Chapter 10: Fire Lotus

Redstone Village has always been a closed village, and it is said that it was once a barren village with yellow sand. It is located outside of the city of Erlan, in the middle of nowhere.

Living in a place like the desert, the most important thing to build a strong house is building materials.

But decades ago, in this originally deserted and uninhabited place, a group of mysterious people suddenly appeared, their arrival was extremely secretive, Hazi was the leader of this group of mysterious people, he was wearing red clothes, and even the mask on his face was red.

Under his leadership and planning, this originally barren place, a year later, has formed a strange village of great scale.

The structure of the village is in the shape of a gossip, and the layout of the building is like a labyrinth, and it is easy for strangers to get lost if there is no one to guide them.

All the buildings in the village are made of red stone, and the origin of the stone has long been a mystery to the outside world. As for this legend, there are many versions, and each one is full of bizarre.

Some people say that the village came into existence all of a sudden, and that everything in the village is the product of a fantasy. They are not real beings, everything is an illusion. But outsiders who live there argue that if everything is an illusion, if it is an illusion, why hasn't the village disappeared if it has existed for decades?

It is also said that the village was built by their leader, Haz, and a group of villagers, but the stones used to build it are a secret.

There is also a small group of people who say that these red stones fell from the sky, and that these mysterious people also came from a foreign land. But this argument obviously does not convince the public, and their rebuttal reason: How can stones fall from heaven?

Therefore, the origin of Hongshi Village has always been a secret, and there may be some people with foreign surnames who know the true origin of Hongshi Village, but those who know this secret will die mysteriously soon after.

Later, this secret was known only to the people who lived in Redstone Village, but the people who lived here were tight-lipped about their villages, and ordinary people couldn't find out anything.

Princess Lan Lun and Wan Yi didn't know about the potential danger of Redstone Village, and they found the intersection into the village after several rounds.

The entrance to the village is planted with red fire lotuses, and from a distance, it looks like a sleeping sea of fire.

Fire lotuses grow in water, so if you want to enter the village, you have to row a boat to enter it.

"There's water everywhere here, how do we get in? fly in with illusions?"

"Don't use illusions in everything, see if there's a boat?"

"Princess, you said that the place where we live is a desert, how can there be a water source here to grow fire lotus?"

"I don't know, I don't know where the water comes from, maybe everything in front of me is just an enchantment, an illusion, a false reality, not to be taken seriously. ”

"Also, seeing can't be believing!"

While the two were talking, a small white boat suddenly emerged from the depths of the fire lotus, and on the boat stood an old man dressed in white, he was gray-bearded, thin, and holding a oar in his hand. Singing while rowing: Fire Lotus, on the day of July, the carp broke through the water.

"Grandpa, what are you singing?" Wan Yi walked in and asked him.

"A fire lotus song. ”

"Grandpa, can you take us to Redstone Village?"

"The two of you should be able to use illusions when you look at your body, why don't you just fly in, why do you want to take my rocking boat?"

"Wouldn't it be an uninvited guest to fly in directly?"

"It seems that the two of you are quite aware of the rules, but outsiders are not allowed to enter and exit at will in Hongshi Village, so I advise the two of you to leave as soon as possible to avoid trouble. ”

"Why can't you just go in, isn't it just an ordinary village?"

"Hmph, I'm not happy when you say that, where can you tell that this village is ordinary? Is this village ordinary?"

"Not ordinary!" Wan Yi retracted her words and muttered.

"It's not ordinary, why do you say ordinary?"

"Grandpa, can you count me as a slip of the tongue?

"No! Outsiders are not allowed to enter the village, and if they enter the village, they will die. Unlessβ€”"

"Unless what?"

"Unless the fire lotus gives way, the two of you will not be able to enter the village. ”

"Fire Lotus let way?" Wan Yi was at a loss when she heard this, she looked at it, and the fire lotus in front of her was inseparably clustered and growing, obviously it was a pool of creatures, how could it give way?

"Master, what should I do?"

Princess Lan Lun thought quietly about the old man's words, and she had no idea for a while.
