Chapter 114: See the Iron Bull Again
Mamotoko's voice was high-pitched: "It is rumored that after passing through thousands of miles of sea and passing through countless islands, you will reach a wider land, where there are more powerful countries and monarchs from all directions. What makes Lao Dao most tempting is that there are also fairy islands and spiritual mountains. On top of those immortal islands and spiritual mountains, there are elixirs to forge people's bodies and open people's minds. There are also immortals who are well versed in the way of immortality, good at turning mountains and seas, flying to the sky and the earth, and omnipotent!"
Zhen Yuanzi said that when he reached the beginning of the promotion, his eyes were shining and his spirit was flying!
"Dao Elder also believes in the immortal theory?" Lin raised his eyebrows and asked.
Zhen Yuanzi stroked his long beard and said with a smile: "The rumors may not be credible, but the rumors may not be false! Twenty years ago, Lao Dao once met a senior who traveled all over the world, and this senior personally told me that at the end of the East China Sea, although there are no immortals, there are immortal cultivators. And these transcendent people all have the ability to enter the heavens and the earth, which is comparable to the gods!"
"Could it be that senior, who has been to that place?" Lin Yi asked.
Zhen Yuanzi shook his head and smiled: "This senior has never been there either. Not to mention the vast sea area, which makes people in it and at a loss. It is the depths of the sea, the earth-shaking waves, which will knead the huge sea ship into powder in an instant. If there is no chart, no guide, no matter how hard you pour the strength of a country, you will not be able to reach the other side!"
"For the sake of a rumored country, for the sake of an immortal mountain that exists in the classics, I will do whatever it takes, and I am not afraid of a lot of hard work. In the end, maybe it's just a void. Dao Chief, do you think it's worth it?" Lin looked ahead, dappled sunlight shone down, and a shadow moved in front of him.
Zhen Yuanzi's voice was lowered: "What has my generation cultivated all my life for? The way of cultivation is to retreat, strengthen the physical body, and cultivate the mind with asceticism. The people of my generation have been extremely poor for decades, their muscles and veins are open, the entrance is open, and they have cultivated the innate body of Zhiyang, and they can be regarded as the amazing and brilliant people in the rivers and lakes, but what can they do? After a hundred years of life, a slash of loess is just a slash.
The other is to travel all over the world to find personal cause and effect. With the rumors of the Immortal Mountain, as well as the existence of the Immortal Cultivator, it is like climbing the mountain blindly at night, and suddenly seeing the dawn, who will give up the opportunity to reach the top of the peak? As for whether it was a void in the end, it doesn't matter!"
"Perseverance, the golden stone can be carved ββ!" Lin Yi nodded thoughtfully.
Zhen Yuanzi's face was overjoyed, and he said: "This is very goodββ! Lin Kid's knowledge is not bad. β
Lin Yi hurriedly shook his head and smiled: "This is not what I said."
"Could it be your master's teaching!" Zhen Yuanzi looked at Lin Yi.
Lin Yi said: "This is the teaching of a gentleman in my hometown. I just heard that the meaning of the long words was quite deep, and I felt something!"
"However, my master has also traveled the world for decades, but he has no chance to be the master today!" Lin Yi's eyes flashed with confusion.
Zhen Yuanzi smiled and said, "It's just that the future is uncertain!" Glancing at Lin Yi, he said again: "Master Ling is also a cultivator?
Seeing Zhen Yuanzi's eager eyes, Lin Yi hesitated and said softly: "The decline of the master, don't mention it!"
"Haha! I said that I have such a fate with you kid! It turns out that you and I are like-minded people! Boy, the old man has a good eye, right?" Zhen Yuanzi cocked his chin and stroked his beard, looking proud.
Lin Yi smiled silently.
......
The setting sun stretched the figures of the chariots and horses, and the chariots and horses followed the shadows of the trees that grew longer and longer.
A small city surrounded by the shade of trees, at the end of the sunset. Getting closer, the word "Xiajun" is clearly visible on the city gate.
"After 100 miles of Anzhou, it is Xia County. How is it Xiajun?" Lin Yi asked curiously.
"Hehe! Zhen Yuanzi smiled: "In ancient times, there were upper counties and lower counties. The upper county has jurisdiction over 20 counties, and the lower county has jurisdiction over 10 counties. In the early years, there were also seven or eight subordinate counties. The county town is not big, but it is an ancient city. With the passage of time, the population has migrated, and the county has been adjusted, and the county has long been withdrawn from the county. It's just that this ancient city has left its old appearance. The lower county is the lower county. No surprise!"
When the chariots and horses enter the city gate, the city bricks are hollow and eroded, the grass roots are covered with moss, the city wall is uneven, and there are traces of the vicissitudes of time and wind and frost everywhere. This county town is really an old town with a lot of years.
Entering the city, the bluestone streets under your feet are full of potholes. The houses on both sides of the street also have a quaint look. The archway gatehouse, the restaurant inn, but also readily available, from time to time shouting sounds, provoked the disciples of the Tianlong faction, looking around non-stop.
The group was led by the disciples of the Tiger Jiaotang and came to an inn.
Under the eaves of the inn's gatehouse, a string of lanterns has been lit. The words "Gaosheng Inn" swayed in the wind.
The carriage and horses entered the backyard, and the people of Hujiaotang took their men and worked quickly. In the blink of an eye, the carriage was unloaded, the livestock entered the stable, and the people of these Tiger Jiaotang divided their manpower to guard the hospital door and take on the duty of guarding.
Lin Yi stood aside with his hands on his sleeves and shook his head with a wry smile. I didn't expect that I, the driver, had nothing to do.
Looking at these Tiger Jiaotang disciples, their expressions were vigilant, and after a while, they had surrounded the front and back of the inn, and Lin Yi knew it in his heart. The purpose of these people is to open the way along the way, guard halfway, and keep vigil at night. In this way, the inner disciples of the Tianlong Sect did not need to be distracted by trivial matters, and even his own coachman also benefited a lot.
Seeing that everyone else had gone to the restaurant in front, Zhenyuanzi's master and apprentice also ran away, and Lin Yi also walked to the front.
The hall under the restaurant is noisy, pushing the cup and changing the lamp, shouting five and drinking six, which is very lively. Lin smiled and looked around, but he didn't see anyone from the Heavenly Dragon Sect. He couldn't help but scratch his head, he was in the wrong place?
Looking back, the carriage and horses were still parked in the backyard, where did these people go? The divine consciousness quietly extended, and went up the stairs, and everything on the second floor was in full view. The corners of Lin Yi's mouth curled, and he was also making a fuss, the people from the Tianlong Sect were all sitting upstairs.
Since the last time his aura was depleted and his divine sense was damaged, Lin Yi no longer used his divine sense at will, and everything he had witnessed in the wilderness under the moonlit night that day made him even more careful. On weekdays, the divine consciousness only protects a few feet away from the side to protect itself.
As soon as Lin turned to the stairs, he was about to go upstairs, when a surprise shout suddenly came from behind him.
"Is it Brother Lin?!"
Lin Yi stopped when he heard the sound, looked back, and saw that the three of them were coming in from outside, led by a tall man with a smile on his face, coming towards him from outside.
"Haha! It's really Brother Lin, it's really unexpected! You and my brother will meet here! Come, come, come! I want to have a drink with my brother today!"
The person who came laughed, grabbed Lin Yi's hand and walked to the vacant seat on the side, and the two young strong men behind him were also smiling.
"It turned out to be the eldest brother of Tieniu, and the younger brother didn't expect it! What an unexpected joy!" Lin Yimu was surprised and sat down hand in hand with the other party.
It turned out that this person was the iron bull who made trouble in the Tianlong Sect last year, and was later captured and punished, and went to pick up horse manure in the chariot and horse compound, and got acquainted with Lin Yi and others.
Lin Yixi was bold and upright, and helped punish Hu Wancai, who was in the money gang. The other party also read this love of help, so he wrote down this young outer disciple.
As soon as Fang Cailin turned around, he was seen by Tie Niu who entered the door, reunited in a different place, and didn't dare to recognize each other rashly, but he couldn't change his straightforward temperament, and couldn't help shouting. Unexpectedly, this person was Brother Lin.
"These two are the sworn brothers in my county, the taller one is Wu Chen, and the lower one is Yang Rui. This is the Lin Yi brother I met in the Tianlong Sect! Everyone is my own brother. Tie Niu slapped the table, his voice was loud, and he beckoned the man to serve wine and food.
Wu Chen and Yang Rui were both born strong, and at the age of twenty-three or four, they should be similar to Tie Niu's temperament. The two got up and hugged their fists and greeted Lin Yi again.
Lin loves to make friends with straightforward people all his life, and he doesn't see each other, and he calls him a brother.
The wine and food came up in a blink of an eye, and the four of them raised their glasses and drank three times in a row before greeting each other.
Tie Niu lived in the town twenty miles away, and he was bored, so he came to look for two brothers in the city to drink, and happened to meet Lin Yi who was passing by.
Lin Yi also told the other party that he was traveling with his inner disciples, passing by here, and he was leaving tomorrow.
Tie Niu was very greedy for Lin Yi's trip, but he had a lesson from the past, and he didn't dare to think about it. He also knew that it was not easy to meet each other, so he just cared about pushing the cup and changing the lamp, and he was sure to have a good drink.
The three brothers of Tie Niu drank a lot of wine, and they toasted with Lin Yi in turn. It is rare to have such a pair of temperamental people to drink together, and I am afraid that it will be difficult to meet again in the future, Lin Yi naturally does not refuse to come.
The man had all the words in the wine, and the four of them drank happily for a while.
"It's a pity that Brother Lin has to leave tomorrow, otherwise I will definitely take you to live in my house for a year and a half!" Tie Niu and Lin Yi said with regret after a drink.
Lin Yi drank like this for the first time in a restaurant. Last time in Qincheng, I didn't have the interest to fight wine with Jinke today. The three of Tie Niu have a bold temperament and are generous, so he also let go of the amount of alcohol and just wanted to get drunk. Helplessly, the body has its own world, as soon as this wine enters the abdomen, it is turned into mist and transpired by the aura, and its internal organs are no better than the worldly mortals, and they can't get drunk at all. This drinking has also made the reason for the fun, borrowing is the wine, and the line is happy!
"Hehe, it's enough to have Brother Tie Niu's words. Several brothers were kind, and Lin Yixin accepted it! Come, let the brothers toast the brothers!" Lin said.
The three of Tie Niu also drank with interest, applauded loudly, and drank with Lin Yiyi.
The four of them ate and drank boldly, and their words were informal, which made the diners in the lobby of the restaurant look sideways.
In Xia County, this iron bull is not small, and from time to time someone raises a glass from afar and greets the three of them.
The iron bull is also not ambiguous, and the cup is at the bottom, which provokes a lot of applause. All of a sudden, the lobby of the restaurant was bustling.
In the past, he blindly forbeared, and it was rare to be so happy, and Lin Yi also drank non-stop.
"Lin Yi, why are you drinking hereββ?
A low shout suddenly sounded, and the ears of the people who shook were buzzing, and the noisy restaurant was suddenly quiet.
When Lin heard the sound, he sat upright and slowly put down the wine glass in his hand.
