Food conquers the world
Chapter 30 The Valley of Death
After a few people quarreled for a while, Zou Kai sent Maier to clean up the pot, and then found a clean place near the magic flame flower to sit down, waved to the other swordsmen, and said, "Come here, I'll show you the wound."
Zou Kai also figured it out now, since everyone said to go through the Valley of Death, let's go through it.If you get it right, you will be prosperous and rich, but if you don’t get it, it’s your fate. Even Dele, a shopkeeper with half a foot in the loess, is still working hard. Why does he shrink back?
Judging from the tone of Prince Prius and his guards, they should have knowledge of this valley and what is in it.
With the light of the magic flame flower, Zou Kai healed several swordsmen one by one.Except for Ster, who had a broken arm, the other three had some wounds, but they were not deep. Zou Kai healed them with the lowest level of healing techniques he knew.
After the treatment, the shopkeeper also packed up his truck, moved all the goods to one side, and spread the tarpaulin on the truck on the other side.After finishing this, he smiled at the prince: "Prince, sleep in the car, it's more comfortable."
Prince Prius shook his head, he pondered for a while, walked to Zou Kai, drew something on the ground with his dagger under the light of the magic flame flower, after a while he put away the dagger, and said to the others: "Come here. "
A few people came over to take a look, and there was a simple map drawn on the ground.The map is narrow on both sides and slightly wider in the middle, like a few balls on a stick.
Pointing to the map, Prince Prius raised his head and said to several others: "I found a notebook of a great magician in the Royal Library of Plains, and he recorded in detail how he crossed the Valley of Death, and what happened along the way. The magical creatures and terrain. I was very interested in these strange people and strange things at the time, read it many times, and drew a map, which is this one."
"It's so simple?" Zou Kai couldn't believe it. He said that the terrain of the Valley of Death should be very complicated?
"It's very simple." Price explained, "But we must not take it lightly. There are all kinds of magical creatures living here. They can't communicate, and many of them even eat people. And dragons do live here."
Price moved his hand to the largest circle he had drawn, and there was a small circle inside the big circle. He said: "The dragon lives here. This is the middle of the Valley of Death. It is relatively open. A lake, and dragons live on the cliffs beside the lake."
Hearing that Zou Kai had doubts here, he asked, "What does the dragon look like? Has anyone seen it or recorded it?"
He had heard people mention giant dragons more than once, but he had no idea what a giant dragon was. The dragons he had heard were Chinese dragons and western dragons, but the abilities of the two types of dragons were also different.Although the dragons in this world sound more like western dragons, Zou Kai decided to ask first. After all, this is not his previous world. Maybe the dragon people talk about is actually a fat earthworm.Now that you ask clearly, you can avoid being unprepared if you really encounter it.
"Someone has seen it, and it has been recorded in writing." The speaker is the swordsman Saikende. "In the "Miracle" in the Royal Library, it is said that when the only god Wilde created the world, he first created a vast land, and then He walked on the land, and every time he passed, there were mountains, rivers, flowers, plants and trees. Later, Wilder felt that he was walking too slowly, so he created a mount for himself, which was a dragon."
"Wait, I have something to say." Zou Kai felt strange when he heard this, "Then what, shouldn't God be omnipotent? Can you still walk and get tired?"
Suddenly interrupted, Saikende thought about Zou Kai's question seriously, probably because no one had thought about it before, and couldn't think of an answer, so he replied: "It is recorded in "Miracle", Thousands of years have passed, and no one knows whether the records in "Miracle" are true or not."
Hearing this, Zou Kai nodded, expressing that he was clear. At the same time, he was also thinking: If the records in "Miracle" are true, then it seems that the gods here are not omnipotent, just like Nuwa who created human beings but cannot. Just like mending the sky with magic power, the gods here are also flawed.
"It is also mentioned in "Miracle" that after Wilder created the entire continent, he finally created the Valley of Death. Here," Sekender stomped the ground with his foot, "The Valley of Death was given to the dragon by the gods. A gift. A long time ago, this place was not called the Valley of Death, but the Valley of Gods. Until more and more people came in, they never went out. People regarded this place as a place of death, and the Valley of Gods gradually became a place of death. The name of the valley."
Hearing this, the shopkeeper said, "I've also heard that many people enter the Valley of Death for the treasure of the dragon."
"Treasure?" Zou Kai became interested when he heard this, "What treasure? Gold or jewelry?"
"No." Hearing Maier's words, Prince Prius, who had been silent all this time, looked deep into the valley, his blue eyes reflecting patches of magic flame flowers and the darkness in the depths, "The treasure of the dragon is the treasure of death. The magical creatures in the valley, here are the most precious potion raw materials, raw materials that even the forest of the world does not have."
After finishing speaking, Prince Prius suddenly coughed, lowered his head and pointed at the map, and said, "The dragon is not difficult to deal with. The great magician didn't have to confront the dragon head-on. The dragon lives on the cliff to the north of the lake. We Be careful not to disturb it, just go around it. Our greatest danger is actually the magical creatures everywhere, and the rough terrain in the valley of death."
The long-lost topic was brought back, and Price pointed to the map and talked about the distribution of the magical creatures he remembered one by one. Those magical creatures that he had never seen or heard of could make Zou Kai intuit that the world was really mysterious.
After a general explanation of the situation in the Valley of Death, several people were ready to go to sleep, and the seat on the truck was reserved for Ster, who had an arm injury, while the others leaned against the mountain wall for the night.Because the night in the valley is not safe, a vigil is needed. There are only a few swordsmen here who know what to pay attention to when watching a night. So in the end, Prius arranged for one swordsman to guard the first half of the night, and one swordsman to guard the second half of the night. Tomorrow night, another person will be replaced, and the three will take turns to exchange.
Just as Prince Prius was explaining the issue of the night watch, Maier suddenly called Zou Kai aside.Maier didn't say a few words tonight, the rare silence of this lively young man seemed to be preoccupied.
After he shouted Zou Kai aside, he frowned tightly, his expression was very tangled, and after a while he asked, "Why did you lie to the prince?"
Zou Kai didn't even think about it, and replied directly: "I think my surname is too unpleasant."
"But that's your last name too..." Maier struggled with the question.
Zou Kai looked at him and smiled: "Isn't the surname Huo Sen good?"
When he said this, Maier thought for a moment, and then suddenly felt relieved. Mrs. Huo Sen is such a nice person, isn't it good to be surnamed Huo Sen?
But he figured out one problem, and another problem he couldn't figure out. He looked at Zou Kai and asked, "Are you a magician?"
Regarding this question, Zou Kai thought for a while, because with Su Ge around, he didn't want to make a fool of himself in front of others. When practicing magic, he always practiced it secretly. Maier didn't realize that he knew magic and would be normal.He replied, "Is that so?"
"What does it mean?" Maier asked, "You didn't know it before?"
There is nothing to hide in front of Maier, Zou Kai replied: "Mrs. Huo Sen taught me."
"Mrs. Huo Sen?" Meier's eyes widened suddenly, with a look of disbelief on his face, "Mrs. Huo Sen can do magic?"
"Hasn't Mrs. Huo Sen treated people's wounds?" Zou Kaiqi said, what's so surprising about this?
"I only know that Mrs. Huo Sen knows healing spells, but I never knew she could do other magic spells," Maier murmured.
"Didn't she come out of the forest of the world? You must know some spells to protect yourself." Zou Kai remembered what Mrs. Huo Sen had told him about her life experience, "Besides, how could Mrs. Huo Sen, a lady from a magic family, be a little bit different?" Can't do any spells?"
"What are you talking about?" Maier's expression was so surprised that he was a little dazed, "What lady from the magic family? Are you really talking about Mrs. Huo Sen?"
Zou Kai's heart suddenly "thumped", and he immediately had a bad feeling. He spoke slowly and asked Maier: "Isn't Mrs. Huo Sen the most talented lady in the magic family, and then enter The forest of the world was injured in an adventure and was rescued by the people of Woliji Village, and then chose to stay in the village?"
"No!" Maier shook his head fiercely, "Mrs. Huo Sen is the daughter of the former village chief! She is not the most talented lady in the magic family at all!"
Mrs. Hosen lied to him?
At that moment, Zou Kai had mixed feelings in his heart, and he couldn't tell what it was like.Anger, sadness, anxiety, distress, etc. all surged out.He took a deep breath and suppressed those emotions, only to find that only deep powerlessness remained in the end.
It suddenly occurred to him that Mrs. Huo Sen was dead, and even if he wanted to prove anything now, it would be impossible.
"Tell me about Mrs. Huo Sen's past." After a long silence, Zou Kai spoke.
Maier noticed that Zou Kai's mood had changed a lot, and looked at him with some concern, but didn't say much, and only slowly told what he had heard about Mrs. Huo Sen's life.
Mrs. Huo Sen's life was very ordinary. The daughter of the village chief in the frontier village married a young man in the village she loved so much when she was young. The young man died while hunting in the forest of the world. I heard that he saw it. A beautiful flower wants to take it home to show Mrs. Hawson, but instead encounters a magical creature.Mrs. Hawson went to the town church all day long after the boy died, and sat alone in a corner weeping.
The priest in the church saw that she came often and heard what happened to her, so he began to enlighten her.Then one day, Mrs. Huo Sen suddenly figured it out, and instead of going to church every day, she stayed at home and did something for her neighbors and folks.
Mrs. Huo Sen also learned some healing magic from the priest during her stay in the church, and she also helped many people heal their wounds when she came back.Moreover, Mrs. Huo Sen came back from the church and became more and more kind, and more and more people liked her, but Mrs. Huo Sen never married again.
After listening to Mrs. Huo Sen's story, Zou Kai quickly fell asleep, but he was still restless during sleep. He couldn't figure out why Mrs. Huo Sen wanted to lie to him, let alone the magic that Mrs. Huo Sen used freely Where did it come from.
Zou Kai also figured it out now, since everyone said to go through the Valley of Death, let's go through it.If you get it right, you will be prosperous and rich, but if you don’t get it, it’s your fate. Even Dele, a shopkeeper with half a foot in the loess, is still working hard. Why does he shrink back?
