People in Doupo: The beginning of the game intercepts the rich woman Xun'er

Chapter 82: The Secret of the Remaining Map
Hearing Hai Bodong's serious words, Xiao Ling nodded slightly and replied with a smile: "I feel relieved with Mr. Hai's words, but since Mr. Hai has already obtained the Breaking Evil Pill, then the remaining map of the transaction conditions must be handed over to me."

Hearing Xiao Ling mention the matter about the incomplete map, Hai Bodong couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

Although Hai Bodong didn't know what the exact function of these fragments of the map was, he still knew that the secrets hidden in these fragments were definitely not small. After all, these fragments of the map were enough to attract even a powerful figure like Queen Medusa, and they chased her from afar.

However, since I haven't obtained any useful information from this incomplete map for so many years, it seems that I will never be able to obtain the secrets recorded in it.

Now Xiao Ling is only fifteen years old, but his cultivation has already broken through Dou Wang, and his alchemy skills have reached the sixth level. His future prospects are definitely limitless. By handing over this unknown fragment of the map, he can also make friends with him. In the future, he may be able to rely on his help to further improve his cultivation.

With a wry smile and a sigh, Hai Bodong touched the ring with his fingers, and then a small piece of extremely ancient yellowed parchment appeared in his palm. He stroked the small piece of ancient fragment with great reluctance and sighed, "I have made maps for decades, but I have never seen such a complicated map. Not long after I got it, I wanted to copy it according to this fragment, but the map I drew in the end was very strange and different from the original. After experimenting for several times, I had to give up this idea. I think, maybe this has something to do with the fact that the map is only incomplete."

After touching the fragment for a long time, Hai Bodong shook his head in frustration and handed it to Xiao Ling. He smiled bitterly and said, "Well, take it. From my experience, these fragments should be divided into several parts. It's not very useful to have only one part in your hand. Moreover, it is undoubtedly more difficult to find other fragments in this vast continent than to find a needle in a haystack."

With a smile, Xiao Ling reached out to take the incomplete map which had a very smooth touch, and looked it up and down. A faint sense of vicissitudes and ancient charm came to him. It seemed that the years that this incomplete map had experienced were probably not too short.

Holding this small piece of the incomplete map, Xiao Ling took out another small piece that he had taken from Hai Bodong last time from the ring, and then pieced it together. After discovering that there was no gap at the connection between the two, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"Hehe, Master Xiao Ling, it seems that you are very interested in these incomplete maps?" Looking at Xiao Ling's appearance, Hai Bodong rolled his eyes and asked with a chuckle.

"I have great interest in these strange things." Xiao Ling smiled slightly and answered vaguely.

"Master Xiao Ling, all the incomplete maps in my hand are now in your pocket. Hehe... I wonder if you can tell me what the function of this thing is? What can I get after collecting the incomplete maps?" Rubbing his hands, Hai Bodong still couldn't resist his curiosity and asked with a smile.

Hearing Hai Bodong's question, Xiao Ling touched his chin and thought about it. Hai Bodong paid a huge price to get this incomplete map, but he didn't find the secret recorded on it after decades. Now that he handed this incomplete map to others, he would definitely be very curious about what it is. If he couldn't figure it out, he might even think about it day and night to guess what was recorded on it. Thinking of this, Xiao Ling decided to tell Hai Bodong a little bit to make him dispel these inexplicable thoughts.

He raised the incomplete map and shook it, then said to Hai Bodong: "If I'm not mistaken, this should be a fragment of a strange fire map. I just joined your map shop, and the strange fire in my body has reacted again. And from my perspective, the previous owner of this strange fire should have been quite powerful, at least a Dou Zun. I only have this fragment of the map I got from you, and as for whether I can get the whole map in the future, it depends on luck."

Seeing Hai Bodong's expression slightly changed, Xiao Ling continued to add: "Queen Medusa is competing with you for it, probably because she discovered that there is a breath of strange fire on this incomplete map. As far as I know, the snake people have a secret method that requires the cooperation of strange fire to perform, which can make the caster's blood evolve and greatly improve their cultivation talent. Queen Medusa has stayed at the peak of Douhuang for so long, and the four surrounding empires are eyeing the snake people covetously. Naturally, they want to seize this incomplete map, so as to find the strange fire on it to complete the evolution of their blood, so that they can break through to the realm of Douzong. You are a Douhuang who cultivates ice attributes. Why are you looking for this map related to strange fire? Are you going to refine it? Although this incomplete map of strange fire is indeed very attractive to fire attribute practitioners and alchemists, it is more than enough to exchange for an imperial pill. But this incomplete map is of no use to you. It is really miserable for you to guard this useless incomplete map and have your cultivation sealed for decades."

Although Xiao Ling's words did not fully describe the actual situation, they did not deceive Hai Bodong. This incomplete map does record the news of the strange fire, and the strength of the Pure Lotus Demon Saint exceeded that of the Dou Zun when he was alive, right?

If I tell the truth, Hai Bodong will definitely regret it to death. It is better to let him know part of the truth and let him let go of this obsession.

After listening to Xiao Ling's explanation, Hai Bodong finally understood why he was hunted by Medusa because of this incomplete map. It turned out that she wanted to find the strange fire to evolve her own bloodline and break through the Dou Zong realm.

Hai Bodong sighed deeply, shook his head, and said with some melancholy: "It turns out that this is actually a fragment of the Strange Fire Map. Queen Medusa is hunting me down because she wants to get the fragment, find the Strange Fire, and evolve her bloodline."

Xiao Ling smiled, patted Hai Bodong on the shoulder, and consoled him with a smile: "These things are in the past. You have lived to such an old age, can't you let go of such a small matter? When you take the Po Evil Pill, you will be able to recover your Dou Huang cultivation. By then, you will be the famous "Ice Emperor" in the Jia Ma Empire, which is much more carefree than wasting your life in this small desert city."

Hearing Xiao Ling's comfort, Hai Bodong burst into laughter and said to Xiao Ling with a smile: "Master Xiao Ling, you are right. After taking the Breaking Evil Pill, from now on, I, Hai Bodong, will be free from restraints!"
