Chapter 2850: Wild Horse Prairie
Hearing that it would take forty kilometers to go to the Wild Horse Grassland, Lin Wu immediately retreated: "So far? We're not going to be back that day, are we? ”
"It doesn't have to be back. There was water, food, and a lot of combustibles in the grasslands, and we could camp outside for a week until we caught a wild horse. Redcoat added, "As long as you light a fire, you won't be attacked by wild beasts." For her, camping has become a habit.
Splash said on the side: "Unless you meet a rhinoceros." ”
"Rhinos will trample on campfires, so they need to keep vigil at night. ”
Redcoat nodded, "There must be danger, but I know of a very good camping spot." Splash, we camped for three days before we finally caught Chasing Wind, right? ”
"That's right."
Qing Lang was a little worried, and reminded: "Hongyi, you should explain the danger to them." ”
"In addition to zombies and beasts, horse training is also a very dangerous job. It is said that at least 20 players in Northgo Town have died from taming horses, some have been thrown off their horses and some have been kicked to death by wild horses. But don't worry too much, as long as you don't challenge good horses, ordinary horses are still easy to tame. ”
Qinglang: "It's not easy. "He's more cautious.
Hongyi smiled and said, "Yes, it's not easy, but it's not very difficult. The point is simple, climb on the horse's back, don't get thrown off by the horse, and hold on until it's quiet. Then give it a handful of grass, if it eats it, it means that you recognize your master's identity, and you will be prompted to get a mount. ”
Splash continued, "If it bites you, keep riding it." ”
Qinglang: "We have a lot of theoretical knowledge, and in fact there are no more than eight wild horses that are actually tamed in the entire town of Kitakami. If it's really easy, we should have one horse per person. ”
Lin Wu nodded: "We'll be careful." ”
Redcoat: "The last thing is the saddle. Once you have a horse, you can craft system reins and saddles in the crafting room. Most of the materials used in the saddle are readily available, except for leather. A saddle requires 5 full Grade A leathers. ”
Lin Wu and Maya asked, "Grade A leather?" "I haven't heard that there are gradings of skin.
"Peeling the skin will give you the whole hide, and then the whole skin will be processed, and different grades of leather will be made according to the source of the hide. Generally speaking, the whole hides of beasts that weigh more than twice the weight of the human body can be processed into Grade A leather. Beasts such as tigers and lions have a certain chance of processing S-grade leather. The saddle obtained by S-grade leather processing is lighter in weight, making it suitable for long rides. ”
Maya asked, "What class of horses does Wind Chaser belong to?" ”
The red clothes replied: "Two stars, the highest is said to be five stars." But according to the information I have obtained, the player has only three stars of the highest level horses. After obtaining the horses, carry three kilograms of food and go to the outskirts of the town to find an NPC to identify. He will tell you the characteristics of the mount in detail. ”
Lin Wu asked: "What should I do if I encounter a typhoon day when I am camping outside?" ”
Hongyi was stunned for a moment and replied: "Then you can only resign yourself to fate." ”
Lin Wu looked at Maya, and Maya said, "Of course I want to go!" ”
I hate autocracy!
Maya explains: "You never know when a typhoon will come, and waiting is just a waste of time. Typhoons are not lethal on their own, and I believe that even if we encounter a typhoon, we will survive. ”
Lin Wu strived: "But it has to go 40 kilometers." "If you get a horse, you have to walk back if you don't get a horse.
Hongyi persuaded him: "The scenery along the way is beautiful, so it should be regarded as a tour." ”
Lin Wu muttered, but did not make a sound: Travel? Tours are all by car. Which tourist have you ever seen walk 40 kilometers to travel?
For Maya, Lin Wu can not object.
Maya asked, "Redcoat, which player base do you know that can be recharged?" ”
"Charging?" The three asked: "Why do you want to charge?" Can it still be charged? Is there electricity at the base? ”
So Lin Wu began to tell the story, and the base not only had electricity, but also water, and even artillery. And the three people at the Night Moon base had heard of the outpost for the first time. This can't be blamed on them, even in non-hardcore mode, the bases between players in Tech City are relatively far apart, and the radio station at the command post is just a decoration.
The next question is the Fort Agents, if they can be found, they may be connected to the Nightmare, and they may find their way home. Yeyue had only heard of the fortress agents during the Abandoned Capital event, so Lin Wu continued to tell the story of the fortress agents.
On this day, Lin Wu entered an environment that he had never set foot in. The three of them knew for the first time that the outside world was so exciting, and they didn't know that many people in the outside world were not as wonderful as them, after all, not everyone was a shadow.
……
The cabins at the ship's base are lined with chairs on both sides, and the aisle in the middle is narrow. Lin Wu, Maya, and Xiao Wei could only sleep in the small lattice with blankets. Just lying down, the mosquito corps began to attack. Lin Wu went next door to ask if there were any mosquito coils, and when he came back, he told Maya: "The blanket is not for padding. ”
Cover the whole body with a blanket and cover the head, and the mosquitoes will naturally not be able to get out of their mouths. However, Lin Ma had never slept like this, and after a while, he felt extremely hot and out of breath. You can only use your knees and feet to lift the blanket and try to make the interior more space. The two of them couldn't sleep at all, and at about two o'clock in the morning, when both of them were sleepy, Xiao Crook, who was lying between the two, suddenly jumped up, looked out of the boat vigilantly, and let out a muffled warning sound, as if he was ready to attack at any time.
Limma glanced at each other, got up from the ground and walked to the window. Seeing that the bonfire had not been extinguished, Chasing Wind, who was tied to the stone next to the bonfire, walked around quite uneasily, as if he felt that there was an unknown danger hidden in the darkness outside the firelight.
Maya glanced back at the command post, it wasn't a shimmering night, but the light value was only 15. Maya said, "Go and see." The two men left the ship from the rear side of the ship and reached the shore, and their presence quieted down the chasing wind.
Lin Wu and Maya stood left and right on the edge of the firelight, trying to look out with their eyes, but found nothing. Lin Wu released the drone, the drone flew out of a hundred meters, and Lin Wu saw a large number of heat sources in the image: "Wolf." ”
Lin Wu pointed in the direction of 10 o'clock and the direction of two o'clock: "In two directions, there are many wolves." ”
"How much is a lot?" Maya asked.
Lin Wu replied: "There are 30 in each group. "Together, they only have 50 rounds. Maya is a tabula rasa, and Lin Wu lacks the ability to confront multiple targets head-on.
The head of the red coat stuck out of the window and asked in a low voice, "Maya Lin Wu, why don't you sleep?" ”
Maya didn't look back, looked at the direction of the two points vigilantly, and replied with a hunting crossbow in her hand: "There is a wolf, can you remove the chasing wind?"
"Wolves?" Hongyi immediately woke up the two boys who were resting next door, quickly got off the boat, and stood beside Maya: "I can only ride away from the base." "Three watches in the middle of the night, visibility is very low, and it is not excluded that wolves will follow the pursuit.
Lin Wu asked rhetorically: "Why do you want to go?" It's all meat. "The wolves don't carry the zombie virus, and the splash is a general practitioner who can deal with all injuries. If you can't beat it, you can withdraw to the ship, and it's a big deal to die chasing the wind.
Hongyi didn't seem to hear what Lin Wu said, and suddenly thought of something, and said, "Oh no, I may have killed their she-wolf today." The books say that if someone kills a pregnant she-wolf, the wolves will retaliate against the player. ”
Maya asked, "What book?" ”
Hongyi replied: "Grassland Survival Guide, published by Science and Technology City Press." ”
Lin Wu reported: "Bad news, more than a dozen wolves have joined the two wolf packs one after another. ”
Shui Hua said: "Hongyi, think about it, whether to put on a life jacket and hide in the lake." ”
Redcoat vetoed: "No, even if I escape, they will attack you." ”
Maya said: "Sunny and splashing, with the wind as the center, the triangle lights three bonfires. Lin Wu, set up the trap, and then sneak in the direction of 9 o'clock. After the wolves attack, look for an opportunity to take down the first wolf. Others prepare torches and use them as weapons to deter the wolves from attacking. Be careful, don't chase the number of killer wolves, our aim is to stop the wolves from attacking. As soon as the wolf is dead, they will disperse on their own. ”
Maya added: "Shout when you drive, don't retreat easily, and don't turn around and run away, leaving your back to the enemy. ”
The three of them glanced at each other, and no one questioned Maya's command and the orders she had given, and they each went to work according to Maya's arrangement. Lin Wu took a small crooked movement in the direction of 9 o'clock. Why is it in the direction of 9 o'clock, because this is the downwind outlet.
……
Ten minutes later, a wolf howl was heard, and the wolves attacked. They came from two directions, and the target was the wind chasing by the campfire. Chasing the wind was extremely restless, neighing and trampling the horse's hooves. If it wasn't discovered in advance, it would have been impossible to wake up quietly at this time, and then try to save Chasing Wind.
"Raise the fire." Maya gave an order, and the four of them together lifted the burning firewood in the fire, and Maya moved to chase the wind. Three fires, a bonfire, plus three torches, immediately suppressed the onslaught of the wolves, who roared in the darkness beyond the firelight, sounding angry, but not daring to step forward.
A short wolf howl was heard, and the wolves retreated from the fire and retreated to the starting point.
At this time, a huge silver wolf slowly walked up to the high platform in the direction of 12 o'clock. It sat silently and looked at the world with cold eyes. In the dark, its silver skin shines outstandingly. At this point, its thugs split into two groups and gathered at 10 and 2 o'clock, respectively, waiting for it to give the order to charge.
Outfit 13 was struck by lightning. Maya pulled the trigger, and the bolt flew out, flying towards the black silhouette in the distance. The weapon is good, the accuracy is good, but the range is a little worse. The crossbow flew in a straight line, but not in a straight line, and eventually the crossbow bolt slipped a meter from the wolf king's side, and was completely lethal, falling limply on the grass.
How can the king's scales shoot lightly? Even if it is far away, it will be punished!
The wolf king raised his head and let out a long howl, and the wolves echoed the long howl. As the long howl ended, countless Night Moon Wolves ran quickly through the darkness and rushed towards the campfire. Maya could hear the sound of running and howling, but in the darkness of the night, they could only see a pair of golden eyes rapidly approaching them.
Maya ordered: "Stay close to the campfire." "Wooden stick torches are defined in the system as homemade blunt instruments.
The four of them leaned against the campfire with fire sticks, and the first wolf appeared at the edge of the fire, which ran two steps and pounced on the water, where it was hit in the head by the splash sticks. This is thanks to Maya's simple order, if they get close to the Dark Zone, they will be pounced on without any reaction time.
The wolf that had been beaten fled back into the darkness with howls and jumps, which also opened the prelude to the attack of the wolves. However, because there were four fires, the light limit within 20 square meters was very sufficient, and the wolves were naturally afraid of fire, so although they bravely rushed into the fire, they slowed down. Some wolves snorted in place before attacking, and some wolves roamed around, apparently disliking the battlefield.
At this time, the wolf king smelled a strange smell, and jumped forward to easily avoid the wind thorns of the forest mist.
Lin Wu was shocked, this goods are good cows, and they are crooked. Xiao Crooked immediately gnawed together with the wolf king, although Xiao Crook is a hunting dog, but the wolf king is one in a hundred, and his body size is twice as big as that of Xiao Crooked, and a clear-eyed person knows the winner at first sight.
Clear-eyed people know that as the owner of Xiao Crooked, how could Lin Wu not know? His purpose was just to let the little crook entangle the wolf king. I saw Lin Wu unhurriedly raise his pistol, lock his head, and collapse the wolf king with one shot. The wolf king is also very powerful, and he can scream miserably twice when he is shot in the head, and the wolves who heard the scream suddenly became confused, rushed into the darkness without any formation, and fled in all directions.
After all, it was the leader's wife who died, not his own wife, and there is no need to fight for a dead leader's wife now. How good this result is, the leader is dead, and the thugs are all alive.
After cutting off seven kilograms of meat and a piece of the skin of the wolf king, Lin Wu returned to the bonfire and apologized first: "My wife is a guard, and she has a daily habit of giving orders, and she has offended a lot, so please forgive me." ”
Everyone hurriedly said: "No, no, if there is no Maya's command, the consequences are unimaginable." ”
Lin Wu said modestly: "There are not many consequences. "It's a dead horse. If the player doesn't want to be tough, they can go into the water from the side and hide in the water.
Lin Wu proposed: "It's a long night, why don't you eat some fresh meat?" ”
Hongyi immediately said, "I'll go get the grill." ”
After eating and chatting, after the first cooperation, the relationship between the two sides has been brought a lot closer. Lin Wu's EQ is relatively high, and he downplays his own combat ability and compliments Yeyue's survival experience. It's a pity that there is no good wine, so everyone can only boil the lake water instead of wine, and eat all the 7 kilograms of meat contributed by the wolf king.
The Night Moon trio can also see that Maya doesn't like to chat every day, and she doesn't laugh or laugh, let alone say anything. After comparison, they all felt that Maya was more trustworthy. Lin Wu's mouth was too oily.
Lin Wu is not without emotional intelligence, and he still has the ability to talk to people when he sees people, and he still has the ability to talk nonsense. It's just that there is no need to think too much about it in the shadows, and it is more important to live yourself. At present, people are under the roof, not to mention the help provided by the other party, when this friendliness is worth Lin Wu's attention and nonsense.
……
At dawn the next day, Redcoat and Lin Ma set off together for the Mustang Meadow. The three of them walked, and Chasing the Wind followed behind the red clothes while grazing. The saddle is a system item crafted in the crafting room, with an inner pocket that can hold three weapons. During the journey, Limma learned to ride a horse under the guidance of the red coat.
After walking for about 10 hours for dozens of kilometers, having lunch and drinking a few kilograms of lake water, I finally arrived at the Mustang Grassland at four o'clock in the afternoon. This is the only place where players in Northgo Town can find wild horses infested.
The wild horse grassland is in the shape of a mountain, and there is a large area of grassland by the lake below, and there are two gentle slopes on the left and right sides of the mountain, all the way up, connecting to the mountain range. In the middle is a rift valley mountain stream, and a small stream flows out. According to Hongyi, it is the snow water that melts from the top of the mountain range and flows down to nourish the land.
Follow Hongyi into the mountain stream, and there is a pasture built by the stream, and the pasture is connected again with the gentle slopes on the left and right sides of the mountain. The ranch is located in a rather hollow area, and two sloped roads have been artificially built to connect to the gentle slope. Bloody heart in the wooden warehouse of the ranch. The three of them only watched from afar, but did not look closely.
Hongyi took Lin Ma out of the mountain stream, walked the gentle slope to the left, and soon reached a cave about five meters deep. The entrance to the cave is slightly narrow, and it is difficult to get in after the wind, while the interior is more spacious.
Hongyi said: "When we rest at night, we can carry stones to plug the hole." ”
Lin Wu asked, "Are the four big stones on both sides of the cave entrance that you used to block the entrance to the cave before?" ”
"Yes!" After the red coat finished speaking, he laid a blanket in the cave. She also brought a lot of air-dried fish and meat, as well as a large bucket of lake water that she had loaded before. After tidying up the floor, Hongyi said, "You guys rest for a while, I'll go pick up some combustibles." ”
