Chapter 4: The Mysterious Ring
Ling Yu locked himself in the room, staring intently at the ring on his finger, even for dinner, he just picked up a few bites casually and returned.
But his eyes hurt at the sight, and he still didn't notice anything unusual about the ring.
"Tuk, tuk, tuk. ”
Ling Yu was awakened by the knock on the door, and paused before saying, "Please come in." ”
The person who came was Ling Yue'er, she was holding a square plate in her hand, with some food on the plate and some bruise medicine.
Ling Yu's heart warmed, on that beautiful blue planet, he had never been treated like this, and said with a smile: "Yue'er, you haven't slept yet?"
Ling Yue'er also laughed, her beautiful eyes bent into a crescent shape, put the square plate on the table, and said, "I saw that you didn't have a good dinner, so I brought you some food, I made it myself." ”
Ling Yu didn't expect her to be able to cook, so he immediately became interested, but he sat down at the table and looked at the dishes on the plate, but he couldn't help but wet his eyes.
Ling Yue'er hadn't noticed his change yet, and said proudly: "Brother Ling Yu, you didn't expect me to be able to cook, didn't you? I didn't expect your martial arts to be so good, that stinky boy, he was defeated by you without even using his housekeeping skills." ”
She waited for a while, but didn't see Ling Yu answer, then she turned her head to look at him, and saw him crying at the side dishes on the plate, she couldn't help but be startled, this young man, but when he was on the run, he was a tough person who never cried.
"Brother Ling Yu, what's wrong with you?" Ling Yue'er hurriedly took out her handkerchief and said while wiping his tears for him, "A few days ago, when you were in a coma, you would talk about what tomato scrambled eggs would be talked about from time to time, so I took this opportunity to make one for you, am I not good enough?"
"No, it's not. ”
Ling Yu realized that he was out of shape, and as he spoke, he devoured it, but his tears were like a flood bursting the embankment, and he couldn't stop it.
Because on that blue planet, this dish is his favorite, because the two women who used to cook this dish for him are more important to him than his own lives.
He ate all his meals in one go, and the feeling of fullness in his stomach gradually calmed him down.
Then, he put down his chopsticks, let out a long breath, stared at Ling Yue'er and said, "Thank you, Yue'er." ”
Ling Yue'er was also relieved to see that he had finally returned to normal, and said, "Brother Ling Yu, what happened to you just now? ”
Ling Yu didn't want to lie, but she didn't want to tell her about her previous life now, so she had to say, "Yue'er, this is my little secret, I'll tell you later, okay?"
Hearing him say that it was a secret, Ling Yue'er became even more curious, but remembering what he had just done, she didn't dare to continue asking, so she had to agree.
The bright moonlight spilled into the room from the window, Ling Yue'er pulled Ling Yu out of the room, with a strange look in her eyes, and said, "Brother Ling Yu, look, the moonlight tonight is so beautiful!"
Ling Yu looked at the beauty under the moon, only to feel a stirring in his heart, and almost couldn't help but reach out to touch the cheek that could be broken, but in the end he endured it and smiled: "Yue'er is beautiful, Yue'er is even more beautiful!"
Ling Yue'er's face turned red, and she turned around with a "huh".
"Yue'er, it's not too early, I'll send you back to rest. Ling Yu forcibly resisted his impulse and said.
Ling Yue'er suddenly turned around again, frowned slightly, and said, "However, Yue'er hasn't rubbed the medicine for Brother Ling Yu yet. ”
Ling Yu smiled: "It's okay, I'm not a child, I can do it myself." ”
When Ling Yue'er heard him say this, she had no choice but to nod, and then said lazily "Okay."
Ling Yu sent Ling Yue'er back, and put all his energy on the ring.
The ring was all black, and even under the light, there was no reflection of light, and I don't know what material it was made of.
After looking at it for a while, he still didn't find anything, so he had to give up for the time being and began to rub the medicine honestly.
After a while, he suddenly felt that someone had been patted on the back, and he didn't look back at the moment, so he said, "Yue'er, don't make trouble, I'm busy." ”
Yue'er ignored him and slapped a few more times.
At this time, Ling Yu had finished rubbing the medicine, and turned his head with a smile, but when he saw the "person" behind him, his smiling face suddenly turned into a crying face, and the whole person was stunned.
That "person" could no longer be regarded as a person, he was suspended in mid-air, although he was wearing a moon-white robe, Ling Yu could directly see what was behind him.
The "man" lifted his long hair that was scattered, revealing a distorted face, and his scarlet tongue hung directly down to his chin, so frightened that Ling Yu stepped back, fell on the bed, crossed his hands in front of his chest, and said, "You... Are you a human or a ghost?"
The "man" deceived him, put his face in front of his eyes, and said, "Do you think I am a human or a ghost?"
Although he spoke, Ling Yu didn't see him open his mouth.
Ling Yu shouted, and his right hand immediately fanned over, regardless of whether he was a human or a ghost, if he was scattered, there would be nothing to fear.
The "man" grabbed his wrist and said lightly: "I don't even pay attention to the strong Douzun, you kid is only a five-stage fighting spirit, and you dare to get an axe?"
Ling Yu suddenly felt as if there was an iron hoop on his wrist, and the iron hoop was still shrinking, causing cold sweat to ooze from his forehead, but he gritted his teeth and never said a word.
The "person" looked at Ling Yu's slightly immature, but extremely firm face, his distorted expression gradually returned to normal, and his palm gradually loosened.
"Boy, you're good. A smile flashed in the man's eyes, "If you had just submitted to me, I would have taken your life." ”
For this person's strength, Ling Yu was still extremely jealous, and pursed his lips at the moment, not knowing how to answer.
The "man" raised his right hand and made a gesture to Ling Yu, Ling Yu also said that he was going to continue to torture himself, when he took two steps back, and then he was surprised to see that the ring that he had been unable to take off actually slid down on its own, and then floated towards the "man".
Ling Yu pondered slightly, then understood, and said, "It turns out that this ring is a predecessor's thing. ”
The "man" snorted coldly and said, "Count you as a kid." ”
Ling Yu clasped his fists and said: "If it weren't for this ring today, the kid would only be afraid that he would suffer even more humiliation, and the boy would like to thank him here." ”
The "man" looked up at Ling Yu with some loneliness in his eyes, and said, "I was coercing you just now, but now you come to thank me, you kid can be regarded as having a clear grievance." ”
He didn't wait for Ling Yu to speak, and then said, "Are you interested in learning Qi from me?"
Ling Yu's face was immediately filled with joy, this guy's strength can be called terrifying, if he can get his advice, then rescuing his father will be just around the corner, but he did not let this joy get carried away, and then said: "The kid and the senior, it's just the first time to meet, it's a great favor to have you come to the rescue, as for this guidance, I really don't dare to take it, but if the predecessor proposes some quid pro quo, then it's another matter, as long as the kid can do it, the senior just said it's okay." ”
The "man" bowed slightly, with a look of approval in his eyes, and said with a smile: "What if I want that little girl just now?"
Ling Yu frowned and said, "What do you mean by what senior?"
The "man" said: "As long as you hand over the girl just now to me, I will teach you to practice qi and help you save your father, how about it?"
Ling Yu groaned slightly, and bowed down.
The "man" said lightly: "You agreed?"
Ling Yu straightened up, straight as a javelin, and said, "No, Yue'er is also my family, and she is as important as my father, I will never use her as a bargaining chip." ”
The "man's" eyes became fierce, and he said word for word: "Don't you want to save your father? That girl is just an adopted daughter." ”
Ling Yu pondered for a moment, his eyes also turned cold, and said: "This is not bothered by the seniors, the kid has the confidence to save his father, even if he waits for ten or eight more years, he will not hesitate." ”
The two looked at each other, and the air around them froze, almost freezing cold.
After a while, the "man" actually laughed out loud and said, "Unexpectedly, your kid not only has clear grievances, but also attaches great importance to love and righteousness. ”
Ling Yu's expression immediately became stunned.
The "man" patted him on the shoulder and said, "I was just testing you just now." ”
Ling Yu greeted his whole family in his heart, but his face pretended to be indifferent, and said, "What is the real condition of the senior?"
The "man" took a deep breath, there was a touch of sadness in his eyes, and then he gritted his teeth and said: "The reason why I have fallen to such a state is all due to a disciple, and my request is..."
He suddenly raised his head and stared at Ling Yu, and then said, "I want you to kill him and clear the portal for me!"
Ling Yu thought about it for a moment and felt that there was nothing wrong with it, so he agreed.
The "man" stretched out his palm, and motioned for Ling Yu to stretch out a hand as well, and then the two of them struck each other three times, which could be regarded as a high-five.
