Chapter 186: Unexpected Joy
Xicheng Temple, Qingzhou City.
After Shi Lan pondered for a while, he began to inquire about the basic situation in the vicinity from Lao Hongtou's mouth.
The result of some inquiries surprised Shi Lan, the place where she was now was a 'continent' spanning nearly 10,000 miles, surrounded by an endless ocean.
On the mainland, ruled by a dynasty called 'Qianyuan', there are no strong people here who can push mountains and reclaim the sea, only a group of so-called martial arts people, the strongest of which is no more than a hundred enemies.
In the face of the Qianyuan Dynasty's thousand-cavalry array, it was not common for them to retreat, and it was not common for them to 'break the ban with chivalry'.
When he learned this, Shi Lan carefully felt the fluctuations of the aura around him, and it was indeed extremely thin, almost nothing.
Previously, she had just woken up, and she only thought that her cultivation had disappeared, so she couldn't perceive the aura, but she never thought that the aura in this place would be so low.
The Qianyuan Dynasty has been inherited for more than 1,000 years, and its rule is extremely stable, and there are several generations of Ming monarchs who have worked hard and made great efforts to govern the country, and they are at their peak and extremely vigorous.
To control a radius of thousands of miles is to control this continent.
Within three years, if Shi Lan wants to control this continent, the first thing to solve is this Qianyuan Dynasty.
It's hard, it's hard.
This is Shi Lan's opinion, she is only a mortal now, the aura here is so thin, and the system function is not used, it is obviously unrealistic to resume cultivation in the short term.
"Goo-"
The hunger in his stomach pulled Shi Lan's mind back, and in the middle of a conversation, the sun was already setting in the west.
Lao Hongtou and the three got up one after another, and they wanted to beg for some food when the sun was not too poisonous.
Looking at the somewhat stumbling backs of the three of them, Shi Lan's thoughts began to drift away.
The initial cultivation of Yuqing's Creation and Transformation Decision is the Innate Realm, and she can't cultivate at all now, so she can only rely on Forging Jade Decision and Vajra Divine Fist.
The cultivation of forging jade duels requires a large amount of flesh and blood essence, or spiritual materials that replenish blood and qi.
The load on the physical body in the early stage of the Vajra Divine Fist is too great, and it cannot be practiced often before forging jade to a certain extent.
"Goo-"
Shi Lan frowned slightly, holding down her abdomen, the feeling of hunger, she hadn't experienced it for a long time.
Now the top priority is how to appease the temple.
After a moment of silence, Shi Lan glanced at the surrounding environment and stepped into the wilderness, she had nothing to grow, and she really didn't want to beg, so she looked for some wild fruits and the like to satisfy her hunger.
Even if it's grassroots, it's okay to carry this for a while, and tomorrow, if you go to Qingzhou City and find a way, it will be impossible to starve to death.
The wilderness is clean, there is no trace of wild fruits, and if you think about it, what can be easily found should have been eaten by Lao Hongtou and these people.
Along the way, Shi Lan saw a few hares, but now she is panting after running two steps, and catching these rabbits that come and go like the wind is tantamount to a fantasy.
After walking for half an hour, Shi Lan came to a small stream and poured half of the stream water into his stomach to dilute his hunger.
Shi Lan lowered her head and rubbed her face twice, the clear reflection in the stream was slightly different from her previous appearance, not much different from before she was reborn.
Among mortals, it can be regarded as outstanding.
With a sigh of relief, Shi Lan took off her shoes and socks and walked into the water.
The stream is not too deep, but it is not over the calf, and it is a little cold.
After rummaging for a long time in the gravel under the stream, Shi Lan returned to the shore.
More than a dozen half-palm-long water shrimps, a crab about three or two times, this is her harvest.
Unable to make a fire, Shi Lan didn't care, three times five divided by two, peeled off the carapace, and wiped out the harvest.
The slight smell of fishiness did not affect her appetite.
With something in my belly, the discomfort caused by hunger gradually subsided.
Glancing at the dark sky, Shi Lan walked back towards the Xicheng Temple.
In the wilderness, it is inevitable that there will be hyenas and jackals, and it is too dangerous outside.
The way back was always much faster, and it didn't take long for Shi Lan to return to the ruined temple.
There were a few more people in the ruined temple, all dressed as beggars, each huddled in the corner, curled up to rest.
Lao Hongtou and the thin boy were also among them, but the thin middle-aged man was gone.
Hearing someone enter, the few beggars who were huddled in the corner did not move.
Lao Hongtou and the thin young man had not yet rested, and when they saw Shi Lan coming in, Lao Hongtou quietly beckoned to her.
The two of them sat in the corner next to the Buddha statue, leaving her a lot of space behind them.
Shi Lan lightened her steps, walked to the side of the two, thanked them softly, stepped on the straw that was not too thick, and sat down against the Buddha statue.
After she sat down, Lao Hongtou leaned closer to the thin young man, isolating Shi Lan from the rest of the beggars.
Shi Lan closed her eyes and took a break, thinking in her heart about how to act when she arrived in Qingzhou City tomorrow.
This place is different from the Lingyang realm, it is somewhat similar to the ancient times of China on the earth, and the control of the government is extremely strong.
While pondering, Shi Lan felt that someone was tugging at the hem of her skirt.
When she opened her eyes, it was the thin young man, handing her a palm-sized oiled paper bag.
The young man lowered his head, looking a little shy, and in the night, Shi Lan couldn't see the look on his face.
"Bun ......"
If it weren't for the extreme silence around him, Shi Lan almost didn't hear the young man's voice.
"Goo-"
The movement coming from the young man's body was somewhat obvious.
Shi Lan was in a much better mood, she was not too hungry, and after saying thank you, she pushed the oiled paper bag back.
The boy didn't answer, but shrank back, and didn't move.
Seeing the young man's reaction, Shi Lan shook his head and smiled, and opened the oiled paper bag, the buns in the bag were already cold.
Shi Lan picked up the bun and tore it in half, with a vegetarian filling.
Reaching out, Shi Lan sent half of the bun to the young man, who didn't move at first, but after a few breaths, he couldn't help but get up.
Some panickedly took half of the buns handed by Shi Lan and swallowed them into his stomach.
Shi Lan finished the remaining half of the bun in three or two bites, and continued to think about the unfinished thing in his heart.
Suddenly, her eyebrows moved, she opened the system panel, and clicked into the lottery section.
The lottery wheel is still golden, but the lottery button is dim, and it is obvious that the prize cannot be drawn.
Shi Lan was a little disappointed, she was still expecting to use up the intermediate lottery opportunity.
Just as he was about to close the system panel, Shi Lan stopped at the system temporary storage with a glimmering light.
After a moment, Shi Lan's eyes were overflowing with joy.
The previous ten primary draws drew out many items that could be used in the quenching body and innate realm.
Shi Lan felt that it was useless, and he didn't even have the heart to take it out and take a look, so he temporarily threw those things in the temporary storage place of the system, and did not include them in the Qiankun bracelet.
Items drawn by the lottery can only stay in the system storage area for 24 hours.
It should have been recovered by the system, but now it has been saved because of the huge time flow difference.
