Good luck with koi carp

Chapter 89 Suspicions in the Village
"I'm going out."

As soon as Daozun Yusi came back, he was notified of the news by his little fish.

He didn't ask what the other party wanted to do out there, he only asked: "When will you return?"

"I don't know, if it's fast, it'll be thirty to fifty days, if it's slow, it'll be a few months." Chili made an estimate in her heart and said uncertainly.

In fact, she could leave at will, but before leaving, she thought about it. After all, she had been raised by someone for so long, and she had to say hello to others before she left, so as not to worry her owner.

Chili still has this kind of courtesy.

"Yes." Just as Chi Li thought, Yu Si Tao Zun had no intention of restricting her freedom. After listening to her report, he took something out of his sleeve and gave it to her: "Take this thing."

Chi Li took it and saw that the object was a safety buckle.

Before she could ask, Taoist Master Yu Si explained: "This thing is a treasure refined by me. It has the effect of protecting and teleporting. You should wear it with you. If you encounter a life-threatening danger, it will automatically protect you." You are thorough."

It turns out that this thing is a magic weapon specially refined by Taoist Master Yu to protect Chili. If Chili is in danger, it will automatically unfold a shield that can withstand a full blow from a Mahayana monk, and immediately kill Chili. Li teleported to Yu Si Dao Zun.

In other words, with it, Chili has an extra life in this world.

Chili is not a ungrateful person. After receiving such an expensive gift, she naturally feels grateful for the kindness.

She thought for a moment and made a decision in her heart. She leaned out of the water slightly, stretched out a white and slender hand towards Taoist Yu Si, and motioned for him to cover it.

Taoist Master Yu Si didn't know why, but he still took out a big hand with clear joints from his wide sleeves and gently placed it on Chi Li's small hand.

The two hands touched each other, and both could feel the touch of the other's skin, but they only separated at the first touch.

There was no time to recall the cool and smooth feeling. Almost instantly, Taoist Master Yu Si noticed an invisible mark on his body. He did not feel any malice from it. On the contrary, he felt like he had been blessed.

Also without giving the other party a chance to ask, Chili raised a smile first and said in a clear voice: "I wish you well. If you are in danger, misfortune will turn into good luck, and if you are in good luck, all your wishes will come true."

The blessing from the koi fish in the fairy world is accompanied by the arrival of blessings.

This blessing is different from others. It contains a trace of Chili's spiritual origin. After all, if you want to resist the threat of destiny from this side of heaven, you can't do it without using something at the bottom of the box.

Chili knew that her blessing would eventually come true.

In this world where all the luck has been taken away by the Son of Heaven, any existence that blocks its path will make way for various reasons, which naturally includes those who are regarded as targets by the Son of Heaven, but are worse than him. Yu Si Tao Zun is too powerful.

That dog coin will definitely not be able to defeat her owner now, but it is hard to say whether Fang Tiandao will find a way to kill Yu Si Daozun in order to pave the way for his beloved son.

It doesn't have to be too troublesome. You just need to create some surprises during the opponent's training to make him go crazy, or increase the difficulty by a hundred million points when he overcomes the tribulation, or go a little further and directly give Shen Aotian something that can restrain Taoist Yu Si. Even if Yu Si Tao Zun is very strong, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is the No. 1 in the world of cultivation today, but he may not be able to resist the constant concern of those rats lurking in the gutter.

Even her master was...

After putting away those unpleasant memories in her mind in time, Chi Li came back to her senses, stared at Yu Si Dao Zun seriously, and said goodbye to him: "Then I'm leaving."

"Go."

Yu Si waved his hand, and Chi Li felt like he was wrapped in a gentle force. When he came back to his senses, he was already outside the Tianheng Dao Sect and settled in a cultivation town near his sect.

Fortunately, the other party also knew that she might not be suitable to show her true face in front of others, so she was sent directly to an inn room. This inn room was equipped with a barrier to protect the privacy of the guests staying in it. He was not afraid that Chi Li, who had not yet gone through disguise, would be accidentally recognized.

Although this possibility is actually very low, don't be afraid of [-].

Chili was about to raise her hand to pinch and cast a disguise technique on herself, when she suddenly recalled that she had seen and experienced it when she was a star in modern times, and even learned a few tricks from a makeup artist that were comparable to top-notch disguise techniques. I have some other ideas about makeup technology.

Half an hour later, a pretty and lovely girl in blue appeared on the street. She walked briskly into a magic weapon shop, went in to pick and choose, and finally bought one at a moderate price on the recommendation of the shopkeeper. Nowadays, the monks' favorite floating cloud-shaped flying magic weapon left this town.

This Liuyun magic weapon feels like riding on clouds and mist when controlled. When paired with the beautiful dress, it looks even more fairy-like and gorgeous.

No wonder everyone likes this style. It looks really good and satisfies the expectations of cultivators who want to ascend to immortality.

When I just left the town, I could still see many fellow Taoists flying around in the sky. These were monks who traveled to and from this bustling town. They all controlled flying magic weapons of different shapes, among which the mainstream flying swords. There are the most, but there are also some flowers, leaves, floating clouds, boats, gourds, floating dust, and some riding flying spiritual beasts.

After staring at a girl riding a white crane for a while, Chili knocked on her forehead in annoyance. Why didn't she think of it? To buy a flying magic weapon, you have to expend your own spiritual power and energy to drive it. But riding a flying spirit beast Not so much trouble anymore.

But after they came out, Chili didn't want to go back, so she kept some thoughts and planned to buy a flying spirit beast when she went to the next town, or if she saw a suitable one on the road, she would try to tame one. Modern walking tool.


As the surrounding scenery receded rapidly, Chili gradually followed the address in the original owner's memory and found the edge of the Jiuxuan Sword Sect's territory.


She planned to get in and stir up a pool of muddy water, but before taking action, she still couldn't move forward rashly, so she first settled on the outskirts of the Jiuxuan Sword Sect and waited and watched the situation inside.


The place where Chili temporarily settled was a village.


Naturally, it was impossible for an inn to exist in this kind of village, so she originally planned to find a nicer family and stay for a few nights by paying money.


Unexpectedly, when Chi Li stepped into the village and saw several villagers carrying farm tools walking on the path, before they came up to talk to her, the villagers who saw her seemed to have suddenly seen her. As if they were possessed by ghosts, their expressions changed greatly, and they subconsciously wanted to run away, but they remembered something again, with pale faces and did not dare to run away, so they could only kneel down to Chili shivering.


Fortunately, Chili reacted quickly and cast a spell in advance to help the person up before their knees hit the ground.
But those who found themselves being forcibly lifted up were even more desperate. Among them, the older old man gritted his teeth and gave Chili a trembling gesture. A slave in the cultivation world faced the master's respect and bowed extremely respectfully. He asked: "I have handed in the tribute regulations for this month. I wonder if the immortal has any other instructions?"


Chili subconsciously turned sideways to avoid the old man's gift. Then when he heard the other party's words, he couldn't help but look confused: "Gongli? What tribute?"


Why doesn't she know what tribute mortals have to pay to monks?

Even if some human emperors would enshrine some casual cultivators or small sects for the use of the country, the money to support those people should not come from the villagers of this small village.


To put it bluntly, how much oil and water can be squeezed out of such a small village?

What's more, no matter how remote this place is, it is located on the edge of the second largest sect in the world of cultivation. It is still more or less protected by the Jiuxuan Sword Sect. No monks should dare to bully them.


However, it turns out that Chili is still too naive.


After she asked those words, the villagers seemed to have been greatly insulted. Each of them blushed, but they could only grit their teeth and endure it. One of them might have been impulsive, so he clenched the hoe in his hand and moved it a little. He wanted to rush forward, but the person next to him quickly grabbed him and pulled him back, as if he was conducting a silent persuasion.


How could these little mortal actions be hidden from Chi Li's eyes.


But she pretended not to know, and bowed naturally to the old man who was obviously in charge, and said in a warm voice: "Old man, I am a casual cultivator. I happened to pass by this place and was a little tired, so I thought of going to the village to borrow a How many days do I have to rest at my residence? Is there anyone in your village who can lend me a spare room for a few days?"


Afraid of being disapproved, Chili turned his hand and conjured up a piece of broken silver. He estimated it to be about half a tael, which was enough for an ordinary family to chew for a month or two.


Still able to eat enough.


"Don't worry, I won't live here in vain. These are my small gifts, given to people who are willing to let me borrow them."


You can earn half a tael of silver just by renting an empty house for a few days. To be honest, this is very exciting, especially since this village is extremely poor for some reasons.


But no one else, including the old man, showed any signs of being tempted. Instead, they relaxed slightly after learning that Chili was just a passerby, and persuaded her to leave with some sincerity.


"Sir, I'm really sorry. Our village is small and dilapidated, and we really don't have room to lend you a place to live. I have to ask you to find another place to live. I remember that there is a small town a hundred miles southeast. There is an inn there. You can go there. Settlement over there.”


A hundred miles may be a long distance for ordinary people, and it takes several days to travel by bullock cart, but for a monk, it is only a short time, and it only takes a few seconds to get there with a flying magic weapon.


If she hadn't noticed anything strange in this village, Chili might have chosen to move to another place so as not to embarrass others. It wouldn't be a hassle anyway, but now that she has discovered something is wrong here, how could she be willing to leave like this?


Moreover, Chi Li also noticed that the path pointed to her was in the opposite direction to the Jiu Xuan Sword Sect.


This is somewhat intriguing.


So she just made up an excuse at random: "Please understand me, old man. To be honest, my cultivation level is low. I have exhausted all my spiritual power in my body while traveling. I really can't move forward anymore. If it weren't for this, I wouldn't." Shamelessly insisting on staying in your village."


Maybe it was because they saw her as a young girl looking so sad that she was really pitiful. Even though they knew in their hearts that she was an immortal with great supernatural powers, she might not look as young as she looked, so these kind-hearted villagers still felt pity for her.


The villager who just grabbed his companion looked at the old man hesitantly and whispered: "Uncle Zhen, we have paid the tribute for this month. Those... should not come again. Otherwise, let the immortal live here. How many days?”


The old man was also a little shaken. He looked at Chi Li's pitiful appearance and thought that if they didn't take her in, she might have to sleep in the wild tonight. There were wild boars outside the village. They were very ferocious, and there were several big men there. They couldn't resist it. It was really hard to meet the opponent and he didn't have much spiritual power. He couldn't use the magic, so he might be in danger. In the end, he softened his heart.


"Okay, there is an empty house in the old man's house, but it is a bit simple. If the immortal doesn't dislike it, he can stay in the old man's house temporarily. As for the silver, there is no need for it."


His house was in tatters, or almost every house in the whole village was in tatters. He was just renting it for a few days, and he was embarrassed to charge so much money.


Of course, there was another layer of thought behind his decision.


If this immortal is really just a passer-by as she said, then everyone will be happy if she is given away for a few days. But if he is an uneasy and well-intentioned person, with him personally watching, if anything really happens, he can do it for the first time. After all, he has done enough for his old bones after living for so many years. It would be nice if he could still give the villagers some time to escape at the end of the day.


Yes, the old man actually didn't trust Chi Li very much, but he saw that the other party had no intention of leaving at all, and was afraid of angering the other party with a too tough attitude. Don't listen to what people said about exhausting his spiritual power and being unable to move forward. The immortals with spiritual power are not something mortals like them can compete with.


And it was hard to tell whether what he said was true or false, so in order to protect the villagers, the old man could only try his best to deal with Chili.


Of course Chi Li also knows that others don't trust her, but what does it matter?


She just wanted to stay and explore the secrets of this village.


In fact, under normal circumstances, Chi Li doesn't have much curiosity. There are secrets in this village, and they have nothing to do with her at all. But why is this place so close to the Jiuxuan Sword Sect where Shen Gouqin is buried, and the various behaviors of these villagers are... It seems that Wu Di has something to do with it.


Instinct told Chi Li that she must stay and take a good look.


The other villagers dispersed under the old man's eyes and went back to their homes, while the old man led Chi Li to his home alone.


On the way, he introduced his name to Chili.


Muzhen sounds quite literate. It is said that this old man’s grandfather spent six copper coins to give it to him by the only Tongsheng master in the village at that time. He hoped that he would be able to achieve something in the future. Zhen lived up to the expectations of his elders and later became the village chief of Mujia Village.


Chi Li also didn't expect that she would be so lucky to meet the village chief as soon as she arrived.


Since her actual age was many times older than others, Chili didn't pretend to be gentle and called them uncle or grandpa. She simply called them by their first names.


Obviously, her calling him this made Mu Zhen feel relaxed.


He might not be able to bear the thought of being called an elder by an immortal.
