Chapter 448: 800 years
Knowingly, the deal was negotiated. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The three yellow-skinned half-elves returned to the forest satisfied, not that they were too easily content, but in the current situation, it was not easy to find a human willing to cooperate with them.
And these half-elves are no longer like their ancestors, the High Elves, who can fill their stomachs just by drinking dew and eating some flower petals, and their magical talents have become obscure, and the only thing that remains now is outstanding archery skills and a pair of pointed ears.
The city that the elves were once proud of has long since been burned to the ground, and their culture has completely disappeared, including the craftsmanship of the elves, look at the three half-elves, they killed three wolves, and they had to carefully recycle the feathered arrows, the iron arrows were too much luxury for them.
There is no way, the inheritance is annihilated, how knowledgeable the former high elves are, and now the half-elves probably don't even know a lot of big characters, only some experience passed down by word of mouth, plus the last trace of courage flowing in the blood, and the half-elves living in human cities have long been accustomed to the fate of being a low-level race.
In fact, there are more than half-elves, and the same is true of the dwarf clan, the dwarves used to be rich in armor and the forging process is unparalleled in the world, but now, in the world of "Wizard", there are only three or five master blacksmiths and armor craftsmen, but basically all of them are human blacksmiths, and the only dwarf who claims to be a master blacksmith turns out to be a liar, in fact, he only has the skills of a small worker.
As a result, dwarves can only do such shoddy jobs as lumberjacks, sailors, bodyguards, underground underworld thugs, etc., and often risk being burned as heretics.
I have to say that with the rise of human beings, if there is no accident, in a few hundred years, any half-elves, any dwarves, will disappear in the long river of history like the Indians.
Of course, the general environment is like this, Mu Shaoan didn't dare to hope that he could change anything, he was not a compassionate mother, he just set out for his own interests.
As an anti-virus hunter, he can't guard himself and tamper with the plot, but this rule is only used in the main plot and important side plots, the half-elf clan, or the current squirrel party is really not important at all in the world of "The Witcher 3", just like dust and mustard, they can't participate in all the big and small events, and they are completely free from the background.
And Mu Shaoan didn't plan to let them encircle the city in the countryside, it made no sense, the half-elf clan had no chance to rise, humans could give birth to a child in an average of one or two years, and it would take hundreds of years for the high elves to give birth to one, even if the half-elves had degraded bloodlines, a couple could only have two or three in a lifetime, which could not be changed.
But there is one thing, Mu Shaoan will definitely be able to use it in the future.
When he returned to the village of Norwickan, he found that the nineteen recruits had each looked for sticks, spears, and pitchforks to make weapons, and were now patrolling the entire village in small groups.
Yesterday, Mu Shao'an really angered these guys, so much so that they even put the matter of going to Kail Mohan on hold for the time being.
Observing this scene, he smiled, that's right, you have to beat these guys to a rage, I'm not afraid that you won't get angry, I'm afraid that you will wilt.
Next, Mu Shaoan did not swagger into the village, but chose to ambush, suddenly killed from a hidden place, divided by two, and put down a group of four-person recruit teams that were startled, and by the time they shouted and led the other recruit teams over, Mu Shaoan had already run away.
Then a new chase began, but it turned out without incident, and by late evening all the recruits were covered in bruises, grinning in pain, and too tired to get up.
Mu Shaoan did not allow them to leave the village without permission, so he naturally tried his best to consume their physical strength and continue to seduce their anger.
For the nineteen recruits, it was destined to be an indelible nightmare, and they didn't know that the nightmare had just begun.
In fact, Mu Shao'an himself was tired enough, Cheng Mo's body was too weak, but he was strong-willed, so he could endure it, so after dark, he still had the strength to teach a few half-elves the skills of boiling salt in the hunter's hut.
That's right, it's better to teach people to fish than to teach people to fish, this morning's negotiation, Mu Shaoan asked for this, he can only stay in the world of "The Witcher 3" for a month now, and he can't stay too far away from other recruits, in this case, how can he get enough salt, cloth, and iron for these half-elves? Just kidding, he doesn't have a doppelganger.
So he chose to teach the skills, so that a month was enough for this small tribe of half-elves to have the ability to survive in the forest for a long time.
After all, this world is still vast, and many primeval forests cannot be set foot by humans.
As long as this small tribe of half-elves can master the skills of self-sufficiency, they will not have to risk leaving the forest, plundering the humans, and finally being easily killed by the human army with stronger and more advanced weapons.
However, the half-elves were still very wary of Mu Shao'an's proposal, and the three half-elves still came tonight, and they didn't know how long they stepped outside, and they knocked on the door when Mu Shao'an was sleepy and collapsed.
Then there is a rough explanation of the skills of boiling salt, as long as this thing is a modern person, as long as it is a person who has gone to junior high school, he generally understands this truth, even if it is a guy like Mu Shaoan who does not learn and has no skills, he knows to boil water and boil it for purification.
But these techniques are still quite powerful in this medieval background, especially since there is no sea here, and there is no salt lake, and the half-elves can only eat the mineral salt in the deep mountains, the kind of salt that contains a lot of impurities, and you can know what the consequences will be if you think about it.
After talking about boiling salt, Mu Shaoan told them about the importance of growing crops, after all, people take food as their God, and they will die of hunger, but these half-elves can only hunt and eat meat every day, and they don't add any condiments, meat without salt, whoever eats it every day will collapse.
And the essence of the blood talent of the elf clan is close to nature, in layman's terms, it is the difference between vegetarian food and meat food, of course, this does not mean that you can't eat meat, but even if you want to eat meat, you have to eat more elegantly, meat and vegetarian matching, just like men and women working, yin and yang harmony, in short, you can't be like a hungry beggar, even a mouse eats, so for a long time, the blood left by your ancestors will be consumed.
In addition, get closer to nature, learn more about plants, and understand with all your heart, with the advantage of the blood of half-elves, a few druids will automatically emerge sooner or later, especially in this world, there is not a lack of magic in the source, the aura of heaven and earth is so abundant, is it difficult to comprehend a few magic?
Also, you actually came to me to buy herbs, this is really a wood for fish, no, it's riding a donkey to find a donkey, the forest is so big, what are the rare, there are no precious herbs, why are you drenched in the rain, you have a cold and fever, you can only wait to die?
No one understands?
As the leader of an ethnic group, especially an endangered ethnic group, how can you do it without a fearless spirit of self-sacrifice?
Learn to record the different flowers and grasses you have seen, chew a few if you have nothing to do, don't be afraid of death, don't be afraid of pain, you have to understand that if you continue like this, your half-elf clan will be finished, you have reached the most dangerous moment, you need to reserve the last essence blood for your half-elf clan.
Don't believe it, your eyes now are not only to see tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, but also to see decades, hundreds of years.
Three hundred years ago, the Duchy of Touscent was the capital of the Elven Dynasty, and the last Elven King was forced to surrender under the siege of the human army, so the Elven King is now the best-preserved and most spectacular and beautiful city in the world, and the human race is proud of it.
The Duchy of Touscent has even become a paradise that all human beings envy, it is indeed a paradise, a fairyland on earth, with beautiful scenery all year round, but do you know that it was the place with the most elves and the stronghold of the elves, but now there is not a half-elf and a dwarf there, why?
While humanity praises the beauty of their homeland, they forget the bloody massacre of two hundred and eighty years ago, in which all the elves and other subhumans in Towcente were wiped out.
As a result, the Duchy of Touscent has become a beacon of the human spirit, a paradise for human beings, and people are keen to become great knights, talking about the five virtues of knighthood, kindness, justice, mercy, bravery, and integrity.
No one would have thought that under the glamorous scenery, the bones of the elves were paved.
You can't compete with human beings anymore, even if you are willing to fall into half-elves, even if you have a part of human blood flowing in your body, it can't change your ending, if there is no accident, at most two hundred years, there will be no more elves, no dwarves, no more halflings in the world, in another five hundred years, all records about you will be thrown into the fire by humans with ulterior motives, you will only occasionally appear in fairy tales, but in those fairy tales, you will either become evil witches, or become vicious monsters, and the one who destroys you will always be the great prince and the knight of justice。
So if you want to find a way to live, you can't subvert this world, then find a way to be alone, this is not cowardly, because perseverance, hundreds of years, thousands of years of perseverance requires great perseverance, and it also requires your race to continue to appear wise, maybe one day in the future, you can also swagger on the streets of human cities.
"It's 1217, you just have to wait patiently for another 800 years, and then don't say you're a half-elf, even if you're a vampire or a werewolf, there will be a whole bunch of little human girls running up to the pillow mat. ”
Mu Shaoan silently said the last sentence in his heart, and then finally couldn't stay tired and fell asleep.
