He put the harness on the horse again, and the cart loaded with belongings had been replaced by a covered carriage at some chambers of commerce in Shanling City. It's a lot bigger and heavier, but it also has an extra place to shelter from the wind and rain.
The original car was intended to be towed by a mule, so the load was limited. But some kind people contributed five horses before, and the animal power was greatly improved, so naturally they dared to use better vehicles. As long as the terrain is not too strange, it is now very luxurious to use a four-horse trailer.
Because of this, apart from all the belongings on the carriage, Lin, who was not in very good health, finally had a place where he could stretch out and lie down straight.
While moving things, there was another episode, naturally it was the container that no one was qualified to touch.
When everything was almost packed, the two girls looked at the container that their sister had always kept with them, and for a moment they didn't know what to do with it. Fen noticed the embarrassment of the two girls, so he took a standard-cut magic stone, inserted it into a groove in the base, and opened a certain mechanism.
I saw that the container changed its shape again. The most important thing was that some of the edges and protrusions on the surface became smoother, and the magic patterns and runes were hidden. At the same time, an irregular orange patch appeared in an inconspicuous place on one of the walls. If you don't know, you might think it is a piece of dirt.
"Girl, take a look." Fen said. The two girls didn't doubt that he was there, so they just reached out and took it. But Kaya was relatively close, so she picked up the changed container. And then... nothing happened.
After checking it closer, Fen said to the two girls: "When you see the eggshell look like this in the future, and here──" pointing to the orange spot, "──when it doesn't appear dark red or black, you guys will You can take it. Don’t touch it at other times. You will die and I won’t be able to save you in time.”
"Okay, sister." Halumi replied, and Kaya nodded. The two of them continued to move the 'eggshells' and other items to be taken away to the carriage.
The name 'eggshell' came from someone who saw the shape of the container in the morning and casually said: "Oh, it looks like an egg inside an alien." This inexplicable statement was of course people asked for the reason. Lin also did not shy away from mentioning the alien egg shape in the movie he had seen. Although he didn't understand what an alien was or what a movie was, 'eggshell' still became Fin's name for the container.
As for the large box of maps, Kaya and Halumi worked all night long to save all the information in the form of pictures into Shou Coffin, a portable computer that is a version of the Lost World. After all, running around with that big box of maps, if the lords from other places saw it, he would become a spy even if he was not a spy.
So after recording it, the box of maps was entrusted to the half-elf shopkeeper of the Pigeon Song Inn and returned to the people of the Basque Country branch.
The carriage leaving Shanling City was a little lonely. No one came to see him off. Fortunately, no one sent him off to school with rotten tomatoes and rotten eggs. However, this may also be because the person sitting in the driver's seat was the one who didn't need to eat or sleep. Lich.
The two girls stayed up all night helping to make eggshells the previous day; they stayed up all night yesterday to sort out today's travel arrangements and record all the map information. Before setting off today, I couldn't hold on any longer and dozed off hard.
As for a useless man, he is a sick man. Just standing up straight, his head felt like it had been cut open. It hurt so much that he couldn't speak. Even if he wanted to scream, he didn't have the strength. Vaguely, I felt that there was something terrible that I had forgotten. That feeling of wanting to get to the bottom of it, but on the one hand being afraid of actually recalling it, is really weird. There is no need to talk about what you want to do to help other people.
So Fen simply drove the two girls back to the caravan to sleep, and the man who couldn't do anything naturally lay in the caravan and became the pillow of the two girls. Don't think that this is some nice thing about hugging each other. The two yellow-haired girls were directly pillowing on a certain person's belly, which was very uncomfortable. However, this discomfort could divert the attention of the headache a little, so Lin let it go.
The extra mule and fifth horse were tied behind the cart with reins. The group was not very fast, and the most important thing was that Fen did not deliberately control the direction, but just let the horses move forward. Of course, she didn't know where she would lead if she followed this road that was not the one she came on.
By the time the two girls woke up from hunger, their colors were already dark. The horses in the caravan have also been untied and preparations are being made for setting up camp. The horses and mules that had been untied were looking for weeds nearby to chew.
They don't dare to go far, or even if they go far, they will definitely come back. They don't dare to just leave and return to a place they are familiar with. After all, the orders given by the lich with a voice containing power are stronger than any instinct.
As for the lack of specialized pasture, this is not a problem for herbivorous animals. In this vibrant magical world, not only animals are generally superior to the same type of earthly creatures - because there is no DNA detection technology, it is impossible to determine whether they are the same species - but even plants have the same trend.
In terms of nutritional content and satiety, even Lin, a non-nutrition professional, can feel that the food in Midi is much better than what is produced on Earth. The simplest proof is that this world can easily make people strong or fat.
Of course, if there are specially raised concentrates, the horse's performance in all aspects can be improved to a higher level. But even if there isn't, even the weeds on the roadside are enough to keep the horses at a normal level without deteriorating too much.
When the girls woke up, they found that their original pillows had been replaced by cloth balls, and their teacher also left the caravan and sat by the bonfire. Lin Zheng was instructing the lich on how to roast a wild boar. He couldn't do it, but luckily Fen didn't object to doing it. But if a woman who has never cooked before cooks a delicious dish... someone doesn't want to divert the focus of her headache with a stomachache.
Barbecued meat is the simplest type of cuisine, as long as it is delicious or not.
Nothing more than bleeding, skinning, eviscerating, and then not undercooking or burning the meat.
But even for such a few simple steps, without Lin watching, he felt frightened just watching Fen perform.
After struggling for a long time, I finally made no big mistake and roasted a wild boar. The aroma was like an alarm clock to wake up, causing the two sleeping girls to get out of the caravan.
"Come and try it, I made it." Fen proudly promoted his results. Of course, she had already tried it before, and it wasn't too bad, it was even quite delicious.
Although this lich's body does not require food, all of its senses still imitate human senses, including, of course, taste. So she will find it delicious. Apart from some self-comfort factors, it actually tastes quite good. At least it's not like in the two-dimensional works that someone has seen, where the heroine is best at cooking murderous dishes, and she never tastes them first.
Who is cooking without taking a few bites first? Unless you had bad intentions from the beginning...
Seeing how everyone was devouring food - they all slept a whole day, and of course they were also hungry -, Fen felt a little proud. She had forgotten the last time she cooked. She wasn't even sure whether it had been done or not.
The water in the water bladder was almost drunk by the person who just woke up. The two girls, who were a little full, went to the nearby stream to get water. On the way here, Fen saw a clear stream not far from the camp. The magic of the lost land has not yet been able to produce the water or food needed by the human body. Unless it is connected to the water elemental realm, water is transferred to another world at a high cost.
Of course, a man who was sick continued to act useless. But Fin had been putting up with the problem for a long time, and he didn't want to put it up any longer. She looked at someone seriously and asked, "How much do you remember about what happened yesterday morning?"
Lin felt a little confused about such a question. Wasn’t it all gone when I woke up yesterday? What else can be added today?
However, he still thought about it seriously, and after making sure that his memory was neither too much nor too little, he said, "It's what I told you yesterday. What do you want to know?"
"Well, I want to know what you saw and how you saw it." Fen asked her question directly.
He recalled what he saw before he lost his memory after entering the fog erosion area. "It's like several painters from different schools and different painting styles painted the same scene and then spliced all the paintings together. And there are a lot of weird things, like those that exist in reality, But it’s paradoxical. As for how I saw it.”
Lin tilted his head and thought for a while, but unfortunately he was interrupted by a headache. He bared his teeth and spoke, unable to speak even a single word.
Fen asked relentlessly, but also gave a hint: "You only gained that ability after entering the dream yesterday. What did you do in the dream?"
After getting the hint, someone with a headache couldn't bear to think about it himself, so he asked faster. So I said, "I'll go ask." Then I fell into the dreamland.
It's just that entering a dream in such a physical condition is not very smooth. The originally clear world was flashed by inexplicable noise from time to time. Sometimes it's like a dream world flashes, sometimes it's like seeing another scenery.
Standing next to the two-story magic tower were of course the two avatars of himself. The fat one showed a welcoming smile, but the short one had an expression that was so arrogant that no one would even bother to talk to him. Someone whose head is hurting suddenly wants to fight with him for no reason and beat these two guys to the ground...
