Chapter 116 Elder Xiao Arrives
Tian Lin only ate a few bites of food before going to another room to see Zhong Wuji.
He really doesn't care about Zhong Wuji's life and death. As for the friendship in "Travel Notes", he has already paid it off with Han Yue.
And the reason why he came to see Zhong Wuji's situation was just because of his status as a Palm Peak disciple.
"Senior Brother Zhong looks miserable now, but in fact, since he is crazy, he can no longer understand the pain."
Looking at Zhong Wuji who was tied up with iron ropes and gagged with a piece of cloth, Tian Lin did not show any disgust.
But as soon as he entered the house, he actually smelled the stench of urine and feces.
"Why do you have to block senior brother's mouth?"
Tian Lin turned his head and glanced at Han Yue. Han Yue frowned as if she didn't want to say anything, but Senior Brother Zhao next to him had a strange expression on his face and said to Tian Lin:
"Senior Brother Zhong didn't know what was going on in the morning. He pointed at Senior Brother Shiqiu's aunt and said, 'I have seen her.' But Zhou Shiqiu's aunt was a disciple of the Wenxin Sect and had left the sect. How could Senior Brother Zhong meet her? Pass her?"
Tian Lin nodded when he heard the words, as if he had thought of something, and looked at Han Yue again.
But Han Yue lowered her head and obviously didn't want to speak, so Tian Lin didn't express his suspicions.
"Since Junior Brother Jiang has returned to the sect, we will wait for Junior Brother Jiang to bring back Elder Xiao's decree before making any plans. If there is a chance, we still need to cure Senior Brother Zhong's hysteria."
After Tian Lin finished speaking, he went out of the house, while Han Yue entered the house to clean up the dirt on Zhong Wuji's body.
At this time, Han Yue was not around, so Senior Brother Zhao couldn't help but said:
"This Junior Sister Han is so shameless. She only has eyes for his Senior Brother Zhong. Senior Brother Zhangfeng, you have suffered so much for her senior brothers and sisters, and yet she has never even said thank you."
Tian Lin waved his hand and said: "I saved them not because of this thank you, but because of my responsibilities as a disciple of Palm Peak. Junior Brother Zhao, you have stayed in Yaoyue Sect longer than me, and you are from a noble family. Do you know of any way to quickly enhance your spiritual awareness?”
"As far as I know, the only things that can enhance spiritual consciousness are spells and initiations——
I heard that the Heart-Questing Technique of the Wenxin Sect is a spell that consumes and enhances spiritual consciousness. There is an initiation method in their sect, that is, after the foundation builder dies, he feeds his spiritual consciousness to other people in the same sect.
Therefore, the spiritual consciousness of Wenxin Sect disciples will be much stronger than those of other sects. "
Tian Lin's heart moved, and he instantly thought of the Sixth Elder.
But the Sixth Elder was killed by Elder He, and he probably died directly.
Moreover, even if the sixth elder's spiritual consciousness is still there, it has been divided up by the people of Wenxin Sect. Where can he have his own share?
"Forget it, there's no need to mention the matter of spiritual consciousness. I don't know where Junior Brother Jiang's house is. Please take me to have a rest first."
He followed Senior Brother Zhao to a bedroom on the left. After Senior Brother Zhao left, he took out the Guitouyan from his storage bag and started eating it.
He ate Guitou Yan for a while, then circulated his Qi, and couldn't help but think of the Qinglongyu of Yaoyue Sect.
The entry for Green Dragon Fish is ‘Thunder Fish’, which can replenish Thunder Spiritual Qi and is the favorite spiritual fish of Leilinggen disciples.
The eyeballs of Zhou Shoufan that Tian Lin ate gave Tian Lin inexplicable thunder spirit roots.
Now Tian Lin can't feel the benefits of Lei Linggen, at least when he circulates his Qi, he doesn't feel any different from the past.
But if the entry did not lie to him, he did possess the Thunder Spirit Root and could eat Thunder Fish to enhance the Thunder Spirit Energy.
"What is the purpose of Zhou Shoufan setting up the A-size room to preach? If I don't have any entries, what will happen if I eat Zhou Shoufan's eyeballs?"
Tian Lin's hand feeling the dried meat of Guitou Yan was a little stiff. According to his rational analysis, that eyeball was definitely not a good thing.
Once you eat eyeballs, bad and weird things will happen.
"I ate the eyeball to cause the 'Wenxin Stone Sculpture' to break. According to Zhou Shoufan's legacy, the person who can cause the Asking Heart Stone Sculpture to break can immediately take over the position of headmaster——
In other words, he kept an eye in Room A. The preaching may be false, but it is true to choose a leader of the Asking Heart Sect among those who have practiced the art of asking the mind in the past.
But, how can he be sure that the leader he chooses can single-mindedly strengthen the Wenxin Sect and do things according to his will? "
Tian Lin would be lying if he said he was not interested in the position of the leader of Wenxin Sect.
But he knew in his heart that he could never take the position of leader of Wenxin Sect.
It's not because Wenxinzong didn't have Wenxinshan, nor is it because the people in Wenxinzong live a very simple life.
Tian Lin simply believed that no one in the Wenxin Sect wanted to obey their ancestor's will.
Not to mention the elders of the Wenxin Sect, not to mention the disciples and the woman in white.
Let’s talk about the leader of the Wenxin Sect who took the initiative to give himself the position of leader. If he was really willing to give the position to himself, would he still need to ask his disciples for their opinions?
This seems to be a fair move, but the result must be that the Wenxin Sect disciples will reject him.
Tian Lin noticed that Zhou Shiqiu's attitude toward him seemed to have become much colder at that time.
"The position of the leader of the Wenxin Sect can only belong to the Zhou family. Now that a thousand years have passed, how effective will Zhou Shoufan's words be? Unless Zhou Shoufan himself comes back to life, how can the Zhou family hand over their thousand-year savings and the fate of the family to them? What about an outsider’s hand? They won’t even marry their own daughters and sisters to outsiders—”
After thinking about this, Tian Lin spent the next few days wandering around the Wenxin Sect as an outsider.
He found that the Wenxin Sect not only ate and dressed simply, but also practiced very hard and cruelly.
The elders of the Wenxin Sect were not like the elders of the Yaoyue Sect who didn't care about worldly affairs all day long.
On the contrary, the elders of the Wenxin Sect held whips all day long, whipping those disciples who couldn't keep up with the progress.
And those disciples, except for eating and sleeping, spent most of their time practicing every day.
Two days passed in a blink of an eye. One day, a high-pitched voice of Feihe sounded in the Wenxin Sect:
"Kill, kill, kill them all!"
As soon as this high-pitched voice appeared, Han Yue and Senior Brother Zhao ran out of the house.
Han Yue didn't show much expression on his face, but Senior Brother Zhao didn't hide his happiness: "The sect sent someone to save us."
Tian Lin frowned: "If only Elder He came, we would have to die here."
As soon as Tian Lin finished speaking, a light appeared in the sky.
Elder He was seen standing on a flying sword, while his flying crane was riding on his neck and flapping its wings.
"Old fellows of the Questioning Heart Sect, do you want to fight me?"
At this moment, six rays of light suddenly appeared in the air, surrounding Elder He. Fortunately, the battle was imminent, and a flying boat approached from afar. Elder Xiao on the flying boat spoke at the bow:
"Brothers, please don't blame me for coming uninvited. It's really that my disciples have been away for too long, and I, as a master, am very worried."
After speaking, he shouted on the flying boat: "Han Yue, why don't you quickly pay homage to your master?"
Han Yue outside the farmhouse hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed: "Disciple Han Yue pays homage to the master."
Elder Xiao on the flying boat instantly locked his eyes on the farmhouse. Tian Lin and Senior Brother Zhao did not dare to be careless, and hurriedly stood up to pay homage to Elder Xiao.
Elder Xiao immediately directed the flying boat to approach Funiushan, but was stopped by the six elders of the Questioning Heart Sect. At this time, the voice of the head of the Questioning Heart Sect sounded in the distant Questioning Heart Hall: "We are guests from afar. Brothers, please don't let the brothers from the Yaoyue Sect laugh at us for not knowing etiquette."
The six elders then made way and let Elder Xiao's flying boat land at the farmhouse.
When Elder Xiao entered the farmhouse, he was surprised to see that Tian Lin and the others were safe and sound, and his brows couldn't help but frowned in confusion.
Finally, he set his eyes on Tian Lin and asked, "Did you spread the news that I have the formula of the Questioning Heart Pill?"
Tian Lin knew that Elder Xiao had thousands of questions to ask at this moment, but there were too many outsiders at this time, so even if Elder Xiao had doubts, he couldn't speak.
"My disciple deserves to die. I exposed the news of the formula of the Questioning Heart Pill without the consent of the peak master. Please punish me, elder."
Tian Lin politely apologized, and Elder Xiao knew that it was Tian Lin who came up with the idea of lying about having the formula of the Questioning Heart Pill.
But he couldn't reveal it, so he just snorted coldly with a straight face: "I'll settle this with you later, why don't you get on the flying boat with me?"
Tian Lin and his companions got on the flying boat, and the six elders riding flying swords also got on the flying boat.
The woman in white had the lowest cultivation level among the six people, and she was not an elder yet.
But she stood up and asked Elder Xiao: "How come the auxiliary elixir formula of my Wenxin Sect appeared in your Yaoyue Sect?"
How could Elder Xiao know what Tian Lin was up to?
Elder Xiao stood with his hands behind his back. Facing the question from the woman in white, he just said coldly: "You don't even want to call me Senior Brother, and you still want me to tell you the answer?"
At this time, Elder He in the air had already flown over. Elder He stood on the side of the ship and said fearlessly: "I came here with Senior Brother Xiao this time. If you are still not convinced, just have a good fight."
As soon as Elder He finished speaking, the flying crane on his neck vibrated its wings again: "Kill, kill, kill him without leaving a single piece of armor!"
This flying crane seemed to attract more hatred than Elder He. Several elders of the Questioning Heart Sect were instantly angry, and the woman in white even slapped the flying crane on Elder He's head.
Elder He reacted very quickly and disappeared from the spot in an instant.
Just when Elder He was about to use his sword energy, the voice of Master Zhou was heard again in the Heart-Searching Hall: "Brother Xiao, are you here to destroy our Heart-Searching Sect?"
Elder Xiao was not crazy. He quickly stopped Elder He and said, "Brother He, what did we say before we left? Take care of your bird and don't cause trouble for no reason."
Elder He did not use his sword energy, but the flying crane on his neck started shouting "kill, kill, kill".
In just a moment, several elders of the Heart-Searching Sect on the boat almost went berserk again.
At this time, Master Zhou's voice came, "Brother Xiao, I have prepared hot tea, why don't you come to the Heart-Searching Hall to see me?"
Elder Xiao waited until Han Yue carried Zhong Wuji on the flying boat, and then he drove the flying boat to the Heart-Searching Hall.
Tian Lin saw Elder Xiao scanning the mountain terrain of the Heart-Searching Sect, and suspected that Elder Xiao was now considering where to escape more conveniently.
Tian Lin did not know how Brother Jiang reported the situation when he returned to the sect.
But according to Tian Lin's guess, Elder Xiao probably thought that he had lied to him about the formula of the Heart-Searching Pill.
Since it was a lie, Elder Xiao knew that it would be exposed sooner or later.
That's why he brought Elder He, who loved fighting, with him. By then, the two foundation-building elders and a few disciples might be able to escape from the Heart-Searching Sect.
At this time, Tian Lin's heart was also a little confused. The will of the ancestors of the Heart-Searching Sect and the matter of the Heart-Searching Pill formula were mixed together, and things seemed to be even more difficult to control.
