Chapter 2817 Pilgrims in the Storm (Part 1)
In the wilderness, a huge red whirlpool entrenched itself, strange and spectacular.
In the center of the whirlpool, there are four peaks, standing in all directions. They stand upright, like four ancient warriors holding long swords.
Time and sand have eroded their original appearance, leaving behind marks called vicissitudes of life.
"This is [Four Difficulties Mountain]."
On a hilltop on the edge of the whirlpool, the strong wind blew Yu Huatian's clothes rustling.
"[Four Difficulties]?" Mr. Luo asked curiously, "What are the Four Difficulties?"
"Everyone has a different understanding of the four difficulties. Some people think that good things are hard to come by, while others think that it is a hardship in life." Yuhuatian said: "But in the Sa family's view, the road is high, no matter whether it is good things that are hard to find, or it is hard to find." Life is short, just practice it yourself.”
Mr. Luo looked at the whirlpool. It was obvious that the destination of his trip was in this whirlpool - or in other words, the existence of the red whirlpool was already the first hurdle in exploring the [Red King's Tomb].
Birds occasionally flew by in the sky, but were instantly pulled towards them by the huge attraction of the vortex.
The moment the flying bird fell into the whirlpool, its body was strangled directly by the rapidly rotating airflow... Before it even had time to fall, its flesh and blood had been wiped away by the strong wind.
"This whirlpool is not only powerful in wind, but also has a terrifying power that can blow away the soul." Yu Huatian said with a solemn expression at this time: "Even an ordinary seventh-level powerful monk can't resist and penetrate deep into the center of the whirlpool. "
"Then what should we do?" Wen Duo frowned.
"If the upper road is blocked, take the lower road." Yu Huatian said directly: "The existence of [Red King's Mausoleum] is not a matter of a day or two. Everyone knows that [Red King] is the early king-level powerhouse of [Witch God Empire]. The legacy after its fall, not to mention the human monks, even the [Witch God Empire] itself wants to get it... After so many years, there will always be some amazingly talented or lucky guys who can find another way."
"Could it be that someone successfully dug in from the ground?" Wen Duo's eyes suddenly widened and he said in disbelief: "Where does this great wisdom come from?"
"Sikong Picking the Moon." Yuhuatian suddenly mentioned a name.
Wen Duo frowned, "I've never heard of it."
Yuhuatian said calmly: "He is a casual cultivator, but he seems to be a descendant of a certain gold-making family. He has been setting up a street stall in the City of White Steel, selling things picked up from the wasteland."
"Where is this person?" Wen Duo asked directly - he was really curious. The guy who can dig through the red vortex and solve the eternal problem is indeed a talent!
"The person is dead." Yu Huatian shook his head: "I heard that I won a big prize when I opened the blind box of the secret box. I was so excited that I suffered a cerebral thrombosis for decades and died."
"What the hell?" Wen Duo rolled his eyes and said unceremoniously: "What are you talking about?"
Yuhuatian didn't care at all...probably as if he had been used to it for a long time, and said without changing his expression: "Although Sikong Zhaiyue is dead, his son is still there, named Sikong Ju... In him, I found Sikong Zhaiyue Zhai Yue left a key to open the mausoleum, and the Sa family later found an exploration notebook in Sikong Zhaiyue’s home, which recorded the route Sikong Zhaiyue used to dig through the red whirlpool.”
When Yu Huatian was talking about this moment, he glanced at the maid standing behind Mr. Luo, intentionally or unintentionally.
It's just that it's hard for others to see a trace of ripples in this perfect face.
"What's going on with Sikong Ju?" Wen Duo said thoughtfully, "I can dig out the red whirlpool. He is really capable... How can this son of mine learn something?"
"No." Yuhuatian shook his head: "On the contrary, Sikong Ju is a complete waste. Do you know why the Sa family got the key from him so easily? That's because after Sikong Zhaiyue died, this guy had no money. , took the initiative to find it with the key, intending to sell it. The notebook I found was also used as a stepping stone for the game table... and even some were chewed by cockroaches. "
"This Sikong Zhaiyue should jump out of the coffin." Wen Duo shook his head, "If labor and management have such a coward, they will be buried alive... Hey, Lao Yu, you didn't bring this Sikong Ju with you, did you? ?”
"Use the waste." Yuhuatian said calmly: "Although it is a waste, no matter how wasteful it is, some traces of my father can still be thrown away. The record of the route in the handbook is vague... Just look at this Sikong Ju, have you learned anything from Sikong Zhaiyue?"
Mr. Luo suddenly said: "Master Yu, I don't know if this note can be made public."
Yuhuatian said directly: "Since Mr. Luo wants to see it, the Sa family and others will have someone copy it for you about the records of the [Red King's Mausoleum]."
"Thank you." Mr. Luo smiled slightly.
At this time, Yuhuatian called a man in Jinyi and ordered: "Set up camp and rest in place, and we will officially start exploring tomorrow."
Since they left the City of White Steel, they have not stopped all the way, and even encountered several waves of assassination harassment on the way. At this time, it is necessary to take a short rest before the official exploration.
…
…
There are even some abandoned camps nearby - obviously, the white-steel Jinyi in this group is not the first to want to go deep into the red vortex.
It's just that the red vortex is like a natural barrier, blocking the footsteps of countless people for countless years.
This is true for human monks, and so is the local alien species in [Foreign Battlefield] - perhaps, at this time, there are still people on the other side of the red vortex who are worrying about how to pass through this red vortex.
"Be sure to set up camp before dark! If anyone is lazy, don't blame my 40-meter long whip!"
The errands of setting up camp are naturally done by the lowest-ranking reservists - they not only have to set up camp, but they even have to make fires to cook and serve the real Jinyi adults.
Zhao Huaian was rolling up his sleeves and lighting a fire - he was responsible for taking care of the captured killers along the way, as well as the diet of more than a dozen lizardmen.
"Hey, this thing is for people to eat."
At this time, I saw Mr. Wu stirring the pot a few times with a spoon.
Zhao Huaian said: "Boss, why don't you give your noble rations to those lowly lizard people?"
"Xenomorphs are not human beings." Boss Wu laughed loudly, "Eating food that is not human food is just right... Hey, wait for the labor and management to add some ingredients!"
After saying that, Mr. Wu sprinkled a handful of soil directly into the pot and spit a few mouthfuls of thick phlegm into it.
——So cheap!
"Boss, is there someone calling you over there?" Zhao Huaian pointed forward.
Boss Wu turned his head subconsciously and looked ahead suspiciously - but he never thought that Zhao Huaian would move like lightning at this time, taking a small spoonful from the pot and adding it directly to the broth in Boss Wu's hand.
"There is no one, who is looking for me?"
"Oh, I seem to have made a mistake." Zhao Huaian shook his head.
Boss Wu waved his hand and hit Zhao Huaian on the back of the head. He cursed and walked away while drinking the broth, "Well... why does it taste weird?"
Zhao Huaian chuckled softly, picked up the big pot, and walked quickly to the place where a kind of captives were temporarily detained - but when passing by a camp, he saw no one around, so he directly moved the big pot in front of the camp. The pot was replaced.
"You are lucky, this is the work of super chef Wu Laoda who vomited blood, hehe..."
At this time, Xiao Zhao held up the fragrant broth with a sly smile on his face, and then walked away clumsily looking for a way to go. Unexpectedly, when he just raised his head, his eyes changed slightly.
"Luo... Mr. Luo, hello." Zhao Huai calmed down.
He didn't know what would happen to this mysterious young master who suddenly appeared - the key was, there was no movement at all.
Mr. Luo said: "Are you going to deliver food to those alien species?"
Zhao Huaian nodded.
"If you don't mind, I also want to go see them." Mr. Luo smiled and said, "Can I go with you?"
"Oh, good?"
…
As the two of them walked in the gradually built camp, Zhao Huaian couldn't even feel the slightest sense of oppression from Mr. Luo... It was as if he was a friend he had known for many years.
He even helped carry a pot of food to feed the alien species.
"Speaking of it, being a doctor is really a profession with a very promising future and a lot of money." Zhao Huaian suddenly sighed.
Mr. Luo cast a glance.
Zhao Huaian smiled and said: "You see, as long as you have good medical skills, there will always be people who will try their best to please you. Because no one knows whether he will get some strange and complicated disease tomorrow... So, doctor friends are It’s really manageable.”
Mr. Luo thought for a while and said: "If this doctor's medical skills are not very good, if he is helpless when facing a dying patient, or if he is distracted, the life that could have been rekindled falls into the abyss." .”
Zhao Huaian was startled and said: "According to you, Master, is being a doctor still a high-risk profession?"
"Actually, it's still a very lucrative career." Mr. Luo chuckled and said, "If you happen to cure a big shot, it will be enough for a lifetime."
——Damn, this guy is so naughty!
Zhao Huaian murmured in his heart, feeling that this short time together became more and more natural, so natural that people instinctively let go of all their guard, as if... scary.
——What a terrifying social ability that kills both men and women.
"Master Luo, why did you suddenly think of going to see those alien lizard people at this time?" Zhao Huaian asked the doubts in his heart.
"I wanted to take a look from the beginning." Mr. Luo smiled casually and said, "Isn't this Master Yu running all the way and just stopped."
"Okay...it seems like that's true?" Zhao Huaian opened his mouth, okay...I'm afraid Mr. Luo is a real person.
Those lizard-human alien species that Yuhuatian Zunbei used to spy on the trap were imprisoned in a temporarily dug cave... Two official men with swords and brocade clothes were guarding them.
Zhao Huaian obviously got along well with these two Jin Yis and said hello when he came up.
"Are you Mr. Luo?"
But soon, the attention of the guard Jin Yi was attracted by Mr. Luo - they naturally did not dare to neglect this young holy hand who even Yu Huatian wanted to treat with courtesy.
"Young Master Luo wants to see these lizard-human mutants?" Guard Jin Yi asked in surprise: "Oh, could it be that Mr. Luo also plans to study the lizard-human mutants?"
"Yeah?" Mr. Luo blinked.
"Mr. Lu just left." Na Jinyi nodded and said, "It's about research on the body structure of lizard people... Do you need me to help you catch one?"
Judging from Yu Huatian's attitude towards Mr. Luo, I believe he would not be stingy with a half-lizard man.
"Okay." Mr. Luo nodded, "Then I'll bother you two."
"No trouble! No trouble!"
…
"You originally planned to study these alien species." Zhao Huaian was looking at him with an unexpected but reasonable look.
As a doctor who wanted to study the physical structure of alien species, Zhao Huaian couldn't even find any reason to doubt.
"It doesn't hurt to take a look." Mr. Luo responded calmly.
Soon, the two Jinyi caught a lizardman mutant—different from other lizardman mutants, the lizardman that was captured now had a grayish-white color all over its body.
Its scales, skin, and even its eyes are all gray in color.
"Master Luo." Jin Yi said quickly at this time: "Among the lizard men caught this time, there are two that are special. Mr. Lu has already taken one away, so I will simply bring up the remaining one for you. Anyway, They wouldn't have lived long."
The captured gray-white lizard man looked gloomy at this moment... He didn't even struggle, because struggling was useless. Each lizard man was shackled and couldn't break free at all.
"There is a temporarily dug cave next to it." Na Jinyi added at this time: "It was originally used by Mr. Lu... How about you use it temporarily?"
"Okay." Mr. Luo simply nodded.
Soon, Liang Jinyi sent the gray-white lizard man directly into the cave next to him. As for Zhao Huaian, after giving the food to the two Jinyi, he had nothing else to do.
Although the reserve service...the handyman is responsible for taking care of it, the actual care of this kind of thing needs to be done professionally.
It seemed that Zhao Huaian had not actually come into contact with these lizard-human alien species - but Zhao Huaian did not leave at this time, let alone request, but followed Mr. Luo into the cave without saying a word.
He wanted to see what this mysterious young doctor was going to do.
At this time, in the cave, the gray-white lizard man was huddled in the corner, looking nervous, but trying his best to maintain a calm appearance.
Then, some strange syllables came out of the gray-white lizard's mouth - given its nervous, frightened and slightly angry look, it was not difficult to guess what it wanted to express.
"You can understand our conversation, right?" Mr. Luo said abruptly.
The gray-white lizard man became more and more excited, and the strange syllables he uttered became even sharper.
Mr. Luo said calmly: "We were talking just now... When we talked about your next situation, you became obviously angrier. Maybe you can understand, but you can't speak human language... Or maybe you can understand it, but you can't speak human language... , you actually know how to do it, you just don’t intend to expose it.”
The gray-white lizard man stopped those strange syllables.
Mr. Luo smiled and said, "Are you going to eavesdrop secretly, looking for opportunities?"
The gray-white lizard man was silent.
Mr. Luo snapped his fingers, and the shackles that bound the gray-white lizard man were instantly broken. However, the moment he regained his freedom, the gray-white lizard man's pupils opened instantly.
"There's no point in killing me."
The sharp claws stopped abruptly - in front of Mr. Luo.
"Even if you kill me, it will be difficult for you to leave this place." Mr. Luo said calmly: "Even because of my death, other human tribes will be angry with you...and your tribe, maybe their situation will be different It becomes more difficult.”
It slowly retracted its sharp claws... and lowered them. It even said sadly in the unskilled human language: "What... do you want to do to me... If you really want my body, just take it." Yes, but please let my people go."
"Female...female?" Zhao Huaian couldn't help but widen his eyes slightly.
Not only is it a female lizardman alien, but her voice is also particularly pleasant. I'm surprised that this female lizardman is all gray and white, not as rough as ordinary lizardmen. She actually has a pretty face when she looks at it?
——Damn it, I must have been single for too long! !
…
…
Red vortex... [Four Difficulties] A corner of the mountain.
A team of hundreds of people was seen, looking quite tired at this time, digging into the mountain with difficulty in the cracks as a temporary shelter from the wind.
——The team of [Bodhi Castle].
"I didn't expect that this whirlpool was so terrifying. If the two master uncles hadn't worked together to open up the barrier, I'm afraid not many of them would have been able to carry it safely until now."
At this time, the twin sisters couldn't help but frowned as they looked at the [Xieyue Mountain] disciples who still looked weak even though they were protected by the barrier.
Because they haven't even completed half of the journey to the outer layer of the whirlpool...the road further inside will only become more difficult. But along the way, they did not encounter the Jinyi team from the City of White Steel.
I think it's because [Bodhi Castle] has successfully moved ahead of the White Steel City team.
"Sister Qingyan, there seems to be someone in the storm!"
A scream.
The twin sisters looked over instantly and saw a swaying figure in the red storm, walking slowly... not afraid of the terrifying red storm at all, and seemed quite relaxed.
"Everyone is on alert!" The twin sister gave the order without saying a word.
Everyone watched nervously... and the figure walking in the storm became increasingly clear... Finally, Qing Yan could clearly see the appearance of the person coming.
"It's a different species!"
But the strange thing is that this alien species actually kneels once every three steps and kowtows once every nine steps, with a focused look on his face... as if he has never seen the human race in front of him.
Its target seems to be the [Four Difficulties] Mountain behind the [Bodhi Castle] where everyone is...
