Chapter two hundred and ninety-ninth the benefit of Taoism
"good!"
The 'Mirror' exclaimed loudly, and you can imagine that an old man is nodding kindly like the grandmother next door somewhere.
"My little friend is straightforward, bold and careful, and has a big heart. He will definitely achieve great success in the future!"
Zhang Baoer smiled ‘ashamedly’ and quickly saluted again:
"Senior is so complimentary..."
He didn't want to waste any more time. Strike while the iron is hot is what a man should do, so he said bluntly:
"Senior, if you have something to say, it's okay to say it. If this business can be concluded, I believe that the results of this junior's experience will be enough to satisfy the clan elders!"
Hearing this, everyone in the Dark Night clan was shocked, and secretly thought, "This person must have come out to practice." It turned out that the reason why he was not good at speaking was understandable - the superior clan has the pride of the superior clan, and since
You shouldn't give in easily.
‘Mirror’ smiled and said:
"I'm ashamed to say it, and I'll tell you the truth... The Dark Night clan and the remnants of the Night Demons have been wrestling underground for nearly a hundred thousand years. Now the talents in the clan are withering, and the former clan leader has fallen without being able to pass down the ancestral skills... Now, eh! We are waiting for you.
Guarding the treasure mountain in vain, but not knowing how to use it, is really... eh!"
"Night Stalker?!"
Zhang Baoer was shocked and asked quickly:
"There are night demons deep in Tongtian Peak?!"
After receiving a positive answer, he asked puzzledly:
"In that case, why don't you ask others for help, senior? There should be many strong people in this huge world, right?"
'Mirror' let out a long sigh and explained the reason: It turns out that almost all saints in the world have guarded places, and the guarded places suppress powerful night demons. The night demons are too powerful and difficult to kill.
People also spent a huge price to seal it. The remnants of the night demons refer to those little demons that were once hidden. For nearly 100,000 years, they have been trying every means to release the big demons. Naturally, war is unavoidable.
The most troublesome thing is that although there are not many remnants, if they unite to attack a certain place, the people guarding it will naturally face a fierce battle. When the reinforcements from other places are notified, they will retreat before they can arrive. It can be described as a battle.
Over the years, it must have caused a lot of damage to the people who guarded it. The only good news is that the Night Demon is too powerful to cross the border, and it can still persist so far.
Zhang Baoer frowned and nodded, then he was stunned and asked:
"The treasure mountain that senior mentioned is..."
Having said this, ‘Mirror’ did not hesitate and said bluntly:
"Our clan is not the main clan, it is just a branch that came here. The first-generation clan leader was worried that the clan members lacked restraint and became divided, so he asked the immortals from the main clan who came here to inspect the ancestral skills given by the main clan.
It was compiled into Taoist scriptures, and no one other than the clan leader could know the translation, and the former clan leader died in his prime...this inheritance was ended!"
Hearing this, Zhang Baoer suddenly realized and felt very happy. She had finally asked the right person. For Zhang, it was easy to talk. But just when he was about to get happy, he calmed down and asked calmly:
"Maybe I can help with this, but..."
The 'mirror' trembled again, smooth and shining, and said quickly with a voice of great joy:
"What?! My friend, you are willing to lend me the translation dictionary of the Taoist language of the Shang clan?! If you have any requests, my dear friend, just tell me!"
Zhang Baoer shook his head. He didn't know whether the other party didn't hear the last word 'but' or deliberately ignored it, but he had to put it out again:
"Senior, please be patient and please allow me to finish my words!"
"...Little friend, please tell me!"
"There is a prerequisite, who is the current patriarch of the noble family?!"
"Um?!"
All the people in the dark night were puzzled for a while. After a while, the beautiful woman stood up and bowed:
"To be honest, brother, this little girl is not talented and she is the current clan leader!"
Seeing Zhang Baoer nodding, she hesitated and said:
"What does Brother Shi mean?"
Zhang Baoer grinned and said loudly:
"Swear to the heavens and the earth to prove that you are the clan leader. All four of you need to swear an oath!"
"What?!"
Four voices sounded in unison, and the three people present stared at Zhang Baoer with unkind expressions. The 'Mirror' even said coldly:
"Little friend, what do you mean?!"
Zhang Baoer narrowed his eyes and said without giving in:
"There is no dictionary of Taoist translations, but the mere Taoist words are not difficult for the juniors. As soon as the juniors have passed through the Lingzhi tribe, the elders will teach them... But!"
Having said this, he sharpened his eyes, stared at the three of them and said coldly:
"There are no rules. Juniors can swear not to steal, but the person they receive must be the leader of your clan. As for..."
"Brother Shi! I'm afraid it's inappropriate!"
The beautiful woman interrupted him nervously, but as soon as she finished speaking, the 'mirror' shouted:
"Shuang'er!"
It turned out that her nickname was Shuang'er. When she heard Mirror's shout, she lowered her head and saluted Zhang Bao'er to express her apology and said nothing more. Mirror then asked Zhang Bao'er with a smile:
"I'm afraid my little friend's identity is not simple... I hope you can forgive me for my ignorance!"
Zhang Baoer nodded gently.
‘Mirror’ pondered:
"What I mean, little friend... is that you only tell the clan leader, and you have no control over what the clan leader will do after that... right?"
Zhang Baoer continued to nodded gently.
Seeing this, the 'mirror' was overjoyed. A flash of light stopped in front of Zhang Baoer. The mirror already showed a pale, wrinkled old face with only skin and bones. Because it was smiling, it looked a bit eerie;
However, the eyes in the sunken eye sockets are very bright, like an old tree demon.
"I also ask my little friend to rest in the clan for a few days. I will give you an answer within three to five days!"
What he said... was very polite, not at all as arrogant as before.
In addition, the joy in her words is extremely strong, which shows that she is determined to win this transaction!
But...a transaction is a transaction. Zhang asked instead:
"The sincerity of the juniors has been given, what about the seniors?"
Hearing this, the old demon in the mirror fell into deep thought, then looked at Zhang Bao'er and reported her price. Since it was told through a voice transmission, others did not know the details.
Zhang Baoer shook his head and said with a smile:
"Senior, juniors are not talented, be more realistic and real! It is best to be able to see and get it!"
Only then did everyone suddenly realize that what the old demon had promised was an illusory 'big gift'.
The old demon in the mirror hesitated for a while, then looked at Zhang Baoer, nodded and thought.
After a while, seeing that she was still thinking, Zhang Baoer said with a smile:
"Senior, junior also said it, it's just a little effort, there's no need to think higher... Haha!"
Having said this, he raised the corners of his mouth:
"Plus a big favor from your clan!"
"really?!"
The old demon looked horrified and couldn't believe it, but then he was overjoyed - because he saw Zhang Baoer nod, and then said two words firmly: seriously.
