Chapter 61 Crossroads
It turned out that Ouyang wanted to ask Yang Yi, the "Erudito", to help translate a passage in Tauren language.
Ouyang wrote in the letter that a friend of his needed help, and they couldn't find anyone who knew the Earth language and the Tauren language of Azeroth, so they begged the Erudito to translate it.
Although he didn't say that he would be rewarded handsomely in the future, Ouyang's words were sincere, and he owed the favor.
"Knowing a little foreign language is really good. I showed off my language skills at the beginning, and not long after, a great master came to me for help. This job is easy to do. I can make the master owe me a favor by translating it. It's a business that can only make money and not lose money."
Yang Yi looked at the content that needed to be translated. This passage of Tauren text was written very neatly but rigidly. It was obvious that someone copied it down by copying it.
After adventurers come to Azeroth, they usually learn the common language of Azeroth first. After all, they can communicate with most races in Azeroth by using the common language. At this time, there are very few people who know a little Tauren language, and no one can be considered proficient.
This is a text similar to a letter of introduction. The content of the letter is roughly that the Tauren have discovered a strange power that is infiltrating the Barrens, and a Tauren named Turga Runetotem is already looking for the source of this power. Now this Tauren needs more help, so the recipient is asked to take the letter to the crossroads of the Barrens to talk to Turga.
Judging from the content of the letter, the recipient has established a relationship with the Tauren high-level officials, and the Tauren took the initiative to write to him for help.
"Oh, it is said that birds of a feather flock together, and the friends of masters are also masters."
This kind of translation is a piece of cake for Yang Yi. He picked up the paper and pen and wrote a crooked earth star text. He is not even as good as many elementary school students in writing earth star text.
Yang Yi sent the letter, and then went fishing on the pier after walking around the Murloc Village.
Two days later, Yang Yi was fishing on the pier while enjoying the cute and funny performance of Benbol Ba. The little guy was imitating various animals, and his performance was very lifelike, and even the troll hunter Talley and his snap-jawed turtle who were fishing on the pier were attracted.
"The construction of the village level 1 Murloc Tidewalker camp is completed. Complete the task of building a village level 1 Murloc Tidewalker camp within 10 days, and the reward is: one chance to draw a lottery."
"Let's go back."
Because the troll hunter was right next to him, Yang Yi did not draw the lottery immediately. He stopped Benbol Ba who was performing, and then took the little murloc back to the murloc village.
"The lord is wise!"
"The village chief is wise! Mula gaga gaga..."
As soon as he returned to the murloc village, he heard the praise of the village murlocs as usual.
The praised Yang Yi happily inspected the newly built village level 1 murloc tidewalker camp.
As expected, this Murloc Tide Walker Camp looks similar to the Murloc Beach Walker Camp.
A training ground was also built on an open space with wooden fences, and some plant dummies and obstacles were set up on the training ground. The difference is that there are several large wooden cages in the Murloc Tide Walker Camp, which are used to temporarily keep animals.
"Now arrange for the village's murlocs to catch some animals for backup. Catch more turtles, crabs, crocodiles and the like, and it's best to fill the cages in the village's animal taming pens." Yang Yi instructed the old blind man.
"Yes, lord."
"By the way, those crayfish people are more than one meter tall. When catching animals, bring them along and let them rush to the front as meat shields."
Yang Yi remembered that there were only 30 or so lobster people left in the village. These lobster people grew very fast. They were not yet adults, but now they are almost the size of adult murlocs. It's time to pull them out and "train" them well.
Now there are more fighting murlocs in Ratchet Village. Going out hunting no longer requires the whole village to go out in full force. It is time to organize a special hunting team to capture some animals alive and bring them back as the objects for murloc hunters and murloc tide walkers to tame animals.
"Hey, there are more and more murlocs in Ratchet Village. Whether it is the animals in the taming pen or the lobstermen, they all need to consume food, and the expenses are getting bigger and bigger."
Yang Yi began to worry about the food problem again. Ratchet Village needs to arrange a large number of murlocs to be responsible for foraging. Food has always restricted the development of Ratchet Village.
After avoiding the crowd, Yang Yi started to draw again, this time still using a small disc.
[Building Map: Algae Farm (Village Level 1)]
[Murloc Building]
[Construction Materials: Stone 50]
[Construction Requirements: 1 Level 1 Construction Worker]
[Building Function: Cultivate Seaweed]
[System Effects: Accelerate the growth rate of seaweed, increase the number of breeding seaweed seedlings, and increase the probability of algae-associated herbs. 】
"It's you! I've been waiting for you." Yang Yi kissed the construction drawing in his hand fiercely. The key construction drawing that he had identified as the solution to the food problem of the Fishman Village when the Fishman Village was just built finally appeared.
"Hurry up and ask the old blind man to arrange people to build an algae farm. When the seaweed grows up, it will free up a lot of manpower for the village."
Yang Yi handed the construction drawing of the algae farm to the old blind man, and then he carried a hard short bow, a high-quality heavy sword and a large package and left the Fishman Village alone while the old blind man was still excited about the construction drawing.
Yang Yi walked along the main road west of the Thorntooth Village. Not long after leaving the Fishman Village, he quietly hid in a bush.
"Dual form!"
Yang Yi shouted silently in his heart, and in a breath he turned from a murloc into a human.
After taking out the clothes from the package and putting them on, Yang Yi turned back into the sackcloth-clothed youth who fished at the Goblin Harbor Pier.
"I haven't worn clothes in Azeroth for several months, but the quality of this set of clothes is too poor."
Yang Yi looked at the sackcloth on his body. This set of clothes was stripped from the two humans who robbed the woodcutting murloc's big axe after killing them. At that time, the old blind man and his men were too heavy-handed, and the clothes were already tattered.
"It's better to have it than not, and most of the humans in Azeroth are dressed like beggars, so mine is not too bad." Yang Yi comforted himself.
After putting on the clothes, Yang Yi carried the package on his back and continued to move along the road. His goal was the important town in the Barrens - Crossroads.
It takes about three or four days to walk from Ratchet Village to Crossroads. Yang Yi didn't want to ride a turtle mount on land in a ostentatious way, so he walked.
Yang Yi traveled west along the road. He met many adventurers along the way. These people were hunting animals near the road, which was safer.
In addition to the adventurers, Yang Yi also saw several centaurs. The plains and oasis south of the road are now the territory of the centaurs.
The centaurs in the Barrens mainly live on nomadism. In order to compete for living space, they have been engaged in a protracted war with the tauren on this land.
Yang Yi hurried all the way and arrived at the crossroads at dusk on the third day.
The crossroads got its name because it was built directly at the intersection of two cross-south avenues in the Barrens. There are entrances and exits connecting the avenues on all four sides of the town.
The main residents here are orcs and tauren, in addition to some trolls and undead races.
Due to the convenient transportation at the crossroads, it has become an important supply station for travelers in the Barrens and is currently the largest town in the Barrens. .
