Chapter 16: A Minor Dilemma
Zhang Yu was still a little apprehensive when he listened to Zhang Qing's words, and he said what others said, but he only had one life.
If you really die, who knows if you will be so lucky?
But Zhang Yu looked up and wanted to communicate with Zhang Qing again, but Qing Hongyan had already arrived at his destination.
From the outside, the fire reef is not like a reef but more like an island in the lake, if it is not a matryoshka doll-like lake set island, the island is a lake, and the strange situation of the island in the lake is basically no different from the ordinary scenery.
Zhang Yu didn't feel a trace of heat, only when he closed his eyes and meditated, he could feel a trace of scorching fire aura escaping in the air.
It's just that the content is really a little little!
Zhang Yu immediately realized that this place was a little strange, but Zhang Qing was waiting for the previous garrison in the same place, and Zhang Yu was even more difficult to investigate.
"Could it be that the fire veins under this ground were extinguished instantly?"
"Or is the water vein suppressed?"
Zhang Yu's mind turned a thousand times, and for a while he forgot what he meant to communicate with Zhang Qing.
Zhang Qing is such a big Qinghong goose flew onto the fire reef, how could the fire reef not be discovered at all?
It's just that Zhang Qing's old god can't go down on Qinghongyan, and Zhang Yu doesn't have the courage to go up and admonish.
He himself knew that he had a few pounds and a few taels, and Zhang Qing would only talk to Zhang Yu when he needed to be cannon fodder, even if Zhang Qing was lecturing in the other courtyard of Zhang Laozu of the Chashan Sect, it would just be a more polite way to deal with it than others.
"Look at the back of us!"
Zhang Yu followed Zhang Qing's voice and looked behind him, just in time to see a flying sword rushing towards this side.
"What is this?"
Zhang Yu stared at the past with wide eyes, and then saw a somewhat thin monk standing on the flying sword, and quickly understood.
Those who can control the flying sword are at least the foundation monks, and in Zhang Yu's eyes, only the Purple Mansion monks can fly so fast!
Zhang Yu was also based on this situation, and immediately understood Zhang Qing's purpose of letting him look back.
This method of co-authoring to find a substitute for the dead ghost in front of him was not something Zhang Qing came up with, but a routine that has been around for a long time!
Now Changyu is even more desperate to find the idea of making up, much more honest.
Although Zhang Yu and Zhang Qing were both on Qinghongyan, Zhang Qing didn't listen to a word of the conversation between Zhang Qing and the Purple Mansion monk who was originally stationed.
Zhang Yu only heard from a few words that the Purple Mansion monk who was originally stationed was surnamed Jin.
Just this surname, Zhang Yu quickly thought of the old sister of the Jin family who was tired of being with Zhang Quan, and the deep meaning afterwards was that the Zhang family wanted to make a move with the Jin family.
Zhang Yu really can't think of it later.
Zhang Yu honestly waited for Zhang Qing to finish negotiating with the Jin-surnamed Zifu, and followed the two Zifu seniors to the Fire Reef.
Zhang Yu followed the two seniors, but his eyes turned and turned on this fire reef - this is related to his own life!
Looking at the shore of the fire reef, and looking at Changyu, you can see why this place is called a reef and not an island.
There are natural freshwater islands in the sea, and reefs are reefs without a stable source of fresh water, although some large islands may not have a natural source of fresh water, but this is generally the case.
Although the water of the island in the lake is salty at a glance, the white powder that has been evaporated and crystallized on the fire reef cannot be faked!
As soon as Zhang Yu's thoughts started, the monk surnamed Jin Zifu over there also introduced the general situation of the fire reef to Zhang Qing, and was putting away his own array plate - this thing is not cheap.
Although the disciples of the Chashan Sect are the cheapest, the fewer people who know about this kind of place that is difficult to explain, the better, and the fewer people who are interested, the better.
There are not many Qi cultivation cultivators recruited, and the Purple Mansion monks stationed in the garrison can only invest some capital.
Zhang Yu listened to the meaning of the predecessor surnamed Jin and seemed to want to sell this array to Zhang Qing, but Zhang Qing seemed to be willing to believe what he had prepared.
Those who were not prudent in the cultivation realm died.
Zhang Yu saw that Zhang Qing was observing the arrangement of the array and no one cared about him, so he came to his predecessor to replace the dead ghost and wanted to inquire.
That Changyu's predecessor seems to be not too young for the dead ghost, with white hair and wrinkles that can trap mosquitoes, Zhang Yu's words are a little polite:
"Uncle, what is your surname? I am your successor, and I am not too clear about some things when I first arrived, can I trouble you to solve your doubts?"
The old man can live here until Changyu comes to replace him, and the temper of anyone who is a little capable in the cultivation world is not small, but the rule of reaching out and not hitting the smiling face is also very marketable.
The old Qi cultivator originally thought that Zhang Yu would be young and vigorous or directly ignore himself, after all, the monks all eat the rice of youth, and they have not yet broken through the foundation building period at an age, and they will not have a chance in the future.
The respect for the old and the love for the young in the cultivation realm is also respect for those who have the ability to live for a long time, rather than waiting for death in the same realm!
It is relatively rare for Changyu to respect the elderly equally regardless of whether the realm is the same or not, but it is also very popular among the elderly.
Changyu quickly inquired about the general situation of the fire reef:
There is no shortage of fresh water near the fire reef, but on the surface it is saltwater, and only the disciples of the Water Spirit Root can go deep to draw water during the Qi cultivation period.
It's just that even this old man named Jin Chengzhi didn't dare to be too big about it, and every time he carefully took water and left quickly.
There is no other reason, the freshwater layer is next to the water vein and the fire vein, and from time to time there are demon beasts wandering out of the two underground spirit veins, although the level of the demon beast is not high, it is the same level as the qi training period, and a single demon beast can be solved by ordinary qi cultivators, but it can't stand the endless stream of demon beasts in the two spirit veins, and the amount is full!
To say that the level of these two spirit veins is not low third-order spirit veins, even if it is a pure single-attribute spirit vein, it should be quite popular, but it can't stand the two spirit veins together!
The fire poison in the water spirit root, and the water poison in the fire spirit root, can't be arranged to be a double cultivation holy land, or a double cultivation holy land with harsh conditions, right?
Zhang Yu shook his head and listened to the old man's chatter, saying that if he wanted to get water, he could only go to several other lakes dozens of kilometers away to get water.
There are also pros and cons to this approach.
You must know that as long as you don't get close to the two spirit veins, the demon beasts inside rarely attack the fire reef, but the array that no one presides over is even more difficult to block the possible sudden attacks of several nearby sects or bandits.
Although there is a high probability that this thing happens to be encountered, but if you can't stand it, the qi cultivator will die if you don't drink water, especially the fire cultivator will inevitably sweat when he practices, and it is easy to get dehydrated.
If you fetch water too many times, it is not safe after all!
