"I say, Xiaoshuimen, can you return a little to Teacher first?”Zi Lai Ye and Bo Feng Shui Sect were walking on the streets of a small city.
"No, teacher, your financial management ability is too poor. Before you purchase the necessary supplies, your wallet will be under my care.”Shui Men said firmly, leaving no room for negotiation.
"How…how could that be? That's the necessary expenses for gathering intelligence. You know, when I came out, I was still tasked with collecting intelligence from various countries, right?”Zi Lai also had a bitter look on his face as he attempted to take back his property from his disciple.
"Have you ever seen anyone go to a place where women drink and gather information among women? Also, remove the word 'small'!”
"Small, uh…Watergate. Actually, it's the best place to gather information. There are all kinds of people there. As long as your teacher uses the handsome man trap, I can get all kinds of information.”
"Even so, we'll have to wait until we've bought the daily necessities." Unless you want to live a savage life in the wild.”
Seeing that she couldn't persuade him, she could only obediently follow behind the water gate.
Since they were mainly helping the Water Gate with their cultivation, they usually traveled in the wilderness, except for the necessary towns.
Although his assets had been confiscated and he temporarily lost his freedom to use them. However, Zilai did not feel unhappy. Instead, he was very happy. He felt that being controlled by his disciple was also a kind of happiness. He was already over 30 years old, and he no longer had any blood relatives around him. He had yet to get a girlfriend, so he had never found a girlfriend. He had always lived alone, but now that he had a disciple who cared about his daily life, he felt very happy.
Zilai and Shuimen began to purchase the necessary items for cultivation and life, then sealed them in storage scrolls.
After the purchase, Zilai Ye finally got his wallet back. Zilai Ye's strength was shocking, and his status in Muye was not low. His ability to accumulate money was not weak. Advanced ninjas had a very high earning ability, but their spending power was also unusually high. The Kunai, Shuriken, Detonation Talismans, and various other ninja tools that they used in battle all cost money. For ninjas, it was very important to ensure that their weapons were in good condition. Therefore, the ninjas did not necessarily have a lot of savings, and it was the same for their own lives.
In the inn, Shuimen was counting his luggage while Zilai was writing at the table.
"Teacher Lai Ye, everything is ready. We can set off tomorrow.”
" Oh," Zi Lai also responded, then stopped writing and said,""Next, we'll be preparing to return to the village. However, we'll have to take a different route this time. Let's go to the Water Country first.”
"Water Country?"
"Yeah, I heard that the Clearwater Town of the Water Country is rich in beauties.”At this point, Zilai also had a lewd smile on his face.
A large drop of cold sweat appeared on Water Gate's forehead. It seemed that this guy was after the beauty.
He ignored the expression on the teacher's face. "Then we'll leave tomorrow morning?"”
Zi Lai also thought about it and shook his head."Let's wait a few more days. It's been quite chaotic here these few days. Perhaps something interesting will happen.”
"Something interesting?"
"Heh. Water Gate, do you know what's special about this White Jade Town?”Zilai asked suddenly.
"Special traits? I heard that the mountains around this town are rich in all kinds of precious jade, so most of the residents in this town mine jade, process it, and sell it to other places for a living.”Watergate slowly revealed all the information he knew.
"Yes, but you have to know that those jade stones are not necessarily just decorations. Some precious jade stones contain special power. For example, the Blood Essence Jade contains the power to heal injuries. As long as you wear the Blood Essence Jade, your injuries will be healed continuously, just like having a Medical Ninja to treat you.”Zilai also explained to Water Gate, then picked up the teacup and took a sip of water.
"So powerful! Could it be that there was a Blood Essence Jade lode in White Jade Town? How much did it cost to buy such a good thing?”Shui Men asked.
"Pfft ~" Zilai also spat out a mouthful of water and knocked on Shuimen's head."Mine! To be able to find a piece of Blood Essence Jade in a top-notch jade mine was already a blessing from their ancestors. This kind of thing was priceless and could not be bought even with money.”
"Then why are we staying here? Did you find the Blood Essence Jade?”
Zi Lai Ye shook his head mysteriously and said,""It's not the Blood Essence Jade. It was another gemstone that was no less valuable than the Blood Essence Jade.”
"What gem is it? Something that could move Teacher's heart definitely wasn't an ordinary item, right? By the way, do you want to buy all the money you have on you?”
Zilai also chuckled and said," My information shows that there will be an auction tomorrow at midnight in White Jade Town. The Illusionary Spirit Jade will appear at the auction. At that time, representatives from various forces will come to participate in the auction. Even our Muye will have people come.”
" No way," Shui Men said in surprise." This is the territory of the Earth Country. Would the villagers come here for a piece of jade?"”
" Of course," said Zilai." This kind of treasure with special power is very useful to ninjas. For example, the Illusionary Spirit Jade. As long as you wear it, you will be immune to most illusions. It is the nemesis of illusion-type ninjas. It also has the effect of nourishing the soul and strengthening spiritual power." It was precisely because of the great effect it had on ninjas that the auctioneer would not sell it directly to his own country. Instead, he would release the news to various countries to attract more buyers and use this to raise the price to earn more profits. For example, almost all the countries with ninjas had sent people this time, including some private forces and wandering ninjas.”
"So we're going to meet up with Muye's men tomorrow?" Shui Men frowned. To be able to attract so many people, it would probably be very difficult to bring the Illusionary Spirit Jade away safely even if he bought it.”
" It's better for us to hide in the dark." Zi Lai also shook his head." But I'll secretly inform the people in our village so that we can take care of each other." However, there would still be a chaotic battle tomorrow. No matter which side won the jade, there would be many people who would want to snatch it. Twelve years ago, there was a similar scene. For a piece of Blood Essence Jade the size of a fist, some forces even sent out Shadow Grade experts. That battle was truly chaotic. In the end, this piece of Blood Essence Jade fell into Yan Yin's hands.”
"For a piece of jade, even a Shadow Grade powerhouse…this is crazy.”Shui Men muttered.
" There's no other way," said Zi Lai with a smile." Who asked such a treasure to be so attractive? At the same time, it's also a combat resource." Medical Ninjas were always busy on the battlefield, but a Blood Essence Jade could replace a high-level Medical Ninja without any rest. A fist-sized piece could replace 20 high-level Medical Ninjas with just a split. It was naturally better to have such a good thing in his hands.”
Shuimen suddenly thought of something and asked,""Teacher Zirai, are we going to shoot tomorrow too?”
Zi Lai also glanced at the Feng Shui Sect and understood what he was thinking. He said,"We won't be the first to act. The smartest thing to do is to sit back and reap the benefits.”
"Since it's for the sake of the village, then there's nothing we can do, even if it's an improper method."”
" People will always do things that they can't help themselves with in order to survive. It's very common for ninjas to take back their treasures. This time, it's for the sake of the village. Remember, we are not saints.”
"I understand. I'm not a child anymore.”
Zilai also fell silent. Perhaps he did not want to see the originally pure and flawless child tainted, but that was impossible. From the day he first killed someone with Kunai, Watergate had already grown. Although he killed a heinous robber, it would still change the mentality of Watergate.
When a person was born, their soul was like a piece of white paper. As they grew older, different colors would be added to this piece of paper. However, as long as the color that symbolized light and kindness became the main color, it was enough. No one was perfect. Everyone would make mistakes and bear the sins.
Zi Lai also looked at the Feng Shui Gate, who was reading a scroll, and couldn't help but smile. Zi Lai also felt that he was a successful teacher who had successfully led the Wave Feng Shui Sect on the right path.
Perhaps this was enough…
