"I can lead so many talented people, I don't have any real skills, and I really don't dare to say such big things. We believe that you have the ability, but it is not yet known whether you can help us. The owner of the bun shop said.

They deliberately didn't give me a definite answer, leaving me at a loss.

I understand what they mean, they don't want to be led by the nose.

I said, "Guys, I'm sure each of you has a measure in your heart, and I know what you're worried about, and I'm here to make a promise to you, as long as you help me destroy the Phantom Gang, I'll help you fulfill your wishes, and I won't let you have any worries." ”

The promises have been made, and what could be more reassuring to them?

"If you're still not at ease, I can make a military order with you. "I'm trying to convince them now that the longer I hesitate, the less good it will do me.

The owner of the restaurant looked approvingly and said, "I appreciate that young people should have confidence and courage." I don't think we should hesitate, just choose them. ”

The owner of the tea shop seemed to be still uneasy, and wanted to say something, but was interrupted by the hotel owner's hand.

The owner of the hotel should be the eldest of several people, and his speech is more authoritative, "Little brother, our cooperation has been reached." ”

I quickly hugged my fists and thanked him, "Thank you for your support." In addition, I have one more thing I want to trouble you, which is related to Lin Jiang. Can you please ask a few people to say good things for me and get him to join in. ”

The owner of the bun shop waved his hand, "That guy is very strange, he doesn't talk to us much, let's persuade him, it's strange that he can listen." ”

"Aren't you all from above?"

"It's all from above, but the above is also divided into regions and different management, and we are not in the same region as him, so we are not familiar with him. ”

Since that's the case, then I can't force them, "Okay, Lin Jiang's matter, I won't trouble you, I'll figure it out." ”

"You've been here for a long time, you should be familiar with the Phantom Gang, guys, do you have any good plans or methods?"

"We can't just stand at the door all the time to discuss, come in, come in, let's sit down first. ”

This is destined to be a major negotiation, one that can affect the future, and may even change the future.

This negotiation lasted more than three hours, and we agreed on the next actions and plans, and I also know that they have been stationed here for a while, and they were stationed here first, and then the Phantom Gang appeared.

They know a lot more about the Phantom Gang than I do, and with this important information, we know each other better, as the saying goes, knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent is the only way to win a hundred battles.

It wasn't until three or four o'clock in the afternoon that our talks came to an end.

"Everyone, then I'll take my leave. ”

After saying goodbye to them, I didn't go back directly, but went to the temple to find Lin Jiang.

At this time, it is best to strike while the iron is hot, and if you miss this opportunity, you will be able to persuade him later, I am afraid it will be a little difficult.

When I came to the temple, I saw that the door of the temple was open, and I walked straight in.

The incense candle in front of the statue was still emitting a trace of green smoke, and the incense candle only burned a small part, which should have just been put on.

I didn't see anyone on the way here, and they definitely didn't go out.

I walked around the temple and found that the quilt was very messy, and the quilt was still warm, and the person must have just left.

The temple was empty, and if anyone came out, I couldn't have gone unnoticed, so I judged that they certainly hadn't left the place.

I didn't leave here, and there was no one in front of me, there was only one possibility......

I looked up, and sure enough, I saw Lin Jiang and Xiaobai on the beam.

I clasped my hands in front of my chest and looked at Lin Jiang with interest.

Lin Jiang smiled "hehe", "How do you know I'm here?"

"I have a soul. ”

Lin Jiang jumped down from the beam of the house with Xiaobai in his arms, then put Xiaobai on the ground, clapped his hands, and asked me, "What are you doing here again?"

"Looking for you. I pulled a stool and sat down, crossing Erlang's legs, "I've seen the old ghosts, and I know your identity." ”

Lin Jiang didn't react at all, as if he had expected all of this a long time ago, "Really, what did they say?"

"They said they promised to help me get rid of the Phantoms, and then I would help you achieve what you wanted. You're all from there, just like them, and you want to go back sooner, right?" I gestured to it.

Lin Jiang spread his hands, "How can you see it?" I don't think it's fun at all, on the contrary, I think it's fun and interesting here. ”

"Really?" I looked at him, "and what are you bringing me to you for?"

"Who led you, how I don't understand what you mean. ”

This guy is clearly pretending to be confused.

Everyone actually knew very well in their hearts, it was really boring to pretend to be here, I stood up and asked very directly, "Brother Lin, let's not sell it here, you know what my purpose is, I'll ask you now, do you want to cooperate with us? If you want, let's talk about it, if you don't want to, then I'll turn around and leave now, and never pester you again." ”

Lin Jiang looked at me for a while without speaking, I looked at him, waiting for him to give me an answer.

He didn't say it, I didn't say it, I said everything I had to say, and now I'm waiting for him to give me an answer.

"Brother Lin, can you give an answer. I urged again.

"Huh. Lin Jiang smiled, subconsciously looked at Xiaobai, and I followed his gaze.

He should be asking Xiaobai's opinion, since they don't want people to know their true master-servant relationship, then I won't say anything.

I waited patiently, and after a while, Lin Jiang called me, "Brother Zhao, let me tell you this, I really think this place is more interesting than the above, and I admit that I deliberately brought you here, but I don't want you to help me go back to it." ”

"Oh, what do you mean?" I asked, looking at him.

Lin Jiang found a place to sit down by himself, and looked at me with some weirdness in his eyes, "I want to ask Brother Find to help me find something." ”

"What's that?" this man is really strange, and if there is anything that he can't say clearly, he has to ask me again.

Lin Jiang gestured with his hand, "It's something that can only be found on it." I can't tell Brother Zhao what that thing is for the time being, but I'll help Brother Zhao deal with the Phantom Gang. When Brother Zhao can enter it, I'll tell you what that thing is. ”

I chuckled and didn't say anything.

I always feel that Lin Jiang is playing a game of cat and mouse with me, and since everyone has reached an agreement, what else can't be said?

If we really have the old ghost and them joining, then our chances of winning will be much greater, and whether there is him or not, in fact, it doesn't matter much.

He doesn't want to tell me that thing now, what if, that thing is important, or, it's hard to get his hands on, and I'm accepting his help now, and I can't afford to repay his kindness in the future?

So, in any way, I couldn't agree to his request.

"Brother Lin, I understand what you mean, and I understand, but I'm sorry, I can't agree to your request, unless, can you tell me first, what is the thing you asked me to help you find?"

Lin Jiang shook his head without hesitation, "I really can't tell you this for the time being." ”

I got up directly, "Then I'm sorry, I'm afraid our cooperation will end here." ”

Lin Jiang was not in a hurry, and said slowly, "Brother Zhao, no one knows the Phantom Gang better than me, even the old ghosts, and they don't know much better than me." ”

I stopped and looked back at him, "What do you mean?"

"They know the Phantoms because they want to use them, and I know the Phantoms because they are my enemies. ”

Enemy?

Where does this begin?

Lin Jiang knew that I would ask this, and before I could ask a question, he took the initiative to explain, "Brother Zhao, the grievances between me and the Phantom Gang are not something that can be explained clearly in one or two sentences, if you really want to hear it, you come to me another day, and I will explain it to you slowly." But now is not the time to talk about those things, what I can tell you is that I have a grudge against the Phantom Gang, and a person can not understand himself, but he must understand the enemy, and I am not wrong, right?"

After being in contact with him for so long, only this sentence is very sincere.

I'm sure what he said this time is true, but I still can't easily agree to him, after all, I don't know what the thing he asked me to help me find is.

However, the temptation he mentioned did make me very excited.

I asked again, "Then Brother Lin still doesn't plan to tell me the thing you asked me to find? If Brother Lin refuses to tell me, then I still can't agree to cooperate with Brother Lin." ”

"Does Brother Zhao have to be so stubborn?"

I shook my head, "It's not that I'm stubborn, it's that I've always been very cautious, I don't do things I don't know about, and I won't do things I don't know." ”

"Brother Zhao is really a principled person. Lin Jiang shook his head helplessly, "Okay, okay, since Brother Zhao wants to know, then I'll tell Brother Zhao." The thing I'm looking for is a forbidden item, and the old ghosts are all regular staff above, and people like me belong to the external editor. If they want to go back, they must consider making contributions, I'm afraid that if you inadvertently say that you leaked your mouth and they know, then I'll be finished. ”

I asked, "What kind of contraband?"

"Taishang Laojun's Soul Pill. ”

Taishang Laojun?

Isn't this a legendary character in mythology, but there really is such a person.

In Journey to the West, Sun Wukong stole the elixir of Taishang Laojun is probably known to everyone, that is to say, he asked me to help him go to Taishang Laojun to steal things.

I'm a small cultivator, even if I have cultivated, I am a scattered immortal with no name, I can only wander outside the Nine Heavens, and I can't go to the real Heavenly Palace, so how can I steal it?

Besides, I'm not good at stealing this kind of thing, and I can't guarantee that I can do it.
