Chapter Twenty-Four: The Storm
Going south along the southeast coastline, the wind and waves were calm for several days, and they arrived in Taizhou ten days later. Lin Yin first saw that the sea was very fresh, and after a few days, it was no longer fresh, so he practiced in the cabin all day long. Qing Yuzi saw it in his eyes and often admonished his disciples with this.
Docking in a small town in Taizhou, everyone planned to rest for a day before boarding the ship and setting off. When I stayed at night, I heard someone say that there was a red and blue glow here the day before yesterday, and I was afraid that a hurricane was coming. The Qionghua faction is not far from the sea, and although hurricanes are uncommon, they often occur once a year or two. Qing Yuzi's master and apprentice knew the power of the hurricane, and they were both glad that they were just on the shore to rest at this time.
Sure enough, in the middle of the night, the east wind gradually rose, the initial wind was slightly calm, and gradually the wind and waves increased, and by midnight, it was already a strong wind, and the rain was like a note. Lin Yin was lying on the inn bed, only to feel that if the wind was stronger, the inn built of stone and wood would be swept away by the wind. He had never seen such a storm and rain, and he heard the waves crashing on the shore in the distance, like a thunderous earthquake, and he was a little frightened.
"Alas, I don't know if they will be scared tonight, it's so scary." Lin Yin thought again: "They have always lived by the sea, they should be used to seeing them; No, I can't be afraid, it's too embarrassing. The fear could not be suppressed, and Lin Yin didn't understand why he was so afraid of the storm, this was still inside the house, if it was outside, and even if it was still floating on the boat at the moment, wouldn't it be to faint with fright. The wind and rain became more and more frenzied, and Lin Yin's fear and fear became heavier and heavier. Finally, a bold idea came to him: go out and have a look.
Once a thought is born, it will be indelible, and Lin Yin herself was also taken aback by this thought: "The wind is so strong outside, won't it away?" But like an evil spirit, he couldn't resist the urge to go out, tossed and turned for a long time, but still got up, picked up his double swords, and quietly went out. (OCD, hahaha)
As soon as he arrived outside the house, he felt that the wind was raging, and the thin Lin Yin felt that the whole person was going to be blown up; The torrential rain carried by the strong wind immediately made him wet and shivered. In mid-May, the coast is already a little hot, so although it is stormy, it is not cold, but slightly cooler.
"Hell, what am I going to do!" However, Lin Yin did not return to the inn and continued to walk towards the coastline. Not far from the mountains, there is a pair of stone towers, on which the butter lamps are burned, through the wind and rain, the lights are very dim. Lin Yin walked towards the sea against the strong wind, and the closer he got to the sea, the louder the sound of the waves crashing on the shore, as if thousands of giant beasts were roaring.
Less than a mile away from the sea, Lin Yin stopped, the sea in front of him was pitch black, neither the water nor the sky could be seen, only the loudest and most shocking sound between heaven and earth, rumbling.
Seeing the most primitive power in heaven and earth roaring and raging, Lin Yin suddenly felt the insignificance of manpower: "Even if Brother Ren jumps into the raging sea at this time, it will be difficult to escape." "The hurricane swept up the waves, and the maximum height could be more than ten zhang, and the forest sound could not be seen in the dark, otherwise it would be even more shocking. Lin Yin remembered that when he was a child, he threw a few small insects into a small puddle, and then turned the water into a wave with his hand, watching the insects rise and fall in the "turbulent waves"; I think I'm afraid that between heaven and earth, there is also a giant with incomparable divine power, playing with this boundless sea.
Gritting his teeth, he moved closer to the sea, and the salty water splashed by the waves on the shore was already able to hit him, making it even colder. After walking a few steps closer, he suddenly heard the sound of the waves, and a huge wave smashed on Lin Yin's body, he was unprepared, and was suddenly slapped back a few feet, and sat on the ground heavily, and for a while he had some palpitations and shortness of breath.
"Oh, that's amazing." The young Lin Yin was aroused by this sudden huge wave, and fearlessly advanced dozens of steps, and he could already step on the sea.
"No, I have to stand firm, in case I get involved, I'm afraid I'll be over...... "Luck is enough, take root in the ground, and wait for the next wave to come. But at this time, it seemed that the wind was calming, the huge waves were forming waves, and after waiting for a while, there were no big waves, Lin Yin was a little deflated, so he collected his true anger and stood in the water at will.
As if he was joking with him that day, as soon as he collected his internal strength, he listened to the sound of the waves, and before he had time to settle down, another wave of huge waves knocked him out. Lin Yin smashed the meat, Venus slammed around, and scolded angrily: "Thief Heaven and Thief Sea, bully your grandfather, I am." He got up again, walked to his original position and stood still, and howled: "Come on, come on, fight with grandpa, and see who is great." This time he gathered his breath and waited for another big wave.
Living up to his intentions, he waited for a while, and finally heard the wind blowing again, and the sea roared like thunder, and the roar was getting closer and closer. Although it was dark and difficult to see, Lin Yin still knew that the huge waves that were coming this time were more fierce and tyrannical than the previous ones. He turned his qi into the sea, his internal force spread throughout his body, and his feet were as long as iron casting on the ground, waiting for the raging waves.
The huge waves are getting closer and closer, and the water splashing on Lin Yin's body is getting more and more; Soon, he could sense the crushing coldness of the breath: the waves were about to hit him.
First, a cold air pressure passed through Lin Yin's body, and after less than a thousandth of a blink of an eye, a wall of water slammed into Lin Yin's body. The water wall is not as soft and malleable as water, it is like a tangible and tangible object, Lin Yin was hit by the water wall as if he was pressed by Mount Tai, the skin was **, and the bones seemed to be crushed, even so, he still gritted his teeth and went down, and his body was not swept back by the huge waves for half a minute. He felt that his mouth and nose had been shaken and bleeding, but he did not dare to relax, because another huge wave followed the previous wave.
The second wave was slightly less powerful, and Lin Yin carried it, and his body still did not move. He found that the power of Lang Tao was no less than that of an ordinary martial arts master, and he could carry it down, purely relying on the crazy operation of the Qi Sea Cave Seed Internal Force Ball, and constantly supporting the limbs and hundreds of bones to resist.
"Ahaha, it's comfortable." Although the whole body was aching and bleeding from the mouth and nose, I felt very happy. Over the past two years, all kinds of unhappiness and grievances, life and death tribulations, have drifted away with the waves hitting the waves bit by bit.
After that, the waves were wave after wave, and they kept forging Lin Yin. The Qi Sea Cave began to boil, and Ren Du's second vein seemed to be opening again. Half a year ago, Lin Yin forcibly opened the second vein of Rendu, but after half an hour's effort, the meridians suffered a lot of damage, and even for a few days, he couldn't even use his internal strength. Therefore, this time he didn't dare to impact Ren Du's second pulse too much, and he left at the touch of a button, and only tried a few times.
After a while, the wind and waves gradually calmed down, and Lin Yin was exhausted, so he stepped back a little, lay on the ground, and gasped for breath. "It's more tiring than fighting, and I won't be able to bear it for a few more waves." The Qi Sea Cave gradually stabilized, and Lin Yin only felt that the whole body was extremely happy, and the meridians of the whole body seemed to have been washed with warm water, and it was warm.
Lin Yin realized: "Fighting against the giant wave just now, it seems that you can improve your internal strength. Then he thought, "It would be nice if I could practice like this regularly." It's a pity that I can't be at the beach all the time, and that kind of hurricane is not often encountered. ”
He was shaking his head and sighing, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and he thought: "The sea of qi is also a 'sea', why can't you turn up the waves?" "The Qi Sea Cave belongs to the Ren vein, and the Ren vein is also known as the "sea of yin veins", and the governor of all the yin veins. The Du Mai is the Yang Meridian of the Governor's body, and the six Yang Meridians all intersect with the Du Mai in the big vertebrae. Although the Qi Sea Cave is a Yin vein, it is also a place where the internal force of the whole body is stored and transferred, and the internal force in the Qi Sea Cave can impact the whole body like a wave, and it can be urgent or slow, not as uncontrollable as the waves. Thinking of this, Lin Yin felt that this move was a little different from the acupoint washing method that he had already realized, and it seemed unnecessary.
He fell to the sand, thinking about how to simulate the scene of fighting the waves in the meridian acupoints. It was almost dawn, and I was almost asleep, still without the slightest clue. He didn't think about it anymore, got up, patted the sand on his body, and walked towards the town inn.
Although the sky was slightly bright, the wind and rain stopped at this time, and the diligent fisherman and fishmonger had already gone out to prepare the nets for the sea; The fish collectors are in the buckets. After the hurricane, fish and shrimp are more abundant in the offshore waters, and fishermen naturally start earlier than usual. At this time, Lin Yin naturally couldn't sleep anymore, she was wet, and she couldn't sit on the inn bed anymore, so she found a chair to sit down and waited for dawn.
After dawn, Lin Yin actually fell asleep on the back of the chair until she was awakened by a knock on the door. It was Gongxi Wanwan who knocked on the door, she glanced at Lin Yin and called, "What's wrong with you?" Why is there mud and sand on the body, and it is still wet. Lin Yin grinned and said, "Maybe it's sleepwalking." Gongxi Wanwan naturally didn't believe it, and asked curiously: "Did you sneak out last night?" Lin Yin smiled, and did not deny it, Gongxi did not ask any questions in the evening, and said: "The weather is good today, we are going to go." Lin Yin nodded and followed out of the inn.
It was dawn, and after the hurricane, the streets were not devastated, but they were in chaos, and dilapidated things were everywhere. Most of the houses of coastal residents are low, and they are built of stone and wood, which is relatively strong; And last night's hurricane wasn't huge, so no houses collapsed.
After going out, Gongxi took Lin Yin to a restaurant in the evening, and the three of Qingyuzi's master and apprentice were already using breakfast. Lin Yin was a little embarrassed, said hello to Qing Yuzi, and also found a seat and sat down. After eating early, Qing Yuzi asked Lin Yin with a smile: "Lin Yin, what did you do when you went out last night?" ”
Lin Yin was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood how his actions could hide the profound Qing Yuzi, and said embarrassedly: "Last night it was windy and rainy, and the juniors were a little scared. Gongxi Wanwan and Su Yu on the side couldn't help but smile when they heard this, and said together: "I'm afraid that you will go out, it's so stupid." Qing Yuzi stopped his two disciples and said, "The more you are afraid, the more you have to face it, Lin Yin has done a good job." After being modest, Lin Yin thought to herself: "How can I have such an idea, obviously I have fallen into evil." ”
