Chapter 655 Choice
Chapter 655 Choice
Just like many people who sat on the Dragon Throne in ancient times, they enjoyed supreme rights, owned countless beauties, and ate all kinds of delicacies, and they were reluctant to give up.
"Master, to tell you the truth, I have asked several masters for advice, and they said they can let me live up to 120 years old." Mr. Zhao is not satisfied.
"Birth, aging, sickness and death are natural laws." If violated, one will inevitably be punished by heaven, whether it is the beneficiary or the performer.
Of course, people born in Shiluo are dead people and are no longer bound by heaven.
Shi Luo looked at Mr. Zhao's face and said, "You have not used magic to increase your life span."
Mr. Zhao has taken good care of himself over the years and looks younger than he actually is. Shi Luo has not noticed any traces of magic on his body.
"I only have one life, so I can't just use magic casually." When Mr. Zhao was young, he was reckless and didn't take his own life seriously. The older he got, the more afraid he was of dying. He wouldn't take his own body. Do experiments unless you are 100% sure.
The masters he invited before clearly told him that they could prolong his life, but in the end, they just kept him alive. He would still grow old, get sick, drag his decaying body, and die without dignity. .
Mr. Zhao didn't accept it. He wanted to have a body that could run and move.
"They should have told you that after you die, your soul can be introduced into another young body." There are Taoist ways of extending life, but they are not the right way.
"I told you." Mr. Zhao had spent a lot of money on those heavenly masters, and those heavenly masters didn't mind telling him more if they could.
"I will not choose this path unless I have to." Mr. Zhao told Shi Luo honestly, "People are selfish. Even though I gave them countless benefits and they promised to help me live again after my death, but Who knows if something will change then?"
He flattered those masters, who were still condescending when facing him. I'm afraid whether they would help him in the future would all depend on their mood.
Mr. Zhao is not boasting. He was a figure when he was alive. Even if he dies, he will become a powerful ghost. Those heavenly masters will most likely capture him directly and use him for their own purposes.
He still wants to be a human being, not a ghost driven by others.
"Master, I trust you more than them." Mr. Zhao spends a lot of time studying Celestial Masters and spiritual power. Based on his understanding of Celestial Masters, at most two or three of Shi Luo's group are Celestial Masters. Others are ordinary people.
In Mr. Zhao's view, the Celestial Masters have always looked down upon ordinary people because of their unique talent in cultivation. Even if ordinary people run errands for them, they are still looked down upon. But the one who follows Shi Luo is different. She is even better than an ordinary person. Fall in love.
In the eyes of this young heavenly master, all living beings must be equal.
And if she can win the sincere admiration of several men, Shi Luo must be worth following.
He trusts his own vision and judgment.
Of course, those heavenly masters who look down on ordinary people are not wrong. In human society, who with money and status can look down on ordinary people?
Even Mr. Zhao himself is no exception.
"Master, please help me and I can do things for you." Mr. Zhao is a man who can bend and stretch.
"I can't let you have an infinite life." Shi Luo told him the truth.
"Master, I don't need to live for a long time." Mr. Zhao immediately heard the implication of Shi Luo's words. He was secretly happy and respected Shi Luo more and more. "I know that there is no way to live forever in this world. Life and death are determined by fate. I can Accepting my own death, I just want to live a few more years than the destiny God has set for me and be in better health."
"Do you want to wait until you are 90 to still have the body of a 50-year-old?" Shi Luo asked bluntly.
"Yes."
"I have a pill." Shi Luo didn't hide it from him. "It can help you remove toxins from your body and make you healthier than you are now."
Mr. Zhao's hand holding the teapot trembled, and the water in the teapot splashed out.
This is something ordinary people only dream of.
"I still have Gu worms, which can make you have the physical fitness of a 50-year-old when you are a hundred years old." Shi Luo said again shockingly.
"Master, what do you need me to do for you?" Master Zhao shook his hands and wiped away the water stains on the coffee table.
No matter how knowledgeable he was, he was still excited after hearing Shi Luo's words.
Shi Luo looked at him and said nothing.
"Master, there are indeed many invisible transactions in this market. Four or five years ago, most of the people who came here were either rich or noble. Here, they can enjoy excitement that they cannot enjoy outside." Mr. Zhao gave After changing his attitude, he consciously said: "Four or five years ago, I accidentally met a heavenly master. Later, that heavenly master introduced me to several others. I provided them with a steady stream of money and searched for spiritual beings for them. They hired an old ghost to amplify the evil thoughts of market customers for him to absorb, and then he used the golden spirit to earn more money for me."
This is a cycle that benefits all three parties.
He still remembered the problem of market numbers mentioned by Shi Luo. Mr. Zhao gave a wry smile and said, "Master, I cannot support the entire market by myself. It's not that I don't have the ability. It's that running this market requires cooperation from many aspects."
Tang Qiang and Hammer looked at each other. I'm afraid there are also moths in the police force.
Otherwise, four or five years ago, when there was no barrier, it would not be difficult to find this place.
"In the past year or so, the market has indeed been disrupted. Apart from me, there is also an old money person who has lived here for a long time. We are in charge of our own business. When the old money learned that I invited several masters, he was also shameless Come here, Lao Qian has a lower bottom line than I do, and he recruited those who were good at gambling and those who had cases on their backs, and were later taken away by one of the heavenly masters."
People who carry cases on their backs are always invisible, and even if they disappear, no one will know about them.
The ones chosen by old money for gambling are those who never return home for a long time, and their disappearance in the short term will not attract the attention of the police.
"I know those people are just some of the people chosen by the Heavenly Master." There must be other people taken away, but that's none of his business, he doesn't care.
But meeting Shi Luo's gaze at this moment, Mr. Zhao felt a little guilty.
Of course, but if he were given the choice again, he would still stand by and watch.
"In addition, the market is different from the streets outside. It is lively here at night." "If you were asked to trade your current status and wealth for your health, would you be willing?" Shi Luo asked.
Mr. Zhao said without any hesitation, "I do."
Even if there is no such market, he has connections, experience, and ambition.
Besides—
"Master, I find that things are not peaceful here recently." Mr. Zhao is a visionary person. He does not work behind closed doors like Lao Qian. Although he does not go out often, he never misses the news from the outside. "If my guess is right, I’m afraid there’s going to be a big fight here.”
Even if Shi Luo doesn't break it today, the barrier will be destroyed by the coming war.
He will still have nothing by then, and I'm afraid he will have to be arrested.
"Didn't those heavenly masters tell you that if you had followed your original destiny, you would have less than five years to live?" Shi Luo suddenly asked him.
Mr. Zhao's hands were shaking again.
He has paid attention to maintenance in recent years, but when he was young, he was ignorant and often injured. In the end, the root cause of the disease was left. Even if he took good care of it again, it would be impossible to eliminate the pain in his body.
"Master, they didn't tell me." Master Zhao gritted his teeth.
He thought that he was sincere enough to those heavenly masters, but he didn't expect that those few people were still not sincere enough to him.
"Master, can you help me?" Mr. Zhao glanced at the beauty standing behind him. The beauty understood, walked away, and soon came back. She was holding a box in her hand, and the beauty placed the box in front of Mr. Zhao.
Mr. Zhao did not show off and opened the box directly, "These are all the old items I found for those heavenly masters."
The box has three layers in total. The first layer is filled with various jade stones, the second layer is made of several thumb-thick pieces of wood, and the third layer is filled with three daggers.
"This wood is all taken from a thousand-year-old tree, and the daggers are also old. I asked someone to confirm that all three daggers are more than a thousand years old." Mr. Zhao put on his gloves, picked up the bottom, and looked at some An old copper dagger, "This is 4000 years old."
The 4000-year-old dagger is still in good condition, with no other damage except for some patina.
"This dagger and wood were designated by those heavenly masters." Since the other party looked down on him, he had better choices and there was no need to give the things to those heavenly masters anymore. He told Shi Luo the truth , "These three daggers were bought from abroad."
The country has countless national treasures scattered abroad, and these three are among them.
Mr. Zhao pushed the box towards Shi Luo and said, "Master, if you don't mind, these little gadgets can be regarded as a meeting gift for the master."
Shi Luo picked up the copper dagger.
This copper dagger has a different shape from today's daggers. It is golden in color, has a flat stem without grids, broad shoulders, broad flat leaves, and is in the shape of an acute triangle. It is an ancient weapon.
This weapon is not big, but it has a strong aura of evil.
If ordinary people are exposed to it for a long time, their body and mind will be affected.
Shi Luo sealed the evil spirit in the dagger and said to Mr. Zhao, "I accept this dagger."
After finishing his words, he looked at the wood in the middle layer again, "This is a thousand-year-old peach wood."
"Master, I heard that peach wood can ward off evil spirits and cure diseases. It is a sacred tree that can defeat evil spirits and control ghosts." Mr. Zhao looked at the wood that was no different from ordinary wood and asked, "Can these pieces of wood do the same?"
"Other peach trees have not been enhanced by magic, so they may not have such effects, but this peach tree does." This peach tree has grown for thousands of years and absorbed enough of the essence of the sun and moon, so it naturally gave birth to spiritual wisdom.
Shi Luo asked Mr. Zhao curiously, "When you cut down the tree, this peach tree didn't resist?"
This peach tree has existed for such a long time, so it must have developed spiritual intelligence. If you want to take part of it, it cannot be captured without restraint.
"We broke three people." Mr. Zhao replied: "The three people were seriously injured. I don't know why, but the peach tree didn't resist. We didn't dare to really cut down the whole tree, so we just cut down one. Take out the middle section of the branch and make it look like this."
"Since you have done your research, you should know that peach trees should not see blood."
Master Zhao suddenly realized, "So, the three brothers must have been seriously injured, and the blood stained the peach tree."
"But for a thousand-year-old peach tree, a little blood is not enough to make him taboo." Shi Luo said.
"Then why did it let my brothers go?"
"I do not know."
Shi Luo's attitude was so good that Mr. Zhao was a little at a loss.
"Master, these jade stones have no spiritual power?" Mr. Zhao asked when he saw that Shi Luo refused to accept the jade stones.
"Yes, not much." Shi Luo tried each one, "I'm not short of jade."
Mingxun said that he would find him as much as she wanted.
Master Zhao knew that these masters were hiding their secrets, and he was happy in his heart. Since the master accepted the wood and dagger, he agreed to make a deal with him.
Shi Luo took out the elixir and gave him three pills, "One pill a month can detoxify."
