At noon, Chen Daolin and Lan Lan went to see Ge Yan together.
Geyan's caravan had been put in order, with a total of four wagons, all of which had been sold out, and now loaded with various items purchased from the elven tribes.
There were fifteen people in the caravan, including Geyan.
Fortunately, Geyan and the others are away all year round and are well prepared.
The caravan of fifteen men brought with it nearly thirty horses.
The people of the tulip caravan have no opinion on Lan Lan's joining, after all, everyone knows that this Miss Lan Lan is a friend of the noble family.
In the eyes of people, Chen Daolin is just a vassal.
Although the horses are rich, Chen Daolin does not know how to ride horses, so naturally he will not blow himself up stupidly, so he simply sat in the carriage.
Lan Lan was obviously very good at riding, but she refused a horse brought by Ge Yan, but jumped into a carriage and sat with Chen Daolin.
The carriages are all open-top wagons, and there are no carports, Chen Daolin and Lan Lan sit on the car, and everyone around them can see it.
Except for four of the Tulip family, the rest of the people, including Geyan, rode on horseback.
Before Chen Daolin left, he went to pay a special visit to the elven elder, and he always felt that the elven elder took the initiative to invite him to come to the business, and it seemed that there was some kind of plan.
This time, I came by myself, but I happened to meet the caravan of the Tulip family, and I didn't do much business.
However, this elf elder didn't seem to care, but Wen Yan encouraged Chen Daolin a few words, and said more enthusiastically that his tribe would always welcome Chen Daolin's arrival in the future, and whenever he came to do business, he would be welcomed by the grass and tree elves.
But until the end, this elf elder didn't say anything dry, and this kind of polite words made Chen Daolin more and more puzzled, but since this is the case, it is better to treat it as a mystery in his heart for the time being.
After lunch, the team hit the road and left the elven tribe.
Walking with this group seems to be a lot safer, at least in terms of feeling.
Gyan had already sent one of his men to ride at the front of the group, and carried a banner with a flaming tulip on it.
Lan Lan explained to Chen Daolin: In this frozen forest, there are territories of various elven tribes along the way, and outsiders are never welcome to enter.
Only under the banner of the Tulip family will the elven tribes that pass along the way not come to harass.
The carriage was difficult to walk in the forest, so the convoy had to follow the open area by the lake.
This is exactly what Chen Daolin is thinking about, and the gate of his passage is in the woods not far from the shore of Dayuan Lake.
Head south along the lakefront.
The speed of riding a horse is naturally much faster than Chen Daolin's previous two walks.
After walking like this for about four days, according to Ge Yan and the others, it can be regarded as walking out of the territory of the grass and tree elf tribe on the shore of the lake in the northern section of Dayuan Lake.
And the atmosphere in the team seems to have changed.
When he was camping that night, Geyan had already pulled seven or eight of his subordinates aside and whispered for a while, and then several of his subordinates went into the woods, not knowing what to do, and came back after a while.
In the middle of the night, Chen Daolin was sleeping in a daze, and was suddenly awakened by a movement outside.
He immediately subconsciously touched the elf dagger placed next to his head, and saw that the dagger did not emit the light of the alarm, so his heart was slightly relieved.
When he climbed out of the tent, Lan Lan was already standing outside the tent, holding a short sword in his hand, glanced at Chen Daolin, and said in a low voice: "It's nothing that they caught any prey." ” Chen Daolin stood beside Lan Lan and saw Ge Yan coming back from the forest with seven or eight companions.
They were armed with swords or crossbows, some of which still had undried blood.
At the back of the team, two of the strongest men worked together to carry a strong wolf, the wolf's fur glowed with silver-gray light, and there were horns growing on his forehead, which was clearly the kind of demonic beast that Chen Daolin had encountered.
And there were a few men at the end of the line, but they used a huge net bag to carry the corpse of a monster together.
The monster in the net pocket looked like a crocodile from a distance, with a and thick skin, a long crocodile with a pointed beak, and a long flat tail.
However, unlike the crocodile, this monster has eight legs, although the legs are short, but they are thick and powerful, and the strong leather is clearly the amazingly full muscle.
The caravan retinue of these tulip families carried their prey back to the camp and laid it down by the fire.
Ge Yan and the others were in a happy mood and laughing.
Then they worked all night, nailing the wolf's carcass to the trunk of the tree, and then Geyan skilfully peeled off a whole wolf's skin.
Skilled veterans in the team immediately found some special materials and made wolf skins.
Geyan even cut open the wolf's head with his own hands, dug out the wolf's horns from the inside, and then dug out the demon wolf's magic core.
"That's an adult Storm Wolf."
Lan Lan said in a low voice: "This wolf skin is made of a cloak, but it is a very good armor, and it is difficult for ordinary bows and arrows to shoot through.
The wolf horn and the magic core can be sold to the magic guild, the price is quite expensive, and a wolf horn of a demon wolf, if it is of good quality, can be sold for hundreds of gold coins.
I see that the level of this demon wolf they hit is not low, and the horns are in good condition, and they can be sold for a good price. ” "What's that," Chen Daolin pointed to the crocodile-like monster.
"A burrowing dragon."

Lan Lan said: "Earth-based demonic beasts."
It's not a high-level magical beast, but it has the ability to petrify, and when you encounter an enemy, you can make your skin petrified, the sword is hard to hurt, and it's good at drilling into the ground to impress, don't look at it looks bulky, in fact, it moves quickly, and it's difficult to deal with. ” After a pause, Lan Lan glanced at Chen Daolin: "This earth dragon's magic core is not valuable, but it has a glandular sac in its body, but it can secrete a wonderful liquid that makes flesh and blood hard as a stone, and after being applied, the effective time can last for nearly an hour."
This thing was very popular in the Roland Empire. ” In the end, Lan Lan's face turned crimson and glanced at Chen Daolin.
Chen Daolin was a little dazed at first, and then saw the blush on Lan Lan's face, and suddenly came to his senses.
Isn't this the Indian god oil when I rub it?
"These tulip caravans are actually part-time hunters."
Chen Daolin sighed.
Lan Lan smiled and said in a low voice, "You have to understand, they are all the generals of the Tulip family.
Those who can be selected to walk the route of the Frozen Forest are naturally carefully selected good players, whether it is courage or skill, they are all selected from the crowd.
But even so, going north into the frozen forest is still a dangerous job after all.
On the way, you have to pass through the territory of the orc kingdom, not to mention, this frozen forest is full of demonic beasts, although the elves have always been friendly to the tulip family, but there are always some extremely paranoid and conservative elf tribes who do not sell the face of the tulip family.
In short, those who come north to do this work naturally pin their heads to the waistband of their trousers.
Running a business, of course, can earn a lot of wealth, but those are the family's money, although the remuneration they get is not low, but after all, they are fighting for their lives, who doesn't want to make more, so the family allows them to give themselves a little selfish profit at the right time. ” "Oh" "There are many demonic beasts in the frozen forest, although they are dangerous, but after all, demonic beasts are all treasures, and these things can be sold for a high price if they are made within the empire."
Lan Lan said: "None of these warriors of the Tulip family are weak hands, since they have entered the Treasure Mountain, how can they return empty-handed."
Their tradition is that on each way back, after the goods are sold, they can do several hunts with the consent of the leader, and the harvest of the hunt is transported to the empire and the proceeds from the sale are the private property of these samurai, and the family will not care about this.
What's more, these things are transported to China with the caravan, and in the name of the tulip family, they don't have to pay taxes, which can be regarded as a disguised subsidy for them by the family. ” Chen Daolin nodded.
This night's hunting and receiving made Ge Yan and the others very satisfied.
And for the rest of the journey, when he camped for three nights in a row, Geyan would lead the people into the woods.
These guys are all veterans of the jungle, and they are very good at setting up sets and stuff like that.
And they are very smart, they will never provoke those high-level demonic beasts that are so powerful that they can't redeem themselves, and only attack some medium- and low-level demonic beasts.
For four consecutive nights, every night did not return empty-handed, and Ge Yan and the others had happy smiles on their faces.
It was only on the fifth night that Geyan ordered no more hunting.
Obviously, the steward of this tulip family is still very sensible.
Although the proceeds of the hunt went into everyone's private pockets, he knew very well the fate of insatiable greed.
My group has been hunting for several days in a row, and the harvest is not small.
The so-called often walk by the river, it is inevitable not to get your shoes wet.
If you really hunt and get addicted, if something goes wrong You know, all the proceeds from this transaction are still in the fleet, and hunting can certainly make a small fortune, but if there is a problem with the goods of these cars, it will outweigh the losses.
Obviously, this Geyan can mix with the leader of a caravan, and he can still distinguish the importance and proportion.
And the people in the team were also very convinced of him, and since Ge Yan said that hunting was not allowed, everyone had no objection.
And when he was camping that night, Chen Daolin had been thinking about one thing in his heart.
Because since the afternoon, he has observed the terrain around him, and according to the memory in his heart, the coordinates of the door he crossed through are getting closer and closer After camping in the evening, Chen Daolin carefully calculated that the camping place was not too far from the door.
Thinking about things in his heart, he couldn't help but look a little absent-minded.
Fortunately, Ge Yan and the others were happy to make a small fortune, and no one would care about Chen Daolin.
As for Lan Lan, although he saw that Chen Daolin seemed to have something on his mind, he only thought that as he went further and further south, he was worried about the trouble after returning to Roland, but he didn't think of anything else.
At night, Chen Daolin waited patiently in the tent until after midnight, and then got up and carried the magic burden behind him.
With his dagger at his waist and his crossbow bolt on his lap, he crept out of the tent.
Lan Lan's tent was not far from him, and before Chen Daolin climbed out, Lan Lan heard the movement, and a sentence came from afar: "Is it you Darling?"
Chen Daolin coughed and said, "Well, I drank a lot of soup at night, I" Lan Lan fell silent for a moment.
Chen Daolin walked away quickly, walked a few steps, and next to the camp, there were even warriors of the Tulip family who were on vigil sitting around the bonfire, and one of them glanced at Chen Daolin: "Where are you going?"
Chen Daolin pretended to smile bitterly, covered his stomach, and pointed to the woods.
The two of them didn't think much about it, laughed, and watched Chen Daolin get into the woods, and the two of them whispered, with a bit of disdain in their words.
Chen Daolin entered the woods, breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, took out a compass from his pocket, identified the direction, and trotted all the way quickly.
He has the magic dagger protection of the elves, but he is not worried about sudden danger.
However, in the middle of the night, he was running alone in the woods, and Chen Daolin was worried after all.
Fortunately, my memory was not wrong, and after running for about a meal, I found the direction of the gate of passage.

Chen Daolin stopped and looked around, making sure that no one was following, and then walked to the bushes.
Gradually, the door panel appeared in the air, and Chen Daolin breathed a sigh of relief.
At this moment, there was a struggle in his heart.
It is said that if he just opens the door and goes back, he will naturally have no more trouble.
The receipt of this trip is already big enough, a bag of gold coins, plus those four gold wire fire diamonds, can definitely be exchanged for a lot of wealth when you go back.
Can be blue Hey, Chen Daolin sighed and dispelled the idea of running away.
He tried to move the door frame of the crossing door, and when he found that the door frame could be moved, he was immediately relieved.
That's easy to do.
He removed the magic baggage, then carefully flattened the door frame, and tucked it into the baggage little by little.
This magical burden is really magical, as soon as this huge door frame is close to the baggage, it immediately seems that there is no limit to the volume, and it is easily stuffed in.
Chen Daolin stuffed the door frame in, and then he was still not at ease, so he took it out again, opened the door and looked inside the door, and made sure that the other side of the door was indeed his own world.
Only then did I finally feel at ease, and I installed the door frame and put it into the baggage.
My heart became more and more excited With this magic storage baggage, it is indeed convenient In the future, you can carry this gate with you, and you can go back whenever you want Chen Daolin was very proud, and immediately set off on the return journey.
After recognizing the direction, I walked for a while, but I realized that something was wrong Although I have a compass, the general direction is correct.
But the problem is that Chen Daolin is an otaku in real life after all.
Although he has a lot of walking experience in this frozen forest, after all, it is only a two-and-a-half tone, not to mention, in the middle of the night, black rumbling in the woods, even a veteran will inevitably make mistakes, not to mention that he is a rookie Chen Daolin walked for nearly an hour, and then had to reluctantly admit a fact: Lost on your own After Chen Daolin was slightly depressed, he quickly cheered up.
If he gets lost in the frozen forest, I'm afraid he will be really scared.
Don't forget, this is close to the shores of the Great Round Lake, and this forest also surrounds the shores of the Great Round Lake.
As long as you find the right direction and walk to the lake, and then walk along the lakeside, you will always find the campsite.
It's just that after I go back, I'm afraid that I will be interrogated by those people why I have disappeared for so long.
It's a big deal to be made fun of yourself and go out to but get lost.
Chen Daolin took a deep breath, and sure enough, he quickly walked out of the woods and came to the lake.
After identifying the direction, I finally reluctantly found myself in a long circle in the woods, and although I finally found the lakeside now, I am afraid that it is several kilometers away from the campsite.
However, Chen Daolin's temperament has always been more open-minded, since he is sure that this is the case, but he is not in a hurry, he just walks leisurely, walks slowly along the lakeside, and enjoys the night view of the lake by the way.
After walking for about ten minutes, he suddenly saw a faint fire on the shore of the lake in front of him, and at first he thought that he had found a campsite, but the further he went, the more he realized that something was wrong.
The campfire was only a small pile, and there were no wagons or horses around.
In front of the campfire, there was only a lonely figure sitting there.
At this moment, the sky was dark, and the forest and the lake seemed to be silent, as if between heaven and earth, only the bonfire on the shore and the lonely figure remained.
From a distance, there is actually a bit of a ghostly feeling.
Chen Daolin couldn't help but feel a little numb in his scalp, but he had already walked here, and he couldn't go around, so he simply strode up to meet him.
When he came to the place where the bonfire was only more than ten steps away, Chen Daolin said loudly: "Your Excellency disturbed me and I was passing through here in a hurry, there is no malice, that."
Chen Daolin walked to the bonfire and couldn't help but be stunned when he saw the figure sitting in front of the fire.
"It turned out to be you."
The man by the campfire raised his head and looked at Chen Daolin.
Beneath the cloak, the face flickered in the light of the flames, but it could not hide the handsome and astonishing face.
The man gently pulled down his hat, revealing blonde hair and pointed ears, which unabashedly explained his identity as an elf.
And when this person's eyes, when his gaze fell on Chen Daolin, it suddenly made him feel like he was being seen through.
"You are, you're the elf called Falling Snow, I remember you."
Luoxue smiled lightly: "I remember you too, interesting human. ” Chen Daolin had to admit that the appearance of this elf named Luoxue when he smiled would really make people dispel all vigilance and hostility towards it in an instant.
This kind of smile, combined with its handsome and extraordinary face, will make people feel like a spring breeze.
"We met at night, and it was actually twice, I have to say that the fate between us is really not shallow."
Luo Xue smiled very calmly, but there was a faint meaning in her eyes, and she looked at Chen Daolin carefully.
Chen Daolin smiled bitterly.
Where would he forget this strange elf It is worth mentioning that he felt that this elf must be extraordinary at the beginning, and Lan Lan also said that he felt a strange invisible pressure from this elf.
There is no doubt that this guy must have a special identity.

In order to avoid trouble, he pretended to be forced, but this elf seemed to be very interested, but he didn't expect to meet him by the lake again tonight.
Could it be that it is waiting for someone here Could it be, it's Tulip's Thinking of this, Chen Daolin's heart suddenly beat faster.
Chen Daolin was thinking about what he wanted to say Suddenly, there was a mocking laugh from the woods.
"Ha Luoxue, you sissy, you still speak so sourly.
What fate is not shallow.
Hey, a sissy is a sissy. ” As soon as he finished speaking, he saw two figures slowly walking out of the woods.
The first one, a young man with a strange smile on his face, dressed in a plain robe, with a slender figure, a delicate face, and a faint bookish air between his eyebrows, Chen Daolin recognized it at a glance, and it was really the young man of the Tulip family, who almost forgot that she was a female But behind the girl from the tulip family, there is still a figure, and the person who said that sentence just now is obviously the person behind her.
The man walked over slowly, sitting on the falling snow by the campfire, the smile on his face suddenly retracted, and he stood up slowly, his eyes bursting with an astonishing edge Chen Daolin, who was standing beside Luoxue, suddenly felt that his whole body suddenly fell into the ice cellar:
