CHAPTER XX: Three YEARS
In the early morning, a ray of sunlight scattered through the branches and leaves on this mountain path, and a young man was walking on this path with a load of dry firewood.
"Phew, ha...... Phew, ha" The young man walked steadily on this rugged mountain path, and his mouth emitted a regular breathing sound, and with the sound of breathing, the young man's body seemed to begin to vibrate regularly.
Finally, the boy crossed the rough path and came to a farm compound.
"Whew, this recipe is quite effective!" Lin Liang put down a load of dry firewood on his shoulder, wiped the sweat from his forehead and muttered to himself.
The boy was none other than Lin Liang, and it had been three years since he lost consciousness in the Heavenly Death Mountain Range. When Lin Liang just woke up, he found that he was rescued by an old man, and then although he was injured, he had nowhere to go.
Putting a load of dry firewood in the backyard and looking at the sky, Lin Liang hurriedly ran to the front yard and began his daily cultivation.
Facing the bright sunlight, Lin Liang began to temper his body expressionlessly, and at the same time absorbed the meager aura in the air into the eight veins of the Qi Sutra in his body.
As time passed, Lin Liang's body sweated more and more, and finally, Lin Liang stopped his cultivation and let out a sigh of relief. Feeling the power in his body, Lin Liang's indifferent face inadvertently evoked a trace of arc.
"This physical body rebirth recipe is really a technique suitable for my physique, with my original absorption of spiritual energy, it will take at least four years to go from the second to the third layer of the spiritual quenching realm without any external force, and it is still a conservative estimate, but it has only been two years, and I actually feel that the first belt vein is about to be emptied!"
That's right, Lin Liang just woke up two years ago, and after waking up, Lin Liang suddenly found that his cultivation had inexplicably reached the second layer of the Spirit Quenching Realm, and the physical strength was even more powerful to reach the third layer of the Spirit Quenching Realm!
What's even more unbelievable is that Lin Liang's absorption of aura has actually increased, from one percent of the original normal person to ten percent now. This also made Lin Liang very pleasantly surprised.
At the same time, because of the improvement of his cultivation, Lin Liang even discovered a secret method of increasing his cultivation in the first volume of the Flesh Rebirth Recipe in his mindโthe Tuna Technique! It was also with the help of this Tuna Recipe that Lin Liang was able to catch up with the four years he had expected in just two years, and at the same time, he also felt that his first meridian and vein were about to be emptied.
"Brother Lin, I've been cultivating so early. An old voice came from the room. Lin Liang turned his head and saw that it was the old man who rescued him at the beginning, the owner of this place, Xu Ruhai, the old man Xu.
"yes, get used to it. Seeing that the person who came was his life-saving benefactor, Lin Liang greeted him with a smile: "It's not too late for the old man to get up, by the way, I have already cut the firewood I need in the past two days, and I will put it in the backyard." โ
"Well, thank you for your hard work. Xu Ruhai thanked with a smile.
"Don't dare to be, if you hadn't saved me and let me live here, I might have died in an unknown place, the grace of saving my life is comparable to that of my parents, what is it for me to do these things for you?" Seeing that Old Man Xu thanked him, Lin Liang hurriedly excused himself and said.
"It's all trivial......" Before Xu Ruhai's words could be spoken, a brutal voice rang out.
"Of course these things are nothing, the grace of saving lives is greater than the sky, not to mention that you have lived in my house for so many years. How can you pay off by doing these things!"
Hearing this voice, Lin Liang didn't react, but Xu Ruhai smiled bitterly, "I actually forgot about this stubble!"
I saw a bright figure appear in the courtyard, and although its appearance was not very beautiful, it was also eye-catching. This daughter is Xu Ruhai's granddaughter Xu Ruoxin.
"Ruoxin, why do you talk like this, quickly make amends to Brother Lin" Xu Ruhai was a little angry, and his tone became obviously serious.
"Grandpa, I'm not wrong!" Startled by Xu Ruhai's stern attitude, Xu Ruoxin exclaimed aggrievedly.
"I don't apologize yet!" Xu Ruhai's voice became more and more severe.
"I ......" Xu Ruoxin was about to speak, but was interrupted by Lin Liang's words.
"The old man doesn't have to be like this, Miss Xu is indeed right, I really can't repay your kindness, so please feel free to send it. Lin Liang waved his hand and said. "If nothing else, I'll go back to my room first. โ
Lin Liang really didn't care about other people's opinions, not to mention that Xu Ruoxin was just a fourteen-year-old girl. If Lin Liang had been three years ago, he would have argued, but now he is burdened with more important things, which are insignificant in comparison.
"Grandpa, listen to it, I'll just say I'm not wrong!" Hearing Lin Liang's words, Xu Ruoxin said with an arrogant face.
"You, come with me, I have something to tell you!" Xu Ruhai looked at Lin Liang's departing back, unable to calm down for a long time, remembering what he looked like when he first found him, I really don't know what kind of past he has.
In the study, Xu Ruhai and Xu Ruoxin sat opposite each other, Xu Ruhai sank like water, and Xu Ruoxin looked aggrieved.
"Okay, don't be wronged, this thing is obviously your fault, people don't care about you and kick your nose in the face!" Xu Ruhai said a little angrily.
"Grandpa, I'm just angry that he eats and drinks for nothing in our house, and I don't mean to target him. Xu Ruoxin said coquettishly, and the aggrieved look on her face disappeared.
"Alas, what do you want me to say hello!" Xu Ruhai sighed helplessly, who let this be his only granddaughter?
"Hehe, grandpa is the best for me!" Xu Ruoxin smiled happily.
"I said that you have a better attitude towards others, after all, it is not easy for him!" Xu Ruhai thought about it and said to his granddaughter.
"Why can't I see it?" asked Xu Ruoxin curiously.
"You only came to me a few months ago, I don't know what he looked like when I first found him!" Recalling the past, Xu Ruhai was also a little emotional.
"What does it look like?"
His face was hideous, and he had an inch-long wound on his chest, covered in blood. In my judgment, the wound must have been wounded by a soldier's weapon. Xu Ruhai said solemnly. In fact, there was something he didn't say, that is, when he looked at Lin Liang who was lying in a pool of blood, he actually had a feeling of fear.
"Soldier, isn't that a barbarian soldier!" Xu Ruoxin exclaimed.
"That's right, don't look at his usual smile, even I can't see through the things behind his smile!"
"So mysterious?" Xu Ruoxin's eyes widened, she didn't expect that there would be such things.
"In a few days, it will be the time for the Life and Destruction Sect to recruit disciples, and tomorrow I will take you to Chaoyang City with him!" Xu Ruhai said after a moment of silence.
"Really, I'm going to join the Life and Destruction Sect, so won't I be able to see Brother He Yun soon?" Xu Ruoxin said in surprise. "But what are you taking that guy for, he also wants to join the Life and Destruction Sect?" Hearing that he was going to be with Lin Liang, Xu Ruoxin was immediately unhappy.
"I promised him to take him to join the sect, not to mention that I am also kind to him, isn't it good for you to take care of more than one girl in the sect?" Xu Ruhai explained.
"He is estimated to only have the strength of the first layer of the Spirit Quenching Realm now, I am two years younger than him and have the cultivation of the third layer of the Spirit Quenching Realm, with his talent, it is estimated that he can only be a miscellaneous disciple, and I still want him to take care of it?" Xu Ruoxin said unconvinced.
Xu Ruhai was silent, it was true that Xu Ruoxin was only fourteen years old and had already cultivated the third layer of the Spirit Quenching Realm, and her talent was already good. But he doesn't like to see others judge their achievements based on their talents. At that moment, he coldly threw down a sentence: "The matter is settled." Then he left the study.
"Grandpa!" Seeing Xu Ruhai leaving, Xu Ruoxin saw that her grandfather, who was usually obedient to her, didn't care about her this time, but at the moment, she felt a little more bad for Lin Liang, and said in her heart, "If you enter the Life and Destruction Sect, you must let Brother He Yun teach him a good lesson!"
"Sneeze!" Lin Liang touched his nose suspiciously, not knowing what was going on. After thinking for a moment, Lin Liang shook his head and ignored these, and instead took out the gourd left by the old man from under the pillow.
Slowly rubbing the old shell of the gourd, Lin Liang couldn't help but think of those memories with the old man. At that time, everyone was still there, Wang Caijuan and the little fat man were still there, although he couldn't cultivate at that time, he was very satisfied. Suddenly, Lin Liang unscrewed the mouth of the gourd, and poured wine into his mouth in a big gulp, but two lines of tears flowed from the corners of his eyes.
Bang bang bang!
"Brother Lin, are you free, I have something to tell you. Xu Ruhai's voice came from outside the door.
Lin Liang hurriedly wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes, hung the gourd around his waist, and squeezed out a smile before running to open the door.
Lin Liang opened the door and said with a smile: "The old man has something to say." โ
"Oh, good!" Xu Ruhai walked into Lin Liang's room with a complicated mood, although Lin Liang was smiling just now, Xu Ruhai's years of keen observation found tears in the corners of his eyes.
"It seems that I came at the wrong time!" Xu Ruhai said in his heart.
