Chapter 1259 The scorpion and the camp
The group walked in the quiet forest for most of the day. At about five o'clock in the afternoon, they met Charles who was sitting on the rocks by the stream waiting for them with two dead male wild golden chickens.
Charles pointed to the mountain and said to Christo, "It's halfway up here and there, suitable for camping. Other places either have no water or no suitable ground."
Christo looked around and agreed to camp here tonight.
Although the line between two points is the shortest, people who walk along the mountain road know that it is best to take a detour along the mountain when walking in the mountains. On the one hand, it is very exhausting to go up and down the mountain, and on the other hand, it is easy to encounter cliffs and other places that block the pace.
They had already walked most of the way around this day. If they were not afraid of death, they could rush to the group of Rexley-toothed dragons to the place where they were active overnight despite their fatigue, and then turn into the late-night snack of these sub-dragon monsters in the night battle.
Christo's family education made him understand that theoretical knowledge such as hasteness is not achieved, and that he cannot be attacked and rested. Night is the biggest enemy. His family asked him to lead a team to be an adventurer, which made him transform theoretical knowledge into practical experience.
But he felt something was wrong today, so he arranged for everyone to organize the camping site on the flat ground on the mountainside, and then he arrived next to the stream at the foot of the mountain. Charles had just finished a job here.
Charles inserted two circles of freshly cut wooden sticks on the ground, and the tarp he bought was hung on the wooden stick to assemble it into two "?"-shaped curtains. There was a small ditch below each of the curtains that led the stream into and then flowed out from the other end.
Christo asked curiously: "What are you doing?"
Charles hung two wooden signs with fire elements that burned out two words "male" and "female" on the curtain, and said, "This is the toilet. You can't let everyone squat in the wild, what if you accidentally get shaved by poisonous grass and get bitten by a snake?"
Christo opened his mouth in a daze and said, "Just be careful, there is no need to be such trouble."
Charles said seriously: "It is not too much preparation for the rescue operation. It is better to bring more things than to be in a hurry if you lack things."
"I am worried that even if the trapped adventurers are not seriously injured, they will be weak due to hunger for many days. They may have mental problems due to long-term mental tension and despair. If they are rescued, they will not be able to travel back immediately."
After hearing this, Christo thought, and he felt that what Charles said seemed to have said it as well as the elders in the family.
But when he came to his senses, he saw Charles dealing with the two golden chickens upstream of the creek.
He came to the side of the shochu who was soaking the golden-skinned chicken with a hot spring technique mixed with streams and asked, "What are we going to do next?"
Charles said while pulling off the chicken feathers, "My suggestion is to build a small camp, not too big. Cut the big tree and cut it into wooden boards and insert it into a circle with a diameter of more than ten meters. It can block some unhorrisome and small monsters for two or three days. I think the Adventurer would have similar ideas, so he sent Romina."
Christo nodded and said, "You make sense, it's just that cutting trees and other things are a bit troublesome."
Charles pointed to the two men who were leading a donkey to drink water downstream and said, "You ask them for help in this matter, you can listen to their opinions more. They are in a downturn now. If you can get along well with them, you will benefit for life in the future."
After hearing his words, Christo left thoughtfully, walked over and chatted with the two people who were checking the donkey for parasites.
Not long after, Stella came to Charles and asked curiously: "What delicious food are you preparing?"
Charles pointed to the golden-skin chicken that was being washed and said, "There is nothing good to eat, just roast the chicken and use the internal organs to make soup."
Stella said excitedly: "Nidhogg just found a hive that we can use to roast chicken!"
Charles nodded, the honey-sauce roasted chicken was also good.
He looked at Stella and asked curiously, "Why are you still wearing a helmet and a mask, don't you take it off?"
Stella hummed twice and said mischievously: "I am too ugly, I'm afraid I will scare you!"
Charles curled his lips, pointed his chin in the direction of Christo downstream, and said, "I think you are afraid of scaring him."
"Huh?" Stella asked him curiously, "How did you know?"
Charles smiled and said, "I have met Brother Glasses several times, you look quite similar."
Stella was stunned for a moment, then hugged her stomach and laughed.
"Do you all call him that?" Stella asked after she recovered. "It's so interesting. Can you tell me how you met?"
Charles shook his head and said, "This is not a place for talking and chatting. Let's talk about it after completing the task."
Everyone was busy next time, Charles was responsible for preparing today's dinner, and the others were busy building the camp.
Camp construction is not difficult for these people who have extraordinary power, and it is completed without much time.
Chris Dien was experienced in this kind of thing. He directed everyone to cut down the trees and cut out the trunks, then sharpened the two ends and inserted them into the ground. Finally, he sharpened the two ends and inserted them into the surrounding ground as if he was a horse.
"It's really troublesome." Dimi complained again while drinking chicken and wild vegetable soup, "We'll stay for one night, so why not make it so complicated. It's better to have this strength to rest for a while and cut two more sharp-toothed dragons tomorrow."
Chris Dian, who was gnawing a piece of baked golden-skinned chicken with honey sauce, felt like he was lying down and was shot at him, because Dimi was always aiming at him when complaining, but Charles suggested that he agreed that he was just providing some technical guidance, and he seemed to be the one who was in charge of this matter.
However, Chris Dienne ignored him, because the identity gap was too big, so he lost his price.
Christo discovered something was wrong, so he said, "This is not a waste of time. With the protection of the wall, we can sleep peacefully without fear of being attacked by monsters."
The captain still has to give face. Dimi said angrily: "If there are monsters coming, I will stab them to death with one sword, so that they will regret being born! Even today, those monsters have been hidden, otherwise you can see how people from the Knowledge City deal with those monsters!"
As soon as he heard him mention the knowledge city, the eyes of several people lit up again.
Seeing this, Dimi began to talk about his heroic deeds of fighting against the undead skeletons in the space gate.
But this time Christo frowned and found that something was wrong.
