After learning that these guests were about to leave, Kalama Harang, under White Deer's lead, gave a big gift to the girl who had studied with him for a while.
It was a rather crude turtledove zither. However, it was made from the wood of the World Tree, which had been used to create the body of the zither. It was very hard and could be used as a hammer to smash a fully armed knight. The zither wouldn't break.
"If you accept this, you will be a member of the Turtledove Alliance. In the future, if you need help in your journey to the Lost Land, you can ask for help according to the method I told you. Of course, I also hope that you can help your companions who ask for help. "
The girl looked at the zither in her hand, flattered. Although it was rough, it didn't have any sharp thorns. It was just that the texture of the wood made it look a little crooked. Halloumi said, "Can I accept this? Can I still join the alliance? "
"Of course. With the High Seat's approval, no one is more qualified than you. "Kalama Harang said, while Bai Lu grinned from the side.
Strictly speaking, joining the Turtledove Alliance wasn't difficult, but most of them would only become outer members. The test to become a core member of the non-wood elves was very complicated. A wood elf had to be willing to vouch for them, how long they had to be observed, and so on. After going through a series of tests and observations, they also needed the approval of at least one High Seat to become a core member of the alliance.
However, becoming a core member didn't bring any substantial benefits. In addition, all the tests and observations were carried out all the time after every member joined the team. So, for those who became a core member of the alliance, it was closer to the truth that they were recognized by a certain World Tree. This wasn't a big deal.
So, with Wadwo's nod and the gift of a World Tree turtledove zither, Halloumi could be considered a core member of the alliance.
This wasn't over yet, because she was playing with a group of lawless wood elves, she had more or less been infected by their habits. Halloumi knew that the zither in her hand was very precious, but she didn't cherish it too much. She turned around and handed the turtledove zither to her elder sister, asking if it could be magically altered.
This was a good question.
Wadwo and Kalama Harang could swear that they saw the skeleton smile. It was very strange. The skeleton had no muscles and no expression, but they could see a smile. But they really thought they saw it.
Fen did not disassemble the Turtledove Zither at the first moment. She knew that this was not what Hallumi wanted to see. However, it wasn't easy to decide which modifications to make.
It was true that the material of the World Tree was precious, but it was also known that it was difficult to use it on magical items. Instead, many people would directly make it into a warrior's weapon, relying on its toughness. Therefore, he had to think carefully about how to modify Hallumi's zither. She just proudly grabbed the turtledove zither with both hands, laughing as she left.
Sun Spring, under the Tree of World.
Compared to the Moon Spring, which was used to make privately brewed fruit wine, the Sun Spring didn't have any ferocious carnivorous fish living in it because it was a hot spring. Being in the area covered by the World Tree, the spring water was produced according to its power. Soaking here not only cured all kinds of diseases, it also had the effect of strengthening the body.
Wadwo didn't restrict any wood elves from coming here to heal their wounds or even bathe. There were no restrictions here, and there was no difference between men and women. It sounded like it was easy for some happy and blissful image to appear. However, considering that there was a super large and conscious monitor next to it, not many people would talk about sex in such a place.
As an honored guest of the tribe, Lin often visited the Sun Spring. It wasn't that he wanted to meet any naked wood elf girl, but it was purely because soaking in the hot water helped his mind become more active. And now that his research was coming to an end, the lazy him often came here to soak in the hot water. Other than reminiscing about the pleasant times in the Tower of the Great Sage, he also came here to relax.
However, there were already guests in the Sun Spring today. If it was in the past, he might have met Fen who came here to take a bath. However, ever since she became a skeleton, she preferred to let the two girls hold the brush. Sometimes, she would hold the brush herself and scrub the bones one by one.
In the dense fog, as he got closer and closer, the figure gradually became clearer. It was a human Sword Saint, William Greco, with his hands spread out and his silver hair coiled on top of his head.
Men could be said to be the most frequent bathing buddies. No one would be shy. After brushing their bodies, they soaked in the hot water. And ever since William came to the tribe, he came to report every day. He was also the person Lin met the most.
"You're already one step ahead of me." After greeting him, Lin also entered the hot water. At this moment, William removed the cloth covering his face. When he saw who it was, he greeted him warmly, "You're here too. The method you introduced is really good. I don't want to leave. "
The first time they met at the Sun Spring, this Sword Saint had let his long hair spread out on the water. Of course, it took a lot of time to tidy it up afterwards. Lin taught him how to coil his hair first so that it would be easier to tidy it up afterwards. Then, he used a towel to soak it in the hot water and cover his face or head. The sour feeling of being attacked by the hot water was indescribable.
After chatting for the past few days, Lin felt that although this person was narcissistic, his personality wasn't bad. Although he liked to talk to himself and didn't listen to other people's opinions, he was much better than the people on the internet who were only jealous for the sake of jealousy. When it came to the parts he was interested in, William would be patient and listen to other people's opinions.
At least when someone recommended a more comfortable way to soak in the hot water, William didn't mind trying it. And he became a customer after trying it. He was full of praise for it. But Lin frowned and said, "If you're satisfied with this, then your pursuit of life is too shallow. What a pity. "
"Oh, such a comfortable life can be further improved?"
"Of course, if there's a small bottle of wine at this time, then it can be called perfect."
"You want wine? Do you need me to get some Moon Spring Water? " Although he had a lazy personality, in the pursuit of taste and life, William Greco didn't hesitate to work his hands and feet. He only coveted some better enjoyment.
But Lin shook his head regretfully and said, "Moon Spring Water won't do."
"Oh, there's wine more delicious than Moon Spring Water?"
"That's not it." Lin recalled the wine he had drunk and said seriously, "Moon Spring Water is considered a good wine among the wines I've drunk. But fruit wine is suitable to be drunk chilled. It emphasizes the cooling feeling and is not suitable to be drunk warm. Soaking in such a comfortable hot spring, paired with warm wine, the comfortable feeling from top to bottom, from inside to outside is truly wonderful. "
"Is there wine suitable to be drunk warm?" Hearing such a comment, William Greco's heart was also scratched.
"Strictly speaking, it should be said that most of the wine brewed with rice as the raw material is suitable to be drunk warm. What a pity, I've left my hometown for so long. I don't know where I can find warm rice wine or even eat a mouthful of rice again. "The staple food in the mystical land was wheat-based pasta, as well as potatoes and all kinds of beans. A bowl of white rice could be said to be someone's most extravagant wish now.
"Oh, your hometown is from the Far East. You've really left a long way to come to the Basque region. "William scooped up some spring water and patted his face. He also inadvertently said information that Lin Yi didn't expect.
Rice really existed in the mystical land? What kind of place was the Far East? It was the first time he had heard such a term. After coming to the mystical land, not only had he not heard anyone mention it, but he also hadn't seen any related records in any documents. But this white Sword Saint didn't seem like someone who would speak without thinking. What he said should be credible. Maybe he should go and see.
The two soaked in the spring water and chatted for a while. Of course, this was the standard operation of bragging to each other. William Greco talked about the wonderful life he had experienced in various places, as well as the various beautiful scenery he had seen.
Sitting on a small hill in the prairie, he watched the setting sun with the returning sheep as the background and drank the horse milk wine of the herdsmen. Or in the late winter, he wore a white fox fur and sat alone in the pine forest. The moonlight at night would pass through the sparse pine branches and sprinkle on his feet and knees.
Compared to the personal experience of this traveling Sword Saint, Lin's actual life was much more monotonous. But it couldn't hide how terrifying the places he came to were. In the era of information explosion, a true scholar could know everything in the world without going out. And with the development of the Internet and TV travel programs, the beautiful scenery of the world was more than enough for people sitting at home. So when it came to bragging, a certain someone didn't care at all.
The loneliness of the Himalayas, the magnificence of the glaciers, the wonder of exploring the source of the great river, and the heroism of crossing the wilderness alone. Sometimes it was traveling with companions, and the joy of sharing was far more satisfying than enjoying it alone. Sometimes it was enjoying the solitude, standing alone in the wilderness, shouting to the vast world in all directions.
Of course, no matter how much he bragged, a certain someone was very careful not to brag in the direction of his wife and children. Although it wasn't a time of war, there was no need to raise a flag for himself. It wasn't easy to have some hope of going home, but he was in a hurry to court death. This would be a waste of his research on a hundred ways for children to court death.
But no matter how much he bragged or how much he took a bath, there would be an end. William Greco seemed to have lost interest. He got up and prepared to leave. He didn't forget to say to a certain someone, "If there's a chance, I'll definitely go find the rice wine you mentioned, then return to the Wood Elf tribe and enjoy the taste you mentioned."
"Haha, it doesn't have to be the Wood Elf tribe. Aren't there hot springs in other places? "
"There are, but there's always some trouble. If it's not occupied by others, it's deep in the mountains and forests, surrounded by magical beasts. It's impossible to take a bath in peace. It's precisely because of this that I'm on good terms with the Wood Elves, just for such simple enjoyment. "
In response to this Sword Saint's honest words, Lin Feng chuckled and said, "Then you can just stay here forever."
