Chapter 59: The Sacrifice
Jiang Tang's eyes didn't change for a moment, and he didn't take the woman's sentence "We are all sinners" as the same thing at all.
She has seen too many people who pretend to be in appearance, where would she take this kind of unnutritious dismount in her eyes.
"You also want to give me two thousand medium-grade spirit stones?"
She looked the other person in the eye and asked with great seriousness.
It's just a mid-stage cultivation of the foundation, and if you don't have so many spirit stones, it's best not to run around at the door of people's homes.
The woman obviously didn't expect Jiang Tang to react like this, and after being slightly stunned, she immediately reacted that she was being counterthreatened.
And the other party is obviously not joking or bluffing, but really has such a plan, and is even thinking about making this plan come true.
Thinking of what Feng Jun said, although the woman suspected that it was an exaggeration, she still restrained a lot in the end.
"Daoyou said and laughed, I don't have so many spirit stones, it was mine just now, I shouldn't open my mouth and say something brainless. But I really have a secret here that I want to share with fellow Daoists, I wonder if I can go into the room and talk to Daoist friends alone? ”
The woman didn't believe that Jiang Tang was really not interested in the secret she said, but this time she was much more tactful, and took the initiative to show weakness and took a step back, no longer showing the strength she had deliberately shown before.
Just now was not only a temptation, but also wanted to directly grasp the initiative, but the person in front of her didn't accept this set, so she naturally had to change her strategy.
"Then how many spirit stones do you have?"
Jiang Tang was still as immobile as a mountain, and he was not interested in secrets at all, but he had no scruples about holding on to the question of spirit stones: "If there are too few spirit stones, I don't have the time to listen to what secrets you share." ”
"What?"
At this moment, the woman finally broke the defense, stared at Jiang Tang with a look of disbelief and confirmed: "You mean, I still have to give you the spirit stone before you are willing to listen to my secret?" ”
"Or else?"
Jiang Tang asked back as a matter of course: "What is your secret doing to me, why do you delay my precious efforts to listen to your nonsense?" ”
"You, you, you...... You don't really want to know ...... at all."
Before she finished speaking, the woman saw that Jiang Tang was already very impatient and ready to close the door.
Seeing that people directly expressed their attitude with practical actions, she was even more anxious, and hurriedly blocked the door and subconsciously changed her words: "I have five thousand low-grade spirit stones, and there are no medium-grade spirit stones." ”
"So poor?"
Jiang Tang looked disgusted: "It's all foundation building realm, are you too far behind the one last time?" Forget it, five thousand lower grade spirit stones are five thousand lower grade spirit stones, for the sake of being a fellow female cultivator, and you are still sincere, I will listen to you talk for half an hour, no more. ”
“……”
The woman's face was even more strange, and she didn't know how things had come to this point.
She paid five thousand spirit stones, and when she thought of what happened next, the grievances in her heart were finally less.
However, people have to take a long-term view, and there is no need to consider the length of the moment.
When she finally followed Jiang Tang into the house, closed the door, and had a space to be alone, the woman's eyes looked at Jiang Tang more and more expectantly.
"If you have any secrets you want to tell, you can tell."
Jiang Tang sat down on the main seat by himself, and did not mean to greet the other party at all: "The timer has begun, I hope you hurry up so as not to overtime." If you overtime, you will have to pay more. ”
The woman was choked by Jiang Tang's indifferent attitude, and there was a kind of anger about what she was doing.
However, the more this happened, the more she couldn't help but wonder why Jiang Tang didn't care so much.
Could it be that the other party already knew? Otherwise, why such an attitude?
Thinking of this possibility, the anger in the woman's heart was extinguished, and she didn't rush to speak, but looked at Jiang Tang silently, not knowing what she was thinking.
Seeing this, Jiang Tang didn't urge, and looked at the other party, as if the timer had already begun in half an hour anyway, and the spirit stones were all received, and he liked to talk about it casually.
What sinner is not a sinner, she will be afraid?
She is not interested in claiming the identity of a sinner for herself, don't think that she can be pinched with such a plausible word.
The secret of the island, or the bigger secret related to it, she really didn't care that much.
She has curiosity, but she doesn't have many of them.
Since anything has already happened, the process, the cause, and so on are not really important, as if knowing something in advance will definitely change the final direction.
In the final analysis, except for constantly strengthening itself, everything else is nothing.
"My name is Quicksand, and like you, when I was a mortal, I was suddenly taken to a remote island to start cultivating for some reason."
After a long while, the woman finally stopped being silent and no longer talking nonsense, and said with a focus: "After three years, only twenty people will be able to leave the isolated island alive. Jiang Tang, we have the same experience, we are the same kind, we are all sinners. Because of this, leaving the island is not really a new birth, but the beginning of atonement. ”
Speaking of this, Quicksand saw that Jiang Tang's expression had not changed at all, and he did not react at all, as if he hadn't heard anything, and he was immediately deflated, and he didn't know how to continue for a while.
This is not a normal person's reaction, believe it or not, at least she will have some emotional feedback after such a call, right?
"You don't have anything to ask?"
Quicksand was really puzzled, and was completely overwhelmed by Jiang Tang's attitude: "For example, why do I know your name?" For example, why do I know that we are of the same kind? ”
"Oh, so how do you know?"
Jiang Tang cooperated very perfunctorily, and then emphasized seriously: "I'm not a sinner, whether you love to be a sinner or love to atone for your sins, don't take me with you." Otherwise I'll be unkind to you. ”
The implication is that you can say whatever you like, she doesn't care at all if it's true or not, and she's not interested, but she just can't climb her indiscriminately.
Everyone in this world is a sinner, and it is not her turn.
"Jiang Tang, you really don't care at all? Do you really think it all has nothing to do with you? ”
Quicksand became a little angry: "Do you know that there is more than one island like that, and the selection every three years has been going on for an unknown number of years!" We are born sinful, so we are chosen, and even if we try our best to survive, we will only be sacrificed to death in the end! Don't you want to get rid of your predetermined fate? Don't you want to elevate your sins from sacrifice to oracle? ”
"Poof!"
Jiang Tang couldn't hold back, and laughed directly: "The person who brainwashed you is powerful enough, it's the first time I've heard that a sacrifice can become a divine envoy." Okay, okay, you go on, oh no, go on, it's not half an hour yet. During the paid time, you can say whatever you want. ”
