Chapter 180 Is that it?

A group of stout mercenaries in the woods before the beast domain were discussing which part of the beast domain they would enter next. Suddenly, a figure appeared in their sight without warning. When everyone saw the person clearly, they were stunned. The person was thin, although he was nearly 1.8 meters tall, there was still a trace of tenderness in his face, which betrayed his real age. This slightly tender face had a kind smile on his face, which made the mercenary relieve the nervous mood. After a closer look, there was a woman behind the boy's back, and the scattered silver hair covered her face. However, from the two white and slender, weak and boneless palms that were placed on the boy's shoulder, it was not difficult to see that this girl was probably not as good as she was!

"Brothers, I'm just here to inquire about some things in the beast realm. If you have any trouble, I hope I'll forgive you!"

Gu Lin showed a sincere smile on his face, and he clasped his fists and said kindly.

Gu Lin's friendly attitude immediately made the mercenaries' favor for Gu Lin greatly. From the mercenaries who had appeared silently around everyone, it can be guessed that the young man in front of him was probably a cultivator. The status of the cultivator in the eyes of most people is far higher than that of ordinary people. Therefore, in their mercenary career, they often encountered some cultivators shouting at them and others, supporting them, and using them as servants. This young man did not seem to have a trace of arrogance from those who claim to be cultivators, especially the respect for them and others, which made everyone feel a little moved.

"Little brother, it's okay. The brothers are just discussing the next plan, it doesn't matter. If you tell me what happens, you can tell you what the big brother knows."

A mercenary wearing darker armor came to Gu Lin. There was a deep scar on his face, as if he was injured by the claws of a monster. Looking at Gu Lin, he said with a smile that if others are kind to him, he will naturally give others enough face, and then said,

"My surname is Liu, you can call me Brother Liu."

Gu Lin smiled and stared at the mercenary wearing dark armor. It is not difficult to see from his clothes that this person has a high status in this mercenary group. He thought he should be the leader of the mercenary group. He bowed and said,

"Brother Liu, I want to find out which places in the beast domain are colder and where these colder places are located."

"Oh? A cold place?"

Brother Liu was slightly stunned. Not only him, but also the rest of the mercenaries also reacted. Most people would not ask them such questions even if they didn't spend money, because most people came to the beast domain for some medicinal materials and all of them grew in sunny places. And those cold places were even harder to grow, and humans were even more difficult to go up. No one was interested in asking about such barren land. Originally, he thought Gu Lin just wanted to find out some good places to make a fortune. Unexpectedly, after asking such a strange question, he couldn't help but remind him,

"Little brother, if you come to the Beast Domain to find some treasures. For example, medicinal materials, I can tell you clearly that it is difficult to grow on the cold land. Besides, there are many dangers on it. Maybe your life will be lost if you are not careful. Brother Liu, I would advise you not to go. It just so happened that our brothers will enter the Beast Domain later. If you don't dislike it, you can follow us. With the strength of your little brother, we can give you some guidance. If you are lucky, you will get some great gains."

Gu Lin smiled gratefully and said sincerely,

"Thank you for your reminder. It's just that there are some reasons for your visit to those cold places. To be honest, the woman on my back is the next very important friend. She was injured by her. Now she must need some objects from the cold places to recover as before. Therefore, I have to go there. If I have the chance in the future, I am willing to accompany Brother Liu and others to go to the beast realm for a while."

Gu Lin's words were sincere and natural, without any tenderness and artificiality. Although he rejected Brother Liu's kindness, he did not make the other party feel disgusted at all. Instead, they admire Gu Lin's style of taking risks for his friends. He looked at Gu Lin with a high look.

"For the sake of the friend behind me, Liu and others really admire me for my own safety. Since the little brother has made me determined, I will circle out some cold lands in the beast domain and point them to you."

After saying that, he reached out and took out a parchment drawing from his arms, and spread it out, which was nearly one meter long and wide. Gu Lin was surprised and turned his eyes to the drawing. There were dense mountains and forests on it, and the valleys and valleys were crisscrossed, and they were divided into three circles by a dark paint, forming three ranges. Obviously, this is the topographic map in the beast domain. The three ranges represent the areas where the low-level monsters outside the beast domain are located from the outside to the inside, most of the middle-level monsters are the areas where the orcs are located, and the areas where some powerful high-level monsters are located in the deep.

There are many places on the drawings with bright red paint, and Gu Lin guessed that these forks represent forbidden areas in the beast domain, either natural disasters or land occupied by some monsters. There are also places outlined with dark green, mostly vast plains, and it is thought that it should be a good place where there is plenty of sunshine and most of them are growing in treasures. Of course, there are still many places in the picture with question marks, and most of these question marks are concentrated in the area deep in the beast domain. It seems that these mercenaries have not yet stepped into that area and do not understand it yet, so the question marks represent unknown areas.

The points Gu Lin guessed are all correct. For these mercenaries who have been walking in the beast realm for many years, a simple and clear map is their capital and support for so many years!

Brother Liu's eyes stayed on this drawing for a full ten minutes. During these ten minutes, Gu Linye did not make any noise and dared not disturb him. After all, Ji behind him was still waiting for him to save him!

Ten minutes later, Brother Liu finally moved his eyes away from the wide pamper skin drawing, and then slowly closed his eyes. Gu Lin guessed that Brother Liu was probably connecting the mountains, rivers, and gullies that actually existed in the beast realm and the gullies on the drawing in his mind. He couldn't help but secretly praised in his heart. Gu Lin asked himself that he could not learn such skills, and thought,

"It seems that Brother Liu is not simple either..."

Ling Xuzi heard Gu Lin's heart that this emotion was heard and couldn't help but laugh,

"Little guy, he has a specialty in his profession, and he also has his own strengths."

Gu Lin nodded, agreeing very much. Just then, Brother Liu's eyes, which had been closed tightly, quickly took out a piece of black charcoal from his sleeve, and circled it on the parchment paper.

Soon, six black circles appeared on this parchment.

"Little brother, from the memories I have heard from and investigated from all over the world, there should be only these six places in this beast realm where the cold places you mentioned. Let's take a look first."

Then he pushed the sheepskin map towards Gulin.

Gu Lin looked at the six black circles on the drawing in front of him, and his brows frowned and his face looked a little ugly. The six circles were still relatively scattered in the drawings, and the distribution was extremely uneven. There were two circles outside the beast domain, three circles in the middle of the beast domain, and one was distributed deep in the beast domain... The beast domain was so big that it would take me to search these places one by one.

"This is a bit troublesome... If I look for it one by one, I don't know when I will find the Dragon Beard Grass..."

Gu Lin thought in his heart that he originally thought that this cold place was only one or two in the beast domain, at most three. Unexpectedly, there were only six out of the circle, which made Gu Lin feel distressed.

Brother Liu looked bitter when he saw Gu Lin's face, thinking that Gu Lin was shocked by the location of these cold places. After all, Gu Lin was just a young man in the eyes of Brother Liu and others, and his strength was not much higher. He would definitely feel bitter when he saw these positions in the middle and deep levels of the beast domain.

Suddenly, Brother Liu seemed to have thought of something again and reminded him,

"Brother, there is one of these cold places that is quite special, so don't put your mind on this place."

Gu Lin, who was looking at the map at a loss, suddenly said in confusion, raised his head and looked at Brother Liu, and asked impatiently,

“Where’s the place?”

Seeing Gu Lin's anxious look, Brother Liu immediately knew that the little brother had not given up yet. He sighed and pointed at a black circle in the middle of the beast domain with his fingers, saying,

"It's this place. It is said that many strong people have been to this place, but they all returned seriously injured. Some even went up and never came down again. I heard that there is a ferocious beast living in this place!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Lin was stunned for a moment, and then his frown stretched out again... (To be continued...)
