Chapter 141: Corrosive Acid
Lu Xiaoming took his people to the inn to eat and drink spicy food, and soon after, Ouyang and Mu Xiaolan also received the bounty from the fish-man merchant and walked out of the west gate of Ratchet Village.
Outside the west gate of Ratchet Village, two young men of similar age were sitting on the edge of West Avenue. They were chatting at length, about the master plan for future construction after the Earthstar Cataclysm and a beautiful woman who had just entered Ratchet Village.
"Big nephew, look, the fish-man in Ratchet Village is going to post a new announcement!" A young man immediately noticed that a fishman from the Ratchet Village was about to post an announcement, and he shouted excitedly.
"It's really a new announcement." Another young man also jumped up from the ground at once, and he quickly ran to the front of the bulletin board. "Fish-Man Village wants to buy timber in large quantities. Uncle, let's hurry up and inform the head of the regiment. ”
The two young men are members of the Holy Sword Knights, and the purpose of guarding the gate of Ratchet Village is to be the first to get the new movements of the Ratchet Village Fishmen. Originally, the Holy Sword Knights were just a team formed by a few people playing tickets, but they had made a fortune by getting the information that Ratchet Village had a high bounty on the steel-maned boar man's fangs in the first place, so they now pay great attention to Ratchet Village.
The two youths looked at each other and smiled, then ran hand in hand. Mu Xiaolan and Ouyang happened to come out of the Ratchet Village at this time
"Sister Lan, look, a new announcement has been posted in the Fish-Man Village." Scarface Jack is the first to notice the new announcement on the bulletin board after leaving Ratchet Village.
Mu Xiaolan heard the words and walked over.
……%……
Yang Yi saw Ouyang and Mu Xiaolan coming to the front of the grocery store after they walked out of Ratchet Village, and he asked the fish-man merchant, "How many centaur ears did those outsiders bring just now?" When was the first time they came to our Fish-Man Village? ”
"Village chief, they brought the left ears of fourteen centaurs this time. The first time I met them was just three days ago. Now that human woman has made it to our village's friendly list. The fish-man merchant replied.
"It has entered the friendly list, which means that it only took three days to complete the total transaction amount of a gold coin with Ratchet Village, could it be that this woman Mu Xiaolan also wants to do some benefits from Ratchet Village. Now that all the pioneer forces with some strength have gone to Gray Valley to make war money, she suddenly has an idea about Ratchet Village at this time, what is the idea of fighting? Yang Yi was thoughtful, he knew that Mu Xiaolan was a master who didn't see rabbits and didn't scatter eagles.
Mu Xiaolan is the goddaughter of the president of the Qin Kun Society, and she is actually in charge of the affairs of the Qin Kun Society in the world of Azeroth. She has a large number of trailblazers under her. Now this Mu Xiaolan did not take Qin Kunhui's people to Gray Valley to look for opportunities, but instead spent her energy on a fish-man village in the barren land, which had to make Yang Yi feel suspicious.
Yang Yi thought for a while and couldn't guess Mu Xiaolan's thoughts, and then the goblin wanderer Rizarex came to Ratchet Village again with his caravan.
"Yo, the head of the Ratchet Fishman Village, I'm so glad to see you." Rizarex shouted in his distinctive voice that was sharp and hoarse.
"It's a pleasure to meet you, my friend." Yang Yi greeted the goblin merchant familiarly.
"I heard that the Kokar centaurs are attacking Ratchet Village. You were all defeated, and you fishmen are amazing. Rizarex said in an exaggerated tone.
The goblin merchant was well-informed, and as soon as he heard that the centaurs had been defeated, he immediately took advantage of this rare opportunity to rush to Ratchet Village with a caravan.
"Hey, even if we defeated the centaurs, the fishmen of our Ratchet Village also suffered heavy casualties. You know, centaurs run fast. And there are good at bow and arrow attacks, which are very difficult to deal with. Yang Yi said.
"Yes, these centaurs are very powerful, otherwise they would not have been able to run rampant in the barren land. But Rizarex has good news here, I heard that the Orcs at the Crossroads are going to unite with the Minotaurs against the Centaur tribe of the Backwater Oasis. Rizarex said.
"Really?" Yang Yi was overjoyed. This is indeed good news for the Ratchet Village.
Yang Yi has always insisted on the idea that the sky is falling and there are tall people on top, and the Fish-Man Village is just a small force that has just risen in the barren land. Dealing with the troubled Kokar centaurs is the business of a great force in the barren lands like the orcs. If it weren't for the Kokar centaurs attacking Ratchet Village, Yang Yi would never take the initiative to provoke others at present.
"This time I heard that it will be led by Regosa. Death's Door personally leads the troops, he is the chief commander of the tribe's operation against the centaurs in the barren lands, and I think the centaur tribe in the backwater oasis is in trouble this time. Rizarex continued.
"That's great." Yang Yi said, he thought to himself that this time the tribe seemed to be going to move seriously, it was probably Bane. Bloodhoof convinces the orcs after returning to the crossroads.
Although the Minotaur of the tribe are peace-loving, they are not at all relentless in the face of hostile races such as centaurs, especially the young Bane. Bloodhoof is still in its prime.
Yang Yi chatted with the goblin merchant for a while and then began to count the goods.
This time, the goblin merchant still brought a lot of weapons and equipment, including more than a dozen shields, in addition to a few construction drawings, a dozen bags of materials, and many scattered goods.
Yang Yi asked the fish-man merchant to come and take charge of these transactions.
"My friend, our Fish-Man Village is short of shields right now, so the next time you come, please bring more big shields of ordinary quality." Yang Yi took out two gold coins as a deposit and handed them to the goblin merchant.
"No problem, my friend." The goblin merchant grinned at the sight of the coin, and he quickly reached out and grabbed it in the palm of his hand.
After counting the goods, the Fishman Merchant takes the Goblin Merchant to the grocery store, and the Goblin Merchant usually brings a large pile of Ratchet Tooth goods back to the crossroads to sell.
Yang Yi had in his hand a few construction drawings, all of which were Class 1 general architectural drawings, including shops such as prisons, jewelry workshops, pharmacies, and food and beverage stores. The development of a village requires many different buildings, and waiting for the construction drawings to be obtained by lottery is sometimes too late. Therefore, Yang Yi paid the goblin merchant to bring these drawings.
"A few of you, take these bags of wild thorny roots to the fish-man who grows mushrooms. And a few of you. Bring the rest of the bags and come with me. ”
After reading the construction drawings, Yang Yi put them away, and then he took a few fishmen to a cave in the village of Ratchethorn. This cave was dug by Yang Yi for the kobold slaves not long ago, and the cave is currently used as a makeshift pharmacy.
Swat, the fish-man nightcrawler, is refining poison in a dimly lit cave. Rogue professionals usually apply poison to their weapons to increase their lethality, and they are experts in drug making. The Fish-Man Nightcrawler is no exception, and Swart now crafts Damage Cream and Slow Cream These two ointments can be applied to weapons, so that if the blade of the plaster is applied to the enemy, it can poison the enemy if the blade of the plaster is applied. The Damage Plaster causes the injured enemy to take additional toxic damage, and the Slow Plaster's toxin slows down the movement of people. These are two very useful battle poisons.
Swat refines poison, and as a fish-man nightcrawler he is always on his guard, so he immediately notices Yang Yi's arrival.
"Village Chief." Swath stood up.
"Swat, the materials for making the poison have been brought." Yang Yi said.
Except for the morning when he goes to the Fishman Nightkin camp as a trainer, this swat usually hides in this dim cave almost the rest of the time, and even Yang Yi rarely sees him.
The fish-man who came with Yang Yi put several bags on the ground, which contained common poisons such as whiptail scorpion's venom, small poison sacs, and acid poison sacs. These poisons are all recorded in the manual given to Ratchet Village by Hebrim, the undead apothecary at the Crossroads.
The undead race's handbook for training low-level poison makers contained many strange poisons, many of which could not be purchased from merchants. Therefore, Yang Yi found several system recipes from the manual that required materials to facilitate the purchase, and then asked the goblin merchant to help purchase the goods.
Swart has a specialty in "making poisons (b)", so he is very good at making poisons, and can even make them more than he can. He also has the specialty of "comprehension (b)", which allows him to progress quickly when studying the Poison Maker Manual. He's now a junior drug maker.
After receiving the poison-making materials, Swat nodded and thanked Yang Yi, he had never spoken a few words to Yang Yi, the village chief, but he had always been grateful to Yang Yi for accepting him.
"Swat, recently our Fish-Man Village has to deal with the Lobster People, and we urgently need a lot of corrosive acid. You can refine this poison first. Yang Yi said to Swat.
"Yes." Swah nodded his head.
Yang Yi had already thought about it, and the lobster man relied on the shrimp shell to protect his body, so he was able to go on a rampage. However, the shrimp shell can withstand ordinary blades, but it cannot stop the highly corrosive acid, so he plans to try to use a poison called corrosive acid recorded in the undead manual to deal with the lobster people.
"Also, the slowdown plaster also needs to be refined more." Yang Yi said again.
"Yes." Swart replied simply.
Yang Yi suddenly remembered those Kokar centaurs who came and went like the wind, the centaurs galloped freely on the battlefield with the advantage of running speed, and if they were dealt with with a slowing plaster, they might be able to get good results.
Swart is taciturn and likes to be alone, which may be one of the reasons why he is a fish-man nightcrawler. Yang Yi didn't stay long, and after he finished explaining the matter, he left this pharmaceutical cave with a few fishmen.
After leaving the cave, Yang Yi came to the place where mushrooms are cultivated in Ratchet Village, which is a gravel pit that covers a large area under the cliff wall of the Thorn Ridge Heights. Originally, this gravel pit was overgrown with wild grass and shrubs, but now those wild grass and shrubs have been cleared by the fishmen in the village.
When Yang Yi came to this gravel pit, he found that there were many arm-thick thorn vines growing in the huge gravel pit, and these thorny vines were planted by the steel-maned boar people.
Yang Yi made a deal with the wild boar man Tuya with food, and one of the contents of the deal was to let Tuya send some wild boar people who knew how to breed mushrooms to come to Ratchet Village to teach the fishman to breed mushrooms. The Boar Man kept his promise, and he soon sent eight Steelmaned Boar People to the Fish-Man Village.
These eight steel-maned boar people found a big problem after coming to Ratchet Village, although they knew how to grow mushrooms, but in the past in the Thorn Jungle, the wild boar people completely relied on the experience passed down from generation to generation to grow mushrooms, so after coming to Ratchet Village and seeing the completely different environment of the Fish-Man Village in the Thorn Jungle, these wild boar people didn't know what to do.
After Yang Yi knew the situation, he immediately came up with a solution to the problem, his idea was very simple, didn't he just need the environment of the thorn jungle, just plant a thorn jungle in the rattle tooth village.
As a result, the gravel pit in the village of Ratchet Tooth against the cliff of the Thorn Ridge Heights was planted with wild boar people thorn vines.
Seeing Yang Yi coming, a fishman immediately ran over, and he was followed by a wild boar man.
"Village chief, the wild thorny root grass has been received." Fishman said.
Yang Yi nodded to the fishman, and then he looked at the boar man.
The Boar Man didn't take the Ratchet Village casually, this Boar Man was a steel-maned earth diviner who had a knack for growing mushrooms. The steelmane divination master is a mage profession of the boar people, and this boar man also has expertise in negotiation and planting, and is a talent of the wild boar people.
"Chief of the Wormtooth Fishman Village, we are preparing for mushroom farming." The steel-maned earth master said respectfully to Yang Yi.
Not far away, a group of fish-men and wild boar people are busy in the gravel pit, mixing ragweed with a small amount of wild spiny root grass, and then burying it in shallow soil to rot and ferment, which will later be used by the steel-maned boar people to grow mushrooms.
"In addition to red-spotted mushrooms, what other edible mushrooms do you steel-maned boar people usually grow?" Yang Yi asked the steel-maned earth diviner.
"Also grow some porous mushrooms and poison cap mushrooms." The steelmane soothsayer replied.
"Poison Cap Mushroom? Isn't this a poisonous mushroom? Yang Yi asked.
"The poison of the poison cap mushroom is hidden in the spores, and as long as the spores are removed and roasted over fire, they can be eaten." The steelmane soothsayer explained.
"If this poisonous cap mushroom is eaten without being processed properly, it will be miserable." Yang Yi said.
"The spores are not cleaned, and eating them will pull my stomach for two or three days." The steel-maned earth diviner said.
"If you pull your stomach for two or three days in a row, you can't pull it until your legs and stomach are weak, and I'm afraid you won't even be able to walk at that time." Yang Yi said with a smile, the life of the wild boar people is not easy.
"Village chief, what kind of mushroom should we plant first? Is it a red-spotted mushroom? The fish-man interjected.
"You can see which mushroom is easy to grow and has a good harvest." Yang Yi said. The main purpose of growing mushrooms in Ratchet Village is to provide food for the fishmen in the village, as long as it can fill the stomachs of the fishmen in the village, and the type of mushroom does not matter.
The matter of cultivating mushrooms was handed over to the fishman and the steel-maned wild boar man in the village, and Yang Yi couldn't help, he just watched from the sidelines.
A few minutes later, the old blind eye also came to the gravel pit.
"Lord, something big has happened. The fishmen sent out by the village to keep an eye on the Kokar centaurs returned to report that the Horde's army had come to the vicinity of the Stavestite Oasis, and it was estimated that they were about to start an attack on the centaurs of the Staggard Oasis. The old blind man reported.
"Oh? That's great news. We don't care about them in Ratchet Village, let them fight to the death, and it's best to never be able to tell the winner. Yang Yi said with a smile.
Yang Yi didn't want the tribe's army to wipe out the Kokar Centaur tribe in the Backwater Oasis at once, in which case the Backwater Oasis would fall into the hands of the tribal camp. If the Tribal faction had established a stronghold in a backwater oasis not far from Ratchet Village, it would not necessarily be a good thing for Ratchet Village. (To be continued.)
