Chapter 30 Who Saves Who? "Gululu——"
“Gurgle—”
They stared at each other for only a few seconds. Before the brain could finish thinking, the huge white beast saw the person in front of it looking serious, his pupils dilated, his mouth opened, and he swallowed several mouthfuls of water at once, and his hands and feet began to flap.
"……?"
Seriousness never lasts more than two seconds. Lin Zhusheng, forgetting that he was almost out of breath, choked on the water. Before he sank to the bottom, the giant beast held him on the head and pulled him out of the water.
For a moment, it was hard to tell who was saving whom.
The golden-red formation disappeared, and the discomfort of drowning disappeared. He lay on the wet white fur, somersaulted and spit out a large mouthful of water, then took a few deep breaths of fresh air. He finally felt alive again, wiped the water off his face, exhaled a long breath, and said, "I thought I was going to die."
The formation disappeared and his face returned to normal. The heavy rain continued to fall on his face, blurring his vision. He wiped his face again and again and turned to look in the original direction.
——Very high.
It was so high that half of the library could be seen clearly, and the remaining half was blocked by the body of the snow-white monster. Realizing where he was, he lowered his head sharply, patted the place where he had just spit out the water that had been poured into his mouth, and said sorry.
The white fur was soaked through, and it was impossible to tell which was rain and which was water from the yard. When he patted it, he could only spread the water more evenly.
Now is not the time to cause trouble. The heavy rain was still falling, his hair and clothes were soaked, and when the evening wind blew, he yawned on the spot. For a moment, he couldn't figure out whether he should take off his clothes or wrap them tightly at this time.
His ears moved slightly, Wuqi raised his golden vertical pupils, and said, "Hold on tight."
"Um?"
He was busy thinking about the clothes problem, and the words went in one ear and out the other without passing through his brain at all. Before Lin Zhusheng could react to what was being said, he moved his body and the scene around him changed abruptly. He leaned back and instantly grabbed the fur underneath, not daring to let go.
Flying through the air, Wuqi didn't go too far. He only moved from the library to the square in front of the library that could accommodate him. The rain hit him again and again, and he just leaned forward with his head lowered, his face touching the wet ground.
Lin Zhusheng, who was awakened by the sudden fall, did not dare to stay on the head any longer. He quickly jumped down from the head in the direction of the fall, stepped on the solid ground again, and raised his hands as if he had been reborn.
“…”
A gust of wind blew, and the cold feeling of the clothes sticking to his body instantly intensified, and he quickly withdrew his raised hand.
As he retracted his hand, a white shadow flashed past the corner of his eye. He turned his head to look, but before he could see clearly, his body was caught by something and fell backwards.
Instead of falling to the ground as he had imagined, he fell backwards, into the warm, furry fur that had somehow dried in an instant.
The big white tail covered the top of the head, blocking the constant rain and forming an absolutely warm haven.
His body instantly became warm, and he opened his eyes, turning to look at the huge snow-white beast next to him. The golden vertical pupils that were so close to him turned and met his, and then the eyelids closed tiredly.
No one knew that a small courtyard was storing water, but the aura of a great demon was rampant, and a white giant beast as big as a mountain emerged from the side of the library, which could be noticed anyway.
The library was under martial law. From the moment the sect leader and elders sensed the presence to the moment they arrived at the scene, all they saw was a ferocious snow-white beast lying quietly in the center of the square.
Wuqi escaped at night. The sect leader had already taken out his sword, and the elders were ready to form an array and inject spiritual power into the storm.
The formation to trap the beast was about to be completed, the long sword was unsheathed, and just as they were ready to fight, the ferocious beast, which had been lying quietly, raised its head slightly and looked sideways.
When he moved, they discovered that there was a person nestling in the snow-white fur. He was wearing clothes like an outer sect disciple, and seemed to be secretly rubbing the white hair with his hands, but he quickly retracted his hands after noticing them.
This was the first time that Lin Zhusheng met the sect master and the great elder, along with the library manager. The sect leader looked like he was middle-aged, with a very stern square face. The eldest elder had gray hair, a long beard, and the most serious face in history, with deep wrinkles.
Wuqi recognized his master, the Frost Sky Locking Formation was broken, and he automatically broke away. The moment he realized that Wuqi had recognized his master, Lin, who was wrapped in fur, received everyone's attention.
It was still raining and it was not convenient to talk here, so he was invited to the courtyard where the manager of the library was living.
Wuqi was obviously too big to fit anywhere, and eventually he turned back into human form under the regretful gaze of someone nearby. Before going to the courtyard for a detailed discussion, Lin Zhusheng requested to go back to the library first.
Not for anything else, mainly because his kitten was still getting wet in the rain.
This was a special situation, so the steward opened the door and went in with him.
It is impossible to enter the library, so the kitten is still on the original roof. It is easy to find. As long as there is light, you can see it at a glance. Lin, who was afraid of heights, couldn't go up, and the clan leader finally went up to help rescue the kitten and returned it to him. The chief elder then took action to solve the problem of water filling the courtyard.
Dragging his wet robe, Wuqi quietly picked up the umbrella that was just placed outside the courtyard, opened it again, and shaded the person who was standing in the courtyard in the rain to pick up the kitten.
His clothes were soaked, so Lin Zhusheng went to the manager's yard and changed into clean clothes. Wuqi and the elders didn't know how they did it, but after entering the room, the hot steam instantly dried their bodies.
“……!”
He sat down in his still messy clothes, glanced around, and decided to do the same when he got a higher level, and steam it several times a day.
After drinking the hot tea to dispel the cold, the sect leader learned the whole story. He kept his words, put down the teacup, looked at Wu Qi and said, "If you can guarantee not to hurt others and monsters, and this young friend agrees, you can leave at will, and our sect will never stop you."
Swearing an oath has no actual effect, whether it is for humans or monsters, but it is different for monsters with masters. Every word uttered is a promise to the master and must be kept.
They looked at Wu Qi, and Wu Qi looked at Lin Zhusheng. Sitting on the side with his chin propped up, watching the conversation, he finally realized that the conversation was about him. Lin, who was concentrating on drying his kitten's fur, raised his head, his attention was all on the kitten, and said, "I have no objection."
He was just an ordinary player who was trying to gain favorability. It didn't matter to him whether Wuqi left or where he went. As long as he lived in a corner of the world where he could gain full favorability and complete all achievements, he had no other opinion.
"like……"
"No, wait."
The pupils turned back, Wuqi opened his mouth slightly, and just as he was about to speak, the man sitting next to him, who was cleaning the cat, stopped him in time, stretched out his hand to block him behind him, and said, "This is not good."
Unexpectedly, something that was almost finalized would have a twist. The sect leader and the great elder looked over.
Pushing the people around him back, Lin Zhusheng straightened his back and said, "If you can't hurt people or monsters, then you're just a walking sandbag, right?"
Fortunately, he used his brain.
From the perspective of the ferocious beast alone, it is already very difficult to suppress its nature. Add to that the fact that it cannot hurt humans or monsters, that it is extremely powerful but cannot take action, and that it can only passively endure being beaten, the ancient ferocious beast is purely a living sandbag.
It would be better for a ferocious beast to become a sandbag and sweep leaves in the yard.
I didn't expect that a small outer sect disciple would have the courage to refute in this situation. The great elder moved his beard and met his gaze.
The clan leader refilled his tea and asked him what he thought.
"Can you change it?" He turned to look at Wuqi and found that he was listening. Lin Zhusheng continued, "He cannot actively hurt people and monsters, but he can actually exist in illegal infringement...ah, I mean, if others hurt him, he has the freedom to fight back, as long as it is not excessive."
Facing the gazes of the Sect Master and the Great Elder, he turned to the person who signed the agreement and added, "Of course you can't deliberately induce others to attack you."
Then he rubbed his hands together and asked, "Is this ok?"
He is the master and has absolute power to command, but he chooses to negotiate, or is completely unaware that he has the power to command. Not getting a reply, the hands were about to rub sparks, and they were just about to slap him. Wu Qi smiled for the first time, lowered his eyes, and nodded in response.
Lin Zhusheng responded readily and turned to look at the sect master and the great elder.
What we thought would be decided quickly ended up being discussed verbally before being repeatedly discussed on paper.
The agreement was amended and finally finalized. The safety of the human and demon races was guaranteed, and Wuqi had maximum freedom.
After discussing back and forth until his mouth was dry, the sect leader drank a sip of tea and said with a smile: "Young friend, you are quite courageous. Which elder's disciple are you?"
Ordinary inner disciples would get nervous just by seeing them, let alone the outer disciples. This guy is now sitting here as if he is back home, and he can even think of ways to gain more rights and interests for Wuqi among them. He is indeed very courageous and eloquent.
Lin Zhusheng's mouth was dry, so he took a big gulp of tea and replied, "The disciple of the Second Elder."
Sect Leader: "Newcomer this year?"
Lin Zhusheng said yes.
The newcomer has reached the level of Contract Wuqi in less than two months. The clan leader raised his eyebrows and said, "Such a good talent. If you like it when you enter the inner sect in the future, you can come to my peak."
The reservation was made even at the outer gate. The gray-haired elder turned his head to glance at the sect master, then retracted his gaze, still with that unshakable serious face.
While they were talking, Wuqi, who was originally sitting on the side, had fallen down and was lying on the table. His head of white hair hung down with a sound. Thinking that the person was dead, Lin Zhusheng was shocked and quickly leaned over to search.
Fortunately, he is not dead and is still breathing. The clan leader said: "The cultivation of the monster is affected by the master. My friend's current cultivation is relatively low and cannot support his consumption, so he gets tired easily."
“…”
He heard the thing he least wanted to hear. When he heard the word "master", the corner of Lin Zhusheng's eyes twitched violently. He sat back in his original position and withdrew his hands.
