I practice cultivation cautiously in a strange world

"Can the teleportation channel in Huangtian Continent still be used?"

Chen Lin continued to ask.

Zhou Shiwu immediately replied: "Back to Master, the teleportation array has long been beyond the distance, and the floating islands used for transit have also flown far away."

Seeing Chen Lin's ugly face, he hurriedly spoke again: "But the grade of the Mandarin Duck Stone in Master's hand is very high. As long as you are close to a certain range of Ruyi Island, you can sense the location here, so Master doesn't have to worry too much."

Chen Lin shook his head.

Yuanyang Stone's induction was useless, there were countless dangers in the void, and even he did not dare to take risks easily.

After pondering for a while, he said: "Go to the nearby floating island and try to find a way to get to the Huangtian Continent. If you can't find it yourself, hire more people to go to more floating islands to explore. Don't worry about property. How many can you hire?" Just hire as many as you want!”

Finding people is different from rescuing people. It has nothing to do with the level of cultivation, so this method can only be used.

Zhou Shiwu took the order and left.

Chen Lin returned to the secret room and asked the blind girl and Xiaocao to guard him while he entered the scene in Zhiwu County.

He was going to Tiancang Realm. Dong Yunqiu said that he had found two more delicacies, but only the owner could make them. Moreover, they were all dishes and were not conducive to preservation. He wanted to get the finished products back and donate them immediately.

The county seat has not changed much.

The old housekeeper and Liu Sanniang are still running the bun shop. With the help of Chen Lin, and the special situation of the creatures in the nightmare world, they don't have to worry about longevity for the time being.

But they couldn't make soul buns, and business was very cold.

"How about it, has anything important happened in these years?"

After being invited into the inner house, Chen Lin directly asked about the situation.

The old housekeeper immediately replied: "Reporting to your lord, there are no other matters. However, a new county magistrate has come to the county government office, and he came here to inquire about your situation."

"oh?"

Chen Lin was surprised.

Unexpectedly, after not coming for a while, the position of the county magistrate was actually occupied.

But he was just surprised and didn't care.

He did have the idea of ​​becoming a county magistrate before, but after learning more about the Nightmare Realm on Food Island, he was no longer interested in the county magistrate. In comparison, the title was more important.

However, the county magistrate is basically the owner of this scene and has the power to issue low-level road guides, so we should pay attention to it.

"Tell me carefully about this county magistrate's information."

Chen Lin ordered to speak.

The old housekeeper immediately introduced him, but the new county magistrate was relatively mysterious and he didn't know much.

"Are you saying that this county magistrate suddenly appeared and is not originally from Zhiwu County?"

Chen Lin grasped the key points.

If you are not a person in this scene, you are an outsider. The rules of creatures in each scene of the nightmare world are different, and it is difficult to intersect with each other.

"Sir, this person is indeed not from Zhiwu County. We have never seen him before."

Liu Sanniang answered from the side.

Chen Lin touched his chin and suddenly said: "Since the new county magistrate took office, has anyone come here begging for steamed buns?"

The two old housekeepers were a little confused. They didn't know why Chen Lin asked like this, but they didn't dare to ask. They shook their heads together.

"Okay, you go about your business, I'll go to the county government office to check on you."

After understanding, Chen Lin stood up and left.

County government.

After giving his name and notification, he was immediately taken to the main hall, where Chen Lin met the new county magistrate.

The opponent is also a human race, he looks like a middle-aged man. Judging from the fluctuations on his body, it is a projection, but his cultivation level is not low.

"Listen to what my housekeeper said, the county magistrate is looking for me?"

Chen Lin cupped his hand, showing some respect.

The county magistrate looked at Chen Lin, then immediately left his seat and stepped forward: "Fellow Daoist Chen, you have made it so hard for me to find him!"

"Why do you say this, sir?"

Chen Lin pretended to be confused.

Then he said: "Your Excellency is the lord of a county, what else do you need from me, a small commoner?"

The county magistrate also realized that he was too eager and returned to his seat with a sneer.

Then he said: "Everyone is an outsider. Why should Fellow Daoist Chen ask questions knowingly? This place is very evil. I have been searching for so many years but I still can't find the mission to leave. Since Fellow Daoist Chen is also a projection body, he must know where the mission is. Please also ask Fellow Taoist, please point me to a clear path!”

After saying that, he hugged his fists.

Chen Lin showed a look of surprise.

"It turns out that this is something that is easy to talk about."

Regarding the mission, he did not want to hide it. Trapping the other party here would not do him any good, but would instead attract hatred.

But since he is not related to the other party, he cannot give it away for free. There must be some benefit.

So he changed the subject and said, "I don't know how the county magistrate got to sit on the throne of this county magistrate. Can you tell me about it?"

When the middle-aged man heard this, he immediately calmed down.

He is also a person who has been practicing for many years, and he knows Chen Lin's purpose by observing his words and expressions.

After thinking for a while, he said: "My name is Zhang Zitong. I am a monk at the seventh level of Daoyun. My fellow Taoist has strong soul power and must be higher in cultivation than me. But I don't dare to be called "sir" by you. Just call me by my name."

Chen Lin smiled and did not reveal his true cultivation level.

However, in the nightmare world, he is indeed stronger than his opponent. If he hadn't been condensing his soul power, the opponent would probably think of him as a strong one.

At this time, Zhang Zitong spoke again: "As for how I obtained the status of county magistrate, it was because in a strange scene, I first received a mission invitation letter. After completing the mission, I received an appointment document. And then he was sent to this scene and became a county magistrate.”

"I see."

Chen Lin suddenly realized.

He knew about the appointment document that Zhu Sankui wanted to kill Xiong Ziqi and seize the county magistrate's throne because he got the appointment document. Now the other party's spiritual treasure is still in his storage ring.

However, the appointment document has a name on it and is an exclusive item. Others cannot use it even if they snatch it.

He was no longer interested in the position of county magistrate, and was more curious about the process by which the other party obtained the appointment documents.

So he didn't hide it and asked directly: "Zhang Daoyou said that the task was completed through the task invitation letter. I don't know what the task content is and how difficult it is. Can you tell me?"

Zhang Zitong looked at Chen Lin and was a little confused about Chen Lin's question.

But now he had something to ask for, so he didn't ask any more questions and explained directly: "The content of the mission is very strange. There are no swords and swords, nor is it a person or treasure hunt, but an exam!"

"take an exam?"

Chen Lin was stunned for a moment, thoughtful.

Zhang Zitong nodded and said: "Yes, it's an exam, but it's not just one exam, but many times. The questions are not limited to theory, but also practical operations, such as solving cases, quelling chaos, etc. Fortunately, I am also the leader of a sect. I have a lot of experience in management, and I managed to pass a few levels, but I couldn't pass the last level, and I was almost wiped out, but I managed to succeed by luck with a treasure I obtained before."

Then he smiled bitterly and said: "Originally, I thought that after becoming the county magistrate, I would become the master of this place, and I could come and stay as I pleased. But I didn't expect that I would still be restricted by the rules. If I had known this, I would have never risked my life. Doing tasks.”

Chen Lin ignored the other party's complaints and fell into thinking.

The other party's situation is of great reference to him.

When a county magistrate is appointed, the task is to administer a party's examination, so what will be the task of the title?

If it was going to be an exam, then he really didn't know what to do.

Examinations were not his strong point, especially cultural theoretical knowledge, which he had never studied.

However, Chen Lin felt that knighthood tasks should be different from civilian missions. Under normal circumstances, knighthoods are obtained through military exploits. The task content is more likely to be leading troops to fight, or fighting against powerful enemies.

However, this information opened his mind. When he was thinking about what the knighthood mission would be, he never thought about the exam, but now he had to prepare for it.

After thinking about it, Chen Lin asked about the details of the task, and the other party answered patiently.

"Which interface do fellow Taoists come from, and how is the cultivation environment there?"

After the inquiry was completed, Chen Lin began to ask for other information.

Now that the other party wants something from him, it is more convenient to ask him. If he tells the other party the mission of leaving here, it is not certain whether he will be so easy to talk to.

"I come from the Tianxuan Realm, have you heard of it, Fellow Daoist Chen?"

Zhang Zitong said a name that surprised Chen Lin. (End of chapter)
