Zhao Yulin felt that Shenlong was like a weird uncle who was using candy to trick children.
There was no doubt that absorbing another golden talisman would increase his strength, and Zhao Yulin naturally did not want to miss such a good opportunity.
But Zhao Yulin, with his many years of experience in the mercenary world, told himself that this matter was definitely not as simple as Shenlong said, and it was definitely not something that could be solved by just keeping your heart.
"What are you still hesitating about? After absorbing the golden talisman, your strength will at least double that of your prime." Shenlong threw out the bait again.
Faced with such a huge temptation, Zhao Yulin would be lying if he said he was not tempted.
"Is there really no problem?" For a moment, Zhao Yulin was in a dilemma, not knowing how to choose.
"I guarantee it with my personal integrity, there will be absolutely no problem." Shenlong said confidently.
Zhao Yulin secretly complained: "You guarantee it with your personal integrity? You are just a spirit attached to the golden talisman, you don't even have a human form, how can you have any personality."
However, Zhao Yulin did not say this out loud, but pretended to think about it. After a long time, he seemed to have made a decision and replied: "Okay, then it's settled." The
reason why Zhao Yulin made this decision was that he could improve his strength, and the other was to consider Dong Cheng's condition. The
reason why Dong Cheng became what he is now is completely because he was affected by the golden talisman representing evil. If Zhao Yulin can absorb the golden talisman in Dong Cheng's body, Dong Cheng will naturally return to normal, which can be regarded as a good thing.
"Wait a minute." Zhao Yulin stopped the dragon that was about to attack, and said to Dong Cheng: "I can make you return to normal, but your current strength will all disappear, are you willing?"
Before starting, Zhao Yulin wanted to hear Dong Cheng's opinion. If Dong Cheng didn't want to give up his current strength, Zhao Yulin would not force him.
Dong Cheng was stunned when he heard Zhao Yulin's words, thinking that he had heard it wrong. After reacting, he immediately nodded repeatedly: "Of course I am willing, as long as I can return to normal, I agree to any conditions."
Dong Cheng really wanted to live a normal life, especially after knowing that he had a son like Li Xiaofu, losing his strength was nothing. He now has a strong strength, but he is sealed here. What can he do with a strong strength? It is better to put everything aside and be an ordinary person. Being ordinary does not mean being unhappy.
"Okay." Zhao Yulin nodded and said, "Since you are willing, then it is as you wish. Stay relaxed and don't resist."
Zhao Yulin didn't know whether this was right or not, but according to past experience, it would be good for Dong Cheng to stay relaxed.
"Let's get started." After finishing his business with Dong Cheng, Zhao Yulin gave instructions to Shenlong: "What should I do?"
"Just sit cross-legged and let the true qi run according to the established route." Shenlong said.
"Okay." Zhao Yulin responded and immediately did what Shenlong said.
The absorption process was not complicated, and there were no earth-shaking scenes. It was no different from Zhao Yulin's usual practice.
Zhao Yulin had been trying to keep the Qi flowing in his body, and wanted to ask Shenlong several times, but he finally held back.
"It's OK, get up." Just when Zhao Yulin was about to lose his patience, Shenlong finally spoke.
"Is that all?" Zhao Yulin stood up and felt it, and found that there was no difference from before, and his strength had not improved at all. He couldn't help but wonder: "It's no different from before."
"How can it be so fast?" Shenlong said unhappily: "It has just been absorbed, and it needs a digestion process. You will feel the benefits after a while."
"Is that so." Zhao Yulin nodded.
But he was still a little disappointed in his heart. He thought there would be an immediate effect, but he didn't know that he had to wait for a while.
"Thank you." Dong Cheng came to Zhao Yulin and thanked him. After losing the golden talisman, the seal had lost its effect on him. His thanks came from the bottom of his heart.
"You're welcome." Zhao Yulin waved his hand: "There's nothing to thank or not. I also benefited from this matter. It's nothing more than an equal exchange."
This is the truth. Zhao Yulin really thought so in his heart. He didn't want to accept Dong Cheng's thanks easily.
However, who benefited more from this matter, him or Dong Cheng, is a matter of opinion. Maybe in Dong Cheng's view, it is more important to get rid of the imprisonment and regain a normal life.
"I will explain your situation to the Dragon Sword later. You can go back and live your life steadily." Zhao Yulin said.
Dong Cheng was worried that Dragon Sword's people would bring up the past after he left. Zhao Yulin's words were like a reassurance to him, and he immediately bowed down.
Zhao Yulin quickly supported Dong Cheng: "What are you doing?"
"Don't hold me back." Dong Cheng said: "I have nothing now, and I don't know how to repay your kindness. If you don't let me bow down, I will feel bad."
"If you do this again, I will be angry." Zhao Yulin said with a frown: "Maybe I will need you in the future, so don't refuse then."
Seeing that Zhao Yulin was really angry, Dong Cheng didn't dare to insist anymore.
Zhao Yulin didn't just say this to ease Dong Cheng's heart. After all, Dong Cheng was also a member of the Dragon Sword before the accident, and he was a very good one. Maybe Zhao Yulin will really need him in the future.
Although Zhao Yulin is mixed in the world of mercenaries where the strong prey on the weak and speak with strength, he never looks down on anyone who has no fighting ability, otherwise there wouldn't be so many people without fighting ability gathered around him, and the team ability of those people in his team can be almost ignored.
After saying goodbye to Dong Cheng, Zhao Yulin drove to the location of the Haolian family.
He has been out for quite a while, and he doesn't know how He Qinglang and the others are doing now.
Originally, Zhao Yulin came out to check on the Chu brothers, but he didn't find them. Instead, he unexpectedly awakened the dragon and recovered his strength, and also absorbed another golden talisman. Zhao Yulin didn't know whether he should be disappointed or happy.
The benefit of recovering strength was first reflected in driving. When Zhao Yulin came, he only used 30% of the car's performance, and when he returned, he used 70% and seemed to be at ease.
As a result, Zhao Yulin rushed back much faster than when he came out.
"How is it? Did you find out anything?" He Qinglang asked impatiently as soon as they met.
Zhao Yulin shook his head: "No, there was nothing at the last location where they appeared."
Although this was a result that had been expected, He Qinglang was still somewhat disappointed when he got the exact answer.
"Don't act like someone owes you two million." Zhao Yulin couldn't help but tease He Qinglang when he saw him acting bitter and resentful.
"You are so relaxed." He Qinglang said unhappily, "Without the support of the Chu brothers, how can I complete this mission? It seems that my record of never failing will end here."
"After all this time, this is what you are worried about." Zhao Yulin pouted, "What's the point of that broken record? Can I eat or drink?"
"I can't eat or drink, but it sounds good to say it out." He Qinglang replied.
Although he said so, He Qinglang was not a superficial person. The winning streak was nothing to him. What he really cared about was the mission itself. However, he was so proud that he naturally would not explain it to Zhao Yulin and the others.
"Childish!" Zhao Yulin said, "Don't worry, my injuries have healed and my strength has fully recovered. Even without the Chu brothers, it shouldn't hinder your business."
"That's good." He Qinglang replied subconsciously, but immediately realized that something was wrong: "What did you say? Your strength has recovered? Are you telling the truth?"
A series of questions were thrown out, and Zhao Yulin wanted to interrupt but couldn't. Haolian Lingyun and Huang Shuanghu also looked at Zhao Yulin in shock.
"What's wrong with you? Did you see a ghost? Why do you look like that?" Zhao Yulin naturally understood why everyone was shocked, but he still made a joke.
Everyone nodded heavily at the same time and replied in unison: "It was indeed a ghost."
Except for Huang Shuanghu, everyone present knew Zhao Yulin's situation very well. It was not so easy to recover. The hundreds of years old wild ginseng was still in Sun Leling's hands. This was only one of the medicines that helped Zhao Yulin recover. Some medicines had never been heard of.
But Zhao Yulin went out and came back and said that he had recovered. This was too unbelievable.
"How did you do it?" Haolian Lingyun asked.
"I guess it was a little adventure." Zhao Yulin couldn't explain the specific situation in detail. At least he didn't want to let anyone know that he had absorbed another golden talisman too early, so he could only answer vaguely.
"Well, anyway, it's a good thing to be able to recover." Haolian Lingyun saw that Zhao Yulin had something to hide, so he didn't ask any more questions.
"That's right." He Qinglang also agreed with Haolian Lingyun's statement, but he immediately sighed and said, "Alas! What a pity for my wild ginseng."
"Get lost!" Zhao Yulin said unhappily, "That wild ginseng was the exchange condition for you to persuade us to cooperate with Dragon Sword. It's mine after you gave it to me. Why are you so sorry for it?" "
Uh..." He Qinglang smiled awkwardly, "Can you not be so overbearing? I just said that casually. Do you have to react so strongly?"
"That thing was not yours in the first place. What's there to say?" Haolian Lingyun added a knife without losing the opportunity.
"Well, I can't argue with you. Let's study the next action plan." It was obviously not a wise choice to fight one against two, so He Qinglang quickly changed the subject.
"Do you want to kill them or live?" Zhao Yulin asked when he heard about the action plan.
In his opinion, it is much easier to destroy the enemy than to keep them alive.
