Lu Chen squinted his eyes slightly, feeling somewhat amused.
Now that he's here, he'll make peace with it. He wants to see what kind of identity and background this old man has, what kind of strength he has, and how amazing the map he makes will be.
The eyes of the old man and the young man collided slightly in the air. In the end, neither of them said anything, and there were no sparks in their eyes.
…
Time passed little by little, and it was the evening of the third day.
It turns out that a certain inconspicuous grocery store on Jiqing Street, which is bustling with traffic, has been closed for three days. However, no one really noticed or asked about it during these three days.
It is unclear whether no one really cared, or whether someone had specifically explained it and no one came to bother.
In a secret room in the store, luminous gems glowed faintly.
An old man lowered his head and carefully made a map in his hand, while sitting next to him was a young man who was concentrating with his eyes closed.
At this moment, the young man slowly opened his eyes. He looked at Lao Tzu who was carefully making a map with his head bowed. He looked at his white hair, but a look of solemnity flashed in his eyes.
This was definitely not something Lu Chen was making a fuss about. Instead, he saw the old man making maps day and night for three consecutive days, and the way he made maps was absolutely different from ordinary people. The old man opened his mouth and asked him for five hundred thousand.
He has a high-grade magic stone. This map was drawn by him with the power of the magic soul. He holds a black pen made of a special soul power stone in his hand.
During these three days, the old man used his demon soul power to draw the map day and night, and even now, his palms are still steady and strong without any trembling or weakness.
Lu Chen did not disturb him, but slowly glanced around the secret room. He was more and more amazed in his heart, the true identity of this old man must not be simple.
Just when Chase Lu carefully scanned everything in the secret room, the old man suddenly said: "Okay."
The old man's voice was as steady and powerful as ever, and his words were gentle. He didn't look like someone who had gone without rest or food or water for three days and three nights in a row, and he didn't look like an old man.
Lu Chen glanced lazily at the map in the old man's hand, blinked slightly, and then reached out to take it.
At this look, Lu Chen's eyes suddenly solidified.
"This..." Lu Chen carefully held the map with slightly trembling palms. His demonic soul power had just triggered the map. He instantly felt a vivid and vast Northern Wilderness.
Lu Chen moved his mind slightly, and the words "Fenglin Pavilion" appeared in his mind. Countless little red dots suddenly appeared on the map. He clicked on a small red dot at will. The place immediately zoomed in.
The name directly revealed is Qinglang City. There is a singing girl's shop in the city. This is where a branch of Maple Forest Pavilion used to be. Although the needle is good now, there is still some strength left.
With his heart beating hard, Lu Chen swallowed hard and tried hard to suppress the ecstasy in his heart, hoping not to let the old man see it. He tried several places in succession, such as: thinking in his heart
Take a look at the largest tavern in Wuque City. The map was quickly displayed. The most detailed information even included the kitchen, toilets, and guest rooms inside the tavern. There were also clear map locations.
Lu Chen suddenly felt his heart beat violently for a few times. With a touch of ecstasy in his eyes, he drew out the power of the demon soul and checked the map carefully. There was no other unfavorable stuff in it.
Such as peeking into some hidden demonic soul power.
Now Lu Chen was even more satisfied. Whether the old man did not do anything because he was afraid of the power of his demon soul, or for other reasons. Lu Chen was very grateful to him for his careful preparation of the map.
No matter what, this map is a big treasure for Lu Chen.
After a while, Lu Chen squinted his eyes slightly and took a deep breath. His eyes were filled with unconcealable ecstasy. For him, encountering such a map in the northern wilderness was no less than a dream.
It was a guiding light. However, what Lu Chen had to do next was to verify the authenticity of this map.
This old man is so powerful that Chase Lu doesn't trust him completely.
"Thank you so much." Lu Chen was uncharacteristically not as proud as he had been threatening him before. Instead, he gave a deep salute to the old man.
Anyway, it took three days to make the map. Lu Chen could see how hard the old man worked. Whether it was the old man's seriousness or his satisfaction with the map, Lu Chen was willing to sincerely thank him.
The old man's always calm face could not help but twitch his beard slightly because of Lu Chen's bow.
Lu Chen neatly took out the remaining 400,000 high-grade magic stones from the Lord of the Rings and handed them to the old man.
Lu Chen turned around and was about to leave, but the old man behind him suddenly spoke.
"Haha, little brother, wait a moment."
"What?" Lu Chen frowned and said.
"Hey, little brother, you are very cool. When you come here, do you also want to participate in the recruitment of the city lord?" The old man said with a smile.
"The city lord's recruitment?"
Lu Chen was stunned. He had heard this word many times since entering the city. However, his target was Maple Grove Pavilion, and he was not interested in recruiting city lords at all, so he did not study it in detail. He did not expect that the old man now
He actually asked directly.
Seeing Lu Chen like this, the old man was stunned and said in astonishment: "Little brother, don't you even know this?"
The old man's cloudy eyes flashed slightly. He thought that Lu Chen, who was so powerful and distinguished, would come here just to recruit the city lord, but he didn't expect that he didn't seem to know anything.
"I just arrived in Beihuang recently, boss, can you tell me about this?" Lu Chen said with interest. No matter what, Maplewood Pavilion has residual forces here. What does the city chief want to do? So Maplewood Pavilion's forces
It's uncertain whether he will participate, so Lu Chen is still a little interested in this matter and wants to know, maybe this can also be a breakthrough.
"Don't you know, we have a strange snow mountain here. The top of the mountain is covered with snow all year round, but there is a huge hole at the top. This hole is usually covered by thick ice, and every thousand years this hole will open.
, there are endless volcanoes inside.”
At this point, the old man's eyes flashed slightly, and then he continued: "But what is strange is that people who jump into this volcano, if they are lucky enough to come out, can be promoted regardless of their level of behavior. As for what is inside this cave?
What is so weird but no one knows? Did someone know this secret accidentally? Or was there a man who wanted to commit suicide thousands of years ago and jumped into the crater of the volcano? Who knows that not only did he not die, but he was waiting for someone to escape from the volcano.
After coming out, the demonic energy in my body will be even stronger."
"And this is not the strangest thing. The strangest thing is that the crater has only been open for a month. But the people who come out of it may not necessarily come out of the crater. They may come out of other places in the snow-capped mountains, waiting for them.
When it comes out again, it may have been five, ten or even a hundred years."
Looking at Lu Chen's calm face, he scratched
The old man chuckled. He sighed secretly in his heart. It seems that the young man in front of him is indeed not simple. Ordinary people's eyes will turn green whenever they hear about improving their strength. Especially not many young people like them can calm down.
He was angry, but he didn't expect the young man in front of him to be calm.
"I wonder why the city lord is recruiting?" Lu Chen asked calmly.
What the old man was talking about was this strange treasure, and he didn't mention the city lord at all. The old man actually mentioned this place, so the recruitment of the city lord must be related to this place. Once such a good place is discovered, it will inevitably be fought over by big forces, and
The city lord must be the most powerful in Wuque City.
Chase Lu blinked his eyes, and he had actually guessed it. The city lord must have recruited these people because he felt comfortable with this place.
When the old man heard Lu Chen ask this, his eyes darkened. Generally, young people who are not familiar with the world will not think of other places as long as they hear that this place can help improve their strength.
"Whether it is the realm of the Demon King, the realm of half of the Tribulation Realm, or the realm above the Tribulation Realm, as long as these demons come to this place, they can help people improve their strength. Some people can even improve by 10% after they come out.
Because of its strength, this place has also attracted a steady stream of people, who come here to compete for it every thousand years. Now that place is almost crowded with people from all over the place, and the entrance to the cave will be opened in half a month... We, the city lord
The reason for recruiting many powerful demons to enter is not only to compete for the right to enter and fight, but also to explore what magical secrets there are here."
Hearing this? Lu Chen couldn't help but look curious: "Fighting for the right to enter? What's going on?"
"This is also a strange aspect of this place. Although it can admit people and help people improve their strength, only a thousand people can enter at a time. Those who follow will be ejected directly." The old man chuckled.
, said to Lu Chen: "I think your strength is quite strong, little brother. Why don't you go in and give it a try? If you can get the first thousand people to go in and have a look, it will be a life in vain. Of course, the best thing is to go through our city lord."
Recruitment, then you will directly be the representative of our Wuque City. If you find anything inside, you will be the hero of our Wuque City. When the time comes, you will become a guest. No matter where you are walking in the north, if you say it, it will not only be
It is an honorable thing, and you will be treated with three points of courtesy."
"Hehe, but the mountain range I mentioned is extremely vast, and there are many high-level monsters in it. If you want to go there, little brother, you can buy a more detailed map from me. This map about this mountain range not only has specific details,
What guarantees exist in each place, what precious membranes should be marked, and where high-level magic beasts rest. With only 50,000 high-grade magic stones, with the help of the map, you will definitely be able to gain a lot." The old man chuckled and finally said
He exposed his fox tail, "And our place is actually under the jurisdiction of the City Lord's Mansion. We are related to the City Lord. I have a gold medal here. You can use it to register directly at the City Lord's Mansion. You can directly register with the City Lord's Mansion."
He is a member of the command of our Lord of Wuque City, so he doesn’t have to go through the trouble of passing the assessment and participating in recruitment.”
Hearing this, Chase Lu raised his eyebrows and asked, "Then how much is this gold medal worth?"
Accepting the old man's words, Lu Chen naturally believed it. If the city lord's recruitment was really for this matter, then it is no wonder that the people in the city were very interested and excited.
