Chapter 128: Mixed Joys and Sorrows
In this way, a strange news came out in the Taixuan Sect the next day, forty powerhouses who were originally selected to enter the ancient ruins of the late stage of foundation building announced a retreat together, and some other older veterans were on top of the late stage of foundation building.
"What's going on, why are so many people choosing retreat together, what happened?"
"I don't know, and let some old ones in the late stage of foundation building be on top, this combat power is simply incomparable, let those people enter the ancient ruins, isn't it clear that they will be sent to death!"
"Yes, yes, but it's not necessarily a bad thing for them, after all, there is a inheritance in the ancient ruins, and if you are lucky enough to meet a inheritance, the future is limitless!"
"Cut, do you think the inheritance is so easy to encounter, after so many years, I haven't heard of anyone who has received the inheritance in it!"
“”
There was such a discussion in all corners of the Taixuan Sect, obviously feeling extremely incomprehensible about what happened suddenly.
This ancient site is a very important matter, why did the forty powerhouses of the late stage of foundation building choose to retreat together at this time? There must be something wrong with this.
On the contrary, when many people were about to ask the sect master and the elders, they were unexpectedly told that they had also entered the retreat, and the sect master had already explained everything about the ancient ruins before the retreat.
Originally, Lin Chong was the captain of the ancient ruins this time, but now it has been replaced by Hong Tuo, and Hong Tuo himself is also very surprised by this.
Although there are many veteran late-stage foundation building players who have joined, if you want to talk about real combat effectiveness, none of these veteran late-stage foundation building powerhouses are Hong Tuo's opponents, and that's it, so others dare not have objections to him as the captain at all.
"Strange, what kind of medicine is sold in this sect master's gourd, and how can so many people suddenly choose to retreat?" In his mansion, Hong Tuo frowned slightly.
And in his hand there was a white jade slip, which was sent to him early in the morning, and inside was the task assigned to him by the sect master.
Since the elder and Lin Chong and other disciples were all in retreat, Hong Tuo was personally responsible for the ancient ruins a month later, and the jade slip also explained the location and specific time of the opening of the ancient ruins.
Although Hong Tuo didn't understand this, no matter what, it was an order given by the sect master himself, so he could only obey it unconditionally.
"Xiao Lin was injured, Hua Zheng was taken away by Shanshan and the mysterious old man, the sect wants me to tell Xiao Lin the news, what is going on?"
Due to Xuan Ming's special explanation, Hong Tuo left his mansion and walked towards the sect master's mansion not long after, because Xiao Lin was there to recuperate.
Although Xiao Lin's injuries were very serious, with the help of the Heart Protection Pill and his original strong spiritual power, the injuries in his body had gradually recovered after a night.
According to Xiao Lin's recovery speed, he should be able to wake up in a few days, and he should be able to heal after a few days of healing.
At this time, Xiao Lin, who was asleep, was constantly having nightmares, seeing that he was having the same nightmare over and over again, Xiao Lin wanted to wake up, but he tried hard for a long time but never succeeded.
In his sleep, tears continued to flow from the corners of Xiao Lin's eyes, and his original black hair had all turned gray, and then the gray slowly changed to silver gray.
Gu You's grief turned white overnight, and Xiao Lin lost a hundred years of life, plus he had nightmares about Hua Zheng's tragic death over and over again in a coma, so the sadness caused his hair to change at an accelerated pace.
"Xiao Lin?"
When Hong Tuo came to the room where Xiao Lin was, his eyes suddenly showed surprise, because he found that Xiao Lin at this time had silver-gray hair, and the overall aura gave people a sense of vicissitudes, as if it was not a young man lying on the bed, but an old man.
"How can this be, I haven't seen you for a few months" Hong Tuo didn't want to go on, even when he saw Xiao Lin like this, he felt a little sad in his heart.
This is not to say that the relationship between Hong Tuo and Xiao Lin is very good, because the aura on Xiao Lin's body can already affect Hong Tuo's mood.
"Whew!"
At first, Hong Tuo didn't notice his mood change, but it didn't take long for him to find out, so he exhaled lightly and suppressed his sad emotions.
But as soon as he suppressed it, Hong Tuo found that his heart began to feel sad again, which made him can't help but take a few steps back from the house.
After being farther away from Xiao Lin, Hong Tuo felt a little better, after all, the sad mood was not so pleasing.
"It's incredible that the aura on Xiao Lin's body can affect my mood!" Hong Tuo looked at Xiao Lin with a look of surprise in his eyes, and then he sighed and left the room.
Although Hong Tuo didn't feel so sad when he was far away from Xiao Lin, the atmosphere in the whole room was very depressing, which made people feel very uncomfortable, so Hong Tuo didn't stay long before he came out, because he really couldn't stay any longer.
In this way, time passed day by day, and these days, Hong Tuo would come over several times almost every day, but when he saw that Xiao Lin still hadn't woken up, he went back.
It wasn't until after the fifth day that the sad and desolate aura on Xiao Lin's body was slowly restrained by him, and at this time, his aura gradually stabilized.
"Huh?"
Xiao Lin hummed softly in a coma, and then his eyes opened violently in the next second, and his eyes were full of horror.
"Kite Girl!"
Xiao Lin sat up from the bed violently, and at the same time shouted Hua Zheng's name in his mouth.
Because just now, he dreamed of Hua Zheng's tragic death again, that scene was really bloody, I saw a bowl-sized wound on Hua Zheng's chest, and the blood continued to flow out and stained the ground blood-red.
At that moment, it was as if the entire world had turned blood-red, and the air was filled with the smell of blood.
Just when Hua Zheng's figure turned into pus and disappeared in front of Xiao Lin little by little, Xiao Lin finally collapsed at this moment, and then he suddenly woke up from his slumber in the next second.
When Xiao Lin saw the unfamiliar environment, he touched his forehead with his hand, and his forehead was covered with cold sweat at this time.
"It turned out to be a dream!" Xiao Lin secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
But just as he finished speaking, some memories in his mind quickly surfaced, and the scenes like a dream resurfaced in his mind.
"No!"
When Xiao Lin remembered everything, he couldn't help but raise his head and scream, because he remembered that although he had spent a hundred years of life to renew Hua Zheng's life for half an hour, he still couldn't save him in the end.
"Huh, Xiao Lin is awake!"
As soon as Hong Tuo entered the Sect Master's Mansion, he heard a loud shout, although the voice was a little hoarse, but he still heard that the voice was Xiao Lin's, so in the next second, Hong Tuo ran quickly.
"Sister Zheng, I know you won't die, where are you?" Although he remembered it, Xiao Lin still couldn't believe that it was true, so he hurriedly got out of bed and prepared to go out to ask for an understanding.
"Xiao Lin!"
However, just as he ran out of the room, Hong Tuo on the other side happened to run over.
Looking at Xiao Lin, who was full of silver and gray hair, Hong Tuo had an indescribable feeling in his heart, and when he saw the other party's sad face, he secretly sighed in his heart that the former sunny boy would not come back.
"Senior Brother Hong?"
Xiao Lin saw that Hong Tuo stopped him, and immediately stunned slightly, and then he hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Senior Brother Hong, you told me that Sister Zheng is not dead, is it, is she not dead!"
"Xiao Lin, calm down, Hua Zheng is not dead, she is really not dead!" Seeing Xiao Lin's excited appearance, Hong Tuo hurriedly said loudly: "Hua Zheng is not dead, she was rescued by Shanshan and a mysterious old man, this is what the sect master specially explained to me to tell you!"
"Rescued by Shanshan and a mysterious old man?" Xiao Lin muttered, and at this time, his eyes were firmly fixed on Hong Tuo, and when he found that the other party really didn't lie to him anymore, Xiao Lin smiled.
The original great sorrow turned into great joy, which made Xiao Lin's injury start to be unstable again, so Hong Tuo saw this and hurriedly reached out and pressed Xiao Lin's shoulder to stabilize the injury in his body.
If the otherwise stable injury breaks out again, the consequences are very serious.
And Xiao Lin, who had experienced a mixture of joy and sorrow, also discovered his abnormality at this time, so he hurriedly took a deep breath to adjust his emotions.
With his emotions under control, Xiao Lin's injuries stabilized again, and Hong Tuo withdrew his hand when he saw this.
"Senior Brother Hong, thank you!" Seeing Hong Tuo's slightly relieved look, Xiao Lin said gratefully, if it wasn't for the other party's timely intervention to help him stabilize his injury, I'm afraid that his injury would have broken out at this time, and the consequences would have been serious.
"It's okay, it's okay, as long as you don't have anything to do, after all, it will be the ancient ruins in another month, I don't want you to have injuries on your body by then!" Hong Tuo waved his hand.
Xuan Ming specifically noted in the jade slip that he wanted Xiao Lin to go with him, if Xiao Lin didn't go because of his injury, then Hong Tuo couldn't afford this responsibility, of course, he also had doubts about Xuan Ming having to let Xiao Lin enter the ancient ruins, but he didn't think so much about it when he couldn't think of any reason.
"I know, I know, I will recover from my injuries as soon as possible, by the way, Senior Brother Hong, was Sister Zheng really rescued by Shanshan?" Xiao Lin nodded, and then asked again.
"Hmm!"
Hong Tuo nodded lightly and didn't want to explain more, after all, Xuan Ming told him this matter through Yu Jian, and he didn't know if it was true or not.
However, Xiao Lin believed this, because he felt a strange aura on Shanshan as early as when he knew her, so at that time he thought that this Shanshan was not simple.
And now when he heard that Shanshan and a mysterious old man rescued Hua Zheng, Xiao Lin was sure that his original guess was correct, this Shanshan was really not an ordinary person.
