When Lin Cheng woke up and found himself covered in black goo and exuding a stench, he almost vomited.
He knew that this should be marrow cleansing, after all, it was written like this in the book.
There were still knocking sounds coming from the shop in front, which should have passed not long ago.
After taking a shower again, Lin Cheng found that his body had changed slightly. His muscles were much stronger and his lines and contours were perfect. This was the body he envied most in his previous life.
After getting dressed, Lin Cheng walked into the shop. His father was blacksmithing, and his naked upper body was covered with sweat.
"Father, take a rest." Lin Cheng obediently poured a glass of water for his father and said.
"It's almost time. After finishing this shot, the work assigned by Mr. Wen Lan will be completed. You can inform them to pick it up in the afternoon." Lin Jingshan wiped the sweat from his forehead and said.
"We should be able to make a lot of money from this order." Lin Cheng nodded and asked.
"Yes, after finishing these one hundred weapons, we should be able to relax for half a year." After Lin Jingshan finished speaking, he dropped the hammer again, and with a flash of golden light, the weapon was completed.
"Bang bang bang..." There was a knock on the door.
A man in a black suit with golden eyes and a black folder in his hand appeared at the door. (More than half a step, after all, it connects the four worlds, so wearing a suit is not too much)
"Blacksmith Lin, long time no see." The visitor said with a smile.
"Oh, Deacon Wang, I just finished this work and was about to ask my son to go to the house to report, so you came in person." Lin Jingshan said politely when he saw the person coming.
Deacon Wang is a deacon in Prince Wenlan's house. He is responsible for more than half of the business management and is a loyal confidant.
Mr. Wenlan is the boss behind Banbuduo Inn and is recognized by the four circles as a talkative man in Banbuduo.
"Weapon matters are trivial. The main reason I came here is because your young master is over ten years old. According to the half-step law, he should enroll in Wenlan College this year." Deacon Wang waved his hand and said.
Lin Jingshan heard this and looked at Lin Cheng behind him.
Yes, my son is ten years old this year.
"Deacon Wang, look... I have only one child in the family, can you please accommodate me when it comes to enrolling in the academy?" With that said, Lin Jingshan took out a wad of money from the cash box and handed it to Deacon Wang.
Unexpectedly, Deacon Wang snorted coldly and threw the money on the workbench.
"Other matters can be discussed. The rules for admission are set by the young master. There are only a few hundred households in half a step. You can tell at a glance who is going to and who is not going.
Blacksmith Lin, it’s not that I won’t help you, so don’t make things difficult for me. Please help your young master get ready for school as soon as possible. "
"I have to inform others, so I will stay soon. Someone will pick up the weapons when the time comes."
After saying that, Deacon Wang patted the black folder and turned to leave.
"Father...why don't you want me to go to Wenlan College?" Lin Cheng asked, looking at his somewhat decadent father.
"There is no return from there..." Lin Jingshan said as he sat down on the stool.
"Since Mr. Wenlan founded the academy, all the children who entered the academy have never appeared again..."
Lin Cheng was stunned when he heard this.
"Then no one has looked for it?" Lin Cheng asked cautiously.
"How could it not be? At first, several families united to look for Mr. Wenlan, and then...then those families disappeared in half a step." Lin Jingshan sighed.
Lin Cheng trembled slightly, an inexplicable fear filling his mind.
Could it be...could it be possible that the famous Wenlan Master is a man who eats boys and girls?
"Cheng'er, hurry up... pack your things, let's leave here right away." Suddenly, Lin Jingshan stood up, grabbed Lin Cheng and rushed towards the backyard.
"Father..." Lin Cheng was dragged flying up.
"Stop talking nonsense and pick up something useful." Lin Jingshan urged Lin Cheng as he pushed him into the room.
Lin Cheng stood in the room blankly. He was a man of two generations and couldn't react for a while.
Shouldn't we just run away at this time?
In TV dramas, everything is tidied up
You can't run away if things run away.
"Have you packed it up yet..." Lin Jingshan appeared at the door of the room and said angrily looking at his son who was still standing there.
"Father... I have nothing to deal with." Lin Cheng stammered.
"Then leave quickly." Lin Jingshan nodded and said.
I saw him walking up to a bluestone in the courtyard and punching it, causing the bluestone to shatter.
Lin Jingshan reached inside and suddenly pulled out a long spear.
This spear has a simple shape, is dark overall, and has a cold light on its tip.
"Let's go...!" Pulling Lin Cheng up, Lin Jingshan rushed out of the door and disappeared into the street in just a moment.
Lin Cheng was carried on Lin Jingshan's back, feeling the scenery around him retreating rapidly, and couldn't help but think in his mind, it must be at least more than 200 miles away.
He felt very nervous and a little excited. At the same time, he also lamented that his father had such strength. He was indeed a person from the God Realm as mentioned by the arrogant order of heaven.
After passing through the town for more than half a step, Lin Jingshan's speed increased again, and his whole body turned into a stream of light and rushed towards the north.
It didn't take long for the father and son to reach the northernmost point, which was more than half a step away.
Not far away, a city wall that was tens of feet high and endless appeared, with a radiant gate in the middle of the wall.
The three characters "human world" are engraved above the city gate.
"Are you going home?" Lin Cheng blinked as he watched, his yearning for the human world obvious.
"Huh..." Lin Jingshan breathed out. Even he was a little bit too much to run for a long time.
"Father...do you want to take a rest?" Lin Cheng lay on Lin Jingshan's back and asked softly.
"Let's rest when we get to the human world. We haven't left for more than half a step, so we can't relax for a moment." After saying that, Lin Jingshan took another step.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk..." Suddenly, a voice sounded in the sky.
The dim sky that was characteristic of Half Step Over became even more gloomy.
The black clouds in the sky began to billow violently, and a human face slowly emerged.
"Where are you going?" He said with a sinister face.
Lin Jingshan sighed when he saw this, and slowly put Lin Cheng down.
"Young Master Wenlan." Lin Jingshan raised his spear and bowed slightly towards the face in the sky and shouted.
"Let me guess, do you want to run away?" the man in the sky said with a cold face.
Lin Jingshan didn't speak. It was useless to say anything at this time. He directly took Lin Cheng's hand and continued to move forward.
"You are so brave..." The human face in the sky shouted angrily, and a storm suddenly blew between the sky and the earth, and lightning flashed in the black clouds.
"Master Wenlan, please show your respect. Lin has no intention of being your enemy. He just wants to take his son away." Lin Jingshan was not afraid and still held Lin Cheng's hand and walked forward.
Lin Cheng was a little frightened. It was the first time he saw such a phenomenon. No matter who he was, he would not be able to feel uneasy.
However, being held by his father and feeling full of security, Lin Jingshan looked extremely tall in his eyes.
"More than half a step...I am the sky...I am the earth. No one can disobey me here, no one."
