Chapter 372 - Hold your ground
The night rain is miserable, and the bones are cold.
The sound of gold and iron clashing was completely swallowed up by the sound of rain.
The cold light of the forest has become the remaining light in the night.
There is also a light that comes from the swamp and dense forest, the eyes like night owls.
Others in the jungle?
Yes.
Moreover, it is Jiang Yichen, who is famous in the name of "Killer Night Stalker".
Jiang Yichen came here not long ago, only a little earlier than Egg and the others.
Maybe his goal was too small, or maybe he came quietly, and he had already cultivated the "sting" given by Han Wuyue into three percent of the fire, so he didn't become the prey of those ten black-clothed people.
At this moment, he stared closely at the confrontation between the two sides in the rainy night, and he also saw Mei Huaijin who was gradually losing his blood under the reflection of the sword light and sword.
If it was usual, of course, he would think that he was still familiar with Mei Huaijin and the eggs, and came to help.
But for now, he stood still, without the slightest intention of making a move.
Although today is the second day of the third month of March, in a few hours it will be the third day of the third month of March, an important day for the covenant of flowers from all over the world in Kyushu.
And his current identity is the Black Impermanence of the Nether Cult.
However, the Netherworld Sect came to the aid of Buji Island, which has close ties with the Tushi Gang, and it may not be impossible to say.
After all, the Netherworld Sect and the Tushi Gang are allies, so the allies of the allies can naturally be considered allies.
Moreover, Pinghai County has a lot of eyes and ears at present, but there are not many people who will appear here at this time.
Even if you stand up, you won't fall into the hands of others.
It's just that Jiang Yichen is waiting.
Wait for the one who should make the move first.
Is there anyone else hiding in the shadows besides him?
Of course.
At least Jiang Yichen thinks that there is one more person who should appear here.
So, why did Jiang Yichen himself appear here?
It all started this evening.
After visiting the Chrysanthemum Garden more than ten days ago, Jiang Yichen went all the way south and came to Pinghai County to join the Netherworld Church.
In the meantime, in addition to taking the time to secretly study "stunning", Jiang Yichen was busy almost all the time.
On the one hand, he contributed to the Netherworld's Sect, and on the other hand, he carefully paid attention to the news from all sides, constantly integrating and sorting out the known information.
As more and more pieces of the puzzle are obtained, he also gets closer and closer to the truth.
He gradually saw the light of day, and found that for more than a year, Luo Piaoling had been playing a big game of chess, and the number of people involved in the chess game was far greater than he thought.
Playing chess is naturally not a matter of one side, there should be opponents.
And this pair of players has been hiding behind the scenes so far, and tomorrow is the perfect time to find out.
The closer to the truth, the more difficult it is for Jiang Yichen's thoughts to calm down.
Because this chess game was already full of blood and gore only in the foreshadowing stage, he could imagine what kind of never-ending battle it would be as the game gradually unfolded.
The more he thought about it, the more he began to worry, and he began to feel more troubled.
He had to find a quiet place and drink two glasses of wine in silence.
Although alcohol can numb people's minds, it can also clear people's minds sometimes.
Especially for a person who has a very poor amount of alcohol, two glasses of wine are enough to get him drunk and sleep all night, and when he wakes up tomorrow morning, his thoughts will be extremely clear and his judgment will be accurate.
Jiang Yichen touched into a small wine shop.
But at this time, as long as it is in Pinghai County, as long as there is a house, there will be no shortage of people.
There were only four tables and chairs in the room, three of which were already full.
There was only one left, with only two people seated, and two empty seats.
Jiang Yichen felt that his luck was not bad.
But when the guests who came in, after seeing the only two seats, they either turned around and left, or ordered a drink, and then stood and finished drinking.
It's as if there are dense needles growing on these two positions, and if you sit down, even if you don't die, you will be crippled.
The shopkeeper of the wine store was helpless when he saw this situation.
Although he didn't recognize the tall black-robed man on the table and chair.
But the petite black-robed man had a cute smiling mask on his face, and no one really didn't recognize who it was.
Jiang Yichen is no exception.
After all, except for the smiling Maitreya, no one dares to hang a mask of Maitreya Buddha in this stormy time.
Because the smiling Maitreya came here to drink and eat, it was inevitable that he would take off his mask slightly and show his mouth, so no one dared to take a second look at this table.
Jiang Yichen saw that this person was indeed a smiling Maitreya, and he also saw that the person next to him was the Shadow Buddha, and he also knew that the two of them had just arrived in a hurry from the extreme west of Zhongzhou.
At that time, Jiang Yichen's mind was extremely confused, and after seeing why no one dared to sit in a vacant seat, he asked for a small pot of wine and a few dishes and sat down directly.
When the shopkeeper saw it, he was secretly surprised at first, but after a while, he was overjoyed.
For people who do business, as long as they can earn money, it will always be happy.
When the other guests saw this, they first exclaimed in a low voice, but after looking at the new young man several times, they did not dare to talk about it again.
Because many people have recognized that this young man is the new Black Impermanence of the Nether Sect.
Jiang Yichen was only a little polite to the smiling Maitreya, then closed his eyes and waited for the shopkeeper's snacks.
is not only tired of speaking, but also worried that in front of a master like the smiling Maitreya, too many words will be lost, and disaster will come out of the mouth.
The smiling Maitreya seemed to see through his thoughts, and he didn't care.
After finishing his meal with the Shadow Buddha, he got up and left.
"The weather looks good today, the day is setting, and the sky is still clear. ”
"Yes, I hope Ming'er is still like this. ”
"That's not accurate, maybe after the sun sinks, it won't be able to suppress the torrential rain, and tonight it will wash the flat sea. ”
"Heh, fortunately, we came in advance, we already have a place to stay, if we only come today, I'm afraid tonight will not only drink the northwest wind. ”
"Maybe there are still people on the way, if they come from somewhere else, it's fine, if they take the road in the Clear Water Valley, if it rains, even the horses will leave people behind. ”
The smiling Maitreya and the Shadow Buddha said as they walked.
The voices of the two were low and hoarse, and everyone in the wine shop was saying that the weather was not taken seriously.
Jiang Yichen drank to his lips, but he didn't drink it, he always felt that those words were said to him.
Once people have thoughts, they will not think about tea and dinner.
Jiang Yichen really couldn't drink wine, after all, he didn't like wine.
And the words spoken by the smiling Maitreya and the Shadow Buddha were like magic sounds lingering in his mind, lingering.
After several struggles, he finally didn't touch the wine, asked the shopkeeper for more dishes, and after he was full, he headed for Qingshui Valley.
According to the smiling Maitreya, he did not ride a horse.
So, he came to the Clear Water Valley almost silently.
When the rain began to fall, he believed that the smiling Maitreya had deliberately led him here.
When he saw Egg, Mei Huaijin and others appear, the horror in his heart was indescribable.
Did the smiling Maitreya know about the relationship between him and Buji Island? Or was it just a coincidence? Jiang Yichen was suspicious in his heart.
According to the relationship between the Tushi Gang and Buji Island, the smiling Maitreya knew that the eggs and others had only come to Pinghai County at this time, and they would be in danger, why didn't they come to the rescue?
Instead, they told him about it, consciously or unconsciously.
What if he hadn't gone to that liquor shop and met the smiling Maitreya?
Jiang Yichen couldn't help but have an uneasy guess in his heart, the smiling Maitreya deliberately appeared in front of him, deliberately told him the news, and wanted to see what choice he would make?
Could it be that these ten masked men were also arranged by the smiling Maitreya?
Is the Tushi Gang going to tear their faces with Buji Island?
There are too many questions in his heart, which is why Jiang Yichen saw that Mei Huaijin's life was hanging by a thread, but he still stood still and waited to see what happened.
He was waiting—waiting for Xie Fei to appear.
