Infinite Predator of the Heavens

Chapter 104 Simple Difficulty

"Please rest assured, the host."

The voice of the system continued to explain: "As long as the host does not leapfrog the challenge, and chooses the appropriate difficulty to challenge according to his own cultivation strength, there will be no major problems.

Of course, the greater the difficulty, the richer the rewards will be. "

"It sounds pretty good."

Lin Bai thought for a while, put down the milk tea in his hand, put his hand on his chin, stroked it a few times, finally nodded and said: "Okay, give me a solo challenge of easy difficulty first!"

"Please host to confirm the challenge."

The system said: "During the challenge, there is still a chance that danger will occur. If the challenge is successful, you will get a random rich reward. If the challenge fails, the items owned by the host will be collected by the challenge organization of the heavens as a reward for the successful challenger."

"In other words, the rewards for successful challenges are actually the items of those who failed the challenge?"

Lin Bai asked immediately after hearing the words.

"Not at all."

The system replied: "The items of the losers of the challenge are only one of the sources of the challenge prizes from the heavens."

"interesting."

Lin Bai nodded, and finally confirmed: "I confirm to participate in the challenge of the heavens! Let's start!"

After the words fell, a white ball of light suddenly appeared.

The ball of light is no more than the size of a fist, and its whole body is milky white, exuding a faint white light, floating quietly in front of Lin Bai.

"what is this?"

Lin Bai asked curiously.

"The heavens challenge the auxiliary light sphere of easy difficulty. The host can be sent to the challenge map plane by the light sphere just by touching it with his hand."

The system explained: "At the same time, this sphere of light will follow the host throughout the process and record the process of the host's challenge. If the host is found to have violated the rules, the host will be deprived of the challenge qualification and will be punished."

"Record the whole process of my challenge? Then don't I have no privacy? Also, what does violation mean? What rules are there in this challenge from the heavens?"

Lin Bai frowned when he heard this.

Although he is now in the alchemy state, he has already entered the state of fasting and not eating, so he will not produce filth and need to shit.

But he also doesn't like being watched by others watching his every move.

Even if this kind of mistake is to prevent oneself from breaking the rules or something.

"It's not like there's no privacy."

The system explained: "After the challenge is completed, the images recorded by the auxiliary light sphere will be edited and modified by the challenger. At that time, if the host does not want to show his face, he can cover his face, and even the whole person can be changed to become another person. appearance.

As for the rules, to put it bluntly, the challenge of the heavens is an interest platform established by some big bosses. At the beginning, the big bosses formulated some simple rules. The most important rule is that they are not allowed to challenge the characters in the plane world of the map. Speaking of the existence of the challenges of the heavens, they are not allowed to reveal that they are doing challenge tasks. "

"Aside from this rule, is there anything else?"

Lin Bai is a little strange, why is there only one rule.

"Just this one rule cannot be violated, as long as you violate it, you will be sanctioned."

The system said: "As for the rest of the rules, they are not important. As long as you are strong enough, you can violate them at will. Those bosses don't care about other rules being violated."

"Forget it, for the sake of the platforms and rewards provided by the bosses, I will reluctantly abide by their rules."

Lin Bai thought for a while, and it seems that this rule is not impossible to abide by.

It's just that I don't want to tell others my identity and purpose.

Just treat the characters in the world where the challenge map is located as NPCs.

Lin Bai checked his phone for the last time, and found no new news, so he raised his hand and touched the white light ball.

The tentacles of the light ball are warm and moist, and it feels like warm jade, which feels excellent.

After Lin Bai's palm touched the ball of light, a white light burst out in the next second, almost blinding Lin Bai.

Fortunately, he closed his eyes in time, and his consciousness could not penetrate this white light, so that his heart tightened, and he felt very unsafe.

In the past, even with his eyes closed, his spiritual sense could detect the surrounding environment, but now he can't see with his eyes, and his spiritual sense cannot detect it, as if he was blind for a moment.

This feeling of uncertainty about the surrounding environment made Lin Bai feel very unsafe.

If he hadn't believed that the system would not harm him, he would have thought there was some kind of conspiracy.

Fortunately, the white light didn't last long. According to Lin Bai's feeling, after three or four seconds, the white light suddenly dissipated, and Lin Bai's consciousness could detect the surrounding environment again.

This is obviously a quaint inn.

The inn room where Lin Bai lived was not big, except for a single bed, there were only two chairs, not even a table.

At this moment, the sky was already bright, and the gentle sunlight came in through the window, and no floating dust could be seen in the beam of light, making the room very clean.

In front of Lin Bai's eyes, the auxiliary light ball was still floating quietly.

Lin Bai stretched out his hand to touch it again, and found that the ball of light did not emit light this time, but some information about the challenge of the world emerged.

After a brief understanding, Lin Bai immediately understood what the specific task of his simple difficulty challenge was.

This is indeed an ancient inn, and the whole world is a replica of ancient China.

The specific age is not very certain, but it should be in the Ming Dynasty or before.

Because Lin Bai detected with his spiritual sense, all the people in the inn had their long hair coiled up, some were wearing a square scarf, and some were wearing a melon cap.

There are also people in the rivers and lakes with weapons in their hands, they are much more chic, their hair is only tied with cloth strips or silk threads, and hangs behind their shoulders, if it is not for their big arms and round waists, they have a fierce atmosphere.

Just by looking at the hair from behind, Lin Bai would definitely be able to misidentify the other party's gender.

Lin Bai's challenge task is very simple, it is to earn 1 taels of gold in this world.

If successful, you can get a wooden treasure chest.

Open the treasure chest to get random rewards.

"1 taels of gold?"

Lin Bai frowned when he heard this.

Because it is said in the auxiliary light sphere that cheating is not allowed during the mission, for example, directly use the divine sense to explore a certain gold mine, and then dig out 1 taels of gold.

Or fly directly to the palace, there must be enough gold there.

This is a violation of the rules. Although doing so will not bring punishment, the bosses of the challenges of the heavens will not care about such things, but the auxiliary light ball said that if you cheat to complete the challenge task, although there is no sanction, it will not There are no rewards.

Lin Bai came here to get rewards, not to violate the rules, so he can only rely on himself to get the 1 taels of gold.

"What should I do?"

Lin Bai sat on the bed in the inn and began to think.

According to the rules displayed by the auxiliary light sphere, the 1 taels of gold can only be obtained through the right way.

All crooked ways are illegal and cheating.

And the right way, that is to say, Lin Bai needs to sell his strength or wisdom, in short, he needs to pay, and then get gold.

Because this is a challenge task of simple difficulty, there is no time limit. That is to say, if Lin Bai wants to, he can even do nothing, just simply get some current objects, and then wait for the time to pass.

After a few hundred years, the objects he obtained will all become valuable antiques.

When the time comes to sell the antiques and go to the gold shop to buy some gold, wouldn't the task be completed?
Lin Bai was almost amused by his own thoughts.

Also hundreds of years later.

After Lin Bai entered the alchemy realm, his life span really increased by 500 years.

But unless he is short-sighted, it is impossible for him to spend hundreds of years for a bad mission.

He is still waiting for time to practice, and before his life essence is exhausted, he will strive to cultivate his own Taoist Nascent Soul and achieve immortality.

"When you walk the right path in ancient times, when will you earn 1 taels of gold!"

After thinking about it, Lin Bai realized that as a modern ordinary person, he really had no experience with the business of the ancients.

I only know that there is a proverb that calls the feet and teeth of the car and boat shop, and they should be killed even if they are innocent.

Cars are carts, boats are for water transport, shops are all kinds of stores, and teeth are people.

In these industries, unless they are leaders, it should be difficult to survive. It is not so easy to make money every day.

"From the perspective of the underlying industry, it should not be possible. Most people are just getting by. It is difficult to save money, let alone 1 taels of gold."

Lin Bai temporarily ruled out some low-level industries, as for high-end industries, such as gold mines, salt and iron sales.

"By the way, I used to read historical novels, and it seems that salt and iron are monopolized by the government. Only a few individuals who have a close relationship with the government will get the salt from the government, and sell salt from the salt farm in the government's hands. "

"Salt is a lucrative business, why not just sell salt?"

Lin Bai couldn't think of any good ideas, so he could only think of something that seemed feasible and try it out.

It doesn't work, I'll change it when the time comes.

Lin Bai set a time limit for this task, that is, it should not exceed half a year.

It's okay to finish it within half a year, but if it takes more than half a year, Lin Bai thinks it's better to give up as soon as possible.

Anyway, the information in the auxiliary light sphere shows that the challenger can terminate the challenge at any time, but if the number of terminations is too many, he will be rejected by the challenge of the heavens, and there will be no chance to challenge in the future.

As soon as he thought about it, Lin Bai got up, first changed into an ancient blue robe, then left the inn room, came to the lobby on the first floor, found a piece of broken silver from the storage bracelet, threw it to the counter, and paid for the inn. money.

Then, instead of leaving directly, he asked the innkeeper about the current government situation in this world.

It took a long time for the shopkeeper to welcome and send him off, and he obviously developed a pair of eyes. He took a look and knew that Lin Bai was not an ordinary person.

So he was very knowledgeable and told Lin Bai a lot of common sense issues.

The current dynasty is called the Dadong Dynasty, and the emperor's surname is Chen. It has been established for more than 200 years and has gone through more than ten emperors.

The Dadong Dynasty had a vast territory, and its capital was set in Dadongcheng in the north.

The place where Lin Bai is currently located is Pingcheng in the south of the dynasty.

Pingcheng is not close to Dadongcheng, and it takes half a month to get there by carriage.

Of course, you don't have to go to the capital if you want to get the government's Yanyin. There are special envoys and eunuchs in charge of salt and iron in the local area. , and is the emperor's confidant, and has the right to go directly to Datianting, so he has great power in the local area.

These eunuchs can issue salt quotations to people.

Lin Bai bid farewell to the innkeeper, left the inn, and walked out of the city on foot.

The auxiliary light ball floated behind Lin Bai.

Lin Bai has already determined that no one else can see this ball of light, only him as the challenger can see it.

And according to the auxiliary light ball, this world is just an ordinary ancient world, there are no mysterious monsters and ghosts, and there are no people who cultivate immortals.

So Lin Bai didn't want to shock the world too much, otherwise he could fly directly in the city with his sword.

But it is estimated that if he did that, he would be worshiped as a fairy immediately.

"Hey, if I pretend to be a fairy and come here to fool the mortals in this world and ask them to pay me, wouldn't I be able to gather 1 taels of gold soon?"

Lin Bai was walking, and suddenly stopped.

If this plan is feasible, then there is no need to engage in salt and sell salt.

After all, he has never sold salt before. Although he is confident that he can get salt for himself when he meets the eunuch, but how to sell it, who to sell it to, and how much he needs to sell it to make up 1 taels of gold, Lin Bai does not know how to sell salt. clear.

But pretending to be a fairy, you only need to find a few wealthy households. It seems that within a few days, those people will be able to collect 1 taels of gold, right?
The question is, is it a crooked way to pretend to be a fairy?

Lin Bai asked the auxiliary light sphere, and the result he got was: it depends on the situation.

If it is to blindly make mortals think that Lin Bai is a god, let mortals sell pots and irons, sell children and daughters to collect money for Lin Bai to make a confession, then it is obvious that Lin Bai got the money in a crooked way.

And if Lin Bai can make mortals who believe that he is a god be kind to others, don't want the money of the poor, but only the money of the rich, and it is not an endless demand, but only a part of the wealth of the rich.

And it really has certain benefits for the poor and the rich, such as eliminating disasters and solving difficulties, or using magic to reduce rain to relieve drought, or open ditches to guide water conservancy.

Under such circumstances, the money Lin Bai got was tainted with the sincerity of the believers, and such money is in line with the righteous way.

Because what Lin Bai did was in line with the position of a god, rather than just defrauding money.

After receiving the explanation from the auxiliary light sphere, Lin Bai immediately stopped looking for Laoshizi's special eunuch and eunuch to make salty introductions. He immediately decided to pretend to be a god, do something for the believers, and then collect part of the money from the rich believers , get together 1 taels of gold as soon as possible!

But Lin Bai still had to go out of the city, and he had to go.

Because Pingcheng is just a small city in the south of the Great Eastern Dynasty. If there are many rich households, obviously, it has to be the capital of the Great Eastern Dynasty, and the Great Eastern City has the most.

In order to be a hit in Dadongcheng, Lin Bai couldn't show his whereabouts here.

He quickly walked out of Pingcheng, came to the wilderness, searched the vicinity with his spiritual sense, found no one was paying attention, then called Luo Yingjian, stepped on the flying sword, and galloped towards the north of the Great Eastern Dynasty.
