Chapter 4707 The Little Girl in the Oasis
Like a bursting bubble, the scene in front of me collapsed and dissipated, and the traces left by the Wood Spirit Pearl completely disappeared.
A smile appeared on Tang Zhen's face, and he couldn't restrain his joy. He stood up and gave orders to go out.
He wants to leave the city and find it himself.
For this period of time, Tang Zhen has been staying in Loucheng and has no plans to go out.
The entire lower realm has been conquered, just like your own back garden, and there is no freshness in exploring it.
Not to mention that some time ago, Tang Zhen had already traveled all over the lower realms by taking the opportunity to search for the spirit beads.
When he came back, he was still thinking that it would be difficult to go to the outside world again if it was not necessary.
After discovering the clues to the Mu Lingzhu, Tang Zhen had to go out. This was a huge matter and there must be no delay.
In a short period of time, the travel team was ready and soon left Loucheng.
Although Tang Zhen's strength is enough to run rampant in the lower world, he must pay attention to his travels to avoid unexpected situations.
Tang Zhen's power is limited to the lower realm. If he were placed in the true spirit realm, there would be many beings stronger than him.
If for some reason, the other party forcibly enters the lower realm to launch an attack, the consequences will be unimaginable.
As the master of Loucheng, the residents did not allow Tang Zhen to be harmed, even if it was in exchange for his own life.
The giant ship was traveling at a constant speed, with a huge space inside. Tang Zhen and his entourage gathered in the command hall.
Tang Zhen is here, comparing the places in his memory.
After previous exploration, the map of the lower realm has been drawn. Although it cannot be 100% accurate, it can basically meet the needs.
However, the changes in the ocean are becoming more and more dramatic, and it is shrinking crazily.
It won’t be long before the once vast ocean may turn into small lakes.
If necessary, new surveying and mapping must be carried out.
The picture in the memory shows that Mu Lingzhu is in an oasis, surrounded by an endless desert.
According to the picture comparison, it should not be difficult to find the Wood Spirit Pearl.
Through the equipment on the battleship, Tang Zhen extracted the scenes in his memory, and then compared them through the equipment.
The places that match the lower bound are quickly extracted and analyzed in every detail.
Although the clues have been obtained, it does not mean that it is the final answer. There is even a possibility that this is the misty illusion deliberately released by Mu Lingzhu.
Don't underestimate the Five Elements Spirit Pearls, they are also wise and know how to protect themselves.
"City Lord, the comparison is complete."
A subordinate prompted Tang Zhen, and then a picture popped up, and an oasis in the desert appeared in front of him.
Tang Zhen glanced at it, but frowned slightly.
The oasis in front of us is different from the picture obtained. It has obviously been severely damaged.
The place that was once lined with trees has now turned into a desert, with only one percent of the forest area remaining.
Many dead trees stand silently in the yellow sand, their mottled bark silently telling the vicissitudes of life.
The once turbulent sea and lake has now become a small bend, looking unusually turbid and bitter.
The carpet-like green lawn is now exposed to large areas of yellow sand, and I am afraid it will die out soon.
The houses on the grass are now dilapidated, and the original residents no longer exist.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Tang Zhen not only had some doubts about whether this place was really the hiding place of the Wood Lingzhu.
Such doubts arise naturally because the environment is too harsh.
The Wood Spirit Pearl is the essence of the wood system. It can affect the vegetation of the entire world and possesses quite powerful power.
If something goes wrong with the Wood Spirit Pearl, everything related to vegetation will be extremely seriously affected.
Grass animals will have no food, plants will not produce seeds, and the original food chain will completely collapse.
The wave of death sweeps crazily, swallowing countless creatures, and the world will completely turn into a desert. With such a powerful power, the environment must be extremely demanding. According to Tang Zhen's guess, the place where the Wood Spirit Pearl is hidden must be like a fairyland on earth.
But the situation in front of me is completely different from what I imagined. It can even be said to be two extremes.
No wonder Tang Zhen felt that this was an illusion created by the Wood Lingzhu.
But after thinking about it, I felt that this kind of deception was meaningless. Apart from wasting some time, Tang Zhen would not suffer much loss himself.
Moreover, such behavior will also increase the risk of exposure, which is indeed very inappropriate.
With a trace of doubt, Tang Zhen went straight to the target location.
The battleship he was riding on had an extremely fast flying speed, and it would not take long even to the ends of the world.
Two hours later, the huge battleship was like a dark cloud, hovering over the desert.
The shadow brings a rare coolness, allowing the creatures in the desert to breathe, and they all look up to look at the giant monster in the sky.
Tang Zhen fell from the sky and landed in the oasis.
He saw that there was actually someone living in the oasis, a young girl.
She squatted next to the lake, struggling to carry the water. Compared to her petite body, the bucket was indeed a bit too big.
During the process of fetching water, no one helped her at all. She was always busy on her own.
Tang Zhen's mind swept across the oasis and found no other people's breath. Apparently this girl was the only resident.
The girl carried a bucket of water to a piece of land and poured water carefully.
There are vegetable seedlings growing on the ground, looking wilted under the scorching sun.
The girl built a shed again and covered it with withered grass to shade the vegetable seedlings to prevent them from being burned to death by the sun.
The small and thin figure kept busy like this, his dirty face covered with sweat marks.
Tang Zhen stood behind him, silently looking at the little girl with a thoughtful expression.
The busy girl accidentally saw Tang Zhen standing behind her. She was startled at first, and then showed a happy expression.
Put down the items in your hands, tentatively approached Tang Zhen, and then bowed awkwardly.
"Guests from afar, welcome to Green Water Lake.
We can provide drinking water, food, and sweet pasture.
Have a good rest, and then You can continue on your way.”
The little girl's words must have been learned from adults. Because she didn't practice them deliberately, she stumbled when she said them.
But her posture and expression looked very serious, as if she was trying hard to play her role well.
Seeing the little girl's appearance, Tang Zhen understood the purpose of this oasis. It was clearly a resting place for desert travelers.
After a long journey, they received supplies in the oasis, and after resting, they would embark on the journey again.
But looking at the surrounding scene, the Shahai Business Road has long since disappeared, and no one has been there for a long time.
Tang Zhen didn't know the specific reason, but looking at the withered oasis, he knew that this was probably the biggest reason.
For desert travelers, the existence of oasis is extremely important and can be said to be the greatest guarantee of life.
When the oasis loses its original function, it is natural for travelers to change their route.
“Why are you the only one in this oasis?”
Hearing Tang Zhen’s question, the little girl timidly said: “My uncles and aunts have all gone, to places far away. , took my brothers and sisters away, no one would play with me anymore
Not long ago, my father and mother carried a lot of things and said they were going to a caravan to exchange some things from them.
The day they left, a strong wind blew in the desert, and then they never came back..."
There was a hint of sadness in the little girl's tone, maybe she already knew the truth.
It is cruel to be forced to grow up at a young age
