Section 3 Fruit wine
"Kozan Bloodwolf, is that your name?" Iron Slag asked the stout old man who was cutting the leg of a deer as he ate the fruit. β²β΄ topβ²β΄β²β΄β²β΄,
"Hmm." Kozan replied without looking back. This air-dried deer leg is already hard, and coupled with the cold environment, the deer leg is as hard as a piece of iron. However, he holds a large kitchen knife and every time he cuts it, he is able to cut out a complete flake.
"Is your last name Blood Wolf?" Iron Slag asked curiously. Because it's not like a surname, it's like a name.
"I was an orphan who originally had no surname, Blood Wolf Field my teacher, and after the final battle, I took his first name as my surname." Kozan said.
"Why don't you use his last name, Cozanfield." Iron Slag gestured, "You see, my name is Iron Slag, and my adoptive father is called Iron Old Man, so my surname is Iron and my name is Slag." β
"Is Iron Old Man a name?" Kozan stopped the knife and asked.
"I guess that's what the townspeople call him." Iron slag answered with some certainty.
"Well, that's what the name is." Kozan turned around and continued to cut the deer leg, cutting as he went, "Field, like Nolseth, is an ancient surname that must be used with the permission of the current patriarch, and it was too late then, so I took the teacher's name as my surname. β
"Hmm......" Iron Slag nodded, then changed the subject, and continued to ask, "Will the letter ask me to come here for training, will it make me stronger?" Why did I go to the Central Silver City Military Academy in the third year, which is the parish of the Temple, and I am a worm again, and I also killed a Silver City nobleman......"
"You killed the nobles of Silver City? Which one? Kozan asked without looking back, as if it was a trivial matter to him.
"No. 13 Silver City, Lei Ling's family." Iron Slag replied.
"Lei Ling's family......" Kozan paused, thought for a moment, and said, "It used to be a family. Then, he asked Tie Slag why he killed the people of Lei Ling's family, and Tie Slag explained the cause and effect of the incident.
"Don't be so impulsive in the future." After listening to the iron slag's narration, Kozan said calmly. He then poured the sliced venison into the pot, scalded it in hot water for a while, and then fished it out again. Then I changed the frying pan, added the butter, waited for the oil to be hot, then added the garlic, and then put the deer leg slices down to fry. After a while, the venison exudes a rich aroma......
Iron slag smelled the smell of meat, and only felt hungry and panicked. These days, he has almost forgotten the taste of meat. I ate compressed biscuits every day, and I didn't even have to eat compressed biscuits later.
"Okay, no, that's pretty much it." Iron slag urged.
"Friend, please be patient." "Patience is a virtue in every Nolseth. β
"That's right, my car!" Iron Slag suddenly remembered that the red comet was still parked in front of the temple door.
"Friend, don't worry, there's no stealing here." Kozan reassured.
After a while, Kozan fried the venison, put it on a silver plate, and handed it to the iron slag.
Iron Slag quickly picked up a knife and fork and cut a large piece, stuffed it into his mouth and chewed it. Wild venison is very resilient and has an extremely strong meat flavor. It was the first time that Iron Slag had eaten venison, and with the hunger for many days, this bite was indescribably delicious.
"By the way, the ice crystal fruit wine." After eating a large piece of venison, Iron Slag just wanted to drink saliva when he remembered this incident.
"Uh......" Kozan was drinking water when he almost choked, "You wait, I'll go get ......," and Kozan left the kitchen, and after a while he came back with a cup and placed it in front of the iron slag.
Looking at the wine glass on the table, Iron Slag couldn't help frowning. That's too little, and you can drink it all in one sip. With that in mind, he picked up his glass and looked at it for a moment. The liquid inside is dark red, and when you shake the glass, you can clearly feel the viscosity of the liquid.
He sniffed, but didn't smell anything. The wine he had drunk in Lena's office before would have a strong aroma, and this wine had no taste of wine. So, he threw his head up and drank it all in one go!
The corner of Kozan's eye, who was sitting across from him, twitched imperceptibly, how could anyone drink ice crystal fruit wine like this, this is simply a waste......
The moment the ice crystal fruit wine is eaten, the iron slag only feels that the whole mouth exudes a strong sweet taste. Immediately afterward, there is an extreme warmth, neither intense nor light, and it feels very rich, as if it will last for a long time.
This warmth accompanied the flow of wine and went to the limbs. It didn't take long for a warmth to emanate from the inside of the body, enveloping the whole person. It makes you feel like you're immersed in warm water and can't help but fall asleep.
"Is there anything else, just now...... I didn't drink it just now. Iron Slag scratched his hair and said.
"Friend, I'll pour you another glass at dinner tomorrow." Kozan said.
"I won't eat tomorrow, and when I'm done with the locomotive, I'm going to sleep, and I'll sleep for a few days in a row." Iron Slag explained. If he hadn't just arrived here and wasn't familiar with the situation, he would probably have robbed it directly.
"Good...... Okay......" Kozan said bitterly. After a while, he poured another glass of ice crystal fruit wine for the iron slag.
"Can't you drink enough at once?" Iron Slag looked at Qiao's wine glass and said very unhappily. This amount seems to be less than just now......
"It takes a bucket of ice crystals to be harvested for ten years." Kozan repeatedly stressed that this wine is not easy to come by, and it is necessary to taste it slowly. Helpless, the iron slag can only drink it one sip at a time.
After the iron slag slowly drank the ice crystal fruit wine, Kozan simply cleaned up the dishes, then picked up the candle and returned to the temple with the iron slag along the same road.
Valhalla was quiet and profound, and the two of them walked for more than half an hour before finally returning to the temple.
The Iron Slag went out and pushed the red comet in, only to see Kozan standing in front of the altar, looking at the flames and muttering to himself. He walked over and listened carefully, only to hear Kozan reading:
"May the ancestors bless us, the descendants of Norses will arrive at the temple, and the guardians of the holy wolf will have followers, may the glory of the ancestors shine on our way, and may the wisdom of the ancestors ......"
Iron Slag thought to himself, this set is the same as those people in the Rain Prayer Temple, similar to some kind of blessing and prayer. Seeing that Kozan couldn't finish reading for a while, he pushed the red comet to the side and waited.
A red comet flashed its headlights, and a subtle girl's synthesized sound was heard.
"Probably, I don't know." Iron Slag replied in a low voice.
Alice proposes to build yì.
"I feel that he is very mysterious, I don't know what his strength is, or wait for him to fall asleep, and we will find another chance." Iron Slag lowered his voice.
Alice replied.
At that moment, Kozan suddenly came over and grabbed his hand, led him to the altar, then folded his hands, bowed to the flame reverently, and then, "Ancestors, please bless the future generations." With that, Kozan bowed deeply to the flames. Iron Slag stood there straight, waiting for Kozan to finish a qiΔ, and then bowed pretendically.
Back at Valhalla, Iron Slag stepped onto the locomotive, and Kozan hurriedly stopped him, saying, "Don't disturb the Heroic Spirit's long sleep." β
"It's far away." Iron slag road. It's so tiring to have to go back and forth every time.
Kozan handed the candle to the iron slag, "Friend, you've come from afar, let me push the cart." β
Iron Slag grinned, pushed the locomotive to Kozan, and sighed, "Thank you." β
In this way, the old cart and the few carrying candles finally returned to the living quarters after walking in Valhalla for most of the time.
The next step is to choose a room. Iron slag walked around and got a general idea of the structure here.
The temple is located at the highest point of the glacier, while below the temple is a long staircase that leads to the base of the glacier. Once the staircase reaches the base of the glacier, it continues to move horizontally, and this underground tunnel is called Valhalla.
Passing through Valhalla is another place on the surface. There is a stone castle built here. The castle is spread over two floors, with the data room in the middle and the entrance to Valhalla. The outer ring of the castle is the living quarters, and the kitchen is in a house to the west.
It's just him and Kozan here, and while it looks like a lot of room, there's actually very little to choose from.
The rooms on the west side of the first floor of the castle are full of storage rooms, which contain all kinds of supplies. The purpose of looking at the iron slag room by room is not to choose a room, but to see what is inside.
Three large rooms off the kitchen are filled with grains, frozen vegetables and air-dried meat that look like they will last for more than a decade. In the past, dozens of houses were warehouses for supplies, with clothes, quilts, barrels, tents, sleeping bags, kettles and other daily necessities, everything from toothpicks and sewing boxes to wardrobes and beds.
Looking at the room on the north side of the first floor of the castle, it is full of all kinds of mechanical parts, all kinds of equipment, and even a generator. It doesn't seem to be any fuel in sight, but it probably doesn't sit in the room, which could easily cause a fire. It is estimated that if there is fuel, it will be stored outside the castle.
Seeing this, he felt a little sleepy, and the rooms on the east and south sides waited to look at it when he woke up. Then he climbed up to the second floor of the castle and picked a room of about twenty square meters near Kozan's room. At the moment, the room was empty and there was nothing. After pushing the red comet into the room, he brought two quilts and a sleeping bag from the warehouse.
The quilt is laid directly on the floor, and the sleeping bag is placed on it. Once he had it done, he slipped comfortably into his sleeping bag. These days, he has been sleeping in the ice and snow, which is really hard. It's been a long time since I've slept well.
The warmth brought by the ice crystal fruit wine continued, and the whole body was warm and comfortable. A wave of fatigue hit him, and he soon fell into a deep sleep......
The red comet parked in the room flashed its headlights and then went into standby.
He slept for two days. When I woke up again, it was the evening of the third day......
