Chapter Thirty-Nine: The Confusion of Demon Alchemy
The "Iron Heart" furnace of the Heavy Refining Villa will never be extinguished, and at this time, there are still countless sparks floating in the furnace, floating in the night sky, like fireflies, like stars.
Beside the fire, an old man with a whole body of fluorescent blue put his hands behind his back, looking up at the sky, his old face was full of ravines, and his deep eyes were full of the rich depression of the sea.
"Senior Jin," Lin Yi walked up to him and sighed, "Why are you still sad?"
The peacock chirped and turned into a colorful feather bird and flew into the night sky, as if he didn't like the heat here.
The old man remained motionless, as if he had not noticed him at all.
Lin Yi had no choice but to shout: "Jin Xuanjue!"
The old man trembled slightly, and finally turned his head slowly, and said suspiciously, "I'm Jin Xuanjue?"
"yes. Lin Yi stretched out his hand to his forehead and said, "You've been standing here for more than ten years, think about it!"
The old man's expression was still calm, and the starry light contained in his eyes was even deeper.
"I see. He took a light breath and said, "I'm dead." ”
Lin Yi said in a low voice: "You poured molten iron with your blood and threw yourself into the furnace, and the last work finally burned." What is the resentment of martyrdom and seeking kindness?"
"Grievances? Do you mean the old man, because he has grievances, so he can't be at peace?" Jin Xuan was stunned and said: "Chaowen Dao, it's okay to die at night, what's the grievance?"
He didn't even understand it.
This kind of aftermath is probably the most troublesome.
Fortunately, after a period of silence, he smiled bitterly, shook his head and sighed: "Yes, there is a grudge, it turns out that even if the old man dies, he doesn't want to admit it......"
"I don't want to admit that the avenue I see when I enter the furnace doesn't seem to be real. ”
"I don't want to admit it, I have been crazy all my life, and I realized my mistake a moment before I died. ”
Lin Yi frowned and said, "You have forged countless divine weapons in your life, and you have completed the work of a true master, how can it be a mistake?"
"Not a mistake. Jin Xuanjue shook his head, "It's a little doubt, a little regret." ”
"How can a person's life be complete? The road to seeking the Tao is vast and endless, and it is lucky to see a leopard, so why should you be obsessed?"
"It turned out to be someone who came to give me a ride. Jin Xuanjue sighed, and said in a gloomy voice: "I don't want to embarrass you, but there is one thing, if you don't complete it, it will always be difficult to let go." ”
"Senior, please speak. ”
"At the last moment of stepping onto the avenue, there was a sudden panic, a fear of whether it was going in the wrong direction from the beginning, which I had never thought about until then. The old man lingered here, pondered for a long time, and finally realized that this life is over, even if it is wrong, there is only one way forward. ”
"There is only one work that remains unfinished, and it is still difficult to let go. ”
Lin Yi asked, "It turns out that the dragon pupil is not your last work?"
Jin Xuanjue nodded, as if he remembered something in his deep eyes, there was a hint of relief and pleasure, "It was just a random work, and it was abandoned halfway, but it was the only glimmer that appeared when I fell into the final sea of fear." ”
"That sword doesn't have a name yet, it's tentatively called the sword key, and when it's done, I'll be able to go. ”
"Sword key ......" Lin Yi read this strange name, shook his head and said: "Senior, I don't know how to smelt weapons, how can this sword also be your work, isn't it something that can be completed by learning a little casually, right?"
Jin Xuanjue smiled slightly: "There is only one person in the Refinery Mountain Villa who can help you, and that is Jin Chenzhi." ”
Jin Chenzhi?
That drunken and gentlemanly third son, Jin Chenzhi?
When the "demon refining" in front of him died, Jin Chenzhi was not yet ten years old, and he must not have known that his third grandson was no longer smelting.
In any case, now is not the time to disturb him with more mundane things.
He is dead, and he should no longer know about the things of the world.
For him, Jin Chenzhi will only be the child who is not yet ten years old.
After wandering up and down the mountain villa for a long time, he finally found the guy.
It was already the afternoon of the next day.
Relying on the peacock to fly up a towering cliff and climb over a rugged mountain rock with no road, there are a few pieces of fertile soil paved in the cracks of the mountain, blooming with sparse and elegant flowers of various colors.
He was dressed in a luxurious black robe, a row of golden buttons, leaning on a bamboo chair, looking at the drawing board in front of him with a lazy face, and the long pen in his hand waved casually and occasionally.
The brothers and sisters of the Jin family are all characters with outstanding appearance and extraordinary bearing. The eldest son, Chenkong, had a slightly sad face. The second son, Chen Yi, was a little ruthless. The eldest lady Chen Meng is an outstanding beauty, but she is too thin and cold.
And Jin Chenzhi is undoubtedly the one with the best inheritance. The eyebrows and facial features are almost flawless, and he is extremely handsome.
Only the delicate pupils were bloodshot, and the eyes were slightly swollen, looking like waking up from a hangover, lifeless.
Lin Yi climbed a boulder with his hands and feet, passed through the soil planted with flowers, and gradually walked in front of him.
Jin Chenzhi acted as if he had never seen him, and his eyes didn't move.
"Third Young Master. Lin Yi walked a few meters in front of him and stopped, and bowed his hand with a full courtesy.
The mountain wind swept up the black sand, and after a long silence, Jin Chenzhi stretched out his hand and waved a stroke on the canvas.
I still didn't see him.
Lin Yi decided to get straight to the point and said with a smile: "I want to ask you to help me refine a weapon." ”
Jin Chenzhi's body stiffened slightly, and his eyes finally glanced at him extremely impatiently, and said lightly: "Get out." ”
Lin Yi took a few steps forward and said, "If you don't finish a work, you can't leave the villa, right?"
"I said. ”
"Stay here, how many beautiful scenery can you see, and how many beauties can you befriend?"
"Hmph. Jin Chenzhi sneered, stretched out his hand and swept another stroke on the canvas, "The old man has long given up using house rules to restrain me." ”
Lin Yi had already walked to his side, and from a distance, he could see the seemingly sloppy lines of various colors on the canvas, and he painted the black rock flowers on the top of the mountain, and the vast grass and clouds to life.
In the center of the canvas, however, there is a large patch of white, as if the main body of the painting is missing.
"But you still want to smelt yourself, right?"
"I'll kick you down if you talk too much!"
"Third Young Master!"
A childish voice sounded in the distance.
Jin Chenzhi's eyes finally had a little more brilliance, and he shouted, "It's too slow!"
"You're so hard to climb here...... it turned out to be the little monk, holding a wooden plate full of food in one hand and a wine jug in the other.
He climbed here with the help of a peacock, how did this little guy get up?
Jin Chenzhi snatched the wine jug, raised his head and took a big sip, and the spilled wine beads fell on the canvas so casually.
The little monk put the wooden board with a few side dishes on the ground, looked up at Lin Yi and smiled: "Young Master Lin, the view here is not bad." ”
"Relieved little master. Lin Yi nodded and said, "I didn't expect you to have a good relationship with the third son." ”
The little monk looked at Jin Chenzhi, who was drinking with his head up, and sighed and said, "I want to invite him to walk with me." There are thousands of magnificent wonders in the world, and the words of the little monk are limited, if he paints a few works, it must be a beautiful thing. ”
"It's a really good idea. Lin Yi muttered: "But his paintings have a lot of blanks, and they always seem to be missing a soul." ”
Relieved nodded: "The little monk thinks so too. It should be the ambivalence about the way of refining weapons that made him lose the core spirit. ”
"Hey, I'm still here!" Jin Chenzhi finally couldn't hold it back and scolded: "Lao Tzu, this blank space is ready to draw a beauty!"
As if he suddenly remembered something, his eyes flashed, and he said, "Third Young Master, you don't know each other, this is Lin Yilin's son." ”
"I don't care what he is!"
"From the Tang family's three halls. ”
"What?"
Jin Chenzhi's brush fell to the ground.
Lin Yi was stunned and hadn't reacted yet. Jin Chenzhi had already stood up, grabbed his shoulders with both hands, and said in surprise: "You are really from the third hall of the Tang Sect?"
"yes. ”
Jin Chenzhi's eyes lit up and said: "The rumored No. 1 beauty Tang Xuesui in Yunzhou, do you also know it?"
Shi Ran smiled beside him and said: "It was the handwritten letter of the third lady that asked Lin Gongzi for a position in the Sword Society." ”
"Hahahaha, long up, long up!" Jin Chenzhi sneered, completely lost the look of rejecting people thousands of miles away just now, "It's really a big flood that washed the Dragon King Temple, where don't we meet at the end of the world, our two brothers don't know each other today, let's go! Let's go to the town to play! Little monk, you just look at the scenery here!"
As he spoke, he pulled Lin Yi down the mountain.
Lin Yi was speechless for a while, so he had no choice but to walk forward from him, turned his head and asked, "Isn't the little master going different?"
"Hey!" Jin Chenzhi shook his head and smiled vaguely at him: "He's not an adult yet, what are you going to do!"
Relieved, he smiled and said, "The two of you walk slowly." ”
In this way, he ran all the way back to the villa, and went down the stone steps.
