Chapter 53: New Clothes (1)
It is the severe cold winter at this time, the forest is covered with snow and the mountains are extremely clear.
The five masters and servants hurried on carefully. Xuan Yi suddenly asked Wu Xin on Ti Long's back: "Xiao Wu, where is your mount? Why can't I see you riding it?"
Wuxin replied: "Miss, he had something to do at home, so he went home first. Besides, when I go out to practice, how could I bring such a helper and delay my cultivation of Taoism!"
Xuan Yi nodded: "What you are saying is that when you go out to practice practice, how can you always ask others to help rescue you? You also need to improve your practice quickly to deal with crises!
You, Xiao Wu, woke up your sister with just one word. How can I reward you?"
Wu Xin thought for a while, although he wanted to get Mo Xin back now, Mo Xin was important and extraordinary, so asking for it now would be a little abrupt, and then he shook his head and said: "I haven't thought about it yet. When I think about it,
Talk to the lady again!"
Xuan Yi nodded and said "ok".
"Look at the mountains in front of you. Half of them are red and bright, and half of them are covered with wind and snow. I think this is the intersection of the two worlds. If you hurry up today, you may be able to cross the mountains and find a small town to spend the night!" Guijiu, who was exploring the road ahead, turned and shouted.
This realm of fire also has its own unique features. There is only a mountain range between the two realms, but they are two worlds. One realm has dazzling mountains and four distinct seasons; the other realm is as red as a furnace and is unbearably hot!
Pengpeng said with some worry: "Miss, the Ghost Shadow Department failed last time, and the demon saint they sent has not returned. I'm worried that they will leave someone at the junction to take care of them!"
When Xuan Yi heard this, he was also worried. When he came to the mountain, he stopped and looked up: "What a beautiful mountain, with snowflakes falling on one side and red flames on the other!"
Just like our trip, although it is difficult, we have to do it. Good fortune and misfortune depend on each other, and we cannot avoid it, so let’s keep on trying!"
Immediately, the five people braved the wind and snow and carefully crossed the half of the cold mountains, but they did not encounter anyone blocking them. When they were happy, they saw from a distance a quiet cottage at the bottom of the mountain on the other side of the Red Mountain.
Di Long shouted excitedly: "I can finally get out of this damn winding mountain road, but I'm exhausted. I've been hungry and cold all day, and I'm almost skin and bones."
Xuan Yi also felt pity for everyone after hearing this: "There is a village there, let's go and take a look and buy some grain to improve the food. We are a little tired of eating meat all day long!"
Wuxin smiled and said: "It all depends on Miss, but I advise everyone to be careful. There are all kinds of monsters and ghosts on the road. You just have to be careful not to harm others and to be on guard against others!"
Xuan Yi smiled and said: "I know, I know! Why are you so old-fashioned, baby? Could it be that some old monster has been reincarnated as a human? Haha..."
He didn't answer the question unintentionally, but Pengpeng replied: "Humph! He is not the reincarnation of an old monster, but he is possessed by a human spirit!"
Wuxin looked embarrassed when he said this, thinking: "This Pengpeng sees things through but doesn't say anything, but she also tries to bully me with words. Wait until I find an opportunity to tease and discipline her, hehe!"
Everyone climbed over the snow-capped mountains and rushed straight down through the fiery red mountains on the back, not daring to stay for more than a moment.
When we reached the bottom of the mountain, we saw a forest of dead trees and iron trees all over the place. There was a village house beside the forest. When we got closer and looked closer, we saw several thatched huts and a small sloping bridge.
There are red orchids growing beside the fence, which have a pungent fragrance.
The five people walked to the cottage and were about to call someone when they heard a creaking sound. The door opened from the inside and a thin old woman walked out. She looked very energetic.
He raised his head and asked: "You guys, how come you are here in this hot weather, and you are not afraid of dying of thirst on the way?"
The old woman turned her head and looked at the clothes of these children. They were in tatters and were not in ordinary clothes.
Then he asked, "You have just come over from Shitou Realm. Come in and have a rest. You don't have to make any preparations for a new arrival!" Then he turned away and let them in.
"Thank you, mother-in-law, we came all the way from the east. It was very dangerous, so it looks a little messy now!" Xuan Yi politely replied to the old woman, and then led the four of them into the cottage.
Hearing this, the old woman nodded and asked again: "You must be hungry, I only have ordinary food here, I wonder if you can get used to it."
Xuan Yi hurriedly said: "You're used to eating, you're used to eating! We're almost tired of eating meat all the way in the mountains, so we thought we'd come to your place to eat some food to detoxify ourselves."
The old woman said: "Then I will prepare for you to go. Although this realm of fire is not as vast as the realm of stone and stone, it is not easy to walk in this realm.
You have to bring plenty of food and water with you, as you can’t go far because everything you encounter is desert, and it’s not easy to find water on the road!”
"Mother-in-law, do you know why this fire world is like this?" Xuan Yi asked curiously.
"Most people in the world say that this world is the place where the God of Fire fell. His majestic power has not diminished for thousands of years, so this land continues to be red and hot all year round. It is difficult for outsiders to adapt!"
Xuan Yi said again: "I see, mother-in-law, when we eat your food, we should give you money, but seeing that you live alone here, I wonder if the money is of any use?"
If it's useless, you can see what we can do for you as a reward."
The old woman smiled and said: "Little girl, you don't have to give me money, it's of no use to me! Just eat, and be sure to give me any reward!"
Wu Xin advised from the side: "Mother-in-law is kind-hearted, but we juniors should not eat your food for free. You must tell us what work needs to be done at home, so that we juniors can fulfill our filial piety, and we can feel at ease when we are on our way!"
When the old woman heard what he said, she smiled and said, "What a clever kid! I'll talk to you after I've prepared the meal and sit down!" Then she walked away and went into the house to get ready.
The old woman scooped up a basin of rice and put it into the pot, and brought it out from the kitchen half an hour later.
There was a pot full of steaming rice, and some delicious side dishes were fried along the way. The few people who ate were very satisfied and couldn't help but praise the old woman for her craftsmanship!
But after several people had eaten, Xuan Yi asked: "Mother-in-law, we have eaten so much of your food. I feel really sorry for you. Do you want to tell us what kind of work you have at home so that we can do it for you?"
The old woman laughed and said, "I know you are all filial children! I'm not being pretentious. I really have a job that you might be able to help with!"
Xuan Yi: "Then tell me quickly, what kind of job is it?"
The old woman continued: "I like making clothes, but it's hard to find this kind of fabric and leather.
I wonder if some of my friends could go on a trip for me and find some leather clothing materials for me!"
When Xuan Yi heard this, he patted his chest and said easily: "It's so simple, leave it to us. We will go to the mountains to catch some jackals, tigers and leopards, skin them and bring them to you!"
The old woman added: "It's not the skins of ordinary beasts. On the mountain to the left on the way you came here, there are some floating beasts on that mountain. Their skins are perfect for making leather armor and clothes!"
But it’s hot and cold there, I wonder if you can bear it?!”
Everyone was a little surprised when they heard this. Then they saw that there was indeed a machine used for making leather armor and clothes in the room. They looked at each other, then got up and left the cottage together.
This is not difficult to do. The Void Floating Beast is rare to see. It is also a kind of monster. Although it can also practice cultivation, most of it is not aggressive.
With their ability, it would not be a problem to catch a few of them, but they suddenly felt that there was something unusual about this old woman.
You must know that the skin of this virtual floating beast is extremely tough and extremely elastic. A practitioner in the Mysterious Heart Realm cannot break through their defense when faced with a virtual floating beast of the same realm.
It's easy to catch, but it's not easy to process it and make it into armor.
But since they agreed, they didn't think much about it and hurried out.
Not long after, when I arrived at the top of the mountain, I saw a group of mysterious floating beasts wandering in the place where ice and fire met. There were about ten of them, colorful and very beautiful!
"Why does this virtual floating beast look like this and have so many colors?" Wu Xin asked curiously.
Di Long was the first to speak: "Xiao Wu, you are really ignorant. Although this virtual floating beast is difficult to find, it's not like you don't even know about it.
This beast is called "Void Floater" because it wanders around in the void like the one floating in the water, feeding on the rich source. The energy of the source condenses into the skin surface to improve defense.
They rarely enter the star realm, but occasionally some small beasts will come out of the void due to cracks in the earth and be found, which is not uncommon."
"So there are such magical creatures!" Wu Xin sighed.
"The Void Floating Beasts in the Mysterious Realm are almost not aggressive, so don't worry, but if you are unlucky enough to encounter a Void Floating Beast in the Saint Realm, it will be a disaster for those who are below the Saint Realm!" Di Long continued.
Wu Xin wondered: "Why?"
"Because the mouth of the Void Floating Beast in the Holy Realm will grow even bigger! It can bite people..." The Orange Lao San ran in front, turning back and talking to everyone in detail as he ran.
But he suddenly found that the four people had stopped moving, staring straight at him. The Wuxin asked in horror: "How big is the mouth?"
Ju Laosan continued to walk forward proudly, turning around and gesturing with his hands: "It can be as big as a water tank!"
"Be careful! You have a mouth as big as a water tank in front of you!" Xuan Yi shouted urgently to him to be careful.
Di Long was also shocked. He turned around and saw a huge black mouth coming towards his face: "Damn, it's so big!"
Then he turned around and ran away.
Fortunately, he reacted quickly enough, otherwise he would have been swallowed in one gulp.
Ju Laosan fled far away before he regained his composure and said, "I'm sorry, how come there are floating beasts from the Holy Realm here?"
"How can this beast hurt people?" Wuxin asked quickly.
Di Long shouted loudly: "This holy realm void floating beast is extremely fast and can bite people with its mouth. Its mouth is connected to the void, and one bite can separate your flesh and blood!"
"It's so powerful, how do you catch it?" Wu Xin asked again.
Xuan Yi said from the side: "Soul attack! Although this beast has a strong skin, its brain is not very good. Just use the soul attack to knock it out!"
"But I can't!" Wu Xin said helplessly.
"Just watch from the sidelines!" Xuan Yi replied, then took out the Tunyun pipe, kicked up his legs and flew up!
She inhaled two puffs of thunder smoke, formed a seal with one hand, and formed a soul-eating thunder array with two puffs, trapping the holy realm virtual floating beast.
