Chapter 129 Chapter 129
The Curse Priest frowned slightly: "Who are you?"
Si Zai on the other end of the phone laughed. He had made the right bet.
Si Zai didn't know who answered the phone, he just guessed. There were three possible identities of the person who answered the phone. The first was the weird businessman Bai Yixin who took his phone, the second was the white-robed man who was suspected to be a high-ranking official in the "weird organization", and the last was some unknown existence, perhaps Bai Yixin's friend, or perhaps another member of the weird organization.
If it was Bai Yixin, he would immediately recognize his own voice after receiving the call and start talking. If the other party heard his own voice but remained silent, then the possibility of the other two would become greater.
The unknown person cannot reveal his identity, so the only identity that Si Zai can guess is that of the man in a white robe who looks like a priest.
It can be confirmed that Bai Yixin is a member of the "weird organization".
Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain why something that was traded just ten minutes ago fell into someone else's hands so quickly.
Moreover, the status of this priest is definitely higher than Bai Yixin.
"Hello, let me introduce myself." Si Cai said with a smile, "I am Si Cai, the director of the Strange Response Department. As a representative of China, we would like to establish a cooperative relationship with you."
"cooperate?"
"You have no ill will towards humans." Si Zai continued, "At the same time, our goals are the same. We want to survive in the face of the monsters that kill humans, and you need to offer sacrifices to the gods."
Curse Priest: "I don't think you can provide us with any help. We can prepare the offerings to the gods ourselves."
Si Zai: "Don't we need temples?"
The curse priest was stunned.
"In a mountain where no one disturbs us, there is a tall temple and houses built on the mountain for people to stay." Si Zai said, "Gold coins, clothes, mobile phones, everything we can provide, we can take it out."
Si Zai said again: "As long as you don't kill people or burn mountains, we will not interfere with your behavior. If you are not interested in these, you can also put forward other conditions."
The Curse Priest asked back: "What about you? What do you need us to help you with?"
"A stable trading relationship." Si Zai sighed. "That strange merchant's whereabouts are uncertain and his pace is very fast. He was in Haicheng an hour ago and appeared in Beijing an hour later. With such a fast speed, even if we see him on the live broadcast, we can't find him unless he comes to our door himself. But we hope to be able to contact him at any time and get the best products from him as soon as possible."
What Si Zai was most worried about was that Bai Yixin had a lot of goods in his hands, but he didn't take them out. Or he didn't have much goods, and if he gave them to others, they would have nothing left.
Whether it is secret manuals or weapons, no matter how much or how little the goods are, China hopes to always get the best things first.
Curse Priest: "I'll get back to you later."
After saying that, he hung up the phone.
The salvation system asked anxiously, "Isn't this what the host wants? Isn't Bai Yixin set up to trade with humans? Can't you just agree to him directly? Why do you have to reply later?"
"Haha, if I agree immediately, wouldn't that mean I'm the boss of this weird organization?" The Curse Priest curled his lips, "And I do need to think about it."
Although he intended to set all the aliases to be from one organization, he still needed to think carefully before establishing a temple as a base in China.
Once he has a base, it means that the Chinese officials can find him at any time. He is not afraid of asking for help, but he is afraid that his vest is not secure enough.
"System, you can monitor the cameras and recorders around me, right?"
"Of course, please rest assured, host."
"Come to think of it, when I was in the house before, this phone wasn't located."
"No." The rescue system replied, "This system has checked and the positioning system of this phone is not activated. No one has reversely located this place, and of course no one is doing so now."
Curse Priest: "Really? Did you forget?"

At the same time, in the headquarters office in Beijing.
Nong Xiangming: "If I can locate your phone, I can immediately know the location of the person on the other end of the phone, unless he is in a place with no signal. Why not locate it?"
Si Zai leaned back in his chair, crossed his legs, and looked at the phone on the table: "No need. Anyway, even if we find out, it may not be the other party's base camp, and we can't catch them even if we go there. And if the weird live broadcast is also from their side, this little trick will be discovered in a second. It's better to be sincere and wait for a reply honestly."
Nong Xiangming: “I see.”
*
The Curse Priest was still puzzled as to why there was no location, but since the other party did not move, he simply stopped thinking about it.
Let's take a look at the mall first and take a look at the salvation points.
Because the vests placed outside take actions from time to time, the salvation points are slowly increasing. Of course, I can't afford new cheats now, but I can buy some cheap props.
The Curse Priest was flipping through the items page by page. He bought a few bottles of healing potions and antidote potions and put them in the package for emergency use. Even if he didn't use them, if the vest needed them, he could just grab them. It was very convenient.
"It can still be sold." The Curse Priest asked, "System, if we give the potion to the R&D personnel, can they develop one with the same effect?"
"It's impossible to have the same effect. Some ingredients are very special and don't exist in this world." The salvation system replied, "But with the technological capabilities of this world, we can make a weakened version."
"A weakened version? For example?"
Savior System: "The advanced healing potion sold in the mall can cure any disease or injury, even the loss of a limb or internal organs, in a few minutes as long as you have a breath. The weakened version does not have the effect of regenerating broken limbs and replenishing internal organs. At most, it can only cure diseases and injuries, such as eliminating tumors or healing broken bones."
“…It’s already pretty impressive.”
The Curse Priest subconsciously bought a few more bottles, and when he realized that his salvation points were not enough, he remembered that this was not the purpose of opening the mall.
He wanted to see the sundry section.
I always thought that the Miscellaneous Area was the most insignificant area mall for me, but now I actually actively open it. This time I mainly want to see the part about land sales.
He wanted to find a good piece of land that was priced high in the mall and ask Si Zai to provide it for free, so that he could save some salvation points.
"I didn't look carefully before." The Curse Priest flipped through the pages of land and house purchase options. "The land in China is basically in the wilderness and mountainous areas."
Savior System: "Even this system cannot clear out a city with so many people to make room for the host. All we can find now are uninhabited places that no one cares about."
It is the kind of place that may not be noticed even after several years after the transaction.
Anyway, there is teleportation, so even if you live in the deep mountains and forests, you can go to the bustling city to buy groceries in just one second. Therefore, living in the deep mountains actually gives you a beautiful and quiet scenery.
The Curse Priest closed the store interface and said, "System, please recommend a place. A secluded place where my vests can gather without being disturbed. It would be best if there is a vast expanse of land. Anyway, now that the God of Disaster has given his approval, the range of choices should be very large."
"Host, this system recommends Lengge Canyon first!" The system said excitedly, "You can avoid being discovered and disturbed, and the site is large enough to build a house anywhere."
"Sound familiar?"
"Also known as Death Valley."
Curse Priest: ...
Even if our vests are all weird, we shouldn't...
"Change it!" The Curse Priest gritted his teeth. "I remember now. It's all frozen soil in there. It's freezing cold."
"Oh, what does the host think of Lop Nur?"
"Even if I don't care about tourist attractions, I know this place is a restricted area for humans." The Curse Priest said, "Of course, my vest is gone and I can come out at any time, but there is no point staying in a place like that."
"And Lop Nur's nickname is the Sea of Death, right? Can't you find a place without the nickname 'Death'?"
The salvation system emphasized: "We will never be disturbed by humans!"
"Anyone who dares to disturb me will die!" The curse priest retorted, "I just want to find a suitable place to live in seclusion, but that doesn't mean I will be isolated from others forever once I go there!"
The occasional guest is not totally unconsidered.
"Is all the land in the mall like this? It's too unreliable!" The curse priest picked up the phone.
He should just go directly to someone like Si Zai to make recommendations.
Si Zai, who was waiting over there, had already had three cups of tea. When he heard the phone ring, he picked it up immediately: "Have you thought about it?" and turned on the speaker.
"It's best to find a place on the top of a mountain where no one is disturbing you. The site should be large and the temple should be spacious." The Curse Priest asked in a low voice, "If you can do that, I'll give you the opportunity to contact Bai Yixin at any time."
Si Zai motioned to Nong Xiangming beside him to write down the conditions: "Okay, no problem, we will select several good sites for you to choose from. However, after selecting the site, it will take a long time to build the temple. Can you give us Bai Yixin's contact information first? After all, every second, our people live under strange threats. We hope to gain the power to protect themselves as soon as possible."
"I will give this communicator to him. He will contact you when there are new goods. As for the value of the goods and what to trade for them, go ask Bai Yixin." The curse priest hung up the phone and threw the phone into the package.
The Salvation System immediately delivered the things to Bai Yixin who was still in the capital, and also brought information about the deal reached with Si Zai.
Looking at the phone in his hand, Bai Yixin raised his eyebrows and said, "I really have a hard life, don't you think so, Tong?"
Under the tree by the river, Tong wiped the green blood from the corner of her eye and dissected a weird corpse. She seemed to have just noticed that Bai Yixin had spoken and turned to look at him: "Huh?"
There was confusion in those big eyes.
Bai Yixin shook his head, opened his phone and flipped to the call log. He glanced at the system package and then sent a message to Nong Xiangming: [One bottle for treatment, one bottle for detoxification. In exchange: something that makes me happy.]
After sending the message, she whistled, not caring how much headache the person receiving the message would have because of this vague trading item.
"Hey, who made me Bai Yixin? This is the setting." Bai Yixin sighed.
But he was actually quite happy that he could cheat people in a deal.
