Big Bodhi [The Great Enlightenment] - Chapter 865
[Chapter 833: Burning agarwood and boiling morning dew]
“There’s someone here!”
“Bring it up!”
Amidst the hustle and bustle, many warriors gathered around the cellar with solemn expressions.
The two warriors who had just pushed the stone slab away jumped down from the cellar and surrounded Ji Yuenian. One of them looked up and down and said to Ji Yuenian: “Who are you and why are you hiding in the cellar?
” Under the gazes of many warriors, Ji Yuenian walked out of the cellar along the earthen steps, leaning on tree branches and crutches. He looked around with an incomprehensible expression and said, “Of course I sleep here because I have nowhere to go.” The leading
warrior He looked at the shabby white robe Ji Yuenian was wearing, and saw several hideous scars on its face, as well as the branch crutch supporting his left leg. He subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief and said, “It turns out he is a wanderer here.” I thought I had caught the real culprit who murdered the imperial city’s warriors.”
From the perspective of these warriors, not only did Ji Yuenian have no martial arts aura, but he was also a cripple with no power to bind a chicken. It is impossible for him to be the person who killed two imperial city warriors in succession.
“Let’s go look over there.”
Following the order from the leading warrior, these people all dispersed and left the small courtyard in a matter of seconds.
However, the leader of the warriors did not leave, but looked at Ji Yuenian carefully again, looking at his pale face covered with scars under his messy black hair, and said: “Let me ask you, how long have you been wandering here? “
Ji Yuenian said in a young voice: “It’s been about dozens of days.”
The leader of the warriors said: “During these days, have you ever seen two warriors dressed similarly to me?”
Ji Yuenian pointed. Pointing to the river bank several hundred feet away, he said: “I saw it. Those two people rode across the bridge and quietly turned into ashes of grass and trees, and were blown away by the wind.” “It turns out you are not just a beggar, you are also a beggar
. Crazy fool!”
The leader of the warriors spat on the ground, turned around and left.
With a smile on his face, Ji Yuenian walked out of the courtyard of the wooden house with a branch and a cane. He took a brief look at the direction, walked up the official road, and walked towards the location of Yungu Imperial City.
At the right time, a soft breeze blew across his face, blowing up his dark hair that fell to his fair forehead.
The closer we get to Yungu Imperial City, the more and more farmland grows on both sides of the official road, and the villages and towns become even denser. Pedestrians and carriages pass by from time to time, and everything as far as the eye can see is full of people.
“Little brother, I see that your breath is weak and your steps are sloppy. This is a sign of insufficient blood. But are you starving?” An old but
powerful voice came into his ears. Ji Yuenian stopped and looked sideways. The old man in black riding a bay-red horse was looking at him intently. In front of him, there was a young man standing respectfully holding the reins.
With some effort, Ji Yuenian shook his head slightly but did not speak while holding the branch crutch with his left hand.
The old man in black turned over and got off his horse. He was very agile. He walked up to Ji Yuenian and said with a smile: “Little brother, if you don’t mind, would you like to go with me to the wine shop in front to have a few drinks. I’ll pay for the wine.” Come and pay.”
Ji Yuenian didn’t want to pay attention at first, but when the old man in black got off his horse, he caught a glimpse of the token he was wearing around his waist.
Imperial City Secretary Seat.
The Yungu Imperial City Division has two chief ministers, commanding more than 300 master warriors in the Imperial City Division. Their status is extremely high. They only obey the orders of the Jiang family and rarely leave the Yungu Imperial City.
“Then let’s go,” Ji Yuenian pondered for a moment and responded softly, “But you’d better not call me this little brother again. By then, your lifespan will have been lost in vain, and it will be yours.” Trouble.”
The old man in black raised his eyebrows with a somewhat surprised expression. He looked at Ji Yuenian again and again and said, “I am seventy-nine years old, why can’t I call you little brother?” Ji Yuenian shook his head
. He didn’t speak any more, but walked straight towards the wine shop in front of him, leaning on a tree branch and crutches.
“Have a good time holding the horse and take good care of my thousand-mile precious colt.”
The old man in black gave instructions to the boy, then walked a few steps quickly, followed Ji Yuenian, and said with a smile, “Brother… Your Excellency, please wait for me.”
Ji Yuenian walked slowly because of his limited legs and feet. Seeing him chasing after him, he opened his mouth and said, “If you have something to do, just tell yourself, there is no need to beat around the bush like this.”
The old man in black pointed to a wine shop not far away and said, “Let’s find a quiet place to sit. Come down and wait until the food and wine are served, then speak slowly.”
Ji Yuenian raised his head, looked at the huge shadow of Yungu Imperial City hidden in the clouds, and narrowed his eyes slightly.
Wine shop.
Elegant room.
“I think your blood is weak, so you’d better eat something first.”
With a smile on his face, the old man in black looked at the steaming delicious dishes on the table, picked up the wine cup, and drank by himself. After ordering a glass, “I haven’t been here for more than ten years, and I never thought that the ‘Jiyun Niang’ in this wine shop is still the same as before. It is strong in the mouth and sweet in the stomach, and the taste has not changed at all.” Ji Yuenian held wooden chopsticks
. , picked up a piece of fragrant beef stew and put it into his mouth, with a strange look in his eyes, and said softly: “I haven’t tasted such a dish for a long time.” After hearing this, the old man in black thought
that He couldn’t afford to eat such meat on weekdays, so his smile became more obvious and he said: “Your Excellency, feel free to eat as much as you want. Although I am not a wealthy person, I can still afford some food and drinks.” After the appointment
, While burning the incense, Ji Yuenian put down the wooden chopsticks, took the silk towel and wiped it clean, and said: “The high-ranking and powerful Minister of the Imperial City actually came to the edge of the countryside of this man Ding Xishao. I don’t know what he wants.” What’s the matter?”
The old man in black was stunned for a moment. Apparently he had never thought that his identity had been discovered by him. However, he quickly adjusted his expression, squeezed out a smile on his face, and said: “Your Excellency, you really have good taste, then I will Straightforward.”
At this point, he put down the wine cup in his hand and looked more solemn, “In the past few days, when the imperial city’s warriors were searching for key criminals, they accidentally found a unique snake beast monster. This monster is different from the ordinary monster. Monsters are very different. According to the information gathered by the warriors, this monster is full of treasures.” After
a pause, the old man in black looked at Ji Yuenian’s place steadily and continued, “A villager came to report. I once saw this snake beast walking with a young man in white robes from a distance. The young man in white robes had several scars on his face, and he was leaning on a tree branch and a cane, which caused a lot of inconvenience in his movements.” Ji
Yue Nian’s eyes were incomprehensible and he whispered: “Are you planning to take advantage of this monster?”
The old man in black said solemnly: “To be honest, my granddaughter is terminally ill and is in urgent need of the snake gallbladder from the mountain monster. For this reason, I suppressed all the news about this snake monster and personally rushed over with my elite descendants. I must capture it as quickly as possible.” Ji Yuenian said: “Since you have already
found Why come to ask me about the whereabouts of this monster?”
The old man in black glanced at him and said: “Although I don’t know why you can walk with the monster, but in this Immortal Cherry Valley, people and monsters are familiar with each other. Although it is not common, there are many records. Since you are so familiar with it, you may know its weaknesses to some extent, so I came to ask you.” Ji Yuenian smiled slightly and
said : “No matter what the reason is, don’t go looking for trouble with it. It seems that these warriors you brought are not enough to give it blood and food as a tooth-beating sacrifice.” After saying this, he stood up straight, leaning on a tree branch and crutches
. Left the wine shop here.
The old man in black gritted his teeth slightly as he looked at Ji Yuenian’s leaving figure.
An Imperial City Division warrior quietly entered the private room and said respectfully: “Secretary.”
The old man in black turned cold and said, “Take two elite warriors and follow this person. If he makes the slightest move, report to me at any time. Report.”
“Yes, Chairman!”
The warrior responded, then seemed to have thought of something, raised his head and asked, “The plan to hunt down the black snake monster…” The
old man in black snorted coldly and said: “Everything is going according to the original plan! I don’t believe it, a little Even if a small monster has some mutations, it can still defeat more than fifty elite warriors!?” “
Yes, Sir!” (End of this chapter)
