Chapter 9 Water Sources
"If this trend continues, I'm afraid there will really be no harvest this year." Hao Daheng sighed, "Fortunately, there is still some water in this Changxin Mountain, and we can still make a living by hunting and wild fruits and vegetables." But the resources in this mountain are limited, and it is good to supply a few of our villages, if this is known by the outside, it is estimated that it will not be able to be saved, and it is enough to choke. ”
"Village chief, you said, it's been two months of drought, and Changxin Mountain is still the same as usual, and the water hasn't been cut off. There are so many mountains in the entire Canglan country, and there is no such thing. ”
"Yes, yes, these days, the villagers under the mountain have moved into the mountains one after another to escape the heat, and it seems that there are still many towns from the town, and there is no sign of this water source decreasing."
"Maybe there is an underground water source in the mountains, and I have always heard the older generation say that there are some enlightened spirits living in the deep forests behind Changxin Mountain, and they only settled here because they saw the groundwater in the mountains."
There was a circle of people discussing in the narrow grass pavilion, each with their own opinions.
"The news of Changxin Mountain should have reached Jin'an, and we have to think of countermeasures to deal with it earlier. The young martial cultivators in several of our villages have already gone outside to make a living a long time ago, and there are only six low-level martial artists left, and if someone comes to seize the resources, they will not have the ability to resist. The head of Jinli Village pondered.
"It shouldn't be so bad, Changxin Mountain is just a small mountain range, even if it digs three feet into the ground, there won't be much water. The location is remote and tight, so they don't need to spend so much effort to come here. Wang Qiu, the newly appointed head of Shuili Village, stood up and said, he was a seventh-order martial artist and the most convincing leader of everyone.
"Besides, there is indeed a group of monsters behind Changxin Mountain, they have been breeding here for hundreds of years, and if someone really comes to wreak havoc, they will not stand idly by. This is also the reason why for so long, no forces outside the scope of Changxin Mountain dare to invade it. ”
Luo Yuyu and a few village girls were busy making tea for the villagers to relieve the heat, this tea recipe was taken out by Zhang Qigua, the tea was cool and thirst-quenching, it was a drink suitable for this time.
Wang Qiu took the tea sent by Luo Yuyu, and saw the girl's busy but elegant appearance, so he couldn't help but take a few more looks.
"Now everyone should try to store water as much as possible, there has always been fog on this mountain recently, and we are afraid that we will disturb those monsters." Wang Qiu drank the tea in one gulp, "Several of our martial artists will also take turns guarding near Changxin Mountain these days." ”
Li Daoquan was silent on the side, Li Tong, who was sitting next to him, had already recognized Luo Yuyu, that woman was obviously a martial arts cultivator, and her level was not low, that day he saw her light function leap directly out of thin air, this is at least a martial artist or above.
"By the way, this Luo girl, you are a girl's family, it is not safe to live alone in the mountains, you will go down the mountain with us later." Wang Qiu suddenly turned to look at Luo Yuyu.
"No, I'm living with my guards, we're used to life in the mountains."
"Guards? Why didn't you see anyone. ”
"He's gone to town to buy medicinal herbs and will be back later."
Wang Qiu thought about it, this girl was born very well, not like a young lady in the village, but like a young lady from an official family, with a calm and dignified demeanor, the guard he had seen, it should also be a martial arts cultivator, but the cultivation was low, only the second order. Thinking about it, there was a hint of disdain on the corner of his mouth. "Then you go down the mountain with us first, and when your guards come back, it's not too late to come up again."
"I'm afraid this can't be, I still have a lot of medicinal materials to take care of, thank you Village Chief Wang for your kindness."
Wang Qiu saw that people were unwilling, and he didn't insist, so he took the group of people from Shuili Village and walked down the mountain. The other seven villages also descended one after another, and only Li Daoquan glanced at Luo Yuzu fearfully before leaving.
Everyone was almost gone, and Hu Yaoyao flew to the ground lightly. "This Wang Qiu, don't you have a crush on you." 、
"Why are you here?"
"It's not that these people have been fetching water these days, this water is condensed by my hard work with demonic power, if it weren't for your sake, I would have formed a mountain closure barrier long ago." Hu Yaoyao complained, "This drought, I don't think it's right, maybe it's the demon clan." We only have a few little goblins in Changxin Mountain, how can we compete with those big demons, we can only be demons with our tails between them. ”
Luo Yuyu saw that this fox demon had talked so much to herself, and she was a little surprised by her self-familiarity. "Can the demon clan control the rain?" It can't be blamed that she has no knowledge, in the Senmu Continent, the rain is controlled by the laws of space, and large-scale rain control requires the use of magic weapons that cover the Heavenly Dao, and it will also interfere with other people's life wheels and damage the Dao heart. This kind of thing that harms others and is not beneficial to oneself, no demon or immortal cultivator is willing to do it.
"Several major demon clans each have their own secrets to controlling the weather, in addition to the change of the four seasons in the Hundred Fence Continent itself, these big demons can also master the transformation of the stars in the continent."
"Doesn't that get in the way of the laws of space?"
Hu Yaoyao glanced around a few times, squeezed to Luo Yuyu's side and whispered, "It is said that this continent was abandoned by the upper realm, and the laws of space do not restrict us much. ”
It was also the first time that Luo Yuyu had heard that this continent was called Baili, a continent she had never heard of.
"You don't have to worry about this water, I just want you to pay it back, I just hope you don't scare these villagers." As she spoke, with a wave of one hand, several spirit butterflies condensed into shape, and the water molecules in the air were all pulled to automatically fill the emptiness of the mountain stream.
Hu Yaoyao looked incredulous, this strange spell is probably comparable to those big demons. Inexplicably, for a moment, she felt that Luo Yuyu might raise her hand like this, and she would also be beaten back to the prototype.
With the nourishment of fairy power in the forest, everything is full of vitality. There was a faint hint of grass and wood spirit in the air, which was exactly what helped the spirit of cultivation.
Hu Yaoyao trembled and left a storage bag containing spirit grass for Luo Yuyu, and floated away like the wind. She knew that this mysterious girl liked these medicinal materials with aura, if nothing else, even that Ji Xun had been looking for her outside. Now they all live on the same mountain, and they always have to hand over some to protect themselves.
In the next few days, more and more people came to the mountains to carry water. But every evening, wisps of fog rise in the mountains and forests, and the sounds of wild beasts can be heard all around. Therefore, they only dare to come in the morning to fetch water.
This fog was raised by Luo Yuyu at Hu Yaoyao's behest because she needed to enter the cave to cultivate every afternoon, and the small courtyard that had been transformed would disappear with it.
Ji Xun has been out for an unusually long time this time, and when he came back, it had been more than half a month. The wound on his body was even worse than the first time Luo Yuyu had seen her, and the moment he saw her, he fell to the ground, and the mask on his face was torn in half, revealing a handsome face.
Luo Yuyu found that the two internal forces in the man's body had been dispersed, and his cultivation was completely destroyed, and only his last breath was left.
She didn't understand how this man scarred himself every time he went out, and if she hadn't been there this time, he might have really died.
Resigned to his fate, he fed him a three-turn solid qi pill, and made a bucket of spiritual spring water to soak people in it.
