After this incident, everyone rested for a while before continuing on their journey. Ye Kong did not reveal his identity. He was not afraid that Zhang Yonghui and the rest would discover anything, but he wanted to sneak into Mai Valley. The more people did not take him seriously, the more opportunities he would have to sneak in.
As they continued forward, they began to enter the real Red Lotus Evil Lands. On both sides of the path, there were already faint formations and restrictions appearing. These formations and restrictions were all planted by the people of Mai Valley in the herb garden, where all sorts of herbs were grown.
However, the most common and valuable herb was the Forbidden Red Lotus.
There were many Forbidden Red Lotuses, but not many of them could bear fruit. Hence, they were very valuable. For example, if ten thousand Forbidden Red Lotuses were planted, it would be considered very lucky if one of them could flower. However, after they bloomed, most of them would not bear fruit!
Only after they bloomed and bore fruit would they be able to grow the Forbidden Red Lotus with an extra life.
Furthermore, even after they bore fruit, two-thirds of them would be defective! These defective products could only be used to refine pills, and did not have the effect of increasing a person's chances of survival!
From this, it could be seen how precious the Forbidden Red Lotus fruit was.
It was precisely because the Forbidden Red Lotus was too difficult to grow. Often, they would only grow one season every hundred years, but there would be no harvest. Hence, the hemp-robed elders would plant some other herbs.
Even if the Forbidden Red Lotus did not bear fruit, the other herbs could be taken out to sell for money. Fortunately, the soil in the Red Lotus Evil Lands was extremely fertile. Whatever was planted would grow very well.
As they walked forward through the gaps in the distance, they would occasionally encounter hemp-robed elders from Mai Valley. The cultivation of these elders were all above a hundred thousand dimensions, which was very shocking.
One had to know that these elders walking outside were the lowest rungs of Mai Valley. They were like commoners in a city. Yet the commoners here had already reached a hundred thousand dimensions, which meant that their cultivation level was rather high.
As they walked forward, a Mai Valley elder walked up and asked, "May I ask if Miss is here to request for pills?"
Zhang Yonghui hurriedly replied, "Yes."
The Mai Valley elder said, "Let me see what pills are you requesting for first."
Zhang Yonghui showed him her son. This Mai Valley was divided into outer, middle and inner valleys. This old man was the person in charge of the outer valley. Usually, when people came to ask for pills, they would let him take a look first. If he has the corresponding elixir here, then you can directly pay him, and he will give you the elixir. Everyone will hit it off. However, the Mai Yi Valley elder looked at the child and said, "This child has been drugged by someone, his cultivation base is suppressed. I don't know anything about this drug. Continue walking, let my senior brothers take a look."
"It must be Chou Qiang's doing!" Zhang Yonghui cursed inwardly and bowed to the Ma Yi Valley elder. "Thank you, Senior."
The old man said, "Wait a minute." With that said, he raised his hand and released a small boat, saying, "Ma Yi Valley is in this Red Lotus Evil Lands. The evil lands are naturally quite dangerous. It's impossible for you to pass through the evil lands in front. This thing can help you, but it can't be said to be completely safe. Anything can happen inside, and it's very possible that the boat will capsize and the people will die. So, think carefully. "
After the elder finished speaking, he left. Zhang Yonghui said, "Guards, there is no need for you to take the risk. You don't have to follow us. You can rest here and wait for us to come out."
The guards said, "Young Madam, we won't go."
Although everyone said so, under Zhang Yonghui's insistence, most of the guards sat down cross-legged and waited for them to come out. Zhang Yonghui only brought the leader of the guards and four others onto the small boat. Ye Kong also followed.
Following which, the small boat moved slowly. It flew faster and faster, until it finally disappeared into the space in front of them.
"What a magnificent scenery." Ye Kong stood at the back of the small boat, praising in his heart.
In front of him was a rippling bluish-green lake water and a bluish-green sky. Heaven and earth were connected, and it was as though they were in an ink painting. In front of them was not the surface of the sea, but a vast lake. The small boat moved quickly across the water, creating ripples. On both sides of the water, the ink painting was dotted with specks of red lotuses.
"Those are the forbidden red lotuses." This was the first time everyone present saw this scenery, and they all sighed in their hearts.
However, what was surprising was that one of Zhang Yonghui's guards became dumbfounded. He took a step forward and actually wanted to walk out of the small boat to pick the red lotuses in the water.
Everyone else on the boat was also dumbfounded, and they did not have the mood to care about this person. Instead, Li Heizi, who had been silent all this time, suddenly shouted, "Dig, it's really beautiful!"
This shout startled everyone awake. The guard who was already standing on the side of the boat was so scared that he fell back into the boat. He thought to himself, 'That was close!' Zhang Yonghui and the others also thought to themselves, 'This Red Lotus Evil Land is indeed not to be underestimated. It can take people's lives without them knowing!'
Zhang Yonghui ordered, "Everyone, be careful. Don't be mesmerized by the scenery in front of you. Don't forget, this is the most dangerous of the Eight Great Evil Lands, the Red Lotus Evil Land. If you're not careful, you'll die."
This way, everyone became more careful and stopped being mesmerized by the scenery. However, Zhang Yonghui inadvertently looked towards the silent Li Heizi. She wondered if he did it on purpose or was it just a coincidence?
As the small boat moved forward, a large blue pleasure boat appeared on both sides. Everyone turned their heads and saw that there were many gambling tables on the pleasure boat. Many gamblers were gambling on the tables, and in the rooms of the pleasure boat, there were windows facing the outside. Looking through the windows, they could see pairs of men and women doing things that would make people's hearts beat faster.
Seeing this, the guards could not help but laugh. Some of them looked towards the gambling table and saw someone screaming, "I won again! Hahaha! " There were also some guards who looked towards the room. However, the parts of the men and women's intercourse were hidden under the thin gauze. They felt their hearts itch and wanted to go over to the boat to see what was going on.
Zhang Yonghui was a woman, and when she saw this scene, her face immediately turned red.
Looking at the pleasure boat, she saw that there was someone painting. Zhang Yonghui usually liked these things. Looking at the flowers, plants, and people, they all looked very similar. The man who was painting was also very handsome and elegant. He actually raised his head and smiled at her, saying, "Come, I'll teach you how to paint." This man's appearance was actually the most beautiful man in Zhang Yonghui's heart …
However, at this moment, her eyes noticed Ye Kong, who was sitting at the stern of the boat. She suddenly realized that Ye Kong was very calm. He sat there as if he did not see what was happening in front of him. Zhang Yonghui's heart immediately tensed up and she guarded her heart!
However, at this moment, a guard shouted, "I want to go!" Zhang Yonghui cried in her heart, "Oh no!"
