"What did you do?" asked Xiao Shi curiously, looking up.
At this time, he was squatting on the ground, rolling Xiao Qiqi around like a roller, and Xiao Qiqi made a comfortable purring sound.
A few days after the Jade Silkworm King took away Xiao Qiqi, Xiao Qiqi ran back again, and with Xiao Qiqi, there was a shy and handsome young man, the young man was shy like a girl, and he always lowered his head shyly when he spoke.
Xiao Qiqi called him Sixth Brother, and he called himself Little Liu.
A few days after Xiao Liu arrived, a group of other monsters came, with strange shapes, all kinds of looks, they called Xiao Liuliu Young Master, called Xiao Qi 77 Miss, these people were sent by the Jade Silkworm King.
In the end, the Jade Silkworm King still listened to Zi Baifeng's words and sent some monsters.
The communication between youkai and humans is beneficial to both humans and youkai.
However, at that time, Zi Baifeng was in Mengcheng, not in Linsha City.
Hearing Xiao Shi's question, it was Yan Lao Wu who answered him, he stroked his beard and said, "Your brother went to build a prisoner of war camp." ”
"Prisoner of war camp?" Xiao Shi blinked, a little puzzled, "What's that?"
"If you want to eat, you have to work, and if you don't work, you won't have anything to eat. Xiao Liu was sitting on a tree on the side, looking at the scenery in the distance, and turned his head when he heard the words, and said.
"Sounds a lot like you, brother. "Little Qiqidao.
Xiao Liu suddenly smiled bitterly, underground, as long as the monsters have the ability to act alone, they must be busy with their livelihoods, because the underground resources are too poor, there is only Xiao Qiqi, because he is the youngest, he is favored by his brothers and sisters, so he can live carefree.
In the entire Linsha City, even these little guys will help with the work, and they are also good at growing things.
Yan Lao Wu was worried, would those people really be obedient and obedient? Zi Baifeng would really have no problem doing this?
He looked into the distance, in fact, the location where Zi Baifeng was had long been so far away that he couldn't see it.
......
"Senior Brother Xiang. Xiang Anbai and the three watched Zi Baifeng leave, and Senior Brother Huang spoke: "Do we really want to work here?"
"Let's take a look at the situation first. Xiang Anbai said helplessly.
They didn't understand for the time being, why Zi Baifeng would bring them here, but Zi Baifeng must have a deep meaning.
Looking around, it was once a small town, the stone houses were half-buried in the gravel, none of them were intact, a dry well had long been filled with gravel, and a few water bags and dry food were placed next to it, which was their food.
Xiang Anbai smiled bitterly, this is really treating them as workers.
What kind of place is this? And who is the man who has reported himself to be silent?
"This is the depths of the Death Desert, but isn't the Death Desert completely inaccessible?" Senior Brother Huang said, they are already the trialists of the third phase, and the people of the first phase have left valuable experience for them at the cost of their lives, it is said that an outer disciple accidentally entered the Death Desert, and in a few breaths, he was sucked dry of the aura of his whole body and turned into a dry corpse, and the inner disciple who was in charge of leading the team, wanted to save him, and he almost fell inside, if he didn't escape quickly, he was afraid that he would also be sucked into a dry corpse.
But the scene in front of them, although still lifeless, is still alive.
What is this for?
Xiang Kishi Bai couldn't figure it out.
Senior Sister took a few steps around, but suddenly retracted her steps.
"What's wrong?" Seeing the appearance of the junior sister's heart palpitating, Xiang Anbai asked.
"Here...... The ...... in front of her "Senior Sister stretched out her hand, as if she was touching some invisible wall, stretched out the cure, and then took it back again, with a shocked face: "Outside...... It's the desert of death......"
Here, of course, it's a desert of death outside, is there anything strange about that?
He walked over to Anbai, stretched out his hand, tried it, and then abruptly retracted it.
Stretching out the fingertips, as if they had been burned by flames, he raised his fingers to see that the epidermis of his fingers had fallen off, and there was no excess aura in their bodies now, and the suction of the Death Desert absorbed their life force.
Where they are, it's a desert, yes, but it's not a desert of death.
And beyond the invisible barrier, it is.
The three of them looked at each other in shock, and looked at each other carefully, and Xiang Anbai chose the direction they came from, and then they were stunned.
With the dry well as the center, a distance of thirty zhang in a radius, it was a standard circle.
And they were imprisoned in this thirty square circles, accompanied by more than a dozen stone houses.
Only within this range will they not be harmed by the suction of the Death Desert.
"I seem to feel the aura. Senior Brother Huang suddenly exclaimed, and Xiang Anbai also felt the slightest trace of aura seeping into his body like a thin trickle from his body.
The aura became more and more intense, gradually reaching or even exceeding the level of the outside world.
The three of them didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly sat down to do their work.
After a few minutes, the three of them stood up with disappointed faces, the aura had been absorbed by them, but their bodies were still extremely empty, and this feeling of eating halfway through the meal could not be more painful.
"Could it be ......" Xiang Anbai stood up, picked up a shovel, thought for a moment, turned and walked towards the dry well, and began to shovel the sand in the dry well.
As he shoveled out the sand from the dry well, the aura seeped out from somewhere.
"Sure enough...... "No wonder Zi Baifeng left them here, leaving them with water and tools, it turned out that Zi Baifeng didn't worry about them not working at all." As much work as they do, they can use as much aura as they can, this method is similar to the way Zi Baifeng used to manage the monks in Mengcheng, but it is more refined, and the demon cultivation technique that has been upgraded again has more functions so that the porcelain tiles can also be used for more purposes, and it can be done completely.
But after knowing the reason, the three of them were even more shocked.
That Zi was silent, he was able to control the aura between heaven and earth? How did this happen? How could he do this?
"Let's work......" Senior Brother Huang smiled bitterly, no matter what, even if you want to escape, you must first recover your aura.
"As he said, we have to clean up the yellow sand of this town. He looked back at the surroundings, and most of the dozen or so stone houses had collapsed, and the wooden windows and lattices had completely decayed.
Even the metal has been completely corroded, and at the slightest touch, it will turn into powder.
A dry well, and a small empty field next to the dry well, is the center of the town, and a stone lock is next to the dry well, which is used to tie the rope hook and prevent the barrel from falling into the dry well, but the barrel and rope have long since disappeared.
Even if this world is cleared out, what can it do?
Desertified land, want to turn into fertile soil again, but it is not so simple, as the so-called destruction is easier than construction, a simple formation, can drain all the aura, but want to turn everything here back into the vibrant world, how easy is it?
It's just a dream.
......
"Brother, brother, look!" Seeing Zi Baifeng coming back, Xiao Shi jumped up and shouted loudly.
Little Stone held a bunch of grass in his hand, tender little shoots with tips, some like willow leaves, but underneath were swollen rhizomes, like a giant egg.
"What is this?" asked Zi Baifeng suspiciously.
"Brother, look. The little stone planted the grass, and under the nourishment of the huge aura that seemed to be like a blessed earth, the grass grew at a speed visible to the naked eye, and then withered rapidly, and fell to the ground, leaving only a huge rhizome, and next to the rhizome, new green shoots grew.
And the seeds that fell to the ground began to grow again.
"It's called Rongcao, and it's one of the main grains in our underground. "Little Liudao.
Zi Baifeng had just met him, but he didn't talk much, and he wasn't good at words, Zi Baifeng said a few words to him, and he lowered his head shyly, not like a big monster at all.
Zi Baifeng remembered that the most underground were all kinds of mushrooms, but he had never seen much of this grass, and he wanted to be able to survive underground, and the vitality of this grass could be imagined.
As he spoke, the grass planted by the little stone had already attracted a large patch, and these grasses grew at a very fast rate, and then withered, leaving a huge rhizome, and in the cracks of the rhizome, another little grass grew, until it was dense and a series of green.
Zi Baifeng took out a piece of Rong grass and held it in his hand.
The seemingly wide willow-like leaves are covered with a thick wax to prevent water loss, and the larger leaf area can speed up photosynthesis, and the drought tolerance of this creature will be very good. The rhizome has a lot of water and smells fruity, which is very sweet.
"I brought ......it as food," Xiao Liu explained, but he didn't expect Xiao Shi to find some seeds of Rong grass and plant them, only to find that this grass was unexpectedly suitable for growing in this kind of place.
The seeds brought by Zibaifeng are considered to grow quickly, and they are suitable for treating desert plants and trees.
But compared to Rongcao, it is a small thing.
It was probably because the soil strength of this land was overdrawn, or the growth ability of the Rong grass was weakened because it had been propagated for too many generations, and a seed propagated a small patch of green grass in a radius of three or four meters, and then it stopped.
"This large area of Rong grass, connected by roots, is actually the same Rong grass, Rong grass can only be propagated by seeds, a seed can grow a field, in our underground, it is a very important thing to keep and cultivate seeds. "Little Liudao.
"Will you?" Zi Baifeng looked up at Xiao Liu.
Xiao Liu nodded shyly.
"Great!" Zi Baifeng grabbed Xiao Liu's hand: "You come to help us, it's much faster." ”
"But in the ground, these seeds don't grow so fast...... It's too fast......" Xiao Liu cramped.
"What's the matter, you're more experienced, you come and try it, and cultivate more seeds. Zi Baifeng couldn't help but say, and pulled Xiao Liu to Yan Lao Wu: "Old man, the matter of farming is handed over to you!"
"I'll leave the farming to me, so what are you doing?" the old man was a little unhappy.
"Me?" Zi Baifeng looked at the long yellow sand, smiled, and said, "Make glass!"
