Chapter 32 The Adventures of Ice Mining

With the kobold troops and the active performance of the kobold leader Cook, the horse herd was hunted and killed in large numbers and turned into raw meat resources. And two of the strongest and healthiest ones were driven all the way to the base animal pen.

After the successful domestication, Jia Zhengjin got two very docile money horse vehicles. He made two special saddles out of animal fur and plant fibers, which fit directly into the grooves of the horse's back.

Because of the need to transport ice and snow, animal fur and plant fibers can separate the temperature. And the concave hump on the back of the horse itself also has the effect of heat preservation, which can ensure that they will not be unbearable due to the low temperature of ice and snow.

After the money horses are trained as vehicles, in addition to the large humps, a virtual backpack is also added to store more things.

In this way, even if ice and snow cannot be superimposed in the virtual backpack, they can only occupy each grid one by one. After one trip, Jia Zhengjin's own virtual backpack, together with the virtual backpacks of the two horses and the giant concave hump on the back, are enough to build a large enough ice storage cellar!

"Tina, be careful!" Bringing the two ponies in front of him, Jia Zhengjin made them squat down, and then sat in the groove on the back of one of the ponies with Tina in his arms. Just like sitting in a carriage, it is quite comfortable and stable.

The kobold leader, Cook, also climbed into the groove on the back of another gold horse, and the remaining twenty kobold warriors and kobold slingers walked behind the two gold horses.

"Let's go!" Jia Zhengjin gave an order, and the two horses got up immediately, dragging the two people and the dog and began to move forward slowly.

The advantage of the vehicle is that it can barely be a cameo mount.

"Giggle~~" Sitting on the back of the pony horse, Tina happily held Jia Zhengjin's arm, laughing like silver bells in the beautiful scenery around her. As a commoner, she rode this powerful creature for the first time in her life. Generally speaking, no matter how docile a commoner is, a creature like a horse cannot fight it, let alone tame it.

Only the army or private armed forces can subdue them by force, but domestication is also very difficult. Therefore, in the kingdom, only very noble people are qualified to control it.

Of course, they will build a small room similar to a carriage on the horse, instead of just covering it with a layer of fur.

"Is Tina happy?" Jia Zhengjin stretched out his hand to gently comb her blond hair that was blown by the wind.

"Kaixi!" Tina understood the simple words, so she squinted her eyes and answered.

"It's happiness, not Kaixi!" Jia Zhengjin corrected.

"Casey?"

"Okay!" Jia Zhengjin was helpless, it was very difficult to correct Tina's accent.

Climbing to the mountains is not an easy task, especially when the altitude is so high that it is covered with ice and snow all the year round. Fortunately, there was a strong money horse carrying them, and Jia Zhengjin, Tina, and Kobold leader Cook didn't waste any energy.

The kobold warriors, kobold slingers, and kobold patrols who followed behind were rather pitiful. After reaching the top of the mountain, they were out of breath and almost tired.

"You rest on the side, and pay attention to vigilance at the same time!" Jia Zhengjin was not so cruel, so he gave the kobold a chance to rest.

It took a whole morning for the group to reach the top of the mountain safely. Maybe it was luck on the road, so I didn't run into any dangerous creatures. But we can't take it lightly, Jia Zhengjin knows that in this vast forest that can't be seen at a glance, there are almost fatal dangers everywhere!

"Tina, Cook, the three of us mine ice and snow!" Jia Zhengjin gave Tina and Cook a stone pickaxe, and took one for himself.

"Muxiu!" Tina yelled cheerfully, and gently tapped the ice cubes on the spot with a stone pick.

"Be careful, don't slip and fall!" Jia Zhengjin instructed, although Tina still couldn't understand the untaught words.

Two people and one dog started to get busy,

Mine the ice from the top of the mountain vigorously.

Tina's physical strength was poor, so she stopped to rest after a while. Jia Zhengjin simply asked her to look at the twenty-one kobolds.

Jia Zhengjin himself and the leader of the kobolds desperately mined ice. As the time spent at the top of the mountain increases, the body temperature gradually drops. Even though he was wearing leather clothes, his body couldn't help shaking.

There is a fiery sun hanging in the sky tomorrow, but the temperature just won't go up.

Fortunately, after two hours of hard mining, the virtual space of the money horse and the concave hump on its back were filled with ice. Jia Zhengjin's own virtual backpack was completely filled with ice.

When he was about to go down the mountain, Jia Zhengjin remembered that there were ice blocks on his horse's back, how could he sit on it?

In the end, I could only walk tragically. I knew I shouldn't have brought Tina here.

For a few hours' journey, Jia Zhengjin himself said that he should be able to persist. It's just that Tina's weak body can support her home?

It's useless to worry, you can't throw away the hard-earned ice, right? At worst, when Tina couldn't walk anymore, she and the kobold would alternate carrying her down!

A group of people returned the same way with the ice cubes, and they were expected to arrive home on time about an hour after the sun went down.

"Tina, are you okay?" Halfway through the walk, Tina felt a little weak. Jia Zhengjin stretched out his hand to support her, and asked worriedly.

Tina couldn't understand, so she could only guess what Jia Zhengjin meant. She smiled, and then replied a foreign language that she didn't know the meaning of.

The two people were not right, and this time they failed to match.

But Tina obviously walked slower and slower, and her face gradually became tired and pale.

When Jia Zhengjin was heartbroken, he simply used his tired body to carry Tina on his back.

"Pumarixiu?" Tina seemed to be worried that Jia Zhengjin would not be able to bear it, so she asked.

"It's okay!" The general meaning of this sentence, Jia Zhengjin guessed, was similar to what he asked just now, "Don't worry, my physical strength is fine!"

"Oh~~!" While speaking, the kobold patrol who had been running at the front and responsible for the investigation suddenly let out a warning scream.

Before Jia Zhengjin could react, the next moment the patrolman was thrown down by a white figure, who bit his throat.

"Ah!!" Tina was terrified and slipped off Jia Zhengjin's body.

"Defensive formation!!" Jia Zhengjin yelled hastily, and the kobolds around him immediately gathered to protect the two humans and the two horses.

"Aw~~!" The kobold leader Cook raised his ebony staff and gave a warning roar to the suddenly appearing beast.

"Roar~~!" The ferocious beast was not affected at all, but instead opened its bloody mouth and roared louder at the Kobold Cook.
