Chapter 14 Philas's Journey
Philas, located in the west of the continent of Kalimdo, is an L-shaped wooded valley, full of monsters that want to swallow you as soon as they see you. It extends to the bleak place to the north, the endless sea in the west, and to the northeast to the hinterland of Kalimduo - the thousand-needle stone forest.
According to the remaining memory of the game, Ning Chen went from the northwest of the thousand-needle stone forest to the periphery, and finally determined the direction of Philus in a well-defined place - one side was a rock towering, while the other side was a leafy jungle meadow.
Philas is sparsely populated and there are no important towns. In fact, this is true throughout southern Calimdo.
Ning Chen read "Titan Myth", which is described in this chapter about Philas: 2200 people (35% ogres, 30% Tauren, 20% night elves, 15% Naga). The political system is tribal, and the residents mainly believe in the Holy Light and Shamanism. Here It is rich in mineral resources and produces minerals and timber, which has been competed by tribes such as tribal alliances.
"How much do you know about Kosa?" Yun Danfeng sat gently on Lao Kodo's back. Her body was still very weak. It seemed that the mage could not force her to cast the spell, otherwise the end would be very bleak.
"I don't know much about it. You know, he suddenly sent someone to find me." Ning Chen said.
"Kosa?" Eva didn't know anything about Kosa, and she didn't know anything except that letter.
Ning Chen briefly told Eva before and after the incident, so the two women chattered and launched an imaginative discussion on Kosa's identity.
Filas has a pleasant climate, which is probably related to the lush vegetation here. It seems that environmental protection work is indeed very important. Looking around, it is surrounded by green, and the air is also full of green. It feels very cool to breathe into the lungs.
This is a free land. After crossing a valley all day, Ning Chen saw a bonfire and people flashing from afar. It turned out that there was Moshacher Camp in front of him. Now everyone is hungry and very tired. It is everyone's common wish to enter the camp and repair it well for a night. Because of his previous experiences, Ning Chen was a little worried about whether the tribes of Moshache would accept him.
"I'll find out first. You wait for me here. Don't run around. There are a lot of wolves here." Ning Chen left a shadow burial to protect everyone and walked to the camp alone.
Mosache camp is very open, so that almost no guards are guarding it. This is the settlement of tareans. All the tares wear clothes made of natural animal skins and are busy with their own affairs. Some are peeling, some are roasting, and some are washing clothes in the river. It looks really a piece. Peace, neither the barren Tiris method nor the thousand-needle stone forest could be compared with it before.
Ning Chen stood in a daze at the head of the single wooden bridge leading to the village and was soon found by the people in the village.
"Hey, who is this?" A tall tarew strode from the bridge and greeted Ning Chen with a smile, "Isn't it a young tarew?"
Ning Chen also responded to him with a smile, and then secretly thought about how to speak. It seemed that the other party did not reject him. In fact, he had never understood why the tribal towns wanted to block him.
"That..." Ning Chen moved his lips.
"Do you want to stay overnight?" The tarew laughed. He had seen through Ning Chen's thoughts, "It doesn't matter. Why don't you welcome you?"
"There are still partners...humans." Ning Chen said.
The tauren was stunned and immediately laughed: "We are kind to people, and it's not easy to make enemies."
It's now in Moshacher's camp.
Eva and Yun Danfeng ate fresh pies and fruits and drank sweet cider. They couldn't remember the last time they had such a meal. Ning Chen looked at them and felt very uncomfortable.
The taurodon here treat themselves very enthusiastically, as if they are different from other places. In fact, Ningchen feels strange and inevitable, because Moshacher's Tauren were originally a decivilized tribe. Although they belong to the tribe, they are very independent, hospitable and love nature, such as iron and other high-tech. The skills can't be seen here at all. They use the most primitive tools. All the tools that can be used in nature are the tools in their hands, and they also live in tents made of various animal furs on a wooden pillar.
Although it is relatively backward, people live a very orderly life. In a place far away from the chief, they spontaneously organized a civilian guard to patrol around the village day and night, because it is said that ogres are too rampant here. These big-belli ogres love everything that can be stuffed into their mouths. Food, including taburd.
It is also because they are far away from Thunder Cliff and Ogma that they are far away from the emperor and only do things with sincerity. They are not disgusted with Ning Chen's group, so they enthusiastically treat each other as guests from afar.
"The rainy season is coming soon. Philas in the rainy season is a terrible place." Moshache's village head said flat hoofs.
"Winy season?" Ning Chen said.
"Yes, during the rainy season, the mountain roads are very difficult to walk, especially us tareans..." The flat hooves looked at our hooves with a wry smile, "There are also flash floods, then landslides, and all kinds of disasters. Every year after the rainy season, we have to bury many brothers of nature."
"What's the matter with you here?" The speaker is the son of the flat hoof.
Ning Chen thought for a moment and decided to tell them his intention. Tauren is a kind and generous race, and Ning Chen is never willing to hide his thoughts from people unless he has to.
"Have you ever seen a night elf named Emily in Philas?" Ning Chen asked.
"Night Elf?" Xiaobian's hoof became angry as soon as he heard it, "We are a great tribe. We will kill those obscene alliances when we see them. How many brothers and sisters do they kill!"
"Be quiet, son." The flat hoof pulled his excited son, "Whether it is a tribe or an alliance, they are the children of Mother Earth. In fact, we tamales don't like to fight around the most."
"If not, forget it..." Ning Chen smiled, because it was not good for him to cause conflicts with others.
"I've seen this Emily you mentioned." Suddenly, a young woman who had been accompanying Eva and Yun Danfeng turned around and said.
Everyone's eyes focused on her, and the little flat hoof was even more excited: "Have you seen it? You stupid woman, why didn't you kill her when you saw her?
The young bull-headed woman seemed to be afraid of small flat hoof. After that, Ning Chen knew that she was the daughter-in-law of flat hoof.
"That time, I went into the mountains to collect fruit and was besieged by several ogre. It was Emily who saved me." After saying that, she turned into the tent and took out a notebook. "This is what she dropped. I have always wanted to return it to her, but I have never seen it since."
The language of the tribe and the alliance does not understand, as if the language of man and the beast does not understand. Ning Chen is curious why this woman knew that the elf is Emily. After reading the notebook, he suddenly realized that the notebook uses a brand-new language, which is neither the franca nor the language nor the language of the tauren, not the language of the tauren. Words are not the language of the night elves, but a local word for communication. The notebook says: Emily's travel log.
"When did you see her?" Ning Chen hurriedly asked.
"About three months ago..." she replied.
That night, Ning Chen and his party lived in a tent dedicated to Moshache's hospitality, sleeping on a comfortable animal skin bed, and the girls separated a tent from him.
"Ning Chen, your Emily, will she still be in Philas?" Through the mantle, the light wind and the wind are light and full of worry.
"It should still be there. I think I'll leave to look for it at dawn, but you can't go with me. I'm going to go alone this time." Ning Chen put his hands behind his head and looked at the top of the tent and meditated.
"Why?" Eva, who was impatient, turned over and sat up, "Why? Are you going to leave us behind?"
"Well, how come, you've heard that the woman was almost eaten by the ogre. I think it's safer for you to rent and live in the village for the time being. You can rest assured for the tareans." Ning Chen turned over and said, "Go to bed early. Good night."
The next morning, Ning Chen went on the road alone despite the obstruction of the village head. This time, he didn't even bring Lao Kodo and the shadow burial, but brought some things and weapons for his personal use.
"It's going to be the rainy season!" The village head said.
"It's okay. If it really comes, I will come back as soon as possible." Ning Chen smiled and comforted the kind and hospitable old man.
If you want to find a tall man like Emily, you can't meet it on the road.
Ning Chen went out of the village and continued to walk west. Without two miles, he slanted down the hillside and walked into the jungle.
The climate here is subtropical, and most of the time is humid, warm and rich in rainfall. All kinds of wild animals rushed around in the jungle. The monkeys hung on the tree and looked at Ning Chen, a stranger, vigilantly. Ning Chen used a golden bow as a walking stick to explore the way, for fearing that the tail of a poisonous snake would be bitten. Occasionally, a eagle would fly over his head. It was a bird with a length comparable to a two-legged flying dragon.
There was no path to follow in the jungle. Ning Chen walked and lost his way, and the sky gradually darkened. It was not dark, but dark clouds.
"Alas, is it so unlucky that it will rain as soon as you go out?" Ning Chen sighed and accelerated his feet. He had to walk out of this small forest before the rain and try to get closer to the seaside.
