Adventurer of the Elf World

"Okay!" Ryota wasn't interested in the windmill, but it was good to have someone to play with him.

In the first half of the day, Ryota took Xiu around the ranch, and they went into the windmill and warehouse, and finally had lunch at his house.

In the second half of the day, they visited how their family processed wool, which was really novel for Xiu who had never been exposed to it.

Because it was summer, it would be very hot for the Mare sheep to have long hair, so they had to be shaved short regularly, which is why there was not much hair on the Mare sheep outside.

However, the cut wool had to go through a series of processes before it could be sold, and the machine driven by the windmill was a key point.

This can only be said to be the wisdom of the working people.

"If you want to see the scenery, there is a shallow onion lake nearby, which is good, but it may be a bit far." The man said.

"Okay~" Xiu agreed leisurely.

In fact, after getting along with each other, Xiu still felt that Ryota's father was actually nothing special, just taciturn.

But it was this taciturnness that made him look very difficult to get along with.

Here, Ryota led Xiushu to walk on the endless grassland, where the grass was as high as the calf and grew wildly.

The journey was a little far, so the two chatted on the way.

In fact, it was mainly Ryota who was talking, and Xiu was listening, replying to him from time to time.

Some said when his mother was still alive.

Some said when he was playing with his friends.

Or when he picked up some interesting things while herding sheep.

Such things are all very small things, but Ryota laughed happily when he talked about them, and I don’t know why Xiu was also infected by them and laughed unconsciously.

In the previous conversation with Ryota, I learned that their family mainly herded sheep and sold wool.

When his mother was alive, she would knit sweaters, towels and other things to sell in town.

At that time, he also went to see the store, especially in winter when there were many tourists, and the supply was often in short supply.

But later...

Xiu saw that Ryota looked gloomy, so he stopped talking about this topic.

"Look! That's the shallow onion lake." Ryota suddenly became excited and raised his hand to the front.

Xiu looked around and saw the mirror-like lake reflecting the sky, adding a deep blue, giving people a very shocking feeling.

When he got closer, Xiu found that the lake was really big. He couldn't see the edge at a glance, but he could hear the sound of trickling water.

Xiu didn't pretend anymore and released Casey to fly into the air to overlook the entire shallow cong lake.

A lake that was almost oval, Xiu had no idea how big it was.

There were many streams around, the most important of which was the glacier meltwater flowing out of the mountains and finally converging here.

Although I knew there was such a place here before, it was still very surprising now.

In winter, the lake here becomes a natural ice rink after it freezes!

And it can be seen that there is no human involvement in development here, which is simply a waste.

Xiu gathered his spirit and landed on the ground, and Ryota looked at him as if he were worshiping a god, and spoke stumblingly.

"Big brother, you just flew up..."

"It's just with the power of the elves. Many people can do it, and you can do it in the future." Xiu explained casually, then looked at him and asked, "Do you want to try it too~"

"Wuhu~"

…………

When Xiu was about to leave, it was already evening, and Ryota, who had received his father's approval, was reluctantly following Xiu.

"Okay~ Let's go back." Xiu turned around and persuaded, "I'll send you to the mountain."

When Ryota heard this, for some reason, his face fell, he looked up at the shadowy mountains in front of him, and turned to Xiu and asked:

"Will brother come over to play tomorrow~"

"Brother has something to do tomorrow, but I will come here when I am free."

"Okay!" Ryota's little face was almost smiling, and even the sheep next to him was infected by the emotion and jumped twice in excitement.

"Then you go back first, it's getting dark." Xiu raised his hand and covered his head, messing up his hair, but Ryota didn't care, just smiled and looked at Xiu.

After parting with Ryota, Xiu's expression was calm and he continued on his way.

But his attention was obviously not on walking, his eyes were stagnant, he must be thinking about something.

In fact, Xiu could guess a little from today's interaction, Ryota was so afraid of his father not because his father spanked him, but because of his mother.

Ryota was confused by what those people said, although he didn't really think it, but in fact he subconsciously still blamed himself for his mother's death.

This led to a series of emotional derivatives such as guilt and fear.

But his father was still a piece of wood, or maybe he became so dull after his wife died.

The lack of communication between the two led to misunderstandings.

Obviously they cared about each other very much, but this situation happened now.

But it had nothing to do with him... Xiu didn't want to care at first, and he was a little helpless at this moment.

"Ah~" Xiu was useless even if he tried to mediate. He clearly realized that it was all useless.

When he got closer, Xiu found the car of the large group at the foot of the mountain, but it seemed that they did not choose to camp at the foot of the mountain, but on the mountain.

Xiu looked up and couldn't see clearly at first, but after dark he could see some faint light.

It was dark and the road was dangerous, Xiu was too lazy to climb up, and directly asked Casey to fly off the ground.

I don’t know who chose this place to build a camp, whether it is the location or the placement of tents, it is very reasonable, and it can be seen that there is some level.

It was just getting dark at this time, but the camp was very lively, and everyone gathered around the campfire.

Those students were excitedly discussing today’s events, while those researchers were eating honestly.

After all, they have seen such scenes many times, so there is nothing new.

And Xiaogang was also sitting with those students, talking to them about something.

At this time, a figure came out of the darkness and startled Xiaogang. He subconsciously looked over there, but he quickly reacted and got up and walked over.

When the figure entered the range of the campfire, his face was revealed. It was indeed Xiu.

"You are back!" Xiaogang walked over and greeted him.

"You are also a chef~" Xiu looked at his clothes and laughed and teased.

It's really interesting to talk about it. Guard, porter, cook... Xiaogang basically moved wherever he was needed in the team, and basically did everything well.

And he didn't have that kind of arrogant temper. He got along well with people around him, whether they were researchers or students.

No wonder Xiaogang was so popular.
