(Reminded by a book friend, there was a bug in a chapter yesterday, Bailongting is dead, replaced by Mo Tianhe, I'm really sorry, I will be more careful in the future~)

——

The smoke and rain are hazy, and the apricot blossoms are as white as snow.

On the ancient and quiet streets, Lin Xun paced leisurely.

A low exclamation sounded, and I saw a message tree in front of me, and a group of people were surrounding it, talking about it.

Lin Xun stepped forward, took a brief look, and understood.

"Bai Yujing...... You're a stranger from outside the country, but you're going to choose a place. ”

Lin Xun shook his head and ignored it.

He didn't mean to underestimate Lang Qianheng, but thought that the duel location chosen by the other party seemed a little shameless.

However, this also proves from the side that the other party should not have an absolute certainty of victory.

Otherwise, how can you spend time on the location of the battle?

What really made Lin Xun curious was that for the Ancient Wasteland, what Lang Qianheng represented was the camp of the enemy outside the territory.

The Tongtian Sword Sect can tolerate Lang Qianheng to make an appointment to fight himself in Bai Yujing, but can it tolerate himself to go to the appointment to fight?

Lin Xun really wanted to give it a try.

Not now, though.

It's just a battle, and for Lin Xun, it's not a big deal.

Aggressive~~

A dense banging sound rang out from a low, old shop on the side of the street.

Lin Xun glanced at it inadvertently, and saw a plaque hanging on the store-

Point Stone Pavilion.

Inside the shop, an ordinary-looking man, dressed in a coarse cloth robe and holding a carving knife, was carving a stone in his hand.

A palm-sized stone was soon carved into the prototype of a human figure.

Lin Xun unconsciously stepped forward, took a look, and saw that there were stone statues of all kinds of sizes in the store.

There are people and ghosts, ghosts, ghosts, birds, animals, plants, trees, insects and fish, all of which are lifelike and vivid.

What surprised Lin Xun was that there were many of those stone statues that he hadn't even recognized, but they looked like they should obviously be creatures and food that existed in the world.

For example, a fish swimming in the clouds and mist, when the tail is swaying, it is like wings flying, and the meal is full of dew.

"Guests wait. ”

In the shop, the man in cloth raised his head and smiled, his expression was gentle, and then he lowered his head and focused on the seal carving.

Stone chips are flying, and in his long, thick palm, a carving knife rotates flexibly, the blade is not very mysterious, but it gives people a flowing and imaginative charm.

Lin Xun watched it with relish, and he was not in a hurry to leave.

A moment later, a stone statue of a young boy riding a bull appeared from under the carved knife of a man in cloth.

The seemingly simple chiseled image actually gave Lin Xun a kind of "alive" charm, as if the next moment, the immature child would ride the green ox and go away from the dust, full of spirituality.

Lin Xun was surprised: "Interesting. ”

The man in cloth smiled and put down the carving knife in his hand and said, "It's just a gadget." ”

Lin Xun thought for a while and said, "Can you let me give it a try?"

The cloth-clothed man smiled, handed over the carving knife in his hand, and said, "Even if you try, these stones are not worth much." ”

Lin Xun took the carving knife, picked a stone at random, and began to do it after a little groaning.

Aggressive!

The sound of dense seal carving sounded, stone chips fluttered, and soon, the image of a young girl gradually emerged.

The girl has a slender body, the brim of her hat covers her face, and she holds a spear in her hand.

It's the summer solstice!

If Lin Xun was just interested in it at first and wanted to try it, but when he was immersed in carving, he unconsciously poured his inner emotions into it.

Before the arrival of the Peak Domain, Xia Solstice left, and now more than ten years have passed, in ordinary times, even if Lin Xun thinks of Xia Solstice, he will suppress this emotion in his heart.

But at this moment, it naturally springs up in my heart.

Only then did Lin Xun know that he really missed the summer solstice.

"Lin Xun, you can't die until I come back. ”

Many years ago, when the summer solstice was taken away by the Queen of the Night, she said this to herself with a calm expression.

"I've forgotten everything else except for you. ”

That year, Xia Zhi woke up from the silence of "Nine Turns of Silence" and forgot everything, except for Lin Xun.

"There are good things in the future, and you can't enjoy them alone. ”

"In any case, if you want to marry a wife in the future, you must first pass my pass. ”

"Because I want to accommodate a second person in my world besides you...... It's going to be hard. ”

......

Until the last time he left, Xia Zhi only said four words: "Wait for me to come back." ”

Her clothes fluttered, and she carried a spear of white bones in her hand, and with one step, a path like a condensed darkness emerged from the void, leading to the heavenly dome.

Without looking back, without hesitation, he stepped into a dark portal in the depths of the heavenly vault.

Click!

Suddenly, the stone statue in his hand cracked and shattered into several pieces.

Lin Xun woke up in shock, his expression changed, and he took a deep breath before he half a sound, and gradually calmed down the emotions in his heart.

Next to him, the man in cloth smiled gently, picked up a stone, and handed it to Lin Xun: "Try again." ”

Lin Xun snorted.

This time, he sat on the futon, his expression focused, and he was silent for a long time before he began to carve the seal again.

Gravers are commonplace.

Stone is also commonplace.

But Lin Xun already knew that it was unusual to want to carve a satisfactory stone statue!

The man in cloth sat on one side, took out a yellowed scroll, and flipped through it casually, his expression was calm and serene, and he occasionally looked at Lin Xun.

Outside the shop, the sky is gray and dark, and the old streets and alleys are quiet and empty.

In the shop, an oil lamp is swaying, and the lifelike, vivid stone statues, bathed in the dappled light, are like solemn gods, standing in the years, seeing all living beings.

Click!

Not long after, the stone that was about to take shape cracked again, turning into a pile of stone chips in the palm of the hand.

Lin Xun was stunned, and his expression was cloudy and sunny.

"Come again. ”

A stone was handed over, and the man in cloth looked gentle.

Lin Xun took it in his hand and said, "Thank you." ”

He sat alone for a long time before he began.

It's just that compared with the previous two times, his strength and speed when carving the seal have slowed down a lot, and his eyebrows are full of concentration and seriousness.

Click!

After a stick of incense, the stone statue cracked again.

This time, Lin Xun picked up a stone again and threw himself into the seal carving again.

It was also from this time that his movements became slower and slower, and a carving knife as light as a feather seemed to have a weight in his hand.

It was raining outside the window, and the sky was getting darker.

The man in cloth got up, held up an oil-paper umbrella, and went to the street to buy half a catty of newly brewed apricot blossom wine, and when he returned to the store, he saw Lin Xun focusing on seal carving, and he couldn't help but smile.

Without disturbing, the man in cloth sat in the chair, took out two wooden wine glasses, poured two glasses of clear and fragrant plum wine, and left one cup for Lin Xun, picking up one cup and sipping it carefully.

Then, he opened the yellowed scroll, and one line of words came into view: "The heart is not hindered, and you can walk, sit and lie down freely." ”

The man in the cloth smiled and took a glass of wine.

Until late at night, when the night outside the window was soaked, the man in cloth got up, closed the door and window of the store, glanced at Lin Xun, and still didn't say anything.

In the days that followed, this scene continued.

The man in cloth opens the door early in the morning, closes late at night, reads and drinks in his spare time, and greets the guests who enter the store when he is busy, enjoying himself.

Lin Xun was completely forgetful and kept carving.

Around him, stone chips gradually piled up on the ground.

......

Outside, the wind is surging.

"Did the Lin Demon God agree to fight for the covenant?"

This is the focus of countless people's attention.

And today's Bai Yujing is a place where the wind and clouds gather, attracting a lot of attention.

Because the significance of this battle is so unusual!

One side is a peerless figure from outside the region, powerful and incomparable, since he began to walk in the Ancient Wasteland, he has pushed his opponent all the way, and has not tasted defeat, making the powerhouses of the Ancient Wasteland a little unable to raise their heads.

On one side is Lin Xun, who has already been famous all over the world, a legend-like existence, like a leader on the way to the pinnacle of the road.

Who can not pay attention to such a war?

If Lin Xun is defeated, it will deal an incomparably heavy blow to the Ancient Wasteland and affect morale.

On the contrary, if Lin Xun wins, he can give confidence to the cultivators of the world.

It's just that the Tongtian Sword Sect is quite anxious.

Because the location of the battle was on their territory, if possible, they naturally wanted to take this opportunity to kill Lin Xun.

However, now that this battle has attracted the attention of the world, if they dare to do so, they will definitely risk the condemnation of the world and become the target of public criticism.

After all, if Lin Xun fights, he will fight on behalf of the Ancient Wasteland!

At such a time, if he Tongtian Sword Sect can tolerate foreign enemies to challenge on his own territory, but he can't tolerate Lin Xun's battle, he will definitely be pointed at by thousands of people, and his reputation will be ruined.

Therefore, just recently, the Tongtian Sword Sect spoke out and announced to the world that it would never interfere in sabotaging this battle.

As soon as the news came out, the world was excited, and they all praised the Tongtian Sword Sect for understanding the righteousness.

But the Heavenly Sword Sect was not happy at all!

No one knew how much they wanted to kill Lin Xun and vent their hatred, but there was no way, in the current situation, they could only pinch their noses and admit it.

In this regard, the Shenji Pavilion also spoke highly of it, saying that the Tongtian Sword Sect was worthy of being a great sect in the Ancient Wasteland, and it had its own responsibility, which was the blessing of all beings in the world.

Under such high praise, the Tongtian Sword Sect completely died to deal with Lin Xun's heart, and even began to worry that Lin Xun must not have an accident in Bai Yujing.

Otherwise, this basin will definitely have to be buckled on the head of their Heavenly Sword Sect!

That's the trend.

In the face of the general trend of the world, even the Tongtian Sword Sect had to bow its head.

Because compared to those extraterritorial enemies, even if Lin Xun is no longer liked, he is still "his own person" after all.

The outside world was boiling, and Lin Xun was unaware of all this.

Half a month later, late at night.

After closing, the man in cloth had just opened the scroll and was about to read it, when the movements in his hands suddenly stopped, and his eyes also moved to look at Lin Xun.

In his palm, a lifelike stone statue was gradually taking shape.

Duh!

When the last knife was carved and the last bit of burden of the stone statue was cut off, the stone statue seemed to have an indescribable spirituality for a moment, as if it was about to come back to life.
