"Fish, it's fish, grilled fish. There's actually someone grilling fish?"
After a series of careful identification, Xing Jue finally confirmed that it was the smell of fish. Moreover, it was a very fragrant fish. This was because the fragrance had drifted for a long time before it reached Xing Jue. If it was nearby, Xing Jue's Soul Strength would have detected it long ago.
"It smells so good. Who is it?"
With curiosity in his heart, Xing Jue continuously sniffed the fragrance of the fish as he followed the smell towards the source. He was not only curious about the fragrance of the fish, he was even more curious about who dared to come here.
After passing through layers of dense and dark forest, Xing Jue suddenly felt his eyes light up. Not far from him, there were no longer rows of dense trees, but a small lake. The water in the lake was incomparably clear. One could clearly see the silvery white full moon in the sky and the slowly flowing galaxy.
Although the lake was beautiful, it was unable to attract Xing Jue's gaze at this moment. This was because Xing Jue's gaze had already been completely attracted by a figure by the lake.
This was an old man. In front of the old man was a blazing bonfire, and there was a grass carp on top of the bonfire. As the old man flipped the grass carp, he was also chewing on the roasted grass carp in his other hand. The beautiful expression on his face and the sound of his chewing indicated that the fish was indeed very delicious.
And from the bonfire, one could clearly see the appearance of the old man. It was a small old man who was as thin as a match. The old man had a head of messy white hair that fell on his shoulders. His dark yellow face was filled with wrinkles, and his white beard was as messy as his hair. At first glance, he was simply an old beggar. Xing Jue actually knew this small old man. He was the talkative old man who had come to this slave camp with him.
"Senior, why are you here?" Seeing that this old man was not in the slave camp in the middle of the night and actually came here, Xing Jue was also slightly surprised.
"Aiyo, young man, it's you. You scared me to death."
"Eh? You're not dead? That's great, come and have a bite. Have a taste of my cooking. "
The old man was shocked when he heard someone speak. He stood up and was about to flee. However, when he saw that it was Xing Jue, not only did his fear vanish, but he revealed a pleasantly surprised expression instead.
"Die? I, Xing Jue, will not die so easily. " Seeing that the old man actually invited him, Xing Jue did not stand on ceremony and sat beside the old man. While eating the roasted fish that the old man handed him, he told the story of how he was thrown into the cage and became a weapon refiner in this slave camp.
"Haha, young man, you're really lucky. You're not like me, an old man who still has to do hard physical labor like a young man at my age." After hearing Xing Jue's words, the old man looked envious.
"That's easy. Tomorrow, I'll talk to the fat man and ask him to transfer you here. Senior, you don't have to do anything. You just have to watch us do it." Seeing the old man's pitiful appearance, Xing Jue laughed and said straightforwardly.
Along the way, the old man had been nagging in Xing Jue's ears. However, Xing Jue was too annoyed and did not pay attention to him. However, now, Xing Jue's view of this old man had completely changed. Although he was nagging a little, this old man was indeed a good person.
First of all, when Xing Jue was in a coma for more than ten days, it was this old man who left food for Xing Jue to eat. Today, when he was being whipped, no one dared to speak up for Xing Jue. However, this seemingly weak old man had the courage to do so. It could be seen that this old man was a very good person.
Moreover, after working in the dangerous slave camp for a whole day, there was not a single whip mark on his body. Moreover, he was able to sneak out of the slave's resting area at night and come here to roast fish. It could be seen that this old man was not simple. He must have something extraordinary about him.
"Haha, that's good. Then this old man will thank you, young man."
"Come, I'll roast two more fish for you as thanks. Oh right, how does my fish taste?" After hearing Xing Jue's words, the old man was overjoyed. Then, he used a branch to stick two more fish and roasted them for Xing Jue.
"Fragrant, Senior, your roasted fish is too fragrant." Xing Jue was full of praise as he continued to chew on the fish in his hand. Seeing how he was eating so miserably, it was obvious that he was not lying.
"Ai, what a pity. Having fish but no wine is a great regret in life. Otherwise, even if I had to stay here for the rest of my life, I would be willing. "The old man sighed with some regret.
"Wine? I have it here. "After hearing the old man's words, Xing Jue laughed and then put his right hand into his clothes.
"Look, this is good wine." When Xing Jue took his hand out again, there was a small bottle of fine wine in his hand.
Actually, there was nothing in Xing Jue's clothes. He was just using his clothes to conceal his Soul Devouring Order so that he could take the opportunity to take out the wine from the Soul Devouring Order.
This wine was the food that Xing Jue had stored in his storage bracelet when he was cultivating. After so many years, although the food had already rotted, the wine had become more and more mellow.
"My god, you actually have such good stuff. Haha …"
"Wow, good wine. This is really a top-notch wine." Seeing the wine in Xing Jue's hand, the old man's eyes instantly lit up. He took the wine bottle and drank a big mouthful. From the smile on his face, one could see how satisfied he was with the wine.
"Junior Xing Jue, a toast to Senior." Seeing that the old man was drinking so happily, Xing Jue could tell that he was a person who loved wine as much as his life. Then, he took out another bottle of wine and drank with the old man.
As the two drank, they chatted a lot. The more they chatted with the old man, the more intimate Xing Jue felt. It was as if the old man was a family member that he had not seen for a long time. In this dark slave camp, being able to meet such an old man made Xing Jue's heavy heart ease a lot.
"Xing Jue, it's getting late. This old man should go back. If I am discovered by the guards at the gate, I will be whipped if I sneak out."
After the two chatted for two hours, the old man reluctantly drank the last mouthful of wine and said to Xing Jue. After an hour of chatting, the old man already knew Xing Jue's name, and Xing Jue also knew the old man's name. This old man was called Bu Chen.
"En, I will find that fatty tomorrow morning and ask him to transfer Senior Bu Chen to my place. From now on, the two of us will drink together every day. "Seeing this, Xing Jue also stood up and said with a smile.
"Hehe, good, what a good boy. However, before we leave, there is still one more important thing to do." After standing up, Bu Chen suddenly said with a smile.
"Eh, what is it, Senior?" After hearing Bu Chen's words, Xing Jue was stunned and did not know what Bu Chen was talking about.
"Of course it is to remove your seal." Seeing Xing Jue's confused expression, Bu Chen's mouth curled up into a strange smile.
"What? You … "At this moment, Xing Jue was even more shocked. He never thought that this old man could actually see that his strength was sealed, and even said that he would help Xing Jue remove the seal!
"Xing Jue, you don't look like a weakling, but today, you can't even move a mere loading cart. It is obvious that you are unable to use your true strength. There are only two possibilities for this situation. One is that you are deliberately hiding your strength, and the other is that your strength has been sealed by someone. Looking at your situation, I am 100% sure that your strength has been sealed."
"Don't think that my battle strength is weak. I am from the Sealed Continent, and the Sealed Continent specializes in all kinds of sealing techniques. Within the Sealed Continent, my research on sealing techniques can be considered the most thorough."
"Come, let me see what kind of seal you have." Seeing Xing Jue's surprised expression, Bu Chen did not beat around the bush. He rolled up his sleeves and said to Xing Jue.
"En."
Hearing this, Xing Jue came to a sudden realization. He had indeed heard Bu Chen say that he was from the Sealed Continent, but Xing Jue did not pay much attention to it.
After hearing Bu Chen's words, Xing Jue did not dare to have the slightest doubt. He quickly unbuttoned his shirt and revealed his seal.
"En? It seems that the person who is going to use the sealing technique is not simple. "
"This sealing technique is a little interesting. The meridians of the seal are very complicated. Unless he personally removes the seal, otherwise, if others forcefully remove it, it will be very easy for your cultivation to completely collapse." After sizing up Xing Jue's seal, Bu Chen could not help but nod his head.
Seeing Bu Chen's appearance, Xing Jue could not help but be alarmed and asked anxiously, "Senior, is there a solution?"
"However, it is a pity that he met me. For a King of Seals like me, removing this kind of seal is too easy."
As he spoke, Bu Chen opened his right palm and stretched out his left index finger. He began to draw all kinds of strange symbols on his right palm. Bu Chen's technique was very fast, and in the blink of an eye, he had finished drawing.
"Puchi."
"Huhuhu ~"
Subsequently, he condensed Battle Qi on his right palm. His right palm was instantly ignited with a blue flame. Within the flame, one could clearly see the symbols that he had drawn. It was extremely strange.
"Xing Jue, this old man is going to remove the seal for you."
Suddenly, Bu Chen's palm suddenly fell. It was so fast that by the time Xing Jue reacted, his palm was already firmly on his chest.
"Ahhh ~ ~ ~ ~"
In an instant, Xing Jue's agonized cry rang out and slowly echoed around the lake. Such a heart-wrenching cry was proof of the pain Xing Jue was currently enduring.
"Huhuhu ~ ~"
A moment later, Xing Jue's mouth was panting heavily. Large amounts of perspiration continuously flowed down his face. When his gaze landed on his empty chest, an incomparable excitement instantly surged on his paper-white face.
"Xing Jue thanks senior for your help!"
Suddenly, Xing Jue knelt on the ground and bowed to the old man from the Sealed Continent. Being able to remove this troublesome seal, the excitement in Xing Jue's heart could no longer be expressed with words. Furthermore, Xing Jue was extremely grateful to Bu Chen for removing the seal.
