After Geng Ran and the others walked away, Lin Ji looked at Wu Nan with some curiosity.
"Why do you only use fists and feet? I saw those two Sanshengdong disciples with swords."
"If weapons were used, I would not only have a bruised nose and a swollen face, little monk."
Wu Nan pursed his lips, and when he saw Lin Ji's probing eyes, he explained with some embarrassment: "I made an agreement with those two when I went up to fight, but I won't fight to the death."
"Can they listen to you?" Lin Ji raised his eyebrows.
"Aren't you, Benefactor Lin, and Geng Ran here? It doesn't matter who wins or loses. It still depends on the outcome of the two of you."
After saying this, Lin Ji understood.
Are Wu Nan and the two disciples from the Sanshengdong just playing around?
No lives were lost on either side, and the bottom line was left for him and Geng Ran to decide the outcome?
Also, if Lin Ji and Geng Ran really decide the winner, those in the third realm can only accept their fate and cannot resist.
It's just right now, and it doesn't hurt the harmony.
Otherwise, Geng Ran wouldn't have been able to say anything about working together again if there was a chance in the future.
"Okay, stop grimacing and see if there is anything else in the pharmacy."
Upon hearing this, Wu Nan became more energetic, the grievance on his face suddenly disappeared, and he jogged back to the pharmacy.
After a while, Lin Ji and Wu Nan searched the three-story attic.
In addition to the three bottles of elixirs on the altar table, seven or eight bottles of unknown elixirs of unknown origin were found.
"How about I take two bottles on the table and divide the rest in half?" Lin Ji asked.
"Thanks to Donor Lin, we were not robbed by the people from Sansheng Cave. Whatever you say is what you say." Wu Nan nodded quickly.
Even if Lin Ji was more harsh, he could only accept it. At this time, Lin Ji was kind, and of course he would not have any objection.
After receiving the elixir handed over by Lin Ji, Wu Nan smiled and narrowed his eyes, and the bruises on his face became vivid.
The two left the pharmacy and continued deep into the ruins.
The road leaving the pharmacy leads in two directions. Just now Geng Ran and others took the left, while Lin Ji and Wu Nan chose the right without hesitation.
While walking, Lin Ji asked again: "How much do you know about the Three Saints Cave?"
Wu Nan thought for a while and said: "The Three Saints Cave in Jinding Mountain is to the west of Xiangzhou. It has a long tradition and is not inferior to Taiyi Sect."
"It's not surprising to be able to compete with the Taiyi Sect and have a long heritage." Lin Ji nodded slightly.
"Taiyi Sect is a Taoist sect. They practice Taoist teachings from various schools. Hundreds of flowers bloom inside the sect. But the Three Saints Cave is different. The Three Saints Cave respects the three saints of heaven, earth and man. When walking, it is a path of internal and external cultivation."
"Holy of Heaven? Holy of Earth? Holy of Humans?" This was the first time Lin Ji heard this statement.
Wu Nan nodded slightly.
"These Three Saints are great powers from ancient times. I don't know the specific details. But the current path of the Three Saints Cave is all passed down by these three great powers."
"The Heavenly Saint governs destiny, the Earthly Saint governs soul, and the Human Saint governs Taoism."
"With both internal and external training, and luck, the Three Saint Cave is really a perfect place." Lin Ji was dumbfounded.
At this time, he could still make some jokes, but Lin Ji knew very well that such a large sect that could be passed down for countless years was definitely not something Wu Nan could explain clearly in a few words.
This little bald donkey probably only knows a little bit about it.
While they were talking, the two of them had already left the medicine garden and entered the cave passage again.
When they left the new grotto passage again, they came to a place that looked like a martial arts arena.
Similar to the previous medicine garden, this is also a confined space dozens of meters high.
Who knows what this Bai Cishan was dug into.
The end in front was about three to four hundred meters, and there were dozens of stone men in the field, standing still.
On both sides of the martial arts arena, there are rooms carved out of the stone walls, which should be places for retreat.
"Some of them look like sects from ancient times." Lin Ji thought about it.
"It should be, or it may be the dojo of ancient monks, which opened up these places to accommodate disciples to practice." Wu Nan also said, "If it is a sect, it should not be so hidden, nor should there be any signs of the sect from beginning to end.
"
"It makes sense." Lin Ji nodded slightly.
While they were talking, the two of them had already walked into the martial arts arena.
But after taking two steps, they suddenly stopped in place.
Lin Ji held his breath and looked at Wu Nan with a bit of fear in his eyes.
"Did you see it?"
"Look...look...see...I saw it." Wu Nan was even more unbearable than Lin Ji.
The moment the two of them stepped into the martial arts arena, the stone man in the martial arts arena moved.
When they stopped, the stone man regained his composure.
But just now, Lin Ji clearly saw that the stone man was really moving, and he saw it clearly!
"Puppet? Do you want it to be so cliche?" Lin Ji complained in his heart.
He also read through many ancient biographies when he was in Qingyang County and Liangcheng. Although it was his first time exploring ruins, he had many similar experiences.
Suddenly, Wu Nan poked Lin Ji's arm.
"Donor Lin, look over there."
Lin Ji looked in the direction Wu Nan pointed, and then his face turned a little pale.
It was about a hundred meters away from the two of them, and there were still blood stains on the ground.
The blood stain was dragged far away, and when we arrived at the entrance of the martial arts arena, we couldn't see it clearly because of the angle.
But from where the two of them were at this time, they could clearly see seven or eight corpses piled at the end of the bloodstain.
The corpse was still warm, with arms and legs missing.
They were obviously monks who came to explore the ruins just like them.
"Were they killed by puppets? How could they be piled together?" Lin Ji felt a little scared.
"I don't know." Wu Nan shook his head.
He tried to take half a step back. As soon as he stepped back, a stone man dozens of meters away from the two people turned his head strangely.
The facial features that seemed perfunctorily carved on the face, at this moment, had a great sense of oppression in the eyes of the two of them.
"Don't move." Lin Ji quickly grabbed Wu Nan.
"These puppets should have locked us in after entering this martial arts arena."
"Then what should we do? We can't spend time here all the time." Wu Nan pursed his lips again.
Lin Ji closed his eyes and was silent for a moment.
For a while, he couldn't escape.
And he didn't know how powerful these stone puppets were and whether he could deal with them.
More importantly, Lin Ji didn't dare to try.
After thinking for a long time, Lin Ji's eyes suddenly fell on Wu Nan.
"It's difficult to understand..."
"Donor Lin?"
"You said you can seek good fortune and avoid misfortune?"
Wu Nan's expression froze and he quickly shook his head.
"It's all my fault. Donor Lin, don't think too much!"
Lin Ji patted his shoulder.
"Which direction do you think is more pleasing to the eye?"
"This..." Wu Nan felt a little embarrassed and pointed to the left casually.
"It seems more pleasing to the eye here."
"Then just take a walk and see." Lin Ji smiled in an extremely kind manner.
Seeing that he still didn't move, Lin Ji put his hand on the hilt of the sword.
"Be good, be obedient, and take a walk. Everything will be fine."
