"To be killed just like that."
Lin Xing felt surprised and confused, and stepped forward to inspect Tianlian's body.
"Can you hear it?"
"Where is the dragon vein? You haven't told me yet."
But no matter how Lin Xing talked or checked, he could find that the other party was really dead.
"A criminal murder happened right in front of me."
"How could I just sit back and watch?"
As an upright superpower and a swordsman who always does justice, how could Lin Xing tolerate the other party dying in front of him like this?
So Lin Xing looked at Bai Yiyi and winked at him.
Bai Yiyi understood instantly and made a no problem gesture.
The next moment, the fire had enveloped Lin Xing's body, and his consciousness fell into complete darkness amidst severe pain.
When Lin Xing came to his senses again, time returned to their way to the pagoda.
Lin Xing turned around and found that Tianlian was still walking beside him, looking lively.
He nodded slightly, feeling satisfied in his heart. He felt that he had saved another life, and the righteousness in his heart seemed to be much smoother.
Then his figure flashed and he rushed forward, arriving in front of the pagoda in a blink of an eye.
With the flash of sword light from Lin Xing's fingertips, all the big men present had their knees shattered.
Looking at the villains who were holding their knees and screaming and falling to the ground, Lin Xing nodded and asked, "Who are you? Why did you attack us?"
The big men who fell on the ground roared at him one by one.
"Bitch!"
"Sneak attack if you have the right skills, and fight grandpa openly!"
"The patriarch will not let you go!"
Listening to what the big men said, Lin Xing frowned slightly and found that he couldn't quite understand what the other party said.
"The accent is too strong and weird."
But even though he couldn't understand what the other party said, Lin Xing knew from the look on their faces that they didn't say anything nice. His eyes narrowed slightly, and an invisible spiritual thought swept out, knocking out all the big men.
Looking at Tianlian and Bai Yiyi coming from the side, Lin Xing said: "They are going to attack us, so I will disarm them in advance."
"Do you know who they are? Why did they come to dig the pagoda?"
Tianlian shook his head, with a trace of surprise flashing in his eyes: "There have been many outsiders on the mountain recently. I don't know what's going on. I didn't expect that they have already come to dig the pagoda."
As Lin Xing moved forward, he discovered that the number of vicious cases happening along the way was increasing.
From time to time, murderers appear in his spiritual perception.
Some were killing each other for the secret book, some were attacking them like those big men just now, some were fighting each other over some herbs, and some were even killing each other just talking...
Especially those big men with very similar clothes and accents appeared all over the valley like groups of bandits, constantly attacking everyone who passed by.
For so many criminal incidents, Lin Xing will naturally not show mercy.
He smashed the knees of all the passers-by who were fighting, killing, and robbing one by one, removing their criminal ability.
When encountering some murder cases, Lin Xing had a fearless spirit of sacrifice and cooperated with Bai Yiyi to turn back time, saving lives by dying again and again.
There are even several monks who are monks of Shilin Temple.
Lin Xing felt that the righteousness in his chest seemed to be brighter with his continuous acts of chivalry.
And until he once again cut open the knee of a murderous villain with his sword light, he finally couldn't help but said to Tianlian who was standing aside: "Is the security force of your Shilin Temple too insufficient?"
"There are so many evil people coming in and out of the mountain behind here, and you don't care about them?"
Hearing this, a trace of embarrassment flashed across Tian Lian's face, and she explained: "The host has said that the entire mountain of Shilin Temple has always been shared with the people. No one is ever placed under supervision, and no one is allowed to go up the mountain."
"Oh?" When Lin Xing heard this, something strange flashed across his face: "Among the nine sects, there is one who can come in and out at will?"
Lin Xing thought of the few monks he had just rescued and Tianlian who had been killed, and asked: "It seems that many of the monks in Shilin Temple are not very powerful and have not learned any powerful martial arts skills? "
Tianlian said calmly: "Shilin Temple is divided into three sects: martial arts, Buddhism, and Zen."
"Wuzong and Buddhism each practice martial arts and Buddhism. Most of them are very powerful. They are also the two most well-known types in the temple."
"As for our Zen sect, we only practice Buddhism and study Buddhist scriptures. We are not very sophisticated in martial arts."
Lin Xing was slightly shocked when he heard this. He could not imagine that in an environment like the Mirror World, there would be a branch of a sect that did not pursue power?
Next, Lin Xing and his party came to the depths of the valley and saw several monks and nuns with white hair and beards waiting there.
"The poor monk Kong Ming." The old monk nodded towards Lin Xing and said, "Thank you so much for your help today, young hero, for saving several disciples in our temple."
As he spoke, he pointed to a huge stone monument behind him and said: "This is the place where the eminent monks of Shilin Temple passed away. The point where the dragon veins converge is the dragon's cave, which is under this stone monument."
The old monk looked at Lin Xing sincerely: "The poor monk has long heard Tianlian say that your Excellency is chivalrous and righteous, and everything he does is a good deed for the country and the people."
"When I saw him today, he certainly lived up to his reputation."
"Whether it is the young knight who saved many disciples of our Shilin Temple today or the young knight's character and responsibility, our temple is willing to help you, young knight."
"You can take this dragon vein, Young Master Lin."
"You can take as much as you can."
Hearing this, Lin Xing was surprised again: "I can take this dragon vein as I please?"
He could sense that there was a majestic spiritual machine under the stone tablet that was constantly running and flowing. According to the Six Secrets of Immortal Refining, this was an extremely ancient and powerful dragon vein.
The old monk sighed: "The eminent monks of our temple have passed away here not to borrow the dragon veins to protect their descendants, but to bless the dragon veins so that the earth veins can become more abundant and rich, so that they can bless the world in the future and protect more people in the world."
"Nowadays, troubled times are approaching, and there is a shortage of righteous people like Lin Shaoxia. What's more, you, Lin Shaoxia, have saved so many disciples of this temple. You are really a great benefactor of this temple..."
While they were talking, they saw several old monks shouting loudly. Their muscles swelled and golden light shone. They were already like Vajra Warriors coming to the stone tablet.
There was a loud bang, and with the joint efforts of several old monks, the stone tablet was smashed into pieces.
And as the stone tablet broke, the sound of dragon roars came from the underground, and Lin Xing even vaguely seemed to see dragon shadows flashing in the air.
Kong Ming shouted: "The Dragon Suppressing Stone has been broken! Why don't you Shaoxia Lin quickly intercept the dragon's veins?"
Several other monks blocked the way outside.
"Young hero, just accept this dragon vein. The seniors in the temple know about it, and they will definitely be happy that the dragon vein can help you, and be happy that there is another strong man of righteousness in this world."
"Young hero, you can practice with peace of mind, we will protect you."
Seeing that the opponent had already achieved this step, Lin Xing was not polite and directly started to intercept the dragon's veins for cultivation using the method recorded in the Six Secrets of Immortal Refining.
The scene in his sea of consciousness shook suddenly, and a rune symbolizing the secret of the earth gradually took shape in the center of the sea of consciousness.
Lin Xing sighed in his heart: "Sure enough, good people are rewarded. Shi Lin Temple was also infected by my chivalrous feelings and actually gave me this dragon vein directly."
…
Just when Lin Xing intercepted the dragon's veins and practiced the earth secret in the Six Secret Immortal Refining.
On the other side of the valley, many wounded people with broken knees were seen being brought here. There were all kinds of screams, wails, and curses, which made the hearts of those who heard it chill.
A tall old man looked at this scene and said angrily: "What on earth is going on?"
The old man's ethnic group has lived here since the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and has protected the Dragon Vein of the Great Zhou for generations.
But now the Great Zhou royal family has long been extremely weak. Even its own territory can no longer be preserved, and it has no time to care about their so-called dragon veins.
But although the royal family has not contacted them for decades, this ethnic group has long been accustomed to living here and has never left.
Even because of the influence of dragon veins here, the land here is extremely fertile, and the location is very hidden and difficult to find. There is also a maze of mazes laid out by the Zhou royal family hundreds of years ago on the periphery.
So the whole family has been living here for many years, and their life is pretty good.
Until some time ago, more and more Jianghu people began to appear in the mountains, and they had to use force to drive each other away.
But with the arrival of some monks, the situation became worse.
The young man next to the old man said: "Chief, according to the tribesmen whose legs were broken, a big evil man broke into the valley."
The old man asked doubtfully: "A great evil man?"
The young man explained: "The evil man was ruthless and cruel. He beat everyone he saw along the way and even killed several of our tribesmen."
The old man frowned and said, "Hit anyone you see? Who is he? Why do you do this?"
The young man said: "I don't know. The evil guy couldn't communicate at all. He suddenly rushed out and broke the legs of the tribesmen without saying a word."
"It is also said that the tribesmen who were beaten to death by him did not know him at all. He rushed over and punched the people in the chest."
As the young man spoke, he recalled the appearance of the corpses again, and said with a trace of fear in his eyes:
"It's like Uncle Ba, who was walking along the mountain road, and the evil man suddenly rushed out of the forest, cut off his head and left."
Listening to the young man's words, the image of a cold and ruthless murderous demon slowly took shape in the old man's mind.
