Chapter 26: She Gave Too Much!
After learning from the old woman that unless she didn't want to live, it was best to draw a line with the "Wong Tai Sin", Yin Yue didn't force anything more.
With her current status, making money is important, but it has not reached the point where she has to stake her life.
And even at this moment of low mood, Yin Yue still realized that the next step should be a transaction between Lu Jiu and the old woman, so she simply took this opportunity to say that she would go down and wait first, and as for what to do with the weasel, she gave it to Lu Jiu.
By the time the iron gate outside the elevator was closed again, there were only two people left in the room.
"Heh, it's a girl with a lively brain, knowing that she can't control this animal, so she just gives you a favor, if you want to sell it, it's still the price just now. ”
The old woman still spoke straightforwardly, and said again after stuffing the weasel into the bamboo cage.
"Whether it wants to sell it or not can be discussed later, you should be specifically selling demon beast corpse materials, but I looked around, why didn't I see demon blood?"
Casually setting aside the bamboo cage, Lu Jiu's eyes circled around the window and the glass jars soaked in various biological materials behind him.
"You want to buy demon blood, what's the matter, you have to fight for your life in the near future?"
The old woman looked Lu Jiu up and down, and suddenly sneered,
"It doesn't look like you're going to die with others, so you can't suppress the evil thoughts in your head, in this case, I advise you to buy two packs of arsenic more directly, at least it won't hurt others. ”
Lu Jiu didn't understand the meaning of the old woman's words, but frowned and looked back.
"Are you pretending to be confused or are you really confused, didn't your guide tell you about the role of demon blood?"
"Guide?"
Lu Jiu became more and more puzzled, he just wanted to buy demon blood, how could he be involved in some guide.
Seeing the confused expression of the young man in front of her, after a short silence, the old woman suddenly raised her eyes to stare at Lu Jiu, and asked, "You don't have a guide, and you have become a demon veiner, tell me, have you eaten the flesh of demon beasts or drunk their blood recently?"
"I don't quite understand what you mean, can you elaborate?"
The blood in the bamboo tube and the blood of the gray feather crow are naturally demon blood, but Lu Jiu didn't mean to say it at all.
Realizing that the old woman in front of her was likely to know the situation in the transcendent world, Lu Jiu decisively chose to change the topic.
You must know that what Lu Jiu lacks most now is information about the transcendent world, and if you want to understand the reason for your abnormal changes, this is the most likely way at the moment.
"The vigilance is not bad...... No wonder you don't know anything, it turned out that you took this path by yourself, and there are not many people like you today. ”
For Lu Jiu, Gu Gu's behavior, the old woman was not annoyed, as if she had guessed something, and there were a few more different meanings in her eyes when she looked at Lu Jiu, leaning on the cabinet, her fingers tapped on the glass, and then said,
"I'm not interested in money, but if you can promise me one condition, I'll be able to take some time to talk to you about the Demon Veiner. ”
"There aren't many people who aren't interested in money these days. ”
Lu Jiu smiled, but still didn't respond.
Don't be paid, but you have to promise a condition yourself, is it really stupid for him?
"Don't be in a hurry to refuse, what I'm going to ask you to do is a good errand that ordinary demon veiners can't ask for. ”
The old woman did not give up because Lu Jiu showed obvious intention to refuse, but continued,
"I have an agreement with the Jingye Division of Qingding City, sometimes I have to help them deal with some things, the nature is similar to that of temporary workers, now that I am older, I have to help someone with some rough work, the original assistant has recently had an accident, which makes me have to find a new one, ordinary people are not competent, I can't believe those old fritters in Qingding City, like you are just the right young offspring. ”
Speaking of this, the conditions that the old woman wants Lu Jiu to agree to are self-evident.
This job sounds simple, isn't it just helping an old man move things and do some menial work.
The problem is that the occasion for this work is when she is doing things for Yasuyaji!
Don't forget, Lu Jiu only saw the "work content" of Jing Yesi a few days ago, and it was a life-and-death struggle at every turn, even a strong man like Ruan Qingyu almost died on the spot, if the person in front of him really participated in that kind of action, there was no need to mention the dangers that might be encountered.
God knows how her original assistant had an accident!
"I'm really embarrassed, I'm the eighteenth generation of my family, and when my parents were still alive, they often told me that safety comes first in everything, and I haven't even taken a wife yet...... In addition, there is still some unpleasantness between me and the people of the Yasuya Division, and if we meet, it will be another trouble. ”
After thinking about it for a while, Lu Jiu decided to give up this opportunity, he really wanted to understand the transcendent world, but he didn't want to risk his life for some common sense in the eyes of some people.
What's more, Ruan Qingyu had seen Lu Jiu before, and if he found out that his identity was not ordinary, he might suspect that he had gone up beforehand.
"First, I only need you to be an assistant for a week, those of us who have signed an agreement with the Yasuya Division, we already have our own lives, so in order to prevent being recognized, we wear masks when we work, as long as you don't expose yourself, no one will find out for a week, and then you feel that you can't do it, you can leave at any time, I will never stop you, a week is enough time for me to find a successor. ”
Turning the wooden staff in her hand, the old woman's eyes roamed around the store, and then fell on Lu Jiu, the corners of her eyes were wrinkled, and she didn't seem to hear Lu Jiu's refusal just now, but slowly raised a finger.
Lu Jiu shrugged, this couldn't impress him.
"Second, the demon veins help the Jingye Division to do things, and can get the waist card issued by the latter, and become half of the official government, you are my assistant, as long as you do a good job, you can also mix together, in addition to some privileges, if you are interested in doing the same temporary work as me in the future, you can use this waist card to get some special items from them as a reward, not only including the corpse of the demon beast, blood, but also some items that can speed up the awakening process and suppress the fierce thoughts of the demon beast. ”
Second finger.
Lu Jiu raised his eyebrows, he was a little interested.
"Third, I became a demon vein person 20 years ago, and after so many years in this circle, my strength may not be very good, but when it comes to all kinds of information about demon veins, there are few people in the entire Qingding City who know more than me. ”
The third finger.
When the words fell, there was a period of silence.
Syllable~
With his left hand clenched into a fist and smashed into the palm of his right hand, Lu Jiu suddenly spoke: "I suddenly remembered that I have been a bear child since I was a child, and I like to go against my family the most!"
"Being my assistant, dealing with dangerous people is a common thing, you have to be prepared, but as long as you persevere, I guarantee that the benefits you get will definitely be worth the risk you take. ”
Now that a preliminary consensus has been reached, there is no need to hide some words.
"As long as what you just said isn't a lie to me. ”
Compared with the vague conditions before, the three items that the old woman just proposed undoubtedly poked at Lu Jiu's soft underbelly.
Whether it was resources to increase his strength or information about the transcendent world, it was something he desperately needed at the moment.
It's not that Lu Jiu is not firm enough, this old woman has given too much.
Besides, agreeing to the other party to be an assistant is not signing a deed of sale, if there is really any accident, the legs are long on yourself, isn't it?
"My surname is Hu, you can call me Hu Sanniang, in addition, in order to do some restraints, during the one-week probationary period, I will only answer you two questions a day, but today is an exception, although you haven't gone to work yet, but I may ask you a question...... Boy, I'm willing to give you a solution, what you should do is to find a place to have fun, now in this world, a demon vein like you who has no heels wants to find a guide, and no one will answer you even if you kneel and knock in other places!"
Speaking of this, the old woman's gaze moved away from Lu Jiu again, looked at the gas lamp on the top of the store, and a look of remembrance suddenly appeared on her face, and she muttered in a low voice,
"It's not the same as it used to be. ”
