Chapter 32: Collapse
After winning a battle to defend their homeland, the chieftain and shaman happily led the tribesmen to sort out the spoils of war, and the huge corpses of snakes, bears, and falcons were stripped of their skin and hair, cut into long strips, and made a fire with the surplus waste from the timber construction site, and baked all into jerky. The five white jade snails were still covered by the empty carriage www.biquge.info, and the minotaur moved one back, threw it into a large pot and boiled it slowly, and when night fell, everyone drank delicious snail soup together.
Summing up the experience of this battle, Clark and Olipas agreed that the defensive terrain needed to be strengthened, the military training of the camel people needed to be improved, and the Duchy should also set up a guard team to detect distant movements as soon as possible.
The half-elf found a telescope and called Luo Qi to his side, "Xiao Qi, in the future, the information of our principality will depend on you to provide it." ”
"Shaman, I'm honored to be a scout. But I still don't understand why you fall in love with me? ”
"Your number is zero zero seven, and if you don't go to be a spy, then who will be a spy?"
Touching his swollen belly, the chief carefully instructed the wolf-headed man to lead the camel people to practice hard, and then shouldered the double-sided axe, ready to drill down the tunnel and continue the construction of the underground palace.
"Captain, you bring this." The half-elf handed over a glowing magic crystal.
"What is this?"
"I added a teleportation spell to it, and if another powerful enemy comes to the village, I will activate another teleportation crystal, and your crystal will keep emitting a strong light, and then you will immediately know the enemy's situation."
"Oh, that's good stuff." The minotaur casually took it into his arms, "If you can't resist it, you can retreat to the pit I dug first and hide for a while." Well, don't forget to bring those kids with you. ”
"Come on, come on, there's still a little bit at the bottom of the pot, drink it all up, don't waste it." Oripas belched as he greeted his brother beside him.
"There are enemies!" Luo Qi, who was holding a telescope, suddenly shouted, stretched out his hand and pointed to a figure walking in the dark corner.
The half-elf squinted, "Don't make a fuss, it's just a little kid...... Well, there are so many kids in this place. ”
"Shaman," Wolf Yi reminded, "the path this kid has taken is where we've planted the most traps. ”
"Ah, that's so dangerous!" Oripas looked at the approaching little girl and shouted, "Little friend, you have to take the right path to the village, and you can't climb over the fence to get in." ”
"Who are you?" The girl who spoke had short blond hair, wore the usual short plaid blouse with gold thread, and had two small golden eyes on her chubby face, "Oh, I heard that a duchy was recently established here, are you the half-elf governor?" ”
"It's Ben-sama." The Governor smiled, "It seems that my reputation for glory and kindness has become a household name among the people of the realm. ”
"Then I wish you good health, blessings and longevity." The blonde girl bowed deeply.
"What a good boy," the Governor pondered for a few more compliments, and suddenly covered his abdomen with his hands, "Hell, my stomach hurts all of a sudden." ”
"You guys were drinking snail soup just now?" The blonde girl glanced at the cauldron, "There are tens of thousands of species of snails in the world, and only seven or eight are completely non-toxic and edible. ”
"Nonsense, everyone drinks soup together, why am I poisoned alone?" The half-elf was unconvinced.
"Some snails are slightly poisonous, and people with strong physiques can not care if they eat them, while those with weak bodies can't stand it."
"My son has always been in good health!" Olipas pulled his pants and ran quickly towards the pit, "It's just an accident, an accident, it doesn't say anything at all." ”
With a whistling moment, the blonde girl turned and walked towards the house of the little brother and sister.
"Great God, why are you here?" Xiaoxing shouted in surprise when he saw the blonde girl knocking on the door.
"Xingxing, I heard that there is a free library here, and there is nothing to do in the past two days, so come and find two books to pass the time."
"It's good that the great god is here, I can finally be an attack mage!" Xiaoxing was happy and said, "But there are no beautiful works in that library, it's all ghost stories, do you like to read them?" ”
"Ghost stories are okay, themes like people and ghosts are very good."
"Fat two, even twist!" Xiao Yu jumped out from behind and reached out to pinch the blonde girl's face.
"Brother, you are really, why do you want to bully her as soon as you see the great god?"
"Xingxing, don't blame your brother, in fact, he is a good person." The two sighed.
"I warn you, don't say I'm a good person anymore!" Xiao Yu pointed to her nose, "If you hadn't called me like this all day long, would I have received a basket of good people cards?" ”
"Youyou, you haven't been able to retreat for many years to die and die, it's because your own conditions are not enough, what does it have to do with me?" The eyes of the two of them were very innocent, "However, a kind person like me, although it is none of my business, I still wish you to find a beautiful, gentle, virtuous, and considerate good girlfriend and wife as soon as possible." ”
"Stay away from me!" Xiao You jumped excitedly, "Forget it, I'll just be a little away from you." He hurried out of the house and disappeared into the night.
"Great God, let's go, brother, let's destroy this group of pretentious savages." Xiao Xing pointed to the tribesmen under the totem pole, "Clean up these guys as soon as possible, and we can continue to grow immortal peaches in this feng shui treasure land." ”
"What did you say, Star?" The blonde girl looked at her in amazement, "How can we do such a terrible thing, no matter what kind of creature it is, it has the right to live, killing for no reason is a big crime!" ”
"Great God, I'm relieved if you say that." Xiaoxing clapped his little hands, "Then let's read the ghost story book tonight, and we'll talk about other things tomorrow." ”
"Is there anything more eerie about here, watching ghost stories in the house is not atmospheric."
"Spooky?" Xiao Xing tilted his head and thought for a while, "There is a very deep and complex underground pit at the back of the village, which was dug by the Minotaur with a group of undead creatures, maybe a lot of corpses and ghosts were unearthed when they were dug up, it should be very terrifying to go there." ”
"Alright, let's go to the tunnel."
Holding a large pile of books, the two girls tiptoed from the entrance to the ground, turning many turns in the dark corridor, and finally sat down and prepared to start reading.
"Stars, don't use this bright white light for flares, use green and bleak phosphorus fire."
"Great God, if there is a buried skeleton underground, will there be a corpse transformation?"
"Of course, since the era of the Divine War, I don't know how many bones have been hidden here, even if it is not surprising to encounter one or two corpse transformed gods." The two of them sighed, "Actually, the scariest thing is not encountering ghosts. ”
"What could be more terrifying?" Xiaoxing asked curiously.
"Collapse!" The two of them pointed to the top of their heads, "We are already dozens of feet away from the ground now, and if we are buried in the earth, there is no chance to escape at all." ”
"Great God, this place is going to collapse, right?" Xiaoxing looked at the two of them expectantly.
"I think this tunnel is very scientific, very exquisite, very reasonable, completely up to the standard of a century-old project, and it is unreasonable to want to collapse."
"Great God!" Xiaoxing shouted angrily, "How can you say that! ”
"Why did I always feel upset when I went to bed last night?" Waking up early in the morning, the half-elf who rubbed his eyes climbed out of the special carriage, looked at the sky, it was quiet, and looked into the distance, nothing abnormal.
"Shaman, what are we going to do today?" A group of camel men came to ask for instructions.
"The house is all built, let's go farm today." The shaman pointed to the large "fertile fields" outside the village: "You go and plow the soil twice, and then sprinkle some wheat seeds, and with the blessing of your ancestors, the harvest of the five grains is just around the corner." ”
After sending his people to work, the Governor picked up the message crystal and wanted to call the captain to discuss it.
"Lord Shaman, now that there is no invasion from outside, you can call the chief over casually, that is tantamount to creating a 'wolf coming' incident, and if there is a real danger in the future, the chief may not believe it." The pro-soldiers kindly reminded.
"What do you mean by 'the wolf is coming', aren't you already here?" The shallow half-elves naturally hadn't heard of this allusion, and ignored the wolf-headed man's warning, and still sent a communication signal.
After waiting and waiting, the distraught Oripas did not see the minotaur come up until noon, so he called back half of the camel men who were working in the fields, and ordered them to go to the pit at once to find the chieftain.
After a few more hours, the messengers brought back very bad news: the bottom section of the tunnel had collapsed and was tightly blocked, and the minotaur was not found in the tunnel, except for some undead creatures who continued to work at the branch intersection.
