Chapter 408: Where Did It Come From?
He Zhi and Lin Yuqing's tracking did not take long. In fact, the mysterious friar was hiding in a place that He Zhi was very familiar withβin the remote inn that He Zhi had visited once before.
Or rather, the friar didn't hide at all. When He Zhi and Lin Yuqing came to the inn, the female monk looked like she was waiting for them.
The friar sat at a table with two plates of side dishes. The friar's flask was in front of her, along with a pile of peeled peanut shells beside it.
"Sit down. When she saw He Zhi and Lin Yuqing appear, the nun had no awareness that she was being hunted down at all, as if she was the owner of the inn, she stretched out her hand to the two and pointed to the opposite side of herself.
He Zhi stared at the female monk's finger for a long time and didn't move, muttering in his heart: Shouldn't this woman just be a little minion next to the big boss?
"Hehe......" Lin Yuqing laughed, and sat down opposite the female monk generously, "Daoist friends deliberately attract the two of us, it should be more than just killing people and killing people, right?"
He Zhi's eyes widened suddenly, and then he broke out in a cold sweat. Suddenly, He Zhicai suddenly understood, how could he and Lin Yuqing be able to track the whereabouts of the female monk on the other side so easily!
You must know that before this, even Li Zhenren had wasted all her strength to find the clue that she was in the Thousand Machine Pavilion! Even if Lin Yuqing did have a secret method of tracking, it was impossible to be stronger than Li Zhenren, right?
However, Lin Yuqing actually found the other party so easily! Isn't this the other side deliberately leaving clues for Lin Yuqing?
But...... She is too bold, isn't she? Knowing that the clues were deliberately left by the other party, she still dares to chase after her? He Zhi looked at Lin Yuqing, and it was like reacquainting himself with the beautiful "wife" beside him.
When faced with a desperate situation, He Zhi is indeed a courageous person. But in normal times, He Zhi is just an ordinary person. If it were He Zhi, I am afraid that he would probably not dare to follow the clues deliberately left by the other party.
Moreover, after thinking about it carefully, He Zhi had to admit that Lin Yuqing was probably right to do this!
This female monk took a huge risk to leave clues for him and Lin Yuqing to follow, and her purpose was naturally not as simple as killing He Zhi and Lin Yuqing to vent her anger!
Thinking of this, He Zhi finally walked over to Lin Yuqing and sat down.
"Do you know? You've made a big mistake this time. The nun seemed to want to take the lead, and He Zhi had just sat down here, and she threw out such a sentence.
"Hehe, big mistake? Fellow Daoists might as well tell us what mistakes we have made. Lin Yuqing was not frightened when he was able to mix with the position of a true disciple in the Tianhe Sword Sect, he was still smiling and groaning, and he was not affected by the other party's words in the slightest.
He Zhi sat upright and didn't interject a word. The cultivation of these two women is higher than him, and they are not half a star high. He Zhi knows too little information, so the best choice is to listen more and talk less.
Of course, He Zhi also has his own advantages. These two women may indeed have information that He Zhi does not know, but He Zhi does not have a lot of information that they cannot imagine.
Let others speak first and hide yourself in the shadows. This is the only way to gain an advantage in negotiations. Someone is willing to send it to the door, but he can't ask for it.
"Uncle Situ is not a spy controlled by the demons outside the world. The nun spoke again, "You forced Uncle Situ to show up this time, but you made a big mistake. β
"Oh, you say no, no?" Lin Yuqing couldn't help but chuckle and looked at the nun disapplaudedly.
"You probably won't believe me when I say that. But it is. Moreover, Uncle Situ is an extremely key figure in this invasion of demons outside the sky. He was supposed to ...... Well, if he hadn't been forced by you to show up, he would have been able to deliver a last-minute blow to the Outer Demons. β
The nun said to Lin Yuqing very solemnly. The content of her words was nothing special, it sounded like an extension of her first few sentences, an explanation made to enhance her persuasiveness. But the slightest pause and turn in the middle of the friar made He Zhi interested.
He Zhi had to admit that this sentence touched his nerves.
Despite the efforts of the nun on the other side to hide it, He Zhi still had a very strange feeling. It's like...... What Situ Jiankong did in the turmoil of this extraterrestrial demon invasion, this female monk knew everything very clearly! She did not speculate on what Situ Jiankong was going to do through Situ Jiankong's character, but she really knew what Situ Jiankong was going to do!
Prophets, prophecies, divination, or ......
He Zhi couldn't help but think about it.
If He Zhi hadn't had a history of crossing, he might not have noticed the subtle pause in the middle of the friar, and he wouldn't even have so many associations with the friar's words. After all, there are many abilities in this world such as divination and prophecy, and the Netherworld True Monarch of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect is not good at divination? If it weren't for careful taste, it would be reasonable to just intuitively take that female monk's words as a speculation. Lin Yuqing didn't think there was anything special about the friar's words.
But the speaker has no intention, but the listener has the intention. He Zhi listened to the words of the female monk, and then listened more carefully to Lin Yuqing's conversation with her.
"Oh, do you mean that we brought the Ten Thousand Swords Sect to you, and we did something wrong?" Lin Yuqing looked at the female cultivator opposite with a smile, obviously not believing a word of what she said.
"Yes, you are doing it wrong. You may not know what the consequences of this mistake you have made may be. The friar continued in an increasingly serious tone.
"What kind of result?" Lin Yuqing straightened up, but her smile remained unchanged. The more serious the female monk on the other side was, the more it looked like a threat to Lin Yuqing.
"The catastrophe of the world. The nun spit out these four words seriously, but it made Lin Yuqing laugh.
"The Great Tribulation of the World? Daoyou is inevitably too alarmist. Although our Tianhe Sword Sect is small, it is not unheard of about the invasion of demons outside the sky. There are also some records of this in the classics of the sect. Although every time the demon invasion from outside the world will cause some trouble, it is too funny to say that the world is a catastrophe. Moreover, this time they chose the Ten Thousand Swords Sect as their opponent, I am afraid they chose the wrong object. The Ten Thousand Swords Sect is now on full alert, and I really can't imagine what kind of extraterrestrial demon can set off a catastrophe in the world. β
"I don't believe it's your business, but the catastrophe is near. Things like this today will not stop, and they will continue to happen in the future. This time it's the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, and the next time it's other sects. You Tianhe Sword Sect can't hide either. The nun still said to Lin Yuqing in a tone that seemed to be threatening. And after saying this, she suddenly looked at Lin Yuqing carefully, and then frowned deeply.
"Tianhe Sword Sect...... Spirit Realm Female Cultivator ......" The female monk's words suddenly stopped, and then looked at Lin Yuqing in great confusion, while her eyes were still turning around He Zhi next to her.
"Are you Lin Yuqing?" After a while, the female cultivator suddenly asked Lin Yuqing.
"Uh-huh? exactly. Lin Yuqing looked at the female cultivator in front of her in great surprise, and raised her eyebrows.
Although Lin Yuqing was a true disciple of the Tianhe Sword Sect and could be regarded as a figure in the cultivation world, Lin Yuqing was still greatly surprised that a disciple of the Spirit Realm of a traitor of the Beiyue Sword Sect could actually call out his name.
Lin Yuqing didn't think she had such a big reputation in the cultivation world.
"Huh...... I heard about it by chance when I was traveling around with Uncle Situ. The nun smiled, but there was still confusion in her eyes as she looked at Lin Yuqing.
Of course, this doubt may not even be noticed by Lin Yuqing, who was sitting opposite. Only He Zhi, who was engrossed in observing the nusity's every move, and even opened the realm of "subtle and clear" with all his might, could detect the deep doubts and a trace of excitement that the nun had hidden.
This is a little wrong! What was she excited when she saw Lin Yuqing? Also, how could she recognize Lin Yuqing, and what was so strange after recognizing it? He Zhi felt more and more weird, and at the same time, the awkward feeling in his heart became stronger and stronger.
Soon, He Zhi realized the source of this awkwardness - the female monk in front of him felt like another self to He Zhi!
Through the Qiankun Palace, He Zhi had a lot of information that others could not imagine. And the female monk in front of her gave He Zhi the same feeling! Her cultivation is not high, and her identity and origin are not so mysterious, but she seems to have a lot of secrets that should not be mastered at all with her cultivation and identity!
Behind her, there is also a Qiankun Palace? She is also a member of the Qiankun Palace? Or is she one of the "demons outside the sky" mentioned by the Qiankun Palace?
However, if she was a member of the "Outer Heaven Demon", then her previous performance would be completely wrong! From her conversation with Lin Yuqing, He Zhi felt that she seemed to be truly on the side of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect. Moreover, if she was someone from the side of the "Outer Heaven Demon", then she should be very happy that her side had ruined Situ Jiankong's plan, and there would be no need to find herself and Lin Yuqing to make such a seemingly intimidating move again.
The world seems to be getting more and more complicated. He Zhi blinked with a headache, and then found that the female cultivator on the opposite side seemed to be constantly looking at herself in addition to looking at Lin Yuqing. Moreover, when she saw herself, the confusion and excitement in her eyes were even worse than when she looked at Lin Yuqing!
Even this woman's eyes made He Zhi a little creepy.
However, the friar quickly looked away. She adjusted her mood, and when she spoke again, the confusion and excitement in her eyes had completely subsided.
"In short, what the two of you are doing today is extremely detrimental to this side of the world. I came to you in the hope that I could join forces with both of you and get everything back on track. The nun said very sincerely to He Zhi and Lin Yuqing.
"Huh...... Daoist friends inevitably think too highly of us. Even if the three of us join forces, we will only be small pawns in the Ten Thousand Swords Sect. In terms of cultivation, my Taoist friends and I are just in the spiritual realm, and my husband is only in the realm of entering the Dao. Even if he entered the Dao with martial arts and could almost match the Spirit Realm, what was the use? Three Spirit Realm cultivators were just ......" Lin Yuqing shook her head as she spoke, obviously not wanting to follow the female monk opposite to wade into troubled waters.
However, the female monk refused to give up, and still persuaded very seriously: "Lin Daoyou, you can't say that. Although the strength of the three of us is meager, we are completely incomparable to the Ten Thousand Swords Sect. But if this power is used in key places, it can play a role in four or two thousand pounds. Especially some things, I can't let the monks of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect do it, but I can do it with the two of you. β
"You've said so much, there's always one problem that hasn't been solved. How do you make us believe you?" He Zhi, who had not spoken in front of him, spoke at this time.
He Zhi could see that Lin Yuqing most likely didn't want to mix with this female monk. Lin Yuqing was not interested in what this female monk said. Especially now, she and He Zhi have been assured by Jin Tianhong that as long as the chaos in the Ten Thousand Swords Sect is over, the two of them can leave safely. Of course, Lin Yuqing refused to make any extraneous branches.
Compared to the female monk in front of her, who was a little chattering, Lin Yuqing obviously believed in the power of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect more.
But He Zhi's thoughts are different from Lin Yuqing's. The feeling that this female cultivator gave He Zhi was by no means a disguised magic stick. Of course, He Zhi wanted to know more than what she knew, where she got this information!
And what He Zhi can be sure of is that she is by no means those "demons outside the sky" in the mouth of the Qiankun Palace. Otherwise, He Zhi believed that when he first met the other party, the Qiankun Palace would not be silent forever. When he was in the Zhang family, He Zhi had just seen the kid from the Zhang family, and the Qiankun Palace directly gave He Zhi a hint and told him that the opponent was possessed by an evil demon outside the sky.
Secondly, He Zhi was almost certain that this female cultivator was by no means a member of the Qiankun Palace. Otherwise, the Qiankun Palace would not need to risk being discovered by the Ten Thousand Swords Sect and forcibly show its strength to save He Zhi when Situ Jiankong attacked He Zhi.
So, who is she?
He Zhi is now full of interest in the answer to this question.
