Daily life of slaying demons in the government

Chapter 214 Blind

"Brother Jiang? What are you doing?"

When Yang Qian saw Jiang Yun, he almost didn't recognize him at first sight.

Compared to the previous meeting, Jiang Yun was in a mess this time.

One of his eyes was missing, and his aura seemed stable, but in Yang Qian's perception, it was all just a facade, and his inner self was in a mess. Although he was not a doctor, he still had some common sense from his practice, and he understood that Jiang Yun's appearance was obviously due to his internal injuries that had not healed.

"Hey, sorry to have embarrassed you, Brother Yang Qian!" Jiang Yun didn't mind Yang Qian's stare. He sat next to Yang Qian with a smile, picked up the wine cup in front of him, raised it to signal, and drank it in one gulp.

After drinking three bowls of wine in a row, Jiang Yun wiped his mouth, sighed, and said with a self-deprecating smile: "Brother Yang Qian, I was self-righteous before and fooled you! I punished myself with three cups just now, I hope you won't blame me!"

Yang Qian smiled and said nothing. He just drank three bowls of wine with him and filled the wine bowl in front of Jiang Yun.

It was obvious that Jiang Yun had something to say, but he didn't interrupt.

Sure enough, Jiang Yun took out a stone from his storage bag and placed it on the table. It was the mark that Yang Qian had helped Jiang Yun to dig out from a strange stone.

"Brother Yang Qian, alas, there are always things in this world that are better thought than done. There is a story about this mark, do you want to hear it? Don't worry, I'm not setting a trap for you, just take it as a snack, how about it?"

"Okay!" Yang Qian raised his wine bowl and clinked it with Jiang Yun's. He was very curious, why did this bandit who had always been high-spirited since they met look so sentimental this time?
"Brother Yang Qian, do you still remember that I said I would go back to ask my senior master to sort out the matter after I got this stone seal? Hey, actually I lied to you. We no longer have senior masters in the Tianhan Sect. Including me, there are a total of 25 people in the Tianhan Sect. No, there are only 19 people now. I am the oldest among them. All the senior masters are dead.

A sect that has not even reached the Dan realm is not qualified to be accepted by the Immortal Alliance, let alone enjoy the mountain gate and various resources.

Even if we don't want to, we can only watch as our former mountain gate is taken away by the Immortal Alliance, and we become exiled from now on, and need to rely on robbery to barely gather the minimum resources needed for cultivation."

Yang Qian didn't understand why Jiang Yun suddenly said this, but he could tell that Jiang Yun wanted to open up to him.

Strictly speaking, Yang Qian felt that he and the other party did not have a very deep friendship. At most, they had done business once, and there was some mutual trust. It was not to the point of being close friends. But perhaps it was a foreshadowing of the subsequent words?

Yang Qian pondered in his heart.

However, it must be said that Jiang Yun's narration also allowed Yang Qian to re-understand the world of power that is superior to ordinary mortals from the perspective of these casual cultivators.

The Immortal Alliance is not a pushover. When they start fighting, there is no point in talking. What they fight is essentially the same as the thugs on the street. Whoever has the bigger fist can eat more and take more. On the contrary, people like Jiang Yun, who have lost their homes, can still keep their lives, and this is mostly because they are too weak and not cared about.

"But independent cultivators are not without the opportunity to rise again."

After a pause, Jiang Yun picked up the stone seal on the table again and asked Yang Qian, "Brother Yang Qian, have you heard of the secret realm?"

Yang Qian was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "I saw it in a book. It said that a long time ago, the gods fought with each other and shattered the heavens and the gods. What about the fragments of the world that were finally scattered?"

The book Yang Qian was talking about was none other than the same book, "Ten Yuan Strange Stories", which he once sneered at and thought was full of nonsense, but now regards as a classic.

Jiang Yun didn't know which book Yang Qian learned this from. Although he was a little surprised, the strength and talent shown by Yang Qian made him subconsciously think that it was the Five Thunder Palace that treated Yang Qian differently and paved the way for these secrets of the cultivation world.

"Brother Yang Qian is right. It's just that there are many different opinions about the origin of the secret realm. But no matter how the secret realm came about, it is a place that cultivators from all over the world flock to. There are techniques, pill recipes, spiritual stones, spiritual medicines, magic tools and even magic treasures in the secret realm. As long as you have enough skills and enough luck, the secret realm can change your fate.

Now, except for a very small number of great sects that have lasted for thousands of years, the rest of the immortal sects have all developed slowly relying on the gains from the secret realm.

It’s just that although the secret realms are good, there are too few of them. During the long period of change, most of them have been controlled by the Immortal Alliance. Only some inconspicuous and wandering small secret realms can fall into the hands of cultivators outside the Immortal Alliance. "

Having said that, Jiang Yun threw the stone seal in his hand to Yang Qian.

Yang Qian reached out to take it and asked curiously, "Brother Jiang, are you saying that this thing is related to the secret realm?"

To be honest, Yang Qian found it a bit mysterious.

How come you're talking about secret realms? Where's your heart-to-heart talk? In the end, you're talking about legendary things?

But no matter how mysterious it is, Yang Qian's heart still beat faster when the matter came to words.

"That's right, Brother Yang Qian understood it immediately. This piece of stone is the key to a secret place. My eye and the six brothers in the sect were all lost in that secret place."

hiss!
Yang Qian subconsciously leaned back in his chair. He never expected that Jiang Yun would come to him again and give him such explosive news as soon as they met.

true or false?

Seeing Yang Qian didn't say anything, Jiang Yun continued, "The previous stone ball was accidentally obtained by the previous leader of Tianhan Sect. After years of searching, he finally found the possible range of the secret realm. But he couldn't find the door. It was only when my master's generation guessed that the key to entering the secret realm was the key. And the key might be related to the pattern on the stone ball.

And because the stone ball is extremely solid, the master guessed that it might have been left by a strong weapon cultivator who had comprehended the Way of Mind. Therefore, he thought that the stone ball might contain a secret that could only be deciphered by a cultivator who had also comprehended the Way of Mind.

Later, the sect was gone, and apart from some of the classics that we brought out, there was only the stone ball."

"Why are you looking for me?" Yang Qian calmed himself down and asked a question.

Jiang Yun did not shy away from the question and said with a smile, "You have a low level of cultivation and little experience, but you also possess the sword intent. Who else should we look for if not you? After the Tianhan Sect was destroyed, you are the only one we have encountered in hundreds of years. You don't think we dare to take the stone ball to the immortal sect for help, do you?"

To put it bluntly, people think Yang Qian is a stupid guy with strong arms and is easy to fool.

Now that it's said, the meaning becomes very clear.

"Brother Jiang, just tell me straight. I'm tired of hearing you go around in circles."

"Hahaha, brother Yang Qian is still so quick-witted. I won't beat around the bush. It's too dangerous to force our way into that secret realm. We need brother Yang Qian to help calm the situation."

"Because of the sword intention?"

"Yes, that's why. I think Brother Yang Qian might be able to find a lot of opportunities related to sword intent in that secret realm."
