"Is anyone there?"

Chen Lin knocked on the door twice.

No response.

"Is there anyone?"

He raised his voice.

When there was no response, he grabbed the straw on the door and gently pulled it outward.

Then his eyes flashed.

The door was opened easily.

"Are the two seniors inside? I am the successor of Dan Pavilion, and I came here specially to visit."

Chen Lin called through the crack in the door and used the name Dange.

He didn't lie either.

According to what the little beast said, after he completed the assessment, he had obtained the identity of the Dan Pavilion owner and could operate on Qiren Island.

But still no one responded.

Chen Lin took a breath.

This thatched hut isn't that big at all. If there were people inside, there was no way they wouldn't hear him shouting.

Therefore, he suspected that the two people tending the wheat fields could only come out at night.

That's why he came here during the day.

Once those two people attack him, he can escape more easily under certain restrictions.

No matter what, we had to go in here. Chen Lin no longer hesitated and opened the door completely.

Then he was stunned.

The otherworldly cave in my imagination does not exist, it is just a small space inside.

As big as the thatched cottage itself, you can see the whole thing at a glance.

The most conspicuous thing inside is a row of shelves with many statues placed on them.

These statues come in different shapes and sizes, but the largest one is no more than one foot.

There are indeed statues.

Chen Lin felt a little relieved.

The presence of a statue meant that the alliance's mission was real and not a bureau for him. It was precisely for this reason that he had to come and have a look, otherwise he would leave directly, which would make him feel uneasy.

There is no direct access.

Chen Lin stood at the door and continued to check, looking for the two old men tending the spiritual field.

He could confirm that the two people did not come out again after returning to the thatched house last night.

But there was none inside the house.

He frowned.

If there were two such big people in the house, there was no way he wouldn't be able to miss them. There weren't many things inside, and there was no place to hide.

suddenly.

Chen Lin's eyes fell on the bottom of the shelf.

There is an offering table there.

There are some snow-white steamed buns placed on it, which seem to be tributes. There is a statue on each side of the table, only the size of a fist.

It was the two old men who were carved!

Is it a statue?

Chen Lin was surprised.

But I wasn't too shocked.

After all, I have seen the mystery of the little beast. These two statues should have the same existence form as the little beast, and can transform between living and non-living forms.

Maybe it's more than just these two.

The statue on the shelf may also come to life.

"Could putting the silver bowl on the corresponding statue make that statue come alive?"

Chen Lin had an idea.

The more I think about it, the more possible it becomes.

But there are many statues here, and there are no hints. Which one is the mission goal?

With such doubts in mind, Chen Lin tentatively entered the house.

Not blocked.

This thatched house is different from Dan Pavilion in that there is no invisible barrier.

See the situation.

Chen Lin walked in generously.

First come to the offering table.

After carefully inspecting the two small statues, there was no doubt that they were the two old men tending the spiritual field.

Chen Lin was thoughtful.

If you guessed correctly, these two statues are like servants. Because they are the smallest and are not placed on the shelf, they are obviously different from other statues.

The level is a little lower.

then.

Chen Lin looked at the steamed buns on the altar table again.

It's real steamed buns.

It's white and plump, and it's still very fresh. It probably wasn't long after it was steamed.

It even has an alluring aroma.

No need to guess, it must have been done by the two old servants at night. The wheat fields outside were planted for these statues.

"Is it possible that after these statues come to life, they still need to eat?"

Chen Lin secretly deduced.

If so, I'm afraid this steamed bun is also a treasure, and eating it may increase your cultivation level.

But he didn't dare to move.

The treasure is not that easy to get, so it is more important to complete the task first.

Looking away, Chen Lin looked at the shelf.

At this time, he discovered that all the statues above were like the little beast, floating out of thin air and not really falling on the shelf.

It is enough to show how extraordinary these statues are.

But the statues on the shelf should have no hierarchy.

Although they are placed in different locations, there are no markings, and the size arrangement is also random.

Counted.

There are one hundred and eight in total.

It's a number with special meaning, and you know what it represents.

Didn't think much about it.

Chen Lin began to look at the statues one by one.

He took out the silver bowl and kept shaking it in front of the shelf, hoping that the statue would resonate with it.

"This is?"

The silver bowl did not react, but Chen Lin stopped in front of a statue about one foot tall.

His face was full of surprise and uncertainty.

The appearance of this statue is actually that of himself!

Why is there a statue of him here?

Chen Lin took a step back, ready to leave the thatched house at any time.

But he reacted quickly.

He estimated that this was the reason why he inherited the Dan Pavilion, because the appearance of the statue was what he looked like now, and his current body, after being broken up and reorganized several times, had long since become different from before.
