Chapter 191 Chicken Stewed with Mushrooms
Maybe... this is what they call karma?
Previously, Zhou Ling could not understand Erniu’s resistance when he was unwilling to accept the name.
But now, she seemed to understand.
She didn't want to enter the quagmire. Really, her whole body, from her hair to her toenails, showed resistance!
Psychological discomfort is a huge hurdle and the hardest to overcome.
But when he turned around and looked around, he saw the expectant eyes of Da Niu and Er Niu, and the worried look of his mother.
Zhou Ling gritted his teeth and decided to give it a try.
"Come on! Go into the mud, huh? I can do it, but there's a prerequisite. You two have to lead the way!"
"We were supposed to lead the way, but if we don't, do you know where we're going?"
Erniu would argue with her whenever he got the chance.
Zhou Ling was too lazy to pay attention to it and was about to burrow into the mud. Of course, she wanted to try first to set up a small, close-fitting isolation formation on herself to see if it was feasible.
If it is feasible, the isolation formation can protect her entire body and keep her away from the contamination of mud, then diving into the mud will not be so difficult to accept.
"How about putting a wooden shield on you?"
Zhou Li watched his daughter trying to do all kinds of things to him, and he wanted to help.
"Mom, can the wooden shield be a complete piece of wood, protecting me inside without any gaps?"
When Zhou Ling heard this, she thought that if it was really as she thought, the wooden shield method might be feasible.
"No." Zhou Li shook his head decisively.
I don't know what this silly daughter is thinking. It takes such exquisite craftsmanship to make a small wooden shield out of a complete piece of wood, and protect people inside without leaving any gaps.
What’s the difference between this and carving a wooden eggshell out of thin air?
Oh, wait, maybe what my daughter wants is the effect of wooden eggshell.
"Then I'll try this isolation formation."
Zhou Ling was not too disappointed. Before asking the question, she could imagine how difficult this request was. This result was what she expected.
"Then...give me one too."
Before her daughter reminded her, Zhou Li originally wanted to use the wooden shield technique to trap herself. After all, her daughter and Da Niu and Er Niu were going down, so she couldn't just wait for them to come back up there by herself. Of course, she had to go down further to take a look.
But how to get through this mud is a problem. If my daughter's method works, then of course I should use it.
After all, Daniel said that the light green mist in the air is poisonous and can also imprison the spiritual power in the body.
Even the fog is poisonous, not to mention the mud. When diving through the mud, most of the spiritual power will be restricted.
It is a forbidden area, hence the name.
If a cultivator loses his spiritual power, he is not much different from an ordinary mortal. Without spiritual power in this swamp, getting out is as difficult as climbing to heaven.
These dry bones that can be seen everywhere are enough to make people imagine how many people have been swallowed by these pieces of quagmire.
It would be difficult to dive into the quagmire without spiritual power to support and isolate the poisonous mud. The formation made by my daughter on her body consumes spiritual stones as energy. As long as the spiritual stones are filled in, the formation can be activated. At that time, whether her own spiritual power is restricted or not will not affect the operation of the formation. In this way, it is not difficult to pass through the quagmire safely.
It turns out that when it comes to self-study, and when it comes to the application of these seemingly complex formations and logical analysis, my daughter is a genius among geniuses!
The isolation formation on Zhou Li's body has also been set up. After a brief test, it runs smoothly and does not hinder movement. It is very easy to use!
"Let's go! Quagmire!"
As if to cheer himself up, or as if to leave no way out for himself, before leaving, Zhou Ling shouted loudly at the top of his voice.
The so-called forbidden area has only this advantage. Except for the people who fell in at the beginning when the secret realm was opened, they had no choice but to go through this journey. The rest of the people, even if they came to this area and only checked the general situation at the edge, probably would not take the initiative to come in and seek death.
Therefore, at this time, there were only them and two small animals in the vast area.
I shouted in pain at the top of my lungs, not afraid of being heard by others.
After cheering, Zhou Ling didn't waste any words. He raised his foot and jumped high, then jumped into the mud in the direction led by the two little animals.
Zhou Li followed closely behind, always paying attention to the surrounding situation to make sure his daughter was standing in the middle, the safest position.
Nothing can be seen in the dark mud, and even with an isolation formation, it is impossible to resist the poisonous gas coming from the mire.
Just as Daniu had said beforehand, the poisonous gas invaded their lungs. Even though they all breathed in, they were inevitably contaminated by the poisonous gas and their spiritual powers were sealed.
But fortunately, the isolation formation did not fail. With the spiritual stones as energy support, the formation ran smoothly, isolating all the sludge and not getting any of it on his body.
At the beginning, Zhou Ling was still alert to the surrounding environment at all times. After all, even though she had lost her spiritual power, she still had her mental power and could explore far away.
But time passed by minute by minute, like a quagmire that would never bottom out, and it completely exhausted Zhou Ling's patience.
At first, she was still counting the time to calculate how many minutes it had passed, but later she took out a small hourglass from her ordinary storage bag to time it, as she was too lazy to count.
She didn't know beforehand that the way down through the mud was so long! Even if it wasn't half an hour, it must have been more than half an hour. After nearly an hour of soaking in this mud, if she didn't collapse, who would?
Wasn’t it said that as long as we walk this road, there will be another world below?
Zhou Ling even doubted whether this road would ever be finished!
How could the two little animals leading the way in front not know about their little master's violent temper?
Although it is a one-sided master-servant contract, the minds are connected.
"Xiao Ling'er, young man, you still need to be more patient."
Erniu is a talkative person who can never control his mouth and says whatever he thinks.
But when its voice rang in Zhou Ling's mind, for some reason, Zhou Ling's mind was filled with the aroma of chicken stewed with mushrooms.
"I may not be patient when soaking in the mud, but I am quite patient when standing in front of the fire and slowly simmering the chicken soup. Erniu, do you want to see my patience someday?"
Erniu, who was leading the way in front, suddenly shivered in the mud.
He is just quick-witted, not stupid, so how could he not understand what his young master meant?
threaten! The threat of Chi Guoguo!
But it doesn't matter, as long as it pretends not to hear it, the threat does not exist.
The second bull in front fell silent, and Zhou Ling felt much more relieved.
But the next second, the relaxation and comfort disappeared.
Because she was originally sinking as a whole, she suddenly felt that starting from her toes, the pressure from the mud gradually disappeared!
Is this... the end of the dive? Has it reached the other world the two little ones mentioned?
