Chapter 1017 Backcountry

Lin Ming has never doubted the things explained by the system.

But the system never told him that the feeling of being teleported was so uncomfortable.

The whole person is like being stuffed into a huge front-loading washing machine.

Rolling over and over, and still having to protect the person in his arms, Lin Ming swore secretly in his heart.

This dog teleports, don't use it next time!

I don't know how long it took, Lin Ming didn't know when he lost consciousness and when he recovered.

When he woke up, he saw the familiar blue sky and white clouds.

Xie Jianjia was lying beside him, still unconscious.

Lin Ming sat down and shook Xie Jianjia, finally Xie Jianjia had a reaction, but Lin Ming discovered something was wrong with her immediately.

"What happened to your eyes?"

Although Xie Jianjia opened his eyes, there was no focus in those eyes, and he looked into the distance blankly.

Lin Ming thought that Xie Jianjia reminded himself that there was no price to pay, but seeing her dull eyes now, he started to panic again.

Xie Jianjia reached out and touched his eyes, as if he didn't care.

"It's nothing, I've used too much ability, and I'm going to be blind for a while, and it will be fine after a while."

Xie Jianjia said it lightly, but the listeners felt very uncomfortable.

Lin Ming felt that it was not the answer to his greed for blood lotus. If he didn't spend a little time, he would take Xie Jianjia away as soon as he saw her, and Xie Jianjia would not become like this.

"What do you think?"

After losing her sight, Xie Jianjia's other senses seemed to be magnified, and she accurately touched Lin Ming's shoulder.

"If this matter has nothing to do with you, I would be grateful enough if you brought me out of that place."

"By the way, I can't see now, can you tell me where we are now?"

Xie Jianjia reminded Lin Ming that after waking up, he still hadn't figured out where he was.

He helped Xie Jianjia stand up, and began to look around.

Helping him raise his hand, when he wanted to look at his watch, he found that his watch had been smashed due to the terrifying space turbulence.

In other words, there is nothing on him that can be linked to others.

Lin Ming fumbled for his tattered clothes, but found nothing, so he could only accept his fate and help Xie Jianjia aside.

"You've lost everything on me, why don't I go around and see if I can find one or two people to ask for directions."

Xie Jianjia knew exactly how Lin Ming led her to escape from that place, and because of this, she didn't say anything.

"Oh, I'm here waiting for you."

Lin Ming looked at the surrounding low bushes and sparse woods.

There will be no carnivorous beasts in this place, and Xie Jianjia will not have any problems staying here.

After settling down, he turned and left.

After walking a certain distance, he spit out a mouthful of blood with a wow.

In order not to expose the fact that he was injured in front of Xie Jianjia, he kept holding back.

Now that he vomited blood this time, he felt much more relaxed all over.

The system is right, time and space are areas controlled by gods, and when he tried to control this power with a mortal body, he had to pay a certain price.

The only good news is that this so-called price is not too serious, within the range he can bear.

Lin Ming wiped off the spit out blood, and wiped it on the dragon scale without any waste.

Lin Ming traveled very fast, and within a few minutes, he saw a small village on the edge of the foggy mountain.

In the col with beautiful mountains and forests, this village with light cooking smoke is like a bright pearl embraced by deep mountains.

Lin Ming quickened his pace and rushed over.

The village was poorer than he had imagined.

There are dozens of households, some of which do not even have water and electricity.

Lin Ming saw those old people still drawing water by the river, so he couldn't help but went over to help.

"Young man, thank you."

The old man with white hair bent his back and looked at Lin Ming with a smile. There were one or two jerky words in his Mandarin, but it was not difficult to understand.

Lin Ming helped him lift the bucket and asked.

"Where does your family live? I'll send it there for you."

"Okay!"

The old man looked at him with a smile, and chatted with him while showing him the way.

"The young man looks strange, he is not from our place."

Lin Ming smiled brightly, like a fool who has no scheming.

"Master, you guessed it right. I'm not from here. I was traveling here with my friends. I didn't expect to get lost in the mountains."

"Look, my clothes are all torn. I found them with great difficulty."

The uncle looked at Lin Ming's clothes, squinted his eyes and nodded.

"Young man is not bad, you can still find us here, go to my house later, I will find you some clothes that the old man wore when he was young."

Lin Ming readily agreed.

On the way back with the old man carrying the bucket, he found that there were many people in the village, but there were very few women, no matter whether they were young girls or middle-aged women.

Occasionally, only a thin old woman can be seen sitting by the courtyard gate.

Lin Ming silently wrote down this matter, and followed the old man to the yard with several vegetable fields at the door.

"Come in, young man. It's a bit messy living in my house alone. Don't dislike me."

The old man was very enthusiastic, and Lin Ming also had a smile on his face. The two seemed to be getting along happily.

After Lin Ming put down the water, he asked the old man about the medium to communicate with the outside world.

"Old man, is there a telephone or mobile phone in your village?"

"I know what you're talking about. It's a very good thing. In our village, only the village head's family has it. If you want to use it, I can take you there."

Lin Ming breathed a sigh of relief quietly. Looking at the appearance of the village, he thought that there was no contact information.

Under the kind invitation of the old man, Lin Ming followed the old man to what he called the village chief's house.

The village head's house is not very gorgeous, at most it has a fenced yard at the door.

Lin Ming, a stranger, followed behind the old man, and just walked in.

"Village Chief, may I borrow your phone from your house."

When Lin Ming passed by the small courtyard with a fence, he suddenly glanced at the sudden extra well in the small courtyard.

His eyes slowly dimmed, like a deep pool.

The village chief from the old man's mouth also appeared soon. He was wearing a bunt, and although he was old, he looked very capable.

"Who is this?"

"This is a young man who came to our place for a trip and lost his way. He wants to borrow a phone!"

Before Lin Ming could speak, the old man had already explained the whole story.

Standing on the side, Lin Ming only needs to nod his head.

"You can borrow the phone if you want."

The village chief agreed without saying a word.

"But the signal here in our village is not very good. Sometimes you can get through the phone, and sometimes you can't get through. You have to be mentally prepared."

Lin Ming nodded, apologized to the two people, and was brought to an old telephone that seemed to be from the last century.
