Chapter 3 – The First Killing
Ling Yun slowly tasted the wine in the glass, and after shaking it, the wine became clearer and clearer. In the distance, a quarrelsome man happened to be dangling in a wine glass.
Drink the wine in the cup and drink it all, and the time is almost up. No matter how late it is, I really won't be able to go home.
Although the Orions had quarreled with the two men hiding in the corner while drinking, on the whole, the drink was quite enjoyable.
At the door of the hotel, several people hugged their fists and said goodbye.
"Brothers, we haven't had a good time today, let's drink it another day. The man who was called Brother Feng said with his fists clenched.
"Okay, drink it another day, or my family won't be able to wait. ”
"Hahahaha"
Although these hunters came out, their faces were already red, and they couldn't even stand on their feet, but they still clasped their big hands tightly.
"Come back tomorrow, brother, I can drink again. "The man who paid the bill walked at the end, walking swaying like a fool.
Orion is always an Orion, and from any point of view, the sensitivity to the crisis is too low.
Ling Yun put down his wine glass and glanced at the departing man. Instead of opening the package in the hall, these people left the special package that might contain the spirit stone for one person to keep.
Although entrusting the package to one person reduces the number of people who also find people fighting, it will ambush a larger crisis, what if that person is attacked and killed.
Walking out of the restaurant, I looked at the sky, the moon was dark and the wind was high, and it was silent.
Ling Yun quietly followed behind the person holding the package, no matter what, he must get the spirit stones, whether it was for future transactions or to be able to cultivate better, opening the cyclone required a large number of spirit stones.
It's a pity that this group of hunters doesn't understand the meaning of wealth not being exposed, Ling Yun followed behind him quietly, and the hunters still walked leisurely.
Looking around left and right, there was no one around, but Ling Yun was not ready to make a move.
If there are only a few spirit stones after the shot, it will end up with a worse reputation, and it will be too much of a loss. Ling Yun now had an inexplicable feeling that if he continued to follow him, he might be able to find the inheritance.
The Orion was indeed heading out of the village, and by this time the night was deep, and something must have happened.
As we walked farther and farther away, a stream that flowed quietly made a gurgling sound, and it turned out that the hunter was spreading wild here.
Ling Yun made a decisive move, taking three steps and making two steps, gathering all his strength into one palm, jumping up and slashing fiercely on the shoulder of this Orion.
The night is getting darker, and the spring moon is like a bow.
Floating clouds obscured the moonlight, as if covering the crescent moon with a faint veil.
Suddenly, Ling Yun saw a screen in front of him, and looked up along the mountain stream, there was a huge stone slit, although it was closed, but Ling Yun could clearly feel the sound of whistling inside.
"Is this here?" he gasped, his heart pounding, and when he stopped, he felt sweat all over his body, and a hot breath flowed through his body with the acceleration of his blood.
Looking around, I saw that it was a shallow river beach.
Large and small pebbles are all over the ground, and the river is only about a finger above the pebbles. There are also pieces of gray-white boulders, scattered here at random.
Orion lay cold on the ground, not moving, and Ling Yun made some disguises, making it appear that he was obviously drunk and unconscious. There was no need for Ling Yun to kill him, now he just needed to take the cloth bag, then enter the cave, and take the inheritance.
Flip open the Orion's cloth bag and take the remaining two spirit stones inside.
Cracks grow in the middle of the cliff face. A slender miniature waterfall, branching out from the waterfall, fell down like a silver-white ribbon against the mountain wall, hitting the boulder, and the center of the boulder was washed out of a crack over time.
At this time, the waterfall washes down, and the water roars slightly. It was like a white roller blind, completely blocking the gap in the boulder.
It turns out that the spirit stone was blown away by the wind and then rolled down this waterfall?
By observing and looking at him, his breath had gradually stabilized. With a determined glint in his eyes, he walked to the boulder, took a deep breath, and rushed in.
The gap in the boulder was quite large, and it was no problem for two sturdy adults to walk through, no problem. What's more, Ling Yun was just a fifteen-year-old boy.
As soon as he rushed in, the rapid flow of water pressed Ling Yun's body down, and at the same time, the cold water drenched Ling Yun's body all over his body at once
Penetrate.
Ling Yun carried the water pressure and walked forward quickly, walking dozens of steps, and the water pressure gradually decreased.
But the gap between the gaps also narrowed, and he had to walk sideways.
There was the roar of water in my ears, a white light overhead, and a darkness deeper into the boulder.
Lingyun was completely engulfed in darkness, and the cracks in the stone became narrower and narrower, and gradually, his head could not turn freely.
What is hidden in the darkness?
Maybe it's a trial that can easily take his life, or maybe it's nothing.
Just as he was about to enter the cave, there was a dark sound behind him.
"You move forward and try it?" a murderous voice suddenly sounded behind Ling Yun.
In this deep and long passage, the sudden sound can't help but make people sweat coldly.
He was actually followed, how could it be, he had obviously cleared the back.
Could it be that someone who is far more capable than himself did it?
Could it be that my uncle hired someone to do it? Where did he get the money to hire a master?
In an instant, the names of several people kept circling in Ling Yun's mind, but according to the situation, shouldn't these masters have not grown yet?
Countless thoughts and conjectures swirled in his mind, and he quickly thought of a solution.
If someone who is far better than himself doesn't do it, it means that I still have value, and there is still something to use, although the hidden murderous intent in that sentence is too deep, but everything still has room to maneuver.
This made him keep roaring in his heart, the difference in strength was too great, and the other party was still behind him, and he could kill him at any time. He was just an ordinary person, and he listened to that person's voice full of anger, at least in the early stages of spiritual life.
"Boy, I didn't expect you to be so careless, hum. The voice behind him sounded again.
Ling Yun gritted his teeth, his expression was cold, he didn't expect it to overturn this time.
"You want spirit stones, right, I'll give it to you. ”
Ling Yun slowly squatted down, threw the spirit stone cloth bag in his hand back, and scratched a few marks on the ground.
"Heh, in your eyes, what do you think? This little spirit stone can impress me and let you live?"
The voice was a little playful, and a little cruel.
"Bend down, 1, 2, 3."
Ling Yun counted silently in his heart, calculating every word and deed of that voice.
"It's now!"
In an instant, he suddenly picked up a stone from the ground and threw it backwards.
"You ......."
The shadow dodged the flying stones, but before he could react.
Ling Yun followed closely, and while the black shadow was stunned, he punched the black shadow in the face with all his strength.
The black shadow was knocked to the ground with a punch, Ling Yun didn't give him a chance to breathe at all, he understood very well that this was a life-and-death struggle.
The shadow was knocked to the ground, his head a little clouded, and he couldn't figure out why the situation had turned out to be like this.
Ling Yun rode on the black shadow, holding up a stone the size of a basin and smashing it on the black shadow's face again and again.
Blood splattered on Ling Yun's face, splashing all over him.
Ling Yun smashed down again and again, like a machine, even if the black shadow under him lost its vitality, it was still doing the same operation repeatedly.
"Hoo ......"
Ling Yun lay back exhaustedly, and now he only felt that the muscles in his body were trembling, and he didn't know whether he was excited or scared.
Glancing at the long sword in the corner, maybe this black shadow would have died here if he had done it earlier.
He stood up, put away his spirit stone, and dragged the black shadow to a place with a little light, only to see that the black shadow was blurred with flesh and blood, and he couldn't identify who it was at all, but he could see through the skin of the night robe that it was an old man.
"If you had been ruthless, I would be the one lying on the ground now. ”
The first time I killed someone, I felt a sense of relief in addition to comfort. The pressure has been on the top of the head since entering the hole, for fear that danger is imminent. At this moment, the danger is removed, and a spontaneous sense of pleasure makes my heart feel refreshed.
After the killing, there was no physical discomfort, even when looking at the mosaic-like scene under him.
After killing someone, the next thing to think about is how to clean up the body, if it is thrown directly into the stream below, it will inevitably be discovered by people, and it is best to burn it.
Thinking so, Ling Yun threw the fire fold onto the corpse.
"This person is wearing a night suit, and the trip must have been arranged, and it will not leak, so burn it and pour it into the stream, naturally no one will find out. ”
The spirit stones of the black shadow and the spirit stones that he had originally scavenged from the hunter added up to only five pieces. What can you do with this spirit stone, you still have to wait for the arrival of the caravan.
This inheritance can't be explored, and if there is any unmanageable crisis in it, maybe it will fall inside, or wait for the caravan to arrive, and then borrow the person in it to explore the way, so that it can be taken care of, or wait for the next opportunity to explore.
The night breeze blew slowly, as if what had just happened was just a phantom.
At the edge of the stream, the hunter had long since disappeared, leaving only the murmuring of the stream, and the hunter should have woken up and left here.
Lingyun was in this moonlight, returning to the inn.
The door to the inn is closed.
He banged on the door.
"Got it! I heard it, who came knocking on the door so late......" The innkeeper muttered open the door, sleepy-eyed.
But when he saw Fang Yuan at the door, he was slightly dissatisfied, "It's Childe, come in." ”
Ling Yun nodded, his face was indifferent, and he walked into the inn.
This expression made the guy smile humbly, and he took the initiative to ask: "Is the son hungry, do you want to inform the cook and make a few side dishes for you as a supper?"
"No need. Ling Yun shook his head and only advised, "You prepare some hot water for me, I want to wash." ”
"Yes!" the guy nodded hurriedly, "Childe will go back to the room first, and the little one will go and prepare it immediately, and the hot water will be delivered immediately." Ling Yun snorted and stepped up the stairs to the second floor.
Somehow, the guy felt as if this man's spirit had risen a level.
