Chapter 214 Another Identity
The group of people wandered around Sinard Village, and when it was getting dark, they arrived at the home of a young man from the Dragon Tribe.
His home is not big, and it cannot be called "elegant", but it is clean and the daily necessities are arranged neatly.
It can be seen that this is a person who lives a very disciplined life.
A few people sat cross-legged on the ground. After waiting for a short time, the young man and an old woman from the Dragon Tribe brought out the dinner.
Meals are mainly vegetarian.
Carefully cooked bean stewed tofu, which is very delicious, coated in thin egg wash, fresh wild vegetables fried in tea, a delicious soup made from some kind of fermented soybean and dried shiitake mushrooms, as well as Padoku and Koyama Like a lot of rice balls.
Even a carnivore like Gordon enjoyed his meal.
“It’s all crude food.”
The young man from the Dragon tribe said sheepishly: "It is difficult to transport materials up the mountain, and the environment here is not suitable for animal husbandry. Over the past few hundred years, the tribe has not been used to eating meat. It is really disrespectful."
Gordon and the three of them said no, and Pork Chop also said that he likes rice **** wrapped in dried plums.
“By the way, when we wandered around the village before, we found that there were few young people in the village, and most of them were elderly people and children.”
Gordon stuffed half a rice ball into his mouth and asked, "Where have all the young people gone?"
“Oops, that’s the problem.”
The young man from the Dragon tribe scratched the back of his head and said, "Actually, it's pretty much what you thought. In the village on the mountain, life is leisurely and hard-working, and it's suitable for ignorant young children and elderly people.
But if you are a teenager who is curious about everything, or a young man who wants to make a career, this place will be too boring.
So many people have gone down the mountain and left. Some will come back here when they are tired or old, and some may settle in other places. "
Speaking of this, the young man smiled openly, "But this also keeps the number of people in this small village at a relatively healthy number.
This is also part of the balance of nature. "
Gordon swallowed the rice ball blankly.
Once again, I was sure in my heart that this guy, whose name had never been revealed, was definitely not an ordinary young farming man.
This way of thinking is strangely detached.
Perhaps because the conversation got interesting, the young man from the dragon race kept chatting to himself.
“But having said that, the guy who shouted ‘The world is so big, I want to see it’ and ran down the mountain, I don’t know how he is doing now.”
Nadia put down the antique lacquered red soup bowl and asked curiously: "Are the people leaving your friends or family members? If you have general information, we may be able to help you find out later."
"Really?"
The young man from the Dragon Tribe laughed happily, "It's my brother. The Xiqi Kingdom is isolated overseas, and there is no news on Sky Mountain. The last time I received a letter from him was three or four years ago."
With that said, the young man stood up, ran to the drawer excitedly and took out a piece of yellowed letter paper.
“Is it okay?”
“It’s okay, let’s see.”
After receiving the young man's confirmation, Nadia took the letter and her expression became subtle after a few glances.
She passed the letter to Julius and Gordon.
The content on the letter paper is very simple, only one sentence.
[Relying on everyone’s efforts, the Jiangbo Village freight wharf has finally been built! The village will develop rapidly in the future. Come to Jiangbo when you have time to see the results of my efforts! ]
A few people looked at each other.
Julius handed the letter back and asked at the same time: "Is your brother in Jiangbo Village?"
The young man from the Dragon tribe said with some distress: "At the beginning, I often sent letters saying that the location of the village was confirmed, and a tough-headed dual-sword wielder came to the village.
Perhaps you were too busy later? Even the letters gradually stopped being sent. "
“It is indeed the famous pioneering village chief.” Gordon muttered in a low voice.
“Huh? Is your brother famous?” The young man from the dragon tribe has very good hearing.
Nadia smiled and said: "Yes, your brother is very famous. He built the most prosperous stronghold in the southeast of the continent from scratch, attracting many businessmen and hunters who are keen to explore."
“That’s it, then I’m relieved.”
The young man from the Dragon Tribe said with a smile: "Can I trouble you? Take a letter for me when you go down the mountain. When you get to the city, give it to the inn and send it to Jiangbo Village.
The magnetic field here at Sky Mountain is abnormal, and homing pigeons and peregrine falcons can easily get lost. I don’t know when the next airship will come. "
“Of course, no problem.” Nadia nodded.
The young man from the dragon tribe smiled even more happily, "I can't let your help be in vain. Let's do this. Tomorrow you can go to Maka's alchemy house and find the 14th generation.
Well, in short, he is just a kid with a big frog on his hat. Just say that I asked you to come, and he will give you a surprise. "
Sleeping to the sound of the wind, Gordon and his party spent a peaceful night at the home of a young man from the Dragon Tribe.
Most hunters have the habit of doing morning exercises, so they all get up very early, but the young man from the dragon tribe seems to have gotten up earlier than them, and they don’t know where they went.
Breakfast was brought over by the old lady last night.
After everyone had filled their stomachs, a dragon girl with a cool expression came to them, carrying a bow and arrow.
The bow and arrows behind the girl are not the large hunting bows used by monster hunters, but ordinary bows and arrows used by ordinary people to shoot birds and rabbits.
It can be seen that she is very interested in the "Fire Dragon Cannon", the light crossbow behind Nadia. While trying to maintain a "mature" expression on her face, she peeks at it enviously.
None of the three Gordons looked very kind. Finally, Nadia, who was also a woman, stepped forward and asked: "Little sister, may I ask you something?"
The girl immediately looked away and said with a straight face: "The monk is busy with something, please send me here!"
The girl who realized that she had let slip her words suddenly covered her mouth, her cheeks turning red visibly.
ˆ Gordon Three: "."
Julius must have learned the inside story from the guild in advance, and Gordon and Nadia had already guessed it. They had a tacit understanding with each other, but the girl revealed it.
Looking at the girl's confused look, Julius sighed softly, "Don't panic, we know the identity of the great monk, so why did he send you here?"
“That’s it, it scares me to death!” The girl patted her chest and felt relieved.
Gordon suddenly felt that this guy looked a bit like Feng Ying, silly.
The girl's face became serious again, "The great monk is sending me to guide you all. He ordered you to take you to the alchemy house first, and then when you are ready to leave for the hunting ground, I will also guide you."
The hunters exchanged glances.
Since the girl knew about the alchemy house, it must have been the young man from the dragon tribe, or the great monk who sent her here.
“Then please lead the way.”
"You are welcome."
The village of Sinard is very small. Under the leadership of the girl, everyone walked through the narrow village road and arrived in front of a small house in a few minutes.
The girl stepped forward and knocked on the door.
No one responded.
The girl slapped the array hard again, and the door was finally opened.
A little fat man from the Dragon tribe with a big frog on his head, yawning and rubbing his eyes, appeared in front of everyone.
