Chapter 146 The Price of Rescue

"Hahaha, Miss Gambling Summer is well-informed, but calling herself 'untalented' is overly modest." He poked Qi and said with a smile, "I also heard that this tea is made only once a year, and only the first-spring newborn heads are picked.

Green buds, one bud with three or four leaves, are plump and plump. Strict standards are adopted to adapt to local conditions. They are only picked in fine weather to ensure fresh and tender leaf tongues. Three or four leaves with open faces are carefully selected, with no leaf surface water or damage. 20 years of experience in tea

Picking is done slowly by workers, who are well versed in the nature of tea. They do not hold their hands tightly and do not tip the basket over. Then they are slowly hand-crafted by tea masters. After 14 intricate processes, they transform and stabilize the unique flavor of the rock aroma. Using lychee charcoal single cage type

Refined and slow-roasted over slow fire, each piece of tea is heated evenly and deeply, making the tea soup more fragrant and thicker. When brewing, the floral aroma and rock charm are majestic, gushing out and condensed in a cup, bringing a rich sense of layering, sweetness and richness.

It lingers on the tongue for a long time and is a rare celebrity tea."

"Brother A'ao, what on earth are they talking about?" Shangying was confused. A'ao didn't realize it either and looked at Beibi.

Beibi glanced at him: "10% truth, 30% competition..."

"Sixty percent shrimp is bullshit." Youluo interrupted, rolling her eyes. "But this tea is surprisingly delicious." The blind man over there had already finished his drink and wanted to drink more.

As for Fou Hong, he was sitting on Chang Ou's lap, enjoying her slapping and feeding him tea, and said in a cute voice: "But thanks to sister Qi Xia, we will not be regarded as ignorant country bumpkins."

She has been paying attention to Grate Pregnancy consciously or unconsciously, and her mind is not on tea.

"Okay, it's time to get down to business." Gie You put down the teacup, "What does your adventure group want from me?"

Bei Bi pretended not to know: "Didn't you take the initiative to find us?"

"Haha, I did take the initiative to find you, but after seeing your reaction, I think it is more important to understand your affairs first so that we can reciprocate politely."

There is no point in being pretentious at this time. Bei Pi replied: "We want you to help us save a person...or in other words, a demon."

"Monster? Alien?" Gie You didn't mean to be angry at all, "You should be very clear about the position of the Xianfu Cult. However, you still found me, the head of the Xianfu Cult, to do things that go against what I have always stood for. What makes you

Are you so confident that I can agree?"

"It's a pity that I don't have the confidence. But we can pay some fees. I just hope you don't regard money as dirt."

"Hahaha," Gianyou smiled heartily, "I didn't expect Mr. Bei to be a cheerful person. Indeed, if the price is enough, the life of a mere foreigner is not impossible to save. As for the price, it is naturally related to the difficulty of treatment. It depends on you.

You have come all the way here just to find me, so I’m afraid it will be difficult to treat him, right?”

"Insecticide 110303, have you heard of it?" "Isn't this the so-called 'pest buster' that is very popular in pharmacist circles? Of course I have heard of it. Could it be that the insects you want me to save are the insects infected by this poison?"

Demon?" "The leaf moth demon was successfully escaped in the early stage. He was poisoned by inhalation on January 28. The dose is unknown and he is currently in a coma." "Can you take me to have a look?" "Can you please tell me how much it will cost first?"

Haha, I'm not interested in money. But thinking about it, it shouldn't be difficult to negotiate what I originally wanted to do with you. I'd better go and have a look first."

The body of the Flesh Insect had been in the car. Grate pregnant looked at it and said: "It can actually last for 3 days. It's really strong in vitality, but it is almost completely eroded by the toxins. It can't last a week. To put it bluntly, I can use my god

She can use magic to forcibly remove the toxin, but the eroded vitality cannot be recovered. Her lifespan will be greatly shortened. Optimistically, it will not exceed one year. What, do you still need me to take action? "

"One year...what..." Everyone felt a little heavy, but it was somewhat expected. Zerg species generally have short lifespans, and they are eroded by special insecticides. It is indeed a good result to have one year of life left.

"So you can tell us what the price will be, right?" Beibi still maintained the necessary calmness as a group leader.

"This price cannot be paid with your entire adventure group. I only need two people." Gieyou said sternly, "Alao, Shanying, can you come with me?"

"Hey? Looking for us?" Shangying never expected such a result.

Beibi: "Since it concerns the two of you, everything is up to you to decide. But please remember that we are a team. Don't be misled by him and think that you can only bear everything by yourself."

A Lao nodded: "For Sister Lierou, I will be sensible. Let's go, Shangying."

The three of them entered a secret room. "Do you know about the 'Chong Brigade'?" Gianyou turned around, startling both of them.

"It's finally here...it's so fast..." Ao gritted his teeth, these two words evoked countless horrific memories for him.

But Ying Ying stepped forward: "What's going on? Who are you? Are you sent by Chong Brigade to arrest us?"

"Oh? It seems that you have experienced a lot of unbearable past events in the trial field." Qi You said lightly, "This is not surprising. After all, you are the last and most special ones predicted in the Book of Revelation.

The tester and the tester."

"The most special? What do you mean?" "You are a trial officer, right? The so-called special means that you have extremely rare special abilities and huge development potential. The potential is easy to understand. Are you in the late stage of Zhenmu now? Maybe you are

I don’t feel like a genius, but what I can tell you is that the vast majority of people in this world who have the opportunity to cultivate to this level are over 200 years old. If you think about your own age, you will understand what potential is." "Oshi Ao

Brother you?"

"This year is 26." Otsuo finally calmed down.

"You're only 26 years old!" The calmness of Gie Zheng was disturbed by this number, and his eyes shone a little: "I have tried my best to overestimate your talent, but you are not even 30 years old yet. This is really amazing.

Unimaginable. Are you really only 26 years old? Are you sure?"

"I'm sorry if you don't believe me. You haven't answered yet. What is your relationship with Chonglu?" A Lao asked cautiously.

"Me? Speaking of which, I was once a trialist, and now I have become a member of the Chong Brigade. My purpose, which is the price you ask me for, is to ask you to join the Chong Brigade."

"Join? Chong Brigade?!" That's what Oshio didn't want to hear the last thing. What happened at the trial ground made him not want to have anything to do with Chong Brigade. But now for Lierou...

"To be honest, I don't want to force you." Gie Youheng said calmly, "As long as you overcome the psychological barriers, joining Chong Brigade will not be a burden for you. Now you are still in the stage of rapid growth, with the help of the organization

, your talent will not die in an accident before you can realize your potential. Otherwise, do you think, why are there always far fewer strong people than geniuses? Now you don't need to take on any actual tasks for the organization, all the tasks assigned to you are huge

The degree will focus on the consideration of your own growth. The power of the organization, even if it is only a branch on this planet, is beyond your imagination. Let me tell you a little bit, the arrogant Snake King and Gua Xia back then were also

He was a member of the organization, and his death was due to his betrayal and punishment from the organization."

Shanying didn't know the legend of Gua Xia, but A Lao knew it very well. Gua Xia's death was actually the plan of this brigade, which is undoubtedly an extremely powerful organization. Indeed, as Gie You said, if there are no psychological barriers, no matter whether it is

For the sake of his own development or for the sake of meat, Otsu can't think of a reason to refuse. If asked what special thing can make such a powerful organization actively invite to join, Otsu can really come up with four things: passed the trial arranged by the organization, weird

Powerful combination skills, the mysterious Master Liao Xin, and his own cultivation talent.

Seeing that A Lao was still hesitating, Gie You continued: "You are still thinking about your mosquito girl, right? As long as you join the Chong Brigade and promise not to betray the organization, the mosquito girl can be given to you directly, intact, with no other conditions attached.

Meeting this small requirement is the benefit that those who pass the trial deserve."

Upon hearing this, Yanying couldn't hold it in any longer: "Brother A'ao, let's... join?"

Gie You hadn't finished her sentence yet: "By the way, there is one more special thing about you, that is, your trial officer has the same level of cultivation as you, and looks about the same age. This situation is very unusual. As far as I know

As you know, other trial officers in the organization died early because their cultivation and lifespan could not keep up with the trial officer. Your situation probably has some special significance and will definitely receive special attention from the organization.

"

"Does it have a special meaning..." A string in Ao's heart seemed to be broken, and he lay on the sofa: "It's so ironic, I don't know how many times, I have to use 'a man can bend and stretch' to explain his cowardice and incompetence

I have to make excuses for compromise, and this excuse is so bad that I don’t even believe it myself.”

Seeing that A'ao was showing signs of relenting, Gie You continued to increase her pressure: "In order to make you truly willing to join the Chong Brigade, I haven't mentioned the last reason yet. A'ao, you know, you are the lone star of the evil spirits."

"The Lonely Star of Heavenly Evil?" "The Lonely Star of Heavenly Evil, shrouded in misfortune. If my prediction is correct, A'ao, you should have been plagued by bad luck since birth, and it will also affect the important people around you. Am I right?

"

"This..." Oshiro was moved. Both of his parents died when he was young, and he had never seen each other. His childhood life was also extremely difficult. After leaving the Phosphorus Society, he joined a new adventure group not long after he was trapped in the underground trial ground. Through

After a terrifying trial, it was the first mission in the new adventure group. Sister Lierou was poisoned... Thinking about it this way, it was just like what Gie You said, the lone star of the evil. But A Lao still argued: "It is indeed very bad."

Unlucky, but not entirely." Of course he was referring to the time he spent with Li Rong, Chuo Liao Xin and others. It was the only truly carefree time in his life, and it was probably very possible.

It was the last ray of light that kept him from collapse in the nightmare underground training ground.

Gie You thought for a while: "This is not impossible. The evil star is not unsolvable. Powerful people with extremely high cultivation levels, as well as people with great fortune and wisdom, can suppress the evil star and prevent it from causing harm. It seems that

You once met some very suave people, who helped you suppress them for a while. Unfortunately, the evil star will not be willing to be suppressed all the time. If you can't defeat the power of suppressing him, it can make you leave. After you stay away from a certain distance, you can recover.

Come out to cause trouble. But now that you are in my big Jiaogu Temple, with the goddess Liao Zhi suppressing it, the evil star can only be suppressed for the time being. Once you leave, you will undoubtedly start to be plagued by bad luck again. Only by joining the Chong Brigade can you get the support of Lord Liao Zhi.

Only with divine blessings can bad luck be suppressed for a longer period of time without geographical restrictions. Look, since entering the Dajiugu Temple, everything seems to have gone smoothly unexpectedly? In fact, this is a normal situation, and everything before has not changed.

If everything goes smoothly, it is mostly caused by evil stars. Otherwise, even if everything is not smooth sailing, it will be enough to turn danger into safety or return to the original state without leaving permanent pain."

A'ao was silent. Shanying said blankly: "So that's it...Brother A'ao, if we don't join the Chong Brigade, wouldn't it be very dangerous? And it would also hurt everyone? Then..."

"No need to say any more, I'll just join." Ao lowered his head and said in a low voice.

"Wise choice." Gie You seemed to have breathed a sigh of relief, "I know you are still a little suffocated mentally, but in this life, there are always some hurdles that must be overcome sooner or later, otherwise you will not be able to move forward. By the way, this

It is best to keep this matter secret from your companions. Although I am very optimistic about you, this Chong Brigade organization is not my personal one. Keeping confidentiality is a basic requirement for other members to recognize you. This also makes it easier for me to spread the word about the organization.

The resources are tilted towards you without being hindered.”

Shangying helped A Lao, who was in a daze, back to the group members. Beibi frowned: "What did Qi You do to you?"

Shangying was silent for a few seconds and said softly: "Actually, it's nothing. It's just that he was touched by some bad memories. You can ask Miao Zheng for details."

Gie You followed behind, smiling as kindly as ever: "Zhao Qi, go and hand over the mosquito girl to A'ao."

Zhiqi seemed unprepared and said in shock: "Are you really going to let her go? She is a rare outstanding individual..."

"It is precisely because of excellence that it has investment value." Gie You's smile remained unchanged, but her tone did not allow for refutation.

"...Okay, Ao Shanying, you two come with me."

Beibi refused to give up: "Your Excellency Gie Young, as the leader of the group, I think it is my responsibility to understand what you did to my two members."

"Haha, Mr. Bei is also a responsible group leader. No wonder he can be followed by them. It's actually nothing. We just left each other's contact information so that we can help each other in the future. As for the little friend A'ao, he is old and reckless.

, I unintentionally touched some of his memories, so as compensation, I gave him the mosquito girl he had always missed, unconditionally. What does the leader think of this?"

"It doesn't matter..." Beibi couldn't refute anything. If Qi You didn't lie, these are indeed blameless. But he always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't doubt the other party without any basis, so he could only

Give up.

At this time, Gie You finally seemed to notice Coarse Weasel's vague observation: "This knight is Coarse Weasel, right? Since we are destined, why not come to the secret room to talk about it?"

"good."

The rough weasel agreed without much thought, but was stopped by Qi Shu: "I'm going too, and you're not allowed to hide anything from me."

"But this matter is really..." "I don't care. Weasel, I have long felt that your life experience is unusual. Seeing that you have been unwilling to mention it, I thought it was just some sad past events. But since it is now related to the first abdomen

The teacher is involved, so I can no longer leave it alone! We have agreed that we will always rely on each other, how can I leave you alone again!"

Gie You turned around and said, "It's okay for Miss Qishu to follow you, but you just have to be mentally prepared."

"It doesn't matter, I'm not afraid of getting into trouble. Ruo Weasel, let's go!" So Ru Weixi had no choice but to follow Gui Wen together with him.



"Sister Mosquito!" Shanying happily hugged the released mosquito girl.

Along the way, A Lao's spirit has basically recovered: "Zhao Qi, can this collar be taken off?"

"I'm sorry, this won't work." Zha Qi became indifferent after completing the task given by Gie Weng. "In the Theocracy, non-slave aliens are not allowed to walk through the city. If you don't wear a collar, it will be regarded as an intrusion.

Eliminate the alien race. But anyway, I have given you the token. No one can use that collar to subdue the mosquito girl except you. Oh, by the way, you'd better not try to give the token to the mosquito girl. If a slave himself

Holding your own token will also be treated as a foreign invasion and excluded, right?" Zhi Qi said and walked away.

Mosquito Girl was very tolerant, and said with a charming smile: "It doesn't matter, A'ao is my master! If I make a mistake and make my master unhappy, please feel free to punish me!"

Abao smiled and put away the token: "I said, I want to become a partner with you, Mosquito Girl. From now on, just call me by my first name. Don't call me master, it sounds uncomfortable."

"Okay A Lao." Mosquito Girl followed the good advice.

Watching Mosquito Girl and Sunying, two beauties with very different styles playing around, Oshi Ao felt a lot better. "That's right, no matter what difficulties and setbacks you have, you have to get over them. Being entangled in the moment makes you give up on the future.

All kinds of good things are stupid."



"Qishu, you..." Rough Weasel supported Qishu, who suddenly fainted as soon as he entered the house, and glared at Gizheng: "What did you do!"

"Don't worry, there are just some things, it's better not to let her know. I believe you will agree with me soon. As long as you leave this room, the spell will be lifted." "Who are you?

"

"Haha, I should be the one to ask this, Coarse Weasel, do you recognize me?" The Grate pregnant scepter tapped lightly, and the holy light suddenly emitted from behind, warm and solemn. Even though they were similar in height, Coarse Weasel instantly felt that the person in front of him was

Human beings are supreme. There was a sudden movement behind Coarse Weasel, and the holy light gathered into a pair of light gray-red wings. Gianyou's expression was solemn: "General Coarse Weasel, I have never forgotten your name."

The rough weasel struggled to pronounce the words: "See... Lord God King!"

"It's strange, why I didn't die." Gie You, or God King Qianlu, looked down at the rough weasel who was kneeling on one knee. "The traitor Gua Xia did almost kill me, but he has the blessing of the goddess.

, I sacrificed most of my cultivation and managed to escape by relying on the Blood Escape Technique, and I have not fully recovered until now. I have been missing for such a long time, so I guess the new God King should have taken over. But you should understand, Rough Weasel, that I have

Without death or the Zen position, the so-called new god king is invalid."

"I would like to hear the imperial edict." Coarse Weasel is a general of the Divine Army. When Gua Xia's self-destruction spread to him, he also narrowly escaped death and his cultivation level dropped significantly.

"Very good." Gantie smiled with satisfaction, "Don't worry, I won't be as reckless as before. I have also reflected on the disastrous defeat back then. I still need to expand slowly, otherwise I will only make enemies on all sides. Today's world is no longer the same

In that world, heroes rose up and competed in all directions. Each major clan had leaders who were no less powerful than me, so they had to act with caution. I didn’t expect to meet you today. There are no orders yet. You can continue as you were.

If anything happens, I will inform you separately. Go ahead."

"My subordinates, please retire." The rough weasel saluted respectfully, hugged Du Xia and left.

A Laoshengying brought Mosquito Girl out, and saw Coarse Weasel and Gambling Summer arguing. "What on earth did you say?" Gambling Pulled Coarse Weasel's collar, "Do you have to hide it from me? I'll just

So unworthy of your trust?"

"No." Rough Weasel looked troubled, "There are too many involved..."

At this time, Gie Youheng appeared: "Without further delay, since we have reached an agreement, let me rescue your companions."

"I won't argue with you for the time being." Du Xia was still very angry.

In a basement, there is an eleven-sided magic circle carved on the ground, and a big moth is lying in it, motionless. "You must have arrived in time. If it is delayed for another two or three days, even I will not be able to do it."

There is nothing we can do." Gie You summoned the maid, whispered a few words, and the maid nodded and left.

"What kind of array is this?" Gambling carefully observed Gie You pouring a strange gray-green liquid into the notches of the array.

"It's very different from the magic circle in your magicians guild, isn't it? This is my sect's unique magic circle. It doesn't hurt to take a look at it." Gie You didn't seem to worry about leaking the secret at all, "People have ten fingers, so manpower is sometimes scarce. That's why.

The formation is a regular eleven-sided shape, which symbolizes the integration of the last miracle beyond human power into this magical formation. The following magical ceremony involves the secrets of our religion, so please avoid it for a moment.

.”

While talking, the maid brought in eleven believers in different clothes, all of whom were blindfolded. The maid guided each of them to stand in a corner of the formation, and then said to the adventure group: "The following ceremony is confidential, so please avoid it.

Thanks."

"How can I confirm that you didn't do unnecessary things to Lierou?" Beibi did not leave immediately.

The maid said in a deep voice: "Lord Shengzheng is upright and aboveboard. With our Lord's gaze in this great Jiaogu Temple, there is absolutely no possibility of evil happening..."

"You can leave two people to observe." Gie You interrupted her, "But these two people can't be anyone else, they can only be A'ao and Shangying. How about that?"

Beibi took a deep look at A'ao. "A'ao, I don't know what agreement you made with Gie You. But you have to remember how Lie Rou treated you."

"Don't worry." Oshiro said seriously.

Shangying also promised: "Don't worry, we won't see anything happen to Sister Lierou!"

Seeing that everyone was gone, Gie You covered Lirou's whole body with a piece of black cloth, while the maid took off the blindfolds of those people. At a glance, they saw Gie You smiling beside him.

"It's Lord Sheng Zhenzheng!" "Long live Zhenzheng!"

The eleven people saluted together, and Gatewei returned the salute: "Your piety has moved the Lord, and you are fortunate to become God's chosen people. You can listen to the oracle in this ceremony. Please stand where you are, don't move, close your eyes and pray to the sky."

, recite the holy words silently, and I will initiate the ceremony for you."

"Follow the holy edict!" The eleven people did not conceal the enthusiasm in their eyes, and closed their eyes in worship. A'ao looked at these fanatical believers and felt a chill for no reason, as if something terrible was about to happen.

.He did not ask what the relationship between this "oracle ceremony" and the treatment of Lierou was, but he had some bad premonitions. However, Shangying seemed to have no feeling at all, and watched the ceremony with some curiosity.

Qi You opened a scroll and recited an obscure spell: "able Class App..." As the spell progressed, the gems on Qi You's scepter gradually lit up, as if they were about to burst. At the moment when he was almost out of control, Qi You

Youping raised his scepter and waved it towards the formation——

There was a click, and in the shocked eyes of Oshi, the heads of the eleven people were thrown away. Bang! Then they exploded instantly. Blood and brains were sprinkled on the formation pattern, and the bodies were scattered and fell in 11 directions. They were stained with blood.

In the formations, the gray-green liquid bubbled out, as if boiling, and faintly emitted a light gray-orange fluorescence, which was extremely eerie and strange. The light gray-orange gas rose up, shrouded the fleshy insect body, and came out through the body.

.The strange thing is that all the gases coming out of the insect body are no longer the original color, but mixed with a hint of light pink.

Compared to Shanying's calmness, A'ao was breathing heavily, and this evil ritual that only appeared in horror novels was vividly presented before his eyes. Eleven headless corpses were still supplying blood to the formation. Gie You explained softly: "

This magical gas fumigates the insect body, which can eliminate specific harmful substances, that is, 110303 insecticide. However, the poison has been combined with the source of life and cannot be separated, so the fumigation appears light pink. I estimate that this set is similar.

After the ceremony, she should still be able to keep her life span for one year, but it should have little impact on her cultivation. If she can break through within this year, there may be a chance of extending her life."

Ayao was a little distracted: "This... is also the so-called divine magic? It is more evil than evil magic... They are obviously here for the oracle, so they trust you, but you kill them like this?"

"Why do you think it's sorcery?" Gie Youhun didn't care, "I didn't lie to them. If you want to get the oracle, you have to go to Huangken's side, and you have to offer your head and blood to the magical ritual to free yourself from the evil.

Soul. Isn't this a matter of course? If you are just disgusted with blood, it doesn't make any sense. Blood is just a liquid that is constantly flowing in our bodies, that's all."

"Is there no other way?" "Osaro, do you think there is no need to pay a special price for this kind of art that plays with life and death? If there were other ways, I don't think you would find me here."

Shanying didn't react that much. The experience during this period of time allowed her to gradually understand some of the so-called "human nature" of A'ao, but understanding does not mean that she empathizes with him. However, she still leaned gently against A'ao and said softly:

"Brother A'ao, we are just trying to save Sister Lierou, don't worry too much, okay?"
