Hang Second Middle School, Lake Pavilion.
It was a landmark building that had been standing in Hang Er High School since the school was founded. It was an ancient style building with a beautiful appearance, so young couples often came here for dates.
Fang Wen sat on a chair in the pavilion at the center of the lake, looking at the koi swimming in the lake. He suddenly asked,
"What is your purpose?"
He had only met Zhou Chong once. Even though Zhou Chong had helped him dispose of the mountain ghost's corpse, he had paid the market price for it.
The two of them were only in a trading relationship, but the other party actually took the initiative to stand up for him and even helped him teach the fellow who provoked him a lesson.
He was too enthusiastic.
There must be a problem.
As for the other party, it might have just been a casual remark…
Fang Wen only chuckled at this. As a wily old fox who was able to earn a stipend in the Department of Mysteries without being fired, how could he have such a simple-minded personality?
At this moment, Zhou Chong also used his hand to block the wind. He lit a cigarette and shook his head.
"I thought you would like the feeling of showing off your divinity in front of others.”
"Will you be angry because of the ant's provocation?”
Although he did feel quite good, the first rule of negotiation was not to reveal his thoughts. That way, the other party would not be able to guess his thoughts and thus seize the initiative.
"Didn't I get angry just now?" Zhou Chong said with a smile.”
Fang Wen looked at him with a half-smile." Are you sure?”
The two of them looked at each other for a long time. In the end, Zhou Chong raised his hands and said helplessly,
"As expected, you saw through me. I just wanted to tease that kid. Who knew that he wouldn't be able to resist being scared? Isn't it also to train his courage in advance? It's better than dying in the wild.”
Zhou Chong blew out a smoke ring and continued,"
"However, you're much calmer than your classmates. I'm starting to wonder if you're a young man. You're so smart that it makes my back feel cold.
A person like you, who is calm and collected, and not lacking in skills, can rise up even if your talent is poor. Not to mention that you have awakened the Life Divine Body now. Your future is really smooth.”
Fang Wen was not very happy when he heard the other party's flattery. He said indifferently,
"In other words, what you want is my divine life body. What do you want me to do?”
As for why he said that, it was because Fangwen used a simple elimination method.
After all, he was just an ordinary orphan, and there was nothing special about him before he awakened the Life God Body.
As for his combat strength, even if he had grasped the Life Concept Rebirth Blade, he could only contend against ordinary Earth Soul Stage cultivators.
And Zhou Chong himself was also an Earth Soul, so there was no need for him to help him, not to mention that he had taken the initiative to help him deal with the Mountain Ghost corpse.
Although the reason was that he did not have money, in fact, Zhou Chong could easily earn money by hunting some demons.
The only possibility left was that he saw his potential and wanted to invest in him, or that the Life Divine Body he had publicized had some special use.
Since that was the case, Fangwen chose to use the cold reading method and directly stated the latter possibility in a certain tone, forming a psychological pressure.
It didn't matter even if he guessed wrong. He could still hear the other party's rebuttal and get the real answer.
This cold reading method could not only be used in negotiations, but also in relationships and so on. It could allow people to quickly chase after girls.
When Zhou Chong heard this, he smoked silently for a while, then stubbed out the cigarette butt and threw it into the water. He said with some admiration,
"Your intelligence…is truly terrifying. Although it's easy to talk to a smart person like you, I feel like I've been seen through every time.”
Initially, he wanted to get closer to Fang Wen and make a request after becoming friends. At that time, it would be difficult for Fang Wen to reject him.
However, he did not expect that although Fang Wen was young, he was extremely experienced and did not give him a chance at all.
Fang Wen did not answer. He just quietly waited for the follow-up.
Zhou Chong did not continue to argue and said directly,
"In fact, I have indeed set my eyes on your Life Divine Body, but don't misunderstand. I don't have any ill intentions. I just want to save my companions.”
"Your companion? Zhan Ya and Ma Zhe?" Fangwen was a little puzzled.
Zhou Chong shook his head and explained,"
" It's even earlier. My earliest companions were all cursed by a special curse and fell into a state of the living dead. I've checked many ancient books. It seems that only the divine body of life can save them.”
"Curse…"
Fangwen pondered for a moment and asked,"
"Why don't you look for the Department of Specialties? There should be many experts in the Department of Specialties. Although there are few divine life bodies, there should be some, right?”
Zhou Chong smiled bitterly.
"You think too lightly of yourself. Life is one of the top-notch laws. There is indeed a king among the human kings who is related to the laws of life.
Legend had it that " He " also had a Divine Body of Life, and through the additional several thousand years of lifespan brought by his Divine Body," He " was known to have the most mediocre aptitude of his generation. After suffering to the death of all the geniuses of his generation," He " became a Conferred King.
However, Kings were so high and mighty that I didn't even have the right to meet them. The Department of Mysteries wouldn't ask a Conferred King for my sake, let alone make a request.
Moreover, His Highness was the only king who had not built a city. He had no fixed residence, and no one knew his location.”
"Could it be that there isn't a single living divine body?”
Fangwen was a little shocked. He had casually made up a divine body, and it was actually out of print. It was basically impossible for him to return. His luck was too good.
Moreover, he should have the Immortal Divine Phoenix Body. In a sense, it was much more advanced than the Life Divine Body.
In other words, there hadn't been a single Divine Body of Life in all these years. It showed how rare Divine Bodies of Life were.
Seeing Zhou Chong nod his head, Fang Wen was a little speechless. However, although the other party was very sincere, Fang Wen was not a child who believed everything he said. On the contrary, he was a little suspicious of Zhou Chong.
It was just that Fang Wen did not have mind-reading skills, so he could not be sure what Zhou Chong was really thinking.
However, his interest was piqued. He asked curiously,"
"In that case, what price are you willing to pay? I remember that you don't have any money, and you always want to get subsidies. Last time, I heard you say that you don't even have money for drinks.”
After saying that, Fang Wen looked at Zhou Chong suspiciously, wondering if the other party could pay him.
Zhou Chong's companions were his friends, but they were not Fang Wen's friends. Thus, Fang Wen had no obligation to save them.
As a materialistic person, the rule that Fang Wen recognized the most was equivalent exchange.
As long as Zhou Chong could take out something that moved him, he did not mind trying to save his friends.
Although Zhou Chong felt a little awkward, he heaved a sigh of relief. What he was most afraid of was not Fang Wen making a request, but that Fang Wen would not give him a chance at all.
So he thought for a moment and said,
"Even though I don't have much savings, I've been in the Department of Mysteries for so many years, and I've accumulated so many merit points. I can exchange them for a treasure that's useful even to Celestial Phenomenon Ascendants. It's worth at least 30 million utility points.
Other than that, I've checked the corpses of the Mountain Ghosts. Other than the leader of the Mountain Ghosts who was nailed to death by a spear, the rest of the Mountain Ghosts were killed with a knife. In other words, you're more inclined to use weapons.
There's a forging master who owes me a favor. He can help you forge a mystic weapon before the college entrance examination. You'll pay for the materials yourself.
That master has stopped forging for others a long time ago. If we put this opportunity on the black market, it will be worth at least 400 to 500 million yuan. What do you think?”
A Celestial Phenomenon Grade treasure and a Mystic Grade weapon custom-made by a Master Forger.
One had to know that weapons were divided into five grades: God, Heaven, Earth, Black, and Yellow. In reality, most people's weapons did not even have a grade.
Mystic grade weapons were already considered extremely precious weapons. Even buying the finished product would cost a few hundred million, let alone custom-made ones.
To be honest, Fangwen was already a little tempted.
Although Flame Consolidated Weapons were good, their toughness was too low. Moreover, they could not withstand the power of Life Intent for a long time and would soon collapse.
If he could get a special weapon that could bear the power of Nirvana Flames and Life Intent Domain, his combat strength would increase by a large margin.
However, this Zhou Chong was actually able to contact a Forge Master and even make the other party owe him a favor. It seemed that his background was not simple.
Thinking of this, Fangwen asked,"
"But I can't guarantee that I can save them. After all, I don't know much, so don't get your hopes up.”
Zhou Chong heaved a sigh of relief. After all, this was all he could offer. If the other party was still not satisfied, there was nothing he could do.
He nodded and said,"
"No problem. Even if you fail, I'll give you the reward.”
Fangwen nodded slightly and asked,"
"Then where are your companions? The hospital?"
"Neither…"
However, Zhou Chong's expression was a little solemn. He shook his head and looked around to make sure that there was no one around. Then, he said in a deep voice,
"Ancient King Ruins!"
