I would like to express my sincere thanks to rk_owl pro, anna1978 pro, cat travelogue pro for their tips, as well as the pink tickets of zixi pro and shower 22 pro, thank you very much! ╭(╯3╰)╮——

Lin Lan glanced at her, sat down on the chair next to her, and said with an unhurried smile, "Senior sister, what do you mean by this?" When did I fool you? ”

Zhuang Keyin looked at her angrily and said, "Still say no!" The last time we met, what did you say that you forgot? Dare to say that Senior Brother Shen is pestering you, you can't help but take yourself too seriously! What kind of thing are you, you don't deserve to lift shoes for Senior Brother Shen! ”

Lin Lan couldn't help choking.

Although she also thinks that there is a big gap between herself and Shen Mutian, she can't help but feel a little unhappy when she is said to be "unworthy of lifting shoes". But she has never cared much about this kind of verbal effort, so why should she care so much about things that can't cause a trace of harm to people?

She smiled slightly and asked rhetorically, "Senior Sister Zhuang, you can eat indiscriminately, but you can't talk nonsense." Senior sister, when did I say that Senior Brother Shen came to pester me? This crime is too big for me to bear! ”

Zhuang Keyin was speechless for a moment. This means that she figured it out from Lin Lan's words, and there are no clear words, what do you want her to say?!

Seeing this, Lin Lan stood up and said, "If the little sister's words are vague and the senior sister misunderstands, the little sister is here to accompany you, and I hope that the senior sister has a lot of adults, and forgive me." ”

When she should be soft, she will be soft, she doesn't want to offend a powerful person for such a boring reason as being jealous.

Seeing her posture so low, Zhuang Keyin couldn't help but be a little confused. The women she had always seen were either as lofty and arrogant as she was, or they were groveling and evasive. Like Lin Lan, who is neither humble nor arrogant, but he says that people are completely out of anger, the first time the mentor saw it, he really didn't know how to react for a while. I can't get angry, but I don't feel angry but I feel like I'm on fire in my stomach, and I'm embarrassed for a long time, but I am half angry to death, but it has no effect on Lin Lan at all.

She snorted angrily, didn't say a word, turned and walked out of the house. When she came, she was violent, and when she went, she was full of grievances, and it was the first time in her life that she was so upset, and she felt extremely uncomfortable.

Ling'er was ready to fight on the side, thinking that they would fight if they disagreed. I didn't expect the end to be like this, and I couldn't help but fall through my glasses. This is the first time she has seen someone who can make Zhuang Keyin feel aggrieved like that. I couldn't help but open my mouth wide. looked at Zhuang Keyin's back, then turned his head and looked at Lin Lan with great admiration.

This Uncle Lin, although he seems to be soft and weak, has no quarrel with the world, but he didn't expect to be a powerful person!

She calmed down, looked at Lin Lan and said, "Uncle Lin is really amazing. can let Uncle Zhuang leave so obediently. However, Uncle Lin, Uncle Zhuang is not so easy to deal with, you are angry with her today, you still have to be careful in the future. ”

Lin Lan smiled. He looked at her and said, "Thank you for the reminder, Ling'er." But don't worry, I'm about to go out to do the mission, even if she wants to deal with me, she has to find me first! ”

Ling'er couldn't help but be stunned, looked at her and said, "Hasn't Uncle Lin already completed the task?" Why do you still have to do tasks? ”

In her opinion, a monk like Lin Lan from the Nether Realm should stay in the Ethereal Immortal Sect for the first few years, so that he can adapt to the environment, improve his cultivation, and consolidate the realm, and then go up to do tasks and experience, otherwise, the upper realm is not as easy to deal with as the lower realm, and I don't know how to die in the future!

Lin Lan said with a smile: "Although the amount of tasks has been completed, cultivation requires a lot of materials, what if I don't earn more spirit stones and come back?" Besides, it's not a way to stay in the cave all the time behind closed doors, you have to go out to see more and experience it, and you will make progress. ”

Ling'er saw that she was resolute, so she couldn't say any more, so she retreated. Before leaving, the two agreed to let Ling'er and Qiao'er find an attendant to help Lin Lan take care of the cave mansion, and wait for her to come back before talking about anything else.

After Ling'er walked out, she also went out, on the one hand, she wanted to avoid the limelight first, and on the other hand, she really wanted to exercise herself, especially this newly trained sword formation, which was eager to be verified in actual combat, and it must also be improved in actual combat.

After going out, she first went to meet Miaoyin Daojun and asked him to go out to practice. Miaoyin Daojun didn't stop it, but said: "That's fine, people who cultivate the truth always have to go through all kinds of difficulties and obstacles before they can attain the Great Dao." Although you haven't been in the sect for a long time, it's always good to have this kind of ambition, so go if you want to. Just pay attention to safety, experience is not the same as desperate, if you let yourself be irreparably damaged for the sake of training, that one is contrary to the original intention. ”

Lin Lan's heart warmed, and she said respectfully: "Thank you for the teachings of the master, the disciple understands." ”

Miaoyin Daojun nodded and said, "Okay, you can go." ”

Lin Lan got up and left, understanding Miaoyin Daojun's thoughts. Although Zhuang Keyin's cultivation is not very high, her identity is very unusual, Miaoyin Daojun will always not take her too seriously for the sake of the sect master, and many times it will be too close to her. And this newly started disciple of herself, although she is her true disciple, but after all, her qualifications are too shallow, and it is really a fool's dream to expect her to offend Zhuang Keyin for herself. Therefore, it is also a good thing for her to let herself go, when this matter passes, Zhuang Keyin's anger will disappear a little, and she will come back again, and then she will mediate again, and she can solve this matter without fighting, so it is a way to get the best of both worlds.

She went straight to the deacon hall, rummaged through the tasks issued for a long time, and finally picked a treasure hunt task. She has a soft spot for this kind of quest, in addition to being able to complete the quest, she can also travel to different places, and if she finds something else, which is not within the scope of the quest, she can pocket it, this kind of quest is like those RPG games played in her previous life, it is really a fun thing for her to kill many birds with one stone, which is her favorite.

It's just that when the disciple of the deacon hall saw it, he was in trouble, and said hesitantly: "Uncle Lin, this ...... This task ......"

"What's wrong?" Lin Lan glanced at him in surprise and asked, "Could it be that this mission is invalid?" ”

If you look closely, it's not surprising that it was released ten years ago, and it's no surprise that it's now deprecated.

The disciple hurriedly shook his head and said, "No, no, it's indeed still within the validity period, it's just ......"

It's just that that place is really a bit risky for Lin Lan now!

He didn't dare to say this, it was about the monk's face, and if he wasn't careful, he would die!

He hesitated for a long time, but finally swallowed the words on his lips, and said with a smile: "Since Uncle Shi has decided to choose this task, then the disciple will make a record for you." Whenever Uncle Shi finds something on this task, any one of them is considered to have completed the task, and he can get two hundred contribution points, with no upper limit. ”

Lin Lan nodded, these were clearly written in the task description, she had already understood, and said with a smile: "I know what I said, this nephew, please." ”

She took out her identity jade card and handed it to the disciple, and the disciple flicked her hand, and a little white light instantly disappeared into the jade card, which was the proof that she had received the task. After she put away the jade plaque, she turned around and walked out of the deacon hall, without stopping, all the way out of the sect, and then drove the flying sword, turned into a rainbow light, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

Less than two breaths after she had disappeared, a figure suddenly appeared where she had been standing. I saw him look up and down, left and right, with a disappointed and confused expression on his face, and he flew back in panic.

Lin Lan didn't pay attention to what might be happening behind her. Zhuang Keyin was able to find someone to examine herself on Xuanmiao Peak, and she could be unscrupulous after leaving the sect, so she left there as quickly as possible, and she escaped for three thousand miles, and in a blink of an eye, she came to a place where she didn't even know where she was.

The light flashed, she fell to the ground, looked around, and found that the place she was in was not remote, there was a city in the distance ahead, it seemed that the scale was not small, she couldn't help but feel a curiosity, saying that since she came to the upper realm, she had never entered the city of the upper realm, I don't know what is the difference with the lower realm?

After a slight groan, she dodged into the mysterious space, changed into civilian clothes, and hid her identity as a disciple of the Ethereal Immortal Sect, and then flew towards the city.

Although the name of the Ethereal Immortal Sect has a very useful role in this upper realm, for her at this moment, in order to prevent Zhuang Keyin from having a chance to find herself, it is best not to reveal this identity.

This distance was only a blink of an eye for the cultivator, and in the blink of an eye, she came to the city gate, the city seemed to be empty, but there was a palpitating aura in the air, she had no doubt that if she rushed forward so recklessly, what was waiting for her would not be a warm welcome.

Seeing her descend from the sky, those mortals who were waiting in line to enter the city immediately spread out to both sides, bowing respectfully, although their expressions were respectful, there was no panic, it seemed that they were very accustomed to the appearance of cultivators. And the guards in front of the city gate were even more loyal, although they knew that they were facing a cultivator, they were still neither humble nor arrogant, and they stuck to their posts as usual.

One of them, who seemed to be the captain, came out, saluted her, and said respectfully, "This fairy, dare to ask, but it's the first time you've come to this city?" ”

Lin Lan looked at him with some surprise, nodded and said, "It's the first time I've come here, how did you really find out?" ”

The guard also glanced at her in some surprise, then quickly lowered his head and said, "Fairy, all the monks who have come before will have the mark of this city, and when they come again, they will no longer have to enter and exit from this gate."
