It started to rain again outside, and it could be heard clearly even in the house.
Red Rock Forest really has several rains every day, and sometimes it doesn't stop all day long, and the whole world is trapped in a world of red mist.
Except for the red rock that was eroded by the red rain, no flesh and blood creature could resist the red rain.
"Is there no other way?" Wen Qiao couldn't help asking.
If they were on their way outside and it rained suddenly and they couldn't find a place to hide, wouldn't they be drenched in blood by the red rain, leaving no bones left
Ning Yuzhou looked out of the window and said, "Let me study it."
Seeing that he used a stone bowl made of red rock to put some research on Hongyu, Wen Qiao and the others did not bother him, and continued to wander around the city to ask for more news, in case they needed it.
Wen Qiao took Wen Gungun and his father-in-law to find out how to avoid the erosion of red rain.
Naturally, Ning Jichen was in charge of inquiring. As the former emperor of Dongling, he was in charge of the entire Dongling. He has a flexible mind and a good view of the overall situation. He knows when and what to do. The key is that he knows the art of speaking.
Otherwise, if Wen Qiao asked with a straight face, even if people answered her for the sake of her good looks, it would be a bit awkward and easily lead to conflicts. What's more, most of the people in Hongqiu City are desperadoes and act fiercely. When they see a beautiful female cultivator, they can't help but want to take advantage of it, or have evil thoughts in their hearts. How can Ning Jichen be willing to let his beautiful and well-behaved daughter-in-law suffer
After they inquired, they found that the cultivators in this place had nothing to do with that red rain.
"If it's raining in the wild, you can only find a place nearby that can shelter from the rain, or dig one out yourself. However, those red rocks have been modified by Hongyu, which is not only corrosion-resistant, but also difficult to dig. Before the digging was finished, people were drenched into pools of blood by the rain."
"If you want to say that the fastest digging in this Red Rock Forest is those red-haired rats."
"No, when the Red Rock Forest changed, many monsters fled, only the red-haired rat stayed behind. Regardless of their low level, digging a red-haired cave can be done neatly. Take a red-haired rat and take it It’s also convenient to help dig holes in the wild.”
"Isn't that so..."
Hearing this, Wen Qiao finally realized.
After entering Hongqiu City, she found that many cultivators kept red-haired rats. At that time, she was surprised. After all, red-haired rats were of a low level, and they were not ideal contract beasts for cultivators.
Since she could only dig a hole, Wen Qiao thought of Wen Gungun.
"I don't know if Wen Gungun can dig, let's go outside and test it." Wen Qiao said, hugging Wen Gungun from her shoulders to her arms, rubbing its hairy head, and said softly, "Wen Gungun, We rely on you, you have to work hard."
Sister Wen said so, what can it do
The lazy Wen Gungun stretched out his paw and put it on her hand, expressing that he had no objection.
Picking a time when it wasn't raining, Wen Qiao and his team ran outside Hongqiu City to test Wen Gungun's ability to dig holes.
Wen Qiao, Shi Wuming, Wen Tutu and others tested the hardness of the red rock.
First of all, Wen Qiao. She used her spirit sword to strike at Hongyan, but a piece of Hongyan was sliced off, and a hole was missing in the spirit sword. It is estimated that after a few more uses, the spirit sword will be useless.
This is also the reason why everyone said that it is unrealistic to use spiritual weapons to dig holes. No amount of spiritual tools is enough, not to mention the shortage of resources in the Red Rock Forest, no practitioner is willing to use spiritual tools to dig holes.
Then there was Shi Wuming, who even cut a few swords, but didn't even cut off any stone chips, which made Wen Tutu despise him very much.
Wen Tutu also tried to dig with his paws, making a bang bang bang sound, and finally panted from exhaustion, and only dug a shallow hole, and could only stuff himself in the size of a Tutu.
After Ning Jichen looked at it, he knew that the red rock was really hardened by Hongyu, and it was not easy to dig.
After everyone had tried, Wen Gun Gun was left.
Wen Gungun jumped onto a red rock several feet high, climbed up and down there, knocked here, scraped with his claws there, and then stuck his claws in, like digging tofu, quickly digging out a hole.
"Oh, Wen Gungun is really amazing!" Shi Wuming and Wen Tutu praised it.
Wen Gungun crawled out of the hole and proudly raised his head towards them.
"Then we will rely on Wen Gungun from now on." Wen Qiao fed Wen Gungun a panacea, "Wen Gungun is better at digging holes than those red-haired rats."
They had inquired about the digging speed of a seventh-order red-haired mouse before, and it was simply not as good as Wen Gungun, a young digging expert.
The bloodline level of the red-haired rats is not high, and the seventh level is already their limit, and they cannot go any further. Many practitioners want to tame a seventh-level red-haired mouse. There is a seventh-level red-haired mouse that walks in the Red Rock Forest, which is more secure.
After the test, they hurried back to the city to avoid being caught in the rain again.
As soon as he arrived at the gate of the city, he saw a group of cultivators wearing bright red cloaks entering the city. The leader was a male cultivator with a cold face. Next to the male cultivator were two female cultivators, one was lively and playful, the other was pale and weak. The pale and weak female cultivator's footsteps were flimsy, probably either injured or sick.
When entering the city, the cold and tall male cultivator looked back at the pale and weak female cultivator, and stretched out his hand to support her.
Seeing this, the pretty and lively female cultivator at the side quickly squeezed over, "Brother Leng, Sister Wen seems to be very bad, let's go in quickly." Then she said to the pale and weak female cultivator, "Sister Wen, I will help you."
Before the two of them could react, she stretched out her hand to support him, and squeezed between them abruptly.
Seeing this, Leng Li Nanxiu didn't say anything. After paying the entrance fee, the group entered the city.
Wen Qiao and the others walked behind. Seeing this group of people, they knew that they came from other places, probably for the Meteor Dragon, so they didn't pay much attention.
They strolled around the street, bought some special products of Hongyan Forest, and just returned to the inn.
As soon as I arrived at the inn, I heard an unhappy female voice: "Why didn't you get a room? Do you know who I am? Hurry up and get some rooms for us."
The shopkeeper still said the same words: "Sorry, there are no upper rooms, only inferior rooms."
The pretty and lively female cultivator was so angry that she turned her head and said, "Brother Leng, look at them, they don't give face at all!"
There were quite a few people in the inn who looked over there as if they hadn't seen anything, and when they heard this, they all laughed.
Leng Linan repaired: "Then let's go to other rooms, give us eight."
"Brother Leng!" The pretty nun stomped her feet angrily, how could they live in those inferior rooms
The cold male cultivator ignored her, took the eight jade keys handed over by the shopkeeper, distributed them to the accompanying guards, and helped the weak female cultivator to leave.
The pretty and lively female cultivator leaned forward again, supported her again, and said reluctantly: "Brother Leng, you can't do this, how can you lower your status? If my father comes, would they still dare to neglect us like this? Wen Sister, don’t you think so?”
The female cultivator surnamed Wen smiled on her pale face, and said softly, "Sister Yan, we are away from home, so let's make do with it."
"you… "
These words made the female cultivator surnamed Yan very angry, her complexion changed, but because of the cold and cruel male cultivator next to her, she couldn't lose her temper, so she had to swallow it down, but the strength of her hand that supported her became stronger.
The nun surnamed Wen frowned, but didn't say anything.
Seeing this group of people being taken away by the little boy, many practitioners in the inn didn't care.
Wen Qiao could vaguely hear the discussion among the crowd, saying that the father of the female cultivator surnamed Yan must have a lot of background, otherwise she would not be able to raise such a lively and delicate daughter.
In the Red Rock Forest, every cultivator strives to survive, earning his life to the sky, fighting for himself, and rarely doing whatever he wants. However, there are also some practitioners who are naturally more comfortable than others. These are protected by high-level practitioners. They have no shortage of cultivation resources and can do whatever they want. They don’t take the hardships of the Red Rock Forest seriously, because some All difficulties will be smoothed out for them.
This nun surnamed Yan is one example.
Later, Wen Qiao heard someone knocking on the door.
She scanned out with her consciousness, and found that it was the female cultivator surnamed Yan, and she was accompanied by a guard with a dull expression, Yuan Zongjing cultivation base, who should be protecting her.
Seeing her keep knocking on the door, Wen Qiao had no choice but to hold Wen Gungun and open the door.
When the door opened and the female cultivator surnamed Yan saw the person who opened the door, surprise appeared in her eyes, and she became vigilant.
Wen Qiao asked expressionlessly, "Is there something wrong?"
The female cultivator surnamed Yan did not speak, looked at her for a moment, and then said: "My name is Yan Chuyao, I want to change rooms with you, and I will pay you ten times the rent with spirit stones."
Yan Chuyao was not used to living in a middle-class room, and felt that it was cramped and small, not only bad in air, but also unsuitable for her status, so she naturally wanted to change to a first-class room.
They came late, the superior and medium rooms were already full, and only the waiting rooms were left. Yan Chuyao naturally didn't want to wrong herself, and more importantly, Leng Yi was there too, how could she be willing to wrong Brother Leng.
So Yan Chuyao wanted to come to the superior room to find someone to change the room, because this room was relatively outside, so she directly knocked on this room.
She didn't expect that the nun who opened the door had such an amazing appearance. As a woman, she was also amazed by her. Then she was worried that such an appearance would be unbearable to men. What if Brother Leng took a fancy to her
She was worried, but when she proposed to change rooms, she was extremely confident, thinking that this person should know who she was after hearing her name, and would definitely agree to change rooms.
"No change!" Wen Qiao said, closing the door directly.
Yan Chuyao: "..."
Yan Chuyao blushed, and was so angry that she almost smashed the door into pieces violently. But thinking of Leng Yi in the inferior room, he had no choice but to stop and angrily knock on the room next door.
The door next door opened, and there was a handsome young man with a smile on his lips. That clear and handsome appearance seemed to be a young young man raised by a pampered family, which gave Yan Chuyao the illusion of seeing the same kind.
She grew up pampered by her father since she was a child. She claims to be different from those practitioners in the Red Rock Forest, and she has always been proud of her status.
Seeing such a similar person who seemed to be spoiled by the elders, Yan Chuyao's tone was much better, "I want to change rooms with you, come out..."
"No change!"
"..."
Yan Chuyao was so angry that she was about to make a move, but was stopped by the dull guards, so she had no choice but to move forward.
Walking to the third room, the room change was finally successful, but Yan Chuyao had already remembered the people in the first two rooms, so she didn't want to change rooms with her, we'll see!
—
The next day, when Wen Qiao and Shi Wu ordered them to go out, they happened to see Yan Chuyao coming out from the next door.
She glared at the two of them, then strode away with the dull guard, and went to the lower class room.
"There's something wrong!" Shi Wuming was speechless, "Didn't you agree to change rooms? Why is this girl so angry?"
Wen Qiao's expression was as usual, she didn't take this matter to heart at all, and took her father-in-law and Wen Tutu to continue wandering around Hongqiu City to learn about the situation.
As the time of the meteor dragon's birth approached, more and more practitioners flocked to Hongqiu City, causing more and more people in Hongqiu City, and the law and order became more chaotic.
Practitioners are not forbidden to fight in Hongqiu City, but what is damaged must be repaid a hundred times. This repayment alone makes many practitioners daunting, lest they take out their underwear and still not be able to pay enough. In the end, they can only If you sell yourself to be a coolie in Hongqiu City, you have to take off a layer of skin.
Wen Qiao's appearance is extremely prosperous, she belongs to the top class among handsome men and beautiful women, naturally many people stare at her with malicious intentions.
As a result, Wen Qiao punched the person who made the attack into the street, and directly crushed his head into the pit where the red raindrops came out. This violent action scared many people away in an instant.
If a female cultivator only has beauty, she will only become a pet kept by a male cultivator; but if a female cultivator is beautiful and powerful, the male cultivator can only be scared away, so how dare he think otherwise
For this reason, Shi Wuming also sighed, "Originally, I planned to protect Sister Aqiao, but I didn't know that Sister Aqiao acted so fast, and didn't even give us a chance to make a move."
Even Wen Tutu couldn't help nodding, feeling that he was useless.
Wen Qiao rubbed his head, "Wen Tutu is our trump card, it is more useful to expose it at critical times, there is nothing to do now."
Wen Tutu immediately became happy, restrained his aura, and treated himself as a weak and innocent child, pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger everywhere.
Ten days passed in a flash.
When the sky was slightly bright, some practitioners hurried out of the city before it rained.
Wen Qiao and others also followed the large group of troops out of the city. The practitioners were flying above the red rock with their swords. Wen Qiao looked and found that there were hundreds of thousands of people leaving the city this time.
Not too much, but not too little either.
Hongqiu City is not far from the Red Bone River, and at the speed of a cultivator, it can be reached within an hour.
When they arrived at the Red Bone River, it happened that it was raining again, and the practitioners were looking for places to hide from the rain.
Those who are fast have already selected some existing caves. Those who are slow can only say bad luck, and quickly ask the red-haired mouse they carry with them to help dig the hole, and dig deeper.
Wen Qiao and the others didn't compete with those practitioners, they specially picked a place far away, and asked Wen Gungun to dig a hole.
Wen Gungun dug a deep and wide cave, some distance from the ground, so there is absolutely no need to worry about being flooded.
When Wen Gungun was digging the hole, Wen Qiao and the others saw someone not far away, looked up, and found that it was Yan Chuyao and his group, and they even brought three seventh-level red-haired rats to dig the hole very quickly.
It is said that in the Red Rock Forest, a person who can own three seventh-level red-haired rats cannot be provoked.
When Yan Chuyao found out that it was them, she snorted softly. She was a little proud that they had three red-haired mice, but she didn't know that the other party walked into a wider hole without even looking at them. not happy.
She walked into the cave, saw the female cultivator being helped in by Leng Yi, and hurried forward, "Sister Wen, I will help you."
Wen Yi smiled at her, endured the discomfort in her body, sat down against the wall, looked up at the red rain outside, and frowned slightly.
Her eyes turned slightly, and she saw Leng Yi standing in front of the cave and Yan Chuyao surrounded him, chattering non-stop, but Leng Yi didn't respond to her very much, and only occasionally responded, letting Yan Chuyao Yao is very happy.
Wen Yi lowered her eyes and smiled self-deprecatingly.
On the other side, Wen Qiao and the others also huddled in front of the cave, looking at the Red Bone River in the distance through the rain curtain.
"This is the Red Bone River? Isn't it too big?" Shi Wuming exclaimed.
Wen Qiao recalled the scene he saw when he came here, looking down from a high altitude, the Red Bone River lying on the ground is like a winding python, the rocks on both sides are higher, the river bed is wide, and the tumbling red river water It is very spectacular to gallop forward in a mighty way.
Just as they were observing the Red Bone River, the tumbling water suddenly soared into the sky, and a cold and evil aura spread around.
