Chen Lin looked at the haggard old cultivator in front of him, suppressed his excitement and asked.
Because he does not allow Shang Xuelian and others to use coercive means, few normal monks are willing to take risks in scenes with extremely high mortality rates like the Guardian Hut Village. They are all old monks with a short life span.
However, the other party's cultivation level is really not low. He is actually an early stage Golden Elixir monk, but his lifespan is really short.
"Reporting to your lord, the villain Shen Jinyuan is from Lukami Island."
The old cultivator was respectful and his tone was very calm. After all, he was a Golden elixir cultivator, and his state of mind was much stronger than that of Qi training and foundation building.
Chen Lin didn't pay attention to these, he just asked casually, and then said: "Tell me everything that happened in the scene, don't miss anything!"
"yes."
Shen Jinyuan responded and began to describe slowly.
"After I projected into the nightmare world, I appeared in a place full of dried fish. There was a little boy who looked like a fish. He told me that I needed to catch ten fish in the pond before I could leave, otherwise I would be killed.
Throw it into a pond and turn into a fish.
I followed Senior Shang's instructions and told the little boy that I was sent by you to find out more about Niuniu Village Chief. The other boy suddenly became furious and said that I was lying and that I could not complete the fishing mission and only needed ten nightmares.
The coins can exempt you from punishment, but I have to deal with it at the top, which requires 10,000 nightmare coins."
As the other party spoke, Chen Lin slowly frowned.
If one goes by what the other party said, it seems that the little fish doesn't remember him.
There is another possibility, that is, the other party had some conflict with Niu Niu, so he deliberately made things difficult.
"Then how did you get out?"
He asked further.
Shen Jinyuan immediately said: "My lord, I don't know. When I was young, I was taught by a stranger and got a soul fishing method, so I was lucky enough to complete the task. After I completed the task, the fish-headed monster didn't give me any trouble.
I rejected that scene."
"Soul fishing?"
Chen Lin glanced at the other party and said, "Show it, let me see."
After that, he led the other party to the edge of the island.
Shen Jinyuan did not dare to neglect, and flew up to float on the sea. Then his soul power surged, and a black line fell into the sea. He couldn't breathe, so he pulled hard, and a snow-white fish without scales struggled to be pulled.
Come up.
He stretched out his hand to catch the white fish, came to Chen Lin, and held it up with both hands.
Chen Lin did not answer, but nodded.
The other party did use his soul to catch the fish.
This secret technique can be said to be useless and cannot be used at ordinary times, but unexpectedly, at a critical moment, it saved the other party's life and allowed him to get information feedback.
Therefore, if any magical power can be created, it must be meaningful.
After making sure that the other party was not lying, Chen Lin asked again: "In that courtyard, could you have seen the situation outside the courtyard?"
"Sir, the place I entered was not a courtyard, but a dark space with many ponds, and the rest were all dried fish."
"Not the yard?"
Chen Lin was startled.
If it's not a courtyard, then it's not in Guardian Cottage Village.
Could it be that something happened to that small village and those little guardians have already left there?
"Then have you asked the question I asked you?"
After thinking for a while and coming up with nothing, Chen Lin did not hesitate and continued to ask.
He had previously explained that no matter which explorer encounters a creature in the nightmare world that he can communicate with, he must ask some questions that he cares about.
"asked."
Shen Jinyuan answered hurriedly.
Then he said: "I asked all the questions asked by Senior Shang, but the fish-headed monster only answered one, saying that once the guardian dies, the scene guarded by the guardian will also disappear."
The corner of Chen Lin's mouth twitched.
This was really bad news. Of all his worries, he least wanted to be confirmed.
The food island is gone!
This scene meant far more to him than anything else. He didn't expect it to be destroyed by his own hands. If he had known this, it would have been better not to complete any title tasks and to develop there honestly as a base.
Unfortunately, there is no regret medicine in the world, and he does not have the ability to change the past and the future.
"Okay, you did a good job. Here is a life-extending elixir that can extend your life for a hundred years. It is an extra reward from me. If you can find out the information I need in that salted fish scene, there will be more
Reward you."
After another exchange, and after confirming that everything was correct, Chen Lin took out a life-extending elixir and handed it to the other party.
The rest of the rewards are still distributed normally. This is to encourage the other party to continue exploring the salted fish scene.
When Shen Jinyuan heard that it was a life-extending pill that could directly extend his life by a hundred years, his eyes suddenly flashed with light, and he could no longer suppress the joy in his heart.
He risked his own death and traveled thousands of miles to come here just to fight for his fate.
One hundred years, although it is not enough for him to cultivate to the realm of Yuanying, but it also gives him a chance to breathe. And if Mr. Chen can take out a hundred-year longevity pill casually, there must be a better one, as long as he can get more
With great achievements, there is hope of returning to the path!
In fact, he had a pretty good idea.
Chen Lin not only has Baishou Pill, but also Thousand Life Pill, and is even deducing the feasibility of refining Wanshou Pill.
The principle of this life-extending elixir is similar, except that the raw materials are difficult to find. As long as the materials are found, with the blessing of innate abilities, it is not impossible to refine them.
The reason why I study this is naturally to use the colorful disk.
He probably has no hope of mastering the rules of life. He can only use life-extending elixirs to enhance the source of life and satisfy the consumption of longevity by the colorful disk.
Back on the island, Chen Lin was in a daze in the cave.
There was feedback on the salted fish scene, but he couldn't be happy. The news he got made him worried.
Niuniu's condition must have not improved, otherwise with the other party's strength, it would be impossible to lose control of the Guardian Hut Village.
The worst possibility is that the other party has died!
Chen Lin couldn't accept this result and immediately started to speculate on fate, but unfortunately there was no result.
Most of the speculations about the nightmare world were unresponsive, and some were ambiguous, so he was very afraid of exploring the nightmare world.
However, he felt that Xiao Yu'er might not have rebelled. The information Shen Jinyuan brought back was most likely disclosed by the other party on his own initiative. Otherwise, he would not have answered so many questions and the other party would have answered this one specifically.
Could it be hinting at something?
Could it be that something happened to Niuniu and she needed help, but she couldn't tell her directly?
Thinking of this, Chen Lin suddenly lost his mood and called Shen Jinyuan over again.
"What are your orders, sir?"
Shen Jinyuan was a little worried, worried that Chen Lin would kill the donkey and kill people to silence him.
However, it was not what he thought. Chen Lin packed the black object obtained by killing the food guardian and some origin balls in the nightmare box and handed them to the opponent.
"You'll have to work hard again. Take these two things to the salted fish scene, offer them to the fish-headed monster, and see what the other person's reaction is."
After finishing the explanation, he added: "Don't worry, since you have completed the mission there, you don't have to worry about being trapped. The benefits will be indispensable for you when you come back. I have a way for you to hit the Nascent Soul Realm within a hundred years."
Shen Jinyuan hesitated for a moment.
He knew that there must be danger, otherwise why didn't Mr. Chen go in?
But he also knew that he had no room for refusal. The other party seemed to be negotiating with him, but in fact he had no choice but to agree.
"Yes, I will obey your Majesty's decree!"
Shen Jinyuan clasped his fists and agreed.
Chen Lin nodded slightly, then asked Shang Xuelian to bring the salted fish, and stood aside, watching Shen Jinyuan's projection into the nightmare world.
