Seeing that Li Zhiming was silent, Liu Ziming put his hands behind his back and said with a smile, "If you join me, you can live in District 8. There are many people in District 8, so you don't need to work at all. Moreover, I can give you double the monthly salary."
"how?"
Speaking of double salary, Liu Ziming showed a proud look on his face.
This was his capital to attract promising disciples, and he was confident that Li Zhiming would agree to him.
After all, this is double the salary, who can resist such temptation?
"Elder Liu really thinks highly of me,"
"But your double salary is too much for a mere patrol disciple like me."
"Elder Liu, instead of using double the salary to win people over, why not give them the salary that should belong to other jailers and disciples? Then maybe someone will voluntarily join your army."
Li Zhiming smiled slightly, the implication of his words was obvious.
"..." Liu Ziming's expression changed slightly.
"If you are willing, I can increase your salary by half!" Liu Ziming once again extended an olive branch, and he decided to spend a lot of money.
"Hahaha, the conditions are very tempting, but I refuse!"
Li Zhiming laughed twice at first, then refused outright.
Li Zhiming's reply caught Liu Ziming off guard, but he did not get angry. He just said in a deep voice:
"Li Zhiming, you have to think carefully. Others want this opportunity but don't have it yet!"
"If Elder Liu is alright, please go back."
Li Zhiming stretched out his hand and made a "please go" gesture. He didn't want to argue with Liu Ziming anymore.
"Okay, you're good!"
"Don't regret it later!"
Liu Ziming waved his hands and left Li Zhiming's room angrily.
Back in District 8, Liu Ziming came to Jiang Yuan's room.
"Elder Liu, what happened?" Jiang Yuan asked.
"That Li Zhiming is courting death. I almost tripled his salary, but he actually refused to join my army. He really refuses to accept my offer!"
Liu Ziming slammed the table in anger.
"Elder Liu, come and have some tea to calm down." Jiang Yuan picked up a cup of tea and handed it to Liu Ziming.
Liu Ziming took the teacup and drank it all, then a fierce light flashed across his eyes.
"Elder Liu, what should we do now? The one who asked us to do this is Qi Yang, a direct disciple of Qingluan Peak of the inner sect. It seems that he has just joined the Punishment Hall, and is a direct disciple! It is said that he will be the commander-in-chief of the Punishment Hall in the future!" Jiang Yuan reminded in a low voice.
"I know that Qi Yang wants us to kill Li Zhiming, but the risk is too great. If we are discovered, we simply cannot afford it."
"That's why I plan to recruit Li Zhiming into my team. If Li Zhiming becomes one of our own, isn't it equivalent to helping Qi Yang get things done?" Liu Ziming put down the teacup.
"Elder Liu is right, but Li Zhiming is not cooperating at all."
"If you don't cooperate, you'll have to take some risks!"
Liu Ziming clenched the teacup in his hand, his eyes became increasingly gloomy, and the teacup in his hand began to crack.
"Elder Liu, Elder Liu!"
Chen Chong walked in hurriedly.
"Why are you so panicked?" Liu Ziming asked.
"Elder Liu, news, Qi Yang, the disciple of the Inner Sect's Punishment Hall, has sent someone to deliver news again."
"Where are the people?!" Liu Ziming asked again.
"Senior brother, please come in." Chen Chong waved outside.
A young man walked in, looked around and his eyes fell on Liu Ziming.
"You are Elder Liu Ziming, who is in charge of logistics on the first floor of Xuyuan, right?" the young man asked.
"Yes, we are all family, just speak your mind."
"Well, Senior Brother Qi asked me to inform Elder Liu that in seven days, two disciples who made mistakes will be sent to the Abyss. When the time comes, please ask Elder Liu to make arrangements and make sure Li Zhiming escorts and guards the two of them."
The young man said with a cupped hand, a ghostly smile in his eyes.
“…”
Liu Ziming frowned slightly when he heard this.
He roughly understood what Qi Yang's plan was.
If he guessed correctly.
The two disciples who made mistakes should be Qi Yang's confidants or deadpools. He wanted them to kill Li Zhiming when he wasn't paying attention!
At that time, we only need to put the blame on the two people who did it, and no one will be able to find the blame on him.
"This Qi Yang is so cruel and vicious."
Liu Ziming murmured in his heart, feeling ashamed that he was not as ruthless as Qi Yang.
But if I did this, if I arranged for Li Zhiming to take this mission, he would definitely be investigated after the incident, which would be a considerable risk.
The man crossed his arms, and seeing that Liu Ziming remained silent, he whispered:
"Elder Liu Suwen has been in the sixth rank for a long time. If this can be accomplished, Senior Brother Qi asked me to tell you that he can go to the Dan Pavilion to ask for an Earth Spirit Pill for you, the elder."
"Earth Spirit Pill?"
When Liu Ziming heard this, his heart was filled with ripples.
Earth Spirit Pill, this is a very rare top-grade pill.
It can increase the probability of a sixth-grade person entering the fifth-grade, and a fifth-grade person entering the fourth-grade.
If he had an Earth Spirit Pill, Liu Ziming was confident that he would be able to reach the fifth level within three months.
At that time, his identity and status will be improved to a certain extent.
This condition is really tempting!
"Elder Liu, what do you think?"
"Okay." Liu Ziming chose to take the risk.
"Go back and tell Qi Yang that Li Zhiming is not an ordinary patrol disciple. He is very powerful. We need to send a real master!"
"Don't worry, Elder Liu. Senior Brother Qi has already prepared a foolproof plan."
"That's good."
"If there is nothing else, I will leave first."
The young man bowed and left the room.
Jiang Yuan and Chen Chong looked at Liu Ziming eagerly.
They all heard the conversation between Liu Ziming and the inner sect disciples just now.
"Look at how useless you are."
"Don't worry, you will benefit a lot after the matter is accomplished."
"You two should pay more attention to Li Zhiming and don't let him play any tricks in secret." After Liu Ziming said this, he got up and left.
"I understand." Jiang Yuan bowed.
Inwardly, he was complaining: "We have no backbone? You had backbone when you heard about the Earth Spirit Pill just now?"
"Chen Chong, go notify the Wang Junfei brothers and ask them to keep an eye on Li Zhiming for me." Jiang Yuan ordered.
"I understand!" Chen Chong nodded and left.
"Li Zhiming, ah Li Zhiming, you have offended Qi Yang this time, can you still get away with it?" Jiang Yuan muttered to himself, with a sinister smile on his face.
Li Zhiming didn't know that danger was approaching quietly.
He was sitting cross-legged on the bed, in a meditative state.
After a while, familiar footsteps were heard outside.
"Junior Brother Li?"
A handsome little face poked in, Mingzhu blinked her big eyes and asked in a low voice.
"Senior Sister Mingzhu, come in and talk."
Li Zhiming opened his eyes. Mingzhu had come to visit him several times during this period. As a result, the relationship between the two became more familiar.
"Brother, please come out quickly. Elder Qin wants you to go to the second floor. He wants to see you."
Mingzhu stood at the door and did not enter the house.
"Elder Qin wants to see me!"
Upon hearing this, Li Zhiming's expression became slightly solemn.
He had only had a conversation with Elder Qin when he captured the fox demon last time.
Since then, he has had no contact with Elder Qin again.
However, he also secretly learned during this period that all the elders were extremely respectful when talking about Elder Qin.
From this, it can be seen that Elder Qin on the second floor has a prominent status and an extraordinary identity.
Maybe he is more than just a guardian elder.
"Junior brother, please come with me. Elder Qin is waiting for you." Mingzhu said with a hint of urgency.
"good."
Li Zhiming jumped off the bed and quickly walked out of the room.
"Junior brother, how is your recovery?"
Mingzhu put her hands behind her back and walked briskly beside Li Zhiming.
As she spoke, she leaned forward slightly, tilted her head and observed Li Zhiming's expression, her eyes full of concern.
Today, Mingzhu was wearing a purple dress, her hair was smooth, her bright eyes were smart, and her whole body was full of the liveliness and beauty of a girl. She was the most moving color in this dim Xuyuan prison.
