036 Five families, the Ye family
"What kind of treasure is there in this dark forest that deserves the lives of so many Jianghu guests?"
At night, sitting in front of the bonfire, Lin Ze asked Wang Xiaoming again.
Regarding this matter, Wang Xiaoming originally had no intention of concealing it, and said: "I don't know the specific situation, I only know that there are important people in the Ye family who have come here, and it seems that there is something here that they value very much, and it is inevitable." ”
"Ye family, which Ye family?" Lin Xue was slightly stunned.
"Which other Ye family can there be, the Ye family of the Jin Kingdom. Wang Xiaoming said casually, and the sneer in his eyes flashed.
The Ye family of the Jin Kingdom, although there are many people with the surname Ye in the Jin Kingdom, and the Ye family of all sizes is estimated to have double digits, but there is only one family that can afford the four words "Ye Family of the Jin Kingdom". That is the northwest Hou Yexiong lineage, and the founding emperor of the Jin State is the friend of the eight worships, the inheritance has a history of more than 1,000 years, sitting in several cities in the northwest of the Jin Kingdom, with hundreds of thousands of soldiers, the guests are like clouds, and the richness of the heritage far exceeds that of the Lin family.
In terms of the Jin Kingdom alone, if each family is divided into three, six, nine and so on, then the Lin family, the overlord of a city, can only be regarded as a second-rate family. However, the Hou Ye family in the northwest is a real first-class family, in addition to the royal family of the Jin Kingdom, only the four families of Xiao Qiyan and Liu can fight against it.
These five families are also known as the five great families of the Jin Kingdom, and even the royal family of the Jin Kingdom have to be polite to them.
As soon as he heard that it was the Ye family of the Jin Kingdom who was involved in the Dark Forest, Lin Xue couldn't help but feel a little more dignified, "Who is the important person who came to the Dark Forest this time?"
Wang Xiaoming replied: "The Ye family's little waiter, Ye Mingyu." ”
"Ye Mingyu?" Lin Xue frowned, and there was a little more thought in his eyes, "Strange, why do I seem to have heard of this name somewhere?"
"Of course you've heard of it. Lin Xue next to her said coldly, "A year ago, he was one of the people who proposed to the Wang family. ”
"Oh, it turned out to be him!" After Lin Xueyi reminded him, Lin Xue suddenly remembered, and smiled very happily, "It's the gentleman who proposed to Yuan Ji with a dowry with great fanfare, but after being rejected by Yuan Ji, he was angry and angry, and wanted to rob but was cut off by Yuan Ji's sword, and was finally beaten by Yuan Ji all over the ground looking for teeth, and fled in a panic." ”
Since Wang Yuanji was predicted by the masters two years ago that she had the qualifications of a Valkyrie, there has been an endless stream of people proposing marriage to the Wang family, of course, every time Wang Yuanji refused.
Wang Yuanji will not talk about these things to Lin Ze, but it is not difficult for Lin Ze to know, and someone will always bring him these news. Lin Ze didn't remember very clearly which people had asked Wang Yuanji to marry, but he was very impressed by this person, after all, in his memory, it should be the only time that Wang Yuanji was really angry, but he didn't expect that the person he was talking about would be the little master of the Ye family.
Wang Xiaoming said: "Ye Mingyu, the youngest candidate of the Ye family, has been indulgent since he was a child, and he has done many things to bully men and women, but he is indeed an out-and-out genius, refining qi at the age of ten, and now at the age of eighteen, he is already a powerhouse at the ninth level of qi refining, and among the younger generation, there are few who can beat him." ”
Lin Xue smiled and was noncommittal, "There are few people who can beat him with thick skin." ”
There was a bit of contempt in Lin Ze's words, of course, he did have a reason to despise a gentleman who wanted to rob if his marriage proposal did not succeed, not to mention that the object of the proposal was still his prospective daughter-in-law. As a man, he will never be treated to a rival in love.
It's just that contempt is contempt, but Lin Ze can't ignore it in his heart, after all, the other party is a martial artist of the ninth level of qi refining...... Lin Ze suddenly remembered the white-clothed boy he saw in the inn yesterday, if it was right, that person should be Ye Mingyu.
Lin Xue said at the time that he only had the seventh layer of qi refining, and it seemed that the other party had also hidden his strength at that time.
After chatting for a while, the three of them rested, and the next morning, they set off again for the depths of the dark forest. Although there were many monsters along the way, with the existence of Lin Xue, a great master, it was difficult for ordinary monsters to do anything, and they walked for a while without danger.
Seven days later, Wang Xiaoming said goodbye and left, before leaving, he was rare and serious, and said to Lin Ze: "Ye Mingyu's intention to come to the Dark Forest is unknown, but he must know you, if you meet him, for the sake of safety, you can avoid it." ”
For the hidden meaning of this sentence, Lin Xue is not incomprehensible. Although the reason for Wang Yuanji's rejection of other people's marriage proposals did not involve him, ordinary people may just think that Wang Yuanji looks down on those people, but with the power of the Ye family, most of them can find out, after all, the relationship between him and Wang Yuanji is not a secret within the Wang Lin family.
And with Ye Mingyu's surname, it is not impossible to come to him for trouble.
Of course, Lin Ze will not be afraid of this, he will not take the initiative to provoke Ye Mingyu, but if Ye Mingyu really comes to trouble him, then he can only return with a sword, even if the other party is a young candidate of the Ye family, even if the other party's backstage is one of the five great families of the Jin Kingdom.
Having said that, compared to Ye Mingyu, what Lin Xue cared about more was Wang Xiaoming, and his intuition told him that this person was not simple.
Perhaps, he came for Ye Mingyu. Lin Xue looked at Wang Xiaoming's back and said in a deep voice.
Lin Ze nodded, he really couldn't rule out this possibility.
"Forget it, why do you care so much about other people's affairs. ”
With a wave of his hand, Lin Ze no longer paid attention to the matter, and after a while, the two continued on their way.
Although the outer and middle areas of the Dark Forest are not very large, as long as you enter the depths of the Dark Forest, you can feel that this place is so big that it is a headache, and the terrain is complex and difficult to navigate, ordinary people are afraid that they will get lost after not staying long, and it will be difficult to get out for the rest of their lives.
Lin Xue and Lin Xue, as martial artists, have come here to experience again, of course, they will not get lost, but it is not so simple to find the cave they are talking about, even if Lin Xue still has a vague memory of that cave, at this moment, the more important thing is to only hope for luck.
As she said before, Lin Xue didn't ask Lin Xue what she wanted to do when she came to the Dark Forest, Lin Xue went east, she went east, Lin Xue went west, she went west, Lin Xue came and went back and forth repeatedly, and she followed, for more than half a month, she said no more than ten words.
For Lin Xue, silence is nothing, her longest record is that she didn't speak for three months, and even her sense of existence will gradually fade, but Lin Xue is a little sad. The Dark Forest was already a dull place, and there was an iceberg that didn't like to talk to it...... The so-called one who is close to Zhu is red, and the one who is close to ink is black, and even he is about to become a stuffy gourd.
In fact, the iceberg is nothing, and the more important thing is that because Lin Xue is his sister, if Wang Yuanji is followed by him, then it can relieve boredom to some extent...... At this time, Lin Ze missed Wang Xiaoming a little, although that guy was a second-class product, he was quite interesting.
Just when he entered the dark forest for almost a month, the cave where the silver sword was stored had not yet been found, and Lin Xue was the first to reach the fifth layer of qi refining.
The reason why he has entered the realm so quickly, in addition to his persistent cultivation, is more important is the Vajra refining technique.
The cultivation of the fifth layer is to solidify the true qi of the whole body, so as to achieve the effect of quenching the body, and it is also at this time that the body of the martial artist will become more powerful, with a strength of more than a thousand catties. And although the Vajra Refining Body Technique is not used to refine qi, the effect is much the same. Lin Xue practiced the Vajra Refining Body Technique while refining Qi, and the two-pronged approach made natural and rapid progress.
After reaching the fifth level of Qi refining, Lin Xue obviously felt that his body was several times stronger than before, and it seemed that he had inexhaustible strength in his body, even if he didn't use True Qi, he could bring down an elephant with his bare hands.
This obvious increase in strength made Lin Ze very excited, and even the dullness of the past was swept away.
Good things came one after another, and on the third day after that, Lin Xue finally found the clue to the cave - a broken sword.
This broken sword, which was broken into two and lay on the grass, was probably rusted due to the erosion of wind and rain, but Lin Xue could still clearly recognize that this was the sword he had used, and when he was besieged by the killers of the Lou family, it completed its last mission.
"This is your sword?" Looking at the two severed swords in Lin Xue's hand, Lin Xue opened his mouth and said the twelfth sentence in the past half a month.
Lin Xue nodded, looking at the fog in front of him, "If I'm not mistaken, the place ten miles away is what I'm looking for, but it's really strange, there was no fog at all at that time, how could this be such a big fog?"
Looking thousands of miles away, it seems that the entire mountain forest is covered by a sea of fog, making it difficult to see the direction.
"It's not surprising, the Dark Forest is a foggy land, don't you know?"
At this moment, an abrupt voice came from behind the two of them.
