741 Taking Advantage of the Opportunity
When Shi Zhongkui saw Yuanshi Tianzun, he naturally bowed to him and said a lot of auspicious words, which made Yuanshi Tianzun couldn't help but laugh and said to Zhen Yuanzi, "Don't be surprised, fellow Taoist, my disciple has always been naughty. Every time
The last time I came to Yuxu to see me, this hozen always wanted to get some benefits from me, the old Taoist."
Naturally, Zhen Yuanzi could tell that Yuanshi Tianzun was laughing and scolding, but actually he liked Shi Zhongkui very much.
Otherwise, who would dare to act recklessly in front of a saint?
He shook his head hurriedly, and after being polite, he said a few words of praise to Shi Zhongkui, then opened the red silk cloth on the jade plate in his hand, revealing the four ginseng fruits on the jade plate, and sent it to Yuanshi Tianzun.
"The saint is polite, but the poor Taoist can only use this grass-returning elixir. Please don't despise the saint."
Yuanshi Tianzun probably wanted to show that Chanjiao was interested in Zhen Yuanzi, so he personally walked down the lotus platform and took the jade plate, "Fellow Taoist, this Herbal Pill is a holy product of the three realms, and it only blooms and bears fruit once every nine thousand years.
.
My Taoist friend was willing to give me four pills, which shows his sincerity."
Probably because ginseng fruit looks too much like a baby, most immortals who have the qualifications and ability to taste ginseng fruit will call it "Cao Huan Dan" in formal occasions.
After Yuanshi Tianzun finished speaking, he handed the jade plate to Shi Zhongkui with a smile, took Zhen Yuanzi's hand, and walked to the back garden of Yuxu Palace.
It can be seen that Yuanshi Tianzun's attitude towards ginseng fruit is far less important than what he said.
However, this is normal. No matter how precious the ginseng fruit is, it is just a fairy fruit that increases lifespan.
For mortals and immortals below the Da Luo Jin Immortal, it is indeed a good treasure that is hard to find, but for the immortals with a high status, it is nothing more than a spiritual creature to quench their thirst.
Yuanshi Tianzun personally took Zhen Yuanzi's wrist and invited him to the table. It can be said that he gave him enough face.
Zhen Yuanzi understood that Yuanshi Tianzun was implying that he had no objection to moving closer to Chanjiao. The only question now was what kind of reward he would get in return for joining Chanjiao.
Otherwise, as a veteran quasi-sage and asking for nothing, why should I stand on the side of Chanjiao?
The two of them acted like they had not seen each other for a long time, chatting and laughing while walking, so that Shi Zhongkui could only follow them behind him holding the jade plate.
Although there was no resentment in his heart, after all, the Patriarch had nothing to do with him. When they met back then, Shi Zhongkui was still willing to do something for his Patriarch when he gave him the Green Lotus.
But looking at Yuanshi Tianzun and Zhen Yuanzi praising each other, I couldn't help but feel that they were really hypocritical.
But it didn't take long, and the more I listened, the more I realized that although the two of them didn't say it explicitly, the implication behind their words was that they had actually reached an agreement on how to provide protection for Wuzhuang Temple.
Moreover, just as Shi Zhongkui expected, Yuanshi Tianzun did not agree to the sworn sworn vows right away.
Instead, he repeatedly hinted that there was no need to do this, as Chanjiao would guarantee Zhen Yuanzi's ownership of the ginseng fruit tree.
Shi Zhongkui couldn't help but feel happy. Although Zhen Yuanzi was indeed powerful and had an incredible treasure like the innate spiritual treasure "Book of the Earth" in his hand, Shi Zhongkui still felt a little awkward when he suddenly said that he wanted to become a sworn sworn brother.
After all, let alone a close friendship, the two of them had only met twice at most, and they were still scheming against each other.
Becoming a brother of the opposite sex with such a person who has no affection at all is just like a marriage. It is all about the exchange of interests and no real feelings at all.
Besides, Shi Zhongkui no longer needs to find external help at this time to help him gain a foothold in Chanjiao.
Even when he revealed to Taishang Laojun that there was a fairy peach in the space farm that could increase lifespan, he no longer had to worry about his status in the Human Sect and the Interpretation Sect.
And just as Shi Zhongkui worried before, he and Sun Wukong are still very different.
Sun Houhou doesn't have to worry about the issue of seniority, but he really can't be called brothers with Zhen Yuanzi, and Yuanshi Tianzun, who always values face more than anything else, will definitely not agree to this if he has another choice.
It's a pity that Shi Zhongkui thought so, but Zhen Yuanzi knew very well that no one could take away the ginseng fruit trees. The trouble that had been bothering him was the distribution of ginseng fruits.
It was just a verbal promise without any actual guarantee, so how could he rest assured?
There were many examples of Chan teaching cheating on himself during the period of the Conferred Gods.
Take the Ten Jue Formation as an example. Several of the Twelve Golden Immortals used their disciples' lives to test the situation within the formation.
Even Yuanshi Tianzun himself sent two second-generation disciples into the formation.
Zhen Yuanzi didn't say something clearly, but even Shi Zhongkui understood it. There was no reason why Yuanshi Tianzun couldn't hear his worries.
Yuanshi Tianzun sighed helplessly in his heart, secretly thinking that he was indeed a little impatient back then, so that in the eyes of outsiders, what he did was a little too much.
Looking away from Shi Zhongkui, this kid still knew the importance of reputation. Ever since he joined the Chan Cult, he had never heard of his disciple harming one of his own.
He looked at Zhen Yuanzi again, "Fellow Taoist, have you really decided?"
Zhen Yuanzi nodded, "Pindao and the Governor hit it off immediately and fell in love with each other. There is no reason to regret it."
Shi Zhongkui was speechless for a moment, but Yuanshi Tianzun had made a decision, and it would be disrespectful to oppose it.
But Shi Zhongkui clearly respected his teachers, but secretly he was not so easy to talk to.
I have always wanted to ask for the Yuxu Xinghuang Flag, so I might as well take this opportunity to try again.
Even if that doesn't work, you can just ask for a powerful attacking treasure.
Moreover, he was about to become a quasi-sage, and he helped the Chan Cult to win over a veteran quasi-sage. It made no sense that Yuanshi Tianzun, the master, would not give him any reward.
He raised his hands to Zhen Yuanzi and said, "Great Immortal, please wait a moment. I have something to report to my master."
Zhen Yuanzi immediately mistakenly thought that Shi Zhongkui was still unwilling to sworn sworn brothers with him. Fortunately, since Shi Zhongkui wanted to gain benefits, he immediately felt a little aggrieved, so it was not a big problem.
"Da Immortal, please rest assured. Since Xiao Dao is willing to come with Da Immortal to see the Master, he must not be someone who goes back on his promise."
Zhen Yuanzi felt relieved and walked a few hundred meters away to the withered flower pavilion in the backyard.
On the pretext of looking at the scenery, Shi Zhongkui walked up to Yuanshi Tianzun and began to coo.
Yuanshi Tianzun couldn't help but feel happy after hearing Shi Zhongkui's promise that he would definitely become a veritable quasi-sage within ten years.
But then he heard Shi Zhongkui hint that he wanted the Yuxu Apricot Flag as a protective magic weapon, and he couldn't help but frown slightly.
How many times has this hozen begged for this treasure?
All things considered, it was at least the third time.
And with the Ninth Grade Creation Green Lotus in hand, there is no need for an additional Jade Void Apricot Flag.
But Shi Zhongkui made it so clear that if he didn't reward him with anything, it would really be unreasonable.
If he cooed a few words in front of outsiders, someone would definitely gossip about him.
