Qin Yuan's expression was gloomy, he shook his head for a while and said: "I know, Lin Cheng is a man with a deer head and rat eyes. At first glance, he is like a grassroots, and he has two sides."
"He is the best at flattering others and adapting to the wind. These are the things he is best at."
"People like him are really villains, and they want to be lured with benefits."
"If he hadn't had earth-type powers, he would be of some use. Otherwise, how could I have kept him till now?"
After a pause, Qin Yuan suddenly said in a sinister voice: "However, since you said that he has second thoughts and is ready to defect to the Great Elder, then after letting him finish his work this time, let him disappear forever!"
…
Two hours later.
In the study room on the second floor, Qin Yuan felt a little more energetic after washing himself and changing into clean clothes.
Although he was seriously injured due to the destruction of a wisp of his soul, his face was much paler than usual, the bloodshot eyes had not faded away, and his fatigue was evident.
Qin Yuan faced the window, holding an ancient book in his hand, lying half on the Taishi chair, with his back to the door of the study.
This was intentional on his part, and he didn't want outsiders to see through his true self.
"Dong dong dong!"
There was a knock on the door.
The young man next to Qin Yuan said: "Come in."
The door opened, and a middle-aged man about 1.7 meters tall stepped in with a smile on his face.
The middle-aged man has an average appearance, but his eyes are very sharp. If I had to describe him, he would be a bit squinty.
People can tell at a glance that this person is not a good person, and he may be harboring bad intentions in his heart!
The middle-aged man Lin Cheng said hello to the young man next to Qin Yuan, and then he sat carelessly on the sofa nearby with his legs crossed.
Seeing this, the young man frowned and secretly thought that Lin Cheng was getting more and more courageous now, and actually sat down while talking to himself, even though the master hadn't spoken yet.
The young man had a bad look on his face, and the more he looked at Lin Cheng, the more displeased he became.
Lin Cheng turned a blind eye to the young man's gaze. He was now in line with the great elder's precious grandson. As long as he worked harder, he could directly join the great elder's command.
At that time, there is no need to pay attention to Qin Yuan, master and apprentice?
Only by following the great elder can you have a future.
However, now he still needs to take orders from Qin Yuan. After all, he is still nominally Qin Yuan's subordinate.
After thinking about it, Lin Cheng went straight to the point and said, "Elder Qin, I wonder what your order was when you came to me?"
Qin Yuan lay on the Grand Master's chair, still facing the window, and said without looking back: "Lin Cheng, I encountered some small troubles this time, and I need you to clean up the mess for me."
"It's just like when I asked you to destroy the stone chamber beneath No. 81 Sunchon City."
"The target this time is a barren mountain to the north of Sunchon City. You go and destroy an ancient tomb and an underground stone chamber in the mountain."
"This matter... it's a piece of cake!" Lin Cheng nodded, and then asked, "Elder Qin, is there anything else that needs special attention?"
After hesitating for a moment, Qin Yuan took out a wooden box from his arms and asked the young man to hand it to Lin Cheng.
Qin Yuan said with a serious face: "This wooden box contains a blood-exploding pill. You can use it for self-defense."
"I'm afraid someone will be guarding the foot of that barren mountain."
"This explosive blood pill can allow you to break through your limits instantly, and it can improve you in all aspects."
"But this method of improvement also has big drawbacks. It cannot last for a long time. It can only last for half an hour to an hour at most. If the time limit is exceeded, there will be strong side effects. After that, you will have more than half of the
The waning period of the moon.”
"So you have to remember, don't use this Blood Exploding Pill if you can. After all, the side effects are quite serious. Don't use it until it's critical."
Lin Cheng played with the wooden box in his hand with a happy face, his hands trembling a little.
This blood-exploding pill is definitely a good thing. Apart from the serious side effects, it is definitely a life-saving medicine in critical situations.
However, Lin Cheng suddenly came to his senses, why did Qin Yuan give him a blood-exploding pill for an ordinary mission?
Obviously, this mission was not as simple as he imagined.
Lin Cheng was a little hesitant. He felt that the wooden box in his hand was a hot potato.
He really wanted to return the wooden box to Qin Yuan and refused the mission outright.
However, the value of a blood-exploding pill is immeasurable.
As if there was a cat's claw scratching his heart, Lin Cheng couldn't bear to put down the wooden box in his hand.
A hint of joking flashed in the eyes of the young man next to Qin Yuan. The fish took the bait, but the bait might not be attractive enough.
Not waiting for Lin Cheng's reply, Qin Yuan became a little impatient, frowned slightly and said: "Lin Cheng, what's wrong? Are there any difficulties?"
"This, this..." Lin Cheng looked confused and hesitated, "Elder Qin, is this mission very dangerous? Otherwise...why did you specially prepare a blood-exploding pill for me?"
"If I encounter an emergency during my mission and have to take the Explosive Blood Pill..."
"Then...didn't I suffer heavy losses?"
"I have to recuperate for a while because I have entered a period of weakness..."
"Look..."
Qin Yuan stretched out his hand to stop him from talking, chuckled and said, "Don't worry, I won't mistreat people who help me with my work."
"If you really take a blood-exploding pill during the mission, I'll give you another pill later...what do you think?"
"Really?!" Li Cheng's eyes lit up and he smiled broadly.
Qin Yuan said with a smile: "That's natural. As long as you help me properly, the benefits will inevitably come to you."
"I will send the specific task location to your mobile phone later. Please handle this matter for me as soon as possible."
"Okay, I'll leave now!"
After saying that, Lin Cheng nodded at the two of them and opened the door directly and went out.
After Lin Cheng left, Qin Yuan put down the ancient book in his hand, stood up slowly, stood in front of the window and looked at Lin Cheng walking out downstairs, with a flash of ridicule in his eyes.
The young man next to Qin Yuan had a joking look on his face, and said with a slightly raised corner of his mouth: "I really hope Lin Cheng can take that 'Blood Exploding Pill', the effect will definitely surprise him."
Qin Yuan didn't say a word, but his expression became colder.
…
At the foot of the barren mountain.
system space.
After Zhou Shiqi was sure that the bead in front of him no longer contained any trace of Qin Yuan's breath, his heart finally fell to the ground.
He didn't delve into the wolf howling sound that came from the system space before. After all, this ghost system couldn't communicate well at all, and he probably wouldn't be able to ask anything useful.
Furthermore, he had been fighting with that old guy Qin Yuan for a long time, and he didn't know what the situation in the outside world was like?
He had to go out quickly. After a long time, Monk Sanjie and the others might start to check his body.
His body is now comparable to that of a master-level expert, and his spiritual consciousness hides a favorability system. Isn't this exploration a bad thing?
