Chapter Eighty-Five: Assignments
Returning to the cave after a two-day absence, looking at the huge rock at the entrance of the cave, Wen Long couldn't help but feel a little emotional. After all, the last time they left here, there were only Wenlong and Catherine alone and a cat, and it was only two days apart, and when they came back, there were two more Ailu cats.
"I really don't know what it will be like in the future. If you want to build a large manor around this cave, it will definitely be a big project, and if it grows, there will definitely be more Ailu cat helpers in the future......" Wenlong couldn't help but think to himself.
So Wenlong said. "Hey, woman, move this stone out of the way, we'll have to go hunting later, there's not much time for us to delay, meow."
"Get out of the way?" Before Catherine could make a move, Big Ash and Little Ash on the side showed surprised looks.
Big Ash said: "Lord Hero, forgive the little talker, how can you let a beauty like Miss Catherine do such a rough job?" And it's such a big rock, there's no way to move it with the strength of one person, meow? ”
Ash also said, "That's right, this stone is so big, although my brother and I are considered strong men among the Elu cats, but even with the strength of our two cats, there is no way to move it...... Meow. ”
"Really? Actually, I think the same as you, but there are some things that I should take a good look at...... Meow. Wen Long shrugged his shoulders and said that he didn't bother to explain, because there were some things that there was really no way to explain.
Catherine walked to the door of the cave, then bent down slightly, dragged the bottom of the boulder with both hands, and then lifted the boulder with a single force. Then he took two more steps to the side and lowered the boulder. At this moment, the cave behind the boulder was completely revealed.
"Alright, the stone has been removed." Catherine said.
"This, this, this...... Miss Catherine is also a great heroine! It's admirable, meow! Big Ash couldn't help but admire.
And Xiao Ash on the side said: "The hero's partner is really a heroine, it's really great to be able to serve the two, meow!" ”
"Okay, stop talking about it, remember you're going to work, Meow." Wenlong couldn't help but remind Big Ash and Little Ash.
"Yes, Hero! Meow! As soon as Wen Long spoke, Big Ash and Little Ash immediately stood in awe.
So Wenlong began to arrange tasks for Big Ash and Little Ash.
Wenlong first told Big Ash and Little Ash that they could live here first, after all, although the cave was simple, it still had all the basic utensils inside. Big Ash and Little Ash are very grateful for this.
Of course, Wenlong also gave orders to Big Ash and Little Ash, asking them to guard the cave and not let anyone else approach. After all, Wenlong still left some materials in the cave, and these materials were planned to be sold by Wenlong after the trade route from Milard Village to Mejepoltan was reopened. In addition, there were some tools that had just been purchased from the village of Millard in the morning, and because they were not needed for the time being, they were piled up in the cave first.
In addition to guarding the cave, Wenlong also asked Big Ash and Little Ash to be responsible for reclaiming a large piece of wasteland under the cave during this time, which was to be planted with various crops in the future.
"Don't worry, Hero, we're done! Meow! As he spoke, Ash had already picked up his hoe.
"Don't worry, Lord Hero, we used to be from the countryside, and farming or something is our forte, meow!" Ash said.
"Well, that's good, meow." Wen Long nodded with satisfaction.
In line with the principle of employing people without suspicion, Wenlong gave Big Ash and Little Ash the greatest trust, of course, this is also related to Wenlong's special affection for Ailu Cat who pushes the cat cart.
After all, when playing the game, when any hunter fell exhausted from being attacked by monsters, it was this kind of Eru cat who pushed the cat cart to rescue the hunter from the monster's minions, and their brave sacrifice spirit is absolutely unforgettable for every hunter.
This is naturally no exception to Wenlong.
So not long after they met, Wenlong arranged for Big Ash and Little Ash to live in the cave, and let them be responsible for guarding the materials inside, and he didn't worry that Big Ash and Little Ash would do anything about guarding and stealing from themselves.
"Then, it's time to go again, meow!"
So, after arranging the work for Big Ash and Little Ash, Wenlong took Catherine on the road again. Although the target of this hunt is also in the Xiaofeng Valley, which is not too far from the cave where Wenlong is now, Wenlong has spent a lot of time since morning, and if he wants to deal with the prey before sunset, then the time is still quite urgent.
"Heroes, and Miss Catherine, I wish you both a good journey! Meow! ”
Even though Wen Long and Catherine had already walked a considerable distance, they could still hear the voices of Big Ash and Little Ash coming from a distance......
After leaving the cave and heading west, it took about an hour to go deep into the valley of Xiaofeng. The trees have become denser here, and some beasts that are not usually easy to see have become more common...... In this way, it is noticeably more inaccessible than the previous fringe areas.
"Wow, Mr. Cat, look over there, there's a waterfall! What a waterfall! Suddenly, Catherine's voice sounded, and Wen Long looked in the direction of Catherine's finger, and sure enough, he saw a huge waterfall falling from the mountain wall, like a silver-white canvas.
"This is probably the most famous spot in Xiaofeng Valley...... A large waterfall that is famous for its large and wide drop, and according to the information provided by the Hunter Guild, the prey we are going to hunt this time should be around here often, Meow. ”
"That's right, Mr. Cat," Catherine said excitedly, "but in addition to this attraction, it seems that there is a famous cave nearby, which is also a good attraction." ”
"Hmm...... That's true...... "Although Wen Long has been chatting with Catherine about some things, his eyes and ears have begun to concentrate, always paying attention to all the changes around him.
"Since the Great Monster Bird is around here, according to intelligence, it is necessary to be vigilant...... Meow. ”
At this time, Wen Long suddenly heard a strange cry, looked up, and sure enough, he found a big bird falling from the sky.
"It's a monster bird!" Wen Long recognized the identity of the big bird at a glance, and judging from the posture of the big monster bird, the target of the big monster bird seemed to be a running elf deer on the ground.
The elf deer also seemed to sense the approaching danger and began to run as hard as it could, but the speed of the big monster bird seemed to be faster, and a swoop down, it completely pressed the elf deer under him, and at the same time, the sharp claws easily tore apart the skin and muscles of the elf deer, and soon, this dexterous elf fawn became food under the beak of the big monster bird.
