I practice cultivation cautiously in a strange world

Chen Lin took the jade slip and looked at the contents inside.

The other party actually carved a three-dimensional image on the jade slip, as lifelike as a living person. It was the tavern proprietress!

He thought quickly in his mind about how to use this matter to save Luo Qinglan, and continued to ask.

"My lord, the commander, ordered me, so my subordinates naturally dare not disobey. However, my subordinates are unable to leave this place now. Is there any way, my lord, to send my subordinates out?"

The silver-armored woman nodded and said, "Yes, but to prevent you from coming back if you go out, we need to sign a contract."

Chen Lin's expression changed slightly, but he had no reason to refuse.

The content of the other party's contract is simple. It just agrees that whether he finds the person or not within a hundred years, he will come back and live again. If he finds the person, he will pay the reward and the contract will be terminated. If he does not find the person, he will continue to search.

There are no other restrictions.

Seeing this, Chen Lin signed the contract without hesitation.

The other party just said that he could find the boss's wife and ask for information. He didn't say that he had to get a way to make the other party leave this place. It didn't matter. He just needed to take out Gu Lianfeng's token and the contract would be completed.

And he felt that the way the tavern proprietress left here must have something to do with Gu Lianfeng, but he had not yet found out who Gu Lianfeng was.

"Okay, it's a mess here now, and there is a danger of death at any time. Do you have anything else to do? If not, I will send you out."

The woman in silver armor couldn't wait.

Chen Lin hesitated again and again, but still did not tell what happened to Luo Qinglan.

Not to mention that the other party and Luo Qinglan are two opposing camps, even if they are not, telling Luo Qinglan now is equivalent to leaving a hostage for the other party. With Luo Qinglan's strength, he is definitely not his opponent.

Anyway, he can come back at any time after leaving. When the time comes, he will not ask the other party to hand over the task. After understanding all the situations, he will decide what to do before it is too late.

After thinking about it, Chen Lin immediately said: "Reporting to the Commander-in-Chief, I have nothing else to do. I just need to go back to Guqian County. I still have two companions there. They have not been fully assimilated yet. Just take them out together."

"Can."

The woman in silver armor glanced at Chen Lin expressionlessly.

Then he added: "But I want to remind you that the strange power here comes from a higher interface and is beyond our ability to understand. Although you don't have any signs of assimilation now, as long as you are contaminated with the strange aura here, you will definitely be assimilated." , it’s just a matter of time.”

After a slight pause, she thought for a moment and said: "Your situation is a bit special, but your two companions are probably not like you. It doesn't make much sense whether you leave or not. It's better to stay here. You can remain immortal after assimilation. Wait After you find Qiu Mufan, you may be able to bring them a glimmer of hope!"

Chen Lin's face showed a look of struggle, then he nodded and said: "The commander is right, let them stay here first!"

In fact, he didn't really want to go back to the county to pick up anyone, he was just showing up.

It makes no sense whether He Chengfeng accepts or not. As the other party said, there is still a chance if you stay here. If the assimilation symptoms worsen after leaving, there will be nothing you can do, and Xiaocao can be recalled to his side at any time.

But this situation must be told, otherwise if the other party investigates him, there will be mistakes.

"Okay, this is my token. No matter which area you enter the fairyland from next time, you can use this token to find the nearest government for help. Then you can contact me. My name is Nan Mochu!"

Handing the token to Chen Lin, the woman in silver armor grabbed Chen Lin to her side with a wave of her hand, and then turned into a ray of silver light and shot away.

…

At the edge of the ruins, Chen Lin's figure fell out.

He immediately restrained his soul, suppressed the mana that suddenly returned to its normal state, and then observed carefully.

Although it has been a while since they entered the ruins, it is not known whether the demon bear has left. The opponent has sixth-level strength and can shatter the void. As long as he senses his presence, he can catch up immediately.

After waiting for a while and finding nothing unusual, Chen Lin breathed a sigh of relief.

At the same time, there was a look of wonder in his eyes.

The silver-armored woman didn't know what kind of cultivation she had originally, but her methods were really powerful. She looked at the folded and dislocated space at the edge of the ruins as if it were nothing, and easily sent him out.

Normal golden elixir does not have such ability.

However, the other party said that anyone who enters the ruins will inevitably be eroded by the power of the strange rules inside. This situation needs to be confirmed carefully. He does not feel anything now, but he cannot be careless.

After thinking for a while, Chen Lin began to identify the direction.

He didn't dare to go too far away from the ruins, so he stayed close to the edge of the ruins to check. If the demon bear appeared, he would immediately hide inside the ruins.

After checking for a long time, I finally determined the approximate location. I didn't dare to use the communication talisman. I was afraid that the energy fluctuation would attract attention. I first set up a small teleportation array underground in a hidden place on the edge of the ruins, and then moved forward cautiously close to the ground. .

He did not go to the temporary cave to look for Zhou Shiwu, but returned to Baiyu City first.

Humans and monsters are not at odds with each other. The relationship between humans and monsters is not harmonious because they hunt each other. No matter how powerful the monster bear is, he does not dare to make trouble in White Jade City.

There are also strong Void Refiners in White Jade City, and there are several of them.

Even so, Chen Lin did not enter the city directly. Instead, he inquired around the outside and made sure that the demon bear was not around before entering the city.

After finding a high-end inn and renting a quiet independent room, he entered the nightmare world and summoned Xiaocao and Fat Tiger to him.

"Tell me about your respective situations, Xiaocao, you go first."

After bringing his two loyal partners back to reality, Chen Lin immediately asked.

Xiaocao sensed that the suppressive force of the strange rules disappeared, and knew that she had left the ruins, but she did not ask any more questions, but replied: "Go back to the master, there is nothing going on over there. I have been staying with He Chengfeng at the inn in the county town. Untouched.”

Chen Lin nodded and looked at Fat Hu again.

Fat Tiger still looked dull and said mechanically: "Reporting to the master, not long after you left, the monsters around the ruins began to riot for some reason. Zhou Shiwu and I felt that something was wrong, and we sent you the communication talisman but got no response. So I went out to search. Zhou Shiwu was attacked by a monster and seriously injured. He was found by the people from the White Jade City Demon Hunting Team and brought back to the city. I stayed in the cave, waiting for the master to come back, and at the same time, I was waiting for information from the old cultivators. , but no old cultivator can come out of the ruins."

"Zhou Shiwu was injured?"

Chen Lin frowned.

Needless to say, the monster riot must be related to the monster bear.

He already knew about this matter before entering the city. There were many rioting monsters, but they had been suppressed by monks from several surrounding cities. The monster bears did not show up.

However, it is impossible to kill a sixth-level monster. At the realm of refining the void, unless the strength exceeds too much, it will be difficult to kill even if several of the same level surround one. The ability to break the void is very suitable for escaping.

Of course, Tao Yun strongmen are not counted. The power of Taoism is enough to kill ordinary refining voids with one blow. It is very powerful, otherwise it would not be listed separately.

There were no strange signs in the city, so Chen Lin asked Pang Hu to send a messenger talisman to Zhou Shiwu.

Soon, the other party got a reply, and he actually lived in the yard where he rented before, and his injury had not fully recovered.

Without letting the other party come to find him, Chen Lin sent Fat Hu into the Nightmare Realm and helped him guard the Nightmare Realm storage bag in the woods, while he took Xiaocao around for a while, and then returned to the rental house. Living in the yard.

"Subordinate pays homage to the master!"

Zhou Shiwu looked very excited when he saw Chen Lin, and then asked with concern: "There is no news about the master for so long, but he entered the ruins of an ancient country?"

Chen Lin nodded.

The other party has a soul contract with him and will not betray him, so there is no need to hide it.

Zhou Shiwu's eyes lit up and he immediately said: "Then Master, has he found the person he is looking for?"

If Chen Lin completes his goal, he will no longer take risks, and he can practice with peace of mind. He does not have much life left, and he was injured again. If he delays any longer, there is really no possibility of forming a pill. .

Chen Lin shook his head, "Not yet, but I have some clues. I have some things to do when I come out this time, and I will have to go in again in a while. You can just rest here and recover. By the way, pay attention to a sixth-level golden monster." The movement of the bear, this monster has a grudge against me, so you must pay close attention."

Zhou Shiwu was stunned for a moment, then respectfully agreed.

Leaving some pills for the other party, Chen Lin went straight to the Fairy Tavern.

As expected, the tavern has been closed and the proprietress is nowhere to be found.

After he opened the colorful aura from the wine pot, the other party bluntly said that he wanted to close the tavern, but Chen Lin was still a little disappointed.

This person is mysterious and abnormal, and he must have the secret to solve the problem of being assimilated by the rules of the ruins. Not only does the woman in silver armor need it, but he also needs it. Although he has a certain degree of confidence in his situation, he is not afraid of anything else. If he is really assimilated No joke.

I asked around the shops, but no one knew the whereabouts of the tavern proprietress.

Chen Lin thought for a while and came to Ruyi Pavilion.

"Senior Chen, there has been no news from you for so long. Did you enter the ruins?"

When the female shopkeeper saw Chen Lin, she immediately showed a look of surprise. She moved Chen Lin into a quiet room and asked.

Chen Lin promised that the remuneration for the second batch of veteran cultivators was still insufficient. She had been inquiring about his whereabouts these days, but Zhou Shiwu didn't know either, which made her very anxious.

Chen Lin did not tell the truth, but said vaguely: "Some changes happened, so I was delayed. I should still owe some old cultivators in the shop the remuneration. I will make up for it this time. In addition, the shopkeeper has also borne the responsibility these days." There is a lot of responsibility, and this bottle of elixir can be considered as compensation for your mental losses."

After making up for the missing elixirs, Chen Lin took out another bottle of Bailitan and gave it to the other party.

The female shopkeeper's original resentment suddenly disappeared and she thanked her profusely.

"Does the shopkeeper know the proprietress of the Fairy Tavern?"

After solving the remaining problems, Chen Lin asked.
