Chapter 218 Barbato Village
"Go down." Valencia's expression was not pleasant. She felt sorry for the warriors. She walked around the grassland for almost five times before she completely got rid of the annoying Udi Zi Crow. She was so tired that she was about to foam at the mouth. Just to save a boy who wanted to hit him.
"Oh." Tang Ling held the bird's nest and turned over and dismounted.
Valencia listened to the warrior's gasp and jumped off the horse. She stroked the warrior's neck and didn't even look at Tang Ling.
But Tang Ling didn't mind such a thing, after all, this was a kind-hearted girl.
He pulled open his backpack and searched for it, took out a melon seed as big as a palm, and handed it over: "Come on, I'll give it to you."
"What?" Valencia turned her head, but saw a palm-sized melon seed lying in Tang Ling's hand.
The shell of the melon seeds is black and has red stripes on it, which is full and round, with a luster similar to that of a stone.
"Holy fruit? Is this a holy fruit?" Valencia widened her eyes in surprise. She was a little disbelief. She directly took the seeds of the Qianteng Sunflower from Tang Ling, put them on her nose and sniffed them.
It was this breath that had a strange fragrance, exactly the same as the holy fruit she had seen when she went to most of the Wawa Didi.
"Give it back to you." Valencia's eyes were reluctant, but the holy fruit was so precious that she thought she did not deserve such a fruit.
"Please keep it." Tang Ling had an indifferent smile on her face, and she put her hands in her bag, and did not pick it up: "I said I would repay you. I couldn't find any good things, just this one is OK."
"Isn't this a good thing?" Valencia was a little curious about the boy in front of her. The legendary holy fruit was produced from a human-eating plant in the Hurlochi Mountains. This plant is not its opponent even if it is the most vicious Greedy Wolf King on the grassland.
Valencia once was very curious about what kind of monster this plant would look like? Will it be bigger than the largest tent in the village, but the boy said that the holy fruit it produced was just a good thing.
"I don't know either, I just picked it up anyway." Tang Ling smiled innocently.
Valencia opened her mouth slightly and picked it up. Can she pick it up? This guy is so lucky, right? But can she have any other explanation besides picking it up?
No, judging from his thin appearance, let alone compared to the hunters in the village, even an average young man is stronger than him.
"Let's go." Tang Ling patted his backpack, then carried it on his back, held the bird's nest in his hand, looked forward, and decided to continue to set off.
According to the map, Babato Village is not far ahead. He wanted to find out if there is a small black market in the village, and he urgently needed to exchange some supplies.
This scene made Valencia stunned: "You, are you leaving now?"
"Otherwise? I'm going to rush to Babato Village, if it's too late..." Speaking of this, Tang Ling scratched her head and suddenly remembered something: "Do you know Babato Village?"
In fact, it is not for Tang Ling to ask this question. There are six safe villages distributed near this small plain, but the route he will only pass through Babato Village.
In order not to delay the time to go to Dark Harbor, Tang Ling did not plan to go to other villages. This small plain is the common grassland of several villages, and this girl may be from other villages.
After all, according to Su Xiao’s notes, he would arrive at the Port of Darkness before December, the month before the storm sailing began.
"Otherwise, to find zero, you have to wait until July of the next year." Su Xiao's notes recorded this.
In short, when Zero is mentioned many times, it seems that Zero is an extremely important person.
However, there is no description in Su Xiao's notes about anything about Zero, and the only thing that can be confirmed is that Zero is a man.
When Tang Ling thinks of this, he is a little crazy. How should he find change when the crowd is vast?
Tang Ling was a little distracted.
But Valencia's face showed a hint of surprise: "You are going to Babato Village? You can be with me."
After saying this, Valencia was a little shy.
Although the girls on the grassland are enthusiastic and bold, it seems a bit too unreserved to invite a young man to accompany you.
"Okay, let's go together." Tang Ling felt very happy. Having a kind girl leads the way would save him a lot of trouble.
Because of this black girl, Tang Ling inexplicably had a good impression of Babato Village.
In the Ziyue era, the chance of meeting bad people was slightly higher than the chance of meeting good people. The black girl was kind, and I believe that the people in the Babato village were not bad either.
So, Tang Ling and Valencia set off together and walked towards the Babato village.
Because of a melon seed of a thousand vine sunflower, Valencia's impression of Tang Ling improved a lot, so she showed the enthusiasm of the grassland people and chatted with Tang Ling all the way.
From the conversation, Valencia learned that the boy's name was Donnie, who came from the other side of the Grand Canyon, at the foot of a branch mountain range in the Hurlock Mountains.
In their village, every teenager will be tested to take risks until he is 15 years old, for three years.
In Donnie's mouth, although the people in this village are not strong, they have rich experience in surviving in the wild.
I see.
Valencia felt that she had gained knowledge, and the two of them slowly came to Babato Village during the conversation along the way.
The village of Babato is located on a very gentle low slope just south of the Lazier Plain.
From a distance, you can see the huge wooden wall leaning against the low slope, forming an irregular circle, wrapping the village of Babato.
"These logs are the most precious property in our village. Each of them was collected by our ancestors in danger from the Hurlochi Mountains." Valencia was very proud of the walls of Babato village.
But she was also a little disappointed. Why did the people in the village lose the courage of their ancestors now? Not to mention going to the Hurlock Mountains to collect wood, even Mitos Canyon, they no longer had the courage to enter.
However, look at these giant trees. Each one is as high as 30 meters high and has a diameter of more than 2 meters. It is densely arranged together and can still withstand many dangers.
For example, the greedy wolf on the grassland, and the wandering small corpse crowds.
Tang Ling showed a slight shock. This was a necessary respect for Valencia. In fact, compared with the huge stone walls in the No. 17 safety area, the wooden walls looked very thin.
Not to mention anything else, I just hope that the impact of a small beast tide will be difficult to resist.
Here, you will feel that the living environment of a safe village is so difficult. No wonder according to the records, many safe villages disappear every year. Many wanderers are willing to wander around rather than stay in one place and build a safe village.
But at the same time, you will feel even more moved that the luck of the people of Babato village is that a village can survive to this day requires God's luck.
After meeting the special order, Valencia led Tang Ling into the village of Babato.
As soon as he walked into the huge wooden door, Tang Ling saw many cattle and sheep, undoubtedly the most docile breeds in the Ziyue era.
Also because cattle and sheep are squeezed behind the wooden walls, it is full of the smell of cow and sheep dung. The unique smell on them is not extremely unpleasant, but it is somewhat pungent.
In addition, humans live in tents, which can be said to be defensive in the Purple Moon era.
These tents are like mushrooms falling between cattle and sheep, and occasionally there are Winsky spotted hunting dogs. This large breed of dogs that were also extremely close to humans in the Purple Moon era ran between cattle and sheep, roaring and driving some naughty calf and sheep back to their communities.
Tang Ling saw all this very novel, and it can be said that it was completely different from the safety zone No. 17.
But Valencia was a little embarrassed and said in a low voice: "Before the purple moon rises, these cattle and sheep must be rushed back to the village."
"I understand." Tang Ling smiled, stretched her waist, took a deep breath. He actually liked to see different scenery.
This action inexplicably won Valencia's greater favorability for Tang Ling. After all, every year the Lazier Plain welcomes caravans.
Even if the caravans try hard to restrain themselves, they will occasionally show disgust.
Looking at this Donnie, I really like the appearance of Babato Village.
"Let's go, my tent is there. My Eminem's milk tea is very delicious. You can definitely drink a few big bowls." Valencia is very enthusiastic. This is the case with the grassland people. The more you have a good impression of you, the more you want to bring out all the good things to share with you.
"Milk tea!" Tang Ling's eyes lit up.
"Yeah, milk tea. Hahaha..." Valencia smiled very happily.
**
Ten minutes later, Tang Ling had already arrived at the tent of Valencia's house.
Compared with other tents in the village, Valencia's tents appear to be two rounds wide. I guess its status in Babato Village is higher?
Tang Ling looked at the tent of Valencia's house, but was thinking in his mind. After all, he wanted to inquire about the black market, so families with status in the village should know more.
In addition, Tang Ling felt that this village was a little strange.
At this time, it was clearly dusk, and it was time to make dinner. The cattle and sheep had already rushed back to the village, but none of the tents in the village had smoke rising from cooking.
Do they eat raw food? This is obviously impossible! Even primitive people will make fire and barbecue.
Moreover, except for cattle and sheep, no one was seen walking around in the village. The tent of Valencia's family was clearly located near the village. Tang Ling and Valencia almost crossed the entire village, and only two people were met.
One looked like a lonely old man, sitting outside his short and dark tent, while the other was a child, holding a lamb and talking to himself.
In short, it was inexplicably shrouded in a sense of sorrow.
What happened in this village? Tang Ling subconsciously thought this, but he didn't care much. After all, for Babato Village, he was just a passerby.
"Come in quickly, I'll ask Abu to kill a tender sheep, let Eji make his best ashes mutton soup tonight and catch the sheep..." Valencia said happily, while pulling up the curtain of the tent.
Tang Ling was saliva when she heard this, but saw Valencia stunned in front of the door.
"Abu, why is he here?" Valencia's face changed, and she looked very unhappy.
Tang Ling stood behind Valencia and saw four people sitting in the tent of Valencia's house next to the brazier, two middle-aged men and women, one young man and the other old grandmother.
No need to think that the two people who look five points similar to Valencia must be Valencia's parents, and that old lady should be the Am in Valencia's mouth.
As for the young man who looks muscular, it should be the source of Valencia's anger?
Tang Ling felt a little embarrassed, thinking that he would say goodbye now and go to the flock of cattle and sheep for a night? But he couldn't bear to give up milk tea, ashes mutton soup, etc....
"Valencia, you're late. A girl shouldn't have come back so late." The middle-aged man spoke, and at the same time he saw Tang Ling behind Valencia, and couldn't help but raise his eyebrows in surprise: "This little friend behind you?"
"He is my friend." Valencia dragged Tang Ling into the house, and Tang Ling had to smile awkwardly at everyone.
But undoubtedly, Valencia's move slightly annoyed the young man. His eyes looked at Tang Ling suddenly became a little unfriendly.
"Em, this is a very important friend of mine. You go and cook milk tea, okay?" He pulled Tang Ling next to the brazier and asked Tang Ling to sit down. Valencia began to act coquettishly towards the old lady.
"Eji, can I cook an ashes mutton soup tonight? I want to entertain my friends, so I can't make my friends feel that the people in Babato village are not generous enough." Valencia rubbed the middle-aged woman's cheek again.
"Abu, can you kill a young sheep? It's okay for a small one." Valencia took the middle-aged man's hand again.
From beginning to end, Valencia didn't even look at the young man.
However, Tang Ling felt a subtle atmosphere, that is, when talking about killing sheep, the family was really embarrassed. This kind of difficulty was not stingy, but really feeling difficult.
Tang Ling was about to say something, but the young man was already a little angry and said, "Xia, don't be too unprepared. Although the people on the grassland are kind, many of the people coming outside are bad-hearted people. How could you just bring back a man and say he is your friend?"
"Uncle Wimbledon, don't kill sheep easily. What's the situation with everyone in Babato Village now?! Where can I kill sheep?"
Speaking of this, the young man looked directly at Tang Ling: "Friend, Babato Village is not suitable for entertaining guests now. I'll take you out of the village before it's dark."
After saying this, the young man stood up, as if to show off his force to Tang Ling. He deliberately bulged his muscles and made his body look extremely strong under the leather robe.
"Baltu, don't go too far. When is it your turn to make decisions for my guests?" Valencia was very angry.
"Why can't I make the decision? My family is willing to give you a hundred sheep and fifty cows to survive this crisis. And you will become my wife." The man named Bartu was also a little angry. He just couldn't stand Valencia's appearance of maintaining Tang Ling.
