After dinner, everyone dispersed and went about their own business.
Although the vine tent is not soundproof, it is thick enough to protect it from wind and rain. Even in winter, it has sufficient thermal insulation effect.
Dina had nothing to do, so she came to chat with Lu Xi again and helped Lu Xi while he was working.
At the highest point of the tent, there was a hanging vine. The tip was slightly curved. It looked like a hook. There was a lamp hanging on it. It was different from the oil lamp used in Kuwa Village before. The light was as bright as the earth. The electric lamps on the market are just of lower wattage.
This is the elemental lamp sent by Xiulan. It looks similar to an ordinary oil lamp, but the overall material is more expensive. The method of use is to input a certain amount of elemental power into it.
After various complex magical reactions, the element lamp will emit bright light and last for a long period of time. During this period, it can also be closed and opened through several mechanisms. In addition, the element lamp itself has the ability to store elements. With its power function, even ordinary people can use it for a long time.
Compared with oil lamps that require frequent replenishment of lamp oil and may lose their function at any time due to lack of replenishment in the wild, one advantage of elemental lamps is that the replenishment method is easy and simple.
People who are not accompanied by an elemental warrior or an elemental mage will basically not appear alone in the wild. As long as there is a person who can induce the power of the elements, the elemental lamp will not lose its effect.
The elemental lamp is one of the elemental instruments in this other world. It is similar to the contract package and is a more commonly used type of tool.
In addition, Xiulan inadvertently showed many elemental magic weapons that were easy to use, which suddenly made Lu Xi realize that the other world was not as "backward" as she had seen in Kuwa Village before.
Other worlds also have items that are comparable to or even surpass the technology on Earth, but their use conditions are equally harsh and cannot be used by the vast majority of ordinary humans.
But normally, ordinary mercenaries do not have so many elemental magic weapons. The price is one thing, and the purchasing channels are also very important. Even if you have money but don’t have the connections, you can’t buy the elemental magic weapons at all. .
These things were not created for ordinary people from the beginning. Maybe some of them were, but those at the top of the other world disagreed, so they became no.
Lu Xi was combing the hair that was shaved from the Earth Stone Sheep at noon. It was probably a characteristic of a monster that could use elemental magic. The wool on the Earth Stone Sheep was not as dirty as on earth. There was basically no soil on it, so it was very easy to comb. It's convenient.
Dina came over to help, and Xiao Yuan and the baby dragon, who had been playing outside for a long time, also ran back. The originally spacious tent suddenly became crowded after the baby dragon squeezed in.
At first, Xiao Yuan was quite hostile to the baby dragon, because the scene when the baby dragon broke out of its shell and ran towards Lu Xi looked too much like an attack. Xiao Yuan always felt that the baby dragon was a threat, so he was always on guard against it.
But after such a day's journey, the baby dragon didn't make any noise or cause trouble, and just followed Lu Xi obediently. The baby dragon did whatever Lu Xi asked him to do. He was very obedient, and Xiao Yuan gradually relaxed his vigilance. .
Especially when we just had dinner, Xiao Yuan took the opportunity to go down to the water to take a bath because he stayed by the creek. The baby dragon also followed him, and the two of them caught several fish together.
It's just that the fish in the creek are not big, only longer than a finger. After all, the water is only about half a meter deep, so there are no big fish.
The two of them, Xiao Yuan, only caught a few fish, which were not enough to feed so many people. It was not convenient to process them one by one, so Lu Xi did not add the fish to the dinner.
But Lu Xi didn't waste it. He put all the small fish caught by Xiao Yuan into the bucket and kept them. When he got up tomorrow morning, he would deep-fry them and make them into dried fish, which would be good as snacks.
Of course, Xiao Yuan was not so easily bribed by the baby dragon. After he went into the water to catch the fish, the baby dragon used fire element spells to help Xiao Yuan dry his hair, and then Xiao Yuan recognized the baby dragon... It doesn't seem to be any better.
Anyway, now that the two cubs have completely played together, Xiao Yuan doesn't mind that the baby dragon follows Lu Xi all the time.
But the two cubs were really quite big, and Lu Xi and Dina were so crowded that they had almost no room to work. Lu Xi had no choice but to coax the two cubs out and continue catching fish... Anyway, the young dragons have fire. Elemental spells can dry and warm them, and they are not afraid of catching a cold.
After the two got out again, Lu Xi and Dina had room to work again.
What needs to be done is also very simple. It is to classify the wool of the Dishi sheep according to different hard and soft lengths. It is a very simple task. It does not even require much thinking and can be done while chatting.
Dina watched the wool being divided into several parts, holding the innermost layer of cashmere with a look of surprise on her face, "I thought the wool of the Dishi sheep was soft enough, but it turned out there was even softer stuff inside."
"Miss Lucy, what are you going to do with these?"
Lu Xi looked at the amount of wool in the pile and said, "Let's make a mat." It probably wasn't enough to make clothes.
"How to do it?" Dina was very curious. She couldn't think of what to do with this kind of scattered wool. Is it like stuffing it into a quilt?
After looking at the softness of the wool, Dina felt that it wasn't impossible.
"No hurry, wash them all first, then soak them in water for a while." Lu Xi walked out of the tent door and went to Xiulan to ask for tools.
Well, there's no other way. Xiulan's contract package is big and contains a lot of useful and useless things. Most of the time, if you want anything, you can definitely get it from Xiulan.
Although the sheep's wool is very clean and free of dirt, it still needs to be cleaned. There is a strong smell of stone sheep on it, and it smells bad if it is not washed.
Even Xiulan had a lot of cleaning supplies. Lu Xi silently changed Xiulan's positioning to "Doraemon". His contract package was no worse than Doraemon's pocket.
It wasn't a lot of work, so Lu Xi and Dina were the only ones cleaning by the stream. The others didn't come to help. They either had returned to the tent to rest early, or were sitting around the fire chatting.
There is no obstruction by the dense canopy of the forest, and on a bright moonlit night, you can see the surrounding scenery even without lighting.
The fires in the middle of several tents are burning brightly, and there are enough firewood piled next to them to burn for a whole night. The temperature will drop at night, and with the fires there, the night watchers will not be very cold, and they can heat some food at any time.
The candidates for the night watch are Miguel, Clyde, Cagli and Helene. Miguel is responsible for the time period from 10pm to 12pm, Clyde is responsible for 12pm and 2am, and Cagli is responsible for 2am. to 4 o'clock, and Hailin is responsible for 4 to 6 o'clock in the morning.
Clyde, Cagli and Hailin have all gone back to the tent to rest. At this moment, only White, Shulan and Miguel are still chatting in front of the fire.
It wasn't really chatting, it was mainly White who was talking alone. Miguel responded once or twice from time to time. Xiulan ignored him at all. Gradually, White couldn't continue chatting anymore.
The three of them silently looked at Dina and Lu Xi by the stream, chatting and laughing. From time to time, they glanced at the two monster cubs making a lot of noise in the water. They felt as if they were in the middle of two world.
By the time Lu Xi and Dina had washed the wool and soaked it in water, it was already almost eleven o'clock in the evening. White and Xiulan had already returned to the tent to go to bed, leaving Miguel who was keeping watch at night and sitting by the fire. forward.
Miguel repeatedly urged Dina to go back to the tent to rest, but Dina could only yawn and wave to Lu Xi.
Lu Xi glanced at the two cubs who were still catching small fish in the water and called out twice, but the two cubs that caught the fish didn't come back. Xiao Yuan howled at Lu Xi twice, and then one He threw himself into the water again.
Lu Xi couldn't understand Xiao Yuan's cry, but she guessed it probably meant "Mom, I'll play for a while and then go home."
The young dragon followed suit and roared, causing the ground around it to vibrate twice.
"Stop howling, stop howling." Lu Xi waved his hands repeatedly, "It's up to you two. Just don't disturb others to rest. I'll go back to sleep first."
Unlike humans, monsters need to sleep and rest every day. They can sleep for several days at a time or not sleep for several days. Moreover, their sleep is mostly light sleep and they are easily awakened. They only need to be able to squint for a while a day. Enough energy is guaranteed.
So Lu Xi wasn't too worried about the two of them. She, the only "ordinary human" in the team, was the one who needed more concern.
All the lights in the tent were dimmed, and there was an empty silence around the resting camp. There were only the occasional sounds of explosions when the flames were burning, and the sound of splashing water in the creek.
Miguel raised his head and glanced at the night sky. A nearby tent door suddenly opened, and Clyde walked out of it. He patted Miguel on the shoulder and said, "Go and rest. I'll take over next."
No need to look at the time, Miguel knew that it was definitely not yet twelve o'clock. Clyde was always like this, he would come out a little earlier than the stipulated time, and he would also ask others to replace him a little later than the stipulated time.
Without insisting, Miguel responded with a smile, stood up and returned to the tent, while Clyde sat down in front of the fire.
The two monster cubs in the creek may have just realized that they should go back, and ran back one after the other with two buckets in their mouths.
Clyde casually took a look into the buckets. Oh my god, there were two buckets full of small fish. These two monster cubs must have caught all the fish in this creek.
"Go get some water and pour it in, otherwise the fish will be dead tomorrow morning and it won't taste good." Clyde knew that these two monster cubs could understand human speech, so he started talking to them directly.
The young dragon reacted the fastest. He grabbed the only empty bucket outside and went back to the creek to fill it with water.
Seeing the baby dragon's clumsy footsteps trampling on the ground, Clyde frowned, "Can't you fly?"
The young dragon suddenly froze for a moment when he heard the words, then he was thoughtful, suddenly realized, and fluttered his wings and left the ground.
Feeling the gusts of wind brought by the wings of the baby dragon, Clyde was speechless for a moment, but at least he didn't have to feel the baby dragon slamming on the ground, which was good.
Xiao Yuan had just come out of the creek. The water on his body had not had time to be dried by the baby dragon, and his hair was wet. When he was blown by the wind fanned by the baby dragon's wings, he immediately shivered and leaned towards the fire. Damn it.
Clyde glanced at Xiao Yuan and had to say that Xiao Yuan's appearance was absolutely irresistible. As one of mankind's favorite types of familiars, Silver Wolf's appearance was absolutely impeccable.
At this time, Xiao Yuan, whose whole body was soaked in water and his hair was wet, blinked his big bright eyes, looking pitiful and aggrieved, which would make anyone's heart tremble a few times just looking at him.
"You, come here." Clyde hesitated for a moment, but still spoke to Xiao Yuan. As an elemental warrior with the fire element attribute, what the young dragon can do, such as using the fire element to dry the water, Clyde Naturally, he can do it, and even because of his higher control, he can do it much better than the young dragon.
However, the elemental warrior is no better than the elemental mage. He can control the elemental power far away from the body. Clyde can only control the fire element at a relatively close distance around the body, so Xiao Yuan needs to get close to him.
The big palm, as warm as a hair dryer, caressed Xiao Yuan's back with the warm fire element. The fluffy hair touched Clyde's palm. The soft touch made Clyde suddenly understand those who pursue the silver wolf. Man, who doesn’t like the feeling of plushness?
The fire element controlled by Clyde was warm and docile, unlike the fire element controlled by the young dragon, which was fiery and violent. Xiao Yuan felt comfortable and involuntarily rubbed Clyde's palm.
Clyde was startled, and Xiao Yuan was stunned when he came back to his senses. The whole wolf didn't know how to react.
But this is normal. Silver wolves are a race of monsters that are close to humans. If Clyde hadn't hurt Lu Xi before, Xiao Yuan would have been secretly holding a grudge in his heart, otherwise he would have been very close to these people.
Now, it seemed that Xiao Yuan was very embarrassed. Fortunately, the baby dragon flew back with a bucket in its mouth and rescued Xiao Yuan who didn't know how to react.
After filling the two buckets of fish with water, Xiao Yuan and Xiao Long got into Lu Xi's tent one after another. There was no sound inside the tent.
Clyde lamented that Miss Lucy was sleeping so deeply and didn't even react when the two monster cubs approached her. Suddenly her expression changed slightly and she felt something was wrong.
No matter who it is, it is impossible to sleep so hard outside in an unstable environment. No matter how arrogant a person is, they will keep some attention outside to prevent accidents from happening.
But unfortunately, there was no sound at all in Lu Xi's tent, and Miss Lucy didn't even turn over after falling asleep.
It was late at night, and Clyde had doubts in his mind, so he kept observing Luxi's tent. It was not until after two o'clock in the morning, when it was time for him and Cagli to take over the shift, that Clyde heard someone turning over in Luxi's tent. The sound appears.
Two hours later, Clyde silently noted the time, walked to Kagli's tent, and woke Kagli up.
