Text Chapter 2410, Greed
Although the civilization of cultivators in this world is low, there are still some cultivators, different from ordinary martial artists, the skills of cultivators are obviously much more sophisticated, plus there are also sophisticated equipment such as magic weapons used by cultivators, ordinary martial artists are not opponents of these guys at all!
Then, here's the problem! Bian Ancheng has always been famous for its strict law enforcement, Zhou Chuan's ancestor even killed the prince directly, and the strict law enforcement is famous all over the country! As a result, I don't know where a guy who is so idle that he wants to challenge the laws of Bian Ancheng and do evil in Bian Ancheng!
Zhou Chuan, as a new generation of city lords, adheres to the group training, and naturally will not let such villains do nothing, so when the villains are in trouble, Zhou Chuan immediately sets a trap to capture the villains with vigorous and resolute means! Unexpectedly, that villain turned out to be a low-level cultivator, and when he was unwilling to be captured by mortals, he directly fought with Zhou Chuan's subordinates! As a result, the net was not broken, but the fish died upright, so a cultivator who had no interest was really the only one to see in his life!
But the bad thing is that before that guy died, he sent a signal and sent the news of his death, which is a bad thing, once that guy's division seeks revenge, Bian Ancheng will definitely be in a catastrophe!
Lin Zheng and the others frowned when they heard this, and when Zhou Chuan finished speaking, he said, "If you say that, you don't know when that guy's division will arrive?" But we can't stay here for long, and even if we want to help you, we can't do anything! β
Hearing that Lin Zheng and they were leaving, Zhou Chuan was a little panicked, and hurriedly said, "Mr. Yiping, this is not the end of it at this time!" β
"And the follow-up?!"
"Yes sir!" Zhou Chuan nodded and said what happened next.
It turned out that the evil man's master soon received the news, and not long after, he sent a letter to Zhou Chuan, and the letter paper said in a dignified manner, saying that his own disciple had done evil in the past, and now he was to blame on the spot! But the main drama is coming!
"The man also said that the majesty of the cultivator should not be lightly violated, and since we did not know the identity of his disciple, it would not be too difficult for us, as long as we handed over ten treasures that satisfied him, the matter could be stopped, if not, in order to protect his face, don't blame him for being ruthless!" Saying that, Zhou Chuan smiled bitterly, "However, sir, Bian Ancheng is just a mortal city, in this hurry, how can you gather ten treasures that satisfy the cultivators, that thief is clearly just a pretext!" β
"If you take out the treasure, you can earn it, but if you can't take it out, you will wash Bian Ancheng in blood, and then loot Bian Ancheng, but you still earn it, this guy is really a good calculation!"
Saying that, Lin Zheng was unhappy for a while, this kind of insidious and despicable villain's behavior was really disgusting, Lin Zheng even suspected that the guy who came over to stir up trouble was sent by this person, if a worthless disciple could be exchanged for the wealth of a city, how cost-effective!? That guy must have thought so!
"Sir!" Zhou Chuan suddenly kowtowed to Lin Zheng again, "Zhou Chuan is really desperate, now Bian Ancheng has been blocked by thieves, and the people in the city don't even have a chance to escape, and when the thief comes again, I'm afraid that this Bian Ancheng will not leave chickens and dogs, and blood will flow like a river!" β
Huh? Still playing blockade? The formation that can lock down the entire city really doesn't look easy! Such an opponent, with Lin Zheng's current strength, if they meet head-on, I am afraid that the odds of winning are not very high! However, the disaster of slaughtering the city is just around the corner, and if Lin Zheng just ignores it, he can't get around the hurdle in his heart!
Hmmββ! Can you try to call Xiao Wu over? However, Xiao Wu's words don't know if she will be affected by the Mandate of Heaven after she comes. Thinking about it, Lin Zheng was suddenly stunned, yes, between him and Yang Qi, there is still a "bond between two people"! What were you struggling with before? Wouldn't it be okay to just let Yang Qi pull him over?!
When he came back to his senses, Lin Zheng felt a little more annoyed in his eyes, but now even if he remembered it, he couldn't let Yang Qi pull him over, and if he left Bian Ancheng alone, he couldn't say anything!
At this time, wisps of fresh breeze converged from all around the alley, and then Xun's voice sounded in Lin Zheng's ears: "The investigation is clear!" β
"How? What kind of thing? β
"It's not a clever thing, at best, it can only block the ordinary three turns, and if you have a little divine power, you can break through directly!"
Xun's words made Lin Zheng's brows stretch, it turned out to be such a thing that couldn't be put on the table, and it seemed that that guy was not a capable person!
"But Yiping, this formation is not just used to blockade Bian Ancheng!"
"How?"
"This thing is a bit like the Netherworld Soul Refining Array, but the grade is much lower! And then this Netherworld Soul Refining Array is used to collect and refine souls, if there is no mistake, that guy should be planning to refine the souls of all the people in the entire Bian An City, and use it to refine some evil things! β
"Well, it looks like that guy really doesn't have anything to fear!" After hearing this, Lin Zheng calmed down a lot, and cultivators with a little insight knew that the resentment of sentient beings was the most terrible thing, as long as it was contaminated a little, it would have to be painstakingly removed! And refining things with the souls of all living beings is a typical example of the brain being caught by the crack in the door, if that kind of thing is brought with you, it won't take long and it will definitely die! And that guy actually came up with this kind of bad move, which shows that the facts are limited!
"Sir!" Seeing that Lin Zheng didn't respond for a long time, Zhou Chuan kowtowed again, "Knock! With a bang, Lin Zheng himself felt a pain in his head, "Please save me Bian Ancheng!" β
Seeing that the crowd on both sides had a posture of kowtowing, Lin Zheng hurriedly said, "Okay, okay!" Wouldn't it be okay if I promised to help? Get up, give me up! β
Hearing Lin Zheng's words, the people on both sides immediately showed a look of surprise, and Zhou Chuan also raised his head in surprise, but the blood on his forehead was flowing everywhere, and he looked a little scary.
"Thank you, sir! Thank you, sir, for your great kindness! β
"Don't thank you, stand up for me, I'm most annoyed that others are kneeling in front of me!"
Hearing this, Zhou Chuan hurriedly got up from the ground, seeing that his face was embarrassed, Lin Zheng shook his head helplessly, reached out and took out a few nectar pills and crushed them into powder, and said while smearing Zhou Chuan: "The man has gold under his knees, don't kneel down for others at every turn, this will make people look down on him, if others have the heart to help, they will naturally help, without that heart, it is useless for you to kneel your knees!" After speaking, Lin Zheng took a handkerchief from Fit's hand and wiped it on Zhou Chuan's head, and suddenly bursts of exclamations sounded all around, it was incredible, the city lord's wound had completely disappeared, and sure enough, this gentleman was a great immortal!
Although he couldn't see the change in the wound, Zhou Chuan could feel the disappearance of the wound, and thanked him excitedly: "Thank you, sir!" β
"Thank you?!" Lin Zheng stared at Zhou Chuan angrily, "If you have the kung fu to say that these are useless, it is better to tell me some useful information, I am not perfunctory to you, the time we can stay here is really not long!" β
Seeing that Zhou Chuan's expression became nervous, Lin Zheng's expression eased, and then he said, "Did that guy say how to contact him?" β
"Yes, sir!" As he spoke, Zhou Chuan hurriedly took out a jade talisman and handed it to Lin Zheng as he said, "This is what the thief sent with the letter, saying that as long as the jade talisman is broken, he will come from time to time!" It's just that if he can't see the treasure after coming, he ......"
Lin Zheng pinched the jade talisman, and couldn't help but show a slight mocking smile on his face, he was really relieved, that guy! Leaving this kind of thing so arrogantly, aren't you afraid that Bian Ancheng will set some traps waiting for him? Hawkers! However, judging from the information that Lin Zheng has learned so far, that guy is only so arrogant that he doesn't take a mortal city like Bian Ancheng in his eyes!
"Your Excellency!" Fett whispered, "Although the enemy is insignificant, but with our current strength, I'm afraid there are still some risks, why don't Fett summon the demons of hell to help in the battle, what do you think?" β
Lin Zheng smiled when he heard this, "Fett, don't forget, we are currently under the rules of the Mandate of Heaven, and we must go through various experiences in order to continuously improve our strength, including the situation we are encountering now!" Finding a helper is a last resort, at least for now, we don't need it! β
Hearing this, Fit showed a look of understanding, bowed slightly and said, "It's Fit who neglected your lord!" β
"So now......" Lin Zheng stared at the jade talisman, his eyes showing a bit of sinisterness, "Zhou Chuan, take us to your mansion!" We've got to get the baby ready for that guy! Ten pieces, it takes a lot of work! β
Zhou Chuan didn't notice Lin Zheng's expression, and his expression was stunned when he heard the words, Mr. is preparing to use treasures to send that thief away?! After coming back to his senses, Zhou Chuan hurriedly said, "Okay sir, welcome to the Humble House!" "Hey! Although it is impossible to completely solve the threat of the thief, if you can give the thief treasure, it should delay some time anyway, and then find a way to ask for help from the outside world!
Noticing the disappointed and somewhat happy looks of the people around him, Lin Zheng laughed meaningfully, which is not bad! "Fett, let's go!"
"Yes! My lord! β
Under the leadership of Zhou Chuan, it didn't take long for Lin Zheng and them to come to the city lord's mansion in Bian An City. This city lord's mansion is a manor that the Zhou family has operated for several generations, just a gate, it is full of strong historical charm, this kind of precipitation is not comparable to any nouveau riche!
Lin Zheng looked at the gate of this antique manor, admiring and regretting it, seeing this, Zhou Chuan, who accompanied him, couldn't help but say: "Mr. is a fairy figure, but such vulgar things as a cold house make you laugh!" β
"Nope! You're in a nice place, it's just a pity! β
"Sir, praise falsely!" Zhou Chuan was humble at first, and then asked suspiciously: "Sir, but I don't know where the pity is?" β
"Wouldn't it be a pity if the wait was broken!" With that, Lin Zheng walked over to the gate, where Zhou Chuan's guards had already let people open the gate and were welcoming Lin Zheng and them.
After entering the city lord's mansion, Lin Zheng is more and more admired, this week's family will also live, all kinds of horticultural vegetation elegantly dotted the front garden, as far as the eye can see, the not very towering attic presents a calm charm, pavilions, small bridges and flowing water, in this manor into an amazing painting!
"It's a pity! It's a pity! Lin Zheng sighed again and again. Although Lin Zheng somewhat looked down on the strength of the thief, but his current strength was also quite limited, in order to ensure that the target was solved, the necessary traps still had to be prepared, and in this Bian An City, the place that could make that guy put his vigilance to the lowest could only be Zhou Chuan's manor, and when he thought that this picturesque and beautiful manor might be destroyed in the battle, Lin Zheng felt a sigh of regret!
Zhou Chuan obviously misunderstood what Lin Zheng meant, and after hearing Lin Zheng's words, he said respectfully: "If Mr. likes this place, I will give it to Mr. afterwards!" β
Lin Zheng was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then laughed out loud, turned his head, looked at Zhou Chuan who was smiling, and then shook his head and smiled: "Zhou Chuan, when you encounter this situation in the future, don't guess casually, if you change to an arrogant guy, what you said just now, people will just brush their sleeves and leave!" "There are definitely a lot of such guys, especially young cultivators, who like to pretend to be high-ranking people and listen to other people's flattery, and Zhou Chuan's unintentional speculation, for those guys, is a bit like sending Hanako, that kind of guy definitely can't stand this kind of insult.
When Zhou Chuan was a little dazed, Lin Zheng smiled and said, "Let's go down and prepare!" Don't let anyone get near here during this time, I need to set up a trap and wait for that guy to come! β
Hearing this, Zhou Chuan finally understood what Lin Zheng meant, and his face turned pale at the moment, and he arched his hand at Lin Zheng in a sneering manner, "The student is stupid, let Mr. see it laugh!" β
"Understand, let's go, we don't have much time!"
"Yes! Mr! After nodding heavily, Zhou Chuan immediately walked away in good spirits, it turned out that Mr. was going to prepare a trap to capture the thief, and now he can finally feel completely at ease! Well, you must do what the husband tells you to do as soon as possible!
"This Zhou Chuan is really a naΓ―ve city lord!" Xun stared at the back of Zhou Chuan leaving and said, "He didn't think about it, if we can't beat that guy, what will become of this Bian Ancheng?" β
"This is the so-called rush to the doctor!" Lin Zheng said with a smile, "The situation in Bian Ancheng is already very bad now, and that guy's blockade has made everyone in the city call the heavens and the earth unspiritual!" In this desperate situation, two immortal-like characters suddenly ran out, no matter whether these two immortals had real skills or not, they would be regarded as a lifesaver by him, after all, he had no way out now! β
"But my lord, we're going to win, aren't we?"
"Of course!" Lin Zheng said to Fett with a confident face, it's just a deflated three cultivators, if you can't even solve this kind of goods, Lin Zheng just buy a piece of tofu and kill it!
The thief in Zhou Chuan's mouth is called Qingpi, and the reason why it is called this name is because there is a large birthmark on the right side of this guy's face, so he has the nickname Qingpi since he was a child. Qingpi is insidious and cunning, he was originally a thief, but he encountered a hard idea during a robbery, and the other party turned out to be a cultivator!
As a result, there was no accident, a group of brothers all killed each other, and Qingpi relied on his whiskers to pat the horse, begging for mercy, thus narrowly escaping and acting as a handyman beside the cultivator, and his skills were learned from the cultivator! Well, I didn't worship that cultivator as a teacher, but after plotting against that cultivator, I got it myself from the cultivator's relics, but I'm afraid that the cultivator will not be blind to death!
Thinking of the treasure that could be refined soon, Qingpi's face was a little more excited, and the cultivator who was killed by himself still said that this is a forbidden technique, and it is absolutely unacceptable, it is just nonsense! This is a world where the law of the jungle eats the strong, as long as you can master more powerful power, what about forbidden arts?!
Suddenly, Qingpi's brows furrowed, and he sensed that the jade talisman he sent out had been shattered! Could it be that Bian Ancheng really found ten treasures?! Thinking of this, Qingpi laughed disdainfully, a group of mortal ants, what kind of things they could find, probably like that! The jar is broken, and I'm going to take ten random things to fool the Dao Master, or I'll accidentally break it! However, no matter what kind of person he is, today's Bian Ancheng, he is going to decide!
After revealing a grim smile, Qingpi got up and left from the cave where he was cultivating, saying that his cave was not far from Bian Ancheng, otherwise, he wouldn't be able to rush to Bian Ancheng in time and fly? He doesn't have that skill yet! It's just that I put two magic talismans on my legs, and I run fast, that's all!
After a short time, Qingpi came to the outside of Bian An City, and after checking the formation that he had worked so hard to arrange, Qingpi showed a confident smile, very good, the big array has not been damaged in any way, which means that there will be no huge changes in Bian An City, reinforcements or something, let alone think about it! Immediately, he jumped onto the towering city wall and quietly infiltrated Bian An City.
After entering Bian Ancheng, Qingpi turned out of a laneway, and walked swaggering down the street, none of the worried people on the street knew that this guy was the thief who threatened Bian Ancheng! Looking at the sad appearance of the people, Qingpi couldn't help but feel a little more happy in his heart, this is the feeling of being in charge of life and death! It's a wonderful feeling!
Be careful, though! When the bandit's years of experience told Qingpi that there was nothing wrong with being careful, in case the city lord laid any trap for himself, although he was definitely not afraid, but as a cultivator, if he fell into the trap of mortals, it would be too embarrassing!
Listening carefully to the conversation of the people, after a while, a look of surprise appeared on the face of the green skin, there is a high-ranking person appearing? Or two? Qingpi was shocked when he heard it, if someone really broke into this Bian An City and he didn't know it, it would be terrible, it would be terrible, or two people! But soon Qingpi heard that the two masters were going to provide Zhou Chuan with ten treasures to meet his requirements. As soon as he inquired, Qingpi was happy, it turned out that the so-called master was just a young man and his maid, what ability a young man could have, I am afraid that he would not be able to escape the blockade of his own big array, so he would choose to compromise.
But, baby?!
Qingpi's eyes lit up, it was naturally impossible for a small place like Bian Ancheng to have anything decent, but if those two so-called "masters" were also cultivators, maybe they really had some treasures on them! Thinking of this, Qingpi's face showed a greedy color, this piece of fat to his mouth, he was sure to eat it!!
