Lu Yu looked at Qin Yi in surprise: "I never seem to have any flaws."
Qin Yi smiled and asked: "Do you still remember what you told me in the restaurant about your experiences during this time when we met again last time?"
Lu Yu nodded and said: "Of course I remember, but I don't think there is anything wrong with what I said."
Qin Yi continued: "Then do you still remember when you told us where you had the adventure?"
"Ice... a frozen cave?"
Lu Yu's face became a little weird. He didn't expect that he had exposed himself without knowing it.
Where is Yuliu Kingdom?
It is a place with spring all year round, and there is no ice or snow here at all. But he himself said that his adventure was in a frozen cave. Fortunately, no one else was present at the time, and Su Yuling did not take it seriously at the time.
Listen to this.
Otherwise, he would be really in danger if someone with intentions heard him.
"When I heard about this location, I felt a little strange. I also advised you not to do dangerous things."
Qin Yi continued unhurriedly: "But later, I put this matter aside. You are my friend after all, and I still choose to believe you. However, looking at your subsequent behavior, it seems that
The weirder it gets. Especially the behavior just now makes me more suspicious."
Lu Yu smiled helplessly and said: "No matter where I go, Brother Qin's eyes are really sharp and nothing can be hidden from your eyes. You are right, I am indeed a spy of Silver Snow Country."
Qin Yi asked: "What is going on? Can you tell me in detail?"
After a moment of silence, Lu Yu finally said: "Actually, when Xiaoya and I came to the Snow Willow Territory, the first place we arrived was not the Yuliu Country, but the Silver Snow Country. But we did not enter the country at that time.
Instead, we stopped in a desolate ice field. At that time, I encountered the biggest adventure in my life!"
Qin Yidao: "The adventure you are talking about should be referring to the things in the frozen cave, right?"
Lu Yu nodded and said: "That's right. This is the relic left by a very powerful alchemy senior before his death. I didn't think about it so much at the time. I thought that I might be able to become an alchemy master from here.
I agreed to the other party’s conditions without hesitation.”
"What conditions?"
"The condition left by that senior to open up the opportunity is that I must swear to use the various alchemy knowledge he left behind to sneak into the Yuliu Kingdom and collect information for the Yinxue Kingdom!"
Qin Yi frowned and said: "This is too hasty. Just relying on an oath can guarantee that you will be able to help him fulfill his wish? What's more, with your identity, even if you really get the information, there is no way
Is this the target of the message?"
"No, you are wrong."
Lu Yu shook his head and said: "This alchemy senior is not as brainless as you think. In fact, he has already guessed this. So before he passed away, he had already been with me from here.
The recent alchemy force has made an agreement. Once they learn that his cave has been opened, the people from that force will know about it immediately and send someone to negotiate with me."
While speaking, Lu Yu stretched out an arm and rolled up his sleeves. At this moment, Qin Yi saw a red mark on Lu Yu's arm, with the word "curse" engraved on it.
In other words, Lu Yu's body has been put under a curse seal. Once he learns that he wants to betray Silver Snow Country, the curse seal will be activated immediately. Although we don't know what will happen after the curse seal is activated, we can guess.
, absolutely nothing good will happen!
"This curse seal was carved on me by them. They told me at that time that I am now considered a disciple of that senior Alchemist. As long as I am a disciple of that senior, I must obey his orders!"
Lu Yu sighed helplessly, his voice full of despair: "In addition, I came from outside the territory and have no clear identity. It is more convenient to sneak into the Yuliu Kingdom this way."
Qin Yi frowned and said, "So, in order to get rid of the other party's control, you want to find another master?"
Lu Yu raised his head and glanced at Qin Yi, then lowered his head and said helplessly: "That's true. Only by becoming a disciple again can I be considered as not breaking the other party's promise."
After a pause, he continued: "In my eyes, only you, Brother Qin, are qualified to be my master!"
Qin Yi did not make any comment on Lu Yu's words. At that moment, he asked again: "It should have been a while since you came to Yuliu Kingdom, right? Why didn't you change your mind before, and now you suddenly thought of it?
Are you going to give up this practice?”
Lu Yu smiled bitterly and said: "It's not because I met you, Brother Qin. Before Brother Qin, I never questioned my decision! After all, there is always a price to pay for such an opportunity!
That senior taught me all his alchemy knowledge. And I should do something to repay this senior! Even when I just met you again, Brother Qin, my determination has not changed at all.
.”
Qin Yi asked: "Is this why you left the inn in a hurry that night without saying goodbye?"
"That's right!"
Lu Yu admitted frankly: "I know that what I want to do has certain risks. Brother Qin, you have helped me a lot before. So, I don't want to involve you. I want to keep my distance from you.
The best way I can think of."
Qin Yi chuckled and said, "But what you didn't expect was that not long after you left, Li Yunfu's invitation brought us together again."
Lu Yu nodded and said: "That's right. You also know what happened later. When I saw Brother Qin, you showed your attitude so firmly, and what happened to Li Yunfu later, I felt something in my heart for the first time.
Shaken. Since I came back, I have been thinking about how hard you can fight for your own decision. If I insist on my position, will one day the two of us become enemies? "
Qin Yi asked: "So, what decision did you make in the end?"
Lu Yu replied: "As you can see, I challenged you. At that time, I was thinking that if I beat you, it would prove that the alchemy senior can't live up to it. I must do it
Take practical actions to repay him! If I lose, it means that I have found a better opportunity!"
