Mountain and Forest Kingdom

After Andrew took Lawrence for a while, he stood there.

"I won't go up there. The place you want to go is right there."

Two Dom sheep have stopped nearby and started grazing. These big guys are not particularly docile now, and they are especially disobedient when eating.

Unlike horses, these Dom sheep are much less intelligent.

Lawrence had already seen the place. It had been more than half an hour since he left Andrew's house, but it would take more than ten minutes to reach the top of the mountain ahead.

The big mountain here is not a mountain top, but a rugged mountain range with undulating heights, valleys and basins.

This is not deep in the mountains. If we were in the mountains, it would be easy to lose our way.

"Okay, Sophia and I will go take a look first."

Lawrence also knew that Andrew still had things to do, and said to the distraught Sophia: "Sofia, let's go."

"Yes! Master!" Sophia quickly followed with the bag on her back.

Her bundle contained the clothes and hat given by Salil, as well as bread and apples.

After Lawrence and Sophia left, Andrew quickly found a place to sit down and rubbed his right leg.

"He seems to be a nice person. If Salil can live with him, I can leave with peace of mind."

Andrew sighed, his daughter still didn't understand his good intentions.

"It's not a bad thing to have a slave. From now on, we can have someone to share all the things in the family. My daughter, Salil, I hope you understand this soon."

Lawrence used a wooden stick to push aside the obstructing vines. These vines rooted in the ground covered the road like a bedding. It was not easy to open a road here.

After trying for a few minutes, Lawrence could only step forward on these vines at a risk, using wooden sticks to carefully maintain balance.

"Sofia, be careful and don't fall."

Sophia quickly said: "Yes, Master, you should be careful too!"

Sophia has a young and flexible body and knows how to take the initiative to learn. She is very good as an assistant.

The two walked through the obstructive vine path and soon arrived at the decaying wooden house covered with plants.

The wooden house was not a very clean house a long time ago. After being abandoned for a long time, the roof here has long since collapsed, and even the windows have been occupied by plants. It looks like an abandoned open-air toilet full of plants.

Just one glance made Lawrence give up here decisively.

"No one can live here. We have to build a new house somewhere else."

Sofia looked around, "Where are we going?"

Lawrence was also thinking about this problem. In short, it was certain that the shabby house in front of him could no longer be inhabited.

And Andrew is right. He must find a place suitable for farming. In terms of living environment, wind, fire, water and soil must be taken into consideration.

"It should not be close to the mountain walls. It is best to be in a flat place, and not in a valley basin, otherwise it will be washed away by rain."

“You need to be close to the river water source so that you can easily get water and use it, but not too close or you will have problems with bugs and wild animals.”

"It is best to have a ventilated place with a wide view. There should be places where crops can be planted around it. You can see the conditions in the fields from the doorstep of your home."

"It is best to have plants and trees nearby so that materials can be easily obtained during construction. However, if it is too close, it will take more time to deal with underground root rocks during construction."

"It should be windproof, waterproof, snowproof, and easy to escape."

"The distance can't be too far. The sun should be bright in the morning. There is always a place in front and behind the house that can get light..."

Lawrence talked more and more. Sophia listened to Lawrence's request and said distressedly: "There are too many requests. Is there really such a place?"

Lawrence found that he had indeed asked for too much, "We don't have to do everything. Our first task now is to find a relatively suitable place. Although there may not be so many good places in the mountains, we can't be idle."

"Come on, Sofia, let's look around."

"Okay, Master." Sofia glanced at the dilapidated hut in front of her, and quickly turned around and left with Lawrence.

The environment here is not that good, and the wood in the ruins is basically unusable. It is indeed more suitable to find another place.

Lawrence and Sophia were looking for a place in the forest with sticks.

Most areas on the mountain are sloping slopes. Some places are exposed to the sun, some are rivers, and some are forests. There are few places that combine these.

As I walked, I felt a little tired.

Lawrence raised his head and saw the mountain scenery in the distance. There was a big mountain in the distance with white snow on it.

Compared with the scenery of several nearby mountains, the mountains over there are larger, taller, and more majestic.

Even by car, it feels like it would take more than an hour to get there.

Lawrence looked at the mountains in the distance and remembered what seemed like a lifetime ago.

This world is too backward, whether it is food or various things, it is beyond words. Living alone in a place like this suddenly feels very bitter.

After this idea came to mind, Lawrence felt even more tired, and his body seemed to have no strength.

"Master!" Sofia looked at Lawrence standing there and asked loudly: "Shall we continue going forward?"

Lawrence raised his head and saw the blond girl standing on the big rock on the hillside.

The beautiful blond girl, who is as lively and pure as an angel, is looking at her with questioning eyes.

Lawrence looked at the beautiful girl and looked away at the nearby mountain scenery.

Here there are blue skies and white clouds, green mountains and green waters, and the air is fragrant and fragrant, and you are free and free. You don’t need to worry about anything else except eating and sleeping. You have nothing to worry about.

This world is indeed not as good as Earth, but I have no other choice.

At least for now, it's pretty good. There are many places here that are not as good as Earth, but there are also some things that can be compared.

"Go back, eat, fill your stomach first."

Lawrence turned and walked down the mountain, and Sophia quickly climbed down from the stone and followed quickly.

"Master, wait for me!"

Sophia ran in front of Lawrence again. The view here was wide and there were no obstacles, and the way down the mountain was not difficult to find.

Looking at the young and energetic blond beauty, Lawrence felt much better.

"Sofia, did we find any animals along the way?"

Sofia said quickly: "I saw eagles and birds I didn't recognize."

Lawrence said: "That means we didn't see any rabbits or foxes. It seems like there aren't many animals here."

Sofia looked around and asked, "Has the master seen other animals?"

Lawrence smiled and said: "I saw what looked like a prairie dog's nest on the road, or it might be a rabbit. After we stabilize and find a place to live, we can come here to collect food."

"Okay!" Sophia also hoped to stabilize quickly.

Returning along the original road, the place down the mountain is obviously more suitable for living. Andrew's home is a very good place to build a house.

Lawrence couldn't help but think that if he married Sariel, that would indeed be the most suitable thing.

It's hard for one person to survive in a place like this, and it's a bit difficult for two people.

After he and Sophia join Andrew's family, they will have four laborers, and it will be easier whether hunting or farming.

When he returned to the door of the house, Andrew was chopping firewood, and Salyl was sitting in the sunny place in front of the door, knitting a blanket.

Women in this era must know textile technology and be able to make clothes and blankets for their families. Especially in this mountainous and forested area, blankets and heavy clothes are necessities!

Salil was wearing a heavy skirt, and Andrew, who was strong, was also wearing long clothes that wrapped his arms, similar to the cumbersome dress of the prairie people.

Lawrence himself was strong and strong in his youth, and it was only then that he remembered that the area he was currently in was a high mountain area.

But looking at Sophia next to him, she had no abnormal reaction like him.

Maybe it's because people from other worlds have better physiques.
