Chapter 53: The Mysterious Masked Man

Lin Tian looked at the kind old man in Shen Meng's arms, his heart was a little distressed, he lit a cigarette, took a deep breath, spit out the smoke ring, and felt that his chest cavity was much better.

"Mengmeng, give Wu Xi a call. ”

After Lin Tian finished speaking, he hung up the phone to Ouyang Pengfei, Ouyang Pengfei and Wu Xi were chatting in the park at the moment, and when they saw the phone coming, they smiled and said that Lin Tian must be thinking about himself.

After Ouyang Pengfei received the call, his face became more and more ugly, Wu Xi was still talking to himself, and when he saw Pengfei's ugly face in a blink of an eye, he had a bad premonition.

"Xiaoxi, you have to be strong, no matter when, I will be by your side. ”

After Peng Fei hung up the phone, he said these words to Wu Xi with a solemn expression, and he didn't know what to say when his loved ones died.

"How do you say this, it makes it feel like you want to live and die. ”

Wu Xi smiled indifferently and said that until the phone rang and the phone was connected, Shen Meng on the other end was still crying and saying that Grandma Wu was gone.

"What are you talking about? Mengmeng, don't joke with me, you must be joking with me, right, you can't talk nonsense about this kind of thing, be careful of me... Be careful of me..."

Wu Xi smiled reluctantly at Shen Meng at first, and the more he talked, the more he couldn't stop the tears that fell down, until he couldn't say any more, and suddenly stood up and ran with all his strength in the direction of Shen Meng's house.

Seeing this, Ouyang Pengfei immediately followed, and sent a message to Lin Tian to say that he would arrive soon, and the two of them ran like this for ten minutes, and finally arrived at Shen Meng's house.

"Grandma. ”

Panting, Wu Xi looked at her grandmother who fell in Shen Meng's arms, shouted, and then due to the surge of qi and blood, she suddenly fainted with cerebral congestion, but fortunately, Ouyang Pengfei's eyes were quick and he helped her all of a sudden.

"Boss, this... What's going on?"

Ouyang Pengfei was inconvenient to talk about on the phone just now, and now he is also asking anxiously. Wu Xi's grandmother knows it, it is much stronger than his own strength, and it stands to reason that it is not so easy to fall.

"There's no way, sometimes it's beyond our reach, but it's related to the meteorite outside the sky, I didn't expect it to have something to do with the Shen family, since the four domain families have all made a move, then there must be more than just one. ”

Lin Tian frowned and said, he now feels that there are more and more things involved, even the family is involved, he can't investigate too deeply now, it seems that there is always a shadow of that force, but he can't say what's wrong.

Ouyang Pengfei nodded, didn't say anything more, put Wu Xi into the bed, Lin Tian was smoking on the balcony, Ouyang Pengfei walked over and asked for a cigarette.

"How is it? Now your strength is a little stretched, Shen Meng has also reached the Wang Xuan Realm, you are only in the late stage, you have to hurry up, after all, a little more strength is also a little more self-preservation. ”

Lin Tian looked into the distance, thousands of high-rise buildings, the lights were shining in the sky above the entire Tiandu, the streets were full of people coming and going, some of them were intimate between lovers, and some were friends in three or two who teased the mountains at the barbecue stall, although they were just ordinary people, they had the plainness and happiness of ordinary people.

"I don't know, wait for the Ability Academy to open, you know, my problem is in the knot in my heart, not in my cultivation, the knot in my heart is incomprehensible, and my strength can only stagnate. ”

Ouyang Pengfei's tone was mixed with sentimentality, if he had a choice, he just wanted to be an ordinary person.

"We are destined to be extraordinary, we must always let go of something, with their beliefs instead of becoming our own obsessions, this is the way we want to go, even if you are gone in the end, or I am gone, the other person has to shoulder the mission of the other party to go on, this is the meaning of our life. ”

Lin Tian said lightly, this is the truth that Grandma Wu taught him just now, whether it is Shen Yu or Shen Meng, he wants to protect it with his life, because of Shen Yu's death and indulged in the past, but if one day Shen Meng also has an accident, then his attachment will have no meaning, and he will only be more persistent. Shen Yu is gone, he has a place in his heart, as for Shen Meng, it is what he wants to cherish now.

"But you know what? As soon as I closed my eyes, it was that operation, that mission, we watched our teammates fall in front of us one by one, blowing ourselves up with their abilities, giving us a way to live, we stepped over their bodies, and survived, I couldn't find out what the meaning of my life was, every day like this, I was drunk, laughing, being a prodigal, in fact, I was just trying to hide my pain. ”

Ouyang Pengfei closed his eyes and said bitterly. This period of the past has become his nightmare, lingering, which is also the reason why he can't devote himself to cultivation and his strength is slowly improving.

"What do you think they let us live for? Do they want to see us fall like we've fallen willingly? They want us to live, they want us to continue their unfinished business, to protect the people they want to protect, to shoulder their mission. ”

Lin Tian patted Ouyang Pengfei on the shoulder, hoping that he could understand that even he had just thought clearly, the obsession of struggling and not being able to get over it was meaningless, but would hinder his steps, he should cherish the people in front of him from now on, and the deceased should leave a place in their hearts, shoulder their responsibilities, and protect the world.

"Captain, let me think about it, how to get through the current situation? What is the next road? The extraterrestrial meteorite is too involved, and the overall strength of our side is not strong, once the other side wants to deal with us, then I am afraid we will not be able to parry. ”

Ouyang Pengfei recognized the current situation clearly, he had no choice, now Lin Tian is similar to a light pole commander, only he is the one who respects the realm, everyone else is Wang Xuanjing, Xuanhuang is still cultivating, and Shen Meng does not have much actual combat experience, and his strength is pulling his hips again.

"Next, enter the Alien Academy, secretly develop your forces, and work hard to cultivate in the Alien Academy, I went so fast that you didn't keep up with me, I will consider going to the sect management office, I am a little puzzled, why hasn't the person behind Ye Zhang come forward yet, so calm. Whether they are planning something bigger, we don't know, we don't have that much time, we can only try to have a little bit of self-preservation as soon as possible before the catastrophe strikes. ”

Lin Tian said the next plan, Ouyang Pengfei thought about it, and nodded in agreement. It's almost like this, the Abnormal Ability Academy is going to openly recruit students this time, it must smell something, an academy that has been standing for so many years, it is impossible not to know everything, maybe everything is known, Lin Tian thought secretly.

The two of them did not speak again, and both looked quietly into the distance.

And an old man with mutilated hands walked into a small and inconspicuous house, which was empty, with only a black back, and a person with two horns on his head with his back to him, and his face could not be seen clearly, but between breathing and breathing, it seemed that the air was also frozen.

"Your Excellency. ”

Ye Zhang knelt down and shouted in some shock.

"Ye Zhang, why didn't you bring people over?"

The black figure turned around, wearing a hideous mask, and asked in an indifferent tone without hearing emotion.

"It's incompetent, and this mission has failed. ”

Ye Zhang knelt tremblingly, his head bowed to the ground and did not dare to raise it, and said in a panic.

"What's the matter? The pinnacle of the dignified realm has become like this? Did Nong meet Tianxuan? No, if he met Tianxuan, let alone you, even I wouldn't be able to come back. ”

The masked man's tone was a little cold, and Ye Zhang lowered his head even more when he heard it.

"No, it's a young man, stronger than me, with a black thunder ability, and that ability also has the attribute of incineration, and even my ability was incinerated to the ground, and I was careless ......for a while."

Ye Zhang's voice became smaller and smaller as he spoke, and he didn't know whether the mood of the person in front of him was good or bad.

"Black thunder, with the power of burning flames, if it is correct, it should be the Silent Thunder, is it already born? It stands to reason that it will take three years, why is it so fast this time, is the other party a Saint Heaven Realm?"

The masked man's tone was a little puzzled, and there was a hint of concern, as if things had happened unexpectedly.

"My lord, this person is the strength of the half-step Holy Heaven, the little one tried everything to escape back, and then the target did not kill, he was derelict in his duties, and asked the adult to punish him. ”

Ye Zhang was also hardened, knowing that it was pointless for him to play any tricks in front of the people in front of him, it was better to take the initiative to ask for guilt, maybe people were in a good mood and spared themselves.

"Although your mission failed this time, but you have discovered a bigger secret, I will not punish you, you go down. There are also people from the sect management office, you have to pay attention to one point, don't show your feet. Investigate the man's information secretly so that he doesn't find out. ”

Sure enough, just like Ye Zhang's material, the masked man didn't punish him, Ye Zhang walked out of the door with a thousand thanks, exhaled, relaxed only to find that his back was all wet, and hurriedly left here.

"Silence Thunder, Half-Step Holy Heaven, I don't know how you appeared, and it's already a climate. But I don't have time to care about you right now, and I'll clean you up when I have my hands free. ”

The masked man muttered, and then his figure disappeared, Lin Tian didn't know that he had been noticed at this moment, and he was still here with Shen Meng and the others to help Wu Xi take care of Granny Wu's funeral.

Three days have passed in a blink of an eye, and Tiandu University has announced a one-month holiday, and Lin Tian knows that these are all preparations for the enrollment of the Ability Academy in the future.

"Wu Xi, you take this piece of cardboard in your hand, feel with your heart that there will be a warm qi in your dantian, and slowly guide that qi to your hand, if this paper is wet, it is Xuanshui, if this paper is cracked, it is platinum, if it is a missing corner to make up, it is Aoki, if it is burned to ashes, it is vermilion, if it becomes a fragment, it is loess ability. ”

Lin Tian took out a piece of cardboard with a missing corner and gave it to Wu Xi, telling her how to channel her ability to determine her ability attributes.

At this moment, Wu Xi stood on the ground, his eyes were closed, feeling the flow of air, his index finger and middle finger were holding the cardboard, and a stream of heat in his body was gradually channeled to the tip of his hand, and suddenly the cardboard on his hand burned into ashes.

"It's Zhu Huo. ”

Ouyang Pengfei looked at the ashes on the ground and muttered.

"No, it's kind of weird, come on, try again. ”

Lin Tian always felt that something was wrong, although it was burned to ashes, but it seemed that there was a change in the paper jam before burning.

"Boss, isn't that obvious?

Ouyang Pengfei was a little nervous, and Wu Xi also looked at Lin Tian with some surprise.

"Wu Xi, you will stop when I tell you to stop. ”

Lin Tian ignored them, wanted to confirm his conjecture, and gave them a reassuring look.

Wu Xi nodded, took the jammed paper, and did it again as before, but this time it was not fully guided, Lin Tian shouted to stop, only to see that the jammed paper in her hand suddenly cracked into two.

"This... Could it be a platinum ability?"

Ouyang Pengfei was also stunned, and didn't react for a while.

"Go on. ”

Lin Tian ignored him and asked Wu Xi to continue, only to see that the jammed paper in Wu Xi's hand quickly burned to ashes.

"Double ability. ”

The corners of Lin Tian's mouth raised, confirming his conjecture.

"Wow, double ability, one in ten thousand, Xixi, you're amazing. ”

Ouyang Pengfei also said happily, Shen Meng also mentioned that Wu Xi was happy, only Lin Tian frowned, as if he had thought of something, but he still didn't say it.

The room was filled with laughter and laughter, and Wu Xi also began to embark on the path of cultivation.
