Chapter 1955 Persuasion
Qu Jianlei's impression of the Immortal Bowen was indeed very bad.
He keeps calling Zhongzhou, which shows an inexplicable sense of superiority. He is also very arbitrary in doing things, thinking "I do what I want".
But to say that this person has committed any unforgivable mistake, that’s really not the case.
Even when he came to provoke, he was invited and had no subjective hostility towards Hongyeling.
It's nothing more than being rude and a bit annoying.
Qu Jianlei snorted, "This guy is really annoying. If we had our previous tempers, he would be lucky to survive to the second episode."
"Well...actually he has his own considerations," Zhu Jiayi could only smile bitterly.
"He is not a shallow person. The key is not to flaunt it. If people find out that he is from Dongsheng, it will be a big trouble."
"After all, the Khajiit may invade a second time, and he is worried about that."
This really is... very reasonable! Qu Jianlei really didn't know how to refute it.
He could only snort in dismay, "I've already said it before, the tiger people's invasion... hehe, there may not be a second time."
"I know this," Zhu Jiayi nodded, "but the problem is, he doesn't know, right?"
In fact, he knew very well in his heart that he was willing to believe Hongyeling, but Duan Bowen might not believe it.
After all, it concerns the life and death of the whole family. Who would easily believe the words of an outsider?
"Tsk," Qu Jianlei smacked his lips. There was at least one good thing about Duan Bowen. When Dongsheng was invaded, he really went in!
It is not impossible to give this kind of person a break if he does not forget his roots. "Then what about this passage to Zhongzhou..."
"I will definitely ask him to agree," Zhu Jiayi said without hesitation, "He is actually a really good person."
"I hope so," Qu Jianlei snorted without comment, then ordered someone to bring Immortal Bowen over.
When Duan Bowen was brought in, he still had a rebellious look on his face, "Stop talking, I have made up my mind... am I rude?"
He stared at Zhu Jiayi in amazement, his expression frozen.
Zhu Jiayi smiled slightly, stood up and bowed, "Brother Bowen, long time no see."
"Damn it," Duan Bowen spat out a swear word, and the expression on his face changed back and forth, just like the face-changing performance in Sichuan Opera.
Finally, he sighed heavily, "Brother Jiayi...you are hurting me."
"How did I harm you?" Zhu Jiayi smiled again, "It was obviously the Seven Star Sect who harmed you... or the Zeng Family."
"Okay, then I won't pretend anymore," Duan Bowen sat down on the chair next to him and crossed his legs.
He said lazily, "Brother Jiayi, are you here to save me?"
"If I don't save you, who will I save?" Zhu Jiayi replied with a smile, "You don't want to be the next Xiaoyao Zhenxian, do you?"
"Xiaoyao...that was also my former fighting partner," Duan Bowen muttered softly, then looked at Qu Jianlei.
"Did you really kill him?"
"Control your temper," Zhu Jiayi sighed, "Just because Hongyeling follows strict rules doesn't mean you can do whatever you want."
"Sorry, it's become a habit," Duan Bowen replied casually, without any guilt on his face.
"It can't be changed. Otherwise, Brother Jiayi, you don't have to save me."
"Put aside your tricks," Zhu Jiayi's face darkened, "You may not see the second invasion of the tiger people in your lifetime!"
He knew what the other party's concern was, and even if he was killed by Hongyeling, he didn't want to affect his family.
The cultivators in Dongsheng do have many concerns when they want to attack the cultivators in Zhongzhou.
But if it really came to a last resort, he would rather be killed by the cultivators of Dongsheng. In that way, his family would never have any contact with Dongsheng again.
As expected, after hearing this, Zhu Jiayi was stunned, "What did you say?"
He frowned, then spoke in a deep voice, "Where did you get this information from? Is it reliable?"
Zhu Jiayi nodded in the direction of Qu Jianlei and said, "They are the ones who told me."
"Hongye Ridge..." Duan Bowen looked Qu Jianlei up and down, his eyes full of suspicion, "Can you trust it?"
Qu Jianlei replied expressionlessly, "Actually, to me, it doesn't matter whether you believe it or not."
"Look, you're even more arrogant than me..." Duan Bowen spread his hands towards Zhu Jiayi, "It's really unpleasant to look at, right?"
Zhu Jiayi frowned helplessly. His friend was good in every way except for his temper... Alas!
"Tsk," Qu Jianlei chuckled disdainfully, "We have the capital to be arrogant, what do you have?"
"Is your capital for arrogance to use your numbers to bully the few?" Duan Bowen glanced at him with an expression that looked like he deserved a beating.
But it was no wonder that he was dissatisfied. In his opinion, he had enough ability to escape at that time. He only hated that the other party had tried their best to block him.
The internal fight among the human cultivators actually used such despicable means of using more numbers against fewer. Could he accept this?
"Haha," Qu Jianlei smiled indifferently, "You should be thankful that you are a human cultivator."
The other party wants to know why you are so arrogant. It may be because of simple dissatisfaction, but it may also be because they want to test the waters.
He has seen this kind of rhetoric too many times.
Anyway, there is no way he would be led by anyone, so those explanations are really unnecessary.
"Really?" Duan Bowen looked at him suspiciously again, "So you guys are very experienced in dealing with tiger people?"
Qu Jianlei shook his head. "Forget it. Summer insects can't talk about ice. Just be happy."
"Now that Fellow Daoist Jia Yi has come to plead for mercy, we are too lazy to bother with you."
"I'll show you the passage to Zhongzhou, and you can go."
"The passage..." Duan Bowen looked at Zhu Jiayi in astonishment, "You even said this?"
"You said it as if no one could guess it," Zhu Jiayi replied disapprovingly, "others just don't feel comfortable asking you."
Duan Bowen was silent for a while before he spoke, "It is not convenient for me to do this... unless you can exchange it for information about the tiger man."
"Interesting..." Qu Jianlei's mouth curled up slightly. The other party was really fearless.
However, such direct confrontation is better than saying one thing and thinking another. He smiled slightly and said, "It seems that you are still being polite. Then let's search his soul."
Previously, he decided not to search the soul simply because he was concerned about the cultivators in Zhongzhou, but now, there is no need to think so much.
"Look," Duan Bowen looked at Zhu Jiayi helplessly, with obvious anger in his eyes - it's all your fault!
However, Zhu Jiayi really didn't care. "Don't glare at me. If they hadn't shown mercy, you would have died...fallen."
"Really?" Duan Bowen sneered, obviously not believing it.
"The complete corpse of the tiger man's Nascent Soul came from Zhujia Market... their spoils of war!" Zhu Jiayi said indifferently.
"They have more than one or two corpses of tiger-men Yuanying in their hands! How many tiger-men Yuanying have you killed?"
He knew too well what Duan Bowen's weakness was. In the battle with the tiger people, all the Duan family members in Dongsheng were wiped out.
Although he had established a family in Zhongzhou and his family was not affected, the demise of the Dongsheng Duan family was still a pain in his heart.
"Really?" Duan Bowen frowned, obviously not quite believing it.
However, although Zhu Jiayi had not dealt with Hongyeling many times, he could imagine that this kind of force would definitely not bother to prove itself.
So he coughed lightly and took out a wooden shield. "Here... can you take a look?"
Duan Bowen was under a ban, but his eyesight was still there.
He took the wooden shield and played with it for a while before looking at Qu Jianlei in astonishment, "Is this... made of a tree from another world?"
He knew Zhu Jiayi's abilities too well. Such a thing could never have come from the Zhu family.
Qu Jianlei nodded slightly but was too lazy to say anything - this kid's expression really deserves a beating!
Zhu Jiayi spoke slowly, "This is also what the ancestors of Hongyeling obtained when they conquered the other world."
"Oh my god..." Duan Bowen muttered softly, "This weapon refining technique... is not from the upper realm, where is this world?"
"It's very far away from Cangwu Realm," Qu Jianlei finally spoke, "I'm afraid you won't be able to see it in your lifetime."
Duan Bowen tilted his head and thought for a while, then suddenly asked, "Then Huai Heng's fall, the demon world... have you ever been there?"
"This topic is really boring," Qu Jianlei said indifferently.
"Demons are not uncommon in the world, but Huai Heng is... should we plot against him?"
Duan Bowen was silent for a while before he sighed, "If I had known that Hongyeling was so knowledgeable, why would I have come here?"
Qu Jianlei remained silent, just looking at him calmly.
Duan Bowen was silent for a while, then stretched out his right hand, "Give me a piece of tiger man's Yuanying flesh and blood, and I will tell you the way."
Qu Jianlei waved his hand without saying a word, and a furry severed hand appeared on the ground.
He said calmly, "We have a lot of this kind of stuff, but... I hope it's worth the money."
He didn't say anything like "If you dare to cheat", but that was what he meant.
Duan Bowen squatted down, fiddled with it for a while, and then nodded, "Okay, it's not unfair to lose to you, I admit it!"
Qu Jianlei smiled indifferently and said, "Even if you don't admit it, what can I do?"
Duan Bowen pondered for a moment and then spoke again, "The passage to and from Zhongzhou needs me to lead you there, otherwise it will be difficult for you to find it."
"That's no problem," Qu Jianlei said straightforwardly. It would be best to have someone lead the way to avoid mismatching the goods.
"But in the short term, I have no plans to go back," Duan Bowen looked directly at him, "Dongsheng has something going on recently."
"I'll contact you when I'm done with this part and about to go back."
Without waiting for Qu Jianlei to speak, Zhu Jiayi said without hesitation, "My Zhu family can guarantee it."
Qu Jianlei glanced at him and nodded slightly, "You two have a good relationship... indeed."
Once Duan Bowen escapes, he can get away with it, but the Zhu family is so big that it is impossible for him to escape.
Zhu Jiayi smiled slightly, "I've wanted to go to Zhongzhou for a long time, but I was too embarrassed to tell him. This is a good opportunity to take a ride."
Qu Jianlei was stunned when he heard this, "You have never been to Zhongzhou?"
How could Zhu Jiayi be over a thousand years old? Has he been staying in Dongsheng all this time?
