Chapter 237: A Sudden Extra Burden
"What happened to the Bitter Host?"
Ye Kui was silent when he heard half of it, so he hesitated for a while and began to ask the bitter host opposite.
"Subsequently, the spies of the enemy city assassinated the city lord and everyone in the restaurant who came to the restaurant, and before that, the city gate was breached, civil strife broke out in the city, and the defense line in the city completely collapsed, and the slaughter of the city began.
At that time, the young and old monk, who was not yet a monk, had already fallen into a coma on the spot, and it was precisely because of this that the Bitter Sorrow Lord became one of the hundreds of people in the city who survived, and the parents and relatives in the palace did not escape the catastrophe."
The host of bitterness calmly told all this, and Ye Kui couldn't say anything for a while, and then the host of bitterness continued to talk about himself.
"When the old monk saw the last scene in the house, the snow on the high wall on the side of the road just slipped to the back of his neck, and then the old monk suddenly came to his senses, and the conscious old monk realized that those were just illusions that appeared in a few breaths.
As before, the old monk at this time was actually preparing to carry the dirty and smelly monk who had fainted in the cold and snow, but the difference was that at this time, the dirty and smelly monk's body was already cold and stiff, and he had no life.
It was also at this time that the young old monk heard the filthy and smelly monk who had been frozen to death with his lips slightly open and said weakly:
The Buddha will die, the disaster will come to the world, and the flame will be extinguished again, who will accept his thoughts?
Donor, would you like to take refuge in my Buddha?"
The voice of the host of bitterness has been broken, and Ye Kui, who was listening from the sidelines, knows the final ending of the story, after all, the young brother in the current story of the host of bitterness is already the current host of Zen Heart Temple.
"Host, haven't you thought about refusing?"
Ye Kui was silent for a while before asking.
"Ye Xiaoyou asked well, at that time, the young old monk really didn't agree to the request that the voice came from the dirty and smelly monk's corpse at the first time, after all, the young old monk didn't know that it was the Buddha's words at that time.
Then the young old monk first begged the voice to stop the imminent massacre of the city, but the other party did not respond, and then the young old monk could not help but curse the corpse of the filthy monk with foul language, and in the end it was still fruitless."
"So... Isn't the presiding officer of the Bitter Tribulation now the presiding officer of the Zen Heart Temple?"
Ye Kui was a little puzzled, why didn't the host of bitterness directly agree to the thing that the Buddha said in the corpse of the dirty monk.
"Ye Xiaoyou, in fact, the young old monk did choose to agree to become a Buddhist believer, and then the Buddha told the young old monk that it can't do anything now, and it can't stop what is about to happen.
After that, the Buddha's words also indicated that the next death disaster in the Tianque Continent would slowly eat away at the fire of life, and the Tianque Continent would be chaotic, or it would proceed with an unstoppable slow momentum.
The reason why the Buddha asked the young old monks to worship in the Buddha Gate was to let the current old monks try to gather all the forces on the Tianque Continent and try to delay the occurrence of the above things.
Ye Xiaoyou, let's put it this way, the current Tianque Continent is like a person suffering from an unknown disease, it seems that nothing can save it, so it can only wait for death, but some of the organs in its body, that is, us, are still trying to continue to function."
It was already evening when the host of distress said this, and at this time, the voice of the host of distress also dropped a little.
"Host Bitterness, do other large, medium, and small immortal sects know about what you told me just now?"
"The storm is coming, anyone or anything will sense something, the difference is just more and less, some Xianmen sects are preparing to face these in their own way, of course, there are also trying to unite and face what will happen in the future.
Ye Kui, you must remember not to tell others about today's events, so as not to cause more confusion."
The host of distress said seriously.
"Yes, the juniors will keep their mouths shut, but why did you tell the juniors this secret about the future of the Tianque Continent?"
"It's all Buddha's words."
"Bitter host, yours is a little..."
Originally, what Ye Kui wanted to say was that the burden that the bitter host suddenly shared
It was a little sinking, but when Ye Kui thought of the actions of Linjiang Longjun and the Bitter Host to protect him secretly, he felt that he was a little sorry for the two of them if he retreated.
"Bitter host, junior begs you to tell the truth, did you have long expected that the Dragon Monarch would find me? Or is it actually that you have already known from the Buddha's words that I may have played a small role?"
"Ye Xiaoyou, the old monk didn't know what you said in advance, at first it was Long Jun who came to Zen Heart Temple to find the old monk, and then asked the old monk to help you block some troubles, and then it was Long Jun who took the initiative to slowly tell the old monk about Ye Xiaoyou.
As for the Buddha's words related to Ye Xiaoyou, they only appeared in the old monk's mind a few months ago, and this is what the old monk wants to say, if Ye Xiaoyou doesn't believe it, he can refuse the old monk's things, and then turn around and leave the Zen Heart Temple."
The host of Bitterness said this, and also made a double ten-in-ten gesture to show his sincerity.
"Host of Bitterness, the juniors will take another thing with them before they leave."
"Haha, Ye Xiaoyou take it."
The bitter host smiled and handed the Buddha Meaning True Yan Cup in his hand to Ye Kui.
"Host of Suffering, do you just take it directly?"
Ye Kui looked at one of the treasures of Buddhism that had been turned from a white porcelain bowl into a Buddha's true flame bowl handed over by the host of suffering, and Ye Kui's hand that he had just stretched out immediately took it back.
"The old monk forgot the key thing, Ye Xiaoyou got closer, and the old monk will teach you how to make the Buddha's true flame lamp change between the white porcelain bowl and the lamp.
However, the old monk feels that this is not enough, Ye Xiaoyou, you can also write down the method of using the Buddha's Meaning True Flame Cup, and you may be able to use it after you completely repair the Buddha's Meaning True Flame Lamp in the future."
"Then the junior might as well be respectful."
This time Ye Kui is not as shirky as before, after listening to a series of things said by the host of suffering, the current Ye Kui feels that he really needs more strength, even if it is possible and temporary.
After Ye Kui left the Zen Heart Temple, the host of Ku'ai returned to the hall where the Buddha's meaning was placed just now, and then folded his hands and bowed to the big Buddha in the center of the hall.
"The disciple is useless, he has failed the Buddha's words, and now I only hope that Ye Xiaoyou can successfully restore the Buddha's True Flame Cup, so that it is possible for you to come back."
The bitter presiding officer got up and left the main hall after speaking.
"The current Buddha's True Flame Lamp is really just an ordinary lamp used to illuminate the road at night, as the Bitter Leader said, and it is impossible to use it to meet the enemy for the time being."
Ye Kui, who was standing above the clouds and hurrying, took out the white porcelain bowl, and then according to the method taught by the host of suffering, the white porcelain bowl in his hand turned into a Buddha-meaning true flame cup with Buddha flame burning in the center.
"This golden Buddha Flame will not cause harm to me, no, it should be said that the current Buddha Intention True Flame will not cause harm to any monk and demon cultivator."
Ye Kui felt a little pity, but if it weren't for the fact that the Buddha Meaning True Yan Cup in his hand hadn't been repaired as before, then the Bitter Host wouldn't have asked me to take this Buddhist treasure so simply.
After a while, Ye Kui could already see the river standing above the clouds and couldn't see the end of the river clearly.
At this time, Ye Kui arrived in Linjiang, after all, when Ye Kui was in Zenxin Temple before, he also confirmed that he would come to Linjiang Dragon Palace again, and the host of bitterness also thought that Ye Kui should come to Linjiang.
"I don't know if Long Jun will return to Linjiang Dragon Palace at this time, maybe I should have asked the Bitter Host just now when he would come."
After Ye Kui thought about it, he dived into the water, and with Ye Kui's current realm, he could move freely in the water without the help of foreign objects.
"Who's coming! This is the Linjiang Dragon Palace, and it is strictly forbidden to trespass!"
"Don't make a noise, the monk on the other side looks familiar, oh, yes... It's Mr. Ye, it's Longjun's honored guest, Mr. Ye, please."
Although the previous Linjiang Aquarium guard didn't know Ye Kui, another Linjiang Aquarium with a little more experience remembered who Ye Kui was, so Ye Kui was quickly brought into the outer area of Linjiang Dragon Palace by this Linjiang Aqua Tribe.
"Dragon Monarch, is he back in the Dragon Palace?"
"Mr. Ye, according to the previous situation, Long Jun should still be busy outside, and it is estimated that he will not be able to return to the Dragon Palace to rest until night, and now that it is approaching night, another Linjiang Water Tribe's escort has gone to report that Mr. Ye, the Prime Minister of the Turtle, has come to Linjiang Dragon Palace.
After that, Mr. Ye can wait in the Dragon Palace for a while, and the Dragon Monarch will be back soon."
After the Linjiang Water Tribe's guards finished speaking, Ye Kui also followed the other party to the main hall where Linjiang Longjun entertained guests.
Ye Kui found that there was an elderly Linjiang Aquatic Tribesman with a long eight-character beard who had been waiting here for a long time, and Ye Kui knew that the elderly Linjiang Aquatic Tribes were the turtle prime minister in the Linjiang Dragon Palace.
"Mr. Ye, the old turtle has been waiting for a long time again, please come here."
Gu Cheng said respectfully to Ye Kui.
"The ghost prime minister is polite, don't be too public, just arrange a quiet little place."
When Ye Kui came to Linjiang Dragon Palace before, he was arranged to eat and drink alone in a spacious hall, and also let a bunch of Linjiang Water Tribe dancers and maids stay in the main hall, so now Ye Kui can be regarded as a long memory, so he specially instructed Prime Minister Gui.
Ye Kui followed the other party to a room where guests could eat and drink quietly.
Then the ghost prime minister left the room, leaving Ye Kui alone to stay in it, originally the turtle prime minister also left a few Linjiang water tribe maids to entertain Ye Kui, but Ye Kui directly refused.
Just after Ye Kui had just eaten a few bites of food, he was stopped by a voice.
"Mr. Ye, are you here?"
After Linjiang Longjun's daughter Longnu Yunxin finished speaking, she pushed the door directly without knocking on the door, and then saw Ye Kui eating at the table.
"Princess Yunxin hasn't seen her for a long time, do you want to eat some together? Remember to close the door."
Ye Kui didn't stand up directly to greet the other party after seeing the dragon girl Yunxin, and invited the other party to sit down and eat together very casually.
"This palace has just returned to Linjiang Dragon Palace, and then I learned about Ye Kui from Prime Minister Guicheng, and I happen to be a little hungry, so let's just take a look."
After closing the door of the room, the dragon girl Yunxin also sat down on the stool beside Ye Kui very unceremoniously, after all, this is her home, she must eat if she wants.
If Linjiang Longjun was here at this time, then he would definitely say that the dragon girl Yunxin should have some of the reserved nature that a woman should have, and the princess of the dignified Linjiang Dragon Palace would eat and drink alone with a man in a small room so casually.
"Ye Kui, you can be regarded as coming, taking advantage of the few days when the mother-in-law and her sisters at home are gathering in other rivers, immediately change places to drink with Benjun!"
Linjiang Longjun was just the same as the Dragon Girl Yunxin just now, and after speaking, he pushed the door directly and entered, and then saw Ye Kui and Dragon Girl Yunxin who were toasting at the table in the room.
"Dragon-kun."
"Father!"
"How do you two... It's okay, Ye Kui, Xin'er, let's eat and drink in a bigger place."
When Linjiang Longjun walked into the house, Ye Kui behaved normally, while the dragon girl Yunxin was a little worried about being reprimanded by Linjiang Longjun, but in the end, Linjiang Longjun directly decided to have a big meal with the three of them.
"Princess Yunxin, Dragon Monarch, why is he like this?"
"Mr. Ye, this palace is also very curious about why my father can see it so well?"
"It's been less than ten days since I last saw each other and it became like this, I think Long Jun might have encountered something that made him feel depressed, so he dragged me to drink as soon as they met, and brought your daughter with him."
"Mr. Ye, you're right, in the past, my father didn't allow this palace to meet with other men alone in the room and drink with you casually like now, to be honest, this is the first time I've seen my father like this."
Ye Kui and Dragon Maiden Yunxin, who were following behind Linjiang Longjun, kept muttering.
Soon, Ye Kui, Dragon Girl Yunxin, and Linjiang Longjun came to a large hall, where the table was already full of all kinds of delicacies.
"Ye Kui, Xin'er, you two sit down, the rest all retreat without the order of Benjun
The others must be allowed to enter the main hall."
Linjiang Longjun said, and the maids of the Linjiang Water Tribe, who were in charge of pouring the wine, and the dancing girls of the Linjiang Water Tribe, quickly left the main hall.
"Long-kun, have you encountered something bad these days?"
When Ye Kui, Linjiang Longjun, and Dragon Girl Yunxin were left in the main hall, he spoke.
"Now Ben Jun doesn't want to mention those troubles, just eat some casually, and then Ye Kui, you and Ben Jun will have a good time, Xin'er, you can do whatever you want, and Xin'er, you remember, don't tell your mother about drinking, otherwise Ben Jun will be scolded by your mother again."
"Yes, Father."
Dragon Maiden Yunxin immediately replied.
When the three of them ate about the same, the situation changed, and the dragon girl Yunxin didn't expect these two to be like this suddenly.
Ye Kui and Linjiang Longjun started drinking at the same time, and after Ye Kui and Linjiang Longjun opened the wine jar, they raised it and poured it into their mouths.
"You two—"
Dragon Girl Yunxin didn't know what to say, Ye Kui and Linjiang Longjun had already drunk several jars of wine, and not only did the two of them not meet each other or say a few words, they kept drinking with their heads bored.
"You can drink it, right? The amount of alcohol in the main palace is also first-class."
After thinking so, the dragon girl Yunxin also followed Ye Kui's example and opened the wine jar, and then raised it to his mouth and drank it, and the dragon girl Yunxin drank a whole jar.
"That's it, come again!"
At this time, the dragon girl Yunxin still couldn't feel the meaning of Ye Kui and her father Wang Linjiang Longjun drinking like this, after all, the current dragon girl Yunxin didn't have any troubles worth her scratching her head and pondering, and she naturally wouldn't understand the effect of drinking stuffy wine at will.
Unconsciously, the thousands of jars of wine in the main hall were all drunk by the three of them, and for the first time, Ye Kui and Linjiang Longjun did not take the initiative to use spiritual power or demonic power to eliminate the strength of the wine, and the dragon girl Yunxin had already fallen asleep on the table.
And this dragon girl Yunxin also put a wine jar on the table as a cushion for her upper body.
"Dragon-kun, wine... The wine is gone."
Ye Kui said to Linjiang Longjun with some nonsense.
"It's a trivial matter, Ye Kui, you kid hurry up and take out those Suikou fruit wines that you have in your private collection, before... The fruit wine you gave me earlier, I have already drunk a jar of wine."
Linjiang Longjun also said with some drunkenness.
"Dragon-kun, are you... But the body will make plans, and after drinking it in advance, there will be a reason to continue to rub my Ye Kui's good wine, right? I'm not ashamed, don't be ashamed, don't be embarrassed to say that it's people like you, hiccup~"
Ye Kui, who was slightly drunk, also burped.
"Heh... Hehe, that's right now, in normal times, Benjun... Benjun must give you some great long memories for the kid, it's really not big or small.
Well? Why is Xin'er lying here holding a wine jar? Ye Kui! Did you trick Benjun's daughter into coming here? Wow, wait, we're not done!"
Linjiang Longjun seems to be so drunk that he forgot some things, it seems that this time Linjiang Longjun has no intention of offsetting the strength of the wine at all.
"Dragon Monarch, you should pour more wine in your brain to sober up a little."
Ye Kui didn't hesitate at all, and took out the only remaining more than 1,000 jars of Suikou fruit wine in his space ring.
"Ha, Ye Kui, you hairy boy who has no manners, these accounts will be settled with you later, and there are not many private wines on this gentleman."
Linjiang Longjun also took out more than a thousand jars of wine as he spoke.
So Ye Kui and Linjiang Longjun drank wine again without saying anything.
In the end, Ye Kui, Linjiang and Longjun were also drunk and fell asleep on the table like Dragon Girl Yunxin.
It wasn't until the next morning that the dragon girl Yunxin, who had slept until she woke up naturally, opened her eyes and saw that only herself and Ye Kui, who was reading a certain book, were left in the main hall, and Linjiang Longjun seemed to have left here.
"Mr. Ye, has my father left the Dragon Palace again?"
"Long Jun said that he didn't sleep well here, so he has already gone to his lodging to lie down."
Ye Kui put away his hand as soon as he said that
The books looked at the empty wine jars all over the hall, and then Ye Kui's eyes deliberately looked at the wooden wine barrels and stayed for a while, his eyes full of reluctance.
"Hee-hee, Mr. Ye, what's wrong with you? Could it be that all those wooden barrels are yours? Hongu seems to have drunk a lot last night."
Dragon Girl Yunxin laughed evilly.
"No, the ones you drank were given to Long Jun by me, and then Long Jun took them out and drank them together, and then the ones I saw were the only Sui Kou fruit wine left on my body, and I knew that I had secretly left hundreds of barrels."
Ye Kui replied to Dragon Girl Yunxin with a little pity, but he was quickly relieved.
"Princess Yunxin, can you take me for a walk around the Linjiang Dragon Palace?"
"Ah, of course you can, but you wait here for a while, Bengu will go to change his clothes, and he will come back soon, and the smell of alcohol on this body is a little heavy."
"Is there one?"
Ye Kui sniffed the clothes on his body after questioning, and then Ye Kui felt that the smell of wine was not so obvious, but it was better to change.
As a result, Ye Kui, who had changed his clothes after a short while, waited outside the main hall for half an hour before he saw the dragon girl Yunxin walking quickly from other corners.
"I'm sorry Mr. Ye, just now Bengong couldn't help but change his clothes after taking a bath, so I delayed a little time, Bengong didn't let you wait too long, Mr. Ye, right?"
Dragon Girl Yunxin explained to Ye Kui with a guilty face.
"It's okay, just wait for a pot of tea, Princess Yunxin, we can send it out."
After thinking about it, Ye Kui decided that it was better not to dwell on this matter.
"Isn't it a cup of tea? That's it, Mr. Ye, let's go here, and this palace will take you to see the unique beauty in the Linjiang Dragon Palace."
After the dragon girl Yunxin finished, she walked quickly in front of Ye Kui.
"I hope I can feast my eyes on it."
Ye Kui immediately followed the dragon girl Yunxin.
After arriving at the place, Ye Kui found that the dragon girl Yunxin had taken him to an area surrounded by a coral forest.
"Princess Yunxin, have there been some powerful monks or demon cultivators visiting the Dragon Monarch in the Linjiang Dragon Palace recently? Or did Long Jun invite anyone to Linjiang Dragon Palace as a guest?"
After Ye Kui made sure that no one was eavesdropping around, he directly asked Dragon Girl Yunxin about these things.
"Mr. Ye, if you have other questions, it's fine, but now I'm asking these questions..."
Even the dragon girl Yunxin didn't answer Ye Kui's question immediately, but deliberately paused for a while.
"It's me who crossed the line, and I hope Princess Yunxin will forgive me, in fact, I just think that Long Jun was in a really bad mood last night, so I asked so directly."
Ye Kui also found that the question asked by an outsider was indeed more straightforward.
"Mr. Ye, you misunderstood, it's better for you to finish talking about it first, the questions that Mr. Ye asked just now are not very clear in this palace, some time ago and recently, my father and his wife left Linjiang Dragon Palace to go to other places except for taking time to accompany his mother.
Then there is the matter of being a guest, and during this period, no one came to visit his father in the Linjiang Dragon Palace, and his father also spread the news that he does not have time to meet in person for the time being."
The dragon girl Yunxin didn't deliberately hide Ye Kui, but also told what she knew.
"Hearing you say this, Long Jun is still quite busy, could it be that it's all because of me? If that's the case, then the favor I owe to Long Jun won't be so easy to pay off."
Ye Kui temporarily attributed the main reason why Linjiang Longjun was busy everywhere on himself, no matter what, Ye Kui felt that his affairs must have also made Linjiang Longjun waste a lot of his mind.
"Mr. Ye, do you mean to ask your father to help you do something?"
"Princess Yunxin, I don't know how to explain this matter to you, and I will tell you as soon as I understand it myself in the future."
Ye Kui was right, the things that Linjiang Longjun secretly pulled the host of distress to do were all hidden from Ye Kui, and Ye Kui only knew some bits and pieces here.
