Above the gray fog

Return the empty cup to the villager next to you.

Lin Shan looked at the villager who was suspected to be the clan leader, "Can you understand me?"

"Human, thank you for bringing back the resources collected by Wen Xi and Aqil. With these, our clan may not perish in the next cold winter. I am the leader of the Wendito clan - Wenwo, human, You can just call me by my name."

"My name is Mumushan, you can also call me by my name." Lin Shan found this title a bit strange.

"Mumushan, the letter said that this is your first time coming to the cross-strait border. I wonder what you want to do here? Our clan will definitely repay the kindness you have shown us."

"If it's not convenient to say it, you don't have to say it. I've prepared a place for you. You can come to me anytime if you need it."

Wen Wo dismissed the other villagers and led the way for Lin Shan.

Lin Shan followed Wen Wo and walked on the stone road. He found that the pavement under his feet was warm and would rise and fall, as if... it was alive.

"There is nothing inconvenient to say. I want to go to the other side. I wonder if the clan leader can point me to a way?"

"The other side..." Wen Wo looked embarrassed, "Although the cross-strait border is not as vast as the shore, it still has an almost unlimited range. Walking here without road signs will be difficult. We, the Wendi Tuo clan, can only go to Canglan. There are no signposts to the other side. If this is your only request, Mumushan, we will try our best to satisfy it, but... it may take a while. "

"Well, the purpose of my coming here is to go to the other side. I have no other demands." Lin Shan thanked him softly, "Thank you for your trouble, Patriarch."

"This is what our clan should do." Wen Wo slowly shook his head, and then pointed to a separate small courtyard, "Mumushan, things on the other side may take a lot of time. You can live here for a long time. If you get the other side Road signs, I will notify you as soon as possible.”

"This building is not a creation of our tribe. An earthquake two thousand years ago changed the nearby terrain. After the earthquake ended, this building appeared in our village. I have explored it many times and found some We can’t read the words and books on the shore. If you are interested, I can have all the found books sent to you later.”

"Thank you for your trouble." Lin Shan looked at the courtyard ahead and nodded lightly.

"I think your strength has not yet reached the second level of Heavenly Ascension. If it is not necessary, try not to leave the village. The border is not as good as the shore, and there are ferocious beasts everywhere." Wen Wo reminded as if he thought of something.

"Also, when it gets dark, it's best not to go out with the door of the room closed. There will be thunder every night." Wenwo thought for a while and reminded him.

Lin Shan was confused, "What is the earth's ringing?"

"The earth will come alive." Wen Wo said solemnly, "When the earth rumbles, the space where the village is located will be stretched. Night is the time when beasts come out. If something goes wrong, I may not be able to rush to rescue you immediately. As long as I wait, Just leave the door open in the house and the guardian will protect you."

"You can do what you want during the day." Wenwo raised a hand and touched the back of his head. "Next, I have to gather the clan members to prepare for the cold winter. I'll excuse you."

"Um."

Lin Shan originally wanted to ask about Han Dongdong again, but seeing Wen Wo's anxious look, the question on his lips turned into a soft hum.

After Wen Wo left, Lin Shan went straight to his new residence.

From the outside, this single-family building feels separate from the entire village.

Both should not exist in the same place at the same time.

The small building looks old and a little desolate, with a somewhat Western architectural style on the outside. The bricks and stones on the exterior wall have peeled off, revealing the gray-white base underneath, which seems to have withstood years of wind and rain erosion. There is a small garden in front, but inside It was empty, with nothing but a few withered bushes, and even the ground looked cracked and uneven.

He stepped into the garden, his steps were very light, but the sound of stepping was still very clear.

Lin Shan walked to the door in front of the building.

The wooden door has faded and is cracked, but its former delicacy and heaviness can still be seen.

With a slight push, the door made a harsh creaking sound, as if it hadn't been opened for years.

Walking into the house, Lin Shan suddenly felt an old smell blowing against his face.

The light inside the house was dim, and the sunlight shining through the windows was blocked by the heavy curtains, making the interior look dim and depressing.

The wooden floor is badly worn, and when you step on it gently, it makes a faint squeaking sound, as if every step can stir up an echo deep in the house.

The furnishings in the living room are simple, an old sofa and a round table. The table top is covered with yellowing cloth, slightly curled, with some wrinkles on the edges.

There are several shabby paintings hanging on the wall, the colors faded, leaving only mottled traces.

There was a musty smell in the air, indicating that no one had lived here for a long time.

Lin Shan walked around the living room and towards the stairs.

The stairs were made of wood, and the steps were steep and unstable. You could hear creaking with every step you took.

There are finely carved handrails on both sides of the stairs. Although they are covered with dust, the original exquisite craftsmanship can still be vaguely seen.

Walking up to the second floor, Lin Shan opened a simple wooden door and entered the bedroom.

The bedroom is equally simple. The bed is an old four-poster bed. The bed curtains have faded and the fabric is covered with fine dust.

The corners of the sheet were moth-eaten in places, exposing the wood underneath.

Next to the bed was an old wooden table. There was no decoration on the table, only an upside-down oil lamp. There was a layer of dust on the lampshade, as if no one had touched it for a long time.

The chair by the window also looked a little shabby, but it could be seen that it was once uniquely designed.

Lin Shan walked to the window and pushed it open.

The scene outside was still desolate, and the garden was empty.

This unique small building was on the edge of the village, and there were no villagers walking around within two or three hundred meters.

Although they were very polite, as the female border crosser said, these people were extremely vigilant.

The air was fresh, but a little chilly.

Staring at the scenery outside the window, Lin Shan thought in his heart, I don’t know how long I have to wait here next, he must find something to do.

Lin Shan sat cross-legged on the bed and thought carefully.

It was only half a step away from being promoted to a disorderly person, but this half step seemed to be impossible to take.

The way of life was too illusory, and there was no clear goal to be executed. Lin Shan was now somewhat helpless.

In addition to being promoted to a disorderly person, if he wanted to continue to be promoted, he could only rely on the ‘Wanwu Saint Body’.

He forgot to exchange some new high-level martial arts in Canglan, and now there are no ready-made high-level martial arts to practice.

If he wants to improve his strength, there are only two ways left.

Using the inventory to create new high-level martial arts, although this is more time-consuming, it can be self-produced and self-sold. With his current inventory of martial arts characteristics, it should not be difficult to create tens of thousands of sequence 1-level high-level martial arts.

But even if he practices tens of thousands of martial arts, it is not as good as the promotion of ascending to heaven in one step. Instead of spending time on the improvement of bits and pieces, Lin Shan thinks it is time to consider creating a real creation-level martial arts.

The half-step creation-level martial arts "Hidden Breath Enhanced Edition" and "Immortal Talisman Controlling God Enhanced Edition" can provide him with powerful assistance even now. If he can have one more real creation-level martial arts, even if he can't be promoted to disorder immediately, his strength will probably not be too much worse than the real disorder.
