Chapter 243 Spiritual Eyes
Chen Yingjie and Xiao Xiaoxiao have successfully drawn Qi into their bodies and have reached the first level of Qi Refining. Bai Yaoyao simply doesn't let them go out to do the tasks in the training hall anymore.
Anyway, the points gained from catching all the fish and coral elves are not much, so it is better to let them stay in the inn and practice well.
Next, Bai Yaoyao continued to score points by herself.
On the evening of the eighth day, the innkeeper Canglan suddenly called out to Bai Yaoyao again.
After hearing his purpose, Bai Yaoyao looked very strange.
"Boss, what you mean is that you accidentally left a treasure outside when you were traveling, and now you suddenly remembered it and want me to help you get it back?"
She looked the old man up and down.
The mermaids have the slender body that is characteristic of them. Although his hair has turned completely white, it still flows like seaweed. His wrinkled face makes him look very amiable. If it weren't for the fish tail constantly swinging behind him, this shopkeeper Canglan would be no different from those ordinary old men on Blue Star.
However, it was this ordinary, harmless-looking old shopkeeper who asked her to help deliver a package, which turned out to be a secret manual of cultivation when she opened it.
Now what treasure are you asking her to find...
Looking at the shopkeeper now, Bai Yaoyao had the feeling that she had met a peerless master who was hiding in the city in the game.
Canglan stroked his hair and beard, "Yes, I think Immortal Bai is a very helpful person, so I won't bother him anymore."
Canglan looked at Bai Yaoyao with a smile, "The auction will be held in two days. Fairy Bai has been going out early and coming back late to accept tasks in the training hall. I guess he is also preparing for the auction of the Pure Heart Pearl! If Fairy Bai can help me get the treasure back, I will give you points. How about that?"
"integral?!"
Bai Yaoyao widened her eyes, somewhat unable to believe her ears!
Isn't this shopkeeper too generous? !
Although the place where he stored the treasure was a little dangerous, the points were too exaggerated!
If other immortals knew that the shopkeeper was willing to pay points to have someone help him get something, let alone the Shadowy Mist Reef, even if it was a more sinister place, I'm afraid there would be people flocking there!
As if he had seen through Bai Yaoyao's thoughts, Canglan took out a piece of mung bean cake from behind the counter, opened the outer packaging and stuffed it into his mouth. After shaking his head and savoring it, he laughed and said:
"Don't worry, Immortal Bai. I've noticed that you've been coming back later and later these days, and you're always exhausted. You look really tired. I've been running this Inn for many years and have some savings. I just wanted to help you out because of the delicious cakes you gave me."
Canglan paused for a moment before continuing, "But in this Crystal Palace, all gains require sacrifices first. This is the rule, so I can't give you points at will. I can only ask you to help me complete this task!"
"Oh, right! I remember seeing a kind of Mist Hidden Mushroom when I passed by there. Although it is somewhat toxic, it is very delicious when made into cakes. If it is convenient for you, Fairy Bai, why don't you bring some back for me?"
Looking at the smiling mermaid shopkeeper, what could Bai Yaoyao say? Of course she could only accept it!
She felt choked for a moment as she watched the shopkeeper showing off his green bean cakes bite by bite. She swallowed her saliva involuntarily and then bowed to Canglan, "Thanks for your trust, shopkeeper. I will help you find your lost treasure tomorrow."
"Yes!" Canglan nodded with satisfaction, tremblingly took out a crumpled paper from his lapel and handed it to Bai Yaoyao, reminding, "By the way, the place where I stored the treasure back then designed a mechanism that requires the joint efforts of five people to open. This is the method to open it, Immortal Bai, keep it well."
Bai Yaoyao took the piece of paper that looked like pickled mustard greens and frowned, "Do you need five people?"
"That's right! Five people must work together, otherwise the mechanism cannot be opened!" After Canglan finished speaking, he patted his head as if he had suddenly realized something, "Oh, I am really confused and almost forgot the most important thing. The thick fog of the Shadow Mist Reef has not dissipated for years, and it is full of illusions. If the White Immortal wants to go there, it is best to find a mermaid with spiritual eyes to go with him, so that it will be safer."
"Spiritual eyes? What is this?" It was the first time that Bai Yaoyao heard this word.
"The so-called spiritual eyes are a racial talent of the mermaids. People born with spiritual eyes can see in the dark, can easily see through the fog, and treat illusions as nothing. They are born to find their way. White Fairy, you can go to the mermaid village northeast of the Crystal Palace to look for it. Although this spiritual eye is rare, there are still a few people in my mermaid generation."
"it is good!"
After Bai Yaoyao agreed, she returned to the rest area in a daze.
At the stone table in the bamboo forest, Chen Yingjie and Xiao Xiaoxiao were still practicing in meditation. Although Bai Yaoyao could not see the spiritual energy around them, she knew from seeing their clothes fluttering that they were working hard to absorb the spiritual energy.
Bai Yaoyao lowered her head and tiptoed around them to go back to her room first, then she saw that the two of them opened their eyes almost at the same time.
"Miss Bai, you're back? Did you encounter any danger? What did you get today?"
Bai Yaoyao curled her lips, "Fortunately, it went smoothly. I avoided the crowds on purpose and walked among the sea beasts. I was lucky today and now I have points. Oh, by the way!"
Bai Yaoyao said as she placed the piece of paper that she had been holding in her hand on the stone table between them.
"When I just came back, the innkeeper came to me again and asked me to do him another favor..."
Bai Yaoyao repeated the conversation she had just had with Shopkeeper Canglan to the two of them.
Chen Yingjie pinched his chin and thought, "This shopkeeper is not simple!"
"Yes! I think so too!" Bai Yaoyao agreed with Chen Yingjie's opinion. "I always feel that he is like the expert on TV. Every move he makes has a deep meaning! So I agreed first."
Xiao Xiaoxiao beside him looked like he was reminiscing. "I remember the Phantom Mist Reef. I saw an eighth-level mission before. It was to catch ten dream jellyfish there, and then you can get 1200 points. There was also a mission to kill the Phantom Octopus, which was a ninth-level mission! And it was said that there was a mixture of thick fog and miasma there, and it was also the lair of the Phantom Octopus. Under the overlapping illusions, even the immortals could not avoid it!"
Xiao Xiaoxiao said worriedly, "Yaoyao, the buff on you can only prevent those sea beasts from attacking you, but you can't avoid thick fog, miasma, and environment like this! This is too dangerous!"
Chen Yingjie next to him took over the conversation, "Xiaoxiao is right to be worried, but the shopkeeper seems to have given a solution. He said that the spirit eye can really see through the foggy environment. After we go to the mermaid village to inquire about it tomorrow, we will naturally be able to tell the truth from the false."
