The Book of Maiden Contract

Lin Luo didn't answer clearly, and Xiao Xiao was naturally confused when she heard it. She instinctively looked at Qi Qi and found that this "little" teacher didn't speak, so she became even more confused... If Lin Luo wasn't The master she respected, she really wanted to yell: What are you guys messing around with?

Of course, whether it is a real teacher or a fake teacher, these are not what Xiao Xiao cares about. The most important thing is that there is no danger for Lin Luo to know this palm-sized villain, and that is enough.

And Lin Luo didn't explain much to Xiao Xiao. After a brief introduction, Qi Qi floated on Lin Luo's shoulder like a pet and sat down. Then the group of three walked along the map to God Go in the direction where the craftsman's ruins are located.

Losing the alchemy props, Lin Luo's ability to move will inevitably drop a lot, but in actual walking, although it is far inferior to the previous night travel, it is still several times faster than in the normal state. The reason is also very simple: Although Qiqi lost her power, her essence would not change—in an equivalent exchange, she absorbed all the energy of the alchemy props, although in her opinion these energies were worth nothing, but if In the eyes of ordinary alchemists, it is already unimaginably powerful, and more importantly, what kind of ability does the alchemy tool absorbed by Qiqi have, what kind of ability Qiqi has.

Although many of these abilities cannot be used on Lin Luo, she can take advantage of the opportunity to display some auxiliary abilities, so Lin Luo's foot strength is naturally much faster.

In addition, Qiqi absorbed the mystery of alchemy and had a certain sensitivity to alchemy. Coupled with her own ability and experience, as long as the distance is not too far, where there are fluctuations in alchemy, Qiqi will Being able to sense it is like a treasure-hunting detector, which is countless times more convenient than Lin Luo looking for it with a map.

With the help of Qiqi, it is convenient and fast to move. Although there will be some obstacles on the road, it is not a problem, like ordinary bandits or wild beasts, as long as you leave it to a small person. It was solved, and Qiqi took care of the little troubles that could not be solved, and there were no dangers along the way.

After about ten days like this, Lin Luo finally came to the ruins of the master craftsman marked on the map.

It was an ancient castle hidden in a deep mountain, covered by countless vines, and it was covered with spider webs at a glance, making it look desolate and mysterious. On the outskirts of the castle, there are many natural traps, as well as alchemy prohibitions that have lost their effectiveness due to the age. There is no difference between the front and none.

On the contrary, those natural traps are relatively more terrifying, even if Lin Luo is not careful, he almost capsizes in the gutter.

"Why does the master craftsman live in such a dangerous place?" Little Xiaoxin asked with lingering fear, not quite understanding.

"It's a matter of course. All master craftsmen have secrets that cannot be passed on. Ordinary alchemists may not be able to deal with them, but the competition among peers is extremely fierce. If a master craftsman can get another It is not a big problem to directly double the ability of the alchemy secret technique of the master craftsmen. In order to protect themselves, the residences chosen by the master craftsmen are naturally as hidden as possible... In fact, if this site is not deserted, I am afraid that it will be destroyed. We may not be able to get in." Lin Luo explained indifferently.

While speaking, a group of three people had already arrived at the gate of the castle.

"Be careful, it might be a bit weird in here." Before Lin Luo could enter, Qi Qi, who was sitting on his shoulder, reminded him aloud.

Hearing this sentence, Lin Luo was not doing much, but Xiao Xiao had already cheered up. After these ten days of getting along, Xiao Xiao has basically figured out the character of this little teacher's wife. Under normal circumstances, she hardly speaks, even with Lin Luo, she rarely communicates, but as long as she talks, it means that she What to say is necessary and important, especially for the sense of danger. She has never missed it along the way.

And now that Qiqi spoke, it meant that there was danger in this castle.

"Well, then be careful." Lin Luo nodded, and then reached out to push the door... His seemingly disapproving attitude is of course not because he doesn't trust Qi Qi, but since he came, there is no reason to return empty-handed , no matter what dangers there are inside, they have to make a dash for it. If they really die because of this, it can only be said to be doomed.

And even though Qiqi said be careful, she didn't tell them not to go in. It was obvious that there was danger inside, but it wasn't enough to kill them.

The gate of the castle is made of iron, which has been rusted due to the age, and is also entangled with many ivy. Lin Luo failed to push it open, and there was a creaking and harsh sound.

Qiqi flew away from Lin Luo's shoulder, and circled the city gate with her small body. Then Lin Luo pushed again, and there was a sudden bang, and the whole city gate fell down in response. If you look carefully, you can see At the corner of the city gate, there were obvious signs of splitting. Obviously, this gate was cut open by Qi Qi using alchemy.

After the city gate fell, there was a decaying smell coming from inside, which made people uncomfortable. Although Qi Qi would not be affected by this smell, Lin Luo and Xiao Xiao couldn't help but cover their noses, frowning .

"Take it easy before going in." Lin Luo suggested, and then walked to the side to breathe fresh air.

I don't know how many hundreds of years this castle has been abandoned. The smell of decay is too strong. If they just go in like this, the smell alone will be enough to greatly affect their five senses, and it will also affect their sense of danger. Be vigilant, it is better to wait and let the castle ventilate, which can be regarded as reducing the pungent smell.

After a period of time, when the ventilation was almost clear, the group of three finally entered the castle cautiously.

For a castle that has been closed for hundreds of years or more, the decayed smell inside cannot be completely eliminated by just ventilating for a few hours. Even if it is ventilated, the smell is only slightly better in the outer part. The inside of the castle probably won’t change much, but anyway, it’s much better than before, at least Lin Luo doesn’t have to pinch his nose while walking.

The deserted castle was very dark and quiet, and it was difficult to see the sunlight because of the location. The three of Lin Luo hadn't walked for long, and their vision was already blurred. Fortunately, there was Qi Qi, who could use alchemy to illuminate it. However, the problem of light can be solved, but the deathly silence makes people feel a little bit creepy, only the sound of shoes stepping on the ground and his own breathing can be heard in the ears, just like acting in a horror movie.

"How do you feel?" Lin Luo asked Qiqi.

Qiqi shook her head, "Everywhere is the same, revealing a little weirdness, but I don't know the details, but... If there are really things, they should take the initiative to find us."

Lin Luo nodded secretly, no matter if it is a supernatural movie or a horror movie, but wherever there are ghosts and ghosts, if there are outsiders intruding, even if they don't want to encounter them, the other party will definitely take the initiative to make trouble, so they just need to sit back and wait. .

"Ah!" Suddenly, Xiao Xiao let out an exclamation, and then quickly covered his mouth.

"What's wrong?" Lin Luo asked quickly, and Qi Qi also looked at her.

Xiaoxiao stretched out her finger to the dark and silent passage in front, with a hint of fear on her face, she said in a low voice, "Just... just now, I saw a white shadow passing through there, and it seemed to be smiling at me. one time……"

Lin Luo wasn't terribly scared at first, but after hearing what she said, he suddenly felt a chill down his back. Of course, there is actually nothing behind him, even if there is, Qiqi can protect him well, it's just a psychological effect.

"Qiqi, did you see it?" Lin Luo asked.

Qi Qi shook her head.

"I... what I said is true." Xiao Xiaoji said, she still has lingering fears.

Of course Lin Luo knew that she wouldn't lie. In fact, aside from other abilities, among the three, the one with the best eyesight is Xiao Xiao. It's not surprising that she can see bad things in the dark. Asking Qiqi just wanted to confirm. It's just that although Qiqi's sense is the most acute, she really can't find anything unusual in this castle full of weirdness...or, in other words, everything around her makes her feel abnormal, but instead she doesn't feel anything abnormal. What's up.

Unless the opponent can take the initiative to expose or release killing intent, small eyesight will be more effective.

"Try to be careful." Lin Luo said solemnly, and then the three continued to move forward.

At this time, the three of them stopped talking, and even their voices were kept to a minimum when they were walking. The three pairs of eyes carefully stared at everything around them, and then walked and walked, and nothing happened.

"Hehe." I don't know how long it took, just when the three of them thought that nothing would happen for the time being, a strange laughter suddenly rang in their ears. Others didn't know, anyway, Lin Luo was a conditioned reflex. gave a shudder.

"There!" Then Xiao Xiao exclaimed again, his face turning livid.

In fact, she didn't need to remind her at all. At this moment, both Lin Luo and Qiqi noticed that not far in front of them, a small white shadow floated past, showing a pale expression, and smiled at them. .

Seeing this scene, Qi Qi remained expressionless, but Lin Luo and Xiao Xiao couldn't help but feel a layer of goosebumps, and felt a faint chill in their hearts... In fact, they are not bad, if they change to be a little more courageous The people who are here are probably scared out of their wits.

"Hehe." Then, the same weird laughter came from behind.

The three looked back instinctively, and saw another white shadow drifting past.

"Oops, we're surrounded."

Seeing this, Lin Luo immediately sank his face.

...Fortunately, this chapter was coded during the day, and I felt very relieved. If it was at night, I would definitely not code this chapter.
