The atmosphere around the campfire became strangely quiet.
Lin Ji concentrated on dealing with the roast rabbit in his hand. He also pulled out a few pieces of firewood to make the fire smaller.
"The fire is too big and the lake outside is still raw inside. It is best to roast it slowly over medium heat."
Lin Ji brushed the seasoning again, let the rabbit continue to roast on the fire for a while, and then brushed the seasoning again.
This cycle has been repeated three times, but he is still unwilling to stop.
While flipping the roasted rabbit, Lin Ji's eyes fell on the Xuanguang mirror in Beishuang's hand.
"Top treasure?" Lin Ji raised his eyebrows and looked at Beishang.
"Yes." Beishuang nodded lightly.
Dong Xueying on the side didn't even dare to take a breath, but his eyes kept moving back and forth between Beishang and Lin Ji.
He saw that Lin Ji and Beishuang knew each other, but he didn't know why his Saintess Association met the Taoist monks of Da Qin.
Was it what happened when the saint went out several times before?
The church kept silent about the Saint's experience of going out, and Beishang himself never explained anything. Now it seems that there may be a lot of fishiness involved.
But no matter what, since you recognize it, maybe you can save your life today?
While thoughts were flashing in Dong Xueying's mind, Lin Ji whistled softly and took the roasted rabbit off the stick with some expectation.
He tore off a rabbit leg and handed it to Beishuang. He also took a bite of the rabbit leg.
"Well, Chai, your skills are too poor."
"I'm just copying a cat and imitating a tiger. You never taught me." Beishuang ate with gusto. The rabbit leg in his hand soon became just bones, and his eyes fell on the remaining roast rabbit in Lin Ji's hand.
"Here you go." Lin Ji handed over the roasted rabbit and took Beishuang's Xuanguang Mirror.
After holding the shattered top treasure in his hands and playing with it for a moment, Lin Ji shook his head and said, "When I came here just now, I felt like something was spying on me secretly. Is that the reason for this treasure?"
Beishuang didn't answer.
Lin Ji looked at Dong Xueying and said, "You and I are old acquaintances. You should know me. If you don't tell me, I won't talk nonsense to you."
After finishing his words, Lin Ji pointed at Dong Xueying beside him.
"I will search his soul."
Dong Xueying's expression suddenly changed and he quickly looked at Beishang.
Beishuang sighed helplessly.
"Yes, this Xuanguang Mirror will protect its owner. It has no power in itself, but if there is danger approaching its owner, the mirror will flash with light. The more dangerous it is, the more dazzling the light will be."
"It's quite strange, and it deserves the name of a top treasure... It's a pity that it can't be destroyed. I just subconsciously used my soul to fight back, and this treasure was broken."
"You are a Taoist, how can the treasure bear the power of your soul?"
Beishuang rolled his eyes. The rabbit in his hand was only a pile of bones.
"That's true." Lin Ji smiled and saw Beishang finished eating, so he pointed at Dong Xueying again.
"Who is this?"
"Dong Xueying, my subordinate is the apprentice of the great elder of the sect, and he is quite favored."
"Can I kill?"
"This..." Beishang was speechless for a moment.
On the side, Dong Xueying's eyes widened suddenly, with an extreme sense of crisis in his heart.
But before he could make the next move, Lin Ji suddenly waved his hand.
"If you don't speak, take it as your default."
As soon as he finished speaking, Dong Xueying felt his perspective begin to rotate.
After about half a breath, his last thought was that he finally realized that his head and body were separated.
Lin Ji waved again and held his soul in his hands.
No need to ask questions, just explore directly with the eye of cause and effect.
After a moment, Lin Ji casually annihilated his soul and turned to look at Beishang.
After watching his companions being killed by Lin Ji, and now facing Lin Ji's eyes, Beishang's face looked a little pale.
Although he had dealt with Lin Ji a lot and the two sides had some understanding of each other, this was the first time they had faced each other in a hostile manner.
Seeing this indifferent indifference, which was like crushing an ant to death, in Beishang's eyes, even though she knew that Lin Ji would not kill her, she still felt an incomparable chill in her heart.
Everyone who has entered the Taoist realm is an ant.
This sentence was clearly displayed on Lin Ji's body in front of him.
Now in the eyes of the other party, she is probably just an ant that is somewhat pleasing to the eye, right?
"You...will kill him now?"
"Otherwise?" Lin Ji was surprised, "He and I have never met each other, and he is not from our Da Qin. Is it possible to spare his life?"
"He is quite popular among the great elders of our religion..."
"Then let the Great Elder of the Holy Fire Sect come to trouble Lin."
Beishang was speechless at these words.
Nowadays, Lin Ji is already a Taoist monk and a Youtianguan of the Supervising Tiansi. He has no reason to be afraid of the Taoist monks of the Holy Fire Sect.
Seeing Beishang's silence, Lin Ji asked casually: "In the cause and effect of Nadong Snow Eagle, I saw that this time your Holy Fire Sect brought fifteen barbarian monks in the Yuan Shen realm, preparing to disrupt the rear of Yunzhou? Yutian County I've already killed one of the five people over there and disabled four of them, what about the rest?"
"Elsewhere, about three to four hundred miles away from here." Beishang whispered, "Except for us here, everyone else will be dormant, waiting for the barbarian army to press the border and cause trouble again."
"The army is approaching? So the current Zhenbei Army can no longer withstand it?"
"We were defeated as early as a month ago. Our barbarian army has already entered Yunzhou for more than 300 miles, and we still have the energy to go further. We have just stopped temporarily."
"If Great Qin doesn't help, when the next war breaks out, Yunzhou will be completely captured by us in the far north."
Beishang looked at Lin Ji and said softly: "I think you came here because of the tense war in the north, right? If you were the only one to join the Tao, I'm afraid it would be difficult to stop the general trend."
"I'm here to handle private matters. What happens to Yunzhou has nothing to do with me." Lin Ji shook his head slightly, stood up and said, "Come with me. I happen to be going to the far north later, and I'm worried about not having a guide."
"You want to go to the far north?" Beishuang was a little surprised, then hesitated, "But I... forget it, I'll go with you."
Originally, Beishang wanted to argue, but when she saw Lin Ji's half-smiling expression, she immediately understood that she was just a prisoner and there was no room for bargaining.
She got up and followed Lin Ji towards Yutian County.
"So what are you going to do in the far north?"
"Looking for someone, have you ever heard of Wen Renjia?"
Fang Qing's great-grandmother's name was Wenren Ting, which Lin Ji only found out after asking on the road.
Apart from this, Fang Qing also had no idea what to ask.
"I haven't heard of it, but it's not like the Beidi surname. It should be someone from Kyushu who moved to the far north." Beishang said, "If so, you should go to Jingchuan City to find it."
"Jingchuan City?"
"It's a big city where people from Kyushu mostly gather. It's also one of the few places in the far north that our Holy Fire Sect can't control."
"It sounds like it's quite troublesome."
"Well, you can remove the "feeling". "
