Under the guidance of Thea, Stern and Little Ash soon came to a mountain peak, they climbed to the top of the mountain quickly with energy, at this time they looked around, the surrounding mountains seemed to be covered with a black veil of mystery, on the top of the mountain in the east showed an orange-red morning glow, the morning glow was a layer of black pressure, today it seems to be a gloomy weather.

The two men and the beast climbed over the mountain peak to the foot of the mountain to the north, where the terrain was open and there were not too many bushes and thorns, Stern stopped and shouted to Thea, who was leading the way:

"Xia, stop, I see that the terrain here is gentle, let's ride Ash on the road. ”。 Thea stopped when she heard Stern's shout, and replied:

"Okay, Uncle Andy. Knowing that he was going to ride on the back of a low-level demonic beast on the road, his face showed an irrepressible look of excitement.

Little Gray carried Stern and Thea on the gentle mountain road and ran quickly, after nearly two months of rest, the magic crystal in its head was already full of energy, and now it was definitely stronger than two horses combined, carrying two people with one big and one small two hundred and fifty pounds, it didn't need much strength at all.

Looking at the timberwolves running like a flying force under him, Thea showed a look of admiration on his face, and he said to Stern,

"Uncle Andy, you are really too powerful, you can actually subdue the low-level Demonic Beast mutated timberwolves. "You know, they need several high-level and mid-level dwarven warriors to join forces to fight off a low-level demonic beast mutated goblin, and this timberwolf is much stronger than the low-level goblin.

After more than two hours, under Thea's guidance, they came to a ridge full of stones, the ground was uneven, and the cracks in the stones were overgrown with shrubs, and Stern had to get off the back of Little Ash and climb on foot, which, according to Thea's memory, had to walk about twenty miles to reach a ravine, and it seemed that they had to spend eight or nine hours on this difficult ridge.

"Sam, Hagrid, Ron, hurry up, everyone's ready, just a few of you. Goldbeard's loud voice echoed throughout the cavern, urging his dwarves.

Today Stern is not there, Goldbeard has begun to wake up the sleeping dwarves very early, and now he takes his dwarves with weapons to the valley to collect fish, except for the young and old, everyone else has been called by him, about ten young and strong dwarves were arranged by Goldbeard to go to the nearby mountains to chop firewood, and a total of more than thirty people set off towards the valley.

The dwarves are scattered all over the lake,

The surface of the lake is filled with the sound of pounding ice.

"You should do this, dig a hole in the edge of this fish little by little with the sharp horns of the catalpa, and then pry it up with the fish and the ice, yes, that's it, take your time and don't rush. Goldbeard taught the dwarves who hadn't come to pick fish yesterday.

The dwarves are very industrious, and they all seem to be working hard, and they all have happy smiles on their faces when they watch the fish being dug up one by one.

It was noon, and the dwarves left the lake and sat down on the grass, resting while eating the dry food they had brought.

"It was a blessing to meet that tall young man when we were in a desperate situation, he was really a good man, who saved us from continuing to freeze in the cold field, and also allowed us to eat tender and delicious fish. One of the dwarves said,

"Yes, if it weren't for him, we're not sure how many more people would have froze to death along the way, he was sent by the gods to save us. ”

"In the morning I saw him and Thea set out to find Thea's father and the other dwarves, and I hope Thea will find his father and come back safely. "The dwarves are chatting with each other, and their words reveal their gratitude and admiration for Stern.

After a short break for lunch, the dwarves resumed their hard work, each of them faster and more skilled than they had been in the morning.

Stern and Thea walked all the way through rocky ridges and winding hills, stopping for a moment to rest, eating some food from the dwarves, and then continuing on their way, the weather became more gloomy in the afternoon, and the temperature was lower than in the morning, and perhaps soon it would rain, and they had to quicken their pace.

"Xia, if you're tired after walking for so long, if you're tired, we can stop and drink some water and rest. Stern looked at Thea's panting appearance and couldn't help but ask.

"It's okay, I can still hold on, it won't be long before we reach the canyon, and the canyon road will open up. "Thea was in a hurry to find her father, so she hurried away, and he had no intention of stopping to rest.

Seeing that he was sweating so much, Stern should be thirsty, stepped forward, took a bucket of fresh water from the ring and handed it to him.

Sia took a few sips of fresh water and gave it back to Stern, and continued on his way, now all he wanted to do was get to his destination early and find out his father's whereabouts.

When evening came, Stern and the others stood on the hill and saw a high mountain rock not far ahead, and a large river blocked their way.

"Is that the canyon you're talking about?" Stern asked Thea. Thea nodded and said:

"The big river in front of us is the canyon bottom, and the water flow is relatively fast, but in such a cold weather, I don't know why the river does not freeze, so we just took off the animal skins and threw them on the opposite side, and then waded through the river. After about a quarter of an hour the two men came to the bank of the river, and Stern saw that the distance between the two banks was about five meters, and he took off his animal skins, clothes, and boots, and threw them on the other side of the river, and when he had done this, he went barefoot into the river.

"Hiss~" As the cold and biting river washed his legs, Stern couldn't help but shiver, the river was not very deep, about a little more than a meter, he crossed the river as fast as possible, reached the other side of the river, shook the water droplets on his body, wiped his body with the canvas he brought, and quickly put on his clothes and sheepskin coat, Xiao Ash took a few steps back and jumped directly to the other side of the river, and Thea also crossed the river and got dressed like Stern.

"If you climb over the hillside in front of you, the terrain will become flat. Thea said to Stern.

"Then let's hurry up and try to find a better place to rest and sleep before dark. Stern replied, and Thea nodded, and the two of them continued on their way.

After about an hour, they had crossed the hill and rode Ash as fast as they could into the distance.

Night was approaching, and they had to find a place to rest in time.
