Chapter 150 Winning and Standing in Front
Chapter 150 Winning and Standing in Front
"Everyone, please keep quiet! Allow me to say one thing. There is indeed a fellow Taoist who is setting up a stall outside our sect. This person is a disciple of Lingyun Sect. Her claim that she can help cultivators practice and improve their realm is by no means false."
As soon as the words fell, doubts were raised in the crowd: "Why can't we see him? Where is he?"
Then there was another voice echoing: "Yes! Where is the person? How come he disappeared?"
Some people even started to make a fuss, "Could it be that he was hidden by you guys?" As soon as these words came out, all the cultivators opened their eyes wide and stared at Gu Jinzhe.
Facing the accusations and suspicions of the crowd, Gu Jinzhe panicked and quickly waved his hands to explain: "That is absolutely not the case! Fellow Taoists, please don't misunderstand me! Just listen to what I have to say!"
There were beads of sweat on his forehead and his voice trembled slightly due to nervousness.
Being stared at by tens of thousands of eyes, this feeling is really like a thorn in the back, fidgeting! I only heard him say:
"There is indeed a fellow Taoist who is setting up a stall outside our sect, but she has closed her stall today and will not show up until tomorrow. As for where she is now, we in Lingyue Sect are also at a loss. If you are not in a hurry, why not stay here for a night and you will know the result tomorrow!"
A questioning voice suddenly came from the crowd: "Are you serious?"
"How could it be false?" Gu Jinzhe responded quickly.
Seeing this, everyone was already 70% to 80% convinced. In this case, why not wait a night? As long as the legendary delicacy can really help people ascend to a higher realm, everything is worth it;
But if the reputation doesn't live up to its name, huh... then don't blame them for turning against you!
"In that case, I guess Lingyue Sect must have already experienced what that food tastes like?" Someone suddenly asked loudly in the crowd.
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw that the person who spoke was a middle-aged man with a strong face and eyes as deep as the abyss.
Gu Jinzhe nodded slightly, expressing his agreement, "Don't be surprised, I am indeed fortunate enough to have tasted such delicacies before."
Hearing this, all the cultivators present were curious. They stared at Gu Jinzhe and asked eagerly, "Oh? How does it taste? Can it really help people break through the bottleneck of cultivation?"
Facing everyone's expectant gazes, Gu Jinzhe took a deep breath and slowly replied:
"Well... this food is indeed magical and can help cultivators like me improve our realm. But its taste is a little strange when you first taste it, as if it has a faint stench.
However, after chewing it carefully, you will be surprised to find that it contains a unique and wonderful taste that is unforgettable! "
After saying this, he couldn't help but close his eyes, as if he was still savoring all the wonderful scenes he had experienced this morning.
If these people hadn't come to visit him suddenly, he would have advanced long ago. Now he is trying his best to suppress his own realm.
"Sisi~~~" As the inhalation sound was heard, the expressions of everyone present became extremely interesting.
Originally they were in the mood to laugh at the joke, but now seeing Gu Jinzhe so serious and not pretending, they were suddenly filled with an indescribable shock.
Someone couldn't help but ask: "So, you have really broken through the bottleneck and successfully advanced?"
Gu Jinzhe nodded slightly to indicate his agreement.
Then, he said slowly: "In fact, I have been deliberately suppressing my cultivation level. If you hadn't come to visit me today, I would have already entered seclusion by now."
His words were like a huge rock thrown into a calm lake, stirring up thousands of waves. Everyone looked at each other, and saw astonishment and disbelief in each other's eyes.
However, facing everyone's questioning gaze, Gu Jinzhe seemed very calm, because every word he said was true and there was no falsehood at all.
At this time, Gu Jinzhe seemed to remember something, his mouth corners slightly raised, and he muttered to himself,
Now I finally understand why the master spread this news... Who can resist the temptation of such a heaven-defying thing? I'm afraid it will cause a big uproar...
By then, I can take advantage of the situation to fish in troubled waters, not only avoid offending Lingyun Sect, but also get this incredible food. Master is really good at planning!
Gu Jinzhe was secretly proud of himself, as if he saw a bright future. However, he did not realize the impact this turmoil would have on Lingyue Sect.
"Oh, I would like to solemnly remind all of you fellow Taoists that the Taoist who is setting up the stall has a strange and eccentric personality. No matter who you are or how strong you are, you must wait in line honestly and not disrupt the order! Otherwise, she will pack up and leave!"
Gu Jinzhe warned everyone earnestly.
However, an angry shout suddenly came from the crowd: "What kind of rotten rule is this!" Obviously, some people have begun to lose control of their inner irritation and are dissatisfied with such regulations.
"Then may I ask, where did that fellow Taoist set up his stall?" someone couldn't help but ask curiously.
"It's right there!" Gu Jinzhe pointed in the direction of Yan Zhiyin's stall today.
Before he finished speaking, figures were seen rushing away like lightning, heading straight for the stall.
In the blink of an eye, a long queue formed there and people scrambled to grab a favorable position.
There were also some people who were not convinced and wanted to cut in line, but they were all turned back!
Some people were not convinced and started fighting directly. Whoever won would be in front. Both of them agreed, and the others were naturally happy to watch the fun. In this way, they started to compete in groups of three or four in front of the gate of Lingyue Sect for no apparent reason.
Fortunately, there was a Venerable Huashen on the scene who set up a barrier so that they could fight without worrying about hurting others.
In the end, no matter what, they all lined up obediently. Obviously, the stronger ones were in the front because they could run faster, or they could win the fight. However, some were smart and did not agree to fight, so others could do nothing about it and they could only line up like this!
Under normal circumstances, they would definitely not let it go, but knowing Yan Zhiyin's weird rules, they dared not do anything to change their marriage. What if she got angry and stopped setting up the stall?
