I practice cultivation cautiously in a strange world

"Lin Feiyu, I met fellow Taoists from the Qinglin Clan when I was down there!"

Chen Lin saw the Qinglin tribesman Luo Xiaoyu was talking about in the market, and stepped forward to say hello in a friendly tone.

There are two people on the other side, both of them are handsome. Except for their faces, their exposed skin is covered with fine blue scales, making them look like demon monks.

"What's wrong, fellow Taoist?"

One of the slightly taller Green Scales glanced at Chen Lin, showing a defensive look.

Seeing the other party's attitude, Chen Lin knew that this race was difficult to contact and seemed to be very resistant to the human monks.

He pondered for a moment and said: "There are indeed some things that I want to discuss with you two. How about we find a spiritual food pavilion and I invite you two to eat and talk while we do it?"

"No need!"

The tall Green Scale tribe member immediately refused.

"Fellow Taoist, just tell me what you have to say. Please don't waste our time."

Chen Lin frowned slightly. Fang Gang's attitude was too blunt. If all the Qinglin tribe were like this, it would be difficult to get the Lantern Fruit.

However, this opportunity cannot be missed. He simply said bluntly: "I heard that the nobles have a kind of elixir called Lantern Fruit, and I am in urgent need of it, so I have taken the liberty to disturb you two. Please forgive me."

"Light-burning fruit? I've never heard of it. My fellow Taoist may have made a mistake. We, the Green Scale Clan, don't have this kind of thing."

He replied coldly, and the other party left with his companions.

Chen Lin looked at the other party's back, then told Luo Xiaoyu to continue paying attention, while he walked towards Qu Sanniang's shop.

The shop was still deserted.

Qu Sanniang sat on the chair boredly and saw Chen Lin's helpless expression after he came in.

"Fellow Daoist Lin, it's not easy to earn a spiritual crystal like yours. Tell me, what happened this time?"

In the past three years, Chen Lin had come to see her several times, making her regret selling the information about the Deng Deng Guo to him.

Chen Lin's face was expressionless.

"Shopkeeper Qu, I have already met the people of the Qinglin tribe, but they said that there is no Deng Leng fruit in their tribe. Please give me an explanation. You must know that I have been delayed here for more than three years because of your information. time."

"oh?"

Qu Sanniang sat up straight and asked in surprise: "Have the people from the Qinglin tribe come out of the mountain?"

Chen Lin looked at the other party coldly and said nothing.

"Haha, fellow Taoist, do you think I'm deceiving you?"

Seeing that Chen Lin was waiting silently, she said speechlessly: "I was talking about the leader of the Qinglin Clan having the Deng Leng Guo, not the Qinglin Clan. What's the point of looking for an ordinary clansman!"

Chen Lin frowned and recalled it, it seemed that the other party really said that.

His tone softened.

"I see, I was wrong to blame Shopkeeper Qu. Are you sure that the leader of the Green Scale Tribe has this thing?"

Qu Sanniang stretched her waist, stood up and said: "Of course I am sure, this is good, if you don't believe it. I can take you to visit Zhenguang Mountain, and I will definitely let you meet the clan leader, but..."

At this point, she made a gesture of rubbing her hands.

Chen Lin didn't expect that the other party would take him there in person, and he couldn't help but feel suspicious.

However, since he came to Qianyuan City, he has changed his appearance and has never shown anything that attracts attention. The Deng Deng Fruit is just a panacea for refining elixirs, and it is impossible for the other party to have any intentions because of this.

Thinking of this, he said in a deep voice: "The shopkeeper will ask you the price!"

"Three spiritual crystals!"

Qu Sanniang blurted out.

Chen Lin glanced at the other party and said calmly: "If Shopkeeper Qu can ensure that the Qinglin Clan Chief will sell the Lantern Fruit to me, I can accept the price."

In the past few years, he has made inquiries in many ways, and it turns out that the Lantern Fruit is indeed rare. Even with the prosperity of Qianyuan City, one has not appeared in several years. According to normal valuation, there are only five spiritual crystals.

Although the other party was just leading the way, if he could buy this thing directly, he would accept the 'intermediary fee' for the three spiritual crystals. Otherwise, with the attitude of the Qinglin tribesmen who refuse people thousands of miles away, he would risk it on his own There is definitely no hope if you come to the door.

He must refine the Golden Buddha Pill. As long as he builds the golden body, the Buddha's power will be generated by himself, which will be of vital help in eliminating demonic seeds.

Compared with the threat of demon species, there is no need to consider a few spiritual crystals at all.

Qu Sanniang shook her head and said: "I can only ensure that you meet the leader of the Qinglin tribe, and I can also ensure that the other party has the Lantern Fruit, but whether the other party is willing to trade with you is not something I can control. All I can do is try my best to help you convince the other party."

After a pause, she looked at Chen Lin and said: "I don't know what you need the Deng Deng Fruit for, but I can tell you for sure that in this Northern Wilderness Continent, except for the leader of the Green Scale Tribe, this thing is It can only exist in Split Fairy Mountain. If you think you can enter Split Fairy Mountain, just pretend I didn’t say anything.”

Chen Lin was silent for a moment after hearing this.

He nodded and said, "Then I'll trouble Shopkeeper Qu!"

After speaking, he took out three spiritual crystals and handed them to the other party.

Split Immortal Mountain is a famous forbidden land in the Northern Wilderness Continent. There are countless rare treasures inside, but it is also extremely dangerous. Even the strong Void Refiner dare not go deep into it, let alone him.

Although the other party is suspected of being alarmist, he really has no other channel now and can only endure the pain.

"readily!"

Seeing the spiritual crystal, Qu Sanniang suddenly smiled.

After putting away the spiritual crystal, he said: "Without further delay, let's set off now. The Qinglin Clan's time out of the mountain is very short every time, and there is no telling when it will be closed again."

The two walked out of the store. Qu Sanniang took out the formation talisman and activated the store's formation.

Chen Lin sent a message to Luo Xiaoyu so that he no longer had to stare at the two Green Scale people.

To be on the safe side, he still sent a message to Xiaocao and asked him to wait for him at the city gate.

Although Qu Sanniang's cultivation is still at the early stage of Nascent Soul, and he only came to find the other party on a temporary basis, so there shouldn't be any traps set, but he still needs to be on guard.

"Fellow Taoist, this companion has such a strong sword spirit!"

When Qu Sanniang saw the grass, she exclaimed.

"Shopkeeper Qu has good eyesight, and my little sister is indeed a swordsman."

Chen Lin explained.

He was quite helpless at this point. The sword intent on Xiaocao was getting stronger and stronger, and ordinary concealing treasures could not shield it at all. In order to reduce trouble, he basically did not take the other party out.

Xiaocao still stood silently behind Chen Lin with a look of not letting strangers in.

Qu Sanniang didn't care and said, "Let's go!"

Then the three of them used Escape Light to shoot away.

When he came to Zhenguang Mountain again, Chen Lin found that the fog here was much lighter, and he could vaguely see some strange-style buildings inside.

"Three fellow Taoists, please stay!"

As soon as the three people landed, two figures flew out from inside.

These two figures are also tall and handsome, and it is difficult to distinguish between male and female.

The bodies of the two were densely covered with scales, exuding very strange energy fluctuations. Especially one of them also had a green scale between his eyebrows. The aura on their bodies made Chen Lin feel a strong sense of danger.

"You three, our Green Scale Clan's headquarters is in front of us, please go around!"

The man with the scales between his eyebrows looked at Chen Lin and the others, then spoke expressionlessly.

Chen Lin glanced at Qu Sanniang, then saw the other party pat the storage bag and take out a palm-sized scale.

Without saying a word, he handed it over directly to the other party.

The other party's eyes flashed when he saw the scales. After checking it in his hand, he immediately clasped his fists and said, "It turns out that you are a distinguished guest attending the Blue Scales Association. Please come in!"

When Chen Lin heard this, he immediately knew that he had been cheated.

This Qu Sanniang obviously had something to do, so he just brought it along and earned three pieces of spiritual crystals.

Moreover, the Qinglin Club that the Qinglin tribe refers to feels like a trading gathering. The other party does not need to show any face, and can just propose a deal directly at the trade fair.

Although he was depressed, Chen Lin didn't care. Without the other party, he wouldn't be qualified to participate in this Qinglin Association.

As long as the other party brings him in and gives him the opportunity to trade with the leader of the Green Scale Clan, then the promise will be fulfilled, and if it is a trade fair, there may be other gains.

"These two people are my subordinates. According to the rules, I can bring two people in, right?"

Qu Sanniang's voice sounded.

The man from the Green Scale Clan returned the scales and said, "Okay, but please be sure to restrain your subordinates and not wander around, so as not to cause trouble."

Qu Sanniang took the scales in her hand, glanced at Chen Lin, and then walked into the mist.

Chen Lin and Xiaocao followed immediately.

"Manager Qu, why didn't you tell me that you were here to attend the trade fair so that I could make some preparations in advance."

He didn't accuse the other party of stealing his spiritual crystals, but he was worried that he didn't have enough spiritual crystals on him.

If the other party told him in advance, he could refine a batch of high-level elixirs and reserve more spiritual crystals to avoid missing opportunities when encountering treasures.

Qu Sanniang's face remained as usual and she said: "The Qinglin Fair is not an ordinary trade fair. The Qinglin Clan regularly sells some specialties of the clan. The Qinglin Clan is different from us monks. They don't need spiritual stones, spiritual crystals, elixirs, talismans, or magic weapons at all. They don’t need anything at all, they just need various items that are useful to them. There’s no final answer as to what items will be useful, so there’s no point in preparing them in advance.”

Chen Lin nodded.

In this case, it is indeed difficult to prepare.

But in this case, the matter of trading the Deng Deng Fruit has become uncertain, and it is not known what the clan leader needs.

At this time, Qu Sanniang said again: "And I can't inform you in advance. The time when the Qinglin clan opens the mountain gate is not fixed. I only felt the fluctuation of the scales after you entered the store."

Chen Lin wanted to ask again, but Qu Sanniang stopped in front of a strange-style building.

This is also the only building close to the surrounding mountains.

There were several people from the Green Scale Clan guarding the door. She stepped forward and handed over the scale, and then the three of them were brought inside.

First, we walked through a long corridor, and then there was a hall.

There were already some monks in the hall at this moment. Chen Lin glanced around and found that several of them were shopkeepers of large shops, and there were also several high-level monks wearing Qianyuan Sect costumes.

The location is fixed.

The Green Scale people led them to a seat at the back and turned around to leave.

Looking at this position arrangement, Chen Lin knew that Qu Sanniang's status was not high, but being invited meant that she was still recognized.

At least he, the shop owner, was not invited, and he didn't even hear about the Qinglin Club.
