Chapter 019.
"You all saw what just happened here, and we all know in our hearts what exactly is going on." Ye Fan, holding the bronze ancient lamp in his left hand and the broken fishing drum in his right hand, did not step back, instead he took a few steps forward to meet a few people and said, "Since I have taken the fishing drum, there is no way I can give it back to him."
The divine radiance spilling out from the bronze ancient lamp was as splendid as the sun and as bright as the moon, and as an intercepted section of sacred rainbow awnings, crystalline and brilliant, with streaks of rays of color, completely in tune with Ye Fan, and the two were as if they were made in heaven, as if they were one, making him look transcendent, as if he were wearing the divine clothes of the Exiled Immortal in the Dust.
And in its right hand held in the fishing drum although broken, and at the moment has been dim, but just now the crowd have seen its thunder god-like power, purple electricity, shocking thunder burst, now the same is held in the hands of Ye Fan, really let a person scrupulous.
"It's true that Li Changqing shouldn't have talked nonsense, causing others to develop a covetous heart and such unpleasant things to happen, but Ye Fan you did go overboard by taking away his life preserving item." Liu Yunzhi came closer, the Vajra Pestle in his hand was brilliant with light, giving off a heavy and condensed feeling, very imposing.
Beside him was a man and a woman who had been blocking Pang Bo's hands since the beginning and helping Li Changqing to speak, all of them following Liu Yunzhi up at this moment.
"Ye Fan I know you're furious, anyone who had something like this happen would be raging with anger, but we should be a little more tolerant." The female student spoke calmly, as if she was on the side of reason, not biased, seemingly completely impartial, saying, "Depriving him of something to save his life in such a situation, we all know what that means, you can't go overboard like this."
At the end of her fingers was a worn copper bell, seemingly dusty for years and gray, and although it looked ordinary, it had to be noticed. As she spoke, her slender fingers moved unconsciously, occasionally sending out one or two bell chimes.
The male student beside Liu Yunzhi also spoke, ''We should all have a heart of forgiveness, we have known each other for four years and suffered this change today at the same time, we should be in the same boat and support each other. The unpleasant matter is over, don't dwell on it, Ye Fan should still return the fishing drum that he used to save his life, you don't want to watch him lose his life either."
In his drooping right hand, there was a rusty incense burner that was no more than palm-sized, somewhat mutilated, with some of the walls shattered, but it looked ancient and natural.
The three stood together and had all made gains in the Great Thunder Sound Temple, each holding an artifact that had been abandoned by a deity, and at this moment, their words naturally seemed weighty.
"Clang!"
Pang Bo stepped forward with great strides, while then heavily standing the Great Thunder Sound Temple copper plaque on the ground, saying, "It's really better to talk than to sing, and I find that you guys are very skilled at reversing black and white. First of all, you guys have to understand what just happened, and secondly you guys have to know that people have to be a bit more righteous in order to be good! Obviously it was Li Changqing and others who were trying to harm Ye Fan, how did it turn out that Ye Fan wasn't generous enough, what kind of reasoning is this and how did it end up being Ye Fan who was wrong? What's wrong with someone trying to get him killed and Ye Fan taking away what he relies on? According to what you guys are saying, it's like Ye Fan has turned into a villain, while Li Changqing is like he has no fault, don't be hypocritical and righteous there, it makes me sick to look at you!"
At this moment, Pang Bo's body light still did not dissipate, the copper plaque on the "Great Thunder Sound Temple" four ancient words bloomed out a channel of heavenly light, the Buddha's voice said, sound like thunder vibration, there is a misty Zen chanting if not faintly come out, his whole body is like a round of blazing sun in general, very imposing.
When these words came out, it instantly made the faces of the man and woman who spoke just now become very unsightly.
"We didn't say that Ye Fan was wrong, we just want Ye Fan to be mindful of the friendship of his classmates and not to take away Li Changqing's fishing drum, so that he can keep his life and live."
Completely avoiding the issue, not mentioning the fact that Ye Fan was almost pushed out of the five-colored altar and was nearly swept away by the storm, focusing on rehashing the fact that Ye Fan's doing so was equal to killing his classmate's life.
Ye Fan listened to them and smiled flatly, saying, "In fact, you three don't need to worry, I don't really want to get into anything with him."
His body was covered with divine radiance, bringing a sense of vegetation and haziness to everyone, and his surroundings were immaculate, making everyone feel serene and peaceful.
"But I have to correct myself, it was Li Changqing and the others who almost made me lose my life, not me trying to harm his life that you guys are always hanging on to, this matter is there for everyone to see." Ye Fan swept Liu Yunzhi's trio a few times and said, "There are quite a few students here who didn't get anything at the Great Thunder Sound Temple, but still survived well, why? Because not long ago everyone shared the relics of the gods in their hands. I took away Li Changqing's fishing drum only because I didn't want him to have something to lean on for evil; he can instruct people to rob me, and he can likewise have such thoughts towards others. His safety, a few people can rest assured, we are classmates, can share the hands of the gods, mutual support, completely safe and sound. Of course, if a few of you don't want to share the copper bell, incense burner, and vajra mortar and pestle in your hands with him, then let him follow me, I will never disregard the friendship of classmates."
Ye Fan first pointed out the root cause of the matter, cutting straight to the heart of the matter. And then he mentioned sharing the relics of the gods, although he didn't say much about it, but the crowd could naturally associate it with the fact that not long ago it was his proposal that allowed many people to escape. Afterward, he lightly chipped Liu Yunzhi and those two students, face to face, leaving people speechless.
Zhou Yi also stood at the front, apart from opposing Ye Fan's taking away of the fishing drums at the very beginning, he had been quietly listening during the process without expressing any opinions, and it was only at this point that he opened his mouth once again, saying, ''Li Changqing is indeed very wrong, and it is not too much to dispose of him in any way. But Ye Fan isn't it a bit of a waste for you to get hold of two relics of gods, knowing that there are quite a few other students present who don't even have a single remnant."
Zhou Yi's family had a certain background, but never made people feel arrogant, always very elegant and easy-going, he pointed out this problem at this moment, immediately making Pang Bo next to him frown, but there was no way to refute anything.
"I'm even willing to share the bronze ancient lamp in my hand with everyone, now that I've received this fishing drum, it's only natural that the things I consider should start from this side as well." Ye Fan smiled and beckoned to a male student behind him, saying, "Zhang Ziling here, if danger occurs, you must remember to share it with the person next to you."
This classmate named Zhang Ziling had been standing behind Ye Fan and Pang Bo, back then it was the affection from kicking out on the soccer field that made him closer than the average classmate, just now, although he didn't make a move as Pang Bo did, he also clearly stood on Ye Fan's side.
This decision of Ye Fan was very sudden, the corner of Zhou Yi's mouth moved a bit, but did not say anything.
Liu Yunzhi frowned at that time, while the female student beside him immediately spoke out against it, saying, ''Many of the male students present have gained something at the Great Thunder Sound Temple, but comparatively speaking, there are not many female students who have found Buddhist artifacts. I think a female student should be handed over." Saying this she looked at a girl behind her schematically.
Pang Bo revealed a sneer and said, "What else is there to distinguish between classmates, those who hold relics of deities in their hands have to share them with others, it's not the same as handing them over to anyone, wouldn't you be willing to help others?"
Selectively ignoring and emphatically highlighting the offensive things, Pang Bo treated others the way they treat him, with a derisive look on his face, instantly choking that female classmate to a burst of annoyance, her face suddenly turning green and white as she said, "Don't misinterpret what I mean!"
Zhang Ziling naturally stepped forward and took the fishing drum handed over by Ye Fan, both of them did not say anything, everything was in the air.
Ye Fan directly ignored Liu Yunzhi, didn't even look at him and asked Zhou Yi, "Zhou Yi what do you think?"
"I don't have an opinion, we are now in distress outside, we should help each other, I hope that no more unpleasant things will happen." Zhou Yi said these words very calmly and then said nothing.
The other students in the surroundings watched all this in their eyes, and all of them experienced the subtle situation of the party, although it seemed to be peaceful, there were several times of invisible confrontation, but all of them were lightly dissolved by Ye Fan.
This reminded people of Ye Fan in his student days, that was how it was back then, very easygoing and bland when it was time to be calm, never ambiguous when it was time to be sharp, never stirring up trouble, but even more so, not afraid of things coming to him.
Pang Bo held the Great Thunder Sound Temple bronze plaque in his hand, looked at Liu Yunzhi several people in front of him, and said, "Ye Fan doesn't care about other people harming himself, but there are some things that I have to say, people do what the sky watches, by now I think it's no longer possible to deny the existence of deities, it's still better for people to be righteous, don't do those things that can't be seen in the light of day!"
This is tantamount to nakedly smacking the faces of the people in front of him, but it leaves people speechless, because he is on the side of "reason".
Liu Yunzhi was calm and had no expression of embarrassment, he just nodded and said, "Good point, we must avoid this kind of thing in the future."
Lin Jia and Prince Wen stood at the back, both of them held a neutral stance, neither of them made any comments just now, and at this moment, they spoke out successively.
"In order to avoid further unpleasantness, I think we should have a good discussion."
"We should now determine how those who have gained something in the Great Thunder Sound Temple should help the others, and how many people each person should help."
And Li Xiaoman didn't say anything since the beginning, she gazed at Ye Fan who was not far away, watched him calmly defuse all of this passage, his eyes were very plain, he didn't show any indication, he didn't help any party.
As for Cade beside him, who had a very average understanding of Chinese, he didn't fully understand what had happened until now, and this foreigner was secretly staggered.
"Bang!"
Suddenly, a shattering sound came from the crowd, the crowd was startled, the curtain of light protecting the outside of the five-colored altar was unexpectedly pierced, something drilled in, the crowd all looked in that direction.
A black light was so fast that it pierced through a male student's forehead with a "poof" sound, a splash of blood flew up, the male student's eyes were wide open, he fell to the ground on his back, and no longer had a voice.
If it wasn't for the light curtain, this kind of terrifying thing was simply silent, and the crowd wouldn't have been able to realize that the dark light was coming. Thinking of the several people who were attacked and killed in the night not long ago, the crowd's hearts were chilled with fear, and that dark light was hidden in the darkness, so it was impossible to detect it.
The appearance of the black light was tantamount to announcing that the Grim Reaper had come again!
Gusts of terrified cries rang out, the altar was in chaos, those without the relics of the gods frantically pounced on Liu Yunzhi, Zhou Yi, Prince Wen and the others, grabbing them and refusing to let go of them any longer, sharing the Buddha's artifacts.
"Ow roar ......" Suddenly, a chilling sound came from the storm, shaking the sky and earth, and the thunderous sandstorm was overpowered by it.
"It's the Great Thunder Sound Temple ......"
At this moment, quite a few people turned pale as they heard the direction of this sound, which was exactly where the Great Thunder Sound Temple was!
"The Great Thunder Sound Temple has been destroyed, could it be that something is not suppressed under the Great Thunder Sound Temple ......"
The moment Pang Bo's words came out, it instantly made many people's scalps go numb and they felt a gust of horror.
