Chapter 13: The Man in Black

Chapter 13: The Man in Black

At night, a bright ray of moonlight shone through the dark clouds in the courtyard of the Su family.

In the courtyard, Tang Lin sat on a stone bench, holding his cheeks with both hands, and stared blankly at the sky. Tang Lin's brain is very messy now, but the powerful spiritual root is crippled for no reason, originally he dreamed of cultivating to the strongest and protecting the Su family who are kind to him, but now the dream has been shattered before it has even begun.

"Lin'er!" Su Dingfang walked over and shouted at Tang Lin.

Seeing Su Dingfang coming, Tang Lin shouted lightly: "Father-in-law." ”

Seeing Tang Lin's depression, Su Dingfang put his hand on Tang Lin's shoulder and said, "I can't stand such a setback! What's wrong with no spiritual root, so many people in the world don't have spiritual roots, some people are willing to be mediocre, and some people are still kings and dukes. Zhang Zhenghong, the first assistant of the DPRK and the Central Committee, has no spiritual root but allows the people of the world to live and work in peace and contentment, and many of my generals also have no spiritual root, but they still lead troops to fight. Having a spiritual root and not having a spiritual root is a matter of cultivation, but having ambition and not having a poor ambition is indeed an achievement. ”

After listening to Su Dingfang's comfort, Tang Lin said: "Father-in-law, I understand, I won't give up on myself, but I still want to repair the spiritual root, I will search the world to find a way to restore the spiritual root, if it really can't be restored, then it is the will of heaven, and I am not forcing it." ”

"Hmm!" Su Dingfang stroked his beard and said: "It's good if you can see it, my father believes in you, remember that you are my Su Dingfang's son, if someone bullies you outside, even if it is at the end of the world, my father will go to protect you." Su Dingfang didn't particularly believe in Tang Lin in his heart that he could find a way to restore the spiritual root, there were many people with broken spiritual roots throughout the ages, but how many could really be repaired?

Tang Lin felt that the corners of his eyes were a little moist, he was not Su Dingfang's biological son, but he still regarded himself as a parent, wiped his eyes and said, "Father-in-law, I am not a child who does not grow up, how can I live a lifetime under your wings?"

"Haha. Su Dingfang smiled heartily twice and said: "Okay, it's for my father to be confused, and the eldest husband should have his own career." ”

"By the way, Gonggong Liu will give you a sword today, and tomorrow I will take you to choose a swordsmanship technique. The sword is adding a good swordsmanship technique, Lin Er, you will definitely be invincible in the future. Su Dingfang knew that Tang Lin loved cultivation, and since he didn't have a spiritual root, then he planned to give Tang Lin all the things that could improve his strength.

"Father-in-law, I feel that Father-in-law Liu doesn't look so simple, what kind of person is he?" Although Tang Lin had a good impression of Father-in-law Liu, he still asked what he thought in his heart.

Su Dingfang said: "Gonggong Liu is a powerful person, he is the most loyal person to the emperor. When the emperor was still in the East Palace, Gonggong Liu was serving the emperor, and the emperor once encountered assassins, and Gonggong Liu almost died to protect the emperor. When the emperor first ascended the throne, many ministers were not convinced, and it was also Gonggong Liu who helped the emperor clear these ministers, and the most trusted person of the emperor was Gonggong Liu, otherwise he would not have given the Zhiqiu Sword to Gonggong Liu. ”

"Oh, I didn't expect Grandpa Liu to look kind, but there are still so many secret things hidden in private!" Tang Lin suddenly realized.

"In this world, how many people are the same as they are on the outside? Lin'er, you remember, you must not trust others when you go out. Su Dingfang paused for a moment and continued: "You will still deal with Gonggong Liu in the future, but you can rest assured that Gonggong Liu will not harm you." ”

"Well, I will take what my father-in-law said to heart. Tang Lin said.

It was late at night, and most of the houses in Yuzhou City had already turned off the lights, Tang Lin sent Su Dingfang away, and continued to sit on the stone bench thinking about things.

Although, after Su Dingfang's enlightenment, Tang Lin's mood improved a lot, but after all, cultivation was his biggest dream, and he couldn't get rid of the blow of the broken spiritual root for a while.

Su Qianqian saw that her father was gone, and walked towards Tang Lin with a box of snacks.

"Brother. Su Qianqian's sweet voice reached Tang Lin's ears.

"Sister, why are you here. Looking at Su Qianqian who came over, Tang Lin was surprised and said, "You are also here to comfort me." ”

Unexpectedly, Su Qianqian shook her head and said, "I'm not here to comfort you, I know that my brother will be able to get out of the trough soon, and I don't need my comfort, I'm here to bring food to my brother." After speaking, Su Qianqian shook the snack box in her hand at Tang Lin. Su Qianqian knew Tang Lin very well and knew that instead of enlightening him, it was better to take some food to make him happier.

Sure enough, Tang Lin, who saw the food, suddenly felt a lot better, and said with a smile: "My sister still understands me." ”

Su Qianqian opened the dim sum box, took out a plate of delicate dim sum, and said: "My brother eats meat every day in Shishan, so he should rarely eat dim sum! ”

Tang Lin picked up a piece of snack and put it in his mouth to taste it slowly, smiled and said, "Not bad, good craftsmanship." After eating this snack, he felt that the haze in his heart was swept away.

"I made it for you, if you like it, just eat it. Su Qianqian said.

Looking at Su Qianqian's beautiful smile, Tang Lin was a little stupid, Su Qianqian was the first girl he met when he came out of the tomb, and it was also the girl Tang Lin thought was the best-looking.

Realizing Tang Lin, who had been staring at her, Su Qianqian's expression changed, and she said slyly, "Am I good-looking?"

Su Qianqian suddenly asked, Tang Lin was a little embarrassed, lowered his head and muttered in a low voice. After all, Tang Lin is still an eight-year-old child, and he is still very shy in the face of girls.

The cry of "woo" broke the atmosphere between Tang Lin and Su Qianqian, and Xiao Lihuo Purple Winged Lion ran over, although Xiao Lihuo Purple Winged Lion didn't know about Tang Lin's spiritual root, but after all, he had been with Tang Lin for more than a year, and he was still very sensitive to Tang Lin's low mood.

As soon as the little Lihuo Purple Winged Lion came over, he rubbed his head against Tang Lin's leg as if to comfort him, usually the Little Lion from the Fire Purple Winged Lion would not be so intimate with Tang Lin, although the two of them had a good relationship, they were fighting each other most of the time.

Tang Lin stretched out his hand and touched the head of the Xiao Lihuo Purple Winged Lion and said, "Xiao Zi, what's wrong today, can you change sex?"

"Xiao Zi is the one who understands your heart best, no, the lion who understands your heart the most. Su Qianqian, who was on the side, said jokingly: "It's a pity that Xiaozi is not a girl, otherwise it would be very suitable to be your brother's wife!"

"No kidding, even if he is really a girl, no one will marry him. Tang Lin said angrily.

However, this time, the Little Lihuo Purple Winged Lion did not refute Tang Lin, but pointed at Tang Lin and pointed at his back.

Looking at Xiao Lihuo's reaction to the Purple Winged Lion, Su Qianqian said, "It seems that Xiao Zi wants your brother to sit on it!"

"Oh, really? Tang Lin raised his eyebrows and said with interest.

The Little Lion nodded heavily in agreement, and the Little Lion felt that the best way for him to comfort Tang Lin was to take him to the heavens.

"Good!" Tang Lin said.

After Tang Lin sat down on top of him, the little Lihuo Purple Winged Lion waved its purple wings and slowly flew into the air.

Tang Lin, who was flying in the air for the first time, shouted out with a surprised "wow".

The huge courtyard of Sufu is getting smaller and smaller in his eyes, and the scattered houses in Yuzhou City are lined up, and the cool wind blowing on his face at night makes him feel brighter.

The little Purple Winged Lion flew faster and faster, tall trees, majestic buildings, all under them, and there were two or three pedestrians on the street, which also became the size of ants in their eyes.

"Wait, Purple. Suddenly, Tang Lin asked the little Purple Winged Lion to stop.

Late at night, the street was dark, but Tang Lin was now at level eight and his eyesight was excellent, so he could see the situation on the street clearly. A suspicious person in the distance caught his attention.

Looking at that person, Tang Lin's expression changed, there were not many people on the street, and they were basically in a hurry to go home, but that person was wearing a black night suit and a mask, and he didn't know what he was recording on a roof.

Tang Lin was suspicious in his heart and wanted to go and take a look, so he let the little Lihuo Purple Winged Lion slowly fall. Tang Lin, who fell to the ground, got down from the back of the Little Lion and gave a gesture to the Little Lion and signaled to him not to move.

Xiao Lihuo Purple Winged Lion understood that Tang Lin had something to do at this time, so he stood still very obediently.

Under the night sky, Tang Lin was afraid of startling the snake, so he didn't use Feiyun Step, and tiptoed close to the man in black, who was seriously recording things on the roof at this time, and didn't notice Tang Lin's approach at all.

Tang Lin climbed onto the roof and walked behind the man in black, he took a step forward and pressed his hand the shoulder of the man in black.

The man in black was recording things very seriously, and he didn't even notice Tang Lin approaching, when he suddenly had an extra hand on his shoulder, the man in black was startled, and a drop of cold sweat broke out.

"What are you doing?" Tang Lin asked coldly.

The man in black didn't reply to Tang Lin, he hurriedly took out a black ball-shaped object from his waist and smashed it the roof.

The black pill-shaped object collided violently with the roof, and suddenly with a "poof", the black pill cracked, and white smoke instantly came out of the black pill.

Tang Lin didn't expect the man in black to play this kind of trick, the smoke pierced his eyes, Tang Lin's eyes turned red, and tears flowed out uncontrollably.

Taking advantage of Tang Lin's own ***, the man in black waved Tang Lin's hand, turned over and jumped off the roof, and then fell on all fours at the same time, running towards the city gate without looking back.

Enduring the pain in his eyes, Tang Lin opened his eyes with difficulty, trying to see the things around him clearly. Seeing that the man in black had run twenty feet away, Tang Lin felt a chill in his heart, and he took a flying cloud step under his feet and ran over.

Seeing that the man in black was so frightened, Tang Lin was even more determined to catch the man in black, and he vaguely felt that what the man in black did might endanger Yuzhou City.
