"Are you an Egyptian? You brought a cat with you and actually cooked it for the cat first." This is what Mei Danzuo asked Amon when camping at night. He has short, golden-brown hair, white skin, a tall and straight nose, and a very handsome look. In the minds of most young girls in this world, his smile must be charming, and the teeth exposed when he smiles are also very white and neat.
Amon asked puzzled: "Why do I eat cats first, Iju people?"
Mei Danzuo: "Egyptians worship cats and treat cats as the embodiment of gods. Only then can they spoil a cat so much, do n’t you?" When he saw the theologian who saved himself When he was so young, he was also surprised, but Amon did not take the initiative to introduce his origins.
Amon smiled and replied: "Oh, this cat is a friend of my elders, trust me to take good care of it. I am indeed from Eju, named Amon, I learned magic at a very young age, But so far, it is only a second-level magician. Just now you said that you are from the city of Baron, the king of the Baron Kingdom. Why did you come to the deep mountains of Hati? "
Since the anxiety has been exposed just now, he simply poses as a magician from Eju. Anyway, Mei Danzuo cannot verify his identity.
Mei Danzuo: "Hati? Here in Barron! ... Well, it may be that I made a mistake. There are no obvious landmarks here. Do n’t tell you that my great-grandfather is also a magician, But he died here in the war a long time ago. I came to find his ruins. Dear magician, why did you come to such a difficult and remote place? "
Amon inexplicably remembered something, and then froze before replying: "My intention is similar to yours. A high priest lost something here many years ago, and ordered me to find it, and told me that it was also An experience. "
Mei Danzuo blurted out and said: "Did you offend him, sent you such a young magician to come here?" Then he explained: "I did n’t offend you, I just spoke casually . "
Amon waved his hand indifferently: "This is indeed a kind of punishment. I have something that I did not do well, and I am willing to accept such a punishment."
Mei Danzuo smiled and said: "It is impossible for the general high priest to come here through the mountains. He must have left something while flying in the air. If it is near here, I can find someone to help."
Amon was surprised: "Find someone to help? Who can I find here? Do n’t you come to find the remains of your ancestors yourself?"
Mei Danzuo explained again: "I've been here a few times and met the biggest dwarf tribe nearby. They should be the people who are most familiar with this area. Ask them to help you find things left behind in the mountains. "
Amon: "Caveman savages? You also deal with their tribes? What's going on today, how can you go to that waterhole to alarm those armored beasts? I have never seen that kind of mutant armored beasts."
Mei Danzuo replied a little embarrassedly: "Although I didn't find the ruins of my ancestors, I got acquainted with the dwarf tribes here, and often exchanged some things with them. This tribe does not have other good things but can smelt fine iron Embryo is very valuable. And I need money to go to the mountains in recent years, so I have to do some exchanges with them. It may still be in Barron, is n’t it smuggling? "
Fine iron is officially controlled for sale no matter in which country. Privately conducting such transactions is suspected of being illegal, but Amon is too lazy to take care of this kind of business, and asks: "You are here to find ore Do you want to smelt refined iron yourself? "
May Danzuo froze: "You are not the first time, how can you know that there is the most high quality concentrate iron ore?"
Amon shrugged and said, "This is my first time, but the best high quality concentrate iron ore can be found in the feces of the armored beast, I have known for a long time!"
Mei Danzuo was stunned, and his expression became very strange in the light of the fire. He whispered a rough sentence before saying: "The so-called high quality horse leather steel ore raw material was originally the armor of the iron armor! That **** patriarch could Did not tell me that. "
Amon also froze: "Ah, you don't know, how did they tell you?"
Mei Danzuo said bitterly: "The tribes here produce the finest iron embryos of the most high quality, which are much better than ordinary fine irons. They are called Ma Gegang in our place, and you ca n’t make a small piece out of the mountain. Little money, but little production. I asked the patriarch if he could get more? The patriarch said that the ore is difficult to mine, and that the silt deposited by a pond in the mountain is rich in the best Ma Gegang ore. But there is an iron beast king living in the pond. If you want to collect it, it is very dangerous, and their people do n’t dare to come.
I am also a Middle Level warrior, and it should be no problem to deal with an armored beast king, so I came quietly. Want to kill the armored beast king to let those dwarves also look at me. The patriarch didn't tell me that there were four of them, let alone that the ore was the dung of the armored beast. As a result, I almost sent my life here, fortunately I met you. "
Amon watched him laugh out loud, and the laughter grew louder, and then Mei Danzuo also laughed. The two laughed relatively, and echoes came from the mountains at night. Schrödinger, who was dozing off, raised his head and looked at the two with dissatisfaction. The expression seemed to be saying-what's so funny! Shameless?
......
After the sun rose the next day, Amon leaned on a branch carrying Schrödinger, and under the leadership of Mei Danzuo, went on to the high place. Although he did not intend to let the caveman savages help him find Bell's whereabouts, it is always useful to inquire about any notable places in this neighborhood.
The clouds on the high mountains look like floating seas, and when they walk into another misty mist, Amon has almost crossed the clouds for the third time. Halfway through, he suddenly heard something moving in front of him and stopped with a staff: "May Danzuo, there seems to be a sound in front, not like an animal, much like the footsteps of a person."
Mei Danzuo jumped onto a big stone, lifted his sword and looked forward. After a while, he suddenly shouted, "Linker, you are old and immortal, hurry up and come! ... You cheated me so bad, look How can I clean you up! "
A group of people came out from among the woods turning the mountain road. The first one was Mei Danzuo, who was cursed by the "old and undead". He didn't look very old, it should be only about thirty. He was a little darker in skin tone but already the whitest among these people, wearing clothes made of animal skins and a pair of hemp woven shoes. He was the only one among these people and the chief of the caveman savages in the mountains.
When Link saw Mei Danzuo, he quickly stepped forward and said: "You have wronged me. I heard you went to the Hantan mining sand where the Iron Armor Beast King lived. It was dark and there was no way to find you. The warriors from the collection are here to save you. "
Look at more than thirty "Warriors" behind Link, some holding simple bows and arrows in their hands, some holding iron-headed spears with wooden handles, and a few people with very good weapons Interestingly, it is a thin, rough flat iron bar sharpened with a sharpened edge, which can be stabbed or cut, but not shaped like a knife.
These people are not too short, but the patriarch Link said they are the strongest warriors in the clan, and they should be the tallest, but they are similar to the average height of ordinary adults. It is not without reason that cavemen are called dwarves.
May Danzuo jumped off the stone as soon as he saw Link, using his spine spine as a desire to knock his head: "When you come to rescue me, I would have been eaten by an armored beast! Is n’t it said that there is an armored beast king? ? How did I meet four! "
Lin "Ah" opened his mouth with a loud mouth, and blocked it with a short stick in his hand. He did not know what short beast he made from the bones of beasts. There was actually a magic stone inlaid on it, much like the magician's staff.
He looked up and down at Mei Danzuo and said: "You can still come back safely? You left quietly without saying what you said yesterday, but I repeatedly told you not to go without permission. The one you met was not the Iron Armor King, but It is a large iron armor guarding the lair of the Beastmaster. The Iron Armor King usually does not come out until the middle of the night .... Four big armor beasts! Are you okay? "
Mei Danzuo took out a yellow-black five-inch long hook-shaped thing from his pocket, which was the "trophy" he obtained yesterday, and the beast claw that he cut off with a sword shook it a little flauntingly: "Look at what this is! Fortunately, a noble magician helped me, and I personally cut this claw."
Everyone gave a sigh, Link looked at the paw in Mei Danzuo's hands with some envy, and asked curiously: "The magician, what a magician? Is it your friend?"
Mei Danzuo replied proudly: "Not only my friend, but also my life-saving benefactor, you ignorant old guy. Have n’t you even heard of the magician? It ’s more powerful than yours. Alright! "
At this time, Amon came out from behind the big stone. These cavemen had n’t even heard of the magician, and they avoided the trouble of introducing themselves. Everyone was greeted to the mountain with Mei Danzuo only if he was a friend of Mei Danzuo and a guest in the tribe.
This tribe really has the characteristics of a "burrowing savages". It is built on a flat half **** under a low stone wall. There are many natural caves along the stone wall, which can be inhabited after artificial excavation. A fire was ignited in the largest cave. A tribe took turns to collect firewood every day to make the fire unburnable. It was a public fire source for all the family.
Although the dwarves here are already using flint to make fire, the pile of fire is also a symbol of the whole family. The big cave with fire is equivalent to the temple in the general town. The open area in front of the cave is also the whole family Meeting place. There is also a house on the hillside not far from the stone wall, which is made of wood and thatch, and the wall is also plastered with mud. Although simple, it is also strong.
The people who live in the house are all people of higher ethnic status. Mei Danzuo seems to be very respected here. There is a house for him to live in, and Amon also lives in this grass house.
At dusk, there was a rally among the tribes. A group of people circled around a pile of firewood in the open space, passing the beast claws cut by Mei Danzuo to each other, imitating various The act of hacking is as if the claws were cut by themselves, and the expression is very intoxicating.
Amon and Mei Danzuo of the Iron Armor are sitting in the most honorable position, and they are with Patriarch Link in front of the big hole burning the fire. Mei Danzuo whispered in Amon's ear: "This is the happiest time of the day, they can dance until the fire goes out before going back to sleep."
Amon also whispered: "What are they doing with that paw? All of them are like drunk."
Mei Danzuo: "It was a ritual, dreaming of gaining the power to kill beasts, giving them confidence and courage. Don't be afraid when hunting, every time you can succeed, anyway, it is a kind of witchcraft prayer. "
It was getting dark during the talk. A dwarf took a branch to get fire in the big cave. It looked like he was going to light the woodpile on the open ground. Amon suddenly remembered one of the things mentioned in the message left by the old maniac. He stood up with a fine iron branch in his hand, and the other hand emptied a pile of firewood in the distance.
A wind blew around the woodpile, and there was light in the wind, the light turned into a filament, and the flame turned into a flame that jumped like a tongue in the wind, and the flame ignited the pile. Although it is only the simplest element of fire summoning magic, but with the elemental magic of qi, the effect is both magical and dazzling.
The movement of the dwarves dancing around the fire stopped, and the others sitting in circles stood up, and then Amon saw everyone prostrate towards him, with a look of reverence and fear. . Patriarch Link is also saluting to him, and Amon heard him say clearly: "A messenger of the gods, you brought warmth and light!"
Mei Danzuo around me saw everyone doing this, and stood up and bowed to Amon, but quietly squeezed his eyes and whispered, "You are really good, this hand is too beautiful! Unfortunately, I am not a magician, Otherwise, it ’s been like this for a long time. ”
