Chapter 183 The tip of the iceberg manifests, forcing it to take action (12.5k)(1/6)
"Teacher..." Su Li was horrified when he heard this, and quickly admonished: "Teacher, why do you decide to attack again now? Wait a moment. I just made meritorious service for the Shadow Division. If I accumulate some more merit, I can exchange it with my merit."
Come to Baodan."
Ji Bochang stretched out a hand to signal Su Li not to worry.
"Teacher, I have already mentioned it to the Lord, and the Lord has agreed."
Ji Bochang was slightly startled when he heard this. Looking at Su Li's concerned face and shining eyes, he stretched out a hand and patted Su Li's shoulder slowly.
His eyes were a little complicated. After looking at Su Li for a long time, he said slowly.
"Su Li, I know that you are actually not lacking in ability. What you are lacking is just the qualifications and cultivation realm that you have gained over time.
However, you have to understand one thing: when encountering something, don’t always rush ahead.
Only when people live can they have a future.
You have to think about it for yourself."
"Teacher, I have thought about it. I am still young. Although my strength is a bit weaker, I have established a foothold in the Shadow Division.
The salary of the Shadow Envoy is not low, and the resources given to me, as well as the resources I obtained from outside, are actually beyond my ability to use up.
The First Lord has promised to leave me a healing elixir.
This time I reached a deal with Jinlanshan, and I have made a great contribution.
It's enough to go out and do one more mission.
Teacher, you still have time to live, and your body’s energy and blood have not yet entered the period of decline. You still have time, so please don’t take such risks.”
Su Li's face was full of anxiety and sincerity. He grabbed Ji Bochang's arm and kept persuading him.
Seeing that Ji Bochang didn't respond immediately, Su Li stood up immediately.
"Teacher, just wait, I will go to see Lord Shouzun now and exchange the treasure pill first."
Su Li left in a hurry, Ji Bochang stretched out his hand to stop him, opened his mouth, but saw that Su Li had disappeared.
He sat there for a long time, holding up his wine glass and drinking it all in one gulp.
On the other side, Su Li returned to the Shadow Division and asked to see Fu Xiao, the leader. When he met, he knelt down on one knee.
"My lord, Su Li has something to ask of me, and I hope you will grant me your permission."
"Get up and talk, we are our own people, we don't need to be so polite in the yamen."
"Sir, I would like to ask if you can exchange for a treasure pill in advance. I need it urgently. I know that my credit is still a little short of that.
But I promise that I will make up for the credit as soon as possible, or I will use other resources to make up for it."
"Did something happen to your teacher?" Fu Xiao asked immediately.
As the leader, he naturally knew that Su Li worshiped Ji Bochang as his teacher and often went to ask for advice.
Su Li's position as the shadow envoy was also inherited by Ji Bochang.
"There is indeed something..." Su Li responded in a deep voice.
Fu Xiao looked at Su Li and smiled, with a hint of appreciation in his eyes.
The more thoughtful a person is, the more they like simple people.
The more dirty a person is, the more he appreciates a pure person.
Because they also hope to have such people around them.
"Your credit is actually pretty much the same. If I give it to you earlier, it doesn't actually break the rules.
However, you should add some resources to save the population, and you can take it back after you have made great achievements."
"Thank you, sir." Su Li was filled with joy and thanked him repeatedly.
Less than half an hour later, Ji Bochang stood up and was about to leave when he heard a knock on the door outside.
The old servant went to open the door and saw Su Lifeng rushing in, holding a jade box in his hand and placing it on the table.
"Teacher, Master Shouzun promised to let me get it in advance."
Su Li was overjoyed. He opened the jade box and saw inside it a wax-sealed elixir, with divine light hovering and restrained charm. Just the fragrance had a refreshing effect.
Ji Bochang looked at the treasure pill, his expression was a little shocked, and he was stunned on the spot.
His thoughts began to drift far away in the halo of Bao Dan.
"teacher……"
Su Li's voice slowly changed into the boy in his memory, that is, the young him.
He thought that when he was young, he had a teacher just like Su Li.
However, he is not as pure as Su Li.
At that time, his teacher was recovering from a serious injury and was about to die, so he wanted to fight to the death.
His teacher spent all his wealth in exchange for a treasure pill in order to force a breakthrough and extend his life.
At that time, he wondered why his teacher was still wasting a precious pill when the chance was extremely slim.
Gradually, he became greedy and began to wonder if it would be better if he had this treasure pill.
Then, greed overwhelmed him.
He took advantage of his teacher's last day of preparation to take the treasure pill.
As a protector of the Dharma, he forced his way into the retreat.
Who would have thought that his teacher had already been on guard against him, laying out various traps and formations in advance.
However, once the arrow has been shot, there is no way back.
He tried his best and used everything his teacher taught him to finally break through the obstacles and reach the secret room of seclusion.
Killed his teacher inside.
His teacher, with a complicated look in his eyes, finally showed a smile and closed his eyes completely.
At that time he didn't understand why.
Until he opened the jade box where the elixir was stored and discovered that it actually contained a elixir that was used to strengthen the foundation and strengthen the foundation.
Only then did he realize that his teacher had no intention of breaking through at all. The pill used for breakthrough was not this kind at all. This pill was just for him.
His teacher was about to die and all the elixirs were useless, so he gave him one last lesson.
According to his teacher's teachings, if you want something, you have to fight for it with your life and get it yourself.
In this world, you have to fight to see who is more ruthless.
This is to give him the last test, to induce him to get it himself.
No matter how much you talk or teach, it will never be as profound as this lesson.
He was in agony and fell into self-blame and guilt. Later, he slowly understood that this was the real last test.
He couldn't get out of this state of mind because he wasn't ruthless enough.
Later, he indeed became more and more cruel and cold-hearted.
"Teacher...Teacher..."
The call came, pulling him back from his thoughts.
Ji Bo often looked at the treasure pill on the table.
It was a treasure pill again, but this time, as a teacher, the disciple tried his best to get him a treasure pill.
Only then will he fall into memories and be unable to extricate himself.
He reached out his hand trembling uncontrollably and closed the jade box again.
At this moment, his eyes were as complicated as when his teacher was dying.
The memories that had been buried deep in my heart for so long suddenly jumped out and punched him.
He even felt a little shaken and had a little doubt as to whether he was right or wrong back then.
Faced with a rare treasure elixir that was worth as much as treasures from heaven and earth, he had no greed in his heart.
He suddenly understood a word, hot.
"Take it back. I'll listen to you and wait a few more years."
"I've already replaced it. There's no reason to give it back. The rules of the Shadow Division can't be such a child's play. Teacher, please put it away. Take the treasure pill first and fully recover your body before talking."
"Okay, I'll listen to you."
Seeing that Ji Bochang seemed to be convinced, Su Li looked at the sky and realized that it was already dark.
"Then, teacher, you go to bed early and I won't disturb you."
Su Lishan left with a smile.
Ji Bochang sat there, his face turning green and white. After a moment, he opened his mouth and spurted out a mouthful of blood.
