After getting enough information, Fang Linyan set off.
When walking to Wa City, Fang Linyan took a look at the rankings and found that Noah Space No. S was even pushed to the sixth position. Because of this, Fang Linyan was also able to judge the actions of the joint team staying in the Arctic Circle.
It didn't go well.
After all, ten hours have passed now. If Qiansi Cave is successfully captured, even Li Chi's people will seize most of the loot, but the aboriginals do not have such things as soul beads, so they can only be used by the space warriors present.
Obtain.
Therefore, if they really succeed, then S Noah Space will not be able to fall to the sixth position.
"My choice is indeed correct. The Qiansi Cave place has indeed become a useless place, or a quagmire. It doesn't make much sense to stay there."
At this time, while on the road, Fang Linyan began to miss his pair of "walking with shame" endlessly. Its passive speed increase saved him so much trouble! And it was also produced in this world.
Soon, Fang Linyan arrived at a pawn shop. Under normal circumstances, the pawn shop usually closed in the afternoon before it got dark.
However, this pawn shop is a bit special, because it is adjacent to the Wa City, so it is next to a gambling house, and the customers of the gambling house often want to find some ways to cash out when they lose money.
This is the time for pawnshops to come out and extract profits.
Therefore, the opening hours of this pawn shop are the same as those of the casino. After Fang Linyan arrived at this pawn shop called "Sanjiang", he walked in with a thought and found that Lao Chaofeng at the counter was already drowsy.
After Fang Linyan coughed, the old man suddenly woke up, stood up quickly and said in an old voice:
"A guest is here. Please sit in front."
At this time, the pawn shop already had the prototype of later generations of banks to receive customers. Chaofeng received customers sitting on a high stool, with a counter with a thick wooden fence in the middle. This was of course to prevent poor and crazy customers from taking risks.
Fang Linyan looked around and found that there were two paintings and calligraphy hanging on the wall of the pawn shop, which was not unusual. On the other side was a camel hair blanket. The bright colors of red and yellow together gave it a strong desert style.
.
Not only that, there are also plain porcelains placed on the table next to it. All this shows that the specifications of this pawn shop are still good, so there should be no big problem with the eyesight of its ministers. Otherwise, it will not be able to maintain the current pawn shop.
of decency.
The old man glanced at Fang Linyan and said:
"What's the guest's last name?"
At this time, Fang Linyan didn't want to say anything more. He had a legend, and he came here just to test the waters and explore the road. There was no need to reveal his real name.
So he went straight to the point and took out the wax pill. Yes, it was the wax pill found from the collar of the young man's corpse. Then he was about to speak and asked how much this thing was worth.
.
However, Fang Linyan then thought about it, this is a pawn shop. It is said that every new coat is pawned with the words "Insects and birds will peck at the old rags" on the ticket! The court ministers here are all old foxes and human spirits. Face this by yourself.
This kind of people can be said to say more and make more mistakes, and to say less and make fewer mistakes.
So, he put back the words that came to his mouth again, sat down on the high stool in silence, then put the wax pill on the counter and pushed it gently.
Lao Chaofeng has been working in this industry for decades, who hasn't seen him?
Just steal the family heirloom and pawn it off, which will piss me off to death.
He took his crying wife and daughter to pawn, and then lost all the money in less than a moment of burning incense.
Chop off a finger and throw it on the counter to see how much money he can get...
Someone like Fang Linyan who doesn't say a word is really like a drizzle.
However, when he picked up the wax pill and looked at it with squinted eyes for a while, a look of surprise suddenly appeared on his face. Then he took out a polished crystal lens from his jacket and held it close to look at it carefully.
After a while, he raised his head nervously and said:
"Guest, your medicine has a wax seal on the outside. You must break the wax seal and let me smell it before I can give you a price for your medicine."
Fang Linyan raised his head and stretched out his hand:
"Give me the medicine and give me a needle."
Lao Chaofeng did as he was told, and Fang Linyan used a needle to make a small opening in the wax seal. In this way, the wax seal could be restored with a pinch, and at the same time, the smell of the elixir inside could be released.
To be honest, the smell is not pleasant, it’s fishy and smelly! It’s like the smell of sheep urine after it has been fermented for seven or eight days.
After the smell came out, although Fang Linyan almost wanted to vomit it out immediately, he resisted the temptation to keep his face paralyzed, then handed it to the front and continued to remain silent.
Lao Chaofeng actually came closer, took a closer look at the elixir, and then pinched the wax seal on the candle next to him again:
"Sir, the Foundation Establishment Pill you brought is not a top-grade product, and the heat was much lower during refining. Therefore, it can only be considered as a middle or lower level in the rating. The price I can give you
That’s one hundred and twenty taels.”
After Fang Linyan heard this, he suddenly felt enlightened:
"It turns out that this is a pill that allows ordinary people to practice Taoism. No wonder the scholar risked his own life and went back to get it! This thing can change his life!"
"Not only that, monsters have a keen sense of smell, and they should also be eager for similar elixirs, so the scholar doesn't dare to bet that the fish monster can't be found, so he can only choose to take risks!"
At this time, although many thoughts had passed through Fang Linyan's mind, he even felt that the trip was "worthwhile".
But he still had a dead face. At this time, Fang Linyan noticed a detail. After Lao Chaofeng collected the elixir, he did not hand it back again, but still held it in his own hand.
What does this mean? This old man has already regarded it as his own in his psychological tendency!
So he immediately understood the trick and said numbly:
"You can't seal it like this, the wax seal will break."
"How could it be broken?" Lao Chaofeng asked in astonishment.
Fang Linyan said:
"It's right there. If your eyesight is bad, bring it to me and point it out."
This old man was in his seventies, and his eyesight was certainly not very good. He must have lost confidence after being told this by Fang Linyan, so he immediately fell into the trap and handed over the wax pill again.
Then Fang Linyan kicked the wax pill directly into his arms, stood up and turned around to leave.
Lao Chaofeng was immediately taken aback, thinking that he had been tricked, and hurriedly said loudly:
"where are you going?"
Fang Linyan said calmly:
"Your price is too low, I won't sell it."
Lao Chao said anxiously:
"Then how much do you want?"
Fang Linyan directly raised a finger:
"One thousand taels."
The old man could only sigh and shake his head, and then immediately rang the bell next to him. After more than ten seconds, a man from the gambling shop next to him rushed over quickly:
"What's the matter?"
The old man walked out quickly and looked at Fang Linyan's back as he left and said:
"Gus, this is a fat fish and an outsider."
The man's eyes immediately lit up, he whistled, and then he followed. Two more men quickly rushed out of the gambling house and followed Gus out.
***
Fang Linyan quickly noticed the tracking behind him, but this made him feel more at ease. The more expensive this thing is, the higher the reward should be in the subsequent quest lines.
At this time, he also deliberately walked towards a secluded place, and soon came to an abandoned house in a narrow alley, and then disappeared into it.
Seeing that they had lost their way, Gus and the other two people did not care about hiding their figures. They hurriedly shouted and chased after them. Then they realized that the terrain inside the deserted house was complicated. After some discussion, they left a person to guard the door. Gu Si
Si and Bandang rushed in in such a hurry.
The two of them walked in for about ten meters when they suddenly saw a figure flashing past in front of them. Gus immediately took out a hammer from his waist and chased after him, shouting at the same time:
"Don't run away!"
Following the figure, Gus chased all the way, turning left and right, and came to a nearby woodshed. When he saw the broken door of the woodshed shaking slightly, he immediately laughed and kicked open the broken door and rushed in.
However, Gus saw that the woodshed was filled with dust and there were cobwebs everywhere. Although it was in the dark, he scanned the situation inside at a glance, but found no one.
At this time, the younger brother Hu Er who was chasing him shouted:
"Brother Chui, is there anyone?"
Gus shook his head and said:
"No, Hu Er, go over there and I'll search here."
Hu Er quickly walked to the side. Gus was about to leave when he suddenly heard a soft sound of "plop" coming from the corner next to him. He turned his head and squinted his eyes, and realized that under the moonlight, it was astonishingly...
A piece of silver!
Of course, if you are a wealthy person, you will definitely wonder why there is an extra piece of silver there, but Gus is just a thug in a gambling house, so he immediately went to pick it up happily.
Then, just as he turned around and bent over, a black shadow above him let go of his hand and fell down, directly pressing him down. Gus was shocked and resisted desperately.
However, the force pressing on him was so heavy that it was difficult for Gus to resist. He was about to scream for mercy, but the other party seemed to have anticipated his actions, and a chill went down his neck, and the cry was suddenly choked.
Inside the throat.
Then Gus felt a pain in his vest, and his heart was pierced from behind! Then he didn't know anything anymore.
Three minutes later, another thug who was waiting a little restlessly outside was also quietly dragged into the shadows. After more than ten seconds, Fang Linyan walked out with blood on his hands.
Killing these three people gave him two insights:
1. Armored Enemy is really easy to use!
2. These three guys actually gave him twenty soul beads?
Fang Linyan is now very sure that these three guys are casino thugs. Their strength is only average. Their fighting power can only beat two adult men at most.
According to the previous instructions, based on the combat power of a 16-year-old man in this world, a soul orb will be dropped.
These three guys dropped twenty soul beads. This is equivalent to saying in disguise that their personal combat power can actually be 1 vs. 6. This is not right. Obviously, in terms of soul beads, the space is mostly hidden.
What very crucial information!
Fang Linyan thought for a while, and then heard the distant bell. His heart suddenly moved. The other two goals of his trip were to investigate the origin of the three-cobalt pole and to return Tang Jinchan's relics.
They are all closely related to the Jinguang Temple here.
The monks in the monastery pay attention to the morning and evening classes. After the evening class, they ring the bell and then prepare to go to bed. Isn’t there a poem called: The bell rings at midnight to the passenger ship?
So if you want to visit Jinguang Temple, you have to hurry up. Although it is rude to disturb the monks before they sleep, it is still acceptable.
But if you wake someone up from under the covers, it goes without saying that the first impression will be a bad one.
Therefore, after Fang Linyan took care of the body a little, he quickly rushed towards Jinguang Temple.
The key is that the address of Jinguang Temple is also very easy to find. Just follow the pagoda that shines brightly in the night sky to find it. Therefore, in less than half an hour, Fang Linyan stood in front of the temple gate of Jinguang Temple.
As you can see, this place is quite grand. The square in front of the temple is very vast, covering an area of more than 100 acres. There are many people in the square worshiping Baoguang at a close distance, which makes them look very pious.
The entire Jinguang Temple has red walls and green tiles, the palace is majestic, and the frost bell is ringing far away. According to the stone tablet next to it, there are buildings such as the Mountain Gate, the Heavenly King's Hall, the Main Hall, the Octagonal Glaze Hall, the Sutra Tower, the Bell and Drum Tower, the Thousand Arms and Thousand Eyes Buddha, and other buildings.
Eminent monks, dignitaries, literati, envoys, and the general public come and go here; Buddhist services, tours, cultural entertainment, visits, and trade gather here.
At this time, everyone can see that in front of the temple gate, there are actually four warrior monks holding water and fire sticks standing outside the door, majestic, and a kind-looking Zhike monk standing next to him with a smile.
On the plaque above their heads, the seven characters "Edict to build the Jinguang Temple to protect the country" are shining brightly. After a second glance, you will even feel that there is an awe-inspiring momentum coming from it, and ordinary people will even have the urge to kneel down and worship.
However, there is a explanation for this imperial edict, indicating that this is a temple built by the royal family.
Fang Linyan was about to stride over at this time, but unexpectedly, his heart suddenly moved, and he walked towards a fortune-telling stall next to him.
The signboard of this fortune-telling stall originally said "Tiekou Straight Off", but in Fang Linyan's eyes, there was actually an additional symbol of ∞.
Although this symbol disappeared in a flash, Fang Linyan immediately knew that this should be a conscious existence in the nearby space. It was not convenient for the Mobius mark to appear directly, so he reminded himself of the "curve to save the country".
So, Fang Linyan simply walked to the fortune-telling stall and found that there was a word on the side that said the lottery was free and the interpretation was ten cents, so he directly reached into the fortune-telling tube. As a result, when he touched it, he found that one of the fortune-telling booths was obviously larger than the fortune-telling stall.
The rest is hotter, so obviously this is it.
Fang Linyan took it out and found that there was a small poem on it:
"In the fifth watch, Tian Xing fulfilled his vow of cultivation. He wanted to take something before he could give it to him, but he rolled up the Yellow River. There was thunder in the air, and it was hard for ghosts and gods to recognize him. He had no way to go. He was originally the real person."
Seeing Fang Linyan holding the sign in a daze, the stall owner came over with a smile on his face, obviously wanting to do a business of signing the sign.
However, Fang Linyan simply took out ten coins and gave it to him, then put the lotus stick back into the lotus holder and walked away. Then he found an inn and stayed there directly.
The verdict on the sign was incomprehensible, but in fact it was exactly what Fang Linyan felt.
The Möbius Mark didn't warn anyone earlier or later, so why did it make a noise at this critical moment when Fang Linyan was about to enter Jinguang Temple? Obviously, this indicated that Fang Linyan was about to make a bad move.
If you carefully study the contents of the signature, you will find that it is obvious that Fang Linyan can only get what he wants when he goes there at the fifth watch.
The fifth watch spans the time period from 3 to 5 o'clock in the morning. During this time period, it is best to go there when there is thunder, so that you can be unaware of anything and everything will be safe.
Obviously, since someone is helping cheat cheating, Fang Linyan must follow the good advice and do what he is told.
It was probably around ten o'clock in the evening, so Fang Linyan fell asleep after entering the hotel and woke up around two thirty in the morning. For him with the extra bonus, he could sleep for four and a half hours, which was enough for him under normal circumstances.
The next seven hours of sleep is enough.
Next, he practiced basic swordsmanship in the room for half an hour, and then he noticed a strong wind blowing outside the window, and the leaves outside were blown loudly. If it were daytime, the sky should be covered with dense clouds.
rain.
After Fang Linyan pondered for a while, he left a letter and a tael of silver on the hotel table. The content of the letter was very simple:
"In a clean and honest life, the world will be in great order. It will be passed down to the descendants and left to future generations. If you want to find out the basis of this article, please come to Jinguang Temple to inquire about Xie Wen (Fang Linyan's name in this world)."
Then he told the waiter on the envelope that he would deliver it to Meng Gu's son's house for one tael of silver for running errands, and he could also ask the host for another one tael of silver.
After arranging the follow-up measures, Fang Linyan continued to wait quietly. About half an hour later, he saw big drops of rain falling from the sky "pitter patter", and the first heavy raindrops fell.
There were even bursts of dust on the ground.
In the midst of the heavy rain, the glow on the pagoda of Jinguang Temple was still clear and bright. Suddenly, the glow also dimmed, and Fang Linyan opened his eyes instantly! In the sky, a bolt of lightning pierced the sky.
Thunder is coming!!
By the time another lightning flash appeared, he had disappeared into the hotel room.
Under such a torrential rain, Fang Linyan approached Jinguang Temple like a ghost.
There was no one on the square. In the darkness of the night, the huge Jinguang Temple was crawling on the spot like a silent giant. The door of the temple was already closed tightly, and only the big golden door nails were shining.
