Lin Gu didn't feel much about the piece of clothing, but the words on the jade plaque caught his attention.
The jade plaque is broken and no longer what it used to be, but you can still vaguely identify it.
The word "Xuan".
"Xuan Tian Sect?" Lin Gu asked. Lin Yan nodded and said:
"Grandpa, do you think so too?" Lin Gu's face was heavy. When he saw this word, he naturally thought of the overbearing sect that was number one in the Taoist sect, or even the number one in the Yuan world.
Nowadays, Xuantian Sect even has a tendency to rank first among the three religions, and it has become unstoppable. It would really not be a pleasant thing to face them!
After a while of analysis, the grandfather and grandson roughly deduced the true nature of the matter: First of all, this jade plaque definitely could not belong to Lin Yan's parents, because no one dared to target people from the Xuantian Sect so blatantly.
Of course, doing it secretly does not count, but since traces can still be found today, it means that the person who did it does not care. At that time, there were not many ruthless people who dared to provoke Xuantian Sect like this.
Secondly, if this is the case, then this jade tablet belongs to the Xuantian Sect, and it belongs to the party with more people chasing it.
If this is inferred, then the pieces of clothing that were made of good materials were left behind by people from the Xuantian Sect.
In the end, Lin Yan's parents were the ones being chased, and they were in a hostile relationship with the Xuantian Sect. Since he was left in the village for so long in the end, it meant that they had already been captured and had no time to care.
I just don’t know whether it was his father or mother who was being hunted at that time, and why did it happen? But this is not a problem. The truth of what happened back then must continue to be investigated, even if it ends up facing Xuantian Sect!
Lin Gu sighed and said:
"Yan'er, grandpa knows that you will never give up. But the Xuantian Sect is so powerful that you must not alert the enemy before you are fully fledged!"
"Hide in the dark, collect intelligence, and wait for opportunities. Remember, the opponents who are hidden are the most difficult to deal with!" Lin Yan nodded heavily after hearing this, and he remembered Lin Gu's words.
Then both the grandfather and grandson fell into a brief silence, and then Lin Gu looked at Lin Yan lovingly and said with a smile:
"Yan'er, no matter what you want to do, just go ahead and do it! We will always be your strongest support!" Lin Yan nodded heavily, and then lowered his head so that no one would see his eyes turning. tears.
"It's great to have a family!"... Wubi led by the three religions is getting closer and closer, and Lin Yan and the others cannot stay in the village for a long time. It's time to leave!
When I was young, I felt nothing at home. When I grew up, I stayed away from home for a long time. Whether it was for studying or other reasons, I couldn't see those familiar relatives and friends every day.
Whether you say you miss her or say you are reluctant to leave, there is always a sad emotion in it. Or maybe this is the price of growth, it will always be accompanied by parting.
Reluctant to leave, I still have to pick up my bags and run to the distance! Lin Gu filled Lin Yan's carriage with as much delicious food as possible, and the uncles and aunts in the village also came to say goodbye.
Some aunts shouted: "Next time you come back, remember to bring these two girls with you. They are all family members, don't see them outside!" Some men said with a smile: "Be sure to keep an eye on them, these two girls look so good." Jun, don’t let other bastards fool you!”
"..." Everyone gave instructions one by one, and the words were full of worries about the children having to travel far away.
Lin Tian, Shou Hou and Da Zhuang are also here, but the young people are not so sentimental. It's just that my friends who finally came back have to leave again, so it's inevitable that I feel a little lonely!
"Xiao Yanzi, you go first. When I finish practicing the sword, I will go find you!" Thin Monkey patted the scimitar given to him by Lin Yan and said with a smile.
The latter nodded and said:
"Okay, but don't make me wait too long!" Thin Monkey continued:
"Don't worry!" Then he came over and gave Lin Yan a big bear hug. Lin Tian patted Lin Yan on the shoulder and said:
"Xiao Yanzi, don't carry everything by yourself when you go out, pay attention to safety!" This time we went into the mountains together, and when encountering danger, Lin Yan always rushed ahead.
Even when facing monsters of Jiufeng's level, he is not afraid at all. This is undoubtedly his strength, but it is also his weakness.
Because Lin Yan would always put himself in danger for the sake of his partners. This was undoubtedly risking his life while walking on a suspended tightrope. If he wasn't careful, he would end up being shattered to pieces.
Although the danger was saved in the end, the process was always frightening, so Lin Tian hoped that he could take more care of himself.
Lin Yan naturally listened, and then Da Zhuang and other friends also said goodbye to Lin Yan.
Amidst the reluctance of the villagers, Lin Yan and the others gradually drove away in a carriage... The journey back was not as happy as when they came, and always seemed a bit dull.
Not to mention Lin Yan, even Ming Ya and Mo Li gradually fell in love with this small village after staying there for a while.
They were equally reluctant to part at this moment. Mingya said softly:
"Xiao Yanzi, don't be unhappy. Just wait until you come back after the martial arts competition." Mo Li also followed:
"Yes, yes, when the time comes, a good ranking will make Grandpa Lin Gu and the others happy!" Lin Yan turned around and said nervously:
"Will you also come together then?" Mingya was about to say
"Yes." Suddenly something came to mind, and her pretty face turned red instantly. Isn't that what Lin Yan's uncles and aunts joked about before?
If you say it yourself
"Yes", doesn't it mean that she will be his wife in the future? This is too shameful! The girl raised her head, feeling ashamed and thinking:
"This little Yanzi is getting more and more courageous. He actually dares to tease them! It's a shame that I'm still so worried about him. Huh, I have to teach him a lesson!" Mingya raised her little fist, and at the same time she didn't forget to greet Mo. Li, the two women formed a common front at this time, and together
"Crunt" Lin Yan!
"Quickly, beat this little villain to death! He dares to bully us!"
"Ah, you still dare to hide? Let's see where you run!" Within the limited space of the carriage, Lin Yan had nowhere to escape. He could only passively accept the overwhelming punches of the two girls, and let out bursts of
"Howl"!
"Oh~oh~" the voice echoed in the carriage, and Uncle Mao, who was driving the carriage outside, grinned, not caring at all that the missing front teeth were breathing involuntarily... Since they were rushing to participate in the martial arts competition, several people also I no longer have the time or thought to travel along the way.
Although I asked for leave at the time, I didn't know if the academy would have any objections after being out for so long.
"It shouldn't be possible!" Lin Yan thought, but involuntarily accelerated his journey. With a few people rushing along, it was much faster than when we arrived, but the horses couldn't bear it.
If it could talk, it would definitely complain:
"I'm just pulling the cart and carrying you, but I'm still pushing you hard. How human can I be! It's so exhausting!" When Lin Yan and his group returned to Chang'an again, At that time, the martial arts competition was about to begin. After they went home to rest, Lin Yan reported to the academy.
Because this martial arts competition was organized by the Academy, Lin Yan met up with everyone first and then went together.
This time the destination of the Three Religions Competition was chosen in the Northern Desert, which is also the headquarters of the Buddhist Sect. Unlike the three regions of the Eastern Tang Dynasty, which were fertile and rich, even the Southern Barbarians and the Western Wilderness were much stronger than it.
Most of the two areas occupied by the Northern Desert are covered by yellow sand. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a restricted area for humans.
The humans living in it rely on the few oases to survive. Materials are poor, and civilians cannot even meet the most basic survival guarantees.
But to a certain extent, this is very consistent with the teachings of Buddhism. they advocate
"Don't cultivate this life, cultivate the next life." This life is tempered in the world of mortals, and only after suffering all kinds of suffering can we achieve true transcendence.
In this way, after transforming through hardships and hardships, only then can we enjoy happiness in the next life! No one knows whether this is true or not. After all, no one has seen what their afterlife will be like, at least Lin Yan has not heard of it.
But in the Northern Desert, the Buddhist teachings have an extremely huge influence. The local people believed deeply in this idea, respected the disciples of Buddhism, and regarded their sages as gods.
As for the Buddha, he is like a savior! Most people may not understand these.
However, those believers are so fanatical and obsessed that they are even willing to sacrifice everything for it!
In fact, not only the two regions occupied by the Northern Desert, but almost all the nine regions of the Yuan Realm have Buddhist disciples preaching.
Their footprints are all over the Eastern Tang Dynasty, Southern Barbarians and Western Wilderness, and even people in remote areas are aware of the existence of the Buddha Sect.
In their teachings, the offerings of these people are beliefs, and the power of these beliefs can be used by them.
As for the specific details, this is a secret that Buddhism does not teach, and outsiders cannot pry into it. We have a long way to go, so we must be fully prepared. For example, in leading a team to teach, three Xiantian realm masters were dispatched.
The Xiantian Realm, at a time when the Heavenly and Human Realm is almost invisible, represents the top combat power of each faction.
Sending so many at once also shows that the academy attaches great importance to this martial arts competition. Of course, the role of these teachings is more to protect these students. They can't help in the martial arts competition led by the three religions. Everything has to rely on these students themselves!
Moreover, this martial arts competition is not limited to disciples of the three religions, some first-class sects and other sects will also send people to participate.
The academy is declining day by day, and these people are all watching it. It can be said that the situation is serious and we have to guard against it!
In addition to Lin Yan and Bai Shan, the two newly promoted inner court disciples, old acquaintances such as Yuan Hao and Tu Tian also came, and there were also some unknown disciples. Judging from their auras, they were all extremely tyrannical beings!
In addition, in addition to these disciples who will participate in the martial arts competition, the academy also selected a group of disciples from the outer courtyard to visit and study. Ming Ya, Li Zongsheng and others were among them.
It's just that Dahai didn't choose, which made him depressed for a while. The storm is surging, all parties are gathering together, and this martial arts competition among the top young generations of Yuanjie is about to begin!
