Chapter 605: Unraveling the General Knowledge Ball
huh~~
The night wind was howling, the stars were twinkling, and the Bafang Temple was just like the outside world, with a big moon hanging high in the sky.
At the foot of Bafang Mountain, beside the campfire, Pang Wenlong, Taoist Yuanqing, Zen Master Dading, Fang Sanyun and others sat cross-legged, some frowning or with sullen faces, and the atmosphere was depressing.
The moment Li Yuan stepped into the Bafang Temple, everyone's eyes were fixed on him.
"Just when I mentioned you, you're here."
Pang Wenlong laughed and called Li Yuan over: "Tell me what you think about Huang Longzi and the Poison Dragon Academy."
His voice was not loud, but Li Yuan suddenly felt much more at ease. However, he did not rush to answer, but asked instead:
"What do you think, seniors?"
Pang Wenlong did not answer, but looked at the other Grand Masters present:
"Since Li asked, you might as well tell us something."
"This……"
Long Yingchan's expression was slightly tense, but he didn't say anything. The others looked at each other, all feeling a little awkward.
'Is this a disagreement?'
Li Yuan reacted immediately after thinking about it.
He could leave this world and go to Tianshiyuan at any time, so Huang Longzi's words did not cause any waves, but it was different for these Taoist masters.
Compared to him going to Tianshiyuan alone to find a way to break the catastrophe, Huang Longzi's proposal obviously touched them more. As for the point of disagreement...
He glanced at Pang Wenlong. This Great Ancestor of Dayun had a faint smile on his face, but his eyes were as dark as the sea, making it difficult to guess his true thoughts.
"What can't be said?"
After a brief silence, Fang Sanyun frowned impatiently:
"I think we should give it a try. If Li Xiaoyou can really enroll in the Poison Dragon Academy, it will be a great thing for us. Li Xiaoyou won't have to go to the Netherworld alone, and we can avoid this disaster!"
At this point, he glanced at Pang Wenlong inconspicuously and added: "Of course, this requires meeting Huang Longzi first."
really……
Li Yuan was not surprised either. He just looked at the other Taoist masters along with Pang Wenlong.
"What do you think?"
Pang Wenlong did not comment.
"What Master Fang said makes sense."
Zen Master Da Ding clasped his hands together and agreed. He looked at Pang Wenlong and said seriously:
"The Netherworld is strange and dangerous. Even though Li has a mysterious weapon, he may still be trapped in it. Even if he can reach Tianshiyuan smoothly, it is hard to say whether he can find a way to solve the disaster of the sun and the sky in just a few decades."
As he spoke, Zen Master Da Ding sighed:
"I am not a coward, but this is about the inheritance of my disciples, so I really..."
He wanted to explain something, but Pang Wenlong didn't look at him. Instead, he looked at Taoist Yuanqing, Long Yingchan, and even Zhou Ying who was sitting cross-legged in meditation not far away.
Zhou Ying, who had been in a state of half-life for a long time, had no interest in the conversation among the crowd. Most of his energy was focused on the Eight Directions Map in the mountains. He only glanced at Li Yuan when he saw him.
"There is indeed great terror between life and death, and even we are not immune to it."
Patting Yun Xianyu who was hugging his arm tightly, Taoist Yuan Qing sighed and looked at Fang Sanyun:
"I believe that Huang Longzi is sincere and that Li Xiaoyou's talent is beyond our imagination. He is enough to attract the Poison Dragon God, but what happens after he comes?"
Fang Sanyun frowned.
"As the spirit turtle said, the Poison Dragon God is said to be a starry sky poisonous dragon that has entered the Dao. He is violent and cruel, and has slaughtered many people in the world to become a Daoist. Do you dare to bet that he will show mercy?"
Taoist Yuanqing looked up at Bafang Mountain under the night sky. He could faintly see the small temple among the clouds and mist:
"Little friend Li has the talent of a god or devil, which is rare in the world, but the significance of this Eight Directions Temple is obviously much more important, right?"
"I……"
Fang Sanyun looked unhappy.
"Indeed, Chi Lian said that the Poison Dragon God had long since purged himself of all his evil deeds and was no longer vicious and violent, but as a disciple of the Poison Dragon Academy, how credible is her statement?" "...You are right, Fang was not thoughtful enough."
Fang Sanyun sighed.
He also understood this truth, but it was too unlikely for Li Yuan to go alone to find a way to break the calamity.
"You are not inconsiderate, but you are too concerned."
Pang Wenlong glanced at Taoist Yuan Qing and said with some approval: "Yuan Qing is right. Such a big event cannot be decided by the thoughts of an evil god."
"Why doesn't Master Long speak?"
At this time, Master Da Ding spoke, and everyone's eyes fell on Long Yingchan. The latter was startled, and the fingers pinching his long eyebrows slightly tightened, and then he sighed:
"We know so little that it's hard to make a decision."
Everything he said caused a stir. As an eyewitness, Long Yingchan thought much more.
"Whether it's Tianshiyuan or Poison Dragon Academy, all we know about them is the few words from the Spirit Turtle and Chi Lian..."
As he spoke, Long Yingchan also sighed:
"If you know yourself but not your enemy, no matter how you decide, it's like... gambling!"
"This……"
Everyone around the campfire fell silent, except for Zen Master Dading, who moved his lips. It was obvious that these words were meant for him.
"Master Long is still safe."
Li Yuan nodded secretly in his heart, and the words of Taoist Yuanqing and Long Yingchan touched his heart.
He had no grudges against the Poison Dragon Academy. If this disaster could really be solved, he would have no objection to joining the Poison Dragon Academy.
But he couldn't make a decision without knowing much about the latter.
The other party is strong, he is weak, and there is a treasure at hand. Only those gamblers who are taught by Xinyi would dare to gamble in this situation. He has always declined the offer.
"Little Li, what do you think?"
Pang Wenlong broke the silence and drew everyone's attention to Li Yuan.
"The elders have thought very carefully..."
Li Yuan bowed respectfully, and after a moment's hesitation, he said:
"Senior Yuanqing and my Taoist master are right. We know too little about Tianshiyuan and Dulong Academy. Making decisions without intelligence support is no different from gambling. It is not advisable."
"..."
Feeling the vague gazes of several people, Zen Master Dading could not help but put his hands together and chant the Buddha's name softly.
"However, what Master Fang and Zen Master said is not entirely without reason. The Nether Realm is dangerous and the Sky Market is vast and boundless. It is really hopeless to find a way to break the calamity in just a few decades."
Li Yuan carefully considered his words, but in fact he couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
With his temper, he would have run as far away from this kind of troublesome matter as possible, but there was no other way. There were also the second brother's family, the old dragon head, the old Han, the old Lei, the senior sister Fang, Ba Wanli...
'No wonder the sages of the past all emphasized leaving the world...'
"You don't offend anyone!"
Pang Wenlong was speechless, and the other grand masters either shook their heads or laughed, and the solemn atmosphere was slightly broken.
"I think that before making a decision, we should collect as much information as possible about the Poison Dragon Academy and even Tianshiyuan."
Li Yuan had a plan in mind, and he was thinking about it while the others were discussing it just now.
"Ok?"
Beside the campfire, several Taoist masters looked at each other and asked, "How are you going to gather intelligence?"
"General Knowledge Ball!"
