Chapter 36 Red Sour Fruit

In the quiet forest, Old Moore sat in front of the bonfire, with a look of nostalgia and a joyful smile on his face, telling everyone some stories about the Black Round Cat and the Far Mountain Village.

"So when we met the Black Round Cat, we were not far from the Far Mountain Village. I have never seen the trace of the Black Round Cat once in Tami Village. Far Mountain Village... I'm back."

At the end, Old Moore's voice became very light, as if he was muttering to himself, his eyes were no longer focal. I don't know what he was feeling, maybe this is the feeling of being close to home.

Lehman stared at the direction of the black lynx leaving, as if he was impressed by this creature he had never seen before. He heard that Old Moore had no sound, so he asked Old Moore with a serious face.

"Did you say it will follow us?"

Harry, who was standing beside him, his face changed when he heard Lehman's question, his smile froze on his face, and he twitched the corners of his mouth and answered Lehman's question.

"Black...Black Cats are very revenge. When we meet black cats in the village, they will shout loudly and scare them away..."

Old Moore gradually came to his senses. When he heard Lehman's questions, his face looked a little bad. He took Harry's words and answered Lehman.

"This beast has a strong sense of revenge. Once it hurts it, it will follow you and wait for an opportunity to attack you while you relax your vigilance. Generally, people from the parody rarely provoke it unless you don't spend the night in the forest."

"No wonder I have a feeling that it is still around us."

Old Moore and Lehman looked at each other and nodded with a serious expression. Old Moore smiled bitterly.

"It seems that we two can't rest today. If we only let them watch the night, we will inevitably be touched by the Black Bobcat."

"Then today is the two of us vigil. I will take people to guard the night for the first half of the night. If you take people to guard the second half of the night, you must protect Lord Nord's safety."

"No problem. I never thought that I had been involved in this beast at my doorstep. Things are unpredictable."

Nord had been thinking about what to do for the next trip. It is logical that it is not far from Yuanshanzhai, so we should work harder to find Yuanshanzhai, but now we have been offended by Black Round Cat, so we may not be at peace at night. If we can't find Yuanshanzhai within one or two or three days, everyone will inevitably be dragged down by Black Round Cat in the mountains and forests.

After calculating in his mind, Nord made up his mind, stroked the one-handed Knight Sword straddling his waist with his left hand, looked at Old Moore and Harry calmly, and said in an unrefutable tone:

"In theory, we should go back tomorrow, but since Yuanshanzhai is nearby, we don't have the reason to give up halfway, but because we got into the Black Round Cat, we can't rest well at night, so we will look for two more days, only two days! If we can't find it in two days, we will go back and repair it first and come again next time."

Knowing that Lord Nord was mainly saying this to him, Old Moore sighed and prepared to rest. He had to get up to watch in the second half of the night. Now he must be fully energetic and hopes to find Yuanshanzhai tomorrow.

It was already late at night, and the surrounding mountains and forests were silent, and even the beasts could not hear the screams. However, sitting by the bonfire, Lehman could feel that there was still a creature staring at them in the darkness, waiting for them to relax their vigilance.

The next day, Nord slowly opened his eyes. At the end of the past half month, Nord had adapted to the life of using the sky as his quilt and the ground as his bed. You should know that at the beginning, Nord lay on the damp land and couldn't sleep all night, but now he basically fell asleep.

Looking at Old Moore and Lehman who had just fallen asleep, Nord couldn't help but relax his hands and feet. In the next few days, people would feel uncomfortable in the past two days, unless they could quickly find Yuanshanzhai.

Is it really that easy? Nord couldn't help but miss the satellite positioning in his previous life. If there was that thing, he would probably have eaten meat and drank a lot in Yuanshanzhai. Alas? It seems that there is no such thing as wine in this world. Anyway, Nord had never seen it in Perron before, and he had never heard of it, whether it was beer, white wine or red wine. Isn't that another big business opportunity?

Nord, who got up early, breathed the fresh air and thought about ways to make money in his mind. He could earn countless gold coins every day. He ate a bite of stiff bread and brought Nordra back to reality.

After waking up a little, Nord arranged for the remaining hunters to pack their luggage carefully and not disturb their rest. They can set off when they wake up.

Not long after, Lehman and others woke up one after another. After eating something simply, everyone embarked on the road to continue looking for the far mountain village.

Just as he walked not far, Harry and Old Moore discovered new clues.

Nord and others stood under a fruit tree. This fruit tree looked a little low compared to the tall trees around it, but its torso was very thick and red fruits were hung on the branches. The fruits were a little crystal clear and beautiful, but some of them were a little hollow, as if they were pecked by birds.

"Sir Nord, you see, this is called red sour fruit. It has a lot of moisture and a little sour taste. Some copycat children like to eat it, but they can't resist hunger."

"Is it a fruit that is only available near Yuanshanzhai?"

"Yes, Lord Nord, I have only seen it in Yuanshanzhai. I don't know if there are any other places."

Old Moore introduced to Nord what kind of fruit this was, and Harry climbed up the fruit tree in a few ways, picked a few fruits and sent them to Nord.

"Mr. Nord, try it. My favorite thing to eat is this red sour fruit, sour and sweet. The fruits are the best at this time. It is not as sour as some time ago. I bring some for my children every year when I go out to hunt. The little guy is four or five years old, sour and grinning, haha."

Nord picked up the fruit and looked at it. It turned out to be crystal clear and beautiful. There was a thin red skin on the outside. After peeling it, it was a light green transparent flesh inside. Nord looked at the flesh a little familiar.

When I ate it in my mouth, it was indeed sweet and sour, and the taste was a bit similar to grapes. Nord had a bit of unspeakable meaning in his heart. He was deceived by the appearance of this fruit. This is not a red sour fruit. Is this a big grape? And the taste is better than that of grapes. Due to the arrival of frost season, the sugar inside the fruit gradually accumulates and the fruit becomes sweeter.

"Are there many fruit trees in this way far away?"

"There are not many mountains and villages in the distance, but there are quite a few nearby mountains and forests. This kind of fruit is mainly what children like to eat, so I didn't pay much attention to it."

Nord asked Harry about the situation of the fruit tree. Old Moore also picked up a fruit and looked at the familiar fruit. Old Moore showed a look of nostalgia on his face. He took a bite and was sweet in his heart.

Nord looked at the fruit tree, and there were a few small saplings growing scatteredly. After the fruit fell off, it would have grown naturally on the ground. This means that the fruit tree is not difficult to transplant. People in the mountains do not take it seriously, and it is not necessary to go outside. Don’t use bean bags as dry food.
