Chapter 341 - Chapter 341: Chapter 43 Forgetful Cow 3 (2/2)
Lin Jue first looked towards Lin Jing with a puzzled expression, but under Lin Jing’s gesture, he extended his Divine Sense into the Storage Bag.
As soon as he probed it, he immediately withdrew.
“Senior…this…this…”
Lin Jue was utterly shocked at this moment, to the extent that he had lost the ability to speak.
It was simply because the items inside were far too precious for him.
“Accept them. I have said that after accepting your Yellow Dragon Spirit Grass, I would compensate you in another way.”
“But…but this is too valuable…” Lin Jue was somewhat overwhelmed at the moment.
“The Yellow Dragon Spirit Grass is the main ingredient for refining Yellow Dragon Elixir. Its rarity and value are naturally higher than other third-rank Spirit Plants.”
“Moreover, your Yellow Dragon Spirit Grass was so intact that it has saved me a lot of effort.”
Lin Jing meant this of course during the planting in the System Space.
With a complete root system, Lin Jing could directly plant the Yellow Dragon Spirit Grass in the System Space without needing to use Harvest Points for repairs.
For Lin Jing, this saved yet another sum of Harvest Points, which was quite satisfactory.
In the end,
after Lin Jing’s persuasion, Lin Jue eventually put the Storage Bag away.
After that, Lin Jing did not linger at Lin Jue’s place and soon left after making small talk.
After Lin Jing had gone,
Lin Jue, who saw Lin Jing off, clutched the corner of his robe tightly and watched his departing figure, lost in thought.
Clearly, his heart was not at ease.
……
After leaving Lin Jue’s place, Lin Jing walked straight in the direction he had come from.
He had come out in the late morning, but by the time he was returning, evening was approaching.
Lin Jing walked out of the ‘slums’ in the southwestern corner of Bihai City and onto the spacious street.
Then, he followed the street north.
He just didn’t know whether Yan Wanfei had finished discussing the matter with the other two.
Just as Lin Jing was passing by the Fang Market again along the street,
suddenly a familiar voice reached his ears.
“Brother Lin, where have you been? You’ve given me quite the search…”
Lin Jing turned his head towards the direction the voice came from.
He saw a burly man, looking excitedly, walking towards him.
This big man was none other than Yan Wanfei.
Soon after, Yan Wanfei approached Lin Jing and said,
“Brother Lin, let’s go…”
“I’ll take you to meet Lu Youjiu and the others, we’ve already discussed it and we want to invite you to join us on this task.”
Lin Jing, upon hearing this, was instantly baffled:
“What business do I have in this?”
Yan Wanfei nodded and then said,
“Aren’t you in need of an Earthflame Marrow Crystal?”
“I mentioned before that my friend has an Earthflame Marrow Crystal, and that crystal belongs to San He. I also mentioned to him the matter of you needing an Earthflame Marrow Crystal.”
“In the end, after our discussion, we decided to have you join us in completing this task, and once it’s done, he will gift you the Earthflame Marrow Crystal.”
“I just was not sure if you’d be willing, so they asked me to come find you…”
After listening to Yan Wanfei, Lin Jing frowned and pondered for a moment, then asked Yan Wanfei:
“May I know what exactly is this task about?”
Yan Wanfei glanced around and then said,
“This place is crowded and complicated, let’s first go to meet Lu Youjiu and the others, after meeting them, they will explain everything clearly to you.”
After hearing what Yan Wanfei said, Lin Jing considered it for a moment.
Although he did not know much about Holaw Three Rivers, through the interactions over the past few days,
Lin Jing had gained a general understanding. He trusted both Yan Wanfei and Lu Youjiu to some extent.
They probably would not harm him.
If there were any issues with the task, he could simply refuse at that time.
With this thought, Lin Jing nodded and said,
“Alright…”
Saying no more, he left the Fang Market with Yan Wanfei.
……
Following Yan Wanfei, they continued northward along the street, and the two of them returned to the incredibly bustling main street of Bihai City.
When they passed the alley leading to the small courtyard, Lin Jing was extremely surprised and quickly called out to Yan Wanfei, who had continued walking forward:
“Daoist Yan, going back to the courtyard should take this alley, you’ve passed it…”
Yan Wanfei turned around, looked towards Lin Jing standing at the entrance of the courtyard, then slapped his forehead and exclaimed,
“Oh no… look at my brains, forgetting again…”
“Lu Youjiu and San He are not in the courtyard, they’re waiting for us at Yingxian Residence ahead.”
Lin Jing was speechless; this seemed not to be the first time.
Last time, he even got a beating from Lu Youjiu because of this.
“Daoist Yan, you…”
Lin Jing wanted to say something, then thought better of it and let it go.
Yan Wanfei then said to Lin Jing,
“I know what Brother Lin wants to say, this is actually one of the characteristics of our Green Illusion Demon Ox Clan, being broad-minded and often forgetting minor details.”
“No wonder, I misunderstood Daoist Yan…”
Hearing Yan Wanfei’s explanation, Lin Jing then understood what was going on.
“No problem, no problem…”
Yan Wanfei then smiled and said.
After speaking, Yan Wanfei further reassured Lin Jing,
“Brother Lin, rest assured, I definitely won’t forget anything particularly important…”
Seeing the earnest look on Yan Wanfei’s face, Lin Jing couldn’t help but feel skeptical.
……
Before long, Lin Jing and Yan Wanfei arrived at Yingxian Residence.
No sooner had they arrived than from an open window on the third floor above, a familiar voice came:
“Niu San, Lin Daoyou…”
The two looked up to see Lu Youjiu and Holaw Three Rivers, leaning against the window and looking out.
