In the following period starting from February 23, 796 in the New Calendar, the lives surrounding the players of the Qingling Adventure Group finally began to calm down as the situation stabilized.
Under the guidance of the discussed phalanx, they launched each other's plans, and gradually promoted the construction and garrison work of the entire station. The sun and moon on the grassland also continued to change from Duan Qing and others as time passed day by day.
Passing above their heads, accompanied by the endless greenery that seemed to have never changed and the strong wind that had been surrounding them, they used various means and methods to overcome numerous difficulties and then...
Finally, the construction of the infrastructure was successfully completed, and things gradually settled down around the territory of the Nasu clan.
Of course, not everything in this process was extremely smooth. In the first step of negotiation, they were the first to stumble.
"What? You want the Stone of Wind? It's impossible, there's not even one."
"Hey, hey, isn't it just some scraps from the tent? Give us two more pieces and it won't be too much..."
"Scrap? What do you think this kind of stone is? Is it something to eat? We have no shortage of horses, cattle, sheep, or even warriors here! But this kind of stone is not a trading item!"
"Get out of here! Otherwise I will kick you all out!"
As the commotion broke out, the silhouettes of hula la burst out towards the periphery of the Su clan. Soon, the figures belonging to Duan Qing and Xue Ling Huan Bing appeared in the long blue sky mixed with clouds, looking at each other.
Standing on the grassland, they all looked lonely and desolate. It was difficult to say anything to break the awkward silence: "It was a miscalculation. I didn't expect them to be so stingy."
"No, the tribes on the grassland should not be so stingy. There should be other reasons."
He shook his head against his chin, and the thinking gaze belonging to Xue Ling Huan Bing was gradually buried in his lowering his head: "Perhaps this so-called wind stone is really a very precious mineral material, so it is
They must take it so seriously."
"When it comes to quarrying things like stones, they are usually excavated from mines or rock fields." Duan Qing, who understood what the other party wanted to say at this time, turned around.
His eyes looked towards the distance of the grassland: "But let alone similar things, it is difficult for us to see even the tops and hills."
"We have to find a way to figure out the source of this stone, at least figure out the source of the supply." Shaking his head, Xueling Huanbing took the lead in walking towards the direction of the temporary camp: "It is different from food and water.
Transaction, our request just now may have violated some kind of taboo. If we don’t want to cause such accidents again, we have to first——”
"I thought who was causing such a big commotion here, but it turned out to be you two."
The loud voice then interrupted Xue Ling Huan Bing's words, and at the same time drew the attention of the two people who were just about to leave. The figure of Surtu with a scimitar slung across his body followed the two cavalry-looking guards.
Under the escort, he came to them on strong horses and asked, "Why are you back again? What trouble have you encountered again?"
"We wanted to trade with your people in the name of adventurers, but they were rejected by the other party." Sensing that this was a good opportunity, Duan Qing and Xueling Huanbing exchanged glances and hurriedly joined forces.
Back: "We didn't understand the reason for the rejection, so we almost had a fight with your tribe."
"Oh? That's really difficult to handle." Surtu, who seemed to be responsible for the security of the settlement and listened to Duan Qing's answer with his chin raised, then turned to look at the camp where they had just escaped from the riot: "
Old Aga is not someone who is not easy to talk to. He should be able to welcome ordinary guests... To make that person angry, are your demands too much?"
"After all, we are newcomers to this continent, and we don't know much about many things on this continent." Duan Qing said with a respectful smile: "If possible, please also ask Sir Surtu to give us some guidance.
A moment of doubt."
"Sir, we can't talk to each other. Just call me Surtu."
To Duan Qing's surprise, he showed an easy-going attitude. Surtu raised his hands and jumped off his horse: "Tell me, what do you want to know?"
"Uh... Is that thing called the Wind Stone rare in this continent?" Duan Qing calmed down his unexpected mood and asked cautiously: "Or is it something taboo?
"
"Oh, it turns out you want the Stone of Wind." After looking at the distance where the two adventurers were for a while, Surtu burst out laughing: "I see, that's it, you really want to
Can you live near this place?"
"Anyway, we have nowhere else to go, so of course we can only stay here." Showing the vague dust scene in the direction Surtu was looking at, Duan Qing responded kindly: "But we are here
We encountered some difficulties in the construction of the camp, so we wanted to inspect the territory of the Sioux tribe, and then we found that there seemed to be a kind of stone placed around your tents——"
"That stone is not something that can be obtained casually."
Without doubting Duan Qing's words, Surtu stared at the two people and then made a serious face: "Even in the Galba area that has not been fully exploited, the wind stone is a scarce resource. Our cattle, sheep and gold
Iron may still be easy to obtain, but the 'Corner Stone' is different... Hmm."
"Forget it, just wait here."
He turned around and whispered to the two cavalrymen behind him for a while, then he walked back to Duan Qing in the background of the two surprised-looking cavalrymen and said, "I will give my family's
I will take some stones out and give them to you, so you can make do with them first."
"Is this, is this appropriate?" After exchanging glances again, Xue Ling Huan Bing, who also came forward, asked hesitantly: "For such a precious thing, even if we pay more -"
"Are you referring to the kind of gold coins in your hands? That kind of thing is not easy to use here!" He put his hands on his hips and let out a burst of proud laughter, but Surtu's expression appeared in front of Duan Qing and Duan Qing again.
He became extremely serious: "Everyone who has just come here has experienced everything you have experienced. Everyone started with empty hands and nothing, so you can use these stones as if they are yours."
That’s all our Su clan supports you.”
"Sir, is this really appropriate?"
Amidst another burst of gratitude and friendly exchanges of greetings, the two cavalrymen quickly returned with a small cowhide bag. They followed Surtu's order and handed the bag to the man who bowed repeatedly.
The hands of the two adventurers, then looked at their retreating backs and asked uneasily: "What if they are not our friends, but spies sent by the enemy..."
"If they are really spies from the Nashi tribe, then the acting skills of their tribe are too good." He waved his hand to stop his subordinates from asking questions, and Surtu, who also watched Duan Qing leave, replied in a low voice: "They are
I brought it back with my own hands, and I am personally responsible for the investigation. If this doesn't make me believe it, doesn't it mean that I can't believe myself?"
"But sir, many people in the clan are saying-"
"It doesn't matter, let them talk." His eyes finally withdrew from the two people who were drifting away. Surtu turned and looked at the faces of his two subordinates: "I didn't name them 'Messengers of Destiny'.
The title was given by the patriarch."
"If there is something they really don't like, why don't they go to the clan leader and explain it themselves?"
With the support of only a few Wind Stones, the small camp belonging to Duan Qing and others finally had the capital to settle down. They relied on the incomplete magician disk and a few Wind Stones in the cowhide bag.
With the help of Shi Shi, he survived another sleepless night on the grassland, and at the same time repelled the attacks of wolves wandering nearby again and again - perhaps because of the proximity to the Sioux settlement, wandering in this area
The number and size of the wolves in the area are smaller than what Duan Qing encountered that first night, but I don't know if they are using the same rules as the Free Continent. The strength of these wild monsters that haunt the night is also stronger than normal.
The ones encountered during the day are more powerful.
"Another batch is coming! This time they are coming from the north! Number - one, two... four!"
"Don't be careless! They must also be demonized creatures. Their strength and agility have been increased by at least 30%!"
"311 tactics, divide and surround them! Leave the fighting work to Lingbing! The rest of the people will focus on dealing with the one that dropped the single - waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!"
"Be careful! They will release the Wind Blade Technique!"
Still different from the Sioux settlement not far away, this small and lonely camp located under the depression of the grassland finally welcomed the arrival of another sun with extremely lively fighting, and began to escape with the help of the sunshine.
The lone wolf shadow then fled to the far side of the grassland under the helpless eyes of Duan Qing and others, leaving behind only the scene of them sitting exhausted around the dilapidated tent after not having rested all night: "Ha, ha, ha, ha...
...These...bastards...I'm going to chop them all up sooner or later...and then...skewer them and grill them..."
"Should we build a wall or something like that? We can't continue to struggle with them like this every night." Gedman, who was also sitting in the corner of the camp, and then spoke up, replied with sweating profusely:
"Although I also want to eat grilled wolf meat on large skewers, I have to have my life before I can eat it."
"But there is nothing that can be used to build a wall around here. As far as the eye can see, it is all grassland." He gritted his teeth and propped up his body. Xue Ling Huanbing, who was breathing hard and calming down, looked around at the end of the green grass field: "
You can't rely on digging trenches, right? That won't stop them at all."
"I can make a magic earth wall, but the lasting effect is calculated in seconds." Duan Qing, with his hands and feet spread out on the grass, looking up at the sky, panting violently, seemed to be swallowed by his own words:
"Unless high-tech means such as magic arrays are used, otherwise——"
"give it to me."
A calm voice then appeared in the center of the camp, accompanied by Fulla's golden figure who didn't know when she appeared there: "For the sake of you letting me have a good night's rest, I will help you a little bit.
Already."
"F-Ms. Fula."
Looking at the scene where the golden light in the opponent's hand gradually arched up the surrounding open space, Duan Qing, who was lying on the ground, sighed involuntarily: "You are really a god. It is great to have you as our teammate.
What an honor."
"Space magic is not used to build a house for you. I just provide you with an adobe." Pointing to the green earth walls that were still falling around, Fu had already surrounded the city with a circle of several meters high.
La turned around with a nonchalant expression: "The rest is up to you to solve."
"Okay ma'am, no problem ma'am." He saluted feebly in the direction where the other party suddenly teleported and disappeared, and Duan Qing put down his hand with a smile on his lips: "But ma'am -"
"You have to leave a door for us before leaving!"
Another burst of noisy sounds of landslides followed the sky-high screams and continued to sound in the sky above the grassland. The phenomenon that caused the ground to shake even attracted the inspection of the Sioux cavalry unit, which was ignored.
The Qing Ling Adventure Group, which they pointed at, then started a new busy day again, carrying out the reinforcement and decoration work of this small camp. As a magician and alchemist in the team, Duan Qing was naturally involved in this process.
He also participated in a very special role, but through his own strong request, the tasks undertaken by this role naturally have nothing to do with physical work: "One third of the magic is distributed here, and then returns through the energy transmission circuit
When we get to this place...Okay, let’s place another piece here.”
"You can let it go as you say, what kind of hero is it to talk on paper? Don't always give instructions to us who are repairing the house, we are very busy!"
"What you are building is a house, but what I designed is a magic circle that is responsible for protecting the entire camp! If it weren't for the protection of this magic circle, even I would be able to blow down your tofu project in one breath!"
"Then who was the one who wanted to change it into an adobe house in the first place? It wasn't you who proposed it! After you finished talking, you just looked there. Could it be that you are treating us all as tools?"
"Okay, don't make any noise and keep working."
Becoming the only majestic figure in the team, Xue Ling Huan Bing, who was also reinforcing the earth wall, wiped his sweat and threatened the crowd loudly: "If we waste more time, none of us will be able to sleep tonight!"
"Really, the workers and subordinates in my dream are not obedient at all."
Looking at the figure of the woman with white hair tangled on her head, Duan Qing, who was squatting on the ground, dodged his eyes and said to himself: "If we were Rand people, it would only take half a day to do this kind of thing."
……oops!"
"Stop your daydreaming, being lazy is not good." He stretched out his hand to put away the magic array that the other party was playing with. Xueling Huanbing then reached out and pulled Duan Qing's body that was about to protest: "And you
, come and take a look.”
"Did you just put this thing up?"
She pointed at a crystal-clear stone embedded in the earthen wall and asked the other party in a low voice.
