When Lin Yi heard the confident look of Yuebai Guangming Buddha, he knew that the name "Jade White Buddha" should be very powerful, otherwise there would be no need for the great monk to look so proud.
"Are you the Jade White Buddha?"
Lin Yi pretended to be shocked, and then immediately changed his words: "Who is the Jade White Buddha? I have never heard of it."
This half-coverage was just right. After all, he really didn't know who the Jade White Buddha was. If he said he had heard of it, the secret would be revealed in the subsequent conversation.
On the contrary, if he shows that he deliberately pretends not to know, it will make Yuebai Guangming Buddha think that he is deliberately covering up, and even think that he is also a reincarnation.
Yuebai Guangming Buddha was indeed fooled. He smiled to himself and did not bother with the issue with Lin Yi. In his opinion, the two of them had a tacit understanding.
There are some words that don’t need to be explained too clearly, everyone who understands them will understand them.
"Since fellow Taoist intends to conceal his identity, the poor monk won't ask any more questions. However, for tonight's matter, how about asking fellow Taoist to show your kindness and sell me a favor?"
Seeing his glaring eyes, Lin Yi softened his attitude a little and asked, "Why do you insist on protecting these monsters?"
This question seemed casual, but in fact he was quietly trying to find out the relationship behind the monk and what connection he had with Hanzhong County.
The Moonlight Buddha smiled softly and felt that tonight was definitely a safe night.
At their level, as long as they can negotiate, they will definitely be able to negotiate well. Besides, they are still the same kind of people, so there is no need to get into trouble over trivial matters.
"I'm not afraid of jokes from my Taoist friends. What I did tonight was just to get a chance to advance into the world."
"A Taoist friend as strong as him still needs to advance to the next level?"
Lin Yi was stunned on the spot.
Lin Yi has personally experienced the strength of the Moon White Light Buddha. Among the first-level experts, he is definitely ranked high. Even though Ji Yi has never heard of this person's name, the hidden masters are better than the outside masters.
Awesome, this happens all the time.
He has such strength, doesn’t he just go wherever he wants?
"There are certainly many twists and turns in this. I have lived in the Northern Dynasties for a long time. If I want to make friends with the emperor of the Southern Dynasties, I must have some opportunities."
Yuebai Guangming Buddha didn't explain too much to Ji Yi, and he was not a fool. There was no reason to tell all his details at once, as long as it was useful.
The reason why it is so complicated is because his identity is relatively sensitive.
He is the Vajra Protector of Thousand Buddhas Temple. There are only four major Dharma protectors in Thousand Buddhas Temple. Except for the abbot, the Dharma Protector has the highest status in the temple.
Thousand Buddha Temple is defined as a demon sect, and together with the other three major demon sects, it is known as the four major demon sects. In this case, he naturally cannot enter the official camp like other first-level powerhouses.
He didn't know that Xiao Zhao had a lot of demons and ghosts under his command, but which one of those demons and ghosts dared to show his identity in a big way?
The same goes for him. Even because of the different countries, it aroused Xiao Zhao's vigilance and it would be even more difficult for him to cooperate.
So, we started with other things and sold Xiao Zhao well, so that we could have the opportunity for further in-depth communication.
Lin Yi saw that there was a hidden meaning in the Buddha's words. He knew that the monk did not tell the whole story, so it was not easy to deceive him.
Also, there are so many stupid people in the world who can fool people and count their luck, but if they can't, there's nothing they can do about it.
The opponent's strength is indeed very strong, but that's all, and it's not worth spending too much thought on.
There is a small boss in my family who has lived for 15,000 years, and there is a big boss in the underworld who has practiced Taoism for 500,000 years. The monk in front of me has practiced Taoism for between 6,000 and 6,500 years.
A little stronger than him, but not much stronger.
Lin Yi simply said directly: "What result do you plan to achieve tonight?"
"The auction continues. If there are people you want to kill, fellow Taoist, just kill a few of them, but don't kill them all. Practitioners should always have a compassionate heart. Too much murderous intention will not be beneficial to cultivation!"
Lin Yi: “…”
His blood pressure is a bit high now. Facing those vicious demons, Ji Yi is not that angry. But when he heard the words of the Moon White Light Buddha, Ji Yi felt that his blood was rising and his brain was heating up.
He couldn't bear it anymore, he wanted to kill this monk now.
"Mercy? You asked me to give mercy to these monsters, but who will give them mercy to these people who are being auctioned?"
"Today's results are all due to the causes of the past. They are just destiny. Why do we monks need to interfere?"
"As a human being, how can you bear to see demons killing fellow humans?"
"Amitabha, my fellow Taoist, I am impressed. All things are living beings. How can I, the Buddha, be so compassionate and prefer one thing over another?"
What's more, all living beings reincarnate. One day, humans are the food on the plate, and the next day they will be reincarnated, and demons may turn into fish and meat to be the food on the plate. This is also a cycle of cause and effect."
Not to mention, the truth does have some truth, but in Lin Yi's eyes, this truth cannot be justified.
For example, if a wolf eats a hare, Ji Yi may pity the rabbit, but will not do anything to the wolf.
But if a wolf eats a person, the wolf must die.
This is Lin Yi’s truth.
"It's useless to talk without speculation. If I must protect these people today, how will you treat them?"
Yuebai Guangming Buddha also didn't expect that Lin Yi would fall out whenever he wanted to. He felt that his attitude was friendly enough and his reasoning was clear.
What's going on with this guy? He's stubborn?
Is it worth it to become enemies with a god and Buddha who is also the reincarnation of him for the sake of an unrelated mortal?
The clay figurine still has a third part of the fire nature, and the monk has not given up the anger in his heart. He talked to Lin Yi well, but he just felt that there was no need to have such a big conflict, and he was not afraid of Lin Yi.
Seeing how arrogant the other party was, Yuebai Guangming Buddha put his Zen staff on the ground and said calmly and confidently: "You can't protect these people."
The atmosphere became tense again. In fact, the onlookers could not hear the conversation between Lin Yi and Yuebai Guangming Buddha. Both of them were isolated by a special force field, but the audience could understand the atmosphere between the two.
From struggle to relaxation, it is clear that the conflict is now more acute. It is likely that the fight will start again, and it is estimated that the fight will be more fierce than the last time.
Some smart monsters no longer dared to watch the show, quickly distanced themselves and fled outside the venue, while others who were watching the fun and were not afraid of death continued to watch.
There are not many opportunities to watch strong men fight at close range.
They have the courage because the aftermath of the previous battle between the two was not very powerful. They only had the purest hand-to-hand combat, so the power would naturally not spread out and harm innocent people.
If there is a battle with other first-class warriors, a sword energy thrown out can stop the flow of the river, and the area within ten miles will be a danger zone.
The battle between Fu cultivators is even more terrifying. Under the random bombardment of spells, there is a danger zone for hundreds of miles. Those who are not at the first level will probably die on the spot if they are touched by the violent spiritual energy.
Moreover, this danger zone will still move, and watching the battle is a dead end.
Only this hand-to-hand fight is no different from the fight between ordinary warriors. No matter how fierce the person is, he will not hurt the person next to him.
For onlookers, watching this level of fighting is of great benefit.
Even if it's just an ordinary hand-to-hand fight, the punches of a first-level strongman will have a unique rhythm. Every punch and kick is in line with the way of heaven.
In short, if you can seize such an opportunity, don't miss it.
Wealth can be found in danger!
Ji Yi heard the threat in the words of Yuebai Guangming Buddha. If he took action today and forced Yuebai Guangming Buddha into a hurry, he would take action against these mortals. When the time comes, Ji Yi would still be unable to protect these mortals.
Is this kind of monk worthy of being called a Buddha?
Ji Yi took a deep breath, and his anger made his mind clearer.
"Today, I will not take these people away. Within three days, I will come and take your head."
In fact, it doesn’t take three days, just one day. Lin Yi said this to give himself a buffer time and also give the illusion of the Moon White Light Buddha.
He needs three more days.
Lin Yi's words were not only heard by the Moonlight Buddha, but also by the demons and ghosts present.
The Moon-white Guangming Buddha was stunned. Does this stupid young man really dare to say that?
Kill me within three days?
"Amitabha."
I believe you as a ghost!
Although he didn't believe it at all, his momentum couldn't be suppressed by Ji Yi.
"Aren't you afraid that I will kill all these people?"
"You can try."
After Lin Yi finished speaking, he raised his hand to summon the Demon-Slaying Sword. When the Demon-Slaying Sword showed its edge, all the monsters present trembled in fear.
"You can also try."
After threatening everyone domineeringly, Lin Yi picked up the dark clouds that were lurking to watch the battle, flickered, and disappeared.
Yuebai Guangming Buddha will not kill those hostages because his purpose is to maintain the auction and then take this opportunity to get in touch with Xiao Zhao.
If he killed all those people himself, how could he have a friendly exchange with Xiao Zhao?
This monk always bases his interests on everything and would never do such an impulsive thing.
Now, the most likely thing he can do is to shake people. Lin Yi has also learned that this monk is not a martial artist.
He will probably have reinforcements arriving in a few days.
If Lin Yi wanted to kill him by force, he would have to face enemies several times his own. If Lin Yi was too timid to come, the Moon White Light Buddha's goal would have been achieved.
It was Lin Yi who lost face, not him.
Lin Yi calculated all this and dared to leave with peace of mind.
As for the demons who were auctioned, Ji Yi didn't think they had the guts to do anything to those people. They couldn't help but ignore the warning issued by a first-level powerhouse.
Of course, the possibility of Yuebai Guangming Buddha coercing those demons to do bad things cannot be ruled out, so Ji Yi must make a quick decision.
He marked the four demons and monsters in the auction house, and it was very easy to track them, whether it was with his clairvoyance or his own nose.
By killing the four demons and monsters, Ji Yi can break through the upper limit, and then he can immediately return to the auction house and give the Moon White Light Buddha a big surprise.
You think I can accomplish something big in three days, but actually thirty minutes is enough.
Thirty minutes counts as three days!
With the aura locked, Ji Yi quickly found the location of the four demons and monsters.
They did not disperse and escape, but gathered in one place. Lin Yi looked in that direction and saw that the evil spirit was rising, which was where the Hanzhong Military Camp was.
It is obvious that this auction was indeed organized by the imperial court.
Lin Yi had already guessed that those royal concubines, princesses and the children of guilty ministers were there, and now he could confirm it.
Xiao Zhao is truly an unscrupulous person.
Why should such a person be the emperor?
It's a pity that Lin Yi tried to kill him several times, but was blocked by Taoist Guishan. However, Taoist Guishan still had good intentions.
It doesn't matter if a mortal kills the emperor, but if a monk kills the emperor, the backlash he has to endure is too great.
Ji Yi was actually not sure whether he could bear it, but what Xiao Zhao did made him so angry that he wanted to kill Xiao Zhao even if he risked his life.
Now, all this proves that Lin Yi's idea is correct. If Xiao Zhao does not die, he will have endless disasters.
Although Xiao Zhao is definitely not the only one who does evil in this court, as the emperor, if he is ruined at the top, he will also be ruined at the bottom.
At this moment, Lin Yi's heart was filled with thunder and lightning, and he wished he could immediately gather the masses to rebel.
But the most important thing right now is to prepare materials for overcoming the tribulation.
To Ji Yi, the foursome of demons and monsters were indeed just materials.
At this time, in the Hanzhong County military camp, the four demons and demons sought refuge in front of General He Qian.
Ji Ji is indeed ferocious, but no matter how ferocious he is, he will not dare to rush into the military camp, right?
Hanzhong County is an important border city. He Qianzhang has 30,000 soldiers under his command, including more than 10,000 elite and skilled warriors. This kind of force is enough for him to destroy the city and take out the stronghold.
Moreover, the military camp is a place protected by the luck of the court. If the monks come to play tricks, they must be careful not to be shot to death by random arrows.
Therefore, listening to the cries of the four demons, He Qian said nonchalantly: "Don't worry, I have a general guarding this place. If a dragon comes, you have to sit down, and if a tiger comes, you have to lie down."
He has soldiers under his command, so he is so confident.
In his heart, he also secretly looked down on this quartet of demons and monsters.
They are a bunch of rubbish and can't even handle small things well. If an auction fails, what a huge loss!
The auction in Hanzhong County was actually a tool for Xiao Zhao to make money. Xiao Zhao took 70% of it, and the remaining 30% could of course be distributed to local officials.
Although it is only 30%, this income is enough for several generations to live a well-fed life.
With this trick, Xiao Zhao can not only make money, but also control demons.
Do demons want to survive safely in the human world?
Yes, they can even eat people, but they can only be purchased through auctions and cannot be caught privately.
What should the monster do if he has no money?
It doesn't matter, the court will give you a way to make money. You can always make money by doing things for the court, smuggling goods and people to the Northern Dynasties. You only need to put in a little work and you can do whatever you want under the protection of the court. No matter what happens, you can still do it.
Seek help from local officers and soldiers.
Those righteous people who like to kill demons can't do anything to them. How can the demons refuse such a good thing?
Cooperation is a win-win situation for everyone!
As for the common people who have been reduced to fish and meat, who cares?
Of course, this kind of thing cannot be brought to light. If not, He Qiandu would like to lead his troops to encircle and suppress Lin Yi.
In tonight's game, nearly ten million gold was lost. Who can bear this?
Of course, the encirclement and suppression of Lin Yi is also purely rhetorical.
The military formation is not afraid of the first rank, and the first rank is not afraid of the military formation.
He Qian was sure that Lin Yi would not dare to come over, so he just thought about it.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, a red sword was shot into the camp from far to near. Before the four demons could react, the demon was nailed to the ground by the demon-slaying sword and let out a painful cry.
.
At the same time, a flash of lightning turned the ghost into ashes.
Suddenly, a young man appeared in the camp. He was holding a demon in one hand and holding a monster in the other. He looked at He Qian playfully and said, "Listen to what I just said, you are awesome, aren't you?"
