"Forbidden land?"

Hearing Old Chen's exclamation, Ye Chen frowned, and asked with some puzzlement, "Why do you say that?"

"Haven't you heard of it?" Seeing Ye Chen's puzzled face, Old Chen also asked with some confusion, "Then why do you suddenly want to go there." ”

“...... Leave that alone, and tell me about the situation there. ”

At this time, where did Ye Chen have time to explain the reason to him, he was in a hurry, so he opened his mouth to urge.

"Okay......"

Seeing that Ye Chen was so anxious, Old Chen stopped asking questions and began to explain.

It turned out that Nan Yu Academy was quite famous in this Xizhou, as the largest school in this Xizhou in the past, its power was extremely huge in its heyday, and most of the sects in this Xizhou were inextricably related to it - whether it was a handsome family or the mainstay of the sect, most of them graduated from Nan Yu Academy.

But just ten years ago, a sudden fire suddenly engulfed the whole academy - the fire broke out inexplicably at night, and all the students in it, without exception, were buried in the endless fire.

When they first heard the news, the various sects were extremely angry—not only because it was their alma mater, but also because all the reserve forces in the family were folded in it.

At that time, all the elite forces of this Western Continent poured out to investigate the source of the fire, but the fire was so blazing that no one dared to approach it - the few who dared to approach were all consumed by the embers and became the souls of the fire.

Since it couldn't be approached, the seeds of conspiracy theories also germinated in the hearts of various leaders, and in the end, it evolved into a big battle of the sects - everyone suspected that the competitors deliberately set the fire......

This war lasted for two years, and countless sects were greatly injured because of this, and the reason why the war stopped was because the monstrous fire was inexplicably extinguished in the middle of the night......

After the fire was extinguished, a dark light shield tightly wrapped the Nanshe Academy, and within a radius of ten kilometers, everything was silent, becoming the forbidden area of this Xizhou.

At that time, there were still many sects that did not give up, and after seeing the fire extinguished, they still wanted to go in and find out - after all, the Nanshe Academy had a profound heritage, and the heavenly and earthly treasures in it were extremely rich, and the years of war had already brought most of the sects to the brink of collapse, so many people's minds were also alive all at once.

However, all the people who went there disappeared without exception, and no matter how strong the people who went there were, after stepping within ten kilometers of the Nanshe Academy, it was as if the world had evaporated......

This kind of terrifying spell is by no means something that people on this continent can cast, and after understanding this layer, all the sects have also abandoned their previous suspicions and joined forces to investigate the cause of this again, but to this day, there is still no clear conclusion......

"Is there anyone there still guarding now?"

Hearing Elder Chen say this, Ye Chen was a little apprehensive in his heart - if there were still people there who were constantly investigating, then their journey would not be so smooth, and they would even encounter some unnecessary dangers......

"I don't know. Old Chen shook his head solemnly, thought for a while and said, "If there is anyone who hasn't given up, it should be someone from the Immortal King Pavilion." ”

Immortal King Pavilion?!

Hearing Chen Lao's words, Dieyi's face changed, her lips opened, and she was about to exclaim, but after thinking about it for a while, she slowly closed her mouth again, pretending that nothing had happened.

"Hmmm......"

Ye Chen lowered his head and pondered for a while, and finally made up his mind.

In any case, this Nanyu Academy must be visited, and this time it happens to be at the boundary of Xizhou, if it doesn't work out this time, it may not be so convenient to wait until next time, thinking of this, Ye Chen hurriedly asked: "How long will it take to get from here to Nanyu Academy." ”

"I want to think about it. Chen Lao folded his fingers and calculated, and said, "From here, it will take about a day to reach the mountain city, and then in less than a day, you will almost be able to reach Nanyu Academy." ”

In other words, if they set off today, by the time they arrived at Nanyu Academy, there would be six days left.

Six days, is that enough?

Ye Chen couldn't help but beat a drum in his heart - it took nearly a week or so to finish without eating or sleeping in Hongqing Village, listening to what Chen Lao meant, the current situation of Nanyu Academy is still in an unknown state, and if it is time to make trouble, it may be a little too late......

Forget it, it's useless to think about it now, anyway, since you're going, you can't continue to waste time.

"Hurry up, time is running out. ”

Ye Chen stood up and walked towards it.

Well......

Seeing that Ye Chen had made up his mind, it was difficult for a few people to stop them, so they could only follow Ye Chen and go up.

......

"Isn't it because I'm not being hospitable or ......?"

Hearing that a few people were leaving, the village chief was a little flustered at that time, and said a little helplessly.

"No, no, you've done well enough. It's just that we still have some things to do when we go out, and if we continue to delay, the time may not be enough. ”

Seeing that the village chief looked guilty, Ye Chen hurriedly opened his mouth to comfort him.

Why didn't he want to stay a little longer, but time didn't allow it......

"That's fine......"

Seeing that a few people had made up their minds to go, the village chief no longer kept them, and packed a lot of gifts for a few people before letting a few people leave.

"This, this is too heavy......"

When he climbed halfway up the mountain, Ye Chen couldn't help but sigh.

There were too many things given by the village chief, and Rao had already put most of them into the system backpack, but the rest still made him a little uncomfortable......

"This ...... You said it earlier!"

Seeing the beads of sweat on Ye Chen's head, Chen Lao took out a small dark box from his body in a little panic, and then hurriedly handed it to Ye Chen: "I have a shadow box for storage here, you can quickly put everything in it." ”

"Ding, New Item Detected: Shadow Crate (Quality: Normal)"

"Ding, prop effect: can store a small number of items. ”

Looking at the small box in his hand, Ye Chen was a little stunned - when did this old man have so many treasures.

Seeing that Ye Chen had some suspicion in his eyes, Ah Yan on the side was a little timid and explained: "I went to him two days ago and brought out all the things that can still be used, otherwise I can only keep raw ashes there......"

"Oh......"

Hearing Ah Yan say this, Ye Chen's heart was relieved.

Don't say it, since Ah Yan came, Chen Lao has become more and more loyal to Ye Chen - originally his purpose was to resurrect Ah Yan, and now that the knot between the two of them has been untied, the little life of the two of them every day is delicious, and he has no reason to continue to resent Ye Chen.

"Alright, take out everything else, don't wait for me to ask you again when it's time to go. ”

Ye Chen squinted his eyes and looked at Chen Lao with a treacherous expression—if Ah Yan didn't say this, he really didn't know that Chen Lao still had so many treasures hidden.

"Uh...... Well......"

Chen Lao never expected that his own shadow box was sent out by the way, and he reluctantly took out the rest of the things on his body to Ye Chen.

"Shadow Mouse*100"

"Shadow Symbol*200"

......

Listening to the prompt sound that kept ringing in his ears, Ye Chen's mouth was about to grin to the sky - he never expected that this old man Chen still had so many treasures hidden.

It's just that Chen Lao is a little unhappy, and he has been crying and mourning for the rest of the journey, and he feels a little sorry for his inventory over the years.

But in fact, it was useless for him to hold it in his hand now, and he originally planned to give it to Ye Chen.

The key is that according to his original plan, he wanted to use it to send charcoal in the snow to offer his hospitality at a critical moment, but he didn't expect to be refreshed by Ye Chen so early......

"It's a pity that this kid doesn't want to be a profiteer, talent......"

Chen Lao and Ah Yan walked slowly behind, and said through gritted teeth.

"Okay, okay, anyway, you're going to give it to someone else. ”

"Hey, you're going to comfort someone and kiss one. ”

"Let's go, I don't know how to be ashamed of ...... at such an old age"

A few people were noisy along the way, but the road behind was much easier.

It's just that after a few people relaxed their vigilance, they didn't notice at all that there was already a malicious eye staring at them behind them......

"I'd like to see how long you can get comfortable!"
