Arrival in Mole Town 013
At noon, Zhan Yi ate with gusto, wolfing down his food and dripping with oil, leaving the three masters watching in stunned silence.
Especially Dong Dabao and Fa Jie were secretly thinking, this guy who was holding a chicken leg in one hand and stuffing braised pork into his mouth with the other, is he really going to be the future Heavenly Master? How come the more they looked at him, the more he seemed like a starving ghost? However, later on, they also hastily joined in the ranks of those scrambling to eat and drink, no way could they not eat a table full of food, otherwise it would all be wasted.
Even the two of them took advantage of Xiānyún's inattention and stuffed meat into their mouths, with an extremely comfortable expression that had nothing to do with being a monk. What surprised Zhǎn Yì the most was that Xiānyún also took advantage of the two disciples' inattention and started eating meat, winking at him while doing so, with an expression full of self-satisfaction.
This made Xianyun recall a sentence that his master and fellow disciples had said before, "Never be deceived by their appearance." No wonder the three of them were more cunning than one another, it seemed they weren't exactly the type to strictly follow the rules either.
Until they were full and drunk, the few people wiped the oil from their mouths. Xianyun resumed his dignified appearance as a high monk, while Dong Dabao and Fa Jie transformed into upright practitioners. Only Zhan Yi felt that he was the most authentic among them.
However, he didn't stay in the temple for long either. After drinking a few cups of tea, he set off with Dong Dabao. Before leaving, Xi Yun seemed reluctant to part ways and spoke with tears in his eyes for half a day, like an old mother. Fa Jie also seemed to be having a hard time, constantly reminding Xuan Yi to take him away next time.
Zhan Yi was also moved, although they had only spent a short time together, but for some reason he always felt like he and Xian Yun had been together for many years. Until he turned around and walked far away, he couldn't help but turn his head back to look again. It was at this moment that Xian Yun shouted: "Zhan Shi Zhu, you must be careful on your journey to the Mo Er tribe, there will definitely be a disaster." This made him shiver all over, and in his heart he cursed, even after leaving they didn't say a word of farewell.
The Moer tribe is located in the central region of Xinjiang Autonomous Region, about 500-600 miles away from Jinshan Temple where Xianyun is. Zhan Yi and Dong Dabao rushed to Moer Town, where the Moer tribe was located, and it was already after 8 pm.
They found an inn and settled down quickly, not to mention that with Dong Dabao's help, they really felt more at ease. The guy was always able to show off his talent for haggling and building relationships, and the room he found for them was both comfortable and cheap.
After settling in, Zhang Yi and Dong Dabao went out to eat again. Seeing that everyone here was dressed in long gowns and horse jackets, Zhang Yi felt as if he had entered ancient times. Moreover, their speech was filled with a strong dialect, making it difficult for him to understand what they were saying. So after finishing dinner, they returned to their lodgings early.
It turns out that Dong Dabao somehow started chatting with the people at the next table, and it seemed like they had hit it off immediately, being extremely enthusiastic, drinking and playing rock-paper-scissors together, having a great time.
When Zhang Yi was leaving, he originally wanted to pull him along, but Dong Dabao mysteriously said a sentence: "Boss, I've heard something, you can go back first." Which made Zhang Yi also not dare to ask more.
Back at his residence, standing by the window on the second floor, looking out at the lights of the small town, Xianyi felt that this period of time was like a dream, inexplicably getting into all sorts of trouble, and now he had to find ways to purify the evil energy in his body, and it seemed like everything was caused by Baishi Biqu.
He thought of what Xian Yun had told him about the hundred generations of Bhikkhu's body, that a Bhikkhu's body was already at its limit after a hundred generations, and that there were still causes and effects to be repaid, and that the accumulation of merits had already reversed heaven, so it was destined that he would not be able to be a pure cultivator in this life. Because of the grudges and grievances from the previous hundred generations of reincarnation, they would all come to his door in this life to settle the score.
Moreover, the hundred-year cultivation has also made his destiny gather strong and powerful virtues and causal energies that defy heaven. This energy has already made his fate unpredictable and it is impossible for him to reincarnate according to the normal cycle of cause and effect. Therefore, he must thoroughly integrate these causal energies in this life, otherwise, all obstacles will be eliminated and he will become an ordinary person in the next life.
Thinking of this, Zhan Yi felt extremely tired and couldn't help but scold in his heart. This damn hundred generations of karma are all cleared up in this life, can't die from busyness! It seems that I must understand the cycle of rebirth as soon as possible and figure out what I did in my past hundred lives.
As he was lost in thought, he suddenly saw several columns of black smoke rising from the eastern sky of the small town, and then like a dark cloud entering into Moer Town. This startled him, because he felt that the black smoke seemed to contain a strong aura of ghosts and demons, and it wasn't just one column.
This means that several demons and monsters have entered the town of Mole, look at the thick black smoke, it seems to be coming fiercely, but what are they doing here? Is it said that my own hundred-year-old body was discovered, but didn't Idle Cloud say that the aura on his body had been hidden?
Hesitation. The black smoke had already disappeared into the town, and at this time he heard the sound of knocking on the door. He opened the door to find that Dong Dabao was back. This guy rushed in excitedly and hugged Zhang Yi: "Boss, you're lucky now, you've made it."
His mouthful of wine breath made her want to vomit, she didn't know how much he had drunk. She couldn't help but frown and quickly turned her head to the side: "Dàbǎo, take your time, don't get excited."
"Hey, boss, what's wrong? You seem unhappy. Let me take a look." Dong Dabao looked at Xuan Yi's frowning face and thought he had some worries, so he couldn't help but turn his head in Xuan Yi's direction too.
"It's nothing, it's nothing, just get to the point already." Zhan Yi really didn't know how this kid could be so oblivious, with such a foul mouth and still wanting to talk to him face-to-face. He quickly turned his head away again.
"It's impossible, Boss. You must have something on your mind, or else you wouldn't be afraid to look at me. Tell me what happened, and I'll definitely help you solve it." Dong Dabao didn't know what was going through Xianyi's mind, but he also turned his head back to face him, asking with a sincere expression.
"Uh... fine, I'll just tell you the truth. Your mouth smells like crap right now and it's making me want to vomit. Can you please let go of me so I can talk?" Zhan Yi finally gritted his teeth and couldn't care about saving face for Dong Dabao anymore, he suddenly struggled free from him and dodged to one side.
Dong Dabao was stunned by Zhan Yi's words, and then he sniffed a few times, as if looking for some fresh air. After sniffing, he said with a puzzled face: "Boss, no, except for a bit of leek flavor mixed with a bit of wine flavor, there's nothing else."
"Ugh, I don't care what you taste like, but please don't get so close to me, I really can't bear it. Just sit there and talk." Zhan Yi couldn't help but say disdainfully, and in his heart, he understood a medical principle: people with bad breath are absolutely unable to smell it themselves.
"Hmm... okay, boss, you don't know how lucky you are this time. I just chatted with the people on this side and inquired about the Moer tribe's chief. Guess what?" Dong Dabao didn't dare to get close anymore, he could only sit on a stool more than two meters away from Zhan Yi, but the strong excitement on his face never faded.
"Stop selling mysteries and speak quickly." Zhan Yi said with a hint of annoyance, rolling his eyes.
"Hey, boss, why aren't you cooperating at all? Alright, you don't know that we came at the right time. The chief of the Moer tribe is holding a marriage gathering for his daughter these days. Whoever wins will not only get to marry his daughter but also obtain their town's treasure and inherit the position of chief in the future." Dong Dabao became more and more excited, as if he had already won the championship.
"What, a marriage meeting, and I have to marry his daughter? Dabao, are you sure what you heard is correct?" Zhan Yi was stunned for a moment, then quickly remembered Xianyun's words about a calamity, could it be that the red beauty he mentioned referred to this marriage meeting.
"Of course, boss, this thing is definitely not wrong. Now the whole town of Mohe knows about it, and I also heard that the daughter of the Mohe tribe's chief is named Maiyi, who is the most beautiful woman in the entire tribe. If you can get her, and then get the Five Elements Grass, wouldn't that be a double gain? Haha." Dong Dabao said with a self-satisfied smile.
"Hey, Big Treasure, I only want a simple life, not to marry a wife. What's the big deal? I'm a university student now, do you plan on me bringing my wife to school?" Zhan Yi's expression changed completely from excitement to annoyance.
He's not averse to beautiful women, and as an otaku university student, he even yearns for a passionate romance, followed by intense excitement every night. However, he knows that even if he were to obtain the Five Elements Grass, he would still need to find the Harmony Soul Water and the Yin-Yang Fruit, which are even harder to find than the Five Elements Grass. Especially the Yin-Yang Fruit, which is said to only exist in a place of extreme yin and yang, but without any specific location mentioned. He has no idea how to find it yet.
And if these few spiritual objects are not found, the evil energy of the thousand ghosts and monsters in his body will slowly invade his soul, making him half-human and half-demon, bloodthirsty by nature. In this case, how can he go on to talk about romance?
"Boss, you really don't want to marry a wife?" Dong Dabao didn't expect that after hearing the beauty, Zhan Yi would be so annoyed, and he secretly guessed Zhan Yi's sexual orientation.
"Of course not, I have to go to school. Now that I've married a wife, how can I still attend school?" Zhan Yi said matter-of-factly.
"Haha, boss, actually this matter is easy to handle. If you really don't want to, then don't force yourself. You can just transfer this suffering to me, help me get the championship title, and let me marry her. Don't worry, when I get the Five Elements Grass, I'll definitely give it to you. I only need Mo Er tribe's number one beauty, Mai Yi." Dong Da Bao started giving him ideas after understanding Xianyi's attitude.
