Volume 3 Attack on Western Vietnam Chapter 122 The Ignorant Are Fearless
When the two were talking, about thirty people came over together, and Chu Zheng glanced at it, most of them had seen it in Yilingfang City.
Most of these people are in the realm of refining blood and purifying the marrow, opening the pulse and condensing qi, and seven or eight people are half-step congenital, and the leader is a middle-aged person in the congenital stage.
The middle-aged man first hugged his fist at Chu Zheng, and then said with a reserved face: "Young Master Chu, I am here from Yilingfang City. On the same day, Gongzi said in Fang City that he hired a half-step congenital and realm by the heart of the monk ten spirit stones per month, and the congenital and foundation fifty spirit stones per month, I don't know if Chu Gongzi's words can be serious. ”
Chu Zheng nodded and said, "Naturally, but what I said at the beginning was that there was a limit of fifty people, and I didn't say that blood refining and marrow refining and opening the pulse and condensing qi can also participate." ”
Although refining blood and purifying the marrow and opening the pulse and condensing qi can still be regarded as monks, the gap between them and the half-step innate and realm is too big. The most important thing is that half-step innate and realm-born cultivators can leave their bodies with mana and can attack directly from a distance, but they can't open their pulses and condense qi and refine blood and purify their marrow. Chu Zheng made the floating boat attack on the Ten Thousand Swords Sect's ore vein in the trial scene, but at that time, it was only a half-step innate and realm attack by the Xinsheng monks, while the other monks could only stand in the floating boat and do nothing. Chu Zheng had already decided that the floating boat would be used as a last resort at the beginning of this battle, so these monks who opened the pulse and condensed qi and refined blood and purified the marrow were basically useless.
The middle-aged man seemed to have known that Chu Zheng would have such a statement, and said again: "Chu Gongzi also knows that there are not many half-step innate and realm by heart cultivators after all, and it is not easy for these vein opening and condensing qi and realm by heart cultivators to cultivate until now, and I also ask Chu Gongzi to open up the net." When the middle-aged man said this, the Pulse Opening and Condensing Qi Realm cultivators behind him looked at Chu Zheng expectantly.
Chu Zheng smiled, looked at the middle-aged monk with a smile and said, "You said that I will agree to your request now, will these monks behind you who open their veins and condense qi and refine their blood and marrow be grateful to you or me?"
"Of course, I am grateful to Master Chu. The middle-aged man bowed his hand, and his demeanor was very sincere.
Chu Zheng sneered, "I'm afraid not." Let me take out the spirit stone elixir, but I will receive your favor, do you think that if I can do such a stupid thing, when I go to the Xiyue tribe, will anyone dare to follow me?"
Chu Guanlan couldn't help but laugh. At first, the middle-aged man said this, and he was moved by some compassion, but now that Chu Zheng said this, he realized that what this middle-aged man wanted in his heart was probably to grow up under Chu Zheng, and finally pull up a group of people alone. In the early stage, he needed to use the appeal of the jade plate in Chu Zheng's hand to win people over. It's just that you, a small casual cultivator, dared to say this to Chu Zheng? Don't you know that Chu Zheng killed the three Zhuji in seconds this morning. What's more, this expedition to Xiyue is far from being as simple as it seems on the surface, Chu Zheng is still walking on thin ice with such combat effectiveness, and your heart is too big in the early stage of a loose cultivation.
The middle-aged man's expression was slightly stunned, and he didn't know how to answer for a while. Chu Zheng's words can be said to have completely sealed his rhetoric. If you really want to follow Chu Zheng, then Chu Zheng will definitely say that I am so stupid, obviously going to the people of the Xiyue tribe to send to death, why did you follow me?
"You said that if I now announce that I can collect blood refining and marrow refining and pulse opening and condensing qi, there will be a spirit stone and a pill every month, and there will be rewards for excellent combat performance. But the premise is that I won't accept you. What do you think the outcome will be?"
Facing Chu Zheng's direct gaze, the middle-aged man's face turned extremely pale. If Chu Zheng really did this, then he would end up with a bamboo basket for nothing. Not only will these people who have worked so hard to put together abandon him, but all his thoughts will be empty, and even the situation in front of him will not be maintained.
With the Great Zhou Gong Fa Xiyue group, the days of the casual cultivation of begging for food in the vicinity are becoming more and more difficult, and the war will officially start tomorrow, and the casual cultivation who is begging for a living here has to make a choice.
There are no more than three options. The first is to sit back and wait for the Great Zhou army and the family sect to break through the Xilancang Pass, and then they will flock in, grab it if they can, and leave after grabbing. But this path is clearly the practice of outlaws. At that time, they not only had to face the resistance of the Western Yue tribes, but also the oppression and extermination of all forces in the Great Zhou.
The second option is to defect to powerful forces, such as the Chumen, Jianyuanzong, and Ouyang families in the Lancang Pass, as well as the upcoming royal family. But if you take refuge in these forces, you will definitely be sent on a very dangerous mission, or even a mission that is almost dead.
There is only one third option, which is to take refuge in Chu Zheng. Chu Zheng's power is the weakest, but it is precisely because of his weakness that he can make his own power grow. And since he is weak, he will definitely pay attention to the casual cultivation that he has taken refuge in, relatively speaking, Chu Zheng is the safest here.
He came to seek refuge in Chu Zheng also based on this idea. But he didn't expect Chu Zheng's words to beat all his thoughts like falling flowers.
At this time, Chu Zheng took a sip of water and asked again: "You said that you have not been recruited by me yet, and now you will start to play so many tricks, how much more will you play if you are recruited? I will kill you with thunder at that time, or will I not recruit you now, which one should I choose?" Or will I kill you now?"
With a smack, the cold sweat on the middle-aged man's face came down. He didn't know what Chu Zheng thought, but he knew that it would be easy for Chu Zheng to kill himself.
"Alright. Put away your thoughts that you shouldn't have. The ignorant fearless speak of you. You immediately gather these people now, I want to be born from the heart in half a step, open the pulse and condense the qi and refine the blood and wash the marrow, as long as I am under the age of twenty-five, I will also accept it, according to what I just said, one spirit stone and one pill per person per month. ”
The middle-aged man looked at Chu Zheng in astonishment with his mouth open. He was still immersed in Chu Zheng's threat to him, and he couldn't understand why there was another big reversal, and he decided to let himself join the personnel.
Chu Guanlan bowed his head thoughtfully and tasted tea. He found that he had another layer of understanding of Chu Zheng.
Insightful!
The middle-aged man let Chu Zheng guess his mind with a word, and even made a few words to let him walk around the heavens and the earth. Just as Chu Zheng said just now, the ignorant are fearless, and now I am afraid that this middle-aged man is already afraid of Chu Zheng. Such a person will definitely not dare to slack off in a short period of time.
"Within my jurisdiction, I allow ambitious people to exist, because my ambition is greater, big enough to encompass the ambition of all of you!"
Chu Zheng lowered his eyelids and tasted tea silently, and his words made both the middle-aged man and Chu Guanlan shocked. Whether it is Chu Guanlan and the people who left Trumen at the same time to join Chu Zheng, or the middle-aged people in front of them, they are all ambitious. Such a person will not be reused by ordinary forces, and he will not even recruit, but Chu Zheng dares to say this, if he wants to be big-minded enough, or he doesn't know the height of the sky. But the two have instinctively chosen to believe in the former.
The middle-aged man honestly gathered the personnel, and Chu Zheng didn't even ask his name. It's also a trick of power.
At this time, dozens of people rushed from the other side of the city, and these people strode towards the pavilion, and the pedestrians on the road panicked and avoided.
Chu Zheng glanced at it, his eyes narrowed slightly, and then he continued to bow his head and taste tea. There are seventy or eighty of these people, nearly half of them are half-step congenital, seven or eight are born from the heart, and the rest are all innate and foundation building monks. And many of them have seen it in Yilingfang City. That's the main force to be recruited today.
"Third Prince Chu is unharmed!" Dozens of people stood outside the pavilion, two congenital and one middle-aged man walked into the pavilion together, and all three of them were mid-stage cultivators, not early stage. One of the red-faced strong men casually arched his hand and said, "Third Prince Chu is unharmed!"
Chu Zheng put down the teacup and looked at the other party. The red-faced middle-aged man sat directly at the stone table and said: "On that day, Yilingfang City, the third prince of Chu proposed to recruit us for casual cultivation, and clearly explained the price of ten spirit stones per month for half-step innate and realm by heart monks, fifty spirit stones per month for innate and foundation building, and one hundred spirit stones per month for innate and foundation building. ”
Chu Zheng nodded.
The middle-aged man continued: "We were really moved at that time, and we had already come here, which could be regarded as the invitation of the third prince of Chu. However, now that the situation has changed, we would like to talk about cooperation with the third prince of Chu. ”
Chu Zheng still didn't speak, still just nodded. Meaning you go on and say, I'm listening. But it felt like I was listening to my subordinates' advice.
The three people who entered the pavilion secretly caught fire, and the red-faced man smiled slightly mockingly, "The third prince of Chu should not be so careful, there is no need to put up these factions now." Who doesn't know that the third prince of Chu is no longer called the third prince of Chu, and Chu Zheng has broken away from Chumen. Do you say it's the third son of Chu?"
The middle-aged Zhuji with a Confucian demeanor smiled faintly, "That's it, does the third prince of Chu still want to put on a show if he doesn't speak all the time?"
Another innate monk said: "Clear-eyed people don't say dark words, Chu Gongzi has lost the support of Chu Men, and it is difficult for us to follow Chu Gongzi." So we're ...... today."
"Since you don't accept recruitment, don't delay everyone's time. Chu Zheng stood up with a calm expression.
"Young people, don't be impatient. The elegant middle-aged elders taught him earnestly, pressed down his hand and motioned for Chu Zheng to sit down, and said at the same time: "We are doing this for your good." ”
The red-faced man pursed his lips disdainfully, "It's not a secret, now the half-step innate realm cultivators who want to be recruited in Lancang City are all here." For the sake of Mr. Chu, Mr. Chu, you should listen to how we cooperate. After all, without us, it will be difficult for Gongzi Chu to move an inch, and he will do nothing if he has a jade plate. Why not work with us?"
"Oh, how to cooperate?" Chu Zheng looked at the other party for a long time.
The three of them glanced at each other, and the red-faced man said: "We borrow the role of the jade plate of Gongzi Chu, you can get one percent of the five products we snatched without difficulty, I don't know if Gongzi Chu is satisfied?"
Chu Zheng asked indifferently, "The tribe you occupy belongs to you?"
"Young Master Chu is not greedy enough, of course it belongs to us. ”
"Sorry, I'm not interested. ”
The three of them stood up, and the red-faced man sneered, "Master Chu, we have come all the way from Yiling Pass to this place, I'm afraid it's hard for you to say that you're not interested, right?"
With a bang, the golden cyan light flashed, and three human heads fell to the ground, and blood rose to the sky.
Chu reclaimed the Golden Dragon Blood Drinking Blade, sat down indifferently, and said, "What I'm saying is that I'm not interested in talking to the three of you. ”
He turned his head to look at the people outside the pavilion and said, "Come in and talk to me again!"
