Hearing the man's angry words, Yun Ye's expression straightened and he said, "Hey, brother, what you said is inappropriate. I just told you my past experiences truthfully. I didn't force you to go to Tianchi. Why are you blaming me?"
The man was still furious: "Since you have been to Tianchi, why do you only talk about its beauty? You just downplayed the fatal dangers hidden in Tianchi!"
"Why? Why did you go to Tianchi without any harm, while we went through so much hardship and still suffered such a disaster?"
"First there was an avalanche, then there was an underground fire. My sixteen brothers were either swallowed by the heavy snow or turned into ashes by the underground fire. I, Yetuo, managed to escape and ascend to heaven, but I can only survive by relying on the terrifying magic of the Indian demon monk. Why is this so?"
Yun Ye thought about it and said hesitantly: "Maybe...bad luck?"
When these words were spoken, Yetuo was slightly startled, but then he stopped being angry and laughed instead.
Xu Jingzong, who was beside Yun Ye, also felt his scalp tingling. He seemed to have not expected that under such circumstances, Yun Ye would dare to ridicule this already furious man without restraint.
Among all the people present, only Lin Zhongtian knew that Yun Ye was telling the truth.
As for things like avalanches, it can only be said that Yetuo and others lack common sense, but as for volcanic eruptions, that is just bad luck!
Judging from Yetuo's appearance, he probably inhaled a lot of volcanic ash from the volcanic eruption before escaping, which caused damage to his respiratory tract and lungs. He probably doesn't have much time left.
Yun Ye thought so too. He finally understood why Yetuo invited him to be a guest in this way.
These are the boomerangs that I boasted about in Chang'an before!
Yun Ye sighed in his heart, glanced at Lin Zhongtian beside him, and touched the pistol at his waist, and couldn't help but be certain in his heart.
Fortunately, he met Lin Zhongtian, so even if things went to the worst outcome, he would still be able to fight.
But by then, Xu Jingzong and the foreign girl in his arms would be in danger...
Looking at Yun Ye who seemed to be lost in thought, Yetuo sneered and said grimly: "It seems that Yun Hou is not worried about his situation at all. Could it be that Yun Hou is still counting on the 500 Tang cavalry behind you?"
"To be honest, Lord Yun, the five hundred elite cavalrymen behind you had already returned to Shuofang in accordance with military orders a quarter of an hour ago. I wonder what you have to rely on to dare to chat and laugh in the old nest of a certain family!"
At this point, Yetuo turned his head and looked at Lin Zhongtian beside him, and said lightly: "With your senior brother?"
"Yes, I admit that with your senior brother's martial arts, it would be as easy as taking something out of a bag to kill me."
"But someone has already issued an order that if anyone dies here, the three thousand slave soldiers in Camel City will rush forward."
"When the time comes, even if you have extraordinary abilities, you will still die under the sword!"
Hearing Yetuo's sinister words, Xu Jingzong's heart tightened and he regretted following Yun Ye.
Yun Ye frowned, and couldn't help but put his right hand on his waist, stroking the handle of the pistol.
Only Lin Zhongtian sneered and said calmly: "I have been on the battlefield all my life and have killed countless people, but I have never been threatened. If you don't want to continue chatting, just say it directly, and I will give you a quick death."
"If you still want to continue chatting, then show me your attitude."
"For example, let me first explain who the two people behind the door curtain are..."
Hearing Lin Zhongtian's last words, Yetuo was slightly startled, then looked at the door curtain in silence.
There was silence for a moment behind the door curtain, and then an old voice came out: "As expected of Senior Brother Yun Hou, the son of a master, extraordinary."
"In this case, Master Xuanzang, you can go out now..."
As soon as these words were spoken, Yun Ye stood up suddenly and looked at the door curtain with astonishment on his face.
The door curtain was lifted, and a skinny monk in ragged clothes came out. He placed one hand on his chest, chanted the Buddha's name, and said calmly, "Amitabha Buddha, the world is changing. I don't want to see Yun Hou again in this wasteland. I don't know whether I am happy or sad..."
Yun Ye calmed down and said with a smile: "Master, you are a monk, how can you have so many joys, anger, sorrows, and sorrows? Meeting an old friend in a foreign land can only be a happy event. I wonder if Master can have a drink?"
Seeing Yun Ye calm down quickly and Lin Zhongtian was even calmer, Yetuo couldn't help but frown slightly and said lightly: "Master Xuanzang was met by me in Kangguo. He was asking about the route to Tianzhu. I was curious and happened to be going to the grassland to look for Yun Hou, so I brought him here with me."
"After all, it's better to ask Yun Hou, who knows better, than to ask others for directions..."
Yun Ye ignored Yetuo, invited Xuanzang to his side, looked at him seriously and said, "I wonder if Master's heart for seeking Buddha remains the same after experiencing such hardships?"
Xuanzang put his hands together and paid homage to the Three Treasures: "I once made a great vow that I would never turn back until I obtained the true scriptures. My heart remains the same, and my intention remains the same."
Lin Zhongtian looked at him admiringly and praised: "It seems that Master Xuanzang's Buddhist teachings have made further progress. This is really cause for celebration."
Xuanzang didn't know who Lin Zhongtian was, but when he heard this, his heart moved slightly, and he subconsciously put his hands together and saluted him.
Lin Zhongtian nodded, turned his head and glanced at the door curtain and said, "Where is the other person?" An old voice behind the door curtain said, "I am about to be buried. I am ugly and have a lowly body. There is no need to show up. As for what I want, you will know it as long as you see this thing..."
Before he finished speaking, the door curtain opened a crack, and an old and skinny arm stretched out from it, handing over a jade pendant.
Yetuo stood up, took the jade pendant personally, and presented it to Lin Zhongtian and Yun Ye with both hands.
Yun Ye took it and looked at it, and found that it was full of various lines that he could not understand, which seemed to form three words.
“This is the writing of the Shang Dynasty.”
Lin Zhongtian explained softly.
Yun Ye looked at Lin Zhongtian in surprise, as if he didn't expect that he actually knew oracle bone inscriptions.
The old voice behind the door curtain said slowly: "Does Lord Yun know what the three words above mean?"
Yun Ye frowned, but Lin Zhongtian beside him smiled slightly and said leisurely: "Of course it is...Bai Yujing!"
When these words were spoken, not only Yetuo and Xu Jingzong, but even Yun Ye couldn't help but feel his scalp tingling.
What the hell, there are three words "Bai Yujing" on the jade pendant of the Shang Dynasty, could it be that this weird place he made up really exists? !
The old voice behind the door curtain finally revealed a hint of joy.
"You do know him!"
The old voice asked anxiously, "Where is Bai Yujing? Tell me, from now on, we are even and have nothing to do with each other anymore!"
After finishing speaking, the old voice seemed to be aware of his excitement, and after calming down, he continued: "Your Excellency is indeed from a family of learning. I believe that your and Yun Hou's mentor is also a top scholar, who actually knows that this is the writing of the Shang Dynasty."
"I am now certain that you two brothers know about Baiyujing's affairs."
"Others may think that Baiyujing is indeed as Yun Hou said, harmful but not beneficial, but I know that Baiyujing is beneficial and not harmful."
"I am eighty-three years old this year. For many years, I have been stuck at the threshold of the immortal path and have not made any progress. I really want to go to the immortal land to have a look. I would like to ask you and Yun Hou to help me. As for the reward, how about this Camel City?"
Xu Jingzong stared at Yun Ye and Lin Zhongtian in a daze.
He had seen the magnificence of this Camel City with his own eyes. Its value was undoubtedly worth millions of gold, but the person behind the curtain gave it to Yun Ye so casually, just for a vague address.
At this point, Xu Jingzong had to admit that this was a world he had never encountered before!
Hearing the words of the person behind the curtain, Yun Ye stroked the Shang Dynasty jade pendant in his hand. He couldn't help but raise his head and look at Lin Zhongtian beside him, obviously wanting to hear his opinion.
Lin Zhongtian smiled slightly and said leisurely: "Give up, you don't have the fate of being an immortal, so don't ask for it!"
When these words were spoken, Yun Ye and Xu Jingzong were both shocked.
Xu Jingzong panicked and kept winking at Yun Ye, trying to get him to stop Lin Zhongtian.
The person behind the curtain was also silent for a while, and said in a gloomy tone: "Whether there is a destiny with the immortals is not up to you. You only need to tell me where Baiyujing is, and I will go to verify it myself."
Lin Zhongtian shook his head and sighed, "I'm almost tired of listening to your stories for so long. Since you have nothing else to say, let's end this farce as soon as possible!"
As he spoke, Lin Zhongtian stood up, and streams of air gushed out from the acupoints all over his body, flowing across the surface of his body.
From the outside, it seemed as if Lin Zhongtian was wearing an invisible coat. As his energy surged, it even distorted the air, allowing mortals like Yun Ye and Xu Jingzong to see it with their naked eyes.
“This… this is…”
Yetuo stood up suddenly and looked at Lin Zhongtian with shock and excitement.
Lin Zhongtian ignored the shocked looks of Yun Ye and the others, looked at the door curtain behind Yetuo and said calmly: "How dare you, a mortal, secretly plot against my junior brother Lin, and even threaten him with his life. You really don't know how to live or die!"
"Tian Xiangzi, don't you want to seek the immortals? Well, I will show you what the immortals are doing!"
Before Yetuo had time to be shocked by the actions of the person behind Lin Zhongtian's broken curtain, he saw Lin Zhongtian stretch out his right hand, and streams of air condensed into a translucent air sword in his palm.
The next second, the sword in Lin Zhongtian's hand slashed out diagonally.
The violent force swept through with the air flow, like a hurricane sweeping across the land, tearing apart the walls and curtains with ease, and blowing off the roof and walls of the second floor of the attic, revealing an old face full of shock behind the door curtain.
