The Murters' clan. The Linke manor.
Say hello to your grandfather for me, and tell him that I will visit him later and ask him how he is. He will never write to me about these things, "Selina's face softened, and she gently patted Linke's head," Cohen, you've grown up, so you must learn to take care of yourself after leaving your mother's side. Although some servants will follow you to the imperial capital, it's not easy for the imperial city, so you have to be on your guard; furthermore, your grandfather won't be bullied like in the Wind City.
Lin Ke nodded his head frequently. He understood these principles. As a person, before reaching a certain level of strength, doing something so careful and cautious was not considered a humiliation. The truly strong would know how to endure more, and those who truly stood at the peak would always experience twists and turns, this was the principle.
She would not be able to send Lin Ke off tomorrow, but he understood very well. He also told her to take care of herself, and that simple instruction almost made her cry. Sometimes, the feeling her parents needed was really simple.
The next morning, Rincewind set off.
The big black horse was happy that he was no longer confined to what he considered to be too small a circle.
After not seeing it for a few months, the height of the black horse did not continue to increase, but its pair of horns had gained a few strands of yellow threads from its original light gray foundation, making it look even more peculiar. Upon closer inspection, one would discover that the lines of the black horse's muscles had become even denser and softer, but they were full of explosive power.
It seems that swallowing a drop of blood really caused you to experience an unimaginable change, "Linke patted the big black horse's neck. The latter intimately avoided his sharp horn, lowered his head, and rubbed his chest with his side. He was a little amused as he thought of the crazy look this guy had when he took out the bead of blood in front of the horse.
This was the first place he had been in since arriving in this world. It was also the only place in his previous life that he had deeply recognized and recognized. It was his home.
"Big brother Cohen, are you really reluctant to leave? If you're not, you should save some more time." Daisy ran over. She had been accompanied by her friends for the past few days, so she seemed much more lively.
Lin Ke helped her straighten the huge butterfly knot on her head, then pinched her cheek and said, "It's not like she won't come back, so what's there to be reluctant about? I heard that War God Academy has a three-month vacation every year, and when that happens, I'm afraid little Daisy will grow a lot taller."
Daisy shook her arms in distress and lowered her head in silence.
Rhine and the other elders other than Paul, the elder who had been guarding Novinha, came to the square in front of the gate to send off Linke. Rhine and the other elders, other than Paul, who had been guarding Novinha, came to the square in front of the gate to send off Linke.
Be careful on the road, when we reach Liu City, stay with your grandfather for a few days, then you will have to take the road to the imperial city. There will be people from our family's Chamber of Commerce to help you, and our family's courtyard will also be located near the Chamber of Commerce. Your elder brother will be staying there, although it's not big, but it's enough for you to stay with him, "Rhine revealed a rare faint smile, one hand on Daisy's head, while the other hand on Lin Ke's shoulder was nagging," In addition, your second brother Mentou will also be at the imperial city's Chamber of Commerce.
Linke nodded his head repeatedly, making Rhine feel gratified.
"Serena isn't here yet. Firstly, she's really busy, and secondly, she can't stand such a scene. You have to understand her," Fourth Elder Randolph said.
"Take care of the good boys," Quincy spoke slowly to Seventh Elder Heller, who nodded firmly with a rigid expression.
"You must enter the academy, and don't embarrass the clan," Third Elder Rhodes calmly said.
Second Elder Shan Di was the last to speak. "Take good care of yourself."
He was the leader of the sixteen escort knights personally assigned by Lin Ke. He was also the most powerful of the sixteen, having recently broken through to the Fourth Stage of Bear Strength. His name was Leo, and he had been with Rhine in the army for several years.
"Master, elders, young master Cohen, the team is ready. We can set off at any time!" Leo's voice was filled with the toughness of the army.
"Then let's go," Rhine said, giving Leo a military salute.
The black horse was no longer as easy to control as it had been before. He waited for Neil, Lily, Xue'er and the others to get on the black horse, and then Eeller got on the horse and galloped to the front of the group, waving his hand and saying, "Let's go!"
After the team left, Link suddenly turned around and shouted at Rhine, who hadn't moved for a long time!
"Grandfather, you are here, waiting for the name of Cohen Moutes to resound through the empire!"
His voice lingered for a long time.

The great river went east, passing a thousand miles without returning.
Green pines lined both sides of the river.
Originally, he thought that he had long been immune to the natural environment of this world. However, when he boarded the merchant ship and left the port, he entered the river and was still captivated by the sight before him.
Three to four miles wide, the river was a deep blue, with no bottom to be seen. There was no end on both sides of the river. The ground was flat and the vegetation was lush.
The wind was beautiful and the sun was beautiful. The sky was clear and the clouds were blue.
Standing on top of the tall ship, one could see that the great river connected to the sky and the lush green of the sky. This caused one's mood to reach its peak, and the depressing feeling of leaving home immediately lessened.
"Young Master, your big black horse refused to enter the cabin no matter what, and its size is too big, so it was thrown directly onto the deck." Xue'er walked to Lin Ke's side, bringing up the scattered wind, causing Lin Ke to be stunned as he looked at the picturesque scenery.
"Oh, oh okay, just let it be there," Lin Ke said blushing a little, "This fellow is not really a horse anymore. Since it has its own intelligence, then let it have its own way." He looked at Xue'er's slightly red face, and his heart began to throb with a strange feeling, secretly sighing that this was indeed the most beautiful woman in the world.
Xue'er didn't have any intention of running away. She just stayed by Lin Ke's side shyly to accompany him in watching the scenery. At this time, the big black guy, Neil, seemed to be a little eyesore.
So, the beauty, the beauty, and the platform at the top of the ship made Rincewind feel drunk to death for a moment.
"What are you doing?" Lilisse suddenly walked out of the cabin, looking at the approaching couple with a puzzled expression.
Rincewind found himself inexorably approaching Cheryl, who had her apple-red face lowered in silence.
"Aha, Lilisse," Lin Ke's mind quickly spun out some tricks to change the topic, but his originally extremely strong reaction speed seemed to become a little unusable at this moment, "Look at this scenery, tsk tsk, it's really beautiful!"
Lilisse looked at Lin Ke with a puzzled expression before asking, "What kind of beautiful scenery is there? A river and a forest? It's very normal, it's really strange." She walked to Xue'er's side and stared at her flushed red face as she said that, "What happened to your face? If the wind is too strong, why don't I accompany you back to the cabin to talk? "
Xue'er's face became even redder. She hurriedly nodded and returned to the cabin with Lilisse.
Only Rincewind was left alone in the wind.
The beauty had become flawed.
After a day's sail, Link stayed at the top floor for a day.
During this time, they saw a few castles near the river, but the fleet did not stop. After all, Lin Ke and her group would be delayed in Liu City for a few more days, and their family's caravan still hoped to arrive at the imperial capital as soon as possible. Lin Ke did not want to talk about such a small matter.
The next day at sunset, according to the original plan, Liu Cheng could be considered as having entered the region.
Although they were sailing against the river, according to the current speed, they would arrive at Liu City in the morning.
Link wasn't in a hurry. He had been in this world for half a year, but things always happened in a rush. He needed some time to calm down and think about some things.
His current strength on the surface was that of a Wind Magician at the peak of the fourth stage of Bear Strength. Before he grew strong enough, wind magic would always be the full power of his power in front of others, and the dark magic that had already secretly reached the peak of the fifth stage of Bear Strength could only be hidden unless absolutely necessary, as if it had never existed in the first place.
But strangely, when he felt the wind element strength had an increase, the darkness element strength would also rise. Wendell, this guy, didn't tell him what the Pope of the Dark Church should have been like in his cultivation state, but thinking about it, it was impossible for him to find such a good opportunity for him to gain twice his strength with half the effort. In regards to this, he could only console himself with the unknown black stone in the depths of his soul.
In addition, Lin Ke urgently wanted to go to the War God Academy instead of waiting for a few more years. Besides the environment there being better suitable for cultivation, learning some systematic magic knowledge as well as storing some magic skills for future use were also important reasons.
There were usually a few books on the basic skills and training methods of the different professions in the Xiong Li realm, but when it came to the Gigantic Strength realm, the family would usually have very few books and scrolls, not to mention the Dragon-Power Realm, which was just above it. Even for a powerful family like Rhine, who had been in the army for many years, the combat skills that he had mastered were very few, and as for dragon-skills that could be used as trump cards, they only had one, and it seemed that he was very proud of it.
The spellcasters were a little bit better, although the books of the Energetic Strength Realm were rare, they could often be bought or exchanged for a few. But the books of the Dragon Strength Realm really weren't much better than those of the battlemasters, to the point that many of the Magicians of the Dragon Strength Realm were still using the Energetic Strength Realm magic.
The various situations were complicated, but based on the experiences of his previous life, he could only summarize it with four words, "cherish and cherish what you have."
