Bai Zhi picked up the pill and said, "As a biological being, the desire for survival is engraved in human DNA. Even if we don't care about it when we are young, the closer we get to old age, the more we are trapped by our instincts."
"I believe that even for someone like you who is highly skilled in magic, aging is a nightmare that lingers in your heart."
"When your aging body tells you that it's no longer able to do what you want, you may often wonder if you could live longer so that you can see your younger generations grow up healthily."
"You are always worried about your descendants, afraid that they will not be able to take care of themselves after you die, and afraid that some of your things will be lost. Now, taking this medicine can solve such problems."
The expression on Dad's face froze.
Bai Zhi's words entered his mind like the devil's whisper.
The reason why he keeps chattering now is because he wants to teach what he has learned to his juniors like Jackie Chan and Xiaoyu as soon as possible.
He has been the owner of an antique shop for so many years. He is not rich, but he is indeed quite wealthy. He is also at an age where most of his body is likely to be buried in the grave. Why does he still care so much about every penny?
It's also to save some money for Jackie Chan. My nephew's luck is not very good and he is often in financial difficulties. Now that he is still alive, he can help him a little. If I die, I can only rely on my previous accumulation to help Jackie Chan a little.
300 Baizhi's Devil's Whisper
"Huh... This thing is really amazing. Even I, your father, can't help but be tempted by it."
Dad took a deep breath and said in a deep voice.
He does have a high level of cultivation, but he is also a human being. How could he not have the instincts of living things?
Even if he said that he didn't want it, he would keep thinking in his mind that if he had such a thing, then the Holy Lord and other demons and monsters would not be able to last more than a few rounds in front of him.
What a high-spirited spirit that was.
"If you want it, old man, just sign an agreement with me and you can take it away~"
"No thanks. I won't accept your so-called rejuvenation drug, and I won't sign a contract with a demon. As we all know, demons don't keep their word."
Dad refused immediately.
But he still remembered that in that magic, the black energy favored Bai Zhi even more than the Holy Lord.
That means that the black energy thinks that Baizhi can lead the darkness to revive.
So, he couldn't promise anything in order not to get caught up in it.
Bai Zhi spread her hands helplessly, "It seems that the misunderstanding between us is really too deep."
"But I still welcome you to come again. I'm not too busy here. You can talk and chat if you have nothing to do."
"Especially Xiaoyu, I have a lot of snacks here, and comic books are everywhere. If you like, come here often."
Baizhi said to Xiaoyu very generously.
It is still difficult for other people to ruin his own things, but Xiaoyu is a little elusive girl, and no one knows what earth-shattering things she will do.
Therefore, it is a wise choice to communicate more with Xiaoyu. It would even be perfect if you can pull her to your side.
"Yeah, of course I'll come!"
Xiaoyu's face was full of joy. The food here was delicious and fun, and Baizhi was not the kind of guy who would show his fangs and claws and want to kill people. How great was that.
"Xiao Yu, stop disturbing others!" Jackie Chan whispered.
"Mr. Jackie Chan, please don't be so distant. As far as I remember, you are an archaeologist, right?"
Bai Zhi turned her gaze to Jackie Chan, and smiled when she saw his slightly defensive look.
"There's no need to be so cautious. Archaeology is not a very profitable business, right? I believe Mr. Jackie Chan must have often worried about his archaeological funding."
"That's... true."
Jackie Chan hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded. It is well known that archaeology is not easy to do.
Especially someone like him who needs to travel around the world.
The channel for obtaining the most funds is actually to serve as a tour guide to scenic spots and historical sites, or to help District 13 obtain some funds.
This amount of money is definitely enough if you want to stay in one place comfortably.
But unfortunately, whether he was helping his father collect some magical materials or doing his own job, which was archaeological work, it was impossible for him to stay there for a long time.
The consequence is that you are often short of money.
"Mr. Jackie Chan, do you mind if I invest some money? I don't ask for anything. You just need to hand over the artifacts you obtained from the archaeological excavation to me."
"You don't have to refuse for Jackie Chan. Think about it. Archaeologists with sufficient funding and archaeologists without sufficient funding are two completely different extremes."
Seeing that her father frowned and was about to open his mouth to say something, Bai Zhi spoke immediately, before her father could speak.
"Think about it, Jackie Chan is still working as a tour guide for many people to make money in order to realize his career ideals, but his main job is archaeology, and he shouldn't waste his precious time on these trivial matters."
"You have also seen the gold piled up at the door. I believe that with my support, Mr. Jackie Chan will explore countless treasures. Our company also has a professional media team."
"With their propaganda, Jackie Chan will become a well-known archaeologist in this country... no, in the whole world. Xiaoyu, even you can proudly say when you go out that Uncle Long is a famous archaeologist."
"You can even see your Uncle Long in your textbooks, and your classmates will be amazed that you have such an uncle."
“That’s awesome!!”
Xiaoyu was quickly attracted by Baizhi's words.
Children always want to show off in front of others.
Being able to show off in front of classmates would be more exciting than going to the amusement park ten times.
"Jackie Chan, go!"
After hearing Bai Zhi's words and seeing Xiaoyu's reaction, Dad took Jackie Chan and the others away without hesitation.
It’s not because he saw through Bai Zhi’s conspiracy or anything.
But he was afraid that if he stayed here any longer, he would really cross his bottom line and agree to something.
When faced with unreasonable enemies, they will not be afraid because they know that if they do not resist, they will die.
But if the enemy speaks reasonably and what he says is deeply rooted in people's hearts and is extremely tempting, and there is no threat to life, perhaps the intention to fight against evil will not be so determined.
Don't test human nature.
My father, who has lived for so many years, knows this truth very well.
"Xiaoyu, remember to come often~"
Bai Zhi sat quietly in the boss chair, not stopping the others' thoughts at all.
Because she knew that what she had just said had already taken root in their hearts.
Xiaoyu also turned around and made an OK gesture to Baizhi.
Bai Zhi clapped her hands only after all members of the Dragon Team were pulled out.
Immediately, the person in charge of business in the media team came out from the darkness.
"You know what to do, right?"
Bai Zhi said without turning her head.
"Of course, there are a lot of university graduates majoring in archaeology and tour guides during this period, so the market competition should be very fierce."
"With our publicity and recruitment, a cheap and professional team will immediately take root in people's hearts. With a professional team, why would they hire a little savage?"
"Besides, it is very normal for individual archaeologists and guides who have no certification and no protection to do all kinds of bad things to their wealthy employers in the middle of nowhere because of a moment of anger."
"It only takes a little bit of catalyst to make the rich and the people avoid such people~"
The business director of the media team smiled brightly and quickly listed ideas for Bai Zhi.
What kind of work did they do before?
Those were all aimed at each planet. If we now use these methods against a few people, it would be like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut.
"Hmm, you decide."
Bai Zhi did not comment, and a flame rose in her hand. Just now, when these flames inexplicably flew into her body, she felt that the world seemed to have changed a little.
She could feel as if there was a powerful will looking at her gently, conveying omnipresent love.
301 So what is the price?
A wonderful feeling surrounded Bai Zhi's heart. She could feel that this gaze was everywhere, whispering to her all the time.
Although it was strange, this realization was like a mother, seemingly constantly giving her something.
But in addition to this gaze, there was another slightly aggressive feeling, as if there was another will that was rejecting her and wanted to suppress her, but this will was suppressed by that kind gaze and had no effect on her.
However, although that kind will was giving her something, a feeling of confusion and darkness was also constantly evolving within it.
"Is this what's so special about this world, the balance of yin and yang?"
Bai Zhi let out a breath. She could feel that as the power continued to grow, the whole world seemed to be changing drastically.
This world is very special. When positive energy overwhelms negative energy, a powerful demon will appear and turn it upside down. Then a powerful savior will appear and destroy the demon.
This cycle will continue, and each generation of demons and saviors will be more powerful than the previous one.
If we put our left foot under our right foot, perhaps it won’t be long before this world becomes incredibly powerful.
However, the Eight Immortals encountered a bug and sealed the demons in hell. The Holy Lord was also separated from the talisman. Although he represented the demons in the world, his wisdom and strength were greatly reduced and he posed no threat. As a result, the black energy was suppressed for a long time, and the duration was measured in thousands of years.
"Hmm....But is this because you like me?"
Bai Zhi tilted her head, feeling as if she was being favored by a rich woman and being forced to give her a lot of things.
As for the Holy Lord, he was looking at the dragon talisman on the ground in horror.
"How come half of my fire demon energy was taken away?"
He originally wanted to use the special properties of the dragon talisman to verify Bai Zhi's identity, but he didn't expect that under his control, he only extracted a little bit of the fire demon energy and dragon power, just like a gas leak, and he couldn't stop it at all.
Nearly half of the fire demon energy and dragon power turned into the fire dragon, and then flew into the sky and flew away in his astonished eyes.
"Holy Lord, I think Bai Zhi is really your daughter. Look, she is even better than you."
"You are such an unqualified father. Shouldn't you prepare some gifts or something? I will then apologize to her on your behalf."
Valon stood in front of the statue of the Holy Lord whose brain was a little out of order. "Although you have lost the fire magic energy, it doesn't matter. At least she is your daughter, isn't she?"
"If I had such an excellent offspring, I would be so happy that I would jump for joy."
".....Wallon, you know, a terrifying guy might be born in the future."
After a moment of silence, the Holy Lord spoke quietly.
"Indeed, I think Miss Baizhi is really amazing and has a bright future."
Valon nodded in agreement, "So, Holy Lord, why don't you prepare some gifts and apologize? Maybe Miss Baizhi can even release you from the statue."
"I'm not talking about her, I'm talking about our enemies."
The red light in the Holy Lord statue was a little dimmer than before. "Bai Zhi's talent is very strong. She can even forcibly attract my fire magic energy and dragon power."
"But you know what, all this comes at a price."
"Price? What price?"
Walon looked at the Holy Lord with some concern. Bai Zhi was his major financial sponsor, so nothing could go wrong with her.
"This world has a balance of yin and yang. Bai Zhi's talent is so strong that the black energy has probably overwhelmed the positive energy. But the positive energy won't just give in. I think it won't be long before a terrifying enemy appears under the operation of the positive energy."
“Perhaps, someone who is not inferior to the Eight Immortals will be born.”
"Not inferior to the Eight Immortals? The ones who sealed you and the other demons?"
Having been with the Holy Lord for so long, he has a better understanding of how the Holy Lord was sealed.
Those immortals in ancient times are not comparable to archaeologists like Jackie Chan. They are all extremely powerful and sealed the eight demons with their own strength.
"But this is just my guess, so there's no need to worry too much... As for what you said about giving her a gift, I agree with this plan."
Hearing what the Holy Lord said, Valon instantly became alert.
He had been hesitating for so long just to get something he didn't know from the Holy Lord, and then sell it to Bai Zhi in exchange for golden gold.
"You know, in ancient times, humans were ruled by us eight demons. At that time, humans were unwilling to accept this and always sought to overthrow us. They studied magic, martial arts, and many other systems."
"I was amazed at the wisdom of mankind, and I drew a lot of inspiration from it. I created many spells, and even solidified them into a part of my body's ability."
"So this gift is a spell?"
