324 This Tianshui Sect disciple tried to bribe me
Chu Linfeng's filial piety is well known. Everyone in Tianshui Sect lit a candle in their hearts for the ancestor of the Chu family, hoping that the next time Taoist Zhuyue went to fight the ancestor of the Chu family, he could find a good time when the other party had just suffered heaven's punishment and let him see the dangers of the world.
Ren Yuan grew up in Kunlun Palace and had limited knowledge of the outside world. He asked in confusion, "It was you, Chu Linfeng, who made the promise, so why was it your ancestor who was punished by heaven in the end?"
Chu Linfeng: "Because the most important thing in the lending business is integrity. There are so many people who borrow money from our family, and we have to make sure they will pay it back. Our ancestors used themselves as the medium and the way of heaven as the witness to impose equal restrictions on both parties."
Ren Yuan expressed his doubts: "Can there be true equality between the borrower and the lender? I heard from the Palace Master that as long as one is treacherous enough, even if the Heavenly Dao is a witness, someone can find loopholes and exploit them."
The Palace Master of Kunlun Palace seems to be a person with a strong sense of financial precautions.
Thinking of how Taoist Zhuyue was in a trance due to all the debts he owed, Ning Yao silently praised the Kunlun Palace Master for his prudence.
Chu Linfeng waved away Ren Yuan's suspicious gaze and said, "Don't worry about whether there are loopholes or not. Anyway, equality on the surface has been achieved. Otherwise, why is our business the best among so many money houses doing lending? Isn't this all earned by our ancestors through divine punishment?"
Wu Xin suddenly felt that it would be promising to go to the Chu family to sell his "Sutra of Salvation".
Jiang Xin lay on Ning Yao's shoulder and listened to their conversation. She felt a little hungry, so she took out some snacks from the Sumeru bracelet.
She didn't know when some debris got on her palms, and she clapped her hands habitually to shake the debris off to the ground. Unexpectedly, these wood-colored debris emitted a faint glow after falling to the ground, and it was obvious at a glance that they were made of top-quality materials.
Ning Yao's instinct as a poor man made him subconsciously use his spiritual power to pick up these scraps.
Everyone gathered around curiously, thinking it looked familiar: "Why does it look a bit like the shuttle boat of the Giant Whale Tribe?"
Everyone present came from a large sect, and even if they were not expert at weapon cultivation, they had some knowledge of some rare materials.
They had just witnessed the shuttle boat being salvaged and saw some of the materials used to make the shuttle boat, so they were naturally able to recognize it.
Especially since these fragments are still sparkling even when broken into such pieces, they must be rare treasures among the finest materials.
But where did this thing come from?
After experiencing the great changes at the border between the two worlds, the shuttle boat was covered with cracks and looked like it would disintegrate at any time, but it remained stable until they got off the boat, and not even a piece of wood chip could be broken off.
How come there are so many sand-like debris left in Jiang Xin's hands?
Jiang Xin was also puzzled.
The little fellow bit the fragrant and soft red bean bun, tilted his head and thought for a long time, then said thoughtfully: "It should be when we came to the mainland, I was afraid that the boat would fall apart, so I was holding it and it got stained."
After saying that, Jiang Xin added carefully, "I didn't damage the shuttle boat of the giant whale tribe. The space tearing force over there would have become very strong over a period of time. If we hadn't caught up with it, the shuttle boat between the two worlds would have been destroyed and everyone would have died."
[Ah, in that case, should the Giant Whale Tribe thank me for helping them preserve the main materials of the shuttle boat? 】
[Since the big whale has given us all gifts, we won’t ask them for any reward this time. 】
[Now they just need to gather some auxiliary materials and they can find a repairman to repair the shuttle boat. 】
[Oh my, now that I think about it, this explosion of space-tearing force happened to coincide with our passing by. It must be their lucky break. 】
[There is still some spiritual power of Junior Brother left on these debris. It seems that Junior Brother's soul leaving his body was also related to the explosion of space-tearing force. 】
Jiang Xin sighed repeatedly, took out an empty porcelain bottle and put all the debris floating in the air into it, then jumped out of Ning Yao's arms nimbly and ran to the giant whale cultivator in the Void Refinement Stage who was still standing there, feeling distressed about the loss.
"Uncle, this is for you." Jiang Xin stood on tiptoe and handed over the small porcelain bottle in her hand.
The Giant Whale Clan monk took it without knowing why, opened it and took a look, his expression changed slightly: "This is..."
Jiang Xin said softly, "It's the essence of the broken shuttle boat. Adding it to the refining process can increase the success rate. I'm returning these things to you. If the old doesn't go, the new won't come. Don't be too sad."
Seeing that the other party was still stunned, Jiang Xin suspected that he was too sad because the shuttle was damaged, so he comforted him, "Don't be sad anymore, I bless you all to succeed in this refining."
These words seemed to carry a magical power. As soon as Jiang Xing said it, the Giant Whale Clan cultivator vaguely felt a protective force falling on him.
The feeling was fleeting, and when he wanted to investigate it carefully, it had disappeared without a trace, as if the sensation just now was just an illusion.
By the time he came back to his senses, Jiang Xin had already skipped back to his fellow brothers on his short legs, happily biting a red bean bun as he walked towards the border building with everyone else.
The small porcelain bottle in his hand felt icy to the touch, which made the Giant Whale Clan cultivator sigh in his heart: It seems that the disciples of the Immortal Sect are not as worthless as the rumors say.
After praising them for once, the Giant Whale Clan monk remembered an important matter and hurriedly called out to them, "Please stay!"
But it was too late.
As soon as he opened his mouth, Ning Yao and his group had already stepped into the border building. Even Chu Linfeng, who was at the end of the group, disappeared at the door and did not hear his voice.
The words of the giant whale monk were stuck in his throat before he could finish speaking.
The border building was full of cultivators from the Great Zhou, and even if he wanted to help them, he couldn't.
They hoped that the Great Zhou would spare the Tianshui Sect because it was their neighbor.
…
The Great Zhou was a relatively traditional dynasty of cultivation. The border building was very grand and there were many clerks handling entry and exit procedures, so there was no need to wait in long queues.
Lin Yan used fortune-telling to find out the team that would take the shortest time, and soon it was their turn.
He took out the exit certificate issued by the Giant Whale Clan and his own identity certificate. Seeing that the clerk behind the rosewood desk was still stretching his hand towards him with his palm facing up, he consciously took out a bag of spirit stones and placed it on the clerk.
When this thing was put down, the clerk's hand seemed to be scalded by boiling water. He shivered with fear and raised his head in dissatisfaction and asked, "What do you mean?"
Lin Yan picked up the bag of spirit stones on the table calmly and stuffed it into his hand with a smile: "It's just a little gift."
"I don't mean that!" The other party shook his hand away in dissatisfaction, as if the bag of spirit stones was something extremely ominous.
Jiang Xin ran to Lin Yan unhappily to protect him: "Why are you bullying my second brother?"
The clerk glanced at her, not taking this unskilled girl seriously, and pointed at Lin Yan and shouted to the second floor: "General, this disciple of the Tianshui Sect tried to bribe me to get away with it!"
Lin Yan: “???”
Before he could explain, a halberd rushed out from the second floor and stood in front of him, and the pressure of the fusion period enveloped all of them.
