Chapter Fifteen: Brush Your Clothes and Go (Part 2)
The firewood gate is still wide open! But the chickens that used to forage in the garden have disappeared!
Only the two stone locks under the tree were lying there quietly, seeming to have words but unable to express them!
Yi Lin, with the yellow dog, just stood quietly at the firewood gate! But his heart was rolling like a stormy sea! The hand holding the fence was trembling slightly, but where did the hearty laughter go?
Yi Lin looked at everything in the courtyard, which seemed familiar yet strange! Only the sound of corn stalks blown by the wind still sounded in his ears!
Yi Lin's heart felt as heavy as iron for a moment, and a sense of powerlessness quickly passed through his body, and the luggage on his shoulders slipped silently!
The young man gritted his teeth, then quickly pushed open the half-open door, and hurriedly walked into the east side room. Maybe the old man was resting?!
Yi Lin had already broken into the back room on the east side. Without waiting for a closer look, he shouted, "Grandpa, I'm back, I--"
Seeing that there was still no one in the empty room, the trace of hope turned into despair in an instant! It made the young man's mind change drastically!
Yi Lin stared blankly at the kang. The quilts had already been piled in the corner, but along the edge of the kang, there seemed to be a figure of grandpa appearing and disappearing suddenly!
Yi Lin leaned against the wall limply, but two lines of hot tears slid down his handsome face in an instant, soaking his clothes and disturbing his mind!
"Grandpa, Dalinzi has finished his exam and has gone home. I'm back!" Yi Lin looked helplessly at the roof while murmuring.
His eyes were dim, and the light in his eyes seemed to have disappeared. He just saw that the simple furniture in the room had fallen to the ground casually, but no one was helping him! The pots in the main room were still there, but the furnace had long been cool, and there were actually some spiders.
Threads are floating in the house!
Grandpa has been away for a few days, right? Suddenly, a huge fear suddenly hit the young man's heart. His breathing gradually became rapid, and he immediately rushed into the west room again. What he saw was only messy bedding and quilts.
were scattered on the ground, but there was still no one!
"Where can Grandpa go?" Yi Lin sat on the stone lock under the big tree outside the house, stroking the dog gently with his hand, and murmured to himself!
The dog rubbed the young man's legs and feet from time to time, as if he had something to say, but Yi Lin just stared into the distance with blank eyes, not even noticing the spirit dog lingering under his knees!
"There were no signs of fighting or blood in the house. Although things were messy, nothing was missing!" Yi Lin looked at the vast Gobi Desert outside the small courtyard and asked in his mind, "What on earth happened?"
The only answers Yi Lin received were a few clear calls from the magpie on the tree and the plaintive cry of the dog!
"What the hell is going on! ---" Yi Lin stood up suddenly, but suddenly became furious! From the moment he entered the courtyard, the young man's suppressed emotions finally burst out!
The angry Yi Lin violently grabbed the stone lock on the ground and threw it out. Then he grabbed another stone lock and threw it high. When the stone lock was about to fall, Yi Lin didn't even look at it.
He just raised his leg and swept away in anger! The stone lock had already been shattered with a "pop" sound and scattered everywhere!
The dog that was originally wandering around Yi Lin, now let out a "wow" and nimbly turned around with its tail between its legs and ran into the house under the stove!
The dog hiding under the stove could only watch in horror and sadness as the young man who had lost control of his body was killing everyone, and could only tremble non-stop!
The spirit dog knew that Yi Lin was in a rage. In his rage, Yi Lin wouldn't mind making himself into a dog meat hot pot, would he?! The dog thought so -
It was late at night, and the wind finally picked up in the Gobi. The wind was strong enough to gather the clouds in the night sky! Countless clouds gathered together, and in a short time it was already overcast!
The strong wind then picked up, and the large raindrops pitter-pattered on the roof, as if they were about to break through the thatched roof!
The wind blew the big trees outside the house swaying, the fence rattled? The firewood door opened and closed vigorously, as if it was about to fly away from the fixed door shaft, to the other side, above the clouds!
Yi Lin just sat quietly, just sitting like that, his figures scattered but gathered together! His eyes were staring at one place, as if he was meditating, as if he was missing, as if he was daydreaming!
The rain in late summer is always like this. It comes and goes quickly. After a sudden gust of wind, everything returns to calm. It was calm outside the house, but Yi Lin, who was sitting in the main room, started to move. As soon as his body moved, he got up immediately!
But he shouted, "Who is it!"
The wind was still howling, and although it was pitch dark in the small courtyard, there was a man standing with a gray beard and a thin figure!
This old figure seemed to suddenly appear from the night, just to take a look at the young man! For some reason, there seemed to be a bright light flashing in the corner of the old man's eyes at this time?
The old man looked kindly at the young man who had already rushed out of the door! But he nodded slightly and sighed in his heart, he was just like Zi Qian when he was a boy, but this agility seemed to be that of Luo Xi!
The reverie that had gone away seemed to come back to me, and the young man was already standing in front of the old man!
Yi Lin did not distinguish whether the person coming was an enemy or a friend. He pondered for a moment, but secretly gathered his consciousness to be on guard. Then he raised his head and shouted softly, "Who are you? What are you doing here?"
The old man smiled, but nodded and said, "Have you established the foundation?"
Yi Lin was stunned for a moment, but did not answer. He still looked at the uninvited guest warily!
The old man sighed, but said, "I am Yi Lao's friend. I came to visit late at night just to--see you!"
Yi Lin's face fell, but he suddenly said, "Do you know me?"
The old man nodded, "Yes, I hugged you when you were just born!" But when the old man said "hug", for some reason, there was a deep sadness in it!
Yi Lin's eyes flashed, but he said, "Are you from Taoyuan?"
"Oh? Do you know Taoyuan?"
"I heard my grandpa mention it occasionally."
"Haha, what did Yi Lao say?"
"Grandpa didn't say anything, he just said that Taoyuanli seems to have something to do with me -"
"Yes, what Mr. Yi said is right. The secret realm of Taoyuan is indeed closely related to you!" The old man looked at the young man quietly, nodded and said, "It's just that the time has not come, the secret has not been revealed, and many things are undesirable.
You know, it’s just that the time has not come!”
"Tianji, Tianji, I believe you are a big-headed ghost!" Yi Lin was complaining in his heart, "How can there be so many Tianjis, all of them pretending to be gods and ghosts!" The young man curled up the corners of his handsome lips, but stopped talking to him.
!
"Oh, you don't believe it?" The old man understood Yi Lin's expression when he saw it. "This kid, even his dismissive little expression, is exactly the same as Luo Xi back then." The old man sighed in his heart.
, but he said, "It doesn't matter if you don't believe it. One day, you are going to go to the secret realm of Taoyuan!"
Yi Lin blinked, but suddenly asked, "Do you know where my grandpa went?"
"Yi Lao, he has completed his mission and has returned!"
"Ah!" Yi Lin's face changed drastically, "You, you mean, grandpa, he, he, he has already -"
"No, no, no, kid, you are wrong. Mr. Yi is a member of the Ling Sect, a god-like figure. He is involved in this world just for you. You are the cause and effect of his old man!"
"Oh! Cause and effect -" Yi Lin nodded, but his heart felt relaxed for a while, but he looked at the old man and suddenly asked, "You said you came to see me, could it be that there is cause and effect between you and me?"
in?"
"Hahaha, what an eccentric child, as expected - it's you!"
"how?"
"Yes, there is a huge connection between you and me. Come on, come on, good boy, don't be so nervous. Come over here and I will talk to you in detail."
"Tell me who you are first?"
"Oh, I didn't say that?"
Yi Lin curled his lips and said, "You didn't say that!"
"Oh, remember, I am a member of the Taoyuan lineage, and I am now the elder of Qianxin Hall!"
"Is Qianxintang selling medicine?" Yi Lin teased,
"Nonsense, you kid. The Qianxin Hall is where disciples of the Taoyuan lineage study. It is equivalent to, well, equivalent to your county, but," the old man looked at the endless night sky and said, "
It’s just that the teaching is based on cultivation, so this is different!”
"Yeah, I got it."
The old man looked at Yi Lin with relief, but continued, "My surname is Murong. You, please, call me grandpa——"
It's dawn and Elder Murong has already left!
Yi Lin returned to the house and looked at the furnishings in the house. The messy items were still scattered everywhere! The young man finally bent down to put them away! But there seemed to be something troubling his mind next to the stove!
Yi Lin walked over, picked up a small wooden knife from the stove, and stroked it gently. The young man's eyes were full of tenderness!
The wooden knife is not big, just over half a meter long. However, it has been a long time and the blade has turned black and is covered with dry and cracked veins!
Yi Lin clearly remembered that this small wooden knife was made by his grandfather himself during the year when he was practicing his sword skills!
Yi Lin can still recall the time when his grandfather taught him step by step the "Night Fighting Eight Directions Hidden Sword Style"!
At that time, my grandpa just demonstrated it once, but I learned it immediately! ~ When I was dancing and playing with the wooden knife, I peeked at my grandpa, and the smile and satisfaction in my grandpa's eyes were as real as the real thing!
However, when the wooden knife was replaced by a steel knife, the small wooden knife was placed in a niche on the north wall of the east room. No one has touched it for ten years - tonight, it stood unexpectedly next to the stove in the main room.
Appear on the ground!
Yi Lin picked up the small wooden knife, and then made a sword dance, and the evil smile appeared on the corner of his mouth again! "I don't care why grandpa left, and I don't care what the purpose of the person behind it is."
! In short, I will find you - no matter where you are!" After Yi Lin finished speaking, he shouted loudly, and the wooden knife struck the stove like lightning. There was only a snap sound, and the stove made of bluestone was heard.
The table was like tofu, with a fist-sized corner cut off and flying to the ground————
One early morning three days later, there was no wind and few clouds in the desert, making it easy to travel.
A big lock locked this house and this small courtyard. The rising sun in the east was like fire, and the Gobi desert in front of me was like blood. There was a man and a dog walking on the desert. Under the sunlight, the long figure was like
Gradually it stretched into the distance.
But on the neck of the spirit dog, there is a strange and ingenious thing that is neither gold nor jade. It looks like a dragonfly and looks up to the sky like a spray of water!
The peacock flies southeast just because there are tall buildings in the northwest!
In the past few days, the rain in the south of the Yangtze River has been pouring non-stop! Like listening to the rain under the sycamore tree, holding an umbrella on the bluestone road, blurring the mist and rain, after all, it is not as good as sitting in the pavilion for a long time, drinking lightly and carefully! Look at that
People are coming and going on the street, the world is busy - just a few taels of silver!
On the bank of the West Lake, beside the broken bridge corridor, there are several women walking together in a group at this time! The women are either whispering or smiling! But among the group of women, there is a very beautiful woman, who is as pretty as a green lotus in the lake.
Standing among the crowd, she is gorgeous but not in a crowd, with just a slight frown on her brows, but her face seems cold!
Looking carefully, it is the girl who was drinking tea at the teahouse by the ancient pagoda bamboo forest that day. Today, the girl seems to be traveling far away. It is just the wind and rain in the south of the Yangtze River, but can she fly away?
"Jiuer", a soft call came, and I saw a woman in red walking slowly holding an umbrella. As soon as she got closer, she suddenly gently grabbed the woman's sleeve! But the woman frowned.
I don't know why, but there is a look of boredom on my face!
The beautiful woman's sleeves shook slightly and she avoided it. Then she put her hands behind her back and asked, "Sister, what's your advice?!"
The woman in red smiled, knowing that she had a clean nature. Although she was sneering in her heart, her face seemed to be unconcerned. She just continued, "Junior sister, we are going to S Province. Although the journey is far, it only takes day and night. It's just a desert.
There are always dangers in the Gobi, alas——"
The woman in red sighed, but continued, "You must pay attention to safety when you go -"
"Thank you, Senior Sister, for your concern. Jiu'er understands it. But since the elders in the sect have judged that the person is about to be born, as a walking member of the sect this year, I have to go and have a look!"
"What's more -" this beautiful woman's eyes showed indifferent disdain, "It's just a remote place in a poor country, how can there be such a master!"
All the girls were silent!
The gentle breeze brings rain, and the rain falls in the south of the Yangtze River. There are more and more people walking on the broken bridge. At this time, there are a few tired idlers, swaying from east to west, drunkenly supporting each other, dancing and shouting from there.
Come on the bridge!
Just when these people were gesticulating with their breasts exposed, they suddenly looked up and saw several women on the corridor with various manners, and they suddenly felt the intention of teasing! They all rushed forward, but the women's mouths were still dirty.
He yelled, "Where's the girl? Brother, let's take you to swim in the West Lake."
"Go away, what age are you still swimming in the lake? Sister, don't listen to him, call me brother, brother, brother will take you to the mall, what are the good things? I want brother to buy it for you, hahaha——"
A man with a skull tattooed on his chest became more and more excited as he talked. Unknowingly, he was approaching the extremely beautiful woman named "Jiu'er" and reached out to grab her shoulder!
The anger in the woman's eyes flashed away, and she moved slightly, and then she saw the man let out a scream, and saw a fat hand flying out from his wrist in an instant, drawing a bright line of blood in the air.
Behind the line, fell into the West Lake——
Those idle men were all shocked and looked like chickens!
The woman named Jiu'er still frowned slightly at this time. She looked at the vast mist on the lake as calmly as a cloud, but put her hands behind her back. There seemed to be a flash of sternness in her eyes, and then she turned away.
He said calmly, "Quickly inform the miscellaneous office in the door to handle the matter!"
After saying that, he drifted away! This chapter has been completed!
