Today, August 22, 2004. The seventh day of the seventh lunar month. Legend has it that the Cowherd and Weaver Girl met in heaven.

It has been two weeks since the beginning of autumn, and in China, you may still be able to see what an autumn tiger is. But in the outer Xing'an Mountains, it is already an autumn scene.

In the circle of poplar trees around Jiunianggou, the leaves began to turn yellow, and they looked like golden clouds from a distance.

In the gap between these clouds, Lin Shuo and Anne could see log stakes planted in the ground, forming the wall here.

This cottage, as if it is in the midst of golden clouds, is both beautiful and mysterious from a distance. It will involuntarily generate the idea of going inside and finding out.

It's a pity that Lin Shuo didn't have this interest.

In the past few days, the cold air from Siberia has begun to move south from the Arctic Ocean, and the autumn wind has blown down for a few days, and all the smell information has dissipated quickly.

In fact, now, the smell of the Dragon King's envoy and Xiaoba, Lin Shuo can no longer smell it.

The reason why he could continue to track down was because he knew that the Dragon King's envoy was followed by a gray donkey.

This donkey eats well, and it eats soy feed, so the smell of donkey dung is different.

Eating and pulling along the way, even if it was blown by the autumn wind for a few days, the smell of beans was like a guiding sign in Lin Shuo's mind.

Lin Shuo knew at this moment that the donkey had followed its owner through Jiunianggou, so he wanted to take Anne to surround the outside of Jiunianggou and continue to track.

In a place of right and wrong like Jiunianggou, Lin Shuo naturally has no interest in going deeper.

He said that Anne didn't want to have human blood on his hands, so why shouldn't he himself?

So at this time, the two walked side by side, and the steps under their feet were not slow.

But in a hurry, when they were about to bypass Jiunianggou, the two were still blocked by a group of hunters.

There were eight of them in this group, all of them were young and strong, and they seemed to have come back from hunting, with * in their hands, bows and arrows on their backs, and their eyes looked directly at Anne beside Lin Shuo.

The two were forced to stop, and Lin Shuo took a diagonal step, protecting Anne behind him.

"Boy, you're kind. Among the eight, a stocky hunter nodded, "Leave that woman behind, and I'll let you live." ”

"Third brother, what nonsense to talk to him!"

"That's it, just kill it. ”

"Third brother, don't look at this woman's face with mud, the outline is very marked. ”

"The fifth has good eyesight. ”

"Hey, my son is sixteen, it's time for a mother-in-law. ”

"Third brother, what you said is not right, since it was discovered by the brothers together, naturally those who saw it have a share. ”

"Yes, your son is still young after all. ”

"Third brother, I think this mother-in-law is still for us. Your son will talk about it next time. ”

"What nonsense!" the short and stout man named Third Brother said angrily, "Last time you robbed that bride, you snatched it back to live, but you ruined the girl to death." Like you, the stockade will be extinct in less than 20 years!"

"Third brother, when you talk about this now, you just don't treat us as brothers. ”

"That is, when you snatched the bride at that time, didn't you also have a share?"

"I robbed it for my son! At that time, you said that the seeker had a share, but I didn't say anything. This time, it's my son's turn, right?"

"Third brother, if you want to leave incense for your family, so will we. ”

"Come on, just like you, the devil knows whose seed it is in the end. ”

"If the third brother doesn't do this, I think this mother-in-law is really quite standard, and it's a pity to die like this. Let's draw a lot, shall we? Whoever draws will be whomever it is, and go back and live a good life. ”

"This will work. ”

"Yes, yes, but you can't go back. ”

"Then let's make an oath together in the name of the Dragon King. ”

"Good!"

"Hey, hey, be quiet, don't bring people from the stockade. ”

"Yes, yes, yes, or they will come and kick it, and it will be even more messy. ”

"Yes, that's right. ”

Anne watched the group of hunters discuss like this, and felt both disgusted and pitiful for these people.

She is a highly educated woman, and naturally knows that people are animals first, and people second.

When basic needs at the animal level are not met, people show their animal side.

Humanity is thus extinguished.

These eight hunters, in Anne's eyes, are like this.

The extreme environment caused them to behave in an extreme way.

But no matter what, this group of people is not a good person.

If the situation spirals out of control and she has to kill someone, Anne feels like she'll be at ease.

At this time, she heard Lin Shuo say loudly: "A few big brothers, you are chatting very lively." Can you please listen to my advice?"

The eight Orions were stunned for a moment, and then they all laughed.

"Boy, tell me, what do you have in mind?"

"I think so. Lin Shuo said solemnly, "How to divide the woman behind me, that's later." Are you going to kill the man in front of this woman, that is, me? You are going to discuss and discuss, and I am a little embarrassed to stand here, and it is very uncomfortable. ”

"Makes sense!"

"I didn't expect that you kid is still a talent. ”

"Okay, boy, you're good enough. ”

While talking, the sturdy hunter named Third Brother raised the shotgun in his hand and aimed it at Lin Shuo.

"Don't blame me, boy. We are also forced. Go back and your brother will burn you a few paper money. ”

After saying this, the stocky Orion was about to pull the trigger.

At this time, this sturdy hunter was about five meters away from Lin Shuo, which happened to be the most powerful range of the pole in his hand.

This shotgun is not rifled and is a shotgun. When encountering prey, you don't need to look at it at all, and you will fall down with one shot.

Just when the stocky Orion's index finger exerted force and was about to pull the trigger, he felt a flower in front of him, a numbness in his arm, and then when he lowered his head, the gun was gone.

"This matter is always one step at a time, and the steps must not be messed up. Lin Shuo clicked, broke the shotgun in his hand in half, and threw it on the ground.

As he moved his hands, he said:

"I can only take my life if you want my life first. Otherwise, Master Zu will blame. ”

After saying this, all eight Orions were already lying on the ground.

Anne saw the eight men lying on the ground screaming, their arms hanging limply around them as if they had no bones.

Almost instantly, Lin Shuo crushed all the hand bones of these eight people.

I only heard Lin Shuo say lightly, "Aren't you short of women? From now on, hold on. ”

After saying this, Lin Shuo glanced back at Anne.

Anne quickly lowered her head and followed.

This time, she didn't dare to walk side by side with Lin Shuo anymore.

At that moment just now, Anne finally saw Lin Shuo's real hands-on appearance.

She didn't even see what Lin Shuo had done, she only saw the result.

She felt that she was playing petty in front of people like Lin Shuo, and she was really a little unscrupulous.

The relationship between the two men and women has not reached that step.

And in terms of strength comparison, doing this by yourself is a bit of a taste of death.

Anne already had a relatively clear understanding of the gap between Lin Shuo and her own strength.

She thinks that Lin Shuo should be one of the best among the younger generation of the people in the door, and she should be able to barely rank in the top twenty.

At that moment just now, she knew that she still underestimated Lin Shuo.

This man, not only is the threshold he has crossed unattainable, but he has already gone very far within the threshold.

In today's world, after the battle of Kunlun Mountain, it is likely that no one has gone further than him.

Anne thought silently in her heart, and followed behind Lin Shuo step by step.

Bypassing Jiunianggou, the two entered the mountains again.

Anne slowly recovered from the shock, glanced at Lin Shuo's back, and mustered up the courage to ask, "Mr. Lin, why did you show mercy to your subordinates just now?"

"How can you see that my subordinates are merciful?" Lin Shuo asked rhetorically.

"They have a life on them, and they want to kill you, and it's not a pity to die. Anne whispered, "You've only lost their arms." ”

"Death is not the best punishment for such people. Lin Shuo shook his head, "Life is better than death." ”

When Lin Shuo said this, Anne was slightly stunned, and then imagined the days after those eight people.

This harsh primitive environment, and the cottage that has been forced by the environment to have annihilated humanity.

Thinking about it, a chill rose in Anne's heart, and she shook her head, quickly dispelling the images in her mind.

Anne thought of the scene where Lin Shuo did it just now, and couldn't help asking, "Is what you did just now one of the 'Three Absolute Martial Arts' of the Lin Family's Secret Tradition?"

"Hmm. Lin Shuo responded.

"It's amazing. Anne praised, "Even if the late Mr. Zhang Lianhai comes back from the dead, I guess I won't be your opponent." ”

"Don't say anything like that. Lin Shuo frowned and said, "Brother Zhang has a half-teacher friendship with me, and he taught me. ”

"Oh. Anne pouted, looking down pitifully.

"Okay, don't look aggrieved, like I'm bullying you. Lin Shuo couldn't see this expression, shook his head and said, "You woman is really cold." I didn't hear a word of thanks for saving you just now. Now let's put it a little heavier, and you're not happy. ”

Anne was stunned for a moment, and she suddenly realized that Lin Shuo seemed to be coaxing herself.

With his temperament, it is actually very difficult to say such a thing.

However, Anne was not satisfied with this, she smiled and said, "Actually, I am very coaxing, Mr. Lin, as long as you tell me more about the hunting door, I will be happy immediately." ”

"Okay. Lin Shuo said as he hurried, "You should know about the six families, right?"

"Hmm. Jiangnan Lin, Saibeizhang, Yanyun Cao, Xiangxi Miao, Qiangdisu, Hu Guangyun, and the six families of Hunting. ”

"Since ancient times, although the six families of the Hunter Gate have acted alone most of the time, once they form a team, because of the different specialties of each family, they still have their own division of labor. ”

"I don't know about this, and I ask Mr. Lin for advice. ”

"Then let me ask you, what do you think the Lin family is good at?"

"The Lin family is the most lethal, the leader of the Hunter Gate, and the absolute core of the Hunter Squad. ”

"What about the Zhang family?"

"The Zhang family's Tang knife is unparalleled in the world, and it is the best choice for close combat. ”

"The Su family?"

"The Su family listens to the mountain enclosure and is good at investigation and control. ”

"What did the Cao family say?"

"The Cao family is exquisite, and he is a good at Qimen Dunjia, and he is a master of arithmetic, and he is the brains of the hunter team. ”

"The Miao family?"

"The Miao family is good at controlling Gu, and they are superb. ”

"You see you know everything, and you're still asking me what to do?" Lin Shuo glanced at Anne.

"But I don't know about the Yun family. Anne stuck out her tongue, "The Yun family is too mysterious, whether it is my mentor or the International Reputation Research Association, they are vague about the Yun family, they only know that this family exists, but no one knows what they are good at." It would be great if Mr. Lin could advise. ”

After Anne said this, she waited for Lin Shuo to give her an answer.

But her problem is like a stone sinking into the sea. The man in front of him was only in a hurry, as if he had forgotten about this stubble.

Anne was a woman with a lively mind, and she knew that Lin Shuo shouldn't want to say it, so she didn't urge.

It wasn't until he crossed a hill that Lin Shuo stopped by the stream, washed his face with water in his hand, and then said:

"The Yun family is indeed the most mysterious of the six families. Their abilities are unpredictable. For countless years before the Hunting Gate, the Yun family had been the leader of the Hunting Gate, and it was not until the last two hundred years that the Lin family slowly replaced him. ”

"Oh, I see. Anne also squatted down, washed away her face with stream water, and waited for Lin Shuo to continue.

"My mother is the heir of the Yun family. Lin Shuo said softly.
