The valley has a large drop between the upper and lower reaches of the valley, and the water is turbulent.

Less than 100 meters downstream from the second group's hunting site, there is a natural levee formed by a landslide, which forms a Yansai lake, so that the hundreds of pounds of Tim fish can lurk in this water, and the valley is lined with rocky beaches, which are almost the size of a fist, and after years of washing, they have become smooth and round pebbles.

On the wooden cross, there was only a skeleton of bones left, and the hemp rope used to climb the rock wall was also sharpened, and some serious places were about to break.

The soldiers of the second squad sat exhausted under the tree, and the old willow tree by the river seemed to have just been through a storm, and its branches and leaves had fallen to the ground.

Occasionally, a Tim fish leaps up from the surface of the water and shoots a water arrow at the willow tree.

Of course, these water arrows could not touch the soldiers of the squad, but they beat the old willow tree on the shore to the point that the leaves were almost gone.

The warriors sat under the trees, and a water arrow exploded overhead, like a light rain.

……

Although Tim Fish has not awakened the primary wisdom, this first-level demonic beast is not without any brains, and when it is almost noon, there is no Tim Fish willing to bite this big hook.

There were fifteen Tim fish weighing two or three hundred pounds in front of the rocky beach in the river valley, and the fish heads all over Qinglin were split by sharp axes, and the magic core inside the skull was taken out by the bearded young man Kagle, but unfortunately the skulls of fifteen Tim fish were opened, but only five dragon's eye size magic cores were found, because the magic cores were relatively small, so the probability of being able to open the magic crystal was also very low.

But even so, the members of the second team were excited for a long time, even if they didn't bet that there were magic crystals in it, they just sold the magic core, and the value of a magic core the size of a dragon's eye like this was about fifty silver hammers.

In order to avoid the disturbance of the tim fish in the river, Surdak ordered the team to drag the tim fish to the bushes farther away from the river.

Surdak has good skinning skills, he is crouching next to a tim fish, using a sharp skinning knife to peel off the whole fish, this fish skin is a good material for sewing fish skin scabbards, can also be made into fish skin boots or belts or something, the merchants in the street market outside the camp are very willing to buy this low-level monster material.

……

"It's a pity that none of these Tim fish have natural magic patterns, or they can still have a small income." Surdak pouted and rubbed the back of his hand with the skinning knife against his cheek, looking a little dissatisfied.

"It's also very good, if these magic cores and fish skins are sold, the money you get is almost equivalent to a month's subsidy for the infantry regiment. It's no wonder that so many adventuring groups are willing to come and explore. Garcia the Red Sock crouched beside Surdak with a cheerful face.

Since they talked about the distribution of the spoils of war, Surdak sat on the grass, took a sip of water, and then pointed to the few magic cores in front of him and said: "If these magic cores are sold to Lakin, you can probably get two hundred and fifty silver arrowheads, and our team has a total of thirteen people, and if it is evenly distributed, it will be about nineteen silver dollars." ”

In the few days that He Boqiang borrowed the merchant Lajin tent, he usually helped the curly-haired boy Gabi to set up a stall, and Gabi's stall also had a few magic cores the size of pigeon eggs, so he knew the price of magic cores very well, and the magic cores of such a size on the market now were indeed at this price.

He reached out and picked up a magic core and put it in the palm of his hand, the magic core still exuded a little fishy smell, each magic core has a very hard skin, only by polishing off this outer skin, can you see the magic crystal inside.

Surdak said to the team, "We can each get a Tim skin, I don't care if you sell it privately, or keep it and take it home, if you sell it in the camp market here, it will cost at least ten silver dollars, but you must think about it, if you take it home, the price can at least double it." ”

Fifteen Tim skins were evenly distributed among thirteen, and the remaining two belonged to the captain and the skinner, that is, Surdak's.

The bearded Cagle seemed a little dissatisfied with these harvests, looked at the magic core in He Boqiang's hand, and sighed: "It would be nice if these magic cores all opened magic crystals." ”

Augustus sat beside Cagle, his eyes lit up, and he asked tentatively, "Do you dare to bet on one hand, if one of these five magic cores can open a magic crystal, we can at least double our harvest." ”

Cagle rolled his eyes upwards and asked, "What if you can't open one?" ”

Augustus spread out his hands and said with a nonchalant expression: "Then there will be nothing, we will only carry a Tim fish skin home." ”

Garcia of Red Socks said cautiously: "I think in fact, as long as we sell these magic cores, we will make money, and there is no need to gamble." ”

Seeing that some people heard Augustus' words, and their eyes began to come alive, Surdak immediately waved his hand and said to Augustus:

"I've seen someone open this kind of dragon's eye size magic core, and they haven't even opened twenty magic crystals, and the stone yield of the magic cores produced by first-level demonic beasts is still too low! If you want to block it, you can pay to buy these magic cores, and if you can really open the magic crystals, all the gains will be your own. ”

Augustus spread his hands helplessly, indicating that he was poor, pouted and said, "If no one supports me, then forget it!" ”

……

He Boqiang quietly put the magic core in his hand back to its original place.

Just now, He Boqiang suddenly found that the demon core in his hand seemed to seep out a faint breath from it, and that faint breath flowed down his arm to his shoulder.

In that instant, in his spiritual world, he sensed countless stars in the void, gathered in the body projection dimmed, the second star that was lit up a few days ago at his shoulder had completely stabilized, and with the faint breath released by the demon core in his hand into his body, a dark star next to the second star began to have a faint light.

The breath seeping out of the demon core was able to light up the stars in his spiritual world.

He Boqiang hurriedly put the magic core back in its place, and when he retracted his hand, he subconsciously picked up another magic core, and he quietly put this magic core in the palm of his hand, and that faint breath did not appear again.

He Boqiang picked up the other magic cores one after another, but only when he held the first magic core, he would feel it.

……

The weather is hot and these tim fish will go bad quickly when they are left there.

Now they are lying in the shade of the bushes, and the soldiers of the second squad are cutting off the best meat of these fish, cutting them into thin slices and placing them on the clean big rocks on the shore to dry them, but one fish is about two or three hundred pounds, and the net meat cut by fifteen tim fish must be at least a thousand catties, and even if it is dried fish, it will weigh hundreds of catties, and there is no way to carry them all away, so they can only choose some of the best dried fish.

The meat of Tim Fish is tender and delicious, and everyone's lunch is a pot of fragrant fish porridge, which cannot be cooked in the wild, so it tastes like that.

Due to the presence of natives nearby, the second team could not stay here for too long, and waited until the sun was about to set, and then put some of the dried fish into grain bags, and each person returned to the temporary camp with more than 20 catties of dried fish.

……

He Boqiang was sleeping soundly in the tent, and heard the voice of Garcia the red sock from outside the tent: "Captain...... Surdak! ”

It seemed that it was useless to shout the title of captain, and it didn't wake him up at all, so Garcia the Red Sock boldly changed to his previous name 'Surdak'.

Hearing someone shouting, Surdak, who was lying at the door of the tent, immediately woke up and asked in a deep voice:

"What's the matter?"

He Boqiang forced himself to open his eyes and look outside the tent, at this time the sky was just dawning, the sky gradually turned blue, the stars receded, and a dazzling white belt appeared in the sky.

Red Socks wore a heavy suit of armor and half-squatted outside the tent, and reported to Surdak, who had just been woken up:

"Captain, those natives have gone across the river to steal fish!"
