Chapter 46: The Old Man in the Tianxin Pavilion
During this period, Lin Yan also carried the empty man on his back to pass by the territory of the unkempt Xuanhu who had made him die nine times in his life, and the experience of walking through the ghost gate made Lin Yan unforgettable, and he still had lingering palpitations about the big-tailed fox that would have a mental impact.
What made Lin Yan a little curious was that when they passed by the territory of the unkempt Xuanhu, this fox didn't even show his face, Lin Yan knew that he would never remember these places wrongly, which gave him a new understanding of the empty path people.
The road after passing the territory of the unkempt Xuanhu was all pointed out by the empty path people behind Lin Yan.
It was the first time for Lin Yan to enter such a deep place in the mountains, and he looked around curiously as he walked.
The depths of the mountains were obviously very different from the periphery where he had been, and the first thing was quiet, death-like silence.
In the depths, every territory has obvious boundaries, and there are traces of fighting. Lin Yan looked at these traces and could think of how fierce the battle was at that time.
There is no free lunch in the world, and if there is, it is not a trap or a trap! There is no low-hanging fruit, even the territory of wild beasts is fought through blood and sweat.
The beasts in the depths can no longer be called beasts, and the intelligence of each one is no less than that of humans, or even more intelligent. Maybe we could call them spirit beasts.
Although Lin Yan's Tai Chi Mind Method was increasing day by day, and his state of mind was also cultivating well, every time he passed by the territory of a certain spirit beast, he would feel the breath of those spirit beasts, which would shock him.
Lin Yan knew that if it weren't for the empty Dao people he was carrying, these spirit beasts would definitely not emit such a friendly aura.
After entering the deep mountains, he walked for three days on the periphery and another three days in the depths, and the empty road man finally told Lin Yan that the front was there.
Lin Yan looked at the calm lake in front of him, no one could have imagined that there was such a beautiful lake in the inaccessible deep mountains and dense forests, and there was a small pavilion made of wood in the lake.
Tianxin Pavilion!
The name of the small pavilion was told to Lin Yan by the empty man.
Only then did Lin Yan know that Tianxin Pavilion was not in Tianxin, but in the middle of the lake.
The small lake is not large, and the pavilion is built in the center of the lake, and eight simple bridges made of wood lead to the pavilion.
Lin Yan smiled and turned around and asked the Empty Dao Man, this was also the first time he turned around when he carried the Empty Dao Man on his back, "Is the person the predecessor cares about in this Tianxin Pavilion?"
The empty man also smiled, "Maybe it's here, maybe it's not." What is the difference between being there and not being there?"
Lin Yan stepped on the wooden bridge, and the wood under his feet creaked, as if it was because it had been too old and was a little rotten.
The wooden bridge looks fragile, but it is very strong.
The same is true of many things, which seem prosaic but are actually all-encompassing. It's much stronger than those things that are ruined on the outside.
Said it was a pavilion, but it was actually a small wooden house, Lin Yan walked to the door, supported the empty man with one hand, freed the other hand, and knocked on the wooden door.
It seems that no one has touched this wooden door for a long time, and as Lin Yan knocked on the door, a lot of dust fell on the wooden door, which made Lin Yan cough involuntarily.
There was no response in the room for a long time, and Lin Yan secretly said in his heart, could it be that the person who cared about his predecessors was really not here, it seemed that his trip was in vain.
But he thought about it again, yes, what difference is there between being there and not being there? What is the difference between this trip and not going in vain?
Lin Yan has been very smart since he was a child, he didn't pay attention to it himself, and he seemed to have seen through a lot of things these days with the empty path people.
Just as Lin Yan was standing at the door and thinking to himself, the wooden door creaked and opened from the inside, and a thick dust came out of the door, and Lin Yan, who was choking, subconsciously took a few steps back.
The inside of the house is very dark, the doors and windows are always closed, and there is so much dust, the house must have been empty for a long time, right?
A breeze blew by, scattering a lot of dust, and Lin Yan took two steps forward and stretched out his hand to push all the wood away.
"Chirp......" A monkey suddenly jumped out of the wooden house, which startled Lin Yan, he didn't expect that there were still living creatures in such a heavy dust.
After the monkey jumped out, it circled around Lin Yan a few times, chirped twice, turned to his back, jumped up and patted the empty man's head.
The Empty Man looked at the monkey and just smiled.
Although Lin Yan was curious, he didn't ask. This pavilion belongs to the empty path people's friends, and if the empty people don't explain everything, Lin Yan will not take the initiative to ask questions.
It seemed that the sun was also afraid of the very simple-looking wooden door, and when the wooden door was fully opened, the sunlight shone into the wooden house, but only a faint ray of sunlight.
Fortunately, Lin Yan's six senses are far beyond ordinary people, so he can vaguely see a few windows in the house through the faint sunlight.
Lin Yan carried the empty man on his back and walked into the house.
The sun outside was good and warm, but when Lin Yan walked into the house, he suddenly felt like a different place, cold and rotten. It's like throwing a basin of ice from head to foot on a dog day in June.
A moderate cooling can be cool, and if it's excessive, it can also feel bad.
Lin Yan carried the empty man on his back and pushed open a few windows, and the sunlight completely shone in.
Only then did Lin Yan completely see the environment in the entire cabin. The interior of the house was simple, with a table, a few chairs, and a bed leaning against the corner, all made of wood.
Most of the things in the town may not be found in the mountains, but there is no shortage of timber at all.
There were a lot of things on the table, and it was very messy, and it was covered with dust, and the chairs were also placed haphazardly and disorganized.
There was a man lying on the bed!
Lin Yan wanted to put the empty man behind him on the bed, only to find the person lying on the bed.
An old woman!
His face was wrinkled, his hair was gray, his shriveled skin seemed to have no moisture, and he lay on the bed in the corner with his eyes closed, lifeless and lifeless, as if he had become one with the small bed.
The whole house was covered with dust, but this bed and the old man on the bed were spotless!
This should be the person he cares about in the mouth of the empty road.
No matter who comes to see it, they will feel that this old woman has already gone west.
Lin Yan approached the bedside, and the old man suddenly spoke, "You're back?"
The voice is as crisp as a lark, and it doesn't look old at all!
Although this abrupt voice was in great contrast and inconsistent with the old man's appearance, Lin Yan had an extremely natural feeling in his ears!
It seems that the old man should have such a voice, and he didn't give people a little bit of discomfort!
An old man who seemed to have passed away suddenly spoke, but it seemed very reasonable!
The old man's eyes didn't open, and he was still lying motionless on the bed!
The empty path man behind Lin Yan spoke: "I'm back." ”
"When are you leaving?"
"It could be a while, it could be tomorrow, it could be next year, it could be the next life. ”
