"Sometimes I wonder, do you think I have a too good temper, so you come to your door again and again and plot against me again and again?"
Lin Ji held the wine glass in his hand and took a sip. The dissatisfied look on his face disappeared, and his tone became neither salty nor indifferent.
Thump thump thump...
It was the sound of someone coming downstairs.
Looking at the little Taoist priest who looked inferior to Xiao Guan and was white and fat, Lin Ji suppressed the dissatisfaction in his heart.
He stood up and bowed to the little Taoist priest.
"Master Tianji, please tell me what you have to say directly. Don't always appear suddenly when the matter is about to come, and then give Lin a reason that he can't refuse." Lin Ji pointed at the demonic cloud behind him, "Melting with this evil The reason for the matter.”
At the same time, Tianji has also come closer.
"Donor Lin, you're polite." Tianji nodded, and then his face showed a bit of grievance, "It's not that Xiaodao has to plot against Donor Lin, it's just a coincidence."
"What?" Lin Ji asked casually, but no longer looked at him.
Tianji didn't care and sat next to Lin Ji. He moved the plate with peanuts in front of him, grabbed a handful and threw them into his mouth one by one, chewing them loudly.
"There are actually clues that the Demon Kingdom wants to extend its hand into Xuzhou this time, but Donor Lin is not in Yangzhou and does not know the connection. The Yangzhou family is weak and has been broken by the Demon Kingdom, even the Nangong family is the same. .”
"Oh?" Lin Ji was a little surprised, "Lin heard that both sides would suffer. If the human race gave in a little, wouldn't the Nine Provinces sect forces also go to help fight?"
"The demon country's forces have never been weaker than the Kyushu human forces, but they have more internal fights. This is a digression. The gathering of these demon kings in Xuzhou is actually a continuation of what happened in the north."
Lin Ji was confused when he heard this.
"North?"
"Jingzhou."
Lin Ji raised his eyebrows and said, "How can the changes in Jingzhou be extended to these demon kings?"
"They saw the weakness of the human race in Yangzhou and the intrigues of various forces, so they became interested."
"What do you mean?"
"The idea of competing for the luck of Kyushu!" Tianji chuckled, "In fact, the overseas islands where the demon country is located are not much better than those blessed places in Kyushu in terms of aura, but how can there be any satisfaction in the world? Let alone a group of people. Demon?"
"The Qin Dynasty has just fallen apart. What the major sects have promised to share is just their destiny, and Kyushu's destiny is far more than that. It will probably take decades to gradually form a final conclusion, then It will be Kyushu’s destiny for countless years to come.”
"So the Demon Kingdom wanted to fight. Originally they just wanted to win a place in Yangzhou, but it was so successful in Yangzhou. The Nangong family headed by them was fighting among themselves because of this. They saw the opportunity and the opportunity to win a place in Jiuzhou. .”
Having said this, Tianji also looked into the distance.
"Xuzhou is just a test. From now on, there will be no peace anywhere in Jiuzhou. Maybe it's the demon country's methods, or it's the competition between forces. This is a real troubled time, and it is a troubled time that will determine the fate of countless years in the future."
After hearing Tianji's explanation, Lin Ji remained calm.
This is what he had expected.
"What you said has nothing to do with Mr. Lin. If you are waiting for Mr. Lin in this inn, if you only have this rhetoric, then Mr. Lin will definitely not get involved in this mess."
Although Tianji never asked Lin Ji to take action, judging from Lin Ji's experience in dealing with this little bastard, this guy appeared out of nowhere and would never let go.
Tianji was not in a hurry and continued to crack the peanuts in his hand until they were crunchy.
"Boss, please order a bowl of Yangchun noodles, don't order meat and oil!"
"Okay little master."
Lin Ji raised his eyebrows slightly.
"Taoist priests don't have taboos. What kind of vegetarian food do you eat? You don't even eat meat or oil?"
"Ahem, I've been used to eating a lot of fish and meat these past two days, so I want to eat something clear to clear my intestines."
"Okay." Lin Ji was a little too lazy to talk to him.
Neither of them spoke again, and the strange silence lasted until Lin Ji's order and Tianji's Yangchun noodles were served, and then it finally ended.
】
"The drunken crabs here are good. They are caught and delivered by fishermen on the same day! The wine is also home-brewed rice wine, and the taste is extremely mellow. Together with the fresh sea crabs, they complement each other and are very delicious!" Tianji said, At the same time, he took a few drunken crabs in front of Lin Ji and put them into his bowl.
Lin Ji's face darkened slightly when he saw this. He wanted to say something, but after hesitating for a moment, he sighed softly.
Forget it, this guy merged with the original owner's personality after taking over his body, and now he has the character of a young man, so there's really no point in being angry with him.
"Put it away quickly." He didn't have the patience to fight with Tianji anymore.
Seeing that Lin Ji really seemed to be turning against him, Tianji quickly put down the crab legs in his hands, not forgetting to suck all the crab roe out of the crab shell he had just broken open.
Then he took another sip of noodle soup to moisten his throat.
Just when the veins on Lin Ji's hands became more and more obvious and were about to burst, he finally spoke.
"That stupid cow was lured to the Dragon Clan's ancestral tomb by Gao Qunshu."
Lin Ji's expression froze.
"Then Lao Niu was also plotted by you?"
Tianji shook his head slightly and said, "Have you forgotten that you have eaten the flesh and blood of a real dragon before? How do you think you got a body that is comparable to the Demon King?"
"What do you mean?" Only in front of Tianji who said half a sentence, Lin Ji felt that his brain was not strong enough.
"It was us who entered the Dragon Clan's ancestral tomb and provoked the real dragon. This led to the continuous rain in Xuzhou and even Jingzhou for several months, and our trip to the Buddhist Kingdom."
"The Demon Kingdom's plan has nothing to do with you or me. No matter what Kyushu becomes in the future, it is not our concern. I asked you to take action this time because of that old cow."
There was a bit of a bad smile on Tianji's face.
"The Dragon Yuan in Lao Niu's hand has been tampered with. What kind of place is the Dragon Clan's ancestral tomb? Can it allow a mere monster to come and go freely? And it stole the Dragon Yuan from a real dragon? Did it eat the flesh and blood of a real dragon?"
Lin Ji didn't know when he had put down the tachyon in his hand.
He looked at Tianji quietly, until his voice paused temporarily, and Lin Ji finally spoke.
"So, what are you waiting for?"
"The old cow can't die here, we have to lure it back to Penglai Island."
"reason?"
"When it returns to Penglai Island, the old dragon will definitely notice it. When the old dragon is lured away, we will have the opportunity to go to the Dragon Clan Ancient Tomb again."
Lin Ji narrowed his eyes slightly.
"Gao Qunshu has the ability to send Lao Niu in, but he doesn't have the ability to go in again without anyone noticing?"
Tianji sighed softly: "What we want to get is the keel of the real dragon, a whole set of keel."
Lin Ji sneered.
No wonder it takes so much trouble.
"Why do you think Lin will help you?"
Tianji picked up the last half of the drunken crab on the plate.
"Probably the Taoist realm is still unable to withstand the power of the Bodhisattva bones, so I plan to refine the bones myself."
Lin Jitong's eyes narrowed, and in an instant he heard the meaning behind Tianji's words.
"Is this also related to the Buddhist Kingdom?"
Tianji nodded.
"It should be said that it has a lot to do with whether Wu Nan can be resurrected."
