Chapter 61 No one knows how attractive a backpack slot is to players
Facing the remarks of hitting two fists, the manager: "..."
The manager chose to keep his head down and continue contacting people in the clan.
He contacted Lin, claiming that he had punched him twice, and did not want to bother him. He turned his back and squatted on the ground to play with his cat. He grabbed a handful of snow and threw it on the cat's head. After the cat shook it off, he continued to throw.
He repeated this process until the steward finished talking to the person on the other side of the jade token. He finally stopped, turned around, and curiously asked which steward he was contacting.
Manager Meng said, "Your master has come to pick you up."
“…Pah.”
A lump of snow that was still in the hand fell to the ground with a slight sound, and the smile on the face of the person squatting on the ground shifted to the kitten's face.
The Great Elder arrived very quickly, much faster than his disciple Lin had expected. The sound of swords ringing from the canyon was like a countdown to life.
As expected, as soon as they met, Lin, who had skipped class and trespassed into Hantian Cliff, was hit hard on the head.
He put the fox fur coat over the man's head. When he was tying the belt, he saw the man's red hands from the cold. The elder's eyebrows jumped fiercely, and he couldn't help but pat the back of his head. His beard was about to blow up with anger. He said, "You are quite good at running!"
The fox fur coat with a hood was fluffy and thick at the edges, which blocked most of the wind and snow as well as the great elder's force. Lin Zhusheng didn't feel much of the beating the second time, and was still alive and kicking.
Then he was carried away alive and well by the great elder. When he was carried halfway, he remembered something, ran back and stuffed something into the steward's hand, and finally left with the great elder.
A huge sword appeared, and the two figures on the sword disappeared in the wind and snow. The steward stood still and retracted his gaze. He lowered his head and opened his palm, and found that lying inside was a tightly wrapped and still steaming snack.
The area covered with ice and snow was vast, and the sword flew in the sky for a long time before finally seeing a little normal green.
The longer Lin Zhusheng wandered in the snow-capped mountains, the more he was scolded.
After leaving the snowfield area, the Great Elder probably cursed until his mouth became dry, so he finally stopped and took off the fox fur hat on his head.
Without the obstruction of white fluff, the field of vision instantly became much clearer. He opened his eyes to the new world and heard the great elder beside him ask, "How is Ling Xujun doing?"
A sudden question. Not daring to say that he had secretly slipped the drug into someone's mouth, Lin Zhusheng sat up slightly and said, "It looked pretty bad when I went there."
"Bad" is still a euphemism. If the dot on the concentric jade hadn't been still lit, he would have almost thought that the person was dead.
He doesn't seem to be in a bad mood now, so the situation should be slightly better than expected. Glancing sideways at the man with red eyes, the Great Elder said, "Although his situation here is a little worse, he can survive."
Lin Zhusheng turned his head and asked, "Hmm?"
"It was the Third Elder who brought him here. He was given some medicine on the way. Although the wound will not heal, it will not get worse either."
The Great Elder said: "From the sect's perspective, this is the only way to save him."
Behind the lord of the world's number one city are the entanglements of many forces. Once the lord dies, the surrounding sects have their own plans. The most affected are those who have profited from following the lord for many years.
After the incident, the people of Guiyu City wanted to take him away, but the sect leader who arrived at that time brought him back on the pretext that he wanted to personally punish the disciple who broke the precepts.
Other sects in the cultivation world were watching. If he didn't make a statement, he would not be able to convince the public, and it would also give the city lords of Guiyu City the opportunity to come and demand the person back. After weighing the pros and cons, he could only send him to Hantian Cliff.
The environment of Hantian Cliff is harsh. It is located on a cliff in the heart of the snow-capped mountains. It is basically impossible for people outside the sect to find it. Using it to detain people can show the sect's attitude and convince the people. It can also prevent others from coming to harass them. The only thing is that the people detained inside will suffer.
But it is obvious which sin is more important than continuing to live. These elders knew what kind of person the other party was and could anticipate that there was something hidden behind it. They would just wait until the truth was revealed before taking him out to heal his wounds.
In fact, it seemed that there were no more injuries that needed healing. Lin Zhusheng listened, looked away unconsciously, and responded simply.
"And then you."
The Great Elder looked over and said, "Being absent from class without reason and trespassing into Frost Sky Cliff is a serious offense and requires severe punishment."
What was supposed to come finally came. Lin Zhusheng turned his gaze back, rubbed his hands, and asked carefully: "How heavy is it?"
The Great Elder glanced at him sideways and blew his beard heavily.
——
“Crash——”
Warm yellow sunlight shone into the room, dust and mist slowly floated in the light, and papers flew up and down on the table. The person sitting at the table with a pen threw the paper away and buried his head in the pile of remaining papers.
The kitten sitting on the side kept jumping around out of physical instinct to reach the paper falling from the air.
Putting the pen back in place with difficulty, Lin Zhusheng fell back, closed his eyes and solemnly declared to the world: "I am dead."
The old man said it was a severe punishment and he was prepared to be beaten with a stick. It turned out to be really severe, but it was severe on another level.
If you break the sect rules, you must remember them firmly and be severely punished, which means you have to copy the sect rules fifty times at the top of the mountain. Only after you have finished copying them can you go out for a stroll normally.
The bad news was that copying the rules fifty times didn't sound good. The worse news was that the sect rules were as numerous as half a brick. He worked hard to copy them for a long time, but when he looked back, he found that he hadn't finished copying them once, and he fell into despair.
It’s better to be beaten with a stick, at least it’s faster. After being beaten, you can come back and chew two herbs and that’s it.
Shaking his numb hands, he rolled over on the ground, grabbed the kitten that was still playing with paper, and asked, "Is there anything in the mall that can be copied quickly?"
The kitten had gotten used to his sudden attacks, so it just lay there and said, "No."
"What about the thing that makes the pen move on its own?"
"No."
“Why open a mall when there is nothing?”
Sitting up from the ground with the support of his old arms and legs, Lin Zhusheng resigned himself to picking up the pen again and continuing to copy from where he had been before. The emotionally stable kitten gave him a flying kick.
The honest copying work was declared finished after less than two days. There were piles of papers all around him. After the great elder went out again, Lin Zhusheng instructed Xiaomao to go to the next hill and quietly call his good friend Zhang Jing.
"Hmm? So, this is what you call fun?"
Zhang Jing really came.
Then he faced a person sitting on the ground doing serious and intense copying work, with a seat prepared for him next to him and pen, ink, paper and inkstone.
Looking up from his busy copying work, Lin Zhusheng warmly welcomed his good friend, enthusiastically took him to sit down and took out tea and snacks.
"Isn't calligraphy fun?" Lin Zhusheng quietly handed the original sect rules as a template to the person, and spoke in the voice of a good friend. He patted his shoulder and said, "Practicing calligraphy with friends is much more fun than drawing talismans alone in a room."
Forced to drink tea and eat snacks, Zhang Jing was completely on board and couldn't leave.
The pain of one person became the pain of two people. Zhang Jing held the pen and copied furiously. The more he copied, the more he felt something was wrong. Finally, he turned around and asked, "No, what did you do wrong to copy so much? Why did you cut the elder's beard in the middle of the night?"
"He didn't have much beard left anyway."
Lin Zhusheng paused while trying to copy with a pen in hand. He gestured a short distance and said concisely, "I went to Hantian Cliff for a short tour."
Zhang Jing snorted without commenting. Being able to copy so much, it doesn't look like "Xiao Xiao" just went around in a circle.
Looking at the pile of unwritten papers, Lin Zhusheng felt more and more hopeless. He leaned on the table and said, "Can I still go down the mountain for a walk in the next two days?"
Who knows, he might still be copying here even after the senior brother has returned. It's very sad.
Not giving him a chance to slack off, Zhang Jing patted him on the head while writing. After that, he remembered something and said, "It's good that you don't go down these few days."
Lin Zhusheng turned his head and asked, "Hmm?"
After taking a quick look at him, Zhang Jing quickly looked away and just said it was okay.
When you are on the mountain, you can avoid communicating with other people. It might be better if this person doesn't hear some things.
The incident involving the Lord of Guiyu City is getting bigger and bigger, and the truth has not been made public yet. The attitude of the people of Guiyu City is subtly not as tough as before, but they are still being stubborn. The death toll has been released, and it is rumored that more than a hundred people died, most of them ordinary mortals except the Lord of Guiyu City.
Originally most people in the sect believed that there was something hidden behind the incident, but after learning that most of the dead were mortals, they changed their minds and said a lot of unpleasant things, whether to the city lord or Ling Xujun. If this person heard it, he might just pick up his sword and fight.
Zhang Jing said it was okay, so Lin Zhusheng didn't ask any more questions. He struggled to sit up and started picking up bricks again.
With the help of his friends, he finally finished copying the sect rules 50 times before he got internal injuries, plus a self-criticism for serious violations of the sect rules, and regained his freedom to run around the mountains.
The Great Elder accepted the fifty reviews, and when he saw the contents mixed with different handwritings, he raised his eyebrows. In the end, he said nothing more. After reading the reviews, he posted them on the bulletin board of the task center and took them down after one month.
Now everyone knows that the Great Elder's first disciple, a certain disciple named Lin, bravely entered the Frost Sky Cliff and angrily copied the sect rules 50 times.
The only reason for going to Hantian Cliff is because of Ling Xujun who is still inside. Ling Xujun was deeply involved in a major case, and being implicated might lead to his reputation being harmed. It was said that a disciple went to him many times to persuade him not to get involved with the flawed Ling Xujun, but in the end he had a sword across his neck and dared not say anything more.
The Great Elder's first disciple had such a good temper that he hardly ever lost his temper. He was smiling almost every day. The last time he got a little angry was during the competition to advance to the inner sect, when he beat up a disciple for some unknown reason. After the beating, he returned to his smiling self. Only this time when he drew his sword did he smile, but his eyes and his entire face were cold, without a trace of smile.
He was very sensible. From then on, no one dared to say anything bad about Ling Xujun in front of the other party.
There were many different opinions about the events of Guiyu City. When the next news came, it was the news that the forces of Guiyu City were suddenly surrounded and wiped out by several major sects.
The case was solved and all previous speculations were overturned.
Including the Lord of Guiyu City, all the dead were indeed killed by Ling Xujun. The Lord of Guiyu City and his followers present deserved to be killed, and the death of the rest of the mortals became a relief or more appropriately.
The cultivation of the City Lord of Guiyu City has stagnated for many years. At the same time, there are only one or two people at the same level who are still alive relying on a lot of natural treasures, and they are dying. However, he can manage all affairs normally and even fight. It is not because he is gifted, but because he uses forbidden techniques to prolong his life.
Use the lives of others to continue your own life. "Others" were originally the city lord's clansmen, and the secret ritual was also held at the clansmen's place of residence. After all the clansmen died, the next group of people were deceived by the rhetoric of "becoming a member of the city lord's clan and enjoying wealth" and taken to that place, and then they could never get out.
The rumor that the city lord's clan is mysterious and does not contact outsiders is actually the product of the deceived people wanting to seek help from the outside world, but being closely monitored by the city lord's followers.
The only beneficiary of the secret technique is the city lord himself. Everyone else is a sacrifice of the secret technique. They are deprived of their flesh and blood and lifespan time and time again, their skin and flesh are eroded and sores form, and they suffer extreme pain every day. However, they cannot die before the last bit of flesh and blood is squeezed out, and can only wait for a chance to be freed in despair.
The incident lasted for more than a hundred years. Because it was done secretly, no one discovered it, and those who discovered it were resolved. But Ling Xujun noticed it when he went to Guiyu City to meet him last time, which led to this incident.
There were signs of fire in the tribe’s settlement, but the fire was suppressed by a water-stopping talisman and could not spread, so most of the place was preserved. Xu Rong, the second elder's direct disciple, who went to the scene with the other elders in charge, discovered a secret passage leading to the underground. In the secret passage, they saw some rotten meat, as well as information about the secret techniques and formations.
Although we still don't know how Ling Xujun managed to kill the Lord of Guiyu City across an entire level, but judging from the result alone, what happened is basically clear. Xu Jun of Tianzong Ling dealt with the city lord and his followers alone, and afterwards gave a sudden death to the sacrifices who had not much time left to live and were only seeking liberation.
His sword was fast, so fast that people were freed from the affliction before they even felt the pain.
Soon after the news came back, someone said that the people who had been placed in Hantian Cliff had returned to the sect. Gifts of condolences came in like water to the sect's door, but they were all returned and no one was accepted. Then they quietly recuperated and closed the door to visitors.
When Lin Zhusheng heard the news, he had just emerged from the woods and was still handing in a task at the mission center.
Hearing the heated discussions among the people around him, he caught the key words about returning to the clan. He originally wanted to cancel his trip to visit Wuqi to touch his fur, but then he heard that the clan was closed to visitors, so he rescheduled the trip that he almost kicked out.
There were too many people at the mission center, so he walked out of the door carrying his reward, turned around and walked slowly towards the library.
There were a few leaves mixed in the white hair on his head, but he didn't care. He walked while sorting out his backpack which had become full again without him noticing, trying to make room for the reward he had just received.
Very good no location.
Unable to find a spot for a long time, he turned to look at his sleeves. He had picked up enough garbage in the mountains today, and his sleeves were filled with all kinds of fruits and herbs, and he couldn't fit anything else in.
Good, it's full. He randomly picked out a fruit for the kitten to finish, then quickly put the reward into the empty space of the fruit until it was perfectly inserted. Only then did he breathe a sigh of relief and wipe the non-existent sweat.
The kitten happily ate the fruit and reminded, "It's almost time for you to pack your backpack."
"I'm organizing it every day." After walking to a less crowded place with some difficulty, Lin Zhusheng took out the big sword, sat on it and said, "Your mall, which has nothing in it, should be updated. For example, you can sell backpack grids or something."
He was still upset about not being able to buy a cheating device and getting kicked. The little cat didn't even raise his eyes, just concentrated on eating the fruit, saying, "If I could sell it, I would have offered a million dollars a long time ago."
One grid can hold an unlimited number of the same thing, so in a sense it is indeed an infinite space and is worth a million gold prices.
What I mean is, there is nothing. It is indeed a mall with nothing. The long sword left the ground, Lin Zhusheng said "Oh", and headed towards the library.
The wind in the air blew the fur up. The kitten looked up at the person above his head, holding the fruit and suddenly asked, "Are you really that short of space?"
The answer is obvious.
The kitten put the fruit aside for the time being and said, "I know a way to add grids. It's a rumor I heard from a forum when I was an intern. I'm not sure if it's accurate. Do you want to hear it?"
Lin Zhusheng lowered his head and said briefly: "Tell me in detail."
"Don't couples give each other gifts when they become partners?"
The kitten said, "Wuqi - yes, it's the Wuqi you're going to touch later. I heard that the gift for becoming a Taoist couple can be an expansion of the backpack."
...What a gossip, what a wild way.
It was the first time for Lin, a player who wanted the grid very much, to hear such a thing. Between shock and resistance, he chose to ask curiously: "Seriously?"
