Comprehension against the sky, creating the Five Thunders in the real world
Chapter 868 Turbid and Unbearable
Could it be that they are really the kind of people who lust after women? They shouldn't be so superficial.
Zhao Si thought to himself that he didn't intend to expose this dirty deal on the spot. Everyone here was a decent person, and it wouldn't be right to expose such a flesh trade under these circumstances.
It's bad for everyone.
The saying goes, "Don't wash your dirty linen in public."
Lin Beichen and the others were also nearby.
Therefore, Zhao Si planned to explain the matter later.
He still harbored a sliver of hope, a hope that he was just overthinking things.
Of course, Zhao Si also knew that he had to be careful in the following actions.
He had to ensure the safety of Lin Beichen and the other two. Zhang Wupo's threat to take action was no joke. At least in Zhao Si's perception, he had already faintly sensed a hint of murderous intent.
Don't even say it.
Lin Beichen also happened to sense this murderous aura.
The group soon arrived at the location of the dragon vein.
The area where the dragon vein is located is very quiet, and everything seems normal.
It seems like there's no problem? But in reality, is there really no problem?
"You two will stay by my side from now on. Be careful, these people around us might try to harm the three of us. Be on your guard and make sure nothing goes wrong."
"Don't worry, I will take good care of my safety."
"I won't hold you back."
Wang Baozi knew that he was the weakest of the three.
Lin Beichen said these words mainly to remind him.
He was well aware of this, and he didn't think he would hold these two back.
If he were really in danger, he wouldn't be a pushover; he's not someone who's afraid of trouble. If Wang Baozi were truly afraid, he wouldn't have made those remarks. He's actually a radical youth.
"Don't worry, I'll make sure you're safe later."
“I brought you here, so I will definitely bring you back safely. That’s my promise to you.” Lin Beichen could naturally sense the fearlessness in Wang Baozi’s tone.
He never imagined that Wang Baozi would lose his life here.
Moreover, he was only describing the worst-case scenario.
Whether things will actually develop to that point is hard to say.
"Hehehe, didn't you say there was something wrong with the dragon vein? Look at it now, the dragon vein is clearly perfectly fine." Zhang Wupo was the first to step forward and gave Lin Beichen a lecture.
“You need to give an explanation for this. This is a slander against Longhu Mountain.”
“Longhu Mountain is not a place you can slander at will. You have to take responsibility for what you said before.”
He was aggressive, but Li Mingyue, who was beside him, remained silent.
Li Mingyue knew in her heart that there was indeed something wrong with the dragon vein, but the Taoist priests of Longhu Mountain had not yet noticed it.
However, it was only a matter of time before it was discovered.
Seeing Zhang Wupo's overbearing attitude, others quickly echoed his sentiments.
"You can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want. He previously suspected that there was something wrong with the dragon vein of our Longhu Mountain. At the time, I treated him as a guest, so I didn't make a big deal out of it. I just want to ask, what evidence do you have? Without evidence, what makes you say that there is something wrong with the dragon vein of our Longhu Mountain? Humph."
That makes sense.
Many Taoist priests on Longhu Mountain glared at him angrily.
It's understandable that they want an explanation.
“That’s right, you need to give us an explanation. You said there’s something wrong with the dragon vein of Longhu Mountain, what exactly is going on?” Finally, Zhang Wuqing spoke. As soon as he spoke, everyone else fell silent.
It is evident that Zhang Wuqing enjoys considerable prestige among the crowd.
Everyone believed him completely.
"Don't rush. Can you really be sure the dragon vein is safe right now? We've only just begun. Let's take another look." Lin Beichen remained calm, showing no sign of panic.
Actually, he had nothing to panic about.
He was 100% certain that there was something wrong with the dragon vein of Longhu Mountain.
This is an unchangeable fact, and if he could, he would also hope that the dragon vein of Longhu Mountain would remain intact. But the key issue is that the people of Japan have already extended their reach into Longhu Mountain.
"What, you don't believe me?"
Seeing that these people had no reaction, Lin Beichen's lips curled into a disdainful sneer.
His expression was undoubtedly a slap in the face to everyone.
Everyone suppressed their anger and refrained from attacking him.
In this desolate wilderness, if one or two people were to die, no one would know.
"Since we've come this far, let's go and take a look at where the dragon vein is located."
Qingfeng stepped forward, believing that Lin Beichen was not the type to speak carelessly.
Since things have come to this point, Lin Beichen must have some basis for his claim; perhaps the dragon vein really does have a problem. Even if there's no problem, Qingfeng has decided to protect Lin Beichen.
Lin Beichen's contributions to them cannot be ignored.
Moreover, Lin Beichen is a member of the military.
Even if Lin Beichen is a bastard, they can't kill him here.
"Yes, since everyone's here, let's not worry about the time it takes."
Yang Liu also stood up to support Qingfeng.
Zhao Si nodded but did not offer any opinion.
"Hmph, the three of you are still on his side. You are supposed to be from Longhu Mountain, so why are you siding with outsiders?" Zhang Wupo said angrily.
He didn't understand why these three guys would help outsiders.
Back in Longhu Mountain, we were all good brothers and sisters who loved each other.
Qingfeng and Yangliu ignored Zhang Wupo's words, but Zhao Si couldn't help but laugh out loud. He was also having a hard time suppressing his laughter.
Previously, Zhao Si had witnessed Zhang Wupo and Li Mingyue's illicit affair.
Although he felt that the matter was still unresolved, he actually knew in his heart that it was most likely true.
Zhang Wupo wanted to kill these three outsiders.
This is not the way Longhu Mountain operates. Since ancient times, they have adhered to the belief that "it is a pleasure to have friends coming from afar," and there has never been a precedent of killing guests from afar in the deep mountains. Zhao Si would absolutely not allow this, and he would definitely stand on Lin Beichen's side.
To be precise, he doesn't take sides.
He simply followed the path in his heart.
"What's so funny? Am I wrong? You three are just xenophobic idiots..." Zhang Wupo almost blurted out an insult in a moment of carelessness.
As one of the candidates for sect leader, it is really inappropriate for him to say such things.
Fortunately, he noticed it in time.
"Ahem, no matter what, we are all fellow disciples of Longhu Mountain. Since the three of you are all speaking up for this guy, let's go take another look. It's not far anyway."
Zhang Wupo said these polite words to save face.
Standing next to Zhang Wupo, Li Mingyue stomped her feet in anger.
Judging from the previous situation, it would be extremely difficult for Lin Beichen to lead the people of Longhu Mountain to the depths of the dragon vein. However, Zhang Wupo, for the sake of his face, gave Lin Beichen a way out, and his words carried considerable weight.
After he said that, Zhang Wuqing had no objection.
In this way, no one else will say anything.
After all, Qingfeng, Yangliu, and Zhao Si already had considerable influence.
The three of them spoke up for Lin Beichen, and Zhang Wupo didn't object. Besides...
Just as Lin Beichen and the others said, since they're all here, a little longer won't make a difference.
"How could this be?! Uncle-Master, Uncle-Master, what's wrong? What happened?" They hadn't gone far when they saw a torn Taoist robe by the roadside.
Immediately afterwards, they found a lifeless person near the Taoist robe.
It was their senior martial uncle.
The old Taoist priest was about seventy years old, with a full head of white hair. At this moment, his body was emaciated, like a dried corpse, and it looked like he had been dead for four or five days.
This is a bad sign. It confirms Lin Beichen's earlier prediction.
No one had any interest in targeting Lin Beichen anymore.
Perhaps their previous behavior was indeed disgraceful to the Taoist tradition.
But upon realizing that the dragon vein might truly be in trouble, they all reverted to their proper Taoist priest demeanor. Moreover, they had to admit that Lin Beichen was able to discover the problem with the dragon vein of Longhu Mountain. Was it his doing? Obviously not.
Lin Beichen could never be the mastermind behind this.
If he were the mastermind, there would be no need for him to bring them here.
So it seems that Lin Beichen does indeed have some real skills.
"Our martial uncle is dead. There must be something wrong with the dragon vein. Let's go check it out right away."
Zhang Wuqing's expression was one of profound grief.
He gave Lin Beichen a deep look; the current situation was exactly as Lin Beichen had described.
The dragon vein may really be in trouble.
How did this guy figure that out?
Could it be that his cultivation level is higher than that of everyone present?
He was only in his early twenties, so young, yet he possessed such profound cultivation.
This was really hard for him to understand.
Zhang Wuqing considered himself exceptionally talented within the Taoist community, yet he failed to notice the problem with the dragon vein, a problem that was discovered by an outsider.
It's hard to explain no matter how you look at it.
There is only one explanation: Lin Beichen's strength is beyond everyone's imagination.
"We were too hasty before, please don't take it to heart. Now I want to ask you properly, how much else do you know? Please tell me everything."
Zhang Wuqing walked up to Lin Beichen and asked solemnly.
He's no longer dwelling on the past.
"Heh, didn't you distrust my older brother before? Why are you asking me about his situation now? Is this how you treat guests at Longhu Mountain?" Yu Feng wasn't so easy to talk to.
Before Lin Beichen could even speak, he had already taken the blame.
"Aren't the Taoist priests of Longhu Mountain very powerful? Do they still need my elder brother's help?"
"Heh, what use are the Taoist priests of Longhu Mountain? I think they're just a bunch of good-for-nothings who eat off others."
Wang Baozi, who finally had a chance to speak, also relentlessly belittled him.
Wang Baozi is actually a very kind person and he is quite respectful to the Taoist priests of China.
You can tell from his behavior when he first met Lin Beichen.
But these Taoist priests on Longhu Mountain have really gone too far.
Even though Wang Baozi has a good temper, he couldn't hold back anymore.
"..."
Zhang Wuqing's face was very ugly; he hadn't expected to be turned away.
Before Lin Beichen could speak, the two minor characters beside him started chattering.
To be honest, he was in the wrong and couldn't refute it.
Fortunately, Lin Beichen didn't make sarcastic remarks, so there was still a chance for things to turn around.
Zhang Wuqing knew he was wrong, so he didn't say anything. He just looked at Lin Beichen with sincere eyes, his eyes filled with apology for what had happened.
"It was my fault before, and it was also my fellow disciples who were wrong."
"I apologize to you, and I apologize to you on their behalf. Now is not the time to be emotional. Let's talk about the previous conflicts later. Please tell me the truth."
Having said all that, Lin Beichen had no intention of remaining silent any longer.
He never intended to bother with these people.
"Just as I said before, there is a problem with the dragon vein of your Longhu Mountain."
"I have a guess about the specific reason, but I'm not sure."
Lin Beichen told the truth.
He really wasn't sure what had happened.
However, one thing is certain: the influence of Japan (the country of Japan) is definitely involved here.
"Don't waste time here, seal this place off first."
"Find a few top-notch fighters to come in with me."
Lin Beichen glanced at Zhang Wuqing, then turned his gaze to Qingfeng, Yangliu, and Zhao Si.
He trusted these three friends more than Zhang Wuqing.
"Okay, okay, let's do as this friend says."
Zhang Wuqing issued the orders to the others without hesitation.
It's practically impossible for Lin Beichen to give them orders.
No matter what situation they were in, their pride as Taoist priests of Longhu Mountain would not allow them to bow down to Lin Beichen.
But in fact, they were wrong.
Upon hearing Zhang Wuqing's order, the others immediately sprang into action.
"I misunderstood you before. I will apologize to you properly after this is over."
Zhang Wuqing said.
At the same time, he felt incredibly fortunate.
Fortunately, three people in their Longhu Mountain team still had faith in Lin Beichen. If everyone in Longhu Mountain had looked down on Lin Beichen, the consequences would have been unpredictable.
They might not even bother to investigate.
“I don’t care too much about these things, but I want to tell you something.”
"Whether I can gain your trust or not, I am absolutely certain of this. I can guarantee it with my life." Lin Beichen glanced at Li Mingyue not far away; he was ready to close the net.
Previously, the concern was that it might alert the enemy.
There's no need to worry now.
Now, it's time to close the net.
"We can vouch for it with our lives."
Qingfeng and Yangliu stated their positions without hesitation.
Zhao Si hesitated for a moment, then made the same decision. He inadvertently noticed Lin Beichen's gaze flicker towards Li Mingyue, and it was this action that convinced him that Lin Beichen was telling the truth. He thought to himself, "It seems this brother has also noticed the problem."
"Perhaps he had already discovered the problem."
"They just didn't say it at first, ha, how ridiculous."
Zhao Si found it laughable that things had developed to this point, but he had no right to laugh at others.
Why didn't Lin Beichen explain the situation clearly from the beginning?
It's because he knows that even if he tells them, they won't believe him.
"Go ahead and tell me, I'll definitely believe you."
"Even if you misjudge, I won't blame you." At this point, Zhang Wuqing no longer questioned Lin Beichen's words; he unhesitatingly chose to unconditionally believe Lin Beichen.
Li Mingyue also overheard Zhang Wuqing and Zhang Wupo's conversation.
Moreover, she noticed that Lin Beichen had been staring at her with a meaningful look. Perhaps feeling guilty, Li Mingyue felt that her identity had been exposed.
"I'm not feeling well."
Li Mingyue feigned weakness.
She planned to use a clever escape tactic to leave this place first.
Seeing Li Mingyue covered in sweat, Zhang Wupo also became anxious. (End of Chapter)
