Lin San frowned: "Taiyi gold crystal and dragon skin are the rarest things in the world. Especially the dragon skin is even harder to get." After thinking for a moment, Lin San smiled bitterly: "It seems that this golden talisman is It’s hard to refine it successfully. So many spiritual stones have been spent in vain.”
"Tap tap tap..." Suddenly there was a soft sound of footsteps outside the door.
Lin San quickly put away the jade pieces, stood up and opened the door.
Pan Changhe stood outside the door with a smile.
"What are you doing here?" Lin San really didn't have much favorable impression of Pan Changhe.
"I'm here to invite Fellow Daoist Lin to discuss matters." Pan Changhe said with a smile.
"Discuss things." Lin San was stunned.
"It's getting late. Let's go." After saying that, Pan Changhe walked towards the gate of the courtyard.
Lin San hesitated for a moment, then raised his foot and followed.
After about a stick of incense, Pan Changhe led Lin San to a three-story attic. There was a plaque "Shunfeng Tower" hanging on the attic.
There were seven or eight people sitting in the hall of Shunfeng Building. They were all in the Golden Core stage. Among them was an old woman who was still in the late Golden stage.
"My fellow Taoists, I'm sorry. I'm late." As soon as Pan Changhe walked into the hall, he clasped his fists and began to apologize.
"Have you brought them?" The old woman from Jin Danqi glanced at Pan Changhe.
"Bring it." Pan Changhe stepped aside, revealing Lin San who was following behind him.
The old woman looked at Lin San for a few times and nodded: "Go sit down on the edge."
Lin San was speechless. He walked to the opposite side, pulled out a chair, and continued.
Pan Changhe sat next to the old woman, picked up the tea cup and drank slowly.
The old woman looked around the hall: "Let me introduce myself first. My name is Wang Caiying. I am the eldest disciple of the city lord. I have summoned you here this time to assign you a task."
After listening to the old woman's words, Lin San's heart skipped a beat and said secretly: Finally, we have to send out a mission.
"This mission is very simple. It just requires you to help Fengyun City pick something." The old woman continued.
"What?" A man dressed as a scholar asked.
"It's a kind of medicinal herb." The old woman didn't hide anything and said it directly.
"Where are you going to let us go to pick herbs?" the scholar-looking man continued to ask.
The old woman smiled slightly: "A wild land."
"What..." The scholar-looking man stood up from the chair: "The wild beasts are rampant in the wild land. The environment is harsh. If you ask us to go to the wild land to pick medicine, isn't it equivalent to asking me to die."
The old woman's face darkened: "Please pay attention to the tone of your words. Yes, the wilderness is very dangerous. But as long as you act carefully, your life will not be in danger."
"What you say is nice." The scholar-looking man snorted coldly: "Since there is no danger to your life, then why don't you go to the wilderness to pick herbs."
"What? You don't want to go?" the old woman said coldly.
"I don't want to die yet. I'm sorry. I have something to do. I'm sorry." After saying that, the scholar-looking man turned around and walked out the door.
"I advise you not to walk out of this door. Otherwise, the consequences will be serious." The old woman said coldly.
"Scare me. I won't do this." The scholar-looking man didn't take the old woman's words to heart at all and walked out of the door on his own.
A sharp murderous intent flashed in the old woman's eyes.
"Ah." A scream sounded from outside the door. Everyone turned around and saw the scholar-looking man who had just walked out lying on the ground. His head was missing.
Originally, there were a few people who wanted to get up and leave. But after seeing the miserable end of the scholar-looking man, several people suddenly became honest.
"Who else wants to leave..." The old woman stared straight at the few golden elixir stage immortal cultivators sitting across from her.
No one spoke.
"Let me tell you clearly. You must accept this mission. It has been completed. Fengyun City will give you your freedom. In addition, it will also give you a large and generous reward. If you have any opinions, you can put them forward now." He waved his hand and said in an imposing manner.
Several golden elixir stage immortal cultivators. You look at me and I look at you. Their expressions are a bit ugly.
"If you have no objection, then I will announce..." the old woman said slowly.
"Wait. I have something to say." Lin San suddenly stood up.
Pan Changhe, who was sitting drinking tea, suddenly frowned. He glanced at Lin San and opened his mouth. He seemed to want to say something. But in the end, for some reason, he swallowed back the words that came to his lips.
The old woman nodded towards Lin San: "What do you want to say."
Lin San took a breath: "I want to ask. You said there will be a large reward for completing the task. Is it true?"
"With my identity, do I need to lie to you?" The old woman's face was obviously unhappy.
"Then let me ask again. What if our mission fails?" Lin San asked while carefully observing the changes in the old woman's expression.
"You will not fail." The old woman said without thinking, "You can't fail either."
Lin San smiled: "The so-called unpredictable situation. What if something unexpected happens then."
"What on earth do you want to say? Say it all directly and happily." The old woman frowned tightly.
"I think everyone here should be aware of the risks in the wilderness. This time we helped Fengchi City go to the wilderness to pick herbs. But we risked a near-death experience. So..." At this point, Lin San paused deliberately. .Then he continued: "So I think Fengchi City should give us some compensation."
"Compensation." The old woman was stunned. She had been in Fengchi City for hundreds of years, and no one had ever dared to ask her for compensation in person.
Lin San nodded: "Yes. Compensate us. And it's a generous compensation. Fellow Taoists, what do you think?" Lin San said the last sentence to the few golden elixir stage immortal cultivators sitting next to him.
Several golden elixir stage immortal cultivators came to their senses and hurriedly stood up. They agreed with Lin San's point of view. If they want us to work hard for Fengchi City, they must give us a generous compensation.
The old woman turned to look at Pan Changhe beside her: "Fellow Daoist Pan, how do you think this matter should be handled?"
Pan Changhe smiled and said: "I am just a small messenger. I have no right to express my opinion." After saying that, he lowered his head and continued to taste the tea in his hand. He no longer looked at the old woman.
The old woman was angry at Pan Changhe's way of shirking responsibility. But it was hard to get angry in front of so many people.
While Pan Changhe drank tea slowly, he said slowly in his heart: Old woman, you want me to take the blame for you. There is no way.
The old woman thought for a moment and looked up at Lin San: "What compensation do you want."
Lin San moved his mouth: "I have no specific conditions. As long as you can make us feel satisfied." Lin San's words are very interesting. There are no specific conditions. But Fengchi City can't fool us casually. At least it must make us feel Just be satisfied.
