Chapter 13: The Western Valley
On the side of the lush hillside, Chi Nan is walking one foot deep and one foot shallow. Originally, I thought it was just climbing the mountain, what was the difficulty. Now Chi Nan knows that real mountain climbing and tourism are completely different things.
There are no artificially created roads here, but it is still very difficult to walk. Everywhere there is vegetation and there are large stones everywhere. In this case, Chi Nan and the bald father could only bypass it.
The soil here is very loose, and before each walk, the bald dad will test it with a wooden stick in front of him, and then step on it several times to make sure the ground is hard before he can walk through.
At first, Chi Nan wanted to go ahead, but after stepping on the air and almost rolling down the hill with a stone, Chi Nan finally gave up. Although the bald father is old, his physical fitness is much better than his own, and he is also very experienced.
"If only I had enough magic, I could go up directly by stepping on the plants, and where it is like now, I have to walk step by step. Chi Nan muttered as he walked.
The bald father didn't look back, swung his knife to cut off the bushes that stood in front of him, and then continued to walk forward. Whenever he encounters such a large number of plants or a place where big trees grow, the bald father can breathe a sigh of relief. Because the ground is relatively hard in such a place, there is no danger of falling down without stepping on the right place.
"Your Excellency, you are still only a magic apprentice, and when you reach the time of becoming a full-fledged mage, your magic will be abundant. I've heard that a full-fledged mage can use magic from start to finish in a single battle. ”
The bald dad is also well-informed, but he doesn't know much about mages after all.
Chi Nan asked in a low voice: "By the way, I looked at one leg before and seemed to want to follow me, why." "One leg and that leg and foot, walking on this kind of ground, no one believes that they will not fall.
The bald father sighed, and then said, "Because we are both here to spy on you, but we are not sent by the same person. Old man, I was sent by Master Kayladi, and Holm was sent by Master Kayan. But the name of this leg is really vivid, hahahaha......" The bald father smiled happily.
Kayan, did you send someone too? I didn't expect Kayan, who seemed so enthusiastic, to do the same. Chi Nan was silent for a while, shook his head and didn't say anything.
"Hurry up, my lord, we're almost at the top of the mountain, and if you don't go in the wrong direction, here is where the beastmen gather. This time, we must let all those berserkers die in this valley. ”
Chi Nan rolled his eyelids: "What if they all die, it's not that they don't have any merit." ”
Now the bald dad is almost about to become his own, and he will only complain like this in front of the bald dad and the one-legged Holm. If this is heard, I don't know what they will do with themselves.
The bald old man shook his head and said, "This is the case now, because Remas is more chaotic. But if you are able to become a full-fledged mage, you will definitely make up for your merits in the future. ”
Can the official mage still make up for the credit that was missing before? What is going on, but what is the concept of this official mage, Chi Nan does not know very well. Forget it, let's take one step at a time, that's all.
As they spoke, the two of them had already reached the top of the mountain. Looking down from the top of the mountain, there are dense beastmen below.
Some of these beastmen are sleeping, some are fighting with energy, and many more are eating. For the beastmen, the most important thing in life is probably eating. Many of the beastmen stretched out their arms, broke off a branch directly from the big tree next to them, and then put it in their mouths to chew. No, not eating twigs.
If you look closely, there are gray-white particles on the branches, like jujubes. It was these particles that were really eaten by the beastmen. "That's the jujube tree. Chi Nan said to himself.
"That's right, that's the jujube tree. Adults don't look at the fact that the dates are not big, ordinary people can eat enough as long as they eat five or six. Those of us who were soldiers could eat a dozen when we were young and strong, but it was not very delicious. ”
Chi Nan is a little nervous, and in the past few days, he has also seen the food level of this world, at least the food level in this army. There are no spices, just salt, the kind of salt with a bitter taste. The staple food is more black as stone than bread, and the meat is cooked with blood.
I really don't know how they eat it, but it's definitely not delicious. The so-called bread is not made of flour, but from a strange kind of bean, crushed and pressed at high temperatures.
I've also eaten that kind of bean in Pondan, and it definitely doesn't taste very good. This date can make the bald dad say that it is not delicious, but you can imagine how unpalatable it is. But looking at the delicious food of these beastmen, it is clear that they will not refuse anything. It seems that this beastman can eat anything, and I don't know if he has a sense of taste.
"My lord, don't talk so much, let's get started, what to do next. ”
Chi Nan closed his eyes and felt it, he was making sure how far he could control the seed. No way, the distance is too far, he can only control the seeds with his own magical powers, and he can't control other plants.
After a long time, Chi Nan opened his eyes, pointed to the distance and said, "Do you see that red stone over there, that is the location." The other side is right next to the tree, and I can control it around here. ”
With that, Chi Nan handed over some seeds to the bald father. The bald dad got the seed and immediately ran to the side. After running to the place that Chi Nan said, the bald father waved his hand and scattered the seeds. Chi Nan hurriedly detonated the faint magic inside the seed. The next moment, some plants began to grow on the ground within his control.
This is not a tripping horse, but a brightly colored wildflower, and a small patch of flowers grows on the ground.
Chi Nan had been carefully staring at those beastmen, vigilant in his heart, ready to flee at any time. But those orcs were really like idiots, turning a blind eye to the fast-growing wildflowers not far away.
It's no wonder that the bald dad has always said that these beastmen are stupid, and it seems to be true. It wasn't long before the bald dad sprinkled the wildflower seeds on the other side, and soon another small garden grew. Until he came back, the bald father was still full of amazement, the magic of this mysterious power was too breathtaking.
