broken destiny

Chapter 14 Treasure Hunting in the Desert

After dividing the spoils, the two people immediately went to ask Mayor Lai to provide proof of the completion of the task. They declined the mayor's kind invitation and left Hongshi Town.

"Where are you going to play?" Wang Xingli couldn't help but ask as he followed Myolie Wu for a long time, which was much faster than when he went to Hongshi Town before.

"Follow me and walk quickly, there's so much to talk about."

Myolie Wu looked like she was in a hurry and didn't want to say more.

Seeing this, Wang Xingli suddenly stopped and refused to leave. "If you say that, I won't leave. After all, your grandpa watched us come out. I will be responsible for what happens to you. You have to tell me your purpose. After all, we are also together."

Myolie Wu stopped and turned around to answer Wang Xingli. "Let's go to the nearest desert."

"No, please tell me clearly, why are you going to the desert? Is it dangerous?"

"It's not dangerous, go find the quicksand stalker." Myolie Wu knew whether Wang Xingli would leave or not, so she could only explain.

"Who is Quicksand Terrier and why are you looking for him?"

"... Quicksand stalk is a kind of fire-attribute spiritual grass. I found it for my grandpa to use. You can go now."

Myolie Wu said helplessly.

"Let's go, I didn't expect you to be quite filial. Tell me what kind it is, so I can help you find it."

"Quicksand stem is a third-level fire attribute spiritual grass. It has a healing effect on the consciousness of people with fire attribute spiritual power. It can usually be seen in the quicksand of the desert, just like grass stems." Wang Xingli was about to stop again. , Myolie Wu said immediately.

"Although it is a third-level spiritual grass, there are very few monsters guarding it. One is because its location is uncertain, and the other is because its spiritual power is not high. It is only because it is difficult to cultivate artificially and is relatively rare that it is rated a little higher. According to In terms of mission level, it’s just a D-level mission, and the rewards will be a little more.”

"If there is a monster, what level is it?" Wang Xingli asked as he walked.

"Judging from past records, they are basically quicksand lizards and red-tailed crows, which can be dealt with by a few ordinary people."

……

Chatting all the way, the two kept using Yuanli to perform movements, and this time the distance was obviously far away.

On the edge of the desert, apart from the blue moon and stars, there were only two people meditating and a pile of flames.

"You should rest first, I'll take care of it." Wang Xingli said to Myolie next to her.

"Well, you should also take a look at this map. The curve above is an area where there is often quicksand. You can see which way is better."

Myolie Wu was not pretentious, she handed Wang Xingli a map and then narrowed her eyes, not affected by the environment at all.

Wang Xingli spread out a one-meter-square map and roughly saw the location. Then he looked at the four curved positions that were not close to each other and began to calculate the route.

After a night of silence, the two of them took turns to rest. When the sun rose, the two of them set out on the road according to the planned route.

I didn't encounter any wild animals along the way. I occasionally encountered a few scorpions, and the others were just some common desert plants. As we go further in, there are more sand dunes and the air starts to get drier.

Wang Xingli recalled the route as he hurried on. Feeling that he was almost there, he began to look back at his footprints frequently. It didn't take long before he found that the previous footprints began to disappear.

"We've arrived at the quicksand area." Wang Xingli greeted Myolie.

"Really? Let me look at the map."

"No need to look, just look at our footprints and see if they are slowly disappearing. If you stand still here, your feet will sink deeper and deeper."

"As expected, it seems that I brought you out correctly. Let's look for it separately, usually at a lower position." Myolie Wu looked back at the previous footprints and said.

"Okay, be careful not to fall in." Wang Xingli said with concern.

"Don't worry, my physical skills are no worse than yours."

After that, the two of them started searching separately. After searching in this large area for a long time, they found nothing, not even a grass hair. After searching to no avail, the two of them immediately decided to go to the next quicksand area.

After searching like this for more than a day, the two of them had completed the exploration of three quicksand areas and only obtained five second-level earth-attribute spiritual grass hibiscus flowers. During this period, they also encountered several groups of passers-by walking through the desert. (Huang Jinhua: Promotes the effect of turning earth attributes into spiritual energy.)

Soon the two arrived at the last area, and Myolie Wu's mood changed from the high spirits at the beginning to the listless mood now. Wang Xingli had no good idea, so he could only search as hard as he could. After searching for a long time, he couldn't find it. In the end, a miracle happened. Didn't show up either.

The two could only start returning to the sect, and there was not enough time left for them to find other new quicksand areas.

Just as they were walking out of the desert, a man and a woman appeared in front of them waving to them. There was a tent set up next to them. When they walked in, they saw a blanket spread on the ground, and on it was a quicksand stalk.

"Do you have earth-attribute spiritual grass? We can exchange or buy it." One of the women said.

Only then did Myolie Wu notice the quicksand stem and spoke hurriedly. "You guys...do you have a tasseled astragalus?" (Tasseled astragalus: enhances the power of earth attribute to condense the element.)

Wang Xingli hurriedly pulled Myolie behind her back, and Myolie quickly changed her words when she reacted.

"I'm sorry, we need it too, so we can't trade with you." The woman was a little disappointed when she heard that.

"But we found five hibiscus plants, but unfortunately we can't use them at the moment. Can we exchange a few of them?"

Wang Xingli asked while taking out the hibiscus flowers.

Hearing this, the woman was surprised at first and then seemed a little embarrassed. The man on the side also came over, looked at the Huang Jinhua in Wang Xingli's hand and said.

"Fellow Taoist, we are disciples of the Condensation Realm of the Guiyuan Sect. This is our sect's mission. Unfortunately, we cannot exchange with you. I think your clothes should be disciples of the Ice and Snow Sect. I have a few silver millet flowers here. , I can exchange it with you, or we can buy these Hibiscus flowers at a high price, what do you think?" (Silver millet flower: a second-level spiritual grass of the water system, which has the effect of transforming energy into spiritual energy.)

"You also know that we are disciples of the Bingxue Sect. We are not in short supply of these silver millet flowers. I think this quicksand stem is somewhat valuable." Myolie Wu couldn't help but say, knowing that Wang Xingli's knowledge was insufficient.

The man frowned and thought for a while, and the woman quickly walked up to him and whispered a few words in a low voice.

Even though Wang Xingli had good hearing, he couldn't hear what they said.

The man pondered for a moment.

"Fellow Taoist, it would be okay if all five of your hibiscus plants were of good quality, but you see that only two of them are of good quality. We would have suffered a bit of a loss."

Wang Xingli stopped Myolie Wu who was about to speak, and made a gesture to leave.

"If you don't change it, forget it. It's not easy for me to deal with anyway."

"Wait, let's change." The woman couldn't hold herself back.

……

Myolie Wu finally got the quicksand stalk, and her eyes turned into crescent moons again.

Wang Xingli also breathed a sigh of relief. The depression of the past few days was gone, and he could return to the sect happily.
