Chapter 16: The Protector of the Way (I)
Getting up early, Xuan Lao came to the Danfang, and Lin Yan was already preparing inside.
"Yan Yan, let's not rush to refine medicine today, let's talk first."
"Yes, Senpai." Lin Yan put down the work in his hand and sat down at the tea table with Xuan Lao.
"I have something I want to talk to you about today, but before we talk about things, shouldn't we be honest, Lin Yan." Calling out Lin Yan's name, Xuan Lao looked at Lin Yan.
Lin Yan pretended to be panicked, and then quickly calmed down, "It seems that the senior has passed me." Yes, I am Lin Yan, but Yan Yan is also a subordinate, which is not to deceive the seniors. ”
"I don't blame you for this, I just hope that we can treat each other sincerely in the future exchanges. I know who you are, you may not know who I am, it's not fair to you, so I'll introduce myself. I, Xuansu, the previous head of the Xuanwu Continent's Xuan family. I guess you've heard of it, right? ”
After hearing this, Lin Yan hurriedly got up and saluted, "Elder Xuan's name is known to the whole world, and Lin Yan is also like thunder. I didn't expect to be able to meet my predecessors here, which is a blessing in the next. ”
Xuan Lao scolded with a smile: "Come on, don't be vain in front of me, your temperament has already told me, put away your well-behaved appearance." Didn't you look like you lied to me before? ”
Lin Yan smiled awkwardly and got up and sat down, explaining, "You have to be careful when you walk the rivers and lakes." ”
"So I don't blame you. Lin Yan, I really didn't expect that you not only have a high level of refining, but also have such a high level of refining, which is really terrifying! ”
"Xuan Lao Miao praised, the kid can achieve this achievement all thanks to the guidance of the famous teacher, this is the luck of the kid."
"Oh, the famous teacher? I have heard of your refining master, it seems to be called Ou Yezi, and the cadre respects him very much, and he is considered a famous teacher; Then who is your master of alchemy? ”
"My mentor is Wu Changsheng; Wood Pharmacist and Grandpa Mu have also been guiding me, and he is my No. 1 Pharmacist in the Red Leaf Continent. ”
"Wood Pharmacist?" Xuan Lao thought about it, as if he had such an impression, but it was very vague, "I'm afraid he can't teach it at your level of alchemy, right?" ”
"It's true. As long as you send someone to the Red Leaf Continent to inquire about this matter, you should be able to inquire. ”
"I still don't believe it." Xuan Lao narrowed his eyes and said, "The old man has lived for a long time, and he has seen it when you were refining medicine, and I am afraid that your alchemy technique wood pharmacist will not be able to teach you." ”
When Lin Yan heard this, he "chuckled" in his heart: It's bad! What should I do if I am seen? No matter what, you can't hurt Grandpa Mu. Lin Yan tried his best to calm himself down, and said slowly: "What the kid said is well documented, if Xuan Lao doesn't believe me, there is nothing I can do." However, the kid has always been obsessed with alchemy, and he also likes to ponder, and there are ...... There are also some opportunities that have been given to the kid, so the alchemy technique may feel a little familiar to you. "Since this alchemy technique has been recognized, Lin Yan has no choice but to say vaguely, I hope he has the reserve of his predecessors, after all, Huaibi is guilty.
Although he didn't explain it, he took things on himself in his words, and his feelings for the defense of the division commander were clear at a glance. Xuan Lao nodded secretly: Good character! "Lin Yan, don't be nervous, I'm not interested in those, just give you a reminder, I can see your alchemy technique, and other people can also see it, so, outside, you don't want to make a move, otherwise it will be a big trouble."
Lin Yan got up and made a big salute respectfully, "Seniors are generous, thank you seniors for mentioning and caring." ”
"Get up. I told Mei Operator about this last night, and he is also one of the insiders. ”
"Dean Mei, they have always loved the kid and can be trusted." Lin Yan said with confidence.
Xuan Su nodded and said, "It seems that they didn't hurt you in vain." Don't be clubbing, sit down and talk. Seeing that Lin Yan was still standing, Xuan Lao beckoned him to sit down.
"Lin Yan, I came to talk to you today, in fact, there is something I want to ask you for help."
Lin Yanhu looked at Xuan Lao suspiciously, and thought: What else is there in this world that you can't always put on an unfair face, and you still need a little person like me to do it. But he still said: "You always speak, as long as I can do it, I will not shirk it." ”
Xuan Su was waiting for this sentence, and said with a smile: "This matter is not difficult for you at all. ”
Lin Yan felt a feeling of being deceived, but it was naturally difficult to take back the words that had been spoken, so he smiled "hehe" and said, "Please also explain." ”
Xuan Su didn't say it directly, but asked rhetorically, "Lin Yan, do you know what kind of place this is?" ”
Lin Yan was confused and replied, "I don't know." ”
"This is the Ice Palace. Ice Palace, you haven't heard of it, have you? ”
Lin Yan shook his head, "The kid is knowledgeable, and he has never heard of it. ”
"No, it's not that you are shallow, there are very few people in the world who know about the existence of the Ice Palace, and I'm afraid they may not know about Mei Operator."
Lin Yan was stunned: The three brothers of Dean Mei can be said to be well-informed, and Xuan Lao said that they don't know it, and the Ice Palace is really mysterious enough. He didn't speak, waiting for Xuan Lao to continue.
"The Ice Palace can be said to be the oldest and most mysterious sect in the Tian Yuan Continent, not long after the continent had human beings, the Ice Palace has existed, do you say she has existed for a long time?"
Lin Yan gasped after hearing this: he couldn't count that time, but ten thousand years could no longer be counted.
"About the Ice Palace, you can find out for yourself if you have the opportunity, so I don't have to go into detail with you. What I'm going to tell you now is my other identity: I am the last protector of the Ice Palace. Let's put it this way, since my Xuan family founded a sect in the Xuanwu Continent, the protector of the Ice Palace has always been my Xuan family. As a protector of the Dao, although the Xuan family bears a certain responsibility, the benefits obtained from it are unimaginable, which is also the reason why my Xuan family has been able to stand in the Xuanwu Continent for nearly 10,000 years. ”
Hearing this, Lin Yan fidgeted: Xuan Su told him such a major secret, if he couldn't help him, his own life would probably be reversed. "Elder Xuan, can we not talk about this, I can't bear it in my lower body."
Xuan Su smiled and joked: "I'm afraid not, you must know about this." ”
Lin Yan smiled bitterly: "But I don't want to know." ”
"Originally, this matter had nothing to do with you. If you hadn't appeared here, I'm afraid you wouldn't have known about the existence of the Ice Palace in your life, but you came here by some means, and you happened to be at this juncture. Before you came here, I was preparing for the selection of the next protector of the Ice Palace, and the candidates were all found, and they were the descendants of my Xuan family. As long as they pass the test, the next protector of the Ice Palace will still be my Xuan family. But that's when you appeared. It appeared, but you passed the test. What do you say I should do? ”
"Ah......" Lin Yan was stunned and opened his mouth.
"It can be said that because of your sudden appearance, the foundation of my Xuan family's inheritance has been destroyed."
"It's not...... Senior, not ......" Lin Yan eagerly wanted to defend.
"What's not?" Xuan Lao sank his face and said, "Do you want to say: You intruded unintentionally, and you didn't intend to do this?" If I don't say this, can you continue to choose one of my descendants to be the protector of the path when you don't exist? ”
Lin Yan couldn't help but nod: Xuan Lao's statement is exactly what he thinks now.
"You are the Ice Palace opened by my Xuan family, you can do whatever you want!" Xuan Lao said sharply, "There is only one choice for the people who protect the path of the Ice Palace: whoever passes the test first will be the next person to protect the path!" Unless ......"
Unless what? Lin Yan doesn't have to think about it to know: unless this person is gone. Although it was cold, Lin Yan still sweated on his forehead.
"What are you nervous about? The pie in the sky has fallen on your head, and it's too late to be happy, you're still nervous. Xuan Lao scolded with a smile, "Alas, the old man has pretended to be a good person all his life, but he really thinks he is a good person, and he can't do it." I am really ashamed of the ancestors of the Xuan family. ”
"I, I ......"
"What am I? You don't want to be a protector? Xuan Su stared at Lin Yan, his eyes lit up, very terrifying, "Isn't it?" ”
The situation is stronger than people, and there is only one life, Lin Yan said with a wry smile: "Xuan Lao, shouldn't I be able to." ”
"Would you like to be?" Xuan Su said disappointedly, "God really doesn't bless my Xuan family." After saying that, Xuan Su stood up and walked to the door, opened the door and beckoned, "Girl, come here, since he is willing to serve as the protector of the Dao, you should meet." ”
After a while, Bing Qing'er came and walked into the Dan room.
At this moment, he was invited into the Dan room by Xuan Su, Lin Yan knew that his identity must be extraordinary, and he got up to greet him. When the woman entered the house, Lin Yan looked at it secretly, and was immediately amazed: How can there be such a woman in the world! The graceful figure and gestures are full of fairy spirit; The cold and noble temperament makes the viewer ashamed of himself and does not dare to give birth to an abrupt heart; The silk scarf makes people feel more mysterious and unpredictable; The pure and dustless eyes make people reluctant to look at each other, for fear that their worldly mortal spirit will pollute this purity. Lin Yan retracted his gaze and waited for Xuan Lao's introduction.
"Lin Yan, let me introduce you, this is Bing Qing'er, the current palace master of the Ice Palace. If there are no accidents, as the protector of this one, you will assist her for the rest of her life. ”
Things have developed so far, and it is difficult for Lin Yan not to become the protector of the Ice Palace. That is, he thought about it, and hugged his fist to Bing Qing'er and said, "Lin Yan has seen the palace master. ”
Bing Qing'er bent down slightly, exhaling like a blue and said, "In the future, there will be a son of Laurin." ”
"In the lower body, I am weak in the single strength, lest I have the responsibility of protecting the way."
Lin Gongzi was serious. You have no intention of coming here, but it may be the will of God, and it cannot be violated. Besides, the Ice Palace is isolated from the world, there is almost no contact with the outside world, let alone any disputes, and the level of force has little impact. Also, Lin Gongzi is in the prime of life, who knows what his future achievements will be? Just because Lin Gongzi has now been promoted to the Martial God, this achievement has already impressed me. I have confidence in Lin Gongzi, and I am even more glad that you can be the protector of my Ice Palace. ”
"Palace Master Xie values it, and he should go all out to protect the road when he makes up his mind."
"Okay, don't stand still, sit down and talk." On the side, Xuan Su saw that the matter had been finalized and beckoned.
The trio re-seated.
