When a few people were in a stalemate, a group of figures appeared on the horizon again.
"stop."
The woman at the head was wearing a blue and black brocade robe that represented the Xuanhu lineage. She looked to be no more than forty or fifty years old. The short two words seemed to carry the power of heaven and earth, which made several people feel frightened.
"It is false that you can get additional inheritance by grabbing the opponent's dominoes in the secret realm. Please don't make this mistake."
Mrs. Xuanhu said something again, and then led everyone to leave lightly.
Lin Yu returned to Jiang Shuiyao's side, and Zhu Lang stood beside Mr. Shen again. The four of them carefully recalled what the woman said, and they still haven't recovered yet.
Zhu Lang thought for a long time, slapped his forehead and said: "I know! Before coming here, there was a rumor in Qingqiu Prefecture that the number of dominoes will determine the ancestor's choice of inheritance. There must be someone in the secret territory for this matter. A deadly battle broke out, which attracted the attention of the four major families, so they sent people into the secret realm to stop it!"
Jiang Shuiyao raised his brows and asked: "Since we are training in a secret realm, isn't it normal for people to die? What are those people worried about?"
Mr. Shen rolled his eyes and explained: "The secret realm will be opened every six years. The experience is true, but the main thing is to allow people from Qingqiu Prefecture to come in and collect resources. In the past few years, the secret realm was basically full of people. Be gentle and powerful together, and you will get results together. It’s just that this year is about the inheritance of the ancestors, and some people may have lost their temper and wanted to take the opportunity to interfere, so people from the four major families intervened."
Jiang Shuiyao said, "Wealthy families have many grievances, not to mention the four major families in Qingqiu Prefecture who have been with each other for many years. But these have nothing to do with him, so naturally there is no question whether he cares or not."
Jiang Shuiyao asked: "Do you still want to fight?"
Without waiting for Mr. Shen's reply, Lin Yu raised the tip of her sword and said in a cold voice: "If you want to beat me, I will kill you first. He can kill a Sword Master Jing. I don't believe that I am two levels higher than you in cultivation." , you can also kill me like him."
Mr. Shen's face was clouded, and he gritted his teeth and shouted: "Withdraw!"
Seeing Mr. Shen and Zhu Langyue walking away, Jiang Shuiyao, who had been smiling all the time, suddenly changed his face and spat out a stream of blood from his mouth.
Linyu was startled, and was about to reach out to help her, but the latter had already waved her hand, walked to the edge of the pool tremblingly, picked up two handfuls of water, rinsed her mouth, sat down on the ground, and said bitterly: "Don't leave anymore. , but I can’t pretend anymore.”
Didn't that astonishing arrow that jumped out of the tornado just now almost use up all the spiritual energy in Jiang Shuiyao's body?
Looking at the girl with lingering tears, Jiang Shuiyuan hesitated to speak.
Linyu bowed towards the river and said, "Thank you."
Jiang Shuiyao waved his hand, wondering in his heart whether it was right or wrong to return the dominoes to the two of them.
"I need to rest for a while, you go first."
After that, Jiang Shuiyao took out a few pills from Najie, swallowed them, closed his eyes, and adjusted his breathing. After three full days, Jiang Shuiyao slowly opened his eyes and let out the turbid air in his chest.
The eighth-level monk's performance in slaying the first-level sword master in the mirror is certainly good, but Jiang Shuiyao also suffered a lot for this. Besides, that sword contained too much luck. If the tornado had not dissipated after Ma Chu's death, it would probably I have to explain it by the Nuanshui Pond.
On the way to Huciao Mountain again, Jiang Shuiyao encountered four waves of robberies, all of which were to seize the domino. Unfortunately, those people's methods were mediocre, and the highest one was the nine-turn monk mirror. Jiang Shuiyao packed up the domino. A handy tip. Perhaps it was the news released by Mr. Shen and Zhu Lang, saying that a young man in red robe appeared in the secret realm and used the monk's mirror skills to fight the Yihejianjun and escape unscathed. This allowed Jiang Shuiyao to calm down for a few days. .
Most of the Jianjunjing monks in the secret realm belong to the four major factions. Naturally, they also know that it is not true that grabbing dominoes can obtain additional blessings. Occasionally, a few people met Jiang Shuiyao and only looked at him with a little curiosity, but did not say anything.
The thought of using force arises.
At the end of Liyuan is a canyon 40 to 50 feet wide. Across the natural chasm, there is the desert Gobi. Occasionally, you can see strange rocks standing upright, forming a stone forest.
One side is vibrant and green, the other side is covered with yellow sand. This kind of scene is absolutely impossible to find in Nanchengzhou where it is like spring all year round.
The river water is stepping on the soft sand and looking around from time to time. It is said that most of the Zhongyan states adjacent to Nanchengzhou are like this. The reason why there are still living creatures living there depends on an oasis or a summer rainstorm. Let’s go into detail.
Come to think of it, among the four major states in the world, except Nanchengzhou, which is the most livable, the other conditions are extremely cruel. If we talk about Nanchengzhou,
The only advantage of the other three states is that the environment that can be called purgatory has given rise to the strong vitality of the creatures and the characteristics that are unmatched by Nancheng state. For example, Zhongyan state has an extremely hot climate, which allows it to grow a species called cacti.
Eating the fruit is helpful for spiritual practice. When Jiang Shuiyao looked around like this, he was actually curious about whether there would be such a fruit in the Huangsha Gobi.
As Jiang Shuiyao expected, there was indeed a cactus fruit in this Gobi desert, but it was hidden under the yellow sand and above the center of the earth.
Jiang Shuiyao has been rushing through the Gobi for two days and still has no end in sight, and the water bag in Najie is dry, which means that the top priority is to find a water source for replenishment.
According to the map, there is a Fox Tooth Spring in the Gobi, which is the only source of water in this yellow sand. When Jiang Shuiyao rushed there, two people had already arrived at the Fox Tooth Spring and were sitting by the spring to rest.
In the past ten days, not only had the red-robed young man gained a reputation as a vicious man, but there were even more outrageous rumors that this human race boy not only liked to eat fox meat, but also liked to cut off other people's fox ears and pluck the hair, then skewer them on the fire and roast them. Two foxes
Seeing the river in the distance, the tribe fell silent for a moment, and one of the girls quickly put on an inappropriate velvet hat on her head, covering her ears, which she was usually most proud of.
Jiang Shuiyao had no idea about these rumors, so he filled up his water bag and sat aside, closing his eyes and regulating his breath.
After a while, a short-legged fox came running happily from a distance.
"Found it! Found it!" The short-legged fox danced in front of everyone: "There is really a cactus fruit in the desert. I found its approximate location!"
"Huh? Why are you all so sad?"
The short-legged fox's smile paused slightly. He looked at the companion in front of him who kept shaking his head like a mourner. Before he could continue to ask questions, Jiang Shuiyao had already reached a few people and said politely: "Brother, can you tell me about the fairy?"
Where is the palm fruit?”
After the short-legged fox saw the red robe, he screamed and plunged into the ground to escape quickly.
The other two people also instantly dispersed like birds and beasts.
Jiang Shuiyao was stunned, and then hurriedly caught up with one of the fox tribesmen and said loudly: "Why are you running? I don't eat people!"
"But you eat fox!"
The girl who was caught up by Jiang Shuiyao was crying, and the velvet hat on her head was swaying. If she hadn't heard that Jiang Shuiyao liked to eat fox ears, she would have transformed into her own body and used her hands and feet to get rid of this as soon as possible.
Devil.
Jiang Shuiyao felt funny in his heart. Except for the battle with Ma Chu, he had never killed anyone in the secret realm. Even the food he ate was dry food bought from Guyengyi. But where did this girl come from?
Saying that you eat foxes? What's more, eating foxes on the territory of the fox tribe, what's the difference between eating foxes and carrying a lantern to pick up dung?
Seeing that the river was chasing her in the distance, the girl gritted her teeth and transformed into the limbs of a fox, running fast to the ground.
"My meat doesn't taste good! Don't chase me!!!" The girl kept crying with tears flying down her face.
Jiang Shuiyao was angry and funny, and deliberately shouted with a straight face: "If you don't run away, I won't eat you. If you run away again! If you run away again, I will roast you on a skewer on the fire!"
The already extremely nervous girl heard the words "roast on skewers on the fire". Her limbs instantly softened and she stumbled into the sand. Jiang Shuiyao took advantage of the situation and picked her up. After looking around, he frowned slightly and said, "
If I don’t eat you, I’ll change back and talk nicely.”
The girl who had transformed back into a human body looked like she was only eleven or twelve years old, with tears in her eyes: "You really don't want to eat me?"
"Who said I eat foxes?" Jiang Shuiyao tapped her head gently.
"There is a red-robed human youth in the secret territory. He killed the Sword Lord Mirror with a monk mirror. Is it you?"
"yes."
"That young man in red robe also likes to eat fox meat. His favorite thing is to cut off people's ears and roast them and drink them. Isn't that you?"
"no."
"You're bragging! Why are you catching me if you don't eat foxes?"
Jiang Shuiyao said helplessly: "I heard you talk about the cactus fruit, so I came here to ask."
"What? You're going to take the cactus fruit and then cut off our ears?! Ouch! Don't hit us on the head, it's better to hit someone stupid!"
"I really don't eat foxes, and I won't cut off your ears."
"Then why should I trust you?"
"How do you believe it? How about I cut off your ears and bury them in the soil to prove that I really don't eat?"
The girl ran away again.
The two of them had just arrived at Fox Tooth Spring, and the two young fox tribe boys who had just escaped had reunited. After seeing Jiang Shuiyao, the god of death, one of the fat guys mustered up the courage and said: "Hey! Human! You want to eat
Just eat me! I have a lot of meat, which is enough to give you a meal. Can you please let them go?"
Jiang Shuiyao couldn't laugh or cry, and after patiently explaining it again, the three of them relaxed their vigilance slightly. The short-legged fox braved Jiang Shuiyao and sniffed around Jiang Shuiyao for a long time, and said firmly: "He doesn't smell like a fox, so what he said is true.
!”
The little fat man gave the short-legged fox a chestnut: "Then why did you run just now? You scared us so much that we ran together!"
"It's not too late." The short-legged fox looked aggrieved, then looked at Jiang Shuiyao and said: "You can go with us, but we have agreed in advance that the cactus fruit only has seven fruits, and you can only divide them among them.
Four, we have to give the other three to us, but we can’t occupy them all.”
Seeing Jiang Shuiyao nodding, the short-legged fox turned around and told everyone: "There is a big lizard next to the cactus fruit. Be careful and don't wake it up, otherwise we will all have to deal with it there."
The short-legged fox took one last look at Jiang Shuiyao and sighed: "Tsk, it's a good thing you're not like a fat guy."
Jiang Shuiyao didn't understand the reason at first, but soon understood what the short-legged fox meant.
One mile west of Foxya Spring, the short-legged fox led the three of them into the small tunnel he dug out. After crawling for about ten feet, the tunnel was connected to the monitor lizard passage, and the four of them could stand up and walk.
.After walking for another moment, a wide cave suddenly opened up in front of me. The short-legged fox made a silent gesture, took the lead to bypass the dozing monitor lizard, and pointed at the only trace in this space.
The green color indicates that it should be the cactus fruit.
The short-legged fox climbed up to the top of the spiky plant with brisk steps and plucked the fruit. Then he quickly returned and gave four to Jiang Shuiyao, one to each of the little fat man and the girl.
The little fat man looked left and right at the cactus fruit, feeling very happy. He just brought it close to the tip of his nose and smelled it. Unexpectedly, he was not used to the fragrance of the fruit, and he couldn't help but sneeze for a long time.
The monitor lizard suddenly opened its eyes and met the eyes of the little fat man.
