Chapter 034 Western Fantasy Town 25
Then Angelica took Xie Yunsui into Vilanste, a woodland in the third-level monster circle.
There are no towering trees here, only short trees that are so thick that it takes ten adults to hug them. The bark is dry, and the roots under the trees are so twisted that they cover the ground. You can fall twice with every step you take.
If you can walk on flat ground here, it will indeed improve your dodging ability.
Xie Yunsui asked, "Is this the place?"
Angelica put on a faint smile and said, "If you can hold on here for a week."
Xie Yunsui was puzzled. Although the ground was not flat, it was nothing as he was used to it. Even if he ran all over the place, it would only take half a day.
"A week?"
"Yes, I will ask for leave for you and Theodore."
Angelica retreated a little, leaving the root system of the outermost tree, and said with a certain gloating, "Are you ready?"
Xie Yunsui's heart skipped a beat, and he had a bad feeling.
Sure enough, the next second, Angelica Wang threw something into the woods and ran away without looking back.
Xie Yunsui: "Wait..."
"Bang!"
Before Xie Yunsui could see clearly what exploded, he was suddenly hit hard.
“Bang!”
Xie Yunsui dodged quickly, but bumped into another branch.
The trees that were originally standing quietly suddenly seemed to come alive, with their branches swinging around, and every swing was like a stick hitting you.
“Bang!”
In just a few breaths, Xie Yunsui was spanked no less than ten times, and his whole body was in pain and numbness.
Only then did Xie Yunsui recognize these big trees. These were not big trees at all, they were clearly third-level tree beasts!
The tree beast looks like a big tree, but it is actually a real animal. It just eats minerals and soil, so it is a harmless monster to adventurers.
However, this tree beast is timid by nature. Once it encounters a loud noise, it will frantically swing its branches to scare the enemy.
It's like when you go to a horror house and you lie on the ground and kick your legs randomly when you hear a sound. It's a chaotic and indiscriminate attack, for fear that something will touch your body.
Therefore, this tree beast is also called the "man-beating tree".
But Xie Yunsui had only seen the "man-hitting tree" in a book and knew that its shed bark could be used to make medicine, but he didn't know that the man-hitting tree looked like this!
There was really no preparation at all. On the contrary, because the explosion left by Angelica was so loud, all the man-killing trees living in this area woke up!
Xie Yunsui was running around in a rather awkward manner among the branches, and from time to time he missed a step on the sunken roots and almost fell unconscious.
The moment he fell, Xie Yunsui had only one thought.
"Tiantian! No video!"
-
How to survive the random attacks of the Hitman Tree for seven days?
Xie Yunsui said that first of all, you have to learn to take a beating.
After enduring the initial pain and getting used to the numbness in his body, Xie Yunsui finally had the energy to dodge the branches.
Fortunately, although the man-hitting trees hit people, their strength is so strong that it does not hurt the brain. How much killing power can a monster that does not eat meat have? It just looks ferocious.
The attacks of the Hitting Tree are random, which tests your eyesight and hearing.
To move around in the root system and find a fulcrum, one needs not only eyesight and judgment, but also agility.
I finally understand why Angelica chose this place.
Xie Yunsui became serious and took the beating in the woods as a test.
When you feel tired, just leave the woods for a while, replenish your energy, build a shed, take a nap for an hour, and you will feel refreshed again.
After a few days, Xie Yunsui was able to move freely in the woods and even had the leisure to look for the face of the tree beast. There were two black eyes hidden in the old bark. If you didn't look carefully, you would think they were just ordinary spots on the bark.
Sometimes Xie Yunsui would deliberately provoke the attacking trees, making them attack more fiercely when they were weakened.
Seven days later, Xie Yunsui packed up and went home.
Although the training was interesting, he missed Theodore.
I rushed home exhausted and saw a few villagers selling their own eggs and goat milk in a small shop.
Theodore was counting the money. As soon as he looked up, he saw Xie Yunsui. His eyes lit up, and then he quickly finished the calculation and ran over to give him a big hug.
Xie Yunsui couldn't help but smile: "I'm dirty, all dusty."
He said so, but showed no sign of hiding.
Theodore hugged him, feeling the warmth before looking Xie Yunsui up and down. Seeing that he had no external injuries, he breathed a sigh of relief: "I've been away for a long time this time."
Xie Yunsui said, "It happened suddenly. I won't do it again next time."
He didn't expect that the trip would take seven days. When he entered Villanstai, he thought it would only take half a day to get it done.
In fact, he secretly came back to see Theodore.
Let the little bee come back, and then let the little bee open the store after he enters it.
Theodore did not go home and slept in his bedroom at night.
A warm yellow night light was on at the head of the bed, illuminating Theodore's soft sleeping face.
Xie Yunsui watched by the bed for two hours, waiting for the little bee to rush back to the beating woods.
Hard-working little bee: ...
Looking at the two sticky villagers standing at the door, they didn't know whether to leave or stay, so they just sat down and looked at them.
Ah, it’s great to be young.
Xie Yunsui was awakened by the stare and thought about going to wash up.
After changing into clean clothes, Theodore was chatting with the villagers.
When they saw Xie Yunsui coming down, they asked tentatively, "Charles, do you have any lambs or calves here?"
Xie Yunsui said: "Not at the moment."
"We were afraid that raising too many would attract monsters, so we raised sheep."
"I didn't expect goat milk to be so profitable. If Warcraft doesn't come anymore, my family would like to raise some sheep or cows."
"Theodore, how's the milk going in town?"
"The milk in town is boiled and more expensive."
At the beginning, everyone was afraid of monsters invading and didn’t dare to raise more. Only three or four families wanted to give it a try.
By the time the first group of chicken farmers made money from eggs, and the sheep farmers gave birth to lambs and sold goat milk, the monsters didn't come, so more people became active.
Xie Yunsui asked, "Besides you, are there any other people who want to raise cattle and sheep?"
"Quite a few," Theodore said, "More than a dozen have inquired in the past two days."
"Okay then, I'll go buy some young cattle and sheep from the adventurers."
Theodore smiled and said, "I've already told a few familiar adventurer teams about this."
Ever since Xie Yunsui shared the small treasury with him, Theodore felt that he had a responsibility and learned to manage the store. He no longer just did whatever Xie Yunsui asked him to do.
Xie Yunsui's small treasury is just an ordinary gold coin box, which is filled with the gold coins he earned, always more or less.
Some of the deals that Theodore thought would lose money actually made a lot of money.
Theodore was also going to share his own little treasury.
He gave half of the money he earned in the past few months to Grandpa Agnes for household expenses, and put the other half in a small cloth bag and kept it in Xie Yunsui's small treasury.
However, he later discovered that Xie Yunsui would secretly put gold coins into his small cloth bag, so he took them back.
The villagers left satisfied when they learned that they would be able to buy calves and lambs soon.
As evening approached, adventurers came to buy potions and apples, and to sell the herbs and materials they had collected.
After everyone left, Xie Yunsui closed the shop and hung up a sign saying "Please knock if you have any questions."
Theodore was stopped by him and couldn't help but poke him on the back: "I want to go home."
Xie Yunsui turned around, buried her head in his shoulder, and sniffed the familiar scent of Theodore.
"Theodore, I missed you so much."
The whole person looks like a slimy monster.
Theodore wasn't someone who could be dismissed with sweet words: "Who's been gone for a week?"
"It's me." Xie Yunsui raised her eyes and asked pitifully, "Can I still get a gentle kiss from the kind little angel Theodore?"
Theodore pinched his waist and said, "No! Charles, you've made me worry for a week!"
Xie Yunsui admitted his mistake: "I'm sorry."
It always makes people feel uncomfortable when a tall person lowers his head submissively.
Theodore hummed softly: "...Since you are not injured, I forgive you."
What a cutie this is!
Xie Yunsui was moved by him and hugged him tightly, holding him in his arms.
"Stay, Theodore." Xie Yunsui whispered devilishly.
Theodore's ears were itching, and he also wanted to stay.
"If you say so..."
He spoke softly and quietly, as if he had decided that if Xie Yunsui didn't hear it, he would just pretend he had never said it.
So cute, so cute, so cute!
Xie Yunsui, who had a keen sense of five senses, couldn't help but kiss him on the face.
Theodore touched his face and said, "Just this once."
Xie Yunsui pretended not to hear, turned around and took his hand: "I'll show you something fun."
"What?" Theodore followed him.
There was an empty room on the second floor, filled with some scrapped pots and other miscellaneous items.
Xie Yunsui first asked Theodore to wait at the door. He drew a confinement formation on the ground and then poured a lot of soil into the center of the formation.
Theodore asked curiously, "What's this for? Planting trees in the room?"
"Right!" Xie Yunsui kissed him, then pulled him to the side, an arm's length away from the formation, and then released a tree.
As soon as the tree touched the soil, its roots began to move, trying to take root in the soil.
Theodore was startled: "A living tree?"
"These are the man-killing trees. I've been spending the last few days with them."
"Hit tree? Were you hit?" Theodore looked at him and seemed to want to lift up his clothes.
"No." Xie Yunsui said decisively: "They can't hit me."
Theodore's eyes were slightly questioning.
After spending a long time with Xie Yunsui, Theodore realized that he was not as calm as he seemed, and could sometimes be very childish.
When developing a new dish, if I accidentally make something terrible, I will eat the whole thing to save face.
When someone loses concentration while refining a potion and fails, he will try to be tough and say that he failed in his attempt to research a new potion.
As long as he doesn't dare to look into my eyes, it means he is guilty.
Theodore leaned closer to him: "Hmm?"
Xie Yunsui looked away and said stubbornly: "If you don't believe me, I'll show you."
Theodore has always been a good boy who respects the elderly. Because his parents and brother died in Villansted, Agnes was reluctant to let him become an adventurer again, so Theodore never entered Villansted.
While others were talking enthusiastically about the monsters they had hunted, Theodore just minded his own business and never spoke a word.
But how can young people not be curious?
Ever since Theodore let something slip once, Xie Yunsui kept it in mind. Whenever he came across something interesting or novel, he would show it to Theodore, and if it was not interesting, he would complain to him about it.
After performing a peacock-spreading (crossed out) trick in front of Theodore, he dodged without getting touched by a single leaf and used all his skills to the maximum. Seeing the amazement in his eyes as he wished, Xie Yunsui raised his chin proudly, waiting for praise.
Theodore couldn't help laughing and agreed with him: "Wow, Ciel is amazing."
Xie Yunsui's mouth curled up unconsciously: "It's just so-so."
The two looked at each other and laughed out loud.
When you are with your lover, even the most boring things become interesting.
