Chapter 416 [The River of Hope](2/2)
But Han Ye made strict requirements: this elf sternly warned humans that they would definitely forbidden from cutting down these trees! Even if they accidentally broke a branch, they would get the elves' stern eyes!!
"On this continent, any life is precious! Even the growth of a grass is extremely difficult! It seems to be a forbidden zone for life. These trees are extremely precious things. I allow you to collect leaves because after this season every year, the leaves will naturally wither and fall off, and will grow again in the next year.
But if you break the branches, these trees may not be able to grow these precious 'ship leaves' again in the coming year! As for cutting down these trees, don't even think about it! If anyone dares to do anything randomly, I don't mind throwing him into the river!"
Han Ye's stern warning was fully respected by people in the church such as Tacitus.
The casual sailors and crew members were also harshly warned one by one, so the things that made Han Ye worry didn't happen.
Then Han Ye told another fact, which made everyone very pleased.
"In addition to being able to ferry over rivers as boats, these leaves can be eaten as food. Of course, the taste may be checked and the taste is a bit dry. But it can actually fill the stomach. This has been proven in our elves and orcs - of course, those races that only like to eat meat are not included."
But eat?
The humans were immediately surprised.
Even Lan Lan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief!
In fact, there is really not much food in her storage ring.
After all, after coming to this continent, I didn’t find any people. It was desolate and I couldn’t find any food. Even wild animals were hard to see, so it was very difficult to hunt and obtain food.
Although I caught some sea fish on the beach, I thought that there was still such a long way to go... I am afraid that the food I reserved may not be enough to eat.
After all, the storage ring in Lanlan's hand has not been infinite.
Of course, in order to confirm Han Ye, Tacitus still carefully experimented.
He personally tasted a small piece of this "ship leaf".
I have to say that Han Ye’s evaluation of “the taste is slightly bitter” is really too conservative.
After entering the mouth of this leaf, its tough taste seems to be the most difficult to bite old beef, which is so tough that it is difficult to chew. And if you bite too much, many green juices will flow out - fortunately, they are barely tolerable.
However, the belly won't lie.
This thing really brings a feeling of "fullness". After Tacitus tried it, he ate a meal of leaves. After waiting for a long time, he confirmed this. Eating this kind of boat leaf will indeed bring people exactly the same effect as food: nutrients needed by the human body.
Although it is a little bit unpalatable - but in such a place, you can no longer ask for more.
So, after collecting more than 30 leaves, people collected more than 100 leaves, and all of them were stored in blue storage rings. If they couldn't put them down, they folded them together as boats.
One hundred leaves are already the limit that Han Ye allows them to collect. After all, too many leaves will also damage the vitality of these trees.
But at least, after solving the food hidden dangers, even Tacitus, who was frowning along the way, seemed much more relaxed.
As for Tamsui... the river in front of you has completely solved everyone's worries.
After more than 30 boat leaves were launched, the adventure team ushered in a smooth journey.
For the next twenty days, everyone would rely on these boat leaves to move forward in the water every day.
This river is not a straight line, it will also be winding along the way.
But after getting the warning from Han Ye, everyone would rather endure this kind of winding sailing on the water than no one dared to step onto the shore to walk straight lines and shortcuts.
Especially on several nights, Han Ye told everyone that the area where the river passes through the territory of some powerful monsters...
In the middle of the night, everyone sat on the boat leaves and could clearly hear some strange sounds coming from the land on the shore!
Some of them are like howling wild animals, and the sound is like thunder, with a sense of near suffocation and oppression!
Sometimes, in the middle of the night, someone clearly saw that not far from the riverside, he seemed to see a huge shadow moving slowly!
Judging from the outline of the shadow in the dark night, the size of that monster should be larger than the octopus monster by the sea!!!
It is conceivable that if this team encounters such a huge monster on land, then the outcome can be imagined!
Fortunately, Han Ye’s statement has been confirmed!
Neither the terrifying roars or the terrifyingly large monster outline seen with his own eyes—these things did not approach the river, but were only kept about a hundred meters away.
Along the way, there were no dangers.
Until the twenty-fifth day of sailing on the river...
A mountain can be clearly seen in the distance in front of the river.
This mountain is not too high. If it is in the Roland Empire, it can only be regarded as a small mountain.
This hillside forms a canyon-like terrain.
And in the distance, this river was passing through the canyon...
What excited Tacitus, Lan Lan and others was that they clearly saw that at the entrance of the canyon, there was a platform piled up with stones!
Although it looks simple, it is indeed not a product of nature, but a pile of human resources!
Moreover, from a distance, a faint blue smoke slowly rose in the canyon...
Obviously, after more than a month, we have seen a place with people on this land for the first time!
Or... there are places where higher races gather!!
Looking at the excitement of humans such as Lanlan and Tacitus, Han Ye said in a cold tone: "I don't want to smite your good mood, but I want to remind you! Although the canyon in front is a settlement of multiple races, the owners here have no good feelings for humans."
