I practice cultivation cautiously in a strange world

Chen Lin successfully flew out of the woods, and his spirit suddenly shook, but he did not stop, but continued to fly forward, flying very far before stopping and landing on the ground.

This place is full of barren mountains and mountains, and he doesn't dare to be too blatant, lest he encounter other strange dangers just after escaping.

"Senior, I can't do it anymore, let's take a rest?"

He Chengfeng followed up panting. His cultivation was too low, and his flying relied on talismans. However, he didn't have many flying talismans, so he didn't dare to use them all. In the end, he could only use the light body talisman and the speed talisman to follow him on the ground. , I almost died from exhaustion.

In this case, Chen Lin should slow down and wait for him, otherwise he would not be able to catch up.

Chen Lin ignored the other party and looked far behind him.

A blue figure came quickly and was close in a blink of an eye.

It was the man in blue robe.

"Don't worry, fellow Taoist. I don't have any ill intentions. I just want to discuss some things with you."

When the man in blue robe saw Chen Lin's unkind expression, he immediately explained.

Chen Lin glanced at the other party and said expressionlessly: "Tell me about it?"

In fact, he had noticed that the other party was catching up a long time ago, but he also wanted to communicate with the other party and gain some understanding of the situation here. Otherwise, with the other party's speed, even if he brought He Chengfeng with him, the other party would never be able to catch up.

"My official, Xu Qingyuan, is the newly appointed magistrate of Guqian County and is about to take up his post."

The man in blue robe first introduced his identity, and then continued: "Fellow Taoist also saw it. I am afraid that some people are not willing to take up my post this time, so this interception was carried out. I want to hire fellow Taoist as my Guard and protect me when I go to Guqian County to take up my post."

"Guard?"

Chen Lin raised his eyes, shook his head and said, "I don't like to be restrained, so please ask fellow Taoist to invite someone else!"

In this weird ruins, if you dare to act as a guard for someone you don't understand, no matter how much he wants to know the information, he won't agree.

Moreover, this man was in a lot of trouble. There was no telling who would come to intercept and kill him, so he would not agree to it.

The man in blue robe seemed to have expected that Chen Lin would refuse, and did not continue to insist. Instead, he took out a token and handed it to Chen Lin: "This is my token. If you want to find me, please feel free to contact me at any time." You can come to Guqian County, and I will definitely give fellow Taoist a satisfactory reward."

Having said this, he paused and then said: "Fellow Taoist, please remember that any creature here has its own domain. If it dies in the domain, it will mutate and become stronger. It must not be killed easily. If you want to deal with it, you must find the rules and fulfill the requirements of the rules before you can leave, otherwise you will always be trapped in the field."

Chen Lin knew that the other party had identified him as an outsider, which was also a kind of temptation.

The other party can think whatever he wants, but he cannot admit it. He just listens quietly without any reaction.

Seeing this, the man in blue robe looked at Chen Lin meaningfully and said, "Fellow Taoist, don't think that you can do whatever you want just because your means are magical. Those robbers are just ordinary warriors without mutation. You can They completely killed and broke through the realm. They are indeed very powerful, but they cannot reach the level of no scruples. There are countless strong people in the Immortal Kingdom, so fellow Taoists should be more cautious."

After saying that, he threw a bag to Chen Lin and said: "This is the immortal crystal of fellow Taoist, see you later!"

Then he rose into the air and returned the way he came.

Chen Lin watched the other party disappear and weighed the bag.

This is a clear sign of goodwill, and perhaps also because she is afraid that he will take advantage of the situation and kill people to seize treasures.

Thirty spiritual crystals is not a small amount, so it would be great to get it back. Chen Lin put it into his storage bag and began to think about the meaning of the other party's words.

The other party's last words seemed to have something to say, saying that he had completely killed the robber. Does the word "completely" mean that after he killed the bandit leader, the other party could not be resurrected?

Is it because of this that the so-called field collapsed?

After careful analysis, Chen Lin felt that it was very possible, but instead of going back to confirm, he quickly left with He Chengfeng.

Ten days later.

Chen Lin walked on the ancient streets and browsed the shops on both sides.

This place is called Qinshan Town and is under the jurisdiction of Guqian County.

Not only this town, but also the area with a radius of thousands of miles is the territory of Guqian County. After all, it is a fairy country, and the area is much larger than a normal country.

This also confirms the saying that the ruins form a world of their own. In the outside world, a circle around the ruins of this ancient country is only a few thousand miles away, but here, it is more than a million miles wide.

In such a vast area, it is not easy to find someone. Chen Lin felt the difficulty of the matter.

He Chengfeng followed Chen Lin, looking very nervous.

After experiencing the robbery incident, he now looked at everyone in the ruins as if they were mutated monsters, as if they might rush up and devour him at any time.

Chen Lin noticed the other party's abnormality, but ignored it. The other party's mental endurance was too poor, and he was not like a foundation-building monk at all. He just needed to hone it, so as not to panic when encountering danger and not be able to help.

After these days of inquiring, he already has a certain understanding of the situation here. Strictly speaking, the people here are not really human beings, but they don't know it themselves and still think that they are normal.

In addition, every creature here has its own domain.

The reason for its formation cannot be determined. Although the people here are solidified and immortal, their memories will be constantly refreshed. Each refresh is the end of their lives for them.

So slowly, everyone became accustomed to it, and this abnormal situation became normal.

The so-called domain is a unique way of existence. Different from the realm of the soul, this domain is fixed and is a certain place in reality that cannot be changed or moved.

Chen Lin speculated that a person's territory is where they exist when they are completely alienated.

This was also mentioned in some of the ancient books he checked.

It is precisely because of the existence of the domain that people here are immortal. Even if they are killed, they will be reborn in the domain. However, once reborn, the degree of mutation will be higher and the scope of movement will be smaller. , after complete alienation, it will become an irrational monster, extremely powerful, but unable to leave the realm for half a step.

Of course, the so-called immortality is not absolute. If the strength gap is too large, or there are any special means, the people here can still be completely wiped out, making them unable to be reborn.

However, the royal family of the Immortal Kingdom has an express prohibition. Unless under special circumstances, it is strictly forbidden to use the method of complete extermination, because while the people of the Immortal Kingdom have acquired the characteristics of immortality, they have also lost the ability to reproduce. If such situations are not controlled, then the Immortal Kingdom will The population will become smaller and smaller and eventually die out automatically.

Of course, when he killed the robbers, it must have been a special situation, so Xu Qingyuan recruited him.

As for the identity of outsiders, there is nothing strange here, because outsiders often appear here, and they will basically be slowly assimilated by the power of the rules here and become a part of this place. In this case, Fairyland Official Be happy to see the results, this is the only way to make up for the loss of population.

Moreover, after outsiders are assimilated, they also have the characteristics of immortality. After being killed and alienated, they can also form a domain and be reborn.

Chen Lin had no intention of digging into the history of this ancient Sanyu country, nor was he interested in its existence. He just wanted to find Luo Qinglan as soon as possible.

After learning about the rules here, he became worried that Luo Qinglan had been assimilated.

We must hurry up.

Chen Lin secretly warned himself.

We can no longer delay, and we must speed up the search even if we take some risks.

Otherwise, if Luo Qinglan is assimilated, even if he is found, it will be meaningless. After assimilation, he will become a person from the Immortal Kingdom. Restricted by the rules, people in the Immortal Kingdom will never leave the scope of the ruins. As long as they leave, their souls will be destroyed!

"Senior, look, it's Wang Ziqiang!"

While Chen Lin was thinking, He Chengfeng behind him suddenly spoke in a low voice with a look of surprise.

Hearing this, he put away his thoughts and followed the other party's guidance to look over, and saw an old man sitting in a noodle shop eating noodle soup.

This person is one of the second batch of veteran Qi practitioners he recruited!

After pondering for a moment, Chen Lin did not go directly. Instead, he took He Chengfeng to a nearby teahouse, ordered two bowls of tea, and kept an eye on him.

After the old cultivator finished eating and left, they followed him.

The other party did not stay in the town, but came all the way to the outside of the town, walking leisurely along the official road.

Chen Lin gave He Chengfeng a wink and walked up quickly.

"Hey, Lao Wang, where are you going?"

He Chengfeng stopped the old repairman and greeted him with a smile.

The old cultivator showed doubts and said, "Who are you? Do we know him?"

"Why, we've only been separated for so long, and you don't even recognize me anymore. It's me, He Chengfeng!"

He Chengfeng's eyes flashed with strange color and he introduced himself.

But the old man shook his head and said: "I haven't heard of it. Please get out of the way and don't block the old man from going home."

"Then do you still remember your mission?"

Chen Lin's voice sounded, his tone gloomy.

The old man looked confused and said: "I think you are mistaken. I am just an ordinary hunter. What mission is there?"

Chen Lin frowned when he saw this, and suddenly stretched out his hand, a white light flashed, and then the old man fainted.

He took a look around, took the person to a remote place, woke him up and cast a spell to question him.

However, after asking for a long time, no useful information came out. The other party did not remember the mission at all, but thought that he had always lived here.

After making sure that nothing could be asked, Chen Lin let the other person leave.

When he casts the spell, the other party is in a state of fascination and will not remember anything. There is no need to kill and silence, and it is impossible to kill and silence here. If you die, you can be resurrected, which will make you even more powerful.

If the memories were not refreshed and mutated, many people would probably choose to commit suicide to make themselves stronger.

The old cultivator stood on the official road at a loss for a while. He felt as if he had forgotten something, but he couldn't remember it. Finally he shook his head and walked forward.

Chen Lin and He Chengfeng continued to follow. The other party was practicing Qi cultivation when he came in. Now he has been suppressed and turned into an ordinary person, walking very slowly.

It was almost dark before we came to the edge of a village and walked into a thatched house.

After following him for two days, Chen Lin finally determined that this old cultivator had been completely assimilated and became a part of this place.

He sighed, stopped following, and did not return to the town. Instead, he went straight to Guqian County.

There was no wanted order for Luo Qinglan in this town. He wanted to go to the county town to have a look. If there was none, it meant that this place was far away from the town where He Chengfeng met and the wanted order had not spread here.

That would be even more troublesome.

Because of the abnormal space here, the communication talisman cannot be used. Even the official information of the Immortal Kingdom needs to rely on the inn. If the distance is too far, he will have to go through many twists and turns to find Luo Qinglan.

Staying here for one more day would increase the risk of being assimilated, so the old cultivator would not end up what he wanted.

A few days later.

Chen Lin stood in front of a majestic city, staring at a row of notices beside the city gate.

On one of them is Luo Qinglan’s wanted order!

Luo Qinglan, a female, is an outsider who has ascended from the lower world and committed a heinous crime of indiscriminate killing of innocent people. Anyone who captures this person alive will be rewarded with 10,000 immortal crystals. Those with a white body will be awarded a third-class knighthood. Those with an official body will be promoted to two levels. Anyone who kills this person will be rewarded with immortal crystals. Five thousand, those with a white body will be awarded a fifth-level noble title, and those with an official status will be promoted to one level; those who provide accurate information will be rewarded with one thousand fairy crystals, those with a white body will be awarded a low-level official status, and those with official status will be excellent in the evaluation!

Below is a portrait of Luo Qinglan, which is very vivid.

Chen Lin looked at the huge reward above and couldn't help but wonder what outrageous thing his wife had done to deserve such a large amount of treatment from the Immortal Kingdom.

The current reward is much larger than the reward on the wanted notice that He Chengfeng brought out before. Luo Qinglan must have done something to make the officials angry, but strangely, this was not mentioned on the wanted notice. , and did not give an approximate location where Luo Qinglan often hangs out, which is very abnormal.

He looked at the notice next to him again. In addition to Luo Qinglan, there were also other wanted orders. They were clearly marked on them. It was clear what the wanted person did, what he had committed, where he was, etc.

"Senior, do you want to go into the city?"

He Chengfeng's voice sounded.

He now wanted to leave alone. Wang Ziqiang's condition frightened him, but he felt that with his ability, it would be difficult to find the edge of the ruins, so he could only follow Chen Lin.

Chen Lin hesitated for a moment and nodded.

"Let's go in and have a look."

If it were based on his personality, he would not enter this Guqian County, and he would not want to come into contact with Xu Qingyuan. If the other party guesses his identity as an outsider and knows that he has the means to completely kill the people here, it is likely that there will be complications. .

However, after learning these days, some secret information is known only to officials. If you want to find out the specific information about Luo Qinglan, Xu Qingyuan is the best candidate, and he is also the only official person who can contact him at present.

As for Gu Lianfeng, whom the landlady introduced to him, he had no intention of contacting him until he was desperate.

The landlady was hiding something from him and had an impure purpose, which made him wary. Moreover, the palace was so close and so far away that it was not easy to get there.

It is best not to use this line if possible.
