Chapter 58 The Tent Business
Chapter 58 The Tent Business
The tent brought by Tang Yuan was completely scrapped after three days of use. In the Warcraft Forest where the winter began, the wind was strong at night, and the tent was blown over several times, and finally turned into a pile of rags.Tang Yuan simply collected the monster skins he had hunted these days, treated them roughly, and tried to make a huge tent that everyone could use together.He used only some iron materials on hand to make a skeleton, and tried to use a few mechanisms to ingeniously support them, but it was also able to withstand the wind.
Coulson was very interested in this fresh temporary residence, especially the shrinkable feature, which inspired him a lot.It was rare for Tang Yuan to meet someone who likes to play with machines, so he beckoned Coulson to be his assistant and happily explained to him.
Coulson is conscientious and cautious in doing things, he is simply a perfectionist by nature, and the tent diagram drawn by Tang Yuan has become another more complicated residence under his annotations.Tang Yuan looked at Coulson who was still busy complicating the tent, coughed and said, "Okay, if you do it again, it will almost become a two-story duplex..."
"What is a two-storey duplex building? Is it also a house that can be stretched like this?" Coulson stopped writing in his hand. If he didn't have enough animal skins on hand, he could make more transformations on this basis. .
"...That can't be stretched."
"Really, then you can't move." Coulson showed a regretful expression on his face. He had rarely condensed such a black mist in front of Tang Yuan. Now that he showed such an expression, he looked more like a young man. It's just that his face is too pale.He looked at the design drawing in his hand, carefully stroked every stroke with his fingers, and there was a rare fanaticism in his eyes.
There is no problem with the overall production of the big tent, but there is a problem in sewing. The animal skin is too thick, and Tang Yuan can't fix them together firmly.Coulson easily resolved this point. After listening to Tang Yuan explain the structure diagram of the big tent in detail, he asked a fourth-order spider-shaped monster beside him to help fix the place that needed to be stitched with spider silk.
With the help of Warcraft friends, the new tent was completed very quickly. It is shaped like a yurt, thick and wide enough for everyone to use together.Lindsay gently pushed the tent with its big paws, as if worried that such a big guy would be blown away by the wind, but its worry disappeared after a few pushes, and the big tent was still very strong.
Torrea came back from hunting, put the Thunder Bull on his shoulder aside, and came over to kiss Tang Yuan first, "When I was hunting, I took off my clothes first, washed my hands, and washed off the blood on my face."
Tang Yuan's face was a little hot, and he didn't know whether to praise him for remembering to hunt and take off his clothes first, or to warn him not to kiss indiscriminately.However, the Lei Niu that Torrea caught only had a small opening on its head, and the rest of the body was intact. I'm afraid it was specially brought back with the leather intact for him.
Tang Yuan sighed, and while others were looking at the tent, he kissed back on Torreia's face, which was regarded as a reward after hunting.The handsome young man with short black hair popped out his ears immediately, and shook his head a few times triumphantly, making Tang Yuan want to press him down several times.
"We still need some decorations here, please..." Coulson lowered his head and said to the shadow under his feet. As soon as he spoke, the shadow separated and climbed up the tent.The originally mottled tent turned bone white in an instant, and Coulson's monster friend even drew exquisite patterns on it.If the bright red and blue spider silks on the pattern were not so obviously poisonous, this tent would be a work of art.
Tang Yuan was amazed, and wanted to get closer to take a closer look, but was immediately grabbed by Torreia.Torrea's nose twitched cautiously, slightly vigilant, "It's very poisonous, don't touch it."
Tang Yuan immediately took a step back honestly. Mr. Tang taught him well, and this child knew how to cherish his life since he was a child.
"There is poison on the pattern of the tent, but there is no poison on the surroundings and on the door. It just changes color to deter other carnivorous monsters. Extraordinary"
Tang Yuan nodded, this is similar to the protective color in the animal world, "I'm still wondering why the elements in the surrounding woods fluctuated just now and became stable, probably because the monsters also felt the danger and left?" Tang Yuan saw it Tent, turned to Coulson and said: "Your friends are amazing, they did it quickly and well. Is it a poisonous monster?"
Coulson nodded, and said flatly: "Yes, the fourth-order phosphorescent spider." This kind of little thing is rarely kept by people, because it is highly poisonous and does not please humans.
"Fourth level? It's amazing. I've seen this spider beast in a book. It's very difficult to advance... I have some medicine dregs that I refined when making potions. Although the energy is very strong, it has never been destroyed because of the toxin Use it, do you think it needs it? Most of the animals that use poison in our hometown will find food for themselves, I don’t know if your friend likes it or not..." Tang Yuan took out the ring for a long time, and found out a half The big glass bottle was handed to Coulson, after thinking for a while, he found a handful of plants and gave it to him, saying: "These are poisonous herbs that I found in the World of Warcraft Forest before, and the toxin content of these few is still high." That’s right, if you mix the medicinal residues with this herb, the effect will be doubled.”
Coulson was a little surprised, it took a while to accept the herb handed over by Tang Yuan, and thanked him softly.He handed the herb to a dark place behind him, and let the black mist slowly engulf the small handful of emerald green herbs. Seeing the most dense shadow dancing happily behind him, Coulson's eyes also felt a little warmer .He whispered to Tang Yuan: "It likes it very much, and I want to thank you for it."
Tang Yuan squatted down and said to the particularly lively black mist, "You're welcome, without your help, the tent would not have been completed so quickly." After speaking, he found an umbrella from the ring and handed it to Ke Ersen said, "You also helped a lot with this tent, and this is for you."
The structure of the umbrella is similar to the principle used by Tang Yuan to support the tent, but it is more delicate. Coulson couldn't put it down when he took it.The black mist behind Coulson timidly climbed up to his shoulders, twisted a few times where Tang Yuan could see, bent into a few hairy slender legs, gestured cheerfully in the void twice, and shyly Shrunk back.
Coulson helped to translate, "It said that the herbs you gave are very precious, and if there is still work to mend, I am willing to help." After a pause, he said, "I will also have some, Tang Yuan, very much Thank you for giving me such a precious gift, if you need anything, please feel free to ask." Coulson's eyes did not waver in the slightest, he was sincerely grateful to Tang Yuan for teaching him these strange "alchemy", which For a mad alchemist, nothing can convince him more than anything else.
Looking at Coulson, Tang Yuan suddenly remembered a sentence Za Mao said at the auction. Za Mao said that this person was very clean, without a trace of fishy smell, and now it seems that this is really the case.Tang Yuan rubbed his nose and said with a smile: "You have done a good job as a housekeeper. If possible, I hope you can continue to help me with the sale of medicines in the future. I can't ask for so many gold coins from the auction house. .”
Coulson readily agreed, "Of course, my allegiance belongs to you. And I can learn so many new alchemy techniques, I am willing to follow in your footsteps." Coulson's eyes fell on the light folding umbrella in his hand Going up, he looked at the tent that had just been built, his eyes sparkled, and his usually pale face turned rosy.
Tang Yuan felt that if this guy stripped off the cloak covered in black mist, his slightly sharp and mean mouth, and the means to extort money, he would be an out-and-out scientific research madman.
"If you disassemble the animal skin and replace it with a thin material, then you will lose about 3 gold coins. Well, in summer, if you use thin leaves of broad-leaved trees and bone bamboo as materials, the price will save 4 gold coins and 28 silver coins... Coulson in the black cloak muttered while looking at the tent in front of him, his eyes getting brighter and brighter.
Tang Yuan's ears twitched, and the way he looked at the cloak began to change. He couldn't just rely on Lindsay's "food" to prepare for his travel expenses. This tent might be able to make good use of it. "Kolson, is there any place where it rains all year round? In places where it rains a lot, we may be able to sell lightweight tents and umbrellas to the mercenary group."
"I once stayed in Aika City for a while, where it often rained, and every time it rained, some people would get sick. The rain seemed not to be clean. But the number of Warcraft over there was relatively small, and most of the residents were planting crops... ..."
"Then, in addition to umbrellas, we can also make some raincoats for sale, like this." Tang Yuan roughly drew on the paper, "It's very thin, much thinner than the material of the umbrella just now, transparent, and easy to carry , people can wear it to work, it does not affect the movement. What do you think?"
"Yes! People over there are used to wearing clothes made of thick palm leaves, which are very heavy and not suitable for activities." Coulson nodded in agreement and provided more favorable information to Tang Yuan. "There is another special product over there, the green frog. Although it is not a magical beast, it has delicious meat and only comes out when it rains, so the price has always been expensive. With umbrellas and raincoats, it will be much easier to catch green frogs. I think a lot Everyone is happy to buy one."
Countless gold coins and large strings of gemstone frog spar flashed before Tang Yuan's eyes. He swallowed hard and continued to discuss the rain gear issue with Coulson.Comrade Tang Yuan's enthusiasm was completely mobilized as it was about the travel expenses to go home!
With a large tent, several people don't have to bother to find a place to stay overnight to keep out the wind, and the time for traveling is also much faster.On the way, besides talking about ways to get rich with Coulson, Tang Yuan also studied with him some common plants that do not contain magical elements.Coulson is much higher than Tang Yuan in plant research. He is a leading alchemist, so he naturally has his own set of theories about potions, and this theory is somewhat consistent with Tang Yuan's.
The two generally believe that it is not the magic plants that are the most useful plants. Often, ordinary plants are mixed into the potion, which will increase the efficacy of the magic plants inside by several times.And there are some common plants that cannot be underestimated.They don't show mountains and dews, but once they are accidentally touched, they will suffer a lot.Some have pungent gas, some are corrosive like gastric juice, and some even gradually paralyze the mind and dissolve the mental power in the body.
After getting in touch with Tang Yuan along the way, Coulson almost hated seeing Tang Yuan. Sometimes he would listen attentively, and sometimes he would frown and argue a few words, but the most common thing was that the two copied each other's plant notes.After Tang Yuan came to this continent, because he encountered many plants similar to the previous world, he wrote them down in a small notebook, and some even drew pictures.Coulson, on the other hand, is an alchemist madman, so he naturally has a thick notebook, and the two discuss and extract each other's notebooks, and their relationship rises rapidly.
Well, it almost annoyed Torreia.
The black Benlei Beast was lying on the side of the fire, gnawing on a large piece of grilled ribs without interest, and kept looking at the two people who were still pointing at each other's notes and arguing, one of them It's his Phantom Beast Master.It would have been great if I hadn't said that at the beginning. There were two more servants, one would rob Tang Yuan from him, and the other would just keep gnawing on the spar. It was really boring.
Torreia flicked his tail lonely, somewhat looking forward to Tang Yuan using that wonderfully scented shower gel again, that cool, magical fragrance that makes him almost intoxicated, it is really wonderful.
The tent was big enough for everyone to divide their territory. Lindsay habitually occupied one third of the outside alone, snoring heavily, but her ears were always on the ground vigilantly.Coulson slept alone in a corner wrapped in a blanket, but there was always a thick, indissoluble shadow behind him. I don't know which monster was secretly guarding him tonight.
Tang Yuan chose the innermost position and slept the most soundly. With Torreia by his side, there was nothing to worry about at all.Tang Yuan hugged the blanket in the middle of the night and murmured something in his sleep from time to time. As soon as he made a sound, Torrea, who had turned back into a beast form behind him, held him closer to him, rubbed his head lightly, and continued to let him cuddle up to him fall asleep.
It is getting closer and closer to the Snow Country, and the weather is getting colder and colder. Recently, there have even been a few sporadic snowfalls.Tang Yuan took out sleeping bags for everyone to use early in the morning, but Lindsay and Torrea both have thick fur, so they don't matter even outside the tent, and only two humans, Tang Yuan and Coulson, need to keep warm.Coulson signed a contract of sale with Tang Yuan, and the relationship between the two of them has recently deepened. Whatever Tang Yuan gave him, he obediently took it over and used it.Coulson found that Tang Yuan possessed many strange things, and frequent contact was very inspiring to him.
For some unknown reason, Lindsay also took a sleeping bag in her mouth, ran to her sleeping place with a flick of her tail, put it down, and lay down on it to rest generously.
Tang Yuan still had the last sleeping bag in his hand, looking at the expectant eyes of the Ben Lei Beast beside him, he hesitated and said, "How about giving this to you?"
The black Benlei Beast shook its head, turned into a cub on the spot, opened a pair of red eyes, and said expectantly: "Tang Yuan, let's sleep together."
Tang Yuan nodded, "Yes, but you must maintain this size all night, and you are absolutely not allowed to transform into a human form."
Little Ben Lei Beast flicked its tail, but still couldn't match the expectation in its heart, "Okay."
Tang Yuan looked at the little thing occupying his chest, held back a smile, opened the mouth of the sleeping bag slightly wider, and said to it in a low voice: "It's so stuffy inside, stick your head out a little..."
The little Ben Lei Beast obediently jumped up a little bit, licked Tang Yuan's chin with its soft tongue, and let out a soft cry.
"Hey, Torreya, you're an adult, are you still acting like a baby?" Tang Yuan couldn't avoid it, his face was licked with saliva, and he couldn't laugh or cry.
"Tang Yuan hasn't talked to me recently." The little tongue licked Tang Yuan's mouth and asked bluntly. "Do not you feel lonely?"
...Is it because you are lonely? !Tang Yuan muttered in his heart, but he couldn't sleep because of being licked by the little Benlei beast all the time, so he could only admit that he was "so lonely", and was only allowed to sleep after being comforted by the little Benlei beast's love.
"Torrea, don't...get bigger..." Tang Yuan's eyelids were clenched, and he didn't forget to remind the cub in his arms before going to sleep.
The response he got was a soft snort, his little head got into his clothes unconvinced, and a few fangs bit him through the thin layer of vest.But he was not willing to use his strength, and just touched the skin, it turned into licking again.
In the middle of the night, Torreya still couldn't hold on, got out of Tang Yuan's sleeping bag, and turned back into an adult Benlei beast.It put the person in the sleeping bag under its belly, trying to warm the shivering person inside as much as possible.Tang Yuan fell into a drowsy sleep, turned his face sideways and muttered habitually, his cheek was immediately licked by the familiar and soft tip of his tongue, and he was rubbed twice by the way, as if to comfort him.
"Torrea..."
Tang Yuan muttered something in a low voice, and fell back into a deep sleep.He had a dream that they arrived in the Snow Country, the snow fell silently all over the sky, and the weather was so cold that people's bones ached, but he could hug the phantom beast beside him to warm him as soon as he turned over.
The black Ben Lei Beast slightly opened its red eyes, and with a hint of a smile, it moved closer to Tang Yuan and licked his cheek affectionately.Although I don't know what kind of dream Tang Yuan had, but the bursts of needs-like emotions in the contract still make it very useful.
