A broken wooden pillar can be sold for money. The young man has learned a lot today.
"If you need it, I can give it to you."
The young man is not a person who is blind to money.
"I still like to buy." Lin Xi refused the boy's gift.
The young man looked at his sister with some confusion.
Because she often set up stalls to do business, the little girl had an idea: "Let's take that pillar as the three gold coins. This sister has already paid for it."
Just now, Bai Yueguang gave me three more gold coins.
Lin Xi nodded and did not shirk anymore.
What is good in his eyes may be worthless in the eyes of others.
The young man's original intention was to deliver the wooden pillar early tomorrow morning, but Lin Xi didn't want to wait that long.
"It's getting late, and it's not safe for you to go back. How about this? I'll ask White Fang and White Claw to take you back, and bring me the wooden pillar when you come back." Lin Xi said.
When White Fang and White Claw came over, the brother and sister were really startled.
Is this a World of Warcraft? It looks so scary!
"Come up!"
White Claw leaned down and said to the two brothers and sister who were in a daze.
The brother and sister were shocked again. They never expected that the demon wolf could still speak.
Surprised and frightened, the brother and sister couldn't resist this kindness. They each mounted a magic wolf and ran towards home.
Both White Fang and White Claw had slowed down very slowly, but the brother and sister were still nervously holding on to their snow-white hair for fear of falling.
Finally, we arrived home without any danger.
They were a few ordinary adobe houses. The yard was deserted, but there were a lot of debris piled up.
"Where is the pillar?" White Fang asked hurriedly, wanting to go back early.
The young man pointed to the thatched house on one side: "That's the one on the outside."
White Fang stopped talking nonsense, walked over, bit the pillar and pulled it out. With a loud bang, the thatched house collapsed, and the pillar was forcefully pulled out.
Then, White Fang and White Claw disappeared like the wind, much faster than when they arrived.
"Brother, what do you think they bought that pillar for?" the little girl asked in confusion.
"have no idea."
"Fortunately, we still have one left and didn't burn it."
"Tomorrow morning, we will borrow a carriage and go to the town to pick up father." The young man said with firm eyes.
"Um!"
...
White Fang and White Claw quickly brought the wooden pillar back.
"Lin Xi, is this a very precious wood?"
Bai Yueguang couldn't help but ask when she saw Lin Xi looking at the wooden pillars she had just brought back.
"This is the 'Lightning Strike Wood'. Its preciousness is not because of what kind of tree it is, but because after it was struck by lightning, its internal veins were opened up." Lin Xi explained.
Bai Yueguang didn't understand, so she simply asked: "Lin Xi, what can it do?"
"There are many uses," Lin Xi smiled, and continued, "First of all, it can be used to carve 'wooden talismans', and it can also be made into wooden magical objects. Buddhist wooden fish and rosary beads can be made from this wood.
, and can also be made into special flower pots to plant those medicinal herbs that are difficult to survive."
"Lin Xi, can you make it now?" Bai Yueguang asked again, wanting to know more.
"I think we can try to carve some kinds of 'wooden talismans'." Lin Xi thought for a moment and said.
Although he has no spiritual power, he has the power of the holy soul. Some special talismans can be made with the power of the soul alone. I think the effect of using the power of the holy soul will be better.
"Lin Xi, what is the 'wooden talisman'?" Bai Yueguang seemed to have endless questions.
"It's very troublesome to explain. Once I make it later, you will know what the 'wooden talisman' is." Lin Xi did not explain any more.
The sumptuous dinner is finally ready.
There were a lot of dishes today, and everyone had some of them.
Under the starry sky, everyone gathers around the campfire and tastes delicious food. The journey is a kind of enjoyment.
Just when everyone was about to eat, the sound of a carriage came from the distance.
At this time, there were very few horse-drawn carriages passing by on the road, not to mention that the horse-drawn carriage was moving very fast, as if it was in a hurry.
"It doesn't look like an ordinary merchant. The man on horseback in front looks like a guard or an adventurer."
Looking at the approaching carriage, Bai Yueguang whispered.
"They seem to have slowed down. Why are they coming towards us?" Leorio followed.
"Did you get lost?"
"Look, a man has dismounted and is coming this way."
"..."
Everyone stopped talking and looked at the man walking over.
Although the sky is already dark, the moonlight is very bright today, and you can see that the man is tall and tall, and his clothes are full of dust, as if he has traveled a long way.
"Excuse me, can I ask you if there is a place to eat nearby?" The man came up and asked politely.
"It's still far away from the town. I don't know if there are places to eat in the nearby villages." Leorio stood up and said.
"Guys, can we buy some food from you?" the man suddenly asked after being silent for a moment.
"You want to buy food from us?" Bai Yueguang interrupted.
"We've all finished our food, but unfortunately we've walked such a long way without seeing a place to eat," the man said with a sheepish look on his face.
"If you can come early, there will be a market here." After a pause, Bai Yueguang added, "Well, you can call all your people over and have something with us. We happen to have prepared a lot of food today."
"How embarrassing." The man didn't know whether he should accept it.
"When you are out and someone needs help, just call all your people over."
Bai Yueguang is hospitable, and because of this personality, she has made many friends.
The man walked back and probably had to discuss it with the people in his team.
After a while, the man who left earlier came over again, accompanied by his companions, a total of seven people, five men and two women.
The five men are all fighting masters, with sword-like weapons hanging on their waists.
As for the two women, one is older and the other is just a girl.
The older woman has a strong build, her hair is tied into a ponytail, and she has a short blade on each side of her waist.
And the girl looked like she stood out from the crowd. Her snow-white clothes were painted with golden patterns, and she was holding a long scepter in her hand, the head of which seemed to be plated with gold.
"Excuse me!"
The speaker this time was a middle-aged man with a tangled beard and a very decent appearance.
"Harriman?" Leorio sounded surprised.
The middle-aged man was stunned, looked at Leorio carefully, and said uncertainly: "Leolio?"
"Oh my God, Harriman, it's really you!"
At this moment, Leorio finally confirmed the other party's identity and went straight to meet him.
Gu Hao
"Leolio, you...why are you here?" The middle-aged man also showed a surprised expression.
It was like meeting an old friend in a foreign country, with unexpected surprises.
"Harriman, you have changed a lot. I almost didn't recognize you just now."
Leorio hugged the other person, and then touched the other person's chest.
"Your changes are no smaller than mine." Harriman laughed.
"More than ten years have passed by. I never expected that we would meet here. Nothing else. I must have a drink later." Leo Leo was in a happy mood.
He and Harriman were comrades-in-arms. They were both members of the stormtrooper battalion back then.
The past life and death, the past laughter and curses, seemed to have happened last night.
"Harriman, what have you been busy with these past few years?"
Since we are acquaintances, there is no need for everyone to be so restrained.
Moreover, at this time, Lin Xi and the others had all eaten and returned to the tent, which gave Leorio a chance to reminisce about old times.
"I became a mercenary. In recent years, I have been doing mining and transporting mines in the Turquoise Wind Valley," Harriman said.
"I've heard of the Tusse Wind Valley. I've heard about that place. It's rich in all kinds of ores. It's said that the wind in that place is very evil."
Leorio said as he distributed the food.
After staying with Lin Xi for a long time, he even had the habit of hoarding food.
To treat these people to a meal, his own small grain depot is enough.
"The wind there is not only evil, it is terrifying." Harriman said seriously.
"How do you say this?" Leorio asked curiously.
"When the wind blows there, it's like super-large wind magic being activated. Many people die in the storm every day."
"Isn't that very dangerous?" Leorio was shocked.
"In fact, if you master the rules and avoid them in advance, you don't have to worry. The locals have their own way of controlling the wind direction."
"If you have a chance, I'd better go and see it." Leorio smiled.
"Leorio, where did you go after we said goodbye?" Harriman asked about Leorio.
Leorio then told the story of how he came to be an instructor in "Messe City", and then told about his subsequent encounters with Lin Xi and others, after some deletions.
"So, you are an adventurer now?"
Leorio nodded: "Yes, I don't have a fixed place now and I am adventuring everywhere."
"Then why don't you come to our mercenary group?" Harriman invited.
"Well..." Leorio smiled awkwardly, "My companions and I have just embarked on an adventure trip. If we don't want to wander around anymore, we will join you!"
Harriman knew that this was a tactful refusal, so he did not insist anymore. He just said, "You come to the Turtle Wind Valley, and I welcome you at any time."
Leorio and Harriman chatted a lot, but rarely asked about each other's companions, because they didn't want to embarrass each other.
After finishing the meal, Harriman got up and left.
"Old friend, thank you for your hospitality. I'll invite you next time we meet." Harriman patted Leorio's shoulder.
"You guys are still on your way so late?" Leorio was very puzzled.
"I have some urgent matters and I need to rush back quickly," Harriman explained.
"Well, you have a safe journey. If there is a chance, I will go to the 'Turkish Wind Valley'."
"You can only come to me. You adventurers are at home all over the world and are wandering. Let's have a good talk next time we meet."
After saying their final farewells, Harriman and his companions departed.
Early the next morning, after breakfast, Lin Xi and others were about to set off.
"Lord Lin Xi, can we change our route to the 'Sleeping Forest' a little bit?"
Leorio suddenly came to Lin Xi and asked for advice.
"Why?" Lin Xi asked.
"We changed the road and passed through the "Turkish Wind Valley", which is rich in mineral resources. My friend from yesterday worked there."
After a pause, Leorio added: "My friend seems to be in some trouble. I can see that he doesn't want me to get involved..."
"You can change the route."
Before Leorio finished speaking, Lin Xi agreed.
"Don't worry, sir. With the revised route, we haven't taken too far of a detour. If we can go straight through the Turtle Wind Valley, we'll still be taking a shortcut." Leorio said with a smile.
"Just make up your mind on this matter!"
Lin Xi trusted Leorio very much and admired his behavior of sharing worries for his friends.
The carriage started and headed towards the newly planned route.
In the carriage, Landuo suddenly mentioned: "The 'Turtu Sai Wind Valley' is adjacent to the 'Wind Rain Forest Valley'. Maybe we can stop by the address of the 'Wind Elf' to have a look."
Hearing these words, Liuying Rose suddenly raised her head.
She has never been to the "Valley of the Wind Forest", not only because her grandmother did not let her go, but also because even if she went there, she would not know where the "Wind Elves" originally lived?
"Will we go to the Valley of the Wind and Rain Forest?" Liuying Rose asked Lin Xi.
"If you want to go, we can go for a walk." Lin Xi said nonchalantly.
His original intention on this trip was to find a place full of spiritual energy. He didn't care much about where he passed, which route he took, or how long it took.
"Thank you!" Liuying Rose was very excited.
She could finally visit the place where her grandmother once lived.
She was finally able to go to the scene to investigate the tragedy of the "Wind Elf" clan back then.
This trip finally made some sense to her.
The carriage was driving at high speed. Suddenly, without knowing what happened, Leorio suddenly pulled on the reins.
The carriage came to an emergency stop.
"Leorio, what happened?"
Due to inertia, Bai Yueguang's whole body was squeezed onto Lin Xi's body, but she didn't seem to want to move immediately.
Leorio didn't answer, but jumped off the carriage and ran towards the ditch on one side.
"This...this is..."
Looking at the overturned carriage, Leorio's expression changed drastically.
He remembered clearly that the carriage belonged to Harriman and his companions.
Looking around, Leorio didn't see anyone. There were low shrubs nearby, making it impossible to hide anyone.
Leorio was so anxious that he couldn't help shouting: "Harriman! Harriman!"
He was very worried about the safety of his friend and his group.
Whoosh!
At this moment, Bai Yueguang suddenly flashed in front of him: "Leolio, Lin Xi asked me to tell you that there is a dilapidated church about twenty-five miles ahead on the left, and your companions are there.
, some of them suffered hand injuries, but their lives were not in danger."
Leorio immediately wanted to run over, but was stopped by Bai Yueguang.
Bai Yueguang said again: "Sister Lan Duo has already passed there first, so you don't have to worry."
