I Borrowed a Brain from the Almighty

Chapter 270 Iron Spear Temple on a Rainy Night

"Three thousand meritorious deeds.

The person in charge of the cross-domain teleportation array was a foundation-building monk. This person was the first foundation-building monk Chen Luo met after he came to this place. This man was wearing a loose gray robe, his hair was messy, and his eyes were a little hazy. It looked like he had just woken up from his sleep.

"I've already paid my dues before."

Chen Luo frowned. He had previously paid all the merits for the lurking mission and the auxiliary mission of killing the Blackstone Ancestor to the White Robe Peak Master, but now he was so poor that he didn't have a single merit point.

"Segmented pricing is a rule set by the sect, and I can't help it." The disciple in charge of the cross-domain teleportation array yawned, with a businesslike look on his face.

I only said these words for the sake of Chen Luo, a great cultivator of the Perfection Realm. If another Qi Refining Realm cultivator came over, he wouldn't even be able to get through the gate.

Any large sect has complete rules and regulations.

This is especially true for the Qionghua sect.

It's not that these sects don't care about the world, but that they are so big that they must use these things to regulate the sect. When there are few people and the power is small, you can rely on family ties and friendships to maintain relationships. When it reaches a certain level, you must rely on systems to regulate it. Just like rebelling against thieves and building a country, when rebelling, they call themselves brothers and act based on their emotions. After the rebellion was successful, they were immediately divided into three, six, and nine grades, with military power assigned to them, and the country governed according to the law.

"Senior brother, if you have no meritorious deeds, you can choose to do tasks here first. There are many tasks in our Taisu Peak stronghold, and we need masters like senior brother."

The disciple took a task list from the side.

Earning merit by completing tasks is a process that all sect disciples must go through, and it is also the foundation of the sect system.

Chen Luo glanced at it and saw that there were many tasks above, most of which were in the Qi Refining Realm. There were also a few tasks in the Foundation Establishment Realm, but they were not easy to complete. There are secret realm explorations, hunting down powerful enemies, alchemy, weapon refining, spiritual material cultivation, etc.

The fastest task takes half a year and is very dangerous. Security missions have long time limits, generally three to five years.

"Is there any other way?"

"Then you can only fly by yourself. I have a map here that I can give to my senior brother for free." The disciple in charge of the teleportation array took out a jade slip and gave it to Chen Luo.

It's not a precious thing. Content that can be copied infinitely is best used as a favor.

"Thanks."

Chen Luo took the jade slip, read the contents and turned around to leave the hall.

First check to see if there are any valuable brains nearby.

It is impossible to do the task without doing the task.

Coming to Tiannan Territory, for Chen Luo, his goal has been achieved. It would be best if the Qionghua Sect could go, but it wouldn't hurt if they couldn't go. From the beginning, he never thought about staying in the qualifications within the rules set by the other party. The more mature the power, the more difficult it is to endure the qualifications.

He didn't even do a few tasks in Shenhu Xianmen back then, so how could he lose his principles here.

After staying at the stronghold for half a month, Chen Luo used this half month to learn some common sense about Tiannan Territory.

Cultivation techniques are not valuable in Tiannan Territory, what is valuable are resources. What's more, there is no cemetery here that he cares about, and the corpse of the Danjie monk is just as valuable here. There is an ancestral tomb within the Qionghua Sect. With his current strength, it is basically impossible to go in and dig the grave.

After figuring out the differences in these details, Chen Luo left the Qionghua faction's stronghold that day and chose the second cheaper route. He could also do some business with casual cultivators on the way, and maybe pick up some leaks. After all, he picked them up. Things are different from others.

Heavy rain, lightning and thunder.

A group of people wearing raincoats were rushing in the rain. More than twenty people were pushing the carriage behind them. The strong man in front was holding the reins to prevent the horses from being frightened.

The wooden wheels made a "crunching" sound as they traveled. The heavy wooden wheels pressed across the path, bringing up turbid muddy water and leaving a deep ravine. The other people's feet were all stuck in the mud, and the mud and water flooded their ankles, making every step difficult.

"Brothers, work harder! You can't stop here."

The leading escort stretched out his hand to wipe the rain off his face and encouraged the brother behind him.

"After ten miles of slope, I'll treat all the brothers to a drink!"

Several bodyguards at the back pushed the carriage with all their strength, while a dozen people in front pulled out ropes and ran to the front to pull.

"Push hard! One or two"

"What's in this box? Why is it so heavy!"

"It's a damn rainy day."

The horses struggled to move forward through the mud, making a "hugging" sound from their mouths, white air spurting out from their nostrils, and their four legs were stuck deep in the mud.

Seeing this, the chief escort turned over and dismounted, and a layer of blood energy circulated. The muscles in his hands bulged, and he grabbed the wheel that was stuck in the mud with one hand. He shouted loudly. ,

"rise!"

The carriage that more than twenty people could not push was actually pulled up by him alone.

"Walk!"

After passing this hurdle, the chief escort quickly got on his horse, and everyone did not dare to delay, and continued to move forward despite the heavy rain.

After walking for a while, the rain became lighter, but it still didn't stop.

It started to fog in the mountains.

Everyone hurried on without anyone speaking.

"Boss Shen, something is wrong."

After walking for a while, the skinny Taoist following the car suddenly spoke.

"There is evil spirit!"

Hearing this, everyone's expressions changed.

They hurried on in the rain in order to avoid the monster on the ten-mile slope. Unexpectedly, they hurried slowly and ran into it.

"Can you sense the direction?"

Chief Shen asked in a deep voice.

This skinny Taoist was a cultivator hired by the escort agency at a huge price, so what he said was definitely true.

"The rain is full of monsters, and in my perception, there are dangers everywhere. I suggest you find a safe place to hide first, and wait until the rain stops before leaving. This way you can avoid the rain and the big monster."

Take people's money and eliminate disasters for them.

The skinny Taoist is very dedicated and what he says is very pertinent.

"There is an Iron Spear Temple in front. We can go there to take shelter from the rain."

An older escort in the team said that he had walked this road countless times, so he naturally remembered the resting point along the way.

"Then go to the Iron Spear Temple!"

As the backbone of the team, at this time, we must not be chaotic.

Escort Shen pulled up his horse and took the lead towards the Iron Spear Temple, and everyone behind him hurriedly pulled into the escort carriage and followed closely behind.

After drinking tea, everyone saw a building in the rain. On a dark rainy night, this Iron Gun Temple is like a monster crouching in the rain. There is no light, giving people a chilling feeling.

"Taoist Priest, is there any evil spirit over there?"

"I can't sense it. Now the mountains and plains are full of demonic energy. It's the same everywhere."

The dry old Taoist couldn't tell the difference clearly, and his uneasiness became more and more serious.

It's just that when things come to a close, there's no point in being afraid.

The group soon arrived at the entrance of the Iron Spear Temple, an old building similar to a mountain temple. It has green tiles and white walls, and a square door on the front. The door with peeling paint creaked under the rain and wind.

The rain falls on the roof and drips along the tiles, forming a row of rain curtains.

"Everyone, be careful."

Shen Biaotou drew his weapon, took two steps forward and pushed towards the half-open door.

Bang!

This seemingly solid door fell down as soon as I touched it with my hand. The door panel hit the rain, causing large splashes of water. Before Shen Biaotou's feet touched the ground inside, a gust of cold wind suddenly blew out from inside, and a black swarm of bats flew out of the Iron Spear Temple.

"Disperse!"

The withered priest accompanying the escort agency immediately raised his hand, and a layer of white light emitted from the tips of his two fingers to drive away the bats.

Several experts from the Escort Bureau quickly retreated, and everyone drew their sabers to form a circular defense. Others behind them also stood in position to protect the escort objects.

"Just a regular bat."

Chief Shen put away his weapon and stepped on the collapsed door panel and walked in.

This kind of rainy night is really not suitable for traveling. Now that the monster can't be found, we can only find a place to hide from the rain and wait until it's safe to find a way out.

A group of people walked into the Iron Spear Temple. Two escorts were left under the eaves at the entrance to look after the escort carriages.

The Iron Gun Temple was larger than expected. When a few people came in, they found a statue enshrined inside. It was a small god wearing armor and holding an iron gun. None of the people were believers and could not recognize who the little god they worshiped was.

"who?!"

Before they could observe further, the skinny Taoist priest suddenly turned his head and looked at the other side of the Iron Spear Temple.

Several escorts quickly took out the fire sticks wrapped in oilcloth and lit them.

As soon as the light appeared, it instantly illuminated the scene inside the Iron Spear Temple. Under the light of the fire, everyone found a person sitting in the corner of the Iron Spear Temple. This man was wearing a green robe, with his legs crossed and his eyes closed. Like a sculpture, the light from the torch reflected clear edges on his face. If it hadn't been for the words of the skinny Taoist priest, no one would have noticed that there was another person here.

"My friend, it's difficult to walk in the rain. I'll stay here for one night. If you're disturbed, I'd like to thank you."

"Please."

The man in green clothes opened his eyes, glanced at a few people strangely, then closed his eyes and ignored them.

Seeing the man in green speaking human words, everyone felt relieved.

The biggest fear when traveling at night is encountering monsters. You can't mess with that kind of thing, as it will kill someone if you touch it. It's the thing that escorts fear the most.

"Be careful, this guy is weird."

The skinny Taoist priest lowered his voice and warned.

Bouncer Shen nodded. They are all veteran escorts, so they naturally know the rules when going out. The group chose a place far away from the people in Tsing Yi and started to light a fire to ward off the cold. After traveling for such a long time in the rain, their clothes were already soaked through, and some people took out the breaded dry food in their clothes and ate them.

The group of people worked together and quickly lit up the fire. Under the light of the fire, the cold air was instantly dissipated. Several escorts took off their outer clothes and put them aside to bake. Two others took out an iron basin and boiled water on the fire.

"Taoist Priest, can you still sense the evil spirit now?"

Biaotou Shen and the dry old man also sat on the side and took off their coats.

"It's still there, it hasn't gone away, I doubt it."

"ah!!"

Before the two of them finished speaking, they heard two screams coming from outside the house.

It's the brother of the guard outside! (End of chapter)
