Douluo Dalu: Yin and Yang Judgment
Chapter 233: Finally see Zikun
Starting from the exit of the night market and moving forward, the number of pedestrians on the street has gradually increased.
Based on the memory of the last time he came, Ye Chen browsed the stalls on both sides of the street while walking towards the old man's location.
Soon, he walked through the bustling crowd and came to that place.
But what made him a little helpless was that the old man did not show up and the booth was not there either.
Instead, a vendor selling groceries stood in front of a dazzling array of goods, accompanying smiling faces to sell to pedestrians.
With Ye Chen's mental power, it is impossible to remember the wrong position.
And if the old man changes booths, then the end of the night market is not far in front, and everything can't escape his eyes.
‘Could it be that the old man got one hundred thousand gold soul coins from me and gave up his business and went happy? Ye Chen chuckled and shook his head, not caring too much.
After all, on the mainland, there are not a few people who return to seclusion with money after getting rich overnight.
One hundred thousand gold soul coins are enough to allow the old man to take care of the rest of his life, so why bother to run around?
No longer thinking about it, seeing that there was nothing useful to him, Ye Chen walked a few steps quickly and came to the front of the restaurant.
Looking at the only modern building in this town, Ye Chen took a deep breath and stepped inside.
He was still a little bit worried, wondering if he would get the answer on this trip.
But the moment Ye Chen stepped into the hall, he was stunned.
I saw an old man who was about to die, sitting on the chair at the front desk, staring at the door with scorching eyes.
But the girl who received him did not show up during the previous two visits.
This old man, Ye Chen met him when he went to the Far North for the second time more than half a year ago.
At that time, he walked out of the Secret Realm of Laurel Laurel, and without a word, he carried him in his hand and brought him to Xingluo City.
It is no wonder that Ye Chen's mood fluctuates, this person is Zikun in Mu Lao's mouth.
His clothes now are exactly the same as when Ye Chen first saw him.
A shabby coat and a wide fisherman hat made of animal skins, if the opposite party was not in the direction of Ye Chen, he might not have recognized it for the first time.
Zikun's gaze was muddier than Lao Mu, it was already completely close to gray, and it looked extremely distracted.
When it was time for dinner, there were a lot of people at the entrance of the restaurant, but Ye Chen always felt like he was the only one in the other's eyes.
‘It seems that he knew that I was coming and was waiting here specially. Ye Chen thought.
This was the closest he was to those puzzles, not just what happened in the far north, but also his own life experience, the secret of magic stone and so on.
Ye Chen believed that as long as the other party was willing to tell him, the mist that enveloped him could definitely lift more than half.
Thinking of this, he no longer hesitated, and walked slowly in the direction of the front desk.
Every step taken seems to be close to the answer to the mystery, over the past ten years.
Ye Chen has never been as nervous as today. This short distance of less than 20 meters can pass in a few seconds.
But in his heart, it seemed as long as centuries.
"Senior Zikun, it's been a long time." Finally, Ye Chen walked to the other side and bowed to salute.
After all, the other party is obviously older than him, and he also knows Mr. Mu.
Ye Chen did not want to discredit the image of the college.
Looking at the surface alone, Zikun is no different from everyone in the town, they are all expressionless.
But when Ye Chen came to the front and back, his muddy eyes suddenly brightened a bit, and then he nodded and said, "Have you been to the Far North?"
A few short words instantly affirmed Ye Chen's previous judgment, and the other party's note was indeed a reminder.
"Hmm..." Ye Chen frowned slightly and looked around.
Zikun seemed to see his concerns and said, "Don't worry, they can't hear our conversation."
An understatement, but revealed invisible domineering, even Ye Chen had to admit that the strength of this old man may not be strong.
At least equal to Mu Lao.
"Senior is reminding me that time is running out?" Ye Chen hesitated for a moment, and suddenly went straight to the subject.
Talking with smart people is always simple, without those twists and turns, just a simple sentence, and you can understand what you mean.
"Don't you already have the answer in your mind?"
His words are equivalent to indirectly acknowledging Ye Chen's problem.
"Got the sacred tree?" Zi Kun asked again
Ye Chen was shocked when he heard the words, this Zi Kun seemed to know everything about him.
This feeling of being controlled by other people really made him a little bit frustrated.
"You mean Laurel? I already got it." Ye Chen didn't intend to hide it.
Before this trip, Mr. Mu once said to him, "Whether it is me or Zikun, I will do my best to help you, even if it is to sacrifice my life."
Even if Ye Chen didn't believe the other party, he trusted Mu Laona 100%.
"Laurel tree? The sacred tree originally had such a name..." Zi Kun's body shook slightly, and slowly got up and walked out of the front desk.
Ye Chen was also a little surprised when he heard what the other party said to himself.
He originally guessed that Zikun came from a world outside of Douluo, and had a certain relationship with his own life experience.
But now he has personally denied this idea. If that's the case, the other party must know the name of the laurel tree, but the fact is just the opposite.
This situation instantly made things more complicated.
Seeing the other party seems to be lost in thought, Ye Chen thought for a while, and decided to ask in a simple and clear way: "I want to know what is the relationship between Senior Zikun and me, why help me twice?"
After Zikun heard the words, his wrinkled face turned towards Ye Chen and fell into silence.
Ye Chen didn't urge either, knowing that some things were urgent and useless.
In the end, Zi Kun did not answer his question, but beckoned and walked slowly towards the stairs.
Ye Chen naturally followed without hesitation, and the other party stopped when he reached the top of the stairs, and handed him his right hand in front of him, where there was a key to the restaurant's room.
Having been here twice, Ye Chen couldn't be more familiar with this key, and while reaching out to take it, he couldn't understand what the other party meant.
"You go upstairs and rest first. Some things are not suitable to tell you now. Three days later, you will go to sea with Wu Yong and the others. There is still something waiting for you." Zi Kun sighed and explained.
For some reason, Ye Chen always felt a hint of unbearable and helplessness in the other's tone.
But the other party's cover-up was excellent, and he was not quite sure.
Moreover, Ye Chen finally understood why Wu Yong knew his name, and it seemed that Zi Kun had greeted him in advance.
Without waiting for him to continue to ask, Zi Kun spoke again: "After all, you are too weak now. After returning from the sea, go back. When the cultivation base reaches the fifth ring, Mu En will tell you something."
