After an unknown number of days, Ji Ye woke up leisurely, opened his eyes, and saw what seemed to be a cave dome in front of him.

He knocked on his groggy head and sat up. His limbs and chest were no longer as swollen and painful as before. Only his left arm was so painful that he couldn't use any strength. He probably received Li Xiaose's last palm and was struck by internal force.

The shock caused some fractures.

Recalling the backlash of the fire poison at that time, Ji Ye still had lingering fears. If the old man hadn't absorbed the fire poison overflowing in his meridians at the last moment, he might have died in the backyard of the palace.

Ji Ye looked around and saw that he was indeed in a cave the size of a wing. He was lying on a slightly higher open space with a straw mat under him. In addition to a bonfire that was about to go out, there was nothing in the cave.

Nothing else.

It was probably the old man who brought him here, Ji Ye thought.

And the hoarse voice of the old man came from outside the cave entrance: "Boy, are you awake?"

Ji Ye was startled when he suddenly heard human voices, thinking to himself, how could he know that I was awake when he was outside the cave?

Walking out of the cave with doubts, I saw a pool on the right side of the cave entrance, connected to a waterfall. However, in the depth of winter, the flowing water had frozen and turned into streaks of ice.

Looking at the old man again, he was tall and thin, with white hair tied up, but he was only wearing a plain brown singlet. He was sitting cross-legged facing the pool, and remained motionless despite the cold wind.

Ji Ye took two more steps forward. Before he could speak, he heard the old man say: "Boy, your name is Li Zhuohua?"

Hearing his sudden words, Ji Ye was shocked. Cold sweat broke out in spite of the severe cold. His heart beat like a drum in panic. He thought that only the old man and a few people in the villa knew his name as Li Zhuohua. No, Fang Yu

, I also told Fang Yu, could it be that he betrayed me?

After thinking about it in the blink of an eye, Ji Ye immediately turned around, hurried to the straw mat to get his sword, then returned to the entrance of the cave, raised the sword in front of him, and said as if facing a formidable enemy: "Who are you? How do you know my real name?"

?" After saying this, I secretly regretted it in my heart. Doesn't saying this mean that I have admitted it?

The old man turned around and suddenly stood up and flashed in front of Ji Ye like lightning.

When Ji Ye saw this, he wanted to draw his sword, but as soon as the sword was halfway out, the old man pushed it back. The sword and scabbard were snatched away by him for some unknown reason, and in the blink of an eye, he backhanded him on his shoulder.

Looking at the old man's sharp eyebrows and aquiline nose, he looked at Ji Ye with a pair of narrow eyes and said indifferently: "What? You still want to attack me, but I'm not like that old boy Li Shangyang, who can't use half of my inner strength to treat you as gently as you do."

When Ji Ye saw him mentioning the old man, he probably wasn't the one who wanted to harm him. His nervously beating heart relaxed and he said, "You know the old man? But the old man asked you to come and save me? And now the old man

Where?"

After hearing this, the old man frowned and said impatiently: "Why do you have so many questions?" He gently threw up the iron sword, turned around and sat back on the edge of the pool and continued: "Do you know who owns this sword in your hand?

Object?"

Ji Ye took it steadily with both hands, but was a little confused by this question. He said doubtfully: "Whose thing is it? Of course I bought it with silver. This is Ruo Neighbor... A friend gave it to me for fifty taels of silver."

Gotta get it.”

The old man laughed twice and said, "Buy it? This sword was used by Li Shangyang when we were young and came out of the mountains. It was a gift from the master and is called 'Lan Ke'."

Ji Ye pulled out the long sword and looked down. This sword had been with him through life and death several times, and he had a deep relationship with it. He asked, "Then why was it in the hands of the blacksmith when we were in Yunzhou?"

The old man still didn't look back and said calmly: "If what I remember is correct, this Lanke sword should have been placed in the ancestral hall of Feiyun Mountain. It seems that the two of them took it specially and placed it in the hands of the blacksmith.

Waiting for you to come get it."

Ji Ye was even more puzzled after hearing this. How did the old man and Uncle Wei Jing know that he would come to buy this iron sword? Could it be that someone had tipped him off since he left the villa, or maybe there was a secret from the beginning to the end in Yunzhou?

Protect each other?

It concerned the old man and Uncle Wei Jing, so he would not feel that such an act was harming him, but the truth about it would have to wait until the next time they meet.

So Ji Ye asked again: "From what I just said, you must be the old man's senior brother? I don't know the old man's name yet."

The old man turned around and said slightly angrily: "The old man you are talking about is Li Shangyang, right? Why, do I look older than him? My surname is Lin, my first name is Guanyi, and I am his junior brother."

"Junior brother? I can be regarded as the old man's apprentice, so you are my uncle. Please pay my respects to Uncle Lin." Ji Ye raised his hands and bowed to Lin Guanyai.

After learning that he was indeed related to the old man, Ji Ye felt much better, and the sadness before fainting was temporarily forgotten.

Lin Yaoyao still slightly angrily rebuked: "Uncle, what kind of uncle? I don't have a nephew like you. I was beaten like that by that stupid boy. If you tell me, Lin Yaoyuan, you will lose your reputation."

Already."

Although he was very scornful and merciless, when Ji Ye cupped his hand, he stood up in time to accept the gift and then sat back down.

Recalling the palm confrontation with Li Xiaose, Ji Ye touched the back of his head in embarrassment and said: "His inner strength is strong. Even if I try my best to use the inner strength of fire poison, I can't be as good as him. I still have to thank my uncle for saving his life. If not

If you show up in time, I'm afraid that when the internal injuries are fully developed, you will explode and die soon."

Lin Yaoyao shook his head and said: "If you want to thank me, just save it to thank the old man you are talking about. He will not die by exploding his body. That old boy Li Shangyang..."

In the middle of his words, he looked at Ji Ye curling his lips and changed his words: "My senior brother has long widened your meridians, so that even though the true energy in your body is violent and violent, the meridians will not be broken, and because you have been suffering from it all year round,

After being tortured by the toxins of Xuanhuo Gong, the meridians are stronger than those of ordinary people. However, people's mental heartstrings always have elasticity and toughness. If they experience pain and tension for too long, or if the pain is too severe and cannot be tolerated, the heartstrings will break, and the human heartstrings will break.

He will go crazy and be like a dead person."

As he spoke, he seemed to have remembered something and looked sharply at the water of the pool.

Ji Ye raised his eyebrows and said: "Sure enough, the old man asked you to come to rescue him? No, no, since he came so timely, he must have followed him all the way?"

Lin Yaoyao said: "He asked me to rescue you, but I just arrived in Beijing a few days ago. I heard that there was an ancestor worship ceremony on the fifth day of the lunar month, so I found you based on the portrait." He took it from his arms.

Make a rolled up picture.

Ji Ye took the painting and opened it to look at it. It was indeed a painting of himself. He didn't know which one was painted by the old man or Wei Jingshu, so he asked again: "Then where is the old man now? They didn't come with you.

Snow Country?”

Lin Yaoyao shook his head and said, "No, that old boy seems to have gone to find something." He slightly raised his eyes and glanced at Ji Ye, and then said, "Besides, it's useless for them to follow."

Ji Ye was thinking about Li Shangyang in his heart, and when he heard what he said, he became angry and asked: "What, then you have a solution? The old man has taken care of me for many years. Without him, I would have turned into a pile of ashes.

How useless?”

Lin Guanyai was not annoyed after hearing this. He just looked at Ji Ye's dissatisfied expression and said calmly: "Of course I have a solution, otherwise I wouldn't be entrusted by him to come to find you. Do you know why your old man has been there for so many years?

This internal problem of yours has not been completely cured?"
