Chapter 377: Yu Shengguo Kong Qing shook his head, "What happened back then...

Kong Qing shook his head. "The events of that year were recorded in detail. After discovering the anomaly, we investigated countless times but found nothing unusual. Fortunately, the rainwater seemed to be blocked, so in the end, we had to let it go."

A few people found it quite interesting and stepped into the heavy rain, but there was no strange reaction as they had imagined.

Xu Hui reached out to catch the rain, just as she remembered it, and there didn't seem to be anything strange about it.

She looked at the others. Wei Mubai and the others were indifferent, but Kong Qing and Chi Niang unconsciously looked serious.

Xu Hui raised her hand and created a barrier around them to protect them from the rain.

As for the others, they had already used their own methods to keep the rain away from their bodies.

Going forward, the flat dirt road turned into a gravel road paved with white stones. These gravel stones were of different sizes, but they were laid flatly, forming strange patterns, like dragon patterns of different sizes, with small ones forming large ones, looking layered.

When I walked to a wooden bridge, I felt that the river water flowing under the bridge had a strong dragon energy.

"I wonder where this river flows to?" Xu Hui jumped and walked downstream.

Until a mountain blocked the way, they went into the water to explore and found that it was very deep below, like a bottomless pool.

After spending a lot of effort and diving to the bottom, I found a very ancient altar with a very strange magic circle engraved on it.

Xu Hui verified it briefly and found that it was actually a gathering of dragon energy.

It will absorb the dragon energy and, through transformation, increase the dragon energy of this world.

However, this formation was half-broken and could not absorb the free dragon energy from the outside, nor could it convert it. It only had the two most basic functions of inhalation and release.

Perhaps the riot at that time broke the remaining formations and caused the remaining ones to restart.

This caused it to begin absorbing dragon energy. Rainwater does contain dragon energy, but it also contains a substance that can dissolve dragon energy.

The formation could not be debated, so it absorbed everything, and because of the transformation and destruction, it was released in the form of rain.

This is the reason why it rains all year round in the vicinity, and the three days in between are probably the three days when the formation is ineffective.

But this cannot explain why the weather was so severe during these three days.

Therefore, there must be other reasons for the abnormal weather in this area.

After the investigation was complete, Xu Hui returned to the ground and entered the town with everyone else.

Heavy rain poured down, but strangely enough, the eaves of the wooden houses in the small town were not wet. The rain slid down quickly, and after falling to the ground, the soil was still dry, and the water stains instantly sank into the ground.

It was as if it was not rain, but an illusion.

The streets are bustling with people walking on and off.

The clothes they wore were very strange, shining softly in the rain, as if they were a layer of shield that kept the rain out.

Everyone wore a hat or a conical hat of various styles and colors.

Isn’t it possible that the creativity of the entire town is reflected in this?

The clothes are all the same, with simple styles, but the hats are all different, which is very wonderful and beautiful.

The eaves of the wooden houses on the street are very wide, leaving just enough space for setting up stalls.

The snack stalls are steaming hot and filled with fragrance, which whets people's appetite.

A stall owner was skillfully flipping the food in an iron pot, causing oil to splash everywhere and making a sizzling sound.

He saw Xu Hui and the others and greeted them warmly, "Dear guests, would you like some Yusheng shortbread? It's made with my own unique recipe and it's very fragrant!"

"Oh, I see that most of the food sold on this street is made from rainforest fruit. Why is yours better than others?" Xu Hui was not vague and took out a round bead the size of a thumb nail and handed it to him.

This is the currency of this world, modeled after Dragon Ball, and made of a rare, beautiful, but useless mineral crystal.

The only advantage of this mineral crystal is that it shines brightly in the sun and looks very beautiful.

And currently it is only found on a high mountain thousands of miles away from the Dragon God Sect. When the founder of the Dragon God Sect discovered this place, he fenced it off.

Later, this was used to make currency to measure transactions, so seals were used and a fixed amount was collected every year.

Before coming in, Kong Qing gave each of them a big bag.

The stall owner laughed heartily upon hearing this. "My food is neither better nor worse than anyone else's. We've refined the recipes over countless years, and they're all delicious. It's obvious you're from out of town, so why not try them all? Maybe you'll find the one that suits your taste best."

"oh?"

Xu Hui took a bite and was immediately amazed by how delicious it was. The crust was crispy, the filling was soft and glutinous, with a sweet and rich fruity aroma and abundant juice. If you didn’t know better, you would think you were eating a very full fruit.

At the moment when the juice bursts, all the flavors are mixed together. It does not appear messy, but rather has distinct layers, becoming more and more rich and sweet. It is so delicious that you almost want to swallow your tongue.

After swallowing, I felt a coolness flowing through my body, and I felt relaxed both physically and mentally.

Of course, it only lasted for a moment, and then the feeling disappeared.

Obviously, they are spiritual cultivators, and this rain-producing fruit is of no benefit to them.

However, Xu Hui couldn't wait to take another bite, and then guided the clear stream into the dragon pattern in the sea of ​​consciousness. The dragon pattern shook, and seemed to be very comfortable, and a sense of pleasure was transmitted through the contract.

Xu Hui was also very happy and said directly, "I'll buy all your pastries."

"Ah?" The stall owner was surprised and said quickly, "That cool feeling only makes people feel comfortable for a moment, it doesn't have much effect. Customers are not..."

"I think it tastes good," Xu Hui interrupted him and looked at Wei Mubai.

Wei Mubai nodded slightly at her, and with a wave of his hand, countless liquid crystals flew to the front of the stalls. At the same time, everyone heard a sentence, "Prepare all the food and put it in the food boxes in front of you. Anyone who has preserved rain fruit at home can exchange it for liquid crystals."

Everyone was stunned and stopped what they were doing. They looked over in confusion. When they saw the figure who looked like a banished immortal in front of them, they immediately understood that it must be the cultivator from outside who came in.

This surprised them that a monk could actually come in.

But anyone would be a fool not to make some money from the liquid crystal stones, especially since what was in front of them was more than ten times the amount of food on their stall.

So they all accepted the liquid crystals, prepared food in portions, and put them into food boxes.

When the pedestrians on the street saw this situation, they stopped shopping and rushed home, ready to sell all their stocks for money.

Having lived in the town for generations, they have long mastered the methods of collecting and preserving rain fruit, and there are many methods, not just one.

Therefore, they can use rain fruit to make various foods.

This is also because the only things that are edible in this town are pluvia fruits and pluvia leaves that can be extracted to make fibers for making clothes.

This kind of clothing can just keep out the rain, the rain in their town, and is useless outside.

Moreover, this kind of fabric cannot withstand the sun and will become tattered after one day.

However, there are more sunny days than rainy days outside, so this kind of fabric is of no use outside.

However, rain fruit and rain fruit crystals are only useful to monks, but their number is limited, and they only need to collect a certain amount every year.

And these are enough to bring them a wealthy, well-fed, warm and materially rich life.

The remaining rain fruits were of no use, so I used them to make delicious food.

Seeing that everyone on the street was taking action, a few people went to a tea stall and sat down.

The tea stall owner smiled and served hot tea, which was also brewed with a mixture of rain fruit and various teas. The tea had a fruity fragrance, which was very unique and charming.

Xu Hui took a sip and suddenly thought of something. "They use liquid crystal stone as currency here, but how are they going to establish a monetary system when they get out? And this town is so peculiar... They make a living from this, so how are they going to survive in the outside world?"

It would be easy to move everyone out, but not everyone can practice. Most of them are still mortals. They need to settle down and have a skill to survive.

Before, Xu Hui didn’t think so much about it, she just thought that the whole thing would just need to be moved out.

But she forgot that the unique lifestyle created by the unique environment can never be replicated once you leave this environment.

Just like this small town, it relies entirely on rain-growing fruit, which is related to dragon energy.

How many small towns like this are there in this world, as well as industries that rely on dragon energy and people who make a living from it?

In addition, the currency they use is completely different from that of the outside world. The spar is just beautiful and worthless in the outside world. It is not even qualified to be used to set jewelry.

But we can't let their monetary system collapse directly, there must be a way of exchange.

These are things that Xu Hui, the master of Dragon Domain, should consider.

She looked through her own space. Although she was not poor, she definitely could not afford to exchange the wealth of more than 100 million people.

"Don't worry about that. Not only has the world merged with a small world, but there are already mature mechanisms in place to ensure a smooth transition. As for the currency exchange you mentioned, after calculating purchasing power, we'll find a suitable exchange rate and double the amount."

How much are these liquid crystal stones owned by mortals worth? This can be fully compensated by the various strange things that grow in this land.

In fact, they could just give everyone spirit stones, a simple and crude arrangement.

But if you give too much, it will easily attract covetousness, after all, most of them are mortals.

Only by giving the appropriate amount and arranging some monks to garrison can we ensure a smooth transition in the early stages.

Later on, he naturally integrated into the world of cultivation and it was not a problem at all.

Xu Hui suddenly realized how could she have forgotten about this matter. This was the world of cultivation. The more special the place, the more precious the various strange things that were born there were. Regardless of whether they were useful or not, they would be bought back for a large sum of money for research.

Therefore, there is no need to worry about their short-term livelihood issues. In the long term, after several generations of adaptation, they must have adapted to the life and rules of the cultivation world.

She was just worrying too much and her mindset hasn't changed yet.

After figuring it out, Xu Hui drank her tea peacefully, waiting for the food boxes to return to her one by one, and then float out to fill them with food and bring them back.

In just half a day, she harvested hundreds of thousands of rain fruits, including dried fruits, candied fruits, preserved wet fruits, etc. Thousands of kinds of prepared food.

She didn't take some out to share with everyone, and every one of them was extremely delicious.

Xu Hui couldn't help but think that she was worrying too much about these people's livelihoods.

With their skills, they will definitely be able to make a good living outside.

There are so many kinds of fruits in the outside world. If you study them, you will definitely be able to put your current skills into practice.
