Chapter 8: Exclusive Glory
Looking at the quaint city walls of Tianyun City, as well as the strange and familiar scenery around him, Lin Yuan was full of emotion.
Three years ago, when he left Tianyun City, he never thought that he would be able to come back one day.
Three years later, he fulfilled his vow and returned to the land of the Terrans with his father's bones.
Three years ago, Lin Yuan's ears were full of doubts and negative news about his father.
Some people say that Lin Yi is treasonous, some people say that Lin Yi defected, and some people say that Lin Yi is a spy of the barbarians.
Lin Yuan back then, although he didn't want to believe these rumors. But the three of them became tigers, and he was still a little uneasy in his heart, and he was not sure if his father had really done those degrading things.
Three years later, Lin Yuan came back, and he could say loudly and proudly that his father did not insult the prestige of the War Emperor, and did not do anything degrading and dignified.
Even if it is death, he is also dead openly and vigorously.
Although Lin Yi died, his spirit and will were still Lin Yuan's precious treasures.
Lin Yuan understands that he will definitely not be ashamed to have such a father, but a capital to be proud of for a lifetime.
"The glory that belongs to you, I will help you get it back. Don't even think of running away from those who framed you!"
Lin Yuan carried Lin Yi's coffin, secretly swore in his heart, and strode towards the city gate.
It was getting late, and the surrounding scenery was a little blurry and I couldn't see clearly. From Tianyun City, you can see the lights of thousands of homes in the distance and the smoke curling up.
This kind of scenery, which seems very ordinary to others, is extraordinarily beautiful in Lin Yuan's eyes.
After three years in the wilderness, he had never seen this kind of scenery.
"This is the place you protect with your life, it's really beautiful!" Lin Yuan looked at the land of the human race under his feet and muttered.
Originally, Lin Yuan was a little puzzled by Lin Yi's original choice. Lin Yi, who was the Emperor of War back then, was deceived into negotiating in Tianyun City, competing with the barbarian king Meng Shu, and said that whoever won would agree to the other party's conditions.
In the competition, Lin Yi used all his strength, almost by means of fighting for his life, and won the victory.
This brave behavior made the barbarian king Meng very recognized, and he also agreed to his conditions and retired after three days.
It's just that on the way back, Lin Yuan was ambushed. He was originally injured, and under the persecution of many good players, he could not return to Tianyun City, but was forced to flee to the depths of the Savage Realm.
At that time, he had been poisoned and was dying. At the last moment, he still rushed to the position of the barbarian base camp and killed the opponent of the barbarian king Meng Shu, who was also the culprit of the war, the barbarian marquis Xu Sanyou.
In the end, Lin Yi, who was seriously injured, jumped off the cliff in order not to be captured, pursued by many pursuers.
The whole process was extremely tragic, so that the barbarians who had always admired the brave man couldn't help but admire his courage and determination. ‘
This heroic act won Lin Yi respect. After that, the barbarians who went to search for Lin Yi's body at the bottom of the cliff did not take Lin Yi's body with him, but buried him at the bottom of the cliff.
According to tradition, the barbarians would make the skulls of dead Terran masters into wine containers to boast of their bravery.
It's just Lin Yi's performance that makes them unbearable to insult his corpse anymore.
In their opinion, such a way of dying is a good fate for the Terran brave. There was no need to go down and look for his corpse bones.
Because of this, three years later, Lin Yuan had the opportunity to recover his father's corpse bones in the Falling Eagle Valley at the bottom of the cliff.
Otherwise, according to the habits of barbarians, his father's bones would definitely be messed up and difficult to collect.
Just when Lin Yuan was secretly sighing for his father's heroism, he saw a long dragon with torches gathering in front of him.
The long dragon where these torches converged, growing stronger, was coming in his direction.
"These people are really ruthless enough, I just came back, are you going to do something to me?"
Seeing the long line of torches, Lin Yuan guessed that it was the Li family or other forces that were mobilizing troops to contain him.
Li Bing was also a little puzzled: "Where did these people come from, when did we have so many soldiers in Tianyun City?"
Li Li had an anxious expression on his face and said, "It seems that the Li family is not just a little ambush!"
Zhao Si, who was the captain of the city lord's personal guard, was a little puzzled: "We don't have other ambush soldiers!"
However, when looking at the very messy procession of these torches, as well as the original noisy voices in the distance, Lin Yuan knew that this was not the sound of the army, but rather the ordinary people of the human race.
Soon, the torch team had already appeared in front of Lin Yuan. It turned out that these people were the indigenous inhabitants of Tianyun City, and they were not so-called ambush soldiers. They just now were just a false alarm.
The torch procession was led by several very old villagers. They are all gray-haired, but their spirit is okay, and they all look a little majestic, they should be the village elders of each village.
"Li Laosan, Zhao Laofu, you don't want to stay in the village, what do you want to do with so many people?"
Li Li had been stationed in Tianyun City for so long, so he naturally knew the villages and the elders of the family in this Tianyun City.
The old man at the head pointed to the coffin that Lin Yuan was carrying and said, "Master Li, I heard that it contains the bones of Lord Lin?"
"Yes!" Li Li nodded, pointed at Lin Yuan and said, "This is Lord Lin's son, he recovered his father's bones from the wilderness. ”
"This is really Lord Lin, Lord Lin is back!" Hearing Li Li's words, the old men led by him all knelt down towards the coffin.
Looking at this scene, Lin Yuan was a little uncomfortable, carrying the side of the coffin's body, and some were reluctant to accept the gifts of these white-haired old men.
Seeing that he could be his grandfather at all these ages, kneeling in front of him, Lin Yuan was a little uncomfortable.
"What are you doing here?" Looking at these people's actions, Lin Yuan was a little puzzled.
The village elder who was the leader said: "Lord Lin sacrificed his life and forgot to die for the people of Tianyun City back then, and gave everything. Without him, our whole city would have died. He is our savior. Now that he is back, those of us in Tianyun City will naturally greet you and your father with the greatest courtesy. ”
As he spoke, these old men knelt down and bowed to Lin Yuan, making Lin Yuan feel very embarrassed.
"I can't stand it, I really can't afford your big gift!"
Lin Yuan didn't expect that these people would use such the highest etiquette of the human race to salute him.
"There's nothing you can't stand it, you are the son of Lord Lin, you can bear it!" said this, and these people finished saluting respectfully towards Lin Yuan and the coffin.
Subsequently, these people picked up the white cloth and hemp rope again, and made a move of wearing linen and filial piety.
"Lord Lin died for the people of our Tianyun City, no matter how others slander him, he is a hero and our benefactor in the hearts of our Tianyun City people!"
That night, the entire Tianyun City people were dispatched. All the residents of Tianyun City are wearing filial piety for Lin Yi and seeing him off.
"The Soul Returns......
When Lin Yuan walked on the streets of Tianyun City, there were people everywhere who were singing spiritualist songs for Lin Yi.
Wherever Lin Yuan went, there were people who were constantly sprinkling rice or other grains on the roadside.
Singing the soul song, it is in the hope that Lin Yi's soul can return and not be soulless.
As for Sami and the like, it represents another wish of the residents of Tianyun City, hoping that Lin Yi can eat enough and not go hungry.
In those years, when resisting the siege of the barbarians, the food in the city was in short supply, and the residents of the city were starving.
Lin Yi called on his soldiers to save part of the rations and relieve the people in the city.
Lin Yi leads by example, every day he just drinks a bowl of porridge and no longer eats anything else.
This kind of behavior of his was seen in the eyes and remembered in the heart.
These residents of Tianyun City will not forget the marshal who would rather starve himself than help the people.
In other parts of Tianyun Country, there were a lot of bad things or gossip about Lin Yi. But in Tianyun City, no one spoke ill of Lin Yi. If someone from outside the world speaks ill of Lin Yi, then he will be listed as a person who is not popular with Tianyun City. No matter where you are in Tianyun City, you are not welcomed.
The long fire dragon stretched for dozens of miles, and the crowd of black oppressors knelt on both sides of the road to welcome Lin Yi's return.
Originally, Lin Yuan was still sighing in his heart, Lin Yi's return was too quiet, not like an identity that a dying emperor could enjoy. According to the rules, the Tianyun Kingdom must at least send a golden coffin of sixteen carriages to welcome the return of the fallen marshal.
It's just that Lin Yuan came back very suddenly, and Li Qiang would not use the urgent post station to deliver this important news to the king of Tianyun Kingdom.
The return of the cold and silent made the death of Lin Yi, the tragic and fallen Emperor of War, seem a little unworthy.
However, when he saw these people of Tianyun City who spontaneously saw Lin Yi off, Lin Yuan understood that Lin Yi's death was worth it.
People's hearts!
Lin Yi used his actions to win the hearts of the people, win glory, and obtain the greatest glory that a marshal can obtain.
The actions of the people of the whole city wearing linen and filial piety, singing spiritualist songs, and greeting a person who is not related by blood are enough to show the success of this person.
"I didn't understand you, but now I can understand you. I know this is the result you want, and this is the glory you have to yourself!"
When Lin Yuan carried Lin Yi's coffin and came to the post station where he was temporarily resting, he turned his head to see that there was still a long torch behind him.
These torches, like stars, make the dark night not so dark.
