Chapter 143: Chocobo Valley
The hunting dog, the Motuomon, and the chocobo are called the Three Fools of the Star Beast by humans, or the Three Saints of the Star Beast, which are the most favorite and trusted star beasts of humans.
Although chocobos can be artificially reproduced, but captive chocobos have been bred for thousands of years, and the final conclusion is that the strength of captively bred chocobos is one level lower than that of wild ones, so most of the current chocobos are semi-wild. Among the three saints of star beasts, chocobo has the best character, as long as humans don't take the initiative to attack them, they can really do whatever humans do. Moreover, chocobos are not low in intelligence and can distinguish what is a real attack and what is a joke.
Yuan Xiaomin's so-called chocobo valley is actually not a valley, but a forest, but this forest is a bit peculiar, forming a huge empty area in the center, and all the trees seem to be deliberately avoiding here, only the fragrant grass is dotted among them. Such a terrain, if you look at it from a high altitude, it really looks a bit like a valley, so it is called a valley.
Chocobos live here, and there are a large number of 100,000 people.
"Brother Ming, do you have any wine?" Yuan Xiaomin led everyone to the Chocobo Valley, and before officially entering, she asked.
"Yes, what?" Of course, Xiao Ming knew that Yuan Xiaomin would not want to drink.
"Chocobos especially like to eat a plant called chocobo, once this chocobo is soaked in spirits, it will exude an extremely rich aroma, which can attract chocobos throughout the valley, and then we can choose the best-looking, the strongest one, I heard that there were people who chose king-level chocobos before!" Yuan Xiaomin said.
"Yes!" Xiao Ming knew that Yuan Xiaomin already knew about the space bracelet, so he didn't shy away from it, and directly took out a vat of good wine from the bracelet.
Isaac good wine. This is the best wine that Xiao Ming robbed from the Xiao family. It was to bring a letter to Isaac.
Yuan Xiaomin screamed happily. He jumped out of the carriage, then took a spin around the neighborhood and pulled out a few red, carrot-like plants: "This is the empty cabbage." It's a lot like a carrot. But people can't eat it, otherwise they will have strong hallucinations!"
While speaking, Yuan Xiaomin asked Xiao Ming to scoop out a pound of wine from the vat, put it in another container, and then break the empty vegetables. Soak in wine.
Almost instantly, a strong aroma came out, making everyone subconsciously take a deep breath.
"Hee-hee, this one smells good. But you can't eat the empty vegetables that have been soaked in wine, otherwise you will die!" Yuan Xiaomin hurriedly explained when he saw that Yingluo and Ilti were eager to try.
"Master, the extract of this empty herb can be used to make a powerful analgesic, I want to collect some for research!" Jelly said in his heart.
Xiao Ming nodded, told Tifa about the situation, and the other girls went to collect the empty vegetables.
"Brother Ming. Do you still make potions?" Yuan Xiaomin was very familiar with empty vegetables, but he didn't expect that this thing could also be used as an analgesic.
"It's going to be a little bit!" Xiao Ming snorted: "When will the chococs appear?"
"Soon. These chocobos have lived here for thousands of years. No one ever harms them, so there are a lot of them. Therefore, it is very scattered, and it will take some time to focus on it!" Yuan Xiaomin explained.
Xiao Ming nodded.
Killing at will, more than the capture used, and privately selling any of the three saints of the star beast is a felony, and it will be despised to death. Therefore, the three saints of the Star Beast get along very well with humans. In some places, chocobos enter human towns and ask for food, but they are not kept by any one family. Humanity will not complain about such a situation. Everyone knows that when they are in need, as long as they are called, chocobos will run to help.
After about five minutes, Tifa and the girls had already collected a lot of empty vegetables and came back, and when they put it on the space bracelet, they heard a sound in the distance that looked like a rising tide, and then the ground shook slightly.
"Look, look, chocobo tide. When I was a child, my eldest brother took me to see it, but it looks good!" Yuan Xiaomin clapped his hands and shouted.
Soon, on the horizon, a "great tide" of yellow and white, with an unknown depth of depth, appeared, and countless chocobos rushed at the same speed with neat steps. The momentum was so strong that Xiao Ming and the others were moved.
"The knight will be crazy with joy here!" Irti muttered, hurriedly opening his portable light brain to record this passage and show it to Iomo later.
"It's spectacular!" said Tifa.
The tide of chocobos is getting closer and closer, but a few breaths away, it is already close, and then there is still a distance of fifty meters from everyone, all the chocobos stop at the same time, the change from extreme speed to extreme quiet, shocking the heart.
Yuan Xiaomin was not afraid at all, holding the jar with empty vegetables and running forward. And on the side of the chocobo, a pure white king-level chocobo also came out.
"Wow, it looks like Gumo! Hee-hee, are they twins?" Ilti laughed.
Gumo is Iomo's mount and a pure white king-level chocobo, which is why Ilti says so.
The king-level chocobo in front of him was obviously the leader of these chocobos, and it did not have any fear of Xiao Ming and the others, so it stepped forward very easily, circled around Yuan Xiaomin, and then lowered its slender neck, wanting to eat the soaked empty vegetables.
Yuan Xiaomin took out one and fed it to this guy.
For the chocobo birds living here, it is a home-cooked dish, and although they like to eat it very much, it is not uncommon to eat it every day. But it's not the same with the sake, which can only be eaten by humans, and the better and stronger the wine, the better the soaking will be.
Of course, the spirits produced by the Xiao family are the best of the best, not to mention that the old lady is completely supportive of Xiao Ming's robbery, and she didn't say anything at all when she saw Xiao Ming move the oldest wine in the cellar into three large jars, but smiled and asked Xiao Ming to take more, and finally Xiao Ming robbed nearly a ton of wine in the Xiao family's wine cellar, and the housekeeper who guarded the dimples was half heartbroken.
As soon as the best liquor was brewed, the taste of the empty food was unprecedentedly wonderful, and the chocobo leader screamed after eating one, looking like he was enjoying it.
The chocobos in the back drooled one by one, but none of them came out to snatch it.
"It's a pity, we can't feed so many chocobos!" Yuan Xiaomin felt a little pity. Although she doesn't drink, she understands wine and knows that Xiao Ming's wine is the best of the best, and no matter how large the quantity is, it is impossible to feed all of them to chocobos.
In fact, chocobos themselves understand this, they all know that humans come here to ask them for help, or to adopt a few companions, and in general, after the leader has determined the intentions of the humans, they will let the humans and them make a two-way selection. In the end, whoever chooses whom, no one will complain.
Therefore, although countless chocobos were greedy, none of them moved, just stood quietly, pitifully waiting for Xiao Ming and their choice, and the expectant eyes quickly made Xiao Ming and them surrender.
"Ming, eat!" Yingluo said as she took Xiao Ming's hand.
"Master, why don't we take out some wine and give it to them?" Gu Qiusha knew that Xiao Ming had a ton of fine wine there.
Xiao Ming was also a little moved, but even if he took out all the tons of fine wine, it would be impossible to feed the nearly 100,000 chocobos, and it would be good to be able to feed half of them. And it is enough to rob the Xiao family's wine cellar once, and I don't know what to do if I go again.
Seeing that Xiao Ming was a little embarrassed, all the women stopped talking.
"Master, I've already figured out that the reason why the spirit-soaked chocobo is more attractive is that the μ1 gum in it will be converted to μ12 under the soaking of spirits, and this ingredient has a stimulant effect on chocobos, and there are no side effects. I have already calculated, the master took out two hundred catties of wine, and then mixed it with water one to one, and then I catalyzed it, and I can get the most perfect transformation, and the effect will not be worse than the best original wine in the master's hand after soaking!" Jelly smiled proudly.
Xiao Ming smiled slightly and whispered a few words to Tifa. Tifa was stunned at first, and then rejoiced.
"Xiaomin, you are a beast ability, you should be able to communicate with chocobos in the simplest way, ask them where there is spring water, the cleaner the better. Sue them, give them the best delicious empty vegetables when the time comes!" Xiao Ming said to Yuan Xiaomin.
Little Lori's eyes lit up, and she didn't ask Xiao Ming what to do, she now had an almost blind trust in Xiao Ming, and turned to the pure white king-level chocobo: "Big bird, big bird." Sue me where there is spring water, clean and sweet spring water, you take me to find it, and I can give you delicious empty vegetables!"
Although only the Beastmaster can rule all types of Star Beasts, most of the Beast Abilities can communicate with non-hostile Star Beasts, and even ordinary people like Chocobo can communicate normally if they spend some time.
The king-level chocobo tilted its head and made a cooing sound, as if it was a little confused. Yuan Xiaomin said the request again, and now the king-level Lu Xing completely understood, squatted down, let Yuan Xiaomin ride on its back, and then croaked, and all the chocobos immediately gave way to a passage.
Xiao Ming said to Tifa: "I'll go get water, you guys are here to collect empty vegetables!"
Tifa nodded: "Don't worry, we have no problem here!"
Xiao Ming turned around and chased after the king-level chocobo.
The speed of the chocobo is extremely fast, and when it sprints with all its strength, it can reach the terrifying three herds, and at this time, this big guy is just using the same speed as a leisurely stroll for them, but it has already reached one her, and Xiao Ming has to use eighty percent of his strength to catch up.
Fortunately, the distance was not too far, and before the time came, the king-level chocobo carried Yuan Xiaomin to a large lake. (To be continued......)
