Chapter 260 Read Mind
Since the guess I just couldn't achieve at all, things seem to have returned to the starting point again.
Although there was no way, I had no choice but to continue thinking and try to find out the truth of the matter from a different perspective.
And just as I was deeply confused by this unsolvable problem, I saw the man suddenly turn his gaze to me, and I couldn't tell whether he was praising or sarcasm in his tone.
"I didn't see that your imagination is rich enough."
When I heard the man say, I was stunned. After understanding what he meant, I couldn't help but blurt out and debuted.
"Senior, listen to your tone, do you know what I was thinking just now?"
It is not difficult to see that the man wanted to laugh it off and would not answer my question.
However, after seeing the serious expression on my face, he did not choose to turn a blind eye, but nodded and admitted to me frankly.
"Yes, I already knew the guess you had in your mind just now."
When I heard this, I was shocked.
Although I had such a guess in my mind just now, because this guess was too absurd and was rejected by myself as soon as it rose, I did not speak up to everyone.
But without mentioning it at all, the man in front of me could actually know what I was thinking.
Could it be that he has mastered the so-called mind-reading ability in the legend, and can only know what I am thinking about based on the expression on my face?
This is terrible.
Looking at the reactions around me, I knew that this was not because I was worried about it, but because of the most likely development trend of this matter.
"Of course you won't know how much energy your ancestors spent to protect this secret. In addition to all you see now, there are actually many arrangements that you cannot discover with your naked eyes."
And just as we were unable to calm down because of this sudden situation and everyone frowned and thought about countermeasures, the man in front of us spoke again, his tone full of admiration for his ancestors.
"My mission is to protect the secret hidden here, but you also know that in specific circumstances, this secret will eventually be contacted, and the ancestors were not the ones who killed innocent people. For those who mistakenly entered this place, the ancestors did not have the idea of leaving them here forever."
"So, as a guardian, I naturally have to uphold the ideas of my ancestors. Of course, I will face life and death with those who are ill-hearted, and strive to ensure that the secrets here will not be leaked. But if the visitor really just missed this place, I will never attack him, but advise him to return the same way and stay away from the secrets here."
"After hearing this, you must have already understood that whether the visitor is good or bad, good or evil will affect my different ways of dealing with him to a certain extent, but you should also know that the most difficult thing in the world is the human heart. If the visitor intentionally conceals it, I will be completely unable to know his true purpose."
"For this reason, my ancestors taught me another martial art in order to better protect me. This martial art does not have any attack and defense power, but after learning this technique, I can accurately understand the most true thoughts in everyone's heart, and no one can hide his heart in front of me."
Speaking of this, a faint smile appeared on the man's face again, and the eyes that looked at us were full of deep meaning.
"Actually, when you first arrived here, I had already sensed the breath of you, and at the same time I knew the nature and temper of each of you, and knew whether you were malicious or not when you came here. If not, how could I be so honest with you and tell you all the things without reservation."
"And except for the purpose of your coming here, all your thoughts after you arrive here cannot be hidden from my perception. As long as a thought arises in your mind, I will immediately understand it. Even if you keep silent, it will not prevent me from exploring your thoughts."
Hearing this, everyone suddenly realized and no longer had any doubts.
But although we have now known the man’s secret, everyone’s expressions have become solemn again in a blink of an eye. Everyone looks frowning, looking at the man and want to speak but stop.
Because if it is really as he said, then the trouble we are facing now will be too great.
Although we have already understood that we are not enemies with him, and to some extent we can even be called comrades-in-arms, because of the orders left by our ancestors to him, if we want to reach the end of the square and come into contact with the hidden secrets here, the first thing we have to pass is his level.
There is no doubt that if he really has the ability to read the mind, it is completely conceivable that when we fight him, before we can take action, he will know in advance the moves we want to use.
He originally had the cultivation level given by his ancestors, and his cultivation level was much higher than that of our group. Now, with this situation of being determined and unintentional, it is obvious that we will definitely not have any chance of winning when we are enemies of him.
"Senior, since you have mastered the art of mind reading, how can we pass your test and get in touch with the secret at the end of the square?"
Because of this, after thinking about this, I could no longer help but feel the emotions in my heart and looked at the man and asked loudly.
"Senior, your cultivation is much more advanced than ours, and you also master the method of reading the mind. We are already in this Dharma-Ending Age, and you can see what you think and think in your heart. You know the moves you want to use in advance. In this case, do you think we still have the possibility of defeating you?"
This is not because I am exaggerating, nor because I am ambition to destroy my own prestige, but now I really feel that our group has no way to defeat him.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but wonder what purpose he had, so I simply threw the pot and gave up, and the tone of my mouth revealed a hint of badness.
"Senior, if you don't want us to arrive at the end of the square and get in touch with the secrets here, then you can tell us directly that our group is all grateful. Just by taking timely actions just now to help us get out of danger, we will definitely not be embarrassed by you."
