Lin Shan's suggestion was indeed the best of both worlds, but Murong Bo was a little hesitant after hearing it.
At this time, Lao Kan next to him said: "Brother Lin, Huangmai is a very dangerous place. Although the children of the Murong family have great skills, the risk is still too great."
"Don't you have Mr. Kan to lead the way?
Besides, no matter what you do, there are risks.
Even sometimes the greater the risk, the greater the reward.”
Lin Shan smiled faintly and looked at Murong Bo.
Murong Bo nodded and said: "What Master Lin said makes sense.
Well, in that case, let Master Lin select a few talented disciples from my Murong family and let them accompany you into the wilderness, which can be considered a kind of experience."
"Don't worry, old gentleman, I will protect them."
Lin Shan said.
Lao Kan was silent for a moment and didn't say anything more. After all, both parties involved agreed.
"Then I would like to thank Master Lin here first."
Murong Bodao.
Lin Shan waved his hands and said: "With the friendship between master and apprentice, we are a family, so Mr. Murong doesn't need to be polite.
By the way, old gentleman, on the way here, I heard Miss Jiu talk about the Desolate Vein and the Chaos Forbidden Zone. You must know more about these two places, right?"
Murong Bo picked up the tea cup and took a sip of water, then slowly put it down while saying: "Speaking of Huangmai, there may be no one who knows it better than Lao Kan. When the time comes for you and your group to go there, Lao Kan will tell you.
Let me just talk about this Chaos Forbidden Zone."
"I'm all ears."
Linshan Gong Gongshou Tao.
Murong Bo stroked his beard and thought for a while, then said: "Speaking of the Chaos Forbidden Zone, our earliest records can be traced back to more than two thousand years ago.
It is said that at that time the whole world was in a state of great chaos, with frequent wars, constant natural disasters, volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, tsunamis, hurricanes and hail, etc., happening almost in turn."
"Human beings feel that this world is going to be destroyed, and mankind is going to be destroyed.
But suddenly one day, thunder and sky fire suddenly fell from the nine heavens, igniting the entire sky. Some people vaguely saw human-like creatures fighting behind this strange phenomenon of heaven and earth."
"This scene lasted for more than a month. Just when people were in panic, the vision suddenly disappeared, peace returned to heaven and earth, and even all kinds of natural disasters disappeared.
Immediately afterwards, people discovered that the area covered by the thunder and sky fire had turned into a state of chaos, shrouded in fog all day long, making it invisible and inaccessible to humans."
"But since then, the world has been peaceful, even the weather has been smooth, wars have stopped, and humankind has begun a stage of great development.
As human beings began to live a prosperous life, they naturally had the energy to explore that chaotic area, but after many generations of exploration, no one knew what was going on inside."
"All those who explored the chaotic area either died or disappeared mysteriously, and some were even unable to get close.
Records say that when some people get close to that place, they will become dizzy and bleed from their seven orifices, and some people will faint and fall to the ground.
Gradually, people knew that the place was dangerous, so no one went there, so it was called the Chaos Forbidden Zone."
"In modern times, science began to develop. Human beings invented satellites, radars, and airplanes. However, no matter from high altitude or on the ground, it is still impossible to approach the chaotic restricted area.
When the plane gets close, it will automatically shut down, and even birds will not dare to approach the restricted area."
"Of course, with so many people in this world, there is no shortage of adventurous explorers. Every year there are explorers who want to enter the chaotic area from all aspects of sea, land and air to unlock its secrets.
But no one has succeeded. In recent years, although there are still scientists studying the Chaos Forbidden Zone, obviously very few have died because everyone knows that this place is impossible to enter.
The name of the restricted area is well deserved!”
After hearing these words, Lin Shan became more and more interested in this restricted area.
Murong Bo also said that there are signs of battle hidden behind the thunder and sky fire. This sounds a bit like the scene of a battle between cultivators.
Of course, these narratives are only unofficial historical records, and may even be fabricated by people's imagination based on the visions of heaven and earth.
But no matter what, the Chaos Forbidden Zone is a mysterious area that humans cannot touch.
And such a place is likely to hide secrets that ordinary people cannot reach.
After staying at Murong's house for two days, Lin Shan selected four disciples, two men and two women, who were suitable for alchemy. They all paid homage to Lin Shan.
The Murong family also pulled Lin Shan onto their chariot.
With this relationship, we are considered one of our own.
In the past two days, the Murong family was seizing the time to prepare supplies for Huangmai and his party, and the main person in charge was of course Kan Ye.
He said he needed to bring whatever he needed, and the Murong family went to prepare it. The preparations were extremely comprehensive and complete.
On the third day after arriving at Murong's house, Murong Bo found Lin Shan again and said, "Master Lin, your travel equipment has been prepared. I plan to let you leave quietly tonight while the night is dark and the wind is high."
"What happened?"
Lin Shan frowned and asked.
Let’s just go. Why choose a night time? Do you have a guilty conscience?
Murong Bo smiled bitterly and said: "You don't know something, but dozens of families have gathered in this wooden city now, and more people are coming.
I'm worried that if we delay any longer, you won't be able to leave."
"Are these people coming for the treasure house?"
Lin Shan asked.
Murong Bo said: "I am coming for the treasure house, but I am also coming for you."
"At me?
What the old gentleman means is that they know that I refined the Yang Huan Dan?"
Lin Shan's expression became solemn.
Murong Bo nodded and said: "That should be the case.
Fortunately, they are just spies here now, so they don't dare to cause trouble in my Murong family's territory, but when a large group of people arrive and they unite, even my Murong family won't dare to offend the public."
"Has the secret of the bronze mirror been cracked?"
Lin Shan asked again.
"not yet.
But I will have someone help you.
Fu'er!"
Murong Bo called out, and then, the man who had been by his side all year round, so silent that people could not even feel his presence, came over and bowed his hand to Lin Shan.
"Master Lin, this is my adopted son, his strength is much better than that of me.
This time I will let him lead the team to protect you in finding the treasure house."
Speaking of this, Murong Bo looked at Murong Fu and said with a serious expression: "Fu'er, we must ensure the safety of Master Lin!"
"Don't worry, foster father, I will protect Master Lin with my life!"
Murong Fu said.
"Thank you very much."
Lin Shan clasped his fists and then asked: "Old sir, I thought about it and took two disciples with me. As for the remaining two, I left the books for them and let them explore on their own first.
When we return in triumph, we will guide them properly."
However, Murong Bo waved his hand and said: "I understand the master's wishes! But the children of my Murong family are not afraid of death! They all have skills, and if they go with the master, they can also help. They should have gained experience."
