Chapter 172: Passerby in the Western Fantasy Adventure
Ivis walked through the frosted forest. The forest had expanded from the original single sea buckthorn tree to six or seven tree species, including tall poplars, short saxaul trees, and date trees that bore sweet fruits... These trees were divided into different areas, and even in the bitter winter they grew towards the sun, thriving with vigorous vitality.
Just like the girl he likes, she can adapt to any situation, never complain, and try her best to improve the bad external environment.
Thinking of this, the cold aura around him melted away a little. Walking through the path in the scattered light between the leaves, Ivis pushed open the gate. Cathy was sweating profusely as she put away her stiletto.
"Ivis, you're back! The meal is ready, wash your hands and go eat."
Hogg nodded to Ivis. Because of the last accident, there was always someone by Cathy's side.
"Okay." Ivis followed her into the house.
Coincidentally, Abner was just coming down from the stairs. Looking at the two people walking together, he first smiled meaningfully, and the image of his lovely great-grandson automatically played in his mind. Then he raised the first edition of the "Moonlight Water" treasure in his hand as a tribute.
"Little Cathy, look at how you've been exposed to the sun lately. Your face is a little chapped. Look, this is a magic potion I specially developed for skin care. I guarantee that after you use it, your face will be as smooth and moisturized as a peeled ice fruit!"
"Really?" Cathy's eyes were filled with uncontrollable surprise. No woman could resist the temptation of skin care products. Her mouth was grinning so hard that you could see her back teeth.
"Thank you, teacher. You are the best and most caring teacher in the world..." Her little mouth was as sweet as honey, coaxing Abner's head into a daze. Then she ran into the room in a flash, and her joyful voice came from behind the door.
"In order to live up to the teacher's kindness, I will try it now!"
Ivis was stunned. He looked at the glass bottle in Abner's hand with suspicion. He really didn't understand how this inconspicuous little thing could make the usually stable girl become such a different person.
Abner shook the transparent liquid in the bottle and said meaningfully: "As the saying goes, to win a man's heart you must first win his stomach, and to win a lady's favor you must first win her happiness."
"And this, this is the key to winning the hearts of ladies, no matter how old they are, their pursuit of beauty is eternal."
Seeing that Ivis still had a look of doubt on his face, he snorted coldly and went to the kitchen to help serve the porridge. As for his own cub, he still had a lot of lessons to learn. He thought that he had fallen many times before he figured out the secret of pleasing his sweetheart.
The "108 Ways to Win the Hearts of Ladies" that is circulating in the market is complete nonsense, saying that one must be a gentleman, be considerate, be restrained, and not act rashly. It was because he was too gentlemanly that he was interfered with by others and his ideal girl was abducted away.
It was probably because this boy was lucky that there were few competitors in this desolate place. Otherwise, with his love for the flowers so deep in his heart but unable to express it, the flowers he had carefully tended would have been taken away with their pots long ago.
Ivis's doubts were completely dispelled by Cathy's attentive attitude at the dinner table. He glanced at the full plate of side dishes in his grandfather's bowl, then at the bland soup in his own bowl, and suddenly felt that he had grasped the key to controlling his beloved.
Later, he devoted himself to developing various skin care magic potions. In particular, every time he made his wife angry, he would rack his brains to come up with a new skin care magic potion to apologize, such as moisturizing the face, smoothing the hands, caring for the neck, and even a magic potion specifically for caring for the feet and skin...
Therefore, every time a new skin care potion came out, the upper class nobles knew that this fearful great wizard must have made his beloved wife angry again. While chatting about gossip, those ladies secretly prayed that Ivis would make his wife angry a few more times so that they would have more potions with new functions to use.
Later, inspired by Cathy, Ives' research direction was no longer limited to skin care products. Many cosmetics with magical functions were also developed, such as lip gloss that can conceal breath, pearl earrings with positioning function, and cream that can lighten facial features...
Even though Ivis was the first ice magician to reach the saint realm, people in later generations still prefer to dig up the romantic rumors between this saint and his wife. Especially when a saint developed these magic potions suitable for women because of his guilt, it simply hits the hearts of those who are full of voyeurism. Oh, this is too good to be true.
These are all later stories. Now Ivis is discussing with Abner how to deal with the affairs of the Sand Tribe.
The two men agreed that they should use force first and courtesy later. Only by showing their fists and knocking these barbarians down first could they communicate with them properly.
And those who participated in the conspiracy and harmed Cathy must be handed over to them for handling.
Ives wanted to skin him alive first and then move on.
So after the first winter snow, Abner brought Ivis to the gate of the Sand Tribe, and without saying a word, they had a fight with the leader of the Sand Tribe. After winning, the two had time to look around the tribe living deep in the cave.
The tribe is basically made up of young and strong people, with few elderly people and children. After some questioning, I learned that because of the shortage of food in winter, those disabled, sick and weak people, as well as the elderly and children are the reserve food of these young and strong people. In the past years, the Sand Tribe has survived the cold winter by relying on the disabled and the same kind.
As for the leopard hybrid that hurt Cathy, it had been killed by a monitor lizard during the winter hunt half a month ago.
The leader of the Sand Tribe was also injured in that hunt, which is why they were easily defeated by the two.
Abner looked at the group of hybrids who looked like wild beasts, and felt as if a cold wind was blowing through his heart. They ate their elders and children as if it was normal for them!
It turns out that flowers of love cannot grow on poor soil!
This group of mixed-breeds struggling for survival fell into a strange vicious circle in this chaotic land. Without anyone to teach them, they grew recklessly, eating their own kind or being eaten by their own kind. Everything happened so peacefully.
When leaving, Abner activated the long-treasured forbidden scroll to completely cover up the cave full of brutal killings.
It was too dangerous to be neighbors with such a group of uncivilized hybrids.
A thief can only be a thief for a thousand days, but you can't guard against thieves for a thousand days.
If they are even slightly careless, their treasures will be harmed.
Danger must be strangled in the cradle.
After returning, everything returned to normal.
However, in the second year, a scavenger team appeared in the extreme wilderness, specializing in picking up the abandoned hybrids.
Some of them were sent to the Wind Tribe, and some were left in the woods outside the Magic Chapter.
Gradually, the forest grew larger and larger, with more and more hybrids living in it. One day, while building a house, the hybrids accidentally dug up groundwater, and a beautiful lake appeared here.
Later, more and more people joined the tree planting campaign, and this barren land became an oasis full of vitality. The hybrids named this oasis Fairy Lake to commemorate Miss Cathy who had passed away.
Yes, when their child was five years old, Ivis took Cathy to travel around the mainland. At that time, the original book had ended for a year, and the overall situation on the mainland was relatively peaceful.
The two of them went to the northernmost ice field to visit the ice bear tribe and admired the gorgeous aurora.
Then he went east to visit the dwarf tribe, tasted the dwarf's fine wine, and asked them to help Cathy forge a long sword named "Wind Song";
They also went to take a look at the reclusive elves. Although they could not enter the interior of the Elf Forest, they played around in the outer area and made friends with the elves living in the streamer flowers. After receiving the elves' blessing, their second child was born quietly on a starry night.
In order to raise their baby, the two finally returned to the desolate land they had been away from for a long time. Their eldest son had grown from a chubby little boy into a handsome young man, and Abner had educated him very well.
Because they had been communicating through the crystal ball, the family quickly became familiar with each other after the initial unfamiliarity.
Although they had been away for ten years, they had been using bird skeletons to deliver messages. Their descendants also compiled a book "The Travels of Ivis & Cathy" based on these letters from their ancestors. Later generations intended to explore the geographical environment and cultural features of thousands of years through these magnificent and warm texts.
In this life, due to her limited talent, Cathy ultimately stopped at a high-level magician, so she left Ivis first.
After losing his wife, Ivis secluded himself for three years and eventually broke through to the Saint realm, but then he disappeared.
But in the desolate wilderness, there is a lonely old man in this beautiful place with no one around. His wife loved exploring beautiful scenery when she was alive. Now that she is gone, he will take her eyes to appreciate the customs of these forbidden areas that few people have set foot in.
