Verse 25: Fortune of the Rock
The entire Western Desert is almost a vast desert. And the oasis is dotted like stars.
Terrans survive here, and they basically rely on the oasis.
West Desert, Shajing Oasis.
As a superior force, the Huang family has been located here for hundreds of years, occupying the essence resources in the center of the oasis.
Outside the oasis, there are some small forces that are attached to the Huang family as vassals.
Farther out, on the edge of the manhole oasis, there is a perimeter village. These mortals lived in poverty, had a large population, and were under the control of Gu Master forces such as the Huang family.
Among these villages, there is a Hanjia village. On the edge of Hanjia Village, there is a miniature natural grassland.
It is said to be a grassland, which is several times more desolate than the northern plains. The yellow sand is everywhere here, and the red dagger grass is separated from each other, the blades of the grass are sharp like swords, and the grass roots are stuck in the depths of the yellow sand, absorbing the meager water.
A group of children were bending over and scythe-wielding the grass.
These children, who are not even ten years old, have to go out to work to fill the household. This is the normal condition of mortal families.
The blades of dagger grass were sharp, and the children were almost all wearing leather gloves, except for one with bare hands.
The bare-handed child, dragging his nose, holding a sickle in one hand and skillfully grasping the dagger grass in the other, quickly cut off the leaves and put them in the small basket beside him.
The afterglow of the remnant sun was still scorching, and the children were panting and sweating.
Finally, as the twilight grew thicker and the sun sank to the horizon, only a small remnant remained, and the children stopped what they were doing.
"Let's go. It's nightfall, and the imp jackals are coming out to feed. One of the largest children spoke, as if he were the king of children.
"How much did you cut? Wow. A lot!" As is customary, they began to compare themselves with each other.
"I'm full today, so I have enough strength, hehe. ”
"But the grass you cut still doesn't have as much as Han Liduo. ”
"Hey, Han Li, you're so powerful. You can cut grass without gloves, and I don't see any wounds on your hands. How did you do that?" a little girl, with her pigtails. Asked.
Han Li smirked.
The children returned to the village in groups and talked excitedly along the way. When they arrived at the entrance of the village, they dispersed one after another and returned home.
Han Li also returned home. He pushed open the broken wooden door. It was found that neither parents had returned.
His father was a farmer who cultivated steel wool in the farmland at the west end of the village, plowing the land these days, leaving early and returning late.
His mother had a job that was the envy of the villagers. Every day, he would enter the outside of the oasis and do odd jobs for a small force Gu Master's family.
Han Li stood on the edge of a stone mortar and poured all the blades of dagger grass in his back basket into it. He then picked up a wooden pestle and mashed the blades of grass.
He works hard. After a while, he was sweating profusely.
After the blades of grass are pounded into a paste. He took out a sack, poured a small portion of the rice husks into the stone mortar.
He stirs these together to form a mushy food.
He dug it up and put it in a wooden basin.
Then he took the basin and went to the side room.
In the side room was a simple pens with three fat sand scorpions in the pens.
These sand scorpions were as fat as pigs, their chelicerae were not threatening at all, and after hearing Han Li's footsteps, the three fat sand scorpions quickly emerged from the shadows of the beast pen.
"Eat! I managed to cut it. Han Li turned the wooden basin upside down, and the mushy food inside fell to the ground.
Three fat sand scorpions gathered together, munching and humming.
"Eat, eat, eat, eat more, grow up quickly......" Han Li's small body was leaning on the fence, looking at these sand scorpions, muttering to himself.
This fat sand scorpion is not a Gu, just an ordinary bug.
But the meat of the scorpion is tender and delicious, and the proceeds from the sale of the meat after slaughter are a huge amount of money for a mortal family.
For Han Li's family, these three fat sand scorpions were the most important property. Therefore, Han Li didn't eat dinner himself, and he had to feed the three fat sand scorpions first.
Coo-goo-goo......
At this time, a cry of hunger suddenly came from Han Li's stomach.
Han Li jumped off the fence, rubbed his stomach, and immediately rushed back to the house to start cooking.
He has to cook for his parents every day.
The rice they eat is the most common sand rice in the Western Desert. This rice has a very poor taste and is difficult to swallow, but it is easy to grow and is a staple food for mortals.
Han Li was busy by the stove, not knowing that he had already been noticed, and inspected for a long time.
Black fell, and in the mass grave a few miles outside Hanjia Village, Fang Yuan sat quietly, like a sculpture.
This place was chosen because it is off the beaten track.
In the evening, after Fang Yuan came here, he urged thousands of reconnaissance Gu to shroud the entire Hanjia Village under his own surveillance.
The Gu Immortal True Yuan is infinite, as long as there are enough Gu worms, so it is a hundred times and a thousand times better than mortals to do things.
In the dark, Fang Yuan slowly opened his eyes and said secretly: "The age seems to match, it should be this kid." ”
While thinking, he urged the Five Turns to inspect the Gu Fortune.
Looking at it from afar, I saw a cloud of luck in the sky above Hanjia Village. The clouds of fortune are small, grayish-white, and exceptionally thin.
It's collective luck. These villagers have a sense of belonging, and they think that they are one with each other, so their luck comes together.
Fang Yuan looked at the lower end of the Cloud of Fortune again.
One after another, the smoke of luck rose from the villagers' bodies, reaching a height of fifty or sixty zhang in the air, and then plunged into the cloud of luck.
Between these lucky smokes, there is a particularly conspicuous piece of luck.
This luck was like a boulder, suspended above Han Li's house, only a hundred steps away from the ground. There are cracks on the surface of the boulder, and from the cracks emit a trace of luck smoke, showing a golden yellow color, all the way up, and the top of the smoke is also integrated into the collective luck cloud.
"What kind of luck is this?" Fang Yuan was amazed.
He did not receive the true transmission of the Fortune Dao, the meaning of the representation of the form of luck. It is also ignorance.
He named it Rock Luck.
Han Li was the only one in Han Li's family, and seeing this, Fang Yuan was already convinced that this Han Li was the one who would achieve the Seventh Transformation Gu Immortal in the future. The one who has been in a lot of adventures!
He looked over his head again, but he couldn't see anything.
"It's a pity, since I became an immortal, I can't check my luck, unless I get the Sixth Turning Luck Gu. I don't know what my luck is now?Is it still the luck of the black coffin?" Fang Yuan muttered a few words secretly, he had always been quite curious about his luck.
However, just as he was about to take out the Lian Yun Gu. Suddenly, a loud shout came: "Linghu thief, you are hiding here, can't I find out when my dignified fat lady! Old lady, I chased you for a full 80,000 miles." Hurry up and return my Immortal Yuan Stone!"
Fang Yuan was secretly taken aback, and hurriedly turned around, only to see a stream of quicksand condensed into a human form, shouting angrily at him not far away.
Fang Yuan's heart sank. He whispered, "Fat lady, you recognize the wrong person." I'm not the one you're going to hunt down. ”
"Fart! Linghu thief, who doesn't know that you are good at camouflage changes. You think that if you become like this, the old lady will not recognize you! You are not small, and you steal everything from the old lady. I'm going to beat your out for you this time!!"
Not only did the humanoid quicksand roar, but at the same time, there was a roar in the sky.
The sound was like thunder, resounding through the heavens and the earth. The entire oasis was instantly shaken and in chaos!
Fang Yuan's brows furrowed deeply. I didn't expect to disguise myself as a normal person and cover up my zombie appearance. But he was unexpectedly recognized as a thief who stole something.
He stood up and looked up.
I saw that in the northeast, the yellow sand was coming all over the sky, the wind suddenly rose, and the wind was like a beast's roar, constantly roaring.
The calm yellow sand on the ground is like a boiling sea at this moment, setting off stormy waves.
The huge waves of yellow sand are coming layer by layer.
Fang Yuan looked back and took a deep look at the Rock Qi Luck, then set off and took the initiative to move forward.
After a while, he saw the main master.
This was an extremely fat female Gu Immortal, with big shoulders and a round waist, like a water tank, stepping on the huge waves of yellow sand, looking down at Fang Yuan angrily and arrogantly.
She stretched out her fat fingers and opened her mouth to scold: "Linghu thief, you ......"
As soon as he spoke, Fang Yuan made a move!
"Heavenly Corpse Transformation!" Fang Yuan deliberately snorted, removed the disguised Gu worm, and revealed his immortal zombie appearance.
Suddenly, a monster that was three feet tall, with green fangs, eyes as red as blood, eight arms and huge claws, and muscular hair, appeared in front of the female Gu Immortal Fat Lady.
Hideous and terrifying, murderous and pervasive.
The fat lady was taken aback, and said again: "You ......"
Fang Yuan stepped on his feet, and with a bang, the ground was trampled on by him, and he was like a cannonball, smashing straight towards the fat lady.
Seeing that Fang Yuan was so fierce, the fat lady felt a pang in her heart, and hurriedly raised her hands.
Whoa, whoa, whoa!
Three huge sand waves immediately rose into the air, reaching hundreds of feet high.
The huge wave came over, Fang Yuan sneered, and the speed was urged, and he hit it directly.
Boom Boom!
In an instant, he broke up three monstrous sand waves and appeared in front of the fat lady.
The fat lady chuckled in her heart, and at this point she finally knew that she had recognized the wrong person. However, she was also hot-tempered, and Fang Yuan's viciousness inspired her anger.
"Let you also taste my fat lady's killer move--play martial sand armor!" she roared, and two streams of yellow sand poured out of her ears. The yellow sand quickly coalesced, enveloping her body.
In a few breaths, she turned into a sand giant that was not inferior to Fang Yuan's physique, but her body was still fat.
Fang Yuan rushed forward, and the sand giant roared, smashing his fists straight forward, and his bravery was unparalleled.
Bang bang!
With two loud bangs, the eight-armed immortal zombie and the sand giant fought each other with their fists.
The sand giant's fist exploded into yellow sand and dispersed. Fang Yuan's fists were directly fractured.
The fat lady took a step back, and the scattered yellow sand once again attracted to the sand giant's fist. Fang Yuan took a big step, his broken fists quickly recovered, and the remaining six strange hands slammed towards the sand giant.
Bang bang......
For a time, the two sides fought in close quarters, yellow sand flew all over the sky, and the sound of fractures was endless.
The more the fat lady fought, the more frightened she became: "What is the origin of this person in front of you? Why is he like a crazy demon, even more brave and arrogant than my fat lady!" (To be continued......)
