Mercenaries and Adventurers

After Zhao Ji went back, he took a nice bath first, and then changed into the original set of clothes that he had already cleaned up and repaired. Then he asked the son of the hotel owner to go to the tavern for a meat meal for him, and stayed in his room in the hotel. Eat and rest.

That night, Zhao Ji had a dream about elves as before.

He had these same dreams yesterday on the way back to the village. But yesterday, after all, he rested in an unsafe place in the wild. Zhao Ji only woke up after a few hours of sleep, so the dream last night seemed very short.

And today's dream about elves seemed extraordinarily long because of Zhao Ji's early rest.

He dreamed that one of the female elves who had worked in the ruins had somehow left there. It wasn't until this moment that Zhao Ji discovered that he thought that these recent dreams were all about the previous ruins, which was not correct.

These dreams of his actually followed the figure of the female elf.

For some unknown reason, the female elf left the ruins in a hurry. The other elves prepared her luggage and bid farewell to her, and the elf quickly left here.

The scenes dreamed in the ruins are all understood by Zhao Ji, but the situation outside the ruins is quite different.

After walking out of the silver relic passage, there is a wooden tree heart staircase, and from the stairs, there is a large hollow tree core.

Many other elves who look like elves but don't seem to be like the elves who worked in the ruins live here. When the other elves saw that this was leaving, they respectfully guided the female elf to leave.

After leaving the heart of the tree, Zhao Ji could see what the giant tree looked like ten thousand years ago through the movement of the female elf.

The huge branches stretched to the sky with a height of 200 meters. A row of four giant trees was like a green building standing on the hilly terrain, and it looked like a small **** against the surrounding hills. Even on the branches of giant trees in the sky, there are many groups of giant eagles with huge wings raised by elves.

The female elf carried her luggage on her back and cast a magical flying spell. Before the giant eagle hovering in the sky landed on the huge landing platform on the ground, she flew directly into the sky to find the strongest giant eagle to ride the wind. flew away.

Zhao Ji followed her perspective all the way to the west, skipping the flat land and rushing rivers, flying over the continuous mountains and vast forests. Under the blessing of the mysterious spell that Zhao Ji could not understand, the sturdy giant eagle flew higher than the highest mountain peak encountered along the way, and flew faster than the fastest flying falcon. She completely controlled this giant eagle Fly in the direction she chooses along the fastest and shortest straight line.

In the extremely high sky, the wings were full of invisible hot air and flew at high speed. The female elf was sleepless, because she wanted to use the stars in the sky to navigate along the way and feed the giant eagle with nutritious food. food.

It turned out that most of the luggage that other elves prepared for her was nutritious food to maintain the giant eagle's physical strength. When she was thirsty, she cast a spell to condense the water vapor in the high-altitude clouds that occasionally passed by, and fed it to the giant eagle and herself.

In the second half of this journey, she flew all the way through a large area, whether prosperous or barren, and finally skipped a large ocean, and arrived at an ocean that was completely floating on the ocean. A moving island made of huge giant plants.

How huge the moving plant island is cannot be seen from the sky. When the female elf landed on the takeoff and landing platform with the giant eagle, Zhao Ji was horrified by the huge and astonishing scale. come over.

Before dawn in the morning, Zhao Ji was awakened by his dream.

This time he can know that the dream he had was indeed not a related dream that he spontaneously produced after staying in the ruins for a long time. There seems to be something related between him and the ruins. To be precise, he had some inexplicable dream connection with the female elf in the ruins that he dreamed of last night.

He can dream of what the female elf experienced in time and space thousands of years ago. About working in the ruins, about religious ceremonies with elves, and about urgent journeys with her.

Lying on the bed, Zhao Ji felt that the air in the room was a little stuffy, so he got up and opened a gap in the window, allowing cold air to flow into the room.

After feeling better, Zhao Ji continued to lie on the comfortable bed to rest and think. The dry and flexible straw mattress made cracking noises as he turned left and right.

Zhao Ji himself doesn't think it's a scary thing to dream about the elves' long-term stories continuously at this time. It's like watching an evening TV series, and he becomes interested in the things about the elves instead.

In the dream, the words spoken by the elves, the clothes and tools they wore, the incantations when they cast mysterious spells, and the memories when they performed sacrifices to gods or something, all slowly surged up from the depths of Zhao Ji's mind.

After the roosters raised in each family crowed, Zhao Ji got up and went out. He carried a wooden box of armor, and carried his full set of weapons.

After a while, he will go to the public security station to have a free meal, and then put on his armor to show the curious villagers who came over to satisfy their curiosity. By the way, he will exercise in the public security station. He has not practiced martial arts for many days.

Of course, it's not that Zhao Ji's various martial arts have been reduced. The experience he has accumulated in real battles is ten times more important than ordinary training. Zhao Ji just wanted to see how his level was recently, and how he was doing after so many battles with goblins and wild wolves.

Of course, after the blacksmith shop opened, he would have to take the armor and weapons to repair it.

When Zhao Ji came to the public security station, he found that he had come earlier. Picking up the wooden bowl and wooden spoon, Zhao Ji couldn't wait to have a full breakfast, but Zhao Ji found that the chef strongly recommended salt-roasted mushrooms to him. The origin of these mushrooms was suspicious. It's the mushrooms on the garbage dump in the village.

In the end, Zhao Ji only asked for a bowl of clear vegetable soup and a small piece of toast.

The vegetable broth is not as thick as it used to be. It is estimated that the chef spent all the cooking time on salt-roasted mushrooms, so he hastily made a pot of vegetable broth. Fortunately, the chef didn't add mushrooms to the soup, otherwise Zhao Ji would have had a dry breakfast in the morning.

Zhao Ji was the only one in the public security station who didn't order the salt-roasted mushrooms, and everyone else, including Lao Duomu, ate these delicious mushrooms. It is estimated that people in the village are used to these mushrooms, Zhao Ji thinks it should be like this.

After eating, Zhao Ji told Lao Duomu that he would use the training ground inside the gate of the security station for some daily training. Lao Duomu agreed with a big wave of his hand. He also moved a wooden pier to sit on the base of the wall curiously Watch how this young warrior from the city goes about his daily training.

The other sentries who were fine were also curious about Keir's training. Some of them sat at the door of the dining room, watching while eating, and some of them leaned against the weapon rack used for training and watched.

Zhao Ji piled his weapons next to Old Domo, and put the armor box beside him, asking him to watch for him.

Taking off his thick coat, Zhao Ji put the coat on his weapon, and did a few simple warm-up actions. Zhao Ji chose a long wooden stick without a gun head as the first training weapon.

This long stick was two and a half meters long, and it should be used to imitate the spear of the militia. Zhao Ji held it in his hand, held it with both hands, and stepped forward to stab it.

call.

A stick stabbed out, causing a sound.

"Young people are powerful, and they can make a name for themselves at will." Lao Duomu praised him.

Zhao Ji smiled, he didn't really know how to use a long spear, so he mostly used it to stab.

Huhusheng remembered that Zhao Ji only practiced one move. He has learned how to use footsteps to match offense and defense, so every time his footsteps take a step forward, it will be matched with an attack, or a long stick to block the defense.

Old Duo Mu is an experienced veteran. Although he is too old to move, his eyesight is still there.

"The footsteps are okay, but a little impatient." He commented on Keir's footsteps.

Zhao Ji curled his lips. He didn't use other weapons. For the long spear he only used for stabbing, the reason for rushing his steps was to catch up with the target.

Just like this, Zhao Ji thought he was slow.

The other sentries saw that the Kiel warrior only simulated a stabbing move with a long stick, and asked Kiel to make two more moves.

"No, I've practiced this move well because of hunting monsters. I haven't learned other moves that use long spears. I haven't used them much."

Old Duomu felt that Kiel would do this trick to shirk, so he opened a bet and asked a sentry to practice against him twice. If the sentry won, the Kiel warrior would show them more skills. If the Sentinel loses, it's up to him.

Zhao Ji shrugged his shoulders and didn't care, this condition was nothing to him, so he nodded and agreed.

Old Duomu ordered one of the strongest of their sentries. This man was nicknamed Shi Mo, and he only had a wrong name, but he didn't have a wrong nickname.

As soon as you hear the nickname, you know that this stone mill is tall and tall. To be honest, in a village with insufficient nutrition, it is still not easy to produce such a strong man with a strong body and a good height.

Most of the farmers who often work in the fields have dark and strong muscles, but these muscles can bring long-term endurance and endurance to the farmers, but they are actually insufficient in strength, let alone the skill and agility of using weapons.

Shi Mo also took a long stick. He held both hands in the middle of the long stick and waved it left and right, making the same whistling sound. Coupled with the opponent's strong figure, it looks quite decent.

Zhao Ji stepped back, and the two stood at both ends of the training ground inside the gate of the security station.

At this time, some villagers who had received Kiel's permission to come and watch the armor yesterday had already gathered at the entrance of the security station in twos and threes. They saw the Kiel warrior and the village's stone mill practicing against each other, and they were all happy to gather around the entrance of the security station to watch. The small boys and girls couldn't squeeze the adults, so they had to bend down and squeeze in, and sit on the ground to watch, but the adults were much more convenient, and the older ones didn't need to squeeze, just give the younger generation in the village a few slaps on the head, and they could calmly squeeze in. He walked to the gate of the public security station to watch. The youths who stretched their hands vigorously had no choice but to build a ladder for each other, and climbed to the outer wall of the security station to sit and watch.

After giving the space for sparring in the middle, Zhao Ji no longer retreated. He stood still, holding the bottom of the long stick with both hands, holding the front with his left hand, and holding the stick at his waist with his right hand.

Old Duomu picked up a stone, threw it upwards, waited for the moment the stone hit the ground, and announced the start.

Shi Mo strode forward with his stick held high, and Zhao Ji also stepped forward, but his steps were much faster than Shi Mo.

One sped up, jerking forward with both arms.

Before the wooden stick that Shi Mo held high had a chance to fall, he suddenly felt a tightness in his chest, and he flew upside down, and then fell to the ground on his back.

The onlookers didn't see it clearly just now, and the stone mill man flew out before the two of them slammed together.

"Hey, hiss, it hurts so much." Shi Mo punched his chest twice, and finally regained his strength. He opened the clothes on his chest and found that even the skin on his chest was not broken.

"what happened?"

"Yes, why did the stone mill fly out just now?"

"Hee hee, hit and hit."

Old Domo scratched his beard, just now he saw how Kiel knocked down the stone mill, it was too fast, his old eyes almost didn't realize it.

"No, come again." Shi Mo picked up the stick and yelled for more times.

There are not many opportunities to practice with others, and if it is free, I just met today, and the other party is still yelling to come again, Zhao Ji is so happy, I am afraid that you will not come, if you come, I will let you practice today.

Zhao Ji took a few steps back and made a gesture of coming again.

The two sides started the second game again.

Shi Mo was more careful this time. He slowed down and held the long stick horizontally, ready to resist the attack of the Kiel warrior at any time.

Zhao Ji was still the same, he held the bottom of the wooden stick in his hand, and when he saw that the opponent was on the defensive, he ran and accelerated, and quickly approached Shimo with a brisk step~www.readwn.com~ Shimo was about to swing the long stick horizontally, and Keel stopped in front of him.

But Zhao Ji stepped on the ground and slowed down, while his upper body was thrown forward. Zhao Ji sent his arms forward, and the long stick directly interlaced with the long stick from the stone mill, and hit the opponent's chest all at once. .

Boom.

Shi Mo, who was caught, fell backwards. His lower body did not move because he was standing still, while his upper body bent at an angle and fell to the ground with his whole body.

This time everyone could see clearly, because Zhao Ji slowed down at the moment of the final attack, so everyone saw what was going on.

Old Duo Mu slapped his thigh, pointed at the stone mill that had fallen to the ground and cursed loudly: "You idiot, the opponent's hand is held at the tail of the stick, and you are held in the middle of the stick. How could you hit him? What do you think? Hmm ?”

As soon as Old Duo Mu said, all the onlookers understood how the Kiel warriors knocked down the stone mill just now. It turned out that it was a matter of the length of the wooden stick.

The wooden stick used by the Kiel warrior was one section longer than the opponent's. As long as he shot first, the stone mill would not be able to hit the Kiel warrior in the same attack anyway.

Realizing this, all the crowd, old and young, sighed and explained to Shimo what happened.

Shi Mo fell to the ground, and he also figured out the reason why he was knocked down amidst everyone's noise.

It turned out to be such a thing, then he used weapons in the wrong way for many years before. Thinking of this, Shi Mo wished he could slap himself on the head twice.

Climbing up again, Shi Mo yelled: "Drink! I figured it out, let's come again."

Zhao Jixiao almost lost sight of his eyes, backed away slowly again, and said at the same time.

"OK!"
