Chapter 4: Snowy Night

Ringo won.

Before this, she never knew that the competition was so happy.

After that, according to the ranking of the competition, people were selected to form a team to participate in the Daomen ceremony, Chen Ying was originally to be listed, but he is now lying in bed, and he will not get better in a few months, and it just so happens that the appearance of Lin Yi makes up for this shortcoming, and everything is fine.

Lin Yi left the celebration banquet and returned to Fudong Peak, and went to the roof of the main hall as usual.

Looking down from here, you can always see the gate of Fudo Peak, the senior brother used to take her to sit up, tell her some interesting stories about studying outside, and then this became a place she likes to stay in her spare time.

What are you thinking? Shaohua tasted a trace of her loneliness.

Lin Yi lay back and said, "I'm thinking, I was a waste a few days ago, and now I actually defeated Zhu Nanzhi, that is the amazing and gorgeous senior brother of Yangshan." ”

[It was we who defeated Zhu Nanzhi together. Shaohua emphasized.

"Yes, yes, thanks to you. Lin Yi laughed.

The sun is gradually setting, and in the dusk, a little snowflake is falling.

[It's snowing.] 】

"The first snow of the year. Lin Yi raised his hand to catch a snowflake.

"You don't seem to be happy. 】

"Snow always gives me bad memories. Lin Yi's voice trembled a little, every winter was the hardest time for her.

Lin Yi closed her eyes, the snow gradually became heavier, and there was a slight cool touch on her face, and her thoughts seemed to be pulled back to that night by snowflakes.

Midwinter wax moon.

Fudong Peak had already piled up a thick layer of snow, and a few junior disciples were clearing the snow in front of the main hall, while Lin Yi was copying books in front of the desk.

In the sixth year of Master's departure, she copied the entire book of Fudo Peak.

She is always copying books and practicing swords, trying to make up for all the laziness she stole in the past.

A disciple suddenly shouted and ran into the main hall, his face panicked, and he lost one of his shoes.

"Why are you so flustered?" Lin Yi put down the pen in his hand, greeted him, leaned over to pick up the shoes on the ground for him, and helped him put them on.

"Senior Sister Lin, the New Year's offering lights in the side hall have gone out!" The little disciple's tears suddenly remained, and he sat on the ground with his butt and cried.

Lin Yi sighed in his heart, and hurriedly stepped on the branch and flew towards the side hall.

The side hall that was supposed to be brightly lit was pitch black at this time, and the New Year's lantern, which symbolized the life of the senior brother, was emitting the last bit of smoke.

Her face turned pale, and she turned and ran out.

Senior Brother and Zhu Nanzhi went to Qizhen to punish demons together, it was just a secular town, and there would be no accidents at all.

By the time she arrived at the Creation Peak, there was already a circle of people outside the main hall.

All of them looked anxious, and when they saw Lin Yi coming, they avoided her gaze in a panic.

"What's the matter, who's back!" Lin Yi grabbed a disciple and said sharply.

"Senior Sister Lin...... Senior Brother Zhu has just been passed back. The disciple couldn't bear to say.

"My senior brother, my senior brother is back!" Lin Yi pushed him away, pulled his legs and rushed to the back room.

When the disciples guarding the door saw that it was her, they did not stop her, but let her break into the house.

There were only two people in the house, Skullcap and Kong Linghua.

Skullcap was treating Zhu Nanzhi's injuries, and Zhu Nanzhi was lying on the bed, covered in blood.

"Kotori, calm down. The first to speak was Kong Linghua, who was standing aside, and when he saw Lin Yi coming in, his eyes were full of pity.

But Lin Yi didn't want to listen to this kind of nonsense, she just wanted to know where her senior brother was.

"Sect Master, you tell me that my senior brother has returned. She grabbed Kong Linghua's sleeve, her fingers turned white, and her face begged.

"Let's take a look at this first. Kong Linghua didn't answer her, but took out a bloody photo stone from his sleeve.

All disciples who go out to punish demons will wear a photo stone to record what they have done.

Kong Linghua flipped his hand and injected spiritual power into it.

A huge picture spread out in front of them.

There was fire everywhere.

Qi Zhen has become a human purgatory.

Charred corpses, mortals struggling and wailing.

In such a purgatory-like environment, Lin Yi saw his senior brother standing in purgatory with his wide sleeves swinging, and countless talismans were shining in front of him.

Even though his back had been soaked with blood, he was still straight.

In front of the senior brother, there stood a person dressed in red with a beautiful face, and he knocked down the runes thrown by the senior brother while talking and laughing, without much effort.

Then the fingers hanging by the senior brother's side slipped blood droplets little by little.

Ringo covered his mouth to keep himself from crying.

Seeing that the talisman didn't work for him, Zhu Nanzhi wanted to draw his sword and step forward, but was stopped by his senior brother. "Nanzhi, you go first!"

"I'm afraid no one will be able to leave today. The man covered his mouth and smiled, a little charming, but his eyes were full of fierceness.

The senior brother hung his arms on the ground, and a golden pen appeared in front of him, grew larger, and rushed straight at the man.

At the same time, he was behind, and a teleportation array was completed in an instant.

A talisman came out from under the senior brother's sleeve, supported Zhu Nanzhi, and sent him into the teleportation array without saying anything.

"Senior brother!" Zhu Nanzhi shouted loudly, but he saw the man in red slash with his palm.

Before the palm wind arrived, the senior brother jumped in to block it.

In order to prevent the teleportation array from being destroyed, the senior brother used his body as a shield to block the second palm that followed.

Flesh and blood suddenly blurred the whole picture.

The picture jumped, and the brilliance dissipated.

"Li Xunyi, they ...... met the Demon Sect under the Soul Chasing Wuji - Song Yize. Kong Linghua said.

"Senior brother said that Qizhen has the best cane sugar, and he will bring me some sugar to eat when he comes back this time. Lin Yi lowered his head, tears on his face.

"Xiao Yi ......" Kong Linghua sighed, raised his hand and wanted to caress the top of Lin Yi's head, but Lin Yi took a step back.

At this time, the skullcap who was casting a spell for Zhu Nanzhi on the side of the bed shouted. "Minami is awake. ”

Lin Yi walked over quickly and stared fiercely at Zhu Nanzhi, who had just opened his eyes on the sickbed.

"One leaf ......" Zhu Nanzhi only spit out two words and passed out again.

And then later.

When Zhu Nanzhi recuperated, he couldn't remember what happened at all.

Zhu Nanzhi has changed his personality since then, he knows the sea and is half ruined, and it took a long, long time to raise it.

By the time he was well raised, Ringo had already avoided him.

Cowardly as me, Lin thought to himself.

knows who the enemy is, but because of his own incompetence, he can't raise his sword against him, and instead hates an innocent person who is implicated.

[Ringo, what are you thinking?]

Shaohua's voice pulled Lin Yi's thoughts back all at once.

In the moonlight, a thin layer of snow had accumulated on her body.

Lin Ye sighed and dusted off the snowflakes on his body. "I'm thinking, I didn't expect that now I really have the ability to avenge my senior brother, and I don't know if Song Yi has improved his cultivation over the years. ”

[Hack him with me!]

"I'm afraid I won't be able to beat it. Lin Yi laughed. "Of course, it's not that you're bad, it's just that I'm worried about my own abilities. ”

[You're almost at the peak of your infant now, what's so scary?]

"That's with your help. Lin sat up.

She saw someone waving at the mountain gate.

Lin Yi rolled over and got off the roof and flew over.

"What are you doing here at such a late hour?" Lin Ye stood still, looking at him with his arms crossed.

It was Zhu Nanzhi's junior brother who came, Ling Xiangwan.

He hooked two jugs of wine with the tips of his fingers and shook them in front of Lin Yi. "Congratulations to you, I have something to do down the mountain during the day, and it's a pity to miss your wonderful competition. ”

Lin Yi took a pot and walked back with him.

The snow on the ground was shallow, and the two of them stepped on the snow and walked to the small pavilion on the side of the main hall.

Raising his hand to light the stove in the pavilion, Lin Yi preempted Ling Xiang one step later.

He raised his eyebrows and glanced at Ringo, this kind of thing usually comes by himself.

"What?" Lin Yi sat aside, unsealed the wine, and poured a sip from his head.

"Nothing, it feels like you've changed. Ling Xiangwan sat on the other side thoughtfully.

"What has become. Lin looked at him.

"It's getting more energetic, that's a good thing. Ling Xiangwan grinned.

The two of them drank together.

After a while, Ling Xiangwan spoke: "I'm not just here to drink with you today. ”

"I see. Lin Yi held the flask and waited for him to finish.

Chen Xuanji knew that something would happen to the Daomen Grand Ceremony, so he deliberately provoked, and even arranged for his son to continue to provoke the next day. Ling Xiangwan said.

"What's going on?" Lin Yi wondered.

Ling Xiangwan took a booklet out of his arms and threw it to Lin Yi.

Taking it with both hands and spreading it out, Lin Yi had a general understanding.

On the booklet is the investigation book flowing out of the Sumeru Hall of Zhenbei Peak, which is in charge of investigating everything in Yangshan, it seems that Kong Linghua has long been suspicious of him, and he urgently sent someone to check on the day of the competition.

"At the beginning of this year, the Demon Sect Protector Zhonglu took his disciples to find the spiritual power fluctuations of the small world of Yiye in the south of Qishan, and took the opportunity to track down Yiye's location and tried to sneak in. Ling Xiangwan said.

Of course, he didn't manage to sneak in, and while he tried to tear open the seal, the old ancestor of Qingshan killed him. ”

Before he could finish speaking, Lin Yi said, "It doesn't seem like a big problem. ”

"Here's the crux of the matter. Ling Xiangwan raised his head, raised his sleeve and wiped it, and continued.

"These things investigated by Zhenbeifeng don't seem to be any problems, even if Zhonglu really goes in, he won't be afraid to this point. ”

"So there is something Zhenbeifeng that has not been investigated, but Chen Xuanji knows. Lin took his words.

"Yes. Ling Xiangwan leaned on the armrest of the pavilion and looked up at the moon outside the pavilion. But he didn't say it, and the more he remained silent, the more dangerous it was. ”

"There must be a bloody storm in the Daomen ceremony," Ling Xiangwan looked back at her, ...... said.

"Why are you worried about me? Lin Ye saw his concern.

"If you don't want to go, I can go and ask Master. Ling Xiangwan said.

"Am I willing to take my turn? The treasure of the mountain is in my hands, and this heavy responsibility cannot be easily abandoned. Lin Yi shook his head.

"You have never been out of Yangshan, and as soon as you go out, you will have to face such an unknown danger......" Ling Xiangwan's words were not finished.

His worries were real, Lin Yi had always been well protected, and with the intentional protection of the master, she didn't need to go out to study, nor did she need to go out to punish demons by exception.

"But now that Shaohua is in my hands, you can't embarrass the sect master. Lin Ye dismissed him. "It's good to go out and take a look outside, besides, with you and Senior Brother Zhu protecting me, what can happen to me?"

"It is inevitable to protect you, but ....." Ling Xiangwan scratched his head.

Ringo interrupted him, "But what but, no but." ”

She paused and sat up straight, "And I also defeated Senior Brother Zhu today, you should believe in my current ability." ”

It seemed that as long as he said he didn't believe it, Ringo would be able to jump over and hit him.

Ling Xiangwan leaned back helplessly and poured a sip of wine: "Okay, I believe in you." ”

[When the mountains come, I will split, and when the water comes, I will cut them.] Shaohua suddenly cooperated and shouted a bold word.

Lin Ye smiled.

"Okay, okay, I can't talk about you. Ling Xiangwan shook his empty flask and raised his feet to get up.

"Senior Brother Ling let me. Lin Yi said with a smile.

Ling Xiangwan leaned over and rubbed her head, rubbing the crown of her hair.

"Eh, eh, tap. Lin Lean leaned back.

"Gone. Ling waved his hand to the night.

"I don't send it. Ringo leaned on the railing and watched.

In the moonlight, his figure faded away and disappeared.

Only a few footprints on the snow remain.

"Is this an opportunity given to me by the Heavenly Dao?" Lin Yi rested his chin on the railing.

【What?】

"Give me a chance to find out the truth. "Ringo's wine has been drunk, but she can't be sober.

[If you ask me, of course I think so.] 】

"Give a blind man a pair of eyes, give a pair of legs to a broken leg, give me a peerless sword, heaven is impermanent. Lin Yi raised his hand to touch his face, tears raining down.

If you say that your previous self was suffering from your own weakness and inability, you can't get married, and you are tormented, entangled, and hopeless all day long.

So now she has become a primordial baby overnight, and she already has the ability to hold a sword.

It's nice not to numb yourself anymore.

Lin Yi sighed.

Since that snowy night, Lin Ye has not been out of the mountains to see anyone.

Day after day, she began to practice swords in the stone forest.

Because she understands that with the help of Shaohua, no matter how hard she cultivates, she will not cultivate by herself after all, and if she wants to go well on this road, she must integrate it herself.

And Ling Xiangwan, that night he took advantage of the wine to return to the Creation Peak, and with a big tongue, he told his senior brother that he was going to be angry and strong, and when he arrived at the Daomen ceremony, he would definitely protect Senior Sister Xiaolin.

As a result, when I woke up the next day, I forgot to clean it first.

But his good brother has always been serious, so he really supervises his practice every day.

By the time spring came, Ling Xiangwan had already been stripped of his skin.
