I Can Recognize Everything, But the Information is Wrong Chapter 195 160 The Trace of Nine-Life True Man

Tian Lin had just closed his room door when the older maid ca knocking.

"Master, the Autumn child from the old residence has brought you a Tribute plate."

Tian Lin stood up to open the door, looking at the young man behind the maid.

The young man was holding a transmission plate with five earth spirit stones of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth each on it.

Beneath the thirty Low Grade Spirit Stones were a white robe with golden edges, and on top of the robe lay a silver waist plate.

Before Tian Lin could speak, the young man already said, "Tian Daoist, this is from the Great Elder for you to take."

Tian Lin only took the silver waist plate and refused to accept the clothes and Spirit Stones on the transmission plate:

"I have not rited any reward; I'm already troubled by freeloading and would feel guilty to take anything more from your esteed house."

The young man smiled and said, "Daoist Tian, you speak as if you are an outsider, but you are a Tribute of our Tong Family, so you are one of us. There is no 'your esteed house' here, only 'our residence'."

This young man was articulate, making it difficult for Tian Lin to decline.

The maid, observant of the situation, without waiting for Tian Lin's instructions, helped him to take the transmission plate.

Tian Lin said to the young man, "I will accept the Spirit Stones and clothes, and will personally visit and thank the Great Elder for his generosity another day."

The young man bowed and said, "If Daoist has no other instructions, then I shall take my leave first."

After he finished speaking and was about to leave, the maid who had just placed the transmission plate on the table chased after him, calling out, "Autumn child, wait a mont."

Using his Foundation Establishnt cultivation, Tian Lin could see the maid at the door took out a Spirit Stone from her own purse and handed it to the young man.

The young man grinned with thanks and finally left 'Tian's residence'.

By the ti the maid ca back with hot water, Tian Lin looked at the thirty Spirit Stones on the transmission plate and picked up the robe.

Thirty Low Grade Spirit Stones was a considerable amount in the Yulong Continent.

But in Cangzhou, Low Grade Spirit Stones were not particularly rare.

Tian Lin picked up the robe from the transmission plate and asked the maid, "What is this fabric made of, it looks like a Magical Treasure?"

While replacing the hot water in Tian Lin's teapot, the maid laughed and explained:

"It is woven from the silk of the Spirit Moths and Golden Leaf Grass, which are both used for making Magical Treasures. So, while the robe isn't a Magical Treasure, it would still take about a hundred Low Grade Spirit Stones to acquire."

Tian Lin laughed and said, "The Great Elder's generosity is truly overwhelming."

The maid explained to Tian Lin:

"Master, there's no need to feel embarrassed, our Tong Family grows Golden Leaf Grass and keeps Spirit Moths ourselves. Although the robe is expensive to buy outside, for us, it actually doesn't cost many Spirit Stones.

Moreover, those who beco Tributes to the Tong Family, aside from the initial gift, will also receive presents during holidays and festivals. So it's not just here, all Tributes are treated the sa."

Tian Lin put down the robe, took the tea handed to him by the maid, and asked her, "Several Tributes live in this vicinity, do you know them as well?"

Although he had changed his appearance, he was still not keen on facing Zhou Shoufan, hence the question.

"There are two Tributes living to our left, Daoist Gao and Immortal Cai, both are in the early stages of Foundation Establishnt and specialize in talisman making.

To our right lives Daoist Long, a Foundation Establishnt Realm Alchemist."

She told Tian Lin, "If you have any items to trade in the future, you can exchange them with them, which is much better than buying Magical Treasures or talismans outside."

As soon as she finished speaking, the younger maid at the door said, "Master, Daoist Gao from next door has arrived."

Just as the maid finished, a robust and hearty laughter rang from outside the door.

Tian Lin looked out and saw a tall and thin man entering the room, saluting him with a clasped hand:

"Tian, it's a pleasure to et you."

This lean man was over eight feet tall, resembling a bamboo pole.

Tian Lin smiled and returned the greeting, "My humble abode is sparse and unprepared, please forgive its understatent, Daoist Gao."

While they talked, the two maids hurriedly set a table and brewed tea for the tall man.

With Tian Lin's invitation, the tall man seated himself, and the two exchanged nas and places of origin, with Tian Lin naturally omitting any facts about his Yulong Continent identity.

After a short exchange of pleasantries, Gao He asked Tian Lin:

"Young as you are, you have reached the early stages of Foundation Establishnt, surely you must have a skill for earning Spirit Stones, right?"

Tian Lin stroked his grizzled beard and smiled:

"I have no special skills in the Hundreds of Cultivation Skills, relying solely on ancestral wealth and a bit of fateful luck, I barely reached the Foundation Establishnt Realm. Now with nothing in hand, I depend on the Great Elder's support for an opportunity to fish at sea."

"Tian, you have quite a sense of humor."

Although Gao He found Tian Lin's joke quite dry, he obliged with a few laughs.

But seeing that Tian Lin did not argue, he realized that Tian Lin's words might not have been jest, and he couldn't help but question:

"Do you really intend to join those fishern and earn Spirit Stones by fishing? The fish from Immortal Sinking Pond aren't worth much; I fear the Spirit Stones you'd earn in a month wouldn't be enough for three als of Spirit Rice."

Tian Lin, not fully understanding of the fishing trade, sincerely asked, "Do you have any advice, Daoist Gao?"

Gao He smiled and said perfunctorily: "There's really nothing much to advise on, after all, fishing is a proper trade."

At this point, his attitude towards Tian Lin had cooled significantly. Suddenly slapping his forehead and exclaiming "Aiyoyo," he clasped his fists towards Tian Lin and said:

"Gao still has so talisman paper to make and I need to deliver them by tomorrow. Tian, please understand, let's talk another ti."

Tian Lin was very tactful, he clasped his hands in return and smiled as he saw Gao He out.

In the room, there were only two maids remaining to serve.

The younger maid couldn't help but quietly mutter sothing unknown, while the older maid gave her a glare. When Tian Lin turned around, she approached him and said:

"This Daoist Gao, apart from selling his own talismans, also makes talismans for the Tong Family."

Tian Lin asked her, "How much can a talisman maker like him earn in a month?"

The older maid pondered for a mont, then shook her head:

"Daoist Gao is a low-grade Talisman Maker. A single piece of low-grade talisman paper could earn him a Spirit Stone. But there are differences even among low-grade Talisman Makers, so can draw dozens a day, while others may only manage a few pieces.

Moreover, there are quite a few Talisman Makers in Pingyang City. Except for a small portion of talisman paper that are in high demand, most of Gao's talismans don't get buyers.

In short, how many Spirit Stones Daoist Gao can earn in a month is not sothing we can know. But after so thought, he should be making at least a couple dozen Mid-grade Spirit Stones a month."

A few dozen Mid-grade Spirit Stones were indeed not a small sum.

"If one goes out to sea to fish, how many Mid-grade Spirit Stones can they earn in a month?"

Tian Lin looked towards the two maids, and the younger maid who had been holding back finally seized her chance to speak.

She didn't show an annoyed face to Tian Lin, but Tian Lin felt that her tone was mocking him:

"Going out to sea to fish, if one is lucky, one can earn around ten Low-grade Spirit Stones in a month."

Tian Lin frowned and said, "Is that all a Foundation Establishnt Cultivator can earn?"

The older maid, fearing he would vent his anger on her sister, rushed to explain:

"Master might not know, but the fish catches from Immortal Sinking Pond used to be very plentiful, it was a good place for our Tong Family to earn Spirit Stones. However, as ti passed, the coastal fish beca less and less, and we had to go further afield to catch fish demons.

Roughly two hundred years ago, even the more distant seas started yielding fewer fish demons and beca extrely dangerous. Out of necessity, we Tong Family then handed over Immortal Sinking Pond to the Fishern Gang, and now we only collect a small amount of Tribute Spirit Stones from them each month."

She paused, then continued: "During this period, although the catch from Immortal Sinking Pond is still low, it's enough for the people from the Fishern Gang to earn about twenty to thirty Low-grade Spirit Stones each month.

But six months ago, a large black ship suddenly appeared on the sea. On the ship was a white-clad woman with a Daoist Child, their origins unknown, wreaking havoc on the sea, slaying countless fish demons. Ever since then, those from the Fishern Gang have hardly been able to catch a single fish demon in months along this coast."

Tian Lin narrowed his eyes; wasn't it six months ago when he himself crossed the sea?

He rembered that six months prior, he had seen nurous corpses at sea. Many of those corpses were fish demons transford into human form.

At that ti, the corpses had ford surging waves, the sheer number of dead fishes was imasurable.

"A black ship, a white-clad woman?"

Tian Lin inexplicably thought of Nine-Life True Man—

"Do you rember what that white-clad woman looked like?"

After Tian Lin asked, the older maid motioned for her sister to co.

Her sister pouted and left the room, returning quickly with ink, brush, paper, and inkstone.

The older maid apologized to Tian Lin before spreading out the blank drawing paper on the table and began to sketch the features of a woman.

She first drew the hair bun and face, then the clothes and earrings.

By this point, Tian Lin was certain that the white-clad woman ntioned was indeed the Nine-Life True Man.

Just when she was about to draw the lips and add the finishing touch, Tian Lin suddenly knocked the brush from her hand.

The older maid, not understanding why, knelt down in fear.

Tian Lin said, "I'm not blaming you, it's just that this senior's cultivation is profound, and it's better not to draw her."

Just after the maid had drawn the lips, Tian Lin distinctly noticed the lips on the paper move slightly.

Tian Lin did not dare to imagine what would happen if a complete portrayal of the Nine-Life True Man was drawn.

Would she, just like appearing in an illusion, directly leap out from the drawing and strike at him?

Tian Lin did not explain what he saw with the lips moving slightly. The older maid, full of suspicion, got up.

Seeing Tian Lin tapping on the table in silence, she gestured to her sister, and the two quietly left the room.

Now, Tian Lin was left alone in the room.

He wasn't pondering whether he could catch any fish out at sea but was contemplating why the Nine-Life True Man was slaughtering so heavily over the Immortal Sinking Pond.

Moreover, the Nine-Life True Man was always rumored to be a Golden Core cultivator, but her actions did not seem to fit the mold of a Golden Core cultivator.

Thinking that the Nine-Life True Man might actually be a Nascent Soul tyrant, Tian Lin felt a chill in his heart.

He did not know whether the Nine-Life True Man was still 'thinking' about him.

If she was, then his Disguise Pill was probably of no use against her.
