Lin Shao stood in front of the bumper jujube tree for a while,
He was about to go around,
At this moment..,
He heard a thin voice coming from behind him.
"Are you that, the new messenger?"
Lin Shao turned around as soon as he heard this voice,
He saw a fish with a strange combination of colors and feathered wings flying towards him from not far away,
Then, it stopped not far from Lin Shao,
He asked again, "Is it you?"
"Yes,
It's me,
Lin Shao quickly nodded,
"You're Wen Yao, right?"
"Yes."
Wen Yao's voice was slender,
It was as if it was hanging by a string,
It sized up Lin Shao from head to toe, then said, "My clan had the idea of asking you for help after hearing about the messenger. A few days ago, I heard that the messenger went to the Western Emperor Mountain to help, so I specially went to inquire about it. I just made up my mind to invite you, but I didn't expect the messenger to come."
The system's reaction speed was indeed as sensitive as ever. Lin Shao thought silently in his heart,
He smiled at Wen Yao and said, "Then I came at the right time."
"Then come with me, messenger," Wen Yao said to him. "Our clan is waiting for you."
Lin Shao nodded,
He raised his foot and followed the Wen Yao.
He walked through the path of the fish intestines in the field,
He soon arrived at the river,
This river..,
Was probably the watery river mentioned in the mountain sea map.
Wen Yao also had the habits of fish. They slept in the water at night.
After Lin Shao arrived, he sat on a big rock by the river and looked around at the ray fish clan beside him.
Wen Yao was a very powerful auspicious beast, so it was destined that the clan would not be too big. There were only five Wen Yao in front of Lin Shao. The largest Wen Yao closest to Lin Shao had a different color wings. It was obvious that it was the patriarch.
Because they had all heard of him, Lin Shao skipped the self-introduction and directly talked about the content of his mission, "The mission I received here is that there are thieves in Taiqi Mountain..."
"It's not a thief!"
Wen Yao clan leader interrupted Lin Shao very agitatedly, "That's a bandit!
Bandit! "
From his tone, it could be seen that Wen Yao hated this matter very much.
Lin Shao understood and continued to talk about this topic to understand some basic information.
The vast farmland that Lin Shao saw in Taiqi mountain did not completely belong to the Wen Yao clan.
Although Wen Yao was born with the ability to make crops harvest, which greatly reduced the time and intensity of labor, it still required care.
There was no way five Wen Rays would be enough to take care of such a huge plot of land. Therefore, most of the crops in the farm were planted by the inhabitants of the nearby mountains. Even Luoluo and Ju Fu, whom Lin Tuo had met before, had a plot of land here. These people who had benefited from the Wen Ray's' Harvest Ability 'would then take on the responsibility of taking care of the farm.
The Wen Yao clan liked living in a place like this. Although they also liked to plant crops, their population was too small. After doing this, they achieved their goal and did not waste their ability. They built good relationships with the tribes nearby and collected all kinds of seeds to enrich the farmland in Taiqi mountain. At the same time, the fruits they planted would not go to waste.
Lin Shao concluded that this was probably a large-scale agricultural cooperative.
"As for the thief, he appeared a long time ago," Wen Yao clan leader Wen Yao said to Lin Shao.
Wen Yao clan leader said to Lin Shao, "The timing of its appearance is also irregular. Not only did our clan fail to catch it, but the other tribes who planted the crops here also participated. Now, we don't even know who stole it.
Speaking of which, it's strange. If it can escape our eyes for so long, it must be something powerful. How did it fall to the point where it has to steal food? "
Lin Shao frowned when he heard this. No wonder they were given a longer time than before. It had been a month, and so many tribes had failed to catch it. Lin Shao honestly did not think that he had much hope. He had never caught a thief before.
Because Wen Yao mentioned that it had been stolen two days ago, Lin Shao ran over to take a look. There were no traces near the place where it had been stolen. There were only a lot of claw marks on the ground. It looked like a relatively large animal. Half of the ground had been destroyed. The thief was probably an animal that could fly, so she couldn't find any footprints.
But there were too many large races in the Mountain and Sea Realm that could fly. And from what Lin Shao understood, the thief's motive for stealing was very strange. As Wen Yao said, if the thief was so powerful, why steal? The land in Taiqi mountain was open for cooperation. If the thief had the strength to steal, why not come and take care of the land every few days? Besides, with Wen Yao around, there would not be much work to do, so why steal?
Lin Tuo was puzzled. He followed Wen Yao to wander around the fields of Taiqi Mountain. He saw many races that he had never seen before working in the fields.
Who knew, they might be his future mission targets …
Lin Shao thought silently. He greeted them all politely and asked about the mission. Wen Yao said that the thief had been around for a long time, and that many of the fields had been damaged.
In response to Lin Shao's questions, some of the races looked at Lin Shao curiously. When they saw that Wen Yao was there, they would answer a few questions. There were also some who were more defensive. After Lin Shao asked his questions, not only did they not answer, but they also ran a little farther away and poked their heads out to look at Lin Shao.
But after asking around, he did not get any useful information.
Lin Shao knocked his head. He had no clue. He wondered if he should find some kind of alarm system in the Human Realm that could be used in the Mountain and Sea Realm to catch the thief red-handed. But when he thought about stealing food, it was easy to think of the little taotie.
It was not that he suspected the taotie had something to do with this matter. It was good to ask. It just so happened that the little taotie had not done her daily mission yet. Lin Shao brought today's food to the little taotie.
Because the little taotie had found her father, she had moved from Mount Zhaoyao to Mount Xun. At least, she would not leave for a while.
Lin Shao had a good relationship with the two taoties during this time. When he brought the food, he also talked about Wen Yao's mission.
Maybe the taotie would have some ideas about food.
The little taotie's father heard half of it and interrupted Lin Shao to ask, "You're not … suspecting the taotie, are you?"
Lin Shao quickly shook his head and said, "Of course not. It's just that Bai Ze can't interfere with the mission.
Mount Taiqi is too far from Mount Zhaoyao.??
Sulfuric acid?
Hidden knocks neon close?
Frequency?
Congling ≡ watering??
And Huanhun?
Understanding the heart and the taste of fresh food?
'Smart food and water?'
Relying on the mu to play with the bad guy??
Yue Ci pretending to know?
Choose!
"Oh," Taotie nodded, and then asked doubtfully, "Bai Ze can't interfere with your mission?"
"En."
When Taotie heard Lin Shao's affirmative answer, he lowered his voice and said something to himself. Lin Shao didn't hear it clearly.
"What did you just say?"
"Nothing," Taotie looked up at him. "Then I'll tell you something I know."
"Good."
"Although we taoties love to eat, and I know that some races call us hooligans behind our backs, to be honest, we taoties have restrained ourselves a lot in recent years. I'm also reasonable, especially with regards to the Wen Yao clan. I won't touch the things of this clan."
"What do you mean?"
"Don't look at the Wen Yao clan as small and weak. This clan has a stronger prestige than the Gu Diao clan in the West Mountains …"
"Wait a minute," Lin Shao interjected, "where is the West Mountains?
Isn't the Tai Qi Mountain where Wen Yao lives? "
Taotie paused for a moment, then asked doubtfully, "Bai Ze hasn't told you about this yet?
Maybe it's because your messenger mission has just started, and you don't have enough locations yet, so it might not be intuitive to tell you about it.
Anyway, I'll tell you the whole story. This time, I'll tell you in advance on behalf of Bai Ze. "
He picked up a branch and drew a few lines on the ground. Lin Shao leaned over to take a look and recognized that it was a simplified version of the System's map of the Mountains and Seas.
"There are many mountains in the Mountain and Sea Realm, and they are divided into north, south, east, west, and center.
Mount Zhaoyao, where you met my son, belongs to the South Mountains. Xun Mountain, where you are now, belongs to the East Mountains. The North Mountains belong to the North Mountains. The Middle Mountains are smaller, right in the middle. You probably haven't been there yet.
The Tai Qi Mountain that Wen Yao lives in, the West Emperor Mountain that you went to before, and the Luwu Mountain where Gu Diao lives are all in the West Mountain region. The West Mountain region is densely populated with many tribes, but no one dares to provoke Wen Yao. Although Wen Yao looks weak, he is actually the hidden overlord of the West Mountain region.
As for why, guess. "
Lin Shao thought for a moment, then said, "One word: eat."
"You guessed right." The Taotie nodded. "Wen Yao has the ability to make crops grow, but he is very weak. Possessing such a powerful ability is a crime, and if you're not careful, you'll suffer. But he is very smart.
When the Mountain and Sea Realm first stabilized, there was a shortage of food. Wen Yao didn't hide, but actively cooperated with other races.
They didn't have to work very hard to get ripe food, so of course they were willing. At that time, Wen Yao became the center of public interest in the West Mountains.
Because the plants grown in Taiqi Mountain were better than the wild fruits in all aspects, gradually, almost all the races in the West Mountain area had a piece of land in Taiqi Mountain.
Anyone who dared to touch Wen Yao would incur public anger.
