Chapter 712: Money for Life
During the grand sacrifice, people's thoughts, popularity and popularity are at their peak, and the gods are clearly responding. All demons, ghosts, evil spirits and monsters have to stay in peace to avoid getting into trouble.
That night, the King of Wu did not dream of the Five-Directions God again and slept peacefully.
Although he did not dream of the Five-Directional God, Gong Mengbi did dream of the Five-Directional God.
In Ma Qingji’s dream at night, his soul flew into the darkness and went straight to Yue’s mansion.
Wei Dapan of the Yin and Yang Division smiled brightly and said, "Mingfu, the Lord of the Mansion has summoned you."
He accompanied Wei Dapan to meet the Lord of the Mansion. The Lord of the Mansion was smiling, and a jade box was placed on the table. When he arrived, the Lord of the Mansion reached out and knocked on the jade box, and the jade box opened. Inside, five chaotic water balls of the Five-way Spiritual God were shining, and talismans flickered among them.
This is the shrine of the five generals.
The Lord of the Mansion said, "Mingfu, Mingfu, you really do have some of the cunning of a fox spirit."
Gong Mengbi laughed and said, "This is what I deserve. The Lord should praise me for my broad-mindedness."
The Lord of the Mansion also laughed and said, "You are so broad-minded. You have done well. You should keep up the good work."
Gong Mengbi seemed to hear a buzzing sound in his head, and then he fell back into the dream and woke up in the dream.
His spiritual platform twitched slightly, and the Five Mountains Spiritual Gods emitted five-colored light. In an instant, he felt that he was gradually able to borrow more of the Five Mountains' divine power.
This is not only a commendation from the Lord of the Mansion, but also a collective appreciation from the Five Mountains.
The majesty of the Five Sacred Mountains' Dharma images has become an extremely important component of Gong Mengbi's combat effectiveness.
"The Lord is generous."
Gong Mengbi sighed. Without the Lord's help, how could he have been admired by the Five Mountains with just a sacrifice?
After a good night's sleep, the King of Wu summoned the King of Linchuan the next day. He praised Ma Qingji for his broad knowledge and the King of Linchuan for his measured approach, which made the King of Linchuan very happy.
King Linchuan said: "This Master Ma attained enlightenment in Xima Mountain in the previous dynasty. He had been in seclusion practicing before, and came out a few years ago. He has lived for hundreds of years and is also a master of the Tao."
The King of Wu still remembered Xima Mountain and said, "Xima Mountain, as I recall, is an evil place that breeds evil spirits."
King Linchuan smiled bitterly and said, "Master Ma has regained control of Xima Mountain and no longer allows his disciples to travel down the mountain without permission. We used to have a relationship with the head of Xima Mountain, but that's now severed."
King Wu was more open-minded and said, "Raising evil spirits is just a small matter. People like Master Ma are the ones with real abilities. You should try to win them over."
King Linchuan naturally agreed.
Prince Linchuan felt a spring breeze on his face, and when he faced Ma Qingji again, he became even more respectful and courteous.
Ma Qingji just took it easy and even reminded him: "I have solved a big problem for Your Highness, and I can still protect Your Highness in the palace for three years."
Prince Linchuan was shocked and asked, "Why only three years?"
Ma Qingji returned the scroll to the King of Linchuan and said, "Your Highness promised. I have now solved the remaining problems of Wutong. This is fair."
Prince Linchuan knew how difficult this matter was. Master Shi and Monk Jishan confirmed its value and further proved that Ma Qingji was a real talent.
But this gold nugget has grown legs and wants to run away. How can this be possible?
King Linchuan said nothing, and even laughed, saying, "Your Excellency has solved a great problem for my father, so it is fair. I hope Your Excellency will give me more guidance in the future."
After bidding farewell to Ma Qingji, he sent a letter to Taoist Zhang that night, asking him about the progress of his search for the master of corpse refining and when he could subdue Ma Qingji.
The letter was swallowed by a crow, which then spread its wings and flew southwest.
Just as it flew out of Gusu, the crow exploded with a snap, blood splattered everywhere, and landed in the woods not far from Gusu.
Taoist Zhang's Rakshasa ghost body was crawling on the ground, kneeling at the feet of a tall and Tibetan young man. The young man had a bloodless face and a pale body.
Taoist Zhang flew into the air, picked up the letter floating in the air, wiped the blood off it, and presented it to the evil star in front of him.
The young man took a look at what was written on the letter, handed it back to Taoist Zhang, and said, "Take a look."
Taoist Zhang smiled awkwardly after reading it and said, "Senior Chen, the King of Linchuan is about to subdue that zombie. Senior, you are proficient in the art of refining corpses. Why don't you come with me to Gusu to seek a career?"
The young man nodded and said, "That's fine. I, Chen Jingrui, have plenty of skills. As long as you can afford the price, I might as well sell it to you."
"You offended me, and you haven't paid the ransom yet, so let's get it back too."
On the second day, Taoist Zhang secretly brought this man to Gusu and asked King Linchuan for help.
King Linchuan came hurriedly and saw Taoist Zhang with shackles on his hands, bowing and scraping in front of a young man. He looked at the young man again and saw that he had an extraordinary appearance, but his eyes revealed a kind of indifference.
King Linchuan said, "Sir, this is my retainer. I don't know how I have offended you. Please forgive him."
The young man asked, "Are you the King of Linchuan?"
Prince Linchuan smiled and said, "That's right."
The young man nodded and said, "That's good. Your retainer ate the man I was planning to capture and refine into a corpse. I thought his Rakshasa bones were barely usable, so I planned to kill him and refine him into a Rakshasa corpse ghost. But he said I could pay for his life, and that you were recruiting people to deal with the zombies, so I brought him here."
Prince Linchuan looked at Taoist Zhang.
Taoist Zhang nodded.
King Linchuan smiled and said, "Okay, okay."
But when he really took Taoist Zhang away, his expression was really ugly.
Back at the palace, Prince Linchuan looked at Taoist Zhang expressionlessly, which made Taoist Zhang's whole body hairy. He asked, "Your Highness?"
King Linchuan said, "I wonder why you are worth all that gold."
Taoist Zhang was also panicking. Chen Jingrui's outburst and the ruthless blow he had dealt to Prince Linchuan had put him in a very bad mood. He quickly said, "Your Highness, the gold is a minor matter; the matter of our master is a major one."
Prince Linchuan's attention was indeed diverted, and he asked, "Can this man really subdue Ma Qingji?"
Taoist Zhang shuddered and said, "I accidentally ate a talent he valued, and he captured me. I've been traveling with him and have witnessed his abilities. He has a flying corpse under his command with extraordinary powers, even greater than Ma Qingji. In my opinion, he will definitely succeed."
"Furthermore, this man loves money like his life, and he loves gold the most. As long as Your Highness offers a reward, he will definitely be able to surrender Ma Qingji and bring him before Your Highness."
Prince Linchuan pondered for a while, then looked at Taoist Zhang and said, "You know this matter must not fail."
Taoist Zhang said, "I'm willing to guarantee it with my life!"
Prince Linchuan took a deep breath and said, "Okay, go tell him that if he surrenders Ma Qingji and brings him to me, I can give him 100,000 taels of gold."
Taoist Zhang said, "I will not fail in my mission."
The next day, Taoist Zhang brought Chen Jingrui's reply: "Your Highness, he wants two hundred thousand taels."
Prince Linchuan's face was trembling, his eyelids were twitching, but he finally gritted his teeth and said, "Promise him."
