled "hehe": "I don't know if the dragons I knew back then are still alive now, I really miss it." β
"Why is it that there is no record of the Ente shepherds in our kingdom of Bimon? I'm really weird! Liu Zhenzhen also smiled. However, he wondered a little how this tree shepherd could be so unknown now when he opened his mouth and closed his mouth, all he knew was some powerful creatures, and he had fought side by side with the Beamon orcs.
"Maybe that battle a thousand years ago ruined your civilization and your records. I have been asleep for the last 500 years, and because of loneliness, every 1,000 years or so, I fall into a long sleep, and every time I wake up, I know how long I have been asleep from the rings on my body. The shepherd stroked his arm, and his eyebrows couldn't hide a faint sadness: "We Ente herdsmen are the masters of the forest, and just like your herdsmen grazing the sand beasts, we herdsmen are the herdsmen who graze the forest. Back then, I came to Danube from the distant continent of Atlantis, which was only a battlefield after the Great War of Gods and Demons, and now, the Southern Cross Forest is the most beautiful green treasure house on this continent. β
"Grazing the forest?" Liu Zhen was speechless, the history of this forest has been tens of thousands of years, who can be so good?
"Now my home continent of Atlantis has been submerged in the endless waters, and I don't know where my people are," the shepherd took a breath of his cigar and swallowed the cigarette into his stomach.
Liu Zhenzhen was said by him, but he felt a little sympathetic to the same fate, why not himself, hometown? What a distant dream
"We herdsmen have the ability to communicate with plants, the day before yesterday I just woke up from a deep sleep, and I heard the old trees in the forest talking about a powerful Beamon sacrifice hunting Warcraft, so I came to take a look, Warcraft also has its own right to live, we Shepherds love life very much, and we also hope to maintain the balance of the forest." The shepherd clumsily knocked the ash of his cigar and said to Liu Zhenzhen.
"Hehe" Liu Zhenzhen also smiled. Liu Zhenzhen said in his heart, you just blow it, and the tree can also talk about it? That's.
"I wouldn't have seen strangers, I'm old and used to being alone. Miraculous Beamon Sacrifice, do you know why I came out to meet you? The shepherd looked at Liu Zhenzhen with a smile.
"Because I'm ugly?" Liu Zhenzhen touched his nose.
"You are very handsome, my young man, and many people may not understand your handsomeness. But even the handsomeness of the elves, in the eyes of the shepherd, is no match for a small but thriving spruce. The shepherd smiled and pointed to the melon resting on the ground and said, "This melon of yours is very wonderful, and although I consider myself the master of the forest, I have never seen a melon with such a sweet taste." This melon makes me want to come out and meet you, the shepherd likes to collect wonderful plants, just as the dragon likes to collect gold coins. Can I ask you where this melon came from? β
"From the Desert Country." Liu Zhenzhen thought about it for a moment and replied.
"Oh" the shepherd suddenly realized: "No wonder I haven't seen it, it turns out to be a plant from the forbidden area of our shepherd, the desert." β
"You tree shepherds also have forbidden areas?" Liu Zhenzhen looked at his huge figure and thought to himself that this thing was probably a coward.
"We are plant evolutionary and have a natural fear of deserts and fire. So, there is no forest in the desert at all, because there are no shepherds who go there to graze. The shepherd smiled.
Nonsense! Liu Zhenzhen thought to himself, there is a forest in the desert, is it still called a desert?
"Do you still have this kind of melon?" The shepherd asked Liu Zhenzhen, "I want to exchange a little collectible with you." β
"I have a lot of seeds for this kind of melon, I don't know what you are going to exchange for it?" As soon as Liu Zhenzhen heard about the exchange of collections, he was full of energy, and he has been nostalgic since the last pleasant trip. What's more, this simple tree herdsman has long lifted out the hole cards, hehe, like plants like the old dragon likes gold coins.
"Have you ever heard of the deepest part of the forest, in some hidden places, where there are fountains of life and elemental springs? It was the essence of the forest elves condensed over thousands of years. The shepherd took out a wooden pot from under the clothes made of leaves, "The fountain of life in the forest is the fountain of the essence that can give birth to life, and every drop can turn the barren earth into fertile soil, and can make the plant grow to its peak state in ten years in one day." The Forest Elemental Fountain is rich in abundant elemental power, which can instantly help the sacrifice replenish the singing power, and can also help the magician replenish the magic power, which is really suitable for your sacrifice. In this wooden pot of mine, it is the purest elemental spring, or I accumulated it thousands of years ago, I will exchange this with you for this wonderful melon seed, how about it? β
"Don't." Liu Zhen was frustrated.
The Elemental Fountain may have been useful to Helen, but it was of no use to him. His singing power is almost useless, the genuine war song can't be sung, and the self-created one is unsightly, besides, after the war song is sung, the faint sense of detachment in his body also makes him feel that the war song is a chicken rib at all.
"What?" Even if the shepherd is well-informed, he is also confused by this sacrifice, and there is still a sacrifice that does not want this kind of heavenly treasure that instantly replenishes the power of the song?
"What else do you have?" Liu Zhenzhen asked.
"What do you want?" The Shepherd is a little unsure of this guy.
"Is there any of this?" Liu Zhenzhen turned his face to the side and twisted his two fingers.
"Iskosmi! The thing we hate most is metal. The shepherd was so depressed that he even burst out in tongues, this guy turned out to be a complete money fan.
"Kampas!" Liu Zhenzhen also felt bored: "Don't tell me, you have some plants on you." β
The shepherd nodded.
"Well, don't you know a few old dragons? How about you go borrow some money from them, and then we can make an exchange? Liu Zhenzhen thought of a compromise solution.
The shepherd was so speechless by what he said that for a moment, he didn't know what to say.
"You really don't have anything of value?" Liu Zhenzhen asked relentlessly, "Do you have any 10,000-year-old ginseng?" There is no Tamur Raya Wannian Snow Lotus"
"You think it's a novel?" The shepherds are about to die of anger, that kind of thing will not be eaten for 10,000 years, and it will not grow into an old trunk.
"Then have you eaten and eaten full, delicious food plants? The yield has to be high! Liu Zhenzhen thought of the number of people in his family, and he had a flash of inspiration.
"Yes." When the shepherd saw that the profiteer had finally asked what he could have, he hurriedly pulled out a bag of seeds wrapped in leaves.
The seeds are beige, round, and lined with turquoise oak leaves, which are lovely.
"What is this?" Liu Zhenzhen asked.
"This is my grandfather's grandfather's collection, a plant from the ancient dragon era - alder banana. The plant is now extinct, and it was the main food of some powerful herbivorous wurmists! The huge stem is erect and straight, up to eight blades high, with a graceful body, and the huge pinnate leaves, up to three blades long, scattered and elegant. Among its pinnate leaves, it is the finest banana flesh, which is fragrant and sweet, and can continue to grow after each harvest. The shepherd said.
"Hehe, like a leek!" Liu Zhenzhen smiled.
"It's a pity, despite this function, the alder banana is still eaten by the huge wurmmon and is almost extinct. I guess you don't have a few dragon beasts in your house, right? The shepherd laughed too.
"Almost." Liu Zhenzhen cried with a sad face. Half the size, eating the poor old man, the hundreds of boys and girls in the family, and Guoguo are simply a fight.
"Seriously recommend alder banana to you!" The shepherd took out half of the seeds, and sent the other half to Liu Zhenzhen.
Liu Zhenzhen shook his head: "I think I'm still a little bit of a loss, what good plants do you have, it's best to sell them for gold coins, the kind that can make money, you take one out again, even if you give it to me." β
Even if the shepherd is pure and gentle and peace-loving, he almost can't help but turn against him.
For the sake of the melon that he had never seen before, the shepherd took a deep breath and took out a bag of seeds wrapped in oak leaves: "This is the extinct thousand-colored dill, the flowers are very beautiful, each flower has its own unique color, there will be no repeated color in a thousand flowers, this kind of dill flower can dye the nails of girls who love beauty; Its long, green vines can also decorate your mansion, and this thousand-colored dogle flower will produce red fruits, which have a very good use for absorbing body odor. β
"Absorb body odor? What's the use of this? And you can't exchange money! Liu Zhenzhen said disdainfully.
"You know what?" The shepherd reprimanded the inflexible Beamon: "Do many of you Beamon orcs and humans have a strange smell in their armpits? β
"I don't think so." Liu Zhenzhen took out a handful of armpits and sniffed them, but fortunately, only the smell of sweat was there.
"That's good, you pick this fruit and sell it to these people who have a smell on it, can't you sell it for money?" The shepherd said.
"That's right!" Liu Zhenzhen patted his head and took the bag of seeds in surprise.
Hum! That's why you animal evolved guys have this problem. The shepherd scratched his armpits.
"You put it away!" Liu Zhenzhen gave a bag of melon seeds to the shepherd, and kept a bag himself.
"I won't bother you." The shepherd smiled, "The food you cook really tastes like a hobbit halfling, thank you for your hospitality tonight." β
Liu Zhenzhen didn't speak, he put his toes on his toes, put his hands on a pergola and looked behind the shepherd.
"What are you looking at?" The shepherd slowly turned and looked behind him, and there was nothing but the dark woods.
Liu Zhenzhen took advantage of him to turn around, picked up the wooden pot containing the Elemental Spring, and poured it into his water bag.
By the time the shepherd turned his head, Liu Zhenzhen had already called it a day, and the ten gallons of Life Elemental Spring in the wooden pot had been killed by him.
There can't be too much corruption.
Liu Zhenzhen estimated that according to the size and strength of this shepherd, he could not measure the difference between five catties and ten catties.
"Hehe, I just saw a meteor and made a wish for you, I hope you can find your own people as soon as possible!" Liu Zhenzhen looked at the shepherd with sincerity.
The shepherd didn't speak for a long time, but just looked at him quietly, and there was emotion in his eyes.
"Thank you!" The shepherd nodded gratefully, bent down to pick up the Elemental Spring, and handed the wooden pot containing the monkey wine to Liu Zhenzhen: "This pot of wine will be given to you too, my dear young man Beamon." β
Day your grandma! Liu Zhenzhen called it a hate in his heart, he already knew that he would change the position of these two wooden pots!
