Half a day later, the airship Titan landed from the sky and docked at the Heixiazi Ridge mentioned by Jin Nuo.
When leaving Fontaine County, the weather had gradually warmed up. After more than ten consecutive days of flying, Yue Jinghua and his party had already penetrated deep into the belly of the Dragon War Empire.
Spring has arrived, and the entire hilly slopes are covered with tender green wild vegetables and edible fungi.
Yue Jinghua and others got off the ship. Except for the injured sergeants, everyone got off the ship and assigned tasks to each of them.
Hong Ling led a group of women to collect edible fruits and vegetables near the Titan. Twenty sergeants were responsible for looking for water sources, and twenty army soldiers collected firewood.
The remaining twenty or thirty people, led by Jin Nuo and Yue Jinghua, formed two hunting teams. In one day and one night, they would see which hunting team could hunt the largest number of mysterious beasts.
"Brother Yue, this time we have to make a deal. If our Jin team wins first place, all food, clothing, accommodation and transportation on the Titan will be free of charge." Jin Nuo secretly calculated what Yue Jinghua's Titan would be like. Consumption is not cheap.
After all, Yue Jinghua is also the lord of Fontaine County. He was the one who misjudged the situation earlier. How could this guy own such a luxurious top-level airship if he wasn't rich and wealthy?
"Okay, but the ugly talk is ahead. What if we lose?" Yue Jinghua rolled her eyes, and she had already guessed what Jin Nuo was thinking.
Oh, how can I lose? I don’t want to think about it. I have been hunting in this area with the gang of dandies in the imperial capital since I was ten years old. Only I know the whereabouts of those black and blind men, Jin Nuo thought secretly in his heart.
"If you lose, the bill will be doubled," Jin Nuo boldly determined the conditions for winning and losing. "As the elder brother, I would like to remind you that there is a saying in Heixiazi Ridge, one pig, two bears and three tigers, you have to hunt , these three are the best.”
"Medium, but Brother Jinnuo, for the sake of fairness, we not only compare the number of hunts, but also the rarity of the mysterious beasts we hunted. As for the results, Chi Xi will be the judge." Yue Jinghua smiled lightly and wanted to learn from the iron cock. It depends on whether he has the ability to pluck his hair.
"That can't happen. Chi Xi is yours. How do I know if you will be in cahoots with her?" Jin Nuo said anxiously.
"These sergeants behind me are also your people, so how do I know if they are in harmony with you? One is going down and the other is going up. We don't care about the enemy or ourselves, we only care about the results," Yue Jinghua said with a smile.
Jin Nuo thought for a while and realized that he was sure of winning anyway. Although Yue Jinghua was a mercenary, he was a monk by the way. In terms of hunting skills, he was not necessarily better than him.
So he agreed wholeheartedly and asked Yue Jinghua to pick the people to go first. Yue Jinghua casually named a dozen people and led them to the depths of Heixiazi Ridge.
While walking, Yue Jinghua observed the nearby terrain.
"Sexworm, how are the distribution of mysterious beasts in this area?" Yue Jinghua didn't think Jin Nuo would lie to her, but to her, mysterious beasts like tigers, pigs, and bears were not very attractive.
"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. There are rock egg crabs and two-headed fire-breathing mandarin fish, and there are mushroom snakes in the shallows that can be soaked in wine. Alas, it’s a pity that the timing is not right. If you had been born a few hundred years earlier, you might have been able to catch one or two fire storks for fun.”
"Fire stork?" Yue Jinghua raised his eyebrows slightly. Every region has its own unique distribution of mysterious beasts, and Heixiazi Ridge is no exception. It has a vast territory, surrounded by high and undulating grassy slopes, and the terrain is gently undulating.
, very suitable for nobles to ride horses and hunt.
Although the pigs, bears, tigers and the like mentioned by Jin Nuo are all large mysterious beasts, this area has been hunted all year round. Even if there were such mysterious beasts, they have been hunted down long ago.
Rather than looking for a needle in a haystack, it's better to find another way.
The Fire Stork is a legendary divine bird, one of the four legendary sacred beasts on Canglong Continent, namely Sun Dragon, Moon Tiger, Star Bird, and Chen Wu.
Thousands of years ago, due to unknown reasons, the four holy beasts headed by the dragon clan and other holy beasts left one after another.
But there are still some mysterious beasts on the continent that have the blood of holy beasts flowing in their bodies, such as the Asian dragon, and this beautiful mysterious bird called the Fire Stork.
Legend has it that the Fire Stork is a descendant of the Star Sparrow, and its hair is as lush as the rising morning star. From its birth, the Fire Stork has made a living by absorbing the power of the stars in the sky and earth. When it breaks through the ninth level, it can attract the Big Dipper.
Seven stars, ignite the spark of fire, rebirth in Nirvana, and transform into a holy beast.
"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay, there is another version of this legend. Some people say that the Fire Stork is not afraid of the thunder, fire and wind of the plane, and can fly across the plane and act as a messenger," Pinjin Silkworm said with emotion. Its ancestors were crossing the plane.
, the hardships I have experienced are difficult to explain to others.
The terrifying plane restriction is unstoppable by human power. It is hard to imagine that a bird as big as a crane can use its delicate body to cross such a restriction between heaven and earth.
A divine bird that can fly across planes? You must know that the Golden Silkworm is very arrogant, and it is rare to hear it praise a certain mysterious beast, but the Fire Stork can attract its praise. Obviously, this bird is definitely extraordinary.
After hearing this, Yue Jinghua became interested in this black bird called the Fire Stork.
It's a pity that according to Pin Jincan's induction, there is almost no scent of the Fire Stork in the Heixiazi Ridge area.
After asking an accompanying imperial sergeant to ask, Yue Jinghua learned that about three hundred years ago, the fire stork was spotted by a noble lady who occasionally came here for summer hunting because of its plump feathers, and was made into a feather fan.
Since then, feather fans or ornamental specimens made of the Fire Stork have become popular. About a hundred years ago, the Fire Stork was completely extinct in the Dragon War Empire.
"It's really stupid," Yue Jinghua couldn't help but sigh, such a spiritual bird was extinct because of the ignorant hunting of the human race.
But right now, she doesn't need to travel through planes, so she doesn't need the Fire Stork.
After listening to Gold Silkworm's analysis of the distribution of mysterious beasts in this area, Yue Jinghua made a decisive decision and divided her men into two groups. One group would catch crabs and mandarin fish in the river tidal flats, and the other group would follow her.
Go catch the mushroom snake.
At the end of the day and night, Yue Jinghua's team did not capture any large mysterious beasts, but according to what Pin Jincan said, they did find a lot of rare delicacies on the mainland.
"Tonight, we will hunt again in the mountains. If we are lucky, we may be able to catch one or two giant earth bears and try Chixi's specialty, honey-roasted bear paws. Now we will rush back to the Titan to rest.
"For a moment," Yue Jinghua looked at the sky, ordered the imperial soldiers to pack their bags and go back.
Just as he was about to walk through the mountains, Yue Jinghua felt a powerful mental wave.
Immediately afterwards, on the hilly line in front, a group of late returning birds flew away, and the waves seemed to be shaking from far to near.
Half a day later, the airship Titan landed from the sky and docked at the Heixiazi Ridge mentioned by Jin Nuo.
