The Troublesome Hero Among the Heroes

When Charles and Hongye came to the hotel to report in the morning of the second day, they found that it was almost a battlefield.

A space was cleared on the parking lot behind the hotel, with a huge pot in the middle. This pot put Charles in and stewed without any pressure. A cheerful flame was beating on the wood under the pot, and white steam was continuously emerging from the pot.

Five long tables are placed around the pot like petals, and on the side of the table are baskets and wooden barrels filled with various medicine ingredients. Each table is labeled with a number from 1 to 5, and cloth strips of different colors are tied to the corresponding baskets and wooden barrels.

On the side of a well not far away, a few barrels and people were waiting there.

Chef Tonio, Veterinarian Phil, and many caravan people cut the medicine ingredient at the long table, and then put the chopped medicine ingredient into the corresponding baskets and wooden barrels for use .

At this time, Halkara was wearing a blue long-sleeved overalls, surrounded by a white apron, and her waist-length golden hair was tied up behind her head.

"Is the No.1 table red ready?" Halkara doesn't think other people can fully understand the names of the medicine ingredient. If anyone makes a mistake about the type of medicine ingredient, then it will be major The event is over, so she thought of this way to direct people to feed.

"Ready!" Tonio replied loudly.

"The second table is red?"

"Ready!"

After confirming that all medicine ingredients are ready, Harkala waved , "Red one, come on!"

Kean next to the giant pot immediately cast a spell, using a gust of wind to blow away the flames on the side of the pot, and then Tonio rushed up with the basket, and took the medicine ingredient inside. Pour into the pot.

Halkara, standing in the downwind position, after smelling the medicine ingredient wafting out of the pot, ordered Phil at the second table to pour the first basket in, followed by the third table and Table number four.

Halkara at this time is like a general, directing everyone to pour various medicine ingredients and water into the pot at different times.

Having been busy for almost an hour, after a few people added a few buckets of water in, Horatio put a huge wooden board that could be used as a table on the pot, and then pulled out a lot of the bottom of the pot. The firewood went out.

At this time, Halkara announced: "Everyone rests for an hour, and the filling group is ready."

This pot of medicine consumes about one third medicine ingredient. Halkara took advantage of this time to check the medicine ingredient sequence of the next second pot of medicine.

Time is up, the flame under the pot is extinguished.

Someone put a small table next to the pot and stood up, lifted the lid and scooped out the steaming potion into a clean wooden bucket.

Then someone took away the wooden barrel full of potion, and poured the potion into ceramic vials the size of a thumb on another long table.

Charles helped to plug the waxed cork on the bottle mouth, and finally the person boiling the wax would seal the cork with molten wax.

In the following days, Charles, like everyone else in the caravan, will drink a bottle of this stuff every half a month.

Looking at the green potion, Charles knew that this was his fate.

The last medicine dregs were taken out and piled aside to let them cool, because these medicine dregs were about to become feed for the horses.

After that, Halkara began to direct everyone to make a second pot of potion.

From this day on, the people in the caravan began to do their own work.

Aubrey sold the wan horse that was no longer suitable for pulling a cart, and then bought a new wan horse with Phil.

A kind of wan horse called Parma produced on the prairie is the strongest wan horse on the continent, and the heaviest one can reach one ton. They have strong endurance, are not picky eaters, and are not easy to get sick. They are the best horses for private teams.

Although the lesser dragon, which is commonly used by the army, has a high battle strength, its survivability on the battlefield is much higher than that of horses. But they are too difficult to serve and not easy to replenish. The most important thing is that they eat too much. Under the same conditions, the amount of feed consumed per 100 kilometers is much higher than that of horses. So they can only be used by the army, and caravans just wait to be eaten up when they are used.

Elizabeth is responsible for the sales and purchase of caravan goods. She directly negotiated with the Boss in Chamber of Commerce, and quickly settled the transaction between the goods to be sold and the goods to be purchased. The empty part of the truck was also filled with goods from a few short craftsmen. Because the next stop is a place with a strong military atmosphere, those weapons and armors can't be sold.

After Phil bought the horses, he helped the two guards choose new horses, and then he bought concentrated fodder around the city.

Anthony took Charles to purchase food in the city as well. This time with the help of Hongye, and Charles has his own aura of face here, they only took one day to bypass the middlemen in the city and arrive later. The necessary jerky and other foods were bought in the nearby village. Since oats are scarce here, corn is purchased as a substitute.

Other members also do some private work in their free time. They shop for some interesting goods in the market and put them in their luggage, and then sell them when they go to other places.

Charles originally planned to sell the necklace made of the wolf's magic core, but now it has been hung around Hongye's neck.

And Cromwell, who claimed to be a wandering bard, said "I'm going to gather the wind" after entering the city and then disappeared.

Then every night in the tavern, everyone can meet him playing the lioness to show off his voice.

He is not an employee of the caravan, but a passenger who travels with the caravan after paying for a ticket.

It is very dangerous to travel long distances these years, and there are endless devil beasts and gangsters along the way. Most people who travel alone will choose to let the large caravans on the way send themselves to their destinations, and the caravans will ask people to guarantee the passengers, otherwise who knows if you are the spies of the robbers.

Some adventurers will also buy tickets to follow the caravan. If they encounter danger on the way and need them to act, the caravan will free the ticket and pay.

So there are two buses in this caravan for these people.

Sometimes small caravans will seek shelter from large caravans on some dangerous roads, and at the same time the two sides will exchange some commercial information.

Because of Elizabeth's guarantee, Cromwell sometimes helps the caravan to do some things, so he is quite popular in the caravan.

For example, last night, a young green-skinned woman who was conquered by Cromwell’s singing in a tavern chased Cromwell to the hotel, and then the members of the caravan were very considerate Remwell's room number told her.

In the end, Cromwell slipped away from the third floor in a disheveled fashion.

The day of the caravan's departure is coming soon. On the afternoon before leaving, Hongye rode a borrowed horse and took Charles to the grassland to the north.

Then stabbed it...

Oh, it wasn’t Charles that stabbed, of course.

The sky is blue, the wild is vast, and the wind blows the grass and sees the slime.

Hongye stabbed the nearby slime to death.

There are many small rivers and streams in the maple forest that flow from south to north onto the grassland.

More than three hundred years ago, the beastmen were still pure nomads. After one year of drought, a large number of victims were close to the maple forest.

At this time, Fillip, a priest of the Harvest Temple, and two sisters came here.

In the next five years, he taught beastmen who have been grazing for generations to cultivate wasteland on the edge of the maple forest, plant pastures and drought-tolerant grains in rotation, cultivate wild vegetables on the grassland, and at the same time teach So everyone raises chickens in the pasture and uses farm manure to improve the fertility of the land.

He also took everyone to dig earth and ram walls to resist the devil beast on the grassland, turning the earth pit into a pond to store rainwater in summer, snowmelt in spring, and river water flowing out of the maple forest.

At the same time, he made the best plow so far with the craftsmen here, and later lit the parchment technique with the beastmen.

Five years later, when Great Sage, who was canonized by the Harvest Temple, and two sisters left, the beastmen here stepped into the semi-nomadic and semi-agricultural era with one toe. In the following time, the model of Corn City and its surrounding farms was promoted to the north of Maple Forest. One by one tribes began to establish settlements in the north of Maple Forest, and then built a road that traverses east and west according to the plan left by Great Sage.

In the north of Corn City, there is a big lake that was left behind when the Corn City was built and the walls were taken to build houses. I don't know since when, the small river flowing out of the maple forest brought a lot of edible fishes, and then these fishes lived in this lake which was called the "North Lake" by the locals.

Farewell is imminent, Hongye didn't say anything different from Charles, but brought him here to eat grilled fish.

ˇˇˇˇˇˇˇˇˇˇˇ﹌ᢆ﹌ˇ﹌ᢆ﹌ˇ﹌ᢆ﹌ˇ Together with Charles and Charles

Standing on the grass by the lake. Hongye sprinkled a handful of corn on the lake, attracting a group of fish to eat. Then Charles threw the largest Fireball he could throw now, and after a "boom", several fish were blown up and turned over.

Fishing is not forbidden in this place, which is great.

In this world, spices are also luxury items. Almost all tropical spices are monopolized by the elves in the south, and sometimes there is nowhere to buy them if there is money.

Fortunately, there are many plants such as wild onions and thyme in the area. At noon, the red leaves went to the south maple forest and picked a lot of fresh maple leaves. So after the two opened the fish, they stuffed some wild onions in the belly of the fish, then smeared it with a little salt, then wrapped it with maple leaves, covered it with a layer of mud, and finally threw it into the fire.

There is a huge salt lake in the north of the prairie, and there is no shortage of salt on the prairie.

At this time, the sun is setting to the west, and the flaming sunset slowly climbs up to the sky.

The two sitting side by side by the fire, Hongye once again told Charles about things to pay attention to when doing outdoor activities. Although she herself knows, these experiences on the prairie may not be applicable in the south.

When the two of them finished eating the grilled fish, the sun was already down and the sky was completely dark.

Not long after, two green spots appeared in the grass.

Then these light spots grew more and more, and eventually surrounded the two of them.
