Chapter 519 Gold Mining Village
The next day, Bing Zhixie flew over the southern forest on the emperor dragon. A giant shadow brushed against the treetops. Under the strong wind, those trees were almost broken. Lin All the birds and animals below were frightened and ran away like crazy.
"How can I find her in the vast forest?" Bing Zhixie stood at the head of the dragon, overlooking the mountains and the earth. The big trees passed by very quickly, so fast that they couldn't even see clearly. .
"Zafino." Bing Zhixie called out to Dilong, who immediately raised his head and roared, as if calling Alice, hoping she could hear him.
However, this is not the first time that Dilong has chirped. Even though its sound can spread to several kilometers or even dozens of kilometers, it still has not received a response from Alice and Hurlington.
night.
The crystal stones embedded in the clothes were illuminated, and the weak light could only shine down to the feet. The two people were walking alone in the dark forest, and there was silence around them, and they could not hear anything.
Alice walked closely behind Hurlington, looking back from time to time as if to be wary of what was behind her. Feeling the fear in his master's heart, little Yeck hid in his master's clothes and shivered.
"Hey!" Hullington suddenly shouted.
“What?”
"Hehehe, it's nothing. Look at you, you're so scared, hahahaha." Hullington couldn't help laughing.
Alice glared at him: "Asshole, it's fun, isn't it?"
Hughington suppressed a smile and said: "No, you are too nervous, what are you afraid of? Ah? After all, you have been alone in the woods for a few days, are you still scared?”
“I’m too lazy to pay attention to you.” Alice walked aside in anger. But after walking for a while, he slowly and unconsciously moved closer to Hullington.
Hughington said: "Hey, there's nothing to be afraid of. You've beaten those things, why are you still afraid?"
"I'm not afraid of that, I'm afraid...don't you think this atmosphere is scary?" Alice said uneasily.
Hughington laughed and said: "I am a complete materialist and don't believe in that. It's just that if we can't find the military camp in the gold mining area, we will all starve to death."< br>
“Hey, I haven’t eaten for another day.” Their stomachs were growling all the way.
After walking for a while, Hullington waved his hand and said: "Oh, it can't be done, it can't be done. If I keep walking, my legs will be broken. Let me take a rest."
"Don't take a rest. , it’s dangerous to rest here. You’d better use floating magic to rest.”
Hullington ignored so much, found a tree, sat down and said, "Since entering this misty forest, I haven't eaten anything, and the magic power in my body has only been depleted and cannot be restored. I still have floating magic, If I encounter a large group of monsters again, I won’t have the strength to deal with them. , you have to let me take a break."
Alice said: "If it doesn't work, let's just eat the fruits here."
"No, we'd better be careful. , This kind of risk cannot be taken," Hullington said.
Alice let Yeck crawl out of her clothes and said, "I'd better let Yeck take you to rest for a while. I don't feel comfortable stopping here."
" That's fine." Hullington stood up and was about to jump on Yeck's balloon, but suddenly stopped.
"What's wrong?" Alice asked.
Shurlington passed between Yeck and Alice, looking carefully at the darkness ahead.
Alice also looked at it: "What's there? I didn't see anything."
Hughington didn't speak, and walked forward, the spar on his body glowed Also move forward. After walking a few steps, I saw that the dead leaves and branches on the ground were much lighter, and further forward, the surrounding trees were also sparse.
"Is it an open space?" Alice stepped forward quickly: "Ah! It's a house, it's a house, Hughington!" she cheered.
Of course, Hullington also saw it, and he couldn't help but feel happy, and said: "It seems that we are lucky."
"Yes." Alice nodded happily, and the two hurriedly walked towards the 'military camp' .
When they got closer to the house, they discovered that this was not a military camp. There was a swaying wooden sign hanging on a tree outside, with the words "Gold Mining Village" written in red paint on it.
Alice read: "Gold Mine Village. It seems that this place is not far from the gold mine. Let's go in." Walking into the village, Alice looked at the dark houses on the left and right: " It seems that everyone in this village has moved away. Is it because of the monsters nearby? ”
"It should be the reason, but maybe it's not moving." Hullington stopped and looked at the pieces of orange peels at his feet: "Look at these orange peels, they should obviously be from a few days ago, that is to say, a few days ago." There were still people in this village before, but within a few days they were all gone. The transformation of the monsters into corpse monsters may have happened in the past few days. When I was in Knop City, I heard about the mountains and forests shrouded in fog, but I had never heard of such monsters here.”
"What happened within a few days, how many days did these monsters turn into?" Alice didn't Jin was afraid and said: "What kind of thing has such a strong power."
Hughington said: "I'm not sure what it is, but as an alchemist, I can be sure that it has something to do with the poison element. Related. ”
“Poison element?”
“ Hmm." Hullington said: "If this is a poisonous element that is changed through magic and spreads over a large area, this can explain why all the monsters in this forest suddenly turned into immortal monsters. Maybe, now we are also poisoned.”
Alice panicked: "You said we were poisoned? I...why can't I feel it?"
"I didn't feel it either. This is the change and strange characteristics of the poison element." Xiuling He suddenly said: "Usually there are only some strange poisonous monsters and minerals, or advanced poisonous magicians. They can poison people without being noticed, and it is difficult or even impossible to detect. Capital of the Demon Moon Empire There is not a poisonous demon Is it the famous Xiulin family?"
"There is such a family. I heard it from my teacher." Alice touched her face: "So I was poisoned?"
"Maybe not, let's not talk about it now." Hullington looked at the house next to him: "Let's go to this house to find something to eat."
—— Zhi吖吖……
The old wooden door was opened, and because there was no defensive magic circle, Hullington easily walked into the house.
Alice poked her head and looked into the dark room: "There is really no one there."
Hughington has a bright crystal on his body, so he should leave first Entering the house, he soon found the formation of the spar lamp on the wall next to the door. He injected a little bit of magic into the formation, and soon the formation began to operate on its own. The spar also lit up.
Seeing the light turn on, Alice felt much relieved. After closing the door, she quickly found the kitchen to find something to eat.
Hughington was in the living room observing the furnishings in the room.
After a while, Alice ran out of the kitchen and said, "What are you doing? Come on, I found the freezer."
Open the freezer, eggs, milk, papaya, ham, etc. There were also two plates of leftover cold dishes.
Hughington rummaged through the freezer and found half a bottle of iced ‘Lhasa’.
"Wow, the people living here live a really good life, and there is such good wine." Alice asked: "Can these things be eaten?"
Hurlington thought for a while and said: "We have to eat both the edible and the inedible, otherwise what should we do?" As he said this, he uncorked the bottle and took a swig.
"Hey! You..." Alice knew that he was trying it on herself first to see if the food was edible.
Hughington breathed a long sigh of relief: "It's so comfortable. I can't stand it without drinking for a few days. This is a gold mining area, where Guiniz's country's income is, so there will be such a good supply. It’s normal to come here.”
“Give me a taste.” Alice was so embarrassed that she snatched the bottle from his hand and started drinking.
"Hey, hey, hey, don't finish drinking, leave some for me." After Alice drank, she shook her head: "Why are you so anxious? There are still a few more in the box."
Hughington looked down and saw that there was indeed a cardboard box next to the freezer: "You may die if you eat it, but you will definitely die if you don't eat it. No matter what, let's eat this food first."
"You go ahead and make it, it won't taste good." Alice drank again.
Hughington shook his head helplessly: "Okay, you are the princess, you have the final say."
Alice smiled: "Then I'll go to the hall and wait for the meal. .”
