Chapter 4: Into the Mountains and Duels
Jim looked at Colin with disdain and said, "Am I wrong, have you cultivated your fighting spirit?"
Colin looked at Jim quietly and responded, "I haven't cultivated my fighting spirit, but if I'm a waste, then what should you call someone who can't even beat waste?" Barry clapped his hands and laughed, "Then it's better to call it a waste!" Jim blushed and just stared at the two of them viciously. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Colin ignored Jim and clapped his hands and said to everyone, "It's not too early, let's go!" After all, it was a group of young children, and the little festival just now dissipated with everyone's excitement, and even Marven, who had been keeping a straight face, told Colin Barry a few jokes.
A group of children walked to the foot of the Demon Dragon Mountain, the legend is that the Demon Dragon Mountain lives a terrifying dragon, once someone saw a giant dragon flying over the mountain, attracting all the strong people at that time to explore and search here, but then it was gone, some people said that the dragon flew away, and some said that the dragon fell, but the name of the Demon Dragon Mountain has been retained. The old people in the town all told the children all kinds of legends of the Demon Dragon Mountain, and each child was in awe of the Demon Dragon Mountain and had countless fantasies at the same time, and they all wanted to grow up and go into the mountain to explore.
Before entering the forest, Colin stopped everyone and said, "I want to say that after entering the mountain, everything must be under my command, and no one is allowed to act without permission." Everyone has no opinion!" After everyone heard him, their performance immediately changed, Marven frowned first, Jim and several people showed disdainful eyes, only Barry and a few children around him nodded yes.
Colin saw the performance of the crowd and said to Marven and the group: "If you don't agree, please don't follow me into the mountain, because the place I go to is really dangerous!" After listening to this, Marven asked: "It's okay for us to follow you into the mountain, but why should we listen to your command?" Jim continued to say disdainfully: "Listen to your command, how old are you?"
Colin laughed, but Barry said solemnly to Marven and Jim: "I have been in the mountains with Colin several times, and Colin can protect us every time in the mountains!" Jim sneered: "So what, Marven has also taken us into the mountains several times, and we have also beaten the winter wolf and the wild boar! Don't you also get the winter wolf and the wild boar occasionally, but you have only hit the hares!" Marven and the gang immediately laughed at Colin and the gang.
Last time, Marven and the others were lucky to encounter a winter wolf and a wild boar in front of the Demon Dragon Mountain, and even more fortunately, these two guys were dying of fighting each other, and they successfully obtained a bumper harvest, so Marven and the others were quite proud of this.
Barry smiled and said, "You should know what we have fought in the mountains, otherwise they wouldn't have followed us into the mountains." Jim hurriedly said, "That's just your luck!" Barry immediately retorted, "Why don't we compare the harvest every time, and besides, whoever has to follow us into the mountain this time!"
Colin can get a lot of good things every time he takes Barry and his gang into the mountains, not only did he hit wild boars and winter wolves last time, but also often hunted bison, horned deer, antelope and other big guys, they even caught a cheetah once, and the leopard skin alone was sold for ten gold coins, which made Marven and others greedy, they didn't have good luck waiting for prey every time, most of the time it was in vain, so they had to let Colin take him into the mountains this time.
Colin said to Marven sincerely, "You should understand that there is power in numbers, and I believe that I can bring everyone out of the mountains safely." Marven thought for a while and didn't speak, Barry said to Colin: "Forget it, I think it's better to go our separate ways, people don't believe us, why do we have to walk with them." Colin thought for a moment and said to Marven, "You shouldn't have been to the back mountains, I know there is a way to go around the back mountains and valleys." ā
Marven and Jim were stunned, and Jim said: "You dare to go to the back mountain, the mayor of the town asked us not to go to the back mountain until we are adults, didn't your adults tell you? Also, your adults should soak in the tavern, poor children without fathers and mothers, haha!"
Jim regretted it after saying that, he saw that Barry had taken out the axe again in anger, and Marven also looked at him dissatisfied, but when he saw Colin's cold eyes, he just wanted to apologize and held back the words. Although Colin has a good temper, he can't tolerate Jim's provocation again and again, he looked at Jim coldly and said, "Have you itched lately, and forgot how I cleaned you up last time?" Jim was about to say a few good words, but when he heard this, he was annoyed and said: "Do you think it can be the same as last time? I now have a second-level fighting spirit, and you still want to teach me a lesson with your brute strength!"
Colin's face did not change at all after hearing this, and he still said coldly: "Then let's have a fight, let me see how powerful your second-level fighting spirit is!"
Marven thought that Barry would come out for Colin at this time, but Barry just stood beside Colin and looked at Jim with a sneer, Marven couldn't help but be surprised, so he also remained silent. The other children saw that the two of them had no intention of fighting, and they all looked at Colin and Jim excitedly, after all, they were still children, and they were very excited to see any excitement, and everyone shouted for a duel, and then let go of the open space in the middle.
Jim pulled out the thin sword on his waist and said with a smile: "My dad just taught me the family heirloom swordsmanship, and today I will let you taste the power of our family heirloom swordsmanship!" Barry next to him laughed: "With your two strokes, Colin can kill you casually." ā
Jim gave Barry a vicious look, and Colin drew the Frost Sword he had brought with him and looked at Jim calmly. As soon as Jim saw the frost sword in Colin's hand, he immediately showed an envious expression, he knew that this was an enchanted weapon, he thought about it and said with a smile: "Why don't we add some color! If I win, you can give me this sword!" Colin asked coldly: "What if you lose?" Jim said angrily: "How can I lose?" He looked at the disdainful expressions of Barry and the others, and said angrily: "If I lose, I will lose my backpack to you!"
Jim's backpack is made of a kind of monster skin, which is not only beautiful in appearance, but also waterproof and erosion, and Colin has been envious of it for a long time. "Okay, I promise you!" Jim thought he would win, but he didn't see Marven's gesture on the side, and started the battle in high spirits!
Jim snorted lightly, and rushed towards Colin with all his fighting energy, only to see a faint cyan fighting qi emerge from his body, and stabbed a sword in his hand before being three meters away from Colin's body, and the place where he stabbed Colin was Colin's arm, if he stabbed it, Colin would definitely be injured. Colin looked at Jim's sword coldly, just easily took the sword in his hand and waved it casually, everyone only heard the sound of "bell", and saw Jim's thin sword fly into the sky at once, Jim stood in place with wide eyes and empty hands, but Colin looked at Jim coldly and said: "Just like you, don't take it out and be embarrassed in the future!"
There was only a split second between the two of them from the end of the fight, and the children next to them all looked at Colin with incredible eyes. Especially Marven, he stared at Colin with his mouth open, as if he didn't believe the scene in front of him, Marven was confident that he was definitely better than Jim, but it was impossible to defeat Jim with such an easy sword, he was surprised and understood that the current Colin was definitely not his opponent. Jim looked at Colin with a flushed face, and his mouth was also open as if he wanted to say something, but he didn't burst out a word. While Barry and the others who were standing on the other side were cheering, Barry shouted: "Look at our second-level martial monks, we have been killed by a sword again!"
Colin glanced at Marven first and then said to Jim solemnly: "If you make this kind of joke in the future, even if you are a third-level martial monk, I will still beat you all over the ground to find your teeth!" Marven looked at Jim coldly, snatched Jim's backpack and handed it to Colin, and then said to Colin in a calm tone: "I apologize to you for Jim, since you brought us out, then everyone will listen to your command!" Colin nodded and said, "That's good, let's go into the mountain!"
Jim's eyes were red, and he kept staring at the backpack in Colin's hand, feeling remorseful. Colin poured all the contents of Jim's backpack on the ground, excitedly put his things into the bag, and handed the backpack he didn't use to Barry, who took the backpack in surprise and almost jumped up with joy. Barry didn't even have a backpack, he just took a broken bag from home. Barry smiled and handed the rag bag in his hand to Jim and said, "You can use this first!" Jim angrily threw the cloth bag handed over by Barry to the ground, and Barry then shouted angrily: "You don't want to forget it, what kind of tantrum do you want to try my axe?"
Colin dragged Barry, who continued to shout, and Marven walked over to help Jim pack his things, but Jim finally reluctantly picked up Barry's rag bag and put his things in. Barry stood aside and whispered to Colin, "I feel like you're getting stronger again!" Colin just scratched his head and smiled softly.
When everyone walked into the forest of Demon Dragon Mountain, the atmosphere immediately began to become a little depressing, the tall trees blocked the faint winter sun, the forest seemed a little dark, although the air was very fresh, but the forest was always filled with a strong fishy smell.
From time to time there were several noises in the depths of the forest, often startling birds in the distance. Marven and the others were very unimpressed before entering the forest, they still didn't believe that Colin could take them to hunt good prey, they still felt that good luck was the key. But they were still a little nervous when they entered the forest, so they could only follow closely behind Colin and the others.
