"The people in Gul City are really awesome."
Lin Feng couldn't help but spit out a hometown dialect.
As for the reason.
Just look at the water pipelines in front of him that are as dense and intricate as a spider web.
Yes, that's right.
The so-called tunnel he was in leading to the base of the Eternal Oasis was actually the water storage irrigation system used by the city of Gul thousands of years ago.
When he heard Lilupal introduce the water storage irrigation system here, Lin Feng's first reaction was to be amazed.
The endless pipelines and huge underground ruins were built purely by manpower.
How big was the country in Gul back then?
Don't say anything else.
At least Lin Feng knew that if the people of Mondstadt were to build such a water pipeline that could supply half of the desert for reclamation and cultivation, the city of Gul would be wiped out and the project would not be completed.
But as the dredging work began, he started jumping around and cursing.
This place is too big.
There is no end in sight.
According to Lilupal, this is just one of the water supply stations.
There are two other huge water supply stations like this in Gul City.
And if you want to go to the Eternal Oasis.
Then all three water supply stations must be opened and all the sediment blocked in them must be drained out.
Lin Feng Youla is not afraid of tiredness, and Lilupal doesn't know what tiredness is now.
Even Kelai was in high spirits and didn't feel tired at all.
But the problem is not enough food.
His previous fears came true.
Although he had brought a lot of food with him when he left the Tanit tribe, the consumption along the way and the fact that they did not encounter an oasis with sufficient resources meant that by the time they reached this tunnel, the food And just a little bit of drinking water.
If you continue to go deeper.
Keleke is going to be hungry.
She can't be allowed to eat those monsters that are full of harmful elemental power.
So looking at the pipelines in front of him that couldn't be cleaned in ten or eight days, Lin Feng decided.
Let's go out and get some food to bring in first.
This opinion was unanimously agreed by Yula and Kelai.
Only when it comes to Lilupal.
There is a different voice.
"My lord, you don't need to worry too much. I can create a fertile oasis for you at any time if you need it."
Everyone's eyes were focused on Lilupal.
"Zhenling can transform barren sandy soil into fertile land. Don't you know this?"
Lilupal said matter-of-factly: "Even if a thousand years have passed, the legend of Zhenling in the desert will still be there, right?"
"Even if the sand is turned into land, there won't be anything to eat, right?"
Yura spoke helplessly.
People have been talking about Zhenling's miraculous power from the moment he stepped into the Tanit tribe.
Not to mention that when she went to explore the ruins of the temple in Gul City, Babel talked about it all the way, and her desire for the soul in her words was beyond words.
Moreover, when Lin Feng took inventory of food and drinking water, they had already thought of Lilupal's ability.
However, the reality is before us.
Even though Zhenling can transform the terrain, it cannot create food out of thin air.
"Simple. Although this place is covered by quicksand, there are areas where some tough shrubs and vegetation can still grow. I can make them sprout quickly and produce more branches and leaves. These are all edible. It's just that you need to endure some hardships. Food to eat.”
Lilupal spoke clearly.
Just like she said.
The remains of this underground water supply station may be due to the abundant water supply in the past. There are indeed some vegetation growing here that do not require sunlight.
Just very little.
Otherwise, the exploration team of the Tanit tribe would not starve to death here.
And after thinking about the food problem, Lin Feng tried to eat some shrub leaves. They were not poisonous, but they were very unpleasant to eat. They were bitter, astringent, and scratched the throat. It was really difficult to swallow.
Seeing that Lin Feng still had a troubled expression on his face, Lilupal added, "If you still find it difficult, my lord, then just do as you say. I have no objection."
That being said.
But even Kelai could see Lilupal's anxiety.
After all, they are not too deep into the water station now, and it won't take much time to prepare food and water even if they return to the ground.
But she was still willing to use up her little strength to create fertile soil, just in exchange for Lin Feng and the others to speed up their progress in a few days.
In fact, when Lilupal wanted to sign a contract when she saw him, Lin Feng guessed that she had something to ask for.
No one wants to accept anyone else as their master for no reason.
In particular, she was once a descendant of a god, the supreme being among the desert people.
Such a person is willing to serve Lin Feng as his master just because Lin Feng has the shadow of Almaz in him?
Who believes it!
Therefore, she was willing to surrender her identity and conclude a contract with Lin Feng, only for one thing, which was to find the eternal oasis and the burial place of the legendary mistress.
It just so happened that Lin Feng was also looking for Eternal Oasis.
It’s true that we hit it off immediately.
After thinking for a moment, Lin Feng decided to leave here first and go out to a nearby village to get some food.
Lilupal heard the decision and made no comment.
He just said lightly: "Everything is at your discretion, my lord."
The process of 'buying' food and water was very smooth.
It doesn’t even cost a penny.
Because Lin Feng directly killed all the Gilded Brigade who tried to rob them.
This group of unlucky guys came to your door.
They didn't know where they heard that a rich man brought people to the Grand Canyon of Dama Mountain. With the idea of robbing the big fat sheep, they led the people to squat at the entrance of the Grand Canyon.
When they saw Lilupal, this group of people immediately determined their target, rushed up with howling and screaming, and then turned into a pile of corpses lying on the ground.
The food and water they carried were also accepted by Lin Feng.
"Tsk, the Tanit tribe is really good at showing off their skills."
Lin Feng kept tossing a mola in his hand with a sarcastic look on his face.
Who spread the news.
He didn't even have to guess.
It’s definitely Asarige.
This bitch didn't dare to resist him, so he came up with such a destructive move.
With the idea that the dead Taoist friends will not die the poor Taoists, they spread their movements and attract people from the Gilded Brigade who only recognize money but not people to die. What if there are too many ants and the elephant is killed?
But he may not have expected that Lin Feng is not as simple as an elephant. No matter how many ants there are, they will be crushed to death with one foot.
"Hmph, that guy Asalig, you taught me too lightly."
Yula also heard what the gilded troupe said and immediately started speaking angrily.
She and Lin Feng had the same idea.
It was immediately confirmed that Asarigue had done this.
"That's all he has. He's not like Babel. He dared to mobilize the strength of the entire tribe to kill me. He's not even afraid of offending Dolly."
Lin Feng also commented smoothly.
"It is indeed much different from that Mistress Babel."
Youla shook her head, glanced around and said with a smile: "But that's fine, they are all dishes delivered to your door."
I have been with Lin Feng for a long time.
Unknowingly, her words were somewhat tainted with Lin Feng's words.
"Stupid desert slaves have always been like this. Their hearts are as high as the sky and their lives are as low as an insect."
Lilupal's malice toward the desert people was still as bad as ever, and his mouth was still as poisonous.
"Speaking of which, Lilupal, I'm curious about something."
Lin Feng chewed the dried meat he collected from the Gilded Brigade, and after swallowing it, he asked: "Who is the Apep you mentioned before? Is he also a desert god who has an alliance with the Flower God?"
There are stories to listen to again.
Yula and Kelai both put down the food in their hands, raised their ears and listened carefully.
But to their disappointment.
Lilupal just said a few words briefly.
"Apepp is the great dragon of grass."
"Apepp is an ally of Akhmar's master."
"I'm sorry, my lord, my memory is too fragmented and I can't recall many stories about her."
Yola and Kelai shook their heads in disappointment.
I originally thought that I could get some long-form love-hate stories like those in Gul City.
The result is these two sentences.
Only Lin Feng sat there thoughtfully, even forgetting to eat the dried meat in his hand.
Grass Dragon?
dragon?
In the past, Lin Feng might not have cared about this name.
After all, Mondstadt's Tevalin is the Dragon of Wind, and Liyue's Dragon King Ruotu is the Dragon of Rock.
As for Inazuma's dragon.
never seen it.
I have seen a lot of dragon lizards.
No one has ever mentioned the fact that Rice Wife has a dragon.
The two dragons are known to have different strengths. Tevalin is at the level of an ordinary demon god, and Dragon King Ruotu is at the level of the Seven Earthly Rulers.
I just don’t know what kind of strength this Apep is.
However, being able to form an alliance with the Red King, who is known as the strongest god in the desert, this Apep might also be a Dragon King with similar strength as Ruo Tuo.
besides.
Lin Feng is still concerned about one thing.
That is Yuan Xia Gong's "Before the Sun and the Moon".
That is what Ying warned herself not to think about.
If Lin Feng remembers correctly.
The opening chapter of Before the Sun and Moon involves the battle between the original man and the seven ancient dragon kings.
At the same time, it was also mentioned that the aborigines of the Teyvat continent were dragons, not humans.
The dragons still living in the world today, including the deep sea dragon lizards, can all be said to be descendants of those seven ancient dragon kings.
Think of this.
Lin Feng suddenly remembered where he had seen the name Apep.
"Ode to Akhmar".
Basically every Gilded Brigade that believes in the Red King will have such a book.
The first time he read this book was in Aru Village.
There is such a sentence in it.
Akhmar's body gradually decayed on the throne and was eaten by giant insects.
And that monster dared to devour the body of the god.
Its name is Apep.
Apep the giant insect?
Apep, Dragon of Grass?
Apep's descendants are sandworms?
After connecting various clues, Lin Feng suddenly seemed to have touched a fact.
Apep, the Dragon of Grass, once devoured his ally, the Red King Ahmar.
"hiss--"
This is another sensational thing.
What did the Red King do?
The three gods formed an alliance and prospered Sumeru, which attracted forbidden knowledge, caused the demon scale disease to become rampant, and defrauded their ally, the Great Mercy Tree King.
In the end, he atones for his sins with his own body and helps King Daci Shu clean up the pollution of forbidden knowledge.
This is a god whose faults are obviously greater than his merits.
The endless crimes he committed paved the way for the near death of the Great Ci Tree King during the Black Disaster, and also caused the people of the desert to live in dire straits.
There is another very important thing.
That is, he carried the forbidden knowledge with him back then.
Lin Feng knew very well what forbidden knowledge was.
Isn't that the power of the abyss?
That is to say.
The Red King relied on his own powerful power to forcibly seal the power of the abyss in his body. Xumi's subsequent disasters were precisely because these powers of the abyss were too powerful and he could no longer suppress them. disaster.
in other words.
The body of the Red King is an extremely large container that stores the power of the abyss.
How dare Apep, the Dragon of Grass, eat such a corpse?
"What a man."
Lin Feng couldn't help but give a thumbs up in his heart to this god who had never been masked before.
This is the power of the abyss that has harmed the entire desert.
When I was in Mondstadt.
Tevalin was only eroded by a small piece of the black blood of the abyss, and he was so painful that he went crazy and attacked randomly without even recognizing his relatives.
This grass dragon has eaten so much abyss power.
And it's not cold yet, really.
etc!
Apep is not dead yet! ?
The more Lin Feng thought about it, the more terrifying he felt.
The reason why he felt that Apep was not dead yet was because after the death of the Red King, the forbidden knowledge in the desert was completely purified by the Great Ci Tree King.
If Apep dies, King Daci Shu will not be able to clear out the forbidden knowledge that King Red brought to him even if he died ten times.
A dragon that has eaten a huge amount of the power of the abyss and is still alive!
What kind of strength is this?
I'm afraid that the seven gods in the entire continent combined are not enough for her to defeat one dragon.
"Ancient Seven Dragon Kings"
Lin Feng came to a spine-chilling conclusion.
This is Apep, the Dragon of Grass.
Not good.
Maybe she is the Grass Dragon King, one of the seven ancient dragon kings.
Not a young dragon like Tevalin who was only a few hundred years old, nor a dragon king like Ruotuo who rose up later.
But it is a genuine ancient dragon king who has lived for tens of thousands of years.
"."
Lin Feng referred to the poetry and legends in the desert, the book records of the Holy Order, and Lilupal's words, combined them and calculated it several times.
Finally arrived at the possible facts.
First, Apep is the Grass Dragon King, the ancient dragon king, a powerful man of the Tianli level who can shake even Sumeru when he turns over.
Second, Apep is a dependent of the Red King. He ate the Red King's body in order to cooperate with the Great Merciful Tree King to protect Xumi, and he is currently hiding somewhere and enduring the erosion of the power of the abyss.
The second conjecture seems easier to accept.
But judging from Tevarin's performance.
Lin Feng didn't believe that a descendant of a god could withstand so much power from the abyss without going crazy.
The power of the abyss that swept over Inazuma back then, the Fox Sai Palace, which was also a descendant of the gods, just hosted a divine cherry blossom ceremony and disappeared.
Now Inazuma's sacred cherry tree is dying again.
However, the Eight-Level God Son is not afraid to touch the power of the God of Thunder. He is afraid that he will be as good as Hu Zhai Palace and die.
so.
There is only one possibility.
Lin Feng's eyes widened and he determined one thing.
Apep, the Dragon of Grass, is very likely to be the Grass Dragon King, one of the Seven Dragon Kings in ancient times.
