Mountain and Forest Kingdom

Cheese is a dairy product solidified from milk. One pound of cheese requires more than ten pounds of milk.

If you include the salt and the sugar and honey added to improve the taste, this giant cheese about the size of a wheel on the table is indeed a symbol of wealth.

Most of the nobles outside do not have this kind of giant cheese, and they are completely rich in exchange for a few beautiful female slaves.

"In addition to dry cheese, I also brought back some good bacon and ham. Sit down and chat slowly, and I can continue to introduce you to the food we have here."

Lawrence took the initiative to cut off a large piece of cheese and cut it into triangular shapes with a long knife. He gave the cut cheese to Sofia and Tia to try.

Oralda also got a small piece of cheese. After getting it, Tia said gratefully: "This is so precious! You are so generous!"

Lawrence showed a funny look, and quickly said seriously: "It is indeed precious outside. Even in many places here, we don't eat this kind of specially made wheel cheese."

"But my life here is much better than outside. I give you a small piece not because I am reluctant to give you the precious cheese to enjoy, but because I have other food to taste later. If you eat too much sweets, I will eat it later. I’ve lost my appetite.”

Lawrence took a small bite of the cheese. It tasted like toffee, and the saltiness of it made the fat in the cheese less greasy.

As soon as you take a bite, saliva will appear in your mouth. This cheese is originally made for travel. It can be used to satisfy hunger and thirst, and is more effective than simple candy.

After Tia saw Lawrence eating, she also took a bite, with a happy look on her face.

This expression soon changed, and Tia, who had squinted her eyes, soon opened her beautiful and charming blue eyes wide.

It turned out that the maid outside was carrying giant cheeses the size of wheels. In addition to sweet cheeses the size of grating plates, there were also pork hind legs that looked like water bladders.

The sense of smell that was originally dull to the level of a normal person was stimulated to a real level by the nearby delicacies. Tia was able to identify the treasures in each box and bag just by relying on her sense of smell! !

Fried pine nuts!

Fermented fruit!

Pork ham that has been hidden for three or four years!

Wines over nine years old!

Very lean fish!

Fresh sea vegetables!

Salt!

Dried fungus wild vegetables!

Big prawns!

Lawrence felt Tia's passionate gaze and quickly ordered someone to bring fresh fried meat from the kitchen.

"Please use it. Every Chinese New Year, we prepare some fried fish, fried meatballs, fried dough and other foods to stock up so that you can eat them whenever you want in the winter."

Lawrence also entertained these elves politely and shared food with these guests as a host.

It is a consistent tradition at home and abroad for the host to serve delicious food to guests, especially those guests who are harmless and considered friends of the host will be entertained.

Rich food is not everything, Lawrence is very willing to listen to Tia talk about things in the outside world, especially the elf world and nearby things.

Lawrence was about to ask about the mountains and forests, but Tia was like an active child, her thoughts were not following Lawrence at all.

Tia looked towards the kitchen and said, "I smell a lot of eggs. Do you have a lot of chickens laying eggs here?"

Lawrence said: "The place where the chickens are raised is not in the castle. Eggs and vegetables are transported from nearby farms every day, and the eggs are cooked in a big pot in the kitchen."

"Usually, more than a hundred eggs are boiled at a time, and then the boiled eggs are peeled and placed in a larger basin. They are distributed to those who want to eat when they are waiting to eat."

"There are probably more than two hundred eggs in a basin. Basically, the servants are eating them. We will cook them separately when we eat them."

Tia said excitedly: "Can I go to the kitchen and have a look?"

Lawrence wanted to know what was going on outside and wanted to know something from the elves who had lived longer.

"Okay, but Allura and I still have something to talk about. You can go and see it with Sophia."

Sofia took the initiative and said, "I'll take you to the kitchen and take whatever you want to eat!"

Tia nodded excitedly, "Thank you! I really like it here!"

Soon Tia and Sofia went to visit the kitchen together, not forgetting to take the unfinished fried pork chop when they left.

Lawrence watched the two girls leaving, then quickly looked at Orouda, "She looks very young."

Oralda smiled and said, "That's right, she is still a child in the Queen's eyes."

Lawrence himself was a king and a prophet, and was not so sensitive to identities such as princesses and princes.

"I want to know some things about Agama Mountain, such as the dangerous creatures, climate, minerals, mountain people and the tallest snow mountain."

Oralda showed a puzzled expression, "Well... I don't know much about this kind of thing."

Lawrence asked: "Does Tia know?"

"She?" Oroda explained with a helpless smile: "She has always been in the forest and never went out. Our tribe doesn't like to talk about outside things. We actually know very little about this land. We only know that The mountain was here a long time ago.”

Lawrence was speechless for a while. Who didn't know that Mount Agama was here a long time ago?

Lawrence asked incomprehensively: "You live near a mountain, haven't you ever thought about climbing to the top of that mountain and standing on the top of the mountain to look around?"

Oralda frowned and quickly shook her head, "No."

Lawrence suddenly became a little angry, "The world is at your fingertips, you can reach it with your hands. Could it be that no one or elf has ever stepped into this mountain for hundreds of years and brought back some news from the mountain?"

Oralda still shook her head, "I don't know. Maybe there is, but it hasn't been passed down, or I don't know."

"When I go back, I can help you ask our wise man there. He should know something." Euroda sensed that Lawrence was unhappy and quickly made amends.

Lawrence's mood quickly calmed down. Euroda's ignorant performance strengthened Lawrence's desire to conquer the Agama Mountain around him.

Lawrence didn't want to spend the rest of his life in a blur.

It doesn't matter what's on the mountain. What matters is that Lawrence goes out, steps on it, and conquers the mysterious mountain that no one has ever understood.

"Since you don't know much about mountains, you should know a lot about forests." Lawrence changed the question, "On the way here and when you go back, you should also have seen the scenery surrounding the upper half of the mountain. The nearby Are plants common where you live?”

This is the area that the elves are familiar with. Oralda replied: "There are many oak trees in this mountain, and they are also very beautiful and ancient. They are not much worse than our place."

"To be honest, only this mountain and our royal tribe have such beautiful oak trees. I can't see other oak trees at all on the road, only some monotonous pine trees, cypress trees, and fir trees. There are no grass or trees in many places."

There are probably two reasons why trees cannot grow. One is the wrong climate, and the other is a lack of nutrients.

The Snowy Mountains are extremely cold due to their height, but why are there two very different climates in the Green Forest Kingdom and Oak City around the Snowy Mountains?

Lawrence looked thoughtful and quickly analyzed the general information.

In Lawrence's imagination, Oak City is located in a low position, with mountains far apart on both sides. There is also a sloping mountain range on the Wakili territory that isolates the Wakili people from the seaside.

Between the two mountains are a few plains and swamp areas, where the Pumixiu, Kur and Sidel people are active.

There are high mountains between the port of Dum and the town of Pumihio, so the water cannot flow to the sea and must be bypassed.

This mountain is not horizontal to the north, but a sloping mountain, so not only does it not block the cold wind from the glacial continent to the north, it also concentrates most of the cold wind!

Mountains and plains with this shape will be a devastating disaster once a real cold winter occurs. This is also the reason why many people died in the cold winter in Pig Trotter City in the past few years.

However, Lawrence was farming in the mountains at that time, not in the plains, so he didn't feel the disaster was serious.

The world is not a neat piece, and there are no regular directions and orientations.

Regardless of mountains or countries, they are basically all facing and extending crookedly.

Distance, climate, region, wind direction, time...

The real world is different from the world on the map. Most maps are flat maps on paper. The actual landforms are rugged like scars, with some highs and some lows.

If this roughly)(shaped terrain should be rotated slightly to the left, then the Wakili people in the outer coastal areas are indeed the group of people who have the hardest time in the land of ice, and they have endured all the extreme cold tests. Ice Warriors.

The main reason why the Valkyries couldn't beat the Siders and the Pig Trotters was because of their low health bar. This didn't refer to the physical quality of the barbarians, but to the land.

The land that is cultivated, the land that produces food and is suitable for life is the blood bar of the Vakiri people. Its blood bar cannot compete with the people of Sider and Zhuti City, and the territory of the Sider people is no better than that of the Wakili people. , so they can’t beat the people from Pig Trotter City.

The Wakili people killed the Xuedong people because they did not allow the Xuedong people to obtain land that they could not even use.

Lawrence continued to think about trees. The factor that prevented trees and flowers from surviving was the light!

If there are mountains blocking the river in front and behind it, and the scarce sunlight cannot shine in, coupled with the cold factor, no grass will grow.

Or maybe some vegetation will only grow when there is sufficient sunshine in summer, and then quickly wither in autumn.

The Green Forest Kingdom should be at a lower altitude, located near a resource-rich valley basin, with the river passing through but flowing downstream along the valley.

The Green Forest Kingdom, which is located in the inland area, actually does not need the warm wind from the west. The Agama Mountains are not all cold areas. This can be seen in summer and autumn. It is mostly because of the cold wind blowing away from the northern continent. Geothermal.

Lawrence quickly determined that there were two sloping areas in the Agama Mountains, one was the low-valley warm area like the Valley of Fire, and the other was the high-mountain ice area behind the mountains.

What Lawrence wanted to conquer was the highest ice region.

Lawrence needed some time to think and sort out some of the results.

Soon Lawrence arranged for Jade to entertain these elves to eat and bathe, while he went back to the house after eating to continue planning his climbing trip. (End of chapter)
