Chapter 613: Gale Village
The two walked and chatted, and soon walked through the fairy mist forest to the edge. As soon as he came to the edge, Cheng Ling felt a strong wind coming from the surface, and the trees on the periphery were swaying in the wind.
King Kong smiled bitterly: "This is the environment of our Gale Village, at this time of year, there are at least two or three months of such a gale. As a result, there is very little harvest in the village. ”
Cheng Ling nodded silently, such a strong wind even the trees were shaking, not to mention those delicate herbs.
Facing the wind, the two marched for more than an hour, and only saw a ruined village in the distance. In front of the village, a stone carved archway is erected, on which are engraved three simple characters, "Dafeng Village!"
Walk through the torii into the village, which is lined with houses made of huge stones. The house was very ordinary, with little decoration, and even the roof was just a pile of boulders. Cheng Ling also understands that in such an environment, ordinary wooden houses cannot withstand the erosion of strong winds.
King Kong had long been used to it, and took Cheng Ling straight to the depths of the village. It didn't take long for him to come to a slightly larger building and shout inside, "Grandpa the village chief, I'm back, and I've brought a friend with me this time." ”
"A palm-sized village, what friends can you have, there must be a little rabbit cub who has messed with you, come in!" came an old voice from inside the house.
King Kong stuck out his tongue and led Cheng Ling to a slightly larger room in the center.
The room was poorly lit, with only two windows open, and it was tightly sealed, apparently to protect against high winds. An old man with a white beard sat on a stone bench, his brows furrowed, staring at the random patterns drawn on the ground, as if thinking about something.
The two walked in, and the old man looked up at them. His face was stunned, and he said to Cheng Ling: "This junior is so good-looking, I don't know where he came from?"
King Kong was about to speak, but Cheng Ling secretly ripped off his clothes and replied: "The old village chief is good, the younger generation is named Cheng Ling, and he only met the King Kong brothers in the Immortal Mist Forest by chance, because there was nowhere to go, so he came to Dafeng Village with King Kong." ”
"Oh, since we're here, we're all friends. It's a pity that I don't have anything to do in Gale Village, so I don't have anything to entertain, so if you don't mind, you can stay! King Kong, you can arrange for this junior to live in the left wing!"
King Kong nodded, agreed, and prepared to lead Cheng Ling away.
Cheng Ling didn't move, looking at the old man frowning and pondering at the map on the ground, and asked, "Village Chief, I don't know what to worry about, maybe we can help you solve your problems by saying it." ”
The old man was stunned for a moment, and looked up at Cheng Ling again. This time it was much more careful, I saw that although the clothes on the other party's body were tattered, but there was a shrewd look in the eyebrows and eyes, and when I saw that I was frowning, I asked if I asked, this ability to observe words and colors is not bad.
sighed in his heart, and said: "It's made fun of the distinguished guests, I'm a bad old man, where is there any trouble." Isn't it just for the harvest in the village, seeing that this year's wind season is more fierce than ever, and if you don't think about it, the whole village can only drink the wind. ”
Cheng Ling nodded and said, "Village Chief, I don't know if you have ever thought of any solution?"
"What else can I do? As before, let the strong men in the village go hunting in the Immortal Mist Forest to replenish some food. But it's been like this in the past few years, those low-level fierce beasts have learned to be well-behaved, and it's hard to hunt, if you look at King Kong like that, you know that this time it's a futile return. ”
King Kong's face turned red, and he rubbed the corners of his clothes with his hands and couldn't say a word.
Cheng Ling smiled and said, "Village Chief, I heard that King Kong said that some herbs will be planted in the village and replaced with the monks in the big city, I don't know what the situation is this year?"
"Alas~!With such a strong wind, how many herbs can be left. It's just such a small amount, people can't look down on it, and the old man has ordered people to negotiate with the nearby city many times, but there is no result. ”
Cheng Ling sighed, this is indeed a difficult problem. But this point is not absolute, no one collects herbs, what if it is an elixir? I just don't know if there is a need for monks in this interface Jiupin Dan, and I don't know the type of pill, if there is a pill, it would be good.
The old man saw that Cheng Ling was silent, looking like he was meditating. I was slightly moved in my heart, this offspring boy is good, and he knows how to solve problems for the old man, unlike the kid King Kong, who only has brute strength and has no ideas at all.
Cheng Ling thought for a long time, and then had a plan in his heart, and said: "Village Chief, I think the most fundamental problem is the wind season, if the strong wind can be properly solved, the life in the village can be guaranteed, and there is no need to be so hard." ”
The old man smiled bitterly and said, "What you said is right, but the wind season is the force of heaven and earth, and what can mortals like us do to stop it." That's it, the old man has received the heart of the young man, and he has worked hard all the way, so you can rest first!"
Cheng Ling smiled and said, "Village Chief, don't worry, wait for me to finish speaking." ”
"Then you can say it!"
"I have a way to get the village through the wind season, at least so that the winds don't get so strong and the herbs grown in the village survive. ”
The old man was startled, looked at Cheng Ling with an incredible face, and said, "Really? Do you really have a way......? You're still an immortal?"
Cheng Ling smiled awkwardly and said, "That's not it, it's just that I was taught by a master and knew that there were some ways to block the wind, but I still need your help from the village chief." ”
"Okay, tell me, what do you need me to do?"
"It's very simple, as long as the village chief provides some stone here. ”
"What? Just these rocks can keep the wind out? You're not kidding!"
"No, as long as the village chief provides enough stones, I can find a way to make the wind less strong, at least to ensure that the herbs in the village can grow naturally. ”
The old man will be skeptical, but seeing that Cheng Ling looks confident, his confidence seems to be much more sufficient. After a long groan, he said, "Okay, tomorrow I will let people collect these stones, how much do you need?"
"Hmm...... , try to have a little more in case you need it. ”
"Okay, then wait for my good news tomorrow. It's getting late, so rest early!"
The two agreed, and King Kong took Cheng Ling to the left wing.
When he came to the wing, King Kong asked suspiciously: "Brother Cheng, are you really sure to block the gale, is this not a joke?"
Cheng Ling smiled and said, "Naturally, Brother Jin just looks at it." ”
King Kong muttered a few words in a low voice, and seeing that Cheng Ling had no interest in speaking, he also left with interest!
Cheng Ling looked at the wing room, the room was not big, about dozens of square meters. There was only a stone bed and a stone table, and two stone benches were placed next to the stone table, and there was nothing else. He sighed in his heart, this village is really poor enough.
Gently stroking the pale cyan streaks on the stone table, he fell into deep thought.
The only way for him to help Gale Village stop the gale is to set up a shielding formation to keep Gale out of the village. Originally, he was not sure, but when he saw these stones, he realized that it was lazuli.
Lapis lazuli is a very rare stone, itself is extremely heavy, and very hard, windproof, moisture-proof, but also has a restraint effect on some snakes, insects, rats and ants. Legend has it that many of the tombs of the powerful in ancient times were built with lapis lazuli.
Cheng Ling planned to use these lapis lazuli, combined with some auxiliary materials, to refine some array flags and pillars to shield the winds on the periphery.
As an outsider, completely unfamiliar with the Star Realm, Gale Village is considered to be the root of his own foothold. It's still a little embarrassing to let him live in the village for nothing, so let's do some things if I can help them.
In fact, he had some other ideas, such as refining pills. It's just that I don't know if the elixir I have refined needs the monks of the Star Realm. At this point, let's talk about it later, if only I could get a new Dan Fang.
He himself has some immortal realm Dan Dao and array Dao inheritance, and Haochen was a Spirit Array Grandmaster in the Demon Blood Continent back then. And in the Sword Pavilion, the Dan Dao inheritance of Wei Liao is not only applicable to the Canglan Continent, but unfortunately there is no Dan Fang to cooperate.
Nothing was said all night. The next day, Cheng Ling was woken up early by King Kong, and as soon as he came in, he said: "Cheng Ling, the village chief's grandfather has prepared all the stones you want, and I was about to ask you how to prevent the wind." ”
Cheng Ling nodded slightly, stood up and walked out.
When I came to the front of the room, I saw a large pile of lapis lazuli placed at the door, stacked in several layers, presumably overnight, it had been all my strength to get so many lapis lazuli.
Outside the house, more than a dozen stout middle-aged men stood aside, while the old village chief looked at the lapis lazuli piled up like a hill and waited for Cheng Ling to arrive.
After they came out, the village chief said, "Cheng Xiaoyou, are these stones enough?"
Cheng Ling nodded and said, "Enough, enough, the village chief don't be impatient, as long as I am given a few days, the wind can gradually weaken." ”
The village chief asked suspiciously, "What do you need my help with?"
"No, the village chief can wait for my news!"
The old village chief had no choice but to beckon everyone to disperse, but he stayed where he was, watching in confusion.
Cheng Ling knew his thoughts, and he didn't drive him away, and sat down cross-legged with a slight smile. As soon as the right hand moved, the meteor fire came to the palm of the palm and began to be refined piece by piece.
As soon as the meteor fire appeared, a scorching breath rushed to their faces, and the village chief and King Kong couldn't help but retreat straight back, and did not stop until the temperature could be tolerated. Not Cheng Ling's hand, but it gave them a lot of confidence, with such a mysterious means, I am afraid that it is really possible to block the outside wind.
Although the lapis lazuli was hard, it melted quickly under the meteor fire that was upgraded to a deep purple color. It took a whole day for Cheng Ling to refine hundreds of array pillars and array flags. Next, it is necessary to deduce the orientation of the formation nodes.
He was about to take off into the air and look down on the entire village in the air so that he could set up the corresponding formation nodes. But as soon as he lifted his breath, he only jumped up less than two meters, and the whole person fell down heavily by the huge gravitational force.
His face changed, and he secretly looked at himself, and found that there was nothing special. But why can't they fly? Could it be that at this interface, Mahayana monks can't fly?
