Twelve hours later, Xueming and Oscar were on the road again, crossing rugged hills, passing three road signs, and then walking across the frozen river before arriving at an abyss.
This deep gorge of more than 20 meters wide blocked Brother Lang, with only two frozen cables. These cables were also convenient passages left by the explorers of the Silver Helmet Hunting Group. When they first came here to explore, they held ice axes.
Little by little, we descended to the valley floor of more than 200 meters and then slowly climbed up. After such a long detour, we were able to leave behind strong pitons one by one.
"Gunsmith, I can't make it." Oscar shook his head repeatedly, looking at the rope as thick as his thumb. With his weight, it was as difficult as climbing the icy ropeway.
"Can you ask classmate Xiao Huang to give us a ride?" the gunsmith asked.
Oscar smiled and replied: "Hey! How can it understand human speech? You have to train it for at least half a year before this beast understands commands. It takes time to train an eagle."
With that said, Brother Wolf grabbed the head of the big yellow chicken. The raptor was restrained by its sharp claws and suddenly became impatient. It followed curiously, and its survival wisdom only stopped at [expressing friendliness] and
[It will not take the initiative to attack] In two aspects, it is not like the mythical beast in the novel that recognizes its master and immediately understands the protagonist's commands without any training.
"Besides." Oscar added: "It can't bear my weight. I think it has thin arms and legs. Didn't the remains of the giant beast that fell to death trap it? Judging from the tonnage, it can't stand it either."
It wasn't it, it should have been its parents who chased it, drove the prey to the edge of the cliff and forced it to die. Logically speaking, this meal was a coming-of-age gift from its parents."
"Okay, then I'll go in alone." Jiang Xueming hung the safety rope on the cable: "Is there anything else you want to say?"
Oscar used local materials and used the wood and bark of the giant tree to build a small shack, which was like a doghouse. Only he, a wolf, could get in and exhale with his big nose exposed.
"Let's chat for a while, gunsmith? Are you in a hurry?"
Jiang Xueming squatted at the door of the kennel and saw Oscar sitting cross-legged inside. It felt a bit strange, just like the wild temple of the earth god.
"No hurry, just say it."
The golden eagle griffon was freezing outside, and when it saw how warm the shack was, it immediately clucked and screamed, so Xueming took out the ice-breaking ax and went to get the wood to build the shed.
He first laid a layer of dry grass blades, then cut the wood into Y-shaped spikes. After setting the stakes, he slowly filled in the frame. During this period, Brother Wolf kept asking questions, like a curious baby.
"Gunsmith, I only know that you are going to fake your death, and I don't know what Nameless Doe is going to do next. It's not convenient for me to ask about this - and you can't ask Victor to read me a story, okay? I will keep it a secret."
Xueming asked while working: "What I said doesn't count..."
The trip to Shambhala is crucial. If Brother Lang's big mouth doesn't keep the secret, it will determine the outcome of the final battle in the autumn.
"Oh..." Oscar felt a little regretful: "It's just a pity..."
Jiang Xueming: "What are you regretting?"
"I fought side by side with characters from heroic legends! It's very honorable to tell it!" Oscar yelled, and the whole wolf trembled with excitement: "Then the family status must not be increased slowly? From now on, you have to listen to me whatever Lani eats.
!The two babies will also regard me as the leader of the tribe!"
Qingjin's family social environment is very special, just like a human family raising puppies.
When a puppy comes to a new home, it will regard one family member as the leader of the clan no matter what. If others want to fiddle with it or knead it, it will also involuntarily express aggression, protect its food, and become violent if it is disobedient.
Grow.
This is the nature of wolf dogs. Oscar cares so much about this "family status" because the position of the head of the family has been dominated by his wife for a long time. Lapis has a long lifespan, and his family will spread out and spread when his life span is reached.
Before the end, he will probably have dozens of relatives, and when it comes to great-grandchildren, he will be the head of the family.
Oscar thinks beautifully.
If he can get such a mention in the history books, when he is old, his children and grandchildren will surround him and talk nonsense, and his little granddaughter will shout to him every day, "I haven't heard you talk about the gunsmith for three minutes."
It’s a story! I want to hear it!” This scene seemed like an extremely enjoyable article, and the walnuts he plated had to be engraved with the steel seal of Morpho Clothes.
"Are you concerned about this?" Jiang Xueming has never thought about this incident. He is not a person who cares about reputation, and he does not fully understand Brother Lang's spiritual needs.
Oscar immediately wagged his tail: "Of course! Of course! This is the job!"
"Then take this." Xueming took out a medal from his underwear, "This is the merit medal for the defense of Westbrook. It is the last battle medal I got after the battle of Sun Castle - wait for next year.
In the spring, take this to the BOSS and he will exchange it for a medal."
"Huh?" Oscar would be so shocked that he could not speak for a moment.
The gunsmith faked his death and did not participate in the battle of Sun Castle. This medal can only be obtained by the gunsmith from 9527 or the King of War - looking at the emblem pattern and gold edge of this shield-shaped medal, it is the first achievement in this battle.
, then it means that it is the meritorious service of the War King.
Oscar still doesn't understand the meaning of "Malika is Radagon", but he will never dare to accept such an expensive gift.
Jiang Xueming was still working, so he took the time to explain: "When the time comes, you can just say whatever chapter the BOSS wants to change for you. For example, [Sword-Seeking Warrior], or [Certificate of the Brave One Who Defeated the Mountain Demon], whatever you want
It’s a lucky draw. A few years ago, BOSS was so happy that he liked to create new badge designs - he said that he had never given so many awards to so many human brave men in his life."
"This belongs to the King of War...I don't...I can't..." Oscar stuttered when he spoke.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "You should treat the King of War as my eldest sister." Jiang Xueming sealed the roof of the shack and covered it with a layer of large leaves to prevent wind.
He drove the golden eagle in. The beast was not happy at first and seemed to be a little rebellious. But when he arrived at the shack, the big bird immediately lay down and soon turned over and lay on its back.
"I am the male of the family, and this eldest sister is a demon who helps her younger brother. She will deal with any difficult enemies. The medals are also given to me and Xiaoqi for safekeeping. I am a waste of money and never care about these things.
.”
At this point, Brother Lang suddenly became confused——
——These words sounded unreal to him. They were completely different from the gunsmith in his impression.
Oscar initially thought that the gunsmith was a genius, a genius with psychic abilities related to combat. According to the materials given by the boss and the media, this genius seemed to be always aloof. He should be arrogant and conceited.
Yeah, he should be a weirdo who doesn't like the fireworks of the world.
Because geniuses have strong personalities that are difficult for ordinary people to understand, this powerful emotional energy gives them outstanding skills.
However, after Oscar spent more than a month eating, drinking, and sleeping with the gunsmith, he found that this guy was so ordinary that he was a bit scary. He seldom spoke and just did whatever he encountered. Whenever a crisis came, he never hesitated.
This "lack of hesitation" is what surprises and scares Brother Lang.
Fighting against war gang criminals is the bounden duty of the Anonymous. Fighting against St. Josh can also be seen as the gunsmith providing a full set of after-sales services for the security of the underground world, and he did not encounter any danger during the process.
However, in order to solve the trouble, the gunsmith rushed into Limbo without looking back, and passed through the nine hells before returning to the human world.
No matter how determined the red stone man is, he will tremble when he goes to the completely unknown spiritual world. Courage is indeed a master key, but it is too difficult to obtain it.
Later, while trekking in the deep and freezing valley, how did the gunsmith defeat the mountain monster?
Oscar didn't know anything about this, and the gunsmith didn't brag about it. The taciturn [introverted boy] almost didn't mention the whole process, leaving only Brother Wolf unlimited room for imagination.
It must have been a fierce battle. No matter how powerful the spirit was, if it wanted to face off against a mythical creature, it had to consider its killing efficiency and its own defense. The gunsmith's body was too fragile, not even as good as Oscar's health.
Courage seems to have become a part of the gunsmith, which is incredible for Oscar.
In Big Wolf's life, he has met many brave hunters and many ordinary people struggling for life. There are many crucial multiple-choice questions in life, especially life-and-death problems. These people are looking for solutions.
When trying to solve a problem, you will always be hesitant, you will always question your ability, or you will be defeated by pride. You will make the wrong choice for a while, and you will lose your courage.
But the gunsmith did not hesitate. When Oscar and him faced DB at the same time, Brother Wolf was ready to sacrifice. But the moment he gave in, the big wolf would tremble with fear, tuck his tail and wait for death.
Oscar couldn't see any timidity in this man, and now he was going to an unknown land alone, which gave Oscar the illusion that the gunsmith seemed to be too ordinary.
Oscar asked in shock: "You don't want such an important medal?"
"It's not that I don't want it anymore, I'll let you leave a token. To let the boss know that you helped me, I have to provide some evidence." Jiang Xueming replied casually: "My eldest sister will take it back later."
Oscar licked his lips nervously. Unexpectedly, his spiritual pursuit seemed to be nothing in the eyes of the gunsmith. This was what made him feel annoyed and impatient, so he asked.
"Great hero, you said..."
"You have been running around and fighting for so many years. If it is not for these names, if it is not for the fame and glory and wealth, what do you want to do? To be honest, your Brother Lang is quite confused - I am just a
Ordinary people, I have been a dog for more than two hundred years, and have been replaced by several war brothers. Later, I assisted the trainers in training military dogs. After I obtained the soul power, I became a magical creature. I helped people test poisons and help people find ingredients.
"
"I know, after doing these things, people will respect me and praise me, and I will have a better life. Isn't this the truth?"
Gunsmith: "Yeah."
Oscar: "Then you handed this medal of merit to me without saying a word. I feel terrible. If I lost it and accidentally showed it to others, it would be so troublesome to explain.
Do you have to wait until next year? With my personality and my big mouth, can you trust me with this thing?"
"You are quite self-aware." Jiang Xueming suddenly grinned and stretched out his hand to get the medal back.
But Brother Lang regretted it and held on to the token tightly.
Jiang Xueming simply let go: "You'd better take it, your body is too honest."
"That won't work..." Brother Lang immediately changed his mind: "Can you change it to a token? Give me your bank card."
"I won't change it!" Jiang Xueming didn't have time to argue with this coy red stone man: "That's it, I still have to swipe my card to eat!"
"As for the questions you asked, I also talked about this with BOSS at the beginning."
Xueming returned to the frozen cable and gently knocked off the broken ice on the rope.
He said casually——
"——When I first came to the underground world, I thought it was a good place. I could travel around and have a suitable job. I seemed to be good at it."
"Then some crazy cultists blocked the way. I thought they were not good and they had to get better."
"So I continued to hone my skills. Now the cultists of Crazy Butterfly are almost killed. When next spring, I can go back to the coffee shop, go back to the club, and listen to people telling stories with Meteor."
"When there are problems in life, they have to be solved."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "As for this medal, I really don't care. If you think it is a burden, it is better to regard it as a trial. My teacher said -
"
"——This is a joust of knights."
"If you can help me keep this secret, you will definitely gain something when you become the winner."
Saying this, Xueming had already crawled out.
Brother Wolf looked at the gunsmith's figure thoughtfully. He thought about it for a long time. This dog's brain was too cold to move quickly, so he stopped thinking about it.
In mid-air, the strong wind blowing from the mountain stream made Xueming's figure sway unsteadily. He admired these bold and careful explorers more and more - they could still open up a new shortcut in such desperate places.
He didn't tell Brother Lang everything. In fact, he just wanted to go a long way, just like Ao Mingde's career.
For travelers, the Crazy Butterfly Holy Cult is also a natural disaster and a natural disaster.
Defeating them is like overcoming mountains and deep valleys, crossing rugged rivers and fighting snakes, insects and beasts.
There are uneven roads everywhere, and there must be people who can smooth them out. If no one takes the long way around, where will the shortcuts be?
He still felt that these words were a bit arrogant and he didn't want to say them out loud, but just kept them in his heart.
[Gunsmith, pay more attention.]
Belloberg reminded his master that the rope was very thin and it was not easy to cross the twenty meters safely. If he lost his footing, he would be dead.
"Okay." Xueming replied.
[Stop talking.]
Xueming immediately shut up. When he climbed to the other side, he saw a village with beautiful mountains and rivers. There were many old wooden buildings and huge "stone hearts". He walked along several paths.
When he arrived in front of these strange stone buildings, Xueming saw clearly that the heart-shaped stones were all composed of rune-patterned stone tablets.
He was shocked to find that there were more than sixty such stone tablets, varying in size, some several meters high, and some more than ten meters high. The largest heart was almost thirty meters high, like
A tall building.
These heart-shaped stones are built around the rooms in the small village, and in the center is a spring that emits strong light. This is the center of the Elf Holy Land - the blue skylight seen before is emanating from here.
"friend."
Xueming called to Beloberg.
"Where should I go to find you?"
"Explain to me? What's going on with these stones? I can't possibly go back with these stones, right? I don't have the ability."
[Now you know how to ask me?]
[Gunsmith! Your modern civilization, Homo sapiens, is made up of light and electricity!]
[Elf is Mimir’s spiritual energy, how much energy do you want to take away?]
[Nikola Tesla once said this, and we elves also think it makes sense. He saw the essence of things deeply.]
[Matter is the expression of the light of energy, because energy is something older and more distant.]
[As long as light is still shining and the speed of light is still constant, then it will exist forever and the universe will still exist.]
[In fact, the same goes for psychic powers.]
[We are a huge ethnic group and an external manifestation of Mimir’s spiritual energy.]
[And after I was separated from a whole body and became an artifact of Ao Hun Ming De, I could no longer speak.]
[Actually, I really want to keep talking, keep talking. When we first met, did you think I was drawing a heart with you? This is actually my original form - I am a heart of stone.]
[I am an ancient elf, so old that the moment Mimir was knocked down by the Vita brand, there were many chaotic consciousnesses running rampant, expressing his own thoughts crazily. At this time——]
[——There is a sound with a constant frequency that wants to tear me apart.]
[It has no beginning and end. It said that there must be a light, so I appeared immediately. This light made other elves feel at ease.]
[These stones hide a part of me. I am both Mimir and Beloberg.]
[How much do you want? Go get it yourself! But before that, you have to overcome a difficulty.]
[This village is the temporary residence of elves. You have also seen that after Aohun Mingde found suitable spirits to make artifacts, they have left here. The rune-patterned stone tablets found by the hunters are only a very small part.
.]
[Want to wake me up again and turn me into a sword in your hand?]
[You have to jump into the spring, because that's where the light is -]
[—Are your little heads starting to spin? Do you want to go back and get a set of diving equipment?]
Jiang Xueming said nothing, he was a little dull.
Unexpectedly, Belloberg also started talking to him about the sense of ritual. It felt like a naughty little girl fighting against him.
[If I hadn’t told you earlier, I wouldn’t have told you earlier.]
[As for the questions you asked before, why did you help Maguire and why did you become a scalpel in the hands of others?]
[Actually, I don’t want to go back to Belloberg, the gunsmith at all.]
[I don’t want to see you raising your sword again. After the expedition, I can feel that you are very happy, happier than ever before.]
[You have children, you have your own life, you no longer have to run around for work, and you don’t have to face death threats all the time. This is a good thing.]
[There are many, many people you want to protect...]
[I just want to chat and talk with you occasionally.]
[Don’t go to Shambhala, right? That’s not the enemy you have to face. That dangerous place doesn’t even have the blessing of proud and ruthless virtue. How do you defeat these eternal beings who are struggling to survive and have no desire to make progress? Among them
There are too many variables. With the Cauldron of Dagda in their hands, who knows what will happen? What if they use this almighty wishing cup to curse you to death?]
[People only know that you are great, but they far underestimate your greatness.]
[I would rather you stay. After getting Beloberg back, will you go on adventures again? Will you have the confidence to fight the disaster beasts again? Fight with the transformed butterfly? Arm-wrestle with these terrifying monsters?]
[But the only person I want to protect the most is you. If you want to count another half, it should be Bu Liuxing.]
"Okay, okay, the concentration of the second dimension is too high."
Xueming took out the hilt of his sword and threw it into the spring.
"You learned this set of words from Meteor? Tensuo Zangetsu, right?"
