Chapter 9 Birthday Celebrations
The Sand Scorpion Gang, the gang leader "Sand King" received a report from his subordinates, saying that there was a caravan outside asking to see him!
The sand king couldn't help but be curious, in the desert, every gang is a caravan vampire, and if they encounter it, they will be stripped of a layer, and if they are a little weaker, they will be eaten to the point that there is no scum left.
On weekdays, there are caravans passing by, and they are all secretly avoiding the gang, how can someone take the initiative to send them to the door!
The sand king asked his subordinates who came to report, "How many people have come, and what kind of cultivation are they?"
The subordinate replied, "There is a man and a woman, the man is a young man, and the woman is veiled and cannot see her face." The subordinates can't see through their cultivation, so it's estimated that they are foundation building monks!"
The Sand King sneered: "Just two foundation building monks, they dare to break into my Sand Scorpion Gang, let them come over, I will meet them!"
After a while, a man and a woman came in.
The man bowed his head slightly, and said with a smile: "In Xia Zhulin, he is a businessman, passing by the treasure land today, I heard that the two gang leaders of the Sand Scorpion Gang are about to celebrate their birthdays, and I specially came to congratulate him.
The Sand King stared at the visitor for a moment, and suddenly said, "You call me 'Sand King', how do you know that I am not a 'poisonous scorpion'?"
The Sand King and the Scorpion are twin brothers, and they look exactly the same, even if people close to them can't distinguish them for a while, this person said the name of the Sand King, which made him very curious.
Claiming to be Zhu Lin is naturally Zhu Youdao, he smiled and said: "Actually, it's very easy to separate, if you are a 'poisonous scorpion', you are already in a different place at this moment!"
The Sand King's face changed, and he said coldly: "What did you say!"
Zhu Youdao said without changing his face: "I heard that there will be no living businessmen in front of the 'poisonous scorpion'! If you are a 'poisonous scorpion', you must have already done something to us, Zhu is not talented, but he is not a person who can be slaughtered, if the poisonous scorpion wants to do it, then we can only kill him first!"
The Sand King was very jealous of this person in his heart, this person was in someone else's territory, and he could still smile and speak wildly with a flat mouth. If you are not crazy, you are very confident in your own strength!
And the person in front of him doesn't look like an unwise person no matter how you look at it!
The Sand King is the most cautious and never does anything that he is not sure of.
He snorted coldly and said, "What do you have to do here, please speak up, so as not to cause misunderstanding!"
Zhu Youdao still had a spring breeze on his face, and said: "Don't misunderstand, the leader of the Shawang Gang is indeed here to celebrate his birthday, this is a gift from below!"
As he spoke, he flipped his hand over, and there was an extra brocade box on his palm.
"A small gift, not a tribute, please also ask the Shawang gang leader to smile!"
Zhu Youdao said, shook his hand, and the brocade box flew towards the sand king lightly.
Sha Wang took a step back, swiped his palm, and swept the brocade box into the hands of the guards beside him.
The guard hurriedly took the brocade box, opened it, looked at it, and then bowed down to present it to the Sand King.
The Sand King just glanced at it, and his eyes lit up!
I saw that inside the brocade box, there were two ginseng plants of the same size lying side by side!
In the cultivation world, ginseng is the most common elixir and is not rare. Unless it is an extremely old ginseng that is hundreds of years old, it is more precious!
To the surprise of the sand king, the two ginseng strains in the brocade box are old ginseng that are more than 500 years old, which is very beneficial to the monks in the foundation building period!
This gift is already very precious!
Sha Wang closed the brocade box and laughed: "Daoyou Zhu Lin, the biggest hobby of this gang leader in his life is to make friends with fellow Daoists from all over the world, Zhu Daoyou came with sincerity, how can I not entertain well!
Zhu Youdao shook his head: "There's no need to drink tea, the gift just now is for the birthday of the two helpers, and there is still a business to discuss with the helpers!"
"Oh, what business does Zhu Daoyou want to discuss?"
"The first time Zhu went to the desert to do business, he was not familiar with everything in the desert, and he wanted to hire a guide, and he heard that the Sand Scorpion Gang was full of talents, so he specially changed his route to borrow someone from the gang leader!"
Finally showing the fox's tail!
Sha Wang sneered in his heart, his face slowly turned cold, he glanced at the subordinate guarding the door, and the man immediately understood, walked out of the living room, and went to find another gang leader, the poisonous scorpion!
Zhu Youdao didn't seem to see their small movements, and continued to ask: "Shawang gang leader, don't you know if you are willing to part with love?"
The sand king laughed: "Zhu Daoyou's golden mouth is open, how can this gang leader be stingy with a guide!"
The dozen or so guards in my hall are all old men who have been with me for decades, and they all know the situation in the desert well!
Zhu Daoyou, you can choose one!"
Zhu Youdao shook his head slightly: "I heard that your gang has a military advisor named Xu Fu! Where is he? Why don't you come out and see him?"
The Sand King shook his head and said with some regret: "Zhu Daoyou, forgive me, if it is someone else, it will be okay if Daoyou takes it away, but Xu Fu is the military advisor of my Sand Scorpion Gang, and his status in this gang is respected, second only to me and the poisonous scorpion!
Zhu Youdao flipped through his hand, took out another brocade box, and said, "Won't the Sand King Gang Leader take a look at the price I offered?"
As he spoke, he pushed the brocade box over.
The Sand King was extremely cautious, but still did not let the brocade box get close. He came to see it after it was opened by the guards.
This time, there are two beautifully shaped flying knife magic weapons in the brocade box.
He picked up the flying knife, entered the mana, and examined it carefully, and suddenly fell in love with it.
These two flying knives turned out to be second-order high-grade magic weapons.
Whether it is the material itself or the refining technique, the performance and power of the rune of the flying knife are all the top grades in the magic weapon.
To tell the truth, if you take a Xu Fu who has deviated from morality, and exchange it for these two flying knives, the sand king is a hundred willing.
But just agreed to release him, he always felt a little unwilling.
The Sand King hesitated, shook his head and said, "Not enough!"
What he said is not enough, not that it can't be done!
Zhu Youdao laughed, took out another brocade box, and pushed it over.
The guards came over and opened the brocade box, and this time there were two spirit runes inside, and they were third-order spirit runes!
The Sand King was moved, if used well, these two spirit runes could kill two foundation building monks.
Is it possible to use this spirit rune to kill this man and woman!
He's already taken out so many good things, he must have more treasures on him!
Seeing that this person was still smiling and looking unfathomable, the sand king only thought about it in his heart, and didn't dare to really do it.
"Big brother!"
There was a shout from outside the parlour, and then a black figure floated in and stood beside the Sand King.
When Sha Wang saw his younger brother coming, he had confidence in his heart, and he laughed and said, "Zhu Daoyou, this is my brother!"
Zhu Youdao smiled and bowed: "The name of the scorpion gang leader, Zhu has also admired it for a long time!"
Shawang Chuanyin told the situation and the poisonous scorpion, the poisonous scorpion was the most murderous, and said with a grim face: "Big brother, what do you want to do so much, there are only two of them, and they are just foundation building monks, just kill them!"
Sha Wang shook his head: "I really can't see through this Zhu Lin, there is a way that the one who comes is not good, and the good one does not come! It's not that the dragon is not the river! If he dares to come, he must have something to rely on! Xu Fu has already escaped once, and he doesn't want to be used by us again, the value is not great, I am thinking about whether to get rid of him, since this surnamed Zhu has paid a lot of money, it is better to give him the person!"
The only thing in the scorpion life is to listen to the words of the eldest brother, and when he saw that the eldest brother showed his attitude, he no longer objected, but just sat aside and looked at Zhu Youdao fiercely.
Zhu Youdao didn't care, and looked at him with a smile!
"Hahaha!"
Sha Wang laughed and said, "Brother Zhu, everyone knows Xu Fu's ability, your price is still low!"
Zhu Youdao didn't increase the price this time, and shook his head with a smile: "It's not low!"
He counted them on his fingers: "Two five-hundred-year-old ginseng, two second-order magic weapons, and two third-order spirit runes...... Oh, by the way, and the lives of two helpers! You see, I'm very sincere!"
His words were not hurried or slow, but in fact, they were full of threats and provocations!
The scorpion slapped the table and was about to make a move, but was held down by the Sand King.
Shawang laughed and said: "Zhu Daoyou is really joking! Since you are full of sincerity, then Xu Fu will take it away!"
He commanded: "Someone, go and invite the military advisor!"
A moment later, a lame young man with a cane in his hand was brought in.
He came to the sand king and the poisonous scorpion, bowed down and shouted, "Helper!"
Sha Wang smiled and helped him up: "Brother Xu, let me introduce you, this is Zhu Lin Daoyou, he has taken a fancy to your talent and wants to ask you to help him do things, I don't know if you are willing?"
Xu Fu turned around and stared at Zhu Youdao for a moment, and suddenly asked out loud, "May I ask where Daoyou is from?"
Zhu Youdao replied: "Zhenzhou!"
He asked, "What do I get by working for you?"
Zhu Youdao replied: "Then it depends on your ability, as long as you can prove your worth, you can have anything?"
"Will you restrict me from improving my cultivation?"
Xu Fu was most concerned about this, originally he worked for the Sand Scorpion Gang wholeheartedly, but the two gang leaders were afraid of his ability and worried that he would not be controlled after building the foundation, so they pressed him to prevent him from building the foundation.
Xu Fu saw that there was no way out in the Sand Scorpion Gang, so he wanted to abscond and find another way out, but unfortunately he was not strong enough, and he escaped not far away, and was captured by the Sand King in the foundation building period.
Therefore, if he takes refuge in a new master, he must first ask whether it will restrict him from improving his cultivation.
If he can't improve his cultivation, even if he dies, he doesn't want to serve others anymore.
Zhu Youdao laughed after listening to Xu Fu's question: "Xu Fu, Xu Fu, if you have the ability, make enough credit, I will prepare the spirit object for you! As for the transformation of the gods, you have to figure out how to figure it out yourself!"
After hearing this, Xu Fu did not hesitate, immediately knelt down, and said loudly: "Meet the lord!"
Zhu Youdao continued: "These two people restricted your cultivation and broke your legs, but you want me to kill them to avenge you?"
The Sand King and the poisonous scorpion were shocked and furious, they didn't expect this Zhu Lin to be so arrogant that he would say that he wanted to kill them to his face.
But I heard Xu Fu say: "The lord can't, I was chased and killed back then, fled to Shazhou, and had to be taken in by two gang leaders to stay here, although they blocked my way, but they also saved my life! Since then, I have eliminated grievances with the Sand Scorpion Gang, and I have nothing to do with it, and I can just serve the lord wholeheartedly!"
Zhu Youdao regretfully said to the veiled woman beside him: "Yun Niang, these two gang leaders endured it and didn't do it, and Xu Fu didn't want to kill them, but unfortunately we couldn't find an excuse to go out of the knife, and delayed your opportunity to improve your cultivation......"
Li Yunniang smiled gently: "Husband, there are people in the desert who can be killed, let's go elsewhere!"
Watching the two of them talking, laughing, and feasting, without showing their strength, the sand king and the poisonous scorpion suddenly broke out in a cold sweat!
