Start a Core Pod

Chapter 1206 It’s all the same (it’s hot and I don’t want to go out)

“Lin Family Fort Master Lin Tiannan has met all the immortal masters here.”

The person who appeared in front of everyone was a square-looking man with a beard who looked very bold. He raised his hand and saluted Duanmu Huai and others, and Duanmu Huai also nodded slightly.

"You're welcome, Lord Linbao, let's keep the story short. We originally planned to enter Suzhou City today, but we saw this notice at the city gate. I heard that there are monsters causing trouble in Suzhou City? Is this possible?"

"exactly."

Lin Tiannan motioned for everyone to sit down and watch tea, and then spoke.

"To be honest, in the past few years, a monster has set up a nest near Suzhou City. It comes out to arrest people at every turn, which makes the people panic. I have also posted posters several times, inviting heroes from all walks of life to come and subdue the monster. Slaying demons. Unfortunately, the demon is extraordinary and no one can match it. Many knights have not been heard from since they went to the Hidden Dragon Cave, and their life and death are uncertain... Not only that, but recently I heard that there was a corpse in Blackwater Town. The people are displaced and have nowhere to go. If you immortal masters are willing to slay the demons and give the people of Suzhou a peaceful life, I, Lin Tiannan, will be grateful."

“No need to express my gratitude, but I have a small request.”

 “Master, please speak.”

"To be honest, these few around me are not from the Central Plains, but...well, women from foreign countries."

"oh…………"

Hearing Duanmuhuai's answer, Lin Tiannan was stunned for a moment. Then he showed a curious expression and looked at the people next to him. He had already noticed that these people were not dressed like people from the Central Plains, but he did not expect that they actually came from outside the territory...

“We have traveled thousands of miles to come to your land because we have something to discuss with the local Immortal Sect. I wonder if Lord Linbao knows if there is any Immortal Sect in this area?”

 “This is easy!”

Hearing this, Lin Tiannan was overjoyed and patted his chest.

"To be honest, I and Dugu Sword Master of the Shushan Immortal Sword Sect have been brothers for more than ten years. If you immortal masters are really sure of destroying the monster, I will definitely help you contact Shushan."

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　…

Hearing this word, Duanmu Huai's brow twitched slightly.

 “Hmm? Is there any problem?”

"No, I just have a small question. This monster has been doing evil here for many years, and now there are corpses causing trouble. Since Lord Limbao has an old relationship with the Shushan sect, why not ask him to come forward to help?"

“Hey, I also went to look for him, but I was told that Dugu Sword Master was in retreat, so I was powerless.”

"Oh I got it."

There is no other way, seclusion is really one of the most disgusting settings in the world of Xianxia. To put it bluntly, what is the difference between this and a dead house? You hide in your room and don't go out even if the sky falls. No one knows what you are doing in there. No one notices you even if you die. If it were Duanmu Huai, his temperament would definitely not tolerate seclusion or anything like that, and he would break the door open.

 “Then it’s settled.”

Duanmu Huai took a sip of tea and then stood up.

“We will help the people of Suzhou eliminate monsters in return...”

 “I will send a message to the Shushan Sect.”

Lin Tiannan also stood up and spoke.

“Although the Shushan sect has always been indifferent to worldly affairs, the immortal masters have come from afar, so I think they will be interested in seeing them.”

It's best to have one, if not I would just smash it in.

Duanmuhuai chuckled.

 “Farewell.”

As soon as he walked out of the gate of Lin Mansion, everyone impatiently gathered around him.

 “What were you talking about just now?”

"To put it simply, I made a deal with that guy. I will help them eliminate the demons that are harming the people nearby, and he will contact the local immortal sect through his channels."

Duanmuhuai briefly explained his conversation with Lin Tiannan, while An blinked in confusion.

“That person can contact the magic organization here? If that’s the case, then why do you need us to help eliminate the demons? Can’t we just ask the other party to send someone?”

“Because cultivators are a very cold-blooded group of people by nature.”

 Duanmuhuai shrugged his shoulders.

"You have to know that the essence of cultivating immortals is to let yourself ascend to immortality, that is, there is nothing else but yourself. Therefore, immortal cultivators will rarely care too much about other people. Whether it is love, friendship, or family ties, they will become immortals. Obstacles to becoming an immortal. There are even people who kill their wives to become enlightened..."

 “Killing your wife to preach?”

“In order to prove his determination to pursue Taoism, he killed his wife to show that no one can stop him from seeking Taoism and becoming an immortal, not even his wife.”

"Why………"

 Hearing this, the faces of the girls changed drastically.

 “Why does it sound like a villain...”

“In short, don’t think too highly of these cultivators.”

Duanmuhuai snorted softly.

"Most of them don't care about ordinary people. There is such a big thing like here, but for the immortal cultivators, it has nothing to do with them. They will not save people, because strictly speaking, they They are completely different from this group of mortals, and the reason why these immortal cultivators often eliminate evil spirits is not to protect human beings, but more because the evil spirits will cultivate through killing people, and when they grow up, they will become a serious problem for the immortal cultivators. ”

As he spoke, Duanmuhuai spread his hands.

"So you understand? Not everyone is like a magical girl who draws a sword to help when there is an injustice. We may even encounter evil cultivators who take pleasure in killing people and stealing souls, and you must be careful of being robbed by them." "robbery?"

"That's right. If they like something, they will tell you, this thing is destined for me, how about giving it to me? If you don't want it, he will just grab it."

 “Uh...that’s okay too?”

 Hearing this, the girls were dumbfounded. This was too beyond their understanding.

"Old monsters who have lived for hundreds and thousands of years have long thought differently from ordinary people. So if the other party attacks you, just beat them to death. Oh, remember, they must be beaten to death - of course they won't be beaten to death. Okay, it’s also good to let them go so we have more people to kill.”

 “There are more people to kill???”

 An was confused.

"Yes, the sects in this world are actually very similar to schools. Each cultivator has his own teacher. If he is beaten, he will go to the teacher to cry, and the latter will help his apprentice. Then if the teacher is beaten, , then the teacher’s teacher will take action, and if the teacher’s teacher is beaten, then the teacher’s teacher’s teacher will take action…”

 “Stop, stop, stop…!”

An hurriedly stopped Duanmu Huai's chatter, while Mu Geng and others next to him had their eyes spinning in circles.

 “Why are there so many teachers?”

“We have lived for hundreds or thousands of years. Isn’t it strange to have a lot of disciples and descendants?”

　　　…………”

 Strictly speaking, it seems, indeed, not surprising at all?

 “I feel like this world is really in trouble...”

At this moment, An also found that it seemed that this place was not as wonderful as he had imagined.

“But if you put it this way, we need their help to save the magical girl. Isn’t there no chance? After all, they can’t even save the people here.”

Mu Geng also said that she didn't know what it meant to be a cultivator or not, but at least judging from Duanmu Huai's description, this group of cultivators didn't seem to be good people.

"They don't save mortals because mortals can't bring them any benefits."

 Duanmu Huai snorted lightly.

“We are here to make a deal, which means that as long as the reward is generous enough, he will be willing to help us.”

 “Remuneration?”

“That’s right, for example, if their own lives... died before they could transform into immortals, wouldn’t it be a great loss?”

 Hearing this, everyone was speechless.

This is also a naked threat.

"Of course, this is the last resort. If the other party is willing to talk nicely, I will show corresponding sincerity."

Duanmu Huai didn't lie. When he traveled to the west world, Duanmu Huai robbed houses and killed so many monsters and looted so many caves. Naturally, he also collected a lot of good things. It's just a pity that he is not very well-educated and can't understand those **** ghost talismans at all. Adhering to the principle of professional people doing professional things, Duanmu Huai thinks it's better to use them for the immortal sects in this world.

At least they know how to use these things, but Duanmuhuai really doesn’t understand them at all.

Although Duanmuhuai brought this topic aside with a smile, the others looked at each other and shook their heads silently.

Well, at least this is definitely not a joke.

“It’s meaningless to talk about this now. Let’s wait until we see the Shushan Sect to discuss the specific situation.”

As he spoke, Duanmuhuai walked forward.

“What we have to do now is to go to the Hidden Dragon Cave and destroy those monsters...”

Then Duanmuhuai stopped.

　　　　???”

Looking at Duanmuhuai who was parked there, the girls had questions on their faces, while Duanmuhuai turned his head and looked at them.

 “Where is the Hidden Dragon Cave?”

　　　…………”

 Even if you ask us this question, we don’t know!

 “Are you going to Hidden Dragon Cave?”

Just when Duanmu Huai was considering whether to arrest a passerby for questioning, a voice suddenly sounded. Duanmu Huai and others turned around and saw a black-haired girl wearing a white outfit on the eaves not far away. He was staring at them curiously with his hands on his hips.

“Are you the immortal masters from the Western Regions?”

 “That’s right, are you...”

“My name is Lin Yueru, and my father is Lin Tiannan.”

“Oh…then Miss Lin Yueru, what do you mean…”

“I think you are very interesting, so I decided to go to Hidden Dragon Cave with you.”

As he spoke, Lin Yueru jumped down from the eaves and landed steadily on the ground.

“You don’t know where the Hidden Dragon Cave is, then come with me!”
