Chapter 12 Lake Isabella
Lake Isabella, looking from the sky, is like a pearl falling on a snow-capped mountain, clear and translucent.
If you look at it at night, the moonlight reflected on the lake is more beautiful, and the sky in the reflection is more dreamy.
Wang Xuance dealt with the two beheaded wolves last night and then fell asleep. He didn't wake up from his sleep until after 11 o'clock the next morning. There were reasons for excessive mental expenditure and also reasons for laziness.
After all, when the weather is cold, people prefer to lie in bed, right?
The old mining basin where Wang Xuance is currently located is not far from Lake Isabella, and it can be reached in about twenty minutes by riding a horse.
Wang Xuance planned to go to Lake Isabella to see the white horse. If he could catch it, he would come to the mining basin to rest, and then go back. If he couldn't catch it, he would continue to walk up the snow-capped mountains and take a look at the Porch Village in the first chapter of the game.
When I rode up the hill, when I reached the top, the sun shone down from the top of the mountain, dyeing the snow in front of Wang Xuance a layer of golden color.
Wang Xuance stared blankly at the beautiful scenery in front of him, and for a moment, he didn't know whether he was in the human world or in the heavenly court.
"What a beautiful scenery." Wang Xuance took out the camera he just bought and took a few photos. "The sun suddenly cleared and revealed the Nanshan Cen."
Wang Xuance rode down the mountain and walked slowly, as if he couldn't see enough of this beautiful scenery.
But it was almost noon after all, and the beautiful scenery lasted less than ten minutes. The sun had already flown from the mountains and flew into the sky and shone on all things in the world.
Because the air is too cold, the water surface of Lake Isabella has been covered with a thick layer of ice. You can clearly see that there are all kinds of big fish wandering under the ice.
Wang Xuance looked at the big fish under the water and was about to take out his pistol. He thought about his purpose again, but he put down the gun in his hand and planned to wait and see if he could find the white elf mentioned by Valentine's groom.
However, Wang Xuance circled Lake Isabella for several times and walked in the woods for about three or four hours, but did not see any white elf. He even saw a few traces after turning on the Hawk Eye. However, after careful observation, he found that it was not the footprints of a horse, but the white-tailed deer or an elk. Wang Xuance even found the footprints of a moose among various footprints, which could be that there were no footprints of the horse he wanted.
"Oh, maybe this horse is not destined to be with me." Wang Xuance did not waste time finding a white horse that might be no longer nearby, but planned to fish in Lake Isabella to see if he could catch the legendary fish that was said to be in Lake Isabella.
After eating a canned beef last night, Wang Xuance has been wanting to eat something hot instead of eating cold canned food all the time.
I happened to get some wolf meat last night. Today I have time. I can try how the wolf meat tastes.
After all, in the original world, wolves are national second-level protected animals and are known as one of the beasts under prison.
But I am in the United States now, or in the United States in 1898.
Take out a piece of wolf thigh meat, find a piece of wood and sharpen it, and then put the meat on it. This simple barbecue is done.
After sprinkling cumin and other seasonings, he slowly placed the meat on the fire and rotated it. Wang Xuance was not in a hurry, but waited slowly. Slowly, the meat on the surface of his thighs had begun to burn, and Wang Xuance took the meat off the fire.
After tasting it, I found that the wolf meat was rougher than the meat I had eaten before. Perhaps it was because I lived in the wild for a long time, which led to the wolf's muscle fibers being more developed. If it was not developed, it would not be able to run so fast.
All living things evolved slowly. Without so many muscle fibers, maybe there was no wolf in the world.
Wang Xuance thought of the small wooden house he saw before. Although he didn't know who built it, he probably hadn't lived in it for a long time since he saw the trees nearby.
The reason why Wang Xuance did not live next to the wooden house was that he didn't want any accidents. If Mars accidentally fell on the wooden house and burned the wooden house, he probably would have to sleep in a small house with air leakage on all sides like last night, and his head would have to be buried in the bedding when he was sleeping.
After eating the roasted meat, Wang Xuance set out to go to the wooden house to take a look, but he didn't know what the previous owner left for him.
In the United States, during this period of time, a wooden house without anyone else in the wild is a treasure. No one knows what is inside, what if someone leaves gold in it.
It's like a wooden house near Anisterburg, which contains clues about gold left by the three Anisterburg brothers.
However, although Wang Xuance remembered this, because Anister's Castle was a little far from where he entered this world, he didn't want to go to Anister's Castle at the beginning. Moreover, there is still the Movry family in which activities are located near Anister's Castle, which is really not suitable for ordinary people to live.
Moreover, random events of the Mofury family are often encountered near Lake Elysia, and people from the Mofury family can often be seen cleaning up the bodies of the people they killed.
Wang Xuance walked to the edge of the hut, first cleaned up the grass blocking the door, then opened the door and released the smell inside.
After entering the door, I found that the situation of this small cabin was very dangerous. If no one repaired it, the cabin might collapse at most for a few months or after heavy snow.
Wang Xuance planned to rest for a day or two near Lake Isabella, then go down the mountain and walk along the ridge to Vapiti.
He remembered that after passing the pipe valley, there was a small valley beside the road. There was a cave in the valley, and several unknown statues were erected. After pressing the buttons on the statue according to the rules, a small hole would appear under the statue in the middle of the statue group, with three gold bars inside.
These three gold bars can be said to be the easiest way to get the game at the beginning. At the beginning, Wang Xuance also wanted to get these three gold bars, but at that time he did not have the ability to protect himself, so it was risky to go to such deep mountains and forests. Now, he has prepared everything and his own abilities can be said to be invincible. As long as someone else is not bombarding him with a gun, he will definitely survive.
Another wolf legs were roasted for dinner. Although they were still rough, at least due to various seasonings, the taste was still delicious. Wang Xuance put the wolf skin into his backpack and planned to take it out to make a leather jacket or hat after returning to the town.
Wang Xuance checked the wooden house again and confirmed that it would not break suddenly. After looking at the sky, he saw that there would not be heavy snow recently. Then he put down his bedding and lay down.
According to his estimate, it would take at least six hours to run from Lake Isabella to Vapiti. This is a situation where the horse is permanently moving without resting in the middle. If it is resting in the middle, it will take longer.
After all, reality is still different from games. You can get a perpetual motion saddle in the game, but in reality, you can only let the horse run for a while and rest for a while. It is impossible that you never need to rest just like in the game.
