Time passed quickly, and it was already dark before they knew it, but this did not affect the villagers' joy in welcoming Lin Yan back.
Some families stewed wild boar meat, while others brought pickled rabbit heads. After a while, the enthusiastic villagers filled the table with all kinds of delicious food.
Although there are no expensive ingredients such as lobster and abalone, as the saying goes
"Rely on the mountains and eat the mountains", with the Tianjue Mountains at the back, game is indispensable. For Lin Yan, this is the taste he is familiar with, and it is incomparable no matter how much money he spends.
Everyone was bustling together, and the bright firelight illuminated this small border village. People talked, laughed, and were immersed in a cheerful atmosphere that didn't stop until late at night.
Ming Ya and Mo Li were placed in the guest room, while Lin Yan was in the same room as Lin Gu. As for Uncle Mao, since he couldn't live anywhere else, he had to let him live with Shouhou in their house.
Fortunately, the village is not big, so it is not far away and will not delay him from taking care of Mo Li. This night, Lin Yan slept the most soundly in years!
Because he returned to the most familiar place and was surrounded by the most familiar people, he let down all his guard and relaxed his body and mind.
He had a very good rest this time! If there was anything bad about it, it was that he was too relaxed and overslept!
When he got up the next day, it was already three o'clock in the morning. Lin Gu felt sorry for his grandson and wanted him to sleep a little longer, so he didn't call him.
So when he went out and saw Ming Ya and Mo Li, who had already gotten up, and felt the half-smiling look in their eyes, he couldn't help but feel a little hot. He was really embarrassed!
After all, it's hard to say that such a big person still stays in bed, right? Fortunately, the two women just smiled and did not tease him.
Especially Mingya. Although he and Lin Yan lived together, it was the first time she had seen such a relaxed Lin Yan.
In the eyes of outsiders, Lin Yan already has considerable strength at this age, and is lucky enough to enter the academy and even become a disciple of the inner academy. This may be a level that many people cannot achieve despite their best efforts. He should have confidence and even arrogance. capital.
But Mingya knew that Lin Yan seemed to have a vague sense of wariness towards everyone, as if everything around him was not so safe, and he only felt wary when facing her and her few friends. weaken.
However, when he returned to the village, these feelings of alertness disappeared in an instant, and his whole person was in an extremely relaxed state.
This makes Mingya very happy, after all, girls' minds are always delicate and sensitive. She was worried that Lin Yan might have some problems if things continued like this, but she had no solution.
Fortunately, everything is solved now! Lin Yan didn't know what was going on in the girl's mind, but his sense of alertness, which he might not even be aware of, was the source of his sense of security.
When he walked out of a small village, he faced countless dangers along the way, so he knew very well that an undefended simple guy would never survive in the cruel world.
In addition, he has many secrets in his heart: such as Momen, Qiulao, and his life experience. He couldn't talk about these things with others, he could only hide them silently and bury them deep in his heart.
Over time, this vague sense of alertness gradually took shape. Only in this absolutely safe place could the defensive line in his heart slowly be lowered.
Because Lin Yan got up too late, he only had time to have lunch. After that, he carried things to the elders in the village. This was a gift he carefully selected.
However, Ming Ya and Mo Li didn't follow them. It was just girls who were thin-skinned. They couldn't bear the teasing yesterday, so they dared to come to their door.
There were indeed a lot of things brought this time, and Lin Yan had to make many trips to deliver them all. Although the elders said they didn't want it, they couldn't help but smile when they saw Lin Yan being so sensible, and felt very beautiful!
Lin Yan also prepared gifts for those friends. It is worth mentioning that Lin Yan brought back a bright silver scimitar named
"The waning moon". This knife was made in Chang'an
The purchase from "Baoqixuan" cost Lin Yan a lot of savings, but the quality is extremely good. Weapons in the world are divided into
The fourth level of "Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang", and this handle
"Crane Moon" is a high-level yellow-level weapon. In addition, this knife is said to be
It was made by a prestigious master of "Baoqixuan". Although the level is lower, it is definitely the best among weapons of the same level.
The reason why it is Huang Jie is not that Lin Yan is reluctant to give Shouhou better weapons, but that he knows one truth, that is
"Every man is not guilty, but he is guilty of carrying a jade"! With Shouhou’s current strength, this weapon
"Crane Moon" is a bit risky for him. Fortunately, the village is on the border, and there are no experts on weekdays, so it will not pose any danger to him.
Lin Yan still remembered that he broke the short knife of Shouhou, which was the prize won by the latter in the competition within the clan. He had always felt a little regretful about it, but now he made up for it a little.
As soon as I saw
"Crane Moon", the thin monkey stared at it. When Lin Yan gave it to him, he couldn't put it down and held it in his arms. He was obviously very satisfied!
After getting to know his friends, Lin Yan realized that they had not seen each other for a long time and that they had made great progress. The older Lin Tian had even joined the hunting team in the village.
That was led by Lin Zhen. He would go hunting in the mountains on weekdays and capture some wild animals. In addition to being eaten by the people in the village, the rest could be brought to the city to sell for money.
Those who can join the hunting team must be good players. I didn't expect Lin Tian to improve so quickly! The thin monkey seemed to have seen what Lin Yan was thinking, and said:
"Brother Lin Tian is indeed very powerful! But I am not bad either, Xiao Yanzi, the patriarch and grandpa all praise me for my potential!" Lin Yan smiled and nodded, agreeing with this matter.
Then the thin monkey asked:
"By the way, Xiao Yanzi, what state are you in now? Will you be surpassed by me? Haha..." Lin Yan heard this, put a finger to his mouth, and said mysteriously:
"Keep it secret!" Then he changed the subject, looked at the thin monkey and said:
"But, let's have a try!" Shouhou
He said "cut", expressing disdain for his behavior. However, he still had doubts about Lin Yan's initiative to ask for a fight, and ultimately did not agree.
When Lin Yan was still in the village, he was a ruthless person who could challenge characters such as Lin Tian and Zhang Long and win.
Although Shouhou's current strength has improved a lot, this kid is as smart as a monkey, so naturally he will not easily agree to the competition.
What if you hit Lin Yan?
"Trap", doesn't that mean you are being tortured in a hurry? Lin Yan couldn't help but feel a little regretful when he saw that Shouhou was not fooled.
This guy was shouting all over the village yesterday
"Daughter-in-law" made him and Ming Ya very embarrassed, and they were looking for an excuse to have sex with Shouhou.
Let's "communicate", but this guy is very cautious and refuses to take any action, so he has no choice but to give up!
Seeing Lin Yan's regretful expression, Shouhou was very glad that he didn't take the move just now. No wonder he felt a chill just now!
... After a few days of peaceful life in the village, Lin Yan discussed with Mo Li and the others a trip to the Tianjue Mountains.
He was thinking of going to the place where the battle recorded in the library took place, and maybe he could find some clues.
Mo Li, on the other hand, was wondering if he could try his luck and find an ancient formation to observe. As for Ming Ya, this girl just went there to have fun, as if she would follow Lin Yan wherever he went.
Knowing that Lin Yan and others were going to the mountain, although Lin Gu was worried, he did not stop them. In the past few days, the grandfather and grandson often held candlelight conversations at night, and Lin Yan also roughly recounted what he had experienced outside.
While Lin Gu was worried about his grandson, he was also doubly distressed to hear that he was suffering. But more importantly, through these things, he knew that Lin Yan had truly grown up and that he had the ability to deal with danger on his own!
Based on the news brought back by Lin Yan, Lin Gu also made some guesses about the figure he saw when he picked up Lin Yan. At the same time, he very much agreed with Lin Yan to find his life experience. The clues in the Tianjue Mountains were inevitable. I'm going to check it out!
However, this Tianjue Mountain Range is extremely dangerous and the terrain is complex. Even if you only move around on the periphery, it is not something that ordinary people can handle. If you are not careful, you will get lost.
So Lin Gu took him to find Lin Zhen. Hunting teams often go into the mountains and have a good understanding of the terrain. They also have their own perception and judgment of dangers. It will be much safer if they lead the way!
After Lin Zhen understood this, he thought for a moment and said:
"Xiao Yanzi, let Xiaotian take you there this time. He knows the surrounding terrain better and I believe he can be of great help to you." Lin Yan nodded after hearing this. For Lin Tian, he still Very reassuring.
Afterwards, Lin Zhen called Lin Tian and gave many instructions alone. After all, Lin Tian was playing a guide-like role this time. He had a heavy responsibility and could not make any mistakes.
In fact, Lin Zhen originally wanted to take the entire hunting team to escort Lin Yan and the others into the mountains, but Lin Gu stopped him.
Lin Gu had long seen that Lin Yan's current strength had improved too much, and those two girls were not simple characters.
Especially the girl named Mo Li, who was followed by a
"Uncle Mao" may seem ordinary, but in fact he is very powerful. If Lin Zhen really goes there with a hunting team, and if he encounters any danger, it's not certain who will take care of whom!
But Lin Yan had been away from the village for too long and was not familiar with the terrain of the mountains, so a good guide was crucial.
And this is what they can do to help Lin Yan. Next, everyone began to make intensive preparations.
On this day, Lin Yan and others packed their weapons, food and water, and walked together towards the entrance of the village, where Lin Tian was already waiting.
Lin Yan walked forward quickly, said hello, and then solemnly said:
"Brother Lin Tian, I'll leave it to you this time!" Lin Tian smiled and patted the former's shoulder and said:
"Don't worry!" Then, the group of people walked towards the Tianjue Mountains...
