(80) Curiosity
"What? Afraid I'll hurt you? So don't dare to drink? The old man smiled again and said, "You wonder why this bundle of firewood has not been used until now?" ”
"The younger generation feels that a lot of things are strange." Yan Moying didn't hide anything.
"Haha, I don't use this stove very often, but I only use it a few times a while. I did this deliberately that day in the dead woods, on the one hand, to leave something in your hands, and on the other hand, to test you. Your kid is really good-hearted, understands the urgency of the Zhou people, and has good patience! ”
"Leave something in my hands?" Yan Moying said strangely.
"Yes, with this bundle of firewood stained with your mysterious energy, I can probably know when you came to me."
Because the firewood passed through Yan Moying's hand and attached his Xuan Qi, this firewood can be said to be connected with Yan Moying, and the old man can calculate Yan Moying's situation through firewood.
Yan Moying was a little confused: "Could it be that if something that passes through my hand reaches someone else, others may speculate about my situation through that thing?" Isn't my situation under the control of someone else all the time? ”
"Don't worry, others can't do this, and you can't use anything else, only those firewood. Did you see that dead wood forest again? Hehe, it's long gone! ”
"Huh? Gone? Don't...... Could it be that even that dead wood forest was arranged by your predecessors? Yan Moying asked.
"Clever! Otherwise, if you want to chop firewood, where is there a dead wood forest waiting for you to get firewood? If those are ordinary firewood, naturally they can't attach your Xuan Qi, and only the firewood in the dead wood forest that I have arranged can be attached to your Xuan Qi. Even if the firewood with your Xuan Qi is taken away by others, others will not be able to know that there is Xuan Qi on it, let alone speculate about your condition. The old man explained.
"Dare to ask when did the seniors know that I was going to chop wood?" Yan Moying was very curious.
"Well, this is when you're not far from that dead wood. At that time, I felt from a distance that you seemed to have a mysterious qi in you, and you might be the one who could save the future of Jingyin Kingdom, but I couldn't be sure, so I secretly used a spell to probe your situation, but I didn't expect it to be undetected, but I found out that what you were thinking at the time was to go and chop wood immediately, so what ...... Haha, there is that dead wood forest. ”
"That junior should be grateful for the help of the senior that day! But...... But why did the predecessors have such a magical spell that could ......"
Before Yan Moying could finish speaking, the old man interrupted him: "Don't ask me why I can do this, let alone who I am." I will tell you what I can say and what I should say, and I will not get an answer from me no matter how much you ask. ”
"Oh...... The younger generation understands......" Yan Moying said. He hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Those dangers that I encountered within five miles of Guiying Peak...... Can seniors know in advance? ”
"Those, you ask? Haha, of course I know! The old man smiled triumphantly.
Seeing the old man's smile at the moment, Yan Moying felt inexplicable and asked, "Do you know why they put me to death?" I have no grudge against them in the past, and I have no enmity in the near future. ”
"Who is going to put you to death? Aren't you alive and well now! I'm testing you, too! The old man replied.
