Chapter 210
Early the next morning, Lin Zhangqing got up and completed the cultivation of the Five Elements Chaos Sutra.
Seeing that it was still early, he fed all his spirit pets again, especially Chuyi and Chuer, who had also worked hard for more than ten days following Lin Zhangqing, so he took care of them as a priority.
After finishing all this, the time was about right, and he took back the Small Five Elements Maze Array set up in the room.
Then he found the innkeeper to refund a little deposit, left the market, and flew toward the guest ship landing field; he had already come back and forth to this place two or three times, so he could be considered familiar with the road.
However, for the sake of safety, Lin Zhangqing still put Chuyi and Chuer out.
Fortunately, everything was calm along the way, and nothing happened, and he successfully arrived at the guest ship landing field.
There were already dozens or hundreds of people around the landing field, waiting here in twos and threes; of course, there were also those who were alone like Lin Zhangqing.
However, Lin Zhangqing had already experienced it many times, so he did not feel curious when he saw it.
He directly found a corner with fewer people to stand in, and then recalled Chuyi and Chuer and put them into the spirit beast bag.
Generally, in public places, he used the spirit beast bag, so as not to be too high-profile.
Looking at the sky, he estimated that in another quarter of an hour or so, it would be about time to start boarding; he did not expect that at this time, someone would actually walk toward Lin Zhangqing.
Lin Zhangqing immediately became alert, staring at this approaching middle-aged cultivator, wanting to see what he wanted to do.
The person who came also saw Lin Zhangqing's wariness and knew that he was indeed a bit presumptuous, so he stopped at a slightly further place.
Then he took the initiative to speak: "This fellow Daoist, you don't have to be too nervous; I have no malice.
My surname is Zhang, called Zhang Jiahao; the four of us formed a demon hunting squad, and we still have a little bit of a small reputation in the loose cultivator circle of Qiyun Market; you can ask around when you have time.
It's like this; I saw that you have two Golden Winged Birds, which are very suitable for detecting and finding specific targets.
So I want to invite you to join our hunting team; in the future, you can get thirty percent of the harvest from the team's demon hunting."
Lin Zhangqing heard this and only then realized that it was for this reason, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
But he still shook his head and refused directly: "Sorry, I have things to do on this trip, and I have no intention of joining a demon hunting squad; you go find someone else to try."
Zhang Jiahao was a bit disappointed, but he still knew that the possibility of success in coming up to pull people like this was very small.
It was just that it was rare to see a suitable person, so he could not help but come over directly.
After thinking about it slightly, he lowered his voice and spoke again: "Then is the fellow Daoist interested in cooperating once? If this time is successful, I guarantee an income of at least twenty thousand spirit stones."
Lin Zhangqing became alert again in his heart; running over for no reason and saying that cooperating once would have an income of twenty thousand spirit stones, no matter how he looked at it, there was a problem.
So he refused again without hesitation: "I have already said that I am not interested in demon hunting; you go! Don't waste time here."
Zhang Jiahao had no choice but to make a final effort and said: "I know you don't believe me, but I really have no malice; this time someone discovered the traces of a few Three-Colored Deer.
Because you have two Golden Winged Birds, there is a great possibility of finding them, so I want to cooperate with you once."
Lin Zhangqing heard Zhang Jiahao's words and was greatly shocked in his heart; he knew too much about this kind of spirit beast, the Three-Colored Deer; they were simply super good employees in the cultivation world, and Lin Zhangqing would not mind having as many as came.
And they were very easy to raise, only needing to eat grass, and occasionally feeding them some Spirit Nurturing Pills would do; the resources consumed were very small, mainly because Lin Zhangqing could also afford to raise them.
Plus, now that the inner space had suddenly become so much larger, he indeed needed more Three-Colored Deer to work for Lin Zhangqing.
Afterward, Lin Zhangqing asked: "Where did the Three-Colored Deer you mentioned appear?"
Zhang Jiahao saw that Lin Zhangqing was finally a bit interested and quickly answered: "In Jinzhou Prefecture; as for exactly where, you need to join us.
Or after confirming that we are cooperating together and having a certain guarantee, then I can tell you." Lin Zhangqing nodded; people like Zhang Jiahao who could pull up a demon hunting squad were certainly not stupid and would not be tricked out of important information in a few words; he was just about to ask him how to cooperate.
He did not expect that the sound transmission array on the guest ship began to make a sound, notifying guests to start boarding; Lin Zhangqing had a Jia-character voucher and belonged to the first batch.
So he could only say: "I am in room Jia Twelve; if fellow Daoist Zhang is interested, you can come over and talk in detail after the guest ship officially sets sail."
Zhang Jiahao was overjoyed and quickly agreed.
Afterward, Lin Zhangqing held the voucher and successfully boarded the ship; he was already familiar with the layout of the guest ship and soon found the location of room Jia Twelve.
He activated the restriction on the door with the boarding voucher; the layout inside the room was still the same as before, with no changes.
However, in a while, that Zhang Jiahao would come over; Lin Zhangqing had to seize the time to check twice with his divine sense to see if there were any problems in the room.
Fortunately, after checking, he did not find anything wrong; after considering it, he still set up the Small Five Elements Maze Array, although theoretically, no one should dare to make a move on the guest ship.
However, just in case, he released twenty-four Purple Crystal Scorpions and let them hide around Lin Zhangqing to prevent any sudden situations.
After finishing all this, Lin Zhangqing already felt that the guest ship was increasing its altitude, and then it quickly accelerated and set sail.
Lin Zhangqing began to organize the tea set, preparing to brew tea to entertain Zhang Jiahao when he came over, but it would not be the second-stage Cyan Jade Tea, but ordinary spirit tea, which was also found in his spoils of war.
He certainly would not drink this kind of ordinary spirit tea himself, but this time it was just right to use it to entertain Zhang Jiahao, a cultivator he had just met.
Soon, the restriction on the door was triggered, and Lin Zhangqing got up to open the door.
The one who came to the door was Zhang Jiahao; he came faster than Lin Zhangqing expected, and he was not alone, but also brought another middle-aged female cultivator with him.
Lin Zhangqing frowned, but still opened the door and let them in.
The three sat down as host and guest, and Zhang Jiahao first apologized: "Sorry, fellow Daoist, for bringing people over without your consent.
Mainly, although I am the captain of the demon hunting squad, I have never been good at words; this cooperation is especially important to us and cannot be lost.
So I think it's better to let my Dao companion speak, so it will be clearer."
Lin Zhangqing was also very helpless, but since people had already come, he could not drive them away!
So he could only say: "It doesn't matter, guests are guests! Just consider it a boring journey, and everyone chatting together."
Hearing Lin Zhangqing's words, Zhang Jiahao's Dao companion also laughed and said: "This fellow Daoist looks quite broad-minded! One look and you can tell you must have an extraordinary background.
If it were someone else coming uninvited, they might have been given the cold shoulder; it's still the fellow Daoist who is broad-minded and has the capacity to tolerate others.
I am Li Xiangjun; looking at it, I should be a few years older than you, fellow Daoist; you can call me Sister Jun in the future; I don't know how to address you, fellow Daoist?"
Lin Zhangqing heard this and could not help but nod; she was indeed much better at speaking than Zhang Jiahao, making people feel good about her.
"Little brother Zhang Dejun, I have met Brother Zhang and Sister Jun; please have some tea, both of you!"
Hearing the name Lin Zhangqing reported, Zhang Jiahao was fine, just pulled the corner of his mouth, clearly restraining his laughter.
Li Xiangjun did not care about that much and laughed "hee, hee, hee"; after a while, she stopped.
Then she said: "Sorry, fellow Daoist Zhang's name is quite humorous and elegant; I couldn't help it for a moment."
Lin Zhangqing was helpless; it was not the first time he had encountered this situation; Senior Chen Jieyi had laughed, Chen Ziya had laughed, and now this Li Xiangjun had also laughed; he had no choice, he could not be as knowledgeable as them!
