Chapter 2836
Hearing Lin Wan'er's question, the old nun explained earnestly: "To tell you the truth, Miss Lin, fifty miles ahead is the place where Miss Lin and Mr. Ye are going, but this place is a place that Miss Lin can go to, and Wu Feiyan can go to, but Mr. Ye is the only one who cannot go."
"The Master knows Wu Feiyan?!"
Hearing the old nun mention Wu Feiyan, Lin Wan'er was even more shocked.
She really couldn't figure out the identity of this old nun, and even more couldn't figure out why she was so powerful. Knowing Ye Chen and knowing her was one thing, but even knowing Wu Feiyan was another.
The fact that she could say Wu Feiyan's name proved that she must have some understanding of Wu Feiyan's life.
In other words, she must know that Wu Feiyan had lived from the Ming Dynasty more than three hundred years ago until today.
Lin Wan'er looked at the old nun and thought to herself in horror: "She knows Wu Feiyan's secret, so does she also know my secret?"
At this time, the old nun no longer concealed it and said calmly: "This poor nun will speak frankly with Miss Lin. Wu Feiyan and the Anti-Qing Society are also this poor nun's enemies, and Wu Feiyan's personal strength is very strong, and she has the Anti-Qing Society that has been operating for three hundred years. Her comprehensive strength is almost unmatched."
Speaking of this, the old nun suddenly changed the subject and said seriously: "However, compared to that person fifty miles away, Wu Feiyan is just a clown who has lived for more than three hundred years."
The old nun's words made Lin Wan'er terrified.
For more than three hundred years, Lin Wan'er had never been as nervous as she was now, as if everything she had hidden for more than three hundred years had been seen through by someone.
She suppressed the uneasiness in her heart and asked the old nun with feigned calmness: "What the Master said, is it Meng Changsheng? Could it be... could it be that he is really not dead?"
The old nun sighed noncommittally and said: "Wu Feiyan came and left in such a short time. I believe a smart person like Miss Lin can also see the whole picture from a glimpse."
Lin Wan'er was even more nervous. In her anxiety, she hurriedly asked: "This young woman boldly asks the Master, what does all this have to do with Young Master Ye?! Why can I and Wu Feiyan go, but Mr. Ye cannot?"
The old nun put her hands together and said: "Amitabha, Miss Lin, it is not that this poor nun is unwilling to make it clear, but Miss Lin should know about fate. Some things can only be pointed out, and excessive interference will lead to uncontrollable changes. This poor nun's original intention was to remind Mr. Ye that the road ahead is full of obstacles. If I say too much and Mr. Ye insists on going to the tiger mountain, then everything will be irreversible."
Lin Wan'er pursed her lips and asked her: "Then does the Master think that if this young woman goes to persuade Young Master Ye to give up now, with his personality, without a clear explanation, will he agree?"
The old nun said earnestly: "This is why this poor nun asked the disciple to invite Miss Lin, rather than directly inviting Mr. Ye. This poor nun believes that Miss Lin has an irreplaceable importance in Mr. Ye's heart. Persuading Mr. Ye by Miss Lin should be much stronger than this poor nun's persuasion."
Lin Wan'er said embarrassedly: "Young Master Ye is particularly looking forward to this trip to the Ten Thousand Great Mountains. He also has many problems that have troubled him for a long time and wants to get an explanation in this trip... If I suddenly persuade him to turn back, I guess he won't agree either."
The old nun nodded, looked at Lin Wan'er, and said: "Going further forward will bring unforeseeable disasters to Mr. Ye and many innocent people. If Mr. Ye can put down his hatred for the time being, he can win valuable time for himself and win more chances of winning."
After saying this, the old nun looked at Lin Wan'er and said sincerely: "Miss Lin, this poor nun has already made the stakes clear to you. Whether you can persuade Mr. Ye to turn back depends on Miss Lin."
Lin Wan'er looked at her and asked with some pleading: "Master, this young woman implores you to be more specific. Young Master Ye is this young woman's savior. If he really has such a catastrophe in his life, even if this young woman has to pay with her own life, she will do her best to resolve it for Young Master Ye..."
After saying this, Lin Wan'er bent her legs and was about to kneel on the ground.
Seeing this, the old nun hurriedly stepped forward and supported her body before she knelt down, saying: "Miss Lin has seen the changes in the world for hundreds of years. This poor nun does not dare to be arrogant in front of Miss Lin. Miss Lin must not perform such a great ceremony."
As she spoke, she supported Lin Wan'er and said: "I believe Miss Lin also knows the mystery of fate. In the I Ching and Eight Trigrams, even if it is just an inconspicuous subtle change, the final deduced result may be vastly different. If this poor nun says too much, it may be counterproductive. If Miss Lin really wants to help Mr. Ye, then reduce the variables as much as possible. This poor nun can clearly tell you that there is danger ahead for Mr. Ye, and Miss Lin only needs to ensure that Mr. Ye can give up continuing forward, which is the best result. Whether it is you or Mr. Ye, knowing too much will bring greater variables."
Hearing the old nun's words about seeing the changes in the world for hundreds of years, Lin Wan'er knew that the old nun in front of her already knew her past like the back of her hand.
And she also quickly realized her gaffe. The old nun was right. Fate is indeed full of very subtle variables. Knowing too much is sometimes not a good thing.
At this time, she no longer asked the old nun for more details, but weighed the credibility of the old nun's statement in her heart.
She first ruled out that the old nun was her enemy.
Because the old nun had already successfully attracted her to this nunnery. If she were really her enemy, she would definitely take action against her;
Afterwards, she ruled out that the old nun was Ye Chen's enemy.
The old nun knew Ye Chen, knew her, knew Wu Feiyan, and even knew the movement trajectories of the three. If she were Ye Chen's enemy, she wouldn't need to be mysterious here at all.
She only needed to find a way to tell Wu Feiyan that Ye Chen was the son of Ye Changying and An Chengxi, and then pass Ye Chen's information to Wu Feiyan. Then Wu Feiyan would definitely kill Ye Chen.
Since she ruled out that the old nun was her and Ye Chen's enemy, the credibility of her previous words was much higher.
Lin Wan'er also analyzed whether the old nun and Ye Chen would have any conflicts of interest. For example, if the old nun also wanted to explore the relics left by Meng Changsheng, then she and Ye Chen would be competitors. Finding a way to persuade a competitor to give up would indeed be beneficial to her.
However, thinking carefully, this possibility was also minimal.
After all, the other party was waiting for them here, and she and Ye Chen hadn't even figured out where they were going.
If everyone was grabbing a treasure, then naturally the first to arrive would get it first. The other party was already ahead and knew the location of the treasure. The best choice would be to rush to dig up the treasure as soon as possible, and try not to expose their identity and make a fortune in silence. How could they leave the treasure un-dug and instead wait here to persuade the disadvantaged competitor behind to give up?
Therefore, this inference also did not hold water.
Not an enemy, and no conflict of interest. In this case, the probability that the other party was sincere was much higher.
Thus, Lin Wan'er looked at her and asked: "This young woman has one last question. Why does the Master want to help Young Master Ye?"
The old nun said very solemnly: "More than twenty years ago, someone opened a Pandora's box, but this box was only half-opened at that time. If it is left alone, after a few years, the box will gradually open by itself, which will inevitably lead to unforeseeable disasters. And now, the only person who can completely close this box, or directly open this box, is Young Master Ye!"
