With theout any hesitation, Chu Yun's body will appear under medicine cliff next moment even if he flies in air.
"Ah --"
In the young man's confused cry, Chu Yun held it up with one hand and then fell down.
When his feet touched the ground, the boy gasped and regained his mind. He looked at Chu Yun in shock, breathing heavily, and his forehead was covered with cold sweat.
"It's all right."
Chu Yun smiled faintly, patted the dust on the boy's shoulder and said, "be careful next time, little guy."
With that, Chu Yun turned around and wanted to leave.
"... just a moment, please."
At this time, the boy took a deep breath, suddenly opened his mouth and stopped Chu Yun.
Chu Yun turned slowly and said calmly, "if you want to thank me, you don't have to. It's just a little effort."
The young man's face was calm and his lips closed tightly. At a young age, his eyes revealed a vicissitudes inconsistent with his age. He handed the broken part of the rope tied around his waist to Chu Yun and said, "Sir, if you leave now, I'm afraid I'll die in a few days."
"Oh?"
Chu Yun's eyebrows picked up, his eyes fell on the broken rope, and his eyebrows soon frowned.
Because the rope was not broken naturally, half of it was broken, while the other half was relatively smooth. It was obviously cut by someone with a sharp tool, and there was a little solidified colloidal object at the fracture. It was obviously cut off by someone and then pasted again. It was deliberately treated.
"You knew the rope would break?"
Chu Yun asked.
"I don't know..."
The young man took a deep breath and shook his head: "if I knew, how could I risk my life... However, the rope for collecting medicine at Yaoya is related to human life. It had to be checked in advance. Now it's broken. I don't need to see. Someone must have killed me and bought the staff of the factotum..."
Chu Yun smelled the speech, his face showed a look of interest and said, "then, what do you want to do when you stop me? Do you want me to continue to protect you? "
"... yes."
The young man pursed his lips and said with difficulty: "Sir has saved me once. Now I still have this request, which is tantamount to advancing an inch. If Mr. Lin Xuan doesn't want to, he also understands very much."
At the moment, dozens of eyes from the mountain wall of medicine cliff looked at it in surprise. Just now, the young Lin Xuan fell from the cliff, but he was rescued. This matter undoubtedly attracted the attention of many people.
Chu Yun smiled and didn't say whether to promise or not. He put his hand on the boy's shoulder and said, "there are many people here. Let's go to a quiet place."
With that, Chu Yun took the boy to a peak outside the medicine cliff. When he got there and put the boy down, Chu Yun smiled and said, "tell me, who are you and who wants to kill you?"
“……”
The boy took a deep breath and slowly exhaled: "Mr. Hui's words are in xialinxuan..."
It turned out that this young man named Lin Xuan was a registered disciple of the Lingtian sect of the Yuan Dynasty.
In the Lingtian sect of Yuan Taoism, disciples are basically divided into five levels, from high to low, followed by true disciples, inner disciples, outer disciples, registered disciples and factotum disciples.
Among them, true disciples, inner disciples and outer disciples belong to formal disciples, while registered disciples and factotum disciples are reserve soldiers outside.
So
What do you think of a novice disciple, a registered disciple or a factotum disciple?
It's very simple. Those with money are registered disciples and those without money are factotum disciples.
In the outside world, a rich family wants to send their children to the practice of Lingtian sect of Yuan Dao. After meeting the qualification conditions, they can choose whether to donate or not. If they donate a certain amount, their children can obtain the identity of registered disciple and join the practice of Lingtian sect of Yuan Dao.
A family without money sends a child to join the Lingtian sect of Yuan Dao. Because he cannot provide donations, he will be assigned to the factotum department after entering the sect door to obtain the resources of practice by doing factotum.
For example, picking herbs at Yaoya is what the factotum disciples have to do.
Lin Xuan is not a worker disciple, but a registered disciple, but does the work of a worker disciple. It can be said that he is the most special of all the registered disciples in the outer court.
He came from the Lin family in Guangwu city. He is the only legitimate son of the family owner Lin Zhentian and the future heir of the Lin family.
The Lin family has been inherited in Guangwu city for hundreds of years and has a great career. Its owner Lin Zhentian is a strong person in the supreme territory. Once upon a time, when Lin Xuan joined the outer courtyard of Lingtian sect of Yuan Dao, he was also the envy and flattery of many registered disciples.
But unfortunately
The weather is unpredictable, and people have misfortunes and blessings overnight.
Two months ago, Guangwu city suffered an attack. The Lin family led troops to resist and was unfortunately defeated.
Overnight, the Lin family was destroyed, Guangwu city was in a mess, leaving only Lin Xuan, a single seedling, alone in the Lingtian sect of Yuan Dao.
Although Lin Xuan escaped the disaster of destroying the door, his days in the sect also fell thousands of feet in a flash. Because the Lin family was destroyed, no one could deliver practice resources for Lin Xuan.
Even though he was a registered disciple, he had to commit himself to the factotum department to maintain his survival and obtain cultivation resources by doing factotum.
So
Who made the broken rope on the medicine cliff?
Who was it that planned to kill such a miserable young man?
In fact, the answer lies in Lin Xuan himself.
A few months ago, when Lin Xuan just joined the yuan Daoling Tianzong outer court, he didn't come alone. He was also accompanied by a maid of his age, named sun Xier.
Although she is a handmaid, she has a rare talent called Tanling magic pupil. She was attracted by a saint and directly accepted as a disciple.
This is a good thing. Lin Xuan thought so at first, because although sun Xier was a maid, she grew up with Lin Xuan since childhood. They are called master servants, but they are actually brothers and sisters.
But
Unexpectedly, sun Xier soon showed her nature after she boarded the branch to be a Phoenix.
In the past, when the Lin family was not destroyed, Lin Xuan had a large number of cultivation resources delivered by the Lin family. At that time, sun Xier often contacted Lin Xuan and cheated Lin Xuan's cultivation resources on the grounds that she didn't want to be left behind by other senior brothers and sisters.
After the collapse of the Lin family, sun Xier suddenly seemed to not know Lin Xuan. Only at the beginning, she hypocritically looked at Lin Xuan once and comforted him. After that, she never met Lin Xuan again.
In this regard, although Lin Xuan was very sad, he didn't scold anything.
Because he knows a truth - morality is used to restrain himself, not others.
Although sun Xier's move can be called a white eyed wolf, in fact, since Sun Xier was accepted as a disciple by the elder, the relationship between the two sides has been no longer a master and servant, and sun Xier has no obligation to help him.
It took a long time for Lin Xuan to come out of the grief of the collapse of his family and the betrayal of his maid. He thought that his difficulties would stop at most.
But who knows
The tree wants to be quiet, but the wind doesn't stop.
For some people, Lin Xuan's existence itself is already a thorn in the eye and a thorn in the flesh.
