Chapter 9 Distress on the Road
The moonlight of the Mid-Autumn Festival was extraordinarily clear, Xi Xi helped Yun Niang simply clean up the messy clothes, and then took Yun Niang to the Su family's old house for a temporary stay for one night according to Lin Weiran's instructions. At this time, in front of the ancestral temple of the Lin family, there was only a pile of tattered brushes and paper that was splashed with color, and two young girls with four eyes facing each other.
Lin Dixiu's face was full of shock, but he was still half-convinced in his heart, raised his arrogant chin and said: "Even if Senior Brother has the heart to let you cultivate immortals, Shui Jian Tianshan will not accept you as a waste that is hindered in cultivating immortals." β
His Royal Highness the Crown Prince not only did not blame Lin Weiran for slandering his reputation, but was willing to let Lin Weiran go of this shameless act, was it actually to protect this waste? Did he even come here for Lin Weiran just to make this waste her junior sister? So, Helian Ci really came here for this matter, right?
Lin Diexiu's heart was already mixed at this time, she specially avoided her mother to come to the ancestral temple, originally just to enjoy the moon with Helian Ci on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, but she didn't expect to meet Yun Niang in the ancestral temple, then she naturally had to take the opportunity to play, otherwise they really thought that they were still members of the Lin family?
"Oh, is it?" Lin Dixiu was obviously a little anxious, just enough for the unscrupulous Lin Weiran to catch her heart.
"Even if they are willing to turn a blind eye, then you have to ask your elders who are willing to accept the Tianshan Mountains if their beloved disciple is a skinless dead man, right?" Lin Weiran watched the plant pigments she had worked so hard to toss destroyed by Lin Die's embroidery in this way, and strengthened her belief in going to cultivate immortals, but she was also naΓ―ve, in such an environment, how could she stay out of the matter, since she came here, she was pushed step by step by some people to embark on this road of cultivating immortals, she has been unavoidable. "See you in the Tianshan Mountains, senior sister. β
"Ai Disciple, this is impossible, how could the elders take a fancy to this waste?" Lin Diexiu muttered to himself, however, the man had already pulled Yun Niang and walked away, holding the sword in his hand tightly, the two curved eyebrows were pressed quite tortuously, and a sword angrily slashed towards the pile of broken things, stirring up a burst of spells, and the things drawn were divided into two, and he gritted his teeth and withdrew the sword in his hand, "I definitely won't, let you reach the Shuijie Tianshan Mountain alive." β
After the Mid-Autumn Festival, the disciples of the Water Connection Tianshan had to rush back to the Water Connection Tianshan Mountain, and after Lin Weiran settled Yun Niang and Xixi, he took the wooden sign of the Water Connection Tianshan Mountain and arranged by his father to rush to the Water Connection Tianshan Mountain with the coachman near the Lin family's ancestral temple.
Lin Weiran in the carriage seemed to remember something, lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked at the coachman who was driving straight outside, and asked: "Uncle Lin, since you expected that Lin Dixiu would drive us out of the ancestral temple early in the morning, why didn't we live in that small courtyard at first?"
On the night of August 15, they spent a very difficult night in the old house of the Su family, and the three of them stayed together, looking at the burning firewood, and did not dare to let the wind blow it out, because the eerie and terrifying aura here made them extremely afraid, for fear that a fierce beast would come out in the next moment and treat them as food for their stomachs.
Yun Niang also felt sorry for her, handed the moon cake she had been holding to Lin Weiran's hand, touched her head and said, "Xiao Ran, taste it." β
It was supposed to be a festive festival for the members, but they were forced to come to the dilapidated old mansion of the Su family to spend the night, so on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the three of them spent the wonderful atmosphere of eating a piece of moon cake.
Knowing that in the early morning of the next day, the coachman of the Lin Family Ancestral Temple, who had brought them all the way from Fengzhu Villa, came over and took them to a small courtyard, which was full of items, and at a glance they knew that they had been prepared for a long time.
The coachman smiled and glanced sideways at Lin Weiran inside while setting up the carriage, and then continued to drive forward, and said with a smile: "That courtyard was a few months ago, and the master secretly asked me to come and settle it properly. β
"Sure enough, you and your father are planning to make us suffer a lot of bullying, and finally have to compromise with his old man's conditions for cultivating immortals in exchange for silver money for food, right?" Lin Weiran threw back the curtain in his hand, shook his head with the shaking of the carriage, and snorted very disdainfully, "But, didn't he forget that we can support ourselves?"
"Second Miss, you really surprised the master, if it weren't for the eldest lady coming to make trouble, I'm afraid you would have instigated Yun Niang to make sweets and sell them, right?" Uncle Lin really admired the business acumen of the second lady, although he didn't make much money, but he could indeed solve the problem of their food and clothing, plus they were already simple and accustomed to Fengzhu Villa, and they didn't need those overly gorgeous items, so this little money is estimated to have a surplus.
"Uncle Lin, you only guessed the result correctly, but you will be wrong about the reason. On Lin Weiran's cute and clever face, a pair of eyes like small beasts were full of revenge, "The reason why I decided to cultivate immortals is to have the ability to fight to the death when facing demons one day, rather than waiting for death to come." β
Moreover, only if she has the magic can she protect herself in this other world, as well as protect the people she cherishes. Ye Qingchen has a sentence that is very right, as long as you want to live in the Ruiguang Continent, you can only cultivate immortals, otherwise a little demon will make her originally comforting life collapse in an instant. And what Lin Dixiu did was just to make her more determined to cultivate immortals after she decided.
Second Miss, she really lived up to the master's expectations of you, Uncle Lin outside the curtain was very pleased, raised his horse and spurred the horse to drive forward quickly.
"Huh" Uncle Lin quickly tightened the reins, and the horse that pulled the cart raised its hooves and screamed in pain.
"What's wrong?" Lin Weiran in the carriage knew that Uncle Lin would not stop for no reason, and opened the curtain of the car to check the situation outside, only to see five black-clothed people blocking the only way on this path, although it was still daylight, there was a white mist in the forest on the side, and the fog made it impossible to see what was waiting for them on this road.
The man in black didn't say much, he took the sword in his hand and slashed directly at the carriage, with a clear target at Lin Weiran, who had just opened the curtain in the carriage, Uncle Lin quickly pulled out a big knife from under the carriage with his backhand, and with a "sonorous" sound, the knife cut by the man in black in front of him was reversed, and one jumped onto the roof of the carriage, and slashed the heart of the man in black who jumped with a big knife with a spell, and the man vomited blood and died.
Uncle Lin can also spell, no wonder his father wanted to send Uncle Lin to escort them to the Lin family ancestral temple, Uncle Lin can be described as the "old man" of Fengzhu Villa, I heard that since the master mother accepted Fengzhu Villa, she replaced a lot of his father's right-hand man, Uncle Lin because he usually does not show much magic, and the people in the house are slowly changing to know less and less about him, except for knowing that he is the person next to the owner of Fengzhu Villa, I don't know anything about other deeds. But this person behind the scenes seems to know a lot about Uncle Lin's strength, and specially sent three black-clothed people with unknown spells to intercept and kill, and in order to hide people's eyes, they actually sent two ordinary people who seemed to only be able to do light skills to disturb people's eyes, so she dared to conclude that this person behind the scenes must be a person who is very familiar with the situation of Lin Mansion if he is not a person from the Lin Mansion.
"Second Miss, you go first. Uncle Lin withdrew the big knife that went out, and hit the horse's ass with a two-finger condensation spell with one hand.
Lin Weiran knew Uncle Lin's plan very well, even if he died in battle, he would protect her, but she still couldn't adapt to such a self-sacrificing loyalty in her heart, and good people always had good rewards in her, instead of being buried in this deep mountain and old forest so easily, becoming something that beasts gnawed, watching innocent people die in vain for themselves, she couldn't do it. She was obviously in a hurry, and she couldn't take care of it anymore so she shouted: "Let's go together, Uncle Lin, I can't ......"
"Whoa......" Lin Weiran in the carriage hit his head because of the shaking, and the horse outside screamed in pain and pouted his buttocks, spread his legs and ran straight ahead, and at the moment when the horse ran away, Uncle Lin also jumped off the roof of the car.
"The wooden sign will guide you to the Water Jie Tianshan Mountain, Second Miss, you go quickly. β
The horse ran forward desperately, Lin Weiran didn't care about the pain in his head, held the carriage with one hand and lifted the curtain with the other, and poked his head out to look behind. I saw that the remaining three men in black were well-trained to chase her side, but Uncle Lin blocked the three men in black with a clear goal with his own strength.
Just when he thought that he could easily deal with these three ordinary people who could only do a little light work, the three of them instantly jumped away and surrounded the people from behind from three sides, gathered their two fingers on their chests and drew a charm, and after a while, they pointed the charm between their fingers at Uncle Lin at the same time, and the three rays of light gathered at the same time, forming an incomparably sharp strong wind array, such a strong wind looked quite similar to the tricks of the six-line wind bird.
"No, don't...... Uncle Lin. She watched Uncle Lin being swept off his clothes and flesh by the wind in the gust of wind, which was much more cruel than any torture she had ever heard, and the anger after seeing it with her own eyes was even stronger, a pair of eyes stared at the increasingly blurred scene behind it, only to see Uncle Lin use all his last spell to throw it out, and the sword of the big knife nailed a man in black to the ground.
"Oh no, why did you fall for it. The man in black on the side reacted, withdrew the spell in his hand and jumped out of the circle in time, this person did not hesitate to gamble with his own life to lure the three of them into the magic circle he set up, as long as they activated the magic circle, the person in front of him could use the magic circle to keep them for a moment, so that he had the opportunity to catch them all, "In order to maintain a girl who is not used to it, do you not hesitate to endure the pain of a hurricane and die with us?"
Uncle Lin hugged the man in black in front of him, and his bloody feet circled the man in black, and pinched the throat of the man in black with his hand that was cut to white bones.
"Save ...... Help...... "The man in black who was strangled by the neck stared at his companion tightly, and when he was trying to use the spell, he was pierced in the throat by a claw of the hand that only had bones left, Uncle Lin grabbed the hand bones of the man in black and pinched the man's neck without hesitation, and the bright red blood sprayed on the top of the bone, and the bones stained with blood looked fierce and terrifying.
His face, which had been shaved to the point of only one eyeball, turned sideways to look at the only man in black who had escaped from the circle, and the bones that could only grin silently bite up and down, as if to say, "You should also die for me", and on the smoke-filled road, only this person was left with a "bone" staring at each other silently, but under the calm surface was bloody and cruel.
