The sun in late August was like a big fireball, it was so hot, Lin Lei set off directly to his hometown 'Wushan Town' after having lunch with his three brothers, and on the road, Lin Lei carried a package containing a magic crystal nucleus worth more than 70,000 gold coins.

"Squeak~~" Bei Bei also squeaked excitedly on Lin Lei's shoulder.

Lin Lei glanced at Bei Bei, also laughed, and asked in the soul exchange: "Bei Bei, are you also happy to go back to Wushan Town?" By the way, I haven't asked you, how did you end up in my abandoned ancestral house in the first place? ”

"I don't know." Bei Bei shook her head helplessly, "I've been in your ancestral house for as long as I can remember, and I don't know who my parents are, but there has always been a voice in my memory, as if to say, 'Stay here, don't run around'." ”

"Stay here, don't run around?" Lin Lei's heart moved.

Could this voice be left by Beibei's parents?

"At the beginning, I ate stones, followed that voice and didn't dare to leave your ancestral house, and then the boss you gave me pheasants and hares to eat, and only the boss in this world is the best for me, I don't want to leave the boss." Babe wrinkled her little nose.

Lin Lei also recalled the original scene.

At the beginning, Bei Bei did hesitate for a while at the entrance of the village of Wushan Town, and finally saw that he was really leaving, so he bit himself and concluded a soul contract.

"Okay, Babe, we'll always be together." Lin Lei touched Bei Bei's head lovingly, and Bei Bei also squinted her eyes comfortably.

Lin Lei didn't walk too fast, moving at a speed of an hour and twenty miles, when he reached the edge of Wushan Town. It's late afternoon. As he advanced towards Wushan Town, Lin Lei also heard the familiar voice-

"One by one, I straightened my waist. Don't bend down, whose butt touches the branches below and gets painted. Even if it's a violation. Train doubled! Uncle Hillman's voice was heard from afar.

Lin Lei looked not far away.

In the familiar clearing east of Osan Town, next to the row of poplar trees, it was a group of children between the ages of six and seven to fifteen or sixteen who were divided into three teams, training hard under the strict supervision of Hillman and three other instructors, and the sweat made each teenager's clothes soak.

"That's how I trained back then." Seeing this scene, Lin Lei was very emotional.

"Lin Lei?" Hillman saw Lin Lei from afar, casually explained to Luo Rui and Roger next to him, and immediately ran towards Lin Lei. Directly came to Lin Lei with a bear hug.

"Uncle Hillman, it's been a long time since I've seen you." Lin Lei was also very happy.

"Haha, let's go, go home first, Master Hogg will be glad to see you." Hillman said with a smile, and then Hillman and Lin Lei walked towards the town of Ooshan.

"Young Master Lin Lei." Rory and Roger also greeted warmly from afar.

"Uncle Rory, Uncle Roger." Lin Lei also waved his hand, and then walked towards his mansion with Hillman.

"Lin Lei, you still came back with the package. What's in it? Hillman couldn't help but notice the package on Lin Lei's back and asked with a smile.

Lin Lei smiled mysteriously: "Gift, gift to my father!" ”

……

In the courtyard of the Baruch family's mansion. Hogg was lying in his chair, flipping through an extremely thick book.

"Lord Hogg, dinner is ready." A maid walked over and said respectfully.

Ever since the butler Ciri took little Wharton to the O'Brien Empire, there has not been a single servant in the entire Baruch family. Hogg is at least the patriarch of the Dragonblood Warrior family, so he can't do the work of his subordinates himself. So Hogg gritted his teeth and hired a maid.

"Oh." Hogg folded the book in his hand. glanced at the maid next to him, and sighed in his heart. "Fortunately, those nobles know that my son is now a genius magician at the Ernst Academy, and are willing to lend me gold coins, otherwise life would have been even more difficult."

"According to the current tax rate of Osan Town, it can barely cover the taxes of the kingdom and the salaries of the guards." Hogg felt aggrieved when he thought about it, and when the family passed down to his generation, most of what he could sell was sold out.

Fortunately......

He Hogg had two sons, two amazing sons.

"Lin Lei is now a fifth-level magician, and his graduation is about to be, so when the time comes, the family can hand it over to him, and I can also do what I have always wanted to do."

Hogg got up and walked towards the living room, and suddenly—

"Lord Hogg, Lord Hogg." Hillman's voice rang out from afar.

Hogg looked suspiciously towards the door of the mansion, and only then Hillman stepped in, and beside Hillman was a burly young man.

Seeing the smile on the face of the young man Hogg, he immediately bloomed, and greeted him with a big smile: "Lin Lei, you are back, haha, it's really good, this is really a big surprise." ”

"Agatha, please prepare a sumptuous dinner." Hogg patted Lin Lei on the shoulder affectionately, "Good boy, you're all getting taller than me, by the way, you don't usually wait until the end of the year to come back, what's going on this time?" ”

Lin Lei smiled mysteriously: "Father, I'll tell you when I'm done with dinner." ”

"So mysterious?" Hogg frowned deliberately.

Hillman next to him smiled and said, "Lord Hogg, Lin Lei told me that he has prepared a mysterious gift for you." I asked him, and he didn't say anything. ”

"Uncle Hillman." Lin Lei frowned and looked at Hillman.

"Okay, I don't say, I don't say." Hillman laughed.

As night fell, the land was dark, and several candles burned in the living room of the Baruch family, illuminating the entire living room. After dinner, the servant Agatha cleaned up the table, and only Lin Lei and Hogg were left in the hall before Lin Lei put his package in front of his father.

"What is this?" Hogg looked at Lin Lei suspiciously.

"Wait a minute, open it." Lin Lei got up and closed the door of the living room, and Hogg couldn't help laughing: "So mysterious? Also close the door. ”

Lin Lei sat down confidently: "Father, you open this package." ”

"I'd like to see what you've got in here." Hogg opened the package curiously, but there was a large bag in the package. The mouth of the big bag was tight, and a large number of magic crystal nuclei stuffed the bag bulging.

Hogg touched the big bag. Puzzled: "Such a big bag, it doesn't look like a gold coin." Is it the gravel? Hogg was a little puzzled, and as he spoke, Hogg opened the bag.

As soon as the bag is opened,

The flowers are green, and the colorful variety of magic crystal nuclei exude brilliant colored light, Hogg's eyes can't help but be studied, this is full of a big bag of various magic crystal nuclei, Hogg has never seen it in his life.

"This is the Crystal Nucleus?" Hogg's eyes widened, and he looked at Lin Lei in shock, and then swallowed his saliva with difficulty. Hogg had seen the Crystal Nucleus before, but he had never seen so many. There are so many magic crystal nuclei, it is too visually stunning.

Lin Lei nodded and said, "Yes, almost all of this bag is full of magic crystal nuclei, as long as a small number of a dozen are magic crystal stones." According to the value of the magic crystal nuclei recorded in the books, the value of these magic crystal cores should be more than 70,000 gold coins. ”

"More than 70,000 gold coins?" Hogg felt his heart twitch violently.

Hogg has been troubled by money all these years, and now if Hogg is asked to take out five hundred gold coins, Hogg will probably have to go out to borrow money. The embarrassment can be imagined.

More than 70,000 gold coins!

What is the concept? With more than 70,000 gold coins, it can definitely feed the entire Baruch family for more than a hundred years.

"Of course. More than 70,000 gold coins are just a figure calculated according to the price recorded in the book, and the price recorded in the book is still in the past, and the price should be slightly higher now. It is estimated that it can be sold for 80,000 gold coins. Lin Lei replied honestly.

Hogg looked at the pile of magic crystal nuclei in front of him, and felt as if he was in a dream. The whole person has a feeling of fluttering.

"Whew, whew!"

Hogg took several deep breaths before he managed to calm down.

"Lin Lei. Where did you get these crystal nuclei? Hogg suddenly reacted and stared at Lin Lei. You went to the Warcraft Mountains? ”

Lin Lei nodded: "Yes, father." These magic crystal nuclei were all obtained from the Demon Beast Mountain Range. ”

"You, you're ......" Hogg was a little annoyed, "The Demon Beast Mountain Range is the most murderous place in the entire continent, what a big deal it is to enter it, why don't you enter it without consulting me, do you know how dangerous it is inside?" ”

As soon as the words came out, Hogg laughed to himself.

Lin Lei had already been inside, and of course he knew how dangerous it would be.

Hogg looked at Lin Lei, who was silent with his head bowed in front of him, looking like he was listening carefully to the reprimand, and couldn't help but shake his head and sighed: "Lin Lei, it's not that my father wants to scold you, you must know that you are now a genius magician at Ernst Academy, and your future achievements are limitless." The burden of our Baruch family is to fall on your shoulders. After all, your brother is still young, and I don't know how long it will take for him to become a real dragon-blooded warrior. You carry my hope, the hope of our Baruch family, so you can't take your life for granted. ”

Lin Lei didn't dare to speak.

"Take your shirt off and let me see if you're hurt." Hogg said suddenly.

Take off your top?

Lin Lei hesitated, others couldn't see it when he was wearing clothes, but Lin Lei himself knew how terrifying the dense scars on his body were.

"Take it off." Hogg frowned.

Lin Lei hesitated for a moment, and finally took off his shirt to reveal his sturdy upper body, which was also covered with scars, and even a few scars were fatal!

Seeing the terrifying scars on Lin Lei's body, Hogg felt his heart tremble.

Hogg's trembling hands slowly touched Lin Lei's chest, as well as the almost fatal scars on his abdomen, seeing these scars, Hogg's heart was sour, his son had suffered so much, how to survive from the brink of death, Hogg couldn't think about it.

"Lin Lei, you ......" Hogg choked up.

"Father, I'm fine." Lin Lei immediately comforted.

Hogg looked at the pile of magic crystal nuclei that represented great wealth next to him, and then looked at the terrifying scars on Lin Lei's body like intertwined tree roots, and Hogg's whole body trembled slightly.

He hates!

Hate yourself for being incompetent, useless!

Taking a deep breath, Hogg looked up to the sky and was speechless, and then said in a low voice: "Lin Lei, you are tired from a day of traveling, go and rest early." ”

"Yes, father."

Lin Lei quietly left, leaving Hogg sitting quietly in the candlelit living room......

On the morning of the second day, at the dining table in the living room of the Baruch family, Lin Lei was surprised to find that his father was radiant, and even his mental outlook was completely different.

Putting down the knife and fork in his hand, Hogg looked at Lin Lei with a smile: "Lin Lei, stay at home for a while this time, my father hasn't seen you for a long time, let's get together with father and son." ”

Father let himself stay at home a little longer?

Lin Lei was a little surprised, after all, his father had never said such a thing for so many years. Originally, Lin Lei also planned to go to Finlay City to visit Alice by the way. But this time has already left Alice behind.

"Yes, father." Lin Lei nodded happily.

Hogg nodded happily, but there seemed to be something more in Hogg's eyes.

Li Amen secretly watched all this, but knew in his heart that Hogg had made up his mind and was ready to do everything to get revenge.

Many years ago, Hogg wanted revenge, revenge for his wife.

It's just that the enemy seems to be so powerful that if you just look for it carefully, you won't know anything at all.

This time, Hogg was ready to continue the investigation, regardless of everything, even if it was discovered by the enemy.

Because he's ready.

Get ready to die.

It's just that Hogg was different from now, but he has been hesitating.

Hesitating to take revenge, what about your own children?

So, Hogg endured and endured, and kept watching his children grow up.

Finally, Hogg saw hope from Lin Lei, and this time he was completely relieved of Lin Lei.

He felt that even if he died because of this, Lin Lei would be able to support this family.

Hogg's whole body exploded, and he felt that he didn't need to endure it anymore. He had made up his mind and was ready for revenge.

Li Amen sighed, if Lin Lei knew that his actions would cause such a result, would he still give the money to Hogg?

However, for this, Lin Lei can not be told in particular.

Hogg's death was an inevitable factor in Lin Lei's growth.

The reason why he gave up everything and embarked on that path began from here.

He may still have memories of his mother, but he doesn't feel much.

However, only this father, his death is another key to Lin Lei's rise.

And it's about the future.

Even though Amen knew everything, he couldn't say anything.

Everything Hogg does not die, and no one can say what will happen in between.

It is very likely that Lin Lei will be too happy, and his hard work and desperation will decrease from now on.

The reason why Lin Lei will be able to continue to grow in the future is related to his constant suffering.

Li Amen has already helped Lin Lei build a terrifying foundation, which will make his path too smooth.

If even this key thing is changed, then Lin Lei's future growth is really a bit dangerous.

Sometimes, strength and potential are important, but not as important as mood.

If there is no strong state of mind and no terrible will, Lin Lei will not be able to get through the level of soul mutation at all.

For the sake of Lin Lei and for himself, Li Amen can only do nothing. (To be continued......)
