Chapter 48: Receiving Disciples
With Lao Mo's experience and experience over the years, he can guess the general situation of things in just a few words. But he was still surprised by Lin Zhan in front of him.
"How did you come up with this at such a young age?"
"Are these things hard to think of?" Lin Zhan chuckled: "Just flip through the history books." Since the beginning of the record, there have been few such things, such things as flying birds, hiding good bows, dead cunning rabbits, and lackeys cooking? Since ancient times, there have been several powerful ministers who have achieved high merit and shocked the lord to get a good death. ”
Lin Zhan's words were not wrong. The history of the past proves this with countless bloody facts. In various stories, those families who are stronger than the Lin family and more loyal than the Lin family do not know how many of them have caused the disaster of annihilation for this reason.
"Is that why you're here?"
"No one wants to die for such a reason, and no one wants to accept such a humiliating death. I'm no exception. Lin Zhan said: "Since the other party has already made a move, he naturally has to hit the key point with one blow." And I was the easiest point to hit in their eyes, and that's when they hit me on the head. The current Lin family has no way to protect me, so I naturally have to find a way to protect myself. Although it is dangerous in this Celestial Star Forest, it is better than those invisible swords in the Empire. Here I can improve my strength as quickly as possible. ”
"You have a good reason. Lao Mo groaned: "But why do you want to distinguish yourself from the Lin family so clearly, and you have to come here by yourself?"
"If a person has no foresight, he must have near-term worries. The Lin family is not without the power to resist, but they are too severely bound by the so-called name of loyalty. For the sake of the so-called righteousness, he was willing to be suppressed but did not dare to make the slightest move. In such a situation, how could I be too close to the Lin family and tie my hands and feet. ”
"That's why you abandoned your clan power and trained and cultivated it yourself. ”
"Power, after all, is best in your own hands. Given by others and picked up on the road, there is no down-to-earth training by oneself. ”
Lin Zhan's words made Lao Mo's brows furrow. He finally understood a little now why Lin Zhan was able to burst out with such a murderous aura that destroyed the world.
The conspiracy against the Lin family in the Celestial Star Empire was undoubtedly an irritation to Lin Zhan, which should be the direct reason for Lin Zhan to come here.
Although Lin Zhan kept saying that it was for himself, as long as the Lin family was in Lin Zhan, it would definitely be fine. The Lin family can't protect Lin Zhan Zhouquan, and this is clearly an excuse. Anyway, the Lin family's power in the Heavenly Star Empire is there. Even if it really comes to the time when the fish dies and the net is broken, it can still be done to protect only one Lin Zhan and escape from danger. Therefore, Lin Zhan's purpose in doing this is not only for himself, but also for the Lin family.
Lin Zhan came here for the sake of the Lin family, but he tried his best to clear up his relationship with the Lin family, and even showed his distrust and disdain for the Lin family. Although this is suspected of being deliberate, the expression revealed does not look like a fake, which shows Lin Zhan's withdrawn and arrogant character. He tried to change the status quo of the Lin family by himself, but he didn't trust the Lin family at all, so he came out to test it alone. That's why he doesn't treat those people outside as his subordinates.
Those people outside are just the strength of the Lin family, not the strength of his Lin Zhan.
Although Lin Zhan's statement is not wrong in a sense, this extreme idea is obviously not recognized by Lao Mo. Lin Zhan may not have worked so hard not only for himself, but he is very likely to sacrifice anything that can be sacrificed in order to achieve his goals.
Lin Zhan was disdainful of the loyalty, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness that the Lin family had observed for generations, and had his own set of thoughts. This set of ideas takes Lin Zhan himself as the absolute center, making him only believe in his own strength.
The result of this is that Lin Zhan only thinks about his own planned actions, and does not care whether his actions will have any impact on others.
This may be the reason why Lin Zhan will burst out with such a murderous aura, because he believes in himself far more than he believes in others. No matter what caused Lin Zhan's current character, in Lin Zhan's eyes, anyone could be an obstacle to him.
This includes the Lin family he wants to protect.
Lin Zhan has courage, courage, perseverance, and responsibility, and his qualifications are quite good, and he is indeed a good seedling. But his heart is a little extreme, and if he is not good, he may become a demon of disaster.
Just like the guy I met at the beginning.
Thinking of the scene where that person laughed out loud in a sea of blood, Lao Mo felt a pang of regret and heartache. That person turned out to be a junior who he was very optimistic about.
Although Lin Zhan in front of him has not yet reached that point, this tendency is quite obvious.
It would be a pity to ruin such a good qualification.
Besides, Wan'er also seems to have a good impression of this kid, and it is not appropriate to let it go or get rid of Lin Zhan directly here.
Lao Mo's thoughts became a little entangled, that is, he admired Lin Zhan's courage and courage, but also disgusted Lin Zhan's thoughts. wants to let it go, but is worried that Lin Zhan may bring disaster to the world in the future. Although he also thought about getting rid of Lin Zhan, he was a little unbearable, and he was still worried about Wan'er's good impression of Lin Zhan.
If Lin Zhan was really a murderous peerless murderer, things would be easier. After Lao Mo is sure, he will definitely kill Lin Zhan mercilessly and get rid of a scourge in the world. But Lin Zhan is only a twelve or thirteen-year-old child, although his thoughts are a little extreme, he does not have any harmful behavior. Some aspects also made Lao Mo appreciate it a little.
Lao Mo looked at Lin Zhan as if he was seeing the junior who made him regret. At that time, when that person stirred up the mainland into a bloody storm, Lao Mo didn't even bother to get rid of him, let alone face Lin Zhan now.
In the end, Lao Mo sighed and said with some sighs: "When people are old, they love to think about some useless things. Originally, I just came to check it, but in the end, it turned out to be like this. If it had been in the past, why would I bother with it like this? That's it, that's it. ”
Shaking his head slightly, Lao Mo looked up at Lin Zhan: "Lin Zhan, you want to improve your strength." Now there's a great opportunity right in front of you, do you want it? ”
After thinking about it, Lao Mo finally couldn't bear to let Lin Zhan's such a good seedling be destroyed, so he moved the idea of taking Lin Zhan as an apprentice. Although Lin Zhan's thinking is a little extreme, he is still young now, and he may be able to lead him back to the right path with careful training. In case Lin Zhan really doesn't repent, he will be able to do his best to get rid of him at that time, and he can say it in conscience, and he will also give Wan'er's girl an explanation. Anyway, he had lived in seclusion in the Heavenly Star Forest for more than three hundred years, and he had nothing to do on weekdays except to grope for that ethereal Heavenly Dao origin. Although it is pure, it is still a little boring after all. At his own age, it is also interesting to accept such an apprentice.
After all, Lin Zhan's qualifications and perseverance are still quite good.
Lin Zhan naturally understood the meaning of Lao Mo's words. But Lin Zhan's reaction to this was quite strange, neither ecstatic nor sternly refused, but showed a rather incomprehensible look.
This reaction also made Lao Mo a little strange. The rich experience and experience made Lao Mo see clearly, and Lin Zhan's expression was not confused that he didn't react for a while. Rather, it was a great surprise and disbelief after fully understanding what he meant. He didn't seem to understand why he would say such a thing.
Lin Zhan's feeling now is exactly the same as when Wan'er said that she wanted to help herself, and she doesn't understand why this old Mo in front of him wants to take him as an apprentice.
Wan'er met with herself, and she only provided some basic help. And the old Mo in front of him, Lin Zhan didn't know him.
But one of them said he wanted to help him, and the other said he wanted to say that he was a disciple.
Such a result made Lin Zhan puzzled.
Lin Zhan always has to think about the cause and effect of things when he thinks about things, and when he does anything, he must think about what his purpose is in advance, and what he can get after doing this.
This is a habit that Lin Zhan has cultivated for millions of years in his previous life. It is also a reason for Lin Zhan's rapid rise in such a short period of time.
But the current Lin Zhan couldn't figure it out at all, or he couldn't find a reason for Wan'er and Lao Mo to do this.
If the Lin family pays for themselves without regrets because they are the heirs of the Lin family, then what do these two people want to help themselves for? What do they have that they are worthy of their help, and what can they get by helping themselves?
Why did two people who met in the water do this?
What these mortals were thinking, Lin Zhan didn't understand, Lin Zhan really couldn't figure it out.
