The long fairy road is wonderful

Chapter 997
In the conventional impression, giants are evil existences, comparable to dragons that are equivalent to natural disasters.

This group of extremely tall guys may steal farmers' livestock, pose a threat to business routes, and even break into cities and capture princesses and ask for ransom.

In fact, it's not bad. Most giants are really not fun. The giants mentioned above have done it.

Take the giants called cloud giants in front of them as an example, not all of them are good people, and there are precedents among them who lead other giant settlements to attack mortal society.

However, the cloud giants who live in the verdant wilderness do belong to the group of good people, because if they were evil, they would have been killed by the local creatures long ago.

These cloud giants are not native creatures of the emerald green field, and naturally they are certainly not some kind of alien creatures, they are outsiders.

To trace this history, it must be traced back to before the ancient elves made their fortunes. These cloud giants came to the green field by coincidence in order to avoid the evil of the same kind, and then gradually accepted them in the slow contact with the local creatures. them.

Because time is too long, affected by the plane and the environment, these cloud giants living in the emerald green field are indeed good people. When they saw Lin Tianci, they did not show undisguised malice like those evil brothers. Warm and friendly.

——But brother Lin doesn't want this kind of enthusiasm.

With a single bend of the huge arm, Brother Lin blocked the space for dodging left and right, and by the time he wanted to retreat, it was already too late.

The cloud giant is more than 7 meters high, as high as a two-story building, and the action of hugging Brother Lin makes the latter feel almost like a dark cloud.

His body and bones are not comparable to those of a unicorn, and if he is hugged by a cloud giant, he may suffer a shattered fracture.

Fortunately, Giant Yun himself also knew that little brother Lin was too fragile. After all, he was small, so he didn't use much strength when hugging him. The problem was that little brother Lin, whose body odor was about to smell, was holding his breath...

After feeling the enthusiasm (and body odor) of the cloud giant, the cloud giant introduced himself as teaching Dewar, and happily led Lin Tianci and the unicorn Nero to the depths of the cave.

From the outside, it looks like a very large cave, nothing special, but when you actually go inside, you realize that there is actually a universe inside.

When he turned a corner, Lin Tianci saw a huge underground space as if the entire mountain had been hollowed out. The rock plates were layered and staggered like fungus or ganoderma growing on trees, spreading to the very end. under.

Seven or eight large water wheels that fit the figure of the cloud giant are also arranged in order according to the direction of the cave, and it looks like they can transport water from the deep underground to the top.

It's just that the waterwheels are all stopped now, and there is only a shallow layer of water stains left in the specially excavated canals, and there is no flowing water.

These layers of rock plates are connected by suspension bridges or stone slabs. The handwork is relatively rough, but they are very strong. After all, if they are not strong, they cannot bear the weight of the cloud giants. Residential life is built on the staggered rock plates, which is why the locals call it a thousand-layered mountain.

Dewar led the way, leading Lin Tianci and Nairo to go deeper along the stone slabs and suspension bridges connecting the rock plates, passing by a magic ball of white light from time to time.

That is the light technique fixed on the stone, providing the most basic lighting.

"You guys came quite quickly. Garland told me through magic communication that a human came to the Verdant Fields, but it helped me a lot."

The self-proclaimed king of the unicorn Garland is a very showy guy. Almost all the creatures in the green field have been notified that a human has come to the green field.

"Is there anything I can help you with?"

Brother Lin originally planned to ask about the fragments of the Jilanhui star directly after a few words of greeting. Hearing what Dewar said, he probably asked for something.

As Dewar walked, he pointed to the stopped waterwheel:
"A few days ago, for some reason, our water source suddenly stopped flowing. Although we can't see any impact for the time being, it will affect the water level of Yuanyan Lake not far away after a long time. This makes me and the people very troubled."

The sudden flow of water from the spring is likely to be due to the diversion of the underground water veins. This is not new, as long as a not strong earthquake may cause such consequences.

But having said that, if it is in the mortal world, running out of water is indeed a big deal. In the worst case, the whole family may need to be relocated, but in the emerald green field...

All creatures living here don't need to eat or drink, and it doesn't matter if there is water or not.

When Nero heard this, he said quickly:
"Yuanyan Lake is out of water? That can't be done! Didn't we agree to have a water fight next month? How can we play if there is no water?"

Well, it turned out that what bothered them was that there was no water to play.

"I'm also anxious. The clansmen are looking forward to going to the lake together. Everyone is not happy about the sudden change of plans."

Hearing this, Brother Lin said:
"If you ask me to help solve the problem of water sources... then I'm really sorry, I really don't understand this aspect."

If you are a monk who is good at water skills, such as Ran Qinglian, you can try to use magic to draw the underground water veins, or Ao San, a sea dragon, will have a better effect.

Little Brother Lin only knows how to use a water spirit spell that is too simple to do. Pulling underground water veins is too high-end for him. Maybe there is a way to call wind and rain.

If there is a shortage of water and hope for rain, Lin Tianci's help is not needed. The cloud giant is born with the magic-like ability to manipulate the weather, which is much more convenient than Lin Tianci's method of opening an altar to pray for rain.

Dewar, who was walking in front, waved his hands nonchalantly:
"Our spring is blocked, but the place where the spring is located is too narrow for us big men to get in. Ask the goblins to help you go in. They say that the spring has traces of magic, but they don't know magic so they can't let it go. The spring has returned to normal. Since you are a traveler in the plane, you should be able to deal with magic, right?"

There are also many fine creatures in the emerald green field, which are distant relatives of Saili, but these fine creatures are relatively weak.

As for the magic...

Brother Lin doesn't know much, but Sally definitely does.

"The spring we are using didn't exist before. It was opened by an outsider a long time ago. It has been used without any problems until now, until recently it suddenly stopped flowing."

Could it be that the outsiders from long ago were established by the ancient elves?

Lin Tianci asked casually, but Dewar said he didn't know.

After all, what he said was a long time ago, no matter how you look at it, it would take tens of thousands of years to calculate. The cloud giant can't live that long. This is already a very distant thing that has been passed down by word of mouth.

While talking, they walked onto a wooden platform about ten meters wide. Dewar saw that both Lin Tianci and Nero had stood firm. When he pulled the lever on the side, the whole platform moved slowly downward at a uniform speed, which should be convenient. Fast moving lifts.

Compared with walking down layer by layer, the vertically moving elevator is faster and more convenient. It didn't take long for Dewar to bring Lin Tianci to the bottom of the entire thousand-layered mountain.

It can be seen that there is a large pond here, but it is almost dry. There is a specially dug channel on one side of it to connect to the waterwheels in the distance. These waterwheels are the ones I saw when I first entered the cave. A large waterwheel, which transfers water from deep underground to above through layers of leverage.

There is also a channel on the other side of the cistern, which extends to the edge of the stone wall.

Dua waved his hand and used his natural spell-like ability to summon a ball of light for lighting, casting a slanting shadow on the side of the dark stone wall.

He pointed there and said:
"There's a small hole in the rock wall by the side of the ditch, yes, that's right there."

The small hole mentioned by Dewar is about 1.5 meters high. It is not only short but also very narrow, and it is impossible for a unicorn like Nero to squeeze in.

"Our water source is just behind there, can you ask Lin Tianci to go in and have a look?"

As he said that, Dewar also took out a woven bag that was about the size of a sack from his arms. He opened the bag, revealing a large pile of blue crystals inside, which was bulging and filled half the bag.

"I heard from Garland that you came here to find some sapphires. Neither I nor the rest of the tribe know what sapphires are. All the nearby blue stones are here."

The fragments of the extremely blue glowing star look like ordinary sapphires when they are not in contact with mana, at best they can be regarded as sapphires with higher purity.

The local cloud giants are amazing. They don't even know what sapphires are, so they simply collect all the blue-looking stones as exchange terms...

Of course, this half bag of gems cannot be all fragments of extremely blue glowing stars, and there are many pure sapphires, sapphires, and even blue rough stones mixed in.

These are useless to the cloud giants, and it is very laborious to collect stones the size of rice grains, after all, they are too small for them.

Regardless of whether there was one or not, Lin Tianci really couldn't refuse the request, especially when the seven-meter-tall man looked at him with pitiful eyes.

How much do these guys want to play in the water...

Due to the narrow entrance of the cave, the cloud giants couldn't get in, and even if they could get in, they didn't know magic. They heard that the water source was related to magic.

From their point of view, a guy like Lin Tianci who can travel between planes must be a very powerful mage. Naturally, he has a way to cultivate. They never thought that Brother Lin is actually a monk.

But you can ask Celie about magic. If it is really related to magic, she will definitely have a solution.

With this thought in mind, Lin Tianci lowered his head and tried to drill into the hole to have a look.

The hole was indeed very narrow, and Lin Tianci had to bend down and turn sideways to force his way in. If it was Song Yushu's muscular devil, it would be easier to just break the stone wall and go in.

After he got in, he found that the hole was not as dark as he had imagined. A layer of faint phosphorescent light shone in the direction of the hole entrance. A monk with such a low level of vision was enough to see things.

The cave was very narrow, but not too deep. It was only five or six meters away. He successfully passed through the cave and came to the other side of the stone wall.

The first thing that comes into view is a strange tree that looks like a banyan tree, but its leaves are all water blue. It grows on the edge of a circular pool that is impacted by the water flow, and its roots spread all the way to the almost dry pool.

What had just emitted phosphorescence was actually an oval-shaped fruit about the size of an apple that hung on the top of the tree in alternate colors of yellow and green.

And the most important thing is, this little brother Lin actually knows this kind of plant...
