Chapter 70: Commitment
It is said that the man has gold under his knees, and he does not kneel lightly. He never knelt down to anyone in his previous life, he only knelt in front of his dead parents and cried in a muffled voice, and he only knelt down to his master in this life. It doesn't matter if he kneels again for the sake of promise, let alone an old lady who is enough to be his ancestor, there is nothing wrong with kneeling. Yue Qianchou shook his head and said with a wry smile: "The disciple begged Jiugu to worship something, but it was really difficult to talk about it, so I had to kneel down and beg each other." ”
Ma Jiugu's open eyelids drooped again, walked a few steps on crutches, stared at him and asked, "What do you actually want to kneel down and beg for?" The other two women also looked at him.
Damn! You like to kneel! Yue Qianchou thought about it and said, "I want to find Jiugu to worship the spiritual grass seeds needed to refine the Zhuji Dan." ”
Yan Zixia and Lan Bingxue were stunned, they both thought that they had misheard, it was reasonable to want to build a foundation pill, but if they wanted a seed, would they want to grow the spirit grass alchemy pill by themselves?
Ma Jiugu who they thought of naturally thought of it, and more than they thought.
"You get up and speak first. Ma Jiugu asked, "Do you want the seeds for yourself or for others?" She thought maybe it would be sent by another sect. Yan Zixia was slightly startled, she also thought of this possibility, Yue Qianchou came from the Qingguang Sect, she knew it.
Whoever likes to kneel has not been born to be a minion. Yue Qianchou stood up and said, "It's the disciple who wants it himself." ”
Ma Jiugu said indifferently: "Grow your own spirit grass?"
"Yes. ”
"Want to refine Kidan yourself?"
"Yes. ”
"Refine it for your own use?"
"Yes. ”
"This old body can't figure it out, after three years, you can obviously get three Tsukidans, why do you still do this?" Ma Jiugu turned to look at him and asked, "Can you tell me why?"
Yue Qianchou hesitated slightly, and resolutely said: "Promise! For a promise, otherwise I can wait for three years." ”
"The old body still doesn't understand. You've been in the mulberry garden for so long, you should know that it's difficult to grow the main medicine of Tsukidan. Even if you can plant it alive, even if the old body gives you seeds, you won't be able to plant them in three years. In this case, you might as well wait another three years. I don't know if I'm old and confused, I can't figure out this account. Yue Qianchou, can you explain to the old body?" Ma Jiugu gently poked the cane in her hand on the ground.
Yue Qian paused, shook his head and said, "The disciple can't explain clearly. Naturally, it was impossible for him to tell her Jinzhu's secret.
Ma Jiugu said "oh", walked a few steps on crutches, stopped and said: "You know the rules of Fuxian Island, spirit grass and seeds are not allowed to be passed on. ”
The rules Yue Qianchou also knew that when he was gloomy, Ma Jiugu said again: "Speaking of which, you are also a disciple of Fuxian Island, and it is not a spread to give you seeds, and it has not been a matter of giving seeds to a disciple to plant them privately...... But I can give it to you. ”
Yue Qian was stunned, Yan Zixia and Lan Bingxue were also surprised.
"The premise is that you are not allowed to pass on the seeds of Fuxian Island to outsiders, if you don't follow this article, I will never give you the seeds. Ma Jiugu said with his back to him.
Yue Qian was overjoyed, and hurriedly said, "The disciple will never pass on the seed to anyone. He didn't expect Ma Jiugu to agree.
"Okay, you have to remember what you said today, if you dare to disobey it, not only will the old body violate the door rules, but you will also violate the door rules, even if you run to the ends of the earth, the old body will crush you to ashes, do you believe it?" Ma Jiugu was old, but her indifferent words carried confidence that could not be doubted.
Ma Jiugu's cultivation is there, and if she wants to kill others, Yue Qianchou certainly believes that she has that strength, she has a golden bead, and there is a white fox in the golden bead who is also a cultivator in the late stage of the tribulation, but I am afraid that it is useless for her to be confident.
But there was no need at all, Yue Qianchou never thought of giving the seeds to others, and immediately said cautiously: "Disciple Yue Qianchou swears to the sky that he will never pass on the seeds to anyone, otherwise he will not die well." ”
The most taboo thing in the cultivation world is to swear, what people who cultivate the truth do is to go against the sky, and if they break the oath, they will often take the oath, which is not a joke.
"Don't say yes too soon, I still have something to say before I give you seeds. Ma Jiugu turned to stare at him and smiled.
Is there still a condition?Yue Qianchou frowned slightly, but still said respectfully: "Your old man, please speak." ”
Ma Jiugu glanced at Yan Zixia and said slowly: "Since you are a person who re-promises, then the old body wants you to make a promise, as long as you promise the old body, I can give you the spirit grass seed immediately." ”
"Promise, what promise?" Yue Qian said in amazement. Yan Zixia and Lan Bingxue also looked at Ma Jiugu together, not knowing what kind of promise she wanted.
Ma Jiugu shook her head and said, "You promise the old body first." ”
Yue Qianchou hesitated, how can this kind of thing be agreed casually, in case you let me die, or if it is impossible for me to do it, how can you let me agree.
Ma Jiugu knew that he had scruples, and said with a smile: "This promise of the old body is not difficult for you to fulfill, and it will not hurt you, and there are great benefits, do you agree?"
"Uh......" He didn't believe in pies falling from the sky, but he couldn't resist the temptation of spiritual grass seeds, and said timidly: "If it is really as Jiugu said, the disciple Yue Qianchou will naturally agree." You old man talk about it!" added in his heart, if it is something I can't do, don't blame Lao Tzu for regretting it when the time comes.
Ma Jiugu laughed and said: "Okay, since you promised, I also believe that you are a person who keeps promises, as for what promises are, I will talk about them later, maybe there is no need to say it again in the future, when it is time to say it, I will naturally tell you, you just need to remember to owe me a promise." ”
Yan Zixia and Lan Bingxue looked at each other, not knowing what kind of dumb riddle this old lady played. Yue Qianchou felt weird, and always felt that there was a big conspiracy waiting for him.
It could be seen that Ma Jiugu was very happy, poked the cane in her hand, and said, "Lan girl, prepare ten seeds of each of the spirit grass needed to refine the Zhuji Dan and give him, go now." ”
"Yes. Lan Bingxue went to fetch the seeds with a stomach full of doubts.
"Xie Jiugu is enshrined. Yue Qianchou smiled embarrassedly, it stands to reason that he got what he dreamed of, and he should be happy, but he always felt that he couldn't be happy, and he didn't know whether he lost or earned by exchanging a promise for spirit grass seeds. At present, we can only take one step at a time.
It didn't take long for Lan Bingxue to bring something, wrapped it in a small cloth bag, handed it to Yue Qianchou and said, "You open it and see if it's what you want." ”
Yue Qianchou stuffed it into the storage bag without hesitation, and said with a smile: "No need, how can the things that Elder Lan personally took be wrong, disciple Elder Xie Lan." ”
Lan Bingxue smiled lightly and stood back beside Ma Jiugu. She and Yan Zixia were a little confused, first of all, they didn't know what Yue Qianchou was doing with the seeds, it seemed a little unbelievable to say that she planted the spirit grass, and Ma Jiugu's promise was also incomprehensible.
After asking if it was okay, Yue Qianchou withdrew from the inner garden, and when he was outside, he saw that Furong was working, and he didn't say hello, so he returned to the small house in a hurry, and couldn't wait to disappear.
