Chapter 1: Anomaly

Next Chapter

Today's Donglin Mountain is not as quiet as before, there is a wind blowing through the broad-leaved forest at the foot of the mountain, and the sun is struggling to break through the layers of denseness, sprinkling patches of mottled spots, reflecting the people sitting cross-legged under the trees, their faces are cloudy and sunny.

Although this group of people is extremely embarrassed, they look closely, and the clothes they are wearing are very good compared to the poor people. Especially the group of young people who were surrounded by it, their clothes were obviously much more delicate, but their faces were hasty.

Most of the people sitting around the periphery were middle-aged men, although they were all injured, they still kept their composure. The teenagers sitting in the inner circle, although their injuries were much lighter, their faces were not very good-looking, and they could even hear faint sobs.

Somewhat different is that near the innermost circumference sits a middle-aged man with gray temples, who does not smile. But it was obvious that he wasn't so nervous, and he was the most relaxed of the group.

Faintly protected by him was a young man with Peiyu, his face was still a little pale, and his expression was in a trance.

The middle-aged man frowned, and touched the young man with Peiyu without a trace.

The boy seemed to react at this time, breathed for a while, made his face more rosy, and then coughed and stood up. Everyone fell silent and looked at the young man.

The young man opened his mouth and said, "Although there was an accident in this trial, thanks to your full efforts, we did not suffer too many casualties, Ling Yu would like to thank you all here." Then he bowed.

The teenagers in the inner area were a little surprised, and couldn't help but start whispering, but in the end, they were all silenced by the middle-aged man's gaze.

The men on the periphery were even more surprised, and hurriedly said: "I can't do it, Da Langjun, I can't do it." ”

The young man named Ling Yu smiled and said, "There is nothing to be avoided, this is what you deserve, in addition, the guards who participated in the battle this time can get five taels of silver, those who are seriously injured can get ten taels of silver, and those who unfortunately die can be twenty taels of silver." ”

Everyone suddenly cheered, for an ordinary family, if there is no one in the family to practice martial arts, twenty taels of silver is enough to live comfortably. For these Ling family guards, five taels of silver is also a good income.

The atmosphere suddenly relaxed, and the guards couldn't suppress the smiles on their faces.Thinking that the cheats that I had been reluctant to buy a few days ago could be bought, but I don't know if the store kept it.

If you don't have it, it doesn't matter, you can wait for the store to readjust the goods, and the rest of the money can buy a few good clothes for the mother-in-law at home. I haven't seen her wear a new one for many years, and it's not easy for my mother-in-law.

Ling Yu had already sat back in his place, listening to the faint admiration around him, with an irrepressible pride on his face. Glancing vaguely at the silent teenagers on the periphery of the crowd who seemed to be out of place with their surroundings, he snorted coldly, and continued to accept the compliments from the teenagers in the inner circle from time to time with a smile.

At this moment, a hurried scream came from the guards who stayed behind a little distance, "Wolves, wolves, wolves, wolves, wolves are coming!" Everyone suddenly turned pale and panicked.

The middle-aged man who had been pranayama with his eyes closed finally opened his eyes, glanced at the panicked crowd, and reprimanded: "What a panic! Don't hurry up and form a formation to meet the enemy! One team of people escorted all the Langjun with me to leave, and the other team broke off behind!"

The crowd was finally a lot more orderly, and the group of pale young men walked to their positions one after another and formed an array. Ling Yu stood in it, his face was already white and transparent, but he still pretended to be calm, and said loudly: "Everyone!"

When everyone looked at him, he bowed to the guards after the break, and said, "I, Ling Yu, swear here, if you encounter misfortune, the Ling family will protect your wives and children, and your children, as long as they are talented, can become the reserve of the Ling family's guards and enjoy the resources of the Ling family!"

As soon as they heard this, everyone after the break immediately made up their minds, with their age, it was almost impossible to achieve any great achievements, but the children were still young, if they could get the resources of the Ling family, maybe they would have hope to go further.

At this moment, Ling Yu suddenly looked at the black-clothed young man who had been silent in the crowd and said, "Ling Heng, why don't you also break off together." After all, you have already built a foundation, we are still only in the forging stage, one more foundation building master, everyone has more hope of escaping, and you are most familiar with this Donglin Mountain, you will not be unwilling. ”

Everyone immediately looked at each other, and a young man in Tsing Yi couldn't help but want to say something, but was pulled by another person and pointed to the middle-aged man who had been looking relieved when Ling Yu started to speak.

The middle-aged man just stood beside Ling Yu with his chest crossed and never said a word.

The young man in Tsing Yi muttered a few words, looked at the guards who were silent and their eyes flashed around him, and the other partners who were either gloating or just couldn't see anything, with a gloomy face.

After all, one is the eldest grandson, and the other is just a side of the Ling family, and both parents are dead, this multiple-choice question is not difficult to do. Thinking of the elderly grandmother at home, the other leg that has not yet stepped out, suddenly seems to weigh a thousand pounds.

To everyone's surprise, Ling Heng just glanced at it expressionlessly, and then disappeared in front of everyone with a jump.

Ling Yu's face was a little gloomy, he pulled the corners of his mouth, and said with a reluctant smile: "I thought that everyone would collect firewood and the flame was high, but I didn't expect him to be unwilling." ”

The middle-aged man glanced at Ling Heng's departing back with a cold face, sensed the wolves that were getting closer and closer nearby, and shouted: "Formation!"

In the gloomy mountain forest, the figure of the black-clothed young man loomed, and it didn't stop until he left the limit range that the master of the Perception Realm could perceive, erased his traces, and walked for a while. Then he turned his head, the corners of his mouth hooked slightly, and said, "Come out, I see the mark you left." ”

A young man in blue with a delicate face and gentle eyebrows appeared from behind the tree, dressed simply, followed by a middle-aged man who was thin and slightly old.

Then the black-clothed young man stood up straight, saluted the middle-aged man, and said, "I've seen Grandpa Jing." ”

Grandpa Jing smiled and said, "Henglang-kun doesn't have to be polite. ”

After saluting each other, the young man in blue smiled and said, "I thought you would do it directly." ”

"I'm not that stupid. ”

The blue-clothed young man smiled and said, "You should think about how to get out of the Ling family." ”

Ling Heng was stunned and said, "I didn't expect you to say that." ”

"Although I know that the children of the family should take on the responsibility they should bear when they accept the blessing of the family, but if there is no one in the family who I care about, even if they will continue to stay, it is because of that responsibility. ”

The blue-clothed young man's face was indescribably complicated, as if he remembered something, "But if you continue to stay in the Ling family, I'm afraid it will be even worse in the future." ”

Ling Heng was silent for a while, in fact, the Ling family was not bad about these distant side branches, and they could pull it when they were in trouble.

His parents were deacons of the Ling family, and after he died in the line of duty, he has been raised by the Ling family, and there are enough quotas for food, clothing, housing and transportation. When you start cultivating, you can also cultivate with all the gentlemen. The resources are naturally not as good as those of the Lang Jun, but they are enough.

Even when he was a child, he had a good relationship with Ling Yu.

It's just that later, it's not clear when it began, and there were more and more contradictions, and it became what it is now.

The children of the distant side branches are talented, enough to compete with the outstanding children of other families in Yicheng, but on the contrary, the descendants of the Ling family do not have outstanding talents, the longer the time passes, the heavier the suspicion, and if this continues, I am afraid that they will really turn against each other.

It's better to leave directly as Shu Huo said, but to leave a line, so as not to completely tear your face.

"I'll be ready. Ling Hengdao, after getting used to it, he realized that he didn't care anymore.

"But don't be too soft-hearted, although the head of the Ling family is not bad to you, but Ling Yu and the others really want to put you to death, and they can't let the enemy go. Shu Hui said.

"Among the two of us, you are the most soft-hearted, the first time we met, it was you who almost died because you saved people because of your soft heart. With a faint smile on his face, Ling Heng said.

Shu Huo was a little embarrassed and said, "It was an accident, an accident." Well, we should go too, and if we don't leave, we won't be able to go back. "Today's Donglin Mountain is a little strange, when he came in, he also encountered a group of demon beasts, if it wasn't for Grandpa Jing's protection, although he could still get out safely, there would definitely be losses.

I don't know if it's just a problem in Donglin Mountain, or if there is a problem in the entire Yueyang Mountain Range, if the former is okay, if it's the latter, it will really be an unimaginable disaster, maybe it may be more terrible than the disaster in the eighth year of Chengping.

And, most importantly, if you dare to spend the night in the mountains in this case, even if you can ensure safety, you won't want to be discharged from the hospital in the next few months.

It can be regarded as a gift from God to have parents who care about him so much in this life, but the elders are too spoiled, and it is also a little unbearable, if he is not an adult, I am afraid that he would have been raised crookedly.

The group of three people left the place and prepared to return to Donglin Town, but the demon beasts in Donglin Mountain who were restless for unknown reasons ignored the existence of these three people intentionally or unintentionally.
