Facing this old man who was made purely of blue smoke, Xia Chen seemed calm, but in fact he was full of vigilance. Since the other party could use blue smoke to transmit sound and form, he must be a superb method that only an extremely powerful magical monk could have.
You cannot be your enemy.*
His mind was spinning rapidly, thinking that since it was Xue Yizhen who stole the old man's wealth, the relationship between the two of them must not be too friendly. Although the enemy of an enemy is a friend, the real problem is very complicated. This old guy's money
The huge wealth is now in my hands, but you can never say that I killed Xue Yizhen and took it from me. I might as well put all the responsibility on that dead man.
So Xia Chen's tone became respectful: "Senior, Mr. Xue is not in the village now. Last night, a powerful enemy invaded the Xue family, and many people died. Mr. Xue led three village owners to hunt down the murderer.
, I guess I won’t be able to come back for a while.”
"A powerful enemy is invading?" the old man said calmly, "Then why did Xue Yizhen give you the storage bag instead of carrying it with him? Are you more important than his son? So trustworthy."
Xia Chen's heart skipped a beat. The old man got to the point with just one sentence. It seemed that he was not easy to fool. He rolled his eyes and said, "Xue Yizhen is suspicious by nature. He can't even trust his own son. How can he trust this junior? It's just that
The junior is an ordinary guest of the Xue family, Xue Yizhen
Secretly giving the storage bag to me would not arouse other people's suspicions, because he was also afraid that the powerful enemy last night would come for this wealth, so he gave it to me... This junior is just an acquired monk, and is completely controlled by Xue Yizhen
, even if you have different intentions, you can't escape from his grasp."
"This reason is very far-fetched. But it's barely justified." Old Man Qingyan said lightly, "Since he is not here, if there is a chance to make this junior soul fly away in the future, you don't have to be a retainer. Leave Xue's house now and take the storage with you.
Follow me."
His tone was calm, but his words were very firm and unquestionable.
Xia Chen was stunned for a moment, thinking that this was human trafficking, and it was too unskilled. He asked, "Where are we going?"
"This is not something you should ask." The old man said.
"Why should I follow you?" Xia Chen said.
"Because the storage bag is mine." The old man said, "Now I am just a mark left in the storage bag. I cannot control things out of thin air, but I can guide you how to enter the Black Triangle. As long as you return the storage bag to me
, I can give you any benefits at will, and it will be a hundred times better than being a hanger-on in the shabby Xue family."
It turned out to be just a mark... I don’t know what ability it has? But you want to use me as a coolie? It’s too easy to deceive people. Xia Chen thought carefully in his heart, but on the surface he shook his head firmly: "Senior, I
I can't go with you. I am a disciple of the Xue family. I must be loyal and responsible to the Xue family until the end of my life. How can I betray you? I am not the kind of villain who is unscrupulous for profit."
He spoke righteously and showed an extremely loyal look. If someone familiar with him saw him, they would definitely slap him a hundred times unceremoniously.
The old man frowned. He was an extremely powerful monk with magical powers. How could he have the patience to argue with a junior here? In his eyes, Xia Chen was like an ant. If he were here, he would just point his finger at him.
It can turn summer dust into ashes.
But now it is just a spiritual imprint, and it has become very fragile after a long period of time. Even its visible existence cannot last long. If you want to get the storage bag back, there is no other way. You really have to rely on this pretending to be stupid.
Junior.
So he softened his tone and said: "Loyalty also comes with a price, as long as you are willing to help me deliver the storage bag to the Black Triangle. The benefits I will give you will be beyond your imagination, and it is not impossible to even break through the realm of supernatural powers...
You don’t have to worry about the Xue family’s revenge. I can tell you, my name is Li Zhenning. As long as you tell my name, Xue Yizhen won’t even dare to touch you with a little finger. It’s good if he doesn’t lose his mind on the spot.”
"I don't believe it." Xia Chen shook his head repeatedly, "Since you said you are so powerful, then why didn't you come out when the storage bag was in Xue Yizhen's hand, and then came out to me? Aren't you afraid that after you come out, Xue Yizhen will
Beat you to a pulp."
"What a joke, am I afraid of Xue Yizhen's ant?" Li Zhenning was furious, making Qingyan tremble violently, "I didn't come out because he rarely opened the storage bag, and even when he did, he was very cautious, so my spirit
The imprint has never been activated. If he knew that what he stole was the treasure belonging to me, Li Zhenning, a dignified monk with the fourth level of supernatural power, I am afraid he would have abandoned his storage bag and run to the corners of the world without his life."
He deliberately emphasized the word "fourth level of supernatural power" in a very strong way, to shock this ignorant young man and let him know how powerful he was.
Damn it, the fourth level of magical power... Xia Chen was stunned for a moment, and his lips trembled. He thought that this old man pretending to be mysterious might be scary, but he didn't expect it to be so scary.
What is the concept of the fourth level of supernatural power? In Daliang Kingdom, the fourth level of supernatural power is heaven and God!
Except for the Haoran sect, the ancestors of the other six sects are only third-level magical monks. There is only one fourth-level magical monk in the Liang Kingdom, and that is the ancestor of the Haoran sect, who is already a legendary figure.
The second-level magical monks who could crush him to death like an ant, such as Taoist Zi Ling, Yun Huarong, Fang Qingran and others, also turned from behemoths into obedient lambs in front of the fourth-level magical powers.
There is a huge difference between him and the fourth level of supernatural power. What kind of characters are in this black triangle? Just two of them appear so impressive.
After a long time, Xia Chen calmed down and thought that it was lucky that you were just a mark, otherwise it would have scared him to death. He became more vigilant and asked tentatively: "Senior, since you are so powerful and you have come out again
, can you just kill Xue Yizhen and everyone in the Xue family, so as to avoid being hunted down and retaliated by the younger generation after they leave with you?"
Li Zhenning glanced at him coldly: "Didn't you just bow to the Xue family and die? Why did you change your face so quickly and think about killing the master and abandoning him? You are so capricious. How can I trust you?"
Xia Chen said without changing his expression: "Didn't Senior say it before? Loyalty also comes with a price. As the saying goes, a good bird chooses a tree to roost in, and fights with those who regard it as a confidant. How could I let you, a fourth-level monk with magical powers, not serve you?
Instead, if you follow a first-level magical monk, wouldn’t that mean you don’t know the current affairs?”
Li Zhenning's expression softened slightly: "Yes, originally you were not even as good as an ant in my eyes, but now you are valuable. When you get to the Black Triangle, I will give you some benefits or you can just follow me and let me
You will benefit from it in this life."
He said this in his mouth, but in his heart he wanted to wait until you reached the black triangle and flick you into flying ash with one finger. Who would dare to keep you, a scoundrel like you who sees profit and forgets his righteousness?
"Thank you, senior." Xia Chen's face was filled with joy. Then he said hesitantly, "But I am still worried about the pursuit of the Xue family. Can senior take action to kill them all, so that I can take your wealth and go on the journey with peace of mind."
"It would be fine if I was stimulated at first, but a long time has passed and the mark is already very weak and cannot kill people." Li Zhenning said calmly, "But don't worry, the mark has the ability to sense.
I can enter your body and make you invisible and avoid the pursuit of the Xue family. They will never find you. I am currently in seclusion. When I get out of seclusion, I can chop the Xue family into pieces at any time."
Xia Chen felt a stone fall in his heart, and said with great joy: "That's great. I have seniors who can make decisions for me. I'm no longer afraid of the Xue family."
Li Zhenning smiled faintly and said nothing. In fact, he did not say everything he just said. If he hid the imprint in Xia Chen's body, he could hide his whereabouts, but at the same time, he also had a way to control Xia Chen's mind and directly transform this junior into a
Become a crazy puppet.
Otherwise, Daliang Kingdom is extremely far away from the Black Triangle. If this kid changes his mind on the way, all the previous efforts will be wasted. Of course, this intention cannot be told to Xia Chen.
"In that case, let's hurry up and get on the road." Li Zhenning smiled gently, "By the way, I don't know your name yet?"
"This junior's name is Xu Gucheng, and he turns out to be an inner disciple of the Haoran Sect." Xia Chen said sincerely.
"Xu Gucheng, oh, that's right." Li Zhenning did not ask "Xu Gucheng" why he gave up the promising future of the disciples of the Haoran sect and insisted on being a slave in the Xue family. He didn't know much about the Liang Kingdom, and at his level
In the eyes of the characters, even the seven sects are just passing smoke.
"Relax your mind, I will project the imprint into your body, and then I will guide you on how to go and how to avoid the Xue family's pursuit." He ordered again calmly.
"Senior, of course you can enter my body, but the journey to the Black Triangle is long after all. I have an eighty-year-old mother, a baby under one year old, and a dozen wives at home waiting for me to earn money for food.
I'm afraid it will take a long time to get there, please see if you can..."
Xia Chen smiled respectfully, looked at Li Zhenning, stretched out his right hand, and made rapid rubbing movements with his thumb and middle finger.
Li Zhenning's face suddenly became ugly, and there was a bit of coldness in his voice: "I said I would give you benefits, but not now, but after you send the storage bag to the Black Triangle, even if it is a normal transaction
, you have to see the goods before you can pay.”
"Senior, that's not what you said." Xia Chen said slowly and calmly, "If you want to hire me as a footman, you can't just talk in vain. Even for ordinary transactions, you need to pay a deposit in advance. Otherwise, when this junior arrives in the Black Triangle, it won't be the same.
As soon as your eyes darken, you will do whatever you say."
Li Zhenning's face became even more ugly: "You, a junior, want to negotiate terms with me? Do you know that a random thought from me can turn you into ashes?"
Xia Chen smiled and said: "Senior, you won't let me turn into fly ash. You still need me to give you a storage bag."
"I can find someone else." Li Zhenning said coldly.
"Then you go look for it. This is the Xue family. Besides me, do you think you can find anyone else?" Xia Chen spread his hands and said in an extremely rogue manner.
Li Zhenning narrowed his eyes and stared at Xia Chen without saying anything for a long time. He did not expect that this ant-like person would dare to threaten him face to face after knowing his identity, and he couldn't help but feel extremely angry.
If he were in the Black Triangle, he would have crushed this bold ant to death long ago, but now it is just a mark after all. Not only can it not be attacked, but it is also gradually showing signs of instability. If it is delayed any longer, it may completely dissipate.
Let me promise you first, wait until we get to the Black Triangle, and see how I can wipe out this snob like you... Thinking of this, Li Zhenning lowered his tone: "I can understand that you want benefits, but I am just a mark now, so I can't Whatever I give you, if you like something, just take it from this storage bag first."
