Chapter 244: Doing Good
"How many millions? Brother Xia, look at you... how big is your funding gap?" Chen Bo was shocked. Such a high remuneration made him feel like he was getting blood all over his body.
"Not much. Just 70 million." When I heard that Chen Bo wanted to borrow money, I was quite happy.
"Seventy million?! Brother Tian, how can I have so much money... Don't I still owe you 10 million and I can't even get it together to give it to you now? I'll get a few million from my dad and I first."
I'll give you the money as soon as I make up the money. You can figure out a way with the remaining money. If it doesn't work, you can participate in the preliminaries tomorrow as specified by the organizing committee." Chen Bo's heartbeat accelerated. He could still do it with ten million or twenty million.
He could collect it, but with such a huge amount, he would definitely have no choice.
After hearing what he said, I had no place to borrow money. I also gave up the idea of borrowing money from Chen Bo's father. Who could I ask for such a large amount of money? After thinking about it for a long time, I really couldn't think of anyone who would lend it to me.
Give me.
"What are the conditions for the preliminaries? How many games do we need to play?"
You can't borrow money, you can only call it.
"There aren't many. You can get in by defeating three casual cultivators. But Brother Xia, there are only two types of people who dare to participate in the competition. One type is stupid and doesn't know how to write the word "death", and the other type is
Even someone like you is a top-notch character at the same level." As long as he was asked if he wanted to borrow money, Chen Bo was still willing to answer.
"Okay, it seems that we can only fight. I will go to Nanshi to challenge tomorrow." I said helplessly. In just one day, I couldn't find such a large amount of funds.
If there is 100 million in the capital account, there is no need to fight, and there is no need to consume it. Now it seems that I can only accept the challenge. The time is tomorrow morning at seven. I feel a little guilty. Who will I meet?
I hung up Chen Bo's call and called the remaining three people about the competition. All three of them expressed deep sympathy, but they really couldn't come up with the money. They were even poorer than me, at least.
I still have 30 million.
I had no choice but to return to the underworld and continue practicing.
In the evening, in order to prevent unnecessary things from happening before participating in the preliminaries, I decided to go to the preliminaries more than ten hours in advance.
It was dark and windy at night on the highway. Nothing happened for most of the way.
As a result, in the second half of the journey, a black figure suddenly appeared in front of me, speeding on the guardrail of the highway.
He is ridiculously fast. Although he is not as fast as Sun Chongyang, he is still very capable. At least he is much faster than my legs.
I slowed down silently and followed him for a long time. I found that although this person was fast, he still needed to stop and run, and he often had to wipe the sweat off his body.
Could it be that he is an ascetic who exercises in the middle of the night? It seems that he is quite destined. Although he has many friends in Dalong County, he does not have any friends outside. Why not make some friends?
"Hey, brother, we are all Xuanmen monks. I admire you very much. You are still practicing on the highway in the middle of the night. How about we get acquainted?" I opened the car window next to me and shouted.
Just when I was thinking about how old the other person was, the person turned around. When I saw it, I almost hit the guardrail with my car!
Damn it, it’s Li Poxiao!
I was so embarrassed that Li Poxiao was running on the highway in the middle of the night. What was going on?
I turned on the double flashers and drove towards the median on the highway.
"Xia Yitian!" Li Poxiao frowned, his face a little ugly, but he still looked like a master. He flicked the swing of his robe and stood upright on the guardrail.
Half of the sleeves that were originally broken have been removed, and now the other half has been removed. It doesn't look that bad. The blood stains on the Taoist robe are gone. Now they are white after washing. It's been a long time. His hair has grown a lot and is tied with a rubber band.
The bun looks like a Taoist priest.
Seeing how he was so focused on dressing up, he didn't know where he was going.
"Li Poxiao!" I also called his name and instinctively touched the soul urn.
Li Poxiao gritted his teeth and said bitterly: "Xia Yitian, you are raising ghosts to cause trouble, and now you plan to do evil wherever you go! Although I know that I can't take you down now, I won't let you go easily, maybe in a while
time……"
"Okay, Li Poxiao, your situation doesn't look like you are cultivating, does it? Where are you going? I'll take you for a ride. If you want to take care of me, why don't you do it later?" After summarizing his
Dressing up, I made a suggestion. He must have run out of money and was so poor that he couldn't even afford a ticket, right?
"It is our duty to eliminate demons and protect the Tao. However, since you and I have no intersection at the moment, let's say goodbye. When I come back one day, I will definitely take your life." Li Poxiao probably has a grudge against me to a certain extent, and he is against me.
Slippery has also known this for a long time and has no intention of taking a ride on me.
"Haha, are you a demon or not a demon when you use your body to resurrect your soul? Don't tell me, you are still my brother Zhang Yidan. Besides, you and I have no enmity. You came to kill me yourself, and you think you are
Demon or not?" In fact, looking at his tanned face, I still thought of my childhood friend Zhang Yidan. He was dead, but his body was still alive in another way.
"Okay, my trip is to Nanshi. If the wind goes smoothly, I will argue with you today and give you a reason so that you can know who is stubborn." Li Poxiao thought about it and then turned to me.
Come.
He no longer carries the scabbard on his back. The scabbard is also an antique. Maybe it was pawned for him to get food for himself. I should ask Zhao Qian to look for it in the antique market. Maybe I can find it.
"Come on." I sat on the driver's seat, and Li Poxiao followed suit.
After starting the car, Li Poxiao didn't make any movement. I touched Xijun's soul urn with one hand and started driving the car.
"Let me go first, listen to me, everyone should be honest, and then decide what is right and wrong in the end?" I suggested. Let's fight together.
"Okay." Li Poxiao is also very single.
"I've been plotting against others since then..." I recounted my life experience and everything I saw on the road, from what happened in Yitun to when I met him in Dalong County.
Then he recounted a long period of experience that followed, including meeting his master Gan Daozi Qiu Cunzhi in the underworld and receiving education.
Of course, there are some hidden things, such as my wife and sister, I didn’t come out about this matter.
Li Poxiao kept listening and didn't say a word, but from time to time he would raise his eyebrows when he heard something dangerous, and seemed to be shocked by my experience.
When it came to the matter between Zhou Xuan and Zhang Yidan, he also became a little moved and seemed touched.
"I can guarantee that everything I say is not false. Everyone is a sensible person. After teaching Master a lesson, I swear that I will not kill innocent people indiscriminately or do evil things. He is a famous Yin Yang family. Since he is known as
If there is another way to exist in the world, I will not cause harm to the world. However, Zhou Xuan decided to let me take you to the underworld in order for her husband to be buried in peace. I will also do it. So, for the sake of
Neither of you are in trouble, and you are slandering yourself, so you shouldn't occupy a dead person's body, right? How about entering the six realms of reincarnation as soon as possible?" I said quietly.
Li Poxiao was still silent. When he got to the back, he looked at me and said: "My personal experience is different. How can you say that it is wrong for me to borrow a dead body to bring the soul back to life? When I borrowed my body from him, he no longer existed in the world. What happened to him during his lifetime?
I don’t know either, but I didn’t seize his body, but became one with his body, and we only punished evil and promoted good deeds with him. How do you judge that what I did was evil? It’s just contrary to heaven.
Among those who practice Taoism, who is not against heaven? What about you? Besides, Zhou Xuan wants you to arrest me, but how do you know that she wants Zhang Yuanyi to be buried in peace?"
After listening to it, I felt that what Li Poxiao said seemed to make sense. He used his body to do good, but not for evil. So how should I judge his fault?
If Zhang Yuanyi and Zhang Yidan still exist in the world, can I conclude that Yidan can punish evil and promote good like Li Poxiao in his lifetime?
Along the way, no one could argue with anyone. He insisted on justice, while I insisted on reason, and came up with many facts. However, Li Poxiao came from a famous family, and he also knew a lot about the goodness of water and the perfection of all things.
When we arrived at Nanshi, neither of us could match each other, so we could only enter the toll station silently. Li Poxiao proposed to say goodbye to me here.
I asked him where he was going, but he didn't and left calmly.
Chapter completed!
