The long fairy road is wonderful

Chapter 308 Rachel Swamp
An encounter ended in such a short time. Kegel seemed to have not fought enough. He stood by the river and yelled at the lizardman for being unreasonable, but even if he scolded flowers, the lizardman would not turn around and die.

And others have other things to do.

The six lizardmen pressed the two tied lizardmen before, as if they were going to execute them. This is quite incredible in the lizardmen's view.

Because the living environment in the swamp is harsh, the lizard people are extremely united. Even when food is in short supply, the old lizard people will choose to end their lives to save resources for the adults and young children. There are very few fights among the same race, so Elma and the others The two tied lizardmen were a little interested.

Asking Kegel to help them untie the rope, the two lizard men looked at the group of adventurers very vigilantly.

"Thank you warm-blooded ones, thank you... hiss~, may the Goddess of Stone, hiss~ bless you all."

The so-called Mother of Stone is not a real god, but more similar to ancestor worship, which is the belief of the Lizardmen.

"Why were you arrested by those lizardmen?"

"They hiss! They are disrespectful, hiss~, they don't obey the instructions of the mother of stones."

Maybe it's a conflict of beliefs?
"Warm-blooded, if you want, hiss, we can lead the way through the swamp, hiss~"

This is indeed a good proposal. Even though Mystro's divination spell can point out the direction, it is often impossible to walk in a straight line when acting in the swamp.

There are many water systems and dense vegetation in the swamp, and there are many times when you have to take a detour. The actions of outsiders here are definitely not as familiar as the lizard people who have lived here for generations.

However, Alma and Redicia refused after a little consideration. Of course, the reason is that they don't trust these lizard heads. Their reputation is too bad. , Kegel has already split the ax up.

The proposal was rejected, but the two lizard men didn't have any special reaction. After thanking everyone again, they plunged into the river behind them, twirled and disappeared.

–‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐‐

Rejecting the lizardman's proposal to lead the way, everyone still had to rely on Mystra's prophecy spell to point out the way forward, especially in the afternoon when the sky began to gradually darken, and above the foggy swamp, one could clearly see Seeing light gray dark clouds, it seems that a storm is brewing.

But the good news is that they found a usable raft on the bank of a river. It should have been left by the people of Cuir Town when they went into the swamp to collect medicine. Although the swamp is difficult to walk and dangerous, there are many rafts in it. Rare medicinal materials can also be regarded as a major source of income for Cui Er Town.

Simply repair and strengthen the raft, and everyone sat on the raft down the river, which was not only more comfortable, but also less labor-intensive.

But the downside is that everyone has to keep an eye on the movement around the raft, because there are many dangerous creatures in the river.

Under the mist and dark clouds, everything looks gray, the air is humid and sticky, and it is not very comfortable to stick to the skin. From time to time, you can see a black shadow hidden in the trunks and bushes, like The swamp stared at the passing crowd.

Even staring at the water surface for a long time will produce very terrifying hallucinations, such as seeing a swollen corpse reaching out from under the water surface, as if trying to pull you into the water.

Mistro explained that this is an illusion caused by the special gas mixture in the swamp, as long as you pay more attention, it will not be affected too much.

But sometimes you have to be careful, otherwise you will take the hallucinations as real and the real as hallucinations.

I just floated along the river for an entire afternoon. Although it didn’t rain, the sky remained gloomy. The low air pressure made the surrounding hot and humid. Leticia, the girl who is afraid of heat, followed Brother Lin almost the whole time. Let's go, because he has his own air conditioner...

It can be said that after the torture of walking through the swamp this day, everyone felt very tired.

The only exception is little brother Lin, he is the most active one, relying on the advantage of being a monk who is not afraid of cold and heat.They encountered a two-meter-long crocodile on the way before. The others wanted to drive it away, but Brother Lin wanted to kill it and eat the meat.

It's just that the crocodiles don't seem to be stupid. Seeing that there are so many of them, they plunged into the water and disappeared after weighing it up.

But brother Lin is not without gains.

Due to the narrow river channel, most of the time the sides of the raft are not too far away from the shore. Lin Tianci searched for it while drifting, and finally caught more than a dozen crayfish...

Compared with the super-sized crayfish in the mountains in the southwest that look like they have eaten gold, the crayfish here are still not small, but they look much more normal.

When the others learned that Lin Tianci planned to eat this stuff, they all showed expressions of "You people from Eastern China are so fierce".

Because there are a lot of parasites in crayfish, Westerners will eat lobsters in the sea, but they are insensitive to crayfish and river crabs in swamps, because not only are they not tasty, but they are easy to get sick or even die after eating them, so they It is not recommended for Lin Tianci to eat it, even if he knows that monks have the ability to be invulnerable to all poisons.

In fact, this is a matter of handling, and if it is done well, it will be fine.

So when everyone got off the raft and prepared to set up camp, Lin Tianci started to deal with the crayfish.

Remove the shrimp head, carefully remove the shrimp thread, and apply ginger powder to enhance the flavor and freshness. This thing can also kill bacteria and insects.Add pepper and salt at the same time.

After all, in the wild, there is no way to eat spicy crayfish.

Lin Tianci set up a wind stove, poured some water into the pot that Mistro took out from the dimension pocket, and finally put in the processed crayfish and wine from the water hyacinth to make a decent pot of lobster soup.

The portion is only enough to serve one bowl per person, and everyone has some sympathy for eating crayfish. Everyone only eats soup and noodles or jerky. Lin Tianci eats almost all the tails of the crayfish himself.

It can only be said that this is a problem caused by different cultures, not to mention the inconvenient communication situation like now, even in the 21st century, foreigners express that they cannot accept that Chinese people eat brains.

The taste of the lobster soup can only be considered passable. Brother Lin also found a kind of leaf that looks like celery and shredded it into it. The taste is more like chives. Poisonous, all Lin Tianci did not add directly to the pot, but just ate it by itself.

After eating, everyone cleared out a place enough to put down sleeping bags or bedding rolls, and then began to arrange the vigil.

It is indeed an unwritten rule among adventurers that mages do not keep vigil, but an ordinary adventurer team will definitely not have a majority of spellcasters like a team of four magic kings.

At this time, Lin Tianci's benefits as a monk were reflected. He would not feel tired without sleeping for two or three days, and with the improvement of his cultivation, he now felt fine without sleeping for four or five days.

Therefore, the first half of the night, when sleepiness is most likely to be given to Lin Tianci and Kegel, and the second half of the night, to Leticia and Mistrow.

Redicia is more energetic than Erma because she used the dragon ointment.Mystra is purely due to the talent brought by the elf race.

Elves need very little sleep, and tree elves like Mystrel are no exception, as long as four hours is enough.

The night watchmen were decided. In order to ensure that they would have enough energy to deal with the danger the next day, everyone went to bed earlier than the ordinary adventurer team.

As night fell, it cast a shadow on the surrounding low bushes, and the thick fog that existed during the day not only did not dissipate at night, but became more rampant.

The heavier and heavier water vapor slowly rises from the surroundings, the moist touch is like a dead man's hand touching your cheek, the whole world in your eyes seems to be fading slowly in the mist, and all the scenes are blurred. It seems that on the far side, apart from the darkness, all that can be seen is the suffocating thick fog. Even the burning bonfire seems to be unable to dispel this tranquility.

As time passed, the surrounding became more and more terrifying, only Kegel was cutting wood with an ax and the slight sound of the firewood in the campfire.

In this environment, it seems that you can hear your own heartbeat, which is particularly harsh.

In such a depressing and terrifying environment, if you were an ordinary person, you might be forced to be nervous.But Lin Tianci has already cultivated a bravery in the training heart pavilion. It is no exaggeration to say that he has seen things more terrifying than what he saw before, and he didn't take it seriously. behind the surrounding bushes.

Others are simply because of their rich experience. They have encountered wilderness adventures and even more ridiculous camping environments. The most they worry about in places like swamps is the problem of bugs.

Perhaps the quiet swamp also completely fell asleep. In the first half of the night, Lin Tianci and Kegel didn't find any threats trying to get closer. It wasn't until Mistrow woke up and woke up Leticia to change shifts that there was finally a slightly bigger movement .

Lin Tianci didn't need to sleep, but he needed to practice every day, so he didn't refuse to change shifts, returned to his bedroll and sat cross-legged, closing his eyes.

If it is not really lack of time, it is best for monks not to give up daily practice, otherwise the speed of regression will be so fast that it will surprise you.

Considering that it was not safe in the swamp, Lin Tianci did not use the spirit turtle refining method, but used dragon balls to gather spiritual energy, and refined it through the magic spell that had reached the eighth level.

Having said that, even if the Divine Talisman has been completed, the refining speed is still desperately slow. The only advantage is that the advantage of a stable state after the completion is even more exaggerated.

Lin Tianci also planned to be stable first, and then use the spirit tortoise refining method to improve his cultivation in one go after finding a safer place. He is planning to spend a few days with the spirit tortoise refining method to leave the Jiuzhuan Baihua Extending Life Pill All the medicinal powers are refined to rapidly increase the cultivation base.

Of course, doing so will definitely lead to instability in the realm, but he still has a Consolidation Pill in his pocket, which is assisted by pills. Brother Lin, who has completed the tribulation and reached the seventh rank of the human rank, will go directly to a small realm, and then work harder. If everything goes well, he will be able to reach the sixth rank of the human rank within four or five months.

Even for the little monks who are in the stage of rising strength, this speed is considered cheating.
