Chapter 60: Xiaotuo's Desire
"Why can't these wild ducks fly yet..."
Xiao Tuo said boredly while sitting on the hillside and looking at the wild beach with ripples below.
He quietly watched the ducks below gradually growing from immature to green, wondering what was going on in his mind.
He was a child from the mountains, and the mountain road from his home to the nearest town was dozens of kilometers long.
The mountain road is long, and I don’t know how many generations of mountain people’s backpacks and sweat are flowing on it.
It is closer if you walk along the Lengshui Creek at the foot of the mountain.
But there were many snakes and insects over there, and there were even more rolling rocks on the cliff.
No one has walked there since a long time ago.
Xiao Tuo’s childhood memories are of spending time in these mountains.
The irresistible frost and the firewood that blackened people’s faces are Xiao Tuo’s most profound memories from his childhood.
Fortunately, in recent years, the mountain roads in the village have been hardened into concrete roads.
The mountains are not like the outside world, where there are always so many people of the same age.
What's more, after Xiaotuo grew up to a certain age, he also started help with some chores at home.
For example, Xiao Tuo has experienced feeding cows and cutting grass for pigs, which are jobs that many children from the mountains will come into contact with.
Maybe because he stayed in the mountains for a long time when he was a child, Xiao Tuo is not so afraid of the deep mountains and dense forests.
This is a wild lake in the mountains behind his home where he had fished before.
Now, he just feels that this place is quiet...
When he got home, his father would always talk to him about studying.
His foundation is not very good and it is difficult for him to keep up with the kids in the city.
But maybe it’s because of talent, or maybe hard work doesn’t always go in vain.
The year before last, he was admitted to the best junior high school in the area.
This year, he will face the last chasm...
It is to take your first tender step towards the vast world outside.
Or maybe they will fail and return to the mountains...
To be honest, although he is young, Xiaotuo understands his father.
He was just not good at expressing himself, and that was generally the case with people in the mountains.
He, too...
“Boom…”
“Boom…”
Xiao Tuo picked up a piece of stone from the ground and threw it out with great skill!
With hormones flying around, who wouldn’t feel a little excited during this period?
But most of the time, they are just throbbing...
“Chirp, chirp!”
The adult wild duck let out a sharp cry and quickly left the wild beach with its ducklings.
Judging from the speed at which the ducklings were running, Xiao Tuo knew that they would be able to fly soon.
Maybe when he returns from the exam in the city, he will be able to see flocks of ducks flapping their wings.
Of course, it could just be duck poop all over the floor.
These clever guys may not stay here long.
What's more, as far as Xiaotuo knew, there were many wild pools deep in the mountains.
Although it may not be as big as the lake here, it is big enough for these guys to find food.
Xiao Tuo shook his head and turned away.
Perhaps he was a little envious of the peaceful life of these guys whose brains were no bigger than walnuts.
But if you think about it carefully, it doesn't seem very interesting to have to dig into the mud and water every day to catch fish and shrimp...
Not long after Xiao Tuo left, a smudge of orange touched the wild beach...
…
…
A flock of ducks?
Yi Chun looked at the chattering guys in front of him, feeling a little puzzled.
He was fully prepared mentally, thinking that there would be a fierce battle after entering.
As a result, Yi Chun was a little confused when he saw a group of wild ducks...
At this moment, new prompts began to appear in front of Yi Chun:
"A character has been detected entering the dungeon: Obstacles in the Sky. Relevant achievement information is being read..."
"Read successful, the replica has the following achievements:
1. Obstacles in the sky (first achievement):
Assist relevant units to complete flights and related fate events.
Achievement Reward: Eagle Soars into the Sky
2. Wild Duck Eliminator
3. Redemption in Snake Bay
4. Phantom of the Mountain
5. The unknown in the dark
…
…
”
Yi Chun looked at the wild ducks in front of him and realized that it was not time yet.
These seemingly ordinary guys seem to play a very important role in this copy.
As a wild copy with a recommended level of 3-10, Yi Chun felt that these wild ducks should not be that simple.
But he observed the wild beach for a long time and still didn't find anything special.
Yi Chun wagged his tail and thought to himself:
If he used the bloodthirsty beast's innate ability, he could easily get rid of the group of wild ducks.
However, we have to wait until the relevant event time.
This gave Yi Chun a familiar feeling.
It seems that this is a similar rhythm among old cats.
Yi Chun didn't know what kind of feeling this was, but it seemed quite subtle...
This should be one of the key scenes in this copy.
However, according to current information, the so-called destiny event has not been triggered yet.
This time, as a copy with hunting attributes, Yi Chun doesn't have to slack off like he did in the old cat copy.
However, the challenge of this dungeon seems to be a bit too difficult...
Yi Chun looked at the achievements whose names seemed to be off.
This copy scene seems to have some dangerous existence.
The feedback from the surrounding natural forces also gave Yi Chun some feelings:
Compared to the natural forces of the Adventure Gate world that Federation and Yi Chun had visited before, the natural forces here had a certain stagnant and cold feeling.
It’s as if there is some distant power in nature.
Yi Chun thought about it and decided to explore the area first...
…
…
This mountain area was much more desolate than Yi Chun had imagined.
Maybe it’s because of the soil, most of the trees on the mountain are not very tall.
The air was a little stuffy, and the insects nearby were howling loudly.
The composition of the smell in the air is quite complex.
In addition to traces of human activity, Yi Chun also smelled a dangerous stench.
It was not a wild boar, but another large beast: a bear!
A hint of vigilance appeared in Yi Chun's eyes. He knew how dangerous bears were.
In particular, he wondered if the bears here were the same as the ones he knew.
Compared to the stuffy smell of wild boars, the smell of bears is quite different.
Of course, it also has something to do with their living habits.
Yi Chun found it a little strange because bears usually live away from people.
But if there is some overlap between the two lives, encounter is inevitable.
In order to protect themselves from bears, people living here would certainly carry some powerful weapons.
For example, firearms, muskets, etc.
Although Yi Chun felt that no one would be so cruel as to shoot a ginger cat when seeing it.
But sometimes, it’s hard to say…
Yi Chun glanced down.
Maybe he's been eating and drinking too much recently, or maybe his orange cat form is still developing.
All in all, he seems to have gained some weight in his orange cat form.
Well, horizontal development is also development...
