"Xiaoyi, what's going on? Are you really not a lost soul?" Li Chengqian asked.
At this time, everyone calmed down. Changle and Bing'er stopped crying, and Li Chunfeng stopped making trouble. They all wanted to hear what Lin Yi had to say!
"What kind of soul have I lost? I was going through a tribulation. I have to go through a tribulation after cultivating to a certain level. It's just that I didn't expect it to appear in this way." Lin Yi explained, complaining a little at the same time.
Now that he was awake, he thought about it carefully and realized that his experience was an illusion. It should be said that it was something that he could not let go of in his heart, and it appeared in front of him with the catastrophe.
Fortunately, he could realize that he was living in an illusion, otherwise, he might have been in a coma for the rest of his life! Thinking about it now, he was still a little scared.
In fact, I should also thank my two fiancées and these brothers. If it weren't for their calls, I don't know when I would wake up.
"Do we have to experience that in the future? Xiaoyi, tell me, what kind of natural disaster is that?" Li Chengqian asked the question that everyone wants to know. They are also cultivators. If Lin Yi wants to overcome the disaster, he will definitely
I will have to make it myself in the future.
"It was a fantasy, very similar to the real situation. What is shown will be the life you have always longed for." Lin Yi recalled, that was the regret in his heart, and it was also the time when he wanted to go back and make up for it the most.
It must be the obsession in my heart that caused this disaster.
The life that he has always longed for? Li Chengqian suddenly remembered that when he first met Lin Yi, the days in Zhangjiazhuang were the happiest ones he had ever lived.
However, Lin Ying's figure appeared in Changsun Chong's mind, and he looked forward to his future married life.
"But that's not necessarily the case. Heavenly catastrophes usually come in the form of thunder catastrophes. To put it bluntly, God uses thunder to strike you. If you pass it, you'll pass it. If you can't pass it, you'll die!" Lin Yi was not trying to scare them, he was just telling the truth.
The message recorded on the bamboo slips.
But the bamboo slips did not mention that there was such a phantom-like catastrophe. It seemed that his great-grandson either didn't know about it, or he thought that the probability of such an event happening was so small that it could be ignored.
Lin Yi thought that it was more likely that he didn't know, because those who work with machines were strict and would record it even if there was a slight possibility.
"What do you mean? Do all cultivators deserve to die? Are you going to be struck by lightning?" Cheng Huaimo's rough voice sounded. In his opinion, this was too unreasonable. Cultivation is not about doing bad things, so does it need to be struck by lightning?
"That's right. This is not a sinful thing. Why do you have to go through the catastrophe?" Qin Wei responded.
"Because cultivation is inherently against heaven! Once you practice, your abilities will become stronger and your lifespan will be longer. Moreover, each world has its own laws. In this world, cultivators are not tolerated by God.
But I've also given you a chance. After surviving the catastrophe, you can continue to practice." It was really difficult for Lin Yi to explain to them. In fact, the difference in laws is the most important thing. There is no such thing as a catastrophe in the Magic City.
It's just that it's difficult to cultivate to a high level. Compared with this world, cultivation has become easier, but there are also natural disasters that conflict with each other. It can be said that God is still fair.
Okay. In fact, Lin Yi doesn't believe in such a thing as God at all. He just thinks this way based on the truth. But he believes that there must be something mutually reinforcing among all things. Therefore, it is natural for him that there will be a tribulation to defeat the cultivators.
of.
But for people who have never practiced cultivation, it is difficult to accept it. If you practice cultivation, it won’t harm anyone, so why should you be struck by lightning?
"Then if you don't want to survive the catastrophe, can you just stop practicing?" Changsun Chong asked. For him, being struck by lightning was a very risky thing.
It was also because Lin Yi didn't tell them how many years his life could be extended by practicing to a certain extent, so for them, this kind of risk was not worth taking.
"Yes, but you don't have to worry. It's not easy to practice to the level of overcoming tribulations. Maybe you won't be able to achieve it in your lifetime." Lin Yi gave them relief pills, and he had no intention of telling these brothers until now.
He wanted to wait until people like himself had withdrawn from the power circle of the Tang Dynasty before talking about their life span. If word spread now, he would be in a lot of trouble.
Moreover, in an inferior country, it is not a good thing to have too many cultivators. Those who don’t have relatives and friends will inevitably want to teach their families when they reach a certain level, and those people may have bad qualities.
Yes, wouldn’t that cause trouble for the people of Tang Dynasty?
"That's it, then you can rest assured." Du He said.
"Yes, yes." Fang Jun also smiled and scratched his head.
Everyone looked at his naive look, laughed, and felt relaxed. They wouldn't have to face this catastrophe for at least ten years, maybe decades, so there was no need to be nervous now.
"By the way, Lin Yi, have you been to the hot spring courtyard that was built nearby?" Changsun Chong asked.
"I've been there, I've even taken a bath in a hot spring." Lin Yi replied, but he didn't know why Changsun Chong wanted to ask this.
"What do you think of building a greenhouse here?" Changsun Chong asked thoughtfully. When he came to Lishan this time, he felt that the environment here was very good. Although most of it was mountainous, it was precisely because of this that there were no blockbusters.
With the existence of farmland, I believe that leveling the land is not a problem for Lin Yi. This is much better than Huangzhuang.
Lin Yi rubbed his chin and thought, it was not impossible, but it would depend on how much land his godfather could grant him.
"Let's do this. We haven't had much to do recently. Let's go around here tomorrow and choose a place before telling the emperor." Qin Wei suggested.
Lin Yi, Li Chengqian and Changsun Chong all looked at him sideways, saying they had nothing to do? He was the only one who had nothing to do, right?
"Okay, let's just treat it as an outing." The Cheng family brothers raised their hands and feet in agreement.
If they hadn't come out to find Lin Yi this time, they would have been detained in the military camp by their father for training! That would be really tiring! So it would be good to have some fun and go back later if there is a chance.
Lin Yi shook his head and laughed. It seemed that these people had become more playful again, but fortunately, even if they loved playing, they would not ignore business.
A group of people wandered around Lishan for a few days, playing and working together, and mapped out a large territory, ready to go back and talk to Li Shimin.
As for whether Lin Yi will open the mouth himself or leave it to Li Chengqian, they have to discuss it themselves. Anyway, other people don't care about this matter. They are only responsible for playing now.
"Who is that? Why is the horse running towards us?" Qin Wei, who was looking around, pointed diagonally forward. You must know that they are not walking on the road. If someone is running over, they must be looking for them.
Dozens of guards immediately surrounded Lin Yi and the others, staring defensively at the little black dot that was getting closer and closer.
"Uncle Liang?" Lin Yi took out his binoculars and was surprised to see that the person coming was Liang Jin, whom he had not seen for a long time.
Liang Jin was originally the captain of the bodyguard beside Li Chengqian. Later, Li Shimin probably wanted to arrange for the prince's people to join the army, so Liang Jin was sent out to train under Yuchi Jingde. Lin Yi really didn't know when he came back.
.
"Shiwei Liang? He's back?" Li Chengqian was also a little surprised.
"Welcome to the Crown Prince, to Princess Changle, to the King of Zhongshan..." Liang Jin came closer and dismounted five meters away from the guards to pay his respects.
"Okay, get up, you're not an outsider." Li Chengqian was impatient to hear him kowtow to each other one by one. Something must have happened if he came in such a hurry.
"That's right, Uncle Liang, why are you running so fast?" Lin Yi asked curiously.
"Wei Chen is here to see King Zhongshan, just to report a message." Liang Jin said with a bitter smile.
"What letter?" Li Chengqian looked at each other and asked first.
"I heard that the emperor agreed to the fourth prince's request and granted him and Lin Wu a marriage." Liang Jin's expression was distorted. He was a little confused and a little embarrassed. More importantly, he still didn't know what to do.
"What?!" Everyone exclaimed in unison.
Even Chang Le covered her mouth with her hands, showing an expression of disbelief. No matter what, she couldn't associate Xiao Wu with her fourth brother.
"No, absolutely not!" Lin Yi said firmly. He had always disliked Li Tai, so how could he possibly marry his beloved sister to him? Besides, even with Xiao Wu's temper, he could foresee the two of them.
It's impossible to live well.
"Let's hurry back. Before our father has issued the decree, we might be able to save it." Li Chengqian's expression was also very serious. Although he didn't know what Li Tai's purpose was, it was obvious that this guy had absolutely no intention.
Be kind-hearted.
"Yes, let's go back quickly." Changsun Chong also agreed.
"It's probably too late. The emperor made a decision very quickly this time. When I came out, he had already sent Eunuch Gao to the Lin Mansion to declare the decree." Liang Jin frowned. He didn't know why the emperor acted so fast.
, as if he wanted to finalize this matter before Lin Yi came back.
He came back this time because he had something to do, and he heard about it just as he was about to rush back, so he left the team and turned around to report the news.
"So, this matter has been decided?" Li Chengqian said in a daze. This was too unexpected for him. Why didn't he see any signs of it beforehand?
Lin Yi's face was solemn. He was very disappointed this time. His godfather didn't ask him when he proposed marriage to his sister. He was also afraid that he would stop him from sending the edict as quickly as he knew it. This made him feel very sad.
It's uncomfortable.
Is he too obedient? Does it make his godfather feel that he can make the decision on his own, or does his godfather simply not care about his feelings?
No matter what it was, Lin Yi felt that he and Li Shimin were no longer so harmonious. This was the first time that there was a gap between the two. No matter how Li Shimin bullied him or ordered him around in the past, he knew that this was all.
For the sake of the Tang Dynasty, he admired the emperor's hard work and caring for the people, and there seemed to be a tacit understanding between the two of them. We had a great time coming and going. You suffered a little loss this time, but I will look for you next time.
return.
But now... Lin Yi couldn't tell how he felt. In short, he felt very depressed, but it was absolutely impossible for him to admit it like this! (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to vote at Qidian ()
