Chapter 1039 Little Black Tan's strange behavior

"Little Black Carbon should be fine......"

When Jeluka and I came back from the sea of books and found that it was completely dark, we hurriedly left the Mage Guild and took a look at the real room of the Hell-That Gang of the Plan to Save Humanity, and found that it was still brightly lit, and an unconcealable smell of gunpowder even came out of the crack in the door.

Mages of the two clans, you have worked hard, come on, and don't fight, I bless you.

Needless to say, she probably meant this: Hmph, this personal maid is really wise, just a little trick to let these guys work like cows and horses.

Although I really want to complain about this guy's black-hearted capitalist thinking again, but this time it is indeed thanks to her construction, even if she uses some more unscrupulous small strategies, otherwise, I don't think that the team of alliance mages alone will work so hard to do research for Xiao Heitan.

By the way, a lot of information on the Dragon Soul Grass has also been found, and even some decisive books have been found, and it has been basically determined that this thing with a vulgar name is not good, except for the one that is marked as a mystery within a mystery by all the books on the whole continent, and even doubts whether it exists in the Dragon Paradise, which can only be found there, and it is impossible to grow in other places, unless there is a guy who can enter and exit the Dragon Paradise freely, and maybe let the Dragon Soul Grass flow outside, otherwise, The only way we can get is to go to Dragon Paradise and deal with those dragons.

This is simply incomprehensible, bastard, let's not say where the Dragon Paradise is, even if you know, can those dragons treat us in a friendly manner and politely present a Dragon Soul Grass?

Upon discovering this fact, both Jeluka and I felt as if we had been deceived by the owner of a toothbrush stall with the sign of "Bao Bu Hair Removal", and flipped the table in anger, almost turning into Godzilla and shaking the entire library.

After that, because it was dark and worried about the little black charcoal, we decisively gave up the revenge plan and hurried home.

"Huh, what about people?"

Lighting a dim kerosene lamp in the dark cavern, but it was empty, and Jeluka and I couldn't help but look at each other, and a thought crossed our minds.

I guess I'm going to the mine again.

"You wait here, maybe the little black charcoal will come back in a while, and I'll go to the mine to have a look."

Frowning, I put the cloak back on, and I said to Jeluka.

As a result, as soon as he took a step, he was held by Jeluka's small hand.

"Is His Royal Highness a fool?"

"I don't want to be scolded like this by you for no reason." I looked at Jeluka speechlessly.

Huh? Why do I say "again"?

"Isn't there this?"

Jeluka dug into the pocket of her maid's garment and pulled out a magical contraption that reflected a metallic sheen in the dim kerosene light, and when I looked closely, I saw that it was a pirated tracking wizard that had been left behind for a long time.

"Ah, it's all gone"

For a moment, I couldn't come back to my senses, and then I slapped my palms hard and suddenly shouted.

In the past few days, I have been busy getting used to the life of my poor father, thinking about the little black charcoal, thinking about how to seal the activities of the painful worm, and I have completely forgotten about the crystal fragments, and even more so about the painful worm, which comes from the crystal fragments embedded in the forehead of the little black charcoal.

Therefore, with the piracy tracking magician, the whereabouts of Xiao Hei Tan will not be out of our grasp.

"I really don't know if His Royal Highness is too focused or really stupid."

Jeluka sighed and put the tracking wizard on the left side of the complaining head again, and in an instant, the skull cookie emitted a piercing tinnitus alarm.

If you wear it on your head all the time, it is estimated that it can be used as a 100-watt light bulb, but I don't know whether to charge it or not, and what the battery life is.

Seeing that the originally dim cave instantly showed a white brightness as if it had been swept by lightning, I couldn't help but complain in my heart.

"It's nearby, not very far, directions...... Over here. ”

Because of the reaction immediately presented by the tracking magic guide, we can instantly judge that the location of Xiao Hei Tan is now is not very far from us, definitely no more than 20 kilometers, at least, for the powerhouses above our two pseudo-realms, a distance of 20 kilometers is not too long.

Skillfully fiddling with the tracking wizard, a moment later, we came to a very close place, towering in front of us was a vast mountain of wasteland that stretched for dozens of miles, starting from a height of several hundred meters, the peak became steeper, and the more we got to the top, the more straight the cliff wall became like a blade, like an upside-down long-necked funnel.

This form is somewhat similar to the Demon Fortress, but the height is far from enough, the top of the mountain is only a thousand meters, and the natural peak pillar that supports the Demon Fortress is also more than three thousand meters above the lowest cliff on the ground.

This is definitely a deserted mountain, and it is clear from the traces we have observed along the way, it is not an experience area for adventurers to come, and few ordinary civilians dare to dare to come to such a dangerous place.

The question is...... Why is Little Black Charcoal here?

Pressing the doubts in our hearts, we raised our heads slightly, looking at this deserted place, the third person who appeared in the depths of the night.

A panting black-robed mage.

"Elder."

His figure flickered a few times, and finally appeared in front of us, bowing slightly.

"There is no need to say more polite words, what about the little black charcoal?" I stopped and asked anxiously.

"This ......"

The black-robed mage smiled bitterly as his gaze fell to the mountain behind him.

"Is it there?"

I looked up in disbelief and looked at the straight peak, which was nearly a thousand meters high, and the peaks were completely hidden in the night sky.

Although this height is nothing for adventurers here, if it is a civilian, let alone a small black charcoal, even if it is a strong adult, it is difficult to climb.

The mage nodded wordlessly, confirming our guess.

"Take us to see it."

I grabbed the mage, and the figure swept away, and Jeluka followed, and the three figures scurried straight up the mountain.

Then, near four-fifths of a height, the little black charcoal was found under the guidance of the mage.

She was nesting on a raised boulder in the middle of the cliff, although the position was not wide, but the weight of this thin body was enough, and the fierce wind at a height of nearly a thousand meters hit her, making her like a leaf in the wind, as if she was about to be blown away at any time, falling from this thousand meters high, and falling into pieces.

Even if the environment is so treacherous, this is a rare place to settle on this cliff, and Xiao Heitan probably wants to take a breath here, gasping for breath and curling up tightly, trying to shrink himself smaller to reduce the invasion of the strong wind.

The two of us almost screamed at this scene.

"You can't show up."

Reason has stopped us from acting, and if we go out now, we will be exposed.

No wonder the mage was panting when he first appeared, for him who was not yet able to fly, if he wanted to protect the little black charcoal at such a high altitude, it must be choking, but even a mage was so difficult, how did the little black charcoal, who was an ordinary person, come here with her thin body, and why did she do such a more dangerous thing?

I want to know, at this moment, Jieluka and I are very eager to find out, if we don't find out the answer, we can't understand Xiao Heitan's thoughts, we can't enter her heart at all, we can't be recognized by her, and appearing as parents is just a waste of effort, and it can't drive away the negative feelings in her heart and make her really happy.

After waiting for a while, Little Black Carbon made a move.

As a flesh and blood body of a civilian, although resting here can replenish some body, but if you stay for a long time, you will be frozen by the cold wind, it seems that Xiao Heitan understands this, so he will continue to choose to climb up without fully recovering.

She seemed to be very familiar with this place, even if she could only judge by a little glimmer of light, she could skillfully find the next climbing point, her thin body clinging to the cliff like a gecko, avoiding being blown down by the strong wind, and then climbing up skillfully, not like the first time she came here, climbed here, and found this fact, which not only reassured us, but at the same time made us more worried.

It's not the first time I've been here...... Not for the first time...... Familiar with the climbing spots...... There are also skilled climbing skills...... That is, how often did Little Black Carbon do this before?

How much suffering this little body has endured before?

Not only the two of us, but even the mage who was carried in his hand, his eyes were slightly moist, and he searched the entire Dark Continent, and I am afraid that he would not be able to find a person of the same age who would suffer so much suffering like Xiao Hei Tan, these sufferings were enough to crush an adult, but she could bear it all with her small body.

Generally speaking, living in this environment, even if you don't starve to death, freeze to death and exhaustion, you will choose to commit suicide in despair.

Suddenly, this kind of thought even occurred in my heart, although it is unpleasant, just thinking about it will feel creepy, but it can't completely erase this thought, a child so small, the gray color of the eyes, clearly tells that the meaning of life has been lost, afraid of the world, and has endured such a great tribulation, in other words, for any person, I am afraid will not have nostalgia for this life......

So what is it that is supporting the little black charcoal to survive and persist until now in the hellish five years? This child of the age who should be spoiled in the arms of his parents, is his mind extremely complicated, or is it extremely simple?

This qiē is a mystery, and Jieluka and I suddenly discovered that if we want to really save the little black charcoal, compared to finding the dragon soul grass that is like a mouthful of purple souls, or suppressing the action of the painful worm, there seems to be a more important and priority task in front of everyone, that is, to understand the little black charcoal.

"Your Highness......"

Jeluka couldn't bear to see the little black charcoal clinging to the cliff again, and every time she climbed up, she was full of horror and horror, and buried her head in my arms, as if she was looking for something to rely on, and muttered with a crying voice.

"Don't worry, with me, Xiao Heitan will be fine."

Gently stroking the Jeroka in my arms, I stared at the movements of the little black charcoal, and if there was any mistake, I would immediately rush up and save her, even if it was to reveal my identity.

However, Xiao Hei Tan did not give us a chance to reveal our identity, although the process was full of thrills, like walking a tightrope in the sky, in the end, she still climbed to the top with skillful skills and perseverance.

Stepping on the ground, Xiao Hei Tan's body immediately rolled on it a few times, and between the silver hair blown by the cold wind, it could be seen that the half-covered pale little face was gasping for breath, the bloodstained fingers were lacking even the strength to move, and the squinted eyes also carried a trace of happiness for the rest of her life - not that she was not afraid, but there were more important feelings than fear, which drove her to do so.

After resting for a while, finally, Xiao Hei Tan's next action told us wordlessly the purpose of her painstaking climb up here this time.

At the top of the mountain, on a flat field, there is a leeward meadow, interspersed with a small patch of plainly colored iron wattle flowers.

In other words, in the Rog camp, these inconspicuous little flowers may not be looked at by others, but in the Fortress of the Demons, this desolate, almost grassless place, picking one of these iron thorn flowers can be worth the wages of digging a coal mine for several days.

In a place with a harsh environment like the Demon Fortress, just this small piece of grass, a cluster of simple flowers, is already a place to cleanse the soul, Xiao Hei Tan squatted beside the grass, muttering something, and his dim gaze seemed to have a hint of color, giving people a feeling...... Well, it seems to be communicating with these flowers.

Finally, with a soft word, she began to dig into the soil, but after picking only three flowers, she stopped, carefully put the iron wattle flower with the soil into her arms, came to the edge of the cliff, took a deep breath, and untied the rope around her waist.

Then, to our surprise and thrilling scene, the little black charcoal put the rope on the stone, grasped the rope with one hand, and rubbed the cliff with his bare feet, and actually slipped like this.

It's a 90-degree cliff, so can you really go down like skiing?

However, the answer is in front of our eyes, Xiao Heitan really did it, although the rope was not long enough, he could only stay at the foothold, tear off the rope, re-set it and continue to slide, so that he changed more than ten footholds in a row, and finally slid to the relatively flat foot of the mountain, leaving the stunned three people, trotting all the way back.

This...... This is also amazing, how to describe it, it is more incredible than seeing the antelope on the plateau, jumping freely between the cliffs, what kind of flexible skills do you have to do this kind of process, even if it is me, or any other adventurer, if you seal the ability to be an adventurer, you can't copy what Xiao Heitan did just now, you will only end up planting headlong under the cliff, rolling to pieces.

Unexpectedly, that thin body is full of dexterity and strength, but it is not surprising that in the past five years, Xiao Hei Tan has been doing the same thing as those adults, mining and pulling ore in the mine, but he was really taken aback by Xiao Hei Tan's means of going down the mountain......

Come back to your senses, the figure of the little black charcoal has disappeared into the night, we hurriedly followed, you know, this way, we have encountered sparse monsters, although the number is not much, but in this dark night, by any of them, for the little black charcoal is only left dead end, there will be no other possibility, therefore, from the foot of the mountain back to the mine home this section of the road, seems to be smooth and easy to walk, but the danger is not inferior to climbing the mountain.

The little black charcoal is dexterous and silent like a cat, which greatly reduces the danger of encountering monsters, and in such dark nights, many monsters are looking for a target from the sound of footsteps and the slight vibration of the ground.

In addition, the strong spiritual power of Xiao Hei Tan also helped a lot, and her keen sense of danger made her unconsciously avoid a lot of dangers, which was what we found all the way up.

With a thin and light body, there was no danger all the way back, and when we arrived less than two kilometers away from the mine, Jeluka and I did not intend to wait any longer, and told the mage to go back and use the Moon Wolf Illusion to transform into the appearance of Little Black Charcoal's parents, and immediately greeted him.

"Little Black Carbon"

In the distance, we eagerly waved and shouted as we rushed forward, even if we had been following and protecting in the dark, this burning feeling of wanting to meet immediately did not diminish in the slightest.

"Daddy...... Mom? ”

Little Black Carbon raised her head slightly in surprise, as if she couldn't believe that we would go so far to find her.

Jerouka rushed up quickly, and before Little Black Charcoal could speak, she pounced on it, and gave Little Black Carbon a blow to her sister, holding her petite and thin body tightly in her arms.

"You idiot, where did you go, let us worry to death"

With a choked voice, Jeroka tightened her tightly as if she wanted to punish Little Black Charcoal, and her moist eyes shed tears like a broken embankment.

Although I had followed her all the way and knew everything about her whereabouts and what she had done, Jeroka's crying voice and the hot tears that poured out of her eyes and seeped into the little black charcoal hair were definitely not made by me with illusion.

I also want to cry and be a bastard, why does this daughter like to make people cry so much, and make people feel uneasy?

"Mom...... It's dangerous here......"

Feeling the hot wetness transmitted from his hair to his cheeks, Xiao Heitan was stunned for a long time, and then said softly in a subtle voice full of inexplicable trembling.

"This is not the place to talk, let's go back and talk."

Drying the corners of my eyes, I patted Jeluka, took the little black charcoal from her hand, and carried it on her back.

"Wow...... Wow wow......"

Little black charcoal, who didn't seem to expect me to do this, lay on my back and let out a timid and subtle exclamation.

"Don't talk now, I'll talk about you when I get home."

Holding back the trembling in my words, I put my father's shelf out and said without refusal.

The owner of the thin body on his back seemed to be silent for a moment, and then, gradually, with careful and hesitant movements, as if trying something, the weight of the upper body was delivered to my back little by little......

I don't know if you like Xiao Hei Tan or not, I think it's very cute to have such a worrying and pitiful daughter......
