Chapter 26 Threatening the old monk!
Chapter 26 Threatening the old monk!
“What happened to the green bee?”
Zhao Yi returned to the front hall and asked with a puzzled look on his face when he saw Huang Ying who was studying the ring.
Just a moment ago, Zhao Yi accurately went to visit Qing Bee’s injury, but he didn’t expect to eat a closed door directly.
Green Bee’s attitude was so bad that through a door Zhao Yi could feel the low air pressure emanating from the room.
When Huang Ying heard this, she put down the ring in her hand and said with a puzzled expression, “Master, could it be that you really don’t know?”
“Know what?” Zhao Yi asked in disbelief.
Huang Ying carefully observed Zhao Yi’s expression, and when she saw that he didn’t look like he was lying, her eyes instantly narrowed.
She glanced towards Green Bee’s room and lowered her voice, “Green Bee is jealous!”
Zhao Yi became more and more confused, “Jealous of what?”
Huang Ying said, “Of course it’s about you finding Boss Yao to be the tripod!”
Zhao Yi raised his eyebrows, “You mean to say that Qing Bee is secretly in love with this prince, and she’s jealous because she knows that I’m going to find Yao Qing as a cauldron?”
“That’s not true.” Huang Ying directly broke Zhao Yi’s fantasy.
Huang Ying said, “Qing Bee likes men who stand on top of the sky and the earth, master you’ve been saddled with that surname Su’s side before and served him without a bit of manliness, she doesn’t like your type of man!”
Zhao Yi: “……”
Is this something that can be said directly?
Does he not want to lose face?
Zhao Yi didn’t have the heart to say, “Since Qing Bee doesn’t like me, why is she still jealous?”
“Because Green Bee is your rightful stovepipe!” Huang Ying said with a straight face.
“Green Bee was selected back then to prepare you as a stove tripod!”
“Qing Bee cultivates the supremely masculine Dragon Jiao Gong, a woman cultivates the supremely masculine gong method, and pure Yin true essence is a great tonic for men!”
“You see her name, Green Bee! For the purpose of combining all her strengths into one!”
“Qing Bee has been preparing for you for so many years, it’s not easy to wait until you’re going to practice, but it turns out that you’ve replaced that inexplicable Boss Yao as a furnace.”
“It would be strange if the Green Bee wasn’t angry!”
Zhao Yi: “……”
Zhao Yi was very confused.
It’s not like it’s a good thing to be a furnace for someone.
Didn’t you see Yao Qing’s face darken when she heard that Zhao Yi asked her to be a stove?
Huang Ying looked at Zhao Yi’s face and said, ”Master, you don’t understand Green Bee. She has a death-defying nature, and she was taught from a young age that it is her mission to sacrifice for you. If you let Yao Qing replace her, she will break down!”
Zhao Yi was just about to speak when out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly saw a thin silhouette outside the window.
With a flutter in his heart, he nodded and said, “Then let’s still use the Green Bee!”
“That Yao Qing’s origin is unknown, and I can’t trust her, so it would be bad if she takes advantage of the situation to harm me then!”
“In comparison, it’s still the Green Bee that’s the most trustworthy!”
“If there’s anyone in this world who won’t betray me, then it must be Green Bee!”
When Zhao Yi finished speaking, out of the corner of his eye, he looked out the window again, and the silhouette standing there had already disappeared.
Huang Ying tsked twice: “Master really favors Green Bee, the servant girl can’t help but feel jealous!”
Zhao Yi ignored her.
Retracting her gaze, Zhao Yi looked at the ring on the table and asked, “Find any clues?”
Hearing the main event, Huang Ying’s face instantly became serious.
She explained, “His Highness the Grand Prince placed a restriction on the ring, and this restriction is gradually weakening over time. The maidservant has just inspected it, and the restriction is about to disappear, and what’s inside will soon be revealed.”
Speaking of this, Huang Ying curiously asked, “Master, do you know what’s inside the ring?”
Zhao Yi nodded, “I only know that there is a remnant soul inside, I don’t know exactly what it is!”
As soon as his words fell, he saw the ring on the table quiver for a moment, then a pale monk in an earth-colored monk’s robe emerged from the ring.
The old monk’s body was almost transparent, and it looked like he had been injured under Zhao Coronation before, and his soul was about to be broken up.
Seeing Zhao Yi, the old monk froze for a moment, clasped his hands together, and called out a Buddha’s name.
“Amitabha Buddha!”
It was the first time Huang Ying had seen the residual soul hosted in the ring, and she curiously surveyed the old monk, her gaze filled with a searching look.
Zhao Yi was afraid that she would play with the old monk and hurriedly said, “I still have a use for this old monk, I can’t let you take it and play with it!”
Huang Ying let out an oh-so-splendid sigh of disappointment.
The old monk’s soul body trembled a bit, looking at Huang Ying with a blank stare.
Why did this female child look disappointed?
What did she want to do?
The monk was already so unlucky, what else did she want to toss at him?
“Amitabha!”
The old monk recited another Buddha’s name.
He turned his head to look at Zhao Yi and said with a calm expression, “Scholar, I wonder what happened to my inferior disciple?”
The old monk was smart.
After he saw Zhao Yi in front of him, he immediately projected what had happened.
“That grand prince was sent there by you, right?”
The old monk had previously thought that Zhao Coronation had gone to seek revenge on him, but now it seemed like it should be something else.
“Big brother was the one I invited there!” Zhao Yi nodded and admitted.
He looked at the old monk, pondered for a moment, and said in a deep voice, “I actually could have lied to you that he was dead so that I could cut you off. But on second thought it’s better to forget about it, because I also want you, Master, to be honest with me.”
Saying this, Zhao Yi opened the door and said, “Master, how about we make a deal?”
“Amitabha!”
The old monk clasped his hands together, his face not sad or happy.
“Scholar please speak.”
Zhao Yi was satisfied with the old monk’s cooperation and said with a straight face, “You tell me the purpose of that dead egg and I’ll let you go to your disciple, what does the master think?”
Amitabha Buddha!
The old monk folded his hands, “Scholar, if the poor monk refuses, I don’t know what will happen?”
Zhao Yi asked instead of answering, “Master, if I’m not mistaken, your soul body should be attached to the ring and unable to separate out, right?”
“Amitabha Buddha.” The old monk recited another Buddhist chant.
Zhao Yi raised his hand to interrupt him and reminded, “Master, monks don’t lie, you’re not thinking of breaking your precepts, are you?”
The old monk paused for a moment.
After a long time, he slowly said, “The monk’s guess is right, the poor monk’s soul body really can’t leave this ring!”
“That’s fine.” Zhao Yi smiled and nodded.
“If you refuse, I’ll throw the ring into the cesspool.”
“Although I may never be able to crack the secret of the dead egg by doing this, it does ensure that no one else will be able to get it, so it’s not a loss for me.”
“On the contrary, it’s you, Master, who might have to work hard and spend the future with maggots in the pickled disgusting things.”
After finishing, Zhao Yi looked at the old monk’s almost transparent soul body and added:
“Master’s soul body looks weak, it looks like it shouldn’t last long before the soul flies away.”
“That’s a good thing, at least the master won’t have to be accompanied by maggots for many long years!”
“There’s just one thing, Master, you still managed to retain a trace of your residual soul after death, so you must have been a great person in life, if you were to pass away in a pile of pickled disgusting things, it doesn’t sound as if it would be very elegant!”
“But Master is an accomplished monk, you shouldn’t care about such minutiae, perhaps you can transform those maggots with your profound Buddhist teachings!”
Speaking of which, Zhao Yi looked at the old monk and said in a good-natured manner:
“Master, do you still want to refuse?”
