Chapter 4 I just want to drink water!

Language must have followed the development of human beings. The more modern and productive the world, the higher the unity of language must be, because people need to cooperate with each other, so what if they can’t communicate?

When people have such an urgent need, either the language of a certain powerful country becomes the second foreign language of most people, just like the role of English on the earth, or a certain language is distributed all over the world with immigrants from a certain country. As these immigrants assimilated or established new nations, the language would function as a lingua franca.

Could it be that everyone in this ghost world is living their lives behind closed doors?But this is not in line with the emergence of interpretation magic!

Inventions come only when there is a need. If there is no need for translation, there will be no such thing as interpreting magic, and it seems to be necessary for daily life. The original Cecil did not leave anything else but prepared this.

In this way, the conclusions drawn before and after this are contradictory!

The magic of interpreting means that there is a need for communication, but if there is a need for communication, why is there not a widely used language?Generally speaking, magic is more expensive than language anyway, right?The circulation of magic is very poor at first glance, not everyone can use it!

Wait a minute, or is there an extremely perverted segregation system in this world?

The world where the Gay Knights live is a modern society that requires frequent cross-border exchanges, but the beast boys in the Bird's Nest are almost primitive societies?No, no, wait a minute, maybe magic is very simple in this world, everyone can learn it, right?

It's not right, then he should obviously be a class that knows magic, and the productivity shown by the items he owns does not match!The house, the clothes, what rags!

A language problem unraveled a mess of questions and made Cecil's mind even more confused.He lowered his head and wanted to find some more answers on the parchment, but was surprised to find that there were still many words after [Human Language 170]: [Goblin Language 380], [Dwarf Language [-]], [Giant Language [-]] 】……

The most eye-catching of these numbers is the Elvish language. Cecil stared at the number [13] and fell into deep thought. Fortunately, the language statistics are finally over at this moment, and he couldn't wait to ask another question: [Number of Elven how many? 】

[It is difficult to count the exact number of elves. The estimated number is about 6. Elves are a long-lived species. Your request is too embarrassing for me, a human being. 】

In other words, the number of elves known to humans is not as large as the number of elves, and an average elf uses two completely different languages.

Do these elves have nothing to do to invent languages ​​all day long?

Cecil fell into the biggest myth since time travel. He looked blankly at the laughing comrades in front of him, imagining that they were sternly spitting pornographic words, and his expectations for this world were further advanced. Reduced--

What kind of nonsense is this!

The mud house soon appeared. Comrades in gorgeous costumes ran into the house without knowing what they were doing, and soon came out again. They happily said: "Cecile, hurry up!"

Cecil was about to collect his thoughts, but shook his head after hearing this.

"What's the matter with you?" The red curly hair seemed a little surprised, "I have encountered a problem in my research work? Don't worry about this night, we still have a long time in this ghost place, why treat ourselves so hard?"

The braided brown hair patted Cecil on the shoulder, and sighed: "Life is short, enjoy yourself in time!"

"Forget it, let's go." "David" made a vulgar gesture, "Cecil will study the legacy of the predecessors all night—"

The comrades laughed strangely and left happily.

After confirming that these people had disappeared, Cecil immediately jumped up and rummaged through the boxes in the house—in fact, there was nothing to rummage. He quickly found seven pebble-like things in the corner of the straw bed, which were very rough and dirty. It's like it was pulled out of the ground.

He wanted to wash the stone, looked inside the house, looked outside again, and was shocked to find that there was no water in this ghost place, no ponds, tanks, streams, etc., at all.

How to grow without water?

Cecil stood blankly in front of the so-called door, looking at the green sprouting Oda at a loss.

How did these people survive?

Cecil raised his head and glanced at the sun. Since he went out just now, the sun has been in a state of setting. If the geographical situation here is similar to that of the earth, it is probably afternoon at this time. Those comrades also said that they would go to have fun at night. That is to say, it will be dark soon.

He took out the parchment and asked the urgent question: 【Where is the water? 】

Fortunately, this question is still within common sense, Yuan Cecil prepared the answer: [There is a pond three miles away from home. 】

3 miles... almost 1500 meters, seems to be an acceptable distance.

Cecil thought for a while, and suddenly felt something was wrong: [Where is the bucket for water? 】

【I do not understand what you mean. 】

Isn't it, isn't the barrel not within common sense?

[How to bring the water back? 】

【I do not understand what you mean. 】

What the hell?What's so hard to understand just to fill it with water? !

Cecil thought hard for a long time: 【Aside from drinking water by the pond, is there any other way to drink water? 】

【No. 】This time I finally have an answer, but the answer is not happy at all.

[What if I want to drink water in the middle of the night? 】

[There is a pond three miles away from home. 】

The only answer related to "water" is this sentence?

Cecil decided to ignore the parchment and figure out a solution by himself. He didn't feel thirsty yet, but human beings' tolerance for water was very low.It is impossible to carry water with clothes, not even the gorgeous robes that comrades wear. In the room, the wooden table is useless, the bed is useless, and there is nothing else.

He went outside, looking for plants like bamboo, but unfortunately, there was nothing but grass and mud.He went to the bird's nest and found that besides the beast boy, the "beast man" had also returned.

These adults and children are dressed exactly the same, with nothing on their bodies except a piece of animal skin, and they hold rough wooden sticks in their hands - the rough means that these sticks are broken branches, not even straightened, and there are small sticks. A broken branch was attached to it——it was watching the visiting knight with vigilant eyes.

Cecil thought for a while, and raised a hand to say hello. Unexpectedly, this action was like poking a beehive. The "beast man" grabbed the "beast boy" and ran away, shouting something while running. He was left standing blankly in front of the bird's nest with his hands raised.

Recalling, the voices made by the "orcs" just now were not vague shouts, but a language with clear syllables, including repeated pronunciations, which was obviously some kind of warning.

These people are not uncivilized savages, they are likely to be people at the bottom. Even if they have certain knowledge, without tools and suitable conditions, it is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice.The local area seems to be lacking in natural resources. That being the case, why are the four knights sent here? If it is true, as the original Cecil said, the Gay Knights have a glorious history?

Cecil sighed, and searched the bird's nest, but as expected, there was nothing left, not to mention tools, he didn't even find any food.The only thing he wondered was, where did these people get the branches?He had walked about a few hundred meters before he met his comrades. Except for the mountains in the distance, he could see grass. The dead cows that look at the mountains really exist. He doesn’t plan to go to the mountains to see them now. .

It was just a worry before, but now, Cecil is really a little thirsty. He looked at the sky and felt that 1500 meters was a relatively acceptable distance. He went to the pond to drink while it was still dark It is a good choice, and you can also browse the nearby environment and test the physical strength of the body.

[How to get to the pond? ] Cecil asked the parchment.

A hand-painted picture appeared on the parchment scroll, which was very crude, with crooked lines, but the journey between the destination and home was also very common, without any fork in the road—there was no road defined by human civilization at all. Grass Fu's direction recognition—from this point of view, it is very convenient.

Facts have proved that it is impossible for people living in this environment to be weak, or in other words, the weak are all eliminated by the cruel nature. Cecil ran all the way, his face was neither red nor out of breath, and the temperature was quite suitable. It's a little hot, perfect for outdoor activities.

After walking for about 15 minutes, Cecil saw the pond—or rather, the puddle.

A small patch of mud had sunk and formed a puddle, shallow and dirty, surrounded by animal droppings.

Cecil stared at the water, with no desire to drink at all, even though he was really thirsty now, the water was consumed by exercise.

[The water is too dirty. 】 Cecil tried to ask the original owner of the body.

Fortunately, this time it can be regarded as asking the right keyword, and the answer appeared on the parchment: [Use magic to purify. 】

[I don't know magic. 】

[Oh, poor man, you can't survive without magic.I considered this possibility, but my love for tits surpasses my pity for outsiders, forgive me, outsiders.If you don't understand magic at all, don't know magic, or don't understand what magic is at all, I suggest you kill yourself immediately. 】

Cecil: "..."

Is it so scary?Lao Tzu has received a complete education in the human industrial society——

[How to learn magic? ] Cecil wrote this sentence spinelessly.

【talent. 】

[Only by talent? 】

[Yes, even bloodlines are not acceptable. 】Original Cecil replied, 【Magic can make you drink clean water, delicious food, warm clothes, and keep you alive.You cannot survive without magic. 】

Cecil pondered for a long time, put the parchment aside, thought for a while, took off his clothes and folded several layers, and made a filtering device that was better than nothing. Anyway, there is no one in this wilderness, even if there is him. Shy about being bare buttocked, he has long understood that a thicker skin is the only way to live well after years of wandering and working.

He picked a piece of relatively clear water and picked it up. Before he drank it, Cecil caught a glimpse of something out of the corner of his eye. He raised his head and saw an elk.
