Chapter 63 The Easiest Task
After lunch, Old Man Wu changed his urging for days, and did not immediately take Lin Yu and others out of the cave to search for traces of the saber-toothed tiger, but instead let everyone have a good rest and set off early tomorrow morning.
As for the rest of the raw meat, he set it on the fire and continued to roast it for dinner and beyond.
Lin Yu stood outside the cave with his stomach propped up, extracted a part of the water from the waterfall with his mental strength, and carefully washed the deer skin.
Old man Wu was barbecuing meat in the cave, Zhao Xiang and Zhou Jingnan meditated and breathed, and Bai Shenghua and Hua Wudi continued to be vigilant, but they were also outside the cave at this time.
Here, they can't see the sun and can only rely on the dial on the compass to confirm the time.
It is estimated that it was dusk, and Lin Yu dried the cleaned deerskin on the stones on the side. Wipe the beads of sweat off your forehead and quietly look into the distance.
At this point, he finally had his own space, and since entering the Realm of Greed, he had been with other people, and there was little chance to calm down and think about his own affairs.
The cultivation has begun, and although he has not yet reached the requirements of the Black Shadow, he has made great progress compared to two months ago, and he also has some understanding of the Huaxia Continent.
He didn't know how to express his feelings for the ruined city, and he didn't know who to confide in.
He can't tell Wang Xiaopang about his grandfather, at least not for the time being, he maintains a vigilant attitude towards the teachers and disciples in the academy.
Although he trusted them, these people deeply minded his status as an abandoned city, which caused a rift in his heart.
And this estrangement, like a river, cut off his soul from everything in the academy.
Even if it was Bai Yiyu, Liu Meilin's attitude towards him was more relaxed than everyone else, but Lin Yu could still feel the unspeakable emotions mixed in it, like a virus, slowly spreading between them.
Is identity so important?
Lin Yu didn't quite understand, but he felt that he had a place in the hearts of these people.
Liu Dashao's strength and Zhao Xiang came to participate in this mission at a low stage.
Both of these things told him this very bluntly.
But he still doesn't understand what "identity" represents
Power, lust, or wealth
If it is wealth, then it is true that it does not exist now, and if it is power, then other disciples are not the same as themselves.
Looking at the dark clouds in the sky, Lin Yu lay beside the stone wall at the edge of the cave, thinking in his heart blankly.
Whether it was caused by the fall of the ruined city or whether there was something else hidden in it, he didn't know at the moment.
But he kept in mind Li Ya's words: be careful, be cautious
In the Greedy Domain, Lin Xuan can be said to be alone, in terms of identity, he is completely different from other disciples, in this kind of place, if he wants to be safe, his nerves are almost difficult to relax, even now, he will still use his afterglow from time to time to skim towards Bai Shenghua and Hua Wudi, who are whispering not far away.
He was two or three years younger than the other disciples, but they never thought of protecting him, they all relied on others, especially Old Man Wu.
In fact, from the bottom of his heart, Lin Xuan also wanted to rely on Old Man Wu, but he knew that it was difficult for him to be like others.
Although Old Man Wu will also help him at a dangerous juncture, it is limited to the relationship between teachers and students.
In private, Old Man Wu almost never talked to him alone.
As for others, Old Man Wu is also obviously more attentive to himself, which Lin Xuan has already seen.
If it was himself who was lost, not Zhou Jingnan, would Old Man Wu bring everyone to look for him?
Lin Yu looked at the gloomy sky and thought about this question in his mind.
Although the question was of little value, Lin Xuan couldn't help but think about it.
Will it be, or won't it?
He didn't have an answer in his mind, in other words, he was afraid of that answer.
Even though he realized his identity, he was so embarrassed and unpopular.
But when I thought of Wang Xiaopang, the fat brother who met him at his age, he felt a little more comfortable.
The moonlight shone through the dark clouds at some point, and shone towards Lin Yu, although it was faint, and he could almost only feel a little light, but it was stronger than nothing.
The deerskin on the side has also dried, hard and bulging, and the fur is very soft and warm to the touch.
After thinking for a while, Lin Xuan was bored and slowly roasted towards the deerskin with the fire control technique, while practicing the control of the fire control technique.
In the past few days, the only chanting technique he used was the fire resistance technique, perhaps because Old Man Wu was also using it, and he had never used the chanting technique of the other four attributes.
However, after many performances, Lin Yu felt that his control of fire resistance was much better than when he first learned it.
I also have some experience in the release and recovery of mental power.
Because the black shadow did not take the initiative to help him deal with the monsters in the Greedy Domain in the past few days, Lin Xuan accumulated a lot of experience in several actual battles.
Returning to the cave with the deerskin, Lin Yu saw that everyone had already started to eat dinner. Although Old Man Wu didn't eat, he kept adding firewood to the fire.
Bai Shenghua and Hua Wudi sat beside Zhou Jingnan.
Zhao Xiang sat alone on the side, eating venison in his mouth, when he saw Lin Yu walking in, he stretched out his hand and pointed to the oily venison on the fire, and motioned for him to hurry up and eat it.
Lin Yu walked up to him, put the deerskin on his bag, and unceremoniously used a dagger to cut a large piece of the roasted meat above the fire, and sent it to his mouth fiercely.
Everyone was speechless, and each ate the venison in his hand.
Due to Lin Yu's late return, everyone else had eaten almost enough.
Holding the kettle and drinking the water, relieving the oiliness in the mouth.
The fire was reflected on everyone's faces, and Lin Xuan ignored them, continued to cut off the venison, and ate it in a big gulp.
He only drank a few sips of the pot of deer blood at noon, and at this time he was eating barbecue and drinking deer blood, not to mention how comfortable the whole person was.
After eating and drinking, Old Man Wu said to everyone: I will come to the vigil tonight, and the five of you will rest.
Early tomorrow morning, hurry up and set off to capture the saber-toothed tiger.
Today is the third day. There are only four days left for us, and if we fail to complete our mission in those four days, we will be left empty-handed.
"Teacher, we can't catch the saber-toothed tiger, are we going to leave here on the last day?"
As soon as Bai Shenghua finished speaking, Old Man Wu sighed and said: Yes, the situation has changed, today you also heard the words of the human-faced strange bird, the matter is very tricky now, and the domain of greed has been mixed with the demons in the Black Forest.
It's a terrible situation right now, even though we've completed the task to pass your assessment.
But if you don't catch the sabertooth on the last day, I'll have to take you back to the academy first. As for you, you need to accept the task again and complete it again.
"However, I said in the front, this mission is the easiest one in more than ten years" Old man Wu said with a straight face towards Lin Yu and the five people: If you can't even complete this task, it is estimated that the next mission, you will be even more...
"You know what I mean?"
Old man Wu asked Bai Shenghua
Bai Shenghua nodded silently
