Chapter 31: Bacon Soup Heading to the Troll's Territory
Once you enter the village
What comes into view gives people a sense of desolation.
The entire village is not very large, and all the houses in the village can be seen clearly at a glance. There are only about 30 houses in total.
There was a small part of the ground that was covered with gravel and was relatively clean, but most of it was overgrown with weeds.
Judging from the different heights of the weeds in different areas, someone must be cleaning them up from time to time.
All the houses are low-rise buildings with one story. Some of the better ones can be seen to be built with stone bricks, but judging from the gray-white walls, these better houses are also quite old.
"Our village is relatively small, but there are several vacant houses. If you don't mind, you can rest in the house in front."
The village chief's thick gray-brown beard on both sides of his cheeks and chin trembled as he spoke.
"Thank you for your help, village chief." Tang Zheng took a look at the house the village chief pointed to, then spoke with gratitude.
"Haha, it's just some small things. We haven't had any guests in our village for a long time." The village chief chuckled gently.
While the two were talking.
Many curious eyes and heads looked out from the doors and windows of the surrounding villagers' houses.
The entire Kahn Village is not very big, so if there is any movement, it will naturally be known to everyone soon.
Tang Zheng simply thanked him and entered the vacant house in the village under the gaze of many people.
Kahn Village is actually very ordinary, and there is nothing worthy of Tang Zheng's attention.
If you have to say it.
There was only the girl named An Li.
She is a girl who uses an ordinary magic item, the "Goblin General's Horn", to blow out an army.
Tang Zheng highly doubted whether the other party had any innate abilities like "extremely high intimacy with goblins".
But at the moment, the other party is just an ordinary girl.
Crunch!
When I pushed open the wooden door, an old sound was heard at the connection with the door frame.
Tang Zheng walked into the idle house. It was very empty inside, with only a wooden bed and a thin layer of dust on the ground.
There were still some broken spider webs on the beams above my head and at the four corners of the roof.
Around the corners where the wooden boards meet the ground, the color is slightly darker, probably caused by moisture.
Tang Zheng didn't expect to have good accommodation in such a poor border village. The reason why he came to Kahn Village was because it was the closest village to Tob Forest.
And because it belongs to the territory of the wise forest king Hamsuke, it is very safe.
It takes about a day to travel from Ye-Rantel to Carne Village, and at least two days to go back and forth.
Although Tang Zheng has replenished his supplies, he still needs to be prepared for unexpected emergencies and needs to exit the forest early.
Or a situation where materials are consumed too much or are insufficient.
At this time, there naturally needs to be a place specifically for rest.
The village of Carne is perfect for this.
"I should have prepared a magic scroll of 'cleaning' earlier." Tang Zheng looked at the dust in the room and the spider webs on the beams and shook his head slightly.
really.
Even though I learned a lot from the Rock team about the preparations that adventurers make when they go out, there are still things that are overlooked.
Tang Zheng could only clean the room himself and clear out a clean area.
Then he took out a basketball-sized ceramic jar from the toolbox and placed it on the ground. Then he took out a piece of bacon, broke it into small pieces of different sizes and put them in the jar, and then poured the water in the water bag into it.
"Heat it up."
Tang Zheng pointed a finger at the ceramic jar.
In just less than half a minute, the water in the ceramic pot began to boil and gradually turned into a pot of broth, exuding the aroma of meat.
"Putting aside other things, this magic is at least quite convenient for heating food." Tang Zheng said as he smelled the salty fragrance in the air, a faint smile on his face.
A minute passed in the blink of an eye and the simple broth was ready.
Tang Zheng took out the bowl and scooped himself a spoonful, then picked up the black bread and started eating.
Even after cooking, the bacon still has a strong salty taste, but it is not bad when paired with dry and hard black bread.
Bacon is one of the foods that adventurers often have on hand when they are outdoors. It is almost impossible to eat directly because it is pickled so salty.
It is often used to make broth or as a supplementary ingredient to replace salt. For adventurers who are manual workers, it is an important way to replenish salt.
The aroma of broth, with a hint of saltiness, drifted out through the window.
This immediately caused a small commotion in Kahn Village.
The main source of income for Kahn Village is the cultivation of crops, mainly wheat, and the collection of some medicinal herbs at the edge of the forest.
Hunting wild animals?
This is quite dangerous for the villagers who are only level 1 on average.
Tang Zheng remembered that there should be a hunter in Kahn Village with the basic profession of "Guerrilla Soldier", but his level was at most level 2.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Take a look at the properties panel.
Genius 1LV+ Sword Master 6LV=Comprehensive Level 7LV. The residual experience from killing the two Eight Fingers members before, plus the goblins and small monsters killed along the way, allowed Tang Zheng to reach another level.
In terms of progress, it is not too slow.
Tang Zheng felt that it would not take a few days to upgrade the intermediate profession "Sword Master" to the maximum level, and then the main task would be to improve the level of "Genius".
Shalltia and Zesijuemei's "Priest" professions are both LV10.
Although Tang Zheng was not sure whether this was the "Priest" level requirement for "Valkyrie", it was always right to upgrade to this level and maintain consistency.
The next day, June 2nd.
As soon as daybreak.
Tang Zheng packed up and left Kahn Village.
Before leaving, he went to the village chief and paid 5 copper coins for the camping fee.
The people of Kahn Village are quite simple and honest. The village chief had no intention of accepting it, but Tang Zheng forced it into his hands.
He will most likely have to return to Kahn Village later to increase his favorability and some interpersonal communication skills in advance.
He could still take out five copper coins.
…………
The air was filled with the unique jungle smell of branches, leaves, soil and decay, pouring out from the Tob Forest.
Rustle——
Tang Zheng was stepping on thick branches and moss. Every step he took made a rustling sound like the branches and leaves colliding and being crushed.
From deep in the jungle, the calls of various animals and birds can be heard from time to time.
Tang Zheng held the iron sword in his hand and moved along the outer area towards the east of the Tob Forest.
Among the three forest rulers, the strongest and most difficult to deal with is the Wise King of the Forest, Hamsuke. With Tang Zheng's strength, he can't even escape if he encounters him.
Don't think he's cute in the anime, that's because he's from Bone King's perspective. In fact, the Wise King of the Forest, Hamsuke, is a pretty scary monster!
The other two forest rulers.
Naga, the Demonic Serpent of the West, is very intelligent and is also a magic chanter, making him very dangerous.
The only other ogre, although equally powerful, had a low IQ and was a stubborn person! Most importantly, he was a warrior, and apart from his super recovery ability and physical attack, he had no other means of attack.
In the event of an unexpected encounter, the chance of escaping if you encounter a ogre is obviously much higher than if you encounter Naga, the Demonic Serpent of the West, or Hamsuke, the Wise King of the Forest.
Lush green, towering trees are all around, and the sunlight shines through layer after layer of barriers, through the dense treetops, and falls on the ground in patches.
