Chapter 3: The World of the Cultivators
As soon as Lu Tao got out of control, he ran in the opposite direction, until he ran in front of the middle-aged man in white, and then he breathed a long sigh of relief.
Now, you don't have to die, right?
Only at the moment of escaping from the world, Lu Tao deeply felt that the previous death was all nonsense, who would want to die if he could live? Thinking about it carefully, there are still so many delicious foods in this world that are worth trying, Lu Tao feels that it is really good to be alive.
As soon as he relaxed, the hunger that had disappeared before because of the imminent death began to rise again, and Lu Tao felt so hungry.
"Tell me, what's going on?"
The middle-aged man in white glanced at Lu Tao, Lu Tao's heart tightened, and he felt a heavy pressure from the other party's eyes, are the eyes of this group of people so powerful?
After stabilizing his mind, Lu Tao spoke: "In the morning, I picked up a cat. ”
As he spoke, Lu Tao glanced back at the black cat that was originally being held by the short-haired youth, which was also thrown out and fell to the ground not far away, motionless...... Well, let's hope it's alive.
Lu Tao turned his head and continued: "The cat was seriously injured, I brought it back and bandaged it, and in the afternoon, these two people came." ”
Subsequently, Lu Tao told the middle-aged man in white in front of him all the things he remembered, including the conversation between the two, and after speaking, everyone fell silent, Lu Tao waited for a while, raised his eyes and glanced at the middle-aged man in front of him, but saw him frowning, as if he was thinking about something.
Then, the middle-aged man frowned, as if he had figured something out. He bypassed Lu Tao and walked to the two who were lying on the ground unable to get up.
"Your behavior has violated the rules of the Monk Alliance, I will inform the Nine Palaces of this matter, I believe that your master should teach you what the Monk Alliance is, and in addition, you are not allowed to enter the territory of Anmen for less than a year!"
Anmen is the city where Lu Tao is now, a small city surrounded by mountains.
The two people lying on the ground seemed to be seriously injured, and they couldn't even speak, and the middle-aged man in white didn't mean to wait for their response, he stretched out his hand, and the motionless black cat on the ground came to his hand, and the middle-aged man walked back to Lu Tao's side and threw the cat with bandages in his hand in the direction of Lu Tao.
"Next!"
Lu Tao hurriedly caught the cat that flew over and looked at each other suspiciously.
"Originally, you as an ordinary person knew something that you shouldn't know, just erase your memory, but since you have contracted this civet cat, the matter is not something I can handle, you can call me Jin Lingzi, now, I have to take you to a place. ”
Demon Cat Spirit Cat Lu Tao was keenly aware of the different names of the black cat in Jin Lingzi's mouth, but now is obviously not the time to think about this, after Jin Lingzi finished the above words, he nodded at the person called "Elder Li" behind him, and walked out without saying a word.
Lu Tao didn't want to stay here, he held the black cat who didn't know life and death, followed Jin Lingzi step by step, passed through the unmanned tea shop, and came to the street outside.
Following behind Jin Lingzi, Lu Tao couldn't help but think that the person in front of him must be the kind of cultivator who can move mountains and reclaim the sea in novels and TV, and now that he is alive in front of him, Lu Tao has a strange feeling.
Lu Tao felt that it must be the feeling that the worldview was shattered.
Jin Lingzi stopped on the side of the road, Lu Tao imagined those pictures of flying away, strengthened his courage, and asked, "Jin Lingzi...... Senior? Jin Lingzi, senior! Where are we going? Do you want to fly directly over the sword?"
"What are you thinking? We're going to get in the car. ”
Jin Lingzi took out a mobile phone from his pocket and began to make calls.
......
Jin Lingzi's predecessor called a black car, and Lu Tao had never seen the car logo on it. Sitting in the car, Lu Tao was still a little confused, this was completely different from the cultivator he imagined?
Sneaking a glance at the side, Jin Lingzi was closing his eyes to recuperate, although there were many questions, Lu Tao thought about it and still didn't bother.
The two monks of the Nine Palaces have already seen the indifference of ordinary people, from everything he has just experienced, Jin Lingzi's predecessor should be a relatively friendly person, but Lu Tao is still vigilant, and before understanding the other party's character, he can't be too cautious.
The scenery outside the car window gradually became different, this is already the scope of the urban area, the surrounding cars and people have begun to increase, and the buildings on both sides have also changed in the direction of high-rise buildings, Jin Lingzi opened his eyes, glanced at Lu Tao, and said: "I believe that after the previous events, you already know that we are different from ordinary people, we are cultivators, you can also call us monks, and at the same time, I am also one of the law enforcement officers of the Monk Alliance in Anmen, meet me, your luck is really good." ”
Lu Tao also felt that his luck was really good, if he hadn't happened to meet Jin Lingzi, probably his body would be cold now. The two monks of the Nine Palaces were so jealous of the Monk Alliance, but they didn't expect to hit the muzzle of the gun as soon as they turned around, if they didn't take this step to bring themselves to the contact point of the Desperate Island, I'm afraid there wouldn't be so many things.
What Jin Lingzi wants to say next should be something related to his future fate, Lu Tao sat up straight, held his breath, and began to get serious.
"The Monk Alliance is an organization led by the six major sects and several scattered cultivators, the purpose of which is to restrict cultivators from attacking ordinary people, or interfering excessively in the secular world, and the two juniors in the Nine Palaces have violated the iron rule of the Monk Alliance - not to attack ordinary people. Of course, that's not the point of today, you're an ordinary person, and I can erase your memories of today, when everything hasn't happened, but because this civet has made a contract with you, things get a little troublesome. ”
Jin Lingzi paused for a moment and continued to speak: "This civet cat has taken the initiative to sign a life sharing contract with you, if either party dies, the life span of the other side will be greatly reduced. As for those two juniors of the Nine Palaces who want to kill you and break the contract, either they don't know the type of contract on your body, or they don't care about how much life the civet cat has left. Now, you need to make a choice, there is a senior in the Monk Alliance, I can ask him to make you turn back into an ordinary person, you will not remember what happened today, and there will be no monk to beat you again, but in that case, you will only have a maximum of fifteen years left to live. ”
Jin Lingzi waited for a while, waiting for Lu Tao to digest these contents before continuing to speak.
"Another choice, you become a monk, join a certain sect or become a casual cultivator, the price is to lose the identity of an ordinary person, if there are any more cultivators to attack you, the monk alliance will not care. Let me remind you, the path of cultivation is very difficult to walk, there are human calamities and heavenly calamities, you have missed the best cultivation period at your current age, it is difficult to join the sect, and it is even more difficult to cultivate as a casual cultivator, so in other words, the rest needs to be chosen by yourself. ”
"I ......"
Lu Tao wanted to open his mouth to speak, but was interrupted by Jin Lingzi: "Think about it carefully first, and then give me the answer when you get to the place, once you choose, there is no chance to regret it." ”
After speaking, Jin Lingzi's predecessor began to close his eyes again, Lu Tao opened his mouth, but still did not continue to speak.
In fact, does this still need to be chosen? Not to mention that choosing to become an ordinary person can only live for another fifteen years, how can such a fun thing as cultivating truth slip out of his hands? In the courtyard behind the tea shop, when Jin Lingzi said those words to himself, Lu Tao began to look forward to such an ending, having seen the superhuman power of the cultivator, Lu Tao was both curious and vigilant, there is still such a group of supermen in this world, how can Lu Tao be willing to take his life and death to others?
Especially the two people before, they know where they live, they know what they look like, except for not knowing each other's names, they know everything about themselves, Lu Tao doesn't believe that they won't come to settle accounts with him after this incident.
Moreover, although Jin Lingzi said that they would not be allowed to enter Anmen for less than a year, there were many ways to kill an ordinary person, so Lu Tao was not considering whether he could live for another fifteen years like an ordinary person, he was considering the choice between living for a maximum of one year and becoming a monk.
So, you don't have to choose at all!
Lu Tao glanced at the black cat that had been held by him, it turned out that his life had been connected with it, looking at its weak appearance now, this guy must not die! I just don't know what kind of life sharing contract it signed with him, Lu Tao has no impression at all.
When the sky began to get dark, the car that Lu Tao and Jin Lingzi were riding in stopped and stopped under an office building with an unknown number of floors.
"Have you thought about it?"
Jin Lingzi opened his eyes, and then glanced at Lu Tao.
"I've thought about Jin Lingzi's seniors, and I choose to be a monk!"
"Good, come with me!"
Jin Lingzi opened the car door and stepped out of the car, Lu Tao hurriedly followed, I don't know if it was an illusion, Lu Tao seemed to see some kind of approval in the eyes of Jin Lingzi's predecessors when he replied that he chose to be a monk.
