Chapter 126 Teacher Ayun's Style
Chapter 126 Teacher Ayun's Style
General Kleist's handsome face almost cracked...
Evelyn hastened to add: "The teacher said he would figure it out in the next chapter."
Kleist: "..." If you want to ask the elf general if he is satisfied with this explanation, he must be dissatisfied... But can he still be sloppy!
Gathering his mind, General Kleist really didn't want to see the mysterious man portrayed in this article being so spoiled by the original author, so he said, "Evelyn, who is going to draw the illustrations for this travel note?"
Evelyn let out an "ah" with a dazed look on her face——fuck, she was so excited about these two travel notes that she forgot about the important illustrations!
"I'll draw." General Kleist said deeply. He could see that Evelyn became unreliable after worshiping the teacher of the Snow Wolf Clan. Such a terrific waste of master and apprentice!
An elf who can live for hundreds of years is not versatile. Kleist is not only first-class in martial arts, first-class tactics, and first-class appearance (a rounded chin does not damage the appearance), but also has made great achievements in the field of art, especially good at Character drawing, calligraphy and poetry, and immediately asked his wife to prepare pen and ink manuscript paper for him to describe the mysterious man in the travel notes that made him yearn for.
On the cold street of an unknown town, a man looked sideways. The black half-length cloak with a hood covered the upper half of the man's face, and the gray-black themed leather armor was stretched out by a strong and powerful body. The curvy, slightly bowed body looks like a beast ready to go; under the shadow of the hood, one looming eye is sharp and cold, with an indifferent expression, the corners of the lips are like knives, and the slender and powerful fingers block the completely hidden left eye Fang, seems to be blocking the peeper's line of sight, and seems to be measuring where the peeper's neck needs to be cut.
"...The general's characters are still so brilliant. You should draw the illustrations for this travel note. The characters on the paper seem to have souls." Evelyn applauded guiltily.
Kleist gave her a disgusted look, carefully rolled up his carefully drawn illustrations, and lightly tied them with the original manuscript paper with a ribbon. Then he sat back and picked up the second manuscript to start.
Then he saw his name.
"If you don't use you as the prototype, Teacher Ayun will use Hailin as the protagonist." Evelyn said sadly.
"..." General Kleist was speechless for a while, and could only endure the disobedience and lower his head to read the manuscript.
Without any cumbersome descriptions and chants like moans, the opening chapter of "The Travel Notes of the Elven Ranger and His Snow Wolf Friends in the Mainland" is that the two protagonists traveled across the western continent in a small airship and encountered a strong storm, and landed in an unknown mountain in a thrilling manner , supplies were lost and food was in short supply, and they had to survive in the wild in the desolate mountains...
The hungry two made a lot of jokes in order to find food. First, the snow werewolf Hongye grabbed the fat bug and handed it to the elf ranger, "you can eat it if you remove the head", which scared the elf ranger away, and then the ranger found edible wild vegetables to cook. The vegetable soup was made, and the snow werewolf was forced to squeeze his nose to drink; the light-hearted and funny plot not only relieved the tension at the beginning of the chapter, but also showed the deep relationship between the two from the side.
After introducing the personalities and backgrounds of the two protagonists, the next step is the plot of dealing with the local indigenous dwarf villages. It can be summed up as follows: the villagers accept the door-to-door help, can’t bear the poverty of the dwarves and do their best to help, and the conservative dwarf village chief doesn’t trust them The strangers asked to drive them away. The two protagonists tried to get the support of the villagers. The operator changed the hillside into terraced fields. A large paragraph of text described the difficulties encountered in the transformation of the terraced fields and the solution that the clever elf ranger came up with. The terraced fields were formed and the water was built. The car solves the irrigation problem...
Snow werewolf Hongye's strong non-human strength and hands-on ability combined with the elf ranger Kleist's clever brain, step by step to overcome difficulties and solve problems is the deepest point of this travel note, and it doesn't matter if you don't feel much about dwarves The elf general who is a close friend of the snow wolf family read more and more excitedly, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help turning up... He even thought that if he was really "Kleist the Ranger", it wouldn't be a problem to help the dwarves he didn't take seriously up.
During this process, many funny plots are cleverly set up in the Chinese, which can always hit the reader's laughter. If the elf general did not try his best to control it, his laughter might startle his wife in the living room outside.
If Xiao Yun wants to say that it is okay to do other things, he is appointed to have no literary skills.But one advantage of living in the age of information explosion in his previous life is that he has been in touch with web, comics, movies, and games, so he knows how to attract the attention of readers in the popular way—that is, to infinitely strengthen the sense of substitution, so that readers can read in real time. Can be substituted into the protagonist.We don't pay much attention to artistry, sensibility, or literary quality. Only when readers can empathize with the protagonist, can this popular article be considered a success.
Then it’s just a routine to stuff it into the plot... The villain who is the opponent must be the most prestigious person in the chapter, and then let the villain be slapped in the face by the low-key and powerful protagonist. This kind of reversal counterattack bridge Duan, no matter which world he is in, people love to hear it.
As for the dry goods and private goods sandwiched between the text, that is a matter of opinion... Anyway, both dry goods and private goods can increase the thickness of the article, making the fictional stories in the story seem like that.
After reading the [-] words, Kleist gathered the manuscript paper, looked at Evelyn with reserved eyes, and said, "Who do you want to get the illustrations for this article?"
Evelyn understood, and respectfully made a gesture of invitation.
Before the opening of the new sea trade route, Ananas City would take some time to contact the Bard Association. Now the association has applied for a base to stay in the city. The Freedom Association formed by the Walker Rangers is not to mention how simple it is.General Kleist came forward with the manuscript and the illustrations he drew. After reading it, the person in charge of the association's stronghold patted his thigh and opened the contact water mirror to negotiate with the headquarters. Go inside Travel Notes.
The action of the elves is very reliable, far more reliable than the procrastinating Adventurer's Association. Five days later, Evelyn returned to the Snow Wolf tribe in high spirits, carrying a few copies of the new issue of "Travel to the Mainland" with her. sample issue.
"Today, this travel note will be sent to every corner of the continent by the Bard Association. Teacher, our name will be seen by countless people!" Evelyn was so excited that she clasped her hands and her face was flushed.
"Oh, wouldn't that be great." Xiao Yun perfunctorily opened the sample magazine calmly.
The elves are still very meticulous in doing things. The only monthly magazine in the whole continent is very exquisite, and the paper is also quite particular. When you open the cover, the first travel note published is his work.
Although Xiao Yun doesn't know the general characters in the sample magazine, the illustrations of this travel note are enough to reveal everything... The protagonist is drawn like the black version of Assassin's Creed, and the waist position is "faithful to the original" Weird square kitchen knife——except that the kitchen knife he uses is in this shape, Xiao Yun really doesn't believe that anyone on this continent can go out with such a square knife.
"What's written on it?" Xiao Yun pointed to the words on the top of the illustration page and asked.
"This row of big characters is the title, "Gourmet Hunter's Travels to the Mainland", the author below is the author, the first row is your name, original work: Snow Wolf Clan Ayun, author: Forest Elf Evelyn (*////▽ ////*)." Evelyn was both shy and excited.
Xiao Yun nodded in satisfaction. The elves are still very moral, and they didn't forget to mark the author of the Snow Wolf clan he requested, and put it in such a conspicuous position.
Xiao Yun was even more satisfied when he turned through pages of unfamiliar text and saw the frontispiece illustration of the next agricultural promotion... This illustration depicts two people side by side, one is an elf ranger dressed in light clothes, and the other The ears of the snow wolf tribe are carefully painted on both sides of the head of the burly man. This is a good publicity~
"The painting is very charming, especially our clansmen. Who painted this?" Xiao Yun said enthusiastically.
"It was drawn by General Kleist himself!" Evelyn excitedly said.
Xiao Yun: "..." That guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes really had the nerve to draw the protagonist with the same name as himself so handsome.
All right, for the sake of Hongye being drawn handsomely, forgive him.
"Teacher, the Bard Association hopes that the manuscript for the next chapter can be submitted as soon as possible, so as to avoid such a hasty revision like this time. The illustrations on the inner pages are too late to engrave the color version, so we can only use black and white." Evelyn said again.
"Ah... Got it, I'll come back to work on this later when I have time. I'll go and see how the sweet potato is doing, and you can make up for the homework you missed in the past few days." Xiao Yun patted his butt and got up and was about to leave.
Evelyn hurriedly threw herself on the kang table and grabbed the corner of Xiao Yun's clothes: "Wait a minute, teacher, generally speaking, the manuscripts published in travel journals are submitted one month in advance, and it's too late now!"
"Didn't I catch up with it before, this time it's ten or 20 days too late, and I can't make up so many stories at once, so I'll talk about it in a few days." Xiao Yun slapped her claws away.
Evelyn directly leaned over the kang table and hugged Xiao Yun's waist: "That's temporary - don't lie to me, you can come up with a story right away if you want!"
"Can you be a little more particular, more reserved, and what does it look like when you hug it!" Xiao Yun scolded, "I also need to rest my mind, come and let go, I'll go collect materials first."
"Take material?"
"That's right, in the next article, we will write about how Kleist and Hongye teach poor people without land to grow hydroponic sweet potatoes. It's very practical and solves people's livelihood problems. Let me go and I'm really going to collect materials~ "
"You're trying to lie to me again! You know best how to grow sweet potatoes, and you don't need to collect materials!" Evelyn hugged her even tighter.
Xiao Yun: "..." Evelyn's elf is harder to fool than Balk's stupid dragon, worry!
Balk, who was working diligently to extract moisture from the vermicelli in the flour mill that was still open every other day in winter, suddenly felt a little uncomfortable for some reason.
"...Auston is secretly scolding me again?" Balk scratched his head in doubt.
The headquarters of the Bard Association on the Bloomfield Continent is located in the ice-free port in the northern part of the Southern Continent, the famous commercial center city Valentine City.
Valentine City belongs to the Kingdom of Cronin, the most powerful country in the Northern Federation of the Southern Continent. Its land area is the largest in the Southern Continent, with a population of nearly 5000 million.With such a large population base, coupled with the hard work of the Cronin royal family, the national strength is at its peak, and elites emerge in large numbers. Nearly [-]% of the powerful maritime army of the Lamia Merchant Group and the patrols stationed in various places come from Cronin. The Spellcasters Association, Alchemy There are also Croninians in free forces such as the Wizards Association, the Bards Association, the Adventurers Association, and the Hunters Association.
Isaac’s small team returned to the southern continent with a warmer climate after it started snowing on the grassland. It just started snowing.
This year's adventure has yielded a lot of rewards. Isaac simply rented a small building in Valentine's busiest business district with the group fees paid by everyone in the team as the team's stronghold.The rent in this place is not cheap, it costs more than [-] gold coins a year, which is not cheap for Isaac's small team; but since they want to recruit reliable new teammates in Valentine City, they must be willing to pay There are other advantages of living in the commercial area, at least they can know the price changes in the market as soon as possible, so that they will not be deceived by others during the transaction.
In the Oak Tavern, Isaac and Alex are talking with a plant hunter.
It's not easy to invite this plant hunter chick. This kind of talent who has given up her main job in combat is very popular in any team, because they can prevent the team from letting those valuable but inconspicuous creatures pass through certain special areas. The baby slipped under his nose, and in order to get a chance to have a drink with this chick, Isaac paid a full thirty silver coins to the intelligence dealer.
But unfortunately... Isaac got the news too late. The plant hunter chick from Cronin just agreed to the invitation of a big team a day ago and learned of the intention of Isaac and Alex. , she shook her head regretfully, Shi Shiran got up and left.
"It's Theodore again, the alchemist we had our eyes on last time was also snatched away by that guy, could it be that the bastard is watching us specifically?" After the plant hunter left, Alex couldn't help complaining .
"Our small team couldn't invite alchemists. Even if it wasn't Theodore, there would be other big teams." Isaac sighed and took a gulp of wine, "What's more Theodore's team brought back a two-headed chimera to show off, and the choice between them and us was obvious."
The muscles on Alex's cheeks twitched, and he said unhappily, "Hey, what should we do, are we going to pick people up on the street?"
Scattered adventurers who are not favored by the team, if they can't even pay for the tavern, they can only wander the streets in order to meet the leader who is not picky, but such people are generally low in strength, even if they are invited to the team It also doesn't work much.
Isaac shook his head: "We can't separate people to take care of the newcomers. Forget it, I'll go to the intelligence agent in the afternoon."
Alex cursed at the unscrupulous and unreliable informant in a low voice, took two mouthfuls of side dishes and then slapped the table angrily: "It's too bad, this kind of barbecue dare to sell for twenty copper coins a plate, for the snow wolf clan's roast meat You don’t even deserve a string of shoes, and the free kimchi is ten times better than this stuff!”
Alex had just slapped the table on this side, and there was a louder slap on the table from the bar on the other side. Alex was startled, and when he turned his head to look, he saw a burly barbarian adventurer with a wine nose yelling at the waiter Roaring: "I heard that the Oak Tavern is the best tavern on this street, so I came to the door, but you don't even have cold-eat rabbits!"
The waiter was probably used to seeing drunken people, lazily: "The wine in our Oak Tree Tavern is already the most exquisite on this street. It is never mixed with water, and it will not be mixed with sour wine to sell to customers. As for What kind of rabbit meat are you talking about...there are plenty of them in the woods outside the city, you can grab them and roast them yourself."
"I'm talking about eating rabbits cold! Who wants to eat those fluffy rabbit meat!" The adventurer was furious and slammed the table again.
"You can eat it cold or hot. Anyway, I haven't heard of any tavern on this street that uses rabbit meat to fool customers. Maybe you can look for it in the thatched shack in the downtown area?" the waiter mocked.
The irritable barbarian rolled up his sleeves and was about to lift the bar. The waiter's expression changed drastically and he ran out quickly. He ran in through the door, and shouted into the store with a look of surprise: "Arudo, there is a tavern over there that has launched cold-eat rabbits, and they are making them at the entrance of the store, come here!"
The barbarian adventurer's thick arms were grasping the edge of the bar, and he immediately let go and turned around after hearing this, and strode away with his companions.
"Eat rabbits cold? Do rabbits still eat cold and hot?"
"I've never heard of it, what is it?"
"This man is here to find trouble. Rabbit meat is not as good as beef."
The customers in the store whispered to each other, and the person sitting near the door got up curiously and went out to look outside. After a while, the person said to his companion in surprise: "There are many people around there, and there is still a smell. The scent is coming, this smell is really fragrant!"
This person's companions also went to the door, and then this group of people ran away like the previous barbarian adventurers...
There is no one who eats the job of an adventurer without curiosity. The customers in the store looked at each other and got up one after another...
Most of the guests left at once, and the envoy who was still in the mood to mock the barbarian adventurer couldn't sit still, and ran out of the door...
Isaac and Alex ate the food of the Snow Werewolf for half a year. They didn’t believe that anyone other than the Snow Werewolf could make more delicious food. They sat quietly and drank the wine before getting up and going out, and then... just walked out As soon as they opened the gate of the tavern, they smelled the irritating and familiar aroma from the street next to them.
"The snow wolves came to Valentine to open a shop?!" Alex exclaimed in surprise, and ran away with Isaac.
It was obviously too late for them to leave now. The door of the shop that launched "Cold Eating Rabbit" was surrounded by three floors inside and three floors outside, and rows of heads and buttocks blocked them from the outermost.
"Is it so exaggerated? It's just a side dish!" Alex squeezed a few times and failed to squeeze in. Instead, he was pushed out by the buttocks of the generally strong adventurers, and he was very angry.
"That's right, it's just a side dish, I really don't know much about it." A fat man with his hips on his side said sourly.
Seeing that the man was wearing an apron, Alex knew that this was also a shop on this street, and asked curiously, "Why, could it be that you know how to make this cold-eating rabbit?"
"It's clearly written in the travel notes, even a fool can do it." The fat shopkeeper's face was not very good, and his tone was quite bad.
"Then why don't you do it?" Alex pointed at the dense crowd.
The fat shopkeeper was silent for a while, and said reluctantly, "Just now I sent people to catch rabbits."
Alex didn't think that these handicapped guys could make the delicious food of the Snow Wolf Clan, so he wanted to ridicule him, but Isaac held him back and looked at the fat shopkeeper suspiciously: "You mean, the travel notes teach people to be cold?" Eating rabbits?"
The fat shopkeeper probably saw that the business next door was so good that he was in a bad mood, so he didn't bother to answer, so he turned around and left.
"What's the matter with this guy!" Alex cursed.
"Wait..." Isaac looked at the crowd again, and found that many of them had books in their arms.
The adventurers are rough and savage, but most of them are literate. After all, this business can’t be mixed only by brute force. If you can’t read, you can’t even read the treasure map, let alone being deceived by black-hearted businessmen when you sell the harvest.
Adventurers criticized the overly gorgeous words and sentences in the continental travel notes published by the Bard Association, but the travel notes did often mention useful information for adventurers, and there was a certain market among adventurers; Isaac brought When he trotted to the bookstore with Alex, the store was full of people, and the business was no worse than that of the nearby tavern.
"Isn't this Mr. Isaac? This issue of "Travel to the Mainland" just arrived in the morning." The boss knew Isaac and handed over the brand new book with a smile.
Alex was illiterate, and stood at the door with a bored face and didn't bother to go in. Isaac paid the money and walked out to open it on the street. He was stunned when he saw the frontispiece of the first travel note.
The exquisite illustrations of the mainland travel notes are one of the selling points of this publication. The elves with superb drawing skills will draw special monsters on them. Many new adventurers rely on the illustrations in the travel notes to identify their prey.But it is the first time that the focus of the depiction is on the character, a character whose face is covered by a cloak and whose race cannot be seen.
As soon as I opened the content... Isaac stopped in his footsteps, and looked down the beautifully printed text in amazement, not willing to look away at all.
"What are you writing, Isaac?" Alex asked curiously after waiting for a while to find that Isaac was still unwilling to move.
"I wrote a very interesting story." Isaac said casually.
"Read it and listen to it," Alex said.
Isaac took Alex to the base of the bookstore's wall, and turned back to the beginning to read to Alex. There were no redundant descriptions, catchy words, and the smooth, straightforward and fast-paced plot quickly attracted Alex's attention. ; He usually has little patience in doing things, and he actually maintained a high level of concentration to finish listening to the not-so-short story. When Isaac read the last sentence, he was still full of emotion: "This is the end? Is there no more? This Who the hell is the man?"
"Not written." Isaac turned to the back, looked at it, and then turned it back, sighing lightly, "This travel note is really different. In the story, the recipe for a famous delicacy is completely written out, and the details are terrifying. No one else can learn the same."
"Who wrote this travel note? I really want to eat cold rabbit now. Why don't we go to that shop and queue?" Alex asked eagerly.
Isaac turned back to look at the frontispiece illustration carefully, and was taken aback for a moment: "Ayun from the snow wolf tribe...?"
"Sure enough, it's a travelogue written by the Snow Wolf Clan. I said that it is impossible for others to make such delicious food. Let's go, Isaac, and let's queue up." Alex became even more anxious.
Isaac raised his head and looked at his companions, he was very confused and unbelievable: "Aren't you curious, Alex, we all know that the Snow Wolf tribe can cook delicious food, but writing travel notes... Isn't this too weird?"
Alex stomped his feet: "Do you want to eat or not? If you don't, I will!"
In St. Bridge Palace, Prince Carlisle shook his head with a smile, and looked helplessly at Tim who came to him with the travel notes: "The teacher's style is really...too obvious. This travel note must be dictated by him and then sent to him." Written by the forest elves, only Mr. Ayun would be so ignorant of literature and artistry, and only care about whether the article can convey his thoughts and purposes."
"Next year's spices will sell well." Tim said with a smile what Carlisle couldn't say.
