Chapter 14: Escape from Death
Ren Cheng has known this truth since he was a child, but he knows that if he practices his internal strength step by step, he is afraid that he will not be able to get through the second line of Ren Du and become a peerless master in this life. He pondered how he could practice for a while more every day, and soon he came up with a method of cultivation other than sitting and lying down, even when he was walking and standing, he could practice internal strength. But even so, I still feel that it will take decades to open up the second pulse of Rendu, so I thought, since the dantian can store internal force, why can't it give birth to internal force? He knew that such thoughts were strange, and that his father had died at the time, and that there was no one to discuss with him, so he had been thinking about it alone, and in those days he was a little like a madman, and his mother and his sister of several years were worried. Later, I thought that after all, internal force is born in the body, not from air, food, and moisture, which means that people themselves have internal force, or have the "raw materials" to generate internal force. Even if all the world's rivers dry up and wither, the boundless ocean will not be shallow.
After figuring out this truth, he thought hard about how to stimulate the innate internal force in the sea of qi, and over time, it really made him successful, and this method was written. Of course, ordinary martial arts practitioners don't think like him at all, let alone make that kind of attempt, and even if they do, they may not be able to think of the correct method like Ren Cheng, so he only focuses on the mind, not the method. If you can't understand that kind of divine will, no matter how clear you say, it may not be useful.
Although Lin Yin wrote down the whole book word by word, he couldn't understand half of it at all, not only because of his shallow cultivation knowledge, but also because of various other factors, just like a swordsman may not know how to forge and smelt a good sword, Ren Chengcheng is like that top forger, and he is a first-class swordsman. Ren Cheng knew that even if Lin Yin could comprehend one or two points in the future, it would be enough to laugh at the rivers and lakes and walk alone in the martial arts. As for whether he will create his own stunt after comprehending, there is no doubt that it will come easily.
After another two days, the sun was shining outside the cave, and there was no voice, Ren Cheng's spirit was very good this day, and he didn't let people help him stand up after lying down for a few days. Ren Yue and the others were also happy, and after a few days of haze, the little girl chattered around her brother non-stop. Ren Cheng touched her hair, called Lin Yin over again, smiled at the two and asked, "What are your plans in the future?" ”
Ren Yue hugged his brother, but Lin Yin was stunned, knowing that Ren Cheng was afraid that he was going to confess his last words, he didn't know how to answer, and his eyes were red. Ren Cheng smiled again: "You two don't have any relatives, you have to support each other and grow up well, you know?" ”
Lin Yin didn't dare to look at Ren Cheng, lowered his head and let the swirling tears fall to the ground, and then instantly seeped into the soil, nodding desperately. Ren Yue smiled, smiled and smiled, and the three of them had red eyes together, and no one spoke again.
Reluctantly, this little girl grew up watching by herself; Reluctantly, I like to twitter around me since I was a child; Reluctantly, after the death of their parents, the two depended on each other and lived and died together. Without herself, what should she do, where can she go, how to grow up and get married.
After a long time, Lin Yin wiped her tears and said, "Big brother, don't worry, how can I protect Ren Yue, cherish her, keep her happy and safe, and don't let bad people bully." ”
Hearing this, Ren Cheng bent down to look at Lin Yin's eyes, and said with relief: "Man, you must be strong." No matter how small the tiger is, as long as it grows up, it is the king of beasts. No matter how strong the cattle and sheep are, they can only tremble and be frightened when they see the tiger, and they are waiting to die. Big brother hopes that you can be a tiger to protect yourself and Yue'er. Lin Yin nodded heavily.
Ren Cheng looked at it, walked to the entrance of the cave, stood against the cave wall, looked at the lush trees outside the cave, and the sunlight turned into spots through the gaps between the branches and leaves, and suddenly sighed: "It would be great if I could go home." ”
Ren Yue listened and glanced at Lin Yin, who happened to be looking at her as well. looked at his brother's back again, and said softly: "Let's go home and see if my parents are okay." Lin Yin also continued: "Xiaoyue often says that your house is very fun, and I want to go and see it too, let's go, shall we?" ”
Ren Cheng was still leaning against the cave wall, but he didn't speak.
"Brother?"
"Big brother?"
Ren Yue suddenly felt that something was broken in her heart, and in an instant, the whole world became dark, scared, numb, cold, and all kinds of tastes surrounded her; It's like falling into icy water in winter, my hands and feet are twitching, I want to paddle, but I feel colder. Lin Yin knew that it was not good, and he was about to walk over to see Ren Cheng, but he heard Ren Yue say slowly: "My brother is tired, take a rest, take a rest and we will go back to Jianmen's hometown, Lin Yin, don't quarrel with him, don't quarrel with my brother." She turned her head and walked towards the cave, without looking at Ren Cheng, and muttered: "I'm also sleepy, I feel so cold, it's okay to make a fire, I want to sleep for a while." He didn't care about Lin Yin, who was at a loss, and fell straight to the ground, and after a while, he seemed to be really asleep. At this time, it was not yet the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the scorching heat outside had not subsided, but Lin Yin only felt cold all over his body, and his mind was at a loss. He walked to the entrance of the cave and stood side by side with Ren Cheng, but he didn't have the slightest courage to see Ren Cheng, Ren Cheng was dead, really dead, and he could no longer protect them, teach them martial arts, and tell them to be good people. He didn't dare to look at them, as if he didn't look at them after a while.
The sun set and the moon rose, and the dappled moonlight shone through the dense trees, sprinkled on Ren Cheng's body little by little, and sprinkled under Lin Yin's feet. Ren Yue didn't know when he opened his eyes, and his bright eyes looked at his brother at the entrance of the cave, as well as Lin Yin next to him.
I don't know how long I watched it, Ren Yue said: "Lin Yin, I'm going to take my brother home, are you with us?" The voice was unusually calm, without the slightest sadness.
"Huh?" Lin Yin turned his head, as if inexplicable, looked at Ren Yue and said, "That's natural, let's leave tomorrow morning." After thinking about it, he said, "Xiaoyue, if you are sad, just cry for a while." ”
Ren Yue stopped him, and said, "Don't cry, crying will make my brother worry, I'm not a little girl, why should I cry?" ”
Lin Yin nodded, didn't know how to answer, stood for a long time, lowered his head and said: "It seems to be a long way from here to your house, and the weather is hot, I'm afraid that Brother Ren's body won't be able to support it." Ren Cheng died and he was also hurt and painful, but he was still much more sober and clear than Ren Yue.
"Is my brother really gone?" Ren Yue didn't answer Lin Yin, her thin body trembled, and she slowly squatted on the ground with her hands on her shoulders, talking to herself.
"Xiaoyue." Lin Yin shouted softly, gritting his teeth.
"It's okay, I'm fine, you can figure it out, I'm okay."
Lin Yin suddenly cried: "Xiaoyue, you wait for me, I'll go out for a while." After saying that, he rushed out without looking back. Ren Yue wanted to call him, but didn't speak.
When it was almost dawn, Lin Yin returned to the cave. At this time, the moonlight could no longer reach the entrance of the cave, only a little starlight. Ren Yue hugged the cold Ren Cheng, buried his head in his chest, and remained motionless.
Lin Yin was frightened and shouted, "Xiao Yue? Ren Yue didn't move, he screamed a few more times. He couldn't help himself from thinking too much, tremblingly raised his right hand to pull Ren Yue's shoulder, Ren Yue suddenly raised his head and said lightly: "What's the matter, is it dawn?" ”
"Thank goodness." Ren Chengxin said. Seeing that Ren Yue was fine, he whispered, "Shall we cremate the eldest brother?" It's easy to take him home. Afraid that Ren Yue would not agree, his voice was unusually low.
Ren Yue yawned and said, "Okay, let's go find firewood." Suddenly, he turned his head to look at Lin Yin and said, "Have you gone to look for firewood and wood at night?" Lin Yin nodded.
Ren Yue actually smiled slightly and said, "Thank you." "I went to hug Ren Cheng again, Lin Yin wanted to grab it, but she stopped her.
The small Ren Yue hugged the tall Ren Cheng, followed Lin Yin out of the cave, and stopped after walking for less than half a mile. There is a square platform piled up of wood branches in the open space, the square platform is not big, it is not neat, the firewood branches are green and yellow, but it is enough for Ren Cheng, who is tall and tall, to lie down completely.
After placing Ren Cheng's body, Ren Yue took Lin Yin's hand covered with wounds and smiled. Lin Yin smeared and picked up a lot of branches and wood last night, and he had no tools.
The flames rising from the firewood gradually separated Ren Cheng from the two. The two knelt side by side in front of the fire, watching the flames encroach little by little, devouring Ren Cheng, both of them were expressionless, and they didn't cry or speak.
Ren Yue's heart was empty, she was still young when her father died, and when her mother left, everything was Ren Cheng's cooking, she only remembered that she was very sad and sad, but it was not like now, so empty, not only in her heart, but also in the whole world. Is it better to mourn than to die in your heart, is your heart dead?
Ren Yue knelt for a long time, thinking about it for a while, and then thinking about nothing. By the time the world became clear again, the sky was already bright, and I saw Lin Yin holding a cloth bag wrapped in something, and that cloth was his coat.
Ren Yue swayed and stood up, knelt for a long time, couldn't stand steadily, and hurriedly supported Lin Yin. Lin Yin breathed a sigh of relief and said in a low voice: "We all burn like this when we are old. ”
Ren Yue nodded and said, "Thank you." ”
Lin Yin sighed again, feeling that Ren Yue had grown up a lot overnight, and asked, "Shall we go down the mountain now?" Although I asked her, I thought that she had no idea.
Ren Yue took the package in Lin Yin's hand, sat down against a big tree, and didn't care about the little dew on the grass under the tree, and said softly: "I'm so tired, let's take a rest." Lin Yin sat side by side with her on the ground.
As soon as I sat down, I suddenly heard someone walking towards this side and shouting, "I saw smoke here at the bottom of the mountain just now, it must be here." Then I heard someone else stop me.
Ren Yue and Lin Yin looked at each other, and they all stood up and ran towards the cave. When he was about to reach the entrance of the cave, Lin Yin found that there were also people over there, and he was busy pulling Ren Yue to lie on the ground, and Ren Yue also saw it. The two of them gently moved to the grass on one side, it was just autumn, and the bushes in the woods were overgrown with weeds, and they hid in a low-lying place, where the shrubs were most lush.
Soon, I heard someone shouting, there was a meadow where someone had sat on the trail and there was no trace of it, and the two little ghosts had not gone far, and everyone scattered to search. The two of them were frightened, remorseful and brainy, and they did not dare to run at the moment, but they were also worried about being discovered, and they both prayed in their hearts. Lin Yin held Ren Yue's hand tightly, as smooth and greasy as holding a small fish, I don't know if it was sweat or blood.
