Chapter 590 Ancient Castle in the Mist
The mist seemed to transform into the saliva of a giant beast, landing on Lin Tian while unabashedly displaying its savage intent.
However, after sensing these things, Lin Tian's expression gradually relaxed, and the wary look on his face disappeared.
"Yellow Eyebrows, you just want to go back to your old ways again, don't you...?"
Lin Tian's menacing threatening voice rang out, which immediately startled the giant beast behind him. As Lin Tian turned around, his figure began to slowly shrink in the mist.
A moment later, a bald man with a malicious look on his face emerged from the white mist, smiling broadly at Lin Tian and saying:
“Amitabha, I was just testing your vigilance.”
"Oh? How about I test your vigilance too?"
“Amitabha Buddha, my Buddha mind is clear and my wisdom is discerning, so I naturally do not need these things.”
Hearing Lin Tian's question, Huang Mei's smile froze for a moment, and he took a step back with one of his small feet, as if afraid that Lin Tian would suddenly attack and give his little head a good whack.
Fortunately, Lord Lin Tian was magnanimous and only glared at him before saying nothing more.
The reason Huang Mei is here is because he made an agreement with Lin Tian not long ago.
The agreement was that Lin Tian would release Huang Mei from the human bag, let him breathe some fresh air, and experience the feeling of freedom.
Of course, this comes at a price: he must lend a helping hand when Lin Tian needs it.
The Human Race Bag can erode a person's will. Some time ago, Huang Mei stayed in the Human Race Bag. Even though he was extremely arrogant, he gradually became much quieter after being tamed for a long time.
At least for now, Huang Mei hasn't done anything major on the surface, and he has many tricks up his sleeve, so there's no guarantee that he won't be of use someday. Therefore, Lin Tian thinks this deal is still worthwhile.
Although Huang Mei often takes advantage of him in certain ways, such as calling himself his master, he has long been used to these kinds of things after being the leader of the monsters for so long.
Getting back to the main point, the most urgent task now is not to teach Little Yellow Eyebrows a lesson, but to find the Scythe Monster.
Thinking of this, Lin Tian closed his eyes and focused his mind again. In the blink of an eye, he activated his double pupils. After activating them, his original field of vision expanded rapidly. Gradually, he actually cleared a path in the thick white fog.
The road was filled with golden particles of light, appearing and disappearing in the thick white fog. Only Lin Tian, who possessed double pupils, could see this special road.
Seeing this, Lin Tian immediately perked up and followed the golden light particles toward the other end of the road.
Seeing that Lin Tian didn't cause him any trouble, Huang Mei's eyes lit up, he patted his belly, and then followed after him.
The two people, one big and one small, continued walking through the white mist. After an unknown amount of time, they seemed to have escaped the white mist maze they had been in, and the thick white mist in front of them gradually dissipated.
"This is......"
Lin Tian focused intently on exploring the path through the white mist. By the time he arrived, his eyes were already somewhat tired. As the white mist gradually dissipated, he deactivated his double pupil mode.
What appeared before him and Huang Mei was a massive ancient castle. Unlike the buildings in the outer Central District, this castle had not been eroded by time; on the contrary, it was remarkably well preserved.
The castle is solemn and luxurious, with a decorative style somewhat similar to classical European style. The overall look is very elegant and magnificent, which fully reflects the status and wealth of the castle owner.
If Lin Tian wasn't mistaken, this ancient castle should belong to the former owners of the manor, the Dockman family.
However, what Lin Tian couldn't understand was why he was so well preserved, why he was shrouded in layers of white mist, and whether the scythe monster in the white mist had come out of this castle.
It seems that all of this can only be understood after entering the castle.
Without hesitation, Lin Tian stepped forward toward the castle gate, but after only a couple of steps, he seemed to have bumped into an invisible wall and was forced to stop.
This is... a restriction?
Lin Tian wasn't surprised by the concept of enchantments. Some nobles would hire high-level mages to set up an enchantment outside their residences for their own safety, which would both ensure their safety and demonstrate their uniqueness.
Generally, such restrictions require special magic spells or keys to open. Alternatively, if you possess the land deed for the estate, it is usually possible to open it as well.
Lin Tian had done his homework before coming, so after discovering the restriction, he immediately took out the manor's land deed, intending to open it.
However, after he took out the foundation and waited for a while, neither the land deed nor the restrictions showed any reaction.
Is the usage incorrect?
Lin Tian was puzzled and wanted to figure out where he had gone wrong. After fiddling around for a long time, he finally came to a conclusion.
That means this restriction was likely not set up by the Doctorman family, but by someone who came later and set it up around the castle. The white mist was also likely created by him, in order to seize the castle.
But... is it necessary?
Is there some immovable treasure inside, or some earth-shattering secret? Is it worth all this trouble?
Lin Tian felt that this place was even more mysterious, so he became more and more curious and wanted to go in and find out.
Seeing that the land deed couldn't be opened, Lin Tian pondered for a while before taking out a stick, intending to try to break it open by brute force.
However, his reckless act caused Huang Mei, who was standing at a distance, to burst into laughter.
"Huh? You're going to knock him open!?"
"Pfft~ Hahahaha!!!! Stupid! So stupid! No wonder he's been hanging out with that monkey all this time. Whenever he encounters something he can't handle, he tries to rush in recklessly, not realizing that in other people's eyes, this action is simply making him look like a clown!"
"Hahahaha!!! Not only could he not break the barrier, but he actually tried to force it open! Hahahaha! I'm dying of laughter! I'm dying of laughter!"
Seeing Lin Tian use such low-level methods, Huang Mei, who considered himself superior, immediately laughed. He really wanted to laugh, and almost laughed himself to death.
However, engrossed in his laughter, he failed to notice that the target of his mockery was getting closer and closer to him.
"Hahahahaha!!!"
"Hahaha!!"
"Haha...ha...you...what are you doing?"
Seeing Ling Tian approaching, Huang Mei's smile suddenly froze. He wrapped his thin robe tighter around himself and said stiffly:
"You...you...don't be impulsive, your teacher just now...ah!!!!!!!!!"
