The first thousand and ninety-six chapters tough rejection
"What are you thinking about, brother?"
Jianmu Zhiling blinked his big eyes, looked at Lin Ze and asked.
Lin Ze came back to his senses, smiled and said: "I am sighing at how big the world is, and how full of wonders there are."
"When I saw you a few days ago, you couldn't even form a human form. But today, when I saw you, you were able to transform into a human form."
The spirit of Jianmu smiled and narrowed his eyes, his eyebrows as thin as a crescent moon: "If it weren't for my brother's careful care, how could Jianmu be where he is today? I have to thank my brother."
Lin Ze didn't take it seriously and said: "It's not about taking careful care. At most, everyone takes what they need. You don't have to take it to heart."
The spirit of Jianmu was keenly aware that Lin Ze was a little cold towards him, and couldn't help but said sadly: "Brother seems to hate Jianmu a little?"
Dislike it?
No, I just don’t have a good impression.
Just like it is difficult for ordinary people to like the piranha that preys on humans, Lin Ze is not interested in the Jianmu that swallowed up the Tathagata Buddha, even if the matter ultimately lies with Taoist saints.
"No, I like Jianmu very much, I just don't know how to express it."
Lin Ze denied it flatly. He was a little unsure whether Jianmu's spirit would go crazy and want to swallow him together once he admitted that he hated Jianmu.
Lin Ze never felt burdened when doing things like this, which were done with open eyes and lied, and for free.
Who would have thought that Jianmu Ling would actually do this, with a look of joy on his face: "Really?"
"real."
A successful lie often requires many lies to support it. Now that Lin Ze has taken the first step, there is no reason to give up halfway.
Jianmu Zhiling tilted his head and showed a cute side face: "Then can brother promise Jianmu something?"
Lin Ze frowned slightly, he really knew how to beat the snake and follow the stick, and he did not forget to make some excessive demands.
"No matter what you say, as long as I can do it, I won't hesitate."
Lin Ze Zhengyi solemnly made a promise. If he can do it, he will have nothing to say. If he can't, forget it.
Jianmu Spirit said happily: "That's great, Jianmu wants my brother to help me find an item that is extremely important to me."
"That item is called Jianmu's Heart. It is a divine object created by the concentration of the essence of Jianmu's previous life. If Jianmu obtains it, he will be able to stand upright against the sky and the earth as he did in his previous life, reaching the heavens and the Nine Nethers below."
"If my brother can help Jianmu find this item, Jianmu will remember his kindness on the tree trunk and bless him forever."
Lin Ze touched his chin and said: "Jianmu's Heart, I have never heard of this thing. I don't know where to get it?"
Jianmu Spirit whispered: "Jianmu checked the memories of his past life and learned that his body in his previous life was cut off by the demon clan. If there is no accident, Jianmu's heart should have fallen into their hands. My brother carefully inquired about the movements of the demon clan.
, I guess there will be clues.”
Lin Ze touched his nose: "That's it. I'm afraid it won't be found out for a while. You have to wait patiently for a while."
"Don't worry, I will do my best to track down this object. Once there is any news, I will notify you immediately."
As soon as he finished speaking, a voice echoed in the ears of Lin Ze and Jianmu Ling: "Jianmu's heart is with me. If the Human Emperor wants it, I will give it to you now."
Lin Ze's face was gloomy, and he suddenly felt like someone was plotting against him.
"I have thanked the Demon Master for his kindness, but I need to correct this matter. It is the Jianmu Sacred Tree that wants the Heart of Jianmu, not me."
"The demon master can just give her the Heart of Jianmu directly. If there are any conditions, he can also put them forward to her."
Kunpeng smiled lightly and said: "Since it is said to be a gift, it is naturally a free gift. How can there be any other conditions?"
"But let's start with the dirty talk. I will only give it to you. If anyone else wants it, you have the final say whether to give it to me or not. It has nothing to do with me."
Lin Ze was silent for a long time, then suddenly smiled and said: "As the saying goes, no reward will be given without merit. After thinking about it, I really can't bear such an expensive gift, so I might as well not give it up."
"The demon master takes good care of it. You may meet another destined person in the future."
It's obvious that I dug a deep hole in front of me, do you really think that I lost my mind and jumped into it stupidly?
The Tathagata Buddha has been swallowed up by you, and even the dregs are left. When I have countless lives, you can't die no matter how you plot?
"Brother, didn't you promise me that you would find Jianmu's heart for me?"
Jianmu Zhilington looked like he was about to cry, and his voice was gentle. I really felt pity for him and couldn't bear it.
Lin Ze shrugged and said indifferently: "Can't I regret it?"
Jianmu Zhilin suddenly froze on the spot, looking at Lin Ze with a dull expression, as if he had recognized the wrong person.
Lin Ze took in Jianmu Zhiling's reaction and couldn't help but fall into reflection. What was wrong with him? Why did they think they would be kidnapped by morality so easily?
Do you look like a good person by nature?
"Ahem, did the Emperor not hear clearly? What I said was free gift."
"The Human Emperor only needs to integrate the Jianmu Heart into the trunk of the Jianmu Divine Tree, and he will receive a large amount of heavenly rewards..."
Lin Ze waved his hand and directly interrupted Kunpeng's words: "Hasn't the Demon Master heard that free things are the most expensive in the world?"
"You can go ahead and play whatever tricks you want. I don't want to get involved. Likewise, don't think about forcing me to do anything."
As soon as Lin Ze finished speaking, the atmosphere in the room was almost stagnant to the extreme.
At this time, Tao Sheng's voice came from afar, breaking the silence and saying: "Lin Ze, promise him."
After hearing this, Lin Ze looked up and looked toward the Kunlun Mountains in the west, smiled softly, and said firmly: "No."
The Taoist Sage said slightly displeased: "This matter will be of immeasurable benefit to you."
Lin Ze once again clearly refused: "No."
No matter how many benefits he has, compared to his life, he is just a scumbag.
This is just a trick to deceive children. In my previous life, I actually went to nine-year compulsory education.
Can you fool me?
"Lin Ze, you heard my teacher say that you are the emperor of the world, and only you are qualified to send the heart of Jianmu into the body of the sacred tree of Jianmu, and then pray to heaven and earth to help her refine it. Only in this way can transcendence
It is possible for opportunities to appear.”
"My teacher will not harm you. You just do what my teacher teaches you. After you succeed, my teacher will give you an opportunity to transcend the realm."
"Don't you want to transcend heaven and earth and gain great freedom and freedom?"
Lin Ze refused directly without thinking: "No, what the disciple yearns for is a peaceful life. Living in this world is quite good. There is no need to be detached."
The atmosphere inside the venue became stagnant again.
"Lin Ze, aren't you worried about establishing a new emperor as your teacher?"
There was already a bit of anger in Dao Sheng's tone.
Lin Ze shook his head: "The disciple thinks that there is no one in the world who is more suitable to be the human emperor than the disciple. If the teacher can find a suitable candidate, it will be no problem for the disciple to abdicate in favor of a worthy person."
"If the teacher is looking for a person with no virtue or talent, don't blame the disciple for not recognizing him."
