Chapter 21 Diverting water into a lake, encountering a wizard on the road
"No competition!" Xiaona shouted, with one hand on her hips and one finger pointing at Kerry's nose, she said loudly: "I know how to be cool all the time. Brother Yaliqi just came back, he must be tired, and, you
"Are you, you three not going to eat?" He pointed at Kerry and the three of them and scolded them, but none of them dared to say anything.
"Uh..." Yaliqi was startled and thought to himself, "Why is Xiaona also practicing martial arts? Is she even more powerful than them?" Just as he was wondering, he heard Xiaona say again: "Yaliqi"
Brother Qi, are you hungry? Why don't I cook for you first?" These words were very gentle, and the voice was very sweet. It was absolutely the same as before. Not only Yaliqi, but also several other people
Everyone was stunned, and Xiaona seemed to feel that something was wrong with herself, so she quickly whispered: "I'm going to cook." She lowered her head and ran out of the house.
The remaining people in the room looked at each other and didn't know what to say. Yalic asked Kerry strangely: "Is Xiaona more powerful than you? Why are you so afraid of her?"
"What?" Kerry was stunned.
"Hahaha..." Ram and Lachi laughed loudly, Lachi quickly explained: "That's not the case, it's just because all our money is kept by Xiaona, and Xiaona can buy whatever we want.
Only with approval."
Yaliqi added: "Xiao Na is keeping it, aren't you afraid of being robbed by someone?"
"That's okay. This Donghai City seems to be a commercial city, and it's far away from the center of the mainland, so it won't involve various forces. The public security is very good. We also considered what you said, so every time we go out, it's me and Ram.
Together, Kerry and Xiaona together, Kerry's personal strength is indeed very powerful, Ram and I can't beat him alone." As soon as he said this, Kerry's nostrils immediately raised to the sky, but Yaliqi
It was also heard that Ram and Lachi would definitely not attack anyone alone. It was difficult to explain this. After hearing what Lachi said, Yaliqi seemed to be even more anxious.
"It doesn't matter, she's going to cook now. Let's go out. You just use your new trick, and we can compete with each other. It shouldn't be a problem!" Yaliqi looked outside and said.
Kerry thought for a moment with a frown on his face and said, "Okay, but let's make it clear first that you asked me to compete, not me. If Xiaona sees it, you have to take responsibility."
"Okay, no problem, let's go." Yaliqi and the four of them sneaked out of the yard. This place is quite secluded, there are not many people living there, and the place is big enough. There is a restaurant not far from the yard.
A beach, they arrived at this place.
"Okay, watch it, hehe." Kerry stood still and said to Yaliqi. Yaliqi quickly raised his hands to his chest and clenched his fists on guard. Ram and Laqi also sighed after looking at them.
Tone, because it seems that there is still no change in Yalic's fighting skills, and he still relies on instinct to fight.
Looking back at Kerry, I saw that he was holding the sword down in his left hand, and raised the fingers of his right hand to form a knife shape. He took a deep breath. From the top of the palm of his right hand, a little golden light slowly appeared, and then he heard and saw on the palm of his hand.
At this point, Yaliqi smiled and said: "Hey, Kerry, isn't this your golden light thorn? It's still an old trick, it can't hit me..." Before he could finish his words, he was stunned.
Already.
I saw that the ball of golden light was not immediately emitted by Kerry, but slowly floated up to Kerry's left shoulder, and then another ball floated to the right, and then slowly the body of Kerry
Covered with a layer of golden light, no wonder Xiaona said that he was acting handsome. This scene is really... extremely handsome. Kerry's whole body emits a faint golden light, and there is a ball of golden light on each side of the left and right sides. I'm afraid that look is not only good-looking.
, the sword in his right hand and the sword in his left hand were arranged, and Kerry smiled proudly and said: "Hahaha, I saw it, cool, this is my new move-golden light body bullet."
Yalic looked very surprised and said: "It's really amazing!"
"Watch the trick!" Kerry shouted in a low voice, and then he suddenly rushed up, waving his hand and two balls of golden light thorns shot out from his hands. Yalic also rushed towards Kerry, and saw the golden light spurting out.
Come, he raised the corner of his mouth, turned to the side, lowered his head, and dodged over. He didn't expect to hit Yalic with these two strikes. As he spoke, the distance got closer, and Kerry finally raised the sword in his left hand.
Accompanied by a "hissing" sound that broke through the air, it stabbed Yalic.
In Yalic's eyes, these few blows were not considered a threat, because at the moment when he started to take action, everything seemed to slow down in his eyes. He raised his fist and put it on his fist.
It was also wrapped in white light, and with a few "pops", it knocked the swords aside, and then punched them out, heading straight for Kerry's chest.
Ram and Lucky beside them thought to themselves, "Oops."
Sure enough, just when Yalich's fist was about to hit Kerry's chest, the golden light on other parts of Kerry's body suddenly disappeared, and his chest suddenly lit up. The dazzling golden light made Yalich instinctively close his eyes.
Eyes, and just as he closed his eyes, Kerry smiled, and saw two golden lights floating in the air above his left and right shoulders, suddenly pounced down, and with a "bang", Yalic's fist,
Hitting Kerry's chest, Kerry's figure quickly withdrew from the battle group with the strength, while Yalic was stabbed by two balls of golden light, and a golden light burst out with a "boom".
While they were talking, Ram and Lucky heard Kerry's "Ouch!" and quickly turned their heads to look, only to see Kerry lying on his back, yelling indiscriminately, and rubbing his chest with both hands.
I was shocked, and quickly looked at Yaliqi again. I saw the golden light dissipated, but it was a white light. I could faintly see Yaliqi's figure, and then the white light dissipated. Yaliqi was unscathed, holding Dexin.
Then he put it down and heard Yalic say: "Kerry, your move is really powerful. Haha, if I hadn't reacted quickly, I would have been seriously injured even if I didn't die."
Kerry saw that Yaliqi had not even messed up his hair, and shouted in surprise: "Impossible!" After his move, Ram and Laqi were not injured, but they were disgraced, so at this time
Can't help but make a sound.
In fact, Yaliqi was also frightened by this move. Although his eyes were closed at the time, he still saw two groups of golden thorns rushing towards him. He had seen the power of the golden thorns before, but
Just when the golden light thorn was about to touch Yalic's body, a white light burst out from his body surface to protect his body, so he did not hurt himself.
He still admired Kerry's move very much. After being blinded instantly, he used the opponent's strength to retreat, and then attacked the opponent with golden light thorns. It was a fantastic idea, but Yalic didn't do anything at all.
Kerry felt a little uncomfortable in his heart. In fact, he was overthinking it. Although military commanders and above would have the ability to protect their bodies on their own, they would never be able to protect their whole body like Yaliqi. If it were someone else,
If the golden thorn explodes at close range, it will definitely injure the opponent, unless it is someone like the Martial Saint who has the power to protect himself.
Compared with others, the energy in Yalici's body at this time is very pure in quality, and in terms of quantity, it has filled all parts of the body. Unlike others who only store martial energy in their martial hearts, this is what happened just now.
The reason why his whole body burst out with martial power, and in addition, because his body was too weak when he absorbed the energy of heaven and earth on the sea, the energy and his body also improved a lot, so even though Yalic's body was directly destroyed by Kai just now
Even if Rui's golden light stabbed him, there wouldn't be much damage. At most, it would be a skin injury. The reason why there was such a big movement was because he was nervous.
Ram had already helped Kerry up at this time. Although Yaliqi kept praising him for this wonderful idea, he also understood a weakness. Just like just now, Yaliqi's fist was protected by his
The physical martial arts blocked him, but due to his carelessness and the martial arts contained in the fists were too powerful, even though he got out of the way, he was still quite frightened. If he had been half a minute too late,
I was afraid that my chest would be punched through by Yalic. Thinking of this, I looked at Yalic with lingering fear and said secretly: "How did this guy practice? Why is the energy in his body so strong? I'm afraid he has reached
The military commander is at his peak."
As soon as the four of them walked into the yard, they saw Xiaona standing at the door of the house with an angry look on her face, and their hearts trembled. Sure enough, just when they were all going into the house, after Yalic entered, the three of them
He was stopped outside.
"Huh! Don't think I don't know. It must be you guys who are troublesome again. There is still some leftovers in the kitchen. Go and eat by yourself. You are not allowed to come in." After Xiaona finished speaking angrily, she turned around with a smile and said, "Come on, Yali."
Brother Qi, I cooked some special dishes for you..."
Several people in the yard stared at each other, even Yalic could only look at it with helpless expressions on his face.
The next day, Yaliqi got up early, and then took Ramlaqi and the two with him to the cargo station in Donghai City to see if there were any caravans heading west, so that they could go to Loland City together.
Just last night, Yalic had decided to go find Xiaona's brother, and then go home to tell Grandma Kerry the results of the trip.
As a result, the three people walked around but couldn't find it, so they had to go back. On the way, Yalic said: "How much money do you have in your hands now?"
"You have to ask Xiaona to know this. We usually don't spend much money. Even if we buy things, Xiaona always pays for it."
"Uh..." Yalic was completely speechless, it would be better not to ask.
After returning to his residence, Yaliqi expressed his wishes. Of course Xiaona was very excited. Originally, according to Yaliqi's intention, she wanted to sell the small yard before leaving, but Xiaona seemed to be more interested in this place.
Satisfied, he said: "It's okay if we don't sell the house! In the future, when we finish our work, it seems that living in this place will be good."
Due to Xiaona's persistence, the yard was not sold. Before she left, she asked a neighbor not far from their place to help take care of it. Of course, it was paid. The condition was that the house could be rented out before Yalic and the others came back. The rent was
Owned by this neighbor.
Everything was ready, and a few people set off. They had the experience of crossing the desert when they came, so they didn't buy horses when they came out of Donghai City.
After walking for a day, they finally arrived at a small village on the edge of the desert at nightfall. If they walked quickly, it would probably take another two days.
After resting here for a night, we arrived at the entrance of the village early the next morning and waited. Because there were caravans crossing the desert every day to do business, it was easy to pick up a small team for them. This team consisted of more than twenty horses.
More than half of the sand camels were loaded with cargo, and the others were carrying some water and food. It did not delay their ride, but it made Xiaona feel distressed now, because they had to pay each other a purple gold coin.
Only then did I agree to take them with me. After all, they only need a lot of water to drink.
After the caravan boss got the money, he was very proud. Although a purple gold coin was not much, he actually took them with him because he saw that these people were armed. Not only did he save the money to find guards, but also
Of course you will be very happy if you make money. This is called everyone seeking what they want.
The journey was uneventful, but when he passed the oasis and rested, what Yalic heard most was about the changes in the oasis.
"Hey, it seems that in another five years, no, three years, this oasis will disappear. By then it will be even more difficult to cross the desert."
"Yeah, it's strange to say that you said it was fine, but why is it getting smaller every year?"
"I heard people say that five years ago, when there was a black sandstorm here, it killed a lot of sandworms here, and the sandworms hated coming here. So even though the black sandstorms have stopped blowing these years, the oasis is still there.
But it is decreasing little by little, as if it was eaten by sandworms."
"Really? Is it that mysterious?" Some people didn't believe it.
"I don't know either. I heard it from others, but you'd better be careful when sleeping at night to avoid being bitten by sandworms." The person who spoke had a cautious look on his face.
After listening to this conversation, Yaliqi couldn't calm down in his heart. Now he is different from the stupid boy before. After undergoing Peiyuan Guling, his body and mind have been washed with the most energy, and his brain seems to have also
He has learned a lot and now knows how to deduce some things by himself. It cannot but be said that this trip to sea really made him completely reborn.
From what these people said, it seemed that this oasis had begun to become smaller since the few of them left, but at that time the only thing they took away from here was the 'Mo Lang' sword. Then Yalic thought about Hao Yi's
From some of the memories brought to him by the spiritual source, he knew that the black sandstorm was referring to Mo Lang, and the formation of the oasis was inseparable from Hao Yi's spiritual source. However, both of these were taken away by him, and the oasis became smaller day by day.
, it is indeed not a good thing for the businessmen coming and going. After thinking about it, it is still my fault. I don’t know if there is any way to prevent this situation from continuing. While thinking about it, I turned over and happened to see the middle of the oasis.
That small lake, but its appearance now is no longer what it was five years ago. The diameter of the small lake is now only twenty or thirty meters, but it was as big as a hundred or ten meters at the beginning.
Yaliqi thought for a moment and came up with a solution. It was late at night and everyone was already asleep. Yaliqi quietly came to the small lake and jumped in, but there was no splash at all.
rise.
After entering the water, Yaliqi moved his hands slightly and came to the bottom of the water. At this time, the lake was only about four or five meters deep. Yaliqi slowly squatted down, closed his eyes and put his hands on the bottom of the lake, feeling a touch of coldness.
The energy line slowly penetrated into the bottom of the lake from Yaliqi's hand. After a while, Yaliqi opened his eyes and had an idea in his mind. It turned out that there was an underground river flowing tens of meters underground.
However, when Hao Yi's spiritual source was here, it continuously attracted the aura of the river, causing the river water to gradually deviate from the river channel and penetrate here, forming a small lake over time. In the next five years, without the spiritual source to attract, the river water slowly returned to the river channel, and the lake water
It also slowly penetrated into the ground, causing the lake water to become less and less, which in turn caused the oasis to become much smaller.
Thinking of this, Yaliqi remembered that there is a trick in the Black Dragon Secret Technique, the "Water Diversion Technique", which was originally used to guide the direction of the undercurrent in the sea. He didn't know if it would work here, so Yaliqi silently recited the formula several times in his mind.
Then a burst of energy is separated from the body. If the energy can be seen, you will find that this energy is rotating in a vortex, and there is a trace of energy at the bottom of the vortex connected to Yalic's body, penetrating down the bottom of the lake.
, and soon Yalich felt the water vapor of the cold underground river from the other end of the energy group. Then part of the river water started to rotate with the vortex, and the speed became faster and faster. Then Yalich made a move, and the energy
The whirlpool brought the river water to the ground, and like a drill, it soon drilled out a hole with a radius of one foot, forcibly opening a tributary for the underground river, and then the river water rushed out from the bottom of the small lake "Bang"
"With a click, he rushed out of the lake and then fell. Yaliqi quietly came ashore from the other side. This was done. From now on, as long as the underground river continues to flow, this oasis will never shrink again.
After everyone woke up in the morning, they had something to eat and were ready to leave. The same people who were chatting with them yesterday heard them say again: "Are you paying attention?"
"What's the matter, Clark, why are you always babbling?" Another person said impatiently.
"Huh! I'm being careful. Look, the lake is bigger than yesterday." The young man named Clark said.
"I think you are crazy. Yesterday you said it was getting smaller and smaller, and this morning you said it was getting bigger and bigger. It's really boring."
"You...you...well...forget it, no matter how big or small he is, it has nothing to do with me." Clark shook his head helplessly. When will his advantages be discovered by everyone?
At this time, Yaliqi also became curious about the young man named Clark, because although the lake surface had grown, it was very limited. No one noticed such a large group of people. Clark was the only one who noticed it, so he had to let people know.
Marveling at his attentiveness, Yalic walked closer to this man intentionally or unintentionally.
After a day or two of getting familiar with each other, Yaliqi asked him: "Clark, I heard you say that morning that the lake in that oasis had become larger. I don't know how you discovered it?" To be honest, if it wasn't Yaliqi,
What Qi did, I'm afraid even he wouldn't be able to find out.
"You're talking about that! It's very simple. I went to the lake to wash my face last night before going to bed. I walked a total of 120 steps from the camp to the lake. But when I got up this morning, I only walked 113 steps.
We're here, seven steps shorter than last night." Clark was a little proud when he said this, and continued: "Either the place where we sleep has been moved, or the lake has become bigger, hehe, that's it.
It’s easy.”
"That's right, but why do you have to count your steps when you walk?"
"I don't know how to count. I just have a very strong memory. As long as I recall something I have done, I will feel like I have experienced it all over again. So I was just doubtful at first, so I recalled it, and then I remembered it correctly.
You'll know it right away!" Clark said nonchalantly.
But he didn’t know that his words had frightened Yaliqi. Is he still a normal person? Can a normal person count his own steps again in his memory? There are so many wonders in the world. When Yaliqi heard this, he also
All I can say to Clark is "You are awesome!".
Time is like the sea. You can't see it, but it exists and has its own rules. In the blink of an eye, a few days have passed. Yaliqi and the others have crossed the desert. Not far ahead is the city of Loland, but
What happened next made them worry again, because they had escaped from the city of Loland, and they didn't know if the soldiers guarding the city would recognize them. Yalich told everyone about this problem, but who knew?
The problem he was worried about was immediately solved by Xiaona.
"What do I think is the problem? They won't recognize us." Xiaona said with certainty.
"Why?"
"Oh, why are you so stupid? I was a little girl at that time, but now I am so big, who can recognize me?"
"Well, that's true, but you can't go into the city alone. Our changes haven't been that big." Only then did Yalic understand what Xiaona was talking about.
"That's right. It's better for people to recognize Kerry," Xiaona pointed at Kerry.
Kerry glared, and then thought about it, maybe he would be recognized by the other party because he looked so "distinctive", so he had to stay there in silence.
Xiaona continued: "The images of the two eldest brothers Ram and Lucky have not changed much, and the two big shields are really an eyesore."
Ram and Lachi looked at each other. At this time, everyone was thinking, "Does Xiaona really want to go to the city alone to find his brother?" But the next sentence made everyone understand what she was thinking.
What are you thinking about?
"You three just stay in this town, and I will go into the city with Brother Yaliqi." Xiaona said excitedly.
"Didn't it mean that the changes were not big? Why can he go?" Although Kerry knew that it was because Xiaona wanted to be alone with Yaliqi, he still asked jokingly to see what Xiaona would say.
"Oh, Kerry, you are really annoyed because Brother Yaliqi looks very ordinary." Xiaona said casually.
"..."
"Uh..." The reason was so real that Yaliqi had nothing to say, so everyone decided that Kerry, Ram, and Lachi would stay in the town, while Yaliqi and Xiaona went
Lorraine City.
The expected cross-examination did not appear, and even the guards at the city gate did not even look at them, which made Yalic feel relieved.
Then the two of them came to the place where Xiaona used to live, and found that the place had completely changed and turned into a bathhouse. Now it was Xiaona's turn to be anxious.
"Ah! What should I do? My little brother is not here, and there is no place to ask now." He looked like he was about to cry, and his eyes began to turn red. Yaliqi quickly advised: "It's okay, it's okay, you still have to ask."
Do you remember where the priest lived at that time? Let's go directly to him, he must know the whereabouts of our little brother." Yaliqi also thought of this in a hurry.
Xiaona said hesitantly: "Looking for the priest? Will he arrest us too?"
"No, I think the priest deliberately let us go. Otherwise, with our strength at the time, there was a team of warriors, how could we have escaped." This was what Yalich thought of later, but
The more I thought about it, the weirder it became. When I thought about it carefully, after a few of my people left the city, the other party did not pursue them. It looked more like they were going to drive them out of Loland City.
So Xiaona took Yaliqi to the Shenting residence in Loland City, which is what people often call the Shenting.
Yaliqi had never been to a shrine anywhere. The two of them turned around several times in the city before arriving. They just took a look at it and were a little disappointed. They saw that the street where the shrine is located is very quiet.
Even if it was quiet, there wasn’t even a passer-by. There were walls from beginning to end, so Yalic said: “Isn’t the Divine Court very powerful? Why isn’t the Divine Hall here so grand?”
"Shh! Keep your voice down," Xiaona whispered to Yaliqi: "Behind this wall is the shrine. The path we are walking on is not a street, but the aisle in front of the shrine."
"Ah!" Yaliqi couldn't help being surprised, considering that the shrine in Loland City is quite big, because they had just walked in from the entrance of the corridor for a while, but they hadn't seen the door of the shrine yet.
Woolen cloth.
Just when Yaliqi was stunned after listening to Xiaona's words, Xiaona said softly, "We're here!" Then suddenly turned and turned to the left. Yaliqi looked quickly and realized that it was on their left.
A small door was opened at the wall. The color of the door was the same as the color of the wall. Plus, he was in a daze, so Yaliqi didn't notice it.
After following Xiaona in, I saw a small yard here. The yard was filled with some flowers and plants. Only a small path paved with stones was left in the middle. Facing the path were three huts. Just next to Xiaona
When I was about to knock on the door, the door suddenly opened...
