Chapter 248
"Because I can let the dead lead the way for me," Lu Lin leaned forward slightly and said with a smile, "A Diao, show your skills and wink for our friend."
Chapter 408: When you think it won’t be such a coincidence, he often will
Although ferrets have been quite reliable in various matters since they were summoned.
But there is still a kind of thing, and it always doesn't matter.
That's when it makes it scary.
Originally, he just wanted to show off a little bit of the necromancy aura from the underworld crystal to give Kemul his eyes, but as soon as the ferret made a move, he was so frightened that he rolled his eyes and fainted on the spot.
Lu Lin didn't know what the ferret showed him. Anyway, after waking him up, he decisively agreed to lead the way for Lu Lin and others.
(8) As for the task of guarding this place, in his words, he has not seen outsiders who can discover the actual location of Oasis City in several months. Meeting Lu Lin and others is unprecedented. He does not believe that such a coincidence can connect them. Two groups of people came.
5 And even if it is such a coincidence.
Sina could only say that the other group of people were probably destined to suffer this fate.
With such irresponsible thoughts, Kemul led Lu Lin deeper into the desert.
6 Then.
⑶The unlucky ones who "are destined to have this calamity" appear.
⒋But their arrival is not a coincidence.
This group of people are actually members of the Dagashi Cult, and were sent to monitor the movements of Lu Lin and others.
②In order to prevent Lu Lin and others from discovering their traces, they followed Bawu÷+periodulu㈥㈢№⒋like NiyueqUN:/※ far away, and used high-altitude surveys to confirm the location and movements of Lu Lin and others.
When Lu Lin and others were stagnant before, they were also stationed far away.
Now that Lu Lin and others are gone, they will naturally come to the place where Lu Lin and others stopped to investigate.
This investigation doesn't matter, they really found something.
There is an illusion here!
After breaking through the illusion, it turned out to be the Oasis City that had been closed for a long time!
You know, this oasis city was once a city controlled by the Great Gash Cult. Later, it was controlled by the Kongwu Cult who came out of nowhere. They also tried every means to fight for control of the city.
However, due to the harsh desert environment, their actions ultimately ended in failure.
In fact, the Dagashi Sect has always been worried about this.
After many years of coming to this oasis city again, this group of people couldn't help but have the idea of going in to investigate.
They were originally disguised and did not carry anything related to the Great Gash Cult. They looked like an ordinary caravan.
Besides, there had never been any rumors of Oasis City attacking a lost caravan before, so I thought it wouldn't be a bad idea to go take a look.
With this thought in mind, the caravan headed towards Oasis City.
Then, to their surprise, they entered the oasis city very smoothly and never came out again.

"Here, the place ahead is where we live," Kemul pointed to the front and said to Lu Lin on the observation deck, "Here, it's over there, do you see the lake village?"
Lu Lin looked in the direction he pointed, and sure enough he saw a small lake and a large number of rock and earth houses beside the lake.
It's just that it's different from ordinary lakes. The color of this lake is eye-catching red, and there are a lot of white crystal layers around it.
8 "Red Salt Lake?" Lu Lin was a little surprised.
He had seen lakes like Wu's in photos in his previous life, but he didn't expect to see the real thing here.
"It's rare that you actually recognize it," Kemul said, folding his hands. "There is a lot of salt in this lake, and it contains strong fire magic. You won't feel wet even if you stay nearby."
⒍"You also know that our tribe is very sensitive to moisture and has very little demand for water. But even so, we still need to replenish water. Apart from food, this is the only thing that can replenish us with water. Red Salt Lake.”
6 "Every red salt lake is regarded as a treasure by us, and our gathering areas are usually built next to these red salt lakes."
⒊"Of course, this lake is precious to us, but to you, the fire poison contained in it is deadly."
(iv) "Don't go to get water from the Red Salt Lake out of curiosity in the future. If something happens to you, I won't be able to find a solution for you."
涶“Don’t worry 匛∮^4〓8℃£Hey≠≠die ⑶三 Zero object swelling〉&turn@“:Well, we are not that stupid,” Lu Lin shook his head.
2 "That's hard to say," Kemul sighed, "After all, you are the ones planning to go to the dungeon..."
"Someone wants to become a zombie lizard man?" Lu Lin gave Kemul a cold look.
"Hey! No, no, no, I... um, I'm sorry," Kemu suddenly became frightened.
Lu Lin was also convinced. This guy was really a dog-faced guy. He would shine brightly if he was given some sunshine, and he would immediately become a coward after being frightened.
I don’t know if it’s just him who is weird, or if everyone in Como is the same way.
Lu Lin could see the village clearly, and people on the other side of the village could naturally see the earth dragon that Lu Lin and others were riding.
To be more precise, before Lu Lin saw the other party, the other party had already noticed them.
The large earth dragon they were riding was quite conspicuous in the desert. Without the obstruction of the sand dunes, they could be easily seen from thousands of meters away when the weather was good.
At this time, Lu Lin could see that many Como people had dragged carts to the front of the village and were waiting for orders. They obviously regarded them as a caravan coming to do business and were waiting for them with goods.
"Speaking of which, what kind of goods do you usually sell here?" Lu Lin suddenly asked.
"Here? Well, let me think..." Kemur said, and began to name a series of items like a dish. Basically, they were rare goods that were quite expensive outside.
Lu Lin listened to the names of these precious materials, and his heart was itchy unconsciously, and he wanted to buy them here.
Unfortunately, although the people here do business, they also charge money, but that is based on the fact that they will sell the excess as currency after buying and exchanging enough food and daily necessities.
In other words, bartering is more popular here than trading money.
Although the local specialties are cheap, the supplies brought by Lu Lin and others are limited after all. If they are sold, they can only let the snow ferrets go to the school to buy the emergency food at a high price. The difference in price actually falls into the hands of the Black Magic School.
㈨♦■4/≮⒏矣=4③30㈤Transit+; group∈:Just·⊙0/四}′釟$《4≡2Therefore, Lu Lin gave up the idea of collecting the goods.
Business is important. Once he successfully breaks through this underground city, opens up the trading network here, or even occupies one of the oasis cities, he can collect the goods here whenever he wants.
So after arriving at the village, Lu Lin gave Kemuer some cream biscuits and asked him to help him go down and say hello to the local residents, give them some biscuits and let them disperse, and then ask him to help introduce the leader here directly.
As for why he didn't find a guide directly, it was because Lu Lin also wanted to take this opportunity to get familiar with the village chief here.
After all, no one knows whether there will be an opportunity to negotiate business with the other party in the future.
And Kemur's actions were also very quick. Cream biscuits are not expensive, but they are a kind of commodity that the Como people like very much. They are delicious, dry, durable, and have sugar and oil.
These Como people who brought goods here can get a few biscuits. At least this trip is not in vain, and they have no complaints.
The crowd soon dispersed, and then Kemur led Lu Lin and others to stop the earth dragon at the edge of the village, and then took them to a high tower on the shore of the Red Salt Lake.
That is where the village chief of this lake village lives.
With Kemur's introduction, Lu Lin soon met the village chief.
But what Lu Lin didn't expect was that the village chief was not a Como person like Kemur, but a red fireball suspended in the air.
Lu Lin recognized this creature.
However, that recognition did not come from knowledge of creatures.
Instead, it came from knowledge about totems.
The elemental life in front of me is called "The Blazing Fire Spirit that Freely Wanders in the Sky".
It represents the fire totem, an ancient elf whose tribe has existed since ancient times.
Chapter 409 They are all from a big department, I'll give you a favor, Brother Diao
Ordinary elemental totems, the most common type of totem, are widely used in various formations corresponding to the elements, and they can be seen even in elementary formations.
However, unlike the totem images required for high-level formations, most low-level formations only need simple totem engravings.
Although elemental totems are common, it does not mean that the totems themselves are also common.
All the elves that can become totems seem to have existed in ancient times. For most people, these totems are just some kind of abstract images.
So when Lu Lin saw the fire totem appear in front of him, he was a little stunned. He even suspected that he had seen it wrong at the first time.
After confirming that he was right, Lu Lin began to worry about whether he could communicate with the other party.
Until he heard a clear but non-human voice, Lu Lin's worries were dissipated.
"Outsider, I heard that you are here for the dungeon? ”
②#≡㈨4阾si∏№⑶武六偲中 Qn:The blazing fire spirit floated in the air, with an ethereal voice and a proud temperament. If you only listen to the voice, the aura will know that it is the head of a village, and those who don't know it will probably think it is the top leader of a large force.
“Is this the aura of the ancient elves...” Lu Lin couldn’t help but think so.
But speaking of ancient elves, doesn’t he have one at home?
Why is that guy so unruly every day, either doing pranks to scare people or looking like a lazy guy.
Thinking of this, Lu Lin unconsciously glanced at the snow ferret on his shoulder.
The latter noticed Lu Lin’s eyes, then grinned and made a hand gesture to Lu Lin.
Lu Lin was stunned for a moment.
What does this mean?
Did this little guy misunderstand something?
Before Lu Lin spoke, he saw the snow ferret floating and said slowly in the same ethereal voice: “How dare you, a young mortal spirit, be so high? "
The voice was not loud, but everyone could hear it clearly.
The momentum was not high, but even Luo Di, who was standing next to him, felt an invisible pressure.
QThe faces of the people from Como who were present suddenly changed. They were not stupid and could tell that this was a disparagement of their village chief.
uThe most shocking thing was the fire spirit, which trembled visibly.
nThen, the fireball shrank by almost one third, and the high aura dropped instantly.
: "Are you really scared?" Lu Lin was shocked.
2 What is this?
9 Some kind of racial suppression or bloodline suppression?
4 But the fire spirit and the soul spirit are not the same kind at all, right?
0 This can also be suppressed across lines?
4 Is it because of the philosopher's stone?
3 Lu Lin remembered that when he summoned the snow ferret before, it said that it had forgotten a lot of things and slept for a long time.
5 It was indeed refined by Lu Lin, but at the same time it seemed to come from ancient times.
6 So, is this why it called the fire spirit "younger"?
4 Just as Lu Lin's thoughts were flying, the Como people had already surrounded them, each holding a weapon, looking at them in doubt.
Lu Lin frowned when he saw the situation.
He didn't want to fall out with the people of Como. These guys were the ones he wanted now, and they might become their partners in the future.
Just when he wanted to shout to the snow ferret to hold back, he heard the voice of the fire spirit first.
"Everyone, step down. Don't be rude to our distinguished guests."
As soon as these words came out, the people of Como were all stunned, and then looked at each other with hesitation on their faces.
"I said step down!" The voice of the fire spirit came again, and it was once again majestic.
Although the people of Como still looked confused, they finally put away their weapons and retreated.
As the people of Como retreated, the snow ferret no longer released its majesty as before, and returned to Lu Lin's shoulder, returning to its previous carefree appearance.
However, Huo Ling still maintained a low profile. After apologizing to Lu Lin and others, he took them into the inner room and settled them in the reception room.
It seems that because he has been dealing with businessmen for many years, although it is the place where Huo Ling lives, the decoration in the reception room is completely in accordance with the specifications suitable for ordinary people in the outside world to rest. There are soft sofas and exquisitely carved stone tables. The only difference from the outside world is that there are no green plants or wooden items in the house.
As for the reason, it is not difficult to guess. Green plants can't survive in such an environment. Wooden furniture is easy to catch fire in the place where Huo Ling lives.
In fact, there are not only wooden products, but also no flammable objects in the whole room. The fabric of the sofa is also fireproof.
But even so, it can be seen that the person who decorated this house has tried his best to improve the style here.
