Elven settlers

Chapter 179
As the temperature rises, the accumulated water in the ground is evaporating at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The weeds that were crushed to the ground by the heavy rain yesterday had stood up again.

Compared with those colorful wild flowers, they may not be beautiful enough, but they are tough enough.

The flowers that had just bloomed for a few days did not survive the torrential rain. The delicate petals fell to the ground and became the food of geraniums.

Flowers are one of the few vegetarian foods that geraniums like to eat besides meat.

But it doesn't eat all kinds of flowers. At this time, it is walking on the grass covered with petals, stopping and picking up the flowers it likes to eat.

Hei Lujia walked at the front of the team, raised his head and sniffed lightly from time to time, and led everyone to the destination.

Rock was planning to transport back the red pine wood that was dropped earlier yesterday, but was interrupted by the sudden heavy rain.

After entering the summer, the weather changes very quickly, and there is no telling when it will rain again.If it is repeatedly baptized by heavy rain and sun exposure, the wood will be damaged.

This will waste precious wood, and it is also disrespectful to this red pine that has grown for tens of hundreds of years, so he has to transport the wood back to the camp for processing as soon as possible.

Fortunately, the rain stopped last night, and today's weather is very nice.Rock looked up at the surrounding sky, which was empty and blue without a trace of cloud.It's a great day to work, except for the heat.

Although he had already picked a shaded place for walking, Rock still felt that the temperature was a bit high after walking for a while.

"If the summer is always so hot, it seems that this situation will also have to be considered when building a house in the future."

Rock took off the cowboy hat he was wearing, slapped it on his face, and undid the two buttons down the neckline.

At this moment, a strong force suddenly came from behind him.Two dark green rattan whips as thick as arms suddenly protruded from Roque's armpits, wrapped around his shoulders, and lifted him up from the ground.

"Huh? Oh! What's going on?!"

Since it was on his own territory, Rock was not too vigilant, which led to him being attacked by his "own people".

After Geranium lifted Rock up with a rattan whip, before he could react, the slender and powerful neck got under his legs and carried him on his back.

By the time Rock recovered from the sudden weightlessness, he was already riding on Geranium.

"Gamo~"

Geranium turned her head and looked at Roque mischievously, as if she had succeeded in a sneak attack.

As early as when it was still a bay leaf, it always wanted to push Rock up, but every time whether it was a frontal challenge or a sneak attack from behind, it ended up being overturned by Rock.

This time, after it evolved, relying on its stronger and taller body, it finally succeeded in carrying Rock up.

"Haha, you guys startled me."

After realizing that it was Geranium's joke, Rock also relaxed. Just now he thought that he had been attacked by some powerful enemy, so he touched the handle of the knife at his waist.

Patting Geranium's neck, Rock raised his head and looked around.

Sitting on the back of a geranium is a very novel experience. Rock's geranium is tall, which makes his sight much higher than when he usually stands on the ground.

Just looking up, you can see far away, and the field of vision is very wide.

The large piece of grass swayed slightly like a green ocean, and the vast wilderness had a panoramic view, giving Rock an urge to run as fast as he could.

"Gamma!"

Sensing Rock's mood, Geranium was also eager to use its front legs to plan the ground, and looked back at Rock expectantly. It also wanted to run on the field with Rock.

"How about it, buddy, do you want to run?"

After Roque and Geranium looked at each other with shining eyes, they immediately understood each other's thoughts, and then immediately put them into action.

"It's okay, the cane whip can be loosened, it will be more dangerous if it is tied."

Holding Geranium's neck with both hands, Rock first adjusted his posture.

Since this trip was to carry the wood that had been cut before, and no tools were needed, Geranium did not carry its own saddle bag.

So now Rock doesn't have any auxiliary tools, and rides directly on the back of Geranium.

This kind of bareback riding is also called horseback riding in equestrianism.It is a very effective way to test the rider's basic ability and practice riding skills.

Although horseback riding is a bit difficult, the advantage is that it is relatively safe. When you fall off the horse, you will fall directly from the horse's back without the danger of your feet getting stuck in the stirrups and being dragged along. At most, your buttocks will hurt a little.

This is why Rock let the geranium let go of the whip.

He can ride a horse. Although he is not proficient, he has at least mastered some basic skills and has a certain understanding of related theoretical knowledge.

Although the body structure of geraniums is not exactly the same as that of horses, the underlying logic is understandable.

Moreover, Geranium is not comparable to those horses before crossing, whether it is wisdom, physical strength or the bond with Rock, they are all incomparable.

Rock moved his body slightly, so that his center of gravity coincided with that of Geranium's body as much as possible.

Then relax your legs, sticking to the sides of Geranium's body.The upper body leans forward slightly, holding the geranium's neck with both hands.

"Okay, let's go!"

"Gamo~"

The geranium chirped cheerfully, raised its limbs and started to run vigorously.

Its limbs are long and strong, and its body is full of inexhaustible strength. It carries a Rock without any burden at all. Coupled with Rock's intentional cooperation, it runs very briskly.

The dense weeds fell to the sides under the geranium's claws, forming two waves of broken grass.

Rock sat on Geranium's back, his sturdy waist undulating slightly rhythmically as if on a spring.

This is to remove the upward force from Geranium during running. Geranium's pace is steady and quick, although it is not particularly bumpy, it is very powerful.

If this force cannot be dissipated, Roque riding on its back will be bumped up high and then smashed down heavily. Not only Roque will be uncomfortable, but Geranium will also be very uncomfortable when running. , It may even cause them to be injured after a long time.

And after Roque smoothly dissipated this upward force through the strength of his waist and abdomen, his current buttocks are firmly attached to Geranium's back, as if glued to it.

The benefits of doing this are self-evident. Not only is Rock free from the pain of bumps, Geranium is also very comfortable to run, and the two of them almost form a whole.
