The sun was rising on the branches, and at three o'clock in the afternoon, he suddenly woke up.
Perhaps his nerves were too tight these past few days, which caused him to fall asleep with this smelly pigskin on his pillow.
The pigskin had been stored for several days, and gradually there was a foul smell. He lit a fire and burned the pigskin. Then he walked outside the cave and killed a black bear, skinning it and getting some bear meat. , and threw the other bear bodies in the wild, attracting wild wolves to bite them.
Perhaps it was masked by the smell of animal blood, and his breath-holding technique allowed him to truly transform into a beast, lurking in the cave.
There was no sun or moon in the mountains, and in the blink of an eye, two years had passed.
During this period of time, he has broken through the ninth level of Qi training and is only one step away from the foundation building stage.
Breaking through the foundation building stage will lead to heavenly tribulation. Only by accepting the baptism of thunder and lightning can one truly become a practitioner in the foundation building stage.
But the catastrophe has not yet come, so he is ready to leave the seclusion, leave here, take the faith of Lin Xiaowu and Lin Dongzhi with him, and walk to the end of the world with his sword.
By the way, he also helped Lin Xiyao find clues to the ancient mirror and unravel the culprit that trapped her in the void space more than two thousand years ago.
Two years is enough time to wash away a lot of things, and even make many things turn around.
He didn't know whether the three people had left this area, nor did he know how patient they were, or whether they had placed spies to guard the mountains.
Therefore, he was still cautious and made a tiger robe from a tiger skin and put it on his body to cover up his aura.
He climbed over the mountains and ridges, and went back to watch the stars.
Time has passed, and the Star-Zhaing Temple has become much dilapidated, with cobwebs all over the place and dust covering the ground.
The relics left behind by the explosion have faded away under the wash of time.
Under the premise of losing the mountain-protecting formation, the Liao Fang built in the shape of a snail for the disciples of the mountain gate to practice has long lost its spirituality. Without a house sign, one can enter the room with a gentle push.
He rummaged through the rooms on both sides of Qiankun and found five spiritual stones, which made him very excited.
After putting away the spirit stones, there was another bag of silver in his hand, about fifty taels.
I put on my tiger robe and went to the back mountain. In the back mountain cemetery, there are dozens of tombs standing in the wind. They have been exposed to the wind and sun. There are no epitaphs, only sadness in their eyes.
The proud man of heaven, who was once full of fighting spirit, passionate and proud, was forever buried in this small back mountain, forever submerged by the long river of time. Before he started to shine, he sadly left the scene, and no one knew about it.
No one has been to the Houshan Cemetery for a long time, and the footprints on the ground have been smoothed away by time, leaving no trace.
On the edge of the cliff in the back mountain, there is a huge pit about two feet wide. From the bottomless pit, we can see how powerful the explosion in the cave was. It even directly caused the explosion above. The ground has sunk deeply.
The cemetery is far from the edge of the cliff, so although it was not affected, it still had an impact.
It may not even take long before everything here collapses.
Lin Jingzhe sighed, put on his tiger skin robe, and left. There was nothing he could do about everything here, and he didn't want to change it, so he just let it be.
On the way back from the back mountain, he picked up a fast jade pendant. On the front of the jade pendant was engraved the word "五". He had some impression of this fast jade pendant and murmured in his heart: "It can't be the belt of Fifth Senior Sister."
Opening the back of the jade pendant, it turned out that the word "kun" was engraved on it.
Qian refers to Yang and Kun refers to Yin, which is the difference between male and female.
"Sure enough, it is Senior Sister Wu's waistband. She should have thrown it away, but this waistband looks valuable, so I should be able to exchange it for some money."
He put the waistband and the spirit stone together, then opened his legs and left the lonely peak.
He quietly returned to Bailu Village without revealing his whereabouts.
Bailu Village is peaceful and prosperous.
He once promised Lin Xiaowu to go back to Bailu Village to say final farewell to the village chief and others, but now is not the time because he is worried that the three people who are thinking about his treasure will arrange for their spies to be placed in Bailu Village. .
After leaving Bailu Village, he went to Yelou Town and took back Lin Xiaowu's ashes from the Yamen.
Two years ago, he wanted to temporarily store Lin Xiaowu's ashes in the Yamen. Unexpectedly, an unexpected incident forced him to come back two years later.
He had already changed out of his tiger fur coat and put on a Taoist robe, but he did not shave off his beard, but used a long beard to cover up his appearance.
He checked into Yuelai Inn, then bought a lot of talisman paper and cinnabar, and then prepared to make new talismans and prepare summoning thunder talisman and gathering spirit talisman.
Although he knew the Five Elements Escape Talisman by heart, this was the first time he drew the talisman, so he had to choose the Earth Escape Talisman as an experiment.
After discarding hundreds of talisman papers, he finally drew an earth escape talisman. He felt very dissatisfied because only half of the collected demon blood was left.
This demon blood was the demon blood he collected from Ziyu's body in a side road in Xicheng two years ago.
Compared with human blood, the aura of demon blood is more in line with nature.
Putting aside the idea of drawing escape talismans, he used up the last half of the demon blood and finally painted three thunder summoning talismans and five spirit gathering talismans.
In the next month, he could only release his own blood and draw two Earth Escape Talisman, one Thunder Summoning Talisman and three Spirit Gathering Talisman.
He didn't dare try to use his own blood to repaint new talismans.
The silver he had on him was almost used, and he was about to set off for Baiyu Town to find out about the Wang family.
He bought a wine gourd and filled it with some wine, but he didn't know how to drink. The wine gourd was also an ornament to hide his identity.
When Li Zhong and Liu Captou learned that he was leaving Yelou Town, they rushed over early in the morning and insisted on seeing him off.
"Master, let us see you off."
Both Li Chong and Liu Captou had seen his severed hand and knew that he was a real immortal with the ability to control wind and rain.
Lin Jingzhe frowned because he didn't tell them that he was leaving, but why would they know.
This question could not withstand scrutiny, because he could immediately guess that it was the waiter Lu at the inn who informed him.
Because he was not familiar with the route of Baiyu Town, by chance, from the conversation between Lu Xiaoer and Shopkeeper Lu, they were going to Baiyu Town, so he wanted to take this opportunity to get close to them and go there together. Whitefish Town.
But Lu Xiaoer didn't know where he found out that he was very familiar with the government, so he informed Li Lizheng and Liu Capt. of the news of his departure.
Li Lizheng did not know that he and his son were brothers, and he watched his son die without helping him.
"Two adults, no need." Lin Jingzhe waved his hand. He didn't want to be busy, nor did he want his identity to be exposed prematurely to the eyes of enemies who were prying into his secrets.
"Send it to the city gate, that's fine."
"Okay." Lin Jingzhe paused and then said.
Liu Captou's lonely expression finally became a little looser. He had lost one of his arms and no longer had the same energy as before.
A team of six people, three good horses, and a carriage drove down the streets of the main city, and soon they were out of the city gate.
The guard at the gate of the city has changed. He is no longer the old soldier from before.
After Lin Jingzhe, Li Chong, and Liu Baotou said goodbye, they took the good horses they presented and hurried behind the team.
Shopkeeper Lu was a little envious of his relationship with Li Zhong and others. After they said goodbye, he got out of the carriage and came to him and said, "Master Mu, what is your relationship with them? This is simply envy. It offends others..."
Shopkeeper Lu didn't recognize him as the little beggar who walked behind him that day and went into the city together.
"We are just friends." Lin Jingzhe responded casually without revealing too much information.
"I have been doing business in Yelou Town for decades, but I have never seen Li Lizheng treat a person with such respect. If you say that you are an ordinary friend, how can you convince others."
"I helped him with Feng Shui and moved his grave." Lin Jingzhe came up with another random reason.
"I still don't believe it."
"If you don't believe me, there's nothing I can do." Lin Jingzhe said, rubbing her nose.
"This." Shopkeeper Lu saw that he didn't understand the world at all. He was stunned for a while and was disappointed. He could only twist his fat body and return to the carriage next to him.
"On our way."
When he returned to the carriage, he ordered Lu Xiaoer to start driving, and even faster.
There were two women sitting in the carriage with Shopkeeper Lu. Those two women were his first wife and second wife respectively.
Sitting on the good horse in front are two big men. They are the bodyguards hired by shopkeeper Lu.
There are two hundred miles from Yelou Town to Baiyu Town, and the journey is not peaceful.
Lin Jingzhe knew that he was speeding up on purpose, so he just smiled helplessly and followed leisurely behind him.
Two days later, the carriage had traveled more than fifty miles.
There was no store in front, no one behind, and no place to rest.
Eating, drinking, and defecating were all done on the road, which was a pity for those two women.
"After passing the mountain in front, there is a village. If you have no objections, please stay overnight."
A man leading the way shouted at the top of his lungs. He was more familiar with this two-hundred-mile road than anyone else.
"Okay." The voices of shopkeeper Lu and him came from the carriage.
Lin Jingzhe naturally had no objection. After all, he was just passing by and had not paid the two big men.
At nightfall, they arrived at the village, paid the rent, and moved into a simple house.
Lin Jingzhe had run out of money and had no money to pay for the room, so he stayed outside with his good horse.
Perhaps because of what happened before, shopkeeper Lu didn't invite him to live in a private house with him, and he didn't bother to care about it. His ears were clean, which was what he wanted.
At midnight, the surroundings gradually became quiet and everyone fell asleep.
Lin Jingzhe stretched himself, looked at the stars, closed his eyes, and gradually fell asleep.
At midnight, the horses were frightened and screamed.
Many people woke up from their dreams, especially the two big men.
They are on the move all year round and are naturally much more alert than others.
They got up one after another, picked up their weapons and oil lamps, one went to see why the foal was frightened, and the other stood guard in front of the servant's door.
