[127] Cooperation
……
Although he said this, Chen Li's vigilance did not relax.
As if seeing Chen Li's nervousness, the gray-robed little guy suddenly chuckled and said:
"Guests rest assured, the aura emanating from my body is not aimed at you, it is similar to anyone, it is not my intention, but it is really uncontrollable, guests don't need to care too much about this, if you really can't believe it, it's okay, I don't mind guests using any means to defend and protect their own safety."
When it came to this, of course Chen Li didn't want to admit his defense directly, he also smiled and said: "What's the matter, I'm just used to being closer in an unfamiliar environment, and you don't have to mind the shopkeeper." ”
"Anyway, you haven't said what the purpose of this cooperation is, do you mind telling me about it?"
Chen Li didn't believe much in what the shopkeeper of this small pawnshop said, at most he only believed three points, and the rest were viewed with skepticism.
"Of course there is no problem, not to mention that this mission is a guest."
The gray-robed little guy stepped back a little, narrowing the distance between himself and Chen Li, he snapped his fingers, and a sand table suddenly appeared between the two.
The area of the sand table is relatively large, about twenty or thirty square meters, I don't know if it is special in itself, in this dark void where you can't see your fingers, Chen Li can see everything on this sand table very clearly.
It was a virtual shrinking sand table of a city with an unknown area of surrounding mountains, and compared to that mountain range, the city could be said to be small and pitiful.
In such a large sand table, there was only a palm-sized place, and if it weren't for his outstanding eyesight, he really wouldn't have noticed the city hidden in this mountain range.
"Here?" Chen Li cast a puzzled look.
The gray-robed Xiao Si responded, "This is a city in the Eastern Wilderness, known as the Great Imperial Capital, and the mountain range where it is located is also famous, called the Eastern Wilderness Mountain Range, I need you to help me find someone in that city." ”
"One man...... What kind of people? Chen Lei was a little speechless while puzzled, the information provided was too simple, so he wasn't afraid that he wouldn't find it?
Whether the other party is male or female, old or young, what kind of physical characteristics does he have, and is he a cultivator...... None of the basic information in these foundations is provided to you!
Or is this a unique metaphysical method of finding people among the bigwigs of the fantasy test?
When Chen Xingzhong complained, the gray-robed little guy seemed to know what he was thinking, with a mysterious smile on his face, he said lightly:
"A special person, you just need to know that the other person is very special. In addition, you don't need to know any information about the other party, because this matter is about fate, and there are many candidates on my side, but among the many candidates, you may be the only one who can find them. ”
The gray-robed little guy's words were still so clueless, Chen Li didn't want to be too entangled, so he simply nodded directly: "Yes, anyway, if you can't find it at that time, you can't blame me, and besides, I haven't heard of this city you said." ”
Chen Li paused before saying, "It's not a secret, I've been drifting in this void for a while, but I can't find a way to get out, the cooperation you said, if I want to reach it, I may have to talk about it later." ”
"There's no need for guests to worry about that." The gray-robed little guy waved his hand, and his strange eyes looked at Chen Li, giving him a serious feeling, "The matter that the guest is worried about is very simple, I just need to understand whether the guest agrees to this cooperation, and the rest don't have to worry too much." ”
"Please answer my question directly, do you agree or disagree? If you agree, you can get started. ”
Chen Li's mind was full of question marks, and he didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in the shopkeeper's gourd, but he still said: "Of course I agree, so what should I do next?" ”
"Well, it's good for the guest to agree, and then you can act, come, this is the contract between us, imprinted into a trace, the divine thought can take effect, this contract is guaranteed by the laws of heaven and earth, absolutely fair!"
As he spoke, an ancient animal skin scroll appeared in the gray-robed boy's hand, and the scroll slowly unfolded, revealing a few simple terms in front of him.
Chen Li took a closer look and found that there were no traps in it, so he was relieved to imprint his divine thoughts into it.
Suddenly, the scroll spontaneously combusted without fire, and soon after, an invisible restraint enveloped the two of them.
Chen Lihui imprinted a trace of his divine thoughts, naturally because he knew what this scroll was.
This is completely common sense, whether it is Wu Leng or Wang Danian's memory, there is the existence of this kind of scroll.
This is a common method between cultivators, and when the two sides want to cooperate, they have to use this kind of scroll, and there are all kinds of such scrolls, and the witnesses are naturally all kinds of them.
There are those witnessed by the heroic spirits of the past, those witnessed by divine beasts, those witnessed by legendary demon gods, and some witnessed by the way of heaven, that is, the laws of heaven and earth.
For all kinds of witnesses, cultivators naturally believe in the law of heaven and earth itself, because as long as it is signed, there is no need to worry about any breach of contract between the two parties.
However, the scrolls that directly let the laws of heaven and earth act as witnesses are too rare, because the production method is secret, and the required realm strength is too profound, so the value of this kind of scroll is difficult to imagine.
This kind of scroll itself, in terms of its value, is equivalent to cherishing a treasure of the secret treasure type.
Only those cultivators with deep pockets would use this kind of contract scroll when they needed to cooperate with something of great importance.
Of course, Chen Li was a person who knew the goods, so when he saw this scroll, he already knew that the matter was in order.
This kind of scroll can't be faked, just look at the feedback of the laws between heaven and earth, and after signing the contract, he really relaxed a little.
The whole person also seemed less nervous.
"Now that we've all happily signed the contract, it's time to go, guest, you shouldn't have any opinions, right?" The gray-robed guy asked.
"No comment." Chen Li nodded, forcing himself not to ask more questions.
Anyway, he didn't have an answer when he asked.
It's better to see how the other party does it.
"Guest, please extend your hand."
Chen Li stretched out his hand.
He stretched out his right hand, and in the pitch-black void space, he could only see a general outline with his eyesight, and then, Chen Li cast his questioning gaze, meaning naturally what should I do next?
The gray-robed little man smiled faintly and said, "Cover your hands over the city on the sand table, and then wait quietly." ”
Chen Li was skeptical, but he still stretched out his hand above the sand table, which was no larger than the size of his palm.
Because the edge of this sand table was close to Chen Li, the location of this city was in the corner of the mountain range, and it was not far from him, that is, the distance that he could just reach out.
This facilitated his movements.
It was only about two or three breaths, and something happened to Chen Li, who thought he would experience a longer time, to his surprise.
There was a sudden suction force from under his palm, preventing it from expanding as time passed while he was asleep, and he was able to maintain his stable body at first, but soon he had a feeling that he could not hold on.
Not only did his face change drastically, "What's going on?" ”
As he spoke, he was about to withdraw his palm and retreat backwards, but in the next moment, the gray-robed servant's words interrupted his thoughts, "Don't be surprised, this is your way out, don't resist along this suction, follow the direction of its suction, and you will be able to break out of the void and reach the city you are going to." ”
When Chen Li heard this, he immediately stopped resisting, he even wanted to drill inward with the suction, and soon his idea was realized.
I saw that he was short, and his whole person turned into a meteor with a tail in an instant, becoming smaller and smaller, and finally burrowed into the sand table city.
"The one should be pleasantly surprised that he took the initiative to run in front of her, right?" The gray-robed little guy smiled mysteriously, as if he saw countless precious resources greeting his smiling face.
He didn't care at all about what he did to hide from Chen Li, because his actions didn't violate those contracts.
Speaking of those who have come to the end of the gain, that lucky boy should be the one who has the most abundant harvest, right?
Thinking about it this way, he is still helping the other party, so he doesn't have to worry about the contract.
The gray-robed little guy in a happy mood whistled, and as soon as the sleeve robe was unfurled, he put away the big sand table, and then transformed, he turned into a dusty stone, and continued to wander in this void, waiting for the next destined person.
…………
The words are divided into two ends.
On the other side, Chen Li, who didn't know that he had been pitted, maintained the posture of a meteor dragging his tail and landed at the corner of a huge mountain range in the Eastern Wilderness.
At that moment, the smoke and dust billowed and the sound shook the sky, the rubble and debris scattered and splashed in all directions, and a small mushroom cloud rose into the air, and the shock wave spread to all directions for an unknown number of distances.
In this inaccessible mountain range, it is naturally a paradise for beasts such as beasts, fierce beasts, monsters, spirit beasts, etc., when this mushroom cloud appears, in the depths of this mountain range, many demon kings who are so high that they can already turn into human forms have noticed this change and have cast their eyes.
As for those beasts that didn't cultivate enough and were still around this mushroom cloud, they naturally suffered.
I don't know how many beasts died at this moment, and even the whole corpse was not left.
Not only that, but for the vegetation, this disaster that fell from the sky also affected them, and I don't know how many well-grown vegetation were uprooted at this moment, and the circle closest to the mushroom cloud was swept away.
There are unlucky people who are naturally lucky, and there are always some lucky ones who have slipped through the net in the face of catastrophe.
In a spacious cave somewhere, a gold-eating rat whose cultivation had already reached the late stage of the fourth order, and he was only half a step away from breaking through and successfully turning into a human body survived this heavenly disaster.
The cultivation of the late stage of the fourth order means that the demon crystal has been formed in the body of this gold-eating rat, and the demon crystal contains at least half of the demon soul that can transform into a divine soul after at least half of it has matured.
The demon crystal is the symbol of the third order of the demon beast, and the demon soul is the symbol of the fourth-order demon beast.
For human cultivators, demon beasts can be said to be treasures all over their bodies, and demon crystals and demon souls are treasures among treasures.
However, in this mountain range, no human cultivator dared to go deep alone, because the demon beasts here were too special.
They are too united, and there is an unspeakable demon powerhouse in the deepest part of the mountain range as a guarantee, how much money can buy. The monsters in the mountains are almost the same as the human beings, and the water of the well does not interfere with the river water.
Without the great enemy of human beings, in the first half of this mountain range, the cultivation of the late stage of the fourth order was already a good existence among the demon beasts.
Not to mention being able to have a large area of rich territory, he can also order dozens or hundreds of subordinates to open the harem and pass on the bloodline.
Before cultivating further, taking the gold-eating rat as an example, you only need to offer offerings to the kings in the depths of the mountain range on weekdays, as long as you don't overdo things and break the balance, you can be safe.
The demon beast can have the IQ of a young human being in the third order, and as the existence of the demon king who is about to break through to the fifth order in the late stage of the fourth order, it has the bonus of age, and the IQ of the gold-eating rat is no worse than that of those who have lived for more than a hundred years.
It scrambled up from under the overturned throne and looked at the half-collapsed cavern, the dead and wounded, and the harem, with a sad and angry expression.
And then...... It opened its mouth and swallowed a female gold-eating rat with a slightly undulating chest and bulging belly into a small space in her stomach, and burrowed her head into the secret passage under the throne without looking back.
This kind of natural disaster, no matter how angry it is, the little sanity that remains after being frightened tells it that the best choice at the moment is to evacuate immediately.
"He will greatly increase my cultivation in the future, and I will definitely investigate the cause of today, if it is really a natural disaster, then there is nothing to say, if it is a man-made disaster, then I will take revenge!"
Speeding through the secret passages, the gold-eating rat made up his mind.
As a mouse that has lived for hundreds of years, the gold-eating rat is not comparable to those ignorant and inexperienced young mice, and I already have some guesses in my heart.
This disaster is definitely a man-made disaster.
For it has reached the obscure aura that emanates from the very center of the catastrophe.
But even if he knew this truth, the gold-eating rat had no idea of going back, or even going to see the culprit.
There is no other reason, in front of a strong person of this level, it is already a very good result to have a chance to escape, and if you turn around, you will be killed.
is still the same sentence, stay in the green mountains, and you are not afraid of no firewood.
If you save your life, maybe you will have a chance to take revenge in the future?
The territory is gone, the subordinates and the harem are gone, it's better than your own life.
What's more, isn't it saving a pregnant partner, and it's not too much of a loss...... I have to hurry up and report this disaster to the king, forget it, I can still run away.
The gold-eating rat thought so.
