The moonlight is like water, filling the ditches and ridges of Shiwanda Mountain, bringing a mysterious atmosphere to the various buildings in the Ten Thousand Beast Sect, which are scattered and decorated with carved beams and painted beams.
You Linhua, the steward of the animal pen in the Ten Thousand Beast Sect's main hall, staggered back to the door of the small courtyard where he lived. He waited for a long time before casting a spell to open the courtyard door. He was obviously a little drunk.
It's no wonder that for an ordinary steward like You Linhua, who has no hope of advancing in cultivation, is responsible for handling various affairs within the sect, and is busy and sweating every day, drinking a little wine in the evening is undoubtedly the greatest pleasure.
A super sect such as the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect has many internal affairs. Relying on its disciples to handle various chores will obviously affect their cultivation. Therefore, the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect has set up specialized positions to handle various internal affairs, ranging from low to high.
The high level is divided into four levels: steward, supervisor, deacon, and general manager. These positions are held by disciples in the sect who are less qualified and have no hope of advancement through practice.
These disciples who are not good at cultivation but have management talents can enjoy their lives peacefully as long as they do their jobs well, without having to practice hard every day. What's more, even the managers in the most unimportant positions have more than a dozen men in blue.
Disciples can be called upon, so those who can hold these positions are all disciples who have some foothold in the sect.
You Linhua came to the door and shook his head vigorously. Today he fell down several times inexplicably, but he could not find the reason. He always felt a little weird, so he drank a little more than usual at night.
He sneaked over to a flirtatious female disciple in blue under his command, and vented hard on her fat body before returning with satisfaction. Fortunately, although he was a little drunk on the way back, he couldn't stand still.
Didn't even fall.
After the swaying You Linhua entered the house, he was about to cast a spell to light the lamp, when suddenly a man came out from behind the door, strangled You Linhua's neck with his left arm from behind, and pressed his right hand on You Linhua's Niwan Palace.
, a strong mana rushes down, sealing all the acupoints and meridians all over You Linhua's body. You Linhua, who only reacted at this time, was shocked into a cold sweat. He immediately lost all his drunkenness, but he could not mobilize any mana.
No, I can only stand there obediently and remain motionless.
When the person behind him turned to the table and lit the candle, You Linhua recognized that this person was Lin Qing, who had been deceived by him with the fake "Flame Lion" yesterday. Even though You Linhua was well-known, he could use this similar
This was the first time that You Linhua encountered the violent means of kidnapping that came to him for explanation. Now that he understood what was going on, Yu Linhua, who had recovered a little, wanted to pretend to be in charge and scold Lin Qing.
Seeing You Linhua's expression change and he was about to speak, Lin Qing rushed to You Linhua with a single step, stretched out his hand and opened his bow left and right and slapped You Linhua seven or eight times in the face, then pointed at You Linhua's nose and cursed:
"You bitch, you've blinded your dog eyes. Seeing that grandpa is young, you actually bully grandpa. Grandpa rolled over in the mountains of corpses and blood seas fighting with the demons. Killing you is like killing a dog.
So simple!”
After scolding, Lin Qing took out a short knife from his waist and gestured to stab You Linhua in the chest. Looking at Lin Qing, the short and fat young man who was obedient, honest and honest yesterday, he suddenly transformed into
You Linhua had never seen such an unreasonable rough man with such a ferocious look on his face.
You Linhua, who was completely frightened by the sudden slap in the face and the shining dagger, could no longer see a trace of calmness on his face. He had no doubt that Lin Qing really dared to stab him to death.
This guy was quick to see the opportunity, and hurriedly knelt down in front of Bi Linqing with a "pop" sound and said: "Slow down, master, slow down, the one I gave you yesterday was indeed not a lion. I lied to you, I admit my mistake, I admit my mistake!"
You Linhua, who was born in a cultivator family affiliated with the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect, could be said to have grown up in the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect without much experience, and was naturally timid, greedy and afraid of death. After being frightened by Lin Qing's barbaric methods in the military camp, he actually surrendered.
, which really surprised Lin Qing. He took two steps back, sat on the carved master's chair in the room, and began to question You Linhua.
When Lin Qing was young, he was sold to a sideshow troupe. The ones responsible for guarding him and other children at night were several large vicious dogs. After being sold to the military camp, various dogs in the military camp were responsible for reconnaissance, sentry, and guarding.
Monsters are even more common, so when he heard the two "ouch, ooh, ooh," sounds yesterday, he immediately knew that what he had brought back was a dog.
Originally, Lin Qing, who had the secret of the "Earth Spirit Sect", planned to keep a low profile, and it was best to do anything without attracting anyone's attention. But this time when he went to get the Flame Lion, he was actually tricked by a dog, and he even confused this person.
Taking a dog as a spiritual pet shows how cowardly you are!
You must know that dog monsters are basically low-grade monsters. Only some specially bred dog monsters may be mid-grade monsters. For example, the hunting dog king specially bred by the Ten Thousand Beast Sect is a tracking-type mid-grade monster.
.
Lin Qing, who took that canine monster as his spiritual pet, might have made a big joke that may not be unprecedented in the Ten Thousand Beast Sect, but it is definitely unprecedented.
Lin Qing, who was filled with anger, decided not to suffer the loss of being dumb. He did nothing during the whole day, so he used the Earth Technique to follow You Linhua underground. From time to time, he used the Earth Trap Technique to lower the ground where You Linhua settled.
, just like this, You Linhua fell down for a whole day without any reason.
At night, Lin Qing discovered that the walls and roofs of the houses where the disciples of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect lived had talismans affixed to them. They could not use spells to penetrate through the walls. Although there were restrictions on the ground, they could use earth spells to pass through.
So he used his earthly skills to sneak into You Linhua's residence. Speaking of which, You Linhua was also a foundation-builder, but Lin Qingleng accidentally attacked him from behind and blocked all his magic power, which was why he ended up in such a miserable state.
fate.
According to You Linhua, under the instruction of Deacon Wang, he and Zhang Sanlang cooperated with blue-clothed disciples who specialized in using defective monsters that could not be adopted as monster pets to lead the beasts. These blue-clothed disciples were all just starting out.
, unwilling to cause more trouble, they were finally willing to spend money to exchange for a better monster. The three of them used this method to blackmail the disciples who led the beast, and most of the benefits were taken away by Deacon Wang.
What made Lin Qing even more angry was that You Linhua, who was so frightened that his feet and legs were weak, actually refused Lin Qing's request to lead another flaming lion.
Because the fake "flame lion" that Lin Qing took away was also within the total number registered in the animal pen. If he took another one, it would mean that there was one less flaming lion in the animal pen, which would be discovered when the central hall manager checks the accounts.
"You mean you can't get another one, but you can exchange the fake one for the real one?" Lin Qing said through gritted teeth.
You Linhua seemed to tremble and whispered: "Yes, but the fake one has been made into a spiritual pet by you, so you can't change it again."
The depressed Lin Qing was so angry that he almost went berserk. You Linhua, who was frightened again, quickly told Lin Qing the origin of the fake "flaming lion".
It turns out that in the previous stage, when You Linhua was counting the Flame Lion cubs in the animal pen, he suddenly discovered that there was an extra one at some point. In order not to be accused of being derelict in his work, You Linhua classified the extra one as a newborn.
The cubs were counted in the animal pen registration. Later, You Linhua discovered that this little guy did not look like a flaming lion, so he began to research what kind of monster it was.
This You Linhua has a hobby of studying the types and bloodlines of monsters. As a steward in the animal pen, he has gradually become an expert in this field. It is said that this time it should be easy to determine what kind of monster this is.
beast, but this little guy who looks more like a dog than a lion is not afraid of the flame lion's high-grade monster aura, and can play with the little flame lion without losing the slightest bit in the fight for food. This kind of violation of the monster beast
The nature situation made You Linhua even more curious. After a lot of hard work, You Linhua concluded that this little animal that mysteriously appeared in the animal pen should be the descendant of the ancient Buddhist sacred beast, the Blood Mastiff.
The Buddhist sect has a very long history. Unlike other cultivation sects, the Buddhist sect attaches great importance to preaching among mortals. When it was at its most powerful, it was said that it controlled most of the human countries in Zhongtian Continent, and even had a large number of believers among the demons.
Legend has it that the sacred beast that protects the Buddha is the blood mastiff, the mount of the Buddha. Although no one has ever seen the Buddha, it is recorded in the classics that there is indeed a blood mastiff in the Buddhist sect, but it is not known what grade it is.
According to You Linhua's research, many legendary mythical beasts will leave behind some descendants. Over the long years, the bloodline of these descendants will gradually weaken until they are equal to ordinary monsters. However, sometimes those with the bloodline of mythical beasts will
Monsters will experience atavism, regaining some of their appearance and natural abilities. This should be the case with the red mastiff that Lin Qing adopted as his spiritual pet.
Lin Qing, who seemed to see some hope, hurriedly asked what grade his red mastiff with noble birth was. You Linhua, who had been talking endlessly just now, suddenly looked embarrassed: "It's hard to say now, but if you can feed it regularly,
With some elixirs to improve the monster's cultivation, I estimate that it still has hope of reaching the level of a top-grade monster."
After saying for a long time that the grade of his red mastiff was only promising to be promoted to a high-grade monster, Lin Qing had no choice but to continue to scare You Linhua and see if there was any other way to compensate him.
After some bargaining between the two, You Linhua compensated Lin Qing with the high-level spirit beast ring he used back then and a spirit-nourishing pill that could greatly improve the spirit beast's cultivation.
In fact, a single spiritual nourishing pill that specifically helps spirit beasts improve their cultivation is almost as valuable as the Flame Lion. Coupled with the equally valuable high-level spirit beast ring, it is of course the result of blackmail from the fierce little fat man Lin Qing.
, this time Guanshi You can be said to have vomited blood.
When leaving, Lin Qing threatened again: "You lied to me today, you took the initiative to provoke me, and you took the initiative to ask me to compensate for the things. If you tell what happened tonight, or find someone to take revenge in the future,
, then just wait and fall for the rest of your life!”
"I don't dare, I don't dare." The frightened You Linhua replied repeatedly.
After knowing that Lin Qing was responsible for the fall during the day, Guanshi You completely gave up the idea of revenge. After all, it was too weird to fall over while walking without anything.
