Cautiously Cultivating Immortality in a Strange World

Chapter 841: Task

Views:

To Chen Lin's surprise, the girl in green heard his request and without any hesitation, she gently shook the hand holding Huang Xing's hand, and a yellow light flew out from the painting.

He didn't have to grab it himself, the yellow light fell directly into his hand, and it turned out to be a big key.

The key was half a foot long, and the structure on it was not complicated, with only a few teeth of different heights, and an orange color, the same as the lock on the courtyard gate.

Chen Lin was slightly stunned, and immediately wrapped his palm with his innate power to prevent any abnormality from occurring.

But nothing happened. The key material was similar to the big lock, and there was no energy fluctuation.

"Thank you, Sir Constable, for accepting my mission. According to the Magic Law, my heirloom will be yours after you complete the mission! If the mission fails, you must pay compensation with treasures of equal value. If you breach the contract and abandon the mission, you must pay ten times the compensation. If you cannot pay compensation, you will be punished by the rules."

The voice of the girl in the painting sounded.

At the same time, in Chen Lin's astonished eyes, the other party actually stood up from the boat. Without the previous playful look, he bowed to him solemnly.

Chen Lin thought to himself that this was not good, and immediately said in a deep voice: "When did I agree to accept your mission? Don't lie!"

At this time, this thing must make its attitude clear and must not let the other party force the task on it.

But the girl in the painting ignored Chen Lin's questioning and said to herself, "You are an official. Huang Batian dare not attack you without authorization. According to the law of the devil, attacking an official is a serious crime. You don't have to bear any responsibility even if you execute him on the spot. You can just reveal your identity and go to the county government office."

After a pause, she said in a weak voice, "I'll give the key to you, sir. The evil guys outside must have sensed it. Time is running out. Please go to the county government quickly. Everything depends on you. I will never forget your life-saving grace..."

The girl's voice gradually faded, and then the scroll flashed and the colors on it dimmed.

At this time in the scroll, the girl in green was sitting in the cabin again, her posture and position were the same as before, but she no longer had her spirit, and there was no small box of food in her hands.

Chen Lin's face became uncertain.

He stared at the scroll and tried to communicate with the girl in green, but there was no response.

Looking at the key in his hand and then at the scroll, Chen Lin frowned.

He didn't know whether the girl in green was bluffing or forcing the task on him, but even if she really did, he didn't care.

Since he had to go to the county government, it was acceptable for him to redress the other party's grievances while he was there.

In addition, he had already prepared himself mentally. There were missions in every scene of the demon world, and it was not uncommon for missions to appear. If one did not come in his true form and did not complete the mission, he would even die if he left.

Even now he is still not sure whether the real body will be restricted in entering or leaving in some ordinary scenes, so no matter whether it is entering through a node or a projection, as long as it is a scene of the demon world, he must first find an old cultivator to explore it before he can feel at ease.

So this result is not the worst.

The task has been found. If it is completed, you will not be restricted from leaving when you project in next time.

Chen Lin weighed the key again.

The choice now is whether to explore outside the hospital immediately, or to leave temporarily and come back after some preparation, or simply let someone else complete the task on his behalf.

Thought about it.

Chen Lin felt that letting someone else take over was not a feasible option.

There was only one second-level pass, and he was worried about letting others use it. It would be troublesome if it was lost. He wouldn't even be able to leave the yard, and the mission would surely fail.

Furthermore, he had to upgrade the pass and hand in the weapons of the Tianluo people, which he had to do personally. Moreover, the task was assigned to him as a errand boy, so it was hard to say whether it would be effective if someone else took his place.

The most important point was that he was worried that once he left this node, he would be judged to have abandoned the mission, which would be terrible. He had no idea what the heirloom of the girl in green was. If the level was too high, the double penalty could not be taken out, and the rule penalty would be fatal.

"Now that we are here, let's make the best of it and see what the situation is outside first."

He muttered something in his heart, and with a thought, he summoned Hua Ruyu in. Seeing the other person's figure appear, Chen Lin couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

He was really afraid that the mission restrictions would prevent him from summoning the other party.

The strength of his servant is much higher than his, especially in the demon world. Even if his strength has increased dramatically now, he cannot catch up with the other party. With the other party around, safety will be much improved.

"Owner!"

Seeing that Chen Lin was not in danger, Hua Ruyu put away her magical powers that were ready to be used.

Chen Lin immediately explained the situation in detail, and then asked: "What do you think should be done?"

The other party is not like Xiaocao, who is a taciturn person. Although he has no memory of his past life, he has a quick mind and can often give pertinent suggestions.

"There is no other way. We can only carry out the mission according to the mission content. The mission of the demon world is the embodiment of the rules. We cannot fight against such powerful rules."

After listening to this, Hua Ruyi frowned and spoke.

Chen Lin nodded, "In that case, let's go outside the courtyard and take a look!"

After saying that, he walked out of the room.

In fact, there are still some questions. For example, the keyhole of the gate changes direction, which means someone must have come in or out. And Huang Batian is bullying others by taking advantage of his power, but whose power is he taking advantage of

In addition, was the node in that room formed naturally or created by the girl in the painting? Was the writing on the wall outside the node left by the other party

There are many doubts, but the scroll seems to have consumed too much energy and has lost its spirituality. I can't ask any questions even if I want to. I can only take it one step at a time.

The two arrived at the gate. Chen Lin asked Hua Ruyu to be prepared to meet the enemy, and then inserted the key into the keyhole.

Kada.

The lock inside made a crisp sound and the big lock was opened successfully.

Chen Lin directly put the padlock and key into the storage bag of the Demon Realm, and tried to see if he could take them out. Then he turned his wrist, took out the Green Ivy Shield and the Embroidered Knife, got into a defensive posture, and gently opened the door with his hands.

"Crackling, dripping, chirping, wa-wa-wa..."

A burst of firecrackers and cheerful suona sounds rang out in the ears, mixed with the chirping singing of the opera troupe on the stage.

It’s so lively.

Chen Lin thought of many situations, but he could never imagine it would be such a scene. His face suddenly changed. He closed the door again, took out the padlock and locked it with a click.

All sounds disappeared, as if the door separated two worlds.

However, since the second-level road is effective, it means that it is still within the same scene, and the sound shielding should be the isolating effect of the forbidden power here.

"Master, what should I do?"

Hua Ruyu didn't expect such a scene and didn't know what to do for a moment.

Chen Lin's face changed. This scene, which was similar to a wedding procession, made him think of some bad things. He was worried that King Xuanyin was here.

On second thought, I felt that I was worrying too much. The girl in green just said that this place was Zhiwu County, and the one who bullied their family was Liang Batian. It was obviously not the same scene as King Xuanyin, and he did not turn into a woman as soon as he came in.

Thinking of this, he made up his mind and said, "There is no other way. We can only go out and take a look. Follow my instructions and don't act on your own."

After giving some instructions, Chen Lin unlocked the door again and opened it.

Today, he is no longer the helpless minion he used to be. With his means and powerful soul, even King Xuanyin cannot leave him powerless to fight back. As long as he is careful and does not violate the rules, there should be no problem.

As the door opened, the noisy sound came into my ears again.

Chen Lin looked carefully and found that it was indeed a wedding scene.

Not only were there the sound of firecrackers and the sound of drums and music, there was also a big red sedan chair. Next to it was an old man with wrinkles all over his face, riding a tall horse, with a big red flower hanging on his chest.

"Hehehe, Li Fuyao, don't be so shy. As long as you obey me, I will forgive your parents' past. Otherwise, you and your family will hide in that exquisite map forever and never get out. Don't even think about unlocking your parents' seal!"

When I saw the door open, the old man with a red flower on his head made a sound like a drake, which made people feel uncomfortable.

"Hey, that's not right, why is there a man here, who are you!"
