Chapter 2: One step ahead
Lin Chen ignored Ruyi, and left the inn without any of his entourage.
Now he is not safe, the second master wants him to die, and Ruyi may stab him in the back at any time.
Moreover, more importantly, there are no players to take his mission to heal his injuries, and there are no players to escort him to Luohe City.
In addition, his own strength is low and his talent is mediocre, so he may die at any time.
Although he will establish the Chaos Empire and become the Chaos Demon Emperor in the future, this is only the result, and the process is completely unclear.
As a die-hard player of this game, he knows the plot of the first to tenth editions well, and even knows many hidden plots clearly.
Now, according to the time and place of my wake-up, it should be the beginning of this game, and there is still a long time before the tenth version of the plot.
Therefore, Lin Chen has a great advantage in living in this world, that is, he knows the course of all the major events in this world, and even knows many key points
Features of the PC, and even these
PC shortcomings, hidden weaknesses, and even handles.
And, now, in this Jinbao Town, there is a super big opportunity waiting for him to get it.
Moreover, this opportunity is not even available to the player, but now that he has crossed over by himself, it is possible to get it.
Lin Chen quickly shuttled through Jinbao Town, heading straight for his destination.
Jinbao Town is not large, it is a small town with a population of about 70,000 or 80,000.
About a quarter of an hour later, Lin Chen arrived at his destination, a bookstore.
In this game, there are bookstores everywhere, and all kinds of practice methods are sold in bookstores, of course, they are some unpopular practice methods for those who are new to the game.
As for those advanced cultivation exercises, they can only be obtained by other means, such as trading between players, auctions, or entering the game to obtain copies.
Of course, for Lin Chen, none of this is possible.
"This guest officer, let's see what cheats you want, we have everything here. β
After Lin Chen entered the bookstore, the owner of the shop immediately greeted him and said with a smile.
Lin Chen glanced at the bookstore, and soon fixed his gaze on one place, and then walked over, reaching out to pick up a book on the shelf.
"This guest officer, this book is a fragment, and someone wants it. β
Just as Lin Chen reached out to take it, the owner of the bookstore suddenly stopped Lin Chen.
"How much, I double the price. Lin Chen ignored the boss's words, still took the book down and spoke.
"Double?!" The boss was taken aback when he heard this, and then spoke, "Okay, okay, 300 taels of silver." β
"Take it. Lin Chen didn't hesitate at all, and immediately took out the silver and handed it over.
"Shopkeeper, I've got all the money, I want the book!"
Just when the boss took the money from Lin Chen's hand, an excited voice came from the bookstore, as if he had been looking forward to it for a long time.
Then, Lin Chen saw a man about twenty-seven or eighteen years old with a mediocre appearance walking in.
"Lu Cheng, this ......" The bookstore owner saw the visitor, holding Lin Chen's money in one hand, with a touch of embarrassment.
Lin Chen looked at the man named Lu Cheng, his brows furrowed slightly, and he was glad in his heart that he had come one step earlier.
This Lu Cheng is a wanted criminal in the middle of the first version of the game.
However, he is not a wanted criminal now, he is now a guard of the Li family's caravan in Weihe City, the capital of Weihe County.
Lu Cheng is clever, has good talents, and is very valued by the Li family, and will definitely be the captain of the caravan in the future.
However, Lu Cheng doesn't want to be a subordinate all the time, so every time he goes out, he will inquire about the news and seek opportunities.
And his great opportunity is in this bookstore, in the remnants of the cheats book in Lin Chen's hand.
This fragment actually has a secret, after being burned, it will leave a golden page, and on this golden page there is a set of Xuan-level exercises, the Three Yang Yuan Qi Formula.
In the game, the exercises are divided from low to high, lower, middle, upper, yellow, xuan, earth, and heaven.
The bookstores sell all the lower and middle, and the larger cities can buy the upper ones.
After that, the bookstore will not be sold during the first version of the game.
Therefore, it has become rare since the yellow level, and the Xuan-level Sanyang Yuan Qi Recipe is almost extremely precious, and the highest in King Lin's Mansion is also the Xuan level, and Lin Wangye is also Lin Chen's father who is practicing.
In the original plot of the game, Lu Cheng accidentally got the remnants here and practiced the Three Yang Yuan Qi Technique, and then his strength increased greatly, and his mentality began to swell.
Three years later, LΓΌ Cheng killed a son of the Li family in a conflict within the Li family, after which the Li family was furious and wanted to execute LΓΌ Cheng.
Lu Cheng immediately counterattacked and fled after the Li family killed several people in a row, but he held a grudge against the Li family.
A year after he escaped, he formed a bandit group with his own strength.
After that, Lu Cheng led his bandit group to destroy the Li family, and even raped and then killed the young ladies of the Li family, which caused the anger of the people and gods.
And Lu Cheng became a wanted criminal at this time, which is a rare boss in the game in the wild, elusive, and after the player is fortunate enough to encounter it, he can get the Sanyang Yuan Qi Recipe by killing it, which was very expensive in the game at that time, and it can be sold for 1000 yuan in RMB.
What Lin Chen is grabbing now is this Sanyang Yuan Qi Recipe.
In this world full of monks, if he wants to survive, his strength is the most important, and he urgently needs a powerful exercise to improve his strength.
"What's wrong? What about the book?" Lu Cheng asked when he saw the shopkeeper with a look of embarrassment.
"Lu Cheng, you are late, this book has been bought for 300 taels of silver for this son. The bookstore owner spoke.
"Boss, why don't you be trustworthy, you said that you would leave it to me, how did you sell people. Lu Cheng suddenly said angrily when he heard this.
"I'm also a businessman, this son, I bought it for three hundred taels, if you really want to pay 400 taels, I'll sell it to you. β
"And you just said to keep it for you, and you didn't give any deposit, now this son is paying a high price, why don't I sell it. β
When the boss faced Lu Cheng's words, he also immediately fought back.
Lu Cheng's face was extremely ugly when he heard this, and he turned to Lin Chen and said: "This son, I am a member of the Li family in Weihe, I have wanted to buy this remnant book for a long time, you are robbing people like this, it is not a gentleman's doing." β
Lu Chengmian hid a needle in his pocket, deliberately revealing his identity as the Li family, obviously wanting to threaten Lin Chen with the people of the Li family.
"I heard that you have never wanted to be a subordinate of the Li family, and now you are threatening me with the Li family, it is really a fox and a fake tiger. Lin Chen sneered.
When Lu Cheng heard this, he chuckled in his heart, he didn't want to do anything about the Li family, and he had never told anyone about it.
"As for the Li family in Weihe County, what do you think is compared to the Lin Wangfu?" Lin Chen said again.
Lu Cheng and the shopkeeper were shocked when they heard this, the status of King Lin's mansion in the Cangyan Kingdom was extremely noble, and it was not comparable to the small Li family at all.
"Are you from King Lin's Mansion?" Lu Cheng asked vigilantly in his heart.
"My surname is Lin, and my single name is Chen, you can inquire about my origin. Lin Chen said a word, and then left with the remnants.
Although Lin Chen is a concubine of King Lin's mansion, and he has also been sent out of the palace, he is not something that a small family in any place can bully.
Lu Cheng watched Lin Chen leave, his heart twitched, and he felt that his most precious thing was constantly going away.
