Volume 1 Heavenly Beast Gate Soul Selection Chapter 15 Collecting Purple Yan Fruit
When he came to the big lake, he took off his clothes and pants and found a place to cover with water plants with the black flag, and then he plunged into the lake and dived into the space of the stone niche at the bottom of the lake to practice all night.
The next day, he caught a few lake fish and roasted them to fill his stomach, then went ashore to put on his clothes and pants, and walked alone to the village chief Xu Jin's house by stepping on the morning dew on the shore in the early morning.
As soon as he arrived at the village chief's house, he saw Xu Jin Xiaoyingying inviting him into the inner hall, holding a village seal letter in both hands and handing it to him, and then handed over a bag of bulging yuan coins, saying that it was for him to spend at will in Yinyuan City.
Seeing that Liu Qingyi took the seal letter and the yuan coin one by one and put it into his arms, Xu Jin simply explained: "You only need to rush to the entrance of Yinyuan City with the seal letter before noon, and there are people in the city to collect the seal letter." ”
Liu Qingyi nodded when he heard this, and said, "Understood", and walked out of the village chief's house and strode towards the outside of Humiao Village.
Along the way, he used the wind walking technique, which can be described as a brisk walk, the mountains and rivers and ravines are like walking on the ground, and he arrived at the Qinghong Plain in a short time, and the so-called red scarf thieves on the original are now not one.
After passing the Qinghong Plain, he arrived at the periphery of the Mangdang Mountain, Liu Qingyi looked at the towering mountains in front of him, thinking that this time he would enter the mountains, and he couldn't help but be eager to try.
Since he practiced the Immortal Dao Method, the previous time he faced the Red Turban Thieves was just a small test, and he had already scared off a group of bandits by relying on the two techniques of Imperial Sky and Spirit Flame. If you go to the depths of the vast mountain and encounter the so-called spirit beasts and demon beasts, you can do whatever you want, and try the flying sword and the black banner together.
Thinking like this in his heart, he didn't stop under his feet, but after a little effort, he bypassed the vast mountain, passed through a large low plain, and came to the gate of Yinyuan City.
From afar, he saw that many people were lining up at the gate of the city, each holding a seal, and he hurriedly walked over and lined up at the back of the line, and after a while, several more people came, and lined up behind him in turn.
The tooth messenger at the gate of the city received all the people's seals one by one, and entered the city with the messengers from each village, and came to stand in front of a small courtyard in the west city.
Liu Qingyi looked up, and saw several warriors in strong suits standing on the stone steps in front of the small courtyard, holding weapons such as swords and ge, which looked extremely majestic.
A burly man in a black samurai uniform in the middle took a few steps forward, nodded slightly towards the tooth who led the way, and said loudly: "On the order of the city lord, I will take you to Mandang Mountain for business." Please leave all the wrapped clothes you have with you in this small courtyard and pick them up when you come back. Wait a minute, I will send a drawing to each of you, this time the task is to show me the purple Yanguo painted on the map, all of them must be carefully seen, each person must collect at least twenty, if any of you pick less, it will be regarded as invalid this difference, and you all know the consequences. ”
After saying a few words, several samurai came over and handed out a thin drawing and a cloth bag to each of them.
Liu Qingyi took the drawings and the cloth bag, and found that the drawings were actually painted, and the fruit about the size of a lychee was painted on it, with a faint purple on the surface, but it was painted vividly. As for the cloth bag that was issued, I think it was used to pick the purple extension fruit.
After everyone received the blueprints and cloth bags, the burly man in a black samurai suit rode himself a wind bone beast, led six samurai in strong suits, and shouted for everyone to line up and leave the city.
Liu Qingyi and the more than ten villagers from each village carried a cloth bag, and the several warriors who walked in front trotted all the way, followed the burly warrior riding the wind bone beast out of the city, and went straight to the vast mountain.
Crossing the low plain, the group came to the foot of the Mandang Mountain, and the burly man who led the way pointed to a path up the mountain, and said to everyone: "From here, everyone needs to follow me, if you fall behind or are alone, I will not wait for you, then I can only ask for more blessings." With that, he patted the wind bone beast on his crotch, and led the six accompanying warriors to the mountain, and the villagers who had been recruited also hurriedly followed.
Liu Qing's clothes were attached to the back of the team, and he walked unhurriedly towards the mountain.
The peaks of the vast mountains are overlapped, like the undulating sea, and the distant mountains and near the mountains are confused in the mist, like a woman who has not woken up from sleep, and her breath is shaking with a light veil as thin as cicada wings.
It's just that when everyone was marching, there were bursts of beast roars in their ears from time to time, which made people shudder when they heard it, and it was indeed a bit of a bad scenery.
When they reached the mountainside, the leading samurai walked faster and faster, and everyone hurriedly hurried to catch up, for fear of falling behind.
Liu Qingyi naturally performed the wind walking technique, and it was easy and comfortable to follow the team all the way, and he was not sweating profusely like the villagers in other villages.
After running for several miles of mountain roads, they came to a hollow plain between the mountains, and the man who led the ride on the Wind Bone Beast pointed ahead and said, "Everyone go down quickly to pick the purple Yan fruit, don't make a noise." ”
Everyone followed the gesture of the big man, and saw that there were low trees growing on the mountain recesses and plains, and the treetops were full of lilac fruits, which were the same as the purple fruits on the drawing.
The farmer from all the villages was overjoyed at the sight, and each of them slipped into the plain with a cloth bag as fast as he could, and began to collect the purple fruits separately.
The burly man and the warriors each stood guard at the crossing above the plain, looking around nervously and watching.
Liu Qingyi shook the cloth bag in his hand, and inserted the black flag around his waist tightly, then burrowed into the plains and woods, and picked up the purple fruit unhurriedly. In just half an hour, a large bag was picked, and there were about seventy or sixty pieces, which was far beyond the limit of twenty.
He stopped and looked around, and found that most of the others had also packed the cloth bags for eight or nine points, and all of them were full of joy, seeing that the picking task of this errand was going so smoothly, it was indeed an unexpected joy, and everyone was naturally very happy in their hearts.
The leading man guarding the intersection saw that everyone had almost picked up, so he waved his hand and began to beckon everyone to get up and leave.
After hearing the order to assemble and leave, the crowd of people who had been scattered all over the plain went out of the woods with most of their cloth bags and went to the crossing to assemble.
Liu Qingyi held the cloth bag in one hand, and jumped on the road crossing in a few vertical steps, and looked back to see a group of villagers who were collecting, still climbing towards the crossing one after another, and said in his heart: "I didn't expect that this errand was really smooth, I still had the intention of practicing with those spirit beasts and big demons, and it seemed that it was also a fantasy, and the flying swords and immortal arts that I practiced were naturally useless." ”
