Chapter 158: Ancient Secrets
Yi Feng's words made Lin Haoxuan silent, and he stretched out his hand to protect the map that had just been hidden in his chest, and Lin Haoxuan retreated. Resolutely carry out the instructions and stick to them.
And just when Yi Feng ordered Lin Haoxuan to defend it, Yi Feng's other move was also secretly arranged.
With Lin Haowen's first exploration, tens of thousands of elite soldiers led by Old Man Yao crossed the Cangjiang River like a sea and successfully rendezvous with Lin Haowen.
At this time, Lin Haowen was concentrating on pointing and drawing on the map, but the old man Yao on the side seemed a little interested.
"Although we have intercepted the grain and grass of the Jing army three times, now the Jing army is like a rainbow, and the country is in danger. Yao Lao, we can take a detour to the north, how about cutting off the back road of the Jing army?"
Yi Feng did not confer an official position on Old Man Yao, and although Old Man Yao was eccentric by nature, he was also open-minded, and he didn't care if others called him "Old Man Yao". As far as Yi Feng's subordinates were concerned, out of respect, they still respected the sentence "Yao Lao".
"The king entrusted this matter to you, and I just brought troops to you, and you decide. Old man Yao said indifferently, but his eyes looked at the carriage not far away from time to time.
Lin Haowen saw that Old Man Yao shirked like this, so he had to smile bitterly. But seeing his eyes looking at the vehicles not far away from time to time, he wondered, "Old Yao, what's wrong?"
"You said that you succeeded in robbing the grain thanks to the grandfather of the little girl named Ling'er?" said the old man Yao seemed to be casually, his eyes flickering and he couldn't see the depth.
Lin Haowen didn't realize that he was there, and said: "It's true that thanks to Ling'er's grandfather, if it weren't for his help, we might have been discovered by the Jing Army by now." However, Grandpa Ling'er's poison was too domineering, and now I can't help but feel a chill on my back when I think about it. ”
"He was invited by the king to help you?"
At this time, Lin Haowen was surprised and said, "Hasn't Yao Lao seen him before?"
Old man Yao replied: "I have never seen it, I only know that there is such a girl named Ling'er by the king's side, but I don't know that she also has a grandfather." ”
"Maybe it's because Grandpa Ling'er is obsessed with medicine. This Ling'er grandfather used to live in a simple house, and I wouldn't have known him if it weren't for a coincidence. Lin Haowen felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't say that there was anything wrong, so he had to defend Grandpa Ling'er with the idea of not offending both sides.
Old man Yao was noncommittal after hearing this, but he didn't say anything again. He couldn't help but think of Sanniang's previous warning to him, although he had always thought it was a worrying joke, but now he had to think about it seriously.
But in fact, Yi Feng didn't know anything about Grandpa Ling'er's use of poison, Yi Feng's initial idea was that he was afraid that Lin Haowen would see it, but he was cautious and mistook a big thing, but he really didn't expect that it would lead to a Ling'er grandfather who was both medical and poisonous. If Yi Feng knew what Old Man Yao was thinking at this time, he might only shout that he was wronged.
"Yao Lao, Yao Lao?"
"Well," Yao Lao came back to his senses, "what's wrong?"
Lin Haowen said: "Yao Lao hasn't said that we should take a detour to the north?"
Old Man Yao shook his head, "Didn't you say that everything is up to you?"
"Then tomorrow?" Lin Haowen didn't hear what Old Man Yao said that everything was up to him, so he still asked tentatively.
Old man Yao has been sophisticated for many years, and since he saw Lin Haowen's careful thinking, he said: "It's up to you to decide, you are in charge, I won't fight, it's impossible for the dove to occupy the magpie's nest." ”
Lin Haowen was a little embarrassed when he saw that his mind was exposed, and he smiled.
Old man Yao got up, "Okay, everything will be done as you say, I'll go and rest."
Rest. ”
"Yao Lao walked slowly. Lin Haowen knew that Old Man Yao didn't want to stay here to add embarrassment, so he also got up and accompanied him to the place where Old Man Yao was resting.
When he came back, Lin Haowen said to the left and right: "Inform the whole army that from tomorrow onwards, we will take Jingdao and go north in batches, and gather in Yinshan in Chudi, and pay attention to concealment during the period." ”
After Lin Haowen finished ordering, he picked up the map to study, but he didn't know that the old man Yao he had just sent away was back at this moment.
Picking up a small pebble at random, Old Man Yao found the opportunity to quickly hit the carriage.
In the carriage, Grandpa Ling'er, who was still resting with his eyes closed, heard the sound of the stone hitting the wooden wheel, and suddenly opened his eyes.
Glancing at Ling'er beside him, Ling'er's grandfather said kindly: "Little Ling'er, grandpa goes out, you should be careful." ”
Ling'er looked at Ling'er's grandfather and nodded slightly.
"Good bell. Grandpa Ling'er praised Ling'er before getting out of the carriage.
"Old man, where are you going?"
Grandpa Ling'er had just left the carriage and met the Buyi Qijun who was on guard at night.
Grandpa Ling'er said casually: "Stay in the carriage and be stuffy, I will come out and walk around." ”
"Feel free, old man, just don't go too far. ”
Grandpa Ling'er said a few more words to reassure a few cloth clothes Qijun, and then walked out slowly.
After a short journey, a black shadow flashed in front of Grandpa Ling'er's eyes, and Grandpa Ling'er looked at the location where the black shadow went, and his eyes flashed.
After a while, Grandpa Ling'er came to a relatively empty place in the forest, looked at the people who were already standing there, and said flatly: "It's you." ”
"You don't seem surprised. It was Old Man Yao who spoke, and after he said this, he also turned around and looked at Grandpa Ling'er.
"The old man had already noticed that someone was secretly peeping at me, and he was naturally not surprised to see the main master. Grandpa Ling'er replied calmly.
Old man Yao laughed strangely, "Calling old in front of me, are you sure you are qualified?"
Grandpa Ling'er suddenly laughed, "It's just a few more years to live, how do you know that I don't live as long as you." ”
Old man Yao seemed to have heard a big joke and laughed, "How many more years will you live?"
"It won't be long enough, I can still see this bit of death. ”
As soon as Grandpa Ling'er spoke, the laughter stopped abruptly, and Old Man Yao looked at Grandpa Ling'er with interest, "It's a little interesting." ”
"Each other, each other. ”
The evening breeze was raging, whistling with leaves. The two people who didn't know the details of each other looked at each other with a hint of a sinister smile.
As the wind blew by, Old Man Yao frowned, stretched out casually, and looked at Grandpa Ling'er with a little wicked smile, "You have already guessed a little bit of my situation, and you still use this useless poison?"
Grandpa Ling'er-for-tat: "I'm just verifying a little more thing, you can't see it so shallowly? Sure enough, at such an age, he has lived to the body of a dog, no wonder he is dying of life." ”
"Then I'll try your skills to be as poisonous as your mouth, but don't live to be a dog. As soon as the words fell, Old Man Yao had already made a move, and a swift palm hit Grandpa Ling'er's chest.
Just as he was about to succeed, Grandpa Ling'er dodged and avoided Old Man Yao's attack.
Silence ensued, and neither of them made another move, looking at each other and smiling.
"You're a master. ”
"You're really good at it. ”
The two spoke at the same time. Old Man Yao laughed a few more times, "Medicine and poison are both unique, and you have a strength that is not weaker than the peak of a half-immortal, you are really not simple." ”
Grandpa Ling'er also smiled wickedly, "You are like an immortal but not an immortal, you have the strength of an almost immortal, and you are not simple." ”
"Are you an immortal?" Then Old Man Yao shook his head and denied himself: "You won't be an immortal, you lack a fairy energy." ”
"I'm naturally not an immortal. Grandpa Ling'er said frankly, "But I know immortals, real immortals." ”
"A real immortal? hahaha. Old man Yao laughed, "That's just a legend! It's a joke." ”
Grandpa Ling'er stared at him and said loudly, "I think I know you." ”
"The death qi in your body is as if there is nothing, but it is extremely pure, and it stands to reason that you should be a person from that fault era. But you don't know that someone has become an immortal, which means that you are not a person from that fault era, but your death qi cannot be faked, so you should be in a certain state during that time, and there is no death qi. So you can only push forward, I guess your era is the ancient Qin Dynasty. ”
Grandpa Ling'er's eyes were a little sharper, "The last and most powerful generation of the ancient state power, Qin." ”
Hearing this long-awaited name again, Old Man Yao was a little distracted, and said frankly: "What you said is good, but how can you be sure? What happened after Qin?"
Grandpa Ling'er didn't expect that the person who had just been-for-tat would say such a thing, but when he saw his slightly distracted eyes, he also understood, and said with a bit of the same thing: "You also know that in ancient times, there was abundant aura, and people in ancient times could only use it simply, and it was not until the end of the Qin Dynasty that people could really use aura, and at that time, the sect government was much better than the national government." After the Qin Dynasty, the political system of the sect suddenly emerged, and the current world has undergone a general change. Today, the aura is exhausted, the contradictions are acute, and the state government is superior to the sect government, which has triggered a change in the world. ”
"I should have killed those great swordsmen in the first place!" Old Man Yao gritted his teeth for a moment.
Grandpa Ling'er continued: "After the destruction of Qin, there are many sects, and due to the more mature use of aura, there is no shortage of talents who have gone further, and even more people have become immortals and truly become immortals. After that, for some reasons, the immortals fought hard, which eventually led to the destruction of the souls, and the immortals disappeared, and the reasons for the immortals of various sects were extremely taboo, and many books were burned, and then with the death of that generation, it also became a fault. ”
Old man Yao was no longer interested in what Grandpa Ling'er said later, so Grandpa Ling'er made a long story short and briefly summarized it.
After getting the unexpected news, Old Man Yao fell silent, then raised his head and said, "Last question, do you have any contact with Yi Feng?"
Grandpa Ling'er finally knew Old Man Yao's worries, and said with a smile: "Yes, but it's not the kind of connection you think, but the kind of connection I don't want." ”
"So, offended. Old man Yao actually thanked him, "Thank you." ”
"Thank you. Grandpa Ling'er also suddenly said that he had really been lonely for too long.
After that, the two of them quietly went back quietly without incident.
The next day, Lin Haowen declared the precautions and asked everyone to go north in batches.
......
As soon as he passed by the dart gate in Chudi, the leading little brother exclaimed: "Boss, there are people on the side of the official road." ”
But it was Wang Yun who buried his brother who fainted after he died.
