I finally got the Yang Jade back, but when I thought about my conversation with Xiao Feng, I vaguely felt that it was like saying goodbye, and it was still a farewell.
This not-so-good feeling stayed in my mind for a while, and then it was forcibly cleared from my mind.
The operation is about to begin in the evening. The old cat's physical condition will definitely not allow him to go out with us anymore, but Dahuang wants to go with us.
Rujun quickly persuaded Dahuang to give up this idea. Firstly, the old cat still needs someone to take care of it. Secondly, Rujun and I are both fierce ghosts, so it is much easier to move around.
In the end, Da Huang failed to convince us and had to stay and take care of the old cat.
Xiaofeng and the others also stay here. With their fighting prowess, defending against the King of Dragons and the others shouldn't be a big problem.
In the evening, Rujun and I went out, leaving our current base and moving towards the Shuiguan Great Wall.
Before leaving, everyone went out to say goodbye to us. Even Yan Bing, who was not very close to me, and Liang Xuexiu, who was not close to me at all, did not miss the farewell.
Xiaofeng looked at me and Rujun with a complicated expression on his face. Maybe after what happened last time, Rujun looked at Xiaofeng and Xiaofeng looked at Rujun differently.
Rujun once said, if the person I really like in my heart is Xiaofeng, then she will not stop me or pester me, but I have clearly told Rujun that I only have her in my heart. So now if
Jun will guard her own things uncompromisingly and will not share them with others.
As for Xiaofeng, I have no way of knowing what she is thinking, but when I see her eyes, I know that she will not give up so easily, nor will she give up easily.
At that moment, I suddenly felt very sad, and even lamented the magic and cruelty of the Creator. Since human love can only be loyal, why not deprive two people of their ability to attract other people of the opposite sex the moment they fall in love?
When Rujun and I arrived near the Shuiguan Great Wall, the moon had already risen high. The wind in Sijiu City has been blowing very hard these days, so we can no longer see the shadow of smog. There is not even a trace in the sky.
The clouds have been cleared.
I was wearing a very ordinary windbreaker, because after turning into a ghost, I was no longer afraid of the cold, so I was still wearing autumn clothes, which was the outfit I wore when I died.
Rujun is dressed a little warmer, but because we often have to fight, it is actually more important to please leave.
This area once imprisoned the King of Ten Thousand Dragons. I always felt that the King of Ten Thousand Dragons would not let it go easily, so when I came here with Rujun today, I was always vigilant.
Fortunately, the road was fairly smooth and nothing happened. Not even Cao Wuyong's red-eyed crow appeared.
Seeing that the Stone Buddha Temple was in front of us, and the entrance where we met Yao Guangxiao was here, Rujun and I held our breath and moved towards that direction cautiously.
Rujun whispered: "Lin Yang, I always have a bad feeling tonight, maybe because I am too nervous..."
I looked back at Rujun and found beads of sweat on Rujun's forehead. This surprised me, because from the beginning to now, Rujun has always been the image of a female Zhuge in my heart. In times of crisis,
She always has her own way, and even if there is no other way, she will always be able to keep calm, but in the current situation, Rujun does seem a little panicked.
I held Rujun's hand, and at this time I found that Rujun's hand was already covered in sweat.
I whispered: "Rujun, don't be afraid. Since we are together, there is nothing to be afraid of. At least we are together, right?"
Rujun nodded slightly, and the expression on his face finally softened. In the night, Rujun's pupils looked even darker, and I could see my own reflection in her eyes. This feeling was very beautiful.
But at this moment, Rujun suddenly frowned slightly, looked into the distance and said, "Wait, there is someone there!"
I looked back and followed Rujun's eyes and saw a somewhat plump figure.
The gray monk's robe and round figure are Yao Guangxiao's apprentice, that little monk!
Rujun and I looked at each other and quickly stood up to walk towards the little monk. However, before we could start, I suddenly saw a figure flashing through the trees in the distance!
The figure moved too fast, and I didn't see the whole thing clearly, but I vaguely saw that the figure's head was not a head, as if it was wearing a mask or something...
Wait, I feel like I have seen this person somewhere before, but I can’t remember it. At this moment, the young monk in the distance has seen Rujun and me.
"Donor Lin Yang! Beautiful benefactor!" the young monk shouted loudly, as if he was afraid that others wouldn't hear us here.
I quickly waved my hand to the young monk and asked him to stop yelling. An enemy might appear next to him at any time. The man wearing the mask was obviously our enemy.
But the little monk still waved his hands and said, "I see you too! I see you too!"
I lowered my voice and roared: "Stop yelling! Keep your voice down!"
While talking, Rujun and I quickly rushed to the side of the young monk. I quickly covered his mouth and said angrily: "Don't yell. Aren't you afraid of attracting the King of Dragons?"
Unexpectedly, the little monk smiled cheerfully and shook his head: "Of course I'm not afraid. I've already checked and there's not a single person nearby."
I was so angry that I glared at the little monk: "Fart, I just saw a figure passing by here with my own eyes!"
"What figure? Impossible, I only saw you." The young monk said stubbornly.
I looked into the distance and whispered: "It's a figure. I've seen this figure before, wearing a mask. It's a bit... mysterious."
After hearing this, Rujun looked at me strangely: "When did you see it?"
It seemed that Rujun didn't see this figure either, so I quickly said: "Just a second before I saw the little monk, the little monk interrupted my attention by yelling."
Rujun thought for a moment and said, "Little monk, are you really sure there is no one here?"
The young monk nodded quickly and said: "It must be the hallucination of Donor Lin Yang. I have confirmed it countless times. There is no one around here at all."
I sighed helplessly: "Why did I lie to you? By the way, where is your master?"
Only then did the young monk realize the important point and said quickly: "Master has arrived and asked me to greet you. Come with me."
With that said, the little monk led us into the tunnel.
Just like when I came here a few days ago, the tunnel is still dark and damp, filled with the smell of death.
The young monk walked in front with a flashlight, and Rujun and I walked behind. However, until we reached the end of the tunnel, we still didn't see Yao Guangxiao's shadow.
I felt something was wrong in my heart. Is this little monk trying to trick us?
"Little monk, where is your master?" I asked again.
The young monk said lightly: "Not here, in the cave where the King of Dragons is imprisoned."
"In the cave? What is he doing in the cave?" After hearing that Yao Guangxiao did not appear where we expected, I felt a little uneasy and began to doubt Yao Guangxiao's sincerity.
But the young monk obviously didn't care about what I was thinking. He didn't care and just smiled lightly: "Who knows, I can't guess what he is thinking."
As he spoke, the young monk led us out of the other end of the tunnel, and then took a small path and walked towards the mountain stream of the real Stone Buddha Temple. Next to the mountain stream was the sculpture of the weird stone Buddha, and opposite the mountain stream was the one where the King of Dragons was imprisoned.
The cave, according to the young monk, Yao Guangxiao is in this cave now.
"You guys go over there. I can't fly and can't cross this mountain stream." The young monk said helplessly, "I won't go over there with you."
I looked at the little monk. This little fat man had a chubby face and looked quite honest. He didn’t look like a liar. But when I thought that his master was Yao Guangxiao, I felt a little uneasy.
.
Rujun and I looked at each other, and I asked, "In the past?"
Rujun nodded lightly: "Now that we are here, we have no choice but to pass."
I looked at the young monk and asked, "Can we really trust you and your master this time?"
The young monk clasped his hands together: "Amitabha, monks don't lie..."
