After bidding farewell to the old giant Shanteng, Gao Jing sat back on Shan Guoer's shoulders and continued to visit the mountain villages.
He expressed his gratitude to Santo for his generosity in a way that the other party could understand.
But not even a fragment of the small-leaf red sandalwood was taken away.
If you were a short-sighted person, you would definitely want to pack all the top-quality ingredients back.
Anyway, to the mountain giants, these woods are worthless at all.
However, Gao Jing's mind is not so narrow-minded.
Even if he was allowed to pull the red sandalwood on the ground, how much could he take away?
It only weighs one or two hundred pounds.
After several back and forth transmissions, Gao Jing already knew that the supplies he could carry with him were limited, and he could not take them back if they exceeded the limit.
The storage space that appears after the upgrade of the copper anchor solves this problem to a large extent.
But Gao Jing will never expose the existence of storage space easily in front of others.
Especially the big world.
Because he is too weak here, so weak that any naughty child from the mountain tribe can easily crush him to death.
Gao Jing simply couldn't imagine what consequences it would bring to him once the secret of the copper anchor was leaked!
Even though the villagers of the Mountain Tribe look very simple, Shan Guoer is very interesting, and the old wizard Shan Yan is very kind.
Don't try to test people's hearts either.
Gao Jing deeply understood this truth very early on.
The most important thing is that he can get what he wants in a safe and reliable way.
So there is no need to rush at all.
Of course, Gao Jing has not forgotten the kindness of the mountain giant who saved him.
But one code equals one code.
He just needs to work hard to find a way to repay him.
No matter how long the mountain road is, at the end of the walk, the exit of the valley appears in Gao Jing's sight.
The terrain in front is very flat and open.
The position at the mouth of the valley suddenly narrows, and the term "bottleneck" is more appropriate.
A wall with a height of more than 100 meters stretches across the entrance of the valley, becoming a barrier to the village.
This huge wall is made of large rocks and thousands of logs, firmly guarding the key position of the valley.
There is a taller watchtower behind the wall, with giants guarding it.
Although from Gao Jing's perspective, both the village wall and the sentry tower were very crudely built.
Same style as the wooden house above.
However, the sense of security that such a solid wall brings to people cannot be replaced by anything else.
"Hey ha!"
"kill!"
Twenty or thirty giants wearing animal skins were diligently practicing martial arts in the open space below the sentry tower.
They were obviously warriors from the mountain tribes. All of them had extremely strong muscles. Their bronzed skin shone in the sunlight, and their crystal sweat shone brightly.
The warriors wielded stone axes, bone clubs and other weapons, either practicing alone or competing with each other.
The scene was quite intense.
"That's Brother Shantai..."
Shan Guoer pointed at one of the tribal warriors and said proudly: "The most powerful totem warrior in our tribe!"
Gao Jing looked in the direction of her finger.
That was the tallest and strongest giant among all the tribal warriors.
He held up a heavy round stone ball with both hands, sometimes throwing it high and catching it like a basketball, sometimes placing the surprisingly heavy stone ball and sliding it around on different parts of his body.
The movements are very flexible and skillful.
Gao Jing guessed that the other party was practicing some special skills.
He couldn't understand it, but he must be very powerful.
Gao Jing also noticed that the totem warrior's upper body was covered with complicated tattoos.
As he moves, the tattoo graphics continue to change, even giving people the illusion of coming back to life and breaking free!
Bang!
Probably getting tired of playing, the totem warrior named Shantai threw the stone ball on the ground.
Let the earth tremble!
Its power can only be described as terrifying.
At this time, Shantai seemed to feel something, and suddenly turned his head and looked towards where Gao Jing and Shan Guoer were.
Even from a long distance away, Gao Jing could still see the sharp flash in his eyes.
The totem warrior grinned, raised his thick arm and waved.
Shan Guoer waved to him in response.
"Let's go back."
After saying hello, the little girl said to Gao Jing: "Don't disturb their practice."
Of course Gao Jing had no objection.
At this point, the visit to all the mountain tribe villages has been completed.
Shan Guoer took Gao Jing back to the original wooden house.
Entering the house, Gao Jing was surprised.
Not a single one of the bear cubs we met earlier were left inside.
There were also a few more children who looked older.
Everyone was sitting on the ground, with a small wooden table in front of them.
There are branches and a wooden sandbox on the table.
The big table where Gao Jing rested last night has been moved to the side, and the old wizard Shan Yan is sitting next to the table.
On the right side of the wizard stands a gray-white stone slab ten meters wide and almost twenty meters high.
Gao Jing remembered that this stone slab was placed against the wall last night.
There is a small table empty at the position closest to the stone slab.
"grandfather!"
Shan Guoer ran over and sat down at the small table.
She put Gao Jing on the table.
Gao Jing suddenly felt like he was back in his student days, attending morning classes!
Shan Yan nodded to him and said, "Children, today I will teach you the new Dahuang Wen."
It’s really a class!
Gao Jing quickly sat upright and adjusted the GoPro hanging on his shoulder.
Fortunately, he was prepared and took the GoPro with him to shoot.
Moreover, I also purchased special recording accessories for GoPro, as well as new memory cards and spare batteries.
It just comes in handy now.
The old wizard picked up a black charcoal branch and wrote the first word on the stone slab.
"Yue, this is the word Yue for our mountain tribe!"
Gao Jing's attention was immediately attracted.
He found that the Dahuang script taught by the old wizard was very similar to the Chinese he was most familiar with.
Both are hieroglyphics.
Dahuang inscriptions are ancient and neat, much like oracle bone inscriptions.
Under the influence of the Yan Xiao Talisman, Gao Jing was able to understand the Dahuang language.
He has a good memory and strong learning ability. He was the top student in the class back then, so it is not difficult to master Dahuang script, which is the same type as Chinese.
The old wizard took good care of Gao Jing's learning progress and taught him the second one immediately after he finished learning one Dahuang script.
He doesn't care about other students at all, including his own little granddaughter.
With GoPro in charge of recording, Gao Jing was not worried about not being able to keep up with the progress and learned with gusto.
I just tortured those little bears like this.
They were holding branches and scratching their heads and ears in front of the wooden sand table, all with sad faces.
The learning ability is quite urgent.
This is only the beginning.
In the following days, Gao Jing studied Dahuang literature with the old wizard in this wooden house every day.
He spent most of his time studying and rarely left the cabin.
Often forgetting to eat and sleep.
It wasn't until half a month later that the effect of the Yan Xiao Talisman completely disappeared——
