"Shao Yuan, An Lan, Yang Yao, Feng Ying, Liang Yu!"
Lin Xiao stood up and shouted five names in one breath.
Hearing this, the five middle-aged men who rushed in all froze on the spot, their eyes widened, and they looked at Lin Xiao with surprise on their faces.
Xu Hongtu on the side was also stunned and said in shock: "Brother Yun, how do you know the names of my five brothers?"
"brother?"
Lin Xiao felt something was wrong and asked, "Are you brothers?"
"Of course not!" Xu Hongtu waved his hand and said in a serious tone: "We are just sworn brothers, but compared to biological brothers, they are not far apart!"
"My name is Lin Shaoyuan. I am the twelfth member of the Lin family. This is the first time we meet. Please give me some advice!"
"My name is Lin Anlan, and I am the thirty-third member of the Lin family. I heard that you saved my second brother, which is such a great favor. Please accept my respect!"
"My name is Lin Yangyao, and I am the eighteenth member of the Lin family. My little brother is so young but is so powerful. It really makes me ashamed!"
"My name is Lin Ying, and I am the eighth in the Lin family. Is this my little brother's Taoist monk? It's true that he is a talented and beautiful woman, a perfect match!"
"My name is Lin Liangyu, and I am the youngest of the Lin family. I am ranked forty-second. If you are kind to your second brother, you are kind to the Lin family. If you need anything in the future, just speak up!"
Five middle-aged men were introduced one by one, their demeanor was particularly straightforward and forthright.
Lin Xiao looked at the five people in front of him, his eyebrows tightly knitted together.
The reason why he knows the names of the five people in front of him is very simple, because these five people are all Lin Xiao's former subordinates and are the leaders of the country!
But what puzzled Lin Xiao was that these five people were not originally named Lin, so why were they all changed to Lin?
Another point!
The five of them, like Xu Hongtu, had all forgotten about Lin Xiao!
"Six of you, can you do me a favor?"
After some thought to no avail, Lin Xiao suddenly looked at Xu Hongtu and the five middle-aged men.
"Brother Yun, it's okay to just say it." Xu Hongtu said calmly.
"Can you please sit quietly and completely empty your mind?" Lin Xiao said his request.
At the end, he added: "You can rest assured that I never want to harm you, I just want to... seek an answer!"
Lin Xiao deliberately emphasized the last two words.
His face was full of seriousness.
Seeing this, the six of them looked at each other, and finally followed Lin Xiao's request, sitting down cross-legged and completely emptying their minds.
Buzz buzz buzz...
As soon as the six people closed their eyes, Lin Xiao released the soul of Tianzun.
Immediately afterwards, six rays of soul power spread out and silently sank into the deepest parts of the six people's souls.
Lin Xiao did not use the soul-washing method.
Although with his attainments in the Soul Dao, he could easily obtain the lifelong memories of the six people without hurting them.
However, soul washing is like a sharp knife, cutting open every piece of flesh and blood on your body, then examining them one by one, and finally sewing them back together.
The whole process was full of humiliation and suffering.
Lin Xiao would certainly not be merciful to his enemies, but he would never be so cruel to his own people.
"Soul Dao - baptism of memory!"
As Lin Xiao uttered a word, the power of the soul spread out, wrapping the souls of the six people in an extremely gentle gesture.
Immediately, the soul power released by Lin Xiao was like flowing water waves, traveling throughout the six people's memories.
Once again!
Twice!
Three times!
…………
Ten times!
The power of the soul traveled ten times, and finally, Lin Xiao discovered something suspicious.
The memories of these six people are very complete. There is neither memory blockage nor partial memory deprivation. It can be said to be almost flawless.
However, Lin Xiao found a gap in the same memory node!
"If we push back the time, the time when this memory gap appeared happens to be...the so-called execution day!"
Lin Xiao's heart trembled.
He did not stop the power of his soul, on the contrary, he pushed it to the extreme.
"Soul Dao - memory reversal!"
Lin Xiao covered the gap with the power of his soul. The gap that had no memory gradually bloomed with brilliance, and finally condensed into a complete memory fragment.
Swish!
Six huge memories suddenly appeared in Lin Xiao's field of vision!
At this moment, Lin Xiao understood a lot!
simply put.
The six people in front of me are indeed Lin Xiao's old subordinates.
The main reason why they forgot Lin Xiao was because the memories of the six of them were overwritten by other memories by a master who was proficient in the soul path.
That gap is the trace covered by memory.
Since the original memories have been overwritten, the six people will naturally not remember what happened before, let alone have any memories.
Unless someone unblocks the previous memory, the six people will live with a new identity according to the substitute memory until the day they die from birth, old age, illness and death.
"Memory replacement is an extremely complex soul path secret method."
"The caster must not only be prepared to replace the memory, but also maintain a high degree of concentration during the process of replacing the memory. If you make a slight mistake, you will suffer serious backlash."
"However, the benefits of memory replacement are obvious. Since the original memory is completely covered, even the person involved is not aware of it. In this way, even if someone uses the soul-washing technique, the original memory will not be discovered, let alone
There are signs that the memory is not smooth or has been tampered with."
"As for this small gap, unless you practice the Soul Dao to the extreme and check the integrity of the memory many times in a row, it is basically impossible to find it."
"As far as I know, there are less than ten fingers in the entire heaven who can reach this level!"
While muttering, Lin Xiao thought of a possibility.
Could it be the evil sword that used memory replacement on these six people?
Based on Lin Xiao's understanding of the evil sword and his attainments in the Soul Dao, he was completely able to achieve this level.
It is possible that Xie Jian sent them away from the Supreme Sword Sect in order to preserve Lin Xiao's old subordinates by stealing dragons and turning them into phoenixes, and then gave them new identities to continue living in the heaven.
Those who were executed that day were just bait.
Afterwards, the three great gods discovered the clues and felt that the evil sword was difficult to control, so they froze him and pretended to be an evil sword to continue to lure Lin Xiao to the bait.
"For now, this is the most reasonable inference!"
After smoothing things out, Lin Xiao felt relieved.
What he worries most about is that his former brothers will die tragically or suffer endless torture because of him.
Now, six people from Xu Hongtu appeared in front of Lin Xiao alive and kicking.
This is the greatest comfort to Lin Xiao!
Furthermore, Lin Xiao also figured something out.
The six people in Xu Hongtu each have their own surnames, but at this moment, they all have the surname Lin.
And the surname Lin happens to be Lin Xiao’s surname! (To be continued)
