Any normal person would be deeply grateful, and the two of them were no exception.

"It's nothing, it's just a small matter. " Lin Yi waved his hand indifferently, not taking their gratitude seriously.

Lin Yi's judgment of people was quite unique now. These two, especially Bai jingze, were too greedy and had bad characters. As for Zhang Qingfeng, he was still able to collude with them after being tricked by the other party. It was clear that they were both dark-hearted and not good people. So their cheap gratitude had no meaning at all.

Seeing Lin Yi's cold expression, the two exchanged a look with Chu Tianlu and sat down to rest.

"Let's go," Lin Yi called out to Bing Wuqing and Chu Tianlu. It was obvious that he didn't want Bai jingze and Zhang Qingfeng to follow them anymore. They didn't have much to do with each other, not to mention their bad character. Not only would they not be of any help, but they would only make things worse. Why would he bring them along?

As soon as he finished speaking, Bai jingze and Zhang Qingfeng immediately struggled to stand up. The snake Island was full of danger, and if they stayed here alone in their condition, the consequences could be imagined. From their point of view, since Lin Yi was willing to save them twice, it meant that he was most likely a good person. As long as they were thick-skinned and followed him closely, they wouldn't turn hostile.

Compared to his life, his face was nothing.

Bing Wuqing couldn't help but frown. In her opinion, a heavily injured Chu Tianlu was already a burden. That was fine, since Chu Tianlu was actually a good person. At least he wasn't annoying. But Bai jingze and Zhang Qingfeng were different. If it weren't for Lin Yi's magnanimity, Bing Wuqing would've been two human-shaped ice sculptures if she were in his place. They were too thick-skinned to be trying to play tricks at this time. They were too insatiable!

Chu Tianlu's heart skipped a beat when he saw this. He was in a very awkward and difficult position at the moment. After thinking for a moment, he quickly stepped forward to smooth things over."Brother baize, brother Qingfeng, both of you are injured. Why don't you find a hidden and safe place to rest first? I'll come back here to meet you two in two days. How about we go out together?"

This was the most suitable solution he could think of. He couldn't just ignore his two friends, but he also couldn't continue to cause trouble for Lin Yi. Although it was still a little dangerous for Bai jingze and Zhang Qingfeng, it was still much safer than running around with injuries. They just had to be more alert.

"What about you?" Bai jingze asked despite already knowing the answer.

"I ..." Chu Tianlu scratched his head. Logically speaking, if he knew that he would only be a burden to others, he would definitely stay with Bai jingze and Zhang Qingfeng. The more support they had, the more safety they would have. However, he had made a promise to Lin Yi before, and before he fulfilled his promise, he could only continue to follow Lin Yi.

"Brother Tianlu, are you going to do something big with them?" Bai jingze's question was a little harsh. If there was nothing important, he could take the opportunity to ask Chu Tianlu to stay behind, a classic case of dragging someone down. If there was really something important, he could continue to ask a few more questions. Perhaps he would find an opportunity.

Zhang Qingfeng did not say anything, but the same question could be seen on his face. He was waiting for Chu Tianlu's answer.

Lin Yi shook his head at the scene. Chu Tianlu was the one who met the wrong person. He was a man of honor, but he made friends with these dark and scheming guys. He must have suffered a lot in the past.

"It's not really a big deal. It's just that I made a promise to brother Lin yesterday. I want to find out the secret of the Supreme Snake Island that I found out before as a little repayment for his life-saving grace. " Chu Tianlu said honestly.

"The secret of the high Snake Island? What secret?" The two of them asked hurriedly. Their eyes lit up when they heard this word. Any secret in this kind of place would basically involve heavenly materials and earthly treasures. Since Chu Tianlu had said it so seriously, it meant that this secret was definitely not simple. Even if it couldn't be compared to the most iconic spiritual fruit on the snake Island, there wouldn't be too much of a difference in level.

"This ..." Chu Tianlu wasn't stupid. Since it was a secret, he wouldn't tell it to others so easily. Although his loyal personality wouldn't hide things from his friends, the problem was that he had already promised Lin Yi. What would Lin Yi think if he revealed it to Bai jingze and Zhang Qingfeng?

"Tianlu, you don't have to feel embarrassed. We were just asking casually. Don't take it to heart." Zhang Qingfeng was very understanding.

Hypocrite! Bai jingze cursed in his heart. With his understanding of Zhang Qingfeng, he was 100% sure that this guy was just putting on a show. His real intention was definitely to dig out the secret of Snake Island and take it for himself!

Although Bai jingze was complaining to himself, he still agreed on the surface,""That's right, that's right. We've been Good brothers and friends for so many years. How can we make things difficult for you, Tian Lu? you really don't have to think too much."

When the two of them said this, Chu Tianlu was instantly touched and said,""Thank you for your understanding. However, this secret I'm talking about is something I've chanced upon in an ancient book. It hasn't been verified yet, so I don't want to say it casually. If it's just a baseless rumor, wouldn't that be a big embarrassment?"

"Since it's recorded in ancient books, how can it be a rumor?" Bai jingze did not give up and tried to beat around the bush.

"It's not very detailed, and there are no other ancient records to support it. I haven't heard any rumors about it, so I don't think it's very credible." Tianlu's expression was serious as he recalled what he'd read in the ancient books. He'd be too embarrassed to face Lin Yi if it was proven to be a rumor.

"What kind of rumor is it?" Zhang Qingfeng asked.

"I read in an ancient book that since the Supreme Snake Island was transformed from the ancient Supreme snake, from the surface, it looks like the head, body, and tail of the Supreme snake are all complete. Then it must also have a very crucial part, which is its belly. And inside the belly of the Supreme Snake Island is suppressed the true essence of the Supreme Snake Island, which is the source of all the spiritual awareness fruits, the heart of the spiritual awareness fruit!" At this point, Chu Tianlu couldn't help but become excited. This wasn't strange. If all this was true, any normal person would be excited after hearing it.

"The heart of the spiritual fruit?" Hearing this, everyone, including Lin Yi, was shocked. (Fishman's new book "the president of the school Belle clinging to me" has been released. Everyone can go and read it~~~)
