Five hundred and ninetieth chapters old man's trust
"Little friend Xingjue, since you want to know Shishi's life experience so much, let me tell you!"
But just when Xing Jue was full of doubts, an old man's voice suddenly came from behind him. When Xing Jue saw the old man, he couldn't help but be shocked, because that person turned out to be Grandpa Wang from the village.
However, at this moment, Grandpa Wang was actually riding Zixia, standing in the air, and standing not far from Xing Jue.
The most important thing is that Xing Jue was actually unable to sense his strength, let alone his aura. It could be said that he appeared silently within Xing Jue's perception range.
"Little friend Xingjue, don't be surprised. I am just a junior Shura warrior. I am able to hide my aura because of the treasure left by Shishi's mother." Somewhere in the Bihai Forest, Grandpa Wang and Xingjue were sitting cross-legged.
, eyes facing each other.
"Grandpa Wang, why are you hiding your strength? Are you really guarding something?" Xing Jue asked anxiously, he really couldn't wait to know everything about this place.
"It's a long story, Xing Jue, do you know who the current headmaster of Wuji Academy is?" Grandpa Wang did not answer Xing Jue's question directly, but asked rhetorically.
"The leader of Wujiyuan is the most powerful person in the Ming Dynasty, Hong Qiang!"
Although Xingjue entered Wujiyuan not long ago, he still heard about the name of the headmaster of Wujiyuan.
He was a top genius who had already become the most powerful person in the Ming Dynasty before he reached forty. He became the successor to the headmaster position of Wujiyuan and controlled everything of the Wujiyuan, the most powerful force in the Ming Dynasty.
"Actually, Shishi is Na Hong Qiang's biological daughter!" Grandpa Wang said with a smile.
"What? But Shi Shi's surname is Lin?" Xing Jue looked surprised.
"Shishi takes her mother's surname, and her mother's name is Lin Wan."
"Miss Lin Wan, although she is not a disciple of Wuji Academy, she is still a rare genius."
"And Miss Lin Wan is very similar to Shi Shi. Their talent is not in cultivation, but in refining medicine!"
"The Lin family has been passed down from generation to generation and has a long history. It is the first family in the Ming Dynasty."
"Speaking of which, the Lin family at the time was definitely considered the top force in the Ming Dynasty. Although it was not as good as Wujiyuan, it was not a small sect that could be provoked."
"It's just that the Lin family has always been low-key and few people know about it!" When he said this, a look of emotion appeared on Grandpa Wang's face. It seemed that he had witnessed the glory of the Lin family with his own eyes and still remembered it freshly.
Seeing this situation, Xing Jue did not interrupt, but listened quietly, because he knew that Grandpa Wang was ready to tell him everything, and this was something he wanted to know very much.
"I think you must be curious as to why Shishi's mastery of refining medicine is more advanced than that of Wuji Academy, and her understanding of immortal grass is more detailed than that of Wuji Academy." Grandpa Wang suddenly asked with a smile, and Xing
Jue nodded fiercely, because this was indeed what he wanted to know.
"Actually, all this is not accidental, but because the Lin family is a family that mainly specializes in refining medicine."
"The Lin family's alchemy skills were so exquisite that during its peak period more than a thousand years ago, not to mention the Wuji Academy, even the top forces in the Soul Origin World were far behind it."
"Because of this, many powerful forces want to take the Lin family as their own and come to recruit them."
"However, the Lin family has been passed down from generation to generation. Due to the ancestral precepts, they will never submit to any force, so they politely refuse all invitations from those behemoths!"
"But it is precisely because of this that some forces are angry and feel that the Lin family looks down on them, so they secretly send strong men to attack the Lin family, causing the Lin family to suffer a disaster."
"Although they were lucky enough to escape from the same clan, the Lin family's strength was greatly reduced, and they finally came to the unknown Ming Dynasty, but they still escaped." Grandpa Wang said the glorious history of the Lin family, his face full of tears.
The color of glory.
"Unexpectedly, Shishi actually has such a background!" When he heard this, even Xingjue couldn't help but take a breath.
The soul source world is as vast as it is boundless, and the Ming Kingdom is just a desolate place in the eyes of a truly strong person.
And even though the forces like the Wujiyuan were kings and hegemons in the Ming Kingdom, compared to the center of the Soul Origin World, those behemoths were nothing more than rubbish in the eyes of others, beings that could be destroyed with a snap of a finger.
The Lin family's alchemy skills are actually ranked at the top level in the world. It can be seen that the strength of the Lin family back then was very important. If it had not been obliterated by those top forces, it would have been unimaginable. At least it was far beyond what the Wuji Academy could do.
The existence of comparison.
"Ha... It seems that it is a bit far. That is just a history of more than a thousand years ago. Speaking of it, it has nothing to do with the Lin family of the Ming Dynasty, not to mention that the Lin family no longer exists!" Suddenly, Grandpa Wang's face changed.
A wry smile appeared on his face.
"What? You said the Lin family no longer exists?"
"Of course, if not, how could Shishi end up here?"
"Then who destroyed the Lin family? Is it Wujiyuan?"
"Of course not. Although the Lin family is not as glorious as a thousand years ago and is just a remnant of the clan, if Wujiyuan dares to harm the Lin family, it will definitely pay a heavy price!"
"Who did that?"
"I don't know either. Back then, I was just a slave of the Lin family. I accompanied Miss Lin Wan on her travels, and I was lucky enough to escape the disaster."
"Then... how did Shishi's mother meet Hong Qiang, the headmaster of Wujiyuan? Where is Shishi's mother now?" After hearing this, Xing Jue realized that the Lin family no longer existed, but
Xingjue was even more curious about the whereabouts of Shishi's mother.
"The Lin family was destroyed, and we, the surviving slaves, followed Miss Lin Wan and continued to remain anonymous."
"However, the young lady was unwilling to let the Lin family be expelled, so she decided to look for outstanding descendants in the Ming Dynasty, create a good relationship, and preserve the blood of the Lin family."
"At that time, although Hong Qiang was only a disciple of Wuji Academy, the lady took a fancy to his extraordinary potential. Eventually, the two fell in love and used fairy grass to refine medicine to help Hong Qiang practice!"
"I thought everything would be fine, but I didn't know that things were unpredictable. In order to compete for the position of the headmaster, Hong Qiang actually abandoned the young lady and married the headmaster's daughter."
"But Hong Qiang didn't know that the young lady at that time was pregnant with him, and that was Shishi."
"After being abandoned, the lady was not disheartened. Instead, she worked hard and vowed to become a strong person and make Hong Qiang regret it."
"After giving birth to Shishi, the young lady studied the art of refining medicine and the method of searching for fairy grass, and finally found the fourth-level fairy grass in this blue sea forest."
"Although the young lady's cultivation talent is mediocre, with the help of the fourth-level fairy grass, she can achieve a cultivation speed far beyond that of ordinary people. One day she will surpass Hong Qiang."
"But the fourth-level fairy grass is too powerful. Although the young lady at that time was already a junior martial artist, she was far from her opponent."
"The lady who finally found the fourth-level fairy grass was unwilling to miss this opportunity, so she used the Lin family's sealing method to seal the fourth-level fairy grass in the blue sea forest at the cost of her own life."
"When the young lady passed away, she told me to protect the fairy grass."
"And let us teach Shi Shilin's family the art of refining medicine and the method of finding grass. When Shi Shi succeeds in her cultivation, we can then unlock the seal and take the fourth-level fairy grass as our own!"
"As a slave of the Lin family, I must take the young lady's legacy as my responsibility, but how did I know that just three years ago, Hong Qiang, who had already become the headmaster of Wujiyuan, somehow learned that the young lady was pregnant with a daughter for her, and he also found her.
Here."
"You should also know what happened later. Although Shishi was taken to Wujiyuan by Hong Qiang, Shishi not only has no flesh-and-blood feelings for Hong Qiang, but on the contrary hates him deeply!"
"Shishi went to Wujiyuan just to get better medicine refining resources and training conditions, but whether she was refining medicine or practicing, she relied on herself, because Shishi never trusted anyone."
Grandpa Wang slowly told about the Lin family, Shi Shi's mother, and everything about Shi Shi's past, and Xing Jue heard every word in his heart. At this moment, Xing Jue's emotions were very complicated, because he finally learned about Lin Shishi's indifference.
reason.
Moreover, Xing Jue now unconsciously felt sympathy for Lin Shishi. Although Xing Jue had also experienced the pain of being an orphan, at least his parents cared for him very much and they loved each other very much.
It was just a helpless move on his part, in the final analysis it was all for him.
In comparison, Lin Shishi is much more pitiful, because his father once betrayed her and her mother. Even if his conscience finds out now and wants to make amends, it is probably impossible to erase Lin Shishi's hatred for him.
, because from a certain perspective, the death of Shishi’s mother is inseparable from her father.
"Shishi came back this time for the fourth-level fairy grass."
"Since she is willing to invite you over, it shows that she trusts you very much."
"So little friend Xingjue, I beg you, please help me persuade Shishi not to think about the fourth-level jelly grass for the time being, because she is the only bloodline of the Lin family!" Suddenly, Grandpa Wang knelt down on Xingjue's body.
In front of him, he cried and begged.
"Grandpa Wang, what are you doing?"
"If even you can't dissuade Shishi, then there's even less I can do!"
"However, I promise you that as long as I, Xing Jue, am alive, I will never let any accident happen to Shi Shi!" Seeing this, Xing Jue hurriedly helped Grandpa Wang up, feeling the old man's trembling body and that
The old face was covered with tears, and Xing Jue felt sad in his heart.
At this moment, Xing Xing made up his mind. No matter what happened, he would protect Lin Shishi. Even if it was not for others, he would do it just for the old man in front of him.
He told him everything about the Lin family within less than a day of his acquaintance, which shows how much the old man trusts Xing Jue, a trust that Xing Jue cannot bear to live up to.
After learning everything, Xing Jue and Grandpa Wang returned to the village at different times in order not to arouse Lin Shishi's suspicion.
In the following days, Lin Shishi had been preparing something and never showed up.
As for Xingjue, in addition to daily practice, he also practices self-mutilation in the bone-chilling third-level body-refining essence every day.
Fortunately, with the dual effects of the Shura Condensation Stone and the third-level body refining essence, the speed of Xing Jue's practice has also skyrocketed, and his life-saving practice has not been in vain.
In such a life, a month passed quietly. On the 30th day after arriving in the village, Lin Shishi, who had disappeared for nearly a month, finally appeared in front of Xing Jue again.
