Jiang Ling'er stared at the two people drifting away, a sourness welling up from her nose to her eyes.
She pushed aside the crowd, stared at that person, and chased forward with three steps at a time and two steps at a time.
"Abba, Abba!" For some reason, the crowd suddenly surged, causing her to sway left and right, and her shrill shouts were covered by the noisy voices.
She summoned her spiritual energy and broke away from the crowd. Just as she was about to touch the hem of her father's clothes, she was knocked to the ground by a strong force.
Jiang Ling'er watched the two people get on the carriage, tears falling unconsciously.
"Fellow Taoist, I was accidentally pushed here too," Lin Wanyi smiled apologetically at her, then turned around and yelled, "Why are you walking? Young master, I was almost crushed to death by your big ass!" After scolding, Finally, looking at the girl crying on the ground, she froze in place.
There was mud from her feet to the hem of her skirt, her eyes were empty, and she looked into the distance in despair, and her crystal tears fell like broken pearls.
After a while, he quietly stretched his head over, and the two of them looked at each other for a while.
Jiang Ling'er stopped crying, glanced at him coldly, wiped away her tears, stood up and left.
Lin Wanyi followed her step by step, whistling from time to time.
She couldn't bear it anymore, "Hey, why are you following me?"
"I don't call you Hey, I call you Lin Wanyi. I bumped into you, and I want to apologize to you." He folded his arms behind his head and said with a smile.
Only then did she look at him.
The young man has a gold and jade crown on his head, and strange patterns are engraved on his forehead. He is dressed in black brocade clothes, with gilt rolled on the cuffs. He is luxurious and exquisite, more like a noble prince who lives in the world.
But when he grinned at her with grass in his mouth, Jiang Ling'er just thought, what a noble man, he was clearly more like a scoundrel!
"It's okay, you can go." She turned around and quickened her pace.
"Fellow Taoist, don't be so indifferent," he spat the grass aside, "I hate seeing my daughter shed tears. If you tell me, maybe it can help!"
Jiang Ling'er was about to refuse when a crossbow arrow suddenly passed by her left cheek, and the cold metal light flashed in front of her eyes.
Danger!
Many men in black appeared one after another on the surrounding rooftops. Each of them held a bow and looked down at the two of them.
She mobilized her spiritual energy and stood back to back with the boy, watching out for her surroundings.
"Yo ho, they're going to kill people, stupid woman, get me out quickly, I'm going to absorb all their spiritual power!" Xiaoxu in the dantian was burning, and he shouted excitedly.
Jiang Ling'er could hardly suppress the Heavenly Fire in her body, a drop of cold sweat slipped down her face, and she threatened through the voice transmission with her spiritual consciousness: "Have you forgotten what I said? We have made a three-part agreement. We agreed to listen to me, and you still want the Heavenly Fire." Going back on your word?"
The sky fire suddenly died down, and it ran around angrily.
At this moment, the young man behind her sent a message to her: "Is there any way you can hold them back? I have the escape talisman and I will definitely be able to escape!"
Jiang Ling'er did not hesitate, nodded, and summoned the fire dragon talisman. Since her third level of Qi refining, the talisman she drew was even more powerful than before. Five giant dragons were seen rising into the sky and hovering in front of the girl. The dazzling fire light was bright and rushed towards the girl. Towards the man in black who is gradually approaching.
"Escape!" While they were retreating, the young man wrapped his arms around her waist, and the two of them quickly fled underground.
An earth-yellow transparent barrier appeared above them, and the sand, gravel, and soil were separated by it. In an instant, the two of them appeared hundreds of miles away.
They stepped on the ground and collapsed to the ground from exhaustion. The young man turned pale and said, "Thank you very much."
Jiang Linger's heart was filled with anger. Those men in black were obviously coming for him. She had suffered a terrible disaster!
Fortunately, she wore a veil when she went out, otherwise she wouldn't even be able to return to Taoyuan Town, so how could she find her father.
The two of them warmed themselves by the fire and listened quietly to the sound of the flames beating.
Lin Wanyi was silent for a while, "Can you accompany me somewhere?" Then he took out a few jade bottles and said, "I'll give you four bottles of rejuvenation pills!"
Rejuvenation Pill, something that cannot be bought with spirit stones!
She took a look at the young man in front of her. He was at about the third or fourth level of Qi refining like her. Swallowing the rejection that was about to reach the tip of his tongue back into his stomach, he nodded.
The two adjusted their breath and spiritual energy and came to an abandoned temple.
Strange statues were placed high on the throne, and the incense burner was empty, with only a few incense sticks scattered here and there.
As night fell, the two men held up oil lamps and groped their way into a hidden door on the lower left side of the temple.
Half-bent, they walked deeper.
A few pieces of pink and white putty fell off the walls, but the ground underfoot was still clean.
"Here are my mother's relics," the young man at the head muttered, stopping at one place, "We've arrived."
A bunch of human figures made of yellow clay appeared in front of them. Some were headless, some had snake tails, and some had three legs. All kinds of strange human figures looked very strange in the narrow space.
Lin Wanyi took a hard bite and pressed her bloody finger to a hidden place. The mud statue on the ground cracked with a bang, and the unknown metal gear hidden in it began to rotate.
It turned very slowly, and the two of them just waited.
The young man stood there and suddenly smiled, "I want to tell you a story. Do you want to hear it?"
Jiang Linger's face was expressionless, and she didn't want to say a word until she got the rejuvenation pill.
Lin Wanyi didn't care and kept talking to himself, "I became an orphan overnight."
She opened her mouth, not knowing what to comfort her.
"None of them are dead," he squatted down and stared at the big gear. "They are all still alive, but they have all forgotten me."
Then he smiled at Jiang Ling'er, showing eight white teeth, "Isn't it ridiculous? I was a child raised by them, but they kicked me out as a lunatic."
"Later, I worked hard to find evidence, such as calligraphy and paintings I had hidden when I was a child, friends I knew, girls I liked, and some secrets I had never told anyone when I was a child."
"Then what?"
He gave a wry smile as an answer.
"Then I saw a man. Everyone said he was the eldest young master of the Lin family, but I had never seen this man before. It was like... he appeared out of thin air to replace me."
Jiang Ling'er's pupils trembled, remembering Jiang Yinxue held by her father before, her fingers trembled slightly.
As the metal gears rotated, the rest of the clay statues also cracked apart, forming a wheel-shaped machine.
Lin Wanyi stepped forward and conveyed spiritual energy into the rapidly rotating gears. The machine emitted white vapor, forming a strange portrait.
There is a whole square ground underneath, with a giant tree painted in the center. The tree is divided into countless layers, and all kinds of strange lines intersect with each other, making it dazzling.
"What is this place?" Jiang Ling'er asked casually.
At that moment, Lin Wanyi's expression changed drastically. He turned to look at her with fear and panic on his face, "Are you not an NPC?"
"What?"
The young man stretched out his hand, covered her mouth tightly, and mouthed a few words silently: "Don't make any sound, someone is watching us."
Jiang Ling'er was frightened by his expression and asked with her mouth: "Who?"
His answer gave Jiang Ling'er goosebumps all over her body. He pointed upward and stared straight at her, "In the sky."
