16. Finding the sword
Walking out of the courtyard, Shaoyuan looked back.
The moonlight reflected the concentration in his eyes.
Lin Yan thought that he finally had a rare attachment to the weak and beautiful woman - after all, he had the soul of the original body fused with him, but what he said was: "Hey, as soon as I got out of the yard, I could see the big tree again." β
ββ¦β¦ Let's go. Lin Yan said, "She told you where the sword was buried, and you led the way." β
"What?"
Shaoyuan jumped up like a cat with its tail stepped on.
"Miss Li, Miss Liji only told me alone, and warned me not to let others know, you actually want to go with me?"
Lin Yan: "......"
It's strange when this guy doesn't kill people. Will he be rare with a broken sword?
"Very good, very good," Lin Yan said lightly, "Then you can dig it yourself." It's not too early, so I'll go back and rest first. β
He turned and walked away.
"Wait, wait," Shaoyuan thought for a while, and hurriedly reached out to grab him, "You better go with me." β
In the courtyard where they wept, there was a rockery and a pond, and there was a weeping willow next to the pond.
Shaoyuan walked under the weeping willows, took three more steps to the east, and stopped: "This is it, she wants me to dig up this place." β
"So close?" Lin Yan was a little surprised.
"yes, that's what she said. Shaoyuan said.
He glanced at his feet, then at Lin Yan, who also looked at him silently.
After looking at each other for a moment, Lin Yan said, "...... Yes, master, I'm going to dig up here. β
He unloaded a piece of gravel from the rockery, broke a branch, made a simple digging tool, and then scooped up the soil with a shovel.
Although he had never dug in his life, his movements were still simple and effective, and in a few moments, a deep pit appeared in the ground.
Lin Yan went down with a shovel again, and suddenly felt abnormal.
In the dark pit, it was as if someone had struck a match, and the light of the fire shone sharply into their eyes.
A shiny round pebble, lying quietly at the bottom of the pit.
"Didn't you turn a sword into a stone?" Shao Yuan said strangely.
He jumped into the pit, scooped it up, and took it in his hand to examine it carefully.
It turned out to be an amber, and there was a beetle sealed in the amber, and even the small lines on the wings could be clearly seen.
"Huh, what's this!" Shaoyuan said.
At his scream, the surface of the amber was torn apart, and the beetle fell out of itβmoving its tentacles, flapping its wings, and still alive.
Then, without looking back, the pale golden beetle flew out of the pit and flew in a certain direction.
"This is the sub-Gu of the Latent Shadow Gu, it will lead us to the location of the Mother Gu, chase after it!" Lin Yan said.
He immediately followed, and Shao Yuan also hurriedly caught up.
I saw that Zi Gu had been flying over most of the mountain villa and flew over Yingyue Lake, and it suddenly stopped in the air, hesitated for a while, and another fierce man drilled into the water.
Lin Yan silently recited a water avoidance spell, and also escaped into the water.
After a while, he floated up with a long, narrow sword box.
What you hide with the Shulker Gu can't be seen under your nose, and you can't detect it with spells. Li Ji's effort to hide the Taikang Sword is really not shallow, so it's no wonder that the father and son can't find it.
The sword in the box has been taken out by Shaoyuan.
The body of the sword is flowing with a sparkling brilliance, full of aura, and it is indeed a good sword.
"Let's go ......," Shaoyuan said.
At that moment, arrows flew at him. When it comes to the word "go", he has become a sieve.
Long before those flying arrows approached, Lin Yan opened a shield wall barrier and blocked them all outside.
"Your master is dead, and you are free. This has nothing to do with you, give me the sword, and I'll let you go!" said an old voice.
Lin Yan thought to himself, if Shao Yuan was really his master, he might consider this tiyi.
But no.
"Father, just kill him together, how can we let him go. Another younger voice said, "He killed many of us today, and threatened to throw us all into the lake to feed the fish, and now that his master has made fish feed, let him go with him!"
Lin Yan looked back.
Sure enough, it was the father and son who took away the original owner and occupied Fanjia Villa.
They apparently followed all the way here.
Let Shaoyuan meet Li Ji, which is also in their plan. Li Ji refused to tell them the whereabouts of the Taikang Sword, in front of her lover, she should have said it, right? This Taikang Sword was originally the ancestral heirloom of the Fan family, after Li Ji became an earth binding spirit, it was useless to keep it in her hands, she would definitely return it to Fan Shaoyuan.
Just take this opportunity to find the Taikang Sword and kill people and seize the treasure......
It's a pity that although they played a good abacus, they miscalculated the most crucial thing.
No matter how the other party shouted, Lin Yan only smiled and ignored it.
After Shaoyuan was tied into a tattered sack, he dissipated into the air. The Taikang Sword was still hovering in the air, emitting a faint blue light, as if an invisible hand was holding it.
"Fish feed? So you also care about whether the little fish in the lake are hungry?"
His grinning voice suddenly floated out of nowhere.
Shaoyuan's ontology "mirage" was born in Shuize, wandering in the rivers and seas, with a little natural affinity for the fish, fish, shrimp and shrimp in the water.
The father and son's faces had changed.
They watched Shao Yuan be pierced by flying arrows with their own eyes, and even their breath had dissipated. Did this sound come from the underworld?
In their surprised eyes, Shaoyuan's figure gradually emerged in the night.
Not just one, but two, three...... A whole lot of abyss.
Each Shaoyuan held a Taikang sword and said with a smile: "Which one do you guess is real?" β
