Chapter 32 Looting
Seeing the red line again was still so spectacular and shocking.
But Chen Lin's mood is different now.
On the one hand, I know the origin of the red thread, and on the other hand, I have a way to leave, and I am not so frightened.
However, even with Yu Yuehai's promise, it is still unknown whether the departure process will be smooth or not. After all, he relies on the foundation-building powerhouse, not himself.
In addition to being careful about being targeted again after cutting off the red line, the wilderness is not peaceful either. There are various monsters and unpredictable dangers.
When the other party is in danger, it is impossible to protect him with all his strength.
So, you still need to prepare some means of self-defense.
Time is tight and it is impossible to improve his cultivation, so he plans to refine more thunderbolt beads.
With the storage bag, the problem of carrying thunderbolt beads is solved. This thing is not good when used in small quantities, but once used in large quantities, it is very lethal to low-level monsters and Qi-training monks.
The key is that the raw materials are cheap and he can still afford them.
I didn’t know which day I would leave, so Chen Lin didn’t delay any longer and went straight to Inner City Fang City early the next morning.
Then he learned a shocking news.
Just last night, several shops in Fang City were looted, and countless treasures were stolen!
The city is now in chaos, and the city guards of the five major families are going door to door to interrogate the situation.
When Chen Lin saw this scene, he suddenly thought of what Yu Yuehai said yesterday. Is this the method the other party used to not leave empty-handed?
After a rough count, six stores were looted, two of which were of higher quality.
The money comes so fast!
"Why, you are tempted, do you want to search before leaving?"
At this time, a voice sounded from beside him, causing Chen Lin to wake up instantly.
"It turns out to be Fellow Daoist Ye, why are you here? Have you returned to Shuiyue Pavilion?"
When he saw it was Ye Jingyun, Chen Lin immediately raised his hand.
Seeing that there was no one around, he put his hand into his robe and fumbled around, preparing to take out the other person's things from the storage bag and hand them to him.
Unexpectedly, the other party gave him a look and then walked to a remote place.
“How was it, was it successful?”
After walking out of Fangshi, Ye Jingyun stopped and looked at Chen Lin with a nervous and expectant expression.
“Fortunately, I did not disgrace my life.”
Chen Lin took out the talisman and handed it to the other party.
Then he took out several other items one by one and handed them over reluctantly.
Actually, he also thought about deceiving the other party and saying that he didn't succeed, but after thinking about it, he still didn't do it.
On the one hand, he was afraid that the other party would have some special means to interrogate him. On the other hand, he always felt that the relationship between this woman and Yu Yuehai was not as close as it seemed.
If the guess is correct, it may be able to help him get rid of Yu Yuehai in the future.
Of course this is all speculation and baseless, but as long as there is a glimmer of possibility, it is worth a try.
"Yes, it was really made by you. Fellow Daoist Chen's luck is really extraordinary!"
Ye Jingyun took the talisman and looked at it, and was immediately pleasantly surprised.
However, she did not take a closer look. Instead, she took everything and put it into her storage bag. Then she stared at Chen Lin for a while and said, "Remember, don't let Yu Yuehai know about this matter. Don't ask why, you just Just know that this is good for you and me.”
After that, the other party said. He also warned: "The city may be very chaotic in the past few days. You should stay at home and not come out. Although Yu Yuehai asked me to follow you secretly, I also have some things to do." "Ah, okay, Okay.”
Chen Lin agreed hurriedly.
At the same time, he also solved his doubts in his heart. It turned out that Yu Yuehai did not let the other party leave it alone, but left it to the other party to keep an eye on him.
If he really seeks refuge with the five major families, he will inevitably learn another lesson.
But one doubt was solved, and another, bigger doubt arose.
Why does the other party say this to me, and what is the purpose?
This time the other party didn't even call Yu Yuehai his senior brother, but called him by his first name. Was it an unintentional move or was he intentionally expressing something to him?
Looking at Ye Jingyun’s disappearing figure, Chen Lin’s eyes became dark.
...
Now that he had been reminded, Chen Lin stopped wandering around and hurriedly bought some things before preparing to return.
Now that supplies are extremely scarce, it is impossible to buy good things, and he has no purchasing power.
There are still some powerful talismans and fireball talismans, but the value is too low and not many spiritual stones can be sold.
The Enlightenment Pill can be refined at any time, but it is a pity that if it is sold with a pretense, it will definitely be considered a liar.
As for the Chu Yuan Dan, there were only three left. He kept them for himself to avoid selling them, so as not to get into trouble.
"Fellow Daoist Chen, what a coincidence!"
While walking, a familiar figure suddenly stood in front of him.
"Is it you?"
Chen Lin was surprised, but he didn't expect to meet the other person again.
Thin and malnourished, it was Xu Ruolan.
He did not believe that this was a chance encounter, and said expressionlessly: "Fellow Taoist Xu came to see me again for something. Please explain in advance that the elixir is sold, but there will be no refund."
Xu Ruolan His face darkened, but he immediately squeezed out a smile and said, "Fellow Taoist, you're worried too much. I'm here to find you. I want to trade with fellow Taoist again."
Chen Lin stared at the other party and said, "What kind of deal?"
Although this woman is not high in cultivation, There are a lot of treasures on him, and he took advantage of the first two transactions, so he can't help but look forward to it.
"Of course it's still the elixir."
Xu Ruolan looked around and continued after seeing that no one was there: "Yesterday I used the two elixirs from my fellow Taoist, but I was still a little short of a breakthrough. So I want to exchange another one from fellow Taoist.”
Both of them failed to break through?
Chen Lin grinned, his qualifications are not as good as his!
After pondering for a moment, he nodded, "I do still have some elixirs here, but it's the last one. I originally kept it for myself. Since my fellow Taoist is in urgent need, I won't hesitate to sell it to you. Okay.”
"But you also know that something like this happened in the market today. It will be impossible to buy elixirs in the future, and the price will not be too low."
Stop talking first to avoid the other party selling badly. Gain sympathy.
Xu Ruolan was about to speak when her demeanor suddenly changed. She raised her chin arrogantly, squinted and sneered: "Who am I, fairy? If something leaks out between your fingers, it will last you half a lifetime. How can I help you?" I will take advantage of you!”
Chen Lin’s eyes flashed slightly.
The other party never showed any 'symptoms' during the last contact. He thought that the other party also had some special method to block the control of the red line. Now it seems that he is overthinking it.
"Very good, then let me see what treasures Taoist friends use to trade with me, but to be clear, I don't need spiritual stones. I only accept barter."
The current city Supplies are extremely scarce, and even with spirit stones, he can't buy good things. Moreover, compared to spirit stones, what he covets more is the treasures on the other party's body.
