Zongman: Plunder entry, starting master-slave contract

Seeing Lin Yuan's incredible look, Cui Zi raised the corners of her mouth slightly, revealing a sweet smile.

Then she put on a serious look and asked:

"Deepening the relationship between a man and a woman means love, isn't that right? Am I wrong?"

"Uh...that's indeed true."

Lin Yuan had no way of refutation, after all, that was exactly what he was thinking.

He just didn't expect that Cui Zi seemed to understand quite well.

As if sensing Lin Yuan's thoughts, Cui Zi smiled and said:

"I've also met several men who expressed their feelings in this way, either overtly or covertly, but I either rejected them or they ran away after encountering monsters or evil spirits.

You are a little kid with a big heart. I am already this old, and I am no longer worthy of you."

When she spoke to the end, Cui Zi's eyes revealed a hint of loneliness.

In this era, people usually started to reproduce at the age of fourteen, and it was not uncommon for people to get married at the age of eleven or twelve.

At her age in her twenties, to put it simply, she is at the "unwanted" level.

A handsome young man like Lin Yuan is always popular wherever he goes.

Cui Zi thinks that she is not worthy of Lin Yuan's love.

Seeing Cui Zi's statement, Lin Yuan shook his head:

"Cuizi, you are not old at all. In my eyes, you are like a fruit that has just ripened, and it is the sweetest moment.

Since you know what I mean, I won’t say more.

If you don't accept it now, I won't force you.

But I am also somewhat interested in hunting monsters. How about you just assume that I am accompanying you for this reason?"

Lin Yuan's sincere words touched Cui Zi's heart.

Her heart was beating like a deer, and her cheeks were flushed with a delicate blush.

She wanted to act like an adult and persuade Lin Yuan to leave.

But looking at the handsome boy in front of her, she nodded shyly as if possessed by some mysterious force.

Since he wants to be with me, then let's go together.

Cui Zi is well aware that her "ideal" may put her in danger at any time.

It was partly for this reason that she rejected many offers from the opposite sex.

She didn't want to give an answer, not because she didn't want to, but because she couldn't.

At least now I can have a memorable experience with him.

Thinking of this, Cui Zi no longer had any worries in her heart.

The two chatted frankly, just like when they first met.

During this process, Lin Yuan also learned about the three main targets that Cui Zi wanted to eliminate.

One is Shuten-doji, who is located on Ibuki Mountain in Omi, commands all the monsters and calls himself the "King of a Hundred Demons."

The second is the nine-tailed fox that hides in Heian-kyo and seduces the emperor.

The third is the famous demon "Otakemaru" on Mount Suzuka in Ise.

Cui Zi hopes to get rid of these three monsters to fulfill her dream.

"These three monsters?"

Lin Yuan raised his eyebrows slightly, very surprised at Cui Zi's wish.

I have to say, from the perspective of people of this era, Cui Zi is simply courting death.

However, in Lin Yuan's perception, if Cui Zi really wanted to do it, she would probably have a good chance of success.

In his perception, Shuten-doji and Otakemaru were only at the highest level of demons.

And in this era, they also call themselves "big monsters".

This is really far from what Lin Yuan imagined, which is at least a demon king-level monster.

“But to be honest, I don’t think I’ve ever really encountered any big monsters.

Could it be that my previous judgment was wrong?

But according to my memory of Dougao's strength, he should be at the Demon King level."

Lin Yuan muttered a few words and made a rough judgment.

That is, the level division among monsters may not be that strict.

The highest-level demons and demon lords can be called "big monsters".

If you think about it this way, it’s no wonder that demons, angels, and even other gods don’t take the powerful force of monsters seriously.

The top combat power is only at the "Demon King level", or even lower.

It is reasonable that it completely disappeared in later generations.

Lin Yuan shook his head speechlessly and frowned at the same time.

"But then again, does the Nine-Tailed Demon Fox... really exist?"

Several of the demonic shadow girls released by Lin Yuan have already arrived in Heian-kyo.

But they searched everywhere but could not find any trace of the "Nine-tailed Fox".

Lin Yuan is very confident about the strength of the Demon Shadow Corps.

Each of them is a smaller version of himself, possessing the strength of a super demon king, but his combat power is not inferior to that of a "main god".

When it comes to perception, they will never make mistakes.

Lin Yuan pursed his lips, activated the "King of Wisdom" and began to think.

He also asked indirectly, "Tsuizi, how much do you know about these three great monsters?"

“Most of what I know is hearsay.

If I really see it, I haven't seen it yet.

But I know..."

Cui Zi then told everything she knew.

The information about Shuten-doji and Otakemaru can be said to be the most comprehensive.

These two big monsters have been causing trouble for a long time, and a lot of information has already spread everywhere.

Only the nine-tailed fox is rumored to be the most secretive.

It is said that her name was "Tamamonomae" and some said her name was "Hayuko".

What's more, there are rumors that this nine-tailed fox is the mother of Abe Haruaki, the current number one onmyoji.

“There are so many rumors, I don’t really know.

I only hope to find the other person after arriving in Heian-kyo.

I am very sensitive to demonic energy, I will definitely be able to catch that monster!"

When Cui Zi said this, her tone was slightly playful.

When Lin Yuan heard this, his eyes flickered, and he had already made an inference in his mind.

Chapter 477: Cuizi gradually becomes red

"Rumor has it...imaginary cursed spirit...If I'm not mistaken, this Nine-Tailed Demon Fox is probably similar to the imaginary cursed spirit that Sakuragawa Rikka created.

But this is just my inference. If I want to prove it, I have to continue monitoring."

Lin Yuan looked towards the direction of Heian-kyo and narrowed his eyes slightly.

He did not let his Demon Shadow Army take action.

After all, if they had solved the problem in advance, Cui Zi and I would have gone there in vain.

Thinking of this, Lin Yuan did not continue to investigate the matter, but just asked the Demon Shadow Corps to pay attention to Heian-kyo and Abe Haruaki.

While traveling with Cuizi, Lin Yuan finally got to see what it meant to "freeze to death on the road."

Corpses can be seen almost everywhere on the roadside. Wherever there are people, there are skeletons.

Cursed spirits and monsters can be seen everywhere.

But if we really compare it to wars and robberies, the number of people killed by cursed spirits and monsters is actually far less.

When they passed by a village, they happened to encounter bandits coming down the mountain to plunder the village.

It was obvious that the bandits were going to "massacre the village". Not only did they want to take away the wealth and women, but they also wanted to kill all the men and burn down the village.

Even Cui Zi, who was unwilling to attack her fellow humans, drew her sword and killed more than a dozen bandits.

Later, after Lin Yuan eliminated the bandit stronghold, the two set off again.

In fact, this is not the first time Cui Zi has experienced this.

But this time, she had Lin Yuan by her side, someone she could talk to.

"Why do they kill each other like this and persecute others for their own selfish desires?"

"It's obvious that if everyone lives in harmony, we can live well."

"I don't understand... I don't understand, Lin Yuan."

One night, Cui Zi said with tears in her eyes.

Lin Yuan couldn't give a good answer to this question.

He reached out his hand, held Cui Zi in his arms, and comforted Cui Zi, who was like a helpless girl at this moment.

"Cuizi, I can't give you a completely correct answer, but I can give you a vague idea.

Cuizi, why do you think bandits are bandits?

Is it simply because of their desires and evil intentions? "

Lin Yuan's question made Cui Zi blink in confusion.

"Is not it?"

"I don't deny that this is partly because of this, but more because they can't survive in this world without doing evil.

You have seen the country's nobles, right? They have huge wealth in their hands, but they still plunder the people's wealth at will.

Because people can't survive, they will look for a way out.

The upper class people are only concerned with enjoying themselves, while the lower class people are fighting for a piece of bread.

To truly change this situation, the people need to be able to take charge..."

Lin Yuan expressed the concepts he knew, using the "Word of God" method so that Cui Zi could understand.

Cui Zi, who was originally confused, seemed to have a light in her eyes as she listened, and they brightened up again.

“Reform… progress… yes!

Only in this way can we truly change the world! ! ”

Cui Zi murmured to herself, deeply attracted by the ideas Lin Yuan said, and also longing for the world he envisioned.

Looking at Cui Zi, who seemed about to raise her sickle and hammer in the next second, Lin Yuan shook his head and continued:

"This is not something that can be changed by the efforts of one generation, and everything I say is based on the purely material world.

In today's world with gods, I think the concept of a philosopher king is easier to realize."

"Philosopher King?"

Cui Zi hummed softly, came back to her senses and looked at Lin Yuan.

She was like a curious baby, eager to understand what this concept was.

Lin Yuan didn't hold back and said bluntly, "To put it bluntly, a Philosopher King is a leader who is absolutely upright, kind, benevolent, and altruistic, leading the entire world and thereby bringing about systematic change from top to bottom."

"Yes, if there were a king like this, everything would change. If there were..."
