Volume 1: Wind Rises in the Mountains and Lakes Chapter 34: Leaving Home
In a small mountain village with 20 to 30 households, chickens and dogs can be heard. The mountain people are simple and the neighbors are harmonious.
Life in the mountain village is quiet and peaceful.
Because of Lin Yi's arrival, Lin Kaiqu's family is full of satisfied smiles. Cui'er also put on new clothes and laughed every day.
His uncle wanted to rebuild a house for Lin Yi, but he didn't agree.
Lin Yi knew that he still had a long way to go. He was destined to leave here, but he didn't know how to start.
In summer, there is not much farm work in the mountain village. Occasionally go to the mountains to dig some herbs and hunt one or two wild game. Apart from that, Lin Yi is very free. He goes to Mr. Su's place every day to sit for a while, listen to some unheard things, understand more about the world, and know some things that his master has never taught.
But Lin Yi's practice can't continue. Without the absorption of spiritual energy, his cultivation has not improved at all.
The only thing that Lin Yi gained was the "Forging Spirit Mirror" given by Mr. Su, which turned out to be a method for cultivating spiritual consciousness. This method can be practiced alone or as an auxiliary method. The usefulness of spiritual consciousness is self-evident, but this method must have spiritual consciousness to practice, and it is useless for ordinary people.
When Lin Yi's cultivation level could not be improved, he loved "Forging Spirit Mirror". This method is simple to practice. As the cultivation level increases, the spiritual consciousness will increase exponentially. Now his spiritual consciousness has reached 150 to 160 feet away. The growth of spiritual consciousness far exceeds the cultivation level.
With the growth of spiritual consciousness, spiritual consciousness can be divided into two, two into four, and the spiritual consciousness can be separated from the body. Each wisp of spiritual consciousness can control a magic weapon. It can be imagined how great the function of the separated spiritual consciousness is.
"Forging Spirit Mirror" not only has specific methods for cultivating spiritual consciousness, but also techniques for defeating and defeating the enemy. Among them, it is divided into soul capture, soul search, soul devouring, etc.
Soul-stealing is similar to some mind-enchanting techniques in the martial arts world. Soul-searching relies on one's own powerful spiritual consciousness to forcibly enter the enemy's sea of consciousness and absorb the memory of the other party's sea of consciousness. The art of soul-devouring, as the name suggests, is to destroy the enemy's sea of consciousness, which makes people feel horrible and sinister just by imagining it.
Lin Yi believes that he is not a sinister and vicious person, but he naturally needs to study such self-defense and enemy-controlling techniques.
...
On the west mountain of the small valley, a hare was forced into a rocky corner by Lin Yi.
The hare's scarlet eyes showed panic, looking around, trying to escape.
Lin Yi stood up with concentration, pinched a seal in his hand, pointed at the hare, and shouted "Go" softly.
An invisible spiritual consciousness condensed into a needle and pierced the hare like lightning.
The rabbit, who was trying to escape, fell to the ground like being struck by lightning, and then staggered to get up again. The scarlet rabbit's eyes were full of fear. It stood there for a moment and then ran away suddenly.
Lin Yi raised the corner of his mouth and showed a helpless bitter smile. This shocking stab did not even stop the rabbit. I guess my consciousness is not strong enough. I am afraid that this technique will be useless in the future!
...
In the summer in the mountain village, the sun is scorching and the heat is unbearable. The children at the entrance of the village have long been naked. The adults are also bare-chested and backless, holding palm-leaf fans and waving. Even Mr. Su has taken off his long gown and changed into a short dress.
Lin Yi is still wearing a gray and old robe, but there is no trace of sweat on his forehead, which makes him stand out. This is also an unintentional move. After he entered the fourth level of Qi training, he has been immune to cold and heat.
Lin Yi still decided to leave here. Although he didn't know how to explain to his uncle's family, he made preparations before leaving.
After dinner, the family sat under the big tree in the yard to enjoy the cool.
"Uncle! I want to teach Cui'er martial arts!" Lin Yi said, just smiled at Cui'er and stopped talking.
Lin Kaiqu and Zhang were stunned, not knowing what Lin Yi meant.
Cui'er's big eyes sparkled with excitement, clapping her hands and saying, "Great! Great! If Cui'er had martial arts, she wouldn't have been bullied in the town last time, and dad wouldn't have been beaten."
Zhang stared at Lin Kaiqu hesitantly. The latter shook his head and sighed.
A nephew fell from the sky, which surprised the couple. This nephew was kind, gentle, and sensible, and got along well with Cui'er. In addition, the two had no sons, so Lin Kaiqu naturally treated Lin Yi as his own son.
The silver money Lin Yi took out was enough for them to live a lifetime without working. Although the couple was poor, they did not lose their true colors. After a few days of panic, life was as usual.
However, the couple had their own calculations in their hearts. After the fall, we must build a new house for Lin Yi, and then ask a matchmaker to find a beautiful daughter-in-law for this nephew.
Invisibly, Lin Yi has become the pillar and hope of this family.
But in Lin Kaiqu's heart, there is always something different from the mountain people in this nephew. He believes in his nephew's character, but he doesn't know what he really thinks. This is also the reason why the couple feel uneasy.
Good things are afraid of being lost, and the nephew is also the same. In addition, this nephew is young, but he beats Mr. Li so well that the town guard dare not pursue it. But you have to know that Mr. Li is the brother of the town guard!
In the hearts of the couple, this nephew is an unfathomable person.
But thinking too much, the couple can't help but feel uneasy. Can this small mountain village, this family, keep this nephew?
The family only has Cui'er's big eyes, blinking, circling around the three people.
After a long time, Lin Kaiqu raised his head and said with reluctance in his voice: "Xiao Yi! Your aunt and I understood your thoughts before you didn't let me build a house for you. Now, have you decided to leave?"
Tweety's big eyes were stunned, she grabbed Xiao Yi's sleeve and said anxiously: "Brother, are you leaving? Are you leaving Tweety? Will you never come back again?" Before she could finish her words, she cried. The sound has turned into a cry.
Lin Yi didn't expect this, and felt guilty in his heart. Unexpectedly, his honest and loyal uncle had already noticed what was on his mind.
After pondering for a moment, he patted Tweety's shoulder and said in a relaxed tone: "Tweety, if I teach you martial arts, you can protect your parents from being bullied. I want to go around the world and see it! I want to see how high this world is, and whether there are gods outside this world! One day, I want to come back and tell you, okay?”
"Brother, Tweety can't bear to leave you!" Tweety hugged Lin Yi's neck and sobbed sadly.
The loss and reluctance of his uncle and aunt fell deeply into Lin Yi's heart. He said softly: "Uncle! Aunt! The money I left is enough for the family. If Cui'er knows some martial arts, it will be useful in emergencies. Xiao Yi may not leave Shang Kingdom for a while. These things These are all plans for the future!”
"Does Xiao Yi want to stay away from Shang Kingdom?" Lin Kaiqu asked in shock.
"Maybe in the future!" Lin nodded. His tone was still relaxed, just to hide his inner uneasiness.
In life, there are always some things that cannot be avoided and have to be faced.
…
The top of Xishan Mountain is Cui'er's favorite place to stay in the past two months.
The wormwood on the mountain is green with faint yellow spots, as if it has released all its life. The chirping of insects in the crevices of the rocks seems to be singing the brilliance of summer, and it also seems to be playing the most glorious song in a short life.
On the top of the mountain under the moonlit night, Lin stood quietly in a corner. Not far away, sometimes silver flowers bloom and sometimes willows dance gracefully. That was Cui Er practicing her sword.
Lin Yiben is not a person who values his own affairs, let alone his own family. But he knew only swordsmanship, so he went to the town and bought a long sword. He also asked Brother Lu to add fine steel to it, re-quench it and give it to Cui'er.
Cui Er holds a long sword, dancing with the sword, and the sword moves with the people. The sword body occasionally explodes with a few rays of silver light, and then disappears in the moonlight, turning into a series of cold wind sounds in the ears.
Tweety likes to dance with the sword in front of her brother.
She didn't want her brother to leave, and the only thing she could do was to practice the martial arts taught by her brother well so that she could be happy.
As his footsteps moved, he was more than two feet away. His figure was light and elegant, and his sword moves were sharp, like a master who had practiced martial arts for many years.
Lin Yi saw it and sighed secretly. After he used spiritual energy to open up Cui Er's meridians, he saved her decades of hard work in practicing internal energy. But after a few weeks of the spiritual energy running through Cui'er's meridians, it dissipated on its own, and there was no trace left in the body, just like the previous blessing. Obviously, Cui'er is also unable to practice the Xuantian Heart Technique.
With the meridians open and the mystical gate open, you can feel and absorb the spiritual energy, use this to temper your internal organs, and then you can embark on the path of cultivating immortality. What Lin Yi didn't understand was that he and Cui'er were blood relatives. Could it be that Cui'er didn't have the spiritual roots to cultivate immortality, but he did?
This one-in-a-million opportunity happened to him? Lin Yi doesn't think that embarking on an unknown road is a blessing!
…
Under the big tree at the entrance of the village.
The roots of this old tree stretch out from the ground like a horned dragon spreading its body. Lin Yi leaned on it and said to Mr. Su on the other side: "This is the wine my master likes to drink. I invite you to drink it!"
Mr. Su's body is still upright, whether standing or sitting, he looks as proud as a natural bamboo.
"Don't forget my daughter's name...!" Mr. Su looked deeply at Lin Yi and reached out to take the wine gourd.
"Su Xueyun, Ding Mao, was born in Jiyou, and his nickname is Yun'er!" Lin Yi read softly.
"Heaven and earth last for eternity, and this body will never be found again; life only lasts for a hundred years, and this day is the easiest to live. Phew! This wine is so refreshing!" Mr. Su took a sip, stroking his beard and praising. There was a faint trace of wine on his face, and the wrinkles on his face stretched out, as if he had countless vicissitudes of life and countless emotions.
…
In the fiery summer, after squandering the passion of life, there is withering and gain between heaven and earth; there is also parting when there is an encounter!
…
"The house still needs to be built, let's wait until Xiao Yi comes back to live in it!" Lin Kaiqu squatted on the threshold and said in a naive voice. His loyal and honest expression revealed determination!
There was a sigh in the room! Mrs. Zhang held a piece of cloth in her hand and said to herself: "I wanted to make more clothes for the child, but who would have thought that he would just leave in silence like this? Poor child!"
Cui'er sat at the stone table under the big tree, holding her chin in her little hands, looking at the Western Mountain with her bright eyes.
"Brother, remember to tell Cui'er the legend of the fairy when you come back. Don't forget it!" A line of crystal tears slid down his cheeks.
…
One day in autumn, Lin Yi left.
No goodbyes were said, and no one was alarmed.
A person left quietly.
