In fact, despite the fact that Xiao Lin Yan has been staying with his grandfather Lin Gu since he was a child, he really doesn't know Lin Gu's strength. I only know that grandpa is very powerful and is the most powerful person in the village, but I don't have an accurate idea of how powerful he is.
This morning, after the father and son had washed up, they were ready to fulfill their previous agreement of three moves in the yard.
Xiao Lin Yan has always been very dependent on his grandfather Lin Gu. In fact, this is easy to understand. From a swaddled baby to a half-grown boy today, his growth cannot be separated from Lin Gu's company. Human beings are not grass and trees, how can they be ruthless!
However, the saplings will always grow up, and the young eagles will also leave the nest. If you want to become stronger, you have to go see the outside world by yourself, walk around, and venture into it!
Looking at Lin Gu opposite, Xiao Linyan made up his mind.
"Are you ready?" Lin Gu looked at him and asked.
Xiao Linyan nodded silently.
Seeing this, Lin Gu stepped forward and at the same time moved a light palm towards Xiao Lin Yanyin.
The latter was already on full alert. The moment Lin Gu just moved, he started to activate his skills, and at the same time performed the "Phantom Step" and "Ghost Slaying Two Styles - Thunderbolt". The purpose was not to attack Lin Gu, but to use the two skills to attack Lin Gu. He used his speed advantage to avoid this palm.
However, the footwork and moves that were always unfavorable in battles in the past, even if they were used to the extreme today, they could not get rid of Lin Gu's light palm. The latter followed him closely like a maggot attached to the bone, getting closer and closer. Coming closer...
In fact, it makes sense to think about it. Not all of his moves were taught by Lin Gu, so how could he expect to avoid the latter by using them?
Finally, Lin Gu's palm touched Xiao Linyan's shoulder. The huge force coming from his palm was not as light as it seemed.
Xiao Linyan couldn't help but take several steps back under the impact of this force, and finally stabilized his body.
He looked at Lin Gu, who also looked at him quietly.
"Yan'er, you're still too young. The world is dangerous. It's not too late to wait until you're older in a few years before you go out and try your luck!" Lin Gu said helplessly.
"Grandpa, Yan'er has grown up, it's time for you to take your second move." Xiao Lin Yan said stubbornly.
"well!"
Lin Gu sighed helplessly, his eyes suddenly became stern, and the next palm unconsciously became stronger.
Xiao Linyan had suffered losses before and knew that he would definitely not be able to avoid it, so he could only accept it forcefully.
He once again mobilized the vitality in his body and performed the "Three Ghost Slaying Moves - Dragon Slaying", which was also the most powerful move he could use so far.
The knife and the palm touched. Although the black knife was broken, it was still a magic weapon, but it could not force the flesh palm to take a step back. Anyway, the power transmitted through the blade made Xiao Linyan's whole body shocked and flew out, and then fell heavily on the ground. on the ground.
This face-to-face contact also let Xiao Linyan know that Lin Gu's strength is far beyond his current ability, even if he took these three moves without being serious.
But Xiao Linyan did not give up. Although his body was in pain and there was not much energy left in his body, he still struggled to stand up.
"Grandpa, there is one last move!" Xiao Linyan said.
Lin Gu moved slightly, and instantly appeared in front of Xiao Lin Yan like a ghost. The latter was slightly startled, and could only close his eyes silently when he looked at the palm that was printed towards him.
"I'm still too weak!"
The expected impact did not come, but his head seemed to be being rubbed by a warm and strong hand.
When he opened his eyes, Lin Gu was looking at him with a loving expression. After all, Lin Gu was not cruel.
"Yes, now that the child is old, it's time to go out and have adventures!" Lin Gu thought.
"Master... Master?" Xiao Linyan asked doubtfully.
"Grandpa agreed." Lin Gu sighed and said.
Xiao Lin Yan's initial surprise turned into joy, and he immediately threw himself into Lin Gu's arms, rubbing his head against the latter.
"Let Grandpa take a look, does it hurt?" Lin Gu carefully checked Xiao Linyan's body up and down and asked with concern.
"It doesn't hurt, I'm in great shape!" Xiao Linyan patted his small chest and said.
"You kid!" Lin Gu shook his head and smiled.
After all, he is the child he has raised since he was a child, so how can he be willing to do something harsh to him? I just fell a little hard before, but I was already feeling very distressed.
"Grandpa, then I'm going to practice daily!" Xiao Linyan said after resting for a while.
"Go ahead and be careful on the road!" Lin Gu nodded and said.
Seeing Xiao Lin Yan jumping away and walking away, Lin Gu's eyes flashed and he thought: I hope everything goes well for Yan'er!
…
In the following days, in addition to practicing, Xiao Linyan was preparing things for the journey. Of course, he mainly packed some of his own gadgets, such as the slingshot he had asked for from Slender Monkey before.
Also, Qiu Lao's black blade is too conspicuous, so you should keep a low profile when you go out!
Xiao Linyan thought, how about dyeing him?
Just do it, and soon Xiao Linyan got a bucket of white paint from nowhere.
So, while Qiu Lao repeatedly exclaimed and yelled "No", Xiao Linyan came closer with a smile, which felt a bit like a scoundrel teasing a decent woman.
But resistance was useless. Looking at the blade covered with white paint, Qiu Lao blew his beard and glared, even though he didn't have a beard to blow.
Xiao Linyan persuaded the little old man for a long time before he persuaded him.
Although it doesn’t look good with white paint, it’s low-key at least!
Xiao Linyan comforted himself.
As for other necessary items for going out, Lin Gu naturally helped prepare them. In addition to a few sets of clothes, some money was also put in the package.
In addition, Lin Gu thoughtfully prepared dry food and water. He was worried that Xiao Linyan wouldn't be able to get them, so he even took a small donkey with him.
This donkey was born to the female donkey of Lin Dayong's family in the village last year. The female donkey usually works for pulling and grinding, but when she heard that Xiao Lin Yan was going on a long trip, she brought the donkey over.
Originally, Lin Gu planned to find a horse for Xiao Lin Yan, but it was a bit difficult for a seven-and-a-half-year-old child to ride a tall horse, so he had to settle for a donkey, which could carry some things.
This little donkey looks very cute, with a big head, long ears, and running around on four short legs. He looks thin and frail, but he is full of energy.
He has gray-brown hair, only the lower part of his face and abdomen are white. He grins widely at all times, showing his big teeth, breathing heavily from his nostrils, shouting "Er, er, er," and moving his eyes along the way. They were all squinted, looking extremely funny.
Putting the dry food and water on the little donkey's back, the little guy was a little reluctant. After all, he didn't do much work at home.
Three days later, everything was ready.
At the entrance of the village, there were quite a few people coming to see him off. That's right, Xiao Lin Yan grew up eating hundreds of meals. He is not only Lin Gu's grandson, but also the heart of the villagers.
Shouhou, Lin Tian and Erdan also came, especially Shouhou, who cried. Xiao Linyan was his best brother.
"Xiao Yanzi, be careful on the road and pay attention to safety!"
"You're such a young kid, how can we feel relieved after traveling so far?"
"A good boy, ambitious, better than your uncle and me!"
"Brother, when I become stronger and go out to explore the world like you, you have to wait for me!"
…
People in the village told him incessantly that the relationship between people in this small mountain village was more simple, and they all cared about him and worried about him from the bottom of their hearts.
Xiao Linyan smiled and said goodbye one by one. When he was done, he waved to everyone and rode his donkey slowly towards the distance.
We have walked far away, but the people in the village have not dispersed yet, and we can still vaguely see waving hands.
After walking out of everyone's sight, Xiao Linyan's eyes couldn't help but get wet. He had been holding back just now, after all, he couldn't let everyone worry any more!
I casually wiped my tears with my sleeve, thinking: Grandpa said, "A man never sheds tears easily." Just this once, I will never shed tears easily in the future!
Riding a little donkey on the country road, heading towards Huangshi City, passing through this small border town, is truly heading towards the hinterland of the Tang Dynasty.
But as he walked, this little guy gave up his game for some reason and refused to leave even after saying anything. Xiao Linyan had no choice but to come down and walk, holding the donkey.
This little guy may have been spoiled by Dayong's family. After all, he is still young, and there is not much work for him to do at home. This sudden trip, where I have to carry not only goods but also people, is unbearable!
The country roads were not easy to walk on. It had just rained yesterday, so Xiao Linyan walked one foot deeper and one foot shallower. Unintentionally, his foot slipped and he fell into the mud.
Xiao Linyan got up. The clothes he had just changed were covered in mud, and his hands and face were covered with mud. He looked like a little clay figure.
The little donkey behind him took a look, and opened his big mouth in gloating, and laughed "Eye, Ea, Ea," and shook his head. His eyes were narrowed to a slit, and his big fangs were shining brightly in the sunlight. Very white.
The black knife on his back, no, it was a white knife now, and Qiu Lao's uncontrollable laughter came from inside.
Xiao Linyan looked helpless at the two living treasures, the old and the young.
Qiu Lao: "Even the donkey is laughing at you! Hahaha!"
Xiao Linyan: "Yes, the donkeys are laughing at me!"
Qiu Lao: "..."
It was noisy along the way, but time passed quickly. After a while, the gate of Huangshi City could be seen from a distance.
Xiao Linyan walked in front, leading the donkey behind. They walked toward the city gate.
Due to the slow pace on the road, it was almost noon when we arrived at the city gate. There were not many people entering the city, and we soon arrived at Xiaolinyan.
The guard at the city gate looked at this strange combination and was speechless for a while.
A child of seven or eight years old, covered in mud, looked like a little clay figure crawling out of the mire, and was leading a skinny and weak donkey behind him. Was he here to escape?
But based on consistent principles, one of the guards still asked: "Child, do you have the toll?"
Xiao Linyan blinked his big watery eyes, scratched his head in confusion, and looked at him blankly.
The city guard raised his voice and said: "Tolls! It's money. My child, do you have money?"
This time Xiao Linyan seemed to understand. After groping for a while in his arms, he finally took out two copper plates. He raised them in front of the city guard with his muddy hands and said, "Here, here they are!"
City Guard: "..."
