Chapter 249 I will convince Master
That evening, Zhang Liang took Dongjun and the little golden monkey to rest in a remote park in a bustling city.
It was relatively safe here. Their dinner was a fish caught in the park's lake. It was the only food Zhang Liang could find. Although it was a little insufficient, it was barely enough for the two of them and a monkey.
The man in black who had been following them changed his route and reached the tree-lined avenue in front of them when he saw them stop.
There is a solitary monument beside this must-go road.
Similar to the two Zhang Liang had seen before, both were built to commemorate some past events.
The man in black came to the stele, lit three sticks of incense, and then sat quietly waiting. Soon, light smoke slowly rose from the stele and gradually condensed into the shape of an old man.
"Why are you here? You have been wandering here for hundreds of years. I don't agree with what you insist on, and you know it, but there are some things I can't stop. I don't think you can succeed. This is our fate, even if we can really escape from here."
What can we do? We have been trapped here for thousands of years. This place is closed to outsiders, and once you enter, it is difficult to leave. For us, this is fate and a prison.
Hearing this, the man in black said, "Second Master, are you willing to stay here? You have been taking care of me and training me. I can see clearly that those people put you here with bad intentions. They want you to be trapped forever. This is all a conspiracy. Second Master, don't you understand?"
The old man smiled, looked up at the skyscrapers in the distance, and said in a low voice: "In fact, I soon understood, but what's the use? Metabolism, since we have lost, we must accept the due punishment. Even if we are still here, they will try to squeeze us out. Perhaps, this is our best destination, we can always accompany the 'king'."
After hearing this, the man in black slowly lowered his head, but then raised it again and stared at the sky in the distance.
"Since we have been defeated but not dead, we must take back everything that once belonged to us. I am unwilling to give up, so I believe that even if the 'King' is resurrected now, he will agree with my opinion."
The man in black smiled and said nothing. He simply responded, "Tell me, boy, what do you want from me? You can't come to see me for no reason. Do you have any plans that require my assistance?"
The man in black smiled slyly: "I can't hide it from Second Master. I do have a plan. Master, you may not know that two strangers came here. I think they are not simple. I actually felt the magic power and magical powers of the immortals from one of them."
Upon hearing this, the old man hurriedly asked, "Could they be from that place? I remember that this place has long been disconnected from that place, and the passages leading there have been closed. They can't have come here."
The man in black nodded: "They have already cut off those roads themselves! So they can't be from there. If I guess correctly, they should be ordinary people from the lower world who have somehow inherited the immortals' legacy."
The old man in black nodded: "Indeed. This world has always had a secret passage to the outside world, but it has long disappeared. If it really came from there, it is indeed possible."
The man in black nodded: "They have been in the city for several days. According to their route, they should be here tomorrow. I hope you can let them pass."
The old man thought for a moment and asked, "You don't want to take them to the place where the 'King' inherits his legacy, do you? It's much more dangerous there than here. You've been there before, and normally, everyone must pass our test. It was lucky that you were able to escape from there last time, but you're pinning your hopes on them again. Is it worth it? You should know that the inheritance of the 'King' is not something that ordinary people can bear. It also requires a certain fate."
The man in black nodded: "I know all this, but now this is the only chance I have, I must seize it. Otherwise, I don't know how long I have to wait."
"Why not let them go? To get there, they have to be tested by me. But I promise not to go all out. If they can withstand ten of my moves, I'll let them go. Although I'm stubborn sometimes, I know my limits sometimes."
"If they can really get through me, the next challenge will be even more difficult. I can agree to your request, but Master may not agree. He is more difficult to deal with than me."
The man in black nodded: "Second Master, I know everything. When they come over, I will convince Master."
The man in black knew very well that as the guardian of the heritage land, the old man would not let anyone leave easily, so he made demands in order to gain room for negotiation.
......
Zhang Liang and Dongjun took a short rest in a cafe not far away, completely unaware of the conspiracy that was about to happen.
After eating the red fruit, Zhang Liang felt better. If his estimation was correct, he would be able to recover his original strength by tomorrow morning, and his safety would be more guaranteed by then.
Dongjun was not far away, also feeling the changes in his body. Most of the toxins in his body had been cleared, and his injuries had improved significantly. He believed that in a few days, his injuries would be healed.
......
The next morning, when the sun was shining, Zhang Liang and Dongjun opened their eyes at the same time and smiled at each other.
"How is your injury?"
Dong Jun nodded: "Much better, I think I will be able to fully recover in a few days."
