I couldn't go undercover, so I had to marry a demon saint

Chapter 36 Swordsman, the sword never leaves the hand

Secluded Bamboo Forest.

The breeze floats.

Blowing up the man's hair in white, and raising the corners of the swordsman's clothes in coir raincoat.

Time seems to be frozen at this moment.

Finally, the sword edge was slightly tilted, and the cold touch finally made Shen Bulang's eyes move slightly.

"Help me go to the market to buy something."

[Trigger side mission: Help the abandoned disciples of the Taizhen Sect ([-])]

[Task difficulty: 2 stars]

【Mission description: If the heart is ashes, rekindle in the ashes.】

[Trigger Condition: None]

【Whether to accept】

【whether】

Even without looking back, Shen Bulang could guess that "?" must have appeared on that person's head, otherwise the mission would not have been triggered.

But to be able to encounter side missions, there is absolutely no reason to give up.

The side quests should be the ones with the most generous rewards besides the main quest, and it might involve the main quest. After all, Mrs. Bai’s main quest can only be triggered by completing the old man’s side quest ([-]).
As for the "Abandoned Disciple of Taizhen Sect" in the mission.
Could it be the Xiao Hanyi who was ordered to kill by the Righteous Nanyuan Alliance?
Shen Bulang thought for a moment and accepted the task. Although it violated his status as an undercover agent, the Qianyuan Sect would not provide him with cultivation points, but this task could!
As for the other undercover obstacles he may encounter, he can only say sorry to them and silence them. No one can stop him from doing side missions, right?

From Qian Yuanzong's attitude towards these undercover agents, he will no longer foolishly work for the sect.

Those who rank at the end of the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branches, such as his own Gui Wei, are the least valued undercover agents. When necessary, they will be sacrificed by the sect to complete certain tasks that involve no life or death.

This is Shen Bulang's guess.

After all, the previous case of "The Theft of the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion", together with the nine baits he dispatched inside, were all code-named the tail of the crane in the past two generations.

And the first few of each generation, as far as he knew, remained hidden until they became the deacons and elders of the Desolate Demon Sect, and gradually surfaced.

Before, he didn't understand why the undercover agents had to sort by their code names, they just called them by their names, but now that he thinks about it, this is the ranking of their importance to the sect!

The so-called righteous way is just a chess player who plays with their chess pieces
【1. Are you injured? (care)】

[2, don't think about it! (resistance to the death)]

【3. Okay, what do you want to buy? (obediently agree)]

2 is definitely not possible.

If it is 1, it is a bit unnecessary, how can you care about others after being threatened?
So choose 3.

"Okay, what do you want to buy?"

Shen Bulang asked softly and calmly.

The person behind seemed quite surprised by Shen Bulang's calm look, paused, and said a few words coldly: "Huixindan."

"I don't have a spirit stone on me."

Shen Bulang said truthfully.

"I'll give it to you, cough. You don't need to spend your own spirit stones."

While speaking, the man seemed to be involved in the injury, hissed lightly, couldn't help coughing, but quickly covered it up, and pressed the blade of the sword against his throat indifferently.

"There are 500 low-grade spirit stones in this storage bag, which is enough for you to buy a Huixin Pill on the black market."

Shen Bulang took the storage bag handed over by the man, and was about to ask if you just give it to me, are you afraid that I will take it and run away?

Then I heard him go on to say: "I have a dose of Duanchang San, and if there is no antidote within 2 hours, it will explode. Heck, you take it, hurry up!"

Shen Bulang frowned slightly, but at this moment of hesitation, the person behind him seemed impatient, the sword edge was slightly tilted, and a streak of blood bloomed on Shen Bulang's neck.

"You have no choice."

His tone was cold with killing intent.

But Shen Bulang could feel that his aura was slowly declining, and the aura was fluctuating, extremely chaotic, and the hand holding the sword was unsteady.

"Be careful, don't accidentally wipe my neck, then no one will buy you a heart pill."

"Do not talk nonsense!"

A lotus leaf bag was thrown over, and when I opened it, it was a pure white powder, fine and uniform in texture, with a slight fishy smell, no doubt it was Duanchang powder.

Shen Bulang pondered for a moment, returned to the option point, answered again, raised his eyebrows and said, "Are you injured?"

After the words fell, Xiao Hanyi's ashen eyes trembled, his breathing tightened slightly, his brows were concentrated, and he said in a deep voice: "It has nothing to do with you, it's not good for you to ask more, you just need to buy me something."

[Xiao Hanyi's friendliness increase: 5/100 (nodding acquaintance)]

A friendliness list similar to the favorability list appeared. In the first column, Xiao Hanyi's appearance, name, and friendliness appeared.

Shen Bulang's eyes froze, he really chose 1 instead of 3, he was wrong before!
There is even a friendliness system
"Okay, what do you want to buy?"

"Huixin Dan."

The same short response, the same emotionless tone, but this time with a trace of undetectable fluctuation.

Shen Bulang repeated: "I don't have a spirit stone on me."

"I'll give it to you, cough. You don't need to spend your own spirit stones."

Xiao Hanyi frowned and felt the situation in his body. It was very bad. Two completely different forces collided back and forth in his meridians. When he spoke, his blood surged up and he couldn't help but cough.

The bamboo hat on his head and the coir raincoat on his body trembled accordingly, making the smell of blood and dirt in the air even stronger.

But he still tensed his body, clenched the sapphire long sword in his hand, threw out a storage bag with the other hand, held his breath and gritted his teeth: "There are 500 low-grade spirit stones in this storage bag, which is enough for you to buy one on the black market." Hui Xindan."

At the same time, I was thinking about whether to use the remaining Duanchang Powder to ensure that this person bought the Huixin Pill for himself without running away and tipping off the news.

But soon, he saw that the person whose sword was on his neck stretched out his hands to clamp the hilt of his sword, moved away a little, and spoke first in an indifferent tone that made him feel unbelievable.

"Since you want me to buy it, then you can let me go, otherwise how can I buy it?"

Of course, Shen Bulang encountered options again, one of which was to wait and see what happened, and wait for Xiao Hanyi to continue to take the heartbroken powder, and the other was to take the initiative to attack, boldly clamping his sword, and preemptive strikes.

Shen Bulang's performance made Xiao Hanyi's mood fluctuate for no reason, he froze when he took out Duanchang powder, and said in a hoarse voice: "I just let you go, why don't you just run away?"

[1. I will not run away, I will help you buy a heart-warming pill (promise)]

[2. Since you want the Heart-Reviving Pill, your injuries must be serious. If I really run away with 500 low-grade spiritual stones, you may not have the energy to chase me. But I can use these spiritual stones to detoxify. Even if it is not enough, I can Temporarily curb toxicity and plan for the long term (rational)]

"Since you want to return to Xindan, you must be seriously injured. If I really run away with 500 low-grade spirit stones, you may not have the energy to chase me, and I can use these spirit stones to detoxify Islam. Even if it is not enough, it can temporarily contain it." Toxicity, take a long-term view.”

Shen Bulang calmly analyzed according to option 2.

Xiao Hanyi was silent, and after a while, he put down the hilt of the sword, and Duanchangsan also retracted the storage bag. It seemed that although he tried his best to contain the injury, his face was still pale with pain, and he barely stood still with the long sword half-supported on the ground.

"Why are you helping me? Do you know who I am?"

[1. Answer falsely and take advantage of his illness to kill him (give up the task and take advantage of him)]

[2. Unmoved and answer 'It doesn't matter who you are, but I will help you now' (continue the task)]

Shen Bulang seemed unaware of Xiao Hanyi's flaw. He did not move an inch and tilted his head slightly: "It doesn't matter who you are, but I will help you now."

[Xiao Hanyi's friendliness increase: 10/100 (nodding acquaintance)]

"You are very smart."

Xiao Hanyi grinned at the corners of his chapped mouth, lowered his head so that people could not see the expression under the bamboo hat clearly, then sat cross-legged, and began to recover his luck: "Although I don't know why you are willing to help me, but... I believe in you."

Swordsman, never leave your sword!
but--

Dang!

The blue long sword was put down beside him.

Shen Bulang tilted his head and said with emotion: "I will live up to your trust."

"Thank you."
