Chapter 42: Faith
The sun rises in the east, bringing a strong smell of wine, and the morning breeze spreads this infinite drunkenness to every corner of the wilderness.
The Park family caravan has been ready to leave at the entrance of the village, about forty years old, the good-looking chief Wang He took the list from front to back to carefully check the goods on the car for the last time, this time there are not only all kinds of wine, medicinal herbs, vegetables and fruits and other specialties, but also more than 20 cars of food to offset taxes, Park Haoyu followed behind him to play the role of an assistant.
Since the last time I came back, I was attacked by the orcs and injured a lot of guys, so this time the caravan attracted more new members to join, and many of them saw off their relatives and friends at the entrance of the village.
The vindication and Shi Yuanyan were also mixed in the farewell crowd, one of the pairs was a thorny rose in the border village, and the other was a new divine hero, which was naturally very eye-catching, and everyone glanced at them intentionally or unintentionally.
The defender looked at the green and yellow field in the distance, and wondered if the road under the feet of the hero of divine power was just like this field, which was both unknown and full of infinite possibilities.
His eyes shifted to the proprietress in front of him, and at this moment her cloth skirt was more simple and elegant.
The defender knows that he owes her a promise when he leaves, but now that even he doesn't know what the future holds, how can he promise others?
After being silent for a long time, he still decided to tell the truth, took a deep breath and said, "Boss, we ......"
Shi Yuanyan waved her hand, obviously knowing what he was going to say, she interrupted him with a smile and said, "Don't say it, let your aunt say it for you." ”
After a pause, he continued: "My aunt has known that there will be a day since the first day with you. But my aunt has never regretted it, because the days with you are the happiest days in my aunt's life. Your appearance made my aunt recognize herself and what she really wanted. ”
After a slight pause, he said: "You can go out boldly and boldly, you don't have to remember your aunt." Aunt has decided to be the assistant to the village chief from today, and will be responsible for guiding the teenagers to promote to the gods in the future. I believe ......"
"Huh?!"
Hearing the words "novice assistant", the defender was stunned on the spot, and he didn't hear a word about what the proprietress said behind him.
Border Village ...... Newbie Assistant ...... Ah Yan ......
These three keywords are intertwined in his mind, Ah Yan is actually the novice assistant, and she did it because of me!
At this time, Shi Yuanyan had already taken out a pair of brand-new deerskin boots from the bamboo basket she was carrying and handed them to him.
These boots are dark brown, the shaft is less than 3 inches above the ankle, and there is a tassel-like strap on each inch of the back, which not only controls the elasticity but also looks very chic and beautiful.
While taking the boots, the vindicator held the proprietress with his backhand. Her usual thoughtfulness, gentleness and understanding made him abandon his hesitation and strengthen his faith and determination for the future.
The domineering took the proprietress in his arms and said resolutely: "No matter how far away the boundaries of the region are, the distance between you is in the heartbeat...... Someday, I'll come back in these shoes and marry you! ”
Shi Yuanyan was intoxicated by his domineering and gentle promise, and fell softly into his arms. It took a long time to recover some physical strength, and he gasped: "There is a new reason in life, and the high and the low are not exceeded." Auntie will take care of herself and wait for you to come back! ”
After speaking, he broke free from his embrace, stood on tiptoe, pecked him on the mouth, and turned to walk towards the village.
"Whew!"
This sudden kiss made the crowd scream, and everyone was surprised that the "thorn rose" was quietly picked. Moreover, at this moment, the boss's cheeks are like fire, her jade face is shining, and she is incredibly beautiful, and everyone's eyes are naturally attracted to her.
Shi Yuanyan immediately had an induction, and in the face of everyone's onlookers, she resumed her pungent nature, pinched her waist with one hand and fingers with the halberd with the other, and scolded with a teapot-shaped smile: "What is there to see?" The old lady just likes the defenders, who of you can exterminate the half-orc clan in Xishan, the old lady will also give you shoes and kisses! ”
The onlookers all shifted their eyes in disagreement, but they were all slandering in their hearts: Are you stupid to us, who in the border village doesn't know that the orc race in Xishan has been exterminated!
After the defender saw the graceful figure of the proprietress disappear at the entrance of the village, he turned around and saw Park Haoyu standing not far away looking at him with a wicked smile.
Hurriedly walked a few steps, reached out and put his hand on his shoulder, showed a smile that all men understand, and asked, "How does Wang Xiaomei taste?" ”
After experiencing women, Park Haoyu's face gradually thickened, and he teased: "The younger brother is just a buddy, but Brother Wei is the boss lady, this should be asked by the younger brother, see what is the difference between two women in a tavern in bed?" ”
The two hooked shoulders and whispered, bursting out with "hehe" lewd laughter from time to time. Suddenly, Park Haoyu seemed to think of something, and changed color and said: "Brother Wei, when I checked the goods just now, I found that Xiaopang's mood seemed to be a little wrong, I talked to him, and he ignored me."
Rotten!
Yesterday, at the end, he went to confess to Park Nima, and it seems that he failed!
"Take me to him."
After speaking, under the guidance of Park Haoyu, he went to a truck loaded with grain.
At this time, Park Myung-hee gave the order to set off, and the entire caravan of more than 80 carriages and 100 people left the border village and advanced to the northeast.
The sky covered the earth like a sapphire, and the water of the tintiny stream and spring in the field was also reflected in the blue.
The grass is yellow, the leaves are yellow, the wind steps on the sparse forest and makes a "rustling" sound, and the golden fallen leaves are like beautiful butterflies flying in the air.
Humming the folk song "The Traveler", the Mites drove their trucks through the picturesque autumn fields.
Folk songs are unique songs with national colors.
This is the case with this "Traveler".
The lyrics are: "In the past, I went back, the grass and trees were beautiful; Now I think about it, the rain and snow are falling. ”
Something to the effect: "When I first left home, the grass and trees were verdant and the wind blew; Now on the way back, rain and snow are flying all over the sky. ”
The lyrics use contrasts to edit and integrate the "present-past" of time, the "grass-rain" of phenology, and the "past-future" of life, creating a vivid picture of the purpose.
In just four sentences, it seems to be plain, savored carefully, but it is full of strong artistic appeal.
The same "I", but there is a "past and present".
The same road, but there is a difference between "grass and trees" and "rain and snow".
And all of this is generated in the life changes of "toward" and "come", vividly depicting the difficulties of travelers away from home and the feelings of homesickness.
Duan Shaohui was lying on his back on the roof of a truck full of wheat grains, a pair of slender little eyes staring at the sky blankly, there was a kind of cone pain in his body caused by being cut by a sharp blade or eaten by a fierce beast, and his broken thoughts supported his body like a walking corpse, and he couldn't feel the slightest information from the outside world, he just wanted to leave the border village as soon as possible.
Park Haoyu climbed into the truck, sat next to him, and said with concern: "Little fatty, what are you doing lying here?" ”
"You guys still talk so out of tune!"
The vindication who came up immediately after him spouted, "What's wrong with lying down? Isn't it stranger that there are no women down there, and that men are lying on their stomachs? ”
After a pause, he said, "A lovelorn man should lie down and look up at the sky!" ”
"Your consciousness is that he and my sister ......"
"Almost, you go to the first car, I'll accompany him here."
“……”
The lovelorn man only needs spirits and Mo doesn't care, the defender knows this, he took out two jars of soju, patted open the mud seal, one jar was placed next to Duan Shaohui, and the other jar he held Ying and "The Traveler" and savored it.
Duan Shaohui smelled the aroma of wine, so he naturally picked up the wine jar and poured it in a big gulp.
This kind of soju of more than 20 degrees is very vicious like an assassin, so that after drinking it, it feels unremarkable, even if it is binge drinking, it is only a little stimulating, so it accumulates to a certain amount, and when people still think it is just like this, it will instantly attack people's nerves and achieve a fatal effect.
At this time, the defender and Duan Shaohui were like this, the defender was better, he drank slowly and just felt groggy, but Duan Shaohui was in a hurry, and now he has begun to talk nonsense.
The defender got the answer from these drunken mantras, which was roughly the same as his guess, and last night Duan Shaohui went up according to the "primary training" and said, "I like you".
As a result, she was taken to a remote corner and told that "you are actually a good person", but the woman only wants to do a good job as a teacher at the moment, and does not want to think about anything else.
After that, Duan Shaohui's first love ended before it began.
Brother!
If the first thing she says is "You're such a bad guy," it's a matter for both of you. It's a pity that people say "you're a good person".
When the wine came up, the vindication was also confused.
……
In the early afternoon, the caravan made its way through the wilderness into the Beechcraft Forest, and the vindicators were awake at this time.
In front of him was a forest avenue that could accommodate a dozen wagons side by side, and although the road had been overgrown with weeds after the war, it was generally flat.
The last time he looked up information in the Pujia bookstore, he had seen that the Kingdom of Hagena had spent more than 300 years to build several large-scale projects in order to cope with the war with foreign races.
The largest of these is a man-made canal that runs through the entire province of Beachy and connects the seas on both sides of the continent, including the Byway Forest.
After the end of the war, the military route was changed to a commercial route, which not only promoted the circulation of goods and stimulated economic growth, but also strengthened the ties between the local government and the central government, ensuring the stability and unity of the province of Beach, which was also one of the benefits of the war.
The defender looked at this endless, endless, forest avenue built entirely by ordinary conscripts, and his heart was full of shock.
Although he is a hero of divine power, he has to admit that he is actually insignificant in front of a large number of ordinary people.
The convoy marched at a constant speed along the trade road, passing through the reckless primeval forest, where hundred-year-old cedar, birch, and pine trees on both sides of the road stood tall and near, and the roar of forest beasts was endless.
The edge of the forest was relatively safe and there was no danger, so the members of the caravan were relatively relaxed, and they walked more than 60 miles during the day.
At dusk, the caravan camped to rest.
Wang He, the head manager, divided all the guys into two groups according to the new and old collocation, and the old with the new.
One group is led by Park Haoyu, who is responsible for drinking and feeding horses and livestock, lighting a fire and cooking.
The other group he personally led and was responsible for scouting the surroundings, cutting down the branches of antler-shaped trees and erecting them on the outskirts of the caravan to act as the first line of defense, and the carriages were also surrounded in a circle to act as a second layer of defense, which could buy everyone enough time to deal with the monsters that attacked at night.
These new recruits are all carefully selected by special people, retired soldiers with strong physique, and the dantian has been cultivated to the stage of refining qi and transforming gods, and can simply control internal qi to increase their own defense and attack power.
They also received corresponding field training when they were in the army, and they were all from border villages, so they were familiar with each other and communicated smoothly, so they cooperated with the experienced old members quite tacitly, and there was no chaos.
By the time all the preparations were completed, night had fallen.
Everyone sat around a few bonfires, and Wang He gathered more than 30 new buddies around him very kindly, and patiently explained what dangers might be encountered along the way while eating dry food, reminding everyone to pay attention to safety.
Vindicators and Park Ho-woo sat around with a dozen men in their thirties. He wanted to take the opportunity of the meal to get in touch with Xiyuan, but unfortunately they didn't get off the carriage at all, and even Park Mingxi went back to the car to dine with the soldier surnamed Dong after making a round.
However, chatting with these simple and cheerful guys, the defenders did not feel bored, because they were the first batch of people to follow Park Mingxi to run the business road, and they were naturally quite knowledgeable and occasionally had witty words.
On the one hand, they want to start a family and live a stable life, and on the other hand, they are full of inseparable emotions for more than ten years of caravan life, and the contradiction between the conscious and the subconscious is full.
After a night without incident, the caravan marched forward in full gear the next morning, and in this way, it stayed overnight, and gradually penetrated deep into the Beach Forest at a speed of 80 miles a day.
……
……
On the afternoon of the seventh day, the caravan came to a natural lake about 4 kilometers in a circle, the name of this lake is "Liuli Lake", which is the largest water supply point on the way of the caravan, and it is also a sign that the caravan is more than halfway through, and at the current pace, it will be able to walk out of the Beach Forest in another seven days.
Although it was not yet time to rest, Park Myung-hee still ordered to replenish the water source and camp to rest, to resume the hardships of all the members of the caravan for several days, and to prepare to bypass this lake in one breath tomorrow.
These days, the defender has been sitting on the roof of the truck with Duan Shaohui, who is awake and drunk, drunk and awake, during which Park Haoyu came to visit the two, hoping that the two would go to the car to rest, but was rejected by the defender, he felt that the position on the high truck is very good now, not only has a wide field of vision, but also can react as soon as possible when encountering a monster sneak attack, which is the lesson he summed up in the previous upgrade process.
In addition, two days ago, during a monster attack on a caravan, he also watched a "martial arts movie".
At that time, more than 20 "forest snowmen" attacked the caravan, and this "forest snowman" lived in the depths of the Beach Forest, their whole bodies were covered with long yellow hair, and their 1-meter-long noses swayed from side to side on their chests, which made people very uncomfortable to look at.
Dong Yi on the first carriage reacted quickly, and immediately rushed up to block this group of "forest snowmen", and then Xi Yuan also jumped off the second carriage and joined the battle.
Don't look at the "Forest Snowman" as if the words grew to the face is very ugly, but the sharp claws have a high attack power is terrifying, and the empty palm also left a deep paw print on the giant tree, seeing the caravan guys in a cold sweat, secretly wondering if the leather armor on their bodies can resist the claw of this cracked stone monument.
Fortunately, there are not many opponents, and the defense is not high, Dong Yi, who was embarrassed to deal with it, after attracting the attention of the other party, shouted loudly and used the "attack and kill swordsmanship", and the slashing knife drew a dazzling white light in the air from top to bottom, and cut the back of a "forest snowman" on the right side of the slanted shoulder strap into two sections, followed by tiptoe twisting his waist, rushing out of the encirclement from here like lightning, and finding a ten-surrounded tree to lean on, which relieved the pressure of being besieged.
"Attack and Kill Swordsmanship" is another divine skill that warriors can learn after "Basic Swordsmanship", the principle of which is to apply the internal qi in the dantian to the weapon through the imprint, so as to increase the attack power of the weapon, and the whole process takes 4 seconds. Depending on the level of cultivation, the attack hit rate and destructive power will be increased accordingly.
Level 1: Start training at level 19 and increase attack by 5%
Level 2: Start training at level 22 and increase your attack by 10%
Level 3: Start training at level 24 and increase attack by 20%
Xiyuan has been wandering around the periphery because of the equipment, and he didn't give the "Forest Snowman" a chance to join the circle at all, and the Shura in the palm of his hand chased after him by inertia, and in the whirring, the galloping serial attack killed the "Forest Snowman" with a gurgling scream, but there was no power to fight back.
The light armor in the shape of a sky-blue slit skirt tightly wrapped her delicate jade body like a fitting skin, and the slender pink legs looming at the slit made her every attack pose so vibrant, fierce and seductive.
The two warriors unanimously chose the most advantageous way to fight, and it only took ten minutes to destroy all the "forest snowmen" like cutting melons and vegetables.
The vindicators also figured out their equipment configuration through this battle, and although they didn't know the specific attributes without touching, they could analyze the general attributes just by looking at the appearance.
Dong Yi is a defensive warrior.
Helmet: Magic Helmet, Defense 0-1, Demon King 1-1, Wear Level 14
Armor: Heavy armor (male), defense 4-7, magic 2-3, level 22
Weapons: Horse Chopper, Attack 5-15, Wear Level 20
Necklace: Devil's Necklace, Attack 2-0, Wear Level 17
Rings (pair): Black crystal rings, attack 0-2, level 20 required
Bracelet (pair): Sturdy gloves, defense 0-2, level 18 required
After adding its own attributes, its total attack is 10-23, its total defense is 4-13, and its total demon is 3-4, except for heavy armor, all of these equipment are equipment below level 20, which shows that Dong Yi is not satisfactory in Beach City.
Fate is an offensive warrior. Her armor and the Ring Vindicator have come into contact with each other, and they are all small and superb products that have a little more attack than normal equipment.
Helmet: Skeleton helmet, defense 2-3, requires attack damage of 30 to wear
Armor: Light Armor (Female), Defense 3-3, Demon Guardian 1-2, Attack 0-1, Wear Level 11
Weapons: Shura, attack 0-20, equip level 22
Necklace: Blue Jade Necklace, Attack 2-2, Wear Level 23
Rings (pair): Skull rings, attack 0-4, need to reach 30 attack to wear
Bracelet (pair): Grim Reaper's Gauntlet, attack 1-2, level 22 required
The appearance of Shura is very close to that of Rakshasa and it is also a double-edged axe, but the subtleties are not delicate enough and slightly rough.
Her total attack is 7-39 or above, her total defense is 5-7, and her total demon is 1-2. is a warrior who gives up defense and pursues the upper limit of attack power.
The vindication guessed that her equipment in other positions should also be the best for attack. Therefore, just looking at her equipment can discourage many men, and there is still a long way to go to conquer her.
