Chapter 178: Out to Sea
Facing the many questioning eyes on the sea ship, and in the face of Monsan's aggressive questioning and intimidation, Lin Yi curled the corners of his mouth and shook his head with a sneer.
"Although I, Lin Yi, am an outer disciple, I have never regarded myself as an outsider along the way. As Elder Meng said, it is the sect's judgment of what my Lin Yi has done, and I have nothing to say. It's just that what makes my heart chill is not that I was abandoned again and again at the moment of life and death, but after being abandoned, after I dragged the undead body with the master of Liu Tang and chased hard, what I got was the retribution of death without a place to bury!
I think that Elder Meng will not act on speculation, right? Why don't you ask Hall Master Liu? If Hall Master Liu also says that I, Lin Yi, have ill intentions, it will not be too late for you to kill again. Even if Elder Meng doesn't like me, a horse breeding disciple, to find an uninhabited island on the boat, and leave Lin Yi alone to die!"
After finishing his words unhurriedly, Lin Yi put his hands behind his back and raised his chin. His cold gaze swept over everyone, intentionally or unintentionally, on the balcony.
"Humph!
Meng Shan was also carefully looking at Lin Yi's expression, seeing that his eyes were clear and his expression was indifferent, but his words were sharp, which made his old face a little unbearable, and he could only suppress his anger in front of all the disciples.
Looking at the unconscious Liu Hall Master on the ship's board, Meng Shan frowned, and shouted in a deep voice: "Come on, send the Liu Hall Master to be treated, and then send two people to take care of this kid for me, don't let him walk around, even on the ship's board, you can't let him come up, everything will wait for the Liu Hall Master to wake up and then make a plan." He snorted and walked away.
In the blink of an eye, he became a prisoner, but Lin Yi was in a good mood. As long as you go to sea, no one can drive you away. With an innocent and relaxed look, he looked around, only to pause briefly as his gaze swept over the balcony again.
"Old Dao! I almost parted ways!" Lin Yi arched his hand at Zhen Yuanzi not far away, and grinned at Senior Brother Yuanqing:
"Two brothers, don't come unharmed!"
"You stinky boy!" Zhen Yuanzi rolled his eyes and scolded, but a smile appeared on his face. Brother Yuan Qing also greeted Lin Yi with a smile.
"Alright, come with me!" the two young men who looked like disciples came over and rebuked impatiently.
Lin Yi nodded disapprerovingly, obediently followed the two of them to the bottom of the deck, and did not forget to turn around and shout at Zhen Yuanzi: "Old Dao, don't forget me if you eat and drink!"
His gaze swept over Senior Sister Mu Qing'er, and he nodded with a smile. Mu Qing'er didn't see it, but Senior Sister Xu bowed her head gently.
The sea vessels are huge. It is more than 20 zhang long, more than 3 zhang wide, plus the three-story attic on the shipboard, it is five or six zhang high. There are also three tall masts, which are hung with sails.
Under the deck, there are also two layers. On the ground floor is ballast stones, and there are some edible things. Half of the second floor is still filled with food sundries, and the other half is divided into small rooms and becomes a place for the boatman to sleep.
Perhaps because of Lin Yi's special status, he was taken to a small room near the front. Above the cabin beside it, a round hole the size of a baby's head was opened, and a ray of light shone through the door of the cabin.
Lin Yi pushed open the door, and there was nothing in the room less than a foot square, except for the moisture in his nose.
Someone threw in a futon, Lin Yi took it, the quilt was so wet that he could catch the water, and there was a musty smell.
The futon was spread on the ground, Lin Yihao sat cross-legged for a long time, smiled at the two disciples at the door, closed his eyes, and sat up. The two men snorted, turned and walked away, footsteps stopping at the exit of the deck.
The two did not stay in front of Lin Yimen, but tried to save trouble and guard the exit of the cabin.
Lin Yi breathed a sigh of relief and took out his suede mattress and spread it under him. He lay down, his arms back to support his head, his legs crossed, and slowly swayed, as if he was on the lying cow stone on the top of the immortal, relaxing physically and mentally, thinking about his own thoughts.
After getting on the boat, as soon as Lin saw those inner disciples who had never appeared along the way, he knew that his previous guess was right. The Tianlong faction is indeed divided into two ways, one bright and one dark, echoing each other from afar.
Mengshan and Lin Yi's line was clear, passing through the state and county, attracting the peeps and even tailgating of fellow people in the rivers and lakes, until the later fight. If the forces of the same people in the rivers and lakes are not something that Monsan can easily cut off, another team of people hidden in the shadows of the Tianlong Sect will take action and get rid of all those who dare to pick up the tiger's beard.
On the way, Meng Shan and Ji Tang went out quietly many times, so that Lin Yi sensed that something was wrong, and on the night after Anxi, he hid in the night sky, and finally saw another team of people from the Tianlong Sect hidden in the shadows.
The old man who wielded the flying sword, who had seen it before, was actually the Supreme Elder of the Heavenly Dragon Sect surnamed Jiang. After Lin Yi learned about this, he was secretly careful. After encountering wolves on the grassland, the wolf king was injured, presumably the two teams were not too far apart, and Elder Jiang and his party also did not avoid the wolves.
These two teams finally converged, which was also what Lin Yi thought of in advance. Although he was jealous of Elder Jiang in his heart, Lin Yi still wanted to board this boat because he had no choice.
However, when he got on the boat, Lin Yi still ran the "Hidden Spirit Technique" to hide the fluctuations of the aura on his body. In this way, it is a Qiankun bag, and because of the close-fitting sake, the abnormalities on it have also become nonexistent. Fortunately, Elder Jiang has the demeanor of a high-ranking hermit, I don't know if it was intentional or unintentional, as if he didn't care about his arrival.
As soon as Lin arrived at the boat, he could feel Elder Jiang's presence. Although the other party did not appear, when his divine sense swept over, he was still aware of it.
What made Lin Yi feel lucky was that the divine sense was just swept away. Come to think of it, the other party didn't notice his abnormality.
Shaking his head, Lin Yi secretly thought that he would not be able to use his divine sense for a while, so it was better to be cautious. Hiding under this pod isn't necessarily a bad thing!
The boat moves smoothly, and sometimes it is difficult to tell where you are, whether you are on land or at sea. Lin Yi didn't need to go out during the meal, someone sent it to the door.
Lin Yi stayed in the small room, except that he couldn't move around, but he was also at ease.
Staying in the hut honestly, Lin Yi didn't know where the ship was going, so he could only sit quietly and breathe. Because he was afraid of that Elder Jiang, he didn't even dare to enter the cultivation of Dingding, so he could only concentrate on listening to the movements on the sea boat. After all, Monsan has something to say, and he can't be unguarded.
On the evening of the same day, in a room on the first floor of the deck of the sea ship, Meng Shan and a few people gathered in front of the master of the Liu Hall on the couch. The other man had woken up, and the knife wounds on his body had been properly bandaged, but he looked tired and had no expression on his pale face.
"Liu Zhi, just wake up. You tell me the truth, how did you and Lin Yi get here, and where did those disciples go?" Meng Shan finished speaking, took two steps back, and sat on a wooden chair, his face a little gloomy.
Monsan's words reminded Liu Zhi of the reversal of life and death in a day, as well as the despair when he was besieged twice. He looked at the oil lamp above his head with his eyes distracted, and after a long time, he coughed lightly and said with a slight hoarseness: "Three days ago, after the elder's boat left, the disciples and his party were targeted. Yesterday...... On the day, the disciple led people to abandon the ship and set foot in Tonghai Prefecture, besieged by more than 200 people, and after fighting to the death, the other party was helpless, and in the end only I and the two coachmen remained, and the rest of the disciples died......"
Liu Zhi took a deep breath, calmed the sorrow in his heart, and continued: "When the disciple decided to die, Lin Yi killed Liu Juhu of the platoon gang and saved the disciple...... Then the blacks fled during the night...... They are in hot pursuit...... Jinke's outer disciple escaped first. The disciple and Lin Yi and the two were chased and killed, and the way to retreat was cut off......
...... In desperation, the disciple remembered the place where Lingzhou went to sea...... Perhaps, escaping to the sea is a way to get rid of the opponent. The disciple entrusted the blessing of your fellow disciples and picked up a life. If you violate the rules of the door because of this, the matter will also be caused by the disciple alone. The disciple's willingness to be punished has nothing to do with Lin Yi! I hope that the elders will be aware of it with you...... Cough...... Ahem......"
Liu Zhi, who was weak, was panting unevenly and coughed before he finished speaking.
Elder Meng pondered the words of Hall Master Liu back and forth, his face calm, and he was silent for a long time. Suddenly, his eyes flashed, stared at Liu Zhi and said, "What time was yesterday when you were surrounded?"
"Yesterday...... It's dawn. Liu Zhi's chest rose and fell, but his words were not out of proportion, and his eyes were deep.
"Why did you advance a day earlier? According to the pre-planning, you shouldn't have gone so fast!" Monsan asked.
"Hang up the Heavenly Dragon Banner, do you still want to live in peace!" Hall Master Liu sighed lightly, and then said: "In order to get rid of the encirclement above Shangshui, the disciple can only walk faster to get rid of the entanglement!"
"Twelve hours, five hundred miles, and he was carrying a seriously wounded man...... Zixian, can you do it?" Meng Shan thought for a while, but unexpectedly asked the apprentices around him.
Yu Zixian was not convinced by the outer disciple in his heart, smiled a little embarrassedly, bowed down and replied: "If it is a disciple alone, it is not difficult!"
"Hmph! can't just can't, where is so much nonsense!" Meng Shan snorted coldly. Yu Zixian smiled, scratched his head and stepped aside.
"Liu Zhi, what about this Lin Yi's martial arts?" Elder Meng's face softened slightly, and he asked out loud.
Liu Zhi did not hesitate, and replied: "He has a lot of strength, he runs fast, and it is difficult to judge how his martial arts are." Because the disciple fainted for a long time along the way, he didn't pay attention to this. ”
"Ji Tang, just let those two disciples secretly stare at Lin Yi!" Meng Shanchong ordered Ji Tang, who was standing beside him, and then stood up. On his gloomy face, he squeezed out a slight smile and said, "Liu Zhi, let's live and recuperate! For the sake of the sect's plan, it is sometimes inevitable for a strong man to break his wrist!"
"Thank you, Elder!"
Liu Zhi lay on the couch and thanked him. He looked at the departing crowd, let out a long breath, and closed his eyes tiredly.
Lin Yi, I will never forget the grace of saving my life! However, I can only do this. Whoever you are and what you want to be here...... Do it for yourself!
