The two house slaves had pointed eyebrows and sharp eyes, and they shouted sternly, with a sour expression on their faces.
"I think you should kneel down, admit your mistake, and spare your life. Otherwise, the five hundred thorn sticks will be uncomfortable. The thorn sticks are made of the 'Heaven-pressing Vine'. Even a monk can't
bear."
The manager is domineering and oppressive.
"Tsk tsk, let alone a low-level Loose Immortal, even if you are a high-level Loose Immortal, five hundred thorn sticks are enough to kill half of your life, and you will either die or be disabled."
"If I were you and chose to kneel down, the steward would recognize your identity as a guard and give you a way to survive. But if you have to choose death, you can't blame others."
The slaves started gesticulating, one on the left and the other on the right. As they spoke, their lips raised an evil sneer.
When Lin Jie heard this, his eyes darkened.
The steward lost his patience and said in a cold tone: "I'll give you ten breaths. If you don't choose, I will notify the senior guards and punish you with a stick on the spot and kill you."
"I can pay for it."
Lin Jie compromised.
A domestic slave sneered sinisterly: "Haha, my master is short of money?
Furthermore, this jade toad is custom-made and unique, how can you accompany it?"
Lin Jie was slightly startled, and after a moment, he suddenly said: "No need to take ten breaths, I choose two."
The manager's expression suddenly changed, and his eyes were filled with energy.
As if he didn't expect that Lin Jie would choose to be punished.
"Five hundred thorn sticks, have you thought about it?
Someone might die."
The house slave smiled coquettishly.
I saw that Lin Jie stopped talking nonsense and kept silent.
He is not a weak person, nor is he a courageous person.
It's just that when I first came to Yuhuang Star, I was too weak, so I had to endure it.
Immortal cultivators need to have a strong and diligent state of mind, but as a loose immortal in Prince Yun's Mansion, you need strength but not strength, you need power but not power, and you have to be patient.
At this moment, Lin Jie took the initiative to take off his armor.
"This man is crazy."
The domestic slaves were in disbelief and knelt down with the thorn stick. If it were a high-level loose immortal, they would choose to kneel down and apologize.
A low-level Loose Immortal actually chose the thorn stick.
"grown ups."
Only the sound of tearing and tearing was heard.
Another slave came holding a long black gold stick that was ten feet long. The stick was covered with dark golden thunder and lightning patterns, as if it was born from the thunder of the sky.
Every immortal pattern is like a dormant thunder python, full of hostility and domineering.
The manager suddenly showed a trace of pity: "I haven't told you clearly yet, who would have thought that you would choose the thorn stick? Listen carefully, according to the rules of the house, the person who is being tortured must not be lucky, activate magical powers, and use magic weapons to protect the body. Who dares
If you are disobedient, you will violate the king's rules."
"bring it on."
Lin Jie's eyes were filled with determination.
"beat."
The manager was slightly angry.
"If you are punished with five hundred thorns, you will definitely die."
"Even if you don't die, you will be disabled for the rest of your life."
Suddenly many slaves and servants gathered around.
Unexpectedly, the manager suddenly frowned: "I will give you one last chance."
"Just do it."
Lin Jie actually closed his eyes slightly and said no more.
There was a crash on the ground, and with the fierce momentum of thunder piercing the sky, the slave raised his thorn stick and hit Lin Jie heavily on the back.
In an instant, blood flowed from his back.
The muscles were torn into a blood web by the thunder power contained in the thorn stick, which was shocking. The wounds were deep enough to show the bones.
Hmm~
The people watching around were all as silent as cicadas and their scalps were numb.
Another dull crash sounded, and Lin Jie trembled slightly.
Immediately, drops of blood fell to the ground, blooming like flowers.
The manager looked angry at this moment and said openly: "Lin Jie, I will give you one more chance to make a choice. Kneel down."
Lin Jie still closed his eyes.
He didn't move his mouth for several breaths.
"Hit me hard."
The manager said no more, swung his sleeves vigorously, and immediately went to the pavilion to sit down.
Peng! Peng! Peng!
The courtyard echoed with the sounds of beatings, blood, thunder, and the gasps of many people.
"grown ups."
And another courtyard.
A servant hurriedly came to see Luo Teng and explained the details of Lin Jie's punishment at this moment.
Hearing this, Luo Teng twirled his beard, paced back and forth, and said sternly: "You said there was no cheating during the whole process?"
"Without saying a word, Lin Jie was beaten with five hundred thorn sticks and didn't say a word at all. After the beating, he fainted on the spot and was sent back to the wing."
The servant said with shock.
"Go down."
Roten issued an eviction order.
Princess Garden.
In the palace, on the gilded throne above is Princess Yunguo.
The whole body is simple and elegant, but in every gesture, there is a pure and elegant charm, like the lotus blooming in the warm spring breeze, which is extremely beautiful.
Below, Luo Teng bowed: "Lin Jie has passed the test. This person reacts quickly, acts decisively, strikes ruthlessly, and has backbone. He has been able to practice from the first level to the fourth level Sanxian for thousands of years. This qualification is the best among the guards."
It’s unique, even among the royal family, it’s very rare.”
"So, I accidentally picked up a talent?
If it is given to my sister, she will focus on training it."
Princess Yunguo said calmly with bright eyes and white teeth.
Luo Teng was startled and said: "Lin Jie has just passed the ordinary test and has not experienced the test of life and death. It depends on how the princess uses it. And it has only been a thousand years. It is impossible to really see the character of this child. If he is really cultivated, what will he do to the county?"
It is of great help to the Lord.”
"Use it for now. He is just a Sanxian at the moment and can't help me. Let him come to me. I hope he won't have any objections."
Under that elegant temperament, Princess Yunguo's eyes actually aroused a coldness, showing the royal power.
The next day.
Lin Jie slowly woke up, but he woke up painfully.
At this moment, he felt that his body did not belong to him, and the pain was so intense that he had to cut the flesh and remove the bones.
I have gone through so many hardships, but this time, it is nothing, just a flesh wound, and one month is enough to heal it.
After swallowing a big pill of blood plasma and combining it with a big calamity elixir, as expected, the face was bloodless, but it slowly became alive.
After he recovers a little, he sits up cross-legged and slowly nourishes his body.
Soon, Roten, led by the maid, entered the side room.
Lin Jie struggled and said: "Sir."
Roten stopped and put his hands behind his back: "I have just learned about your matter. This matter has passed. The merits are no longer important. What have you learned after experiencing this matter?"
"I wonder what you mean, sir?"
Lin Jie pretended to understand but not understand.
"After being tortured with a stick and almost dying, you should have figured out some things after going through this ordeal."
Luo Teng said, and walked up to Lin Jie again. When he saw him thinking hard, the man shook his head: "For example, if your status is higher than that of the manager, how dare he punish you?
For another example, if your strength surpasses his and you become a permanent immortal, he dares to punish you?"
Lin Jie nodded: "I understand."
Luo Teng smiled happily, raised his hand and twirled his beard: "In this Yuhuangxing, or even in the world of cultivating immortals, if you have no strength, you deserve to be stepped on. I think you have good qualifications, so I will give you a chance. The princess needs a personal guard by her side.
, I have to look for it, and among the guards who have recently entered the mansion, I think you are quite suitable."
"Thank you, sir."
Lin Jie bowed reluctantly.
"From now on, you have been promoted to the princess's personal guard, but you must work harder to reach the top, otherwise you will not be qualified to stay with the princess. Take good care of your injuries."
Roten suggested, and immediately took the people away.
