The oil slick had become very thick, a bit like a cell coat.

The body of the water mirror, on the other hand, becomes very small. The inside was undulating, and the water was so turbulent that it was like a dying struggle.

But this struggle did not affect the thick oil slick that wrapped it in the slightest.

Liu Xiaohua had a hallucination. It was as if what she saw was a one-on-one predation.

When she looked at it before, the water mirror grew in size as she absorbed the spirit, and it seemed to be at an advantage, but now it was completely at a disadvantage, like a sheep under the claws of a lion and tiger, let it be harvested.

Liu Xiaohua couldn't understand what was going on at all. Is the water mirror evolving in this way, or is it being completely devoured by another being?

But she also knew that whatever it was, the oil slick didn't seem to do her any harm.

Because she had been exposed to the oil slick before, the oil slick did not cause any damage to her. It's more like just using the water mirror as a source of nutrition.

But if it was really a devouring, Liu Xiaohua didn't know what would happen when it completely digested the water mirror.

She tried to reach for the oil slick again. This time, she was immediately greeted by an oil slick. The other party wrapped her hand at a very fast speed. Immediately she took the form of a god.

None of the qiē in the confines of the Lingtai were affected.

Liu Xiaohua felt that she tried her best to absorb the spirits, which might be helpful to the water mirror, and after absorbing all the spirits in the range about the same, she returned to the space of the water mirror again, but she found that this time the water mirror did not get bigger at all.

What got bigger was the oil slick.

Not only has it gotten bigger, but it has also grown many fibrous hairs inside. Like human capillaries.

After Liu Xiaohua withdrew from this space, she immediately tried to control the spirit. After confirming that the spirits he controlled were not affected in any way, Liu Xiaohua confirmed that this might really be an evolution.

Like many animals, they eat their own shedding of their own skins and shells. The evolution of the water mirror is eating the useless parts as its own growth nourishment. Because its essence is still a water mirror, it is her spiritual platform, so it has no effect on her.

But she had no idea what triggered this evolution. It's like not knowing when this oil slick appeared.

And on the second day, during the spirit control practice along the way, the originally stalemate of the battle situation suddenly made unexpected progress.

Liu Xiaohua's spirit itself has no color, it looks like water, completely transparent, and the light is relatively weak.

This group of spirits, the day before, although they knew how to follow the instructions, could not go fast. It was completely on the ground, slower than the old lady with a pestle and a cane.

After Liu Xiaohua gave the order today, she stood to the side blankly, watching it move forward at a speed of a few minutes and a centimeter, she was completely speechless, and she didn't do anything. But just when she was about to give up, she never expected that the spirit suddenly rushed forward at the speed of lightning.

Of course, I didn't pounce on the rabbit, but I did pounce on the butterfly, and I made the mistake of plopping the butterfly to a pulp, overpowering a weed. But that's enough to make everyone happy.

Whether it's wrong or not, it's rotten or not, at least it's something to pounce on.

This achievement immediately gave everyone confidence again.

They all firmly believe that in the near future, they will be able to pounce on rabbits or other small animals, and everyone will soon be able to eat fragrant barbecue.

But in the next few days, it fell into an endless loop.

Liu Xiaohua's spirit was clever that time, and then she looked very sluggish, and she stayed in place as soon as she came out. No matter how the order was given, there was no indifference.

In addition to this incident, what is even more unfortunate is that the spirit that Zhou Qing finally collected ran away again!

As soon as his spirit came out, it scurried at high speed. And he could only chase while screaming.

As a result, he still watched his own group of spirits, rushing forward with the rabbit at great speed, and finally disappeared out of range and into the air.

He stood on his back, and it was simply sad. This group was already much smaller than the previous one, and this time he didn't know what the spirit platform would shrink into.

After all, this was the second time he had lost his spirit.

While the others felt sorry for him and comforted him, they immediately set the shortest mantra for the action of 'Recall Spirit'. And give up the training of catching rabbits, and practice recall first.

When everyone has practiced the recall and is back on the agenda of 'catching rabbits'.

Half a month has passed.

Liu Xiaohua deeply understood why immortal cultivators must live for a long time.

Because the training process was so arduous, when Liu Xiaohua's spirit finally succeeded in catching a rabbit, no one cared about it nailing the rabbit to the ground, stabbing it all over the body with holes and bleeding.

Everyone is going crazy with joy.

After eating the grass for so long, I finally have meat to eat!!

Liu Xiaohua didn't think much about it.

She felt that it was a good thing that the spirit was becoming more able to understand what she was saying. Making a rabbit like this is just a small mistake. There was only one word in her head.

Meat! Meat! Meat!

But when they got the rabbit and found that there was no fire, everyone instantly fell into the valley.

I struggled for almost a month, but I couldn't eat it!

No one is on fire! No one knows how to make a fire!

Cheng Zhengzhi collapsed instantly, squatting on the ground, staring at Zhang Fengnian, who was light and breezy, and almost cried.

Zhang Fengnian asked lightly: "Do you want to learn how to control the spirit and ignite the fire?" ”

Cheng Zhengzhi said with a crying voice: "Master Bozu, you want to kill us." We just want to eat meat!! ”

In the end, under Zhang Fengnian's immovable gaze, a group of unkempt people could only obediently obey.

By the time the gang actually ate rabbit meat, it was already three months later.

Monks who have cultivated to a high level, as soon as they turn their hands, they have the desired form formed in their palms. It seems easy to get water and fire.

But to make the spirit turn into fire and water or other forms is a hundred times more difficult than controlling the spirit.

It is also more arduous than the process of learning to control the spirit. Liu Xiaohua felt that this was more like changing the order of the spirit a little bit, so that it would become something else entirely. It's like the difference between charcoal and diamond is actually very small. It only takes a small change, but the results are earth-shattering.

However, to grasp the essence of change, there can be no half-point difference. Otherwise, it will become something inexplicable. A lot of soul is wasted.

Eventually, a group of immense, scrawny beggars, who were indistinguishable from each other in appearance, managed to sit around the blazing campfire on the side of the road, their eyes glowing green, staring at the ten small animals on the fire, all of them eyeing each other.

After finally biting the flesh, Linglong was the first to cry.

When she practiced, half of her head was burned bald, and now there is only a layer of green stubble, and no hair has grown. She had never suffered such a sin as a parent. But while crying, I still stuffed the rabbit in my mouth, afraid that it would be gone if I ate it too slowly.

Obviously, I was crazy with joy at first, but at the end my eyes were shining with tears.

Liu Xiaohua took a bite of unsalted burnt meat, and her eyes were a little hot.

After they finished eating the rabbits, Zhang Fengnian took them and left the main road, turned a hillside, and unsuspectingly, a golden city appeared in everyone's sight.

The light flashed so brightly that people couldn't open their eyes and didn't dare to look at it directly. No one could believe that there could be such a large city near the seemingly endless wilderness. The city is full of people. The shop pù forestry is very lively at first glance. On the road outside the city, there is a constant flow of pedestrians.

Liu Xiaohua's mood is really complicated to the extreme. So you've been going around in circles? Asked: "Senior brother, is there a restaurant here?" ”

"Yes." Zhang Fengnian said lightly: "I wanted to bring you here earlier." But when you think about it, you have worked hard for so long, if you don't let you achieve your wish to eat the rabbit, I'm afraid you will inevitably have regrets in your hearts. ”

Liu Xiaohua was speechless.

Several people silently followed Zhang Fengnian towards the city, and their moods were more complicated than the other.

However, looking at the flow of people, I finally have the feeling of leaving the wild land and returning to civilized society.

At the same time, I finally felt that I was a monk.

When they left Xiao Penglai, although they had already entered the door of cultivation, they didn't know anything, but now, they can simply control the spirit, they can turn their hands on fire, they know how to survive, and they won't starve to death even if they don't bring dry food. There was a sense of pride in my heart.

When this group entered the city, they met many people leaving the city.

When they saw that they were going in, many people looked back at them curiously. It's like you're looking at something new.

But few people came up to talk.

Those people's eyes flickered, and if they were to see them looking back, they would immediately look away and pretend to be fine.

Several disciples had completely given up the idea of relying on Zhang Fengnian, and hurriedly pulled a person who was going out of the city and asked, "It's almost dark, why are you all going out?" ”

The man didn't answer, he struggled and ran.

Then an old man said vaguely: "We are not from here, and after we have finished the transaction, we naturally have to leave." ”

"So many merchants??" Zhou Qing was surprised.

The old man just smiled innocently and asked, "Do you want to settle here?" ”

Liu Xiaohua said: "Exactly. ”

The old man asked tentatively, "Are you here to visit relatives?" ”

Linglong said, "No, we are passing through here. ”

The old man became enthusiastic and said, "My son lives on the main street, and the fourth gate is, if you don't have any relatives here, you can go to him." It costs money to save the store. ”

Xu Sijiu said obediently: "Isn't it troublesome Ah Weng?" ”

"It's okay, it's okay. Seeing that you are young, it is not easy to go out. ”

was so hospitable, Liu Xiaohua hurriedly thanked him. He said, "But we are going out with His Holiness, and we must obey His Excellency's words in everything, and we must not make decisions at will." ”

Only then did the old man see Zhang Fengnian behind them, and he smiled wryly and said, "Yes." ”

Liu Xiaohua was a little embarrassed. He said, "Thank you for your kindness." ”

He nodded, just said "no thanks, no thanks" and left. Walked away, and looked back.

Saying goodbye to the old man, Liu Xiaohua found that Xu Sijiu, who was walking in the front, froze and stood still.

She had reached the tower, and stood in the middle of the crowd, with her head bowed, as if she had been turned into a plaster cast.

Liu Xiaohua called her several times, but she didn't seem to hear it, and kept that action without any response.

Liu Xiaohua chuckled in her heart. can see Zhang Fengnian's unhurried appearance, it doesn't seem like there is any danger here at all. I don't know what happened to Xu Sijiu.

beckoned the others to step forward together, but when they walked there, everyone froze like Xu Sijiu.

This tower is made of gold!

Not only the towers, but also the ground in the city, and everything they saw was golden.

Standing so far away, it is so dazzling that people can't look at it directly, just because it's gold!

If you want to forge a city out of gold, I'm afraid you really need to pour a lot of money.

But even if he is so rich, he won't take the money to do such a boring thing, right, which magistrate did it to build a city with gold? Aren't you afraid of the wrath of the Holy Emperor? There is so much money, I don't know how to fill the people's livelihood, but I use it to make houses and land!

"Is it gold-plated?" Cheng Zhengzhi whispered, and pounced on it, hugging the stone beast next to the city gate.

Linglong hurriedly said: "You're not afraid of being embarrassed, you are a dignified son!" ”

Cheng Zhengzhi didn't care at all, "I'm not much better than a stray dog, and I'm a prince!" ”

I don't know what his teeth are made of, but he really gnawed a mark. But in this seal is still gold.

If it is gilded, it is impossible to plating to such a thickness.

These are real gold.

Liu Xiaohua ran forward to tear him off, but he refused, Liu Xiaohua let go of his hand and said coldly: "Presumably, the people who came here for the first time are as surprised as us, and this stone beast doesn't know that it has been ......... by many people!" ”

Cheng Zhengzhi immediately let go of his hand, crisp and neat, and couldn't be more agile.

"Senior brother, are we going to settle here?" Liu Xiaohua asked Zhang Fengnian.

This kind of place must be very expensive to settle in. She didn't know if the senior brother would help everyone pay the bills. Thinking that a group of people might have to go under the eaves of the house, she tightened her skin. But come to think of it, it's a little better than the wild. And it was relieved.

Zhang Fengnian stood at the gate of the city, his eyes fell somewhere in the city, and did not answer her words.

After a while, he walked towards the city and said, "We have taken something here and returned to Little Penglai." Three days at most. Rest well. However, when you go out and are in other people's places, you must abide by other people's rules. The most taboo is to come to others. There is one more thing I want to tell you - you must not take money from others. No matter how many people there are, they are not yours. ”
