Chapter 118: Before the Secret Realm Trial, I Saw an Old Acquaintance
When Lin Molin followed the Jiang family to the gate of a dilapidated courtyard.
The corners of her mouth twitched violently.
The vermilion gate of the compound was already mottled, its carvings blurred by the erosion of time. The bricks and stones of the courtyard wall were damaged in many places, and the weeds on the wall swayed in the wind.
A gust of wind blew, and it looked even more bleak.
"Master, although the mansion is a little run-down, it's spacious! Wait for us to repair it, it will be quick!"
Jiang Zhen's face was almost covered with embarrassment, and he quickly rubbed his hands and went forward to make amends.
It is really hard to find such a large courtyard. After all, people live long lives, and there are very few courtyards that can be vacant.
Lin Molin nodded, and everyone in the Jiang family started to get busy.
The painter was flying with a sword, moving nimbly through the air.
Some flew onto the rooftops to pick up broken tiles, some used magic to clean up the yard garbage, some mowed the lawn, and some used water spirit roots to clean the tables and benches...
In an instant, the dilapidated courtyard became lively.
The servants in the surrounding mansions frequently looked out, watching the group of people working with curiosity.
But he showed no intention of stepping forward to help.
Half an hour later, Jiang Zhen and everyone else cleaned up the dilapidated courtyard.
It doesn't look so shabby anymore.
Seeing everyone busy, Lin Molin took Bai Yu for a stroll on the street.
After buying Bai Yu a string of candied haws, the two of them wandered aimlessly along the street, looking left and right.
"Have you heard? It is said that the Muzi Secret Realm will open early this year!"
Next to the stall, two people were discussing the Muzi Secret Realm in low voices.
When Lin Molin heard this, he wanted to watch the fun and paused for a moment. A hint of curiosity welled up in his heart. Muzi Secret Realm?
"This Muzi Secret Realm is not an ordinary place. It is said to be full of dangers, but it also hides countless magical medicines and treasures."
An old man stroked his beard and felt that he knew a lot about it, so he wanted to explain it to this group of ignorant people.
"That's right, especially the peach tree in there. It's said that the peach tree blooms and bears fruit every thousand years. Although the peaches are only as big as plums, eating them can increase your cultivation!" another person added excitedly.
"It's not your turn to increase your cultivation. To qualify for the secret realm trial, you either have to pay 100 high-grade spirit stones or be among the top three in the sect. Otherwise, you won't have any chance."
At this time, another person also joined the discussion. Although he looked down on others, his face was full of regret.
They can’t even get enough spirit stones, let alone be in the top three of the sect.
Lin Molin was filled with curiosity. Muzi Secret Realm? Peach Tree?
She remembered that when she was in Platinum City, the sect competition was all about competing for the qualification to enter some secret realm.
Could this secret realm be the tomb of the Flower Spring God she had entered before?
Thinking back to when she left, she didn't have time to take the peach tree away, so now she occasionally wakes up in shock in her sleep, feeling that she has lost a lot.
If I could go there again, wouldn’t I be able to take the peach tree into my own space? ! !
It makes me excited just thinking about it!
She hurried over and joined the gossip.
"Excuse me, where can I sign up for this secret realm trial?"
As soon as Lin Molin finished her words, the crowd that was originally discussing lively suddenly quieted down, and everyone turned to look at her.
A young man looked her up and down. Although he didn't know her cultivation level, he was a little skeptical. "Miss, don't you know how dangerous this Muzi Secret Realm is? Half of the people are killed every time. Not everyone can participate in the trial?"
You go there alive but cannot come back. Opportunities are precious, but life is more precious. It’s not worth it, it’s not worth it.
Lin Molin laughed softly. This was not the point. Opportunities were definitely not so easy to obtain. She understood, she understood everything!
"I know the dangers are there, but where there are treasures, there must be danger. Please let me know where to register."
Seeing her resolute attitude and her determination to "die", everyone stopped talking and tried not to persuade her to die. After all, those who participated were either rich or powerful.
This girl belongs to the former. These wealthy cultivators with spirit stones are very confident, and they all have some "hatred of the rich."
A kind old man pointed her in a direction and said, "The registration is at the City Lord's Mansion, but the registration deadline is only a few days away. If you want to go, you'd better hurry."
Lin Molin bowed and thanked him, already having a plan in mind.
She took Bai Yu's hand and walked quickly towards the City Lord's Mansion.
The man and the beast arrived at the City Lord's Mansion, only to see that quite a few people had gathered at the door, all of whom had come to sign up for the Muzi Secret Realm Trial.
Lin Molin and Bai Yu lined up and waited patiently.
Finally, it was their turn. The official in charge of registration glanced at them and said indifferently, "100 high-grade spirit stones per person."
After Lin Molin paid the spirit stones to register, he was about to leave when he saw a group of people following a reception guard to the city lord's mansion.
Among that group of people, Lin Molin saw a familiar figure.
She curled her lips and said, "Interesting!"
He turned around, took Bai Yu's hand and walked back, disappearing into the bustling street.
Xiu Yuhan suddenly felt a gaze falling on him and quickly raised his head. His handsome face made the women around him exclaim in surprise.
He naturally knew how lethal his appearance was, and he was already accustomed to the obsessed gazes of those women.
Xiu Yuhan flicked his sleeves lightly, a confident smile appearing on the corner of his mouth.
I'm afraid no one can match my grace and elegance.
Whether in strength or appearance, he has absolute confidence, and those ordinary people can only look up to his brilliance.
He walked slowly forward with graceful steps under the gaze of everyone, completely forgetting that he had just raised his head to search for the gaze falling on him, but none of this mattered.
Maybe it was a woman who admired him and was secretly looking at him, so he didn't take it to heart.
He enjoyed the feeling of being the center of attention. He was the center of the world.
When Lin Molin returned to the mansion, steaming hot meals were prepared for her.
Although they were all common spiritual food, they tasted very good. She, Baiyu and Xiaoli ate until their stomachs were full and stuffed.
Just as she was leaning back in her chair and sighing comfortably, a little girl of two or three years old appeared at the door.
He was peeking out from the door, chewing a steamed bun with great enthusiasm.
Lin Molin thought the girl was cute and waved to her, "Girl, come here!"
The little girl was stunned for a moment, and a hint of hesitation flashed in her big round eyes.
Biting the steamed bun, he slowly ran towards Lin Molin with his short legs.
She looked up at Lin Molin timidly, with a steamed bun stuffed in her mouth and her cheeks bulging, looking funny and cute.
Lin Molin held the little girl in his arms and whispered softly, "You are so cute! What's your name? Why are you here alone?"
The little girl swallowed the steamed bun in her mouth and answered in a baby voice: "My name is Xiao Ling'er!"
After saying that, he looked at the big chicken leg that Bai Yu was gnawing on next to him and swallowed his saliva.
Bai Yu was in a dilemma whether to eat or not eat the chicken leg. He simply handed the chicken leg to Xiao Ling'er and said, "Here you go!"
