Lin Ji dug around in his arms and took out another coin that was exactly the same as the copper coin in Taoist Pingxin's hand.
This was left after Taoist Pingxin told him his fortune that day in Liangcheng.
Lin Ji already felt that something was wrong at that time, but since there was no movement after such a long time, he almost forgot about it.
At this time, Taoist Pingxin mentioned it again, and what was left in Lin Ji's heart was only three parts fear and seven parts anger.
Are these people mentally ill? They can calculate one thing for so long.
At that time, the matter with the Ghost King of Liangcheng was not over yet. This damn Taoist Pingxin and this damn Tianji had already settled at this moment?
Was it anticipated, or was the back-up plan that was simply left behind now effective?
Lin Ji looked at Taoist Pingxin.
"Old Master Ping Xin, you and I have met several times. Have I ever treated you badly?"
"No, Mr. Lin always entertains me every time we meet. I am very grateful." Taoist Pingxin said with a chuckle.
"In that case, why did you try to trick me and push me into the fire pit?" Lin Ji's face turned dark.
Pingxin shook his head.
"This matter has great merit for you, how can it be considered as a trap for you?"
"Great merits must be lived to enjoy." Lin Ji said gloomily, "Who dares to seek the fate of the Qin Dynasty? What kind of gangster can he be? Asking me, the Fourth Realm, to catch someone's head, is not the same as asking me to die. What's the difference?"
Upon hearing this, Master Zhang Mi smiled.
"It turns out that the donor is worried about this... Please relax, donor Lin. I will accompany you down."
"Master Zhang Mi is also involved in this matter?" Lin Ji frowned slightly.
"It's not that I want to meddle in other people's business, it's just that I can't ignore this matter."
Master Zhang Mi clasped his hands together, saluted again, and then pointed to the tunnel entrance on the ground.
"Donor Lin, we don't have much time to waste, please?"
Lin Ji turned back to look at Lu Zhaoer and Lei Bao.
At this moment, Lu Zhaoer's face looked a little worried, but he did not speak and just kept looking at Lin Ji.
Obviously he didn't want to interfere with Lin Ji's decision.
Lei Bao's face was expressionless, as if he didn't hear what happened just now.
Lin Ji pursed his lips and looked at Taoist Pingxin again.
"My dear fellow, if I don't go down, what will be the consequences?"
"The fate of the Qin Dynasty was stolen, and the situation in Kyushu became even more chaotic. War broke out again in the north, and evil spirits in the west brought disaster to the world."
"Be specific."
"If the current situation in Kyushu is ten times worse, it should be about the same." Ping Xindao seemed to have nothing to do with his smile, and said, "The decline of the national destiny means that the Qin Dynasty is coming to an end."
"Imagine that the thousand-year dynasty was destroyed, and the Supervisor Tiansi ceased to exist...the evil spirits in the world, the ambitious people, the sect family that has been suppressed for thousands of years, etc."
Taoist Pingxin wanted to say more, but was interrupted by Lin Ji raising his hand.
"It means that if I don't go down, this world will be doomed, right? Haha, I am a mere monk in the fourth realm and the chief arrester of Liangzhou in the sixth grade, but I can be so important?"
"This is a great responsibility sent from heaven, which shows that you are very lucky." Taoist Pingxin explained.
Lin Ji rolled his eyes. This was trying to force someone to do something difficult.
After taking a long breath, Lin Ji asked again: "How will the money be used in the future?"
"With your hands, this object is tainted with the aura of the soul-fixing demon pestle, which is enough to maintain the demon-suppressing tower formation for half an hour."
Taoist Pingxin stroked the goatee on his chin and said: "Take it to the Dragon Head Land. After the formation is activated, Monk Zhang Mi will deal with the person who is trying to steal the sky. Just protect yourself."
"Why does it have to be me for such a simple thing?" Lin Ji couldn't understand.
"Because this matter borrowed your luck, others went down with future money and couldn't activate the formation, only you can."
Lin Ji was silent for a moment.
"Are you going?" Lu Zhaoer asked from behind.
Lin Ji turned back.
"Do I have the right to say no?"
He wished he could hide far away.
While talking, Lin Ji looked at Taoist Pingxin again, with a bit of gnashing hatred in his eyes.
"But the damn bull nose has been targeting me a long time ago, and he didn't even say a word! At this moment, I have to go even if I don't go."
Hearing this, Lu Zhaoer seemed to be influenced by Lin Ji and glared at Taoist Pingxin fiercely.
"Look out for yourself."
Lu Zhaoer didn't say anything about going together. She was not a reckless little girl. Naturally, she knew that she would only be a hindrance if she went.
"Don't worry." Lin Ji said in relief, nodded to Lei Bao, and then walked towards the tunnel entrance.
But just as he opened his legs, a strong wind suddenly hit behind him.
"Be careful!" Lu Zhaoer exclaimed.
Immediately afterwards, Lin Ji saw Lei Bao holding a big knife and slashing towards him.
At such a close distance, it was too late for him to dodge.
The expressions of Taoist Pingxin and Master Zhang Mi on the other side also changed slightly.
"The thief is bold!"
But everything happened in the blink of an eye, and Master Zhang Mi was too late even if he was highly cultivated.
Just when the sword was about to fall, Lu Zhaoer suddenly appeared in front of Lin Ji and wanted to block the sword for Lin Ji.
"Get out of the way!" Lin Ji's expression suddenly changed.
But it was too late, the sword had already fallen hard on Lu Zhaoer's body, leaving a long blood mark.
At the same time, Master Xingchi, who had been secretly on guard, finally reacted and stamped his palm on the back of Lei Bao's heart.
"ah!"
Lei Bao screamed and fell to the ground, seeing that the air was coming in but not coming out.
Lin Ji didn't even look at him, and hugged Lu Zhaoer who fell to the ground, his eyes slightly red.
After inspecting the injury with his spiritual sense, he discovered that Lei Bao suddenly had no time to accumulate force for his attack. Although the trauma was serious, Lu Zhaoer did not have the threat of life.
For a moment, Lin Ji breathed a sigh of relief, but didn't know what to say.
"You...why bother."
Lu Zhaoer's face was a little pale, and he broke away from Lin Ji's embrace with some trepidation, and sat cross-legged on the ground.
"You have big things to do. It's better for me to get hurt than for you to get hurt."
"Silly girl..."
Lin Ji wanted to say that since he had glazed armor as a lining, Lei Bao's knife might not have hurt him.
But looking at the bloody knife wound in front of Lu Zhaoer's body, he finally resisted the nonsense and turned to look at Master Xingchi.
"Master, please take care of her for a while."
"It's a matter of duty." Master Xingchi nodded slightly.
He nodded to Lu Zhaoer again, and then glared at the unconscious Lei Bao. Lin Ji then turned around and walked towards the entrance of the tunnel. After taking a deep breath, he dived in.
Master Zhang Mi said the name of the Buddha and followed closely.
The tunnel goes all the way down and is extremely dark.
When he first entered the tunnel, Lin Ji was a little nervous.
However, as he went deeper and deeper, when the light at the entrance behind him completely disappeared, Lin Ji's mood calmed down.
"Master Zhang Mi."
"Donor Lin?"
"Is that a man in black robe down there?" Lin Ji suddenly asked.
Master Zhang Mi was obviously stunned for a moment, and then said with some surprise: "How does Donor Lin know?"
"I met him once." Of course Lin Ji couldn't say that he originally suspected that Zhang Mi was the man in black robe. "Can you tell me what the relationship is between the master and the man in black robe?"
"Since the donor is curious, I will tell you briefly."
