It wasn't until he ran about three kilometers away from Salwei's companions that Zhang Tie realized why he just felt something was wrong with those guys. If you saw a bunch of goldfish swimming in a neat formation in the fish tank, you would also feel something was wrong.
If Prospector is compared to a goldfish, compared with the Prospector that Zhang Tie has encountered, those guys feel too disciplined and team-minded. All Prospector are all loose guys. Of course Prospector also has a team. Sometimes many Prospector who don't know each other will even join together for the same interests, but if you put If a team of Prospector and people like Salwei are brought together, the differences between the two sides will be immediately apparent. No matter how many Prospector are gathered together, they are just a pile of sand., and those Salwei people gave Zhang Tie the feeling that they were a brick, a team of goldfish swimming in a line, and this was what made Zhang Tie feel something was wrong.
There was something wrong with those people, but Zhang Tie didn't think much about it, and he didn't have such strong curiosity to find out some secrets. Zhang Tie felt that everyone had their own secrets, and as long as it had nothing to do with him, why should he care about it? There are so many people, and the identities of those people are insignificant to Zhang Tie. What really makes Zhengtie care about and brood in his heart is the stabbing he made when he just walked into White Birch Forest and met the guy named Miller.
If my reaction was just a little slower...
If Salwei didn't scream out for a while...
If the guy hiding behind the bushes also shoots himself an arrow when Miller attacks him...
So...
myself at this moment!
Probably dead!
This is the most unacceptable thing for Zhang Tie. What Zhang Tie cannot accept is that his current life is actually based on so many ifs. If there are no such "ifs" at some point in the future, will he be killed by someone inexplicably? Then will he become a corpse like this, and will he let his parents down again?
After the incident between Hark and Sneider, the fear of death once again firmly grasped Zhang Tie's heart. What is death? Is it boundless darkness? Whenever he thinks about it, Zhang Tie can't help but feel a feeling of fear in his heart.
Does your destiny have to be controlled by so many what-ifs related to others?
No! Zhang Tie, who looked calm on the outside, was running. He let out a tearful shout in his heart, except for myself, my destiny, my life and death cannot be decided by anyone. Anyone! If only the truly strong in this world can decide their own destiny, then I will be that kind of strong. I will become stronger, stronger, stronger!
The misunderstanding that just happened in White Birch Forest may not be a big deal to Salwei, Miller and others. After all, Zhang Tie finally left the White Birch Forest well, but Salwei and others did not know. Yes. Just because of such a "little thing" in their eyes, the idea in Zhang Tie's heart that he wanted to become a truly strong man and truly have the ability to completely control his own destiny, life and death, was completely ignited. At this moment, the heart of the fifteen-year-old boy finally woke up and began to beat strongly in the direction he identified.
Only by becoming strong can parents live a comfortable life.
Only by becoming a strong man can you make the woman you like unable to live without you.
Only by becoming strong can you control your own destiny and not be killed by others casually like a dog.
This is Zhang Tie's ideal of becoming stronger. It is not earth-shattering, not great, and even a little selfish. But this is what Zhang Tie thinks, and it is these selfish thoughts that make Zhang Tie's heart completely surge, and he feels that his whole body is beginning to be filled with the power to move forward...
Zhang Tie's running pace suddenly accelerated!
There was a distance of four or five kilometers from that White Birch Forest to the foothold he found. After Zhang Tie started running, it only took him more than ten minutes to reach this distance.
Zhang Tie didn't expect to meet an acquaintance again at this stop. When Zhang Tie came to the cave, the people in the cave and him were stunned.
"Why is it you?" Both of them shouted, and then they both laughed.
The person in the cave was Bruce. This time, it was the same as the first time they met, except that the two exchanged roles. Bruce was lighting a fire in the cave with some firewood that Zhang Tie found casually. A fragrant rabbit was roasting on the fire, but Zhang Tie rushed in from the outside with a roar.
"Is this your chosen destination?" Bruce asked Zhang Tie.
"Of course!" Zhang Tie had already put down the burden, "Otherwise why do you think there would be ready firewood in the cave!"
"It's very bold to choose the place to stay here. This place is very close to Crescent Prairie..." Bruce said with some admiration, "I didn't choose the place to stay so close to you when I first came here!"
"Crescent Prairie, I just came back from the edge of the grassland!" Zhang Tie unceremoniously sat next to Bruce, sniffing hard and smelling the aroma of roasted rabbit. I didn't expect this guy Bruce to have such a skill.
"What's going on?" Bruce asked curiously, and then he noticed the huge animal trap Zhang Tie was carrying on his luggage. Bruce stood up directly from the fire, walked over, picked up the animal trap, put it in his hand and looked at it carefully, "There seems to be blood stains. How did you get such a thing?"
Then Zhang Tie told the story of how he met the unlucky guy Salwei at noon. Of course, Zhang Tie just told a general process - he was about to come here at noon when he met a Prospector who was caught in a beast trap on the road., then he sent that Prospector to join his friends, and then came back. The basic situation was like this. As for other things, he omitted them. Zhang Tie felt that there was no need to let Bruce share his troubles and mental journey.
Bruce listened with great interest.
The roasted rabbit was almost cooked. The rabbit was very fat and big enough for two people to eat. The two of them were not polite. They each took out their daggers to cut the rabbit meat and started eating. While eating, they chatted about the past few days. In the mouth of Bruce, Zhang Tie finally confirmed his previous guess, Gelis advanced to the third level Battle Soldier, becoming the veritable number one among all animals, with unlimited glory in Wild Wolf Castle.
This news did not surprise Zhang Tie. When Bruce said that Gelis was the only trial student among all the trial students to reach the third level, Zhang Tie himself added in a mocking tone in his heart - as long as tomorrow comes, he will not be the same!
Because tomorrow is the day when another Flawless Fruit on Little Tree will mature.
"What about you, are your tools ready?" The last time I met Bruce, Bruce thought of Wild Wolf Castle preparing something to pick Gooseneck Grass, Gold Wolf Bruce couldn't even think about it, because what others wanted was the captured Gold Wolf. For an archer and a lone traveler, it may not be too difficult to kill a Gold Wolf. But it is really difficult to capture a Gold Wolf alive and then take that Gold Wolf to a Wild Wolf Castle thirty miles away. So the target of Bruce is Gooseneck Grass. This thing is also very valuable.
To pick Gooseneck Grass, the most basic equipment is to have a storage box or a special herb box, because Gooseneck Grass is very delicate, and the grass neck and roots of the grass are like garlic seedlings, very brittle, and may be broken or damaged if you are not careful. Once Gooseneck Grass is broken or damaged, its efficacy will be greatly reduced, and the price will not be high, so this thing cannot be carried in your luggage. To pick this kind of thing, you must dig it out from the soil with the root. From the root to the neck, the better preserved Gooseneck Grass is, the more valuable it is.
Zhang Tie did not see anything containing Gooseneck Grass on Bruce's body or in the cave.
"I'm looking for someone to make a medicine box for Gooseneck Grass, and I want to thank you. When I went to Iron Smelting Workshop to find someone to make a medicine hoe, those guys heard that I was introduced by you, and they didn't want anything from me!" A smile appeared on Bruce's face. No matter who he was, no one would feel uncomfortable with the feeling of being cared for by friends wherever he went. Especially for an alternative otaku like Bruce, this was probably his first time experiencing the feeling of being cared for by someone.
"That's just a small thing. Those guys at Iron Smelting Workshop are all very easy to get along with. If you feel embarrassed, one day you hunt extra wild wolves and you ask someone to bring one for you to eat for those guys. Those guys will definitely treat you as a brother..."
"Okay, I remember it!" Bruce nodded seriously.
"Then why did you come back before your things were ready..." After asking this question, Zhang Tie felt that Bruce was looking at him a little strangely, and Zhang Tie touched his face, "Why, is my question strange?"
"Have you really never heard of it?" Bruce asked strangely.
"Have you heard anything?"
"Wolf Clan Carnival Day!"
"What Wolf Clan Carnival Day?" Zhang Tie really feels like a country idiot.
"The twin moons in the sky control the estrus period of the wolf clan. Every time the two moons in the sky become full moons, it is the beginning of the wolf clan's estrus period. The wolf clan's estrus period lasts for a month, three times a year. Every time this night comes, a large number of wolves will gather together and roar at the moon like a ceremony, so this day is called Wolf Clan Carnival Day!"
Bruce didn't notice that when he said this, Zhang Tie's eyes suddenly lit up.
"Today is the double full moon?"
"Yeah!"
"Then there are not many wolves showing up!"
"Many, I heard that some people have seen the scene of thousands of wild wolves howling at the moon in the depths of the grassland. However, we are certainly not strong enough to go deep into the grassland. Last time I was wandering here, I found a place. That place is relatively safe. Many wild wolves often like to gather there at night. If nothing goes wrong, you should be able to enjoy the sight of a small group of wolves howling at the moon there today!" Bruce said leisurely with a look of fascination.
Zhang Tie's eyes were no longer bright at this time, but extremely bright, as if two lanterns were lit in his eyes.
"Bruce..."
"Yeah!" I felt that Zhang Tie's voice was a little special. Bruce, who was about to tear off a rabbit leg, turned his head and saw Zhang Tie looking at him with burning eyes. Bruce was startled by Zhang Tie's eyes.
"Has anyone ever said you are cute?" When Zhang Tie said this, the fire crackled.
Bruce shook his hand and almost dropped the rabbit leg he was holding on the ground.
"No!" Bruce swallowed and said with some difficulty. Then he subconsciously sat a little further away from Zhang Tie, and his look at Zhang Tie suddenly became strange. Doesn't this guy have some strange hobbies related to soap?
In the cave with only two people, Bruce suddenly felt a little hairy!
"You are very cute!" Zhang Tie said seriously.
In a cave with only two people, looking at Zhang Tie with glowing eyes, Bruce's face suddenly turned pale, and the rabbit leg in his hand fell to the ground... To be continued, please search, the novel is better and updated faster!
