changed his outfit again, and became the appearance of a weak scholar, but he deliberately made his hair scattered, looking extremely embarrassed, but it happened to cover his face, Lin Yun entered the city again. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
After entering the city, Lin Yun didn't go anywhere else, and went straight to the center of the city. In the middle of the city sat seven halls, and these seven halls were strangely enclosed in a circle, like guards guarding a very dilapidated courtyard.
"This is the City Lord's Mansion?" Lin Yun looked at the dilapidated courtyard in front of him, and there was a doubt in his heart.
Originally, he thought that even if this city lord was not as powerful as the seven major forces, and the city lord's mansion was slightly smaller than the mission hall of the seven major forces, it was at least larger than the shops in the city, and it should be a little more majestic, but everything in front of him was really a little unexpected.
The small courtyard in front of you is estimated to cover an area of several zhang in size, the courtyard walls are all made of dark stone, and the two wooden doors in front of the door are also dilapidated, you can see the small holes drilled by insects, which look old.
What surprised Lin Yun the most was that there was no one in this small courtyard, and it stands to reason that a dignified city lord's mansion must at least have a guard or something.
With doubts in his heart, Lin Yun gently patted the two wooden doors at the entrance of the courtyard, but unfortunately there was no response from the courtyard. Subconsciously, Lin Yun's strength increased a little, and he knocked a few more times, but there was a squeak, and the two wooden doors actually opened by themselves, and it turned out to be hidden.
Stepping into the door, what greeted me was that there were more than a dozen rooms in this courtyard that were very small and crowded together, and it was estimated that each room was only one zhang in size, and some rooms had been lit up with warning circles, while some rooms were covered with dust.
"This is the retreat cave mansion that Shopkeeper Fu said? It seems to be a little different from the memory left by the Tianshu Martial Saint. Lin Yun looked at the warning arrays that had lit up with very complex lines, and couldn't help but think to himself.
"Little guy, do you know what kind of place this is?" Suddenly, a slightly hoarse voice sounded in Lin Yun's ears.
"Ahh
Lin Yun screamed loudly, his body retreated suddenly, and at the same time his gaze swept towards the entire courtyard, and at some point, a sloppy old man who looked to be sixty or seventy years old stood in front of him with a cane, especially the eyes were closed together, slightly sunken, as if there were no eyeballs inside.
"Junior Li Liang has seen his senior!" Frightened, Lin Yun hurriedly bowed and saluted, and did not forget to fabricate a fake name at random to report.
"What seniors are not predecessors, a bad old man who is about to go into the ground. ”
The sloppy old man waved his hand and smiled kindly, and then continued: "You came here, it seems that you know that this is the City Lord's Mansion, so you are here to choose the Cave Mansion for retreat?"
"Yes! The junior is about to break through, so I want to find a safe place to retreat, and I heard that this is the best place. Lin Yun said cautiously.
"It's good here, but it's expensive, are you sure you can afford it?" said the sloppy old man with a smile.
"I don't know how many yuan stones a day? I will use it for a day, maybe not for a day. Lin Yun said.
"Ten thousand stones. The sloppy old man stretched out a very bitter finger and said in a deep voice.
"What? 10,000 yuan stone? What kind of joke, didn't you say 1,000 yuan stone?" Lin Yun shouted in fright, this price was too exaggerated.
"It's very simple, the old man is the most disgusted with the rat who hides his head and tail? The sloppy old man raised his eyebrows and said contemptuously.
"Ah, no, no, senior, you misunderstood, the junior just came out of the Taimo Mountain Range, and after several fights, he is now very embarrassed, not intentionally covering his face. ”
Lin Yun hurriedly explained, and at the same time, he was secretly shocked in his heart. If this old man really lets himself show his true face, I'm afraid the next plan will be difficult to continue.
"Hehe, I see that your disguise technique is really terrible, I have a secret book here, stealing the heavenly magic skills, and it is no problem to use it to change into someone else's appearance into the cave room, and I have a fate with you today, so I will sell it to you cheaply, a thousand yuan stone. The sloppy old man snapped and pulled out a tattered book from his back waist and handed it to Lin Yun.
"This..."Lin Yun was stunned for a moment, not knowing what to do.
"Why, can't you look at the bad old man?" said the sloppy old man, his face sank, and he was very annoyed.
"No, no, don't be angry, because the juniors only have a total of 5,000 yuan, and they still want to go to the cave for retreat. Lin Yun hurriedly explained.
"Hmph! I don't dare. In this way, the old man is happy today, this secret book and a cave house have a total of 11,000 yuan stones, you pay 5,000 yuan first, and the 6,000 yuan stone you owe will be returned when you have yuan stones later. The sloppy old man said coldly.
"Huh? Is this okay?" Lin Yun said in surprise.
The old man said yes. ”
The sloppy old man said, walked to Lin Yun with a crutch, stretched out a hand and patted Lin Yun lightly, and then smiled: "Now that you have been tracked and banned by me, return the six thousand yuan stone within three months, otherwise you will wait for the joint pursuit of the seven major forces." ”
Watching the sloppy old man pat him gently, this made Lin Yun suddenly remember that in the Tai Demon City before, a golden-bodied martial arts sect had set up the aura and tracking mark of the demon seduction grass on the people of the entire Tai Demon City, and he thought that this sloppy old man also had this method.
Lin Yun didn't dare to have the slightest idea of resisting at this time, and hurriedly responded: "Yes, yes, the junior must hand over the six thousand yuan stone owed on time." ”
After speaking, Lin Yun took out the iron condensing sword from the storage bag, and then handed the storage bag to the sloppy old man, and said, "There are five thousand yuan stones in it, wait for the seniors to count them." ”
"No, you don't dare to lie to me. The third room on the left is still empty, so go in. Remember that you only have one day. The sloppy old man said with a smile.
"Yes, yes, juniors understand. Lin Yun hurriedly agreed.
He bowed respectfully to the sloppy old man again, and Lin Yun walked towards the room that the sloppy old man was referring to.
Pushing open the door and entering, this room was only a square square circle, there was a futon on the ground, and other than that, it was empty, and there was nothing.
Just when Lin Yun's brows were furrowed, a light suddenly flashed, and a crystal wall suddenly appeared on the wall in front of him, on which some words were densely written.
"Grass! ”
Seeing the words on the crystal wall, Lin Yun's face suddenly turned pale, and he scolded, and then turned around and jumped into the courtyard outside.
"Bastard!"
Lin Yun clenched his fists fiercely and said angrily, because there was no one in the courtyard at this time except him, and the sloppy old man before had disappeared.
