Chapter 702: The Business of the Oil-Free Monk
When I came to the shop of the oil-free monk, there was no one here today, there was some chaos in the house, and the charcoal fire was burning too much in the corner.
"'Half past eight' is not here, it's really uncomfortable."
The oil-free monk sat on the chair, and Chu Ming noticed that his right hand was shaking a little. Seeing that Chu Ming noticed it, the oil-free monk did not hide it, he pulled the brazier, put his right hand on the charcoal fire and roasted it, and after a while, a few drops of gray blood dripped into the charcoal fire, and after the pop sound, the air was filled with a fishy smell.
"It's a small thing, Pi Shifa will lie in bed for at least three months." The oil-free monk said nonchalantly.
"Shelter the Falsis? Deacon Pisfa? Chu Ming heard Bai Yehua say this, but he didn't know the details of the road.
"Yes, looking for you." The oil-free monk glanced at Chu Ming and waved his hand: "This is not for you, this is my territory, even if someone burns down the temple, it is up to me to escape to me." ”
The oil-free monk showed his domineering side, and he didn't want to use it to blackmail Chu Ming.
"I still want to thank you." Chu Ming sat opposite the oil-free monk.
"We're not at the point of being affectionate yet." The oil-free monk shook his head: "According to the rules of the Dark World, responsibility is responsibility, and trading is transaction. If you feel that you are losing this deal, just give up, you and I will not owe each other. ”
"Tell me about the deal."
"Trading is business, if Bai Yehua abides by the rules, you also have a share in this business."
"Oh! You mean business? Chu Ming remembered what Bai Yehua said, he didn't care at the time, but now it seems that this business is really not small.
"Yes, you also know the need for resources in the Templar Church. Therefore, we need financial support more than others. I'm talking about the business between the churches. ”
While the oil-free monk was roasting the fire, he introduced this business to Chu Ming.
The Lava Sanctuary is not alone, and even if they don't belong to any power, their strength will make some people cling to them. Therefore, the lava sanctuary is a signboard, they shelter the dependents, and the dependents also collect wealth for them, supporting their consumption and growth.
However, there is a very special business model among the lava templars. This is "barter" and "killing flowers". "Trade" is simple. It is bartering, exchanging something with each other that will not circulate in the market. This way is very peaceful, and the exchange is based on only needs and vision.
And "killing flowers" is different, this is a very violent way. Approximate gambling.
"You know that there is still a kind of power in this world. They are the Star Thieves. The oil-free monk said unhurriedly:
"Don't underestimate them. There are powerful characters among them, although they have been surrounded and suppressed every year, but they have never been extinct. They sometimes come across hot booty. These things are not easy to shoot, so they can only 'kill flowers'. According to the unspoken rules of the lava sanctuary, as long as it is something obtained by 'killing flowers', it is considered whitewashed. Even if it is the original owner, it can only be redeemed in the normal way. ”
"Shrewd."
Chu Ming praised. Among these star thieves are high-ranking people, who seem to have given up the big benefits they have gotten in hand, but they have gained more. Because although "killing flowers" is an unspoken rule, it is also a rule. Being able to steer the rules – even if it's worth the bigger cost.
"Yes, it's smart." The oil-free monk also nodded: "Therefore, 'killing flowers' is a very fair game, and those star thieves will maintain this rule at any cost." If someone dares to break the rules, all the star thieves will attack them in groups, even those powerful forces will not be able to bear such consequences. ”
"But this is a lava sanctuary game, what does it have to do with me?" Chu Ming asked rhetorically.
"Hehe-" The Oilless Monk smiled, "Do you think the Lava Sanctuary is that easy to kill?" It's like Pissa, I can seriously injure him countless times, but I can't kill him once. Therefore, the lava sanctuary in 'Killing Flowers' generally does not take action, and it is all his subordinates or disciples who participate. ”
"Oh." Chu Ming nodded, and through Mr. Quecro's guidance, he also knew this. The Lava Sanctuary shares strength and life with its own mech, which is equivalent to two lives, and it is indeed difficult to kill.
"I don't doubt your strength, I won't be ugly about the person who can be valued by Ke Kro, let's talk about the details of the business-" The oil-free monk pushed the brazier away, and he looked at Chu Ming.
"I don't understand." Chu Ming shook his head.
"You'll understand, I'll just say that my suggestion, the bonus of 'Killing Flowers', is yours, in addition, I can also give White Night Flower a greater authorization, also, the trouble from the dark world, I'll solve it for you, and the temple, as long as you are in my territory, I'm responsible for your safety."
The oil-free monk said very casually, but Chu Ming, who didn't care about it, was shocked, this condition was too rich. He hesitated for a moment before asking:
"Did I hear me right? That's it? So, what about you? What's in it for you? ”
Chu Ming didn't expect his question to provoke the oil-free monk Ha Lu Ha Da to laugh, and after laughing, he looked at Chu Ming playfully and said:
"You were so smart just now, why are you stupid now? Those robbers who kill people and set fires can give up the benefits they have, but why can't I? ”
"Oh! Rules. Chu Ming suddenly understood, and patted his head in annoyance.
"Yes, that's the rule. Under the structure of the temple, it is difficult for independent rules to survive, so 'killing flowers' is the focus of the struggle between all parties. I won't hide it from you, I'm not alone, I'm just one of some forces, you are the one I chose, and everyone else has it. If you can win a few 'kills', I will earn far more than I can give you. Of course, if you can win more, you have the right to make additional conditions. Plus-"
The oil-free monk looked at Chu Ming's expression and said without hurry:
"You don't have to promise me right away, you can make a decision after you've seen 'Killing Flowers' once. Those 'bonuses' are really tempting, even if I look at them, I will be greedy. ”
"Okay, I'll take a look first." Chu Ming nodded, he was just curious now, anyway, it was okay to take a look.
"That's it, I'll let you know when the time comes." The oil-free monk stood up: "Pi Shifa has to lie on the bed for a while, and he won't trouble you for the time being." Bartha's there wouldn't have reacted so quickly. If you're visiting friends and family, it's best to do it during this time. As long as you're in thick Saturn. Nothing should happen. ”
"Ku Fei is also your man?" Chu Ming asked.
"Clever." The Oilless Monk nodded and walked towards the back room.
Seeing that the oil-free monk was gone, Chu Ming didn't delay much, he walked out of here, returned to his house, cleaned up a little, took the iron sheet, and walked out of the alley of the dark world.
He decided to go to Lily first, and thinking of Lily, Chu Ming couldn't help but feel a little worried. Lily went to the Stenman Temple alone. I don't know if she's doing well. Are there any dangers......
A priest is not a position, but a profession, and those who sincerely serve God with great power are called priests. Stenman's strength is not bad, so. She has her own temple. This temple is her worldly realm.
The Temple of Stenman is nestled in the Footfall Forest of Thick Saturn. The scenery is beautiful and the area is wide. Along the way, Chu Ming also saw a lot of camping tourists, who lived well with the wide variety of birds here. This forest is also filled with a peaceful and peaceful atmosphere.
Chu Ming was here for the first time, and when he saw the high bell tower of the temple, he got out of the floating car and walked there with the iron sheet. Without going into variety, a complex of buildings built on the mountain is presented in front of you.
At the top of the hillside is a long staircase, which is more than ten meters wide and thousands of steps, showing a magnificent momentum. There is no customary arch at the beginning of the steps, and two pillars carved with dragons and phoenixes replace the role of the mountain gate.
To be honest, Chu Ming was a little nervous, and his palms were sweaty. He had envisioned many scenarios, most of which were bad. The worst result is that he can't see Lily at all, the priests are all powerful people, and Chu Ming doesn't have the strength to hit the mountain gate.
As he got closer, there was a young man standing next to the pillar, who was supposed to be the disciple in charge of guarding the mountain gate in the temple.
"Stop! Who? When the young man saw Chu Ming, he shouted loudly, staring at him vigilantly.
"I'm looking for someone." Chu Ming raised his hand, indicating that he had no weapon, and at the same time he was nervously on guard. There were so many things that happened along the way, and his nerves were tense.
"Looking for whom?" The young man did not let his guard down, and asked while looking at Chu Ming.
"Lily."
"Which Lily?"
"It's called Lily. Is there a lot of Lily here? Chu Ming thought he had a duplicate name.
"Lily?" The boy read the word again, and then suddenly changed color: "Lily! You mean Sister Lily. ”
"yes, what's wrong?" Chu Ming was even more nervous, he clenched his fists, ready to make a move at any time. He pinned his hopes on the surprise that if he subdued the boy and rushed up the mountain, there was still a small chance of rescuing Lily.
"Stand still, don't move!" The boy was also nervous, he took a half step back and asked carefully, "What's your name?" ”
"Chu Ming." Chu Ming replied.
"Chu Ming, yes, yes, yes, it's Chu Ming. The robot next to you is called Ironskin, right? The boy's expression was a little strange.
"Yes, Ironskin." Chu Ming nodded again.
It was at this time that a sudden change occurred -
"Brother-in-law is here!"
The temple disciple guarding the gate screamed, turned around and ran back. His action almost made Chu Ming move immediately, but fortunately, Chu Ming's control was good and he held it down. He stared at the young man's back, hesitated for a moment, and decided to wait and see. I lost the suddenness of my shot, and I had to improvise according to the situation.
For more than ten minutes, Chu Ming waited more and more anxiously, and just when he couldn't control his emotions, he ran down the long steps alone.
It was a woman who was running in such a hurry that several times her long skirt tripped her feet and almost fell.
"Are you Chu Ming?" As soon as she ran away from Chu Ming, the woman asked impatiently, she ran so fast that a layer of sweat appeared on her forehead.
"Yes." Chu Ming looked at this woman and didn't know her.
"You're Lily's man?" The woman asked eagerly again.
"Yes?" Chu Ming felt more and more uneasy.
"That's good." The woman breathed a long sigh of relief, and finally asked again with great anxiety: "Are you really Chu Ming?" Is it really Lily's man? ”。
"Yes, I am." Chu Ming nodded cautiously, and then asked worriedly, "Is something wrong with Lily?" ”
"No, no, no." The woman waved her hand, her breathing slowly evened out, and her face was no longer nervous.
"Don't worry, Lily is fine, I'm her senior sister Angelinda."
"Hello Angelinda, where's Lily?"
Perhaps seeing the suspicion and nervousness in Chu Ming's eyes, Angelinda smiled, she did not answer immediately, but first carefully straightened out the hem of the long skirt, and her demeanor changed to that of a stern lady.
"Don't worry, Lily is fine, very nice. She is meditating in the Ramadan temple right now, and if you're not in a hurry, you'll be able to see her in a little while. Are you in a hurry? ”
"Well, I'm not in a hurry." Chu Ming scratched his head, pondered his language, and asked slightly embarrassedly: "I just want to know what happened to the previous gatekeeper disciple, and you-"
"Is it strange?"
"A little."
"It's okay, we still have time, I'll tell you what's going on." Angelinda turned sideways and led Chu Ming into the Stenman Temple, she walked beside Chu Ming, climbing the stairs all the way, answering the doubts in Chu Ming's heart as she went.
"I'm Lily is a senior sister, I don't know what Lu Dao is, from the first time I saw Lily, I fell in love with her, she is like that little sister in my family."
"Xie Lu Xie, this is Lily's luck." Chu Ming sincerely thanked him, with Angelinda's care, Lili, a newcomer, would definitely have a lot less trouble.
"No, it's not Lily's luck, it's mine." Angelinda smiled, a wry smile: "I know, you definitely don't believe my words, just like everyone thinks that the eldest brother Atson's favor for Lily is her luck." But, we were all wrong.
In the beginning, I did take good care of Lily. She is very good, which makes the teacher look at her differently, but it also makes the other brothers resentful. What's even more troublesome is the eldest brother Atson's infatuation with Lily, which makes Lily have two enemies directly, one is Sara Ida and the other is Larus. The two of them have admired the elder brother for a long time, and they have fought with each other many times, but Lily's appearance has made them abandon their old suspicions, and unanimously regard Lily as a thorn in the flesh.
And then a lot happened. Lily is isolated, and Saraida and Bilus have their own suitors, and they have many stumbling blocks for Lily at the behest of Sarah Ida and Billus. At one point, Lily didn't dare to go out of her room. At that time, she often stayed with me to avoid unwarranted plots. ”
"Thank you." Chu Ming thanked him again, he could think of the situation Lily was facing, it was indeed a difficult trouble to deal with. And because of the existence of the senior brother, it is difficult to compromise on this matter.
"I said, no thanks." Angelinda smiled, "But if it were just about it, I could accept your thanks." It was a very difficult time for Lily at that time, even more unbearable than I had described. The elder brother's infatuation with her not only did not ward her off trouble, but only increased Lily's hardship. I think you should know that Lily will not accept the elder brother, she is your woman. ”
"Big brother, Atson." Chu Ming had a trace of anger in his heart, when he encountered this kind of thing, no man would be calm.
"Don't worry, this is just the beginning." Angelinda hurriedly said, as if she was worried that Chu Ming would be angry because of this.
"This is only the first half of the matter, if your anger affects Lily, all the brothers and sisters will not spare me."
Angelinda continued, her voice becoming a little strange, as if she was recalling something she didn't want to recall.
"Until one day, Lily said, 'This game, it's a bit boring'. (To be continued......)
