Outside world.
The black forest shrouded by night is more dangerous than during the day. Not only does the temperature drop to the point where water drips into ice, powerful monsters also like to come out in the dark to hunt their prey.
In this vast area, under every decayed leaf are the remains of the dead.
Those terrible beings have all kinds of weird hobbies. They may like to chew living flesh, they may like to torment poor souls, or they may destroy a village just because of boredom.
In a hole in the forest, Todd the Orc was struggling to block a big rock, leaving only a small gap to let the wind through. He completed this work very carefully, because any negligence would bring a fatal threat.
The two left Razor Village for several days. Zhou Qingfeng didn't explain the disappearing skeletons and dragon dung, and Todd didn't bother to ask. The orc only said that he would take Zhou Qingfeng on an adventure, but the orc was obviously enthusiastic for three minutes. On the first day, he was enthusiastic about becoming a great hero, and on the second day he became hungry because he didn't bring enough food.
Since he couldn't count, Todd couldn't remember how much dried meat was stored in the dragon's nest. Zhou Qingfeng not only took the dragon dung to the fat field, but also removed half of the jerky that was stored. When the two were on the road, the supplies they carried were not enough to eat on the road.
In contrast, Zhou Qingfeng is even more a rookie living in the wild.
"I don't understand, how could someone like you run to the Black Forest alone." Todd blocked the entrance of the cave and looked back at the campfire in the cave. "This place is not suitable for novice activities at all."
Zhou Qingfeng hugged the magnolia for two or three hours in the real night, until it was cold at night. He left the skeleton'farmer' on the reality side of the time-space gate and froze, and when he returned to another world, he was busy filling the bonfire with firewood to make the flames burn more vigorously.
Todd shouted again: "Don't burn too much, do you want us to suffocate to death? Or do you want to use up all the firewood in the middle of the night, and then freeze alive? I still want to ask, how do you Live until now?"
The temperature in the Black Forest is high during the day, but it is deadly cold at night. Being despised by a smelly orc, Zhou Qingfeng could only bear it.
This big man with thick arms and legs, and a tower-like figure, looks rough, but in fact has a wealth of experience in wild survival. The wild is Todd's home. From the moment he was born, the orc was learning how to adapt to this cruel and ruthless world.
With Todd in, Zhou Qingfeng learned to identify those places in the Black Forest that are dangerous, those places are safe, those things can be eaten, and that road can be walked. For him now, this knowledge does not change his wealth.
"This snake-necked chicken is also unlucky. It was actually killed by a rookie like you. It may have just fought with other enemies who invaded the territory, otherwise it can continuously fire magic missiles and kill you."
Todd mocked to his heart's content, ridiculing Zhou Qingfeng's ignorance. He returned to the campfire and looked at the chicken grilled on the fire with greedy eyes, "Snake-neck chicken is actually quite terrible, and I don't usually want to provoke it. But the meat of this chicken is delicious and very delicious."
There is a huge pheasant roasting on the fire, which Zhou Qingfeng hunted and killed during the day. This strange chicken was plucked, had its intestines broken to remove its internal organs, and was roasted with a stick through the rack. The chicken was roasted golden brown, the fat dripped, sneered, and the smell was fragrant.
Todd looked greedy. He was not afraid of being scalded, and reached out his hand to tear off a thick chicken leg with a black mushroom to chew.
Zhou Qingfeng twisted another chicken leg. Before he could screw off the drumsticks, the orcs ate the drumsticks into chicken bones in two bites.
This chicken weighs about 20 catties, and a chicken leg weighs three to four catties. Zhou Qingfeng finally tore off his hot chicken leg, and Todd had already unceremoniously grabbed the rest of the chicken in his hand and ate Hesai.
Running around in the forest with Todd, working hard all day, Zhou Qingfeng was so hungry that his chest was pressed against his back, but he couldn't eat like Todd. He blew and took a bite, and before he had finished eating, Todd ate the whole chicken with only a skeleton.
This so-called "snake neck chicken" is very tender and delicious without any seasoning. There are also the humble black mushrooms, which are crispy to eat, which not only replenish water, but also have a sweet taste.
Zhou Qingfeng felt that he could not finish the big drumstick in his hand. What you can eat and eat is also wiped out for him. When he felt fullness in his stomach, he breathed a long and comfortable sigh of relief, and his whole body was warm and relaxed.
"Todd, you have taken me around these days, where are you going?"
The orc was also full of food and drink, paralyzed by the campfire belching, and said: "I didn't say where to go? I've been dangling around."
What... ...
Zhou Qingfeng immediately sat up and said angrily: "You dragged me off Razor Cliff, so that I would follow you too?"
Todd's eyes widened, as if he had just remembered his original purpose. He slapped his head suddenly, "Ah..., I said I want to take you on an adventure." Watching Zhou Qingfeng get angry, he hurriedly shouted: "Tomorrow we will go to the nearby settlement to find if there is anything we can do
Don't worry, there are always disputes in the Black Forest. I promise that as long as you stay here for a month, your enemies will be everywhere, and you won’t have to fight. "
Zhou Qingfeng's eyes narrowed, "What are you talking about? The risk is to find someone to fight and make enemies?"
"Isn't it?" Todd spread his hands and said innocently: "Our orcs have always been like this. As long as you fight hard enough, you will be famous. When everyone is afraid of you, you will be a hero."
Fuck you orcs!
Lao Tzu is human!
How could I have no ambitions like you, wandering around and fighting in the forest every day
Seeing that Zhou Qingfeng was about to get to the brink of anger, Todd hurriedly shouted: "Well, I know that you humans are different. But the last time you challenged the dragon, you were constantly fighting, but you can resist Longwei. , This makes me especially admire."
The orc babbled and promised to find something to do tomorrow. The two slept in their clothes by the bonfire, and the whole night passed.
The next day.
The bonfire in the cave had burned out, and Todd the Orc pushed away the stone blocking the cave and carefully probed the movement outside. The sky is gloomy today, occasionally thundering, it seems to be raining.
"I didn't smell the goblin's stench. It should be safe outside." Todd got out of the cave and ran around the trees with his big axe. Then he spent half a day walking through the woods and hillsides to find human settlements.
White Crow Camp.
Compared with the razor village that was built indiscriminately before, the construction of the White Crow Camp is much better. It is located on a low hillside with a wooden fence of more than five meters, and the wall is filled with two meters of sand. Simple and practical design brings strong defense capabilities.
Strong arrow towers are built on the walls, and each arrow tower has a dedicated person to operate a powerful ballista. Under the wall is a deep trench with sharp wooden stakes. Anyone who wants to cross will pay a price.
When Todd showed up outside the camp with Zhou Qingfeng, the people inside the camp were immediately alert. A few tens of meters away, someone was yelling loudly, and the ballistas on the two arrow towers took aim.
"Don't be too nervous, let alone hide. The people in the White Crow camp are pretty good at talking." Todd waved his hand to the fence pretendingly and indicated that he was not hostile. "You are a stranger, and the people in the camp will definitely interrogate. So you better not cause trouble."
As the distance gets closer, it can be seen that this camp is not big, and there should be only two or three hundred people in it.
The wooden building is simple and rough, and many of the wood materials are not even peeled off the bark, so they are tied in layers with thick rattan to form the walls of the building. The structure is sturdy and durable, almost unbreakable.
The camp has no doors, only a hanging basket can enter and exit. A guard recognized the orc at the wall and shouted: "Todd, I heard that you were caught by a group of goblins."
Todd was so angry that he almost swung his axe out.
