Yu Ci’s question is very pointed.
Yechi's expression remained unchanged, but he did not respond immediately. Instead, he thought about it and said, "What does Master Jiuyan mean by this?"
Yu Ci did not answer immediately. He looked up and looked at Guiyan over there. He had almost finished collecting the poisonous slurry nearby, so he said first: "Don't talk here, let's go and see those 'letters of nomination'? By the way, You can also tidy up the surrounding environment.”
At this moment, Yechi finally understood the previous confusion: wasn’t Jiuyan’s certificate of nomination the same as the Ten Fierce Men of the East China Sea? Those guys who were supposed to be hundreds of miles away?
But the more this happened, the more surprised she became, even diluting Yu Ci's sharp questions.
This is exactly the effect Yu Ci wants. The issue he will discuss with Yechi next is not at the level that a "perfumer" should deal with, so he needs some more "capital".
Ye Chi did not refuse. She did not need to read the petition, but Yu Ci’s reason for “cleaning up the environment” was very sufficient. If the poison carried by the Ten Fierce People of the East China Sea spread and spread into densely populated areas, it would cause serious consequences. The consequences will be unimaginable.
The two set off, first going to the corpse of the man who was first killed by the Taiyi Evil-Slaying Talisman. Guiyan followed behind, collecting poisonous liquid along the way.
Yechi looked back twice, obviously very interested in the relationship between Guiyan and him.
The first corpse was nothing interesting. After arriving at the place, Yu Ci inspected it for a while and then brought up the topic: "Actually, it's not interesting. I just want to talk to Guizong about something practical."
At first it sounded like an exorbitant price, but Yechi didn't misunderstand it. She lowered her head slightly and said, "Please enlighten me."
“It’s not an instruction, it’s a reality!”
Yu Ci scratched his bald head and looked a little embarrassed: "I'm not afraid to tell you that when it comes to refining the raw materials of spices, I'm sure that no one in the world can do it better than me. But now In terms of production, my level is really not top-notch. I am not sure whether I can make sea incense... I think your sect may also have some doubts, but I don't know if you are ready for this?"
Ye Chi was startled for a moment, his expression was quite calm; "Thank you, Master, for reminding me. I don't want to hide it from Master, but I have already found a master of perfumery on the island, but the possibility of that master's success in making it is not more than Two percent."
Yu Ci nodded: "The making of cross-sea incense requires the blessing of the divine master's method. There are many restrictions. It can be 20%, which is not bad. If the helper can improve the success rate, I will also be happy to do it. But that’s not all I want to say.”
Leafpool appeared to be listening intently.
"What I want to say is that crossing the sea is not a permanent solution, and it may not even be a temporary solution. If this is your only plan, I don't think so."
Ye Chi was silent for a moment, then said: "Master, the most difficult thing is calamity. In the face of natural calamity, how can there be any permanent solution in the world? Perhaps only the calamity-free swordsman of the year can truly be unafraid of natural calamity. ..."
Yu Ci interrupted her and said: "Qu Wujie finally ended up in a self-imprisonment, and it is difficult to have a happy ending; recently, the True Lord Donghua also lost his body and family; if you always place your hopes on someone , whether it is Ye Island Master or the Half-Mountain Sword Immortal, will the final result be better than Qu and Lu?"
"..."
"I know what you are thinking. As long as Lord Ye Island is here, the foundation of Banshan Island will not fall; as long as Banshan Sword Immortal recovers from his injuries, that will be the atmosphere of the big sect, and no one dares to mess with it. To you, this It’s a fundamental solution, right?”
Yu Ci shook his head: "So your most basic requirement is to keep Ye Island Master safe. For this, it really only requires Guo Haixiang. Although I dare not guarantee it, I can do my best. But I It is said that it will take at least more than ten years for the Banshan Immortal Sword to recover... "So even if Ye Island Master is fine, all matters of your sect, including life and death, still rest on her alone. Ye Island Master is certainly a first-class sword cultivator, but after all, her cultivation level is limited. Facing the Sihai Society and those formidable enemies that have not yet appeared, how many can she withstand? How long can I protect you? ”
Leafpool said nothing.
"I have one more thing to say. A few years ago, you were in the same situation. Why didn't you see the island in turmoil?"
"That's..."
"That's because you have a good relationship with the Rakshasa Cult and have secretly formed an alliance... Okay, okay, just don't offend each other!"
Yu Ci saw a slight change in color on Ye Chi's face, so he changed his words and continued: "Back then, you and the Rakshasa Cult always had a tacit understanding, but once the friendship broke down, the situation was completely different. Isn't the world right? Is that so? Either become a big power like Lunjianxuan, or join forces and join a large organization like Xiyu League, maybe we can maintain peace..."
When he said this, he thought of something again and laughed: "In today's world, great catastrophes have arisen, how can there be true peace? I was also lying..."
The more he said this, the more Yechi could feel his thoughts, and nodded slightly: "What the master said are all good words of gold and jade. However, our clan is isolated overseas. In the past, we only wanted to be pure, but now there is a catastrophe. But there are enemies on all sides, and we can't win allies. This is not what we expected that day."
Listening to Yechi's calm analysis, Yu Ci knew that it was not that Banshan Island had not considered changing. In fact, if not, where would the "deal" with the Rakshasa Sect and the Maritime Chamber of Commerce come from.
But around Banshan Island, there are more enemies who want them to be isolated forever.
At this time, Yu Ci felt that the heat was almost up, so he wanted to come up with his real idea.
But at this time, Ye Chi turned his eyes again and looked directly into his eyes: "Having said that, I also have something unclear, and I would like to ask the master to clarify his doubts - the master has been in Wugoucheng and Wugou City since the Northern Wilderness. Here, everyone helps each other wholeheartedly, which is very grateful. But the most important thing in the world is human kindness. As far as I know, the sect and the master have little contact, but where does this good relationship come from? ”
"Well..."
Although Yu Ci expected that Yechi would ask this question sooner or later, when the reason he had prepared before came to his lips, he suddenly felt that it was meaningless.
Then he got distracted.
He looked at Yechi Qingjun's demure face, but what he thought of was Ye Tu feeling depressed and inferior because of this sister, secretly wiping away tears, and he couldn't help but smile. In a flash, he thought of the ethereal female fairy who came and went in the Sky Rift Valley, piercing the air with her sword, leaving traces in the clouds and mist, which he enjoyed endlessly... But in the end, all the memories stopped at one extremely subtle detail: that was him The moment when the broken horn of the ghost beast was retrieved from Ye Bin's palm!
Subtle movements, subtle feelings, and subtle memories themselves... He grinned and found a very good reason:
"Look up."
"Huh?"
"I mean... I have always looked up to the Master of Muye Island very much."
After finishing speaking word by word, seeing Ye Chi's rare stunned look, Yu Ci lost all his smile. He raised his head to the sky. The night sky was clearly pure, but he seemed to see Ye Binyu. The trajectory left by the sword flying through the air... was the trace she left between heaven and earth, and it had never been as clear as it was at this moment.
Twenty years later, things are completely different.
