The old village chief froze at the Vivian ’s question, and then recalled with a beard: "We have a lot of foreigners who come here recently, there are many ways to dress, I really do n’t want to say this about you. Get up too ... "
Hao Ren thought for a while: "Is there a woman who tells you she came from a different world and is trying to get home? She should not speak a local language."
When the old village chief heard this, his eyes suddenly lighted up: "Oh, there is such a one. I had been here two days ago and stayed for one day. I was particularly impressed because no one understood her at first. What she said, it was not a known language at all, but she would suddenly speak the native language of the mountain people somehow. The girl looked very anxious and kept saying that she wanted to go home ... but she did not mention the world. Shier Ah?, how did this blend with what the gang of mage mage said? "
Hao Ren thought for a while, it was estimated that the other party was not cautious about mentioning the fact that they came from a different world to these mountain people, and before she confided the truth with the wolves, it may be because the latter is just a group of beasts, even if the intelligence is high Not as sinister as humans. Seeing the old village chief looking at him with curious eyes, Hao Ren waved his hand: "Don't care about anything in a different world. We are looking for that woman. Do you know which route she took?"
"Oh, this knows," the old village head nodded. "She asked us about the shortcut to Beinz Blood Lake, and I told her the route the mercenaries often take. You will get me to get the map later."
Originally, the old village chief would not disclose the whereabouts of others to a group of strangers, but this time he looked at the face of Becky and did not doubt them more about Hao Ren. Becky often stays in this small village when performing tasks near the grassland. It also helps the mountain people here to solve a lot of troubles. It is one of the local people who are extremely trusted by these serious mountain people.
The cylindrical housing built by mountain people is simple in structure, and the interior is usually divided into several single rooms with straw partitions (which can be removed during relocation). The village head invites everyone to eat in the "living room" near the door. Now, he went behind the partition and pulled out a sheepskin that looked very old from the place where it was a living room, with a rough map of the southern side of the grassland and the western part of the kingdom.
"From here, the first section is along the grassland, and the back is directly from the ancient road in the middle of the mountain. Recently, the mercenaries basically took this route ..." The village head pointed the map, and Hao Ren found that this road was basically It is consistent with the forward route established by Becky, only slightly different in the place that crosses the mountain trail. Finally, the village chief added a sentence: "In addition, she bought a horse from the village, but she has no money. It was exchanged with us for a kind of ointment. The ointment is almost as godlike as medical magic."
The village chief also brought some ointment from the mysterious woman. It was placed in a small wooden carved box and smelled of a fruity aroma, but of course they did n’t recognize it in Hao Ren. It is also impossible to judge where the woman came from based on this.
"Then let's follow this route," Hao Ren looked up and discussed with others. "It seems to be closer."
Lily is bowing his head and tearing the special hard pastry baked by the mountain people with herbs and flour. It ’s like a dog eating food. He heard his head and agreed vaguely: "Okay, okay."
"You hear what you hear," Vivian squinted Lily and looked at Becky, "Is this road okay?"
Becky nodded: "This way is fine, it makes no difference. But you guys really care about Ah?"
A few Hao Ren giggles abnormally and neatly, Nangong Wuyue lied to the lips: "Hehe. Study habits, study habits ..."
Becky did n’t delve into these, but looked strangely at the kettle at Hao Ren ’s feet: “You ’re really dedicated ... You put this thing with you when you eat, what the **** is this alchemy tool? ? "
Before Hao Ren had time to speak, I heard a few bangs and a series of water sounds coming from the kettle. This is Lil Pea starting to churn ASanbaA again, the voice of the latter's protest echoed in the mind of Hao Ren: "Hao Ren! Hurry up and take care of this bear boy in your house! Change the water for her. She is angry now and is grinding her teeth with this machine!"
Becky looked at the kettle with a change in surprise: "It's really an alchemy tool! Is this working?"
The cold sweat of Hao Ren has flowed to the heel, quickly lifted the kettle and hugged and walked outside the door: "Hehe ... Yeah, this thing is running on its own. I will go overhaul, overhaul ..."
Nangong Wuyue looked at Hao Ren ’s back sympathetically, whispering to Vivian beside him: “It ’s okay to have a baby before first marriage, you see how difficult it is for this single dad. You have to change the water for the girl.”
Vivian froze for a moment before reacting: "Here is the one who needs to change the water for the girl!"
Lily looked up at the dining table and reached out to grab the cake in front of Vivian: "You do n’t eat it anymore, then I eat it."
"Daguer dare!" "I'm hungry." "Put the cake down!" "I'm hungry." "Don't move my barbecue!" "I'm hungry."
The village chief happily looked at this lively group of strangers. It was a great honor for the mountain people to eat their own food by the guests: "Mo Pan, Mo Pan, there will be." >
At this time, Hao Ren had reached the small river outside the village with a water bottle. Now the sun has completely sunk to the horizon, and there are no artificial light sources on the prairie, only the starry stars and the bright two moons sprinkle the glow, so that the outside is not too dark, and the village of the mountain people is quiet at this moment. There is a primitive and laid back atmosphere everywhere. Hao Ren found no one by the river, so he boldly opened the kettle to greet the little mermaid: "Lil Pea, Lil Pea came out, I changed the water for you."
The little guy scratched his head and looked at the situation outside. The darkness around her made her a little scared, and the overly unfamiliar world also made the little mermaid at a loss, but she still listened to Hao Ren very much, and after a moment of hesitation, she still clicked. The pot popped out.
ASanbaA, who has been soaking in the water for a whole day and has been tossed by the little mermaid somehow, bitterly drifted out and threw Hao Ren into the air hard: "This machine is waiting for you two. It ’s been a bad thing for eight lifetimes! Look at this tooth on the body ... Alas, it ’s too strong, it ’s not good at all, and no evidence is left. "
Lil Pea looked up at her "walking lantern" and began to grind her small teeth again in the dark, ASanbaA suddenly shuddered.
The Hao Ren replaced the kettle with clean water, and then took out a small piece of paper from his pocket and handed it to Lil Pea: "Hungry or not?"
This piece of paper is still in the pile of rune cards. The unlucky Nangong Sanba really made an indelible contribution to save Hao Ren ’s money for girls ’milk powder. What.
Lil Pea happily holding the card and biting it, the sound of crunching cardboard is particularly clear under the quiet night, crunching and crunching like a mouse ... This analogy is not very good but it is really appropriate . Hao Ren took a long breath and rested the kettle next to it, thinking about Beinz Blood Lake and the mysterious woman, until he heard a thump from his side.
Then Lil Pea is gone.
"Your girl is jumping into the river!" ASanbaA flew and yelled, "Run away!"
Originally, Lil Pea started to wander around curiously after she was full, and then she saw the small river close by. This little mermaid was so excited to see so much water for the first time in her life, as an aquatic creature. Jin'er couldn't restrain herself on the spot, jumped down without thinking!
Hao Ren only heard the sound of a splash of water in the river, and the panic shouting of Lil Pea. He suddenly jumped out without thinking, and he was ready to rescue him by the wind and the waves. It was only when the girl-in-law discovered that Lil Pea was fluttering beside his waist: the small swimming speed was basically the same as the speed of the water flow, and after holding the milk, he just didn't move.
Hao Ren put the kettle sideways in the water, the mouth of the kettle was facing Lil Pea, and picked up Xiaodou in a pocket, and then turned angrily to ASanbaA: "Did you mean to run away ?! Scare me! "
ASanbaA floats in the air with nothing to do: "I ran away, the speed is 0.5 centimeters per second, just slowly. Let you two toss this machine, PDA is also tempered!"
"Go ahead!" Hao Ren grabbed ASanbaA and threw it back into the pot, but just as he was about to go ashore, he found a ray of light coming from nowhere and shining on the river in front of him.
After looking for it, he found that the light came from the white stone brick building across the river. (To be continued.)
