Chapter 249 Acting Online
"Yes!"
The person who said this was obviously a small leader. The people under him were quite respectful to him. After listening to his instructions, they responded in a uniform and resounding voice.
But Zhou Ling and Long Aotian, who were playing the role of father and daughter, looked at each other silently.
The little girl's eyes were still red, but when she saw the candied haws her father handed over, she tried to hold back her tears, but finally burst into laughter.
As a child, how long can she remember sad things? The moment she took the candied haws, her face lit up with smiles. As if she was afraid that her father would go back on his word, she took a quick bite and made a hole in the candied haws.
"I've bitten it, it's mine, I can't retreat!"
"Get out of here! Why should I return a penny worth of merchandise?"
The old father had a worried look on his face and looked at his daughter as if she were a fool.
But now that the child has been coaxed into good health, it’s time for them to go into the city.
Mortals who have disguised themselves to enter a near-mortal town do not need to provide a pass to enter this city, but their identity cards are one of the indispensable and necessary inspection items.
That’s right, I don’t know whether it was out of caution or something else, but the local mortal officials had already had dealings with the Xihai Sect in the world of immortal cultivation.
As a monk, all he needs to do is leak some spiritual wine or spiritual dew from between his fingers and let the mortals drink it diluted to resist aging and prolong their lives. Then, these mortals will obey the monks unconditionally and agree to any conditions they propose.
Issuing an identity card to every newborn mortal and taking back the identity card of every dead person is one of the most common tasks of local officials.
Although this is a bit troublesome, it is not time-consuming.
After all, a sect that cultivates immortality only needs to provide identity cards that are cheap and easy to identify.
Everything else, whether it's counting people or carrying out distribution tasks, is being done by others, and they just need to sit back and enjoy the results.
So, if you want to sneak in, it's probably not possible without an ID card.
"Don't be so dejected. Have you forgotten your master's profession?"
Zhou Ling was just worrying about where to get an ID card, but when he turned around, he found that his master had already started to act excitedly.
"It's just a disciple card! I've seen it once, and I basically remember its appearance."
"What about the inside?"
Seeing the master taking out a piece of wood and carving on it with skillful techniques, Zhou Ling couldn't help but asked carefully.
"What else can it be like? It's more or less the same. At worst, we can catch someone with bad intentions later and study his disciple card."
All I can say is that the master is a man of action. After a short while, the man with bad intentions was caught and the disciple's card was also studied.
"After entering the city, we still cannot reveal our identities unless it is absolutely necessary. Even the gatekeepers at the city gate are looking for us. This only means that the city may be watching us more closely. We must try our best to maintain the status quo. Therefore, no accidents can happen during this period. You follow me closely and don't fall into the hands of others."
Forgive Zhou Ling for wanting to start yawning. It was really because of her master’s earnest teachings, which were too frequent, one sentence after another, and sometimes she would repeat the same sentence in different occasions. She really…
She really started to have a childish mentality. She knew that the master was nagging for her own good, but why did she find it so annoying?
But soon, she no longer felt annoyed.
She followed her master into the city, one in front and one behind.
When they first entered the city, there was a lot of people and it was a bit crowded. Zhou Ling was pushed to the back several times and almost couldn't catch up with his master.
After all, there are many streets in the city, but there is only one road leading out of the city. Most people gather here, so it is hard for this road not to be crowded.
After much difficulty, we squeezed through the main road with the most traffic and entered one of the alleys. The master was in front, striding forward, his long legs seemed to cover a meter at a time.
But Zhou Ling was still young. Her body was small, her legs were short, and she couldn't use her spiritual power. If she wanted to catch up with her master who was not waiting for her at all, she had to use all her strength and jog.
Although there are not many people on this street, there are many turns and intersections. People who are not familiar with this place may easily get lost if they walk in it!
But the master did not pause at all, as if he had a clear direction and destination. He turned and changed routes without hesitation, which showed that he had been here before or was very familiar with the layout of this place.
Zhou Ling was panting as he ran.
At this moment, she finally realized the meaning of those words that her master had told her before she came out!
When there is danger, the master may be the most reliable, but when there is no danger, the master is the biggest danger!
She just didn't understand, where had the caring master gone?
He took such big steps and walked so fast without even waiting for her. So, she has short calves, so he deserved it, right?
Although there were fewer people in the streets and alleys that her master led her into, they were just fewer, not completely empty.
In this situation, even if Zhou Ling wanted to shout, she had to think carefully in her mind, for fear that shouting would expose their whereabouts.
After all, walls have ears, and this is not just talk.
The people at the city gate are watching closely, and the people inside the city cannot be too lax either.
In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Zhou Ling gritted her teeth, exerted force, pushed the ground with her calves, and flew forward quickly!
Hope is right in front of us and we will catch up soon!
Although Zhou Ling was very tired, there was a look of joy on her face.
But the next second, when Zhou Ling was passing an alley, his body, which was originally trying to sprint forward, was grabbed by something in mid-air!
The smile on her face froze as her vision went dark and her hands and feet went limp. She wanted to open her mouth to call for help, but found that she couldn't even open her mouth.
6!
Snatching a child in broad daylight!
What's even more outrageous is that she actually encountered such a bad luck! ?
Zhou Ling was not sure whether the person who attacked her was a cultivator or a mortal.
But no matter which side...
Zhou Ling narrowed her eyes, hoping that their noise was loud enough to alert her master.
As long as the master finds out that she is missing and follows her scent, he will be able to save her no matter what and won’t let her get hurt.
But...it was just her wishful thinking after all.
Her hands and feet couldn't move, but she was conscious and felt like she was put in a sack and carried on someone's shoulders.
The man who was carrying her was probably not very big, at least he didn't have much flesh on his shoulders, and it hurt so much, especially when he was walking and bumping around, which made the pain worse.
Unable to do anything else, Zhou Ling just counted silently in his heart. If the master found out anything unusual, he would be able to arrive within ten breaths!
But ten breaths passed, twenty breaths passed, and finally half an hour passed.
The master who was supposed to show up didn't show up. Instead, the person who had snatched her away seemed to be carrying her to her destination.
"Sir, would you like to inspect the goods first?"
"No need." A clear and cold voice answered. Zhou Ling was stunned after hearing it. She felt that the voice sounded familiar.
