Chapter 279: Shen Lao
Chapter 279: Shen Lao
Before the bald head moved, the scholar suddenly stepped forward.
Syllable!
The scholar kicked Leylin in the lower abdomen. The kick was fast, hard, and accurate, and in an instant, it kicked Lei Lin several feet away, smashed several trees, and smashed up a large area of snow.
This foot is not ordinarily heavy, although Lei Lin used the Yuan Force to protect his body in time, he only felt that his internal organs seemed to be broken into countless pieces, his throat was slightly sweet, and a trace of fishy blood flowed from the corners of his mouth, and he had already suffered internal injuries.
This scholar is so ruthless!
Without looking at Lei Lin, who was curled up in the snow in pain, the scholar picked up a dead branch and wrote four big characters on the ground.
The four big characters are square, one stroke at a time, very similar to the common characters on the Divine Desolate Continent, but they are obviously different. These four big characters, the Fire Wing Technique, were written in a script called "Chinese characters" that Lei Lin knew in his previous life
After the scholar finished writing, he asked Lei Lin coldly: "Do you know these four words?"
Looking at the scholar's gaze full of cold murderous intent, Lei Lin's heart sank.
This scholar and bald head are both experienced old rivers and lakes, and their methods are fierce and vicious, and it seems that it is useless to pretend to be stupid in front of them except to suffer more from flesh and skin. In addition, if you are of no value to them, you will undoubtedly be killed.
In the current situation, I can only show a little value first, delay the time, and casually figure out the purpose of the two, and make plans.
Thinking of this, Lei Lin gritted his teeth helplessly and nodded.
Seeing this, the scholar and the bald head glanced at each other. Ecstasy appeared on his face at the same time. The scholar was still not at ease, and wrote a few other "Chinese characters" on the ground with dry branches for Lei Lin to identify, and Lei Lin recognized them one by one.
The scholar and the bald head had no doubts now. Excitedly, he began to talk with the technique of "transmitting sound into the secret".
The scholar said: "Brother He, I didn't expect to be met by us who completely understands this kind of writing, God really helps us!
The bald head sighed: "I thought that this hard-won high-level yuan technique would become a useless thing, so it's okay." It's not in vain that I've been hiding and hiding for so long!Brother Leng, time is limited, let this kid translate as soon as possible!"
The scholar said: "It's okay." We are hiding in this remote area, and the enemy will not be looking for it for the time being, so there will be some time. Originally, I was going to scramble the words of the secret. Let this kid translate word by word, now it seems that we don't have so much time, just let this kid read the cheats and translate it completely. Hum. I'll take his life when I'm done translating!"
The bald head agreed: "What Brother Leng said is extremely true. It's a seamless arrangement that completely erases the traces and doesn't expose us. Hmph, it's just a pity that the little ghost is ignorant, and he will lose his life in a few days!
Lei Lin naturally couldn't hear the conversation between the scholar and the bald head, but when he saw that the bald head and the scholar had cold faces, they were jumping and jumping. He knew that the two were uneasy and well-intentioned, and must be talking about something bad for him.
Leylin remained silent about it. Pretending to be extremely frightened, his body trembled slightly.
After a while, the scholar stepped forward, took out a delicately packaged hand-copied book from his bosom, threw it to Lei Lin and said, "Listen, boy, a friend of ours needs a translation of this secret, and we originally planned to translate it ourselves, but since you know this kind of writing, we don't bother to translate it ourselves." You do the work on your behalf, translate it completely, and as long as you do a good job, not only will we not treat you badly, but we will reward you heavily!
Too lazy to translate? won't do anything to me? Lei Lin couldn't help but sneer a few times in his heart. Such nonsense, if it is a simple-minded person, maybe he will believe it, Lei Lin not only will not believe it, but he is 100% sure that once his value is exhausted, he will usher in murder and extermination. In other words, the day the secret is translated will be the day of his death.
In terms of expression, Lei Lin didn't show any words, still pretending to be scared, and stammered and asked, "As long as I finish translating, ...... Can you really let me go?"
"Of course!
The bald head was anxious, afraid of Lei Lin's suspicion, so he jumped out first, patted his chest and said, "Someone in my river is a famous man, how can he deceive you, a little boy!"
The scholar also said: "Don't worry, as long as you meet our requirements, we will not only not let you go, but also give you a heavy reward!" The scholar said, wiping a money bag from his waist and shaking it, only to hear the sound of "clanging" coins, which is indeed a lot of money.
Seeing the two of them pretending, Lei Lin sneered a few times again in his heart, but said with a surprised expression: "Okay! I promised to help you!"
Hearing this, both the scholar and the bald head were overjoyed, and the two of them glanced at each other, and both had a smug and cold smile on their faces, as if to say, this stupid boy has taken the bait!
The scholar was still not at ease, and said half-admonishing, half-threatening: "It's good to agree!" But don't think about cutting corners and getting by, every day after you finish translating, we have to check it again. If you find a typo, hehe, we'll cut off a piece of your flesh, and if you find a mistake, hehe, we'll cut off one of your hands and feet!
Lei Lin pretended to be afraid, his face was as pale as white paper, and he nodded tremblingly......
......
After that, the scholar and the bald head temporarily took up residence in this inaccessible dense forest and snow, and Lei Lin was coerced by the two to start translating the "Art of Fire Wings" every day.
The scholar and the bald head seemed to have been prepared, and in the Qiankun bag they carried, there were a large number of pens, papers, ink, etc., which were enough for Lei Lin to finish writing a few books.
The scholar and the bald head would not be completely at ease with Lei Lin, and every day one of them took turns to monitor Lei Lin's translation, and the other to hunt wild beasts, prepare food, etc.
Yuan Xiu's need for grains is less than that of ordinary people, and his ability to open grains has also increased with the growth of strength, but Lei Lin's strength is weak, and he still has to eat every day, while the two scholars only need to eat some food for ten days and a half months.
Therefore, it is a matter of hunting and preparing food every day. On the contrary, it is specially prepared for Leylin. It can also be seen that the scholar and the bald head attach great importance to this translation.
Lei Lin knew this, and when he was forced to do so, he had to pretend to work hard to translate. Flipping through the Art of Fire Wings and transcribing the translated text on a blank sheet of paper. He knew that the end of his life would be the end of the book when he finished translating it, so he naturally refused to be completely dedicated, and while he was in a good manner, he tried his best to delay the translation time.
Lei Lin was not sure if the scholar and the bald man really understood "Chinese characters", and when he tried to translate, he deliberately made some mistakes. Even wrote the opposite, but every night after the scholar and the bald head took away the translated manuscript for inspection, in addition to the uncontrollable laughter. Except for secretly running to cultivate, he couldn't find Lei Lin's hands and feet at all.
At this time, Lei Lin was sure to be relieved, he was completely sure that the scholar and the bald head didn't know anything about "Chinese characters" at all. He can blatantly manipulate it.
Thereupon. On the one hand, Lei Lin used the reason that this kind of writing was ancient and jerky, and that it was difficult to translate, and so on, he forced the eager and ugly faces of the scholar and the bald head to minimize the translation speed, but in the translation, he secretly translated some meanings wrongly, reversed some sentences, and even deliberately translated the direction of Yuan Li's movement in the meridians in some places.
With these hands and feet that Lei Lin moved, he wouldn't find any problems when he started cultivating. But as the cultivation deepened, after a while. It will cause damage to the cultivator, and when it is cast, there will be a danger of reversal of the meridians, and even go mad and die.
The scholar and the bald head have no good intentions towards Lei Lin, and Lei Lin naturally will not show mercy to his subordinates.
And so it went on for several days.
On this day, Lei Lin was transcribing the translated sentence, thinking about how to make the meaning of the sentence reversed, but he couldn't see the flaw, when a voice suddenly came from Lei Lin's head: "Is this really the Art of Fire Wings?"
Leylin was so startled that he almost jumped up from the snow. Fortunately, his mind was extremely clear, and at the critical moment, he froze his body and did not let the bald head who monitored him find anything abnormal.
"Who!
Lei Lin quickly reacted, and the person who was talking to him was definitely not a living person beside him, and he only shouted in his heart.
A sigh came from his mind again, and then a somewhat dry voice said slowly, "Do you remember the old man in black who died under your knife?"
Lei Lin's heart was shocked, and he immediately remembered the old man in black who was killed by him in the cave that day.
However, the head of the old man in black was cut off by him, how could he still talk to him?
Surprised, Lei Lin asked in his heart, "You...... How do you ......"
The mysterious voice seemed to see Lei Lin's doubts, and sighed and said: "To be exact, I am indeed dead, my body has been slashed by you, but my soul is still alive, and I will be reborn in the blood ball in your Qiankun bag......"
The soul is still alive!?
Leylin was taken aback. He had never heard of such a soul still alive!
However, since coming to this Divine Desolate Continent, Lei Lin has discovered many things that he has never heard of or thought about before, so his nerves are tough enough when he encounters any strange things.
Leylin frowned calmly, and asked in his heart, "Why are you telling me this, aren't you afraid that I will destroy that blood ball and let you die completely?"
The mysterious voice smiled openly: "I let you know that I exist, and told me that I exist in that blood cell because I need your help." And with your current ability, you can't destroy this blood cell. ”
Hearing this, Lei Lin snorted coldly and said in his heart, "Why should I help you?"
The mysterious voice laughed: "Even if you are in danger now, there is no way to escape." ”
After a pause, the mysterious voice said again: "Don't worry, although you killed my body, I don't resent you, because the end of that body has already arrived." I have no ill will towards you, I just want to make a deal with you, and we will take what we need. ”
Lei Lin hesitated for a moment, but felt that the mysterious voice made sense.
At this time, there is really no way for him to escape the palm of the scholar and the bald head, and when the secret book is translated, the scholar and the bald head will definitely kill him to keep the secret.
In that case, it may not be impossible to cooperate with this mysterious voice!
Thinking like this, Lei Lin said in his heart: "Then how are we going to trade, and how are we going to take what we need?"
The mysterious voice said, "It's simple. I just want to reshape a physical body, you need to help me gather some materials and prepare a great body for me, and you, you can get a lot of knowledge and guidance from me. I've lived for hundreds of years, and I have more knowledge and experience than you can imagine. Not only can I help you escape this catastrophe, but I can also help you stride forward at a faster pace on the path of Yuan Cultivation in the future!"
It has to be said that the conditions of this mysterious sound are extremely tempting.
Lei Lin frowned, thinking that he really had no other choice at this time, so he nodded and said, "Okay! I agreed to this deal!"
The mysterious voice seemed to have expected this, and said in a calm tone: "That's fine...... Let's start by introducing ourselves. My surname is Shen, and my single name is a common character. You can call me Shen Lao in the future. ”
Lei Lin nodded quietly, and said briefly in his heart: "My name is Lei Lin." ”
The mysterious voice said, "Well, Leylin, since we have made a deal, let's solve the trouble you are facing first." ”
Leylin thought to himself, "Do you have a way to deal with these two, or can you kill them yourself?"
The mysterious voice said helplessly: "I'm just a soul body, and I don't have the slightest combat power." Think about it, if I had the ability to kill them, would you still be intact now?"
Although Shen Lao didn't like what he said, Lei Lin nodded approvingly, and said in his heart: "Then what can you do?"
Shen Lao's voice paused, and after a little thought, he said, "Lei Lin, don't you know what the Fire Wing Art means to you?"
"Hmm, is this meta-technique very powerful?"
Lei Lin has only been in the Divine Desolate Continent for about two years, and he has just walked out of the forest in the area of Xingshui Village, he is very unfamiliar with the outside world, and he has never heard of any information about the "Fire Wing Technique", and his translation progress is very slow, and he only knows the name of this meta-technique for the time being. At this time, hearing what Shen Lao said, he couldn't help but be interested.
It seemed that Lei Lin's performance made Shen Lao a little helpless, his voice coughed dryly, and explained: "How powerful is this Yuan Technique, it is a flying Yuan Technique that countless Yuan cultivators have dreamed of, and its rarity is better than many Heavenly and Earth Treasures that are almost extinct!
"So powerful?"
This time, Lei Lin was really surprised.
Lei Lin actually thought that this meta-technique must be of a very high level and very powerful, because if this is not the case, there is no reason for scholars and bald heads to attach so much importance to this meta-technique. But he didn't expect this meta-technique to be so powerful and so rare!(To be continued......
