Chapter 14: The Nine-Tailed Fox Paradox
Looking at the dozen or so beggars in front of him, Lin Sen was puzzled, and his heart itched terribly. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
There's nothing more difficult than getting a professional player to abandon a mission, especially when the mission can still bring great benefits, and it's even more impossible - Lin Sen, who was ruthless in his heart, got on the bar with this task, and for the next two days, he went to the beggar's shack in the morning, noon and evening, and delivered delicious food and wine at any price, and his generosity was so generous that he hadn't even enjoyed it himself.
"Anyway, I just got a thousand taels, this little money is nothing-I don't believe it, such an investment can't be exchanged for a system message?"
It's a pity that he just has to believe that this really can't be exchanged for system news: no matter how the beggars thank the white fox, the system will not respond!
This made Lin Sen a little unacceptable: what is the problem?
Until the head of the dozen or so beggars, a young beggar of twenty-seven or eighteen years old nicknamed 'Loach' stood up and gave him a slap in the face.
"Master Lin, you take care of us so much, you are a rare good person, we don't dare to take advantage of you, you still don't want to come in the future. He sighed and said with difficulty: "If you let us do things as food money, we are all willing, even if you spread your reputation everywhere in this Heyang City, then it is also appropriate, but let us do nothing, just say thank you to a brute, this is not okay - we have a hard life, but we can't bully a good person like you!"
He said this very suddenly, which made Lin Sen stunned for a while, but looking at his sincere expression, a trace of emotion surged in his heart, and he just wanted to say something, but he suddenly shouted in a flash of inspiration: "You guys don't actually thank the white fox, you are just fooling me, right?"
The loach said as a matter of course: "Of course, Master Lin, you have a kind heart, and you take care of our feelings, and put good deeds on the beasts, who can't see it? If anyone really believes this statement, it is a fool, we are just poor, not stupid!"
"Yes, you're not stupid, I'm stupid!"
Lin Sen muttered to himself, and finally understood what the problem was: he knew that the white fox had a great origin, and his ability was even more magical, and he could not be underestimated, but the innkeeper and these beggars were not! In their eyes, this was just a beast, even if they said thank you, how could they really take it seriously?
So for the white fox, it's really insincere not to mention this thanks, and even the target is not to go to it, how can it be received?
The reason for this is actually not difficult to think, but Lin Sen is a fan of the authorities, so he was confused for two or three days and did not find the key.
"It's going to be tough. Thinking about what was going on, he couldn't help frowning: "I want them to really thank the white fox, it's not something that can be done by talking!"
Lin Sen has a system to confirm the identity of the white fox's special NPC, and he knows many miracles of the Qingqiu nine-tailed fox from myths and legends, and then he can treat the white fox with an equal attitude, but other people don't know about it, if they want them to believe in the strangeness of the white fox, it is simply impossible!
"And the problem is not only that, even if you really find a way to show the miracle of the white fox, most of them will not be able to get thanks, but directly ask someone to slaughter it!"
In Lin Sen's opinion, the Qingqiu Nine-Tailed Fox is a strange beast, a rui beast, or a divine beast, but the people of the Tianyuan World will not see it this way, a magical fox that is even more magical than a human...... Isn't this the demon clan? In this world where the yin soul is hostile because it has some relationship with the demon clan's bloodline, the real demon clan appears in front of you, what will happen to it, do you still need to think about it?
So now it has become such a strange appearance: if you don't explain your identity ability, the nine-tailed fox will be ignored, and if you explain your identity ability, the nine-tailed fox will be killed...... Faced with this unsolvable paradox, Lin Sen was as big as a fight for a while.
"It's no wonder that gaining the gratitude and respect of the three people is regarded as an unblocking task, even figuring out what to do, this is too difficult!"
Unable to conceive, he could only temporarily dismiss the idea of completing the task quickly, and instead think about it in the long run.
"You're right, I'm confused. Lin Sen sighed and said to the loach: "It's my fault, it's actually disrespectful to you to do this." ”
If you can't tell the white fox thing, then don't say it, just let the other party think to explain.
The loach was terrified when he heard this: "Lin Ye doesn't dare to say this, you are a good person, and we are blessed, and you can't enjoy your kindness." ”
This was comforting, and Lin Sen immediately took out a silver tael from his arms and handed it to him: "This is my last help, if I am a friend, please accept it." I'll come back to you in the future if I need any help. ”
The loach pursed his lips and did not refuse the ingot, but led many beggars to say together: "Don't worry, Master Lin, if there is a dispatch in the future, you can arrange it, we are waiting for you here!"
Lin Sen waved his hand, said no more, and turned to leave. It wasn't until I walked out of this alley, turned around and looked in the direction of the shack, and couldn't help sighing: "**************, this is really reasonable." ”
The white fox in his arms rarely took the initiative to raise his head and lightly tapped it twice.
"Ha, it seems that you also agree with this sentence, good vision, it is the same as me, little guy, worthy of praise! Hey, don't squint, believe it or not, I won't let you eat? Anyway, you are in trouble now, you are really going to provoke me, and you will stew it for you right away!"
Laughing while walking, Lin Sen took another step with the white fox in his arms and left the alley completely.
......
The next day, Lin Sen took the white fox to visit Sun Ting, the prefect of Heyang. He wants to confirm the situation on the side of the Great Rimen, and if there is no problem, he will be ready to return to the sect, after all, it has been out for more than ten days, and it is time to go back, not to mention whether Nie Xiaoqian will worry about himself, that is, he is also worried about the sect.
The subordinates in Sun Ting's mansion are very discerning, or maybe someone specially ordered them, as soon as they saw Lin Sen, they took the initiative to invite them into the living room of the mansion, and invited Steward Sun to come and meet them. After the two of them were polite, someone came over to report that Mrs. Mo had invited Lin Sen to go and talk about it.
So Steward Sun led Lin Sen to the backyard room again and saw Little Molly's mother.
At this meeting, I saw that Mrs. Mo's face was ruddy, and her face was much more energetic, obviously her body had recovered most of it. Seeing Lin Sen come in, he immediately welcomed him warmly: "Sect Master Lin is here, oops, is this the white fox?"
In order to convince her that little Molly was doing well in Tongtian Sect, Lin Sen talked about a lot of things, and even introduced some with the white fox.
"That's right, this little guy is. Lin Sen saw that Mrs. Mo liked it very much, so he put the white fox on the table and let him look at it.
"Such a white coat color is really cute, no wonder Xiao Lier likes it. ”
Little Molly's love for small animals is obviously due to the factor of her mother, Mrs. Mo looked at the white fox very fondly at the moment, the light in her eyes flashed, and she took the initiative to reach out and gently stroke the white fox's back.
But the white fox is not easy to serve, and immediately flicked his tail as if to drive Mrs. Mo's palm open, and at the same time raised his head and glanced at him angrily, and his disgust was not concealed.
"Ah, what a proud little guy!" Mrs. Mo was surprised and delighted, and said, "No wonder with Xiao Li'er's skills, she can't even surrender, you must know that Xiao Li'er can communicate with animals-ah!"
In the end, she screamed with a frightened look, Lin Sen understood why she was like this, and immediately comforted: "Mrs. Mo don't worry, I know this matter, it's not in the way, little Molly will never suffer bad treatment because of this." ”
"That's the best, that's the best! Thank you, Sect Master Lin. Mrs. Mo was relieved, thought about it and laughed at herself: "Also, Xiao Li'er's current situation is not bad for this special." ”
That's right, they have all become Yin Spirits, is there any difference between Yin Souls that can communicate with animals and ordinary Yin Spirits? They are all actively hunted down and killed by warriors, can the former die better?
Letting go of the knot, the two chatted about Xiao Molly's daily situation in Tongtian Sect, and after a while, Steward Sun came and said that the master invited Lin Sen to the study to talk about it.
This is the right matter, Lin Sen immediately got up, and Mrs. Mo took the initiative to say when she saw this: "Sect Master Lin, this little guy is here with me first, I like it very much, and now I have nothing to do, so I will play with it for a while." ”
Lin Sen thought about it, there shouldn't be any problem with this, and immediately nodded in agreement, leaving the white fox to follow Steward Sun to the study.
The study room in the prefect's mansion is naturally extraordinary, the area alone is more than three times the size of the main quiet room of the Tongtian Sect, it is very spacious, and the row of bookshelves standing against the wall not only put books, but also porcelain vases and jade and other embellishments, and the calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall complement each other. On both sides of the vermilion wide desk, there are four chairs on both sides, which are simple and elegant, and very beautiful.
Unexpectedly, at this time, there was not only Sun Ting sitting behind the desk in the study, but also Mo Wenhou sitting on one side.
"Sect Master Lin is here, please take a seat. ”
As the master, Sun Ting greeted him, Mo Wenhou just nodded and chuckled, Lin Sen responded with his hand, and sat opposite Mo Wenhou on the other side.
"Sect Master Lin, your relationship with Brother Mo is extraordinary, so I won't say those useless words. Sun Ting didn't delay at all, and went straight to the point: "I can guess your intention, don't worry, a few days ago, I sent someone to set up the big day gate and mention your matter, I believe they won't embarrass you again." ”
This is good news, Lin Sen immediately thanked him: "Thank you Lord Sun for your help." ”
"Don't worry, Sect Master Lin, I haven't finished my sentence yet. Sun Ting waved his hand and said with a serious face: "But there is a big problem now, if it is not solved, Da Rimen will not be embarrassed by you in the future, and it may not be in the future!"
