Chapter 16: The Forbidden Forest Experience
"What? You're going to the Forbidden Forest? I disagree! Lin Canghai flicked the sleeves of his robe, snorted, and categorically refused Lin Feng's request.
Lin Feng knew that his realm was still a little vain, with that time bomb lurking in his body, maybe when he would fall down from the seventh order again.
As a top priority, he needs to improve his strength, and in the Lin family, the best place to improve his strength is the Forbidden Forest.
The Forbidden Forest is a small mountain range owned by the Lin family alone outside Benlei Mountain, which is overgrown with wild trees, and some fierce demon beasts are raised among them.
Most of those demon beasts are above level five. And to deal with a fifth-level demon beast, without the sixth-order strength of the martial apprentice realm, there is no 100% certainty. Even if it's a sixth-order, it's best to go in a team to ensure safety.
The Forbidden Forest was originally a place to punish family sinners, but in recent generations, it has gradually become a place for some of the clan's disciples above the ninth rank of the martial arts realm to go to experience and collect leather materials.
In the Silver Moon Continent, many demon beasts are full of treasures, and the leather can be tanned and made into soft armor. Some of the flesh of the powerful monsters can be used as food to strengthen the body.
And Lin Feng wanted to go to the Forbidden Forest this time, mainly because of experience. Only by constantly fighting can his realm be stabilized and continue to grow and break through.
But Lin Canghai is very precious to this grandson, especially now that the Lin family is calm on the surface, but in fact, the dark tide is turbulent.
Lin Canglu has been secretly competing with him, and now that Lin Feng has recovered his strength, he will become a thorn in his side.
Lin Canghai was still not at ease with Lin Feng in front of him all the time, let alone going to the Forbidden Forest.
Last year, they captured a seventh-order demon beast Fire Storm Bear in the Forbidden Forest, which was enough for one first-order martial artist in the Warrior Realm and four ninth-order martial artists in the Martial Apprentice Realm to be caught in a day's work, and they also damaged two ninth-order disciples of the Martial Disciple Realm.
Lin Canghai has always been worried about whether there will be other fierce demon beasts in the Forbidden Forest.
"Grandpa, don't worry, I will definitely return safely." Lin Feng has a black line in his head, this old man is too used to his grandson. But grandpa's kindness also warmed his heart.
"Why don't I find you a few buddies?" Lin Canghai thought about it and made a decision.
Undoubtedly, he immediately called a few children of the Lin family who were about twenty years old. Lin Lang, Lin Hu and Lin Leopard.
Lin Lang is seventeen years old, and Lin Hu and Lin Bao are twin brothers, twenty years old. They are all very outstanding children of the Lin family. Especially Lin Lang, who is currently ranked second only to Lin Chu in the Lin family.
It's a pity that he was born in a side branch and his family is poor. Recently, Lin Canghai is focusing on cultivating him, planning to promote him to the sect family.
"I'll hand Lin Feng over to you, you accompany him to the Forbidden Forest for some training, remember, safety first!" Lin Canghai Road.
"Yes!" The three of them agreed in unison.
Lin Feng was simply speechless, what was the point of this? But he also knew that he couldn't resist his grandfather, so he had to agree, and secretly plotted in the forest to get rid of these people.
……
The night was like water, and the moonlight poured like mercury on the earth.
A young man with a straight figure stood in a garden gazebo, as if waiting for someone.
A cold light burst out in the distance, several ups and downs, and there was a sudden increase in the pavilion.
"Lin Lang, see the second master!" The boy felt a chill to the bone, and his hair exploded.
As soon as he turned around and saw Lin Canglu, he saluted without humility or arrogance.
Lin Canglu's robe sleeves flicked, and a cold spiritual power lifted him up: "No need to be polite, I called you here today, you should know what is going on, right?" ”
Lin Lang was silent.
"Your sister, I heard that she was promised to be married to the son of Yuan Fatzi, who was on the side branch of the Yuan family. What I know about Yuan Fatzi has always been idle and not doing his job. His son is also 'the son of his father's business.'" This one, living is extremely poor! ”
Lin Canglu remained silent, stroked his beard and said lightly. Out of the corner of his eye, he was always staring at Lin Lang.
Lin Lang secretly clenched his fists, biting his lip and not speaking. Fatherless and motherless since childhood, he and his sister, who is one year apart, depend on each other. According to clan rules, girls do not have the right to marry. As soon as they reach the age of fourteen, they are assigned to marriage by the elders of the family.
The marriage of his sister is a big problem for Lin Lang. How can that Yuan Fatzi's son be worthy of his sister?
However, Lin Lang also knew Lin Canglu's intentions, he must have learned that he was going to accompany Young Master Lin Feng to the Forbidden Forest, so he wanted to do something himself, right?
Lin Lang is at war with heaven and man in his heart, never obeying or not, on one side is loyalty, on the other side is family affection, it is difficult to have both.
"Even if you don't think about your sister, think about yourself." Lin Canglu's tone softened, and he became very kind, in terms of seniority, Lin Lang should also call him the second grandfather.
Lin Lang was still silent, he knew very well who Lin Canglu was. Besides, the head of the family has been treating him well in the past few years, and he has deliberately cultivated him and promoted him, so he can't betray the head of the family.
"Do you know what I've been investigating lately? Lin Feng's mother was assassinated a few years ago, and your parents also died because of that battle at that time, you should still remember, right? Lin Canglu said slowly.
Lin Lang's body trembled obviously, his eyes closed slightly, and his eyelids trembled slightly. The death of his parents was a nightmare haunting his heart. For so many years, as long as he closed his eyes, he could hear his father's screams before he died, and his mother's advice before he died.
"Lang'er, you have to be strong and take your big sister well."
For so many years, he has always adhered to his mother's legacy and dared not slack off.
"I recently found out that the death of your parents is inseparable from Lin Feng's mother." Lin Canglu said, "In this way, Lin Feng can also be regarded as your enemy." For revenge, for your sister's future, and for your future, it shouldn't be considered disloyalty or injustice for you to help me. ”
Lin Lang was finally moved: "What do you want me to do?" ”
He knows Lin Canglu too well, even if he doesn't have a sister, if he refuses today, he will definitely be retaliated against madly in the future.
"Hehe......" Lin Canglu smiled gloom.
……
Early in the morning, Jinyang Mountain.
The forbidden forest of the Lin family is located in Jinyang Mountain.
Lin Canghai rode a wildebeest beast and watched the figures of Lin Feng and the others disappear into the forest. He took a deep breath and said silently in his heart: "The ancestor blesses my Feng'er to return safely." ”
"Big brother, it's such a coincidence that you're here?" Lin Canglu laughed and walked from a distance, he glanced at the mountains and forests, and then glanced at Lin Canghai, a chill flashed in his eyes.
"Heron, don't you make a show." Lin Canghai said, "I warn you, if you dare to get half a step closer to Feng'er, the old man will make you regret it for the rest of your life!" ”
Sonorous and powerful, resolute to the extreme.
"Hehe, big brother, I'm not here to argue with you today. Look at this......" He unfolded his palm, revealing a piece of black scrap metal.
Lin Canghai glanced at it and said coldly: "What is this?" ”
"Big brother, do you remember that incident twelve years ago?" Lin Canglu seemed to smile, "That time, Zilin's smoke spear broke, and this is the smelting of that spearhead." ”
Lin Canghai frowned: "What do you mean?" ”
The battle twelve years ago was not only a pain in his heart, but also a pain that the entire Lin family could not mention. In that battle, Lin Feng lost his mother, and the Lin family lost nearly thirty percent of the elite.
"Big brother, I suggest that a meeting of family elders be convened to put this matter on the agenda again." Lin Canglu said lightly.
Lin Canghai didn't open his mouth, he turned his head to look at the Forbidden Forest, his eyes were inexplicably complicated.
