Chapter 44: The Empty Man
The beggar's weak voice came from behind Lin Yan, "I remember you, kid. ”
Lin Yan didn't reply, "It's an honor." ”
"Why save me?"
Lin Yan didn't hesitate at all, "I can't bear to see my seniors lying on the street being pointed at by sentient beings." ”
"Being pointed at by sentient beings?" the beggar seemed disdainful ......when he heard this answer. It's like saying to Lin Yan, and it's like saying to yourself, "Do people live for themselves or for sentient beings?"
Lin Yan still walked forward as if he hadn't heard it.
"Why don't you save me before I get hurt?" the beggar's voice seemed a little sarcastic.
"If you do something wrong, you have to pay it back. Lin Yan still didn't hesitate.
The beggar behind him was silent for a long time.
He was silent, and so was Lin Yan.
In the middle of the night, it was the beggar on his back who took the lead in breaking the silence. "Boy, last time you told me that you were pursuing the path of cultivation, I don't think you have made much progress during this time, how can you take revenge at this level?"
The beggar's weight was very light, and Lin Yan had no trouble carrying it on his back, but at this moment he felt like he was carrying a mountain on his back.
Cold sweat oozed from the top of Lin Yan's head, and he was sure that except for himself, there was no other person in this world who knew that his ultimate goal was revenge.
Lin Yan never stopped.
At this moment, Lin Yan thought about many thoughts, could it be that this beggar was his enemy? Why did he seem to know everything? He was behind my back, if he wanted to attack me, how could he prevent it? Since he couldn't prevent it, he didn't even make a move, isn't the enemy a beggar on his back?
The beggar who had just broken his leg was smiling, but Lin Yan didn't see his smile, Lin Yan didn't have eyes on his back, and no one would have eyes on his back.
The beggar smiled and said, "You don't have to be nervous, the reason why I know your purpose is because I see it in your eyes." ”
Lin Yan asked in surprise, "In the eyes?"
"A person's eyes don't deceive, and the change in the breath of your body will show a person's heart to others. You think you're hiding well, but you're just a young man. ”
The beggar paused, and before Lin Yan could say anything, he continued: "It's like saying that after you had murderous intent against me in your heart just now, although you think you control it very well, your body will still have a slight conditioned reflex, just like the little finger of your right hand moves slightly, your left shoulder is slightly forward, and your right shoulder is backward, these are all to guard against me behind me." ”
The beggar spoke very carefully, and Lin Yan listened very carefully.
Listening to the beggar's remarks, Lin Yan's footsteps moved again, and he already knew that the beggar behind him had absolutely no hostility towards him. "Taught. ”
Lin Yan lowered his head, and the beggar on his back was smiling. Lin Yan couldn't see the beggar's expression, and the beggar naturally couldn't see Lin Yan's expression.
"Will many people see through the immature disguise of our young people?" Lin Yan asked the beggar behind him without looking back.
"I don't know about the others, I feel like I'm living for myself, not anyone else. ”
Lin Yan's heart moved, "Don't you have anyone you care about?"
The beggar smiled, "There is one, and she cares about me as well." ”
Lin Yan continued: "Do you live for her?"
"Yes. ”
"Oh?" the corners of Lin Yan's mouth rose slightly, as if he was proud that his plan had succeeded.
The beggar understood what Lin Yan meant, and the young man seemed to have grasped the loophole in his words, "She is not someone else to me. ”
The corners of Lin Yan's raised mouth froze, and the footsteps under his feet were also stunned. He didn't expect the beggar to say that.
Sure enough, the ginger is still old and spicy.
It was the beggar who took the lead in breaking the silence, "If it weren't for me, if it were other passers-by, would you still save it?"
Lin Yan thought about it carefully, "It shouldn't be." ”
"Then you must have your purpose in saving me?"
"I can't talk about the purpose, I'm just curious, if I'm not mistaken, the light skills of my predecessors should be among the best in the world, why bother?" Lin Yan's words were not finished, but there was no need to finish them.
"You guessed wrong, my light skills are not as good as you think, at least I know, there are ten people above me, and there are countless people I don't know. ”
Lin Yan didn't talk, he knew that the middle-aged man hadn't finished speaking, and the middle-aged man also knew that what he wanted to ask was not this.
Sure enough, the beggar continued: "As for your question, it is still the same sentence, you are still too young, I told you that you don't understand, so why bother telling you?"
Lin Yan said: "Since I said it and I don't understand, why don't I say it?"
When the beggar heard this, he looked up to the sky and laughed, "Hahaha! You kid!"
Lin Yan still walked silently.
The beggar suddenly stretched out his hand into his arms, and took out the wine jug he was desperately holding up from his arms, "Boy, do you know how to drink?"
"No, it won't. ”
"That's a shame. After saying that, the beggar looked at the flask in his hand, shook his head, and threw it out.
No one knows what he thought in his heart, and the beggar didn't even care about his legs for the sake of this jug of wine, but at this time he threw the jug out, and he didn't have any nostalgia at all.
"Hey, boy, where do you want to carry me?"
"I wanted to carry you to a place where I could heal you, but now I want to carry you to the person who cares about you. ”
The beggar said gloomily, "But where she is is far away, you can't reach it with me on your back." ”
"How do you know if you don't try? ”
The beggar just wanted to speak, but suddenly as if he remembered something, he said: "Still no, I remember that you are a disciple of the Tang Sect, the person I care about has some trouble with the current master of the Tang Sect, and may be a little prejudiced against you." "Actually, what this beggar said was implicit, if the person he said saw the Tang Sect disciple, he would definitely not let the Tang Sect disciple go back alive.
Lin Yan smiled, "Coincidentally, I'm no longer from the Tang Sect." ”
The beggar laughed playfully, "Because of what?"
"Disappointment. ”
"Hahaha......" The beggar laughed much louder this time than just now, and more heartily.
"Disappointment, what a disappointment!hahaha!" The beggar laughed wildly, fortunately, the place Lin Yan chose was very few people, otherwise it would definitely attract the sideways eyes of the people around him.
"Well, since you have disowned the Tang Sect, you can also go to her. Today we will find a place to rest and leave early tomorrow morning. ”
When Lin Yan heard this, he said hello, and began to look around.
"What are you looking for?" the beggar was behind him, so his movements could be seen clearly by the beggar.
"The inn. Lin Yan was a little puzzled, "Aren't you going to rest?"
"Yes, you want to rest, but do you have any money?"
"This ......," Lin Yan said.
"Boy, put me down, I think this corner is good. ”
Lin Yan looked back, "Okay." ”
The two of them just lay down in the corner, and Lin Yan spoke: "Under Lin Yan, I don't know what the seniors are called?"
"It's good to say, in the early years, the master gave me the name of Guangcheng, and in recent years, everyone has called me, the empty man. ”
