Chapter 475: Remnant
Jiang Lao glanced at him, and a look of hesitation flashed in his eyes, as if he couldn't make up his mind about something.
After a long while, he smiled and said, "To tell you the truth, before I met you, I really thought so. ”
"Before you see me?" Fang Yan was slightly stunned, and faintly heard another meaning in his words, "Old Jiang, what do you mean now?" ”
Jiang Lao didn't answer, but asked, "Since you can come here once from that cliff, you should be able to come here twice, right?" ”
Fang Yan was stunned for a moment, obviously not understanding the meaning of this sentence. However, after thinking about it carefully, he nodded, "If you bring me back to where I just entered Death Valley, I should be able to find this place again." ”
"Okay, okay." Jiang Lao nodded appreciatively, and his expression was a little excited.
"Jiang Lao ......" the dialect screamed, his face full of incomprehension.
Jiang Lao smiled and said, "You should also know that Death Valley is too dangerous, if you are allowed to look for medicinal herbs here, no one knows if you can come back." ”
The confusion on Fang Yan's face was a little thicker.
Jiang Lao also stopped selling Guan Zi, and said directly: "Little guy, I can tell you the location of the exit first, but you must guarantee to send me the medicinal materials back." ”
Fang Yan's eyes lit up, and a hint of joy flashed on his face. But soon, the look of joy was replaced by a look of unease.
"Jiang Lao, what do you mean......" Thinking of what Jiang Lao said earlier, he vaguely guessed something.
"If that location is really an exit, you can buy some medicinal herbs for me and come back." Jiang Lao looked at him solemnly and said, "It's much safer and more secure to go outside to buy it than if you look for it in this Death Valley." ”
Fang Yan's brows furrowed unconsciously, the expression on his face did not change much, but his mind turned rapidly.
What the other party said was not unreasonable, if he was asked to look for medicinal herbs in this Death Valley, he was really not sure that he would return here. Not to mention that this Death Valley is full of dangers, but the unguardable formation is enough to make him die.
If he is inexplicably teleported a few more times, it is really unknown whether he will be able to find this place again.
Seriously speaking, Jiang Lao's proposal was exactly what he wanted. If you can go out, it is naturally much more convenient and safer to buy in the outside world. He's going to have to come in again anyway.
It's just that Elder Jiang will just tell him the location of the exit? Apparently impossible. They didn't know each other, and Jiang Lao definitely wouldn't trust him unreservedly. If he guessed correctly, Jiang Lao should also wait for the next thing called forbidden in his body.
Thinking of this, he unconsciously felt a sense of disgust in his heart. However, he naturally didn't show this look.
Jiang Lao looked at him quietly, and only after thinking that he had almost thought about it did he ask out loud: "How is it, little guy, what do you think of this proposal?" You should have the guts to enter this Death Valley again, right? ”
The dialect was silent, not knowing what he was thinking.
"You don't have to worry, if you don't agree, I won't force it." Seeing this, Jiang Lao smiled indifferently and said, "If you are willing to look for medicinal materials in this Death Valley, I don't mind. ”
"Elder Jiang, if I promise to come in again, will you tell me the location of that exit?" Fang Yan looked at him with some suspicion, "You believe me so much? ”
"I believe in you, but I have to take it with a spare." Jiang Lao smiled slightly and said, "If you agree, I will plant a ban on you that only I can lift." You can rest assured that this prohibition will not harm you, as long as you bring back the medicinal herbs within the predetermined time, I will lift the prohibition on you. ”
Sure enough, Fang Yan couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"Little one, I don't force this." Looking at the wry smile on Fang Yan's face, Jiang Lao said softly: "If you don't agree, I won't put any restrictions on you." ”
Hearing this, Fang Yan's eyes couldn't help but flash a look of surprise.
This old-timer can obviously directly plant a prohibition in his body, as long as there is that prohibition, whatever he says will be anything. However, instead of doing so, he asked for his opinion. Judging by the attitude he shows, it seems that he will not force him if the dialect does not agree.
Fang Yan glanced at Jiang Lao, and the disgust in his heart instantly dissipated, and he faintly gave birth to some good feelings.
He also understood that the other party wanted to plant a forbidden act in his body, after all, if it were him, he couldn't trust a stranger like this. After all, he may be the only glimmer of hope that Jiang Lao can leave this Death Valley, how dare Jiang Lao be careless.
Jiang Lao's demeanor was obviously much more noble compared to the white-haired old man in the cave. At least, what he does doesn't exclude the dialect.
After thinking about it slightly, Fang Yan asked out loud, "Old Jiang, how much time are you willing to give me?" ”
After thinking about it, Jiang Lao said, "What do you think of three years?" ”
"Three years?" Fang Yan's brows furrowed slightly, and his face was slightly pale.
With the white-haired old man five years ago, these three years are really a bit short. In the past three years, he was not sure whether he could gather the medicinal materials needed by Jiang Lao and the white-haired old man.
What's more, after his delay like this, in the past three years, he didn't have time to find someone who had a talent for formation, and at that time, those three spirit beasts with unpredictable strength would definitely not forgive him.
It's really a bit of a headache, Fang Yan sighed in his heart, and asked helplessly: "Elder Jiang, can the time be extended for another two years?" ”
"Three years should be enough." Jiang Lao shook his head and said, "This place is not far from that exit, and four days and five days will be enough at most." It's not been a year since you went from entering Death Valley to being here. Given three years, it should be plenty of time. ”
Fang Yan's heart was in a hurry, and after a quick turn in his mind, he suddenly asked, "Senior, can you be sure that location is really the exit?" ”
Jiang Lao was slightly stunned, as if he didn't understand the meaning of his words, but he still said: "I said, I am eighty percent sure. ”
"Eighty percent." Fang Yan smiled bitterly, "In other words, there are still two percent uncertain." ”
"Little one, what do you want to say?"
"Elder Jiang, if that position is really an exit, three years is indeed enough." Fang Yan looked at him and said, "But, what if that location is not the exit?" ”
Jiang Lao was stunned for a moment, and then his brows furrowed slightly, as if he had never thought about this question.
Fang Yan looked at him quietly, his heart was very anxious, if he insisted on only giving him three years, he would have no choice at all.
"Little one, you're right, we really have to be mentally prepared for this." After a while, Jiang Lao nodded lightly and said, "In that case, I will give you five years, as long as you can bring the medicinal materials I need within five years." ”
"Five years?" Fang Yan's heart was overjoyed, but his face did not show much reaction.
"Little one, five years is already my limit." Seeing that Fang Yan's brows were still tightly locked, Jiang Lao thought that he was still dissatisfied, and said helplessly: "You should also know that there is not much time left for me." If you are given ten or twenty years, then even if you can come back, I am afraid you will not see me again. ”
"Okay, then five years." The dialect looked upright and said.
Jiang Lao nodded, and with a slight movement of his palm, a white light appeared in his hand.
"Little one, I'm going to ban you."
"Come on." Fang Yan replied helplessly, the secret path already has a prohibition in the body anyway, and he is not afraid of another one.
Jiang Lao's palm was lightly clicked, and the white light flew towards Fang Yan with a swish, and it fell into his body and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Fang Yan carefully examined his body, and just like last time, he found nothing.
"You don't have to worry, for five years, this ban won't have any effect on you." Jiang Lao's faint voice sounded in Fang Yan's ears.
Fang Yan smiled bitterly and said, "I don't know what medicinal herbs Jiang Lao wants?" ”
"Whew!"
With a soft sound, Jiang Lao actually ripped off a piece of cloth from his clothes. Then, he put his right index finger to his mouth and bit it lightly, and quickly wrote on the cloth.
Half an hour later, with a wave of Jiang Lao's palm, the strip of cloth full of words flew towards the dialect.
"All the herbs I asked for are listed here."
After saying that, Jiang Lao's palm flipped again, and a bulging cloth bag appeared in his hand.
"This is all my family property, you can use it to buy medicinal herbs."
The dialect took the strip of cloth and the cloth bag, and took it into his arms without looking at it. Then she looked at him blankly.
Seeing this, Jiang Lao couldn't help laughing, his palm moved slightly, and another strip of cloth flew towards him.
"Here's the route to that exit."
Fang Yan hurriedly took it, and then looked at it carefully. Only then did he find that the material of this map actually exuded a trace of antiquity, and at a glance he knew that it was many years old. What's more, the map is clearly just a broken part.
Not only that, but the scene painted on this cloth strip is also very detailed, and all the surrounding landscapes are drawn.
"Senior, did you draw this map?" Fang Yan asked suddenly.
"I haven't even been to the location of that exit, how can I draw it?" Jiang Lao smiled bitterly and said, "I found this map in this Death Valley. If it weren't for this map, I wouldn't have been so badly injured and trapped here for so long. ”
Fang Yan was slightly startled and said, "Old Jiang, this map ......"
"It's a remnant, isn't it?" Jiang Lao seemed to know what he was thinking, and said, "I also know that it is a remnant picture, but this is the case when I found him." ”
