I am cautiously cultivating immortals in a strange world

The old voice was very kind, but it sent chills down Chen Lin's spine.

This is the Nightmare Realm, and any living thing might be in great danger, not to mention that he didn't feel when the other party appeared at all.

Forced to calm himself down, he slowly turned his head.

Then he saw a white-bearded old man wearing a bamboo hat looking at him.

The other party was slightly thinner, but hale and hearty, holding a black stick-like object in one hand and a net bag in the other.

This look looks like a fisherman, but Chen Lin's eyes shrank.

Because the other party is no different from a normal person no matter how he looks, how he behaves, or the tone of his speech!
In the Nightmare Realm, no matter what kind of grotesque creatures are not uncommon, only normal humans are very rare, especially those with normal thinking and wisdom, they are not common, and they are extremely dangerous.

The most important thing is that he can't distinguish whether the opponent is a creature from the nightmare world or an outsider like him!
In addition, Chen Lin found that the black wooden stick in the opponent's hand seemed to be very similar to the shape of the nightmare object that pulled him into this place.

No, it's exactly the same, it's just one thing.

Although he was puzzled in his heart, he didn't look any further, quickly retracted his gaze, and then secretly sensed it.

But even at such a close distance, he still couldn't feel any energy fluctuations on the opponent, as if he was just an ordinary mortal.

But how can it be mortals who can appear here, the more this is the case, the more dangerous it is.

"The old man misunderstood. I just passed by by chance and didn't fish here."

After thinking about it in his heart, Chen Lin answered truthfully.

Then he looked at the other party vigilantly, and if he touched any rules, he was ready to use the secret technique of spiritual consciousness to fight back at any time.

Originally, he wanted to directly ask if the other party was an outsider, but he gave up.

In the Nightmare Realm, one can not speak without speaking, otherwise, if one says something wrong, it may cause serious consequences.

However, the old man did not appear abnormal, but shook his head regretfully, saying: "That is such a pity, the fish in this lake are very delicious, and if you are lucky, you may even get unexpected benefits."

After finishing speaking, he put down the net bag and pulled it against the black wooden stick, and the wooden stick became longer.

Chen Lin suddenly showed surprise.

This wooden stick turned out to be a retractable fishing rod!
If this thing is a fishing rod, then He Changhong must have fished here before. I don't know if his death was related to fishing.

While he was thinking about it, he saw the old man flick the fishing rod vigorously, and then quietly looked at the water surface.

Chen Lin raised his eyebrows.

Jiang Taigong only has no bait when fishing, but this old man doesn't even have a fishing line. What is he fishing for? Is he lonely?
Suppressing his curiosity, Chen Lin didn't continue to look at it, but slowly stepped back.

At this time, his body has begun to show a sense of repulsion, and he plans to retreat into the woods and wait for his return, so as not to be discovered by the other party.

He retreated very carefully and was always on guard.

But until he entered the woods, the old man didn't look back at him.

Just as he breathed a sigh of relief, feeling the body's rejection getting stronger and stronger, and was about to leave, the old man's voice suddenly sounded again.

"It's not good for fishermen to return empty-handed. Not only will it reduce their luck, but it may even bring about unpredictable consequences."

Chen Lin was shocked when he heard this.

Without the slightest hesitation, he immediately took out the Xianji stone, and the feeling of repulsion disappeared.

Then he walked out of the woods, clasped his fists at the old man, and said respectfully: "I don't know what the old man said, what should I do?"

Since the other party made a reminder, he must treat it with caution, because it may also be a manifestation of the rules.

Just like when she entered the scarecrow hut for the first time, Niuniu gave a reminder that if she leaves without knitting a scarecrow, she will become a scarecrow.

If you are disobedient and just wait to be ostracized and leave, the end is really unpredictable.

If it turns into a fish, it's over.

"That's what I said. Don't you understand the reason why fishermen can't return empty-handed? Don't make any noise. You'll scare my fish away!"

The old man's voice sounded again, with displeasure.

Then he saw his body shake suddenly, he lifted the fishing rod suddenly, and a palm-sized fish jumped out of the water.

Obviously there was no fishing line, but the fish seemed to be pulled by something, and was lifted to the shore with the movement of the fishing rod, and was caught by the old man and put into the net bag.

While putting the net bag into the water, the old man said excitedly, "I didn't expect my luck to be so good today. I just came here to gain something. I will come here more often in the future."

After speaking, he threw the fishing rod out again.

The other party ignored him, Chen Lin hesitated for a while, and did not ask any more questions, but tried to take out the black short stick.

Items in the nightmare world can be taken out even in the projected state, and the feel is very real.

He observed it carefully, imitating the old man's previous move, grabbed the front end and pulled it hard.

The 'stick' was suddenly pulled out.

And it got longer and longer, and finally turned into a fishing rod exactly like the old man!
Chen Lin was secretly surprised, and shook the fishing rod, feeling that it was very strong, and at this time a strange energy fluctuation was born.

Following his example, he also made a rod swing and threw the fishing rod out.

Then sit on a smooth stone, wait quietly, and at the same time secretly thank you for bringing this fishing rod in, otherwise you will be in a dilemma.

But it's also possible that if he didn't bring a rod, he wouldn't be an angler, exempt from the 'go home empty handed' rule.

After sitting for a while, Chen Lin became anxious again.

Because he doesn't know how to count the fish biting the bait and when to lift the rod.

Also.

He is not a creature of the Nightmare Realm, so he cannot stay here indefinitely, and he doesn't have many Xianji stones. If he can't catch fish before the Xianji stones are exhausted, he doesn't know what the consequences will be.

The more anxious you are, the less you can catch.

As time passed, the old man had already caught several fish in a row, but he didn't even have one.

The fishing rod is completely unresponsive.

The energy of a Senji Stone is exhausted.

Chen Lin couldn't sit still anymore. He felt that his method was wrong. It was impossible to use only a fishing rod without a fishing line, even without a hook and bait. How could he catch fish?
The old man must have used some special method!

Although asking rashly may have some unpredictable consequences, or offend the other party, Chen Lin still decided to ask for advice.

But before he opened his mouth, he saw a black line shooting from the lake.

Chen Lin was taken aback, thinking it was some kind of monster, but before he could react, the black line was already approaching.

It turned out to be a small boat.

small wooden boat.

A huge golden toad lay on the bow.

With the speed at which the opponent controlled the wooden boat, he might not be able to run away if he wanted to, and the opponent did not directly attack, so Chen Lin simply sat there and did not move.

Because the old man didn't move either, it meant he was familiar with this monster.

"Two, pay the fishing money!"

Jin Chan spit out human words with a very loud voice.

Chen Lin was taken aback when he heard the words, feeling that the lake still has its owner, and there is a fee for fishing.

He looked at the old man, he didn't know what the fee was, so let's see how the other party operates.

The old man showed an angry face, and yelled at Jin Chan: "You toad, what are you doing shouting so loudly, you scared the old man's fish away, don't you see how reluctant the old man caught today!"

After finishing speaking, he took out a nightmare coin and threw it over, saying: "Leave quickly, don't delay the old man's fishing!"

Jin Chan swallowed the Nightmare Coin in one gulp, and didn't get angry because of the old man's words.

Seeing this, Chen Lin was stunned.

It turned out that the fishing fee was Nightmare Coins. No wonder there were so many Nightmare Coins stored in the box besides the fishing rod. Feelings were used to pay the fee.

Although he was a bit reluctant, but this was not the time to be stingy, he could only take out a nightmare coin and threw it over like the old man.

The golden toad swallowed it into its mouth, and without speaking again, urged the wooden boat to turn into a black line and go away.

I don't know if it was because the fish were surprised, but after the wooden boat left, the old man didn't catch a single fish.

Chen Lin felt that the other party's anger was getting stronger and stronger, and he didn't dare to ask any more questions. The other party dared to scold Jin Chan, and his strength must not be low. He might not be able to deal with it if he was annoyed.

suddenly.

He felt the fishing rod in his hand sank inexplicably, he reacted immediately, and hurriedly lifted the rod with all his strength.

Something the size of a little finger jumped out of the water.

Chen Lin didn't care to check carefully, and directly threw the fishing rod to the shore, fearing that the fish caught would run away.

No matter what he is, as long as there is something to gain, it is not empty-handed.

He stood up and went to the grass on the shore, and found a blue shrimp bouncing there. He tried to touch it with a fishing rod, but the shrimp didn't intend to fight back.

He picked up another branch and picked it up after repeated tests to confirm that it was not dangerous.

Then he put away the Xianji stone, and then tried to restore the fishing rod to its original state. He grabbed the slight part of the rod and sent it in, and the fishing rod really retracted!
Chen Lin was amazed in his heart, put away the fishing rod, and slowly retreated towards the woods.

"Hmph, it's actually satisfying to catch small shrimps all the time. If it's all fishermen like you, the toad might wake up laughing if it's not sleep."

The old man didn't look back, but he seemed to know Chen Lin's actions like the back of his hand. Just as he put away the fishing rod, the other party's voice rang out, full of sarcasm.

Chen Lin showed joy when he heard it.

Although the other party's words were ugly, he didn't say anything about the unforeseen consequences of returning empty-handed. That is to say, he has satisfied the rules and can leave!
Sure enough, the old man didn't say a word until the feeling of repulsion became stronger and stronger, and he was excluded from the Nightmare Realm.

Just before leaving, Chen Lin saw the other party raise the pole again.

A shiny golden box-like thing was fished up.

In the dimness, it seemed to hear the old man's hearty laughter.
