Chapter 24 The First Desert
After the fire fold was sent to the territory of the green clothes, it was inevitable that it would be warmed up. Passed on the Green Goblin, oh no, now it should be said that it is the descendant of Zhuang Li. Zhuang Li taught his children and grandchildren how to use the flame, and took out the fresh meat he had saved and cooked. When the smell of cooked meat began to emanate, all the green goblins drooled, and looked at Zhuang Li with gratitude and adoration.
"Congratulations to players for gaining the faith of the Green Goblin and automatically unlocking the Divine Pool. Current state, weak, faith output, 10 faith points per day. ”
Thinking back to this prompt with some doubts, Zhuang Li frowned slightly, what is faith? Is it possible to become a god? I asked Greenyi, and Greenyi said that she also had Shenchi, and there were already hundreds of thousands of faith points in it, except for feeling good spirits, it didn't seem to have any other effect. Alas, happy for a long time in vain. Looking at the Green Goblins who were dancing around the fire with an unknown dance, he suddenly realized that they were actually quite cute. Who can choose to be born? Existence is truth.
After repeatedly emphasizing the issue of safety, Zhuang Li left the tribe again. Green Yi didn't keep it too much, but just hoped that Zhuang Li would come back often. Since then, Zhuang Li has truly integrated into this world.
When passing by the bloodthirsty demon flower territory, Zhuang Li saw the fat man covered in whip marks, the huge wooden stick in his hand did not know where to discard, and he was holding a hoe made of stone polishing, loosening the soil for those delicate demons one by one. There was a charming Qiyan standing on the side, and there was a fat man who didn't have a match, and if she relaxed for a while, she would be whipped. Instead of a trace of anger, the latter showed an expression of enjoyment, and beckoned to Zhuang Li with bared teeth. As he stopped working, he was whipped again with a snap. Just listening to the sound makes people feel a pain in the flesh, Zhuang Li can't help but shiver, I hope this fat man is because of love.
Shaking his head, Zhuang Li didn't go up to disturb the fat man's special two-person world, and went directly through the Valley of the Dead. The village was still very deserted, and there was no one left, and it was obvious that all the members of the Yijian family did not take the village seriously, but only regarded it as a place to rest at night. The level of construction is still low, which can also understand why the village is ignored. Leaving a note explaining the situation in each room, Zhuang Li led the red fox to the west.
There is also a reason for choosing the west, the south is the Canyon of the Dead, the north is Yan Wushuang's territory, as for the east, it seems to be a mountain range, and only the west is a boundless desert. Choosing the west side can avoid any conflict with Yan Wushuang's subordinates, after all, people are sometimes more terrifying than monsters.
On the way, Zhuang Li prepared some water and food, and this day will not be too short, so it is quite important to have enough water and food. All the way, Zhuang Li came to the desert. Without the embellishment of plants, it is very desolate as far as the eye can see. However, unlike the previous world, the deserts in this world are like natural and are not formed by the desertification of the land. Zhuang Li was a little curious, why the desert was still so hot when there was no sun. From time to time, thick or fine sand and gravel drilled into the soles of some holes, and the hot Zhuang Li's feet were blistered. The amount of blood is decreasing imperceptibly, and I don't know how long I walked, Zhuang Li still didn't encounter any monsters, and it was really a desert!
"Red Fox, are you tired?" , Zhuang Li found a relatively shady sand and sat down, drank water and looked at the red fox lying at his feet. The latter snorted a few times and rolled his eyes widely. Zhuang Li handed the red fox a piece of dried meat, and his eyes looked into the somewhat dim distance. Things seem to be different from what I expected, is this desert so barren that there are no monsters left?
Gritting his teeth, Zhuang Li stood up and habitually reached out to hug the red fox. The latter screamed and dodged, meaning that it was too hot to walk on his own. Zhuang Li suddenly laughed, his mood eased a lot, it's okay, if he still hasn't gained anything for a long time, he has to go to the east to rob Yan Wushuang.
The desert seemed to have no end in sight, and if it weren't for the map that slowly stretched with his footsteps, Zhuang Li would have been afraid of being lost. Zhuang Li just walked numbly, and the red fox finally couldn't stand this hopeless walk and chose to lie on Zhuang Li's shoulder. Suddenly, Zhuang Li's feet were empty and he sank.
Falling to the ground with a bang, Zhuang Li was a little excited while being annoyed, and finally found something different. Although I didn't encounter any dangers along the way, my purpose was not to sightsee. The red fox seemed to smell something, and turned into a red light and shot out. Zhuang Li carried the Seven Stars Shadow to follow, mastering the recovery and consumption of internal qi, and using it from time to time, Zhuang Li's body became more and more weird. Invisibly, the strength has also improved a lot, so when it comes to cultivation, you still have to go out, and you will be eliminated by this cruel world after all.
As Zhuang Li went deeper and deeper, the cave wall began to be a little wet, and the thin layer of sand did not know what material it was, emitting a faint light, so that the cave would not be dark. Zhuang Li stopped suddenly, there were some marks on the ground, like some reptiles, but the paw prints next to the traces indicated that this creature also had feet.
"Tick, tick", it turned out to be the sound of water. I didn't think I was quite lucky, of course, this luck does not mean that there is water to drink, but because there is a water source. Having a water source means that there is a large number of creatures gathering, and it also means that you can finally start hunting. But it's better to be careful, after all, you're no longer the wanderer you care about. Gently wiped the watermelon knife that had been with him for some time, like a special ritual, when the hand brushed the tip of the knife, Zhuang Li turned into an afterimage and rushed over.
It's almost as imagined, just a small pool. However, there are various animals gathered in the surrounding area, including the red fox with its teeth and claws. But embarrassingly, it seemed to be ignored, and except for a mouse about its size, the other monsters didn't even look at it. After all, compared to these monsters who are several people tall, the red fox doesn't seem to be enough to stuff his teeth. However, Zhuang Li's arrival seemed to have upset some kind of balance, and almost all the monsters turned their heads, baring their teeth and roaring, and the yellow sand on the roof of the cave kept falling.
Zhuang Li smiled, raised his hands and said, "You go on, I just came in to find my partner", this is the beast language. As he spoke, Zhuang Li also snorted at the red fox. The red fox trotted over, and fell a few times from time to time, don't look at this little guy's calm appearance just now, in fact, its fox legs have long been frightened. Bent down and picked up the red fox, Zhuang Li pinched his nose and fanned him with disgust, this guy was probably scared to pee, and there was a commotion on his body. Zhuang Li slowly retreated, and those monsters of different forms slowly withdrew their gaze.
