Dimension Paradise, I am a summoning apostle

Chapter 577 The Azure Dragon Coiled in Wood, the Lofty Canopy Forms a Bond of Brotherhood
After seeing Yang Qianyuan off, 150 amusement park points were used.

Chu Danqing set off in the direction given by Yang Qianyuan.

The SS-level difficulty of the rank promotion assessment, coupled with the rank promotion enhancement authority, makes it truly difficult.

However, there is some good news: this trial mission does not have a time limit.

But this is also bad news, because it means that Chu Danqing doesn't know when the mission might fail.

After all, the other party is the true chosen one, in other words, a dragon with an infallible destiny, and a dragon with golden words at that.

Fortunately, the amusement park isn't some kind of monster; it won't fail in just three to five days, but will take at least a month.

Unfortunately, Chu Danqing didn't know who the Crimson-Bearded Fire Dragon really was.

It wasn't that Yang Qianyuan didn't want to speak, but rather that the true Son of Heaven was protected, and he couldn't see through him.

The world does not recognize Yang Qianyuan's identity as emperor.

Chu Danqing quickly arrived at the location given by Yang Qianyuan.

There was a lush banyan tree that blocked out the sunlight like a canopy.

Under the banyan tree, Chu Danqing glanced over and saw a blue dragon lying there, its horns, claws, and scales gone, barely clinging to life.

The fiery aura emanating from him clung to his body like a maggot, causing even the banyan tree to appear somewhat wilted.

Then, when he looked again, he had transformed into a ragged young man.

The other person lay unconscious on the ground, pale-faced with cracked lips, appearing to be barely breathing.

That fleeting glimpse just now was a chance encounter by Chu Danqing, the 'fortune teller' and 'the mortal king of Mars', who happened to see the other party's primordial spirit.

Not everyone possesses a primordial spirit; one is either born extraordinary or descended from a group of immortals or gods.

Ordinary people shouldn't even dream of owning it.

Chu Danqing then leaned over and reached out to touch the other person's forehead.

She had a fever, and further examination revealed that she also had a cold and some malnutrition.

Chu Danqing knew that the primordial spirit would not directly affect the person, but if the primordial spirit was damaged or died, it would manifest itself.

For example, the Azure Dragon of the Panmu was on its last breath, which is why this boy became like this due to illness.

If he fails to survive and his primordial spirit dissipates, then the boy will die from the illness.

When the primordial spirit is strong, the person is strong; when the primordial spirit is weak, the person is weak; when the primordial spirit collapses, the person dies.

They were originally one entity, but they just didn't realize it.

Chu Danqing had Da Bai give the boy a round of healing, and then Chu Danqing took out a bowl of sugar water from her storage space and fed it to him.

As the symptoms subsided, the fiery energy on Panmu Qinglong's body was suppressed back into his body and no longer manifested outwards.

However, this anger could not be completely eliminated, becoming a hidden danger.

The boy slowly opened his eyes, smelled the sweet aroma in his mouth, and looked somewhat confused.

Looking again at Chu Danqing, he thought to himself, 'This is the man who saved me.'

"Thank you so much for your help, benefactor." The boy said weakly, "I can do it myself."

“Okay, then drink slowly. I just had Da Bai cure your ailment, but your body is still weak and you need to rest.” Chu Danqing said.

The boy held the bowl and followed Chu Danqing's instructions, sipping the sugar water in small bites.

The sweet syrup gave him strength and gradually warmed his body.

But as I drank, tears started to fall.

Chu Danqing was startled by the other person's condition and quickly asked, "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"

There's definitely no problem with the sweet soup; it's food cooked by a skilled culinary apostle.

"My benefactor, you flatter me. I lament what sins I committed in my past life to deserve this retribution today." With that, the young man introduced himself.

His surname is Chai, and his given name is Jungui. His parents died early.

He then took over the family business of selling umbrellas.

They traded goods in various cities on a regular basis and managed to make a living by paying their taxes.

Several days ago, when I passed by the Flying Cloud Bridge, I saw a red-faced man and a black-faced man fighting with the sitting tiger.

It was precisely because he had paid the bridge toll that these two burly men, skilled in martial arts, beat the sitting tiger black and blue.

But how can a dragon crossing the river fight against a local snake?

This local bully dares to block the bridge and charge fees, so he must be part of a gang in the area.

As a result, dozens of men rushed out and attacked together. The two men in red and black were no match for the four men and could only flee.

This caused Chai Jungui great distress, as a whole cartload of umbrellas fell into the river during the fight.

The wheelbarrow was smashed to pieces, and the umbrella on it was swept away by the river, its whereabouts unknown.

If that's the case, then so be it; the money pouch he left in the car, covered by an umbrella, is also lost.

If this money were still in hand, it would be enough to start a business.

But as a result, the wheelbarrow was gone, the goods were gone, and the capital was gone too.

If you encounter something like this, of course you should report it to the authorities.

It's easy to imagine that there was no result.

The government office faces south; those with reason but no money should not enter.

Because he was from out of town, he was stripped naked, beaten, and thrown out.

Unable to cope with her condition and suffering from her injuries, she fell seriously ill that very night.

Fortunately, some kind people helped him out, which allowed him to survive until now. However, this help was not enough to fill his stomach.

The illness worsened due to hunger and thirst, until it became terminal, and he has been in a daze ever since.

"If it weren't for your kindness in saving me, I would have died tonight." As he said this, Chai Jungui wiped away a tear.

"My benefactor has not abandoned me. I am willing to acknowledge you as my elder brother and serve you faithfully!"

The words were sincere, but there was also a selfish motive involved.

He could tell at a glance that Chu Danqing was no ordinary person, and that he himself would probably have no chance of surviving in this world.

So, by becoming Chu Danqing's underling, at least he could have something to eat.

As for other thoughts, he had none; he was content to be a good underling and not starve to death.

Chu Danqing was both amused and exasperated upon hearing this.

"Our meeting is by chance, why talk about becoming sworn brothers?" Chu Danqing refused, then said, "You were able to overcome such a serious illness; with such resilience, you will surely achieve great things in the future."

"Being a subordinate is really not appropriate," Chu Danqing said. "How about we become sworn brothers?"

He was certain that Chai Jungui was just an honest and law-abiding ordinary citizen.

When Chu Danqing said this, Chai Jungui was stunned.

"This...this..." He stammered, "How can this be?"

"What's wrong with that?" Chu Danqing said with a smile. "Your resilience is extraordinary, and so am I."

"Neither of us are ordinary people, so how can we not?"

"Or do you look down on me?" Chu Danqing retorted.

"Good!" Upon hearing Chu Danqing's words about being an extraordinary person, Chai Jungui felt a surge of energy flow from his Baihui acupoint to his limbs and bones, finally returning to his Yongquan acupoint.

Chu Danqing glanced at the scene and saw the primordial spirit of the coiled azure dragon appear above Chai Jungui's head. Although it was crippled, it still raised its head and roared like a dragon.

This means it's officially activated.

“If you don’t mind my crudeness, brother, how dare I disagree?” Chai Jungui immediately said, “Let’s do as you say, brother, and become sworn brothers.”

"It's a pity there's no incense, candles, or sacrificial offerings here; it's rather simple."

"However, the bond between you and me, brothers, is so deep that Heaven and Earth will surely not mind," Chai Jungui said regretfully.

“I have one,” Chu Danqing said, taking it out of his storage space. “I’ve been learning martial arts since I was a child, and I know a technique called ‘Hidden Universe in the Sleeve’.”

When Chai Jungui saw what Chu Danqing took out, his eyes widened in surprise.

"I thought I was above my station, but I never imagined that you were so unapproachable, elder brother." Chai Jungui had underestimated Chu Danqing.

"Haha, what's with all this talk about climbing the social ladder?" Chu Danqing then said, "As the saying goes, fortunes change every thirty years, so don't underestimate a young man's potential."

As they spoke, the two quickly set up the ceremony, then offered sacrifices to heaven and earth and became sworn brothers.

After the ceremony, Chu Danqing keenly sensed that she and the other party had formed some kind of connection.

However, this was only one-sided; Chu Danqing could sense it, but Chai Jungui could not.

'Sharing the same fortune?' Chu Danqing examined it carefully and found that it was somewhat similar to the effect of the Nine Cauldrons Diagram.

"Heaven and Earth bear witness that we are sworn brothers today. I will follow my elder brother's lead without any disloyalty. If I ever betray him in the future, I will be punished with three cuts and six holes, have no descendants, and be struck by lightning and die a horrible death!" Chai Jungui added.

As soon as the words were spoken, the oath was answered by the Azure Dragon of the Coiled Tree.

The Red-Bearded Fire Dragon is the true Son of Heaven, so his words are law. Although the Coiled Wood Azure Dragon is only a dragon and snake that serves as the king's vanguard, his word is also of great weight.

Chu Danqing's eye twitched: "Jun Gui, why do you have to say such things?"

He truly hadn't expected Chai Jungui to swear an oath.

After becoming sworn brothers, Chu Danqing was able to share the other's fortune, and his oath was a supplementary clause in the sworn brotherhood ceremony, so it was also recognized.

No wonder Yang Qianyuan reminded him to form a sworn brotherhood.

In this world, sworn brotherhood and oaths are not empty words.

The former can truly bind people together, and the latter can truly be a self-fulfilling prophecy.

“Brother, you come from an extraordinary background. As a younger brother, I am honored to be associated with you, so I must do my part,” Chai Jungui said earnestly.

Chu Danqing helped him up and said, "You and I are true brothers, you're exaggerating."

Yang Qianyuan was indeed unable to interfere, but he chose the best path for Chu Danqing.

With a combination of ingenuity and political maneuvering, they are indeed very adept at scheming for personal gain.

After helping the person up, Chu Danqing said, "These foods are greasy, and it's not suitable for you to eat them after recovering from a serious illness. You should eat some light food to nourish your stomach first."

Chai Jungui was also aware of Chu Danqing's good intentions.

He's been sick for so long, and his stomach is so dry. If he were to eat such a big meal of meat and fish, he'd surely collapse from diarrhea.

“Whatever you give me, I won’t mind.” Chai Jungui isn’t one of those ignorant fools.

Before his parents passed away, he had studied and learned to read and write, and was among the top students in that school.

He only took over the family business because his parents no longer helped him.

"Once you've recovered in a while, I'll treat you to a meal as your older brother," Chu Danqing said, serving some light porridge and vegetables.

"Have something to eat first, let me introduce you, this is Da Bao."

Chu Danqing introduced Chai Jungui to Da Bao, Da Gu, Da Yu, and Da Hui, who were with him.

"I'll introduce you to Big White and Big Flower next time; it's a bit inconvenient for them," Chu Danqing added.
