Chapter 30
The Special "Lock"

Zhao An and Zhao Yun weren't surprised for too long.

After all, they had seen the life-saving elixir that could bring back the dead, so an iron gate forged from tempered steel didn't seem like such a big deal.

“Alright, be serious, we are about to meet the Immortal Lord,”

Zhao An patted Zhao Yun on the shoulder.

Zhao Yun nodded and quickly suppressed the look of surprise on his face.

Although the iron gate didn't have a lock.

Zhao An didn't take the liberty of opening it and entering.

Instead, he knocked on the door respectfully.

Dong dong dong...

Of course, if they had actually opened the door, they would have discovered that the iron gate wouldn't open at all.

In the game.

These gates seemed to be open to Steve.

He could open them with just a click.

But in reality, the gates had a magical custom "lock" function.

Yun Yi could customize the form of the lock.

The gate could only be opened by entering the correct password.

If no password was entered or if the incorrect password was entered.

The gate couldn't be opened.

Forcing it open wouldn't work either, unless you used special means to dismantle the gate directly.

Of course, this lock was meant for outsiders, Yun Yi, as Steve, didn't need a password and could open and close it freely.

Yun Yi had just filled the small pond with water from a bucket.

When he heard a few knocks on the door.

“Is the Immortal Lord there? I'm Zhao An, and I've brought Zhao Yun to apologize to you.”

Yun Yi walked to the door.

He was about to open it, but then he remembered the gate's custom “lock” function.

It was a good opportunity to have them help him test it.

“Wait, you two push the door first and see if you can open it.”

Zhao An and Zhao Yun looked at each other.

What kind of strange request was this?

But they followed Yun Yi's instructions and pushed the door.

It wouldn't open.

“Immortal Lord, it won't open.”

Yun Yi nodded slightly, and continued to say through the iron gate:

“You two try ramming it, see if you can force it open.”

“Immortal Lord, this wouldn't be good......”

“It's fine, I asked you to do this, even if the door is broken, it's not your fault.”

Zhao An looked at Zhao Yun.

“Ram it, do you want your old man to ram it with his old bones?”

Zhao Yun's face fell, he took a few steps back.

Then he slammed into the iron gate.

Duang!

The violent impact sound carried for tens of meters, but the iron gate remained intact, standing firmly in place.

Yun Yi stood behind the door, nodding slightly.

This door was strong.

“Alright, you two knock on the door three times, then shout ‘Xiao Ai Xiao Ai, open the door’,”

Huh?

Was this the Immortal Lord’s sense of humor?

Although Zhao An and Zhao Yun were confused, they still did as they were told.

“Dong dong dong, Xiao Ai Xiao Ai, open the door!”

Click, the heavy iron door creaked open a crack.

It opened?

Zhao An and Zhao Yun pushed open the door and entered.

They didn't think much of it.

They just thought Yun Yi had opened the door.

Yun Yi stood behind the door and nodded in satisfaction.

Not bad, the MC version of a voice-activated door.

“Remember how to do it, you can come in like this even when I'm not here.”

“Huh?”

Zhao An scratched his head and asked cautiously, “Immortal Lord, you mean......?”

Yun Yi wanted to explain that this was a voice-activated door.

But after thinking about his current immortal identity.

He changed his words.

“I cast a spell on the door, it can only be opened by using the correct method, and I just taught you the correct method.”

Zhao An and Zhao Yun were stunned.

“So it wasn't Immortal Lord that helped us open the door just now?”

Yun Yi laughed:

“Of course not, you can try again if you don't believe me, by the way, you can use this method to go out too, but you don't need to knock, just shout ‘Xiao Ai Xiao Ai, open the door’ to the door.”

“It's the same for closing the door, the first part remains the same, just change the last part to close the door.”

Is it really that magical?

Zhao An and Zhao Yun's eyes widened, their faces full of disbelief.

Zhao An could still control himself.

But the eighteen-year-old Zhao Yun couldn't help himself at all.

Seeing Yun Yi's agreement.

He quickly ran to the iron gate, clearing his throat:

“Xiao Ai Xiao Ai, close the door.”

As soon as the words left his mouth, the door that had just opened automatically closed with a “bang”.

“Xiao Ai Xiao Ai, open the door.”

The door that had just closed slowly opened a crack.

It really worked.

My god, this is too magical!

Zhao Yun wanted to play with it a few more times.

But he heard a cold snort from behind, and when he saw Zhao An’s gaze from the corner of his eye, he quickly calmed down.

He stood beside Zhao An, head down and silent.

Zhao An quickly bowed to Yun Yi, then pulled Zhao Yun in front of him:

“Immortal Lord, I brought Zhao Yun to apologize.”

“Apologize? Apologize for what?” Yun Yi looked at them in confusion.

Zhao An said respectfully:

“I arranged for Zhao Yun to be your guide, but he went back to sleep for eight hours without saying a word, I was very rude, please punish us, Immortal Lord.”

Oh, really?

He wasn't bragging.

With his current immortal identity.

There were countless people in Zhao Family Village who would rather stay up all night than spend an extra moment by his side.

So he guessed.

Zhao Yun must have been really tired, otherwise he wouldn't have slept for eight hours.

But even if Zhao Yun hadn't gone back to sleep and stayed here.

It wouldn't have made much difference.

After all, he couldn't do anything here, he could at most help him watch the place on the ground.

He couldn't have Zhao Yun go down with him and mine, could he?

Not to mention that Zhao Yun couldn't use an iron pickaxe like him to break blocks of stone.

The oxygen in the mine wouldn't allow him to go down either.

As Steve, he didn't need to breathe.

When he entered the water, he would only have oxygen values.

But Zhao Yun was a normal person, he needed to breathe.

The oxygen in the mine was insufficient, and could kill Zhao Yun in minutes.

“It's fine, I was the one who told him to go back to sleep, a sharpened knife doesn't dull the woodcutter's axe, you need to be well rested to do things better.”

Yun Yi waved his hand casually, “By the way, how's your shoulder?”

He had just asked Zhao Yun to ram the door outside.

To test the strength of the iron gate.

It turned out that Zhao Yun was indeed a straight boy.

The noise, it was clear that he had used all his strength.

Zhao Yun grinned:

“Immortal Lord, I'm fine.”

Yun Yi said:

“I'll know if you're fine just by taking a look.”

After saying that, he pulled open Zhao Yun's clothes and looked.

Good heavens, his right shoulder was bruised and red.

It would probably turn into a whole patch of bruises in a while.

“Be careful next time, don't use so much force, just do it lightly.”

Yun Yi shook his head, then took out the milk, “Open your mouth.”

Seeing the milk elixir, Zhao Yun immediately understood and opened his mouth.

The milk poured into his mouth.

Glug glug!

After a few sips of milk, the blood stasis on his shoulder visibly began to dissipate.

A moment later.

Zhao Yun was completely recovered.

“I'm fine.”

He shook his shoulders, quickly bowed to Yun Yi and said, “Thank you for your treatment, Immortal Lord.”

Yun Yi waved his hand:

“Alright, don't be so formal, I treat you as a friend, come on, come in and have a look at my newly built luxury villa.”

Hearing this, Zhao Yun was deeply moved.

I, a mere mortal, can actually be a friend of the Immortal Lord.

It's truly a stroke of luck.

He suddenly felt that the words in the "Strategies of the Warring States" were true, that “a man would die for his confidant,” indeed.
