Chapter 49 Inquiry
At this time, Du Yuqi wanted to cut the chain off completely with another knife, but Changmei suddenly said in a hurry:
"No! Whether we can pass through the cargo hold safely next, I am afraid we will fall on this chain!"
After hearing Changmei's words, Du Yuqi's eyes suddenly brightened and said:
"Do you have a way to remove the breath from it to cover our whereabouts?"
Changmei said:
"I can try."
Next, when Changmei was fiddling with the chain, Du Yuqi went to check on Mali over there, but unfortunately he had died. He was actually shrunk by a circle at this time, and the blood and essence in his body were sucked out by this evil chain. The skin on the surface of his body was pale, and even deep wrinkles appeared on his face. No one knew how he escaped the trap and ran here.
Undead creatures roamed here. In order to prevent Mali's body from being used after death, Du Yuqi burned his body and only left the ornaments he wore as a token. At this time, the group was waiting for the work every time.

Compared to Du Yuqi's experience, Lin seemed to be much more relaxed.
The Yuexi Town where he was located was a beautiful town with more than a hundred families living in the town. Surprisingly, although it was small, it had everything, including grocery stores, blacksmith shops, lodgings, and wine shops.
Lin came to the town's lodging house and stayed there. He took a bath in a large wooden barrel filled with hot water on the balcony of the guest room. He looked at the big lanterns under the eaves and listened to the jingling sound of wind chimes when the wind blew. He felt very comfortable.
After the bath, the inn's waiter had already brought a mahogany tray with a bowl of fragrant tea in it. The fragrant tea leaves slowly expanded in the boiling water, and finally exuded the fragrance of cherry blossoms, which made people feel relaxed and refreshed, and the whole person's fatigue was swept away.
After asking, Lin learned that this kind of cherry blossom tea is a local specialty, which can only be successfully planted on the hillside of Yuelun Mountain behind. It must be combined with tea trees, soil, and water sources. None of them can be missing.
At the same time, Lin also heard some related rumors, that is, although there are only more than a hundred households in Yuexi Town, once the tea production season comes, merchants who come here to buy tea can be said to be everywhere. At the same time, there is a huge and mysterious cave on Yuelun Mountain, which produces rare mind crystals and strong breath, but there are also monsters entrenched in it. Some people even say that they heard the roar of a dragon in the cave, so in the winter when the monster activity enters the low ebb period, adventurers will come together to explore the cave to obtain mind crystals and strong breath.
The complete living facilities in Yuexi Town are prepared for these merchants and adventurers, but Lin came at an unfortunate time. It was neither the production period of cherry blossom tea nor the low tide of winter monster activity, so he felt that the town was deserted.
Seeing that the waiter was quite talkative, Lin began to inquire about the relevant legends and rumors. After all, Yun Mi appeared here hundreds of years ago. If there are any clues left, they can only be in these legends and rumors. If you ask directly, it is too purposeful and too ostentatious. It is best to inquire without leaving any trace.
After hearing this, the waiter told Lin that if he wanted to know these legends and anecdotes, then the Jiulong Dojo in the town and the Bai family in the town were the most suitable targets for inquiry, because the Jiulong Dojo was founded by a sage named Jiulong more than a hundred years ago. At this time, the one who was in charge of the dojo was his grandson Jiuli, who was passed down from generation to generation. The Bai family regarded themselves as the guardian family of Yuelun Mountain. Their ancestor Bai Ming died only ten years ago, but they usually lived in seclusion and rarely approached outsiders.
The beautiful scenery and quiet life of Yuexi Town could not calm Lin's mood. It seemed that there was a flame burning in his heart! He was so eager to get an answer and give his life a chance to change.
Either sublimate under the current situation, or break up completely! !
After experiencing the different lives on Earth, Lin finally began to face his inner contradictions. He had been carrying the hatred of his country and family, but he showed a cheerful side. He wanted to enjoy his life, but he could not completely let go of the pain of his country and family. He wanted to shoulder his country and family, but he was unwilling to indulge in hatred and lose his nature... Until he came back from Earth, he finally understood that he longed for freedom, which was not contradictory to the hatred of his country and family. In fact, he had to face the heavy responsibility on his shoulders to get real pleasure. So he was no longer hesitant, no longer hesitant, and after recognizing the goal, his actions became more decisive and firm.
Therefore, Lin was unprecedentedly impatient at this time. He hoped to obtain the information he wanted with the highest efficiency.
And if you want to get the information with the highest efficiency, it is nothing more than four words: coercion and inducement.
So, this night, Jiulong Dojo and Bai's family encountered trouble.
Big trouble.
Lin stood at their door with a black scarf on his face, and then asked to meet the owner of Jiuli and the head of the Bai family, Bai Lie.
There is no doubt that his request was rejected.
So Lin simply kicked the door and took action! Then he used inducement - he took out a large sum of money and threatened at the same time. Those who cooperated took the money and escaped the disaster, while those who did not cooperate could only bear Lin's irritability and anger.
Under such circumstances, Jiuli, the head of the Jiulong Dojo, was very cooperative and knew the current situation. After hearing that Lin was going to the Bai family next, he told Bai Ming, who had died ten years ago, that he had the habit of writing a diary.
However, the Bai family seemed very angry and even threw out the money Lin had taken out. However, it was useless. When Lin, with a gloomy face, punched a servant who was cursing and made him collapse on the ground, spitting blood, the cursing stopped abruptly. Next, when Lin was about to attack the rest of the people, Bai Lie finally gave in and handed over the ancestor's diary honestly. Although his eyes looked like he was almost cannibalistic, it was useless.
Next, Lin returned to the inn, removed his disguise, and began to analyze the intelligence he had obtained. He had already obtained a lot of detailed information from Jiuli, which was indeed much more detailed than the information he had obtained before. www.nsh.o
For example, why did Jiulong choose to settle here? It was because the school of thought he chose actually needed the thought crystals produced here to assist in cultivation. Therefore, Jiulong actually knew the situation on Yuelun Mountain very well. For example, there was indeed a powerful dragon soul on Yuelun Mountain. Its name was Natla. It was just that for some reason, it seemed to have fallen into a deep sleep for hundreds of years. The powerful dragon stone statue was guarding it.
At the same time, the real guards of Yuelun Mountain were a pair of twin giants, the ice stone giant Prusen and the flame giant Les. However, because the flame giant Les once defected to Natla and calculated Prusen, the two were mortal enemies.
After understanding the basic situation on Yuelun Mountain, Lin Ziran began to focus on investigating things related to Yun Mi. Unfortunately, there was no clue on Jiuli's side, but if you calculate carefully, the time when Natla's dragon soul was asleep seemed to coincide with the time when Yun Mi entered Yuexi Town!
Next, Lin began to read Bai Ming's diary. For an old man who has lived for more than a hundred years, even if the diary only records some important things, it is enough for Lin to read. There are six large volumes, which are 20 centimeters high when piled up. At the same time, Bai Ming's handwriting is very sloppy, which makes Lin look very confused. He even regrets that he should bring his secretary with him. He believes that if he is here, he will definitely get more valuable things from it.
As Lin studied Bai Ming's diary in depth, he suddenly realized that even if he couldn't find Yun Mi's whereabouts here, this place was still a place he had to come. The reason was one thing: the imperial seal!
The Natla who was entrenched here was definitely not simple! Although it only appeared in the form of a soul, Natla's dragon soul absorbed the mind of the holy land and the power of the heaven. It can be said to be extremely powerful and amazing!
