EBE #861 - Should I give you a ride?
#861 - Should I give you a ride?
From this small detail, Jin Chanzi was even more certain of the Rolling Shutter General's motto: 'loyalty lies where the benefits are'.
Soon, the aroma of food filled the air above the Flowing Sand River.
The Rolling Shutter General and Jin Chanzi began to feast.
Seeing how cooperative Jin Chanzi was, the Rolling Shutter General even took out many of his own brewed fine wines from his space ring.
They drank for three days and three nights, neither of them using their spiritual power to dispel the alcohol...
Drunkenness surged into their hearts, and even Jin Chanzi and the Rolling Shutter General, who were usually at odds, began to talk grandly, fueled by the alcohol.
This led to the scene Qin Buyi saw when he reversed time.
Jin Chanzi, who was drinking and making merry, said to the Rolling Shutter General, "Rolling Shutter, when is your Great King coming?"
The Rolling Shutter General shook his head and said, "You've really asked the right person with that question. I don't know."
Jin Chanzi said, "If you don't know, just say you don't know. Why are you talking nonsense?"
The Rolling Shutter General said, "Then why did you have to ask!"
"The Great King is an existence whose head and tail are never seen. How would I know when he's coming."
Just then, the Rolling Shutter General and Jin Chanzi simultaneously sensed Qin Buyi's aura.
The Rolling Shutter General looked delighted and said, "Isn't he here!"
Jin Chanzi looked at Qin Buyi in the distance and smiled, "Greetings, Benefactor!"
The Rolling Shutter General was not as calm as Jin Chanzi.
His face was beaming like a chrysanthemum as he trotted to Qin Buyi and said, "Great King, you've finally arrived. Rolling Shutter has been missing you dearly!"
......
After some catching up, the Rolling Shutter General replaced all the leftovers with fresh ingredients.
Qin Buyi said to Jin Chanzi, "Jin Chanzi, why did they let you out this time with only the early stage of the Heavenly Immortal Realm cultivation base?"
Jin Chanzi looked at Qin Buyi meaningfully and said, "I have to thank Benefactor for all of this!"
"If it weren't for Benefactor's unreasonable attack last time, I'm afraid my cultivation would still be under the supervision of Uncle Zhunti, continuing to improve."
Qin Buyi understood the implication in Jin Chanzi's words and asked, "Then this time, what is the purpose of the two Saints of the Western Church sending you here?"
Jin Chanzi didn't hide anything and directly revealed the plans of the Receiving Saint and the Zhunti Saint.
"Teacher Receiving and Uncle Zhunti want me to come to this Flowing Sand River to expose Benefactor's true colors."
Qin Buyi said, "What true colors?"
Jin Chanzi said, "It's Benefactor's identity, the identity of the Lord of the Heavenly Court!"
"But I estimate that this matter is a bit difficult, and Benefactor won't admit it."
"So I might as well just say it. Whether you admit it or not is your own business."
Qin Buyi couldn't help but find it amusing and said, "You're just selling out the two Saints of the Western Church like that?"
Jin Chanzi spread his hands and said, "What choice do I have if I don't sell them out?"
"I've already died seven times in this broken place. This is the eighth time!"
"Teacher Receiving and Uncle Zhunti are purely using me as a guinea pig."
"Even guinea pigs aren't treated like this!"
Being treated as a test subject, it would be a lie to say that Jin Chanzi didn't have any resentment in his heart!
Anyone who has died so many times without getting any benefits would have resentment in their heart.
If you want the horse to run, you have to feed it grass!
The Receiving Saint and Zhunti Saint of the Western Church, in their treatment of Jin Chanzi.
It's completely like riding a donkey with a carrot dangling in front of it.
They only know how to draw big cakes, without giving any real benefits.
How could Jin Chanzi be willing to do such a thankless job!
Under such treatment, it's of course impossible to expect Jin Chanzi to rack his brains to complete the task!
Working passively is the best choice!
As for revealing the plans of Zhunti Saint and Receiving Saint, Jin Chanzi didn't feel the slightest guilt in his heart.
Hearing Jin Chanzi's words, Qin Buyi was amused and said, "Then what do you plan to do next?"
"You've exposed my identity like this, and I don't intend to admit it."
From any perspective, Qin Buyi would not openly admit this matter.
Especially admitting it as Haotian!
This kind of thing is tacitly understood by everyone and can only be placed in the dark.
Once it's brought into the open, this kind of thing can be big or small.
To put it big, it's a dispute between the Western Church and the Heavenly Court.
To put it small, it's a personal grudge between Haotian and Jin Chanzi.
Letting Haotian take the blame can happen in the future, but not in this obstruction of the Western Church's Journey to the West plan!
Otherwise, it's easy to cause big trouble, which will have a great impact on Qin Buyi's future execution of the Journey to the West series of tasks in the prehistoric world.
Haotian, who was healing in the Heavenly Court far away, suddenly sneezed.
Haotian murmured, "Who is thinking of me? Could it be that Fellow Daoist Qin?"
After calculating with his fingers, Haotian said, "Everything about this Fellow Daoist Qin cannot be calculated. It's really distressing."
"Forget it, since I've allowed him to continue walking in the prehistoric world with my identity, I won't think so much."
In the past thousand years, one-third of the hidden injuries on Haotian's body have been healed, and two-thirds have not been cured.
Regarding this, Haotian often sighed: "I really envy Fellow Daoist Qin, who can instantly heal the injuries on his body!"
"Envy! Very envious!"
Inside the Flowing Sand River.
Jin Chanzi said, "It doesn't matter whether Benefactor admits it or not. Anyway, I've delivered the message."
"My current cultivation is at the early stage of the Heavenly Immortal Realm, so I'm definitely not Benefactor's opponent. Whatever Benefactor's attitude is, I'll truthfully tell Teacher Receiving and Uncle Zhunti when I get back."
The three of them ate and chatted, recalling the first time they met.
That kind of chilling atmosphere, and now the three of them sitting together, eating and chatting...
Whether it was Qin Buyi, Jin Chanzi, or the Rolling Shutter General, they all felt a little unbelievable.
After eating and drinking to their fill, Jin Chanzi said, "Benefactor, Rolling Shutter, I'm going back to the Western Church."
Qin Buyi said, "So soon?"
Jin Chanzi said, "Not soon. Before Benefactor came, I had already stayed in the Flowing Sand River for three days and three nights."
"If I don't go back, Teacher Receiving and Uncle Zhunti will be anxious."
Qin Buyi said, "Do you want me to see you off?"
Hearing this, Jin Chanzi looked as if he had seen a ghost and hurriedly waved his hand, "No, no!"
"Thank you for Benefactor's kindness. I'll go back myself!"
The Rolling Shutter General listened in confusion and even advised, "Jin Chanzi, you should let my Great King see you off."
"It's rare for him to be polite once. You can't reject my Great King's kindness, can you?"
Jin Chanzi glared at the Rolling Shutter General and said, "You blockhead, what do you know!"
"When I said I was going back to the Western Church, I meant I was going back by self-destructing! Did you think I was going back alive?"
"If your Great King wants to see me off, he'll use a knife to chop me to death with one strike!"
"You didn't even understand what I said. What are you advising for!"
After being told this by Jin Chanzi, the Rolling Shutter General's mind instantly opened up!
He thought to himself, "No wonder Jin Chanzi is so scared! So that's how it is!"
Qin Buyi said with a smile, "Really don't need me to see you off?"
Jin Chanzi said, "Definitely not. I'll go back myself."
"Don't trouble Benefactor!"
"I'm off~!"
After speaking, Jin Chanzi activated the spiritual power in his body and began to self-destruct.
Qin Buyi and the Rolling Shutter General avoided Jin Chanzi's self-destruction range.
After a few breaths, they heard a loud noise.
"Boom~!"
Below Jin Chanzi's self-destruction, a large vacuum area appeared in the river water.
The place where the three of them had just eaten together was also turned into ashes in this self-destruction...
After more than a dozen breaths, the Flowing Sand River returned to normal.
The Rolling Shutter General said, "Jin Chanzi is a reliable person. He really self-destructs when something happens!"
Qin Buyi didn't say anything. Anyway, if Jin Chanzi didn't self-destruct, he would also send Jin Chanzi back to the Western Church!
Of course, it wouldn't be alive!
After all, the system task was pressing down on him. If Jin Chanzi went back alive in his eighth life, Qin Buyi would have to die!
Sacrificing himself or sacrificing Jin Chanzi, Qin Buyi decisively chose the latter!
As the saying goes, it's better to sacrifice a friend than to suffer oneself! That's the principle!
