"What's going on?" Lin Yi frowned, stretched out his hand to touch Chu Kuang's pulse, and found nothing wrong, it didn't look like he was poisoned, and there was no sign of injury.
"Daddy! What's the matter with you?"
Chu Xiaoxiang also noticed the abnormality here, and held Chu Kuang's big hand anxiously.
"What's the matter, Lord Hou?" Everyone was at a loss.
After a long time, Chu Kuang opened his eyes, the scarlet in his eyes dissipated, and his body returned to calm. He waved his hand and said, "I'm fine, it's just that something went wrong with my practice."
"Okay! The exchange meeting is over, let's leave. In three days, someone will pick you up to Chuling College."
Forced to squeeze out a smile, Chu Kuang left the high platform directly after finishing speaking, and looked at his leaving back, everyone looked blank.
"What happened to Lord Hou? What happened just now?"
"Could it be injured, or poisoned?"
"How is it possible? Master Hou is so powerful, who can injure him, I think he has gone mad because of his practice."
"Nonsense..."
Everyone was unclear, so they were discussing in low voices.
"What's the matter?" Lin Yi Ning frowned, extremely puzzled, he just felt Chu Kuang's pulse, he was neither poisoned nor injured, and as for the madness, it didn't exist.
According to Chu Kuang's cultivation base, it is impossible for his body to have such symptoms. It is impossible for a strong man like him to say that he is overworked or sick.
Lin Yi couldn't figure out the key point, which made Lin Yi feel unbelievable.
"Lin Yi, what's the matter with my father?" Chu Xiaoxiang looked worried.
Lin Yi smiled and comforted, "It's okay, don't worry, it may be that you have encountered some difficulties in cultivation, and with Master Hou's cultivation, it shouldn't be a problem."
"Yeah! I'm going to see my father!" Chu Xiaoxiang nodded, still worried, and left the martial arts arena following Chu Kuang's footsteps.
...
late at night.
"Ah~~~ah~~~"
The miserable cry suddenly resounded in Hou Ye's mansion, and spread far in the quiet night, many people could hear it clearly.
"Who is calling? What happened?"
"I don't know, maybe a thief broke in."
"Go and have a look. Someone must be here. Who is so brave to break into the Marquis' mansion at night?"
The people in Hou Ye's mansion were alarmed, and some strong men searched around.
"Um?"
Lin Yi opened his eyes, and suddenly felt that the scream was familiar, but he couldn't remember it for a while.
He went out to check around, and found that Lin Chuang and others were all safe and sound, and did not find anyone who could be found, so he returned to the room.
early morning.
tuk tuk tuk...
Hearing the knock on the door, Lin Yi jumped out of bed, opened the door, and saw Chu Xiaoxiang standing at the door with a smile.
"Princess, why did you come so early?" Lin Yi was surprised, it was just dawn and Chu Xiaoxiang came too early.
Chu Xiaoxiang coquettishly said, "I'm not welcome?"
Lin Yi shrugged.
"Your family is here. I brought her here to see you."
Chu Xiaoxiang moved away while talking, and a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl came into view, with an oval face, crescent eyes, fair skin, and a slightly excited smile.
This girl is none other than his father Lin Zhanao's maid, Situ Jiao.
"It's you!"
Lin Yi was extremely surprised, he never expected that Situ Jiao would come to Marquis Wuyue's mansion, and what surprised him even more was that Situ Jiao's cultivation had also broken through the realm of energy transformation.
"Master."
Situ Jiao saluted, and when she saw Lin Yi, she looked very pleasantly surprised. Now, her attitude towards Lin Yi has undergone an earth-shaking change.
"Come in!"
Lin Yi smiled, let the two into the room and sat down, and picked up the teapot to pour water.
"Why are you here? Did you enter Chu Ling Academy with me?"
Lin Yi sat down and asked like this. He felt that Situ Jiao's cultivation base had entered the realm of energy transformation, and she already had the qualifications to enter Chuling Academy.
Situ Jiao shook her head and said with a smile, "No, my adoptive father asked me to come, and he asked me to come here to give you something."
"My father?"
Lin Yi was puzzled, so he asked, "What?"
For a long time, he didn't know his mysterious cheap father, and the two of them had almost no communication, and he didn't understand why his father suddenly gave him something.
"Here! See for yourself!"
Situ Jiao looked weird, and casually threw a burden on the table.
"What, so mysterious?"
Lin Yi opened the package smoothly, and inside was a cloth bag. After opening the cloth bag, it was a weapon in the shape of a kitchen knife, with a scabbard made of animal skin on the outside, which was a bit worn out.
Picking up the kitchen knife was extremely heavy, weighing over a hundred catties.
Pulling out the kitchen knife, Lin Yi and Chu Xiaoxiang were a little dumbfounded. It was a rusty kitchen knife with large and small cracks on the knife. The blade is thick and dark, and it is unknown what kind of material it is made of.
"This..." Chu Xiaoxiang was speechless, she never imagined that Lin Yi's family came here from thousands of miles away, just to give this broken kitchen knife.
"What else did father say?"
Lin Yi had a thoughtful expression on his face. Based on his understanding of Lin Zhanao, the latter must have his intentions for sending this sick kitchen knife.
"Uh..." Situ Jiao scratched her head, she was also very puzzled, why Lin Yi's father asked her to give such a weird thing.
"That's right! My adoptive father said, if you come across something unclean, you should chop it with a kitchen knife." Situ Jiao said.
"An unclean thing?"
Lin Yi's eyes changed, and he couldn't help but congeal his breathing. He immediately thought of Yin Bing. But things were too unimaginable. How did Lin Zhanao know that he had met Yin soldiers in the distant Black Rock City. Lin Yi thought carefully and was terrified.
"Father, father, what kind of existence are you?" Lin Yi stared at the kitchen knife for a long time, silent.
"let me see!"
Chu Xiaoxiang grabbed the kitchen knife, looked at it carefully, and then said, "It's strange, this is just an ordinary kitchen knife, but it's a bit heavier, and it doesn't look like a spirit weapon. Lin Yi, why did your father send you such a knife?" Broken kitchen knife?"
Chu Xiaoxiang was puzzled, and then returned the kitchen knife to Lin Yi.
The spirit weapon she mentioned is a more advanced weapon that can be used in conjunction with spirit energy. Only warriors in the Mysterious Realm are qualified to use that kind of weapon.
"Family heirloom knife."
Lin Yi took the kitchen knife, put it into the scabbard, and put it close to his body. He knew in his heart that this kitchen knife might be of great use in the future.
"cut!"
Chu Xiaoxiang curled her lips. Whose family heirloom knife is a rusty kitchen knife?
The morning sun is just right, bright and mild.
Lin Yi took Situ Jiao and Chu Xiaoxiang to play in Wuyue City for half a day. At noon, Situ Jiao left and hurried back to Heiyan City.
Only Lin Yi and Chu Xiaoxiang were left, and they wandered around the city for a long time before returning to Lord Hou's Mansion at night.
It was about to enter Chu Ling College, Lin Yi also relaxed for two days and gave himself a holiday.
During this period of time in Wuyue City, he has been practicing hard, and with the battle of hundreds of people, he didn't even have time to rest.
So I decided to take a good rest for two days and wait to enter Chuling Academy.
Back at Lord Hou's mansion at night, Lin Yi took a refreshing bath, and then fell asleep with his head covered.
"It's so cold...I'm so cold..."
Lin Yi only felt as if he was in a world of ice and snow, so cold that his blood seemed to be freezing.
I wanted to open my eyes, but found that there was no strength at all. There is a dark world in front of you.
The whole world is immersed in loneliness, coldness, and darkness, and the only thing he can do is to think.
"Brother Yi! Are you cold? Don't be afraid, Xueer is here, Xueer will protect you, brother Yi is not afraid. Xueer holds you, and you will not be cold."
A warm and soft body leaned over, hugging Lin Yi's body tightly, which made him feel more comfortable.
In this dark world of ice and snow, there is only a trace of warmth. But like a warm wind blowing from the ocean, Lin Yi's trembling body calmed down.
"Brother Yi! Is it better now?"
"Brother Yi, Xueer will protect you, will protect you... Don't be afraid... Don't be afraid..."
"You must wake up, Brother Yi, you must wake up, Xueer is still waiting for you to buy me candied haws? Woooooooo..."
"Xue'er! Don't cry, I will definitely not die, I must live, I will buy candied haws for Xueer, buy a lot of candied haws for Xueer, let Xueer eat every day."
"Oh~~"
clatter. clatter. clatter.
A sigh, accompanied by heavy steps, made Lin Yi's peaceful body tremble. As if the footsteps came from the devil in hell.
"He...here...he's here...no...don't...don't!"
"Xue'er... You protect him like this, you are harming him, this is his life. Only in this way can he survive."
"I...Xue'er understands, but Brother Yi, he...tomorrow...can't you?"
"no!"
da da da ~~
The footsteps were getting closer, and Lin Yi's body trembled even more.
"No! Xue'er...save me, Xue'er save me." Lin Yi shouted silently in his own world.
"Brother Yi...you must persevere, I believe you will not die. You will not die. You are my brother Yi, and I will not allow you to die." The soft body left Lin Yi, and the whole world became colder.
puff--
The cold and sharp thing pierced into his body, Lin Yi's eyes went dark and he lost consciousness.
"Xue'er save me~~"
Lin Yi suddenly sat up from the bed, his face turned pale, and his whole body was drenched with sweat.
"Hoo hoo~~~"
After taking a few breaths, Lin Yi jumped off the bed, opened the door and walked out of the room, looked at the sky, the east was pale, and it was almost dawn.
It was that nightmare again, what exactly did it represent? And Cher? Is she real, or does she only exist in her dreams?
Looking at the sky with deep pupils, Lin Yi suddenly felt inexplicably lonely.
