Just when he was expecting this, an unexpected incident occurred.
A figure suddenly jumped out. This person's face was sallow and his muscles were withered, and his eyes seemed to be sunken.
"I've been waiting for decades, and I was almost cut off by a few young boys!"
Yang Xingyan looked up and saw that the man had intercepted the stone essence before him and held it firmly in his hand.
"Old Xu?" Yang Xingyan shouted.
They knew the person coming, and they were somewhat familiar with him.
It was Lao Xu who worked as a coolie with Li Hu. He usually moved some things to make ends meet. He had no children and was single.
I didn't expect him to appear suddenly this time. It was unexpected.
I don't usually show off my skills, but I didn't expect that I was also a master.
Yang Xingyan stopped in the air and stared at the old man with extremely sharp eyes. Is it worth waiting for decades for a mere stone spirit?
Before breaking through to the heavenly realm, no matter how high one's realm is, one's lifespan is only a hundred years, or at most one hundred and fifty years old.
If a great cultivator of the Earth Realm spends decades guarding this place, there is probably a big problem.
Instinctively, he turned his attention to the man in black behind him.
The man smiled confidently, as if he had expected it.
"What's going on?" Yang Xingyan asked with a bad look on his face.
Ye Baiyi said calmly: "It's nothing, it's probably an old incident."
Yang Xing said: "How to say?"
Ye Baiyi said: "It is estimated that this hilltop was cut off with brute force as rumored in the town, and the person who spread the rumor and cut off the hilltop were both the same people.
If you guessed correctly, it should be this person right now. "
"But what is his purpose? Just for this thing? It's not worth spending decades." Yang Xingyan asked.
Ye Baiyi said with a cold face: "It's worth it, why isn't it worth it?"
"You have been in the town for many days and haven't you noticed that this town is different? People in this town basically have no talent for cultivation. They seem to have lost this path by birth."
Yang Xingyan suddenly remembered that this was indeed the case. There had been basically no fights between the three of them since they came to this town. Even if they had, they were easily suppressed by him. Facing him one by one was like seeing an immortal in the sky.
But it’s also strange, if they really respect themselves as immortals, why don’t they dare to offend them, and why don’t they dare to be bold and courteous to them?
This is unconventional.
Even if they don't agree, they shouldn't give up so easily.
Just listen to Ye Baiyi continue to say: "It's very simple, the lifeblood of this town is in someone's hands."
"And it's not humans who are holding this lifeline, but spirits who are successful cultivators."
Lao Xu turned his gaze to the two of them, his eyes venomous.
Ye Baiyi's words seemed to reveal his bottom line word by word.
Yang Xingyan looked at the turtle on Li Hu's head and suddenly understood something.
This place can actually give birth to thousands of years of cold jade, it is a place with rich spiritual energy, and it is also a place with strong luck, otherwise there would not be a "high official".
But there is only that person. After that person, no matter how much this town moves up, no one can get out.
Whether it’s practicing or studying.
Ye Baiyi looked at him levelly and said: "I said that in such a small town, there are not only monsters, but also thousands of years of cold jade, and even stone spirits born from heaven and earth.
And after becoming a high official, your luck should not be so weak.
Unexpectedly, he was secretly cut off and became a target. "
Lao Xu narrowed his eyes and said: "Fellow Taoist, that piece of Millennium Cold Jade originally belonged to me. Now that I have given it to you, it is logical that I should take this piece of stone. I also hope that fellow Taoist will not take it." Greedy."
Ye Baiyi said expressionlessly: "Am I insatiable? Please understand, it was you who first forcibly cut off the cultivation path of everyone in this town for your own selfish desires, and then forcibly accumulated these fortunes together, and finally With constant indoctrination from this mountain range, these two heavenly treasures were finally born.
If my guess is right, that stone spirit contains the luck of everyone in this town, so you have to take this stone spirit away even if you face me. "
Lao Xu was not angry at being exposed, "Fellow Taoist, you are joking. I have no grievances with you in the past, and we have no enmity recently. Why should I be afraid of facing you?"
Ye Baiyi pointed at him and said: "The reason is of course very simple. The creatures transformed by your beasts, also known as demons, have demon pills in their bodies, which are of great benefit to us human practitioners. .
From the first day I came here, you felt a slight crisis. You felt that I was coming for you, so you hid it very well. "
Lao Xu said nothing and looked ugly.
"Later, you secretly approached my student again, not just because you wanted to find out my past from his mouth, so that you could know more about it. You thought you were hiding it very deeply, but in fact, I saw everything and didn't want to say anything."
Lao Xu was really frightened. This man made his details clear in just a few words. Although he didn't say it clearly, it was no different from what he said clearly.
"So you want to kill me? Return luck to the town?"
Ye Baiyi shook his head and said: "You may not understand me, but I am not a person who likes to meddle in other people's business. It is your business between you and the town. You can cut off their luck and lock them in this land and water." , this is the karma you have planted, no matter how high your cultivation is in the future, you will definitely pay the price.
My purpose from the beginning was very simple, to lay a foundation for this unsatisfied student like me. "
Lao Xu's face was gloomy and uncertain. He couldn't tell whether Ye Baiyi's words were true or false, but he told him for the first time that it was true!
"So?" Lao Xu asked.
Ye Baiyi looked at him quietly and said, "I'll give you a chance. Put down what you have in your hands. I won't kill you."
Yang Xingyan said quickly: "Isn't this your character? Will you still kill me?"
Very incomprehensible.
Ye Baiyi said calmly: "What's the benefit of killing him? Will the people in this town get luck again? Don't you think it's good now? Basically, people in this town don't have much luck." There are no deep differences between the rich and the untouchables. Everyone is on the same level. Although there are differences, they are not too big.
If he is killed, this kind of luck will return to the town, and the slightly influential people in the town will begin to expand, and students like Man'er, Tong Yi, and Yun Xiaoxing will be affected even if they are extremely lucky. Suppress and slowly distance yourself.
The town will eventually become like the outside world. "
Yang Xingyan and Lao Xu looked at the man in black like a monster. Where did this evil theory come from?
The way to keep a small town the same is to suppress its growth, which completely breaks their understanding.
“So, that’s the difference between me and you.
I prefer others to call me, madman, devil..."
