The Otherworldly God

Chapter 178

Le Zheng Qiming felt very distressed when he saw his mother's miserable appearance and pale face. He was also angry at Le Zheng for treating them like this and was dissatisfied with the injustice of the world.

But he was just an ant in the world. Anger alone could not change anything. Only by becoming an important person could he change everything. For the first time, the idea of ​​becoming famous became extremely strong.

He originally wanted to ask Qingguo for help to heal his mother so that she could recover as soon as possible and suffer less.

Unexpectedly, when I returned to Fangyuan, I first met Qin Chu unexpectedly, and then was inexplicably involved in Heilin's bounty mission.

He was very reluctant at first, because it was clearly a matter of suicide, and he didn't dare to talk about death easily with his mother around.

He wanted to vent his anger on Le Zheng Shui Ling, but he knew it was not just her fault. If anyone was to blame, they should blame the people who were keeping an eye on them.

Life and reputation are almost the same to a Taoist, especially to oppressed little people like them.

This time, his reputation was lost, and he didn't think there was any chance of earning it back. Even if An Ruosu or Mu Xin came forward, or even if the old man were still alive, it would be impossible.

So, for a moment he thought, why not give it a try, but soon he felt it was ridiculous, this was a 100% suicide, so he might as well live like an ant, it didn't matter if he was a Taoist or something, he thought.

Le Zheng Shuiling was very upset because he had been tricked into accepting this task. He had originally thought that he could take on the task alone, and at worst he could give up being a Taoist priest.

However, An Ruosu's words made her understand that even if she took the responsibility alone, it would not stop those people from throwing dirty water on them. Instead, more and more dirty water might be directed towards Le Zheng Qiming and Le Zheng Yuhua.

After seeing that Le Zheng Yuhua and Le Zheng were equally famous, their non-blame and their comfort were like sharp swords, and Le Zheng Shuiling wished he could die to atone for his sins.

As she watched Le Zheng Yuhua and Mu Xin talking incomprehensible words that sounded like they were arguing, Le Zheng Shuiling wanted to yell at them to stop several times, but their conversation seemed to not allow a third person to interrupt.

The two of them just stood by and watched them going back and forth. For a moment, they both felt that they should go. It was not just the feeling of having nothing to lose or no other way out, but an opportunity, a great opportunity to change the current situation of the three of them.

“I give up/I’m going.”

The two people said this in unison, looked at each other, and seemed to see the same reasons and thoughts as themselves, and couldn't help laughing.

Le Zheng Yuhua looked at them, thinking that they believed in him and were ready to gamble their lives. The pressure was too great, and Le Zheng Yuhua could not afford the gamble.

"No, we're not going."

"Brother Yuhua, to be honest, I was very scared at first. I took the wrong mission and forced us into a desperate situation. But for some reason, I felt that this might be an opportunity for us to become different. I'm not looking for excuses to cover up my mistakes. I just believe that we can do it."

"That's right. If we continue like this, it might be like this in ten years. What's more, we're just going to take a stroll in the Black Forest. Even if we go in for a cup of tea, we can come out. It's our win, right? I think it can be done."

"A cup of tea?"

Yes, Le Zheng Yuhua realized that it would be easy to complete the task and get part of the reward, and this part of the reward was also very good.

Besides, hadn't he escaped from the Black Forest safely before? If Mu Xin was willing to help, escaping from this predicament would not be a problem at all. On the contrary, this trap was an opportunity.

He looked at Mu Xin, as if she was proud of herself, proud of her success in persuading him to quit.

Le Zheng Yuhua was unwilling to give up, and seeing the expectant looks from the two of them, he made a decision.

"Let's go."

"Where's Master Zhi?"

"I won't stop him from going. If he doesn't go, we'll go anyway. You, don't want to regret it, do you?"

Mu Xin looked at him with a determined look and raised the corner of her mouth to smile.

"No regrets. Let's get started, Qinchu. Let us all hear the information you bring."

When Le Zheng Yuhua heard this, he immediately knew that he had been tricked and felt a little unhappy.

Yun Xiu transformed a chair and a table for Mu Xin, with a cup of tea on it. Mu Xin turned around and sat down.

Putting her hands on the handles, Yun Xiu served her beside her, but she was no longer the weak and gentle Mu Xin. Instead, she exuded a domineering aura.

"Then I will tell you what I know about this mission."

Qin Chu stood up and took two steps, glancing at Mu Xin and Yun Xiu in between. She had to make sure how far she could go in front of them. From Yun Xiu's eyes, Qin Chu had already gotten the information she wanted, so she smiled and tried to ease the atmosphere.

“I think everyone is very clear about Heilin’s situation. This bounty on Heilin was issued many years ago. I’m not sure how long it has been there, but it’s been around for quite a while.

When this bounty mission was released, it was very popular. However, no matter how many people went, no one returned. No one knew whether they were alive or dead.

Gradually, fewer and fewer people were willing to take on this mission, but every now and then there were Taoists missing due to this mission, so the Taoist Alliance sealed the bounty and waited for a more certain opportunity.

Is this a good time? It's no use. Anyway, the mission has been restarted. There's something strange about it."

"Strange place?"

Le Zheng Shuiling looked at it again, but didn't find anything strange.

"Your view is useless. First, the caravan mentioned in this mission is not a caravan, but a team of seven people sent by the Gongsun family, including four mid-level Taoists, two high-level Taoists, and one great Taoist. This configuration is already very good. The second strange thing is that this mission actually has the meaning of assignment, and the person assigned is exactly Le Zheng."

Le Zheng Qi Ming frowned and said, "That is to say, someone from our Le Zheng must go."

"You know the rules here better than I do."

"How can you do this?"

"The Black Forest is closest to us. If the Mu Mansion is not disbanded... I'm sorry, so our Le Zheng will bear the brunt of it."

"Maybe it's because of the famous gentleman."

"But I don't quite understand why the Gongsun family would go to the Black Forest?"

"I don't understand it either. Gongsun Shu has been eyeing Heilin since he was young, so I'm not surprised that he went there, but Gongsun Zhan is not a man who seeks fame and fortune, or is brave but not wise. If he went alone, I could understand it, but he brought two disciples with him, as well as a young talent, his nephew Gongsun Minglou. It's hard for me to think of any reason for him to go there."

"Call Yinli and Leying over."

"Yes."

Yun Xiu cast a spell, and two people appeared in front of everyone. Yin Li was holding a kitchen knife and half-cut celery in her hand, and Le Ying was holding the green vegetables that she was about to put into the basin for washing. When she looked up, she found that something had changed around her, and she reacted when she saw them.

"Miss, is there anything wrong?"

Yunxiu smiled and went over to take the vegetables away for her. Yinli had already put down the kitchen knife and celery in her hands and untied her apron.

"I want to hear Yinli's opinion on the most likely reason why Gongsun Zhan would take his apprentice and nephew to the Black Forest."
