Volume 1: On Mount Tianheng Chapter 14: The Difficulty of Choice

After the competition, Mo Lin locked himself in the room and closed the door, he had been locked up like this for four hours, Lu Chen brought him food, and he didn't move at all.

When he lost the game, he didn't blame himself, and when he borrowed Lu Chen's true qi during the game, he didn't blame himself.

He was only in pain for not killing Motu, and he saw the gap.

Motu's peacock fan purple fan has not been used, but he has already exhausted his hole cards.

Even so, he lost to Motu. He was in a very complicated mood at this time, he did not fulfill his long-cherished wish in the game, and violated the rules of the game, so he was afraid that he would be expelled from the division.

There are three major rules of Tianheng Mountain that are unbreakable, and if you violate the three rules of Tianheng Mountain, you will definitely be expelled from the division.

First, do not kill, set fire, and plunder women and children, second, do not betray the master and take the initiative to join the enemy, and third, do not engage in favoritism and fraud.

It is inevitable that he will be expelled from the division if he violates the precepts, and after he is expelled from the division, the end will be tragic.

If he goes down the mountain, he will not be avenged, then what is the meaning of his life?

Maureen is mired in great self-doubt and pain, not only because he failed to kill Motu, but also because of the confusion about the meaning of his existence.

"Crunch~"

The door was gently pushed open, and Maureen knelt on the floor, facing the wall, from which the cold light cast by the open door could be seen.

"Hiccup!" a wine burp popped out of the comer's throat, and Merlin slowly turned back to see the comer who opened the door.

It was Lu Cheng who had previously stopped him and Motu in the game.

"Don't look at me like that, I just hiccuped. ”

Lao Lu slowly closed the door, lit two oil lamps, and the whole room lit up in the dim light.

"Had a good meal in the evening, drank a little wine, and hiccuped, which was understandable. ”

Lao Lu sat down casually on the ground, staring at the pale Mo Lin.

"You have a good look, a very desperate look, when I was in the open sea before, I forgot where it was, there was a cannibal tribe, those who were captured by them, the eyes were similar to yours, very desperate. ”

"You shouldn't have saved me in the afternoon. ”

Mo Lin thought for a moment, he knew that this little uncle had a lot of ability, so he used you to call him.

"Hey, I just can't see your softness. ”

Lu Cheng crossed his legs and said to Mo Lin:

"You kid, if you really want to kill Motu, you can use more insidious methods, quenching poison, mist, hidden weapons, which is not better than borrowing true qi. ”

"But you didn't do that, and even the knife you stabbed at Motu's boy wasn't poisonous. ”

"I don't know if you're stupid or what, you want to kill him, and you don't want to kill him, aren't you asking for your own suffering?"

Provoked by Lao Lu's words, in Mo Lin's mind, that painful memory was repeated again, the death of his cousin and cousin, and the death of his cousin and cousin, all haunted him like a nightmare. His expression went from convulsive to hideous, and the despair in his eyes began to turn into unspeakable pain.

"I ......"

Before Mo Lin could speak, as soon as he stood up, Lao Lu slapped him directly and slapped Mo Lin directly to the ground.

"What are you yelling at me? ang? You want to kill Motu, but he's not dead, so you're going to lock yourself up in this room until you die, right?"

Now it's Lao Tzu who is pretending to be here? Now Lao Tzu said, you listen, if you don't want to listen, you have to put up with Lao Tzu. ”

Mo Lin's face was swollen by Lao Lu's slap, and even Lao Lu was poured into a violent true qi, which flowed wildly in Mo Lin's body.

"You, Mo Lin, have been expelled from the school because of favoritism and fraud, my master and brother are kind-hearted, and I am willing to give you a sum of money, and in the future, I will go down the mountain to do a small business, marry a daughter-in-law, and live a life together. ”

"That's the way they arranged for you, it has nothing to do with me, since I'm here today, I'll give you another choice. ”

As he spoke, Lao Lu threw a dagger at Mo Lin, and the dagger landed directly through the wooden floor and fell into a blade.

"You can choose to commit suicide, I think it's very difficult to survive with your nature. ”

Merlin got up, picked up the dagger, and slashed it into his hand with the dagger, which was very sharp.

"Of course, I can still give you a third choice, which may be more painful than death, but if you can endure the past, I can assure you that it is not only Mo Tu who will be retaliated against by you, but also Mo Tianxing, and the entire Mo family. ”

Hearing Lu Cheng's words, Mo Lin was stunned, and his intuition made him listen to Lu Cheng, because there was some kind of wonderful magic in what the drunken and unkempt man in front of him said.

"Don't you want to take revenge on Mo Tu? But it was actually the dark system of the Mo family that really killed the fourteen descendants of the Mo family and swept you out of the house, don't you want to take revenge on Mo Tianxing and the entire Mo family?"

"Murder and punishment, murder and punishment, boy, what can you change by killing a Mo Tu? If you want to kill, kill all those self-righteous Mo family leaders, kill Mo Tianxing, destroy the damned physique they have been operating for decades, and then create a new Mo family. ”

"Isn't that wonderful, if you think about it?"

Mo Lin's eyes widened, and he was thinking about how to kill Mo Tu, but he didn't go as far as Lao Lu thought.

He thought that by killing Motu, he would be able to dissipate his anger and have a sense of revenge, but at this time, his mind changed slightly.

Lu Cheng's words made him grab a vine at the bottom of the dark well, although this vine was full of thorns, but by following the vine, he could climb up and see the sky.

"That'...... What are the conditions?"

"Three conditions, first, you need to become my disciple, with my identity as a Qincha in the Western Regions, it is still very simple to protect you. ”

Mo Lin, a young man who can create a trap bird, not to mention whether the Mo family will forcibly bring him back, some other forces will definitely be eyeing him, this is both a sweet potato and a hot potato, he Lu Cheng is not afraid of anyone.

It doesn't matter what kind of Mojia Momen or something, if you dare to move Lao Tzu, then be ready to lose your head.

"I am already an outcast of Tianheng Mountain, and it is a blessing to have a place to stay, I can agree. ”

"The first is a benefit for you, and the second is that you have to figure it out, I am likely to travel to all kinds of dangerous places in the future, and I need you to be by my side every step of the way to help me. ”

After Lao Lu finished speaking, he slowly stood up and unbuttoned the robe, and when Mo Lin saw Lu Cheng's physical condition, his pupils shrank suddenly.

On Lu Cheng's body, there were several huge scars, one of which extended directly from his shoulder blades to his abdomen. This scar is definitely not an ordinary scar, it is a bit like a wound that has been torn open by a blunt object.

"I can tell you that the kind of dangerous place I'm going to is the one that will kill you if you're not careful, and I need your absolute loyalty and bravery, and if you retreat or fear somewhere, I'll kill you before you deal with trouble. ”

Lu Cheng's tone was very firm, and this tone was completely different from the previous drunken appearance, it seemed like some kind of threat or warning.

"Of course, when your strength is insufficient, I won't let you die in vain, I can also guide you in your cultivation, and I can let you quickly reach the Condensing Realm. ”

Lu Cheng got dressed and sat on the ground again, Mo Lin looked at the ground, as if he was pondering something, and the sallow light illuminated the beads of sweat on his forehead.

"Third, if, I mean if, if you can replace Mo Tianxing in the future and take charge of the Mo family, I need your full and unconditional support, even if it is ......"

Lu Cheng didn't say any more, even when he said it, Mo Lin already understood what the latter words meant.

Not to mention that Lu Cheng didn't say it explicitly, even if he Mo Lin thought of the latter sentence, he felt as if his heartbeat had stopped suddenly.

"Of course, I will not violate the morality of heaven and earth, nor will I violate faithfulness, let alone let you be a substitute for the ghost, if you are in charge of the Mo family in the future, I can sign a soul agreement with you, of course, I will let you know that I have this ability. ”

Lu Cheng lightly tapped on Mo Lin's forehead, Mo Lin's spirit suddenly fell into a trance, and the next moment, he hurriedly retreated to the corner of the wall as if he had seen a ghost, looking at Lu Cheng with frightened eyes.

"You can not give me an answer now, if you want to be a deserter, a coward, I will still give you a chance. ”

Lu Cheng had already gotten up, picked up the dagger that Mo Lin had fallen to the ground just now, and put it flat on the floor again.

"If you choose to follow me, before the competition tomorrow, clean up your messy hair, come to the kitchen backyard to kowtow to the teacher, and you will be my apprentice in the future, and no one will dare to touch you. ”

After speaking, Lu Cheng pushed open the door and walked out, after he left, after nearly a stick of incense, Mo Lin recovered from his state of fear, he was so soft that he was on the ground, panting heavily.

Although the matter is clear, Morin really needs to think about it.

may be more painful to worship Lu Cheng as a teacher than to be a wreck and commit suicide.

But if he really ran away like that, or if he really just died......

Mo Lin's heart fell into a huge contradiction, due to Lu Cheng's methods just now, coupled with huge psychological pressure, Mo Lin's body curled up, and there was a faint sob.

Lu Cheng had just walked out of Mo Lin's dormitory, and when he just walked on the stone road, he saw Zhang Laosi coming towards him. Lu Cheng greeted Zhang Laosi easily, but Zhang Laosi's expression was not so relaxed.

Seeing that it was Lu Cheng who came out of Mo Lin's room, then he must have come late.

"Little Bazi, you're really fast. ”

"Fourth brother, you know in your heart that Mo Lin will never go to Zhongzhou to pasture. ”

"Hehe, I'm going to have to try anyway. ”

Zhang Laosi scratched his head, took out a bamboo slip from the cloth bag behind him, and handed it to Lu Cheng.

"A few days ago, I heard that you had a falling out with the old grandson of Penglai Dao Chang, so I sent someone to check the Luxian Palace, these grandsons are really a headache for Lao Tzu. ”

Lu Cheng opened the bamboo slip and read it, his expression gradually becoming solemn.

"In other words, did the Luxian Palace really take in the Queen of Qi? ”

"I suspect that this group of grandsons has hidden the entire Qi family. ”

"It's impossible for the Zong family not to know, what is he waiting for?"

Lu Cheng scratched his head, sometimes he really didn't understand the mind of the Zong family, his plan was too grandiose, too long-term, and too cautious. Even if Lu Cheng already thought that strategizing was his forte, he would still be confused by the layout of the Zong family.

"It's been fifty years, even if King Qi is still alive, it's a bad old man, is there anything else to worry about?"

"Fourth brother, King Qi is just a pawn, and the real danger is those guys behind King Qi. ”

Lu Cheng put away the bamboo slips, although there were all kinds of signs that Luxian Palace was making some small moves behind his back, but it still failed to directly prove that Luxian Palace and the remnants of the "Five Kings Rebellion" were in collusion.

"Don't move, since the Zong family didn't speak, then wait for it to change. ”

"Little Bazi, you kid is really hiding deep enough, twenty-six-year-old God Transformation Second Order, hey, you kid can. ”

In the face of Sun Laosi's praise, Lu Cheng only smiled bitterly, waved his hand and left along the stone road alone. The moonlight still showed a coolness in the mist, and the wind of Tianheng Mountain shook the bare ridge, and there was a hoarse wail.

The winter sun will always come with the rising sea of clouds, Yang Ming will use the yang qi of the morning to cultivate for a while at this time of day, since the awakening of the true qi yesterday, this kind of cultivation is no longer important to him, but the habit he has developed for a long time still makes him insist on getting up early.

At this time, basically only the senior brother who rings the morning bell will get up and insist on his exercise, and others should not get up so early.

After Yang Ming finished cultivating on the roof of the kitchen, he jumped down, took some ingredients from the warehouse and went to prepare breakfast.

Tuo Zhenyun watched the blessing of the Thunder Cloud Dragon Sect, and the peppers that were special in Heshang Prefecture were made into delicious pickled peppers by him, and he made chili sauce and pickles with pickled peppers. The radish and cabbage that I couldn't eat before came to life.

Boil a big pot of rice porridge, this big pot is estimated to be enough for dozens of people to eat, such a rice porridge kitchen has to boil four pots a day, Yang Ming naturally doesn't need to do so much work now, he only needs to take care of Lao Lu, Hu Yue and Lin Ruo's rice these days.

Fry the eggs in oil, fry the eggs until golden brown and crispy, and serve them directly on the plate with a handful of chives, and a good day is sure to start with an omelette.

After the omelette is done, the water vapor of the steamer has come up, and the chef and the good noodles last night have been very beautiful, Yang Ming skillfully twisted the dough into a flower roll, steamed directly in the steamer, and the fragrance of the noodles drifted directly in the kitchen.

"Wow, this smell!"

Lao Lu rarely got up so early, walked to the kitchen as if he was at his own home, looked around and picked up a cucumber and nibbled on it.

"Lao Lu, the cucumber was not washed!"

"Why didn't you say it earlier, kid. ”

Lao Lu hurriedly spit it out after biting two bites, and after soaking the cucumber with water in a basin, he gnawed it again.

Turning around, pinching two pieces of kimchi and throwing them in his mouth, Lao Lu sat on a stool in the backyard with half a cucumber, except for the meal in the morning, Lao Lu didn't drink, if there was no wine for lunch and dinner, he might not even be able to eat.

After a while, Yang Ming brought out a plate of fried eggs, a plate of pickles, a sour and delicious cucumber and his own pickled chili beef sauce.

Lao Lu has long been hungry for this hot sauce, although he ran to the point of soft hands and legs a few days ago, but this mouthful of pickled chili peppers is really fragrant.

The fluffy flower rolls and fragrant rice porridge were also served to Yang Ming, and after Yang Ming served the porridge, Hu Yue and Lin Ruo also came to eat breakfast very punctually.

After the flower rolls were dipped in spicy sauce, the fried egg was served with kimchi, and the hot porridge was served, Lao Lu took a breath of heat.

"This is life! I used to be in the open sea, and the breakfast I ate was really tasteless! The baked hard bread was smeared with butter! It didn't taste at all!"

Just when Lao Lu was talking about it, the door of the backyard was gently pushed open, and several people looked over and saw a person who usually couldn't be seen at all.

Morin stood at the door with some restraint, only a thin layer of hair on his head, and he was dressed like this, and some people believed him to be a monk.

He walked over to Lao Lu, who gently lowered his hand holding the flower roll and stood up from the stone bench.

"Disciple Mo Lin, meet the master!" Mo Lin lifted his robe, knelt on the ground, and kowtowed respectfully to Lao Lu.

"Yang Ming, give you senior brother porridge!"

"Gotcha. Yang Ming hurriedly ran to the kitchen and took another bowl out, and Hu Yue brought a bamboo stool from the corner of the backyard, wiped it with a rag and placed it next to the stone table.

"Come on, come on, drink this bowl of porridge, we're together!"

"Lao Lu, don't take my flower roll!"

"Uncle Shi, that's my omelette!"

Lao Lu beckoned Mo Lin to drink porridge, Mo Lin held the hot porridge, looking at the enthusiastic eating of these people, a feeling that he had never had before came to his heart, he took a sip of porridge, the white rice was very fragrant and warm.

Before, he was a little afraid of Lu Cheng, but now he felt a strange feeling.

Temperature.

Mo Lin felt that he was thinking too much, looking at Lao Lu's appearance of eating, such a reckless and pure person must not be as dark as Mo Jia's Mo Men.

He drank the porridge and kept drinking, the sour and crunchy cucumber was appetizing, the flower roll with dipping sauce tasted wonderful, and the fried egg was crispy and delicious.

Eating such a warm thing, Mo Lin's eyes also began to become gentle.
