Chapter 042 Ksitigarbha, the Beast King
Jiang Bai had previously clearly informed the Han thieves on the communicator that he had information about the Beast King and requested a face-to-face transaction.
According to what Marquis Wen said before, no matter where Jiang Bai is, Han thieves can deliver supplies to him. What this means is very clear.
Obviously, among the Han thieves, some were able to enter and exit the wilderness at will, as if they were in an uninhabited land.
The person in front of him is the strong man Jiang Bai met.
After seeing this person, Xuehu's expression changed, and he subconsciously wanted to leave, but was locked by a murderous intent, which was full of warning.
"Don't worry, the show has just begun."
Jiang Bai pressed Xuehu down, stood up, looked at the person opposite, and asked,
"You haven't asked for advice yet?"
"Han thieves are just unknown people."
The man said calmly,
"As for nicknames, there are too many. Shopkeeper, accountant, businessman... there are all kinds of nicknames. Just pick the one you like."
Jiang Bai thought for a moment and asked cautiously,
"Junior, can I call you Mr. Accountant?"
In front of the other party, Jiang Bai behaved extremely sensible, and even the old Beast King did not receive this treatment.
"What you call it is your business."
After saying this, Mr. Accountant seemed to find this title a bit interesting, and there was a smile on his lips.
Since it’s interesting, it’s worth taking a couple more sips.
He knocked on the wine glass and said dissatisfiedly,
"Why, there's no one to pour the wine?"
Before Jiang Bai could get up, Xuehu was the first to step forward, pretending to pour wine for him.
Jiang Bai kicked Xue Hu, but the other party didn't move at all, and even looked back at Jiang Bai indifferently.
Boy, are you really looking for death?
Jiang Bai kindly reminded, "There are only two people here."
The waiter wants someone to pour the wine. What level do you have, and you can also pour me the wine?
Xuehu tasted the taste and silently stepped back without any change in his expression.
After pouring a full glass, the clerk held the wine but did not drink it immediately. Instead, he looked at Jiang Bai and asked,
"Where's the news about the Beast King?"
Obviously, he has not forgotten why he came.
Jiang Bai said seriously, "This matter is of great importance. Please help Mr. Accountant to help me isolate the space so that no one else can pry."
Jiang Bai himself has a way to hide himself, but he cannot guarantee the confidentiality of the conversation.
Snow Fox's methods seemed brilliant, but they were just useless in front of the old Beast King.
Therefore, Jiang Bai needs a strong man who is strong enough and neutral in favor of humans to come forward and help him.
Jiang Bai specially invited people from among the Han thieves in order to balance the forces of all parties while leaving room for him to move around.
At the moment, it seems that everything Jiang Bai planned is going smoothly, and half of the success has been achieved.
"good."
The accountant slapped the abacus on the table, fiddled with it a few times with his left hand, and said casually,
"Is half an hour enough?"
"enough!"
Three maroon beads flew up, occupying three different directions, emitting a light red light, covering the two people and one fox, and the beads began to rotate slowly,
"No one can spy on this place until the maroon color of the abacus beads fades away. Let's get started."
After Mr. Accountant finished setting up, Xuehu spoke first and asked Jiang Bai again,
"Jiang Bai, stop talking nonsense. What does it mean that the old Beast King is unclean? Don't blame me for not reminding you. If you slander the old Beast King, when everything is settled, I will hunt you to the ends of the earth and never stop!"
Even in front of Mr. Accountant, Xuehu said harsh words and threatened Jiang Bai.
"Whether there is a ghost or not, you know it in your heart. If the old Beast King is really as wise as you say, you won't be so guilty, and you won't be so anxious now."
Jiang Bai said disdainfully,
"Why don't you tell me first, what does the old Beast King look like in your mind?"
Jiang Bai knew very little about the old Beast King.
Within the Qinhan Pass, there was basically no information about the old Beast King, and the director had not mentioned it to Jiang Bai.
After coming out of seclusion, people from Chu Man and Han thieves reminded him one after another, and Jiang Bai only knew about this person's existence.
"Old Beast King..."
Mentioning these three words, Xue Hu showed admiration on his face.
Xuehu pondered for a moment, his eyes full of enthusiasm, and said respectfully,
"The old Beast King has lived for at least five hundred years and survived the fourth mysterious tide. He can be called a living fossil!
He is the most powerful, selfless, wise and intelligent being I have ever seen. The old Beast King has dedicated his life to us, educating us, negotiating with humans, and fighting for our living space..."
Obviously, Xue Hu is the most loyal subordinate of the old Beast King, and also the most fanatical fanboy.
A beast king completely abandoned his wildness and bestiality and became a saint?
Jiang Bai didn't believe it.
He has never seen a living saint. No matter in the past or now, everyone has their own dark side, even Jiang Bai is no exception.
It is precisely because of the existence of these dark sides that Jiang Bai suffers from mild persecution paranoia.
Jiang Bai interrupted Xuehu’s rainbow fart,
"We will talk about these nonsense later. Time is limited. Just tell us when did the old Beast King start to change. To be more detailed, you should be able to sense that the old Beast King is hiding something from you. When did it start? ?”
Hearing Jiang Bai's words, Xuehu's expression suddenly changed and he looked at Jiang Bai suspiciously.
Did this guy guess it, or did he know it in advance?
Xuehu didn't know that Jiang Bai had a mild case of persecution delusion and would make up for many things on his own.
Obviously, Jiang Baimeng was right this time.
The old Beast King really hid something from Xue Hu!
"Well, things started a month ago."
Snow Fox said slowly,
"That day, the old Beast King suddenly spoke into the air..."
Talking to the air?
Hearing this, the clerk's hand holding the wine glass was hanging in the air, Jiang Bai's heart tightened, and the two of them looked at Xue Hu in unison.
Apparently, this incident piqued the interest of both of them!
Jiang Bai asked, "What did he say?"
Xuehu hesitated for a moment, but still felt like finishing the matter.
"The old Beast King said...he saw a Ksitigarbha!"
really!
From Emperor Kongtian, Jiang Bai learned that something was wrong with the Ksitigarbha in the Protectorate.
To be precise, the person sitting in the secret tomb of the Protectorate now is the second generation of demons.
The real Ksitigarbha of the Protectorate Palace has long been transformed into a ghost Buddha. He recently escaped from the secret tomb of the Protectorate Palace and came to the vicinity of Qinhan Pass.
Before meeting the director, had Ksitigarbha met the old Beast King? !
The value of this information exceeded Jiang Bai's expectations!
Thinking of this, Jiang Bai glanced at Mr. Accountant in surprise. From his reaction, it was not difficult to infer that Mr. Accountant also knew about the Ksitigarbha of the Protectorate!
He didn't expect that the other party actually knew something about such a confidential matter?
Han thieves should not be underestimated.
Jiang Bai asked, "Then what."
Xuehu's expression changed several times, and after some hesitation, he said,
"The old Beast King said... Ksitigarbha wants to help him become a Buddha!"
