The old man said, ”Young man, you can come back once in ten minutes. First, I'll show you the treasures I've collected from the Nine Prefectures. I usually don't show them to others.”
”Oh? A rare treasure? ” Jun Lin Yue felt that this was a bit strange, but the old man was smiling very happily. ”Yes!” This is the thing that I am most proud of all these years.
As they spoke, the two of them had already reached the entrance of the house. Another gust of wind blew past his ears. This time, Jun Liyue heard it even more clearly than before. It was a voice that was very clear as well, ”Danger, don't go in!”
And this sound, seemed more like it came from Yun Dai'er.
Even though this was a reminder to Jun Linyue, he still didn't spare a glance for it. He strode into the wooden house.
In the distant treetops was the figure of Yun Dai'er. At this moment, she was so anxious that she didn't know what to do. There were some things that only a Spirit would be able to sense. There were more than ten Mystic Spirit experts lurking around, and they had almost been discovered. Once he stepped forward, the others would attack him at an even faster speed. The only thing he could do now was to warn Jun Bluemoon at the right time, and not let them discover him. He would wait and see what they were up to.
As he entered the house, the scene before his eyes turned dark. He was greeted by the fishy smell of fish. The fishy smell brought with it a salty and fragrant scent.
Looking around, he could see that this old man's life was very simple. There was a stove, which was still warm, and beside it was a wooden bed, on which were warm enough quilts, and a few clothes, and a table that was filled with a small room, and on top of it were all sorts of things from the river, shells, dark blue crystals, spirals of black vortexes, and so on.
Jun Lanyue picked up a blue piece of crystal clear stone and asked, ”Uncle, what are these?”
Uncle laughed and said, ”These are all treasures that I picked up when I was fishing in the water. It is said that no matter if it is in the river or the sea, such flawless crystals are only produced after a thousand years. So, it's one thing for me to enjoy it every day.”
Jun Lanyue smiled as he nodded his head, thinking that there shouldn't be any danger. Why would there be someone who would remind him not to enter the little house?
Thinking of this, Jun Linyue saw the old man gently pat the wall behind him. He clapped three times. Jun Lanyue asked, ”Uncle, what do you mean by that?”
Eldest Uncle said, ”I'll take you to a good place. In the past few decades, only I have entered this place. I believe you will like it.”
Before his voice had even faded away, a rumbling sound could be heard as if a stone door had been opened. Jun Lanyue couldn't help but take a step back. ”What's going on?” There's an inner sect here? ”
Uncle said nothing and just stood there quietly, watching the stone door slowly open. The outside of the stone door looked like a wooden wall, but no one knew that he could still open it.
At this moment, the stone door slowly opened, and the clear sound of wind chimes could be heard. It seemed as if a gust of cold wind had blown out from behind the stone door. It was not over yet. Waves of flickering blue light were shining out from inside like stars.
