Chapter 1 Tang Seng's Letter
Dear Lin Jushi:
I wrote this letter very slowly because I know you can't read fast. Since you released the goldfish spirit, it rained twice this month, the first time it rained for ten days and the second time it rained for twenty days.
The vegetarian food in Chechi Kingdom is delicious and the toilets are very clean. You must come and try it next time you come.
Yesterday we went to buy naan bread. The waiter asked me if I wanted to cut two or four slices. I said two slices would be fine, and four slices would be too much to eat. It's late, so I'll stop writing here. p.s. I wanted to send you money, but the envelope has been glued!
Come and play with me when you have time
Please, please, please come! Help...
(Note: After the goldfish spirit converted to Buddhism, the aquatic creatures in Tongtian River became chaotic, and finally formed a situation where the old turtle spirit and the sea urchin king coexisted in Tongtian River. Tang Seng passed through Tongtian River at a loss under such circumstances and was naturally trapped in it.)
When everyone saw the content of this letter, they were all speechless. They were speechless about the nagging and face-saving of Brother Sanzang. Of course, from the three sloppy words at the end of the letter, it can be seen that his situation is really not good. After reading the letter, everyone got a prompt at the same time:
"You have received the task: Tang Seng's request for help. You can freely choose whether to accept it."
"S-level gold branch: Tang Seng's request for help. Save Tang Seng and enable him to continue his journey to the west freely."
"Complete this task and you will get at least three gold potential points."
"Tang Seng is blessed by the power of Buddha. He will not be harmed by monsters within 48 hours. If this event limit is exceeded, the task will fail. The person who accepts the task will suffer a penalty of 45 points of all attributes being reduced."
"This task can only be accepted by the reincarnation who has experienced the goldfish spirit conversion event."
"If you hold this letter for too long, the 48-hour time limit will be shortened. At present, the remaining time of the Buddha's blessing on Tang Seng is: 34 hours and 50 minutes."
Everyone was naturally excited when they saw the reward, and of course the punishment was also very scary. For any reincarnation, three gold potential points are undoubtedly considerable. Of course, the penalty of reducing all attributes by 45 points is also very scary.
Fang Lin calmly accepted the task and said:
"You should know why I didn't let you read the letter when you received it, because it's hard to resist not taking this task immediately after reading it, especially this kind of task that will fail within a limited time. But we were exhausted at the time, and the supplies and medicines were all used up, and the most important thing was mental fatigue. Things in the nightmare space, the greater the benefits, the greater the risks. So I would rather sacrifice some time to do the task, and let everyone relax completely and rest without distraction. Fortunately, we have detailed information about the environment in this Tongtian River plot mission, so we can be considered well prepared."
Fang Lin's arrangement was so that Lao Hu and the others had nothing to say. At this time, Fang Lin thought about it and called the wretched Fu again:
"Is there any news about the person I asked you to find?"
Wretched Fu immediately said:
"Yes, this is their number."
Not long after, an old man with a light blue cane - of course, only he knew his real age - appeared in front of everyone. There were also five guys holding slender Japanese swords beside him. This man was Babylon, who was completely defeated and subdued by Fang Lin in the battle with the goldfish spirit. His strength had obviously increased greatly at this time, which showed that he had seized the opportunity to brush points after the battle with the goldfish spirit and thus stood out.
"Meet the fool. Congratulations on obtaining the exclusive equipment." Babylon put his hand on his chest and bowed slightly.
Fang Lin asked curiously:
"How do you know this?"
Babylon smiled bitterly and raised the aqua blue staff in his hand and said:
"My child... He felt the terrible pressure of the equipment on the adult and was trembling."
Fang Lin was naturally very curious about Babylon calling his weapon "my child". Knowing that this staff might have a special meaning to Babylon, he did not ask much, but directly threw the letter of help from Tang Monk to Babylon.
"How is it? You got a lot of benefits from working with me last time, right? Now there is another opportunity in front of you, do you dare to take another gamble?"
The reason why Fang Lin chose Babylon instead of others is because he is not only a smart man, but also like himself, he can play a leading role in the team, so it is enough to convince him, and there is no need to argue for a long time because of the interests like other teams formed for interests. At present, what he can't afford to waste the most is time.
After reading Tang Seng's letter, Babylon's face changed several times! Finally, he slowly raised his head and said:
"What does the lord mean..."
Fang Lin said lightly:
"This matter is not much with you, and not much without you. The reason why I took the trouble to come here is that we are currently lacking some gold potential points."
Babylon said:
"If this task can be completed, then the six of us can get 18 gold potential points. So how much will the lord take from it?"
Fang Lin smiled and said:
"Considering the risks you have to take, I only need 8 gold potential points, right?"
Babylon's expression changed. For him, although he could not completely convince his companions like Fang Lin, he could still eat meat and let them drink soup. Babylon only needed to make five companions each Getting a few gold potential points is enough to convince everyone. In other words, if this trip can be successful, Babylon can get five gold potential points! This is a full five gold potential points that you can freely control! This is a huge wealth even for Hades and his ilk! The temptation for Babylon is greater!
Fang Lin continued to smile and said:
"The risk you have to take is to prevent me from treating you as sacrificial cannon fodder and chess pieces - but I didn't use you as cannon fodder during the battle with Goldfish. It makes no sense to do so in this mission now, right? Get rid of me. Apart from this possibility, I should save your lives, because every time one more person dies, it means that the gold potential points I obtain will shrink. "
Fang Lin's analysis made even the five ninjas behind him nod their heads. They also knew that they couldn't eat meat but they could still drink the soup. Now that Fang Lin had given this gift in vain, and there was a precedent for successful cooperation before, naturally he was absolutely convinced.
Babylon finally nodded. Ten minutes later, Fang Lin picked up the letter. The flames gradually devoured the letter, and then light shone out, forming a golden oval portal in the room, and everyone filed in. Enter and head to the mysterious and interesting world of Journey to the West.
"Start entering the nightmare world"
"Start matching data..."
"Start assimilating the characters into this world..."
"Start entering"
"During the Zhenguan period of the Tang Dynasty, more than 1,300 years ago...
The eminent monk Tang Sanzang made a great vow and resolutely went to the western country of Tianzhu, thousands of miles away from the Tang Dynasty, to worship Buddha and obtain scriptures in order to obtain more profound Buddhist teachings, the "Mahayana Sutra";
After Tang Monk uncovered the conspiracy of the tiger demon, deer demon, and sheep demon in the Chechi Kingdom, he took advantage of the situation and headed west again, this time arriving at the Tongtian River. After the goldfish spirit that was originally the overlord of the Tongtian River converted to Buddhism, the old turtle who was originally the god of the Tongtian River seized the opportunity and took advantage of the situation. He led a group of descendants to have a fierce confrontation with the sea urchin king who inherited the legacy of the goldfish spirit. The two sides were in a stalemate. state.
At this moment, Tang Seng was swept into the water and taken prisoner into the water house, waiting for outsiders to rescue him.
…
The place where Fang Lin and the others appeared was on a hill. In front of them was a huge long river. The running feeling was that it connected the distant mountains to the sky and the earth. The hazy mist evaporated from the river surface and lingered in the air. You could even see the other side. Gone. Only the vague and steep outline of the cliff can be seen, and only the sound of rolling waves lapping at the shore can be clearly heard.
In front of Fang Lin and the others, there was a mottled stone tablet covered with moss. The stone tablet was two meters high, with a huge stone turtle carved at the bottom. The turtle's beak was in the shape of an eagle, and there were curly hair-like textures on the carapace. It was intimidating to look at.
Ten characters are engraved on the stone tablet:
"A journey of eight hundred miles is the journey of an eternal young man!"
Except for Fang Lin, this was the first time for everyone to see such a vast and majestic river with their own eyes. From this, it can be inferred that fighting against the water tribe in it would almost have to be suppressed by nature first. .
Fang Lin said calmly:
"It stands to reason that the Nightmare Space will arrange plot characters for us at this time, allowing us to gain the ability to breathe underwater and fight. But now it seems that we have to find it ourselves."
Babylon's aqua blue cane suddenly appeared like a ripple, and he said slowly:
"The key should be on this stone tablet."
Fang Lin glanced at Babylon's cane. This equipment seemed to be able to provide hints on the progress of the mission! This point alone is unmatched by many silver plot equipment. However, Fang Lin also knew that there were many strange people and strange things in the nightmare world, so he did not ask questions, but pointed at the stone tablet and directly covered it with his mental power, frowning and said :
"This stone tablet seems to be just an ordinary stone tablet, huh? What is this?"
After Fang Lin strode over, he looked at the front of the stone monument, which was originally covered by vegetation. After Fang Lin brushed it, he suddenly noticed some black ashes and remaining paper ash.
"This is a sign of worship. It seems that this stone monument should be worshiped in a more formal way."
