"Xiaohua, why are you here if you don't look after the sheep?" A girl of fourteen or fifteen years old ran over and kicked the drooling dog.
"Hey, what does it smell like? It smells so good." The girl sniffed, looked at Chris, and swallowed unconsciously.
She was wearing a brown-gray cotton and linen robe with very wide sleeves, black boots, and her hair was tied into fish-scale braids.
Seeing the girl's eager eyes, Chris handed over a skewer of meat and said, "Would you like to try it?"
The girl nodded subconsciously, then shook her head quickly: "My grandma said you can't just eat the food given by others."
"Oh." Chris agreed and started eating on his own.
In the end, the girl still couldn't resist the temptation of the delicious food, and cautiously came over and said, "But I don't need to let grandma know."
Chris joked: "It's too late. After passing this village, there won't be this store."
The girl immediately showed a disappointed expression and lowered her head.
Suddenly, she raised her head: "I can exchange it with you for the most precious thing in my body."
Chris was simply shocked, no way, just for a bunch of meat?
Just when he was about to refuse, he saw the girl groping in her arms and took out an oval stone the size of an egg.
The stone is milky white and looks very smooth on the surface. There seems to be white liquid flowing inside, and it smells faintly of milk.
After Chris took it, it was cold and cold in his hand, very delicate to the touch, and felt great.
He asked curiously: "What is this?"
The girl shook her head and said, "I don't know either. I picked this up when I was herding sheep. It's very magical. If you put it under candlelight for a while, it can still glow."
"Is it the Night Pearl?" Chris became interested.
Although there is no such thing as a luminous pearl in the Magic Continent, as long as it is not a magic material, it is worthless at all.
But it is also a good choice to keep it for yourself to collect and play with.
It's a pity that there is only one, it would be great if there were two to play with.
"Okay, then I'll accept it. I'll give you all the roasted meat. If it's not enough, I'll continue roasting it. You can eat as much as you want, as long as it's enough."
Chris put away the Night Pearl with satisfaction and handed the remaining uneaten meat skewers to the other party.
The girl bit off a piece of meat, and her eyes suddenly brightened: "It's delicious."

She ate two skewers in one go, and then threw another skewer to the little spotted dog that was bleeding all over the floor.
"Woof woof woof!" The little flower dog swallowed it whole, wagging its tail, very happy.
Chris took out the meat from the ring again, cut it up, threaded it and continued roasting it.
"Lilith, how many people are there in your family?" Chris asked casually.
"There's dad, mom, brother... Hey, how do you know my name?" Lilith gave a strange look.
Damn it, I haven't asked the other party's name yet, so I forgot about it.
The reason why he knew it was because the system directly displayed it.
Chris rolled his eyes and explained: "You see, I am a magician. I know a kind of magic. When I see someone, I can immediately know their name."
"Wow, it's so magical." Lilith admired it.
Fortunately, this girl is innocent and believes her after just a few words.
If it had been anyone else, they would have discovered something fishy right away, and there is absolutely no way such magic could exist.
"My name is Chris, and I am a noble from the Eagle Kingdom." Chris introduced himself.
Lilith asked in surprise: "Is the Eagle Kingdom so far away from here?"
Chris said: "It's not far, only eight or nine hundred kilometers. If you ride a horse, you can get there in about two or three days."
"What are you doing here on our grassland?"
Chris answered truthfully: "I'm going to find a herb in the snowy mountains in the far north, and I happened to be passing by."
"Ah, are you going to the Snowy Mountains?" Lilith's eyes widened, "Don't go there, it's very dangerous."
"Oh? Tell me about the dangers there."
Since this girl knew the information about the Snowy Mountains, Chris decided to get some words out of her mouth.
Lilith said with lingering fear: "I heard from my grandfather that when he was young, he led a mercenary group in the country and went to the Snowy Mountains."
"There is snow everywhere. If you are not careful, you will trigger an avalanche and be buried under the heavy snow, never to see the light of day."
"Not only that, there are also many burly people living in the snowy mountains. They are three or four meters tall. They are very powerful and hate outsiders intruding into their territory. According to my grandfather, there are more than three hundred people in that mercenary group.
In the end, less than twenty people came back alive."
Chris lowered his head and pondered. Low-level dangers like avalanches could be ruled out. He could fly, so there was no need to be afraid.
Could it be that those so-called tall people, like the Minotaur and Rhinoceros tribes, are descendants of ninth-level monsters?
It seems that this is also possible. If they can speak the common language of the mainland and can communicate, it will be easier.
Chris was in a great mood when he heard the news.
To outsiders, the descendants of ninth-level monsters were a danger, but to him it was an opportunity.
Haven't you seen that the two groups of rhino and tauren are still working diligently in Dawn City?
Chris can negotiate with them and ask for information about Ningbing Snow Lotus, which is much better than searching aimlessly on his own.
"Don't worry, I'm also very good at fighting." As he spoke, he grilled more than a dozen skewers of barbecue and handed them to Lilith.
Reputation from Lilith 10, Reputation from Xiaohua 5
Huh?
Chris looked at the little flower dog in surprise. When could animals also provide him with reputation points?
Lilith's mouth was full of oil and her belly was round.
The little flower and its owner were full and rolled happily.
Chris went to the river and washed his hands and mouth.
The river water was very clear and sweet. He subconsciously took a few sips and it tasted pretty good.
"I'm leaving. I'm very happy to see you. Thank you for the night pearl." Chris called out his roots and prepared to leave.
Lilith smiled sweetly: "Thank you for the kebabs, too."
She drove over a dozen sheep with a pink whip, and Xiaohua barked "woof" beside her, acting as a shepherd dog.
"Why are you following me?" Chris asked when he saw Lilith driving the sheep behind him.
Lilith explained: "My home is right in front."
Chris didn't pay attention and asked Lagen to speed up.
······
Ten minutes later, Chris saw seven yurts and thought that this place was Lilith's home.
Suddenly, he noticed a palm exposed under the curtain of one of the yurts.
