In the very center of this semi-natural, semi-artificial confined space, a large tree grows.

The tree is not tall, but it is very thick and very dense.

It was so thick that a few people couldn't hug it, and its canopy was so dense that it almost covered the sky.

Looking up for a long time, looking through the gaps in the branches and leaves, I vaguely saw some gray-brown colors that did not blend into this green shade.

Untie the big knife and hand it to Yang Jiao, I used both hands and feet, along the main trunk, all the way up.

After a few rubs, he burrowed into the dense canopy.

Looking at the canopy under the tree and looking at the canopy inside the canopy are very different feelings.

The former can only look at the surface, and the latter can only know what is inside.

In the midst of the canopy, I couldn't help but sigh, "This looks intricate, the canopy of foliage is not as dense as it looks." ”

Except for a dozen or so essential trunks, the rest were all new branches and leaves, which could not stop my climbing speed.

In a few leaps, I scurried to the spot I had just seen the gray-brown creature.

It was a litter of cute-looking creatures, three in all, one large and two slightly smaller, all with fluffy gray-white wings and hawks' beaks, barking at me non-stop.

These three little things, the eldest one is about the size of my palm, and they are also the most cheerful, not afraid of life at all, kicking four tender calves, and begging for food from me with wings.

Naturally, I can't feed it anything, let alone feed it, I can't even touch it, and who knows if the griffin will peck to death a child who has been touched like a sparrow.

I don't want to destroy an innocent creature in a hurry.

Sliding slowly down the main trunk, I nodded at the others: "It's indeed its lair up there, which of you wants to go up and have a look?" ”

As a result, none of the three of them wanted to go up to see it, Godot felt that it was not necessary, Yang Jia did not dare, and Taylor said that he had seen it, which was not unusual.

So I turned to the griffin, apologized to it, and led the three of them out of the bush.

Out of the bushes, Yang Jiao asked me, "Lion...... How are the griffin's cubs, do they look fierce? ”

"It's cute," I said.

"Really?" He was amazed: "I didn't expect the cub of the fierce and terrible griffin to be able to get along with the cute." ”

"A lot of creatures are cute when they're young," I said, "but when they grow up, they become fierce and fierce, and of course, some of them become very two." ”

Speaking of which, the head of the husky pops up in my mind.

"Captain," Godot, who was walking behind on the right, asked aloud: "Where are we going next?" ”

"Huh?" I stopped in confusion and turned to look at him, "What do you mean?" ”

Godot pointed to the sky.

I looked up and saw that the sun was already in the west, and it was almost dusk.

Lowering my head and thinking for a moment, I waved my hand and said, "Turn back." ”

"Where to go?" Godot asked.

"Griffon's Lair."

The jungle at night is dangerous, like a large mouth dormant in the shadows, ready to swallow the weary traveler.

For safety, I had to turn to the strongest man in the jungle for help.

When we stepped into the griffon's territory again, the huge griffon, instead of attacking us immediately, turned its back to the lair and looked at me warily.

"Please let us stay here for the night," I said, gesturing to the darkening sky, "and we'll leave here tomorrow at dawn." ”

I said it very clearly, and the griffon heard it very clearly, but it was clear that it didn't want us to live here.

After a moment's hesitation, I handed my hand to Godot: "Give me a bag." ”

Godot silently unfastened his backpack, took out a bag of wine, and handed it to me.

As the griffon watched, I unplugged the sac and took a sip, then handed it over to the wine-scented sac, saying, "This is a thank you gift." ”

The griffin stared at me, seeing that I didn't have any discomfort, and then carefully touched the wine bag a few times, and after making sure that there was no doubt, he pinched the wine bag and brought it to the front, and the mouth of the bag was facing the eagle's beak, and poured it into it.

Compared to the griffin's huge body, this bag of wine is nothing, but it has never drunk alcohol, but it is obsessed with the slightly sour sweetness of the taste buds.

Dropping the sac, the griffon stretched out its great claws again, and the meaning couldn't be more obvious: a bag of wine was not enough.

Under Taylor's distressed gaze, the griffin drank four more bags of wine, then nodded in satisfaction, and flew back to the lair.

"Bastard, you dare to think that you would bribe it with my wine" Taylor, who had lost five bags of wine in a row, complained in my ear in distress.

"Alright, old man," I comforted him, "and I will double the compensation for you when I get back." ”

"Can the wine you go back with the same wine as the wine you have around now?" Taylor counted the wine bags in his backpack and said distressedly: "The wine around me is a precious product now, drink one bag, one less bag!" ”

Seeing his old face twitching, I couldn't help but sigh and said, "Then what do you say?" ”

"At least five...... No, tenfold, uh, at least twenty times as much as I am! ”

Looking at the old man's painful expression, I couldn't bear it, nodded and agreed, "No problem." ”

After dinner, the tent was set up, the fire was extinguished, and I lay down in my sleeping bag, quietly thinking about what had happened today.

First the fire-breathing monitor lizard, then the giant wolf bigger than a bear, then the dwarf who lured his enemies with tricks, and finally the griffin that dominated the side, like the king of the island.

Thinking about it this way, the journey was really exciting, especially the battle with the griffin, the hot and exciting scene made my mood change several times in an instant.

With such a fighting griffin, if I can catch a few of them and raise them as mascots, it should be good.

"That's a good idea," said the Great Sword, "even if you don't let them fight, it's a good idea to just be a mount." ”

"But......" Da Tai Dao changed his words, "are you really capable of taming it?" ”

"I don't know," I shook my head, "but even if I can't tame it, someone should be able to tame it." ”

"Give an example," the big sword asked.

"This ......"

"If you can't give an example, I knew it would be like this," the big sword joked, "When you kid is whimsical, you always forget reality, if the griffin can really be tamed, do you think those royal nobles will not tame one to ride and play?" ”

Seeing that I didn't squeak, Da Taidao continued: "Those royal nobles can be said to be high-powered, nobles and rich, and they have luxury beauties and jewelry, what do they lack the most? It's fame! What would it be like to be able to ride a griffin on a griffin at an unprecedented event like the Japanese Wind Championship? ”

"Mighty, domineering, eye-catching, and can also improve your own fame by a lot, right?" Da Taidao's tone was quite fanatical, as if he had been stimulated, and then, it changed its words: "But why didn't anyone do this? That's the crux of the matter, and it's another answer to the question - that's because no one can tame a griffon, or rather, a griffon, a species that can't be tamed. ”

I pondered for a long time, and then said, "But Taylor said before that someone once took a griffin to the adventurer's base to test their stats. ”
