Chapter 334 My Own Place
Jian Yue sat next to him, patted his shoulder and said, "It's okay, you have to have some confidence in yourself. I think your future is bright with the way you practice. I believe that if you practice the ruthless way with Yue Hua Xian Zun, you will definitely become a hero in the future! Calling the wind and rain will not be a problem!"
Jiang Yu said, "Can I?"
Jian Yue gave him an affirmative look, moved closer to him, lowered his voice and said, "Absolutely! I think you have excellent aptitude, you might graduate even faster than Yue Hua Xian Zun's senior disciple!"
Jiang Yu was silent for a while. Just when Jian Yue was finally inspired by him, he said, "I don't want to graduate so soon."
Jian Yue asked: "Why?"
Jiang Yu said: "I want to stay with my master more. I have nowhere else to go except Lingyun Sect."
Jian Yue felt that the child was seriously ill. He thought that if one day he were to hurt his heart personally, it would be better for him to have less filter towards Yue Hua Xian Zun and towards himself.
So Jian Yue said, "You should have your own ambitions. The sect trains disciples to pacify one side. How can you always stay by the side of your master? What's more, all the disciples of Yuehua Immortal Master have to leave after graduation. If you graduate earlier, it will save him trouble, right?"
Maybe this is very true.
Jiang Yu was silent for a moment, then slowly said: "But I don't know where else I can go."
Jian Yue said: "The world is so big, there will always be a good place for you, and if you become powerful in the future, you will have your own territory. You should use your own hands to create a place for yourself instead of staying where you are."
Jian Yue would definitely not say these words when he was the Yuehua Immortal Venerable. Even if he said them, it would go against the character's plot setting. But when he became a disciple of his master, the constraints he faced were not that great.
Jiang Yu obviously listened to him. After looking at Jian Yue, he finally said, "I know. I will find a place for myself."
This child is teachable!
As expected of the male lead!!
Jian Yue was quite satisfied with this apprentice. He thought to himself that he had taught him something, not nothing. He just taught him some inspirational quotes. He said happily, "It's good that you can understand it."
There were bursts of thunder and rain outside. The two had just finished talking when there was a sudden loud noise outside, which was somewhat sharp, accompanied by the sound of wind and rain.
Jian Yue was the first to look outside.
Some chubby disciples said, "It's the sound of a flute asking for help. All Lingyun Sect disciples have it. They are in danger! No, it's raining now, and there may not be anyone over there to save them. We have to go!"
Everyone sat up.
Subconsciously, some people wanted to go out and take a look, because human lives were at stake and there was no time to hesitate.
But when he reached the cave entrance, Jian Yue stopped and said, "There are still children in the cave. What if this is a trick to lure the tiger away from the mountain?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone fell silent for a moment.
Even the audience in the live broadcast room were shocked:
"Fuck, I didn't even think of that."
"In the original novel, many disciples died, and no one paid any attention to these trivial matters."
"Butler Wang really exerted his strength at the critical moment."
"If this child is saved, maybe there will really be changes!"
"How is that possible?" The fat disciple said, "We can't help but rescue them if they are in danger. Besides, why would those evil spirits lure the tiger away from the mountain? If they wanted to kill us, they would just come directly into the cave. Why would they call us out?"
Jian Yue said: "At least one person should be left here, otherwise even if a wild animal comes in, the child will be in danger. Don't forget that she is the only eyewitness."
The fat disciple said with some disdain: "If you don't dare to go, then don't make so many excuses. Then you can stay!"
Jiang Chengqi said, "I will stay with him."
The fat disciple said angrily, "Jiang Chengqi, are you a coward too?! I tell you, if I go out this time, I won't be afraid even if I encounter vengeful spirits. The vengeful spirits are most afraid of the soul-sealing talisman. I was too nervous at night so I didn't remember to prepare it. Now I have prepared the soul-sealing props. Even if I meet them, I am not afraid of them. This is a chance to get points from the vengeful spirits. Don't blame me for not warning you!"
Jiang Chengqi said, "I only care whether there is a way to treat my brother's injury. You can go by yourselves."
Seeing that he couldn't persuade him, the fat disciple asked, "What about the rest of you?"
There are two or three more disciples who will definitely follow them. Jiang Yu stood beside Jian Yue as still as a mountain. Jian Yue said to him, "You go too. I'm afraid they will be in danger without you."
The fat disciple said angrily: "Who are you looking down on?"
Jian Yue didn't even bother to pay attention to them. If it wasn't for the requirement of his main mission, his main mission would have failed if more than half of his disciples were killed or injured. He didn't want to stop those who were seeking their own death.
Jiang Yu didn't say anything, but just said to Jian Yue: "If there is danger, play the flute."
This time, each disciple was given a small flute so that they could blow it directly when in danger.
Jian Yue said: "Don't worry, I know what's going on."
Jiang Yu and the others left. Not long after they left, Jian Yue said to Jiang Chengqi, "Help me draw a soul-sealing formation at the entrance of the cave, and then draw one inside the cave."
Jiang Chengqi was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly began to draw. Most people would not think so much if they were in a hurry, but Jian Yue was very anxious, and Jiang Chengqi was very cooperative. Their soul-sealing formation had just been drawn when there was a sound of whistling mountain wind not far away, and something was coming from a distance and hitting the entrance of the cave. It was a black vengeful spirit, and they bit the soul formation fiercely, opening their bloody mouths and trying to crash in.
"They are really here!" Jiang Chengqi was a little shocked: "How could they really come? Shouldn't they be chasing those disciples outside?"
Jian Yue's eyes darkened and he said, "This was premeditated. Their goal was to kill the children in the cave, not us."
Jiang Chengqi asked, "Then why didn't they just rush into the cave?"
Jian Yue said, "You should have listened to Ah Fei. He is an expert in talisman formations. He had already prepared magic tools when he left. The evil spirits were able to attack at night because you were not prepared. If we were all prepared this time, they might not be able to succeed. But if we all go out this time, then this child..."
Jiang Chengqi immediately said: "This child will die! They want to kill her!"
The two looked at each other. The vengeful spirits outside were angrily hitting the soul-sealing formation. Jian Yue said, "How long can this last?"
Jiang Chengqi said: "Half an hour."
That is, at most an hour. Jian Yue calculated the time and said, "They went to look for someone. It's dangerous outside too. We have to find a way to take the child away from here. Otherwise, they will find a way to get in."
Jiang Chengqi asked: "How to leave?!"
When Jian Yue went back, he had actually discovered long ago that the cave had another exit, but it was too hidden, so he did not explore it. After coming back, Jian Yue asked Jiang Chengqi to carry him on his back and crawl out from a small crack in the rock. Jiang Chengqi followed behind with the child. They didn't know how long they climbed before they reached an underground cave to rest.
When they came out of here, there was only a faint light in the cave. Jian Yue asked Jiang Chengqi to put the child down. He said, "Seal this place with the Soul Sealing Formation and hold on for a while."
Jiang Chengqi nodded.
Jian Yue was checking on the child. To his surprise, the elixir that the original owner brought was really effective. The girl had regained her normal breath. He took some water from his belt and fed it to her dry lips. The child drank some and her lips gradually became moisturized. Under Jian Yue's somewhat nervous gaze, she opened her eyes.
"Are you okay?" Jian Yue whispered, "You are saved."
The girl's eyelashes trembled slightly, and she looked at Jian Yue in confusion, then spoke softly, her voice a little dry: "Daddy...Mom..."
Jian Yue was silent for a moment, then said, "We are also looking for them. Can you tell us what happened at that time? Then, I can help you find them."
The girl panted lightly. She obviously looked very weak, but under Jian Yue's encouraging gaze, she relaxed for a long time, and her childish voice slowly rang out: "There was a group of uncles outside the cave asking for help. The village chief opened the cave door and let them in. They said they were here to save us, but later, later... later when they came in, they suddenly brought in a group of black monsters..."
Jian Yue's eyes sank, and he said, "Do you remember what kind of clothes those uncles who came in wore?"
The girl thought for a moment and then said softly, "Black."
After Jiang Chengqi finished setting up the magic circle, he came back and asked, "The man in black, is he from the demon clan?"
Jian Yue said: "Can demons also transform into human bodies?"
"Of course the demons who have absorbed too much resentment can do it. There is a group of demons living in the main city of the demons." Jiang Chengqi said: "Maybe the demons have come out."
Now things seem to be very clear.
Jiang Chengqi was even so filled with righteous indignation that he was ready to go out and fight the demons to the death!
Jian Yue looked at the girl and asked, "Those uncles said they came to save you, did they tell us who they were?"
The young girl thought about it seriously and said softly, "The uncles... said they were disciples of Lingyun Sect."
Jian Yue and Jiang Chengqi were silent for a moment.
At this moment, the system panel popped up: "The main storyline progress is 45%, please keep up the good work!"
The audience in the live broadcast room were all excited:
“Wow, wow!”
"The second round of the Disciple Competition is really the most crucial."
"This girl really has intelligence."
"The average tasker can't find this little girl, or even protect her."
Because the conditions for finding this girl are too harsh, you must first find the villagers' self-defense place, and then find the cave hidden behind the boulder. Even after entering the cave, you have to find the girl's hiding place. Even if you find it, it won't work. You have to save her, and even if you save her, she has to escape the pursuit of the evil spirits.
After going through layer by layer, it would be difficult to make progress if any link was missing, but Jian Yue managed to make it.
Jiang Chengqi said slowly: "Maybe it's a demon in disguise..."
Jian Yue looked at the girl for a moment and said, "How about a deal?"
The girl looked at Jian Yue with some confusion.
Jian Yue whispered, "Tell me everything you saw truthfully. I will take care of your parents and ensure your safety. You don't have to be so hostile to us. Although we are also from Lingyun Sect, if we wanted to harm you, we would have thrown you into the cave just now, right?"
The thin girl said in a childish voice with grievance: "Xiao Ya doesn't understand what uncle is saying."
"You woke up in the cave." Jian Yue said, "When I was carrying you on my back, I felt that your breathing was not right. When you were talking to me just now, your eyes were always dodging. You were hiding something from me. You said that those men in black said they were from Lingyun Sect, so you must have seen something on them that represented the identity of Lingyun Sect, so you also knew that we were from Lingyun Sect, and you were on guard against us, so you concealed some things and didn't tell me, right?"
His logic was so clear that even Jiang Chengqi beside him was stunned.
Jian Yue continued expressionlessly: "We are not wearing black clothes, and the styles are different, so it must be something we said. What we said did not specifically indicate which sect we belonged to. Let me guess, could it be the sound of the flute?"
Even the girl seemed shocked, and then under Jian Yue's calm gaze, she finally seemed to have gone through a lot of psychological struggles and realized that she really couldn't hide it anymore.
The girl then said, "Among those who tricked the village chief into entering the cave, there was one who brought a flute with him. He played the flute, and when the black monsters killed people, the sound of the flute was heard outside."
Jian Yue and Jiang Chengqi looked at each other, and he said to Jiang Chengqi: "Isn't this the flute that Lingyun Sect used to call for help?"
“I don’t know.” Jiang Chengqi’s face turned pale. It was obvious that his whole world was about to collapse. He said in a panic, “I really don’t know. Before we left, the elders gave everyone this flute and said that this is a flute for calling for help. If you encounter danger, just blow the flute. How should I know?!”
Now, this flute that represents life-saving has become a soul-calling song.
Jian Yue's expression became more serious. He said, "They all followed the sound of the flute just now. If the man in black who massacred the villagers at that time had not left the mountain at all, then the person who played the flute for help..."
After hearing this, Jiang Chengqi's whole body froze!
He looked at Jian Yue almost in disbelief. A terrible guess popped into his mind, making his whole body numb and he almost lost his balance.
"Then those people who went out..." Jiang Chengqi's face turned pale. He tried his best to stop his teeth from chattering before he said, "Aren't they dead?"
