Jiang Lin looked at him again and said with a hint of ridicule: "Since you know, you still bring these people here."
"To be honest, young hero, although Xu Shitong is powerful, he dare not show his face in front of us." This man was quite confident, as if he had something under his control.
"Why?" Jiang Lin asked.
"Young hero, do you know how old Xu Shitong is this year?" This man gave up.
"Looking at his appearance, he must be at least seventy years old."
The man shook his head and smiled mysteriously: "He is already three hundred and three this year."
Jiang Lin was a little surprised to hear this age. Recalling the scene of the fight in the Double Horn Peak, he couldn't help but be secretly surprised that such a young man could have such advanced skills. It seemed that practitioners couldn't judge it with common sense.
Seeing Jiang Lin's surprised look, the man continued: "Xu Shitong served the demon and got many ways to prolong life, but he was so vicious that he had to kill the people to maintain it. We got it from the immortal master enshrined in Kaiyuan Mansion. There are many methods of restraint, maybe we can’t defeat him with fists and kicks, but as long as he dares to show up, I will let him die without a burial place.”
"Then you took the risk this time just to capture him and bring him to justice?"
"Of course not. The death of his surnamed Xu is not a pity. We still want to find traces of the demon this time, and then the immortal master will come forward to expel him, as long as he is not in Kaiyuan Mansion."
The night was as dark as ink. Jiang Lin looked up and could vaguely see the outline of the double-horned peak. At first glance, it looked like a devil with two horns.
Jiang Lin roughly told what happened at Shuangjiao Peak, but some of them were not mentioned. After listening to this, the man's brows knitted into a knot. He only believed 10% of what he said, and many details were not correct.
Of course, Jiang Lin would not tell him the truth. He would just tell them some things for the sake of letting them work. If it were any deeper, Jiang Lin would definitely not tell him, in case he got into any trouble.
After this incident, Jiang Lin gained a new understanding of the world. At the same time, he lowered his head and glanced at his heart. Through the gap in his clothes, there was a fist-sized black stone embedded in his heart. This stone had been mixed with His flesh and blood blended together without any discomfort.
When Jiang Lin saw this scene for the first time, he couldn't help but want to curse. Didn't he promise to change his heart? Why did you get a stone and put it inside?
But being able to come out alive is the best ending for Jiang Lin.
Late at night, Jiang Lin was sitting alone beside the coffin, with the flickering candlelight reflecting on his face. Everyone else was already dozing off.
At this time, Jiang Lin felt that something had changed in him. His six senses could no longer be described as sensitive. The breathing and heartbeats of the people around him could be heard clearly. He even thought that he could detect the blood flowing in the other person's body.
As his perception of the surrounding environment became clearer and clearer, Jiang Lin felt a strange feeling in his body. He felt like he was nestled in an eggshell. There seemed to be an inexplicable force suppressing him around him. The feeling of being broken out of the body became stronger and stronger.
With a dull and powerful heartbeat, Jiang Lin took a long breath, and the feeling of restraint disappeared. A faint light flashed in his eyes, and he looked at the candlestick next to him. With a thought, the candlelight went out.
At dawn the next day, Jiang Lin, who had been watching all night, did not trouble these people anymore and let them go.
He himself buried his adoptive father next to the yard. After cutting a stone tablet, Jiang Lin had some difficulties when writing the inscription.
He doesn't know the last name of this old guy, so he can't let his adoptive father take his last name. This is somewhat treasonous.
Moreover, Jiang Lin is still a little curious about his own life experience, but this matter seems to have fallen into disuse. Everyone else is dead, so how can he know his own life experience.
Jiang Lin sighed, quickly dug out a few words on the stone tablet with his fingers, and then embedded the stone tablet into the soil with one palm.
After doing all this, Jiang Lin couldn't help but feel a little confused. Now he was the only one left in the place where he had lived for so many years.
There was nothing to deal with, so Jiang Lin turned around and left.
In the past, Jiang Lin wanted to go out and see the outside world, but the man at home always wanted to be taken care of, so Jiang Lin had not been able to do so. Now that he has no worries, and the special encounter before, he is willing to continue Stay here and be a bandit.
Another reason is that Jiang Lin is worried about his enemies coming. You must know that there are four monks, and one of them left first. If he finds that the other three companions have not returned, will he come back to check what happened? Just in case, Leaving Liangjie Mountain is an excellent choice.
It was still so clean along the way. It was no wonder that the two groups of Flower Necks and Lao Scarface from Shuangjiao Peak fought fiercely. Most of the bandits in the Two Boundary Mountains died there, so the world was naturally clean.
When he thought of this, Jiang Lin opened his clothes and looked again. There was still dark stone skin on his heart, but it was much smaller. He believed that it would be completely healed like a wound in a short time.
He kept walking in the southwest direction. He planned to cross the Wugen Sand Sea and go to the Nanyue Kingdom first. People who had heard of traveling merchants in the past said that the Nanyue Kingdom was a huge behemoth with a vast territory. It had nine counties and twelve states, and was worshiped by all countries. It is said that the national master He is also a Taoist immortal master who blesses the South Vietnam country with good weather and peace every year.
Just as he was thinking about it, a group of people in front of him caught Jiang Lin's attention. After taking a look, he walked up quickly.
Not far away, a dozen people holding swords surrounded an old man in white. The old man was carrying a bamboo basket and holding a rope in his hand, with a monkey tied to the rope.
This little monkey was over a foot tall. He glared at these people with his bared teeth. The hair all over his body was golden and had a metallic sheen.
"stop!"
The dozen or so people were stunned, and when they turned around, they found Jiang Lin walking towards them. The leader touched his face, snorted, and said angrily: "What? Your father's funeral is over, this road It's under our control, do you want to pry it off?"
But before he finished speaking, Jiang Lin stepped forward and Yang slapped him again. This time the force was really hard. The man's eyes suddenly went dark, and he volleyed several times before falling to the ground. , everything in front of you is blurry.
Others greeted the guy one after another, but they kept moving back when facing Jiang Lin.
"For the sake of your father's coffin, I'll just teach you a lesson this time." Jiang Lin didn't have any murderous intentions, he just shouted these people away.
After receiving a slap in the face, the man felt chills all over just by looking at him. Jiang Lin felt like he was being stared at by a wild beast. With the help of his men, he became dejected after saying a harsh word. leave.
After drinking these people away, Jiang Lin looked at the old man in white in front of him and said with a smile: "What a coincidence, we meet again."
This man was the old man whom Jiang Lin had robbed of a bunch of grapes not long ago. He didn't expect to meet him again here.
"Yes, little brother, where are you going?" The old man had a kind face and spoke kindly and kindly, which made people feel comfortable.
Jiang Lin laughed it off and just said he had to leave here because he had something to do. Then he looked at the little monkey squatting on the ground, and his heart suddenly skipped a beat.
Suddenly, an absurd feeling came over him, and he felt that this monkey could tear him apart in an instant.
"It's okay to leave here. The mountains and rivers here are poor, and the luck is also very bad. It's not a place to stay for a long time. How about we stay together?"
Jiang Lin smiled and said, "No, we are not going along the way. If there are still people blocking the road, you might be able to avoid them if you tell me Jiang Lin's name."
After saying that, Jiang Lin left straight away, walking very quickly, and disappeared in front of the old man in a short while.
The old man stroked his beard and nodded with satisfaction, while the monkey at his feet actually said human words: "This man has a strong demonic aura, and I don't like him."
The old man looked at him, his eyes full of doting, and he said lightly: "It's interesting... let's go back to the mountain."
