Chapter 273: Manual Work
The red note didn't know where he was being sent, the sun was shining, and it was obvious that this place was not in the same place as the stormy endless sea.
Looking at the barren mountains and mountains, there are no people.
Look at the loess cracked up close, and there is no grass.
Hongzhi got up and looked around, and couldn't help but say to the "baby beast": "Baby, why do I feel a little wrong, do you know who Lu Dao just talked to us?" ”
The "baby beast" curled up in the red note's arms and yawned heavily.
Only then did the red note think that the "baby beast" accompanied him last night to first get drenched in the rain, and then was caught in the belly of the demon beast, and he had not been able to rest well, so he couldn't help but feel distressed, lowered his head and put his face on its head, and said softly: "Good, sleep, I'll look around." ”
Surrounded by a wasteland, miles away, was a very deep well, and on the edge of the well was a wooden barrel with a thick layer of ash falling on it.
Far away there are mountains and trees, and there are no roads on the mountains, and everywhere they are crawling with thorns, and the weeds are waist-high, and those trees have grown for hundreds of years, and they are thicker than the bosom of man.
The red note landed on the top of the mountain, and looked down at all this, secretly wondering that there was no sign of any inhabitants in this vicinity, what was the purpose of the man throwing himself here?
Not to mention people, birds and beasts are extinct within a radius of tens of miles, this is by no means a normal world.
It didn't take long for the red note to confirm this idea.
With the mountain as the center, the east, west, north and south are not more than a hundred miles away from the enchantment that she cannot cross.
The enclosed space, the barren land, except for himself and the "baby beast", the red note has not found any other living creatures.
If there is anything special about this area, it is a stone forest in the north of the mountain.
The red paper falls in it, but the various stone carvings are vivid. The farmer who ploughs in the spring, the craftsman who builds the house. The soldiers who went out on the expedition, stone horses, stone oxen...... If it weren't for the fact that so many stone carvings were crammed into one picture. Looking at it from a distance, these statues are almost real.
The red note hurriedly turned, and her gaze fell on one of the large stone turtles.
This stone turtle is different from other statues, which are more or less dusty, but it is the only one whose body is clean and shiny. The stone turtle lay there without moving, and for some reason the red note felt that this turtle was very arrogant, and his body was full of aura.
Red Note endured the discomfort and used his divine sense.
"Did you find out so quickly? Speaking of a strong body, who told you to move your divine sense? It's so boring. A voice sounded in the sea of her mind, and the tone was the so-called messenger.
The red note was startled and said, "It's you?" What are you holy about, and what is your intention in throwing me into this place without saying hello? ”
The stone turtle snorted: "Why don't you believe what I told you?" I am a Guardian Divine Beast, and seeing that you are the head of what you say, I cast a spell to move you to this realm. From now on, you are a small outer disciple of our sect. Don't you want to strengthen your body, and don't you want to practice? ”
The red note opened his mouth wide and looked left and right: "Is this the beginning, I don't know how to practice?" "As for what the stone turtle said, the outer disciples. She felt that it was ridiculous, so she put it aside for the time being.
The stone turtle reproached her: "If you are so stupid, when will you be able to make a difference." Go. First of all, water all the fertile fields within this barrier. ”
Good fields? How can there ever be fertile land within this barrier?
The red note suddenly came back to his senses, thinking of the parched land where he had just come in. Flying down in a circle, most of this land covers a hundred miles, and it is not easy to water it all.
Don't do it. Thinking about it, this stone turtle will not let itself go.
The red note did not bargain, nodded yes, and the stone turtle said again: "I know that you are the root of the water spirit, don't say that I didn't warn you, you are not allowed to be opportunistic, you must fill a wooden barrel with the well water here to water it." ”
Hongjian gritted his teeth, and carried buckets of water to water in this big sun, and he didn't know when he would be able to water all such a large place. Hard work is certain, no wonder it is called a strong body. It's just that I'm here, what about the "baby beast"?
She asked, "Is there anything to eat here?" ”
She turned around for a long time, but there was not a grain in the field, and there was not a single fruit on the tree, which was really not a good place for the "baby beast".
The stone turtle smiled maliciously: "There is something when the work is done, and if you can't finish it, you will be hungry." ”
It seems that the "outer disciple" is an existence with no status, and the stone turtle, the guardian beast, does not know whether it is true or false, although he took the red note, but he ignored it, if he wants to figure out the secret of this enchantment and return to the Dao Cultivation Continent as soon as possible, he must first follow its meaning and meet its requirements.
When the red note returned to the well, the "baby beast" was still asleep, its belly facing the sky, and occasionally snoring.
The red note gently put the little guy on the magic weapon of the flight, picked up the wooden barrel by the well, sent it to the well to fill it with water, and lifted the spell up, and scolded in his heart.
This bucket is leaking, and before it can be mentioned at the mouth of the well, half of the bucket has already flowed away, which is to force people to death.
The red note refilled the bucket with water, this time she was prepared, and before the bucket could come out of the water, she had already stood on the flying magic weapon in advance, pinching the magic trick from a high place.
The wooden barrel turned into a black light and flew out of the well, flying all the way and sprinkling all the way, and the remaining half of the bucket of water was poured on the yellow earth, and a puff of smoke rose from the long-dry mud ground, which could wet the ground a little, and the sun soon returned to its original state.
Red Note directed the barrel to fly around for half an hour, and then she stopped.
It seems that in order to meet the requirements, you will either have to wait for the sun to set and try again, or you need to replace the wooden barrel, and the stone turtle only said that the wooden barrel must be filled with water to water the ground, but did not say that it was the leaky barrel by the well.
Thinking about it this way, the red note had an idea, she flew to the mountains, cut down a few big trees with a "hollow sword", removed the branches and left the trunks, hollowed out in the middle, and made more than a dozen large wooden barrels in a short time, and carried them back with a flying magic weapon.
The "baby beast" woke up dimly, and its eyes widened with a "squeak".
It saw that the red notes were running around in the sky, flying all over the sky were big wooden barrels, more than a dozen wooden barrels flew up and down, and the water in the barrels splashed on the land, and there was already stagnant water in many places, and the cracks and cracks were filled with water, and slowly softened into mud.
The little one found it very interesting, and when the big tail flicked, he flew over, and the barrel flew in the sky, and it ran after it on the ground, "squeaking" in its mouth, and had a lot of fun.
The red paper was covered with sweat, but pouring the ground like this quickly completed the task handed over by the stone turtle.
She was faintly uneasy in her heart, it was too smooth, and she didn't know if the stone turtle would pass there.
When she returned to the stone turtle and got in touch with the stone turtle, the other party did not accuse her of doing a bad job, but said: "It's barely done, how about it, do you want to receive a little reward?" ”
Hey, there's a reward for that?
Shi Gui felt her thoughts and said: "This is natural, you are a disciple of the outer sect, and it is right to work for the sect, but the sect will also give you some encouragement for your hard work, otherwise what do you eat, what do you use, and what do you get promoted?" ”
The red note was a little interested: "Then let me see what it is first." ”
"You're doing farm work, look at the farmer."
The man in charge of farming? The red note suddenly came to the stone statue that was ploughing the field, and the dustpan around the stone statue was empty before, but at this time there were two more things, one was Bigu Dan, which could not be eaten for a long time after taking it, and the other was a fist-sized green peel fruit.
What does this fruit do? When she saw this kind of thing, she thought of the "baby beast", but at this time, the "baby beast" was tired of playing, and was listlessly staying in her arms, not at all like when she was attracted by the fruit on Qionghu Island.
It seems that this reward is very ordinary, but Bigu Dan is not delicious to fight hunger, and the green peel fruit looks not small, and the effect should be similar. If there is only one of them, there is a chance that this reward will be a Bigu Dan.
Thinking so, Hongjian reached over and picked up the green peel fruit, and the moment she touched the fruit, the Bigu Dan on the side began to become transparent, and then disappeared.
…… It's so stingy, it's a choice of one or the other for this reward.
The red note couldn't help but secretly rejoice that he had taken the green peel fruit first, whether it was delicious or not, he could always satisfy his hunger, and he couldn't ask the "baby beast" to stay with him in this boring ghost place and starve.
After receiving the reward, Red Note received a second task from the stone turtle, telling her to turn around and water the ground again, and now go to the edge of the stone forest to build a few wooden houses.
Building a house is both physical and technical.
The task handed over by the stone turtle, the red note did not dare to be careless, cut down trees, split wood, and did not take advantage of the tools, but fortunately, it could be dealt with the real yuan, Ding Ding Dong, and he was busy for most of the night, and he barely built three wooden houses, which looked decent.
She was puzzled: "I only live alone, where can I build so many houses?" ”
"Where is this a lot, I have to build it when I have time, we are the only one here now, don't worry, we will always accept people again in the future, and you will have a companion when the time comes." The stone turtle replied to her.
"Our side...... What's the situation on the strong soul's side, is there already someone? "The opportunity is rare, and the red note hurried to put the words of the stone turtle.
"Hmph, there are always three or five people. So you have to fight for a little bit and don't be compared to them. The stone turtle didn't want to mention it, so he urged the red note to hurry to the stone statue of the craftsman to receive the reward for building a wooden house.
This time, the reward was even more ordinary, with two and a half large wooden barrels tall.
The red note had not rested all night, but she did not feel tired, and the two barrels caused her to ponder.
To give the barrel is undoubtedly to use it to water the ground, which means that the busy work of the day today has not been recognized.
She didn't use spells too much when building a house, and although the rewards she got were inconspicuous, they had a substantial effect, as for Bigu Dan and the green peel fruit, they could only keep you from starving to death, and it was obvious that if you watered the ground like during the day, you would get these two things, and if you continue like this, you will be trapped in this enchantment for the rest of your life.
Do you really need to carry these two buckets on your shoulders and water the ground one by one? (To be continued......)
