Chapter 292 Challenge Lin Hai
It’s raining. It didn’t seem heavy in the morning. It’s raining heavily. I put on a raincoat made of tough palm-sized leaves like scales and don’t delay. The fields are busy.
By noon, the swamp at the foot of the mountain was filled with water, with a piece of black charcoal floating on it.
When it gets dark, you can see the moon and stars when you look up.
Unexpectedly, early the next morning, lightning was dancing in the dark clouds like a giant python, and the thunder did not stop for a moment. I don’t know which god in the sky drained the fish pond, and the water fell to the ground.
In a town without clocks, people can only tell the time by whether they are hungry.
The rain stopped when it was dark on the third day. Almost the entire village's labor force rushed out of their homes and went to the farmland without even eating breakfast. They saved the crops that could be saved, but they were damaged by the rain. The fruits and vegetables that fell were food from the past two days.
Frederick came to the wall and saw that the swamp at the foot of the mountain had turned into a mud pond full of yellow mud. Many animals in the water came to the surface to breathe. There were a lot of charcoal and blackened tree trunks floating on the water. And some grass roots that the wildfires failed to burn.
The hillside on the east side has been washed into an earthy yellow color by the rain, and many tree roots are exposed. If it rains a few more times, they will probably be washed down the mountain.
Hai Jiaqi came over at noon and saw that Frederick was still here, and asked him curiously: "What are you looking at?"
Frederick pointed to the swamp that had become much clearer and said: "I found that they should be able to succeed. If the rain continues, the mud washed down from the mountain will fill up the swamp sooner or later. If a dam is built along the river, it will be very easy to It is possible to make the land much higher than the river surface, but there is a problem. If the groundwater cannot be drained out, there will be some problems with the land."
Hai Jiaqi nodded seriously and said, "I don't understand. . ”
Frederick laughed. He has specialization in his profession, but in fact, what he said may not be right.
At this time, someone invited them to have lunch. When Hai Jiaqi saw the staple food in his eyes, he said in surprise: "What we are eating are gold bars!"
What is in the bowl today is not The boiled peas were the same as the previous few days, but vermicelli as thick as a finger, which looked particularly beautiful against the clear chicken soup and green vegetable leaves.
Hai Jiaqi and his students have been treating the residents of the town in recent days. Aisha has prepared the best conditions for them in the village, and the diet is on par with the hunters in the village.
Frederick smiled and said to her: "I taught them how to make it yesterday. The material is peas. It tastes better and is less prone to flatulence."
These pea vermicelli are also easy to make. It's simple. Grind the dried peas into powder, add cold water, stir it and filter it through a cloth. Then boil it until the water evaporates and let it cool. The filtered soybean meal can be eaten by people or fed to chickens.
Hai Jiaqi ate a piece of pea vermicelli and thought it was pretty good. He said, "It's pretty good. I have bad teeth, so it doesn't take much effort to eat."
Frederick ate while eating. Said: "If it can be cut into thin slices and dried into slices, it should be able to be stored for a long time. It is also convenient to take into the forest and eat. It can be eaten as soon as it is boiled in boiling water."
Haijiaqi thought for a moment and said, "It would be great if that were the case. Those boat runners and Warcraft hunters would definitely like it."
Frederick just smiled. It's up to them how they use this to make a fuss in the future. .
Hai Jiaqi was also well-informed and began to think about it. Later, he made money by helping Bila and others sell dried vermicelli.
In the afternoon, Frederick returned to the woodshed where he lived and began to organize his weapons, equipment and outdoor supplies.
He came here mainly to hone his martial arts skills in Linhai. It was just a matter of convenience to help Bila, and they still needed to do the specific work themselves.
At this time, Rosanna poked her head in and asked timidly: "Duke Wesson, can you excuse me?"
Frederick was checking the whetstone, and when he saw it was her, he replied: " Come in and talk about anything. "
He has been helping out at the chicken farm these past two days, and has become more familiar with Rosanna. This is the first time he has seen this little girl speak so hesitantly.
Rosanna came in and hesitated for a moment before asking Frederick: "Excuse me, Lord Duke, can I learn magic from you?"
Frederick looked up at her and answered. Said: "I won't stay here long. I can only teach you one or two magic uses and tricks. If you want to learn systematically, I won't have enough time."
Rosanna immediately replied: "No problem, I have learned some ordinary magic before, but I lack the attack method that can be used alone." After hearing this, Frederick understood that life here must be supported by force, otherwise You can only be like a sheep in the mouth of a wolf. It is easy to become stronger.
It was just that he was a little embarrassed and said: "I will go into the woods tomorrow. I will teach you when I come back in a few days."
Frederick has already I asked the locals for a place. It was a place where the monsters in the surrounding areas drank water. There was a hunter's cabin nearby, so I didn't have to worry about not having to fight monsters.
Rosanna lowered her head and said hesitantly: "Can I go with you? In fact, I am not the only one who wants to learn from you. If we go together, we can also take care of you."
Frederick thought for a while, then shook his head and rejected: "No, the place I went to is very dangerous, and I can't take care of you. You'd better wait until I come back. This matter is non-negotiable."
Rosanna Seeing how determined he was, he finally had no choice but to leave.
That night, Hai Jiaqi came to Frederick with a smile and gave him a large bag of medicine commonly used by hunters.
“I underestimated you.” Haijiaqi said with a wicked smile, “I thought you couldn’t control it.”
Frederick was putting the medicine bag in his backpack , and asked him strangely: "What can't be controlled?"
Hai Jiaqi smiled and said in a low voice: "Actually, I used to be a doctor in a noble family. Our master was killed by the Queen Mother, so I ran away and hid my name."
"Here is There are many aristocratic ladies who look down on ordinary men, but they can’t live without children. How could they let a man as strong and powerful as you go?”
“Hey, someone has come to ask me in the past two days. Is there any pregnancy medicine?”
Frederick heard a black line and immediately understood what was going on.
In the end, he could only shake his head. He had no intention of leaving an illegitimate child outside.
The blood relationship these days is a strong bond. It is one thing for two people to forget each other after a passionate collision, but it is another thing to leave the bond behind.
Although the identity of an illegitimate child follows the mother's, and the man can deny it, Frederick felt that he could not do anything to abandon the child.
So he made a decision quickly.
"Please wait a moment." Frederick said to Haijiaqi, "I am writing a letter, but don't tell anyone else. When Bila comes back, you can help me give it to him."< br>
As he spoke, he took out paper and pen and wrote a letter to the effect that he decided to challenge the king of the forest and sea everywhere in order to challenge the limit.
Hai Jiaqi said from the side: "It seems that you have made up your mind. No wonder you can achieve great things at this age."
Then he added: "Be careful in the forest and don't encounter the mushroom goblin. "
Frederick looked up and asked him: "What are mushroom goblins?"
Hai Jiaqi said seriously: "They appear in places with many mushrooms in the forest during the rainy season. Very beautiful women with no clothes on their bodies, only wearing mushrooms as big as tables. Don't think it's a good thing when you meet them. They are only women. They will drain men dry in order to reproduce. Only a few strong men can survive. Come down.”
Frederick blinked and said helplessly: “Isn’t this just poisonous mushroom poisoning?”
Hai Jiaqi burst out laughing and said, "That's how you are impressed."
Frederick was speechless.
