Chapter 56 Return to the Wilderness

Chapter 56 Return to the Wilderness
The last dinner before Rock's departure was with Robben's family. This time, Robben did not have a secret conversation with him in the study.

After the bosozoku were wiped out, the mayor was obviously more energetic, and he no longer had the helplessness and sorrow he had before.

At this time, Rock didn't underestimate the other party with his strength before, and the benefits of maintaining a good relationship with the Robben family all the time appeared.

The mayor of Robben promised him at the dinner table that if his land is productive and the quality is guaranteed, the government of Sunshine Town will give priority to purchasing his products.

It can be said that this solved the biggest problem for Rock in the initial stage, and now he can focus on land reclamation for the time being.

When parting, Rui suddenly took out a box from the room and handed it to Rock.With a proud expression on his face, he said mysteriously.

"This is my gift. I guess Mr. Rock never thought of it. It might be the most useful."

Opening the box suspiciously, Rock was pleasantly surprised to find a brand new black laptop inside.

"Hey, this is the latest version of the laptop computer from Silver Company. I have downloaded a lot of game movies and some detailed information in it. I think you will definitely use it."

"Hahaha, this computer is really useful, I already think I will use it a lot, your gift is really great!"

The gifts received today were all useful, but the computer Rui gave really surprised Rock.

After returning to the room, I spent an exciting but dull night. The next day, Rock packed up his equipment before dawn, and set off early with the two elves after breakfast.

"Hiss~~ha!"

Rock, who had returned to the field, took a deep breath. The moist and cool air in the morning filled his lungs with the fragrance of grass and trees, and he breathed it out comfortably.

Bay Leaf is also very happy, jumping and running around on the road, sometimes licking the dew on the grass blades on the roadside, and sometimes sprinting forward for a certain distance to vent its vigorous energy. The saddle bag on its back does not affect its actions at all.

"Baili~baili!"

Bay Leaf, who left the road and ran far away, seemed to have discovered something, and loudly called Rock and Arbor.

"What's the matter, eh? Bay leaf what are you eating?"

Rock came closer and found that Bay Leaf's cheeks were bulging and moving.

"Mhhhhhhhh"

While chewing the bay leaf, he picked off two pale yellow flower buds that were about to bloom with two vine whips, and handed them to Rock and Arbor.

"Is this what you eat?"

Rock picked up the buds and sniffed, there was an elegant fragrance.He curiously put the flower buds into his mouth, the taste was slightly sweet with a hint of bitterness.

The plant with flower buds is a small cluster of shrubs. A pair of round leaves at the top of the branches of the shrubs are combined to form a disk. In the center of each leaf disk, there are more than a dozen yellow or orange-yellow tube-shaped flowers that are almost eaten by bay leaves. Empty.

"This is? Honeysuckle with leaves!"

Since he was about to start reclamation, Rock had learned about some plants suitable for pasture. This bush was very similar to a plant he had seen before.

Rock looked around, and this place should be an abandoned ranch.This clump of honeysuckle with leaves should have been planted by the previous farmer, but I don't know why there is only this clump left in the vicinity.

Seeing that the bay leaves had eaten all the flowers, Rock asked curiously.

"Bay leaf, do you like this?"

"Yeah!"

Bay Leaf, who was looking for a new plant, nodded immediately, and licked her lips with some insatiable desire.

Seeing this, Rock took out a shovel from the bay leaf's saddle bag, dug up the clump of honeysuckle leaves, and put some soil into an empty tree fruit bag.

Putting the fruit bag containing honeysuckle in the saddle bag, Rock patted the bay leaf on the neck and said to it.

"We dug up this honeysuckle plant and planted it on our land, so that you can eat your fill."

Bayleaf walked a lot more carefully when she heard the words, for fear of damaging her delicious food in the future, but it didn't take long before she reverted to her old ways and jumped up again.

In contrast, Arbor is much more stable. Although it is hidden in the grass, Rock, who has a heart, can feel that it has been wandering around himself and the bay leaf.

The morning sun is warm and warm, and a few early-rising Bobos are pecking at a green caterpillar that is also early-rising.

In the morning light, Rock felt that every cell in his body was jumping for joy, and his pace accelerated a lot unconsciously, striding forward.

The road just out of Sunshine Town was relatively easy, but after walking for a morning, Rock came to a stretch of mountains.

This is a branch of the Yunhui Mountains. The Yunhui Mountains straddle the northwest of Sunshine Town and the northeast of Viridian City. Part of the Rock Land includes the southern branch of the Yunhui Mountains.

Since it was heading in the direction of the mountains, the road up the mountain was relatively easy. Rock inspected the road conditions between his own land and Sunshine Town while walking, and it looked pretty good so far.

After going up the mountain, the vegetation gradually became denser, and there were a lot more tall trees. Rock looked at the navigator and found that he had already walked forty kilometers.

Looking up at the high sun, he decided to stop for lunch and rest.

Following the bay leaves to find a small stream, Roque put down his backpack and the bay leaves, and then washed his face with the stream water.

He leaned against a big tree by the stream, watching Arbor and Bayleaf playing in the cool water.

After resting for a while, Rock stood up and started preparing lunch.

"After work guys, bay leaf is going to pick up some dead branches and come back, Abo blames you to go around and see if you can find prey."

After arranging the tasks of the two elves, Rock found a few stones from the stream and piled them on the bank.

Then he took out the pot from the luggage and washed it briefly in the stream. At this time, the bay leaf had already been brought back with a large bundle of dead branches tied to his back with a rattan whip.

"Thank you for your hard work. Help me clean up the grass and you can wait to eat."

The sharp blades of the scythe leaves on the top of the bay leaves converged, and then the knife flashed, and a piece of grass was cut off by its joint chops.

Rock built a round bonfire with stream stones in the cleared space, and then took out a lighting stick from his pants pocket.

He also pulled out a small silver knife from the scabbard at his waist. The short knife given by the proprietress was matched with two side knives, one for cutting meat and the other for sharpening the knife.

At this time, what he pulled out was the side knife used to sharpen the knife. Rock rubbed the rough back of the knife against the tinder, and a large number of sparks burst out and ignited the tinder.

Immediately afterwards, the dead branches were also ignited, and the flames burned vigorously.

At this time, Arbor happened to return from the nearby forest with two fat Ladas in his mouth.

 I'm working late today, so I'll update it
