Lin Beichen was fearless and swam over immediately.
Arriving at the side of the boat, a rotten wooden door slowly opened, bringing up turbid muddy water. The wooden door then rotted and turned into lint, floating in the water.
Lin Beichen narrowed his eyes slightly and swam into it.
As soon as he entered the cabin, everything around him instantly became chaotic. What he saw was a decaying cabin, a dilapidated table, and a vague skeleton sitting behind the table.
But after the screen shook violently for a few times, everything changed drastically.
Lin Beichen appeared in a luxurious cabin.
Luxurious curtains almost wrap the entire cabin, and pear wood furniture is simple and elegant. You can also see the sparkling clear lake outside the window. There are orange trees on the distant mountains, and the red oranges sway in the wind. The whole mountain seems to have become
The flame is burning, and I feel happy when I see it.
"That's Orange Tree Mountain in my hometown. Every autumn, it lights up the sky like a torch, and it's so beautiful."
Lin Beichen looked at the speaker.
A middle-aged man with handsome features waved with a smile: "Sit down, little friend, and drink tea!"
A small charcoal stove is boiling a pot of tea, exuding an elegant aroma.
Lin Beichen knew that these were all hallucinations. Tianguan Map did not give him a task, so he couldn't see how evil this guy was. In this case, he probably wouldn't be able to get his evil deeds by killing him.
"I am a spirit body, I'm afraid I can't drink tea!"
Lin Beichen sat down generously.
The man lifted up the sleeves of his robe and filled a cup of tea for Lin Beichen: "It just so happens that the spirit body cannot drink my fine cloud nectar."
What was poured out of the teapot was not water, but white billowing smoke.
Lin Beichen picked up the tea cup out of curiosity, but it was slightly hot to his hands.
The fragrance was thick on the tip of his nose, and Lin Beichen had the same feeling as smelling the soul fragrance beads, except that the aura contained in it was ten levels weaker.
The man slowly sipped the tea: "Don't worry, I will be lonely here for a long time and I won't hurt you."
Lin Beichen drank the tea in one gulp. The man didn't care about Lin Beichen's vulgar tea, and happily poured another cup for Lin Beichen.
"I and my soldiers have been trapped here for a hundred years, and you are the third guest."
Lin Beichen felt the hot tea scent slowly spreading through his spiritual body. This feeling was as comfortable as basking in the sun in the cold winter.
"I don't like to beat around the bush. On the one hand, I invited you here to relieve this hundred years of loneliness. On the other hand, I hope that you can do me a favor, little friend."
Lin Beichen held the tea cup, looked at the white tea steam rippling inside, and said with a smile: "This tea is indeed not free. I have always been willing to help others. Please tell me."
The man took a deep breath, seemed to be deep in thought, and slowly said: "Actually, I can't remember too much about what happened a hundred years ago. I used to be a powerful figure when I served in the royal family. A hundred years ago, I brought a thousand soldiers through this place.
But I don’t want to leave my body here. As you can see, the thousand soldiers under me have completely lost their spiritual thoughts. They will be dispersed in the world in a few years. And I don’t have much time left. I have been thinking about it.
, I still have one thing that I haven’t finished yet, and I really can’t let it go, so I took the liberty of calling my friend.”
Lin Beichen frowned slightly and said: "You are asking me to avenge you, right? The enemy from a hundred years ago has probably turned into a handful of ashes now. Besides, although I am willing to help others, I will not do it for a cup of tea.
Go through fire and water!"
"No, the grudges of the past years are just for each other. For those of us, we are ready to be killed from the day we kill the enemy."
"I am Yangjiang secret guard Qianhu, named Zhankun. A hundred years ago, I was ordered to escort a treasure to Kyoto. It was precisely because of this treasure that we were killed. I hope you can help me complete the task.
Give the treasure to someone."
As he spoke, the man waved his sleeve, and a simple jade box appeared on the table. There was already a layer of white water on the jade, which had indeed been soaked in water for hundreds of years.
When the box was opened, it was an object wrapped in layers of yellow runes, and it was unclear what was inside.
Lin Beichen asked curiously: "Even if it is a treasure, aren't you afraid that I will steal it for myself?"
Zhan Kun smiled and said: "It is said to be a treasure, but it is of no use to ordinary people like you and me. This object seals a pair of fierce ghosts, one black and one white, extremely powerful. Originally, they were both peaceful, but here
In the underwater mud, the effectiveness of the spell is gradually weakening, and recently the two of them have begun to make moves. If they are not sealed again as soon as possible, once they escape, it may cause a huge catastrophe."
Lin Beichen squinted slightly because a line of system text appeared in his field of vision.
[Discover the suitable candidate for Black and White Impermanence, the degree of compliance is 30%.]
Lin Beichen naturally knew something about Black and White Impermanence. These two were the most famous beings on Blue Star. They were responsible for seducing the souls of the dead. Basically, seeing Black and White Impermanence was like stepping into hell.
Seeing Lin Beichen silent, Zhan Kun thought that Lin Beichen didn't want to help, so he immediately said: "I won't ask my little friend to help in vain. I can write you a letter of recommendation and send you to the Yangjiang Secret Guard. From now on, you will have a royal official position."
Even if you are a high-ranking official or a human being, I will not dare to offend you easily in front of you!"
Lin Beichen's eyes flashed slightly. He was in a great crisis at the moment. If he had an official position, it would be of great benefit.
Zhan Kun saw Lin Beichen's move, a smile appeared on his face, and then he stretched out his hand, and a golden pill suddenly flew towards him.
This pill was actually like a living thing, constantly swimming around Lin Beichen, rising and falling curiously.
"This is a life-protecting elixir that I have collected. It's called the Instant Golden Body. If you swallow it at a critical moment, it will protect you in an instant and resist all kinds of external attacks."
"Haha, you may want to ask why I am in such a situation despite this thing."
Zhan Kun shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I died of poisoning. A golden body can't save me for a moment!"
After Zhan Kun finished speaking, he sighed quietly: "It's human nature if little friend doesn't want to help. I have no time left. If nothing else happens, you will be the last person I see. I will keep this precious elixir of instant golden body."
It's useless, so I'll give it to you."
Lin Beichen did not comment, but asked: "Since there is a vicious object sealed in the jade box, why has no other secret guard come to respond and take away the jade box in a hundred years?"
Zhan Kun said helplessly: "The secret guards came twice, but I couldn't believe it. Logically speaking, I should tell you the whole story, but the less you know about the things in the court, the safer it is."
"You just need to keep one thing in mind. This jade box can only be handed over to Mr. Dai Tianxunshou Wu Chabai Wu, or the current Holy Emperor. Otherwise, it must not be handed over to any other outsider."
Lin Beichen frowned slightly, with many doubts in his heart. Zhan Kun had been in the officialdom for many years, and it was easy to see through Lin Beichen's thoughts. He continued: "Don't worry, as long as you don't leak the news, no one will know that the jade box is with you."
In his hands, you won’t be in any danger. As long as the jade box is handed over to Mr. Wu, those people will no longer have to target you. It can be said that your safety is not a problem."
"I just saw that you have a treasure that can collect Yin spirits. I can summon thousands of Yin spirits in this river for you to collect. Anyway, their souls and will have been wiped out long ago, and there is not much left behind.
significance."
Lin Beichen said hello without hesitation.
Zhan Kun was overjoyed when he heard this: "Thank you very much, little friend. I will write a letter of recommendation for you and hand it to Mr. Wu together. To be honest, Mr. Wu is my uncle. I recommend him, no matter what.
They will all wear the secret guard uniform with you, ensuring that you will have someone to rely on for the rest of your life!"
Zhan Kun was afraid that Lin Beichen would regret it, so he brought a rusty sign. His eyes were slightly closed, and the cold light wandered from his fingertips. The green rust on the sign peeled off, and each small word slowly appeared.
Soon Zhan Kun opened his eyes and handed the sign to Lin Beichen.
Lin Beichen glanced at the bronze plaque, which was engraved with a monster with a tiger head, one horn, dog ears, dragon body, lion tail, and unicorn feet. Now there was a line of small scrawled words on the plaque: "This person is kind to me.
Please take care of me, uncle!"
Lin Beichen raised his head and stared at Zhan Kun. Zhan Kun seemed to have spent too much soul energy carving on the bronze medal. His figure had begun to blur, the surrounding illusions began to become unstable, and the luxurious furniture and curtains continued to decay.
Zhan Kun stood up and bowed to Lin Beichen: "Little friend, it's a matter of catastrophe for the common people, please!"
After saying that, everything around him quickly collapsed, and in the blink of an eye, Lin Beichen was already in a rotten cabin with sewage flowing across it.
In front of him was a rotten table, with a yellow-brown skeleton sitting behind the table. Weeds and algae grew in his eye sockets, and several swimming fishes darted in and out of his ribs.
At this moment, Lin Beichen seemed to have traveled through a hundred years.
