Donghua, My Teammates Are Too Useless! (cont.)
Bai Chen disagreed with Hong Yun going to jail and instead wanted her to keep Fuxi company.
It wasn't that Bai Chen was being merciful, but rather that it didn't want that monstrous Fuxi to have anyone to chat with.
After all, if Hong Yun were to go to jail as well, wouldn't Fuxi have someone to chat with?
When these two cultivate and discuss the Dao together at the Fire Cloud Palace, is that supposed to make Fuxi go to jail to atone for his sins?
That's clearly a place where Fuxi could live in seclusion and cultivate himself!
Therefore, it's better to let Fuxi go to jail alone, so that he can endure endless loneliness.
"Fellow Daoist Bai Chen, on behalf of Hong Yun, I thank you for your great kindness!"
Upon hearing this, Zhenyuanzi bowed to Bai Chen in thanks.
As Hong Yun's good friend, Zhenyuanzi naturally didn't want him to go to jail.
"Zhenyuanzi, there's something I need to tell you beforehand!"
If Hong Yun becomes the Earth Emperor of the Human Race, he will completely lose his status Innate Deity.
Bai Chen felt that this matter was extremely important to any Innate Deity, so he spoke about it first to avoid the other party causing trouble for him later.
"That's alright!"
Zhenyuanzi stroked his beard and smiled, observing Hong Yun's current state of a broken Primordial Spirit True Spirit.
Zhenyuanzi felt that he was already satisfied with being able to restore Hong Yun to normal; whether Hongyun was human or Innate Deity was secondary.
Seeing that Zhenyuanzi didn't object to Hong Yun becoming human, Bai Chen asked:
"Zhenyuanzi, Hong Yun has been reincarnated as a human. Are you planning to sneak in like Fuxi, or go through the normal process of reincarnation in the Six Paths of Reincarnation?"
While Bai Chen appeared to be questioning Zhenyuanzi, it had already made the decision for him in its heart.
After all, if Hong Yun were to smuggle herself across the border, how would Bai Chen get any benefits?
"Fellow Daoist Bai Chen, it is naturally better to reincarnate through the Six Paths of Reincarnation."
Without hesitation or thought, Zhenyuanzi gave the answer directly.
After all, the last Fuxi who tried to smuggle himself out had already been discovered by Houtu.
Fuxi was Nuwa's brother, which is why he was able to save his life, but Hong Yun didn't have a sister who was a saint.
If Houtu discovers Houtu at such a crucial moment, even if you don't die, you'll be severely injured.
So it's best to honestly reincarnate as a human through the Six Paths of Reincarnation reincarnation; if you don't have connections, don't try to cross the border illegally.
Seeing that Zhenyuanzi had taken the bait, Bai Chen pretended to be troubled and said:
"This is a bit tricky. Back then, Hong Yun would rather self-destruct and destroy the Hongmeng Purple Qi than offer it to the Witch Clan."
"And Houtu Tu Na Wu is very petty and vengeful. It will be difficult for Hong Yun to reincarnate as a human through the Six Paths of Reincarnation!"
Since Houtu wasn't here, Bai Chen could openly slander her and thus gain benefits.
Houtu: Little White, you've gone too far! You actually slandered me in front of outsiders while I was away.
Zhenyuanzi was speechless upon hearing this. So much time had passed since this incident; was it really necessary for Houtu, a Earthly Dao Spokesperson of the Houtu, to hold a grudge?
Moreover, Hong Yun self-destructed while carrying that Hongmeng Purple Qi, so he didn't give it to anyone, which is relatively fair!
"Fellow Daoist Bai Chen, what do you think is the best way to handle this matter?"
After mentally complaining for a while, Zhenyuanzi still asked Bai Chen for a solution.
He believed that since the cat had raised the same old question, there must be a solution.
"Hong Yun's merits as an Earthly Sovereign may be somewhat less, Merit and Fortune may be reduced."
What benefits could Bai Chen possibly want? He could only take them from Hong Yun's Earthly Emperor Merit!
Bai Chen gave a heads-up beforehand to prevent the Earth Emperor's merits from being divided up too much, which could cause trouble for some people.
"Good!"
Zhenyuanzi agreed. It's better to have less Merit and Fortune and good fortune than nothing!
Moreover, this merit of the Earthly Emperor can be said to be a free gift.
"Zhenyuanzi, give this great god the shattered Primordial Spirit True Spirit of Hong Yun!"
Bai Chen demanded Hong Yun's Primordial Spirit True Spirit, hoping to bring Shennong Shi out as soon as possible so that the demon could be imprisoned sooner.
Zhenyuanzi gestured for Bai Chen to wait a moment, then went to the forbidden area of Wuzhuang Temple, the place where the Earth Book was enshrined, to retrieve Hong Yun's Primordial Spirit True Spirit.
When Hong Yun self-destructed, Dao Ancestor Hongjun intervened and saved his life, handing over the tattered Primordial Spirit True Spirit Hong Yun to Zhenyuanzi.
Zhenyuanzi's cultivation and magical power were only so-so; in these Yuanhui, he could only use the power of the Earth Book and the power of the Ginseng Fruit Tree to nourish Hong Yun's damaged Primordial Spirit True Spirit.
Just as Bai Chen was about to leave after putting away Hong Yun's Primordial Spirit True Spirit, he suddenly remembered something, so he stopped and said to Zhenyuanzi:
"By the way, Zhenyuanzi, Houtu once said that Ginseng Fruit is quite delicious. I'm going to see Houtu and plan to bring her some."
Are you kidding me? Do you think I, Great God Bai Chen, would just eat thirty Ginseng Fruit from Zhenyuanzi's hand?
Who are you trying to fool with thirty Ginseng Fruit?
"Zhenyuanzi, don't tell me that I've eaten all the ginseng Ginseng Fruit. I don't believe you don't have any left over."
Bai Chen spoke up again to shut the other party up, lest this True Lord of Stockpiles pretend to be poor and cry that he has no stockpiles.
"Fellow Daoist Bai Chen, look at the third one~"
Left with no other choice, Zhenyuanzi spoke up, but before he could even get to the quantity, Bai Chen interrupted him, answering first:
"Zhenyuanzi, then let's have 36,000 Ginseng Fruit. That should be enough for Houtu to eat for a while!"
The quantity is up to Great God Bai Chen, otherwise if you ask for tens or hundreds, he'll have to haggle with you.
convex (艹艹),
Zhenyuanzi: I didn't mean to say 36,000 Ginseng Fruit, I meant 3,600 Ginseng Fruit, the yield of ten Yuanhui.
Bai Chen, you immediately multiplied the price tenfold! Are you just grabbing things wherever you go?
Bai Chen: Zhenyuanzi, this great god predicted your prediction.
Three thousand six hundred Ginseng Fruit aren't even enough for the Great God Bai Chen to eat! How are they going to be distributed to Houtu?
"That's fine then!"
Zhenyuanzi gritted his teeth and agreed to take out 100 Yuanhui's worth of stock and 36,000 Ginseng Fruit.
Who could blame him when Hong Yun was his closest friend?
Duobao was dumbfounded. When he came here, Zhenyuanzi only gave him two Ginseng Fruit as a treat, and they were even from his stock!
And what about Bai Chen?
Not only did they pick all thirty Ginseng Fruit fresh, but they also plan to pack tens of thousands more.
Even if Bai Chen is Innate Great God, isn't this preferential treatment going too far?
After Zhen Yuanzi, the True Zhenyuanzi of Storage, handed over 36,000 Ginseng Fruit to Bai Chen, he thought about sending the other party away as soon as possible.
But Bai Chen wasn't so easily sent away.
"However, if I, this great deity, only bring Ginseng Fruit to Houtu and not to Nuwa, that petty Nuwa will definitely cause trouble for you and Hong Yun."
Bai Chen stopped and then, again using Nuwa's name, extorted money from Zhenyuanzi.
Nuwa: No wonder my reputation is getting worse and worse. It's all because of you, you Bad Cat, ruining my reputation and using my name to extort money from the outside world.
"Then add another 36,000!"
Faced with Bai Chen's fraud and extortion, Zhenyuanzi had no choice but to grit his teeth and agree to take out 36,000 Ginseng Fruit again, which was another 100 Yuanhui's worth of production.
Zhenyuanzi truly lives up to his reputation as a true master of stockpiling!
Zhenyuanzi knew that Bai Chen was using the names of Houtu and Nuwa to blackmail him, but the problem was that even if he knew the truth, he could only accept it.
Although he knew that Bai Chen was extorting money by using the names of Houtu and Nuwa.
But the title of Houtu already includes 36,000 Ginseng Fruit.
If Nuwa doesn't offer tribute now, it's not only implying that Zhenyuanzi considers Nuwa inferior to Houtu, but also shows contempt for Nuwa!
Given the enmity between Nuwa and Houtu, he would inevitably have to bear Nuwa's endless holy wrath.
"Zhenyuanzi, forget about the seventy-two thousand coins, just round it down to a total of one hundred thousand!"
After all, besides what's for Nuwa and Houtu, this great deity also needs to smooth things over with other people, and of course, he needs to get a share for himself too!
Bai Chen thought Zhenyuanzi was completely clueless. This guy only offered sacrifices to Houtu and Nuwa, but didn't he offer sacrifices to the Great God Bai Chen himself?
???
Zhenyuanzi was dumbfounded. Was this how Bai Chen rounded down the price?
Others round down to a lower discount, but this cat adds to it. Why doesn't it just round down 72,000 to a million?
One hundred thousand Ginseng Fruit, I'd have to save up three hundred Yuanhui!
"Zhenyuanzi, as Hong Yun's close friend, you wouldn't be so reluctant to part with even 100,000 Ginseng Fruit, would you?"
Seeing that Zhenyuanzi hadn't yet made up for the 70,000 yuan debt, Bai Chen said something sarcastic.
Bai Chen had already resorted to moral blackmail, Zhenyuanzi could only suppress his anger and say:
"Fellow Daoist Bai Chen, I can give you 100,000 Ginseng Fruit, but could you please help Hong Yun arrange a better background?"
"For example, the son of the chieftain of a large human tribe!"
Zhenyuanzi felt that he could give away 100,000 Ginseng Fruit, but he couldn't give them away for nothing. He wanted to help Hong Yun gain more benefits and avoid taking decades of detours.
"Rest assured!"
Bai Chen gestured to Zhenyuanzi with his eyes to reassure him, and then said:
"When Hong Yun is reincarnated as a human, this great deity will arrange a great auspicious omen for him!"
"When Hong Yun is reincarnated as a human, this great god will make a special trip to his house."
