Chapter 321: Charging for Rescue
Zhong Ling'er looked at everyone and found their surprised expressions funny.
When the cost of making a mistake is zero, people will make the same mistake again and again. Only after receiving enough lessons will they become smarter. Therefore, it is true that Zhong Ling'er wants to make a fortune, but she also really wants to teach people a lesson.
"One million is a bit much, isn't it? How could they possibly carry so many spirit stones?"
Feng Zeyang couldn't help but speak out. He felt that one million spirit stones were not enough. How much was considered a lot? The reward for a life on the black market was only a few hundred thousand or a hundred thousand.
"It doesn't matter if they don't bring it. I'll accept the IOU and only charge half a cent a day in interest."
Everyone was speechless, the profit was so low, even the demons were not as evil as her.
Xuanyuan Hongyuan smiled and said, "Junior Sister, do you need help? Can we make some money?"
Zhong Linger covered her chest with her hands, "Master, I only make a small amount of money, do you still want to share it? Your Xuanyuan family is so rich and powerful, can you not bother with me?"
"What you said is true, Junior Sister. Xuanyuan family's spiritual stones didn't come from the wind, and we are just disciples. We don't have much spare money. Junior Sister should include us in her fortune."
The disciple of Xuanyuan family was very clever, he immediately stepped forward and said with a smile: "Yes, Junior Sister, I have always liked you, if you become rich, you must take me with you."
"Junior sister, my pocket money is never enough, you must help me."
"My dear Junior Sister, I always follow your lead. I will definitely help to save people later. Please show some appreciation!"
Xuanyuan Hongyuan kicked the man and said, "What do you mean by showing some respect? Is Junior Sister a stingy person?"
Zhong Ling'er made a bitter face and gave Xuanyuan Hongyuan a thumbs up. "You are willing to give up the face of the eldest young master. What else can I say? I will give you 70% of the money and you will give me 30% of the money when I save people."
"I will be four and you will be six. The disciples of our Xuanyuan family are all very strong and will obey your orders."
"Okay, deal."
Zhong Ling'er looked at the others, "Are there any who want to join us? Some have the same conditions as the Xuanyuan family. If you don't join us, you will stay away from us or act on your own."
Saving one person would earn 400,000 spirit stones, which was a good deal. Besides, Zhong Ling'er came forward to ask for the money, and they followed just to save people, so why not do it?
Everyone agreed, so a rescue team was formed. Zhong Ling'er began to distribute purple thunder talismans. If there were not enough, she would draw them on the spot, ensuring that everyone had two.
Then everyone was divided into three groups, each group was given an extra-large spirit beast bag, which had only one function: those who paid money could put the money into the spirit beast bag and take it away, while those who did not pay were left to fend for themselves.
As for how to cross the river, Zhong Ling'er demonstrated directly and took the lead by walking into the river. She kept walking unswervingly until her head was submerged in the water. An illusion is an illusion. When your mind is not affected by it, the illusion will not be of any use.
Of course, there were also people with weak minds who were affected and choked on water a few times. Fortunately, they were rescued by their fellow disciples. After experiencing more, they gradually adapted to living in the illusion.
Not long after, everyone arrived at the edge of the pit of bones.
Zhong Ling'er's clear voice rang out, "Fellow Daoists, you all had a lot of fun. It seems that you have gained a lot. This is truly cause for celebration."
"Who is it? It's Junior Sister. Can't you see? Are we kidding? We are almost dead."
"Junior sister, you are here, please save us!"
"Junior sister, you are finally here. I can't take it anymore. Please save me."
Zhong Ling'er said in surprise, "Ah, so you are in danger again, but I have saved you twice. It doesn't make sense for me to save you every time you are in danger. I can't always work for nothing."
"Since we are all human cultivators, it is not impossible for me to help this time. I will give you one million spirit stones per person. If you agree, I will save you. If not, please rely on your own abilities to get out."
"Zhong Ling'er, you are taking advantage of the situation. Where can I get one million spirit stones for you?"
"Junior sister, can you ask for less? I don't expect you to save me for nothing, but you can't ask for too much."
Zhong Ling'er smiled, "Everyone, you are all elite disciples of various sects and families. Aren't your lives worth a mere one million spirit stones? For big families like the Bai family and the Li family, five million spirit stones are not even worthy of your status. Oh, it doesn't matter if you don't have spirit stones now. I will accept the IOU, but the interest will be half a cent per day."
"Also, I see some people inside can no longer hold on. We'll go in now and take away those who agree, and those who don't agree will stay. Remember, everyone only has one chance to choose, so please grab it."
Zhong Ling'er stuck a purple lightning talisman on herself. Because it was driven by her own spiritual power, purple lightning continued to linger on her body but did not hurt anyone. Then she took the lead and rushed into the battlefield.
The aura of the Purple Sky Divine Thunder really frightened the skeletons, and they all avoided it and dared not move forward.
Zhong Ling'er walked to a monk who had fallen to the ground and asked, "Are you willing to pay one million spirit stones?"
The monk's breath was already weak, and his greatest wish now was to survive, so he immediately said: "I will give you the spirit stone, please save me!"
Zhong Ling'er took out a purple thunder talisman and placed it in his hand, asking the monk to activate it and stick it on himself. Sure enough, the black ghost energy that refused to dissipate at his wound instantly dissipated, and he immediately became alert. Then, before he could react, Zhong Ling'er had picked him up by his belt and threw him into the spirit beast bag.
Zhong Ling'er's movements were very smooth and silky, setting an example for everyone. It seemed that saving people was not difficult at all!
"Have you all learned it? If you have, hurry up. Each Purple Thunder Talisman can only last for a quarter of an hour. If you don't get out of here in a quarter of an hour, you will become a person waiting to be rescued. The rescue fee is also one million spirit stones, not a single one less!"
Everyone immediately became worried. They failed to save the person and ended up being rescued instead, and had to spend a million spirit stones on it. This was something only a fool would do.
Moreover, Zhong Ling'er demonstrated it very clearly. Each of them had two talismans, one for themselves and the remaining one for saving others. Each person had only one chance to save others, so things were very simple. They just had to save the person and then run away quickly.
So the three teams began to act, and figures flashing purple light rushed into the pit of bones.
"Will you pay? If not, then sorry to bother you!"
"Don't bargain with me. I don't have that much time. If you don't want to be rescued, I will find someone else."
"Oh my, he has fainted. Should I save him or not?"
"Ahh, get out of the way! The talisman on me is about to lose its effect!"
The addition of these people caused chaos in the bone pit. The skeletons could not leave the pit, but were afraid of these monks who carried the aura of divine thunder, so they could only keep dodging. This gave some people the opportunity to run away, but they were injured. The black ghost energy kept drilling into their wounds, making them roll on the ground in pain.
