Cautiously Cultivating Immortality in a Strange World

Chapter 26: See you again

Views:

Zhang Mazi didn't expect Chen Lin to refuse, and refused so straightforwardly. He suddenly looked a little angry.

He thought that the conditions he offered this time were already high enough and that Chen Lin would be grateful, but he did not expect that he would be so ungrateful.

"If that's the case, then forget it. Daoyou is a man with his own opinions."

As the owner of a business, he still believed that harmony brings wealth. Although he was unhappy in his heart, he did not show it too obviously.

However, the people around looked at Chen Lin with strange eyes and an expression of regret.

After this incident, Chen Lin didn't want to buy anything here anymore and turned away.

At this moment, Zhang Mazi suddenly stiffened his neck, squinted his eyes and sneered, "Humph, you really don't know how to appreciate my kindness. I wanted to give you a way out, but since you don't want it, then wait to be weird..."

Halfway through his words, he seemed to realize something and quickly stopped talking.

Then, he walked behind the counter with an expressionless face.

Chen Lin walked out of Zhang's Company without stopping, but he was secretly surprised.

Although Zhang Mazi did not finish his words, it seemed as if he knew of the existence of the strangeness from what he said.

If this is the case, it means that the other party has a high status in the Zhang family.

But the Zhang family is still recruiting talents at this time. Do they want to take them away together

According to Yu Yuehai, if they leave, the fewer people there are, the better, so as to avoid being noticed by monsters.

He also felt that it made sense. He himself was the one connected by the red line after the strange shadow appeared.

It is not known whether the Zhang family did this because they did not understand the situation or if there were other reasons.

But if too many monks leave the city, unrest is certain to occur.

As he walked, he was thinking about how the situation would develop in the future, whether Yu Yuehai could successfully build the foundation, whether he could successfully cut the red line and leave, and whether he would be completely destroyed by that strange discovery.

After thinking for a while, he felt that these were not things he could change, and he suddenly felt too insignificant.

I am the fish on the chopping board, it's a terrible feeling.

He came to Duobao Pavilion in a depressed mood and bought some alchemy materials and a flying sword.

The previous Xiaoyao Sword was broken by Yu Yuehai, so he had to buy a new one.

The flying sword was more than one foot long, light silver in color, and had no name. It was just an ordinary, low-grade magical weapon.

It's not that he didn't want to buy a good one, it's just that he didn't have many spirit stones on him. The fifty medium-grade spirit stones he got from Lu Li last time had been almost used up.

He originally wanted to buy spells and magical tools to conceal his cultivation level, but he failed to do so.

Even so, he didn't want to make money by making talismans during this period. The most urgent task was to quickly improve his strength so as to deal with unknown dangers.

So he planned to use the Enlightenment Pill to review all the spells in the spell detailed explanation.

It’s a pity that there is no storage bag, otherwise I could refine more thunder beads.

Chen Lin once again lamented the feeling of poverty, which was really restricted in every way.

This is because he has the natural ability to cheat. The situation for ordinary cultivators is even more miserable. No wonder the original owner has not made any progress in his cultivation for twenty years.

After buying things, he walked back.

After thinking about it all the way, he has figured it out. Now, staying with Yu Yuehai is the best option, so he decided to wait patiently for the other party to successfully build his foundation and no longer have any other ideas.

"Wait a moment, fellow Taoist!"

Just as he was about to walk out of the market, a figure suddenly came to Chen Lin's side, causing him to immediately hold the flying sword and look over vigilantly.

"Who are you and why are you stopping me?"

Seeing that it was a female cultivator he had never seen before, Chen Lin couldn't help but ask questions in confusion.

But the other party was only at the third level of Qi training, so he let down his guard a little.

"Fellow Daoist, can you please spare me a moment to talk?"

The female cultivator looked at the cultivator who was setting up a stall in the distance, and greeted him in a low voice, motioning Chen Lin to walk away from her.

Seeing that Chen Lin did not move, the female cultivator whispered, "Weapon Refining Manual."

Chen Lin's eyes flashed, and he looked the female cultivator up and down, with a look of realization in his eyes.

It turned out that the other party was the female cultivator who had sold him the broken weapon-refining books in the inner city before. Although her appearance had changed, she was also malnourished and her aura was very similar.

"It's you. What do you want to do with me? And how did you recognize me?"

He had also changed his appearance at the beginning, but unexpectedly he was recognized at the first sight, which surprised Chen Lin.

Although he was surprised, Chen Lin still walked a distance away from the other party and came to the outside of the market.

The reason why he cooperated was that when they were in the inner city before, the other party was at the second level of Qi training, and now he is at the third level. It doesn't look like he just broke through. He should have used some spells or magic tools to conceal his cultivation level. He wanted to see if he could get it at a low price.

"Now tell me, how did you recognize me?"

There was no one around, so Chen Lin's voice became a little louder.

The female cultivator first bowed her hands, then smiled and said, "Don't doubt me, fellow Daoist. I am just very sensitive to smells, and I have a deep impression of you, so I recognized you when I met you."

Chen Lin was stunned.

He didn't expect this to be the reason.

This person really has all kinds of abilities. You should pay attention to this aspect when disguising your identity in the future.

"So what's the matter with you calling me?"

Chen Lin did not ask directly about concealing his cultivation level.

The female cultivator hesitated for a moment, bowed deeply and said, "I am Xu Ruolan, and I have a favor to ask of you."

Chen Lin frowned, not thinking that he had anything to ask for help, but he still asked, "What's the matter?"

The female cultivator hesitated again, and then said with a determined look: "Do you need a Taoist partner for dual cultivation?"

"What!"

Chen Lin thought he had heard wrongly.

With his current figure and appearance, there are still female cultivators who would approach him

After saying this, the female cultivator calmed down and said seriously, "Daoyou did not hear wrongly. If you are interested, I am willing to form a Taoist couple with you. I am only 28 years old this year. Even if my cultivation is lower than yours, you will not suffer any loss."

Chen Lin stared at the other person, wondering what he was up to.

love at first sight

He's not that narcissistic yet.

If he had the cultivation level of the late stage of Qi training, it would be possible that the opponent would approach him on his own initiative, but he was still a little short of that at the middle stage of Qi training.

Even though Zhang Mazi wanted to introduce him to a female cultivator from the Zhang family, that was marrying into the family's family, which was not much different from selling one's body.

"Tell me what you want, or I'll leave!"

Chen Lin didn't want to play hide-and-seek with the other party, he still had a lot of things to do.

Seeing Chen Lin's attitude, Xu Ruolan realized that he was being a bit reckless. She pursed her lips and said, "Daoyou, do you have any elixirs that can improve your cultivation? Or do you have any channels to buy elixirs?"

Chen Lin suddenly understood.

So that's why.

If you want to buy elixirs, just say you want to buy elixirs. What's the point of having a dual cultivation partner? Do you think you can get something for nothing

Chen Lin secretly complained, frowned and said: "How can you be sure that I have elixirs? Now all the elixirs in the city are controlled by the five major families. I am a small casual cultivator, how can I buy them?"

Xu Ruolan smiled slightly upon hearing this and said, "Daoyou, why are you so modest? If it weren't for the power of the elixir, at your age, it would be difficult for you to break through two levels in succession and enter the middle stage of Qi training!"
