Chapter 243: Pain
The blue bricks and blue tiles are murmuring, only an elegant and exquisite environment, and there is no majestic and solemn atmosphere, this is the Lin family.
Although the Lin family is not conspicuous, the entire Aoki Continent is secretly controlled by the Lin family, and the Lin family, which has such a huge power and has lasted for countless years, is in such a valley, calm, serene, exquisite, and elegant.
The gloomy young man who came here finally showed a smile at this moment, and the task lasted more than a year, and it was finally completed.
"Wushao, you're back!"
Far away, the attendant servants who were guarding the mouth of the valley greeted them warmly, with a slightly flattering smile on their faces.
Although the young man no longer looked gloomy, he held his head high in reserve, and only nodded slightly at this moment and said, "My task is complete, come to the ancestral house to return the task." ”
"Oh, then this is Qishao!"
Suddenly, the attendants and servants around enthusiastically stepped forward to salute Lin Cheng, and Lin Cheng responded calmly, but his mind was already thinking.
Five less, seven less? I am seven less.
And such two simple words contain a lot of information.
His identity in the Lin family is definitely not simple, but his parents have never seen him, what is the past that he doesn't know about? And what is the purpose of his exile? Why is this young man who accepts himself and still doesn't know his name so cold to him?
All this was just flashing in his mind, but there was nothing unusual on Lin Cheng's complexion.
"I don't need to say hello, it's impossible to say if it's my Lin family's direct lineage. Wu Shao's face sank, scolded these family members away, and then took Lin Cheng to the valley.
Along the way, many people saw the two of them saluting one after another, and many more people greeted each other with smiles, obviously these five young people are not only the cultivation of the winning period, but also have a high status in the entire Lin family.
In Lin Cheng's eyes, he also had to sigh at the strength of the Lin family.
Along the way, I have seen more than ten of them in the winning period, and the yuan infant period abounds.
The two of them walked all the way to an ancient tree in the middle of the valley.
After walking for about a quarter of an hour, I came to the foot of the ancient tree.
Up close, this unknown ancient tree is not very stout, only ten people hug each other, and the aura it exudes does not show any subtlety. It's like an ordinary old tree.
Seeing Lin Cheng looking at the ancient tree, Wu Shao pursed his lips and sneered: "Don't look at it, this is an ordinary tree, it's just that it can survive for countless years through secret methods." The ancestor of the Lin family realized under this ancient tree and called himself Lin. ”
On the front of the ancient tree, there is a tree hole that is one zhang high and half a zhang wide, Wu Shao took Lin Cheng into the tree hole, and at the moment of entering the tree hole, Lin Cheng suddenly had a trance-like feeling, and when it was completely clear, he had come to an empty temple.
The temple is not big, and it is only the appearance of the temple, so it is more appropriate to say that it is a wooden house. There is no luxurious decoration in front of the palace, just loess, grass, everything is so simple, just like a simple farmhouse courtyard.
"Lin Feng took Tianxuan Forest City back to the Lin family, the task was completed, and he came to restore his life. "Five Shao, that is, Lin Feng put away his arrogant expression and didn't look at the step forward. Instead, he stood there in awe, respectfully saluting the empty hall.
There was a moment of calm in the main hall, and just when everyone thought that there was no one in the main hall, suddenly a deep and long sigh came from the main hall. After a while, a deep voice came out: "Lin Cheng, come to the ancestral hall." ”
"Yes. ”
Lin Cheng bowed slightly, and then walked towards the main hall with a calm expression, but in his heart, it was not calm for the first time in history.
However, the first step was nervous, the second part was apprehensive, the third step was indifferent and calm, and the fourth step, Lin Cheng had completely calmed down. All this will have to be faced sooner or later, and there is no escaping it.
Slowly walking into the main hall, the first thing that caught my eye was a statue, completely wood-carved, without any breath, and it was not perfect, and even with Lin Cheng's not picky eyes, it could be seen that the statue was carved in many places a little stiff.
Under the statue, which was more than a foot high, an old man with white hair sat cross-legged on his knees, his eyes slightly closed, and he was silent, and there was a futon in front of him.
Lin Cheng stepped forward and slowly sat on the futon, his face calm.
For a while, the hall was extremely quiet.
The ordinary hall, the ordinary statues, the ordinary looking old men, the old and the young sit opposite each other without the slightest words.
About a quarter of an hour later, the old man slowly opened his eyes, looked at Lin Cheng with a kind look in his eyes, and said in a calm voice: "Lin Cheng, the direct descendants of the Lin family! You can call me grandpa, if you still want to call me for a while." ”
Lin Cheng looked at the old man calmly and said calmly: "Listen up!"
The old man shook his head slightly and sighed, "You are completely opposite to your father's personality. ”
Then the old man looked out of the hall, with a look of memory in his eyes, and after a while, he slowly spoke: "I am your grandfather, Lin Chaofeng, and the current patriarch of the Lin family. Your father, Lin Zhendong, is my third son and the most talented son. ”
"A thousand years ago, your father Lin Zhendong returned to the peak of the void and went out to find an opportunity to advance to Yangshi. This walk is a thousand years...... , Until thirty years ago, your father returned to the Lin family, and he took a woman with him, an ordinary woman, only a woman who built a foundation and cultivated. ”
"As a big family, the first thing is the purity of the bloodline, and the nobility of the bloodline. Prior to this, your father already had an official Taoist couple, who was the pearl of the Feng family head of the Wind and Fire Clan. And have three children, namely your two older brothers and one older sister. It's just that when your father came back this time, he asked the family to give the woman an identity. But in the end, this issue was not negotiated, and there was constant noise within the Lin family. The woman was pregnant, and she was your mother!"
"The end result is that your mother was sent to the Celestial Star and infused all of her own vitality into you when she gave birth to you, causing her body to fall. You were forced to stay in the Heavenly Xuanxing, and your father returned to the family in a fit of rage, and he sank into the heart of the dead wood, and it has been thirty years now!"
After finishing speaking, the old man looked at Lin Cheng calmly, his eyes were neither happy nor sad.
Lin Cheng slowly closed his eyes, and his heart was twitching slightly, an irrepressible, convulsive pain, an empty pain!
Lin Chaofeng's narration was very bland, but it was this blandness that made Lin Cheng feel the pain beyond measure.
The mother died, and the father trapped himself in the heart of the dead wood under the grief, and this is the end of the parents.
My father had nothing to do, but he could only watch his mother die!
The mother knew that things with her father would not end well, and in the end, in order to give herself a good future, she passed on all her vitality to herself, leading to her own fall.
That's where I came from!
Tragic background!
And even more tragic is the end of the parents!
Slowly exhaling a breath of turbidity, Lin Cheng said, "The first question, why didn't anyone stop my mother from doing this at that time? Why didn't anyone give her the pill or heaven and earth treasure that replenished her vitality?"
Lin Chaofeng pondered for a moment, as if he had expected Lin Cheng to ask this question, and said calmly: "This is the best ending!"
Lin Cheng lowered his eyes slightly, intellectually he knew that this was the best ending for them. By sacrificing one's mother, the father's fellowship can be stopped. But it was his mother who sacrificed! Lin Cheng didn't want to accept this ending, and he didn't want to accept it!
Taking out the dragon blood incense, making a cup, and taking a slight sip, Lin Cheng reined in his heart and asked calmly, "Second question, why did you get me back now?"
Lin Chaofeng sighed slightly and said, "In your generation, the branch of the Lin family's direct line has gradually declined, and you ...... In the eyes of others, you may just be a somewhat mysterious Jindan period, but in my eyes, you are the Jindan stage that forged the sea of knowledge!"
"If it weren't for the suspicion that I had forged the sea of knowledge, wouldn't the Lin family have recalled me?"
"Yes! Laissez-faire is what keeps you alive! It's for your good!"
"I'm afraid not!"
Lin Cheng slowly stood up, his eyes looked down at Lin Chaofeng, and there was no trace of warmth in his calm voice: "Your story is a true story, but sending my mother to Tianxuan Star is not a coincidence in itself. The purpose of recalling me back is definitely not so simple! The Wind and Fire Forest Family, the Bapin Clan, there is no shortage of me!"
After saying that, he turned around and walked out without looking back.
Lin Chaofeng looked at Lin Cheng's back and said softly, "You are very smart!"
Lin Cheng's body did not pause at all, and continued to walk out.
"I'm going to give you a chance!"
Lin Cheng still didn't pause.
"I need you to win a battle!" Finally, Lin Chaofeng let out a long sigh.
Lin Cheng stood there slowly, but did not look back. In his heart, Lin Chaofeng is not his grandfather. His grandfather is the grandfather who raised himself in a small fishing village with hard work, and the grandfather who is holding a dry tobacco pouch and watching him play with a smile on his face.
"I need you to win a fight. If I win this battle, I'll find a way for you to meet your father. The Heart of Deadwood is not accessible to everyone, at least you can't, at least you can't!"
"Deal!Tell me the time and place, opponent!" Lin Cheng finally spoke. It was just a deal between him and Lin Chaofeng, but although he had never seen his father, he could feel his pain, and he wanted to see him.
"Time, three years later, in the middle of the stars, your opponent is all the Jindan monks!"
"Yes!"
"Don't you ask what kind of battle this is, don't you want to know what the victor will get?"
"No, because in order to see my father, I have to win, and besides, I will definitely win!" After finishing speaking, Lin Cheng stepped out of the tree hole, without any nostalgia for the ancestral house where the Wind and Fire Lin family regarded it as a holy land.
Because, this place is not your own!
