At the same time, in the depths of Ba Shu.
Ba Shu's scenery was extremely beautiful, and its territory was very large.
However, just like the mountains occupied by Shanyue, there were also many mountains here.
Merely, neither Liu Yan nor Liu Zhang had managed to develop those mountains.
To them, only these plains were suitable places to live.
However, no one knew that although there were no foreign races gathered in these mountains, there was a small manor located here.
At this moment, in the manor, a white-haired but strong-looking old man was watering the plants at the entrance of the manor.
From the old man's expression, he seemed to be enjoying his current life.
It was quiet and no one disturbed him.
The Ba Shu army did not dare to approach this place.
Because there were wolves, tigers, and leopards everywhere in the vicinity.
However, this old man did not seem to be afraid of these beasts at all. He did not even look up when a black wolf passed by the entrance of the manor.
However, the black wolf did not seem to see the manor and continued walking on its own path.
At this moment, a white-haired old man with a slightly hunched back appeared at the entrance and quietly looked at the old man watering the plants.
If Bai Feng was here now, he would definitely recognize this person.
This person was Yu Ji!
"Oh? A rare guest? "
The old man's back was clearly facing the door, but he smiled faintly and spoke.
Yu Ji's expression was a little ugly as he slowly walked over.
"Why did you send down lightning punishment on me?"
"What did I do wrong?"
Only then did the old man put down his watering tools and turn his head, standing with his hands behind his back.
Just by looking at his height, the owner of this manor was clearly much taller than Yu Ji, making Yu Ji look extremely weak.
"Oh? I wasn't the one who sent it down. Why are you looking for me? "
"Why don't you go and talk to that old man Nanhua?"
The owner of the manor did not seem to care. He sat quietly on the wooden armchair with a satisfied expression.
Yu Ji narrowed his eyes and said,
"If I could find Old Immortal, why would I come looking for you?"
"You must know the reason. Tell me quickly, how to resolve it?"
"Zuo Ci, if you tell me, I'm willing to tell you something interesting."
At this moment, Yu Ji tore off the cloth on his arm.
His arm was charred black. It was obvious that he had been struck by lightning.
The muscular old man in front of Yu Ji was Zuo Ci.
Zuo Ci slowly looked up.
"You are also an old man. What interesting things can you tell me?"
Yu Ji was about to die from anxiety.
According to his knowledge, the only person who could help him remove the lightning punishment was Zuo Ci.
After Yu Jigang sent Sun Shangxiang to the Shanyue, he came out and felt that something was wrong.
Sure enough, dark clouds gathered in the sky, and a bolt of lightning struck its arm.
Along the way, Yu Ji suffered two more burns. Not only his arms, but his back was also burned.
If Zuo Ci didn't save him, who knew if the next lightning tribulation would strike him directly in the face?
Yu Ji didn't even need to think about it to know that Nanhua Old Immortal was behind this.
Yu Ji gritted his teeth and said,
"When have I ever lied to you?"
However, Zuo Ci ignored Yu Ji and closed his eyes to rest.
At this moment, dark clouds gathered above Yu Ji's head again.
Balls of lightning were gathering above Yu Ji's head.
This time, it took much longer than any of the previous times.
Yu Ji knew very well that he was going to suffer!
All of a sudden, lightning struck.
Yu Ji gritted his teeth and closed his eyes tightly.
This time, he probably wouldn't be able to escape.
Suddenly, Zuo Ci waved the horsetail whisk in his hand.
In the blink of an eye, the lightning disappeared into thin air.
Yu Ji looked at Zuo Ci in surprise.
Zuo Ci stood with his hands behind his back and said,
"Lightning Tribulation. To be able to make Nanhua Old Immortal angry at you, you must have committed a serious crime this time."
"I promise to help you remove it, but if what you tell me isn't interesting enough, I don't mind giving you double the punishment."
Yu Ji nodded his head heavily.
As long as he could remove the lightning punishment now, he could do anything.
Zuo Ci waved the horsetail whisk again.
A wisp of black aura floated out of Yu Ji's head and dissipated.
Then …
A golden light suddenly appeared in front of Yu Ji.
The light enveloped Yu Ji's entire body. The charred wounds on his arms and back instantly disappeared and returned to their original state.
In just a few seconds, Yu Ji's pale face suddenly glowed.
"Thank you, Mr. Zuo."
Yu Ji immediately heaved a sigh of relief. His face was full of smiles.
Zuo Ci didn't say anything. Instead, he glanced at Yu Ji.
Yu Ji smiled faintly and said,
"You boasted that other than the few of us, no one in this world knows of your existence."
"But a few days ago, I met a young friend. He first healed the injuries caused by the Taiping Technique. As a price, he asked me where you were."
"I definitely wouldn't expose your location. I said that you were no longer here and no one knew where you went."
Hearing Yu Ji's words, Zuo Ci's face, which was originally smiling, suddenly changed.
"Is what you said true?"
Yu Ji smiled faintly and said,
"It's absolutely true."
Zuo Ci was suddenly a little confused.
He had already gone into hiding a long time ago. Logically speaking, many old people might not know about him.
Not to mention a young friend?
Moreover, he could actually heal the internal injuries on Yu Ji's body?
"Do you know who he is?"
Zuo Ci said coldly.
Yu Ji shook his head.
"He has nothing to do with anyone."
"I've asked, but no one knows him."
Zuo Ci narrowed his eyes and looked at Yu Ji.
"Is this the interesting thing you said?"
"If that's the case, this old man is very disappointed."
Yu Ji waved his hand and said,
"I'm not done yet."
"Do you know why I was struck by lightning punishment?"
Zuo Ci was dumbfounded by this question.
Why?
Zuo Ci knew Nanhua Immortal quite well. He was extremely kind. Generally speaking, he would never cast the curse of lightning punishment on others, let alone his own disciple.
Yu Ji said,
"I did it for this young friend."
"After he healed me, he only asked me a few questions.
I didn't give him a suitable answer. "
"One must know how to repay kindness. That young friend happened to be a general under Cao Cao and had a grudge against Sun Quan."
"Thus, I decided to lend him a hand. Thus …"
Zuo Ci smiled coldly.
"Meddling in their business?"
"It's not wrong for you to be struck by lightning punishment!"
"You only have yourself to blame!"
Yu Ji smiled bitterly.
"This young friend is very talented. I specially came to tell you about this. Aren't you tempted?"
