Chapter 180 One night(1/3)
The bright bonfire in the center of the ruins casts the shadow of the broken wall deeply into the ground, dragging it for a long time.
There are light clouds floating in the night sky over Changhu Lake, and a silvery-white crescent moon hangs quietly above the peaks. Silvery gray is plated on the forest canopy. The breeze blows, and the sand and waves are undulating.
Mr. Gray Rock, as silent and tenacious as his tribe should be, stood quietly among the ruins, like a towering silhouette under the light of the bonfire. Only the undulating back and the shadow of the platform above were exposed.
Like a dream, accompanied by Lin Tao's voice, it sneaks into everyone's heart.
The smell of molasses floated in the air, accompanied by the sound of sizzling fat touching hot metal. Attila was using a brush filled with syrup to apply a second layer on the golden shell of the ribs.
Brilliant color.
The grease mixed with syrup slowly dripped into the bonfire, and suddenly a ball of golden sparks lit up.
The syrup was obtained by cutting open the branches of a nearby low shrub, adding some wild honey, and adding some vanilla to create a refreshing fragrance.
There is also a matsutake bush, a row of prawns, some edible herbs, vetches and summer berries.
Miss Elf can always find convenient and suitable ingredients in the mountains and fields.
There are no supply points on the way to Idos. Although there are still grain reserves on the platform, in the Changhu area where food is plentiful, you can save as much rations as you can.
This is why they stopped to rest.
Fang Plover, on the other hand, was busy recording the ecology of those plants in a notebook - they were very different from their counterparts on the earth, but they belonged to the same family. His painting skills were quite good, but he was a little slow.
"What kind of tree is that?" he asked Miss Elf.
"Gray raspberry, its characteristics change in summer, and the pulp will have a sweet taste. It is a common condiment in Rotao."
Attila used a knife to cut off a small piece of meat and handed it to his mouth with a gentle look.
Fang Plover had food in his mouth and said vaguely: "Ah, I know this kind of tree. It's a subspecies of the raspberry family, a new species that's not found on earth... Well, it's delicious."
Tian Lan pouted her mouth so much that she looked at the 'siblings' from the side, her eyes turning red with jealousy.
She had obviously been slapped on the hand after eating secretly before, so why should she be the same person but have different fates?
Rhett looked at her with amusement, and cut a piece of meat from the grill and handed it over: "Try it?"
"No, big cats don't know how to grill meat!"
The lion paladin handed it to Ai Xiaoxiao who was aside. Seeing that the latter tasted a little, he asked: "How is it?"
The little girl nodded like garlic: "It's delicious!"
Rhett squinted at Tianlan, who made a face at him, turned around and ran to play with Jita.
Luo Yu was playing beast-fighting chess and won Parker. He was very worried and scratching his head.
Baggins sat under a laurel tree, concentrating on sharpening a new pipe with a knife.
The bonfire boiled the kettle hanging on the branches, and white steam steamed.
Sylvester's eyes were bright as she watched Siesta pour hot water into the petal-shaped tea cup in front of her, and the red tea leaves swirled in the white porcelain.
Siesta made another cup of tea for the elf lady sitting in front of her.
"Thank you." Tata looked up and replied.
"You are Welcome."
Sylvester smiled and answered for her silent maid.
Delise curled up into a snow-white ball, leaning against the bonfire not far away, squinting her eyes and rising and falling.
Nini was lying in her arms, curling her tail and falling asleep soundly. The newborn dragon soul seemed to be particularly sleepy.
Sparks jumped out of the bonfire, fell into the velvet, and rolled up a wisp of flame. The changing light left three or two staggered shallow shadows.
In the darkness, Alyssa looked focused, her eyes reflecting the dancing flames and a glossy page. She was holding up her hand, and her snowy fingertips kept swiping across the glossy page.
The box looked on curiously.
"what are you writing?"
Both of them were born in Listening to the Rain, and they had something in common. Miss Nightingale turned around and smiled at him:
"Writing to Alice."
In order to make up for her mistakes, Alice joined the Stargate Port Special Operations Team and was responsible for investigating the whereabouts of the Rainlistener's senior executives.
Since this matter is intertwined with the Dragon Worship Cult, there may be opportunities for them to cooperate again in the future.
There was a ghostly cry from Mr. Huiyan:
"Ouch, be gentle, it hurts!"
Tang Xin put down the magic wand in her hand and looked at this man angrily.
The Healer's Staff is the only magical device in Etalia that can convert etheric magic into light ether, which is divine power.
Only the craftsmen of the temple mastered the secret of making it, and the one she had was purchased from the Mirela Temple on the shore of the shallow golden lake, costing five thousand lisels.
She swept her snow-white sacrificial robe with her hand and said with a pretty face: "Big man, why are you afraid of pain!"
"Jita, leave him alone and bandage him!"
Jita took action in a hurry.
Luo Hao's face turned green and white in pain, and he shouted like a slaughtering pig: "Wait, can you do it!?"
"My level is low, why do you talk so much nonsense?"
"I know your level is low, but Miss Priest, please give me an analgesic first..."
"I forgot to learn."
"ah?"
Tian Lan sneaked out of the periphery of the ruins alone and looked back in the direction of the camp. The faint screams coming from behind the woods made her pout.
Ever since Brother Ed joined, Sister Attila has become more and more partial.
Jita doesn't play with her either.
And that stinky Luo Yu, who only knows alchemy or playing chess.
She hugged the magic harp and kicked a piece of gravel away with her strong kick. The stone rolled away far away. She watched the stone disappear into the shadows, sighed, and found a big stone outside the ruins to sit on.
Looking up at the bright moonlight in the night sky, I suddenly thought of home.
She plucked the strings twice and sang softly.
But the vultures that were having a dinner party not far away were so frightened that they flapped their wings and flew into the air.
When Tianlan saw this scene, she couldn't help but giggle. But after laughing for a while, she felt a little bored and pouted and said:
"Tch, that's really annoying."
Even these flat-haired beasts don't like to hear her sing.
But it was not her fault that she was tone-deaf. Tianlan suddenly felt very bored. She calculated that it was almost time to have dinner and was about to get off the rock and return to the camp.
But suddenly she stopped and looked straight to the north of the ruins.
Under the bright moonlight there, the winding road between the broken walls was clearly visible. And between a path that passed through layers of green ivy, the moonlight outlined a snow-white exposed remaining wall.
Under the wall, two figures were slowly passing by the ruins.
One of them was taller and wore a somewhat ragged cloak.
There is a shorter figure beside this figure, who seems to be a child.
The two of them didn't seem to notice the firelight here, and just walked forward, towards the direction of the forest.
Tian Lan watched this scene with her mouth wide open.
"Hey, you guys..."
She suddenly took her words back.
I didn't know where the courage came from in my heart, so I put down my piano and chased in that direction.
But before running a few steps, two figures entered the forest ahead.
Tianlan chased after her and took a look. There was fog in the forest, and there were no figures anywhere. She turned around again, only to realize that at some point she could no longer see the firelight in the direction of the camp.
…
When Rhett picked up the little girl from the woods.
Tianlan's face was pale, as if he had been frightened, and his whole body was soaked in mist.
Ai Xiaoxiao kindly put a towel on her, and Luo Yu asked worriedly:
"Where have you been? We found your piano."
Tianlan didn't even look at him, she just threw herself into Etila's arms and cried loudly. Then she sobbed and told everyone what happened from beginning to end.
"Two travelers?"
Everyone couldn't help but look at the big cat man and Baggins.
But the two people who went to look for the person shook their heads and said they didn't see anyone else.
To be continued...
