"It should be okay if I talk to her, right?" Lin Ze's eyes fell on Li Kun and asked.
Li Kun was stunned for a moment, then nodded slightly. He believed that Lin Ze was a smart man and would not ignore life-threatening matters.
Soon, Lin Ze came to Wang Yuanji and put his hands on her shoulders, "Sorry, I can't go back with you now."
"Why?"
"Because I want to live." Lin Ze said seriously.
Regarding his own problems, Lin Ze saw clearly. The reason why he is alive now is entirely due to Qin Shang using his sword to renew his life. If he leaves with Wang Yuanji, although he will not die immediately, there will definitely be a dead end.
.
As Qin Shang said, there are not many people in this world who have the sword intention of wood. Lin Zhe is extremely lucky to meet Qin Shang who is willing to use his sword intention to save him. If only
Leaving like this, in that limited and short period of time, not to mention whether he can meet a second person with the sword intention of wood is a problem. Even if he does, the other person may not save him.
In this world, no one will take the initiative to choose death except when they have no choice.
Half a month ago, when Lin Ze used the Dead Wood Sword Intent to destroy the fourth sword art, he did have a death wish in his heart, but at that time, only he knew how much regret and unwillingness he had. Now, it is rare to have
How could he give up on a glimmer of hope? At least, he would not leave until he found a way to truly survive.
On the other hand, he did this for Wang Yuanji's sake.
Although Wang Yuanji is extremely talented, she has already reached the realm of refining gods at the age of sixteen. Let alone the Jin Kingdom, it is difficult to find another person with this achievement, even if you look at the entire Eastern Land, but even so, she may not be the best.
Li Kun's opponent.
After all, the age difference between the two is nearly ten years.
Although Li Kun is an honest person who speaks kindly, Lin Ze's observations during this period revealed that this person is either a hidden dragon or a crouching tiger. This is not to say that he is duplicitous, but that his strength is completely different from his low-key appearance.
...In Lin Ze's opinion, barking dogs do not bite, and silent tigers are the most terrifying.
Li Kun is undoubtedly the latter.
This kind of person is fine if he doesn't draw his sword. Once he draws his sword, everyone will be shocked.
If Lin Ze were to compare, if Wang Yuanji and Li Kun really fought, Wang Yuanji would not have any chance of winning.
Of course, Lin Ze did not say anything about this, because he believed that Wang Yuanji would definitely make some compromises for the sake of his own hope of survival.
Sure enough, when she heard that Lin Ze still relied on Qin Shang's sword power to survive, Wang Yuanji's attitude was no longer as firm as before. After hesitating for a while, she finally nodded, "Okay, I promise you, but you also have to
Promise me that you will come back alive!"
Lin Ze smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry, I am blessed with good fortune and will not die so easily."
Seeing Lin Ze's confident expression, Wang Yuanji also had a rare smile on her face. Then, she quietly winked at Lin Ze, avoiding Li Kun's sight, and a little fox got out of her clothes.
He came out, blinking his smart eyes, and then the purple light flashed and disappeared into Lin Ze's left hand.
Lin Jieze felt somewhat amused by her behavior.
Of course, what Wang Yuanji didn't know was that although she was careful, she was still discovered by Li Kun, but Li Kun ignored it, it was just a little fox, it was no big deal.
"By the way, I also want to tell Senior Wu Zhan that he doesn't have to worry about my matter. I will find a way to solve it myself."
"Yeah, I'll tell you."
After a while, Lin Ze finally followed Li Kun on the road. Wang Yuanji reluctantly watched his leaving figure until she was completely invisible, then she sighed quietly, turned around, and returned the same way.
"I've always heard that Miss Wang is as cold as ice, but she treats you completely differently. It can be seen that she likes you very much." Li Kun said this on the way. At the end, he added curiously, "That little girl
The fox is so amazing, it can actually get into your hands, how did you do it?"
Lin Ze was somewhat embarrassed when his little move was exposed.
He replied casually: "As long as there is love, everything is not a problem."
…
After a while, the two walked out of the grassland, and another forest appeared in front of them. Although he did not feel the murderous intention lurking before, Lin Ze also felt very strange after taking a few glances. He didn't know if it was an illusion.
He seemed to see some trees moving?
"This is the immobile formation, which is equivalent to a maze." Seeing the confusion on Lin Ze's face, Li Kun explained with a smile, "If you don't know how to break the formation, an outsider can walk for ten days and a half and it will be the same as not moving at all.
Both. In addition, flying is prohibited here, and even those who are strong in the virtual realm have to walk obediently on their own feet. Once here, Wu Zhan has nothing to do."
"Is it really appropriate for you to tell me this outsider in such detail?" Lin Ze asked awkwardly.
Li Kun suddenly laughed, "How can half a junior fellow apprentice be called an outsider? Besides, you don't know how to crack it anyway."
"After walking through this forest, you will arrive at our holy land for heretics."
A few hours later, under the leadership of Li Kun, Lin Ze finally walked out of the maze-like woods and came to the heretic holy land mentioned by Li Kun. However, when they saw the scene in front of them, Lin Ze and his friends were stunned.
Stunned, he murmured in disbelief: "Is this the holy land of your heretics?"
There is no need to make a fuss about Lin Ze, but the reality is very different from his imagination.
As early as when he heard about the Heretic Holy Land, Lin Ze always thought that it was a very high-end place. For example, it was heavily guarded, or a beacon altar, or a glorious palace, or something like that. In short, it would definitely surprise you.
place.
But only now did Lin Ze realize that it was not like that at all. There were no heavy troops, no altars, and no palaces. What appeared in front of him was just a small village.
It is exactly the same as the villages that can be seen everywhere outside. At a glance, there are only a few hundred households. There is smoke in some houses, and the sound of reading loudly comes from some houses. The cows are plowing in the fields, and an old man is driving them.
A group of sheep had just returned from grazing. A seven or eight-year-old boy ran home with a bottle of soy sauce. He fell down on the road, broke the soy sauce, and cried loudly.
Seeing all this, Lin Ze opened his mouth wide and was completely speechless.
This so-called heretic holy land really surprised him, but... the reason for surprise was not that it was too special, but that it was too ordinary.
Lin Ze looked at Li Kun with doubtful eyes, hoping to see some surprise on his face. If he wasn't hallucinating, then this guy was leading the wrong way.
But the result disappointed Lin Ze. There was no trace of surprise on Li Kun's face, only nostalgia and a smile.
"It's not an illusion. This is indeed the holy land of our heretics, an ordinary village." Li Kun said with a smile, "Nearly a thousand years ago, when our heretics were at their weakest, we were hunted down by countless people. In the end, only Master's family survived.
Our ancestor, Protector Qin, and a very small group of people he brought with him, then he took these people to find this place, and finally got a chance to survive, so they settled here, and then we were born."
"The people who live here don't have any skills, and everyone is extremely ordinary, because all those who have the ability have gone out, either to make their own way in the world, or to work hard for the prosperity of heretics again, but for all of us,
He said that this village is a holy place for us heretics, and it is the only place where we can calm down our minds."
Li Kun spoke quietly, with a tone that left no room for doubt.
Following Li Kun's footsteps into this village, Lin Ze found out that the facts were just as Li Kun said, the people living here were ordinary people!
Seeing two strangers entering the village, no one in the village was surprised, nor did they show any caution, because they knew very well who could enter the village, and everyone who passed by nodded in kind.
Smiling. However, a few old people were stunned for a moment after seeing Li Kun, and then happily came forward and said hello.
"Isn't this Xiao Kunzi? Why are you back?"
"I haven't seen him in almost ten years. The little devil has grown up, and I almost can't recognize him with my old eyes."
"By the way, has Mr. Qin come back with you?"
Everyone was asking questions, and even Lin Ze felt a headache after hearing it. However, Li Kun was good-tempered. He would call Aunt Zhang at one moment and Uncle Zhao at another, which was extremely cordial.
Is this heresy?
Lin Ze looked at the scene in front of him and was somewhat touched in his heart. Although he was a little disapproving when he first heard Qin Shang's "One World", here, he did feel a similar atmosphere. If the outside world could also become
If this is the case, then the universal unity pursued by heretics may no longer be a fantasy.
Of course, Lin Ze knew better that this was absolutely impossible.
Human beings will progress precisely because of struggle. This is an eternal truth.
If everyone in the world is like a dragon, and everyone is indifferent to the world, then the world will not make any progress, everything will stop, which means the end of everything.
Even if it is a dragon, it can be tall or short, fat or thin.
The onlookers were talking incessantly, and also attracted a group of children who had just finished class. They all gathered around curiously, but they did not know Li Kun. Instead, Lin Ze looked more interested and stared at him.
of looking at.
There was a little girl of five or six years old, who looked like her teeth hadn't even grown yet. While chewing her fingers, she looked at Lin Ze curiously and said in a sweet voice: "Grandpa Bai, you look good."
So young."
Lin Ze originally thought she would say something, but when he heard these words, he burst into tears.
As a sixteen-year-old boy, he was called grandpa without even being called a father. This was so embarrassing for him!
