Su Chen blocked Pei Zhen's way and asked him directly with a serious expression.
"Senior brother, are you still in contact with that witch?"
If it were anyone else, Su Chen wouldn't bother to care at all.
But Pei Zhen has always taken good care of him.
Su Chen didn't want to see him make mistakes and go astray.
Of course, Su Chen didn't want to decide the life path for the other party.
Just because that witch is so scheming, her words are simply not trustworthy!
If you believe in the witch, you are not as good as the pie painted by Elder Di!
Hear Su Chen's question.
Pei Zhen's face also looked a little ugly.
"How could it be? Don't think too much about it.
I still have to go on patrol, don't stop me. "
After Pei Zhen finished speaking, he walked away directly.
Seeing this happen.
Su Chen couldn't persuade him anymore.
Could it be that Pei Zhen knew it was a trap but still couldn't help but get closer?
What kind of psychology is this?
Su Chen shook his head helplessly and came to the demon girl's cell on the second floor.
Shang Lingshan lowered her eyebrows when she saw him.
He looked like he didn't want to communicate with him.
There was no reaction when he saw the witch.
Su Chen couldn't help but secretly wonder: "Could it be that I was wrong?"
Looking away from the witch, Su Chen walked away without saying a word.
And just after Su Chen left.
The demon girl slowly raised her head, with a playful smile on her face.
…
The next two days.
Su Chen paid special attention to Pei Zhen's behavior.
It was discovered that when he was patrolling on the second floor, he did not stop too much in front of the witch's cell, nor did he have any contact with the witch.
Only then did he let down his guard a little.
"Maybe I'm just overthinking it."
Not long after that.
News came from the sect.
Elder Di led the team to discover a treasure cave.
Although the process is somewhat difficult.
It took them all their strength to break through the protective circle and enter it.
Some of them were injured by cave agencies.
But fortunately, the end result is satisfying.
Great harvest!
And Elder Di has not forgotten his previous promise.
Come to the Demon Locking Tower in person to fulfill your promise.
“This time the sect was able to find the secret treasure, and you have done a lot of credit.
If you have any requests, just ask.
Even if you are promoted to a disciple in white, you will enjoy the treatment of a disciple in blue.
There is no problem. "
have to say.
What Elder Di said was quite reasonable.
He directly pointed out that the biggest benefit he could give Su Chen was to make Su Chen a disciple in white and then enjoy the treatment of a disciple in blue.
If this kind of benefit was given to Pei Zhen, he would definitely be crazy about it!
But Su Chen was not moved at all.
He didn't even think about going out.
Again.
Disciples in white enjoy the treatment of disciples in blue, although it sounds very nice.
But as soon as he accepted it, the problem began.
He will be isolated by other white-clothed disciples because of special treatment.
Standing out from the crowd, if not targeting you, who is targeting you?
And the disciples in blue camp will not look down on him.
Because they would feel that Su Chen had gotten something that should not have belonged to him.
So, this is a nice looking one.
In fact, it’s a really crappy reward.
He believed that Elder Di didn't mean to trick him.
I just simply didn’t think about it that much.
In fact, this is also true.
Elder Di could not make an exception and directly promote Su Chen to be a disciple in blue because the gap was too big.
But just for promoting Su Chen to be a disciple in white, this reward seemed a bit inadequate.
That's why I added the line "Enjoy the treatment of disciples in blue".
"I want to give up my status as a disciple in white to Senior Brother Pei Zhen."
Su Chen made this request without any hesitation.
As soon as these words came out, Elder Di was slightly stunned.
He didn't expect that Su Chen would hand over such a good opportunity to others!
"This Pei Zhen you are talking about..."
Elder Di looked troubled, as if he didn't know who Pei Zhen was.
Su Chen reminded him that it was the one who asked questions at the door before.
"He has been guarding the Demon Locking Tower for ten years. If he wants to go out, he should go out first."
Elder Di suddenly said: "Oh, it turns out it's him."
actually.
Elder Di only remembered Pei Zhen's appearance, but not his name.
But these words fell on the ears of Pei Zhen, who was secretly eavesdropping.
That's not the case at all.
"It turns out that you really lied to me for ten years!
A whole ten years!
How stupid I am, really! "
Pei Zhen closed his eyes, clenched his fists, and his nails almost dug into his flesh!
these ten years.
It was Elder Di's words that supported him through this.
He thought that his positive performance could really be seen!
He thought Elder Di really remembered him!
He also fantasized about a day when he would become famous countless times.
On that day, Elder Di personally stood in front of him and announced that he would be promoted to a disciple in white.
but.
Right now.
His dream was completely shattered!
He became a disciple in white and had to rely on Su Chen's charity!
what is this?
At this moment, Pei Zhen's mentality completely collapsed!
"I can try to help you with your request, but there can only be one disciple in white. Have you thought about it clearly?"
Elder Di said seriously.
Su Chen also answered seriously: "I don't have to accept the spot as a disciple in white, but can I make any other requests?"
He will never forget his true purpose.
"Can."
Elder Di nodded without hesitation.
Su Chen's way of giving up his place as a disciple in white won Elder Di's heart and made him feel that this disciple had a great structure!
If you just thought Su Chen had a flexible mind before, it would be interesting.
Now, Elder Di has pure appreciation for him.
For those disciples who appreciate him, he doesn't mind giving as many rewards as he can.
"I want permission to lock the demon tower above the fifth floor."
As soon as Su Chen said this request.
Elder Di frowned immediately.
He never expected that Su Chen would ask for permission from the top of the Locked Demon Tower instead of asking for the actual reward!
"On the fifth floor of the Demon Locking Tower, the most ferocious demons are imprisoned. They are extremely dangerous. What are you going to do above?"
Elder Di couldn't help but feel suspicious.
Su Chen immediately replied without any hesitation: "Those demons at the top may have bigger secrets. I want to see if I can pry these secrets out of their mouths!"
"No, you take it too much for granted."
Hearing this, Elder Di looked slightly serious, "That trick of yours may be able to deal with ordinary monsters, but it will definitely not be able to deal with those vicious ones."
He thought Su Chen was drifting.
Before it was just good luck.
After all, the evil cultivator had already been tortured once when he handed it over to Su Chen. He couldn't bear to be tortured again. If he tricked him once, do you think he could reproduce it on a large scale?
After all, you are still too young!
Upon seeing this, Su Chen immediately changed his words and said: "Then please allow me to escort the demon together. In this way, the elder should be able to rest assured."
Su Chen's true purpose is to participate in escorting higher-level demons.
He first asked Elder Di to inspect the authority above the fifth floor of the Demon Locking Tower.
After being rejected, he retreated and settled for the next best thing, and offered to escort the demon together with the elder.
In this case, the probability of rejection will be much smaller.
After all, Elder Di had already rejected him once.
I'm embarrassed to refuse anymore.
This is Su Chen's real strategy!
"Can."
really.
This time Elder Di finally agreed happily.
He can still make the final decision on such a small matter as helping escort.
"Since you choose to stay here, I respect your decision.
However, you disciples guarding the tower have never had a formal person in charge.
Now, it's up to you to be in charge. "
