When I was a Taoist

Chapter 499 Don't Be Changed By It
"Senior, you want me to join the No. [-] Archives Bureau to serve you?"

I stared at Niu Jin with wide eyes, I didn't expect him to play such a trick all of a sudden, and even wanted to dig me out from the Daoist Association.Without any hesitation, I quickly waved my hand and said with a sneer: "Senior, don't be joking, I am not qualified to join you. If you are free, I will leave first, and we will meet later."

After speaking, I quickly rubbed oil on the soles of my feet and wanted to escape.But as soon as I ran to the door, I heard a cold snort from behind, and then my body felt as if it had been filled with lead, and I couldn't move.

"What kind of ability is this? It can hold me down casually." I couldn't help but set off a storm in my heart. Niu Jin seemed like an ordinary old man. I can't move.If I were his enemy, I'm afraid there are more than a dozen dead by now.

"Little baby, what do you think my archives office is, can you come and leave whenever you want?"

Niu Jin came slowly behind me, and then I found a sharp object on my back. I was so scared that I broke out in cold sweat, and said with a wry smile: "Senior, if you want to recruit me into the archives office Don’t need to be like this. As the saying goes, twisted melons are not sweet, if I was poached by force, my heart would not be here, and the efficiency of work would naturally become very low, you are right.”

"I can't control this. I only know that any good seedlings must never be let go, not to mention that you are still staying in the Daoist Association, and you must never be let go."

Niu Jin snorted coldly, listening to his words, he seemed to be afraid of the existence of Daohui.After thinking about it, I felt relieved. After all, the Archives Bureau is a supernatural organization specially approved by the government, while the Daoist Society is a non-government force that is not subject to jurisdiction.Now that the power of the Taoist Society is gradually growing, it seems that it has threatened the existence of the No. [-] Archives Bureau, so Niu Jin will try every means to poach young blood.

Until he was worried about something, I quickly swore: "Senior, don't worry, I will never do anything to disturb the order of the spiritual world. If I violate it, I will be struck by lightning!"

After a pause, I added with a sneer: "Senior, I heard that you and Elder Qingquan are old acquaintances. If you forcefully poach me from the Daoist Association, Elder Qingquan will definitely fight you desperately and hurt both of you." It’s not worth it to be so friendly. And senior Shangguan also told me that if I just joined the archives bureau like this, senior Shangguan will be unhappy."

"That kid Shangguanmu? Huh, you still want to use him to suppress me. When I became famous, he didn't know where to drink milk."

Niu Jin slapped me hard on the head, which made me dizzy and fell to the ground.I thought I had completely pissed off Niu Jin, but when I was feeling that this time was a bad one, I unexpectedly found that I had regained control of my body.

I hurriedly got up and saw that Niu Jin had sat on the chair again, looked at me coldly and said, "The Daoist Society is getting more and more prosperous now, a few decades ago there was a Shangguanmu, followed by Gao Liang, I didn't expect another you to appear now. If this continues, the Daoist Society will sooner or later replace us!"

I rubbed my nose and laughed, not daring to answer his words.After his anger was almost gone, I asked cautiously: "Senior, do you still know my master?"

"What? That bastard Gao Liang is your master?"

Niu Jin stared in surprise, then shook his head and scolded: "No wonder, you have the same stubborn temper as that bastard. I wanted to recruit him to join the Archives Bureau, but I was fooled by his smooth tongue. It's karma, I didn't expect his apprentice to fall into my hands again, even if Qingquan and Shangguanmu stop me today, I will dig you in!"

Hearing this, I gave myself a mouthful in regret, and secretly scolded myself for talking too much, now there is no hope of escaping.At this time, Niu Jin took out a document from the drawer and threw it to me, saying: "If you don't want to be abolished, you can sign it. From now on, you can only be a member of the Archives Bureau. If you dare to betray, you will be considered Daoist." I will not trouble you, and I will never let you go."

"Senior, aren't you buying and selling by force?" I glanced at the content of the document and said without tears.

Niu Jin raised his legs and looked at me, and said in a deep voice: "So what? The development of the Daohui has caused dissatisfaction from above, and do you think the Daohui is just a pool of clear water? To tell you the truth, the current Daohui has become In the muddy water, except for Shangguanmu and Qingquan, the others have more or less deteriorated. You are a good seedling, I don’t want to see you go the wrong way, and I don’t want you to become their victim. Don’t look at the surface of Shangguanmu It’s bright, but it’s already hard to protect yourself, how can you still care about you. You have to think about it, this is the only right choice for you.”

Taking a deep breath, I held the document in both hands and gently put it back on Niu Jin's desk: "Senior, I actually understand what you said just now. It's just that I still carry the last wish of a senior on my body, and the Dao will meet me Thank you, I will never give up even if there is a dragon's pool and a tiger's den in front of me. But I can assure you that even if I can't change the structure of the Daoist Society, I can not be changed by it."

After finishing speaking, I shrank my neck and waited for Niu Jin to lose his temper, but the latter just glared at me a few times, and finally said helplessly: "If I try harder, I'm afraid I will become a laughingstock. No matter what, our Archives Bureau is doomed I can’t recruit pillars like you. If you regret it in the future, you can come to me at any time.”

Hearing this, I beamed with joy, I didn't expect that Niu Jin's temper would be willing to back down.But seeing his lonely face, I couldn't bear it. After hesitating for a moment, I tentatively said: "Don't wait until later, in fact, I have an idea now, and I don't know if senior can agree. Although I can't formally join the Archives Bureau , but if you have a task, I can help you complete it, and it will definitely not take up any benefits from the Archives Bureau."

"You're a cunning kid. You want White Wolf to find another backer. But you still found the right person. With Shangguanmu and Qingquan, you can only be bullied at the Taoist headquarters. If you report My awesome name can scare those turtles to tremble three times!"

Niu Jin's mood improved a lot, he looked at me with a half-smile and said, "I'm not that stingy, I won't squeeze your labor for nothing. The benefits of the Archives Bureau will still be given to you, and you can also exist in the form of non-staff personnel. It’s just that because they are not formal members, there will be many restrictions on power.”

"If I like power, I'm afraid I would have agreed to you from the very beginning. In fact, freedom is more suitable for me." I smiled, and at the same time, I also looked forward to it.
