Chapter 411

Chen Nuo stared at him, saying such big talk really isn't afraid of heavenly punishment.

"My friend is the mountain god here; you want anything, just tell me, and I'll have my friend find it for you."

Jin Zha said.

"Host, this is a good idea; this way you don't have to worry about finding maifashi yourself—just let the mountain god find it for you directly."

The system excitedly said.

"Nonsense, do I need you to tell me this? I've already thought of it."

Chen Nuo then stopped and looked at Jin Zha: "Your friend is the mountain god here?"

"Exactly."

Seeing Chen Nuo finally show interest, Jin Zha thrust out his chest proudly and answered.

"Not to mention this little hill—even this whole Taihang Mountain Range is under my friend's management, so whatever you want, my friend can get it for you."

"Then this is easily settled."

Chen Nuo looked at Jin Zha: "Take me to meet your friend."

Jin Zha looked at Chen Nuo's appearance and knew his words had sparked his interest; the next moment he stated his request: "You make me clothes—just like the style you're wearing."

"Clothes are easy; first take me to meet your friend."

Chen Nuo said.

"Alright."

Jin Zha nodded, had just taken two steps, then stopped again: "But this is baseless—what if you regret it later?"

"What's there to regret over just one piece of clothing? Hurry up and take me."

Chen Nuo was a bit anxious; he was still waiting for the maifashi and the system's promised energy.

"This won't do—mere words aren't binding. Do this: write a receipt, so later even if you want to renege, you can't get away."

Jin Zha said.

"Where in these wild mountains and ridges am I supposed to write a receipt?"

Chen Nuo was somewhat angry: "Are you deliberately trying to trap me?"

"How could I trap you? I'm an immortal."

Being distrusted really isn't pleasant; Jin Zha was also a bit angry.

"How about this: you first take me to meet your friend, and after meeting him we write the receipt—okay?"

Chen Nuo thought it over and decided to compromise.

"No good—after seeing your friend, what use is writing a receipt then?"

"Is he your friend or mine?"

Chen Nuo snapped: "Sign the receipt on the spot when I see your friend; if I'm the faithless, treacherous type, just have your friend refuse to help me."

Jin Zha thought it over, found Chen Nuo's reasoning very sound, and brought Chen Nuo deeper inside.

The trees here were abundant, fortunately blocking the sun, making it wonderfully cool; walking further ahead, a cave appeared, outside was a flat patch of ground, and a long-haired man in blue robes leaned against a stone drinking wine.

Chen Nuo looked at that stone, growing more and more familiar; when he drew near, he realized—this wasn't the thing he'd been searching for all along? After searching so long, it turned out to be here.

"Taihang."

Upon seeing that man, Jin Zha became very excited, ran over in three steps made two, and reached out his hand.

Chen Nuo still thought he wanted to hug that man, but who knew Jin Zha lunged forward and snatched the wine pot from the man's hand.

"Ay, just this little left—how do you drink it so fast? This isn't drinking, this is guzzling."

Jin Zha looked with disdain at the mere drop left in the pot, drank it, still disdainful, yet reluctant to give it back to the man.

This wine's aroma was rich and mellow; just smelling it felt somewhat familiar; Chen Nuo sniffed again carefully and realized—it was his own peach blossom brew.

Strange—I clearly don't know this man, so how does he have my peach blossom brew?

"Give it back to me; I had the Land God sneak it from the banquet for me—just this little bit."

The man spoke.

After he said that, Chen Nuo suddenly understood—oh, it was pilfered, no wonder.

The man was grappling with Jin Zha over the wine pot when he suddenly spotted the person behind Jin Zha, jumped in fright: "What's going on? You actually brought a mortal here?"

"Hehe, I met him when I came earlier to find you."

Jin Zha said: "His clothes are really special—I also want one, just want him to make me one."

"So what does bringing a mortal here have to do with you?"

"This matter is of great importance."

Jin Zha said exaggeratedly, suddenly remembered something, slapped his forehead: "You don't say, I almost forgot—wait a moment, let's write the receipt now."

"What receipt?"

Jin Zha extended his hand, pinched a seal, a golden sheet of paper appeared before the three, with the clothing-making matter just discussed written on it, then Jin Zha pressed his handprint on it,

then handed the paper to Chen Nuo: "Your turn."

Chen Nuo still pretended to be an ordinary mortal: "No ink pad—how am I to press a handprint?"

"Right, I forgot about that."

Jin Zha slapped his forehead: "Wait a bit, I'll conjure up an ink pad for you."

Speaking, Jin Zha opened his hand, conjured an ink pad out of thin air and handed it to Chen Nuo: "Done—this ink pad is ready; just press on it."

Chen Nuo looked at the ink pad emitting golden light: "Is this ink pad golden?"

The paper is golden, the characters on it are also golden; if not for the golden glow along the outlines of the characters, Chen Nuo wouldn't be able to make out what's written.

Now this handprint ink pad is actually golden too—this Jin Zha truly lives up to his name; I don't know what his second brother Wooden Cicada is like, surely he can't be a blockhead everywhere.

"Ah, never mind—don't stare at him being golden; in this chapter I'm not just looking at the handprint, he does have magical power.

-"

Jin Zha looked at Chen Nuo with a disdainful expression and hurriedly explained.

If you have magical power, then you don't need to worry about it.

Chen Nuo shrugged and pressed his own seal.

As soon as Chen Nuo's seal touched it, the golden paper instantly turned into a golden light that shot into Chen Nuo's mind. Chen Nuo quickly tapped the system, "What is this? Is it harmful to me?"

"Host, it's fine"

The system said, "Immortal beings often use this method to make agreements. You just haven't made one with anyone before, so you don't know about it. This is also quite common in the Heavenly Court as a minor magical technique."

Since the system opened up to me, it has become much more lively, unlike its previous emotionless mechanical tone.

This voice sounds like a real person talking to me. Chen Nuo was initially unaccustomed to it, but gradually got used to it.

"So, does this technique disappear after I complete the agreement?"

Chen Nuo asked.

"Yes, that's right"

The system said, "And it's just making a piece of clothing for someone. Host, you only need one hundred merit points to exchange for it. Isn't that a good deal?"

"A good deal my ass. If it weren't for this Jin Zha, I could find it myself."

Chen Nuo complained, just not knowing how long it would take time-wise.

"What agreement?"

The mountain god had already drunk the alcohol he just seized. Hearing Jin Zha mention an agreement, he came over and asked, "What agreement did you make with this mortal?"

"Clothing"

Jin Zha said, "I really like this mortal's clothing. I've never seen such a style before. Once I make one and bring it back, I'll let my two brothers see it and broaden their horizons. Last time, Nezha somehow got a skirt from somewhere, and it was very beautiful. He showed it off to me for a long time."

"No, he's wearing a skirt, you don't wear skirts, and showing off to you—can you even be jealous?"

The mountain god listened to Jin Zha's words and couldn't help but complain.
