Chapter 2: The Hunt
Lin Yang opened his eyes in a daze and found that he was lying on the carriage, and as soon as he wanted to get up, a suffocating pain immediately came from his chest, which made him moan uncontrollably.
"Phew."
The driver obviously heard Lin Yang's moaning, and immediately stopped the carriage, and immediately, the curtain was opened, and Lin Siyuan, who was haggard and tired, came in.
"Yangyang, you're awake, thank God!" Lin Siyuan held Lin Yang's hand tightly, tears in his eyes.
"Grandpa, I'm fine, don't worry. Where are we going? Lin Yang looked at Lin Siyuan with both distress and self-reproach, and he clearly saw that Lin Siyuan's hair was originally just gray and now snow-white.
"Leave the Lin family, leave Xian'an City, grandpa wants to take you far away, so that they can no longer hurt you." Lin Siyuan touched Lin Yang's head lovingly.
"I'm sorry, grandpa, it's all my fault, it's me who has caused you a burden." Thinking of the scene where Lin Siyuan knelt on the spot in the hall, Lin Yang's tears couldn't stop flowing out, and he couldn't wait to slap himself.
"Yangyang, it's all over. As long as you are good, grandpa is willing to do anything. Lin Siyuan stretched out his hand to wipe away the tears on Lin Yang's cheeks.
"Grandpa, don't worry, I must avenge this revenge, I must make them all kneel in front of you and repent to you!" Lin Yang gritted his teeth and said word by word.
Lin Siyuan said with a smile in tears: "Yangyang, as long as you have this filial piety, grandpa will be content." But Lin Tianhao is a Yuan Xiu, Lin Lang will also become a Yuan Xiu soon, and it is very likely that he will become a Yuan Xiu who is even more powerful than Lin Tianhao, even if you cultivate to the ninth rank of a martial artist, you will not be their opponent. Grandpa doesn't want you to take revenge, as long as you can live in peace for the rest of your life, grandpa will be satisfied. β
"Grandpa, didn't you also teach me that strength doesn't determine victory or defeat? It's man-made! Moreover, I still have at least one dark vein in my body, and there is still a chance to become a Yuan Xiu after all. "Lin Yang obviously didn't give up on Yuan Xiu's matter.
"Look at your stubborn temper, you still look the same as when you were a child." Lin Siyuan saw Lin Yang's resolute attitude, so he stopped persuading, because no matter how much he persuaded him, it was in vain.
"Grandpa, has the Liu family divorced?" Lin Yang hesitated for a moment, and finally said the words that he had held in his heart. After he fell unconscious that day, he had no idea what was happening. In his heart, he still has illusions about Lyupiya.
After relying on each other for many years, Lin Siyuan didn't know Lin Yang's thoughts, he originally planned to wait for Lin Yang to recover for a while, but thinking that the long pain was better than the short pain, he sighed and said, "The Liu family broke off the marriage contract with you, and immediately let Liu Feiya and Lin Lang get engaged." β
"Fia? Lin Lang? Lin Yang didn't believe his ears at all, but he knew that it must be true, Lin Lang and Liu Feiya would both be able to become Yuan Xiu, and they would be more compatible and reasonable together.
"Yangyang, you want to open a little, but it's just a woman, you are still young, there is no grass at the end of the world." Lin Siyuan tried to enlighten.
"Grandpa, I want to be alone." Lin Yang let go of Lin Siyuan's hand.
"Okay, you haven't recovered from your injuries yet, you need to rest." Lin Siyuan shook his head and got out of the carriage, and soon, the carriage began to bump again.
β¦β¦
Forty miles in the eastern suburbs of Xianyang City, there is a dangerous cliff, and the people of Xian'an call it the Broken Soul Cliff.
In the afterglow of the setting sun, the one-armed old man raised his whip and drove the carriage forward quickly, trying to pass the Broken Soul Cliff before dark.
Suddenly, the carriage that had reached the middle of the Broken Soul Cliff came to a halt suddenly, and a dozen or so black-clothed men wearing cloaks and unable to see their faces clearly blocked the way.
When I turned back again, the retreat from the rear was also intercepted.
"Yangyang." Lin Siyuan called in a low voice, wanting to remind Lin Yang, but Lin Yang took the first step to lift the curtain, endured the pain all over his body, and came behind him.
Lin Siyuan frowned, and said in a deep voice: "These people are not good, I will rush out of the passage later, and you will break through on horseback first." β
"Grandpa, let's go together, I won't leave you and run away alone." Where would Lin Yang agree.
"Obedient, Yangyang, according to your current injury, staying here will only become a drag on me, believe grandpa, grandpa will be fine. Although grandpa is crippled, he used to be a seventh-grade martial artist, and the idle people can't hurt grandpa. Lin Siyuan quietly unloaded the carriage from the horse as he spoke.
Lin Siyuan is right, Lin Yang is not to mention making a move now, I'm afraid it will be a little difficult to even ride a horse, and his stay here will only drag Lin Siyuan down.
"Grandpa, you must be careful." At the moment of the great enemy, Lin Yang figured out the stakes, so he stopped being a mother-in-law, and hurriedly prepared, as long as his grandfather launched, he would ride a horse to break through.
"Let's go!" Lin Siyuan suddenly shouted, and the whole person took off from the carriage, and then swooped down like an eagle predatoring, rushing straight to the front to block the enemy.
Lin Siyuan looks like an old dragon clock on weekdays, and when he moves his hand, his movements are fast and powerful, and his momentum is compelling, where can he still see half of his old age, although he only has one arm left, but as soon as he landed, he swung his fist like rain, and blasted three people away one after another.
Lin Yang's movements were not slow, and at the moment when Lin Siyuan flew to the ground, he jumped on the horse's back, clamped the horse's belly, galloped out, and rushed out of the encirclement like an arrow.
"Grandpa, you must not be fine." The violent jolting on the horse's back continued to trigger Lin Yang's injuries, and he gritted his teeth to endure the pain that made him faint, and kept galloping his horse.
After about a cup of tea, Lin Yang finally saw the end of the Broken Soul Cliff, as long as he got out of the Broken Soul Cliff, it would be difficult for those cloaked people to block him again.
But at this moment, the sound of breaking wind sounded from behind him, and Lin Yang subconsciously turned to the side, and the inch-long dart that flashed with cold light almost shot past his neck. At the same time, the horses under Lin Yang raised their heads and screamed, and then fell headlong, and there were several more blood holes the size of copper coins and blood gushing straight out between their chests and abdomen.
If it were in normal times, Lin Yang would have a hundred ways to get off the horse's back unscathed. But now that he was seriously injured, although Lin Yang had tried his best, he still fell to the ground with the horse and let the horse squirt all over his body.
Lin Yang struggled to get up from the ground, only to see two people with black cloaks appear in front of him. One of them was carrying a corpse on his shoulder, and looking at his face, it was Lin Siyuan.
"Grandpa!" Lin Yang shouted loudly, his eyes were broken.
"I'm going to kill you!" Lin Yang rushed towards the two of them desperately, but before he could take two steps, he felt that his legs were weak, he stumbled under his feet, and fell to the ground again.
The cloaked man carrying the corpse had a tall and thin figure, he threw the corpse on the ground casually, and then stepped forward quickly, without waiting for Lin Yang to struggle to get up, he stepped on Lin Yang's chest with one foot, and said coldly: "Kill me?" Lin Yang, look at yourself, you are not even as good as a lost dog now! Ha ha! β
"It's you! You brute, I'm going to kill you, I'm going to kill you! βγ Lin Yang struggled desperately, but he couldn't break free.
Lin Yang's identity has been recognized, Lin Lang simply took off his cloak, he looked down at Lin Yang, and laughed wildly: "Lin Yang, when you trampled me under your feet that day, did you ever think that you would have today?" Do you know that after that day, I swear that I will trample you under my feet, that I will ruin you, that I will take everything from you, of your glory, of your family, and of course your fiancΓ©e! Ha ha! β
In addition, the man also took off his cloak, and he was the great elder of the Lin family.
"Lang'er, don't delay, send him down to be with Lin Siyuan!" The Great Elder feared that something would happen later.
"Lin Tianfang, Lin Lang, your grandfather and grandson are waiting for me, I swear, even if I am a ghost, I will not let you go!" Lin Yang suddenly stopped struggling, and looked at Great Elder Lin Tianfang and Lin Lang with eyes like knives.
Looking at Lin Yang's eyes as sharp as knives, Lin Lang unconsciously turned his head away and didn't dare to look at him. As if he was aware of the cowardice in his heart, a fierce light appeared in Lin Lang's eyes, and the sword on his waist was instantly unsheathed.
Lin Yang seemed to have been waiting for this moment for a long time, and at the moment when the sword was unsheathed, he used all his strength to stand up from the ground, and then smashed a fist into Lin Lang's chest.
Lin Lang was stunned by this change, and even forgot to take action to defend. Lin Tianfang, who was still on the side, dodged over and waved his palm to block Lin Yang's fist.
"Not good!" The moment his palm touched his fist, Lin Tianfang exclaimed in surprise, because Lin Yang's fist strength was first and retreated, and its purpose was not to attack Lin Lang at all.
But by the time Lin Tian put back the taste, Lin Yang had already used his palm power to fly out a few feet away, and he actually fell directly off the deep cliff.
Lin Tianfang and Lin Lang hurried to the edge of the cliff, but where could they still see half a trace of Lin Yang.
"Grandpa, you don't need to worry, the Broken Soul Cliff is unfathomable, and Lin Yang is seriously injured, unless there are immortals to save him, otherwise, he will not survive even if he has nine lives." Lin Lang saw Lin Tianfang frowning and looking at the dark deep cliff, and said hatefully: "It's just to let him die cheaper!" β
β¦β¦
"Hey, hey, kid, you won't burp like this, right?"
"It's really bad luck to get home, why do you have such a useless guy?"
"It's over, it's over, did I really disappear so silently? I'm not reconciled! β
"Boy, boy, you're waking up, I can't hold on for long."
"Hey, hey, hey, it's over, my old seal has really come to the world for nothing."
β¦β¦
"Who? Who's talking? β
Lin Yang was in a drowsiness, he kept hearing someone chattering in his ear, he wanted to see who it was, but he always felt that there was a layer of gauze hanging in front of him, and he couldn't see it really.
"Haha, boy, you're finally awake, thief, you're not completely blind after all!"
The chattering voice was particularly obvious this time, especially real, Lin Yang suddenly lifted the curtain, and his eyes suddenly opened up.
The white sky, the white sea, everything is white, Lin Yang looked around, not knowing where he was.
"Boy, don't look strange, this is your sea of knowledge, a barren sea of knowledge, nothing to look at." A chattering voice came from above Lin Yang's head.
Lin Yang looked up and saw a dim humanoid phantom floating in the air, and from the vaguely reputable eyebrows and eyes of the phantom, it could be seen that he was an old man with a broad face, a long beard, and a big gourd tied around his waist.
"Don't ask me what Zhihai is, I don't have time to explain it to you. Boy, don't talk, just listen well. The phantom spoke quickly.
Lin Yang clearly saw that the already dim phantom was becoming fainter and weaker at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"Boy, you were tested to be a cultivation waste with only one dark vein, and then you were humiliated and expelled from the family, and you were divorced by your fiancΓ©e in public, what a tragic word in this life experience! This is a dignified Zhongzhou giant, yesterday was still blowing wind and rain, but today everyone betrayed their relatives and left their relatives, and ended up with a dead end, which is also a tragic word is not enough to describe; When I met you, it was even more miserable! Since we are so miserable, I will give you a great opportunity today! The Phantom paused at this point, and continued, "That's all for the opening remarks, now put your ears up and listen to me carefully." I'm the owner of the Drunken Moon Building in Zhongzhou, of course, you must not have heard of it, so I won't continue. Now I'm going to pass you two things, the Trina and the Mystery. β
Speaking of this, Feng Chaiyue stopped, took off the gourd on his waist, sent the gourd mouth straight to his mouth, and then asked: "Boy, don't you ask what Tianhe Hulu and "Mystery Formula" are?" β
"Senior, didn't you let me speak?" Lin Yang was a little speechless.
"Did I say anything like that?" Feng Chaiyue's tone was a little surprised, and then he said with some displeasure: "Boy, there is only a wisp of remnant soul left in this seat now, and it won't last long, don't interrupt me all the time!" β
Talking, talking, Feng Chaiyue stumbled in the air, like a drunk person, and almost fell.
Lin Yang couldn't cry or laugh.
"Don't laugh, I'm not drunk, I'm not drunk." After Feng Chaiyue stabilized his figure, with a wave of his hand, he sent a green, palm-sized gourd to Lin Yang.
"This is the Tianhe Hu, whether it is a waste pill or a finished pill, as long as you have enough of the same pill in your hand, it can give you a synthesis upgrade. The level of this alchemy may not be as good as that of a first-rank Dan master, but the only nine-rank Dan master on the Tianyuan Continent is the deity, relying on the Tianhe Hu! Feng Chaiyue was obviously a little proud.
"Synthesis upgrade elixir?" Lin Yang was both shocked and a little skeptical, but listened to Feng Chaiyue continue: "A dark vein can't become Yuan Xiu? In the eyes of others, it is indeed a wise saying. But for you who have a Tianhe, it's a big joke. The probability of activating the dark veins is indeed very low for those clumsy alchemists to refine the single-patterned Living Vein Pills, but what if the quality is higher, double-patterned, three-patterned, or even four-patterned Living Vein Pills? Activate the Dark Vein! Boy, when you meet me, you have accumulated thousands of lifetimes of virtue, not to mention that you still have a dark vein, even if you don't have half a vein, I can make you a Yuan Xiu. β
Feng Chaiyue said as he spoke, not only did the person float, but his mouth also floated, but fortunately, he quickly realized this, and quickly changed the topic, and sent a book to Lin Yang, saying: "This exercise is called "Mystery Technique", although it can't cultivate Yuan Force, but it is definitely the top technique for treasure hunting and escaping, even if you take out a heaven-level exercise, this seat will not change." β
"What? You don't believe it? The deity can make a great foundation in Zhongzhou, and "Lost Divine Formula" is indispensable! β
"Well, why don't you believe me? Forget it, let's be honest with you, I do have a lot of cultivation exercises, but I can't give them to you, because once you cultivate, Zuiyue Lou will definitely find you soon, with your current strength, there will be no accidents, and the result is only one word: death! β
β¦β¦
"Senior, I didn't say I didn't believe you!" Lin Yang finally couldn't help but say something.
"Since you believe me, why didn't you say it earlier?" Feng Chaiyue said angrily: "Knowing that my time is running out, I still waste my time to explain in vain." β
Lin Yang hurriedly silenced himself and didn't dare to speak again, because the remnant soul of Feng Chasing the Moon that was floating in mid-air was now so thin that only a thin veil remained, as if as long as a light breeze came, it could blow him away.
For no reason, Lin Yang felt panicked in his heart.
From the pulse measurement to the present, in less than three days, Lin Yang, who fell from the altar to the dust, has seen enough ugly human nature and the hot and cold world, and has lost his grandfather who depends on each other. In such a miserable situation, only a wisp of remnant soul remained, and Feng Chaiyue, who seemed to be drunk and crazy, made Lin Yang feel the precious sincerity and love.
"Boy, in fact, it is not a blessing to be an ordinary person if you can't become a Yuan Xiu. It's just that you and I can meet, because you are destined not to live a dull life. The Tianhe gourd fell into my hand, which is a pearl, and I hope it can shine in your hands. β
Feng Chaiyue changed his previous chatter and became serious: "Tianhe Hu is an innate true treasure, you must not let anyone know about its existence, otherwise, your end will still be a death." Whether I give you a chance or a source of murder depends on your own creation. β
"Senpai, what can I do for you?" Lin Yang saw that Feng Chasing Moon's face was blurred, and knew that Feng Chasing Moon's remnant soul was about to dissipate.
"It's a conscientious boy, after all, God didn't completely abandon me to chase the moon." Feng Chaiyue smiled happily and said, "Boy, don't think about how to repay this seat first, what you have to do now is to let yourself survive first." β
Before the words could be completely spoken, the phantom in mid-air dispersed, and in the blink of an eye, there was no trace of it, as if he had never existed.
