Beast Summoner

Chapter 1289 The old man in the forest

Li Zhenbang wandered around Yunmengze for three days, but Tigel did not look for him this time. He must have really lost his way, and he was completely lost in Yunmengze.

If Li Zhenbang's mental power was the same as before, maybe it wouldn't be like this, but now Li Zhenbang has neither mental power nor a way to contact the acquired bag, so he can only rely on himself.

Yunmengze is shrouded in clouds and mist, making it difficult to tell the difference between east, west and north. Logically speaking, such an environment should breed a lot of monsters, but in fact, except for some poisonous snakes and beasts, there are no monsters here.

Of course, it may also be because Li Zhenbang did not go deep into Yunmengze and always just wandered around the edge of Yunmengze.

Fortunately, the space ring is still usable, and there is still some food in it. Although it is not too much, it does not make Li Zhenbang survive by eating grass roots and tree bark.

Li Zhenbang was secretly glad that for the sake of convenience, he never let Fatty out after leaving Haifeng City. If he and Fatty both came here, it would be really lively. I'm afraid he wouldn't even be able to eat grass roots and bark.

.

He was not worried that Xiaopang would get hungry in the acquired bag because the energy in the acquired bag was sufficient, and when he was in Yongshou City, he bought a lot of food and ingredients and put them in the acquired bag.

Even if there is no Fatty, he will buy a lot of food and ingredients and store them in the bag the day after tomorrow. There are so many contracted summoned beasts that Li Zhenbang needs to feed, and some of them have bigger appetites than Fatty. In fact, it is not easy for him.

During the few days he lived in Yunmengze, Li Zhenbang did not find nothing. He unearthed many herbs of considerable vintage.

Although none of these herbs can nourish the soul, many of them are helpful for his physical recovery.

Li Zhenbang stuffed a red fruit into his mouth and chewed it. The juice of the red fruit flowed out from the corners of Li Zhenbang's mouth.

Ripe red fruit is a fiery red fruit. It is not only sweet and sour, but also has sufficient juice. It can be used to satisfy hunger and thirst, and the energy contained in it can also be used to replenish physical strength.

Unripe red fruits cannot be eaten. Not only are they sour and unpalatable, they are also poisonous. In mild cases, the body will be paralyzed for a period of time, in severe cases, diarrhea, vomiting, and even hallucinations may occur.

Ripe red fruits are easy to distinguish from unripe red fruits. Ripe red fruits are red in color and very elastic when pinched, while unripe red fruits are green in color and are as hard as walnut skins.

Plants like red fruits are actually not uncommon in the wild, but mature red fruits are rare. One is because wild beasts or monsters also eat red fruits, and the other is that mercenaries adventuring in the wild will be surprised when they see ripe red fruits.

Pick it to eat or store it.

Although the red fruits here cannot be said to be everywhere, it is still no problem to find two or three ripe red fruits within a thousand meters. It is probably related to the fact that few people come here. After all, the locals are not willing to set foot here.

"Huh? What does it smell like? It smells so good!" Just as Li Zhenbang was walking and groping, he suddenly smelled a scent.

After smelling this fragrance, Li Zhenbang felt that the red fruit that he had tasted with gusto just now suddenly became tasteless.

Li Zhenbang followed the scent carefully and saw a courtyard surrounded by a wooden fence not far ahead.

Li Zhenbang got closer and found that there was a small wooden house in the courtyard. The chimney of the wooden house was smoking, and the scent was coming from the wooden house.

"Huh? I didn't expect that there would be people living here. Are you ready for dinner?" Li Zhenbang licked his lips and his stomach growled unsatisfactorily. He hadn't had a serious meal in several days.

If this had been done in the past, there would have been no problem even if he didn't eat for a few days, or even if he didn't take in water or rice for half a month, but now Li Zhenbang is almost like an ordinary person, except that his body is stronger than ordinary people.

Although Li Zhenbang's index finger moved when he smelled the fragrance, he did not dare to push the door open easily.

Yunmengze was not an ordinary place to begin with. He hadn't even seen an exploring mercenary in the past few days, but a house suddenly appeared. There might even be people living in the house. How could he be careless?

Just when Li Zhenbang was hesitating to go in outside the door, a voice suddenly came from the wooden house, "Why linger outside the door? I am preparing to eat, why don't you come in and taste my craftsmanship?"

There was no hostility in the voice, and it sounded very kind, giving people a feeling of spring breeze, as if the person in the wooden house was chatting with an acquaintance.

After all, Li Zhenbang is a person who has seen strong winds and waves. Although he has almost no abilities now and does not know whether the people in the wooden house are friends or foes, but since the other party has already sent out an invitation, if he refuses or evades, he will fall behind.

As the saying goes, when soldiers come, they will be covered by water and earth. It is hard to see a living person these days. No matter whether the person in the wooden house is an enemy, a friend, or simply a passerby, he always wants to meet him, even if it is just for a few words.

The sentence is also good.

"Since the master has kindly invited me, it would be unreasonable if I don't go in. What's more, I'm really hungry, so it's better to be respectful than to obey!" Li Zhenbang laughed, pushed open the courtyard door, and walked into the courtyard without any traces.

After hesitation, he directly pushed open the wooden door of the wooden house and walked into the wooden house.

Although Li Zhenbang entered the wooden house carelessly, in fact he was always vigilant. If the people in the wooden house tried to harm him, he would never stay.

The inside of the wooden house is not as foggy as the outside. The furnishings inside the house are relatively simple, and they are basically made from local materials.

Both the tables, chairs and beds are made from the big trees outside, and even the cups on the table are carved from wood.

There was only an old man with gray hair next to the table, who seemed to be a human. The wooden wall was covered with various animal skins, which seemed to be used to protect against cold and moisture.

The old man looked at Li Zhenbang with a smile, "I haven't seen a stranger for a long time, but meeting each other is fate. You must be hungry too, right? Come and have something to eat with me, an old man?"

"The kid is indeed a little hungry, so I won't be polite!" Li Zhenbang said, walked to the table and sat down on the wooden chair opposite the old man.

"Old sir, do you have any bowls and chopsticks to use?" Li Zhenbang glanced at the not exquisite but fragrant food on the table, couldn't help but licked his lips, then raised his head and looked at the old man and asked with a smile.

The aroma of the food was indeed similar to what he smelled, but the aroma in the room was even stronger. Just smelling it made him feel relaxed and happy.

"I'm really sorry. I'm the only one who lives here all year round, so I only have one pair of bowls and chopsticks. My pair of bowls and chopsticks haven't been moved yet, why don't you use them first?" the old man said, pointing the bowls and chopsticks in front of him towards Li Zhenbang's.

The direction was pushed forward.

"Old sir, isn't this good? As the host, I, the guest, have taken away your job before you have eaten. This is a bit unreasonable." Although Li Zhenbang spoke beautifully, his eyes never left the table.

of food, and even swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

"It doesn't matter. As an old man, I eat less. It doesn't matter if I skip one meal. I can't neglect my guests!" the old man said with a smile.

"Then I won't be polite!" Li Zhenbang took the bowl and chopsticks with a smile, and started to eat hungrily without any hesitation.

The old man smiled and picked up the wooden wine glass on the table, took a sip, and then looked at Li Zhenbang with a happy face...

"Old sir, I'm really sorry for eating all your food. It's mainly because it's so delicious that I really couldn't take it anymore!" Li Zhenbang put down the bowl and chopsticks without saying anything, saying he was sorry, but his expression

But he didn't mean to be embarrassed at all.

"You are an interesting person. We are strangers, so you are not afraid that I will poison the food?" The old man took a sip of the wine in the wine glass, and then looked at Li Zhenbang with a smile.

"Old sir, you also said that we are strangers, so there is no enmity between us. Since there is no enmity, why would you poison me?" Li Zhenbang said calmly without taking it seriously.

Li Zhenbang sounds nice, but in fact he is not afraid of being poisoned at all. Since he solved the Poison Dragon King, his body's anti-poison ability has been greatly improved, and most poisons are harmless to him.

It worked.

"Haha, interesting! It's really interesting!" The old man nodded and laughed.

"Would you like to try the fruit wine I brewed? I brewed it by mixing red fruits from the forest and some rare fruits. You can't drink it outside." The old man shook the wine gourd in his hand.

.

"Oh? Then I really want to have a drink to see if the old man is not only good at cooking, but also good at making wine!" Li Zhenbang stretched out his hand to get the wine gourd.

"Hey! You can drink it, but you have to listen to me first. This wine is not an ordinary wine. I call it Immortal Drunkenness! If an average person drinks one cup, he will be drunk for at least a day and a night. Do you dare to try it?"

The old man shrank his hand and took the wine gourd back into his arms.

"Oh? Immortal drunkenness? Interesting! Just drink it, why not? Now even if you don't let me drink it, I will try it. As the saying goes, a drunk man can solve a thousand worries, and I just want to get drunk! I will be afraid when the time comes.

You are so stingy that you are reluctant to give me a drink!" Li Zhenbang raised his eyebrows.

"Okay! Since you said so, I will leave it here. As long as you dare to drink Immortal Drunk, I will never stop you. And I will give you as much as you can drink!" The old man seemed to be angry and said

The wine gourd in his hand was thrown to Li Zhenbang.

"Okay! It's a deal!" After Li Zhenbang finished speaking, he opened the cork of the wine gourd, and a breath of fresh air instantly flowed out of the wine gourd.

"Good wine! I said that when I was eating just now, I always felt that the taste and smell were slightly different. It turned out that it was missing!" Li Zhenbang suddenly realized.
