Chapter 952 Is it so sudden?
Originally, after they went up the mountain and determined the location of the Life Spirit Tree, Zhou Xu did not plan to come down in a short time, but planned to explore the entire Qingshui Mountain first. .
Otherwise they wouldn’t each be carrying a bag.
But now the situation is different.
These five giant eagle eggs are directly related to the development of their Giant Eagle Knights in the future. If they carry these five giant eagle eggs over the mountains and ridges now, if one or two are broken on the way, then The loss would be huge.
Zhou Xu obviously didn't want to take this risk. Thinking of this, he directly ordered five elf knights.
"The five of you will each escort a giant eagle egg down the mountain. When the boat comes back, you will take the boat directly and send these five giant eagle eggs to the giant eagle training ground in Xianyang City."
"After delivery..."
Zhou Xu thought about it for two seconds.
“Don’t come here anymore. I’m not sure if I’ll still be here by then. Just go to Black Moon City and wait. Oh, by the way, there’s also Xiao Zhang’s side. You guys are passing by. When the time comes, take him down with you.”
"Yes!"
In response, with giant eagle eggs on their backs, the five elf knights followed the order and descended the mountain.
After watching the five elf knights leave, Zhou Xu’s eyes once again fell on the thousand-year-old life spirit tree in front of him.
If nothing unexpected happens, this should be the oldest tree of life in the mountain.
He directly regarded this thousand-year-old life spirit tree as a landmark in the mountain, and then explored around the landmark in circles.
According to this exploration mode, after being busy for a period of time, Zhou Xu's gains are really not small.
At the same time, it is also more certain that it is necessary to directly encircle this Qingshui Mountain.
Probably to ensure the nutrients needed for their respective growth, the Life Spirit Tree and the Life Spirit Tree will not grow too close to each other.
Although it is not dense, in a sense, it grows all over this deep mountain.
And also let him thoroughly confirm that the life spirit tree here does not only have two levels: 'thousand-year-old' and 'ordinary-level'.
In the process of continuous exploration, he also discovered two trees with a level of 700 years, six trees with a level of 500 years, and seventeen trees with a level of 300 years.
Of course, the most ordinary life spirit trees are ordinary ones. So far, he has found a total of seventy-one.
Finding the back, Zhou Xu even felt a little numb.
At the same time, he calmed down and thought about it, and there seemed to be nothing wrong with him.
According to the introduction of this life spirit tree, in the old civilization period, it was the raw material used by the elves to make staffs and bows and arrows!
Not to mention the staff, the arrows needed for bows and arrows are consumables.
You can’t guarantee that all the arrows will be recovered after every battle, right?
Under this premise, if there are not enough raw materials for making arrows, it will simply not be able to support the consumption of an army.
So it is actually normal to say that there are a large number of life spirit trees, otherwise the raw materials would not be available.
What is really scarce is the old life spirit tree!
Like those that are one thousand years old, seven hundred years old, or five hundred years old, the older the vintage, the better the material.
The produced staffs and bows will naturally have better effects.
During this period, Zhou Xu also pondered for a while about the year difference between those high-year life spirit trees.
Except for the one thousand-year-old tree and the seven-hundred-year-old tree, which are separated by three hundred years, the others are all separated by two hundred years. At the moment, he couldn't figure out whether it was an accident or if there was some connection.
He had no clue and couldn't figure out things, so he didn't think about them for the time being. Zhou Xu was still busy exploring things.
As of today, they have carried out the exploration work of Qingshui Mountain to a close.
By the way, I finally figured out the specific location of the thousand-year-level life spirit tree, and drew a decent map of Qingshui Mountain.
To put it simply, this mountain col is located at the easternmost edge of Qingshui Mountain, on another small mountain range near the edge.
That small mountain range is the mountain next to Green Forest Port.
Before their big ship was built, the exploration team wanted to try to pass through the edge of the mountains to see if they could climb up the mountain road for exploration. As a result, a cliff on the top of the mountain cut off their way, and there was a fast river below. .
That’s right, it’s the big river leading to the port of Nanjing Factory.
Unfortunately, the field of view was too narrow at that time. If they had opened it wider, they would have noticed that this thousand-year-old life spirit tree was in the col of the small hill across the river!
You can't go down from that mountain, you have to go around Qingshui Mountain.
After quickly completing the exploration of the remaining areas of Qingshui Mountain, the group headed by Zhou Xu slowly descended the mountain and arrived at the inn at the foot of the mountain.
This wave of people have been in the mountains for almost half a month, and everyone has a look of disgrace.
"Stationmaster Wang, prepare a place for us to rest and boil some more bath water."
Although they are not the same as the savages in the mountains at this time, they are half I haven't taken a shower for a month, and I do stink.
It is definitely impossible for Zhou Xu to go to the next place like this.
The staff on duty at the inn here usually live here directly, so there is naturally a place for bathing and resting.
After receiving the order, Stationmaster Wang did not dare to delay and quickly got to work.
“Let’s take a bath here first, rest for the night, and set off to the next place early tomorrow morning.”
This night is the best time Zhou Xu has spent in the past half month. The most comfortable night of sleep even made him, who always had a precise biological clock, oversleep. When he woke up, it was almost eight o'clock.
As soon as Zhou Xu got up, he heard a series of fierce whistling sounds coming from outside the dormitory.
Noticing the movement, he quickly put on his coat and walked outside.
As soon as the door opened, in the open space outside the dormitory, a figure doing morning exercises suddenly caught his eye. It was Hilke.
At this time, Silk was using the ‘body-building boxing’ taught by Jie Liancheng.
This is a set of boxing techniques that Xie Liancheng modified based on the training needs of the warriors here. It has little practical value, but it can exercise the most muscles in the human body to the maximum extent.
This 'body-building boxing' was divided into three levels by him: 'beginner body-building boxing', 'intermediate body-building boxing' and 'advanced body-building boxing'.
The higher the level, the higher the requirements for boxing practitioners. Silk is currently practicing intermediate body-building boxing. Advanced body-building boxing is now within Dazhou. Only Xie Liancheng and Zhou Chongshan can practice it. .
During this process, I don’t know if the morning light shining on the sweat produced light and shadow. I saw that at this moment, there was a faint floating light on the surface of Silk’s body, which was constantly flowing there, making it appear completely. The figures all looked dazzling!
After a set of punches, Hilke, who had noticed Zhou Xu's presence for a long time, slowly turned his head and looked over.
"Your Majesty, I seem to have made a breakthrough."
"Ah, is it so sudden?"
"..."
