006 A wise man's thousand thoughts
The Lizardman Warrior Monk asked, "Since you are here to solve this crisis, do you have a way to change this situation?" I don't want the number of feathered people in the tribe to continue to increase. β
Wang: "We know how this phenomenon arises and how to eliminate it. The Order must have performed some sort of ritual somewhere, and as long as the ritual is broken, the anomaly of positive energy will soon be over. We've verified it in Langdon Collar, unless ......"
The lizardman asked, "Unless what?" β
Wang: "Unless you move on to the next stage, if the situation is so bad that non-professionals can quickly and efficiently make healing scrolls and healing potions, then it doesn't matter if you might grow a feather after being treated. β
The lizardman nodded, "Understood." Either way, let's solve the village's problems first, and maybe we'll be able to find some clues that will help you take out the Order. β
Wang: "Deal!" Without further ado, let's head to the Lizardfolk Village. Far from here? β
"It's a long way to go by land, and the key is that there are dense forests along the way, and the lush vegetation makes it impossible to get out of the way." The lizardman introduced.
Nini asked suspiciously, "If the ground can't be walked, wouldn't it be good to leap through the forest?" β
Xiaobai: "When everyone is a forest elf?" I also said it was faster to turn into a bird and fly over. β
Wang was concerned about another matter: "Does the vegetation in the forest grow fast?" β
"Yes, open the road with a machete, and in only three days the grass will begin to grow, and in five days small shrubs will already grow on the road, and of course lichens and vines. In about seven days, the road was completely blocked by plants. β
The lizardman paused, and continued: "From the plant's point of view, the path opened by humans is the sudden appearance of light space, and they have long competed for light in the dense forest, and have developed the nature to occupy it as soon as possible when there is light. β
The king looked at the river below: "I see, that's why some trees grow into the water." β
Lizardman: "Sometimes the river is filled with algae, and in the middle of the night the algae glows blue, and you can see a blue river of light on the ground leading into the distance. β
Nini: "That's great, I hope I can see it once." β
Wang: "It's better not to look, the algae will deplete the oxygen in the water, and the fish will all suffocate." β
Lizardman: "Yes, every time the River of Light appears, it means that the village's food stock will be put to the test. If it was before, we were still a tribe living on water and grass, and there would definitely be a large number of deaths. β
"Not now?" Xiaobai asked curiously.
Wang: "He just said about the villages, which means that they have settled down. This is also something that was not mentioned in my teacher's chronicle, the settled lizardmen. β
Xiaobai: "Why don't people starve to death if they settle down and have a village?" β
Lizardmen: "Because we farm and raise livestock just like humans." When the famine comes, it is enough to kill the animals. Unless the river of light and the great water come at the same time. However, when the water comes, it will wash away the algae, and the fish will be alive again. β
Wang: "All in all, settling down and tuntian has increased the ability to resist disasters, but on the other hand, if you really encounter disasters that you can't resist, you can still slip away in the past, and after you settle down, you have to look at the family money that you are reluctant to save for so many years." β
The lizardman nodded: "Sure enough, this benefactor is very wise." β
Xiaobai: "What is Huigen?" Is it tasty? β
Lizardman: "The little benefactor's speech also contains great wisdom. β
No, she's just by nature.
Wang: "You just said that the land route is very long, and the converse way is very fast, right?" β
"It only takes half a day." The lizardman replied.
King: "All right, our ship is underneath, anchored at the foot of the statue." Let's go. Xiaobai, turned into a griffin. β
"Oh!"
After Xiaobai answered, she turned into a griffin, but as soon as she finished changing, she slipped under her feet, and flapped her wings several times before she finally stood firm.
In order to avoid Xiaobai's wings, the king had to hug Nini's waist.
Even if the elf stands in this kind of place, it is as smooth as if it is on flat ground, and it is worthy of a forest spirit who can walk on flat ground in the forest, and the sense of balance is good.
After Xiaobai stood firm, Wang turned over and saddled, and then looked down at the lizardman: "Do you want to come up?" β
As he questioned, Nini climbed into the saddle.
The lizardman smiled, "I won't join in the fun, after all, it looks like it's already full." β
Wang: "Yes. Since you can go to such a high place, there must be a way to go down. You can't be like in some jokes, you can't come up and find that you can't get down, right? β
After saying that, the king seemed to be amused by himself, and laughed twice.
But no one responded to his jokes, which made him very embarrassed.
Lizardman: "I do have a way to get down, we'll see you on the boat below." β
Wang: "Okay, Xiaobai takes off!" β
The griffin soared into the air.
At this time, Wang suddenly remembered: "Hey, wait a minute! I forgot what that lizardman was called! β
Nini: "Huh? I thought you deliberately didn't ask, teacher. β
"No, I just forgot."
"I thought everything you did was well thought out and there was an extra meaning behind it."
Wang touched his face embarrassedly: "This and this...... Indeed, most of my actions are the result of careful consideration, and you are not wrong in this perception! However, as the saying goes, a wise man must make a mistake in a thousand thoughts. I made a mistake today because I forgot to ask my name. β
As he spoke, the king looked at the top of the stone statue's head, and saw the lizardman jump on the stone statue's shoulder, then slide down his arm for a while, and then jump onto the pattern on the waist of the stone statueβthis thing is based on the ancient world destroying golem, and naturally there are many patterns.
Watching the lizardman's dexterous movements, the king couldn't help but ask Nini, "Can you do the same?" β
Nini shook her head dryly: "I can't do it." In fact, when I first met him, I couldn't last long in that Y-shaped position. β
As he spoke, the lizardmen were almost to the ground. And Xiaobai's side has just begun to decline.
Wang: "Xiaobai! Hurry up, haven't you eaten? β
The next moment, the griffin folded its wings and began to dive.
The king, who didn't have time to tie himself to the saddle, flew up directly, and was then grabbed by Nini.
Nini herself clamped the griffon's body with her strong legs, stunned that she was not carried away by inertia.
Wang: "Feather Fall!" β
The griffon, which had been diving, suddenly lost its swooping power and floated into the sky.
Xiaobai came back and shouted: "You Laipi! β
Wang: "Hmph, do you know how many Feather Fall Techniques I have prepared today?" I was going to go up both stone statues at once, so prepare two! β
Xiaobai was gouging in the air, looking like he wanted to paddle to the king and give him a mouthful.
After the dog gouged a few times, she remembered that she could transform, so she turned into a bald eagle and prepared to make a whirlwind charge against the king.
Nini suddenly said, "The lizardman didn't get on the boat directly, he stopped on the side of the boat, as if at the base of the tail." β
Wang: "Oh, this lizardman is very polite! β
Nini and Xiaobai both looked puzzled: "Wrapping a tail is equivalent to being polite?" β
Just as the king was about to explain, Nini shouted again: "The deck on which the lizardmen are surrounded by sailors with swords!" β
**
"Don't be nervous!" Elizabeth shouted at the sailors, "Don't you understand? This lizardman got on the boat so directly, it must have been Wang who asked him to join the team. Thank goodness it's a male this time - uh, you...... You're a male, right? β
The lizardman nodded: "I am indeed a male lizardman, do you have no experience in distinguishing between male and female lizardmen?" β
Elizabeth nodded: "Yes, you are not breastfeeding, and you do not have such easy to recognize secondary sexual characteristics." β
Lizardman: "Mainly look at the tail, of course it might be faster to show you directly, but it's rude after all, I know that in the human worldview, it is very rude for males to actively expose their organs." β
Elizabeth: "Lizardmen...... Does it matter? β
Lizardman: "Look, none of our clothes cover our tails, and I wrapped my tail before I got on the boat." β
Elizabeth was stunned for a moment: "Huh? Isn't that what the tail should be exposed? Xiaobai also shows his tail all day long. β
Lizardman: "Is Bai the very wise little druid?" She did show her tail all the time, like a lizardman. β
Rosalie: "What do you mean?" I've fooled you up. β
"Let me think about how to express it." The lizardman folded his hands on his chest, propped up his chin on one hand, and thought for a few seconds, "I thought of a good analogy. Lizardmen walk down the street with their tails exposed, just like human males walking down the street with their ** exposed. But the custom of our lizardmen, this is normal, can you understand this explanation? β
Rosalie's mouth opened in an O-shape: "Is that so?" β
"That's right. Of course, when I got on this boat, I had already wrapped the base of my tail. This is a custom to take care of human beings. β
Elizabeth: "This ...... Huh? β
The Lizardman continued, "We'll go to the Lizardman Village later, because the Lizardfolk in the village have their tails exposed, and the ladies are free to leave the village at will. β
"Wait a minute, wait a minute!" Flint interjected, "Why are you going to enter the lizardmen's village?" We need to go to Yi Songzo as soon as possible, find the base of the Order, and make a big fuss! β
The lizardman immediately gave a brief explanation.
Flint: "Got it! Anyway, why can't the little brother come down? β
Everyone looked up together, and saw three people floating down slowly.
The team members on the deck and the three men in the air looked at each other for a few seconds, and Elizabeth asked on behalf of everyone, "What are you doing?" Isn't it a waste of time? β
The king's voice came from the sky: "It's all right, we suddenly want to float." β
Elizabeth sighed, "Okay. β
She looked at the lizardmen, "So you're on the team?" β
Lizardman Warrior Monk: "Does joining the team mean joining the adventure to save the world?" As a warrior monk, you really can't turn a blind eye to this world crisis. However, I didn't receive an invitation to join.
"And you are asking me to join now, in fact, I refuse, because I feel that you can't tell me to join right away, I first have to understand what kind of person you are, after all, this is a two-way choice.
"That mage with Huigen should have planned to do the same."
The members of the Salvation Team looked at each other, and the dwarf said categorically, "Yes! That's what he must have planned! β
Lizardman: "But I'm going to walk with you in the process of solving the problem of the village's positive energy mutations. β
Elizabeth: "Well, okay. So what do you call it? β
Lizardman: "You can call me Liguang." What about you? β
Elizabeth first introduced herself: "My name is Elizabeth, and I am a warlock. β
Dwarf: "Responsible for firing scorching rays." β
The princess nodded: "Yes, responsible for firing scorching rays." β
Liguang: "What about the drow elf sneaking around?" She's not supposed to be an enemy, is she? I don't feel hostile at all. β
Marika emerged from the shadows: "Very good, monk. Straight through my stealth. β
"It's just a little trick to carve insects, and it makes you smile."
Marika: "I'm Marika, the exiled Drow Elf, a wanderer on the squad. β
Dwarf: "Flint, priest." The one next to him, who doesn't like to talk, as you can see, is a savage who likes to shave with an axe. β
Gortrek: "I don't like it. β
The dwarf continued, "Heavenly is our captain, the Diplomatic Ranger and the Druid. β
Liguang: "Balanced configuration, but why are there no poets?" β
Elizabeth: "Looking." Do you know a poet? β
Lizardman: "Unfortunately, no. β
At this time, Wang and Nini Xiaobai finally landed on the deck, and he stepped forward: "I forgot to ask just now, what should I call it?" β
"You can call me Liguang." The lizardman replied again.
"Oh, Liguang. Excuse me to show the way. β
Rosalie asked suspiciously, "Isn't there only one waterway?" What else is the way? Walking along the river always arrives, doesn't it? β
The king shook his head and said, "Of course not, the river network is dense in the river basins, and there are large swamps everywhere, unless you keep following the set navigation beacons and do not go to other places through the waterways, otherwise you will get lost in minutes - on the water." β
Rosalie: "That's because I'm alone. But the ship my father sent is so big, won't it run aground on a small waterway? β
Liguang replied, "Yes." But I see you have a dinghy, you can put it down later, and I'll hold the boat. β
Wang: "Wait a minute, you don't have a vehicle to sail on the river, so how did you get here?" β
Lizardman: "I walked on water, and our monastery calls it water floating." β
The king couldn't help but hold his forehead: "Where is your monastery, I want to visit it." β
Lizardman: "The highest mountain peak in the world." I practiced there for twenty years. β
"Oh, not by the way...... Wait a minute! The king suddenly noticed the problem, "You have lived in a monastery on the top of the mountain for twenty years?" You're a lizardman! You are a cold-blooded animal, won't you freeze directly on the top of the mountain to stop life activities and sleep? ? β
The lizardman stared at the king for a few seconds before replying, "I can bake the fire." β
Wang Fu's forehead: "I'm sorry, mine." β
Xiaobai: "Is this Huigen?" It doesn't look very tasty. β
