Chapter 187: Exploration of the Valley of the Gods
It's already the middle of winter, and the northern country is notoriously cold, but the trees are still green near this valley of the gods, and the grass has just turned yellow. Therefore, it is inevitable that there are sheep, horses, and cattle grazing on both sides of the valley.
The two rode two horses and braved the frost of the early morning to the mouth of the valley. A gust of wind blew in the valley turned out to be warm, and Li Fei felt very surprised. The so-called valley mouth is actually a gap between two mountains along the cliff hundreds of miles long. Beneath the Gap Mountain was an open field, with little grass growing but not cultivating.
As far as the eye can see, hundreds of acres of open land are dotted with a few simple wooden houses. At the mouth of the valley is a herd of cows grazing.
The two rode slowly closer, and a teenage cowherd was lying on the grass, holding the grass in his arms and holding Erlang's legs. It may be that he paid attention to his cattle and didn't notice the approach of Li Fei and the others.
I only heard the cowherd baby lazily and impatiently said: "Black girl, obedient!
Ah Xue approached the horse and stabbed Li Fei: "Hey! Look at the black cow!"
Li Fei looked at Ah Xue's hand, but it was not the same, there was the most robust black bull, and the capillaries all over his body were reflective. This guy is snatching the field where the other cow is grazing, and after eating two bites, he will see that the other grass is fat and rich.
Li Fei felt funny, this cow is like a human, standing on this mountain and looking at that mountain, there is no time to be content.
After the cow herding baby warned again, to no avail. I saw this cowherd baby striding over barefoot, one hand and one horn, and the right foot mixed with the two front hooves of the strong black bull. Just listen: "Hey!"
The black girl took a few steps and fell heavily to the ground. The cow herd pressed the black girl's neck with her body side, preventing it from getting up, and pointed at the bull's eye with her left hand and said, "Stare! If you stare at me again, you will be punched and you will not be able to marry one-eyed." ”
Not to mention, that black girl really didn't dare to look at him anymore. The cow herd let go of it and said: "Go and grab other people's grass to eat, I will bring you a halter and starve you for three days, and you will not have any!"
As soon as I turned around and saw Li Fei and the others, I was stunned: "What do you want to do here? Don't think about it when you enter the valley, do you know why this place is called the Valley of the Living?"
It is estimated that this cowherd baby will not see anyone for many months, so he talks to the cow. So when they saw Li Fei and the others, they naturally kept talking.
Ah Xue asked curiously, "Why?"
Li Fei also wondered in his heart, where did this name come from?
The cowherd said, "I won't tell you!"
"Cut! Don't tell to pull it!" Ah Xue's childlike innocence was also successfully provoked by this kid.
The two were about to go to the valley, and the cow herd reached out to stop the two of them on the road and said: "I am the doorman of the gate here, and I have to do a skill test when I enter the valley." If you don't pass the test, you won't be allowed to enter. ”
Li Fei smiled and said, "Oh? Who set the rules?"
The cowherd baby hugged her fist at the West and said: "It's a great single rule, in order to let the people who go in come back alive." ”
Ah Xue clapped her little hand and said, "Haha! I know, this is the origin of the Valley of the Living, right?"
The cow herd covered her mouth, and then pouted the corners of her mouth and said, "Hmph! That's half right!"
Ah Xue put her index finger on her lips and made a thinking gesture: "Well! That's right! It's the valley that makes people live, right?"
"Oh, I'm not playing with you, I guessed right, I don't even know what's next!"
Li Fei felt that this kid was really cute, so he said, "You want to collect tolls, right?"
"Yes, yes, yes, what do you think?"
Li Fei gave him a gold coin and said, "It's hard for you to stay here all year round to prevent unsuspecting people from falling to their deaths!"
The cow herd saw that it was a gold coin and was shocked: "Don't have so much!"
Handed it over again like a gold coin, Li Fei said: "This is the money to rent your black girl, I don't know how long I have been in, this girl should be familiar with the road and water source, right?"
The cow herd smiled proudly: "You still know the goods, and others refuse to rent a black girl, they think it's too boring." I told you it saved my life. But it's not up to me to rent it!"
Li Fei couldn't help but say with some regret: "I still have to ask your grandfather, I don't have time to wait, so let's rent an experienced one!"
"No, no, no, I don't mean that, I mean to see if the black girl wants to, it's angry with me!"
Ah Xue turned her head again and was speechless: "Cut!"
I saw the cow herding baby walk to the side of the black girl and touch the bridge of its nose and said: "Don't be angry, this wrestling will let you win, this is the first time you are leading the way, be careful of deep pits and puddles, and poisonous snakes!"
I don't know if Hei Niuniu understands it, he took Hei Niuniu's hair and led it to Li Fei: "Okay! It agreed, let it go ahead, and it will stop and tell you when it encounters a canyon crack." ”
Li Fei didn't expect it to go so smoothly, but he still felt that something had been overlooked.
The black girl is still very conscientious, and after a long downhill journey, the black girl almost slipped and fell, and then she reached the bottom.
The bottom of the valley is gourd-shaped, and the further you go inside, the wider it becomes. At its widest point, it can reach almost two miles.
Li Fei and Ah Xue followed behind Hei Niuniu, and Li Fei used spiritual power to communicate with Hei Niuniu. The black chick is even happier and takes the lead in front very seriously.
Li Fei released his spiritual sense to look for suspicious traces in the valley.
After a day's walk, I couldn't find a water source. Li Fei asked Hei Niuniu, "Is there a water source here?"
Black Niu Niu said: "It's enough for us to just eat grass, we don't need water for three days!"
Li Fei said: "What about three days later?"
"The master will give me water to drink in three days!"
Li Fei was speechless, this is also a stupid girl, and he was fooled by this kid. Looks like you'll have to find water on your own!
Ah Xue said: "Our water can be used for ten days. ”
Li Fei said: "You didn't listen to it, do you have to give her water to drink?"
"If you count it, it will only last for three or five days. ”
The black girl suddenly screamed at this time, Li Fei looked over and saw that the black girl was retreating step by step. Li Fei hurried over and saw a python in front of him entangled a cheetah. Seeing this, Li Fei hurriedly released his powerful power to deter the python and said, "Quickly release the cheetah, otherwise I will kill you and take the snake gall to make wine." ”
The python saw that Li Fei hurriedly let go of the cheetah, and Li Fei asked the cheetah: "You are more familiar with here, where is the nearest water source?"
The cheetah stood up a few times without standing up, and finally dragged his lower body to support his head with his front legs and said: "Thank you for saving your life, there is water in the cave where I live, and if I can't catch food today, the two cubs will starve to death." ”
Li Fei said to it: "Don't move yet, I'll try to reset your lumbar vertebrae." ”
Li Fei gathered his strength and only listened to a few squeaks. Cheetah's lower limbs can move.
The cheetah led Li Fei and Axue to a cliff not far away, and gradually Li Fei heard the sound of flowing water. When I got closer, I realized that it was a small waterfall, and the water flowed from a cave several feet high. Unfortunately, instead of moistening the earth, the water entered the cracks in the rocks and disappeared. The damp rocks were littered with bird droppings, some bird feathers and the bones of some small animals.
Li Fei said: "Are these bones left by you?"
Cheetah said, "Yes!"
"Then this water source is the water source of death for small animals."
The black girl and the two horses were drinking water, and suddenly they both raised their heads at the same time, revealing a nervous posture.
Li Fei let go of his spiritual sense, and found that the danger was rapidly approaching.
