Lonely Immortal

Chapter 138 Explanation

Zhang Zhiwen actually wanted to use the Transfiguration Technique, but there were so many people at the moment, so he really couldn't use this spell. However, if he didn't use this spell, he would probably be recognized by Lin Mingdong and his sister, and Lin Mingdong had seen his cultivation level of the fourth stage of Qi Refining, which seemed to be a bit troublesome.

Therefore, Zhang Zhiwen secretly retreated while hoping that they would pick good people as soon as possible and leave here, so that he, Zhang Zhiwen, would be fine. However, it seemed that there were quite a lot of casual cultivators in front, and it should not be Zhang Zhiwen's turn. Zhang Zhiwen had shrunk to the back at this moment. There were not many people here, and these people were still squeezing to the front.

Don't think that these casual cultivators don't know the pros and cons of being selected as followers. In fact, they know better than anyone else. It's just that it's not difficult to see from their eager eyes that even if they are followers, even if they may become cannon fodder, it is still a glimmer of hope. If they continue to do nothing, they may not be able to stay in Feixian City, and finally go outside to be slaughtered at will.

There are very few female cultivators among the independent cultivators here, but even these few female cultivators are scrambling to become followers of the children of the four major families. To put it nicely, they are followers, and to put it bluntly, they are personal maids, but they still look eager, and even more eager to become followers than male cultivators.

Seeing this, Zhang Zhiwen certainly knows what is going on. Most independent cultivators in Feixian City are struggling to survive, and he, Zhang Zhiwen, seems to be no exception.

Although the casual cultivators were eager to become followers, they didn't dare to talk nonsense. They just secretly pushed forward and didn't dare to do anything wrong. They were really humble, and under their humble appearance, they hid all kinds of schemes. Zhang Zhiwen saw many casual cultivators secretly fighting each other. The high-level cultivators naturally pushed the low-level cultivators to the back, and the strong-bodied naturally pushed the weak-bodied cultivators to the side. Therefore, even if they were almost unable to survive, they were still desperately fighting for the quota of followers and fighting each other secretly. The elder naturally saw these situations, but he didn't care at all, as if all of this was normal. The family members didn't care either. They naturally wanted to choose casual cultivators with higher cultivation and more experienced appearances.

Therefore, those female cultivators are not very popular. Except for some female disciples of the family, there are still few family disciples who choose female cultivators as followers. These family disciples can break through to the seventh level of Qi Refining. They are the backbone of the family. How could such disciples waste such an important opportunity for a mere woman? This is their first time to go out for training. It is a matter of great importance. Whether the training is successful often determines their future status and identity in the family. Status and identity are resources, so how could they destroy their future for these female cultivators?

Therefore, most family disciples choose those casual cultivators who are about 30 years old or no more than 40 years old, and most of them have reached the third level of Qi Refining. Such casual cultivators are experienced and have suitable cultivation. As followers, they are naturally the best. Moreover, such casual cultivators have no temper. They have been governed honestly under various controls in Feixian City, so they are obedient when ordered.

Seeing this, Zhang Zhiwen was relieved. It was highly likely that he would not be chosen, which was good. He did not want to be unlucky and become someone else's slave. Otherwise, when he went out, he would inevitably kill the other party, which was a bit unfair. After all, there was no grudge.

Just as Zhang Zhiwen was observing the situation, someone suddenly shouted: "Hey, come out!"

Zhang Zhiwen realized that someone was calling him. After all, the voice was calling him. When he looked up, he saw that it was Lin Mingdong. Zhang Zhiwen didn't know what to say. He was hiding so far behind, how could this guy see him?

"Don't hide, Zhiwen, come here." Lin Mingdong shouted Zhang Zhiwen's name at once, which did not allow Zhang Zhiwen to dodge. Zhang Zhiwen had no choice but to go out.

Lin Mingdong seemed quite happy to see Zhang Zhiwen, but he was a little puzzled and asked: "Little brother, why did your cultivation level drop?"

Although Zhang Zhiwen didn't want to see Lin Mingdong, he was also prepared, so he said: "Oh, don't mention it, it was that old man who harmed me. He gave me something to eat. I almost went crazy overnight, so my cultivation level dropped."

Lin Mingdong was shocked when he heard it, and asked with concern: "Are you okay now?"

Zhang Zhiwen didn't expect Lin Mingdong to care about him so much, but he thought that it should be Lin Mingdong's love for the whole family, and it should be related to the little girl Xiaoli, but Zhang Zhiwen waved his hand quickly: "It's okay, it's okay, thank you Brother Lin for worrying about it."

"Hey, it's nothing, but you are so brave, you also believe that kind of person? There are few good people in the black market, don't eat things given by others in the future." Lin Mingdong didn't seem to doubt it. This kind of thing seems to be quite common. Some people eat poisonous fruits and even die. What's the big deal about losing some cultivation?

Zhang Zhiwen naturally nodded in agreement. He tried to keep a low profile so that Lin Mingdong would not ask him to be his follower. Fortunately, Lin Mingdong seemed to have found a follower. This person followed Lin Mingdong. He was about thirty years old and followed him obediently. Seeing that Zhang Zhiwen was so familiar with Lin Mingdong, he did not dare to say a word. Obviously, this person was quite smart. Generally, smart people don't talk much.

"By the way, are you here to be a follower too?" Lin Mingdong asked.

Zhang Zhiwen came here, so he must have felt this way, and Zhang Zhiwen couldn't explain it, so he could only acquiesce. But Lin Mingdong became a little happy. He patted Zhang Zhiwen on the shoulder: "That's just right. How about you?" Just go and be a follower to Mingyue, right? My sister, Xiaoli, When I was little, I was worried that Mingyue might not want to follow me anymore. Even if I find a strange man, it would be inconvenient. Now it’s okay. I think you are a good boy. Xiaoli has served Mingyue. You also happened to serve me, haha, what a fate, you two are really a perfect match."

Zhang Zhiwen was speechless. This thing was absolutely unreliable. How could he be Mingyue's follower? Will the secret be revealed sooner or later? If Mingyue knew his identity, the two of them would be in some trouble. Now that the limelight is tightening and the Zhao family is chasing him, Zhang Zhiwen himself can't protect himself. I'm afraid that it will only affect Lin Mingyue.

So Zhang Zhiwen thought about politely rejecting Lin Mingdong. It was still too late, but suddenly a voice came again: "Brother, what are you doing here?"

When he heard this voice, there was no need to guess, it was Lin Mingyue coming.

Sure enough, Lin Mingyue came over, and she was alone. Just as Lin Mingdong said, Lin Mingyue didn't seem to want to bring an entourage, which was in line with her character. Furthermore, the female cultivator was gone and was taken away. How can the remaining male cultivators serve Lin Mingyue properly?

"Mingyue, you came just in time. I was worried that it would be inconvenient for you to go out alone. No, I will introduce you to someone..."

When Lin Mingdong saw Lin Mingyue coming, he immediately planned to introduce Zhang Zhiwen to Lin Mingyue. Lin Mingdong felt that Zhang Zhiwen was a very reliable brother, and he was also a young man that Xiaoli liked, and his character should not be bad.

When Lin Mingyue came over, she saw Zhang Zhiwen at first sight. The moment she saw Zhang Zhiwen, Lin Mingyue was obviously stunned for a moment. Then when she heard Lin Mingdong's words, she came back to her senses and couldn't help but said: "Zhang Zhiwen, right?" ?”

When Lin Mingdong heard this, he was suddenly surprised: "Mingyue, do you recognize him?"

But Lin Mingdong suddenly came back to his senses and nodded: "That's right, Xiaoli is getting along with him, so you naturally know about it, haha, this is better, and there is no need for me to introduce him."

Lin Mingyue was confused by these words, and Zhang Zhiwen didn't dare to say a word, because all this was what Lin Mingdong thought was self-righteous. He didn't have anything happen to Xiaoli. Wasn't it what Lin Mingdong thought?

Sure enough, Lin Mingyue looked at Lin Mingdong, then at Zhang Zhiwen, and then suddenly smiled and said: "That's it, but why don't I know about him and Xiaoli?"

"Don't you know?" Lin Mingdong was suddenly confused.

Lin Mingyue did not explain, but nodded and continued: "But he is a suitable candidate. He rejected me before and was unwilling to work as an errand for our Lin Mansion. What do you say this time?"

As soon as these words came out, Lin Mingdong didn't know what was going on, but Lin Mingyue obviously didn't intend to explain, and just stared at Zhang Zhiwen. She still remembered that Zhang Zhiwen rejected her in public before. This thing was too impressive. Of course, she just felt Interestingly, she may not really intend to let Zhang Zhiwen be his follower. After all, there are differences between men and women. She, Lin Mingyue, doesn't really like having male cultivators around her.

Zhang Zhiwen thought for a while, clasped his fists and said, "I'm sorry, Miss Lin, I have other things to do, so I'll take my leave."

With that said, Zhang Zhiwen planned to run away. If he didn't leave now, when would he wait?

At this time, Lin Mingdong and Lin Mingyue were a little stunned, because they felt that Zhang Zhiwen came here just to be a follower?

However, Lin Mingyue quickly came to her senses and was still a little angry. She couldn't help but stop Zhang Zhiwen: "Wait a minute."

Zhang Zhiwen had no choice but to stop.

Lin Mingyue came to him, stared into Zhang Zhiwen's eyes, and then looked a little confused. This appearance made Zhang Zhiwen feel a little uneasy. He, Zhang Zhiwen, was always very calm in situations, but he was so calm when facing Lin Mingyue. He was a little nervous about his eyes, mainly because he was afraid of being recognized by her.

Lin Mingyue withdrew her gaze, but showed a faint smile and said: "There are some things that I really want to ask you, especially about you and Xiaoli, and the matter of the Solitary Fairy Fruit. Do you think you should give it to me?" What’s a good explanation for me?”

Zhang Zhiwen sighed inwardly. He knew that Lin Mingyue was suspicious. Lin Mingyue was very smart. If several things were connected together, he would definitely doubt his identity.

At this point, if he still insists on leaving, that's no problem, but Lin Mingyue must know his identity. Isn't this a self-inflicted crime? Otherwise, why would Zhang Zhiwen leave? Isn't this panic?

Therefore, Zhang Zhiwen could only clasp his fists and say: "Okay, I'll give you an explanation, but I don't know what Miss Lin wants to know?"
