Volume 3 Water City Chapter 288 Letter Crow
"Blind...... Blind! Lao Tzu has worked hard for the Shenji Battalion for so many years, but in the end it is actually a dream, an empty one! Alas, there are infinite Danqing hands in the world, and a sad heart cannot be drawn...... "Yan Rat seemed to be stunned, closed his eyes and sighed for a long time, his face was full of sadness.
Zhou Nian raised his eyebrows and looked at him, looking at the other party's uncomfortable appearance of "dying before his ambition is paid, unwilling to be a person in the song", if he adds a pot of wine to the fan, he looks like a great poet who is happy and unhappy in the twilight of his old age.
"Hey, aren't you blind yet?
Yan Rat pursed his lips and shook his head with a bitter expression, "Alas, sooner or later, the time is long or short, and I have no power to return to the sky!"
"Who said you can't go back to the sky?" Zhou Nian asked rhetorically, scoffing.
"Huh?" Yan Rat was stunned for a moment, and a gleam suddenly burst out of his eyes when he was young, "Master, you...... Do you have a solution?"
Zhou Nian clasped his hands to his chest and spoke lightly, "Since I can find out the symptoms on your body, I naturally have a way." β
"Hiss......"
There is a way, Yan Rat suddenly gasped, and the little mouse slipped out of the ground like a candlestick, jumped up more than three meters high, and did not hide or tuck it, stepping on the ground to show his whole body, staring at Zhou Nian, "What...... What's the solution?"
"Hehe, do you want to cure?" Zhou Nian looked mysterious, and his heart was happy.
"Cure it! Of course you want to cure it, the kind that wants to break your head!" Yan Rat drank urgently, a trace of sparks rubbed out of the ashes, and hope was rekindled in despair.
His expression changed slightly, and Zhou Nian said with a little solemnity, "It's okay, but I have the conditions." β
"Master, you say. "Yan Rat himself is also very smart and knows that things will not be so simple, so he is prepared in advance.
Zhou Nian blinked, his words were not ambiguous, and he went straight to the point, "I'll help you treat your eyes, on the other hand, you have to help me investigate Lord Blood Cicada!"
The old topic, Zhou Nian made it clear that he hadn't given up yet.
"This ......"
When Yan Rat heard this, his heart suddenly chuckled, in fact, he had roughly guessed the content of the conditions from just now, but he was secretly lucky in his heart and wanted to confirm it.
To treat the eyes and blood cicadas, the Yan Rat holds his right hand with his left hand, so he has to weigh which is more important.
Seeing that the other party hesitated, Zhou Nian simply struck while the iron was hot, and added, "What? Could it be that you are still afraid? A pair of good eyes for some information, you will not suffer a loss in this deal, before the condition has completely deteriorated, there is still time for treatment, in case you are really blind, even if Da Luo Jinxian descends to earth, I am afraid that there will be no way to return to heaven." β
Zhou Nian was even frightened, but what he said was the truth.
Hearing this, Yan Rat really panicked in his heart, what do people live all their lives for? Isn't it desperate to make money and then go out to see the outside world? If the eyes are blind, then still look at chicken feathers?
Not only can't he see the beautiful scenery, I'm afraid he will even have to lose his job in the Shenji Battalion in the future, after all, he is a powerful intelligence agency, and he won't hire a blind man to do things if he is confused, which not only affects his face, but also does things unfavorably, and he is not the son of the head of the Shenji Battalion, why should people raise a person who eats idle food?
"Gollum ......"
Swallowing his saliva hard, Yan Rat gritted his teeth in pain, as if he was about to bite someone, and finally made a difficult decision, "Okay, okay! I took this business, but I can take it, I have to say the ugly words in my head, I can only do my best to know the information about Lord Blood Cicada, no matter how much information I obtain, master, don't blame me, after all, I am limited alone, and I can't ask my fellow disciples for help, I don't want a third person to know about this matter except for you and me!"
As soon as he heard the other party's agreement, Zhou Nian was immediately happy, patted his chest, and said with a package ticket, "Don't worry, since I spent Gan Zimo and others, I just don't want too many people to know this secret, you take this business, I naturally won't treat you badly, you try to get the information of Lord Blood Cicada, on the premise of saving your life, no matter how much you can get, I won't blame you." β
"Oh! In that case, then I thank the master for your understanding!" Yan Rat didn't expect the other party to be so reasonable, so he hurriedly hugged his fists and thanked him.
Zhou Nian waved his hand, then took out a maple leaf from his arms and handed it over, laughing softly, "Hehe, Mr. Yan is polite, I, Zhou Nian, am not the kind of person who does not pull out a dime, you do things for me, I will definitely not treat you badly, in addition to helping you treat your illness, this little meaning is even if it is my supplement to you, I hope Mr. Yan is not too little, please smile." β
Yan Rat scanned it carefully when he heard this, it didn't matter if he didn't look at it, when he saw it, he was suddenly startled.
That's 1 million babes!
It's really generous, Yan Rat now understands that Gan Zimo was indeed right when he scolded himself before, he is really eye-catching, and the dog's eyes look down on people!
"Oh, this ...... How can this be done? The master has already been considered a great favor to me for helping me to cure my eyes, and if I take your money again, this will ...... No, absolutely not, I can't ask for this money. β
"Hehe, take it, Mr. Yan, you deserve it. The money I think about has always been well spent, for the people I admire, I naturally regard money as dung, and for the people I don't admire, he can't get anything from me. β
"This ......"
"Oh, isn't Mr. Yan unwilling to appreciate the light?"
"Don't dare, absolutely not. Yan Rat no longer insisted, quickly took the money, and said solemnly, "Master, it is a pleasure to do business with you, you can rest assured, this time I will definitely do a beautiful job and will not let you down." β
"Hehe, I'll see. Zhou Nian chuckled.
With a slight movement of his palm, Yan Rat suddenly took out a small black jade piece from his arms, which was exactly the same as the one before Gan Zimo, and handed it to Zhou Nian, "Master, please put this away." β
"What is this?" Zhou Nian took it over and examined it carefully, although he knew what it did, but he didn't know its name.
Yan Rat explained seriously, " Don't hide the master, this gadget is called the letter crow, is a very convenient communication tool, you don't see it carved roughly, its appearance is not good, but the role is great, it currently has two functions, one is to contact information, mostly used for each other when they are in a different place, to transmit information to each other, but the disadvantage is that the communication time is short, the information transmitted can only be concise, long story short; as for its second function, is to summon, when using the master only need to pour a small amount of aura on it, wait for the crow inside to fly out and disappear, then another piece of letter crow in my hand can clearly detect the location of the master, convenient to meet as soon as possibleγ β
"Oh, I see, I can't imagine that your Shenji Battalion still has such a convenient communication tool, admire, really admire. Zhou Nian understood, pinched the letter and looked at it with interest, and immediately put it into his arms.
Yan Rat chuckled, "Hehe, the master has praised it falsely, although the crow is good, it has certain drawbacks. β
"Disadvantages, what disadvantages?" Zhou Nian was curious.
Yan Rat said slowly, "Master, you think, we have a large number of disciples in the Divine Machine Camp, almost everyone has a certain number of letter crows in their hands, if someone summons them, the letter crows in the hands of all the disciples will resonate, who will receive them when the time comes, and who will be the guests, isn't it a mess? So, although this letter crow is good, it has certain limitations." β
"What restrictions?"
"Only crows with the same attributes can summon each other. β
"Oh?" frowning, Zhou Nian asked tentatively, "You mean, if I activate the summoning, then only you can see my location, but the other disciples in the Divine Machine Camp can't see it?"
"Yes, that's what it means. β
Zhou Nian was suddenly a little puzzled, "This ...... Isn't that great? This can not only prevent the disciples of the Shenji Camp from having conflicts in order to compete for customers, but also protect the personal privacy of the guests from being leaked, how do you say that this is a disadvantage?"
Yan Rat shook his head and said, "Master, although the information transmission from top to bottom is thorough, if the person above suddenly disappears, then all the letter crows in his possession will also disappear with him." β
"What do you mean?"
"Hmm......" After hesitating for a moment, Yan Rat said seriously, "Let me give you a simple example, the letter crow in the master's hand is connected to me, if I die, then the letter crow in your hand is useless." β
"Oh, I see, the original owner of this crow must live, or the news will be completely broken. β
"Master Transparent!"
"Well, I know, I'll take care of it, and you'll have to be extra careful when investigating the Blood Cicada. β
"Yes. Yan Rat clenched his fists again, jumped into the ground after speaking, and got into the soil again, "I will definitely do what the master has told me as soon as possible, without further ado, I will retire first." β
"There is labor. Zhou Nian returned the salute with his fists, watching Yan Rat's whole body sink into the earth, and a small hill on the ground left the room, thinking in his heart.
About five minutes later, Gan Zimo and Xue Hai, who had been waiting at the door, saw that Yan Rat had left, so they pushed the door and entered.
"Master, is this done?"
"That's it. Zhou Nian said lightly.
"Oh. Gan Zimo muttered in a low voice, hesitated for a few seconds, and couldn't help but say, "Master, the old man has something to ask for now." β
"Oh?" Zhou Nian looked up at him, seeing that the other party's face was a little anxious, and then said lightly, "Say, what's the matter?"
"Please...... Please come with me to the Sword Shrine. Gan Zimo clenched his fists, and his attitude was even more respectful.
Zhou Nian frowned, "Sword Shrine, isn't the Sword Shrine destroyed now? The real culprit has been investigated, why should I still do it?"
Zhou Nian mistakenly thought that Gan Zimo was still doubting himself, and he was naturally not angry when he spoke.
"It's not. Gan Zimo heard the coldness in the other party's words, and hurriedly waved his hand in fright, "Master, you misunderstood what I meant, I didn't mean to sprinkle salt on your wounds, but now that the real culprit has been investigated, there are still many doubts that have not yet been solved, for example, what kind of sharp blade was the sword mound destroyed, master, you have a lot of knowledge, and you are quite accomplished in refining weapons, as long as you go with me to check, there must be something new to discover." β
"Oh, I see. When Zhou Nian heard this, he was instantly relieved in his heart, and this old boy couldn't see the name of the destroyed sword mound, so he actually asked him to help.
As long as he doesn't doubt himself, Zhou Nian is willing to serve, "In that case, then Master Gan, let's go now?"
"Oh, master, please come soon!" As soon as he heard Zhou Nian agree, Gan Zimo was immediately happy, and hurriedly led the way.
