Chapter 186 Who Was He?Although Zhang Yunyan did not know this man, she had no fear. She knew he was also the victim that had been captured by the devils. They both fled here in the same situation, and they were two fellow sufferers.
However, the man didn’t think so. With a woman who was taking a weapon beside him, he did not know how she would treat him, so he had to be on guard.
Yunyan was suspicious, and she immediately asked, “Well, you… How did you wake up? When did you wake up?”
The man was more nervous and still alert when he heard the stranger’s question.
Staring at Zhang Yunyan, he was a little confused, “Wake up? I haven’t slept. How can I wake up?”
“You were not asleep? You have been in a coma for many days.”
Hearing that, the man was surprised, since he did not expect that the woman in front of him had made him unconscious for many days. What was she going to do? What had she done to him in the last few days? Could it be that she had forced him to…
He did not dare to think anymore, nor did he believe that it had happened.
Staring at Zhang Yunyan, he asked angrily, “I was not in a coma. You are talking nonsense. Who are you, and why are you here? Are you the accomplice of the devils?”
The man was on his feet, ready to pounce.
Zhang Yunyan shook her head, and smiled bitterly. While patting off the dust on her clothes, she explained, “Don’t be nervous. I’m also the one who was chased by the devils like you.”
“Is it true?”
“Of course, it’s true. I’m a woman, and I will not lie to you. If I were the companion of the devils, I would not have been chased like this, and have to hide here.”
The man was somewhat convinced, but he still looked at Zhang Yunyan without speaking.
Still puzzled, Yunyan straightened up and asked, “Young Master, you are still unconscious outside the hole, but just as you entered here, you woke up. What happened? Is it because… Can you break the magic yourself? If you have this kind of ability, why not use it a little bit earlier? Turtle Elf has carried you all the way and was almost caught in a big trouble. How dangerous!”
“Please don’t call me that. I’m a monk and have already no involvement of the secular world.” That man was discontented again, watching Zhang Yunyan vigilantly.
Yunyan was surprised and she felt it even weirder. She looked at the man without blinking.
Zhang Yunyan was very surprised, and more suspicious. It was not because he misunderstood her, but because of his identity. The man called himself a monk. It seemed that he was not the unconscious man, but another monk.
The man who was alarmed and more worried asked, “Was I really unconscious? What did you do to me when I was unconscious?”
Zhang Yunyan explained quickly, “You were already unconscious and I did not have the ability to break the shackles for you. What could I do? It was Turtle Elf who carried you here.”
Looking at the strange man, she still could not believe that he was a monk. Obviously, the unconscious man wore expensive clothes and jewelry, and she was certain that he was a secular man.
Yunyan was silent, and then that man said again, “Who is Turtle Elf? I don’t know it. Why are you making this up? Are you trying to deceive me? It won’t work out. You won’t succeed.”
It seemed that the man still did not believe her. Although he worried that Yunyan did something, he still did not want this to happen.
Zhang Yunyan still could not believe that the secular man would become a monk. There would never be such a story, unless he had the ability to change himself.
She was very surprised and puzzled. Could there be another person in this mysterious cave? Who was this man who called himself a monk? There was only the secular man in the cave but no one else. How could the monk be here? When did he enter, and why did she not notice it?
This person was mysterious. His sudden appearance made the cave even more mysterious.
Just then, Zhang Yunyan was suddenly frightened, and she had no time to see the man in front of her. At this time, she began to look at him carefully. In the dark, she could not see his face clearly, but she could still recognize him as a monk according to his clothes.
Startled, Yunyan looked around and the unconscious secular man disappeared. She was even more surprised. The unconscious man was motionless. How could he disappear?
As she walked around, she had to make sure that there was no other man in the cave except the monk. In other words, she had to make sure that there was no third person in the cave except them.
What happened? Was the monk the secular man?
She felt that this was nonsense. Since the man was a monk, how could he be the secular man? This was such a joke.
However, Zhang Yunyan remembered clearly that she had brought the unconscious secular man into the cave. How could he be missing? There was only the secular man in the cave, but why was there a monk?
If this monk was the secular man, why did those expensive clothes disappear and be changed into a Buddhism costume? Even if he had changed his clothes, it would not have happened so fast. Besides, there were no extra clothes except what he was wearing. Why?
In addition, his long black hair was gone, too. His hair could not have been shaved so fast, and no one was here to shave his head.
If the monk was not the rich secular man, where had he gone?
There was no way out of this cave, and the secular man was unconscious and unable to move. He could only lay here motionless and he would never disappear.
It was strange that the secular man had indeed disappeared. How could he disappear without a trace?
If this monk was someone else, who was he? When did the man enter, and how did he enter the sealed cave?
The riddle was so mysterious, and it was creepy, which made people even more nervous and suspicious.
Zhang Yunyan suddenly thought that the man might be the original owner of the cave. Was he the master who had been cultivating long time ago and had carved countless words of fate?
If the monk was not that master, he would not break the powerful magic of seal, and enter the closed cave freely. Moreover, he would not survive in the “Hell” full of devils, and he would have been killed by Jiuyou Sage and the devils.
This man was so young. Was he really the secluded master?
Zhang Yunyan was confused at the sudden appearance of the monk.
If this monk was a master who lived in seclusion, he must be from the ancient time. How could he be so young? Had he been cultivated to such a high level and become an immortal who could live forever?
In the face of such a young master, Zhang Yunyan could only explain to herself this way, and this was the only explanation that made sense.
She was probably right. The monk might have been cultivating in the cave and in order to prevent someone from intruding into the cave to disturb him, he chose to seal the hole with his magic. When he finished cultivation, he would come out.
Think of this, Zhang Yunyan was very surprised and she said excitedly, “Are you the master who has been cultivating here? It is great that there is someone who can punish the devils!”
She didn’t expect that this master did not leave, and he was still here in seclusion. It was so exciting.
With the master in this place, Zhang Yunyan didn’t fear those devils, and she was no longer desperate for being trapped here. This master’s power was so strong, and he would defeat Jiuyou Sage and the devils, and make the cave clean again.
In the mysterious cave, there was excitement and joy as well as alarm and anger. The emotions were totally different and could not be mixed. At the moment, the two people were in confrontation.
The confrontation was short, and perhaps a thrilling fight might break out in a moment which would be terrible and bloody.
Zhang Yunyan was very excited to see the secluded master, and she did not realize that something terrible was going to happen.
The monk glared at her and shouted, “Girl, if you dare to talk nonsense again, you will be killed immediately. Tell me the truth. What’s your relationship with the devils? Are you ordered by them to arrest me? Tell me!”
Yunyan was surprised to hear the words. According to him, this man seemed to fear Jiuyou Sage and the devils. Then, he was not the master who lived in seclusion.
She looked at the mysterious man and wondered who he was. How could he break the seal and get into the cave if he was not the secluded master here? When did he come in?
When she was in suspicion, a terrible scene flashed across her mind. It was the old woman who claimed herself to be a half an immortal. Was the man that old woman?
It would be terrible if the old woman turned into the monk. Because the old woman and Jiuyou Sage were partners, and she wanted to send Zhang Yunyan to the Devil’s Cave as a gift. Zhang Yunyan did not expect to meet her here.
The devil was right in front of her, and Yunyan was going to die.
In panic, Zhang Yunyan denied this idea, and she felt the man in front of her was not that old woman. Otherwise, he would not be afraid of Jiuyou Sage and the devils, nor would he be so vigilant.
Was this monk the victim of the devils? Why was he hiding here? Could… Could he be the unconscious man?
It was impossible. He was a monk, not the rich secular man.
Zhang Yunyan could not solve this mystery, and she could explain to herself, “Young Master… No, master, as I have said, I was chased by the devils so I escaped here. Trust me, I’m not on their side, or else I would not hide here and dare not to go out. Take it easy. We are both victims, and I will not hurt you.”
The monk was a little convinced and he asked, “If what you said is true, how could you be in the Devil’s Cave? Are you caught by them?”
“I wasn’t caught. I got in on my own.” Zhang Yunyan sighed, “It’s sad. Tonight, when Black Tiger and I went into the Devil’s Cave, we were reluctant, but we had to.”
Hearing that, the monk paused without speaking.
Zhang Yunyan pointed to the dead black dog next to him and said, “This black dog is Black Tiger, and it’s my partner. In order to save me, he was killed by the Red Hair King Ghost. It was so painful.”
As she spoke, she was choked up, and tears were flowing silently.
