Chapter Fifty-Eight: Underground Ruins
At this time, outside the door, in the small courtyard, two stewards were silently eating dry food. They monitored Li Xiaohei according to Ning Wei's order, and did not dare to leave half a step. The three meals can only be replaced by dry food, although the monk's food requirements will become lower and lower as the cultivation increases, but it is too much of a game for the two of them to stare at a child like this, right?
The whole courtyard was filled with the rich aroma of wine, but they couldn't taste it.
Wine, especially good wine, has a fatal attraction for all monks. And the higher the cultivation, the higher the demand for self-cultivation. has been in Li Xiaohei's small brewing courtyard, but not a drop has entered the stomach, and the two stewards feel that this is really a chore.
At this moment, the door opened, and Li Xiaohei proposed to come out with two wine bottles.
With a smile on his face, Li Xiaohei handed over the wine bottle and said: "The two stewards have worked hard, they have saved the juniors in the middle courtyard before, and there is nothing to repay in the juniors, only the winemaking thinks it is not bad, please taste it." ”
Although the two brewing masters did not believe in Li Xiaohei, Li Xiaohei's reputation for brewing wine has always been spread among the elders, and these two stewards naturally knew about it.
It was a wine that was praised by saints and even immortals!
Leaving the wine bottle, Li Xiaohei returned to the room, and after a while, he turned off the lights and rested. The two stewards stared at the bottles, both of them having the same content in their eyes.
Earned!
The fine wine brewed by Li Xiaohei has always been passed down among the elders, and the saints have all drunk it! No one in these stewards has ever had the privilege of tasting it! And now, they can actually taste it! And there are as many as one bottle!
The two of them couldn't wait to uncork the bottle, and suddenly, a strong aroma gushed out, and the faces of the two stewards were full of intoxication.
Take a sip and the warmth flows into the throat and the heat spreads.
It's really close to the innate realm!
No time to waste!
The two stewards glanced at each other, and immediately each found a hut to cultivate. Only Li Xiaohei, that ten-year-old child, what can he do?
In the room, Li Xiaohei chuckled and said to Xiaohong: "Let's go, it should be fine by tomorrow morning." ”
Xiaohong grinned and said, "You guy is really insidious! I can't see how you can be so cunning at your young age?"
Xiaohong led Li Xiaohei to secretly leave the outer courtyard, and found a stone cave that had collapsed for many years in a certain Yellow Mountain, and there was a hole under the stone cave that could only accommodate the kitten all the time.
Li Xiaohei Xiaohei drilled through the gap, hit the soil on his body, and said, "Where did you find this broken place?"
Xiaohong said proudly: "This king is also a king, and I can smell any treasures and inheritances." ”
Li Xiaohei was speechless, and could only give a thumbs up.
The underground is extremely deep, Xiaohong and Li Xiaohei ran wildly for nearly an hour, and finally came to the front of a simple iron door, the iron door is rusty and mottled, the pattern is simple, and it has gone through the years.
Li Xiaohei came to the door and saw that one side of the iron door had been melted out of a hole by the high temperature, which could only accommodate one kitten to enter. From the entrance of the cave, the simple iron gate was actually three feet thick!
Xiaohong said: "The mechanism used in this iron gate is complex and exquisite, if no one opens it from the inside, it is extremely difficult to crack from the outside, but fortunately, this iron door has lost its protection and can be melted by my high temperature." ”
Li Xiaohei said, "Then you can also make a door for me." ”
Xiaohong said: "The internal mechanism of this iron gate has been destroyed by me, your brute strength is huge, and your bones are strong, you can honestly push it open by yourself." ”
Li Xiaohei smiled, he was also about to try, so he took a deep breath, put his hands on the iron door, and suddenly exerted force, only to hear the iron door creaking, and the rust around the door frame fell one after another. Li Xiaohei's feet left deep footprints on the ground, and he pushed the heavy iron door open step by step.
A gap large enough for Li Xiaohei to pass through appeared, and Li Xiaohei immediately drilled through.
Then, a strong metallic aura surged.
An ancient ruin, hidden underground, is glowing with aura.
The exterior of this ancient relic is made of ore piles, while the interior is cast in metal. Especially in the distance, there are more faintly tall buildings, but because of their age, they are seriously corroded and break from half.
Xiaohong didn't walk for long, and immediately said, "Be careful, that's where I started to meet the copper puppet." ”
Li Xiaohei immediately took a few steps back and said, "Then I'd better go back, I have to face the Bronze Puppet before I get in, and even you are not an opponent, let alone me?"
Xiaohong immediately stopped Li Xiaohei and said hurriedly: "I'll be honest, in fact, I found this place when I was exploring the Silver Moon Spring, and I found that the source of the Silver Moon Spring was in the middle of the ruins. There is a golden spirit vein there, if you can cultivate here, you will definitely be able to turn your flesh and bones into gold and iron!"
Li Xiaohe stopped and didn't leave. He didn't think that Xiaohong came because of this spring, but to be honest, this spring water is currently the most attractive to him.
Before Li Xiaohei could make a decision, several figures suddenly pounced in the distance.
"It's a puppet!" Xiaohong shouted, and her body swelled suddenly, turning into the body of the Red Flame Blood Roar. It is more than a zhang long, blood-red throughout, and has wings on its back. The flames above the wings were blazing, flapping slightly, and the heat wave was rolling.
"Roar!"
The blood roar roared angrily and pounced directly on one of the puppets.
There are three bronze puppets in total, with the image of two men and one woman, and these puppets are made of red blood stone, and the outside is wrapped in copper skin. The copper skin of some of the puppets has been broken, revealing the bloodstone inside.
Red Bloodstone is an extremely rare ore, and the ground under everyone's feet is carried by a giant tortoise, and it is rumored that the red bloodstone is contaminated with the blood of this giant tortoise, containing infinite vitality. In ancient times, monks used to take red blood stone to improve their cultivation and longevity, and some evil cultivators sealed their souls in red blood stone puppets in an attempt to become immortal.
And now, it is a form of puppet that Li Xiaohei has never seen.
If it weren't for the fact that these bronze puppets were old and had long been destroyed, it would be impossible for Li Xiaohei to see the red blood stone inside.
Bloodstone?copper?
Native gold?
Li Xiaohei looked carefully, the surface of the copper skin was full of complex runes under the patina, and the person refining this magic puppet must be a generation of masters.
Damaged over time, the runes are incomplete, so that these puppets can't even exert one percent of their original strength. Little Red has a phoenix flame and is infinitely powerful. The copper skin of a puppet has been burned, and without the copper skin, the red blood stone inside was immediately exposed, Xiao Hong roared angrily, and the aura roared, directly shattering the red blood stone.
"Doesn't it seem very simple?" Li Xiaohei laughed.
Xiaohong shook her head seriously and said, "It's not simple, you'll know it right away." ”
The three puppets did not stump Xiaohong, but when Xiaohong solved the third puppet, there were dense figures of puppets in the distance! There were as many as half a hundred! There were still men and women, who looked like they had just walked out of the warehouse, with no scars on their bodies, but they were covered in patina.
During the battle, Red began to be wounded, and it shouted, "Isn't there anything you can do?"
Li Xiaohei said: "You haven't noticed, haven't they attacked me all along?"
Xiaohong said: "Nonsense, of course I saw it!"
Li Xiaohei said: "I suddenly remembered a secret text, in ancient times, the world was divided into five countries, namely the country of gold, the country of wood, the country of water, the country of fire, and the country of earth. Corresponding to the five elements, the country of fire is the natural enemy of the country of gold, and the two sides are at war repeatedly. And the land of earth is an ally of the country of gold, and has been secretly funded. ”
Xiaohong roared angrily, slapped away the two puppets that rushed up, and roared: "What do you want to say, hurry up and find a way!"
Li Xiaohei said: "These puppets attacked you, not because you were an intruder, but simply because of your flaming aura, which was regarded as an enemy by the other party." ”
Xiaohong exploded the flames, blasting all the puppets that pounced on her, and then roared, "Then what should I do?"
Li Xiaohei said: "I will configure a Five Elements Wine for you to suppress the flame attribute and produce the earth attribute, you stick to it." ”
Li Xiaohei's movements were extremely fast, and the liquor was mixed drop by drop, and finally formed a small bottle, which Li Xiaohei threw straight towards Xiaohong. Xiaohong restored the image of a kitten, opened her mouth, bit the bottle in one bite, and drank the five elements. The flames vanished, and the crimson fur turned the color of a rock.
Sure enough, just as Li Xiaohei said, those puppets were stunned for a moment, and they actually saluted and retreated!
Xiaohong was overjoyed and said, "I knew that it was right to bring you!"
