Chapter 18: The Fool

After a moment of silence, Coulson finally finished searching, and asked with some curiosity: "Nie Bao, I don't see it at all, you are still a religious person, but I have never heard of it, people who believe in Taoism, and this kind of ability, is it that all Taoist priests are aliens?" ”

"No, Taoist priests were also pioneers in ancient times, the earliest scientists, they pioneered chemistry, and they were the first inventors to use chemical methods to refine plant essences. So please don't classify us as aliens, that's an insult to us, and we didn't make a fortune by mutation. ”

Coulson listened to Nie Bao while silently checking the information with the other hand, and when he heard this, he said with some emotion: "I see, I have heard of some of them, but I didn't expect that even Taoist priests have such a mystery, and the secrets of this world are really endless." That shield, which is also a means of science, is based on what principle. ”

"My Celestial Empire has been passed down to the present, with a history of more than 5,000 years, as long as anything exists for a long time, there are many natural secrets, and it has developed for two hundred years now, right? How advanced science and technology are, the means are not much worse than the gods, our history is 25 times that of yours, how can there be no means at all? The magic weapon is the means of self-protection invented by us in order to reach the other side of immortality.

And I am an immortal cultivator among Taoist priests, whose purpose is to cultivate myself, comprehend heaven and earth, explore mysteries, seek the avenue of immortality, unite heaven and man, and transcend mortals. Gunpowder is a by-product of this process, and who would have thought that just one by-product would make such a big difference in the world. In order to win Coulson's trust, Nie Bao pretended to be proud as he spoke.

Coulson secretly observed Nie Bao's expression, it may be that after he became an immortal cultivator, his spiritual power and mind and other main aspects have been greatly improved, and his expression is not flawed at all when he talks about panic, plus what he said has a nose and eyes, which is very consistent with the history of the Celestial Empire. Coulson was already convinced by this time.

"In other words, you didn't awaken for special reasons, cultivating immortals was refined by ordinary people, can everyone be so powerful." Coulson's eyes lit up when he said this, and he thought that if he could use it, it would be a sharp means, although he didn't understand what it was to cultivate immortals, what was the unity of heaven and man, and it sounded lofty, but in his understanding, it was just like an alien, some mysterious means.

"Immortal cultivators are indeed a title for some ordinary people seeking immortals, but ordinary people are not necessarily immortal cultivators, the road is extremely difficult, and it is naturally not so easy to become an immortal cultivator. Otherwise, we would have carried it forward a long time ago, and you would not have heard of us like you do now. "Nie Bao wants to pull the banner and pull the tiger skin, but he doesn't want to be self-defeating, if they want to learn to cultivate immortals, then they should be blind, even he himself relied on Qiankun Ding to embark on this road, and he can't take out Ding, then he is really stupid.

Sure enough, Coulson was a little disappointed after hearing this, but thinking about it, Nie Bao's methods are not similar to other aliens, maybe they are really as he said, but in this way, the general context is clear, and the strength is also traceable, the only thing to worry about is the danger and stability of this power.

"Nie Bao, can I understand that this kind of power can only be cultivated by a few people, and this power comes from practice, it is very stable and not dangerous."

"Stability, my strength comes from cultivation, and every point is under control, because we think that only the power that can be controlled belongs to us. As for the danger, what to say! I don't know how you determine the danger of a weapon, so I can't answer that question. However, what our Taoist priest is talking about is that I am quiet and inactive, the Tao is natural, and I am kind to others, so I think I should be considered very dangerous. Nie Bao shook off the dust, and his mouth was like a river of gushing nonsense, which stunned Coulson.

No matter how smart Ren Coulson is, at this time he can't tell the truth from the fake, the image of the Taoist priest displayed on the mobile phone is really similar to the image of Nie Bao's flickering method, except that he is a little poor, there is no difference, he himself does not know much about the Taoist priests of the Celestial Empire, plus what Nie Bao said is consistent with the situation of the Taoist priest, he really can't find fault, and at this time he has basically believed his words.

Coulson pondered for a while, through this period of time observation, Nie Bao's eyes are clear, smart, not murderous, not as irritable as the distorted personality of the alien, it seems that even if what is said is false, it will not have too much destructive power, and it is judged that the danger is not high, so as long as he is included in the list of aliens according to the procedure, and there is a special person to supervise him, just like other aliens, anyway, he doesn't know much about Taoist priests, and they are all included in mysterious things.

Thinking of this, Coulson got up and said with a smile: "Thank you for your hospitality, it's rare that you are so cooperative, the investigation is so smooth, the evaluation of you has been completed, we are not enemies, I hope we can become friends, after all, my S.H.I.E.L.D.'s duty is to maintain order, please understand." ”

As soon as Nie Bao heard these words, he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, through this conversation, he saw Coulson's smiling face, and at this time he also had a trace of sincerity, he escaped a catastrophe, he would not come up and shout and kill, cut it into slices for research, and said easily: "It doesn't matter, I just want to live an ordinary life, cook every day, do some small business It's good, and I'll be very happy to see others eat my food, and I'll be very happy, so as long as you don't trouble me." ”

Hearing Nie Bao's indifferent words, Coulson finally put his mind at ease, he could see that Nie Bao's words were sincere, willing to be an ordinary person with peace of mind, and there were few people with such worry-free ability.

So Coulson smiled and said: "How is it possible, we will not casually ask for trouble with law-abiding citizens, that is not in line with our purpose, so please don't be careful." By the way, one more thing, please don't show your abilities in front of ordinary people, cause riots, and it will be very troublesome to deal with. ”

"Don't worry, I also want to live a few days of peace, I won't ask for trouble, since my problem has been investigated, then there is nothing to do with me! Earning money with peace of mind is the king. Nie Bao smiled calmly.

"Of course, you have no problem, but, Nie Bao, I don't know if you are interested, and you have one more job." Coulson said with a smile, it seems that S.H.I.E.L.D. has never given up on recruiting Inhumans.
