Chapter 136: Crossing the Hill
Pack your bags, two people, a dog, and a pot of flowers in your backpack, and continue to set foot on the road over the mountains. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info The previous killings were forgotten by them, and only then could it be easier. You know, traveling in Atas is already a heavy burden, with heat, a sea of sand, dryness, the threat from desert monsters, and of course, loneliness. So it's very necessary to travel light, and it's also very necessary to have a friend.
The corpses of the sand thieves and halflings were exposed to the sun, and Zhao Mai also specially used the natural force to enhance the smell it was able to emit. It didn't take long to attract a large number of creatures to gather, which made the two people who left a lot safer and more relaxed on the road.
The two men would advance early in the morning and at dusk, resting at noon and late at night. The best thing about being in the mountains is that it's easy to find shade, and a dark shadow can be more than 10 degrees lower than the bright surrounding area. But beware of the creatures that hide in the shadows, who are not as clever as any, but who are the landlords, who know all the shade well.
"Well, we're just going to share the shadows, avoid the midday sun, and leave before dusk. Zhao Mai slowly stretched his hand forward, and then stopped in front of the giant scorpion's mouth. The poisonous tail needle reflecting the metallic light moved over and hovered over Zhao Mai's wrist. After a moment of stalemate, the red rock scorpion gave way, drew a line on the ground with its pincers, and continued to hide in the shadows.
"Alright, come and rest, the master agreed. Zhao Mai beckoned, and Butcher, who was already frightened, came over. "Don't go over the line on the ground, and you'd better sit on the other side of me. ”
"Is it really not going to attack you?" Butcher's hand never left the hilt of his sword, still very nervous.
"If I hadn't believed in the Force of Nature, I wouldn't be a druid. Zhao Mai brushed the gravel on the ground with his hand, then sat down on his knees, his buttocks resting on his ankles. This position is uncomfortable, but it is a step in the training of halflings' psychic abilities, which is said to be conducive to realizing their potential. A smaller and more agile halfling would be much easier to do, and Zhao Mai only needed to see how awkward Butcher was, and his heart would become more relaxed.
Adjust your breath, enter the cycle, and fantasize that the psychic power starts from the brain, travels through all parts of the body, and then returns to the brain. This can build the most basic psychic ability movement, and if you want to show your energy (that is, exert your ability) in the future, the first thing you need to do is to use your mind to drive this energy and project it to the outside of your body.
For learning psychic abilities, Zhao Mai's progress is very fast, which makes Butcher quite envious. Zhao Mai attributed it to the help of the Force of Nature, because when he mobilized the power of his mind, that part of his body also moved. The Force of Nature sometimes helps and facilitates the circulation of psychic abilities, like a car with two engines, which work in different ways depending on the situation. At present, Zhao Mai's natural force has the advantage in terms of total amount, but his psychic ability is faster and more agile. It's like thinking is always lightning fast, but it has to be implemented in the body to complete the action.
Twin engines also have the advantage of being able to work on both psychic abilities and the natural force at the same time, and even add physical training to it. However, in the wasteland of Attas, brain power can soar to the sky, but physical strength cannot be wasted. If you go to a safe and secure place, Zhao Mai will definitely try the three-pronged feeling.
Meditation and training made the body feel comfortable, and Zhao Mai opened the water bladder and drank it. Even in the shadows of the mountain cliffs, the temperature is still extremely high, and the breeze does not seem to be able to blow the slightest fresh air. In the direction they came, the heat and dust climbed up from the foot of the mountain, along the red-streaked sandstone, towards the top of the cliff. They then join the sandstorm cloud, landing on the other side of the mountain range, accumulating. So, in the direction they were heading, huge sand dunes reflected the sun's crimson glow, so bright that it would sting your eyes when you looked in that direction.
"What a stunning view. Zhao Mai swallowed the water, and then a furry thing poked it. The red rock scorpion smelled the water and probed its head to ask for it. Zhao Mai smiled, poured some into its mouth, and gently patted its carapace. The rest is reserved grain, and the scorpion can't be too greedy.
"It's magnificent, I don't see anything like it in Granleon. Butcher also opened the water bladder and poured it hard. "But......" he narrowed, his eyes, which were always red and swollen from the sand, "I would have liked another way to see sand." Lying on the beach on the blue sea, with the shade of the trees above your head and the soft and fragrant thighs under your head, you can see the thrilling mountains and a beautiful smiling face when you look up. Another glass of cold ale at hand. Ah, I miss the port of Kovosha and the Frost Warlock there. ”
"Frost sorceress?" Zhao Mai quipped, "Are you sure you're not a sorceress?"
"Ha, you said to my heart!" Butcher was reluctant, took a small sip from the water bladder, and then stared at Zhao Mai for a while, and asked: "I stayed in this world because I wanted to start a new life, what are you for? I remember you said that you have a family, your parents, and your younger siblings?"
"Oh, yes, I do. Zhao Mai pushed the scorpion's big pincers aside, and the big red man became too enthusiastic after drinking the water. "My original intention of going out on an adventure was to learn spells and heal my father, and now that I know how to improve my spellcasting ability, I will soon be able to accomplish my original goal. At that point, I'll be a lot freer. ”
"And what do you want to do?"
"It's nice to look at this magnificent view. Zhao Mai pulled his feet out from under his buttocks, straightened his legs, and leaned his back against the mountain wall. "You know, I wasn't very satisfied with my life in the past, I always felt that something was missing, but because of my vision, I never knew the answer. Now, the Force of Nature has allowed me to communicate with the world, and psychic abilities have helped me discover my heart, and for the first time I can hear what is really going on in my heart. I want to see more, listen more, and enjoy the beauty of the world more. I've had the best chance in the universe to get out into the stars, into a fantasy world that used to exist! I know it's not always going to be smooth sailing, like the pyramid baddies in the mangroves and the people who crashed our car and caused the journey. I have the ability to protect myself and get out of all kinds of difficulties, and I have the strength to do the same to those who have harmed me. Don't be afraid of the bad things first, so that you can better appreciate the good ones. After that, I want to take my family and friends to see all this, if I have enough money, of course. ”
"That's what you heard when you tapped for psychic abilities, and that's amazing! My psychic abilities only made me hear strange sounds, like the scorpion fart next to you. Butcher stretched out his hand and patted Zhao Mai on the shoulder: "I can teach you to fight, your druid skills can help you overcome the hardships of the wilderness, and you said that this fart psychic ability has unlimited potential?
"Men are forever short of money. Zhao Mai said.
"Oh yes, and thighs, wine, and ice. Butcher blew his nose and said angrily, "There will never be a shortage of sand!"
