In front of everyone's eyes, it turned out to be an extremely lush field of spiritual grass, and the leaves of the spiritual grass were so green that water dripped out.
If everyone hadn't clearly remembered that this place was a sloping land a few days ago, they would almost have thought that Shao Ci was someone with a background.
The nephew in charge rushed over in disbelief, grabbed a stalk of spirit grass and was about to pull it up to check, "How is it possible, impossible, this must be some kind of illusion! I don't believe it!"
He absolutely didn't believe in such a thing, how could the title of middle servant that he was about to acquire be taken away by someone.
However, after encountering the spirit grass, he had to admit that everything he saw before him was reality.
The others also looked at Shao Ci in astonishment, and they couldn't imagine how he managed to achieve such a level. Could it be that he really gained experience in planting spiritual grass
And no one asked Shao Ci how he did it. After all, Moxiu is like this. As long as you can achieve your goal, it doesn't matter what the process is.
Since Shao Ci can turn this withered field into what it is now, he has the means.
There are five managers in charge of Lingtian, and the surname that Shao Ci offended was Zhang. He was originally promoted from a low-level servant. highly.
The other in charge naturally avoided him. In the area outside, Zhang in charge can be said to cover the sky with one hand. He manages not only the Lingtian, but also many other things.
And this middle-level servant position, he has long been optimistic about giving it to his nephew, how can someone else take it away now, and immediately said: "This spiritual grass field was only allocated a few days ago, and it stands to reason that it is not cultivated by this person. Yes, so the results are invalid."
Shao Ci: "!"
Damn it, why don't you say that your nephew's spiritual grass field is not raised by yourself, so it is invalid? !
The other people also looked like this. After all, as long as Zhang is in charge, how could Shao Ci get the chance to be promoted... Even if Shao Ci insisted on managing this spiritual grass field to such an extent within three days, he would not be able to do it what.
But in their hearts, they didn't completely despise Shao Ci as before, but they had a little more respect for him.
Just as Mr. Zhang was about to come to a conclusion like this, another director came out, "Mr. Zhang, what you said is not right."
Mr. Zhang didn't expect someone to refute him, so he squinted his eyes and looked over, "Mr. Zhuang, what do you mean?"
Master Zhuang said: "We don't have any rules here that changing the field is not counted. As long as it is his field in the record on the day of evaluation, it is his achievement... Could it be that Master Zhang has forgotten this?"
Zhang Zhang naturally didn't forget, but because no one would stand up and talk, he wanted to get by like this. At this time, his eyes suddenly became colder, and he was extremely upset, but he didn't want to be caught by Zhuang Zhang, so he could only smile. Said: "Just now I thought I seemed to have forgotten something, so I forgot this point, thank you Director Zhuang for reminding me."
Even if Zhang Zhang was extremely unhappy, he couldn't break the rules here because of this, so he reluctantly selected the person who was promoted to be Shao Ci.
After the result was announced, everyone's faces were quite exciting, and Zhang Zhang's nephew even looked at Shao Ci with resentment, wishing to kill Shao Ci directly.
Most people remembered how they mocked Shao Ci before, and then looked at Shao Ci's current appearance, and wanted to strangle their past self for a moment.
But they were still comforting themselves in their hearts, Shao Ci had offended Zhang Zhang, and the days after that would probably not be much easier, so they didn't have to be afraid of anything.
However, a small number of people realized that Shao Ci might have a future, and they even went to compliment Shao Ci directly, and they all looked very admirable, and said all kinds of words of praise from their mouths.
Shao Ci remembered the contemptuous eyes they looked at him before, and he felt a little admiration in his heart. If it was him, he would definitely not be able to achieve such a shameless level.
After becoming a middle-level servant, the treatment was many times better than before, so Shao Ci moved directly into the yard of the middle-level servant.
That's right, the mid-level servants have a special courtyard to live in, and there is also a special place for cultivation in it. This treatment is much better than that of formal disciples of many small sects.
But more importantly, the mid-level servant still has the chance to be in charge... Of course, after Shao Ci offended Zhang in charge, this path would probably be cut off.
Moreover, Shao Ci felt that things would not go so smoothly. How could the manager not retaliate when he watched his nephew's position being robbed? He would probably find a way to make things difficult for him in the future.
Looking at the sky outside, it was already noon.
He had to see Si Wuyue before it got dark! They have already worked so hard to achieve this step, if they don't complete the task today, Shao Ci can literally spit out a mouthful of blood.
The work of the middle-level servants is basically to manage the lower-level servants, and they also have duties such as delivering things.
Because I can meet some high-status people when I deliver things, and if I am lucky, I can hug my thighs, so I will be scrambled by many middle-level servants every time. How can Shao Ci, who has just been promoted, have such an opportunity.
Even if he went to the top of the mountain by himself, the guards would not let him in, and they would let Zhang Zhang take advantage of it.
When Shao Ci was worried, the opportunity was presented to him.
In the lobby, all the mid-level servants gathered here, and the one standing in the front was Zhang Zhangshi.
"This is the information sent back from the secret realm, who would like to send it?" Zhang Zhang took out a jade slip and put it on the table in front of him.
Usually this kind of work is a group of people scrambling to get it, but now, no one dares to make a sound, and all the middle-level servants are staring at the ground and dare not speak.
Everyone knows very well that all the demon cultivators who went to the secret realm died this time. At that time, when the demon lord woke up, he thought that many people would die. Unexpectedly, the demon lord seemed to be in a good mood, but there was no one there. die.
But that was the time, and now I still have to send this information, isn't it to remind Lord Mozun of what happened before? How could it not be killed by Lord Mozun on the spot.
Even if you can see Lord Mozun, so what, if everyone is dead, what else can you show off.
Shao Ci was a little moved when he heard it, although he also vaguely remembered that when he was about to eat lunch, the magic cultivators in the secret realm seemed to have been killed by Ling Wangchen... So it is obviously very dangerous to send this information, No wonder these people look like they don't want to give it away.
Now comes the problem.
In the end, choose to do the task, or choose to live (.
Shao Ci suddenly felt miserable.
After Zhang Zhang finished asking, no one answered for a long time.
He had expected such a situation earlier, so he smiled and said, "It seems that everyone wants to give this opportunity to the newcomers."
The others immediately understood that Zhang's job was to cheat Shao's resignation, and each of them breathed a sigh of relief, and immediately said: "That's right, such a good opportunity is naturally given to newcomers."
"Yeah, we don't have an opinion."
"After all, we are all old, and it is best to let newcomers do this."
...
…
Shao Ci: "!" Damn it, although I already knew that this kind of thing would happen, but can your acting skills be any more hypocritical!
Have these people forgotten that they are demon cultivators? All of them looked so cordial and enthusiastic, if someone who didn't know saw it, they would definitely think that they had made a mistake.
These people are gloating in their hearts, but on the surface they look at Shao Ci with enthusiasm, and they are also glad that Shao Ci has an enmity with the boss, otherwise they will be in trouble, and they are not here to kill their lives when they finally become middle-class servants. Enjoy it.
Seeing that Shao Ci hadn't spoken yet, Zhang Zhang's face suddenly sank, "Why, you are not happy? This is something that others can't ask for. If it weren't for your hard work and being a newcomer, How could I let you send it?"
The others nodded one after another, as if what Zhang Zhang said made sense.
"If you don't want to, there are naturally a lot of people who are willing." Zhang Zhang said again, "It's just that people who can't even do this well, I don't think there is any need to sit in the middle servant position."
It was almost a direct threat.
Now that things have developed to such a situation, if Shao Ci really refuses, it will be very difficult. Anyway, he will see Si Wuyue today no matter what, the other is nothing, the big deal is to go all out and have another bento.
"I'll just go." Shao Ci said.
Zhang Zhang suddenly showed a smile, "This matter must be done well, maybe you will win the favor of the adults, and you will be prosperous from now on."
Shao Ci pretended to be looking forward to it, and nodded quickly.
The others all looked sympathetic, they knew in their hearts that not to mention prosperity, not dying is the best ending.
Who told Shao Ci to offend the person in charge? This can only be blamed on himself.
Then Zhang Zhang handed a jade talisman and a jade slip that could enter the formation to Shao Ci together, and Shao Ci went out under great pressure.
Not far from the door, Director Zhuang came to look for Shao Ci.
It was he who couldn't bear to see Shao Ci before and proposed to see Shao Ci's spiritual grass field before, and it was he who refuted Zhang Zhang this morning and insisted on making Shao Ci a medium servant.
Shao Ci still had a good impression of Mr. Zhuang, and said, "Mr. Zhuang, what do you want from me?"
Director Zhuang is obsessed with the spiritual grass field, and he has a good impression of Shao Ci who can take care of the spiritual grass so well. At first, he just thought that Shao Ci was good, but after seeing that scene this morning, he immediately became interested in talent. I can't bear to watch such a genius die like this.
But there is nothing he can do in the current situation. Mr. Zhuang sighed, and said to Shao Ci: "Mr. Zhang is determined to put you to death. Although I can't help you, if you want, I will help you." Someone could just send you out. It might not be as smooth as life here, though."
But at least he can survive.
Shao Ci was shocked, "Why are you so kind to me, I was just a low-level servant in the past, wasn't I?"
There are still such good people in Moxiu, Shao Ci felt that his three views were shattered for a while.
"Anyway, I'm a loner, so if I die, I'll die." Director Zhuang sighed, "You're very talented in spiritual herbs... no, you're the most talented person I've ever seen, and you're still so young. There is an opportunity to grow. If you die like this, I really feel bad."
Shao Ci was moved but at the same time a little embarrassed. After all, his method of managing the Lingcao Field was quite simple and rude, and said: "It's okay, I will survive, you don't have to worry."
Manager Zhuang looked at Shao Ci in surprise, and then said: "Since you have already made up your mind, then I won't say anything anymore, hey."
He sighed, as if he couldn't bear to look at Shao Ci again, turned around and left.
And Shao Ci continued to walk up the mountain.
No one can fly on this mountain road, otherwise it will be considered disrespectful to Lord Mozun, so everyone can only walk up.
Shao Ci was originally a Qi refining period who couldn't fly, so it didn't make any difference to him whether he could fly or not. After gathering the spiritual power under his feet, he walked much faster, and he reached his destination as if walking like flying.
There are countless formations outside the palace, and after putting the jade talisman on his body, Shao Ci walked in safely.
In fact, if it weren't for the strict management in this area, as long as Guanshi Zhang fiddled with the jade talisman, Shao Ci would have already eaten lunch.
The outside of the palace was full of demon guards. After learning about Shao Ci's intention, a guard led Shao Ci into the palace.
Shao Ci was really worried that he would be directly killed by Si Wuyue after entering, so he asked the guard cautiously, "Brother, how is Lord Mozun feeling recently?"
The guard looked at Shao Ci with some reluctance, "We can guess what Lord Mozun is thinking. But this time...you should make preparations in advance."
Shao Ci: "..." It seems that the situation is really bad.
How could a person like Si Wuyue who is so heartbroken upon meeting him be easy to get along with.
And the high-class servants who passed by all looked at them with dead eyes, and didn't say a word, obviously they were too lazy to say anything to a person who was about to become a dead person, not to mention that they never thought of themselves as inferiors. People, of course, are very different from people like Shao Ci.
And a high-ranking servant glanced at Shao Ci with a strange look. He was the person Zhang Zhang was fawning on.
He immediately greeted him, greeted the guards very enthusiastically, and said that it was enough for him to take Shao Ci to his destination.
The guard nodded and left directly.
Afterwards, the servant proudly asked Shao Ci what he was doing here this time.
Shao Ci didn't know what he was going to do, so he told the truth, anyway, there was nothing wrong with this matter.
The other party's expression suddenly became very boring.
It's just a low-level mid-level servant, Zhang Zhang actually has to spend so much effort to kill him, it's a shame. If it wasn't for Zhang Zhangshi's filial piety to many things, he would have cared about the other party's life and death.
Then the high-ranking servant said: "You can go to the Lord Mozun. The Lord Mozun likes people who can talk the most. You have to work hard. Maybe you can get the Lord Mozun." Are you blue-eyed?"
When he said this, his attitude was much more cordial.
Shao Ci nodded quickly, with an expression of gratitude on the surface, but he felt that something was definitely wrong in his heart, this person did not look like a good person, there must be something wrong with this sentence.
And the other high-ranking servants also heard what this man said, but they didn't seem to hear it.
Anyway, this kind of mid-level servants are potential competitors, and the more they die, the better.
At the beginning, they thought that the gentle and shy demon was easy to get along with, but suddenly many people were moved and tried to seduce each other, as long as they succeeded in the position, they could become a master.
Although I have heard many things that the other party has done, everyone has not taken it seriously. But the Lord Mozun is not the person they imagined at all, and he is many times more terrifying than the previous Mozun.
At least there are traces to follow when the former Demon Lord was angry, but this Lord Demon Lord... These people saw it with their own eyes, and I don’t know how many people were lightly fooled by the extremely gentle smiling Lord Demon Lord just because they didn’t say a word well. die.
And he didn't just let the other party die, but used a kind of magic to torture the other party to death. All kinds of cruel methods made even the demon cultivator feel unbearable.
After a lot of people died, everyone has learned to be obedient, and they dare not approach Lord Mozun casually at all.
But this is still not enough, Master Mozun has a very elusive personality, and he doesn't know when he is happy and when he is not happy.
And he also likes to torture people when he is happy, and he also likes to torture people when he is unhappy.
In short, it is not bad if you can save your life by the side of Lord Mozun.
But they are aggrieved, and they don't want others to live comfortably, especially those middle-level servants, who live more comfortably than them. Why, they are just some servants.
So Shao Ci faced the disdainful and cold eyes of those people, and was taken outside a large hall.
It was still daytime, but when standing at the gate of the hall, it felt extremely gloomy, and even gave people a feeling of goosebumps, but looking up, the gate was clearly open, but the inside could not be seen clearly. I can feel the wind blowing from it.
Shao Ci was intimidated, Si Wuyue's status as the god of the underworld, even if he went in now, it would not be impossible to find the hall full of ghosts, hey!
Suddenly, I admire these people who usually serve Si Wuyue, they must all have developed extremely strong hearts.
And Shao Ci thought about it, he stabbed Si Wuyue, and then indirectly killed all of Si Wuyue's men in the secret realm... Now, even if he is recognized, he will be killed, and if he is not recognized, he will be killed. A situation where he would be killed.
When Shao Ci struggled, the superior servant behind him kept a straight face when he saw this, and said in a cold voice: "Master Mozun is still waiting, what are you doing standing at the door?"
There was disdain in the eyes of the others, and a few even said in a low voice: "You are so timid, and you still want to serve Lord Mozun? It's ridiculous."
Shao Ci thought that the long-term pain is worse than the short-term pain, and it has reached this point, so what are you afraid of... The worst is to fight to the death.
So Shao Ci bit the bullet, took a deep breath, and walked into the hall with the jade slips.
The moment he walked into the hall, everything from the outside world seemed to be cut off from the outside, and the extremely cold air hit him, and Shao Ci felt that his body was half cold in an instant.
And the most frightening thing was the faint blue will-o'-the-wisp light floating in the air.
There are even more weird lines on the ground, and you can only find out that it is a formation if you look carefully.
This road seemed to have no end in sight, Shao Ci walked for a long time before he saw the person sitting on the seat not far away.
Si Wuyue's skin was as pale as paper, and his exquisite appearance was a little more bewildering against the surrounding light. He was sitting on it, holding a bright red heart in his hand, with a gentle smile on his face, just It was like facing a beloved lover.
This scene was extremely weird, Shao Ci walked in place and didn't know if he should go through... I always felt that the atmosphere on the opposite side was not easy to disturb outsiders.
Of course, Shao Ci did not recognize that the heart was his own...
"Come here." Si Wuyue's voice sounded.
Shao Ci could only bite the bullet, walked over tremblingly, then half-kneeled in front of Si Wuyue, and presented the jade slip up.
The opponent's slender fingers took the jade slip.
It was great not to be killed directly, Shao Ci recalled today's daily tasks in his mind.
Today's daily task requirement is to praise the target three times.
Damn it, it was such a simple task, but Shao Ci felt that he was not well.
People like Si Wuyue feel that saying a word will cause a lot of trouble, and they have to praise it three times... If it is possible, Shao Ci simply doesn't want to say a word.
"This is the first time I've seen you." Si Wuyue's voice sounded again, as if speaking to a very familiar person, the voice was very gentle, "Are you scared? Your body is shaking."
Shao Ci quickly raised his head and said, "No, it's just that I was so excited because I saw Lord Mozun at such a close distance for the first time..."
"Oh?"
"After all, Lord Mozun is so powerful, so handsome, and so considerate of everyone. Naturally, I admire Lord Mozun very much." Shao Ci praised him three times in one breath, and finally heaved a sigh of relief.
Shao Ci admired himself for completing the daily task in such a short breath.
"You mean you admire me?" Si Wuyue reached out to stroke the heart in her arms, and looked at Shao Ci with a smile.
"That's right, I think the Demon Realm will be more prosperous in the future with you!"
No wonder, with Si Wuyue as the Demon Lord, it would be good if the Demon Realm was not tossed about by him.
The cold sweat in Shao Ci's heart was about to break down. Fortunately, he had a systematic cheat, otherwise he would definitely be spotted by the other party because of his improper expression.
"I didn't expect me to be like this in the eyes of others, and I'm a little happy." Si Wuyue said slowly, reaching out to pick Shao Ci's chin.
The touch of that cold finger made Shao Ci almost struggle away, but then he held back abruptly, and even blushed with excitement, his eyes sparkled, as if it really belonged to Si Wuyue Like a brain powder.
Then Si Wuyue's face suddenly came closer, the distance made Shao Ci subconsciously hold his breath...
"Your eyes are so pretty."
Damn, it's not like gouging his eyes out!
Shao Ci said: "Many, thank you for the compliment."
Si Wuyue didn't touch Shao Ci's eyes, but changed the subject, "But you also know that if you come here this time, you might be in danger of being killed by me."
Shao Ci: "Yes, yes..."
"Even so, you still want to come see me?" Si Wuyue smiled and asked as if very casually.
Shao Ci's heart tightened, this question is definitely the key point where if he doesn't answer it well, he will eat lunch.
"That's right!" Shao Ci said with an excited look like a fan, "As long as I can see you... It doesn't matter what I do, even if I die like this, I will be very happy!"
Anyway, no matter what, let me boast first... If Si Wuyue wants him to die directly, Shao Ci will have no choice but to do it (.
Si Wuyue let go of her hand, propped her cheek and said, "That's it, but, you're just a middle-level servant, right?"
"En." Shao Ci nodded.
"In this case, wouldn't you die for me?" Si Wuyue said.
Shao Ci: "...this..."
"Do you want to stay by my side?" Si Wuyue smiled again: "As long as you become a high-class servant, you can stay by my side every day, how about it?"
After staying with Si Wuyue for a while, Shao Ci couldn't take it anymore. If he kept getting along with him every day, Shao Ci felt that he would go crazy.
Shao Ci immediately said: "But, but I am not very good in all aspects, and I am not worthy of the status of a superior servant."
"But didn't you say that you really want to stay by my side?" Si Wuyue's face turned cold instantly, "Could it be that what you just said was all lies?"
Shao Ci's heart was about to jump out of his chest, and he racked his brains and said: "That's not the case, I really want to stay by your side... But a high-ranking servant needs at least a foundation-building cultivation to do it. And I'm only in the Qi refining stage, I'm afraid I won't be able to convince others."
"It's true." Si Wuyue said with a very casual look, "Then I should think about it."
Shao Ci heaved a sigh of relief, it was simply too dangerous, and he felt that Si Wuyue would kill him if he didn't answer well.
"Let me help you." Si Wuyue smiled.
"?!" Shao Ci looked over in astonishment.
"I'll guide you and let you step into the foundation building stage." Si Wuyue said: "Then, you will be my servant. How about it?"
What the hell is Si Wuyue thinking? !
"?!" Shao Ci was frightened to death, but he still pretended to be surprised, and said, "This, how can this be, with your identity..."
"It's enough for me to be happy anyway." Si Wuyue smiled and said, "What about you? Are you willing?"
What else can Shao Ci do, if he dares to refuse Si Wuyue's request, he will die directly.
What's more, Si Wuyue's request is beneficial to his body, so that he can do daily tasks.
"Then everything is up to you." Shao Ci said.
"Very good." Si Wuyue took out a token and handed it to Shao Ci, "With this token, you can be teleported directly to the palace, just come to me every day when the token lights up."
Until he walked out of the hall, Shao Ci still hadn't fully digested the previous events.
What happened to this world, Si Wuyue not only didn't kill him directly, but even offered to guide him in cultivation, and even gave him a magic weapon to be transmitted directly.
Is there really such a thing as a pie in the sky in the world? ! No matter how you think about it, there is a problem.
Shao Ci almost thought that he was just dreaming.
Seeing that Shao Ci came out safely, the faces of the high-class servants outside the door were very surprised. They thought that what they saw next must be the appearance of Shao Ci being brutally tortured to death. Can come out alive.
Could it be that this person in front of him doesn't look very good, but in fact he is very powerful and has amazing eloquence, so he can please that adult
Immediately someone came to ask.
Although Si Wuyue didn't ask Shao Ci to keep it secret, Shao Ci would not be so stupid as to tell those things, so he pretended to hesitate and said: "Your Excellency seems to be in a good mood, so I don't care about anything." .”
The others immediately lost interest. It seemed that Shao Ci was just lucky, and in fact there was nothing special about him.
After Shao Ci returned to the foot of the mountain, the expressions of the other middle-level servants were even more exciting.
Zhang Zhangshi's eyes almost popped out the moment he saw Shao Ci. He simply didn't understand how Shao Ci survived a mission that would have killed him no matter what he thought about it this time.
In the face of these people's inquiries, Shao Ci also unified the previous reply, saying that he was lucky.
Everyone believed it directly, because they almost thought the same way. They couldn't imagine that the adult would look at such a weak chicken differently. They all regretted it. If they had known that the Mozun Lord was in a good mood, they would have gone directly to Now, how could there be a chance for a newcomer like Shao Ci.
If Shao Ci told the truth directly, these people would probably think Shao Ci was crazy.
Zhang Zhang thought that he did not expect Shao Ci to be so lucky, and he felt extremely resentful, thinking that if his nephew became a middle-level servant, then it would be his nephew who showed up in front of Lord Mozun today.
Zhang Zhang didn't think about it at all. If his nephew became a middle-class servant, he would let others go today in order not to let the other party go to death.
—
And in the palace at the top of the mountain.
After Shao Ci left, Si Wuyue showed meaningful eyes and stuck the jade slip on her forehead.
In this jade slip is the news of the person who was sent to the secret realm not long ago to check it. It is very clear that there is almost no living person who stayed on the second floor of the secret realm the day before.
Si Wuyue looked down.
On the ground where Shao Ci once knelt, the formation was flashing dark red light.
"You still came to me."
He slowly stroked the heart in his hand, as if stroking some lover.
"Since you don't want to reveal your original identity...it doesn't matter, then I will play with you."
"Play until you get tired of it, and at that time, you will completely become my property."
