The 208th chapter is full of thorns
"The same wooden house as fellow Daoist Du, the nineteenth room is a charming woman inside. This woman has a hot figure, a sweet appearance, and a harmless face, but her heart is extremely vicious.
Moreover, this woman also practiced a technique of charming confusion. A male monk was not careful in front of her, but he would suffer a great loss. I heard that this woman had already colluded with other monks and was ready to take an opportunity to attack fellow Daoist Du.
There is also the last room in the thirteenth row..."
After Yuan Li nodded, he spoke slowly and said to Du Fan one by one.
Du Fan had no expression on his face and even had a faint smile, but his heart had already sunk, and a cold light was hidden deep in his eyes.
After a long time, it was not until he spoke more than ten people in one breath that Yuan Li paused, with an intriguing smile on his face and said:
"As far as I know, I have already said that I have talked to fellow Daoist Du. As for the others, I cannot be too sure, but Daoist Du still needs to be on guard."
"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Yuan, for telling me so much. If this matter is true, even if I owe fellow Taoist a favor." Du Fan's eyes flashed and he bowed his hands.
Yuan Li waved his hand and sighed:
"Fellow Daoist Du, you need to be polite. I will say this below, but there is no intention to ask for favors from you. It's just that the probability of joining our group is not low. If you make a mistake, it will be extremely unfavorable for me personally.
In addition to the Qi Refining Cultivator in the Valley, fellow Daoist Du must be extra careful when interacting with Foundation Building.
The seniors of Crescent Island have bad tempers, especially the horse hall master who is in charge of our valley. This person is extremely arrogant. There are at least ten young female cultivators in this valley, all of whom are his furnace and cauldron.
For a female cultivator, as long as she can show obedience, there will be no big problem in front of this horse hall master.
In addition to this hobby, this person is also gloomy and sarcastic. If he is unhappy, he will kill people at will. This kind of thing has been caused many times in the past and will not be investigated by the superiors.
Therefore, monks like you and me should be more careful in front of the horse hall master. No matter how great the injustice is, they must not offend him."
"What does the injustice mean when Fellow Daoist Yuan said? By the way, I vaguely heard Master Ma talk about the mission before. Could it be that the two have anything to do with each other?"
Du Fan kept listening carefully, and at the end, he couldn't help but feel moved and asked.
"This is what I want to tell fellow Daoist Du next. It is naturally impossible for low-level monks like us to be in places like Crescent Island, just like in Jiuzhou Great 6, to only practice every month, and to obtain the cultivation resources of the sect family.
In Crescent Island, we have not only enjoyed no treatment for sects and families in the past, but also have to do various tasks based on each group. Even so, we will eventually get very few cultivation resources.
Most importantly, we have almost no time to practice.
Fellow Daoist Du may not be able to understand it yet, but at most months, you will clearly feel the cruelty here. When we return from completing the task, there will be even a phenomenon that we may not be rewarded if we make contributions, but we will definitely be punished if we have ever been punished."
Yuan Li sighed and said with a serious expression.
"Fellow Daoist Yuan, what kind of tasks do we usually do?" Du Fan frowned and asked again.
"The most common task of cultivating the cultivator in the valley is to kill monsters at sea and obtain demon pills.
Of course, this is for people like you and me who are in the cultivation level. If they are cultivators at the second and third levels of Qi Refining Stage, they will be sent to the mine veins in the northern part of Crescent Island to be miners."
Yuan Li glanced at Du Fan and said so.
"Catching monsters? The risk is probably quite small." Du Fan could no longer remain calm when he heard this, his expression shrank slightly, and his face turned very ugly.
"This is naturally. The mortality rate of every trip to sea is about 50%. Even if you return safely and fail to pay a sufficient amount of demon pills, you will still be punished.
Fellow Daoist Du probably doesn’t know something. The most terrifying thing in this sea area east of the East Ring Sea is not the monsters, because there are almost no monsters that are too powerful near the Earthly Demon Islands.”
When Yuan Li said this, his face suddenly turned pale, as if he was talking about the tiger.
"Oh? Can Fellow Daoist Yuan tell me in detail?" Seeing this, Du Fan felt a stern in his heart and quickly spoke.
"The west side of the eastern edge of the sea is Jiuzhou Da 6, and the east side is the fog of the East China Sea.
The area covered by the East China Sea fog is very wide, and it divides the east side of the East China Sea. No one knows how big it is, nor does anyone know how it exists. It just knows that there is no thing that can come out again after entering the East China Sea fog.
Whether it is the powerful Nascent Soul power, the high-level monsters on the sea, or even dead objects such as earth, wooden boards, as long as they are in contact with the fog of the East China Sea, they will disappear instantly and there will be no trace of them.
Unfortunately, the Earthsha Islands are located on the east side of the East Sea, and Crescent Island is one of the seventy-two Earthsha Islands, one of the few islands closest to the fog of the East Sea. Therefore, once we go out to sea, the Eastsha Islands will be our biggest threat."
Yuan Li looked solemn as never before, took a deep breath and spoke slowly.
"There is such a thing! Even the powerful Nascent Soul can't fight against it at all?" Du Fan took a breath, his expression could not hide his shock. After a moment, his eyes flashed and he spoke again: "Since you can't provoke it, then avoid it, why is Fellow Daoist Yuan so afraid?"
"Fellow Daoist Du doesn't know that the East China Sea fog can be divided into some of them by themselves, and we call these divided into them Miyun.
The mysterious cloud moves within a certain range, and its trajectory is erratic and difficult to grasp. Moreover, its running degree is sometimes fast and sometimes slow, which can often catch people off guard.
These mysterious clouds are hundreds of acres and about a meter small, but no matter how big or small, as long as you and I are contaminated by them, they will disappear instantly as if they encounter the fog of the East China Sea." Yuan Li seemed to think of some past, his body trembled, and his face pale in an instant.
Du Fan's face was not much stronger than Yuan Li. After the corner of his mouth twitched, he fell silent.
"Fellow Daoist Yuan, after hearing what you said, we cultivators not only do not have time to practice, but also have to do various tasks for the island for free. Then aren't we like slaves on Crescent Island?" After a while, Du Fan said with a gloomy expression.
"Although this is not very nice, in fact, that's what it means." Yuan Li was stunned at first, then smiled bitterly.
"Then will we never have a day to turn over?" Du Fan sighed, and said casually as if he was talking to himself.
"This is not absolute. If your cultivation reaches the seventh level of Qi Refining Stage, you can become a small leader here and manage your disciples to work.
At that time, you will be more relaxed and will have more time to practice. Occasionally, you will also get the elixirs given on the island.
Although these little leaders in the seventh level of Qi Refining Stage have a better life, as you said, we are ordinary slaves, and they are just higher-level slaves.
Therefore, for those leaders, the next goal is to build the foundation. As long as you can break through to the foundation building stage by luck, you can become the master of the Crescent Island Hall and manage hundreds of disciples of the Qi Refining Stage, just like the master of the Horse Hall. Until then, you can be considered truly restless."
Yuan Li smiled and spoke, but there was obviously a deep meaning in this smile.
"For all the foundation building masters on Crescent Island, I'm afraid I don't want to have another new master under his command." Du Fan held his chin and said thoughtfully.
"Fellow Daoist Du is indeed a clear understanding!" Yuan Li was stunned, somewhat surprised, and then showed a hint of praise on his face.
...
At dusk, Du Fan returned to his wooden house again.
Due to Yuan Li's reminder, when he came back, Du Fan deliberately paid attention to the people mentioned by the other party.
As a result, Du Fan's heart suddenly sank. Although these people seemed to say hello in a friendly manner after seeing him, the greed and cruelty deep in their eyes were still captured by Du Fan in an instant.
After Du Fan returned to the house, he immediately took out the induction-type prohibition magic tool and quickly injected a trace of magic power. Soon, a layer of prohibition light curtain scattered and opened, covering the entire wooden house.
It was not until this time that he breathed a little relieved, sat cross-legged on the bed, and savored the information he had received from Yuan Li today.
"Yuan Li's words are only 70% credible. If this is what people say and are divided into a group with him, then his words today will be more credible." Du Fan's eyes flashed, thinking like this.
"As for the more than ten people he mentioned, it is probably not wrong, because even if something happens to me, it will not be good for him. Moreover, those people are by no means good according to my observation."
"In places like Crescent Island, it is very similar to Dongshishan at the time. If you can, you will not act. But if they take the initiative to provoke me, even if they take some risks, they will kill the other party. You must not leave any living."
Du Fan took a deep breath, his eyes were filled with cold light.
"In a short period of time, I can't count on Deputy Leader Xiao anymore, I can only rely on myself.
First, I want to gain a foothold here and have the power to protect myself, and then try to find Ruoxi. As for the return to Jiuzhou 6, it seems that... there is no possibility at all, and now I can only take one step at a time."
Du Fan smiled bitterly, shook his head and sighed.
...
Early the next morning, Du Fan was entering a meditation, and a cold snorted suddenly appeared in his mind. He was shocked and quickly pulled the prohibition tool up and appeared at the door of the room. He pushed the wooden door open and walked out quickly.
"My younger brother Du Fan pays homage to the Lord of Horse." Du Fan bent down deeply to the visitor and bowed to him with great respect. He was extremely respectful in his words and expressions.
