077: Straight downstream
After about two days of walking through the forest, Roshi noticed a problem and got lost.
His sense of direction was never good, and in such a primeval forest with no road signs, even if he had a map, it was useless, in fact, the maps of this era were very backward.
Where is it?
The eyes circled around the forest, stout oak trees lined up in a patchwork of white five-petaled flowers, and a few small animals leaped through the trees, either elk jumping past or squirrels climbing up the trunks with big stuffed tails.
"Bang la la"
There was the sound of running water not far away, and there was a stream over there, and Roshi walked over and washed his face, and the water splashed on his face was cold.
Looking at the stream, Roshi suddenly had an idea, took out the big sword from the ring, clicked it a few times, cut down an oak tree surrounded by almost four people, sawed off the lush leaves on the top and the rhizome part below, and then cut it in half, and hollowed out a space in the middle.
Finally, sharpening the ends a little, Roch pushed the finished wooden boat into the river, jumped on it and tried it, well, although it was a little shaky, but the whole thing was quite stable.
After making sure that the boat would not sink, Roshi dragged the boat ashore again, ran back into the forest, gathered some soft floc, and threw a thick layer on it.
It took a while for Rosie to finish all this work, and by this time it was already noon, so he took some dry food from the ring and fooled his stomach.
"It's unpalatable!" Roshi finally made this comment after chewing for a long time, and at this time he was a little nostalgic for the delicacies made by Chef Raff in the castle.
After thinking about it, he found another branch and got a long line from the spare clothes of the space ring, and made a little metal block to make a fishing hook, hung the bait made of dry food, and then inserted the pole into the small wooden boat, Roshi pushed the small wooden boat into the water, jumped on it, and went down the stream.
Where does the stream go?
Whatever, just wait until you see people before you go ashore.
This drift is two weeks.
For two weeks, Roshi was mostly drifting, lying on the creek most of the time, the vegetation in the forest was very vigorous, most of the time, the dense branches blocked most of the sunlight, even at noon, when the sun was the most vicious, the sun shining through the treetops was warm.
When you are thirsty, you bend your head, bury your head in the stream and drink two sips, when you are hungry, you will collect some firewood on the shore and cage a fire with a star dagger, grill and eat the fish hooked on the pole, look at the beautiful scenery on both sides of the river, occasionally say hello to the small animals that appear on the shore, and fall asleep together with the night at night, as if you are one with nature.
Of course, there are bad times.
One is that it rains, but this problem has been effectively improved by Roshi's addition of a straw hut to the boat, and the hazy rain can be enjoyed while hiding inside.
The other problem is more painful...
One night, Luo Xi suddenly felt a violent shaking of the hull, as if it had merged into a turbulent river, subconsciously poked his head out to see the situation, only to find that there was a waterfall in front of him, so frightened that he hurriedly ran to the shore next to him, the small wooden boat could not be brought up, and he could only watch it fall.
When Luo Xi walked in to take a look, he found that the waterfall was only less than ten meters away, and the small wooden boat that fell was still floating underneath.
I hurriedly hurried down the river bank, checked it, and saw that although it had turned over, the hull made of logs was still relatively strong, and it was basically fine.
The next few times he encountered this situation, but Roshi noticed that in such a forest, the drop of the waterfall is very small, so he just stopped paying attention to it every time he confirmed the drop, and even grabbed both sides of the boat and plunged into the water twice to experience this exciting feeling.
I have to say.
I'm still very strong.
Enjoying this beautiful and comfortable time, the depression of Dawn Town was also swept away, and the magic power that had disappeared in his body was also restored day by day.
So it drifted down the stream, through the forest, into the wide river, and after some jolting, turned into a new stream, into a strange forest, and so on.
After sixteen days of drifting, Roshi decided to go ashore, and although the mana consumed had not fully recovered, it was almost there.
Although he still hadn't found a populated place to confirm his specific geographical coordinates, he felt that the forest he had just arrived in had a good elemental content, which was very suitable for his own cultivation, so there was no need to go to the glacier or return to the castle.
Picking up a few pebbles from the ground, Luo Xi casually reported them in his heart, threw them into the sky, and then fell down, letting God judge the feng shui for himself, and finally chose an empty meadow by the stream as his foothold.
After making sure, he took out his big sword and cut some logs from the side, knocked them into the ground one by one, and spent two days building a small wooden house, and then spread a thick layer of pine branches on the top of the wooden house to protect it, and Roshi's new home was completed.
Let's get the fence and the like later!
Standing in front of the house and nodding in satisfaction at his new home, Roshi pushed open the wooden door and came to the cabin, on top of a pile of soft wool that was laid out, ready to start his own meditation, this time he was ready to break through the intermediate apprentice level to reach the advanced apprentice in one fell swoop.
Shaking his head, Luo Xi first took out the spirit potion from the space ring, there was still some left from the meditation before, enough for two or three months, as for the remaining materials, he also carried it with him anyway, and now he is very skilled in configuring the spirit elixir, and the environment does not have any big impact on him.
Then, he took out the Yuri candle and lit it during meditation, which had a very good effect on the convergence of the elements, and could increase the cultivation speed by at least thirty percent.
Of course.
Roshi's self-confidence does not come entirely from these two items, but from the last one, and it is also the largest receipt he has received from this expedition.
Reciting the incantation, Roshi took out a glass container from the spatial ring, and in the pale yellow liquid, a small fish about five centimeters was swimming around.
The sunlight shining through the window on the bottle reflected the silver scales with a sparkling light, each with a slight pattern on it, and a closer look at the past finally outlined a strange human face.
