Volume 1: Wind Rises in the Mountains and Swamps Chapter 64: Trap
For many days, Lin Yi stayed in the chariot and horse compound without going out. After finishing their work during the day, they would bask in the sun with Hu and Wan, chatting and having fun. In the evening, one person continued to try to perfect the "Hidden Spirit Technique".
Unknowingly, half a month had passed since Lin Yi came to Tianlong Sect.
On this day, Lin Yi got up early as usual, added fodder for the horses and water in the water tank. Just after he finished what he was doing, Wen Lun pulled him out of the courtyard.
"Why are you alone?" Lin asked as he walked away. The three brothers move around together and are inseparable.
Wen Lun blinked his little eyes and said disdainfully: "You still don't know that between them, one wants to save money to supplement the family income, and the other wants to save money to marry a wife! How can they be as free and easy and carefree as you and me?"
The two of them talked as they walked out of the mountain gate. Lin Yi was led by Wen Lun and walked four or five miles to a market southeast of the mountain gate.
The market is not big, no more than a mile long, but it is also full of restaurants and inns. Most of the people wandering around were disciples of the Tianlong Sect, and most of them wore gray shirts. Occasionally, there are inner disciples wearing blue shirts and green shirts among them, each with an arrogant expression, standing out from the crowd.
"This place is made up of mountain people and family members of disciples. Although the market is small, it has everything you need." Wen Lun put his hands behind his back, as if he were at home. This was his first time here. Lin Yi followed Wen Lun, looking around constantly.
Being familiar with the road, Wen Lun went straight to the store. He bought some dried fruits and meats to eat, packed a big bag, held it in his arms, shook his head and said: "It's a pity that there are no dried meats made of venison. You have to hide it later, otherwise those two guys will smell it, It was gone in a blink of an eye.”
I didn’t expect that Wen Lun had a hobby of eating snacks.
"Come on, try this preserved apricot. The meat is thick and sour, and it's very delicious!" Lin Yizheng was thinking wildly. When Wen Lun raised his hand, he hurriedly declined.
"Everyone who has seen it has a share, come and have a try!" Wen Lun's enthusiasm continued.
Lin Yi had no choice but to take a piece and throw it in his mouth. He chewed it a few times and found that it tasted pretty good. Unexpectedly, Wen Lun held up a pile of things and stretched it over again.
Lin Yi waved his hand and said, "Senior brother, thank you. A taste is enough."
Seeing that Lin Yizhen didn't like snacks, Wen Lun was no longer polite. We found a tea shop, found a table, asked the waiter to serve a pot of tea, and the two of them sat down to rest.
Lin sat down and looked around. Where we are, it's just a tea shop, but it's just a shed. The place was covered and weather-tight, with three old wooden tables and only two guests, Wen Lun and himself.
A stove was placed at the door of the shop, a large kettle was steaming, and several teapots and bowls were scattered beside it. There was only one waiter and shopkeeper, a man in his twenties or thirties. He was not tall but looked very stocky.
Wen Lun picked up the tea bowl, took a sip, and said to the waiter: "It turns out that the man here is an old man. Where did he go?"
Hearing what Wen Lun said, Lin Yi also glanced at the guy.
The waiter looked uneasy, nodded and said: "It turns out that your guest is a regular customer here. No wonder he asked about my uncle. This is my uncle's shop. He is resting at home because of the cold. I am the only one at home. I’ll come here to help take care of you for a few days.”
Wen Lun ate another piece of preserved fruit and nodded casually: "That's it, haha!"
The waiter smiled apologetically and glanced at Lin Yi, just in time to meet his gaze. He shrank his head, smiled humbly, and turned to put away the tea bowl.
Lin Yi stared at the waiter's back. After a while, he frowned and slowly picked up the teacup.
A figure flashed in front of the shop door. The waiter raised his head to look at the visitor, but did not come forward to say hello. He lowered his head and was busy with the work in hand.
The visitor stopped, glanced at Lin Yi and Wen Lun, showed resentment in his eyes, turned around and left.
Wen Lun was enjoying the food and didn't even notice anyone coming. Lin Yi lowered his head to sip and seemed not to notice the movement outside the shop.
"I came early today, otherwise I could go to the restaurant to get some food and wine to satisfy my cravings." Wen Lun filled Lin Yi's cup of tea with a cheerful expression.
Lin Yi looked at Wen Lun curiously and asked, "If you don't go back to eat, don't you need to say hello to Brother Pi?"
Wen Lun shook his head and said nonchalantly: "No need, just go back before dark." He smiled at Lin Yi again and said: "If Hu Wan and Shen Ding knew that you and I were drinking here, why not Don’t starve them to death.”
After drinking another glass of water, Wen Lun smacked his lips and rolled his eyes a few times. He thought to himself that the food and wine were not cheap, he didn't have much money, and Junior Brother Lin only received a share of money, but he didn't buy anything when he came to the market, so he was probably not a generous owner.
Thinking of this, Wen Lun couldn't help but lose interest and said: "But, it seems that you and I are not authentic! That's all, let's call them together next time!"
Lin Yi smiled noncommittally. At this moment, a person walked in outside the tea shop, and they both looked up at the same time.
"I passed by here just now, but I didn't pay much attention. Who is my Junior Brother Lin here? Something bad is going to happen..." The person who came had a yellow face and wolf eyes, looking panicked.
Lin Yi slowly stood up and asked with a puzzled face: "What makes Senior Brother Jin so panicked?"
The person who came was actually Jin Ke, with a panicked look on his face, as if he was worried. He walked closer, lowered his tone, and said sincerely: "Early this morning, I invited Junior Sister Xu to come here to play, and then went to the east of the market to enjoy the scenery. Unexpectedly, Junior Sister was accidentally bitten by a poisonous snake, and she fell down in an instant. On the ground. Brother Yu has never encountered such an accident. What should we do?"
Jin Ke rubbed his hands together, looking confused.
Raising his eyebrows, Lin Yi stared at Jin Ke and said thoughtfully: "There are disciples from the patrol at the market. Senior brother, have you ever gone to ask for help?"
"How dare I? I'm afraid I'll be punished for this matter! Didn't I just meet my junior brother! My junior sister fell in the woods, her life or death is uncertain! What should I do! Junior brother has a way, and this matter cannot be delayed. "Jin Ke was so anxious that his voice trembled and he begged sincerely.
Lin Yi pondered for a moment, nodded and said, "My little brother will go to the door to ask for advice. Senior brother will go take care of junior sister. I can take someone to look for her later. Is that okay?"
Jin Ke's face was full of anxiety, and he hurriedly waved his hand and said: "No, the place where Junior Sister Xu is is very remote and difficult to find. If Junior Brother can't find the place when he comes, it will be troublesome. Otherwise, I will take Junior Brother to Junior Sister first At..."
"Then it will be according to what senior brother said..." Before Lin Yi finished speaking, Jin Ke looked happy and said hurriedly: "It doesn't matter without further delay, junior brother, follow me quickly. This senior brother, please come with us!"
Wen Lun blinked his little eyes and nodded curiously.
Unexpectedly, Lin Yi waved his hand to stop him and said: "No need, I can go alone. Senior Brother Wen will stay here for a while, I will be back in a moment. Let's go, Senior Brother Jin!" After saying this, he nodded to Wen Lun and raised his feet. Go outside.
Wen Lun looked confused. He didn't know why Junior Brother Lin didn't let him go and see the excitement, so he had to stand still.
Jin Ke's eyes twitched, looking slightly helpless.
When Lin walked out of the tea shop, his eyes accidentally glanced at the tea shop clerk, and he said without looking back: "Senior brother, why don't you lead the way..."
Jin Ke hurriedly ran out.
"It's not far ahead, and we'll be there in a while. Alas! It's all my fault today, but it's really hurting Junior Sister Xu!" Jin Ke complained as he walked.
"Why don't you carry Junior Sister Xu back to the mountain gate? Instead of doing this, it will waste time."
Lin Yi's steps were slow and slow, and his tone was calm, as if he was reminding Jin Ke with good intentions.
Jin Ke looked a little busy and embarrassed. He kept looking at Lin Yi with his eyes, and said repeatedly: "What the junior brother said is absolutely true, but...men and women are not close to each other, and even if the junior sister is asleep, I dare not move, lest it be detrimental to the junior sister! "
Lin Yiyi showed no expression and said quietly: "Senior brother is also a polite and cautious person."
While talking, the two left the market and walked another four or five miles.
Gradually, there is no more mountain path at the foot, and there are rocks, dense weeds and woods.
Lin Yi slowed down and said in a deep voice: "Senior Brother Jin, where is Junior Sister Xu?"
Jin Ke's feet became light, and he paused when he heard the sound. He turned around and said with a smile: "We're here now. Just cross this hill. Hurry up!" He waved to Lin Yi frequently as he spoke, as if he couldn't wait. He took the lead and climbed up a hill in front of him.
Lin Yi followed him and crossed the hill.
Surrounded by rocks and woods, there is a small clearing. Jin Ke stood with his chest raised, his brows unable to conceal his pride.
Seeing Lin Yi slowly walking over, he smiled and said, "Boy, how is this place?"
Lin Yi seemed worried about the change in Jin Ke's expression and tone. He nodded slowly and said, "This place is very quiet. Why did you lie to me to come here?"
"Haha, you brat is very sensible. You can see that I am lying to you. If you are so well-behaved, maybe I will let you go!" Jin Ke had a sneer on his lips.
"Oh, that means Lin can't escape today?" Lin Yi's voice became colder.
Jin Kezhi was very proud and paced back and forth. Looking at the prey in his hands, he was in a good mood.
"How can a country bumpkin be recommended by the Escort Bureau to join the Tianlong Sect with me? If I hadn't been scrupulous, I would have taught you a lesson. You won't be able to escape today even if you have wings." Jin Ke couldn't help but feel proud, and then It was a burst of weird laughter.
Lin Yi nodded silently. He looked at Jin Ke helplessly and said: "This place is only a few steps away from the sect. Isn't Senior Brother Jin afraid of the sect's rules? And I came here with senior brother, and some people saw it. Could it be that Senior Brother Jin really has no scruples?”
Jin Ke looked gloomy and sneered: "Haha, look at your pitiful appearance now, I will kill you and bury you. Who cares about the whereabouts of a horse-raising disciple? Your horse-raising senior brother, I will too I won’t let him go. In the Foreign Affairs Hall, do you think people will believe my words, or will they believe the words of a horse breeder?”
Lin Yi looked at Jin Ke indifferently. After a long time, he slowly said: "Why do you treat me like this? What happened today is really not good?"
Jin Ke's face became ferocious and impatient, and he said arrogantly: "You don't need to know what I want to do to you. I only blame you for making me dislike you, and blame you for your misery. But... It's not difficult to spare you, just swallow this." Jin Ke said, taking out a pill from his arms.
Lin Yi frowned and said, "What is this?"
Jin Ke's tone alternated between happy and sad, and his expression was also unpredictable. He smiled strangely and said: "This is a good thing. It's called the 'Heart-Lost Pill'. After swallowing this, you will become obedient and listen to my words. Even if you are asked to kill your own mother and I, You will do it obediently. Gaga, it’s a pity that this thing is so expensive, so lucky for you brat!”
Lin Yi's eyes turned cold and he shouted in a deep voice: "Presumptuous——!"
Jin Ke didn't take Lin Yi's rebuke seriously. He whipped out a dagger and said viciously: "Boy, I give you two ways. One is to swallow the pill, and the other is to let me kill you with one blow."
Lin Yi's eyes shone slightly, and he glanced at Jin Ke with disdain. He raised his head and said coldly: "Everyone, come out..."
