Since Wen Xing disappeared from the East City Market
, it seems that the fun of the market has been reduced by half. Most of the vendors are just ordinary people. They work hard to practice and sell goods, just like ordinary people, just trying to survive.
Immortality is too far away from them.
This makes Lin Jiang feel out of tune with them. Even the current Lin Jiang is also a member of the ordinary people.
"Punch a card when you have nothing to do"
"System: Lifespan check-in system
host:
Lin Jiang Lifespan: 125/37500"
Lin Jiang looked at the system's lifespan balance and was a little numb. The thousand years of lifespan consumed before was insignificant to him.
"I don't know if there is any skill that can give people lifespan, then I will be rich"
Lin Jiang sometimes thinks like this. There are countless skills in the world of immortal cultivation. If there is a skill that can give people lifespan, then he will be rich. He can make a fortune with this, and he will be the richest in the world of immortal cultivation.
However, Lin Jiang had never heard of this technique. He had heard that there were some magic techniques that could absorb other people's lifespans, but unfortunately he didn't need this technique.
"Fellow Daoist Lin, are you going home?"
Seeing that there was no business, Lin Jiang was ready to go home. The vendors on both sides greeted Lin Jiang.
Lin Jiang simply responded. He didn't have a deep relationship with them. They were just nodding acquaintances. He just said hello and left. Lin Jiang also knew that after he left, his stall would be occupied by two other people. They would not pay him rent like Zhang Ruifeng did before. They were just freeloaders. Lin Jiang ignored them.
Lin Jiang usually didn't go home directly, but would go shopping in the big market or other crowded places. If someone was following him, it would be easy to get rid of him. This was Lin Jiang's habit for many years.
He had done this countless times before and never found the stalker. But today, Lin Jiang always felt that there was a gaze staring at him from behind. This feeling was very obvious, which made Lin Jiang feel heavy in his heart. He didn't know whether the real culprit behind the scenes had targeted him again, or when he accidentally showed off his wealth and was targeted.
This made Lin Jiang even more afraid to go home. He kept wandering outside until after dark, and the feeling of being followed still remained.
"It's impossible not to go home all the time. Who are these people?"
Lin Jiang kept analyzing in his mind. He didn't know who was following him, but it was impossible for him not to go home. Although there was no curfew in Yunzhong City, cultivators would also be tired and need a place to rest. The
most important thing was that if he didn't go home all the time, it would definitely alert the people behind him, so Lin Jiang gritted his teeth and turned back home. With the isolation of the courtyard wall and the formation, the feeling finally disappeared.
"What's going on? Why are you being followed? Is it related to the real culprit behind Mo Lin's group before?"
Lin Jiang asked again. He hoped that the stalker this time was related to Mo Lin. He was not afraid of the enemy appearing, but he was afraid that they would not appear.
"The big and small sand sculptures haven't woken up yet."
Lin Jiang glanced at the spirit beast bag. The big and small sand sculptures have been sleeping for a year and haven't woken up yet, but they are alive and their breath is getting stronger and stronger.
"As long as I stay in the city, those people won't dare to do anything at will. Don't go to the black market in the future. It's too remote. There are murders in the city, but they don't dare to do it publicly."
Lin Jiang made a decision. As long as he didn't leave the city, no one dared to kill people publicly. The rules of Yunzhong City were extremely strict. Rules were the most precious thing in Yunzhong City.

"Still"
A few days later, in the East City Market, Lin Jiang felt the surveillance again, but there were too many people in the market, and he couldn't tell who it was.
Lin Jiang pretended not to know and continued to sell his talismans. After a few years in the East City Market, Lin Jiang once again became a little famous, and old customers often came to buy talismans.
"Friend Lin, don't you really consider joining my team? We have thirteen people in our team, all of whom are in the late stage of Qi training. Moreover, we have been in Yunzhong City for decades and have a good reputation. We are all reliable people."
Today, an old customer came to buy talismans again, and at the same time proposed that Lin Jiang join his team. His team has thirteen people, all of whom are elites in the Qi training stage, and they have a good reputation in the Qi training circle in Yunzhong City.
"Chen Daoyou, forget it. I'm used to being alone."
Lin Jiang shook his head and refused. Chen Daoyou had invited him several times and even told him about his team several times, but Lin Jiang still refused.
He was not worried about how these people would treat him. He didn't take a group of Qi training period seriously, not to mention that their reputation was indeed good. He was worried that what they did would bring danger.
Chen Daoyou's team was similar to other casual cultivators in Yunzhong City. They didn't have a fixed income and did everything, such as escorting, treasure hunting, or hunting monsters in the mountains.
These things were extremely dangerous. Even though Chen Daoyou and his team were elites in the Qi training period, many people had died in the past few years. Lin Jiang knew of two people alone.
Lin Jiang did not lack opportunities to make money. His biggest advantage was that he had time. Even if he only made a thousand spirit stones a year, he could rely on time to surpass the wealth of most Qi training period cultivators. So Lin Jiang would not take risks at all. He just had to survive. He survived to the extreme.
"That's a pity. If you join, our team will be much stronger. It's not easy for us to practice as independent cultivators. We should stick together so that we can have a chance to build our foundation."
Chen Daoyou said. It's too difficult for independent cultivators. All the money they earn is invested in practice and daily expenses. It's very difficult to save tens of thousands of spirit stones.
That's why they decided to stick together and gather everyone's strength so that they can build their foundation one by one. Unfortunately, Lin Jiang didn't agree.
"Sorry"
"It's okay. Our fate hasn't come yet,"
Chen Daoyou said. He also understood Lin Jiang's refusal. There are not many people who have the ability of a first-class top-grade talisman painter in the late stage of Qi training. It's not difficult for those who have this ability to make money. There's no need to live like them, licking blood on the edge of a knife.
Chen Daoyou took the talisman and left. Lin Jiang also closed his stall and left. Chen Daoyou was his big customer. Almost every time he came, he would buy out Lin Jiang's stock for a few days.
Ignoring the surveillance behind him, Lin Jiang returned home alone. As usual, he took a look at the sand sculptures of all sizes in the spirit beast bag, and then went into the house to practice.
Lin Jiang's cultivation speed is much faster now than before. After all, he has invested more. He spent so much money on the spirit gathering array and the best elixir. It is useful. Otherwise, Lin Jiang thinks he will not be able to reach the ninth level of Qi training in thirty to fifty years.
Outside Lin Jiang's house, someone stared for half an hour and finally left. He has figured out Lin Jiang's life pattern and knows that after he returns home, he rarely goes out and almost never goes out again.
He came to a certain house and said to a middle-aged man, "Master, Jiang Lin is home again."
"Still no intention of leaving the city?"
"No, through my observation, this person is extremely introverted. He doesn't make close friends and seldom goes out. I secretly inquired and found out that he has been like this for many years since he came to Yunzhong City."
"Yes, this person is something I can't see through at all."
"Master, does Jiang Lin really have any treasures on him?"
"Hehe,"
the middle-aged man smiled. As far as he knew, Jiang Lin had a lot of property on him. He had rented a house in Nancheng for nearly twenty years. The annual rent of four thousand spirit stones was not something that ordinary people could afford. Add to that his other expenses, even the eldest son of a large family could only afford this.
"Master..."
"Keep watching. We have waited for so many years. This period of time is not a big deal. If we eat this target, we don't have to worry about our cultivation for twenty years."
"Yes, Master."
The young man immediately agreed excitedly. They have done this more than once. His master has a special identity and can know many rich people in Yunzhong City, and then attack these rich people.
Of course, they don't act casually. They must investigate clearly, especially those who are rich but have no background and strength. They are all fat sheep in their eyes. Eating one of these fat sheep will make a terrifying profit, which is more than their income in a few years.
And this time, the target is a super fat sheep in their eyes. Eating one can not worry about the resources for cultivation for twenty years.
