Volume III, Chikawasawa Chapter 196, Twenty-Three Wonders
Don't look at the appearance of the monster is not very good-looking, but he has a lot of experience in cooking, and a table of sumptuous peasant dishes is placed on the table, and suddenly the low table seems a little crowded.
Sando Rong smiled: "I'm really sorry for everyone, my family has never been to have so many guests, so I haven't prepared such a big place, and I ask you to take care of it a little more and squeeze it." ”
As long as there is something delicious, even if Lu Haoran is allowed to sit on the edge of the dung pit, it doesn't matter in his heart, he shakes off his cheeks and begins to gobble up.
Only Liu Xiaoyi was worried, some couldn't eat, Sandaorong saw that in this group of people, the person who finally spoke was this young swordsman, the green sword hanging from his waist was not unsheathed, but the edge was faintly obvious, and the ginseng fruit was already keen, so sitting opposite Liu Xiaoyi, he felt a little dazzling.
"Liu Swordsman, let Lao Yu say a little more, you ventured to Qianchuan Ze, and offended the Yama envoy of the underworld, why is this?" asked Sandao Rong at the right time.
Liu Xiaoyi came back to his senses at this time, and just now he had been thinking about how to avoid Hengyang City and continue to walk towards the depths of Qianchuanze.
After listening to Sando Rong's introduction for a long time, I already knew that although Hengyang City was not a big city, it was in a superior location, just blocking the entrance of the passage and the only way to go inland in Qianchuanze, otherwise I could only bypass the flat city and walk the surrounding muddy wetlands.
These slimy muddy fields can be seen in Qianchuanze, where the climate is hot and humid, and poisonous gases are rampant, so there are also many poisoners who are good at poison arts, and it is extremely difficult to deal with them.
So there is no need, it is safer to take the official road, the cultivation of a few of them is not even enough to protect themselves here, just after coming here for half a day, Li Dao's cultivation has made a breakthrough, and his mana has been in an unstable fluctuating state.
"Senior, have you ever heard of Ruyi grass? ”
"Ruyi grass, are you here to find him?" Sando Rong sighed, and said quietly: "If you are looking for some other objects, I still have a way to help you, but Ruyi grass is a spiritual thing of heaven and earth, I am a spirit, he is an elf, it sounds like a word, there is a long difference between the two of us, I am still hunted and killed, can Ruyi grass be fine?"
Liu Xiaoyi knew that Ruyi grass would definitely be difficult to find when he came, otherwise why didn't he leave one or two plants for himself for a sect as big as Yanjian Dao.
"Ruyi grass is also an existence like you that can transform into shapes?" Lu Haoran interjected, eating too much in his mouth, and his speech was a little slurred.
Sando Rong nodded, "Not only did he take on a human form, but he also had the ability to reach the sky, but now he also ended up in a situation where he was going to be divided into five horses. ”
"Do the seniors know where the Ruyi grass is? A few of us must use the Ruyi grass to save our lives, even if it is a mountain of swords and a sea of fire, we must go and break through!" Liu Xiaoyi pleaded.
"You're definitely going?"
"Definitely going to go!"
Seeing that Liu Xiaoyi's expression didn't seem to be joking, Sam Daorong also straightened up, and told the ins and outs of the matter with his eyes full of memories.
It turns out that this Ruyi Grass is currently the only one in Qianchuanze, and it has the ability to condense the three souls and seven spirits, even if there is only a wisp of remnant soul left, with the help of the medicinal effect of Ruyi Grass, it can also reshape the soul and live another life.
It is not an exaggeration to say that he has another life, so when he was incarnated, he has been moving between various sects and has been regarded as a guest by them.
But the good times didn't last long, there was a high-status senior in the underworld, and his son was scattered by someone, leaving only a thumb-sized Yingying soul, and whoever blew a breath could send him into reincarnation.
This senior was furious, entangled in the power of the entire Hades, and went to detain Ruyi Cao, but the Hades was powerful, and the sect that originally supported Ruyi Cao had to give him up, and now he is imprisoned in Hengyang City.
When the remnant soul was first sent to Hengyang City, it was no longer able to hold on, and if he wanted to save such a serious injury, he was afraid that it would be in vain, and even if Liu Xiaoyi came to the door again, Ruyi Cao would not be able to help him alleviate the sword intent of Daigo's empowerment.
After hearing this, Liu Xiaoyi asked puzzledly: "Since Ruyi Cao is a high-level elf senior, how can he be easily detained by the Hades?
"Liu Swordsman, you have got to the point, it's not the power of Hades, it's the miraculous power of that wonder, which traps the Ruyi grass in it and can't get out!"
Sando Rong, who is also the embodiment of the body of plants and trees, although he does not know Ruyi grass, but there is inevitably a sense of death and cold teeth between the same kind.
He also hoped that someone would rescue Ruyicao, but when he heard that he was imprisoned in the wonders of the Hades, he was a little discouraged.
The special geomorphological environment of Qianchuanze has created the birth of a thousand strange races, the most mysterious of which are twenty-three in total.
These places are known as the 23 wonders, either steep and majestic, or hidden and murderous, and countless people come to observe and explore each year, and there is something to be gained.
There are even some outlaws who make a windfall by killing people and making a windfall by taking advantage of the terrain in the spectacle.
Wherever you go, the most dangerous is always the elusive human heart, and these wonders are either too large to be occupied by any sect, or they are taken into their own entirety, as in the case of Hades.
"Wonder, is it the kind of place that looks beautiful and is very suitable for hanging out?" Liu Xiaoyi was confused when he heard it, there are too many new things in Qianchuanze, and he needs to digest and digest it well.
Sando Rong took a brand-new map from his bosom, and the two of them fled for their lives, and this map marked the detailed geography of most of the thousand rivers.
He stretched out his hand and pointed to the northeast where Hengyang City was located, where there was a deep black land that did not fit in with the nearby woods.
"Fifty miles outside Hengyang City, it is the wonder of the underworld, and that senior temporarily suppressed his son's remnant soul in it, otherwise it would have dispersed and disappeared long ago. ”
As the name suggests, in this land, the soul can move freely out of the body, not being bound by the general trend of heaven and earth, and after losing the body, it will not fall into reincarnation.
There are still many Taoist priests who practice yin and yang magic in this place, and they will stay here for a long time, they dare not go into the depths, they only ponder and study in the periphery from afar, and their cultivation is not slow.
There are also many people with prominent status, who foster the souls of their predecessors in the clan here, and after a long time, the underworld within a radius of hundreds of miles becomes crowded.
The underworld was also out of helplessness, so it had to announce the temporary closure of the underworld, and began to screen and clean up the souls in it.
Liu Xiaoyi and the others were amazed when they heard this, there was such an incredible place in the world, which could really snatch people's lives from the hands of the king of Hades.
"Ladies and gentlemen, don't underestimate the underworld, our flesh bodies have gone in, and after more than an hour, this body will no longer be able to ask for it!" Sando Rong reminded when he saw the surprise of the crowd.
"What kind of credentials do you need to go to the underworld?, or can anyone go there?" Liu Xiaoyi planned to hurry up and explore the way, and delay it any longer, for fear that the other party would sacrifice the Ruyi grass first.
Sando Rong pointed to a mountain stream not far away on the map, on which were written three crooked characters of "Huangshi Cliff".
"As long as you pay some money, the underworld will give you a jade plaque, and you can go to the periphery of the underworld unhindered, but if you want to go inside, you have to go to the Yellowstone Cliff to find the help of the witch and buy her soul shirt to protect the body, which is not cheap. ”
If there is trouble, there is a solution to the trouble, and what the Chikawa Zeqi people have is that a witch who lives in the Yellowstone Cliff can use special spider silk to weave a kind of clothing called the Yuan Soul Shirt, which can block the erosion of the underworld.
Looking at Sam Daorong's not very good-looking face, the price must be very cheap, so Liu Xiaoyi asked: "What kind of coin is used in Qianchuanze's transactions?"
"Gold, silver and copper plates are acceptable, and there should not be much difference from the outside world. ”
When Liu Xiaoyi heard this, he instantly breathed a sigh of relief, and everyone's expressions suddenly soothed.
Seeing this, Sandao Rong was a little anxious, "Ladies and gentlemen, the Yuan Soul Shirt will be sold for 30,000 taels of gold, don't say that it is an ordinary family, even if it is a sect with hundreds or thousands of people, it will hurt to take out this money!"
"You can rest assured that the problem of money is that my brother may not have anything else, and there is only money left in his pocket!" Lu Haoran laughed, on cultivation may not be enough for everyone in Qianchuanze, but on gold and silver, it is enough to lie on the official road in Hengyang City!
"That's good, that's good," Sando Rong still didn't believe it, but it was inconvenient to say more, "You really want to save Ruyi grass?"
"After a full meal, we will go, and ask the seniors to take care of my two friends, who are still injured and have not yet healed. Liu Xiaoyi pointed to Li Dao and Shangguan Baozi beside him, the two of them were injured in the soldier's mound, and it will take some time to recover.
Sandao Rong readily agreed, took a knife and slashed his left arm twice, cut off two ginseng roots, and handed them to Liu Xiaoyi, "If you are too injured, eat a piece to ensure that you recover as before!"
Don't look at the two small roots, it took 200 years of cultivation to Sandao Rong, in order for Ruyi Grass to be saved, he also made a bloody investment.
Liu Xiaoyi put it away closely, and he didn't want to eat, so he got up and wanted to leave, but Lu Haoran couldn't resist him, so he had to grab two large cakes and stuff some cooked meat into his mouth.
As soon as I was about to go out, I heard a big commotion outside the house, and a rough voice roared: "Old man! I heard that there is a guest in your house, let Xiong come over to see who it is!"
When Sandao Rong heard this, he hurriedly ordered the servant to clean up the room, and said to everyone: "Ladies and gentlemen, go into the basement quickly and take shelter, don't come out without my signal!"
