Chapter 124: Exposure in the Moonlight
Looking at Kerr's happy appearance, Lin Tian seemed to see the shadow of his childhood, the appearance of his brother and sister when they doted on him. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Ke'er was happy for a while, then suddenly stopped and asked, "Then big brother, will you protect me?" ”
"Of course, I'm your brother." Lin Tian also liked this lively little girl very much, and when he saw that she looked innocent and asked such a question, he immediately said that his brother would definitely protect his sister.
"Then will you help Kerr fight the bandits? Those bandits always come to bully us, they are bad and always bully us. Ke'er frowned at the little embroidered brow, looking angry.
Seeing that his daughter was talking more and more presumptuously, the bearded man suddenly looked a little unsightly, and said a little angrily: "Ke'er, there is a father in the matter of fighting bandits, what do you want the eldest brother to help do, the eldest brother has other very important things, maybe he will leave tomorrow, don't mess around." ”
Hearing the bearded man say that Lin Tian might leave at any time, Ke'er stopped doing it, and suddenly his little mouth pursed Lao Gao, and he seemed to be a little angry, ignoring Lin Tian and the bearded, and turned around and went into the kitchen to find his mother.
Looking at the smiling figure, Lin Tian touched the bridge of his nose and said with a smile: "Brother Biaozi, don't treat children like this, she is still young, and what she needs is love." ”
"Brother Biao, can you tell me what the bandits in Luofeng Mountain are all about? Maybe I can really help. ”
"Alas, it's hard to say at this time, come, drink, let me tell you slowly." Thinking of the words released by those bandits a few days ago, he was still very scared in his heart, those bandits who were going to kill people if they didn't agree with each other. The bearded man picked up the wine bowl and pulled Lin Tian to drink.
The bearded man took a sip of wine and sighed: "Alas, it's been a long time, I just don't know if I can drink it again." He put down the bowl as he spoke.
"The bandits of Luofeng Mountain are a group of outlaws, they rely on their strength and strength to burn, kill and loot everywhere, I don't know how many villages have been harmed."
"Isn't there anyone to destroy them?" Lin Tian didn't know the details of the soul realm, so he didn't dare to say anything rashly.
"Tube? How? The bearded man raised his head, glanced at the kitchen, and saw that the voices of Ke'er and Yue'e came from the kitchen from time to time, so he put his mind at ease, and said to Lin Tian mysteriously: "I accidentally heard last time that the bandit boss of Luofeng Mountain seems to be an immortal, just how we ordinary people care, the big man in the county town will not care about us small people." ”
"Immortals? What kind of immortals? Brother Biao, do you know his specific situation? And why is the big man in the county town unwilling to take care of it? ”
"Immortals are people who can fly into the sky, I haven't seen what it looks like, as for the big lord of the county town, I think he must be afraid, in the past, the bandits of Luofeng Mountain would send him a large sum of gold and silver every year, and then I don't know where an immortal came from to lead the bandits of Luofeng Mountain, since then the bandits have never given the big man a dime, you think, the bandits don't give money, the big lord must be very angry, the result of the anger is that the big man sent troops to exterminate the bandits, But the big man sent 100,000 people before and after, and in the end, no Lakers came back. ”
After speaking, the bearded man seemed to have palpitations, picked up the wine bowl and took a sip of wine.
Lin Tian saw that he was affectionate and nervous, as if he had experienced it himself, and then he also picked up the wine bowl, took a sip of tea, and said with a smile: "Brother Biaozi must have been very beautiful before." ”
"That is, I think I was also clothed and fed back then, glorious and wealthy." The bearded man didn't care, and said casually, as soon as the words fell, he immediately regretted it, and immediately changed his words: "Where, my brother said that I was laughing, I am just an ordinary person, where did the scenery come from." ”
"Brother Biaozi, you don't have to hide it from me, I think you must have been a soldier before, and you may still be an official." Lin Tian smiled and said casually.
Just such a sentence almost scared the bearded soul, and suddenly his face was a little unnatural, and he said with a smile: "How can my brother see that I am a soldier, I am really just an ordinary person." ”
Lin Tian pointed to the bearded hand with his mouth, and said with a smile: "If the eldest brother is really a common man, then you might as well take out your hand and let me see it." , the calluses on the palms of people who have been soldiers all year round must be very heavy, don't believe you to look at it. ”
The bearded man knew that what Lin Tian said was right, and waved his hand and said, "Yes, I am indeed a soldier, I don't know how you can tell it." ”
"Do you remember your knowledge of holding a scythe when we met in the mountains, and your look of guarding against me is too different from those ordinary people, plus the look you just said when the lord of the county sent troops to exterminate the bandits, I think you must have been one of the people who participated in the extermination operation back then."
The bearded man was about to say something, when he suddenly heard the sound of talking stop in the kitchen, Yue'er came over with a small plate of delicious food, and Ke'er was following behind and inhaling the aroma of the food, looking very cute.
The bearded man glanced at Lin Tian intentionally or unintentionally, and when he saw that his wife and children were there, he didn't talk about what happened just now, so he immediately changed the topic and asked about Lin Tian.
Lin Tian didn't dare to say too much rashly, and always excused himself on the grounds that he was studying martial arts with his master in the deep mountains and didn't know about human affairs.
The four of them finished dinner in laughter, and Yue'e cleaned up a grass hut for Lin Tian to live in temporarily.
lit the oil lamp and looked at the dark piece outside the window, Lin Tian's whole person was a little depressed, could it be that the weather was really bad today, it was foggy during the day, and it was completely dark at night.
At this moment, the bearded man pushed the door in, and when he saw Lin Tian looking out the window, he suddenly became a little curious, and said, "What is Brother Lin looking at?" ”
When Lin Tian saw the bearded man coming in, he immediately turned his head and smiled: "Why is there no moon this night, not even a star." ”
Hearing Lin Tian say that there were no moons and stars at night, the bearded man suddenly lost his voice in surprise and said, "You are not from here?" ”
"How do you say that, I'm from here." Lin Tian's quibbling is weak, but he can't let others see that he is a living person, and if he is seen by others, he may cause some trouble.
The bearded man looked at it again and again, and said, "If it is really a person here, you will not know that the moon can only come out during the day, and the night here has been dark for thousands of years, without a trace of light. ”
"Why is there a moon here during the day? No moon at night? Lin Tianmeiyi immediately replied to the bearded man, but asked his doubts first.
The bearded man was a little panicked and said: "This is the soul realm, if the sun comes out during the day, the soul realm is not going to be extinct, and the moon represents the soul, so we will only have a foggy sky here during the day, and there will be no stars at night." ”
"The moon represents the soul?"
"The sun represents the true human world, and the moon shines on the human world of our soul world, in fact, the effect is the same."
Lin Tian finally realized that he had said the wrong thing, so he said to the bearded man: "Big brother, I hope you can keep it secret for me, I have something very important here, I hope you don't say it." ”
After seeing Lin Tian admit that he was not from here, the bearded man's whole person changed, and he said in a panic: "How did you come here, you must know that there has been no living person here for a long time." ”
"I was sent by my master with great magical powers, and he asked me to help him find something. Listen to the meaning of the eldest brother, there are living people who have been here before? ”
"I also heard the legendary story told by a veteran before, I don't know if it's true, what to say that tens of thousands of years ago, immortals could enter and leave the world and the soul world at will, and then the war between gods and demons began, countless living beings were killed, and for a time the soul world was overcrowded, and the soul king had no choice but to close all the channels in the soul world, and only after thousands of years did he slowly open two channels, one for mortals, and the other for immortals."
"The soul realm will also be overcrowded?" This time it was Lin Tian's turn to be surprised.
"Yes, the sudden increase in countless souls for a while, the soul monarch can't bear it at all, in fact, except for the moon hanging in the sky and the difference between the sun in the world, everything else is pretty much the same, only the hierarchical system, and the high soul monarch is different from the human world." The bearded man said disappreciatively.
"Soul Monarch? What kind of existence is that? Lin Tian asked.
The bearded man sighed with emotion: "Where can I know about his old man, what I know is still the story told by others, just now you said that you are looking for something, can you tell me?" Maybe I can help. ”
Lin Tian's matter has already been said, so it doesn't matter, when he was about to tell the bearded man about his search for the spirit grass, the bearded man has limited knowledge after all, and he shook his head and said: "I haven't heard of it, maybe the bandits who fell into Fengshan know that their leader is also an immortal, I saw that you can come to the soul realm, presumably you must also be an immortal." ”
Lin Tian thought about it and felt that what the bearded man said was very reasonable, and immediately nodded, and when the bearded man saw Lin Tian admit that he was an immortal, he immediately suppressed his impulsive heart, but shouted in his heart: "We are saved." ”
