Chapter 101: Qualification for Survival (1)

On the west of the Tribe Center Plaza, in front of the greenhouse area.

Halen held his head up and looked sluggish, and Karl looked around suspiciously.  

"I really remember that when we came last year, there were only two rows in the greenhouse, why suddenly there were two more rows? What kind of magic is this?" Helen muttered dreamily.  

"No, Halen, have you noticed that there have been more than a hundred snow werewolves who have left the tribe since just now. When will they have so many more people?" Karl reached out and pulled Halen's clothes corner. "..." Halen returned to her senses, turned her gaze to stare at the hurried prairie people on the road, and swallowed after a moment of silence, "Did they gather all the tribes in the west of the prairie?"   

Xiao Yun from the nursery shed When I came out, I saw two elf warriors standing helplessly by the side of the road. They raised their hands and rubbed their faces vigorously. They pushed the facial muscles that had been stiff from exhaustion to life, and put on an enthusiastic smile in one second: "Helen! Karl! !"  

"Ayun!"  

"Are you here so early this year?" Xiao Yun smiled and hugged Helen, "It's not easy to hurry in this weather. Don't stand here anymore, come, go to the activity room to rest Take a break and eat something."

"That's right, I've missed your tribe's braised pork for a long time." Helen stretched out his hand and embraced Xiao Yun's shoulder, his attitude was not at all.

"Ahaha, now the most popular in our tribe's cafeteria is more than braised pork. Do you know the hot and sour noodles? Add a bit of meat foam and oily dregs whistle, which is very exciting!"

"I don't know, I'm just waiting to eat!"

The two of them were laughing and jogging shoulders and shoulders, and the corners of Karl's mouth, who looked hanging from behind, twitched... Halen, this bastard really has the face to say that I have changed, and you are the one who has become the most, okay!

A large shallow-bottomed bowl, hot soup with red oil, green green vegetables, white bean sprouts, fried soybeans sprinkled with a few seeds, a small handful of chopped green onions grown in a greenhouse, a spoonful of minced meat and a spoonful of oily residue The whistle is accompanied by the dark brown and reddish sweet potato vermicelli in the red oil soup. The smell comes up at one end, and it is difficult for anyone to control the saliva secretion.

Picking up the chopsticks and roll up the sweet potato vermicelli with the chopstick head and send it to your mouth. The smooth and chewy vermicelli with the fragrant and sour soup taste explodes in the mouth. Helen's eyes brightened when he wanted to talk a few words back, he immediately buried his head and chewed, completely ignoring words...  

There was also a bowl of noodles in front of Xiao Yun, but he didn't dare to eat heavy oil and spicy when he stayed up all night, so he ate clear soup potato fans, see both The elf warrior who was not used to chopsticks almost buried his head in the bowl. Xiao Yun laughed, "Is it delicious, how does it taste?"

   "Hmm! Ha, it's a bit spicy, delicious!" Halen looked up in her busy schedule.  

"Halen, do you still have a mission to come and see me this time? If the former is the case for a few more days, we will rarely see one side." Xiao Yun said again.

Halen looked up painfully: "Ha, there is a task, ha, the general asked us to confirm the number of sauces and porcelain prepared by your tribe. It's really a bit spicy."   

"Well, don't worry about this. I made an appointment last year. We have prepared the measurement, and we have brewed a hundred more tanks." Xiao Yun smiled.  

"Uh, Ayun, the general meant to ask if you have any new products. By the way, this food is good, can you sell them?"   

New products? After a while, Xiao Yun understood what was going on. The amount of transactions last year would certainly not be consumed by an elf tribe, so they specified that they bought back the sauce last year and started reselling—

Our snow werewolves are so honest and honest with you. We were very embarrassed if we didn't make it clear, we laughed immediately, pretending that we couldn't understand what the Elf General meaning, and nodded honestly: "It's okay, this one you have eaten is called sweet potato vermicelli, and the white one in my bowl is potato vermicelli. These two kinds of vermicelli are made using the traditional flour making process of our Xuelang tribe. The finished state is dry vermicelli. It can be stored for two to three years without being damp in a sealed storage. When you eat, you can take it out and cook it in water before adding ingredients. One catty of sweet potato flour can cook three to four bowls of this amount. If you elves eat it, I think one catty a day is enough for one person, and there may be more leftovers."

Halen and Karl raised their heads when they heard Xiao Yun's introduction. Helen couldn't help but gasp: "It can be stored for such a long time? How long does it take to cook?"   

"If you boil, it will take a few minutes. It's cooked." Xiao Yun said with a smile.  

This time Karl and Halen gasped together... Long storage time and convenient eating. It is the most appropriate dry food for warriors like them!

The forest elves are good at hunting, but if they perform long-period patrols, reconnaissance, and even cross-border missions, they are unlikely to hunt down their prey every day. If you want to carry rations, the storage period of rations is mostly only a few months. Yes, it's really unpalatable...  

If you change to this kind of vermicelli, the shelf life is no longer a problem. Even if you need to bring a copper pot, sauces and spices, it is far more convenient and convenient than carrying military rations. After all, space props are very precious, Forest Elves don't have is so much. The most important thing is that this vermicelli is really delicious!  

"Ayun, how do you sell this vermicelli?" Helen almost stretched out her little hand in her eyes.  

"Six copper coins per catty." Xiao Yun smiled beautifully. It's still the old rule. Since the Snow Wolf tribe is weak, don't always think about eating fat in one bite. The greedy end is that you can't get anything. Xiao Yun only needs to ensure that he can have two or three times the profit...The price of sweet potatoes in the whole mainland They are so cheap that they can't be sold by catty. The price of St. Bridge's is that a two-gram copper coin can buy ten catties of sweet potatoes. If five catties of sweet potatoes produce one catty of flour, this selling price is also a sea profit after removing the labor cost~  

Six copper coin can save a day's consumption of staple food for a soldier on duty. Helen and Carl both have an unreal sense of happiness... plus the prices of sauces (salt, vinegar) and spices (peppers and peppers). The cost of food rations is also low. It's scary! "Hiccup!" Helen was overly nervous and unconsciously hiccuped. He didn't care about his gaffe, eagerly, "Then how much can this vermicelli be sold to us?"   

"Um...we will probably be able to get it in a month Four hundred thousand catties, two kinds of fans together." Xiao Yun was a little embarrassed, "We hope it can be settled with gold coins... Isn't this demanding too much?"

"No no no!" Halen breathed heavily, "Then Ayun, let me taste your potatoe vermicelli."   

"Of course." Xiao Yun pushed his bowl over...

Under the delicious, easy-to-carry and easy-storable vermicelli strategy, the two elven warriors completely ignored the hints of General Lexter when they came. After eating and drinking for two days in the Huoyan Tribe, they each carried dozens of kilograms to make samples. The vermicelli went back. Before leaving, I also repeatedly stated that the amount of these two kinds of vermicelli and their forest elves is definitely not small, and asked Ayun to meet their needs first before selling to humans...  

So, in business, we must pay attention to long-term fishing. , The trading foundation cultivated last year allowed Xiao Yun to talk about the big business of 4800 gold coins just in the beginning of spring. This is the benefit of repeat customers~  

People who really like to eat can learn to cook quickly. Besides, the difficulty of cooking a sweet potato flour is no better than instant noodles. How much, Halen and Karl returned to Ananas, and that night the Elf General ate hot and sour sweet potato powder and clear potato powder.

Before a certain evil cub dumped sauces in the city of Ananas, and induced the forest elves and Prince Carlisle to buy a lot of spices, the taste of the forest elves was quite mild. Generally speaking, their dinner was grilled in the oven. The bread comes out with all kinds of fruits, vegetables, and whole pieces of stewed or fried meat. The heavy oil and heavy salt are far away from them; but Xiaoyun taught skewers skills, sauces for flavor enhancement, and spicy sauerkraut to relieve the appetite After that, the city of Ananas was a little bit more smoky. For details, please refer to the mental journey of foreigners indulging in China's "unhealthy dining" after coming to China. In short...As a more traditional forest elf, General Kleist is now accustomed to the way of eating bread with sauerkraut and grilled meat (or fried meat). This is also the beautiful and incomparable Kleist's winter chin. The main reason for the roundness...  

Clear soup potato powder has nothing to say. The boiled bone soup from the Snow Wolf tribe is not to mention the smooth, soft and refreshing potato powder. The bread is delicious when it is soaked in it; the taste is heavy. General Klester had difficulty accepting the hot and sour sweet potato noodles, but he didn't want to leave it, so he just ate all the noodles.  

Then General Kleist was not in a hurry to set off to the port to perform the duty on duty. He packed up and went to the Council of the Elders. He took Helen, and Helen was carrying a backpack with vermicelli.

Elder Gwendolyn is older than Kleist, but he is a great magician. He is very receptive to the hot and sour sweet potato powder that is stimulating by the thieves. People eat it without wrinkling their brows. After eating, he wipes his mouth. Halen called for a question. After hearing the price that was very heartwarming, Gwendolyn raised his eyebrows: "Halen, the snow werewolf family has not revealed whether they are willing to increase the trading volume of sauces and porcelain?"

Halen looked dumbfounded: "..." General Klester remembered this, her face was still, her eyes started to wander.  

"Uh...Ayun seems to have said that they have brewed more than a hundred tanks..." After holding back for a long time, Halen finally remembered a sentence that Xiao Yun mentioned accidentally.  

How sophisticated is Elder Gwendolyn! She can hear the intentions of the Huoyan Tribe...the increase in trade volume is no problem, but let them take the initiative to talk, and those who have the right to talk.

Gwendolyn did not blame the warrior Halen, and changed the question: "Do you have any new discoveries when you go to the Huoyan Tribe this time?"   

"Their buildings have roughly doubled and there are a lot more people. According to Ayun said that several tribes in the southwestern part of the grassland have moved to live with them... When we arrived, they were doing their best to expand the area of cultivation..." Halen racked his brains to recall what Ayun had said to him.

Hmm... Ayun said that they hope to open up farmland on both sides of the river and plant them full of grain, so that they can feed all the tribesmen, and there will be no fighting for lack of supplies."   

General Kleist looked surprised, Elder Gwendolyn's eyes became a bit sharp.

Halen didn't know whether the big man in the seat was satisfied or dissatisfied with his answer, hurriedly: "Ayun said that they had to relocate from the middle of the grassland to the southwestern border because the pastures triggered disputes...every tribe actually It's not easy. He doesn't want to see the two sides who are short of supplies are trying to make petty gains... Uh... Ayun said...

I'm sorry, Ms. Gwendolyn, Karl and I were only concerned about the vermicelli transaction at the time. didn't care about the other..."

Gwendolyn sighed in her heart. It is not a mistake that the soldiers care about the portable rations. There are many inconveniences in relying on the soldiers to communicate. Doesn't even her own disciple sometimes misunderstand her thoughts?

In response to the transaction of vermicelli and sent General Kleist away, Elder Gwendolyn summoned the maid to prepare refreshments for her, walked to the courtyard and took a few breaths with her hands relaxed, and made up her mind to go to the cursed land herself.  

It's just that... Whether her visit is for peaceful trade or for other reasons, it depends on the situation.

After this prairie on the northern continent became Melville's burial ground, the Forest Elf Queen, the snow mountain Elven King, the Orc King, the Dwarf King, and even... the Dark Elf Mistress all agreed to the prairie non-occupation agreement. The cursed land is regarded as a land not expropriated. For a position like Elder Gwendolyn, it is natural that the reason is very clear... It is not a tribute to the fallen demigod, but a reluctance to see the Lich King reappear in the world-the various forces in the Bloomfield mainland It's already complicated enough, no one wants to add another top powerhouse who can influence the mainland's structure.

Melville J. Bantroft was desperate for the short-sightedness and shallowness of his family. He was so desperate that he chose to close the phylactery and fall into the dark, so let him stay in the dark forever...the dead enemy is A respectable enemy, if Melville is alive, the evaluation of him by all races will not be as full of respect as it is now.  

The cursed land is always calm and waveless in the interests of all races, and the grassland tribes are always scattered and sandy, and it is more in the interests of all races. Elder Gwendolyn was sitting in the flowery courtyard, elegantly tasting the finest black tea from the continent of Braderick, her eyes were slightly narrowed, and a gentle and sweet voice came from her mouth: "...The intention of the last Tiger King The rule of the grassland was jointly suppressed by multiple actions, and the Tigers had to change their strategy and turn to the Far East. Although the Beast Emperor was dissatisfied, he could only let the Imperial Marshal secretly and the Tigers fly to the camp Googou... Anyway, the battlefield moved to the other side of the York Mountains. The mainland is advantageous. But the Elf King... Snow Elves frequently appear in the Cursed Lands. What is he thinking? Is he still interested in intervening in the orcs' housework?"   

"He is too arrogant."   

Exquisite and white The porcelain cup was gently placed in the tray with a soft hand, without making any sound.

Elder Gwendolyn relaxed and leaned on the back of the chair, his chin rested on the back of his hand, and his eyes looked towards the void.

"The snow werewolf tribe is smarter than I thought. Choosing to'create' will undoubtedly please the Elf King greatly." The gentle and pleasant voice spit out softly, but it seemed to... ...Did they really choose to'create', or did they learn from the tiger clan's lesson?"

Gwendolyn's beautiful eyes, like emeralds, seemed to be murderous in an instant.  

"Have they retrieved the inheritance, but still pretending to be stupid?"   

A few days later.  

The spring broadcast has not yet ended. In this busy period of intensive and high-intensity manual labor, the assignment to the patrol team is just as worthy of a carnival as a holiday for the soldiers of the Snow Wolf tribe.  

A few fighters were playing with joy, tumbling and playing on a grass that was as high as one person, swooping and biting, laughing and joking. Yu and Hongye checked the surrounding beasts' nests for signs of warcraft activities. When they got out of the cave, everyone was not upright. The mischievous guy Mumu even held a piece of rotten wood that he picked up from nowhere. , Sliding down the densely-vegetated low mountain like skiing, yelling all the way, hitting two fighters who happened to be fighting in front of her, and the three of them rolled into a ball, shouting endlessly.

"Hey, stop making trouble, it's time to change to another place!" Hongye couldn't laugh or cry, turned to look at Yu, reproachfully, "Maomao, you should also take care of them. It's this virtue when you leave the tribe. What should I do when I meet a monster?"

Yu smiled and waved to the soldiers who had jumped back into the team: "Let's go."   

"You are too indulgent of them." Hongye shook his head, and when Mu Mu approached her, he immediately reached out and caught Mu Mu's neck, "Mu Mu Why don't you behave Mu Mu? Tell me honestly, do you usually get angry?"    "No, I'm obedient when I work!" Mu Mu hurriedly begged for mercy.  

"Ghost believe you, I will persuade Ayun to call you out as a troublemaker next time the cement factory staff is changed."

"Eh-then I'm going to the cafeteria!"   

"You must be living in dreamland!"   

The soldiers were too happy, pointing at Mumu for a while and mocking, the leader Yu looked back, shook his head, and turned his face to smile.

Xiao Yun asked Yu to lead the soldiers out of balance considerations at first, but he did not expect to arrange Yu in the most suitable position by mistake. Back then, the Beast Emperor borrowed his troops and the elite soldiers of the Snow Wolf tribe in the middle of the grassland borrowed them. After most of the walk, no one could return, resulting in the loss of the strength of the Snow Wolf tribe; while the tribes living in the southwestern border were fortunately not harassed, and the elite fighters were saved, such as Xiaohua from the Li tribe and her partner. The two of them have the level of fighting power of the original owner's mother. They can tear snow beasts by hand without turning into a wolf, and they can beat five or six ordinary soldiers.  

Caogen tribe had not been borrowed too. Among the eleven warriors of the Caogen tribe, Yu is the strongest...So when Caogen patriarch ventured out to work, she sent Yu out without hesitation.

Yu, taciturn, not very quick-witted, and lacking in decisiveness, although he knows well in his heart, is not only the strongest in the Caogen tribe, he is also the strongest of the six tribes combined...but he did not have the opportunity to show his fighting power. So Xiao Yun didn't even know that the honest man he shouted "Maomao" all day long was actually a super warrior.  

For Yu, he doesn't care whether he is valued or not. He likes the peaceful life now.  

When the group of people happily moved to the next patrolling place relaxedly, in a low mountain bush not far away from them, a splendid magical brilliance that shouldn't have appeared on the grassland suddenly flashed strangely.

At the beginning, there was only a small point, at most the grains of rice were big, and between breathing, the rice-like brilliance expanded hundreds of times, and the momentary effort expanded thousands of times, tens of thousands of times, and it almost shrouded the entire dwarf mountain. In an instant, this slowly rotating magic array suddenly burst into gorgeous, colorful and bright light projecting upwards, projecting a multicolored pattern opposite to the array at an altitude of tens of meters.

It is impossible for the soldiers to see such a big movement, Yu rushed to the forefront without hesitation, and held the two-meter-long spear in front of him.

"This is..." A Yan among the warriors uttered in surprise, but before he could finish his words, a dazzling glare burst out from the magical array beam that enveloped the entire low mountain. It disintegrated and collapsed like being crushed by an invisible big foot, and the earth seemed to be unable to withstand the huge pressure, and it shook loudly.

Yu raised his left hand and made a move backwards, signaling everyone to back away, his eyes fixed on the disintegrating low mountain in front of him. The snow werewolves are a forbidden race, he is not afraid of magic attacks, but...this strange magic For some unknown reason, Jin Guangzhu vaguely made him feel tight!  

Hongye pulled the dumbfounded A Yan back a few steps, and just about to protect A Yan behind him, he saw it—a huge figure appeared on the low mountain that was only half disintegrated!  

The mountains on the grassland are not high, the average elevation is below 100 meters, and the area is not too large, but it is still a mountain after all... and the figure that appears on the top of the low mountain is not much smaller than the low mountain!  

In the horrified sight of the warriors, the short mountain was razed to the ground by an unknown force, and the monster that had only a vague figure also showed a rough outline.  

"This, this is--" Haeye's canthus was about to split. The moment the magical radiance dissipated, the amazing monster finally revealed its true body—the upper body was a human body, and the lower body was a vigorous steed. Both the human body and the horse were dressed in mixed black hideous armor. The hand was as strong as a giant tree, and it was holding a body. For the giant axe that is at least thirty meters away! "Centaur evil spirit, nightmare knight?!" Hongye exclaimed, "Is this, isn't this the legendary great devil? How could it appear here?!"   

A real nightmare knight-sized head appeared in front of him. Facing the snow werewolf warriors, under the helmet visor, a pair of eyes suddenly opened, and the eyes like the burning crimson soul fire just cast their sights, and the purely counted Ayan softened his legs and fell to the ground.

"Hongye, take Ayan away!" Yu had only time to shout one time, so he had to rush forward-the nightmare knight who symbolized horror and despair had raised his giant axe and threw it!  

Hongye instantly became wolf foem, opened her mouth to bite Ayan's collar and turned and ran wildly. Warriors such as Mu Mu turned into a wolf form without taking off their clothes, spreading their legs!  

Yu clenched the spear with both hands, and turned his front face toward the giant axe that was ten times larger than his body. The arms of the force suddenly became thicker, and the spear that was thrown out could only see the afterimage!  

"Qang——!!!"  

"Ahhhh!!! Ayan, who is carried away by Hongye, suddenly screams and covers his ears with both hands. Two threads of red blood slip between his fingers and palms. Ayan's eardrum is broken by the huge sound waves 

Yu, with strength alone, he abruptly resisted the giant axe!
