Chapter 182 Clouds and Rain
Chapter 182 Clouds and Rain
An hour later, Le Jinxi and Xiaoxi followed the monsters to a basin.
At first glance, there was no green at all, only dry and cracked land.
In the center of the basin, a dry river runs across the entire basin, and on both sides of the gully, there are dozens of dilapidated houses.
"Are we there yet?" Le Jinxi looked at the houses in a daze. They were all monsters after all, why were they living such a miserable life?
"Ah! Don't be surprised, young man. Natural disasters are cruel. It's good enough to be alive! How can I care about other things?" As he said this, the old raccoon's eyes were filled with tears again.
Le Jinxi interrupted him quickly: "That's enough! Stop crying, we are here!"
He turned his head to look at Xiaoxi, and seeing that she was indifferent with the spiritual herb in her mouth, he pulled her aside and asked, "How is it? Is there any way?"
Xiaoxi ignored him and just raised her hand to make a "yeah" gesture.
Le Jinxi understood instantly and said, "Two spiritual root carrots, right? Don't worry, yours won't be left out."
Xiao Xi rolled her eyes at him and said leisurely, "Two baskets!"
"Wow..." Le Jinxi almost cursed, those were spiritual root radishes, no matter how favored she was, she couldn't get two baskets!
Le Jinxi pulled her into his arms and whispered, "Do you think I would do a business that would lose money? There will be a reward for solving the problem, so let's put it this way! Don't worry about the carrots! When I give you the reward, you can pick the one first."
"Really?" Xiao Xi's eyes moved, she looked around, and asked in a low voice, "They are all in such a miserable state, can you still give them compensation?"
Le Jinxi was stunned for a moment, and after thinking for a while, he said, "It is still a tribe after all! Although it is a bit miserable, it is not completely poor, right?"
Xiaoxi pinched her chin and thought about it. She felt that it made sense, so she agreed: "I have thought of a way! But I need your help."
Le Jinxi quickly patted his chest and assured, "Don't worry! As long as you ask, I will definitely satisfy you."
At that moment, Xiao Xi explained the method to all the monsters.
The first thing is to collect as many living plants as possible, even if they are dry and dying.
The next step is to set up an altar and pray for rain, because only rain can save this land.
"You can also pray for rain?" Le Jinxi was a little surprised and somewhat unconvinced.
Xiaoxi glared at him, expressing her dissatisfaction with his suspicion.
As soon as Xiaoxi finished speaking, the old raccoon gathered all the monsters in the tribe together, explained his intentions, and then scattered them all out.
This busy work took most of the day, and as the monsters in the tribe came back one after another, all that was left in front of Le Jinxi and Xiaoxi were seven dry trees and a few wilted grasses.
"Is everything here?" Le Jinxi asked.
Seeing the old raccoon nod, he turned and looked at Xiaoxi.
Xiao Xi took a quick look and pointed out a few dead trees: "These are completely dead! They can't be used anymore! Put the rest away."
As he spoke, Xiao Xi threw out a picture and said, "Arrange it according to the picture I drew. Everything written on it must be complete. There can be no mistakes."
Le Jinxi took it and looked at it. Apart from the food needed for the altar, which he knew, the rest seemed to be a battle formation diagram.
I just threw the picture to the old raccoon! How can I do this kind of worrying thing by myself?
Soon, an altar was built on the north side of the tribe, and a two-meter-long metal rod was erected in the east, west, south and north directions of the altar.
Several banshees carried baskets and placed the contents on the altar one by one.
Just then, several male demons also came over.
One of the monsters quickly drew out the big knife from his waist and chopped the leg of the tall and mighty monster in front of him without hesitation.
One leg was neatly chopped off, and the monster didn't even make a sound as it was carried away by the other monsters!
The demon with the knife put away the knife, picked up the broken leg and placed it on the altar.
Not far away, Le Jinxi, who was watching this scene, was already stunned by their actions.
"Kill them now? They are a bunch of vicious monsters," Le Jinxi was a little worried whether he could get the reward afterwards.
Suddenly, he remembered that the sacrifice would also require an animal head, and his heart trembled. Could this also be chopped off now?
Just as he was thinking about it, he saw the old raccoon leading a group of monsters walking towards him.
"You're not going to operate on me, are you?" Le Jinxi stood still and moved his feet back involuntarily.
As they approached, the old raccoon asked, "Young man! Where is Lord Xi?"
Le Jinxi came to his senses and quickly called Xiaoxi out from the house behind him.
Xiao Xi glanced at the demons, put her hands behind her back, and said in a very mature manner, "Are you all ready?"
The demons lowered their heads and kept silent. Only the old raccoon took two steps forward and said slowly, "Master Huixi, the formation has been set up and the altar has been prepared. It's just that..."
As he spoke, tears welled up in the old raccoon's eyes: "It's just that time was short and the sacrifice was missing an animal head."
"It's not a big deal to me!" Xiao Xi said disapprovingly. With a wave of her hand, a pig head as big as a millstone flew out of the storage ring and hit the ground with a loud noise.
All the monsters were stunned and looked at the old raccoon.
The old raccoon came back to his senses and asked, "Master Xi, do you still have animal legs?"
"No animal legs either?" Xiao Xi was a little unhappy. That was her own ration! She didn't make a penny, but she had to pay for two rations.
With another wave of his hand, a thick animal leg slammed to the ground.
Seeing this, the old raccoon shouted, "Quick! Go find Granny Sheep and connect Bear Fourteen's leg."
On the side, Le Jinxi was dumbfounded!
When everything was ready, Xiao Xi stood in front of the altar, sent away all the monsters, and left only Le Jinxi by her side.
With a wave of his hand, a golden bowl appeared on the altar. Xiao Xi held up the wooden stick and muttered to herself, and a ball of clear water appeared out of thin air and fell into the golden bowl.
Then she took out a jade bottle and poured a few drops of clear liquid into the golden bowl, mixing it with the clear water in the golden bowl.
It seemed as if ice flowers were condensing on the water surface, and the next second, the water surface began to boil and roll.
Xiaoxi's mumbling gradually became louder, and finally she even hummed a tune.
The water in the golden bowl slowly rose, forming a column of water, which followed the wooden stick that Xiaoxi was waving in her hand, and wandered back and forth.
Le Jinxi was watching with great interest, he was almost eating some melon seeds!
He didn’t know if his eyes were blurry, but Le Jinxi actually saw the water column stretching out its hands and feet. Just when he wanted to see clearly, a thick fog suddenly appeared.
The fog enveloped the place in an instant, and then a dragon roar was heard, and the fog slowly rose away.
Only then did Le Jinxi see clearly that the water column had already transformed into a water dragon and was flying into the sky riding on the clouds and mist.
In the distance, the demons cheered. After a year, they finally saw hope!
The water dragon swam back and forth in the air, constantly puffing up clouds and exhaling mist. Soon, the entire sky was covered with clouds and mist, and became gloomy.
In front of the altar, Xiao Xi was not idle either. Taking advantage of this gap, she had already drawn a formation diagram on the ground, and ordered Le Jinxi to stand in the circle in the formation diagram, while she stood in another circle.
He also reminded: "Remember, don't walk the circle I drew, otherwise all your efforts will be wasted."
Le Jinxi nodded and replied, "Don't worry, I'll do the job. I won't leave the circle no matter what."
boom!
Le Jinxi was startled. He obviously did not expect that thunder and lightning would appear in the clouds in the sky.
Crack! A bolt of lightning struck down and landed on the metal rods erected on all four sides of the altar.
Le Jinxi suddenly realized, and looked at Xiaoxi with approval, saying, "You understand science."
