Chapter 41: The Bai Family
After having dinner and refusing the little girl's desire to help him find a woman to warm the bed, Lin Dong began the practice of burning the formation. After a lot www.biquge.info of failures now, Lin Dong has been able to achieve a success rate of more than sixty percent by burning some first-level low-level formations now, which is what Lin Dong is most proud of recently.
Under the same level as Lin Dong, it is already a very rare thing for an ordinary formation mage to be able to achieve four achievements.
Only higher-level formation mages can achieve a high success rate when portrayed, but those high-level formation mages are too lazy to depict these simple formations, which also leads to the fact that the price of these low-level formations is not actually very low.
Bang!
All the formation patterns that had just been burned were burned to ashes.
Lin Dong frowned and looked at it, then threw the formation pen aside, now it is not his strength that is blocking his continued improvement, but the tools that he does not have in his hand.
This second-hand array pen, it can indeed be said that it is the end of life until now, many times it is Lin Dong who has no problems, but this formation pen has unexpected problems.
It seems that it is time to put aside the practice of depicting the formation pattern for a while, and when you return to the sect, you will find a suitable formation pattern pen. Putting away the materials, Lin Dong sat cross-legged on the bed and began to practice on dual-purpose or even multi-purpose in the incarnation. It's about whether or not he can actually get started.
The night was spent practicing, when the first rays of the morning sun shone through the window. Lin Dong opened his eyes on time, stood up and stretched. He pulled down the two ropes of breakfast and washing.
After washing up and finishing breakfast, Lin Dong heard a knock on the door, and when he opened the door, he saw that it was Bai Shuyuan, who was already dressed and ready to carry her luggage.
Today, Bai Shuyuan changed into a goose-yellow dress, and the butterfly peony embroidered on it was lifelike. His long, shiny black hair was stuck in a golden step. Although the decoration is simple, it sets off Bai Shuyuan's very elegant.
Before people got closer, a scent of roses entered the nose, light but long-lasting.
"Senior Brother Lin is early. Bai Shuyuan greeted Lin Dong with a hundred times more spirit.
Last night was the most comfortable bed in recent days, and the soft and wide bed was heaven and earth compared to the tiny and cruffy hardwood planks of the carriage.
Not to mention the hot bath that you can't take in the wild. can be regarded as saving Bai Shuyuan's life.
"Morning, since you're ready, why don't we go out for a walk?"
"Very good!" Bai Shuyuan happily agreed to the invitation initiated by Lin Dong.
As soon as the two of them walked out of the door of the inn with the package on their backs, they saw Old Man Huang, driving a carriage from the opposite side of the road slowly, and saw Lin Dong and Bai Shuyuan, their faces full of wrinkles with a smile.
"It seems that there is no chance. Lin Dong looked at Old Man Huang and said to Bai Shuyuan lightly.
"Next time, then. Bai Shuyuan's tone was slightly disappointed.
Even along the way, he didn't say a word to Old Man Huang, and Old Man Huang was a little confused.
I thought I was waiting for someone very early, but after waiting on the passenger ship, I found that the ordinary cabin was already full of people.
It's just that the environment in it is really not flattering, all kinds of packages, all kinds of sundries.
The cries of children, the cries of chickens and ducks, the chatter between adults are noisy,
Similarly, allowing poultry on board has caused another very serious problem, that is, these poultry have no way to control their urine and urine, and the smell is pervasive.
After asking Old Man Huang, I learned that these people were also people who were preparing to set off from Shangyu Port to Yanshan City.
"The world is difficult, these people are desperate people who are forced by the big clans, and people die in Yanshan City every year. The government will distribute these lands to these miserable people who have fled the famine. Sooner or later, it's better to die, it's better to fight. ”
Old man Huang opened the cabin door for Lin Dong and Bai Shuyuan, and got off the boat.
"You don't have to say more, I know it in my own heart. ”
Lin Dong saw that Bai Shuyuan had something to say to himself, and he could roughly guess what the content was, so he interrupted.
Bai Shuyuan nodded, and walked into the cabin that belonged to her.
The passenger ship broke the waves in the Heishui River, half a month, for Lin Dong it was like a blink of an eye, about the method of single-mindedness, just touched the eyebrows, there are still seven days, the passenger ship will arrive at Shangyu Port.
In the past half a month, there have always been people dying in the cabin, and during the day, when Lin Dong has nothing to do, he will stand on the deck and look into the distance, watching the mountains on both sides of the strait not only retreat.
There were always sailors who would put the dead refugees in sacks, throw them into the water, and then throw a bowl of white rice down. After asking, I learned that this bowl of rice was for the Dragon Lord's road money, and I hoped that when the souls of the dead refugees went to the underworld by the way, the Dragon Lord would not be embarrassed.
When someone dies in the cabin, except for those close to them, who shed a few tears to express their grief, no one else is touched at all. I don't know if it's ruthless, or if I'm used to seeing death and become numb.
Every time he saw the sailors throwing their bodies, Lin Dong silently told himself in his heart that he must not die so desolate and obscure like them.
When the passenger ship docked at Shangyu Port, the refugees disembarked from the ship, nearly 20% fewer than when they first boarded the ship. They took their belongings and went ashore silently, and in the disgusted eyes of everyone, they walked slowly towards Yanshan City step by step.
"Senior Brother Lin, let's wait here for a while, and there is an answer to my letter to my family. They will come here to pick us up. Bai Shuyuan hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Senior Brother Lin, if I am too intimate for a while, please don't care, it's to show them." ”
Lin Dong's eyes kept on the group of refugees, and it wasn't until they disappeared from view that he spoke: "I understand, don't worry, I won't do anything excessive." ”
When Bai Shuyuan heard this, she felt relieved and disappointed, this complicated mood made her want to vent, but she couldn't find an outlet to vent.
The two of them walked along the main road and slowly moved in the direction of Yanshan City.
The port is windy and humid, although Lin Dong and Bai Shuyuan's physique can be completely ignored, but the clothes are wet and always uncomfortable.
The two walked along the main road for about half an hour, and the sound of a carriage was heard in the distance.
"It's them coming. Half an hour ago, she said that it wouldn't take long, but now she and Lin Dong walked for almost half an hour before their carriage arrived. It made her face a little uncomfortable.
The carriage was huge and luxurious. Horses pulling carts. The limbs are strong and powerful, and the horse has a single horn on its head.
As the black-shirted servant sitting on the frame tugged at the reins, he exclaimed.
The Bai family's carriage stopped five meters away from Lin Dong.
The black-shirted servant hurriedly got out of the carriage, pulled out a small stool from the side of the carriage and put it on the ground, ran to the other side, opened the curtain, and a middle-aged man wearing a scribe's robe walked out of the carriage.
"Third uncle, why are you here!" Bai Shuyuan was very happy when she saw the middle-aged man, and threw herself into the man's arms with a smile on her face.
The middle-aged man patted Bai Shuyuan's back dotingly, then looked at Lin Dong and said, "After receiving your letter, I left to come, this is ......"
"This is Lin Dong, Senior Brother Lin. Bai Shuyuan's voice was full of shyness, and her face was a little red. "Senior Brother Lin, this is my third uncle. ”
"Senior Brother Bai, it's polite to Lin Dong in Xia!" Lin Dong bowed his hand. In the chat with Bai Shuyuan just now, Lin Dong learned that the three uncles of their Bai family, from his father to him, had all cultivated in the Liuyun Sect, and they were all innate masters.
The middle-aged man looked at Lin Dong carefully, and said with a smile: "Sure enough, he is a talent! It's just that why do you still call me senior brother, it's time to change your words!"
"Third Uncle, what are you talking about! Senior Brother Lin has just arrived, don't scare him!"
"Haha, people haven't married yet, but they have already begun to protect their food. Bai Shuyuan's childish behavior made Bai Lanjing laugh loudly. "Okay, okay, senior brother, let's get in the car, and it's not too late to talk when we get to Baishan Fort!"
After speaking, he waved his hand and let Lin Dong and Bai Shuyuan get into the car.
On the carriage, Bai Lanjing sat on the side, Bai Shuyuan leaned on Lin Dong and sat opposite, Bai Jing looked at Lin Dong and asked, "Lin Dong, I don't know what kind of realm you have cultivated the Liuyun Exercise now?"
"Senior Brother Hui, I have reached the third order, and when I return to the sect next time, I can receive a new volume and try to break through the innate nature. Lin Dong replied with a glance.
At the beginning, after Lin Dong advanced to the third order, he patronized the cultivation formation, and forgot all about the fact that the content of the first volume of the Liuyun Gong Method was only the third order of the day after tomorrow. Let him not go to the Dharma Transmission Hall for the first time and take the second volume of the corresponding Liuyun Gongfa.
"Third Uncle, Senior Brother Lin is still a true array mage who harmonizes yin and yang!" Bai Shuyuan said on the side, that proud tone seemed to be that she had become a formation mage herself.
Of course, this is something that Lin Dong has discussed with her before, and it is something that is allowed to be said. Otherwise, Bai Shuyuan would not dare to expose Lin Dong's strength casually and recklessly.
Hearing his niece's words, Bai Lanjing was shocked, but he still said with a smile on his face: "Unexpectedly, Lin Dong, you are still a formation mage, I don't know which great talent you are studying in the formation hall." It's Senior Brother Ouyang Huangpu, or Senior Brother Qin. ”
Lin Dong shook his head.
"Could it be Yuan Feng, Senior Brother Yuan?"
Lin Dong shook his head again and said, "Before leaving, Hall Master Feng gave me a waist card, saying that he would make his own arrangements after I advanced to the innate level. So I haven't apprenticed yet. ”
As soon as these words came out, not only Bai Lanjing was frightened, but Bai Shuyuan, who was sitting on the side, was taken aback. I only knew that Lin Dong had become a formation mage, but I didn't expect to be valued by the Feng Hall Master of the Formation Hall, that was the real pinnacle of foundation building!
