Lin Yu swaggered out of the county town, came to the big black bull, and said with a smile:
"Nothing, just came out to complete some tasks!"
Although Lin Yu spoke sincerely, Da Hei Niu didn't believe a word of it.
"Is it that simple?"
"Mission accomplished?"
Big Black Bull asked tentatively, staring at Lin Yu's facial expression, as if he wanted to see Lin Yu's deepest thoughts from it.
Unfortunately, since what Lin Yu said was the truth, Big Black Bull couldn't figure out anything.
“It’s so simple!”
"Why would I leave the city if it wasn't to complete the mission?"
Lin Yu said this naturally and casually, and at the same time prepared to leave. Completing the task was important.
...
...
However, just after Lin Yu had walked away, he suddenly turned back.
"By the way, you must break through quickly, and then pass the level and enter the county town!"
Lin Yu spoke to everyone very seriously, but everyone seemed a little confused by his reminder.
Do I need you to remind me of this?
However, Big Black Bull seemed to have thought of something and asked Lin Yu, "Is there any great opportunity in this county?"
Lin Yu nodded and said, "That's all I have to say. It's not convenient for me to explain it clearly. Anyway, you will find out when you go in quickly!"
After revealing a little bit of information, Lin Yu left directly.
It would be bad to say more, and they might not believe it.
After Lin Yu left, everyone practiced more diligently.
No matter whether it is Da Hei Niu, Lu Yunfei and other people who are already practicing quickly and diligently, or talented players like Xiao Pang and Huang Jiuxiao, or even the second senior brother who has always been in a bad state, they are now in deep retreat.
For them, the minimum goal is to reach the Mahayana stage.
At the same time, Lin Yu had already moved away from Pingyan County and came to a place called Queyue Mountain.
This place is where Lin Yu took on his first mission.
The first task that Lin Yu accepted was: to come to Queyue Mountain and successfully capture an earth-immortal-level crane, and then bring it back to Pingyan City!
If you look at the task description alone, it really isn't that difficult.
However, after Lin Yu came to Queyue Mountain, he deeply understood that there is no such thing as a free lunch in this world.
Theoretically speaking, Lin Yu's current strength is enough to rival that of an ordinary celestial being, or even far surpass it. It should be easy for him to capture an earthly immortal-level crane, right?
However, the Queyue Mountain is tens of thousands of miles long, with high mountains, deep waters, and dense forests, and it seems to be hiding countless dangers.
Lin Yu only used his super penetration to take a quick look and he had already discovered no less than a hundred demon king-level monsters.
In other words, even in the demon world, this kind of land is where the overlords live.
However, now Lin Yu is asked to go in and capture a crane of the earth immortal level.
This is just crazy!
No wonder one mission can earn you 500,000 fairy stones, and 500,000 fairy stones can be exchanged for a priceless inheritance!
This mission is completely different from what Lin Yu imagined!
However, just as Lin Yu was deep in thought, he suddenly heard a seasoned and deep voice coming from the depths of the dense forest ahead. After listening carefully, he actually felt that there was some other meaning.
"Watching the chess pieces rot, and the chopping of woods clink."
"I walked slowly at the valley entrance, selling firewood and wine, laughing wildly and enjoying myself."
"In the autumn, I lay on the roots of a pine tree facing the moon, and sleep till dawn."
"I recognize the old forest, climb the cliff and cross the ridge, use an axe to cut the dead vines. I collect them into a load, sing and go to the market, and exchange them for three liters of rice."
"There is no more competition, the current price is average, there is no scheming, no honor or disgrace, and a peaceful and long life."
"When we meet, we are either immortals or Taoists. Sit quietly and talk about Huangting."
After listening to this Taoist song, Lin Yu couldn't help but stand there in a daze.
This is not just an ordinary folk song, it is almost a Taoist scripture.
How could Lin Yu not be shocked to hear such meaningful things in this deep forest?
Originally, Lin Yu had already backed out, but now he changed his mind and walked directly in the direction where the sound came from.
After a while, Lin Yu saw a middle-aged woodcutter wearing coarse cloth and hemp shoes chopping down dead trees with his axe.
Although he was a little confused as to why there were people cutting trees in such a deep forest, Lin Yu still walked up to greet them:
"My name is Lin Yu. I came to this mountain by mistake and met this brother."
"Just now, I heard you singing about being either an immortal or a Taoist, and sitting in meditation and talking about Huang Ting. I thought you must be an immortal, but why do you have to chop wood here?"
When the woodcutter saw someone coming and greeting him, he stepped forward and smiled and said:
"Brother Lin, you misunderstood me. I am just a rough man who can only chop wood. How can I know how to cultivate immortality?"
"The song you just mentioned was also taught to me by an old immortal in the mountains. He said it can calm the mind and prolong life."
Hearing this, Lin Yu glanced at the woodcutter uncertainly again, until a row of clear information about the woodcutter appeared in front of him, and then he was sure that he was indeed an ordinary man.
[The woodcutter at the foot of the Crescent Moon Mountain: He makes a living by collecting firewood all year round. He has been instructed by immortals, so he has a connection with immortals, or he may have a deeper identity, but it is unknown! 】
Although the information was vague, it was indeed the same as what the woodcutter said, so Lin Yu had no choice but to believe it.
"Excuse me, bro, where is that old immortal now?"
The woodcutter replied, "Brother Lin, look, it's only twenty miles from here."
The woodcutter pointed to a platform on the hillside ahead. Lin Yu looked over and saw the mist curling up, unfathomable and mysterious.
It seems that there is indeed an expert in charge.
"Brother, I have another unwelcome request. Could you please tell me more about this old immortal?"
Lin Yu did not rashly go to find that old immortal, but continued to ask.
The woodcutter also knew everything and said with a smile: "That's not difficult at all. Let me tell you!"
"Speaking of this old immortal, he is truly a god!"
"When I was young, I also went out to explore the world, but I didn't make any name for myself, so I had to return home in poverty."
"At that time, I was disheartened and ready to end my life, but I never expected that an old immortal with white hair and beard and wearing a Taoist robe would appear behind me. The old immortal gently waved the whisk in his hand and saved me."
"To this day, I still remember what the old immortal said that day. I will never forget it for the rest of my life!"
Hearing this, Lin Yu couldn't help but become interested and asked quickly:
"What?"
