Chapter 201: Crowded
"Brother, you can't go any further!"
Near the ice field, two small figures are in a stalemate.
The older one was a boy, wearing clothes made of animal skins, carrying a bamboo basket on his back, and the straw sandals on his feet had already broken several big holes, and his face was full of determination at this time: "If you don't go to the Ice Valley Wasteland, how can you collect enough medicinal materials to treat Daddy, and pay the city lord's offering?" ”
"It's too dangerous there, it's an uncultivated raw land, poisonous insects and beasts will kill you!"
A little girl was holding his arm, and there were already tears in her big watery eyes.
"You let go!"
The boy had made up his mind and pursed his lips.
"I won't let go!"
The little girl insisted, the two of them were entangled for a moment, the boy finally got impatient, and as soon as he raised his hand, the girl stumbled under her feet and fell directly to the ground.
"Of course I know the danger in the depths of the ice valley, but if we can't hand over the offerings, why is our family embarrassed to stay in the village?!"
The young man said, "And without the protection of the village formation, we will all die!" ”
"Woo ......"
The little girl naturally knew this, and sat on the ground and cried.
"Ah Xian, don't worry, I still have some understanding of the Death Wasteland, and I have also practiced martial arts, so I still have a certain degree of certainty!"
The young man comforted, his face straightened, and he was about to embark on an unknown road to fight for his life.
But at that moment, his steps suddenly stopped.
Because in sight, a huge black shadow gradually walked out of the wasteland.
It was a giant white tiger like a small mountain, with black markings like chains on its body, and it smelled mysterious.
"Roar!"
It leaped forward and glanced at it casually, and the young girl suddenly couldn't move, and was so shocked by the tiger's might that she lost her mind.
'Too ...... It's too powerful......'
The young man's legs kept shaking, but a voice roared in his heart: "Just at the border, there is such a fierce beast that I can't resist, is this the horror of the ice field?" No wonder the village has not allowed us to go out in the dark, and we have handed it over to the city lord every year to worship, maintaining the formation......"
Stompe! Stompe!
As the giant tiger continued to approach, the cold sweat on the young man's forehead also gathered more and more, and his teeth were clenched, but he couldn't say a word.
Cluck!
He could barely stand, but the little girl next to him, Ah Xian, was trembling in her teeth, and a smell of urine came out of her crotch.
At this time, the white tiger like a demon god lowered his head, revealing the figure behind him, and opened his mouth to say a strange word.
Although he didn't understand, after the other party spoke, the originally solemn atmosphere suddenly disappeared.
The surroundings seemed to have come from winter to spring all of a sudden, and the palpitating tiger power had disappeared without a trace.
"Your Excellency!"
Whoever can subdue such a fierce beast must also be an amazing warrior, and the young man hurriedly saluted with a respectful demeanor.
"Huh? Who are you? ”
Listening to the young man's words before, Fang Yuan's eyelids jumped.
The language spoken by the other party is not the official language of the original mainland, but it is very similar to the lingua franca of Daqian!
As for why he talks nonsense?
In Yang Fan's dream before, he had already practiced this skill.
But even if you don't have it, it doesn't matter, for the dream master, to learn a foreign language quickly, that is, to fall into a dream.
"The villain is a villager from nearby Panshi Village, Yu Yan, this is my sister Ah Xian!"
Yu gradually hurriedly saluted and stumbled.
"Rock Village?"
The adult on the tiger's back looked more and more puzzled: "There are a lot of people here?" Where are they? ”
Yu gradually became nervous, and his speech suddenly became more stumbling.
After his stumbling explanation, Fang Yuan understood it.
'In this vicinity, there is a human settlement, and it is divided into a large number of villages, and the core is Starfall City! ’
Moreover, this style of speaking, as well as etiquette, all have the shadow of Daqian, could it be the remnants of Daqian's migration? ’
Under the White Tiger Seat, the young man Yu Yan was also secretly looking at the adult.
'Dressed so richly, it must be from the nobles of the city!' ’
In the knowledge of the little boy, the only world he usually touches is his own village, and Starfall City is the center of the whole world, and he can't imagine how wide the outside world is.
"Take me to your village!"
Fang Yuan groaned and spoke directly.
Looking at the young man's hesitant appearance, he couldn't help but say again: "You are carrying a bamboo basket and a medicine hoe, are you going to collect medicine?" I'll hire you to be my guide, and that's the reward! ”
As he spoke, with a wave of his hand, a different flower the size of a bowl, pure white petals, and bright red stamens fell.
"Snow Lotus Red Stamen?"
Yu gradually exclaimed, hurriedly stepped forward, carefully picked it up, and was almost speechless.
Although this was something that Fang Yuan picked casually, for him, it was the hope of the whole family!
"Yes, my lord, I will take you immediately!"
He wiped his tears, put away the medicinal herbs, pulled up his sister Ah Xian, and bowed respectfully.
The little girl was still sluggish, but her brother didn't have to take risks, but he was sure, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, with a pair of big black eyes, and looked at the giant tiger curiously.
"It's hard work, let's go!"
Fang Yuan took out a piece of roast meat, stuffed it into the Cold Ice Sabertooth Tiger, and sent it away.
For him now, a spirit beast that failed to break through the realm of Juyuan is indeed only used as a means of transportation.
Moreover, this beast is too ostentatious, and now that it has come to the human settlement, it is better to let it go.
"Woo!"
The Ice Sabertooth Tiger swallowed the roast meat in one bite, and reluctantly rubbed Fang Yuan's palm with his head, and finally, under his urging, roared, returned to the ice field, and disappeared without a trace in an instant.
"My lord, is this your spirit animal?"
Yu gradually looked at this scene, his eyes were full of envy.
"Spirit beasts? It's kind of reluctant, but it's not for me to raise it, it's just to take what you need......"
Fang Yuan shook his head with a smile and looked at this beast-skinned boy.
Although this person can't see it, his martial arts have actually reached the inner breath realm of the five levels, which is very good.
"Lead the way!"
Thinking of this, he ordered unceremoniously, and seemed to be chatting casually, with the words of a young man.
After all, the other party has no grievances with him, and if he wants to directly search his memory for no reason, he really can't do it.
And, with this young man's knowledge, he may not be able to know more.
Yu gradually led the way in front, and it didn't take long for a simple village to emerge in front of him.
It's really pretty basic!
Fang Yuan was a little speechless for a moment, the so-called village was just a flat piece of land, dozens of clusters of buildings like round steamed buns, which were built extremely firmly, and half of the space was even deeper into the ground.
This structure is not only resistant to wind and cold, but also strong enough to withstand ordinary hazards.
Of course, in terms of aesthetics, you can't expect too much.
In fact, for most villagers, struggling on the line of life and death is the norm, where is there still the mood to think about this.
However, around this village, Fang Yuan's eyes flashed, and he found something different: "Spirit pattern? No...... This is...... Spirit Circle! Although it is very crude, it is indeed a formation! Unexpectedly, there is a formation mage here! ”
"Your Excellency?"
Xu was paying attention for too long, and Yu Yan next to him suddenly asked worriedly: "But what is the problem with the village's village protection formation?" ”
"Who arranged this formation?"
Fang Yuan asked directly.
"Of course, it's the formation mage of Starfall City!"
Although it felt a little strange, Yu gradually replied without thinking: "Every year, our village will offer a large amount of food, elixir, and animal skins to Starfall City, in exchange for the array mage to come and maintain this Rock Formation......
When he said this, his fists clenched, and he obviously made up his mind: "I must become a city man and take my father and sister to the city to enjoy happiness!" ”
"Starfall City?"
Fang Yuan touched his chin: "I really want to see that place!" ”
At this time, they were also spotted in Panshi Village, and after a commotion, a trembling old man walked out with a cigarette pot in his hand.
"Yu Gradually, don't go home yet, don't get hysterical, go to the ice field to die!"
The old man was kind-eyed, and when he saw that Yu Yan and Ah Xian were safe and sound, he was very relieved, and persuaded euphemistically: "Isn't it just a poisonous injury?" It can always be cured, and you don't have to worry about this year's offerings, the big guys get together, there will always be! ”
"Village Chief......
Yu Yan's eyes turned red all of a sudden, and he hurriedly took out the snow lotus red stamen: "This is given to me by this adult, and my family's share this year is enough......"
"Tsk!"
The old village chief looked at it, but he was shocked: "This year, I'm afraid it can only be found on the ice field, right?" Just take a petal and your dad will be saved! ”
He clenched the cigarette pot and hurriedly saluted Fang Yuan: "Thank you for saving your life, little old man quartz, you are the head of this small village, but the adult is from Starfall City?" ”
"Starfall City? It's not ......"
Fang Yuan shook his head.
He also knew now that this Starfall City was the core of the entire region.
The surrounding Hengsha-like villages have to rely on it to barely survive, and of course, they are inevitably exploited.
Because of the protection of the giant city, the safety in the city is naturally the highest, and it is also the goal of all the people in the village for life.
Looking at the suspicious look in the eyes of the old village chief, Fang Yuan smiled in his heart, and casually made up an experience of following his master since he was a child, wandering in the ice field, and wandering uncertainly.
"Your Excellency wants to go to Starfall City?"
After hearing Fang Yuan's request, this Shi Village Chief's vigilance relaxed and smiled heartily: "This is nothing...... It just so happens that we will set up a caravan in the village tomorrow and go to Starfall City, and we will stop by the way! ”
In fact, he was very shrewd in his calculations.
Since Fang Yuan was unfathomable, even he couldn't see the depth clearly, his strength must be extremely strong.
I just lead the way in my own village, but I can get shelter on the road, which can be called killing two birds with one stone, public and private, and it is a big profit! 10
