"Yang Chen, recently someone has offered a bounty to interpret some ancient texts." After arranging the bounty for Yang Lan that Yang Chen had explained, Shangguan Feng returned to Yang Chen again "Maybe you will be interested."
"Interpret ancient texts?" Yang Chen's heart moved. Could it be from Taitianmen? Thinking of this, Yang Chen couldn't help but ask "Who is offering a bounty?"
"An overseas rogue cultivator." Shangguan Feng replied "He said that he got an ancient secret book and needs a master who can interpret ancient texts to help interpret it."
"Hmph, he is not afraid that I will learn it after I interpret it?" Yang Chen asked casually. Since it was a rogue cultivator and it was a secret book, it was not necessarily from Taitianmen. With an indifferent attitude, Yang Chen just wanted to know more about it.
"He will definitely describe the individual words one by one and split them up for you to interpret." Shangguan Feng replied with a smile "Anyway, as long as the order is disrupted, you won't know what the content is."
"That's true." Yang Chen nodded, but there were still some doubts in his heart, but in front of Senior Brother Shanghai Feng, he did not show too much.
"I think you should go and see it." Shangguan Feng looked very interested and said with a smile "There have been several people who have told me about this and asked me to help pay attention to it. I believe you will be interested in the bounty. "
"Oh?" Hearing Shangguan Feng say this, Yang Chen immediately smelled a strong conspiracy. A bounty for an unknown rogue cultivator, there were several people who reminded Shangguan Feng, and the bounty was something that Yang Chen would be interested in. To say that it was not aimed at him, Yang Chen really did not believe it.
"It's a fire seed, a fourth grade fire seed." Shangguan Feng continued with a smile "Haven't you been collecting fire seeds? This guy's bounty seems to be directed at you. "
Hearing that the reward was a fire seed, Yang Chen could already be sure that this must be directed at him. Otherwise, there wouldn't have been so many people who reminded him through Shangguan Feng. Five or six years ago, there was such a thing in the Green Jade Immortal Island. Now it was so obvious that it had nothing to do with the Taitianmen.
"There's no need to pay attention to this kind of news in the future." Shangguan Feng would not harm Yang Chen. He just told Yang Chen an indirect message. Yang Chen would not blame him. He just expressed his own thoughts, "If anyone asks, just say that I'm not interested."
"Alright!" Shanghai Feng did not have the slightest dissatisfaction. Yang Chen's decision was Yang Chen's business. He had never thought of making decisions for Yang Chen. But curiosity still drove him to ask, "But, you don't want this fourth grade fire seed?"
"Yes." Yang Chen smiled again and said, "But I want to live more."
"What do you mean?" Shanghai Feng's brows wrinkled. He told Yang Chen this news just to help Yang Chen, but if Yang Chen was hurt because of this, it was not his original intention.
"What kind of secret book is worth a fourth grade fire seed?" Yang Chen sneered "If it's really so precious, he will never allow any leakage afterwards. Who knows if I will restore the secret book from those scattered words? Maybe there are not many words in the secret book? "
Shanghai Feng knew something about the grievances between Yang Chen and the Taitianmen, but Yang Chen would never tell him everything, so he used such a reason to explain.
But for Shanghai Feng, this reason was enough. When the other party arranged it, it was obvious that in order to attract the attention of Yang Chen, he used the reward of a fourth grade fire seed. However, this became the only flaw.
Yang Chen had a lot of low-grade fire seeds in his hands, so the third grade or lower fire seeds certainly could not attract Yang Chen. The fourth grade fire seed was just right. However, in order to attract Yang Chen, they forgot the preciousness of the fourth grade fire seed. Perhaps in the eyes of those decision-makers, the fourth grade fire seed was not a great thing, but it was really abnormal for a rogue cultivator to have it.
Shanghai Feng immediately realized the danger. At first, he only thought that if Yang Chen could interpret it, he could easily get a fourth grade fire seed, but he did not think too deeply about the danger. Of course, this was also because the few people who mentioned this matter to him were all old friends who had worked with him for many years, and he did not have too much defense at all.
The other party also said it casually. Shanghai Feng thought that Yang Chen would be interested in it, so he went to understand it in depth, which also made him ignore some things. Now that he thought about it, he suddenly felt a cold sweat.
"I was negligent." Shanghai Feng's face was a little bad. This small thing also made him suddenly discover that even some of his friends who had worked with him for a long time in business were not necessarily completely trustworthy.
Between these business partners or cooperation targets and Yang Chen, Shanghai Feng would definitely not hesitate to choose Yang Chen. Without Yang Chen, Shanghai Feng was nothing, but without these business partners, Shanghai Feng was still Shangguan Feng, it was as simple as that.
This small episode did not seem to cause any waves except for the change in Shanghai Feng's attitude towards several business partners. But Yang Chen knew that this was his opportunity.
After Yang Chen clearly expressed through Shanghai Feng that he was not interested in the interpretation of the ancient secret book, the matter seemed to begin to disappear, and then slowly disappeared in the eyes of the public, as if it had never appeared.
Yang Chen began to make preparations. The other party repeatedly confirmed whether Yang Chen knew some ancient characters, and even used several methods to test him. This could only explain one point, that was, the Taitianmen had something that needed Yang Chen to interpret, and it was very likely that Yang Chen was the only one who knew this thing at present.
This seemed to be a very good opportunity. Yang Chen did not believe that it would be something like a secret book. There was no secret book that was worthy of such a big sect like the Taitianmen to spend so much effort. It must be known that even if there was no new secret book, the Taitianmen was still the most powerful Taoist sect. It did not matter whether there was this secret book or not.
Therefore, what the Taitianmen valued must not be a secret book, but something else. It was impossible to have a single magic weapon, and combined with the current predicament of the Taitianmen, it seemed that only one thing could make them pay so much attention.
Resources, a lot of resources, or it was very likely to be a secret land passed down from a Sect. This secret land had been passed down for so long that even the characters had changed. No one in the Taitianmen could interpret it, so they would look for an expert like Yang Chen who was proficient in ancient characters.
The opportunity seemed to come to Yang Chen inadvertently.
