Chapter 3 Choices
In the blink of an eye, fourteen years have passed. On the wharf south of Kaiyang Village, there are old and young, the old one is Lin Lao, and the young one is naturally the swaddling child back then.
At this time, he was dressed in white and had black hair, his clothes and hair were flowing and elegant, not tied or tied, slightly fluttering, and his eyes flashed with a thousand kinds of glazed light. Although he was wearing a cloth shirt, there was a faint light flashing on his body.
His grandfather Lin once said that his eyes were like his mother's, as clear as obsidian and shining like stars. But whenever he asked about his parents, his grandfather Lin would always refuse, saying that he would tell him when he became an adult.
Lin Lao looked at the young man beside him and thought back to what had happened in the past fourteen years. For example, after Lao Li's daughter-in-law was weaned, the people in the village searched for him in more than a dozen villages before finding a wet nurse who was still in the lactation period.
For example, Bai Chen took other children in other villages to go directly to the sea to fish, and finally wandered to a desert island, and the whole village searched for a day and a night before finding them.
For example, a few years ago, pirates invaded and destroyed the village, and no one took care of the Wufu, so he sneaked into the Wufu late at night and directly threatened the mansion owner to let him protect Kaiyang Village. Therefore, Kaiyang Village has developed very well in recent years, and has become the largest fishing village in the vicinity, although the people in the village still believe that it is blessed by the god of the sea.
Bai Chen also has a lot of friends, and the relationship between Hu Niu and Li Potian is the best, and it can be said that they are friends who grew up with bare butts.
Lin Lao and Bai Chen also settled in Kaiyang Village, and fifteen years ago, with the help of the whole village, Lin Lao built a house of his own on the side of the village. Lin Lao grew up with Bai Chen, Bai Chen was also very sensible, their life in Kaiyang Village was very harmonious, and they were not excluded at all because they were outsiders.
............
Thinking of this, the corners of Lin Lao's mouth slowly hooked up a trace of arc, maybe he himself couldn't imagine that he, an old man who hadn't laughed much in the god realm for thousands of years, gradually smiled when he arrived here. Is that what home feels like? haha, maybe!!
In the past fourteen years, Lin Lao has never taught Bai Chen martial arts, but only let him cultivate his spiritual power, because of martial arts, in recent years, except for the purer spiritual power, his level has not increased.
Although he had many questions in his mind, he never asked why. Today, the village chief told him that he will go to Wufu next year to enroll, and Wufu will only recruit students under the age of 18, and once every three years. If you miss this time, Bai Chen will have no chance.
Xiao Chen called Grandpa Lin here today, just to ask the question that had been hidden in his heart for a long time. He knew that if Grandpa Lin still didn't let him learn martial arts, he would definitely not learn it. Because - this is his Grandpa Lin!!
"Grandpa Lin, why did you never let me practice martial arts, Hu Niu and they all started practicing after they were ten years old?" Bai Chen hesitated for a long time, but still asked.
"Alas~~" Elder Lin let out a long sigh and looked at the sunset in the distance, "I know you will ask sooner or later, and I have been entangled in my heart all these years." ”
Back then, Lin Lao Jue taught him the cultivation of spiritual power in order to numb himself, but paralysis was short-lived after all!!, "Maybe it's time for you to know some facts, Xiao Chen!"
“...... Grandpa Lin, or I won't:..."
"About your parents' !!" Before Bai Chen could finish speaking, Lin Lao interrupted him and said.
Bai Chen instantly quieted down, the sea breeze blew on the face of the old and the young, Bai Chen's long hair fluttered, and the muscles on his body were trembling unconsciously, Bai Chen understood that he was afraid, but obviously he wanted to know about his parents for the past few years, but, at this moment, when his grandfather Lin was about to tell himself, he was actually - afraid!
He tried to calm his mood, tried to calm himself, and then said, "Grandpa Lin, you, tell me, I'm ready!!"
"Once you know, you can decide for yourself whether you want to learn martial arts or not. ”
"Good!!"
Lin Lao's right hand slowly raised, and his index finger tapped Bai Chen's forehead, and in an instant, the images that had appeared in Lin Lao's dreams countless times over the years were repeated in Bai Chen's mind again.
The twilight is dim, the remnant sun is like blood, and the end of the sea is like a gold-edged sunset, which is round at this time, radiant and dazzling, and the dazzling eye mask is like a dream, so unreal.
In the distance, fishing boats gradually returned, and there was some noise on the dock, and the old and young of the sunset, they did not move, and no one disturbed them, so they sat quietly.
The sea eventually swallowed up the sun, and the moon went out to sea, and the bright moonlight shone on the surface of the sea and reflected on the faces of the old and the young. Seeing two lines of tears on Bai Chen's cheeks, he slowly opened his eyes, looked at Grandpa Lin in front of him, and said slowly: "Grandpa Lin, I want to learn martial arts!"
"Good !!......"
Lin Lao seemed to have expected Bai Chen to make such a choice, because he understood that this young man's body was flowing with that man's blood, how could he bow to difficulties?
At the same time, he wanted to know even more about how far this person who inherited the Seven Stars Divine Vein could go from the mortal realm?
The two of them gradually fell asleep under the blowing of the sea breeze, and both of them slept very soundly this night.
The secrets that Lin Lao had been entangled in his heart all these years were finally told today, and the questions that Bai Chen had been bothering him all these years were finally answered today.
Although it is cruel, at least you will not be confused in your life after that!!
