90. Meaning
Dinner was spent in an eerie and oppressive atmosphere inside the temple.
After simply eating dry food, Qingyi was already lying down.
Ye Kong, Qingyi, and Yiran are no longer worldly mortals, even Qingyi is only now in the fifth layer, but this ordinary climate change has long been a level that she can ignore. Therefore, even if the location chosen by Ye Kong is facing the temple gate, it looks extremely cold when the night breeze blows, and Qingyi will not have any discomfort.
As for Ye Kong and Yi Ran, Ye Kong's body now has the cultivation of breaking through the sixth layer, even if he sleeps in the ice cellar, he won't feel anything; And Ran, as a corpse cultivator, he is already a symbol of the cathode, not to mention the cold wind, unless he is thrown into a place like the Ice Hell, otherwise he can completely ignore even a place like the Extreme Yin Land.
It's just that their senseless behavior naturally looks extremely strange in the eyes of the other two groups of people in the temple.
The woman on the right saw the appearance of Ye Kong and the others, and snorted coldly for no reason, looking extremely dissatisfied.
This made Ye Kong glance at the other party curiously.
The woman's age is not very old, even if she deliberately disguised herself, and even put on heavy makeup to make herself look more mature, but for Ye Kong, who judges a person's age and does not look at appearance, this disguise seems meaningless.
The girl's real age is supposed to be between fourteen and sixteen.
Although he didn't know much about the situation in the rivers and lakes - after all, in the game setting of "Legend", people like this were just an introduction to the background board, so Ye Kong naturally wouldn't remember these irrelevant contents - but in these years of wandering life, Ye Kong still remembered some judgments about the strength characteristics of the people in the rivers and lakes.
Like the girl in front of her, she is a first-class martial artist.
That is, the so-called blood refining stage in the cultivation world, the true qi has already begun to be generated in the body, and with a little polishing, it is not difficult to promote to innate.
By secular standards, this young girl is definitely a well-deserved genius.
But if you follow the standards of the monastic world......
Ye Kong shook his head slightly, Qingyi is only eleven years old this year, and he has already entered the fifth layer of cultivation, although he still lacks actual combat experience and has not learned fist and foot kung fu, but if the two really fight, Ye Kong is still optimistic about Qingyi.
With just one chance to get close, Qingyi can kill this girl.
As if noticing Ye Kong's eyes, the girl also looked at Ye Kong, but there was a very subtle look of resentment in her eyes.
This only made Ye Kong even more inexplicable.
"Ahem!" The middle-aged man on the right, who was holding two knives, suddenly coughed lightly, and looked at the girl with a reproachful look, with a bit of warning in his eyes.
The girl immediately bowed her head slightly.
The middle-aged man didn't say anything more, but looked at Ye Kong, and then nodded slightly, Ye Kong also smiled, indicating that he didn't take it to heart.
He could see that the middle-aged man in front of him was not the girl's father or relative, but he should be regarded as her elder and had a relatively close relationship with her. And this girl should also respect this middle-aged man, otherwise it is impossible for the other party to make the girl obediently admit her mistake with a warning look - it is not fear or other emotions, but from the bottom of her heart to realize her mistake.
This discovery made Ye Kong look at the four people on the left with some curiosity.
Soon, Ye Kong found that among the four people on the left, there was also a young man in disguise, who was also not very old, about fifteen years old, but he wanted to dress himself up as eighteen or nineteen years old, which was similar to the situation of the woman.
After discovering this, Ye Kong paid a little more attention to observing, and also found a young man's elder among the four people on the left.
However, this elder should be his father, or a blood relative.
Interesting.
Ye Kong chuckled inwardly.
Because he has discovered that both teenagers and girls have a very obvious thing in common, and that is that they have knives in their weapons.
The boy is a lancet, and the maiden is the short knife pinned behind her.
In the same way, the elders around the two teenagers are also used to knives: the elders of the teenagers are the same lancets as the teenagers; And the girl's elders are two double knives - this is a knife weapon that needs to be customized, which usually looks no different from a knife, but if necessary, you can directly divide this knife into two long knives with thin blades by disassembling the dark ring in it, which is considered a Qimen weapon.
This is a very clever covert method: no matter what the situation, the middle-aged man can use both knives in his hands.
Obviously, he has a very strong belief in his dual sword martial arts.
In addition, there is another possibility, that is, his real killer weapon is not a double sword martial art, but a single sword martial art. This double-sword act is only to play the role of confusing others—in a sense, the worldly world is much more dangerous and cruel than the monastic world.
Although he didn't know what these people were trying to do, Ye Kong had no intention of meddling in his affairs, so after putting Yi Ran in charge of the vigil, he himself closed his eyes and rested against the desk.
If it was a ghost cultivation state, Ye Kong naturally didn't need to sleep, but when he was attached to the physical body, he would become more normal, and he needed to eat and sleep, and even relieve himself. But fortunately, he is a corpse cultivator, and he doesn't need to sleep at all, so if he is in charge of the vigil, then it is safe, because he will not be tired at all, and there will be no possibility of mental relaxation.
If these two groups of people in the temple dared to fight them, then Ye Kong dared to guarantee that he would only see corpses all over the ground when he woke up the next day.
However, Ye Kong's indifferent attitude naturally caused people on both sides to be dissatisfied.
Seeing that Ye Kong looked like he was already asleep, the young man on the left finally couldn't help but muttered to himself: "I can still fall asleep at this time, I'm really confident." ”
"Xin'er." The middle-aged man who was recognized by Ye Kong as having a blood relationship between the two said in a low voice.
The young man turned his head, his face looked very ugly, and he was still muttering something, but his elder didn't hear it clearly, so he simply pretended not to know. After all, he is still very confident in his own strength, and feels that since he can't hear it, then others must not hear it either.
It's just that if you talk about hearing alone, Ye Kong really doesn't know how many streets to throw off the other party.
So the young man's scolding words, Ye Kong listened to them word for word.
But he didn't bother to bother with the other party, he was just a little favored little kid, so he felt that everything had to be done according to his own theory.
There was the sound of light footsteps.
He stood up very faithfully, and the momentum of the vigorous movement instantly shocked everyone in the temple.
"Suddenly!" Ye Kong suddenly opened his eyes and shouted in a deep voice.
Yi Ran, who was already about to make a move, stopped.
But this powerful momentum still frightened the girl who tried to get close to the place, and she didn't dare to move at all. For a split second, she almost faced the fear of death, a threat she hadn't seen since she had been nearly killed for the first time.
The girl's gaze was horrified.
Behind the girl, four middle-aged men also stood up suddenly, all holding their sidearms in their hands. Especially the girl's elders, who rushed to the girl's side with an arrow and protected the girl behind him.
On the other side, the four people on the left also got up, each holding the weapon in his hand and entering a state of alert.
It's just that unlike the girl's side, the four people on the left took a few steps back in unison after glancing at the situation in the temple, indicating that they did not mean to be involved in this troubled water. Seeing the actions of these people on the left, the faces of the people on the right relaxed slightly.
Ye Kong was very keen to capture this reaction attitude of both sides.
He knew that the two sides should not know each other, but it was obvious that they both knew what the reason for coming to this temple was.
Only Ye Kong, I don't know what is special here.
And in his memory, there seems to be nothing special about this temple.
"My brother is a little scared, I'm embarrassed." Ye Kong hurriedly got up, and while comforting Yi Ran to sit down, he also said with a smile.
Qingyi had also been awakened at this time, looking at the surrounding situation a little blankly. She didn't know what was going on, but the sudden burst of killing intent and mighty momentum of Qi Ran couldn't hide it from her, not to mention that they were so close to each other, almost as soon as Yan Ran moved, Qing Yi had already woken up.
"Excuse me, what's the matter?" After Ye Kong finished calming her, he turned his head to look at the girl again.
She was holding a straw mat in her hand, and her whole person looked a little embarrassed, obviously not expecting such a situation to happen.
But after all, it is a child of the rivers and lakes, this embarrassing situation quickly disappeared, she just glanced at Ye Kong and Qingyi, and then handed the straw mat in her hand to Qingyi, and said coldly: "This is my backup, it is still clean." It's cold here, and if you sleep directly on the floor like this, you'll get cold. ”
Qingyi didn't pick it up, but blinked her eyes and looked at the girl with some curiosity.
Ye Kong knew what Qing Yi was thinking, stretched out his hand to take the straw mat, and then said with a smile: "It's my consideration step to be an older brother, thank you, little sister." …… Qingyi, this is given to you by your sister, you have to say thank you. ”
"Thank you, thank you." Qingyi took the straw mat and lowered her head, although she couldn't see her face, she could still know what she looked like at this time by looking at her red ears.
However, the girl didn't have the heart to pay attention to this at this time, but stared at Ye Kong: "Little sister? Sister? You ......"
Ye Kong smiled and didn't intend to answer her words.
But just as he was about to prevaricate a few words, his brows couldn't help frowning.
Because he felt that about three or four hundred meters outside the temple, a monk had appeared, and the other party's target was very obvious, that is, this temple.
