After flying for a while, I saw some greenery ahead, and an oasis appeared.
Then a small tribe appeared, but there were very few people. Gradually, more tribes appeared, and a town appeared. Everyone decided to rest here.
As soon as they landed, several children came running over. Some of them held water jugs in their hands, and some held watermelons on their heads. They surrounded Cang Lin and the others.
"Several guests have come from far away. You must be thirsty. Please drink some water."
"I have some watermelon here, it's sweet and refreshing, would you like to try some?"
It seemed that they were some business kids again. Cang Lin and the others politely refused, but more and more kids gathered around them and just squeezed in front of them and refused to leave.
If this continued, no one would be able to move forward, so Yuan Jun had no choice but to scare them loudly.
"If you don't leave, I'm going to turn into a monster and eat you!"
I thought the children would question it for a while, but unexpectedly, they were all scared away after hearing it.
Just when Yuan Jun was proudly showing off his achievements, a group of adults came running from a distance, and this time it was the adults' turn to surround them.
"Who said he would turn into a monster and eat us?"
Yuan Jun saw that this was not going to end, so he said: "It's me, what's wrong?"
The leader seemed to be a leader, with dark red skin, tall stature, chicken feathers stuck in his head, and a ferocious look on his face.
The people behind them were holding weapons and looked wary of them.
The leader waved to the back.
"take away"
After that, a group of people came over to take Yuan Jun away.
When Cang Lin and the others saw this, they took a few steps forward and stood in front of Yuan Jun.
"Big brother, is there any misunderstanding? We just arrived in Xilu and don't know anything. It's not appropriate for you to come and arrest us."
The leader was very surprised.
"You just arrived?"
"Yes, you can ask those kids. As soon as we landed, they surrounded us."
After saying that, Cang Lin pointed to the sand not far away.
"Our mount's footprints are still there. If you don't believe me, you can go and take a look."
The leader nodded his head and sent his men to take a look. There were indeed new footprints of monsters.
The subordinates came back and reported the truth, and everyone in Hongying Volcano lifted one foot to show them.
After landing his foot, he winked at the Demon-Winged Bat, and the Demon-Winged Bat also raised one foot.
After watching it, the leader relaxed his guard a little.
"To be honest, everyone, a man-eating monster has appeared in our town recently. As of today, five people have been eaten, so we can't let go of any clues."
After listening to the leader's explanation, everyone suddenly understood and became curious about the matter.
"Big brother, could it be that some powerful monster broke into the town and ate people?"
The leader shook his head.
"No, it's just a monster. It can transform into a beautiful woman, a child, a pet, or even a close relative. It can transform into anything, but it always ends up eating people."
Such a powerful monster is unheard of. Does it really exist?
"You guys are here in the West Continent for the crystal business, right? We have a lot of magic crystals here, but there are regulations in the Warcraft Continent that prohibit taking any magic crystals out, so it's useless to come here."
There are many crystal mines in the Western Land, and there are magic crystals of all grades. However, in order to maintain market balance, the magic crystals here are not allowed to be taken away.
"But we have magic crystals ourselves. Do we have to leave them behind when we leave?"
"That's not necessary. The magic crystals here are all restricted. As long as you step out of the border of the Western Continent, they will automatically fall, but yours will not..."
After hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Cang Lin looked at several people and saw that their lips were chapped, as if they had not drunk water for a long time. Now they had talked so much, their mouths must be even drier, so he took out a few leaves.
"This is our first meeting, and I don't have anything nice to give you guys, so I'll just ask you guys to have a drink of water."
After saying that, he distributed the leaves of the flowering tree to several older brothers one by one.
The elder brothers' eyes widened, and the leader even asked excitedly, "Are you from the South Continent?"
Cang Lin didn't know how to answer, so in order to avoid the trouble of explaining, he had to say: "Yes, we just came from Nanlu."
The leader immediately smiled, a stark contrast to his previous serious expression.
"I guessed it from these leaves. No wonder I felt so close to you when I saw you."
Everyone rolled their eyes in their hearts. These words did not match his image at all. They still preferred his proud and domineering look.
"Brother, since we have been fortunate enough to meet, I would like to ask where the Tower of Babel is located."
"The Tower of Babel?"
The eldest brother hesitated for a moment and said, "The Tower of Babel is deep in the Gobi Desert. You won't find it without someone to lead you there. But even if you do, no one will follow you because it's a rather strange place."
Cang Lin quickly took out a few more petals and said to the elder brother: "We have come from afar just to see this sacred object. We will not be satisfied until we die."
The leader slowly picked up the flower leaf and called out a name without turning his head.
"Ding Zhen, I leave it to you."
A young man named Ding Zhen quickly stepped out of the team and stood in front of them.
"Hello everyone, I'm Ding Zhen. If you need any help, please come to me. It's not appropriate for everyone to stand here, so please come to my house for a small gathering. I will tell you what you want to know."
Seeing that Ding Zhen handled the situation well, the leader stopped caring and led the others to continue looking for monsters.
Cang Lin and the others just went along with it and followed Ding Zhen to his house.
This is an earthen kiln. I don’t know what material it is made of, but it looks very windproof.
As soon as I entered the room, I saw an old lady sitting in the room, sewing something.
As soon as Ding Zhen came in, he ran to the old lady.
"Grandma, we have a guest today. He is from Nanlu and gave me a flower leaf."
The old lady seemed very happy too.
"Why are you accepting such an expensive gift from your guests? Hurry up and get some water from the pitcher and give it to the guests."
Seeing the enthusiasm of the grandparents and grandchildren, Cang Lin and the others felt very uncomfortable.
Ding Zhen took out a few bowls and poured a little water into each bowl. Before he could pour enough water, the water in the pitcher was gone.
"What's wrong? Is there no water?"
Ding Zhen lowered his head in shame.
"It's okay grandma, I'll go get some later in the queue."
"No"
We only had so much water, but as soon as they came, they took up all the water. I just felt bad about it.
So Cang Lin took out his water-attribute storage ring. Fortunately, he had stored enough water in it when he was in Beilu.
Water flowed out of the ring and soon filled a large jar. Then he put water in whatever container he saw. All the bottles and jars in Ding Zhen's house were filled with water.
Ding Zhen watched all this in shock, and suddenly, as if he understood something, he knelt on the ground.
His grandmother also knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Cang Lin without saying a word.
