Wanhua City, other hospital.
"Thank you for this trip, Mr. Ghost Face. My little brother is naughty, and I also want to thank Mr. Ghost Face for taking care of me..."
Cao Ying looked at Lin Sheng and bowed sincerely.
"Xiaoluan, you still haven't thanked Mr. Ghost Face! Don't be rude in the slightest."
Cao Luan, who was standing on the side, had his head lowered, like a child who had made a mistake. After hearing his sister's words, he bowed to Lin Sheng without hesitation, and there was even a hint of fear in his eyes when he looked at him.
Seeing Cao Luan being so straightforward, Cao Ying showed a hint of surprise on his face, but he didn't expect his brother, who had a bad temper, to become so well-behaved and obedient.
However, her mind was delicate and dexterous, and she understood the reason as soon as she thought about it. Obviously, a lot of things must have happened during this trip.
Otherwise, being as naughty and impulsive as before would not be a good thing. Thinking of this, she felt even more grateful to Lin Sheng.
Before, when she woke up and found that Cao Luan was missing, she immediately went to the room where her father's belongings were kept to check and sure enough, the things were gone.
She immediately understood what Cao Luan was thinking, but when she found the previous mission client, it was already too late when she rushed to the city gate.
Fortunately, there were no accidents in the end, and the revenge for killing his father had been avenged.
Thinking of this, she simply took out a stack of treasure notes from her arms.
"Ghost Face, in addition to the remuneration in Dark Star organization, please accept the money."
Regarding this extra gain, Lin Sheng naturally had no intention of rejecting it, and accepted the reward unceremoniously. After a cursory glance, he saw that it was actually 3,000 taels.
Apart from the money, it was not over yet. Cao Ying hesitated for a moment and took out another oval jade stone from his arms.
Seeing this jade, Lin Sheng felt something in his heart instantly.
"I see Your Excellency Ghost Face. I am somewhat interested in Jade Moth that day. This jade stone contains a mature Jade Moth. Please accept it."
Lin Sheng's eyes moved away from the jade and fell on Cao Ying opposite, who was smiling coquettishly.
"What do you want me to do for you?"
This Jade Moth is not only a high-level mortal Strange Beast flying insect, but it is also endowed with talents. If it were a flying insect creature, it would probably be considered a pseudo Spirit Beast level.
Its value is huge, far beyond what the money just received can be compared to.
Originally, he was thinking of spending some money to buy a Jade Moth, but now the other party took the initiative to take it out.
After hearing Lin Sheng's words, Cao Ying's smile remained unchanged and he spoke softly.
"This adult Jade Moth can be regarded as your thanks for taking care of Xiaoluan all the way."
When he said this, Cao Ying paused before continuing.
"In addition, the slave family has another proposal. I wonder if your Excellency Ghost Face is interested in it."
"Tell me about it?"
Lin Sheng stared at each other with fixed eyes.
He understood that this was the other party's true purpose.
Although he intended to make friends with the two siblings, if the other party's request was not to his liking and they wanted him to go out to carry out any assassination mission, he would definitely not accept it.
After all, his mind is on martial arts practice and cannot be delayed too much by other trivial matters. The reason why he chose to take on the task this time was also for the money needed for practice.
"The slave family would like to invite Your Excellency Ghost Face to make a sacrifice."
"Offer?"
Hearing this sentence, Lin Sheng raised his eyebrows.
"Yes, it is for worship. I believe you have also noticed that the slave family used to run a shop in this Wanhua City, but later suffered heavy losses from Red-haired Bandits during a business trip. My father was even killed by his hands. After such a change, the slave family had no intention of running the business and only wanted to avenge the murder of my father."
"Now that the great revenge has been avenged, the slave family plans to reopen, so I would like to ask your Excellency Ghost Face to worship you."
Cao Ying didn't mean to show off, and directly revealed his purpose. It seemed that he was worried that Lin Sheng had any scruples, and even mentioned the reward as well.
"The slave family has suffered a big change. We don't have much savings left now, so we can't pay much for the time being. However, the slave family is willing to give 20% of the profit to you every month in the future."
She knew that the person in front of her, with such cultivation at such an age, was definitely a martial arts fanatic, so she added another sentence.
"In addition, unless you encounter something difficult to solve, I will not disturb your practice. Please rest assured."
After listening to what the other party said, Lin Sheng fell into thinking.
He is actually not interested in whether to worship or not, but he is very happy to get money if he can. In a sense, this is considered a technical investment. No, it should be an investment based on strength.
After a moment of hesitation, he nodded and agreed directly.
"That's okay."
Join Seven Forms Sect now, and you will be here with Wanhua City for a long time to come.
As the realm improves, more and more materials are needed for practice, and the cost of money will also increase accordingly.
He had originally planned to buy a store and let Wang Dehai and Old Zhou take charge of the operation, which could be considered a stable income.
I just don't know what the ability of this Cao Ying is.
However, considering that they can spend so much money for a reward, it is obviously not that bad. Moreover, the two siblings have done a lot of research on insects Strange Beast, and they should have mastered the art of breeding insects.
He is also willing to interact with him more, after all, he remembers Nether Ghost Bee.
Seeing Lin Sheng agreeing to this proposal, Cao Ying smiled even more on his face and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
Although she still didn't understand how the other party killed Red-haired Ghost Luo Hu, the fact that he was able to bring back Luo Hu's head, and also brought back Cao Luan, proved that her intuition was correct. The strength of the person in front of her was far from as simple as it seemed.
And she could tell that the other person was not very old, and his future achievements would obviously be limitless. As a businessman, and a quite shrewd businessman, she naturally understood that this kind of person must be friends with her.
That's why she took out so much profit. Of course, with their current situation, they really need someone with good strength to rely on.
"So nice to work with."
Cao Ying smiled and spoke.
Without waiting for everything to be settled, Lin Sheng stood up and left.
Watching the tall figure go away and disappear from sight, Cao Ying did not even look back.
"Sister, we only have one of the mature Jade Moth, why did you give it to him?"
It wasn't until Cao Luan's voice sounded from the side that she was brought back from her thoughts.
The peaceful smile on his face disappeared and his face became serious.
"You still have the nerve to say that if you dare to behave like this next time, let's see if I don't spank you."
"Do you really think you can take revenge with the Netherworld Stick left by your father? If it weren't for Mr. Ghost Face, would you still be able to see me this time?"
"I... I..."
Cao Luan paused and even said the word "I" a few times, but was unable to refute, because it was indeed the case. If the other party hadn't taken action this time, I couldn't imagine what would have happened.
He lowered his head, still a little unconvinced, and whispered.
"I know, but sister, you don't need to give Jade Moth directly to him, right? There are still three thousand taels of silver. If I remember correctly, we only have a little over three thousand taels left in total?"
"You gave him all the money, sister, what else do you use to open a shop?"
"You still said." Cao Ying frowned and already stretched out his hand to twist Cao Luan's ears.
Immediately, screams of pain and begging for mercy were heard in the yard.
After fussing for a while, Cao Ying just let go of his hand and asked angrily.
"Now tell me everything that happened to you along the way..."
Covering his red ears, Cao Luan slowly told the story.
"This guy is simply a monster. He is so powerful that I didn't see him fighting Luo Hu at all. I just waited outside for a while and saw him coming out with Luo Hu's head..."
After Cao Luan finished talking about the matter, Cao Ying showed a thoughtful look on his face, and finally, he told Cao Luan seriously.
"Oh, don't be rude to Mr. Ghost Face anymore, do you understand?"
"I understand..."
After leaving the Cao Ying yard, Lin Sheng went straight to Dark Star Base.
The middle-aged woman in the antique shop had a look of surprise on her face after seeing Lin Sheng appear. She was even more surprised when she learned that he had completed the task and was here to collect his reward.
After confirming it several times, I believed the result and transferred the credit for this mission to Lin Sheng's account.
Lin Sheng glanced at the wooden sign on the commission wall again, but had no intention of accepting the commission again, so he turned around and left.
Watching Lin Sheng leave, the middle-aged woman's eyes flickered.
"It's interesting that this task can be completed."
Muttering to himself, he had already snapped his fingers, and soon a short man walked in from outside.
"Go and find out what happened in Pingshan County?"
The short man didn't answer and turned around to leave.
"Ghost Face?"
The middle-aged woman chewed the name as if she remembered something.
"It seems that he came here with that scum Yellow Dog, but this old guy Yellow Dog has been hiding for so many years and he dares to come back. He is really crazy..."
Shaking her head slightly, the middle-aged woman had already picked up the needle and thread from the side and continued her needlework.
At this moment, Lin Sheng has returned to Residence in the city. He first took a look at Lin Hong and Xie Guilan, and then asked Wang Dehai and Old Zhou. After confirming that nothing special happened during the time of departure, he began to take stock of the harvest.
In the room, a thick stack of treasure notes was placed in front of Lin Sheng. In addition, there was a jade stone and a bottle of elixir.
"Including Dark Star's one hundred points of merit, the total money gained from this trip is close to thirty thousand taels. As for the tiger skin, it should be Spirit Beast's fur, and the price will not be..."
The harvest this time is indeed rich, and Lin Sheng has a smile on his face.
This money is enough to buy a live Spirit Beast.
And this Jade Moth can also be incorporated into the body.
As for the last pill...
Lin Sheng's eyes fell on the red porcelain bottle. He didn't know much about the pills, so he couldn't tell what the pills in the porcelain bottle were and what their specific effects were.
However, if it could be stored in the secret room by Luo Hu, it is obviously not an ordinary thing. You can go to the drug store in the city when you have time and let people identify it.
While thinking, he suddenly remembered that he seemed to have lost something.
He took out a strand of red cloth from his arms.
The texture of the red cloth is delicate, smooth and slightly cool to the touch. It is exactly the piece of red silk that was originally in the wooden box in Luo Hu's secret room.
He took Hongjuan in his hand and looked at it carefully, but found nothing special except the material.
In fact, on the way back, he studied this piece of Hongjuan more than once, but found nothing.
But just like the bottle of elixir, being able to be stored in a wooden box is not as simple as it seems.
After studying for a long time without any clue, he didn't bother to waste time and simply put away the red cloth.
It was getting dark at this time. After thinking about it, he gave up the idea of going out and went to sleep in the room.
After traveling all the way and fighting fiercely, now that I'm back in the city, I can finally have a good rest.
I slept until dawn the next day.
After being away for such a long time, he first returned to the Seven Forms Sect headquarters.
All the way to Qingniao Institute, he had just arrived at Qingzhu Villa where Xie Qingyun was. When he was about to go to greet Xie Qingyun, he saw two women approaching. The leading woman was Senior Disciple Sister Wei Yun.
Behind Wei Yun was a young woman in her early 20s. The woman had a ponytail and a green dress. She was very tall, with a slender figure and two straight legs. She seemed to be close to 1.8 meters tall, which was almost the same as Lin Sheng at this time.
The woman's skin is not fair, but a healthy wheat color. Her facial features are straight and beautiful, but her eyebrows are quite thick. She has an indescribable heroic spirit and is capable.
"Junior Brother Lin Are you back?"
Seeing Lin Sheng coming over, Wei Yun showed a faint smile on his face.
"Well, I'll be back after finishing my work. This time I'm here to pay my respects to Master."
Lin Sheng nodded.
"I knew it, but Master, she went to the main peak yesterday at the invitation of the leader to discuss matters. It will probably take another day or two before she comes back."
"Is that so? Forget it."
Hearing this, Lin Sheng stopped. He didn't expect that this trip would be in vain. He knew he wouldn't have made this trip.
"Are you Lin Sheng, master's new direct disciple?"
The capable woman next to Wei Yun looked at Lin Sheng and spoke.
"Junior Brother Lin, this is Master's fourth direct disciple Bai Qing. He went out on a sect mission before and just came back. This is the first time you have met."
Wei Yun smiled and introduced to Lin Sheng.
"I've met Senior Sister Bai."
He had already guessed the identity of the capable woman, and this moment was no exception, and he gave her a gentle bow.
However, Bai Qing's response stunned him.
I saw the other party's figure suddenly arrived in front of him, and then pinched his shoulder.
"The muscles are well forged and the bones are strong and strong, which is very good. Although Bloodline is just an inferior, there is still a way to go in the future. We can discuss and exchange ideas when we have time."
Feeling the strength coming from his shoulders, Lin Sheng nodded subconsciously.
Bai Qing also nodded, turned and left.
"Don't be surprised. Your Senior Sister Bai's temperament has always been like this. She is a martial arts fanatic, but she is a very nice person. Just get used to it."
Seeing Lin Sheng in a daze, Wei Yun explained with a smile.
Lin Sheng just nodded, and after chatting with Wei Yun for a few more words, he said goodbye and left.
He didn't take the incident on the mountain to heart, nor did he stay in Qingniao Institute for long, so he returned to Wanhua City. Now that he was worth a lot of money, it was time to find the right Spirit Beast.
