After leaving Xi'an, Lin Heng continued to go west. Along the way, whenever he went to a large place, he would ask if there were any skilled warriors. If there were any, he would go and challenge them.
For these challenged people, if they are easy to get along with, like white tigers, Lin Heng will stay for a few more days to discuss martial arts with them and increase his knowledge; if they are not easy to get along with, Lin Heng will retreat after defeating them.
leave.
In summary, although his journey has not been long, he has gone through twenty or thirty competitions.
Of course, Lin Heng doesn't just compete with these people. He will also challenge and kill some evil figures. Where there are bandits among them, he will directly enter their lairs and eradicate them.
These guys who endanger one side.
Lin Heng's approach brought Lin Heng a lot of fame, especially when everyone knew that he was a disciple of the Quanzhen Sect, this reputation became even louder.
On this day, Lin Heng came to Zhengzhou. As soon as he came here, he heard that there was a group of extremely vicious bandits here. Immediately, Lin Heng wanted to eradicate them, but after asking around, he knew that this group of bandits would not be easy to deal with.
This group of bandits outside Zhengzhou has a size of more than 300 people. This is still reduced. Before, they had a size of thousands. This is definitely a very large group of bandits, and they can be regarded as a fierce bandit.
Moreover, Lin Heng was no stranger to the former leader of this group of gangsters, that was Peng Lianhu, who served under Wanyan Honglie.
Peng Lianhu is known as the Thousand-Handed Man-Slayer. He is a famous ruthless figure in the world. He is also very resourceful and difficult to deal with. This can be seen from the original work. However, the leader of this group of bandits has long been replaced. Lin Heng
There is no need to worry too much. However, the number of more than 300 people really gives him a headache.
"It seems that some special means will be used this time!"
After muttering to himself, Lin Heng walked to a winery in Zhengzhou City, where he bought an ox cart and loaded it with a cart of wine. He pulled the wine and slowly walked out of the city.
He opened the wine jars one by one and put intoxicants to enhance the aroma of the wine. After doing this, Lin Heng sat on the bullock cart and walked slowly in the direction of the bandits.
Walking on the road, Lin Heng seemed to be unconcerned, but he kept observing his surroundings carefully. Soon he discovered that there were many people hiding in the grass on both sides. He knew that these must be those
Bandit.
Lin Heng did not dare to be careless, so he immediately picked up the long sword, walked to the ox cart, and pulled the ox cart forward with his own hands.
The bandits saw Lin Heng's movements, but there were so many of them that they didn't care at all. They immediately rushed out and surrounded Lin Heng. Lin Heng didn't run away, but immediately clasped his fists and said: "Brothers, why don't you come out to make a living?"
Easy, I have some money here, please let all brothers clear the way!" With that, he took out two large silver ingots from his arms and threw them over. The robbers' eyes lit up when they saw the silver ingots, and the leader among them
He even greeted everyone directly. Immediately, they raised their swords and chopped at him without saying a word.
Seeing this, Lin Heng immediately drew out his long sword and fought back, but he did not dare to act aggressively in order to avoid scaring away the bandits. He fought and retreated, and killed several people in time, so that they did not dare to pursue too much. When he
When he retreated into the grass, he turned around and ran away. After chasing for a while, the bandits realized that they could not catch up with Lin Heng, so they stopped.
Seeing the bandits walking back one by one, Lin Heng also found a place to hide, followed them quietly, and followed them into the village.
Here, the bandits opened up their harvest, and the strong aroma of the wine made them all whet their appetites. The leader of the bandits shouted directly, and then everyone in the village began to have a carnival.
It's just that they don't know that this wine will be their life-affirming medicine.
The drug Lin Heng put into the wine this time was not an ordinary drug, but a very soothing drug. Although this kind of drug makes people sleepy after being consumed, its effect is very gentle, so
Like modern sleeping pills.
In the evening, the bandits fell asleep one by one, and Lin Heng slowly walked over. It was impossible for him to kill all of the more than 300 people, but...how to deal with them?
Lin Zhongzhong couldn't decide what to pay attention to, so he could only keep wandering around the cottage. Soon, he found a lot of things, including a lot of gold, silver and jewelry. Of course, Lin Heng's biggest gain was not these, but his
Rescued many people kidnapped by bandits, most of whom were women. These women had been ruined by the bandits. Their eyes were blank and their faces were pale. They only showed their faces when Lin Heng said, "You can take revenge."
expression, but it was an expression of hatred.
So next, a feast of killing began. These women, at this moment, turned into Shura gods, and each one of them, regardless of the blood, slashed the bandits with their knives. Before long, more than three hundred bandits were completely slaughtered by this woman
Once it was empty, the entire village was instantly filled with the smell of blood.
Under the dark night sky, the strong smell of blood coupled with the sounds of vomiting gave the entire village an evil atmosphere. This atmosphere made Lin Heng very unhappy. He confessed twice
, after dividing the robbers' treasure with them, they quickly left the place.
If you join the Jianghu, you will definitely kill, but so much killing makes Lin Heng very uncomfortable. He can't imagine that if the Jianghu is like this, then how cruel the killing on the battlefield will be?
What was originally an act of chivalry cast a shadow on Lin Heng's heart.
This shadow is not only reflected on his face, but also in his actions. Look at his next challenge. He doesn't talk much every time. He just competes and leaves after winning. He looks like this.
It makes people feel very rude, especially when some people want to make friends with him, and he gives him a cold face. How will it end?
But Lin Heng was completely unaware of all this. He only knew that he was feeling very unhappy and wanted to vent his anger. Therefore, during the competition, he struck harder and harder, and sometimes he could not hold back his hand and even hurt people.
Fortunately, time can smooth everything. When Lin Heng passed this hurdle, he also returned to his previous mood. He knew that his actions some time ago would definitely cause trouble, so he immediately walked back to find those who had been killed by him.
Apologize to those who challenge you, and enthusiastically discuss martial arts with them to make progress together.
He was like this, which made people feel helpless. At least those who were angry were no longer angry, and those who wanted to make friends with him also tried to talk and discuss with him, and in the end they became familiar with him.
After all this was done, Lin Heng did not continue the challenge, but entered the mountain alone.
What happened this time really touched Lin Heng a lot. He didn't know how to express this feeling, but he knew that after this incident, he had become more mature. This kind of maturity could allow him to calm down the turmoil.
Feeling like this, summarize what you have gained recently.
Every competition will definitely bring something to fruition, especially for a novice like Lin Heng. Therefore, after a period of competition, he will definitely need time to summarize, and this time it will give
gave him a chance.
This is the reason why Lin Heng entered the mountains.
This is an unknown mountain, not very high. If you stand at the foot of the mountain, you can see the scenery at the top of the mountain. Lin Heng chose this place entirely because it is the only mountain in the surrounding area.
Step by step, he slowly climbed to the top of the mountain. To his surprise, there was a Taoist temple here.
"Sanqing Temple..." Lin Heng said with a slight frown, "Is there anyone in the temple?"
From the outside, the Sanqing Temple looked very dilapidated, but there was not much dust on the door, which was obviously due to the back and forth opening and closing. No, after Lin Heng exited, an old Taoist priest walked out slowly. He saw
Lin Heng looked up and down in surprise. When he saw the long sword in his hand, he showed a clear expression and said: "Since you are here, little brother, let's come in and have a rest."
"Thank you, Taoist Master!" Lin Heng immediately clasped his fists and followed the old Taoist priest into the Taoist temple.
Sanqing Temple is not big, it can be said to be very small. It has a main hall, and behind the main hall is a guest room, where the old Taoist priest lives. This is the first time Lin Heng has seen such a simple Taoist temple.
"Taoist Master, here you are..."
"Haha... Xianyun Ye Dao is naturally a bit cruder." The old Taoist priest seemed to have seen through Lin Heng's thoughts and said to himself: "Although my place is crude, there are still a lot of good things. I see that you are wearing a Taoist robe, so you should
He is also a Taoist disciple."
"Yes, I am a disciple of the Quanzhen Sect." Lin Heng immediately revealed his identity.
The old Taoist priest nodded after hearing this and said: "Yes, yes, since we are both Taoists, then you can come with me to see my collection."
As he said that, the old Taoist priest crossed the hall and came to the Sanqing Temple. Lin Heng was surprised, but he also walked over. When he came over, he saw that there was a large space behind the Sanqing Temple.
, these places are now filled with small boxes, stacked one on top of the other.
Lin Heng asked the old Taoist priest: "Taoist Master, these are..."
"These are the classics I have collected for many years..." While explaining, the old Taoist priest opened one of the small boxes and took out several books. Lin Heng's sharp eyes saw at a glance the three characters of Tao Te Ching written on it. Just
, he was quite surprised that these volumes were all Tao Te Ching. "One of these three volumes of Tao Te Ching was left by my master, one is my own, and the other is one I got from outside.
Don’t underestimate these three volumes of the Tao Te Ching. Each of them contains our own understandings, especially the one I got. It is said to be written by a real Taoist, do you want to read it?”
Temptation, naked temptation!
Lin Heng looked at the smiling face of the old Taoist priest and lamented in his heart. But who is this old Taoist priest and why does he do this? Moreover, does he know martial arts?
Lin Heng was surprised and looked at the old Taoist priest carefully. However, after looking for a long time, he could not see any flaws. It seemed that the old Taoist priest was just an ordinary person.
"Has he reached the state of returning to his original nature?"
Lin Heng was startled by the sudden thought. He immediately shook his head, thinking it was impossible, because judging from the expression on the old Taoist priest's face, he was obviously in poor health. If he was really a hidden master, there would be no such thing.
Such a look on his face.
Thinking of this, Lin Heng said: "Thank you so much, kid!"
