Chapter 140 The Capable Dwell
Lu Chen narrowed his eyes, not surprised that the fierce wolf would know his identity.
The descendant of the Blood Sky Great Sage, whose name is Lu Chen, wears a black iron dog-faced mask, and his appearance is strange, and he is easily recognizable. And the name Lu Chen, probably known to the entire purgatory when he went to the contact point to meet the old woman. This is not some secret or surprising.
But the wolf's smile made people have to care.
And Lu Chen's vigilance in his heart is not only that.
He already knew all the secrets of the island of the dead, and even the heart of the Demon Emperor was suppressed in his life. Although the ghost wolf did not know, nor did he tell him the root cause of the Dead Man's Lake in Purgatory, Purgatory had good reason to suspect that the treasures of the Dead Man's Island had fallen into the hands of one of the two of them. After all, the people from Purgatory had almost turned this dead man's island upside down, and no one would believe them if they didn't find anything.
Whether this is a blessing or a curse is still unknown.
Putting away the black knife, Lu Chen jumped off the side board and stepped on the sampan.
"You go too. ”
The ghost wolf said and urged Mu Shuangying to get on the boat.
"The ship will stay for five minutes, and now it's time, and if you don't get on board, even if you are qualified to get on board, it won't wait for you. The consequences, you should know. ”
Hearing this, Mu Shuangying's red lips pursed slightly, obviously a little dissatisfied.
"Got it. ”
She muttered something again, and then jumped onto the big ship and came to Lu Chen's side.
The ship's horn sounded, and it set off again, heading into the depths of the unknown ocean. And the ghost wolf was always watching from afar on the shore, and Mu Shuangying also said goodbye loudly, and even shouted out unrealistic words such as "I will have a chance to see him again later". Leaving is leaving, no matter how the ghost wolf is, he can only stay here. And there is no possibility for the newcomers who have left to return here, after all, the exact location of this dead man's island is unknown, and how can they come back.
As it drifted away, the Isle of the Dead disappeared at the end of the sea.
"Don't waste your time here doing meaningless things, if you want to live. ”
The ferocious wolf appeared at the right time and stood at the door of the cabin with a cold face.
"Come in, I'll take you to choose a room. ”
With that, he turned and went straight into the cabin.
Lu Chen and Mu Shuangying did not refuse, and followed him into the door together.
However, as far as the eye can see, it is too messy, and even the old staircase is already half broken, and stepping on it will make a creaking sound, and the rickety may completely collapse at any time. Looking around, there was almost no existence in the dim light, only a faint black thing, and they had not yet adapted to such an environment.
After a while, it gradually became clear in front of me, and I could see that the rotten wooden planks were full of tattered marks, and a lot of blood stains had completely dried up, and the dark appearance looked really terrifying. In addition, there are many traces that have not been cleaned up, such as minced meat, stumps and broken arms...
Lu Chen couldn't frown, after all, the black iron mask was burned on his face. But if he could, he would definitely frown.
The smell here was unbearable, mixed with rot and must, and a strong smell of blood.
When the foot fell, there was a clear sound of water, but it was inexplicably sticky.
Even if you don't look down and see it, it's enough to tell that it's a bloodstain that hasn't completely dried up yet, and it probably just appeared not long ago. And Lu Chen also thought of the corpse that he had dropped from the ship earlier, although he had not seen it really at the time, but in retrospect, he could find that the corpse was not very complete, but extremely tattered.
After entering the water, the blood stains also dispersed too quickly.
It was clear that the big ship had just died shortly before it landed.
"What are the requirements for choosing a room?"
Mu Shuangying was approaching Lu Chen's side to speak, but was suddenly interrupted by him.
In the darkness, those eyes flickered with a faint cold light, which was clearly visible.
"Requirements? You think too much, there are no requirements for choosing a room, but before you choose a room, I can allow you to take a look at my room. It's the same as the rest of the room, at least the furnishings are the same. ”
The wolf seemed to laugh, but he walked ahead and couldn't see it.
With a few words, he stopped, turned and opened the first door of the cabin.
The room was bright, at least on the surface there was nothing wrong with it, and even a little too good. The antique furnishings, everything needed for daily life is very complete, and the gold-cast toad lying on the sandalwood Eight Immortals table is constantly puffing out magical smoke, which can transform into a strange appearance, which seems to contain some special Tao rhyme.
If it was as the wolf said, there were about twenty rooms in the cabin, all identical.
Not to mention the various furnishings, the gold-cast toad alone is extraordinary, and it can probably help with cultivation.
"How?"
"Not bad. ”
Lu Chen was calm enough, but Mu Shuangying's eyes lit up clearly.
The surprise and surprise were not fake, but she was equally calm, at least judging by the sound of her heartbeat.
"There are twenty-one rooms in this cabin, and there are twenty other rooms besides mine, which you can choose from. Of course, there can only be one person in each room, that's the only rule. If you can't get a room, then you can only go to the waste room at the rear of the cabin, where you can live about ten people, but the environment... Scold. There's still a month to go before you get to the next training venue, so it's up to you to decide what you choose. If you fancy any room, just knock on the door, and the people inside can't refuse the challenge. The rules are like this, and those who are capable live in it. ”
The wolf didn't say it explicitly, but the meaning was obvious.
There are really no requirements for choosing a room, but whether you can get a room or not requires strength.
They already knew exactly what the environment was inside the cabin, and the so-called waste room must be even more unbearable. Probably cockroaches and rats would not want to live in such an environment, let alone normal humans. At least Lu Chen and Mu Shuangying were reluctant, and they also clearly expressed their disgust.
"In addition, there is a sign on the door of each room, on which you can see the evaluation of the owner of the room, which is compiled by the leaders of the sect after the previous life and death eliminated. If you choose a room and really get a room, you just need to live in it, the sign has a formation setting, and it will change the information on it by itself. In addition, there is a manual under the pillow that explains what the rules will be for the next year and a half. That's all I have to say, I won't ask you anything until I reach my destination, so feel free to do whatever you want. ”
With that, the wolf drove the two out, closed the door again, and ignored them.
The foul cabin was filled with a fishy smell, no match for the sandalwood that filled the room. And the difference between the fragrance and the fishy smell also made Lu Chen's eyes quite unbearable.
They can only follow the rules here.
Behind him, there is another room, which is also occupied by newcomers who have experienced life and death.
There was indeed a wooden sign on the door, with a crimson color like blood, clearly written with the evaluation given by the head of the room's owner, and other information.
"Yuyuan realm, dagger, superior, waste. ”
Just a simple four-line word.
"The cultivation of the Yuyuan Realm, the Taoist weapon is a dagger, superior... Probably refers to the talent root bones, and the evaluation is a waste. ”
Mu Shuangying looked up, and his delicate face showed a little surprise.
"It should be the same three grades for all the places of life and death, scum, garbage, and waste, although it doesn't sound good, but it's clear that this person is the highest grade. If you choose him, it may be a little troublesome, especially if it is superior, it will make people care more... What about you, do you want to choose him?"
Lu Chen still looked at the wooden card.
In a moment, he stepped forward, reached out and knocked on the door, not looking for any other opponent.
Mu Shuangying raised his eyebrows, but there was no surprise. She knew very well what Lu Chen's personality was, and she didn't want to waste time on unnecessary things. And the owner of this room has already been so evaluated, obviously, those rooms behind it are not too weak, and the real weak are living in the waste room, and have even been thrown into the sea to feed those terrible strange fish.
Soon, the door was opened, and out of it came a plain-looking man.
There was a rather sharp cold light flashing in his eyes, and there was also an awe-inspiring killing intent revealed.
The general will meet, without saying a word, the dagger suddenly brought up a cold arc, and slashed straight towards Lu Chen's neck.
However, Lu Chen also seemed to have expected it, and immediately stepped back for half a minute, and the sharp dagger grazed his skin. At the same time, the black knife also appeared in his hand.
"Die!"
This person reacted extremely quickly, and with one blow, he flipped the dagger in an instant, and he was about to occupy the space under Lu Chen's feet, and the cold star flickered, coming towards the center of his eyebrows. Lu Chen's response was also very simple, he immediately raised his foot to make way of the space, and the black knife in his hand contained an awe-inspiring killing intent, and placed it on his waist like a sheath.
However, before the knife came out, the blood and qi in his body churned, and the other foot kicked out like lightning and landed directly on the man's lower abdomen.
With a muffled snort, Lu Chen's speed was something he couldn't cope with at all, and even though his body flew out upside down and slammed into the wooden wall of the room, he didn't directly break through the wall. The wall of this wooden plank was unexpectedly strong, and it probably also had the blessing of the Dao Scar Formation on it, otherwise the strength of Lu Chen's foot would be enough for him to be buried in the sea.
Although it didn't work out, it was clear that the man had no power to resist.
"Too weak. ”
Lu Chen snorted lightly, and the black knife in his hand was thrown violently, leaving a black light out of thin air, accurately piercing the man's heart and nailing it to the floor.
His face twitched, his eyes protruded, and his breath quickly dissipated completely.
"Does this guy really get the highest rating?"
Mu Shuangying's face was full of astonishment, and he was a little unable to react. There were no incidents in this battle, which was about to begin and end, and the original owner of the room was too dead to die.
Lu Chen didn't respond, only stepped forward silently to take back the black knife, and also threw the useless corpse directly through the window. After all, what he has mastered is the cultivation method of the Blood Heaven Great Sage, the strength of his body, the purity of his blood and qi, is not comparable to ordinary people, no matter the strength or speed, it is normal for people in the same realm not to be able to fight. What's more, his sword technique also came from the Blood Heaven Great Sage, but he didn't use it, and he didn't need to do so.
And Mu Shuangying didn't know all this, after all, no one had ever mentioned it to her.
The blood stains on the wooden board quickly disappeared, as if they were absorbed by some inexplicable existence, and it was probably also the effect of the Dao Scar Formation. Lu Chen didn't care, so it was better, saving the trouble of cleaning the room. And he, as usual, lay straight on the bed and rested, as if the murder had never happened.
