Lin Zhengren has been practicing in the National Taoist Academy, and he rarely comes back to the Lin family in Wangjiang City.
How cautious does one have to be to set up a formation in a room that they don't usually live in? There are two of them as soon as they are arranged!
He is only afraid that something will happen to him all the time, and he always reserves a way out for himself.
If it hadn't been for the sudden encounter tonight, Jiang Wang believed that it would be difficult for him to catch Lin Zhengren. Lin Zhengren is so cunning and cautious.
If dealing with ordinary opponents, the first water dragon formation is enough.
Used today, it can still attract Jiang Wang's attention and buy time for Lin Zhengren.
The wall of water flow and the cultivation corner are a perfect match.
If it were any other strong person that Cultivated Corner could contact, Jiang Wang could have chosen to break the formation quickly, kill people, and then leave calmly.
But if that person is Du Ruhui...
Jiang Wang had to sigh.
Apart from anything else, having a strong man like Du Ruhui who is so far away and who cares about his family and country is simply a great blessing for the country of Zhuang!
How many strong men can one person use!
"If you don't believe it, you can make a bet on whether I can really contact the Prime Minister immediately. If you win the bet, kill me without any benefit. If you lose the bet, welcome the pursuit of the Prime Minister and give me your life. Pay!"
Lin Zhengren looked directly at Jiang Wang: "Sir, do you want to take a bet?"
He actually had a few protective magic weapons on him, but they were not of sufficient quality to make the other party more cautious, so he did not use them as bargaining chips. On the contrary, if you continue to hide, you might be able to cope with the unexpected.
"Then why haven't you activated it yet?" Jiang Wang also looked into Lin Zhengren's eyes.
Both sides are testing the resolve of their opponents.
Although in terms of strength, Lin Zhengren is no longer a match for Jiang Wang. But with his ruthlessness and caution, he once again won the right to fight!
"It is not easy to make a plowing corner. Without great achievements, there will be no more. I have already lost a lot tonight and I don’t want to lose it again."
Lin Zhengren said slowly: "However, considering the duration of the wall of water flow at this intensity. After ten breaths at most, I will directly play the cultivation angle."
He turned to look at Jiang Wang, even though he couldn't see Jiang Wang's face through the mountain ghost mask, he seemed to have the image of him wearing the mountain ghost mask firmly engraved in his heart: "Now it's your choice. Should you stay here and try to kill me, or should you run away immediately?"
Jiang Wang was silent.
Time passes slowly but resolutely.
The two people facing each other in silence across the wall of running water.
Eight breaths, seven breaths, six breaths...three breaths...
Jiang Wang raised his hand high, and the flames in his palm directly blasted a huge hole in the roof. He then flew away from the hole without saying a word.
Lin Zhengren was indeed a formidable opponent, but it was not worth risking Jiang Wang's life.
He chose to give up.
…
The mysterious man wearing the mountain ghost mask finally left.
Lin Zhengren was alone in the room in silence for a long time, and then finally breathed a sigh of relief, took a few steps back, and fell down on the chair.
Tonight was probably the biggest crisis he had ever faced in his life, because there was no preparation at all, a sudden encounter, sudden hostility, and the opponent had the strength advantage to crush him.
But he finally passed through this terrible crisis.
Even if... the price paid is so heavy.
In the deserted room, Lin Zhengren closed his eyes and forced back a tear that was about to come out.
Sad?
No matter how useless Lin Zhengli was, no matter how evil-minded he was, he was still his biological brother. The two grew up together, and of course there were times when they were innocent. There was a time when brothers and sisters were truly respectful...
How could you not be sad?
But Lin Zhengren only allowed his sadness to stay at that moment, because tonight was not over yet.
He opened his eyes, stood up and walked out, his expression becoming very calm.
When he reached the door, he stopped.
Because outside the door, stood a gray-haired old man holding a cane.
The Lin family has always been the patriarch of the clan, his biological grandfather.
Lin Zhengren opened his mouth: "Grandpa."
He was a precocious man, and he looked down on his father from a very young age. His name is Lin Duanxing, but he has neither good manners nor conduct. Apart from drinking and playing with women, he knows nothing but nothing.
The person he has been closest to since childhood is the white-haired old man in front of him, his grandfather.
Grandpa is a very capable person. It was in the hands of Grandpa that the once penniless Lin family in Wangjiang City grew up and became the first among all the surnames in Wangjiang City.
Perhaps he was too disappointed with Lin Duanxing. His grandfather was personally responsible for his and his younger brother's education since childhood.
People's hearts, tactics, business... He learned a lot from this old man.
Compared with the irresponsible Lin Duanxing, grandpa really devoted his whole life to the family.
The white-haired old man stood alone outside the door of Lin Zhengren's room without any entourage.
When the Lin clan members surrounded the courtyard and shouted at Jiang Wang, he did not show up.
When Lin Zhengli was forced to jump into the well, he did not show up.
But at this moment, Lin Zhengren appeared outside his room.
If anyone in the entire Lin family can truly understand Lin Zhengren, he is the only one who is the grandfather.
He looked at Lin Zhengren, his cloudy eyes filled with wisdom bestowed by time.
"Have you thought about it?" he asked.
Lin Zhengren was silent.
Although he was determined, he still hesitated in front of his grandfather.
"Let me ask you, have you thought about it?" The old man tapped the ground lightly with his stick to express his urging.
Lin Zhengren lowered his head and raised it again, his eyes firming up: "Grandpa, I can't bear such a reputation."
"Zhengren, on the one hand, I am very disappointed in you. On the other hand, I am very satisfied with you."
The old man's white hair trembled slightly in the night wind, and his expression was a little sad: "I look forward to your future, and at the same time I am sad for Zhengli. Although he is not as good as you in everything, he is not even as cruel as you."
"Grandpa..." Lin Zhengren opened his mouth.
The old man raised his hand to interrupt him: "Go ahead and make the choice you think is right. Duanxing is over there and I will handle it. Patricide... will be punished by God."
They all understood that once Lin Zhengren forced to kill his own brother in the face of danger was exposed, Lin Zhengren would have no future in the National Academy of Sciences.
No matter how dark and dirty the world is, everyone needs to see the sunshine at least during the day.
And with so many people here tonight, it's hard to keep the secret. With Lin Duanxing's character, don't expect him to consider the "overall situation." So there is really only one choice...
This choice was both the reason for the old man's disappointment and his satisfaction.
Lin Zhengren gritted his teeth, turned around and walked out.
"Lin Zhengren." The old man said from behind him: "Never forget what the Lin family has paid for you. Never forget that your surname is Lin. Under the Nine Springs, I want to see a radiant Lin family!"
Lin Zhengren only paused for a moment before continuing to move forward.
…
That night.
A demon broke into Wangjiang City Taoist Temple at night and forced him to use the Taoist technique of rotten wood. At that time, Lin Zhengren, one of the Six Elites of the National Academy of Sciences, also participated in the hunt for the demon.
Unexpectedly, the demon would sneak into the Lin clan and kill the entire Lin family in Wangjiang City.
