Chapter 1595 – Soul Refining Sect’s Cause
At this time of the year, there are many scholars from all the villages and cities in the country of Zhao, either alone like Wang Lin, or in groups of three or five, traveling to the forty-nine counties in the country of Zhao where their ancestral homes are located, and only if they have earned a title and become a scholar in these forty-nine counties can they travel to the city of Suzhou to take the second imperial examination.
The name Su City originated from a man named Su Dao, a great scholar of Zhao, whose existence has made Su City the capital of literature and ink of Zhao in recent years.
In the Su City examination, the last person to stand out is called Su Jiu, in the stipulated time, all the Su Jiu, have to go to the Zhao State Kyoto, where either fly into the sky, or leave in disgrace.
Wang Lin with his parents’ expectations, with the vision of the future, stepped on the official road, behind him, there is a change of clean clothes of the middle-aged man, the man behind the back of the bamboo rows of book boxes, mouth humming a little song I do not know where to listen to, very leisurely look.
The sky is gray, but there is no rain, but the water accumulated on the official road, through the cold at the same time, but also with the soil melted together, become muddy.
Originally half a day can be to the county, until sunset dusk, Wang Lin two people only vaguely see in the distance, at dusk in the setting sun of the city.
The sun was setting in the west, and a burst of orange-yellow light shrouded the city through the clouds, and from afar, it seemed to have a feeling of dusk falling at the end of an ancient road.
“Finally arrived.” Wang Lin let out a long breath and wiped down the sweat that was seething on his forehead, he had experienced a lot of things along the way, and sometimes when he thought back, even he felt that it was very strange.
“Dafu, the county town is up ahead, we’re going to stay there for a while.” A smile appeared on Wang Lin’s face as he glanced back at the scribe behind him.
“I don’t like this name ……,” the middle aged man shook his head vigorously with a bitter face.
“I think it’s good, this name is good.” Wang Lin laughed, took Dafu, came to the gate of that city, sent the road guide opened by the village, and after being checked by the soldiers protecting the city, they let the two go in.
Although it is dusk after the rain, but this county is still extremely lively, many pedestrians on the street, mostly like Wang Lin, from all around to come here scholars, Wang Lin is considered to be a little late, and Dafu even walked four or five inns, did not find a spare room.
Seeing that the sky is getting darker and darker, Wang Lin is also a little anxious. Good to go to the last inn, there is still a vacant room, although the price is quite high, but with the sky a thunder crossed, seems to stop a day of rain and there are signs of descent, Wang Lin gritted his teeth, then let Dafu take out the silver.
Dafu from the pocket out for Wang Lin tucked silver, in a burst of meat pain, carefully take out a little, reluctant to hand over, muttering under his breath.
“Silver is not much …… heartache ah …… I seem to have experienced something before, knowing that silver is very, very important …… ”
Under his muttering, that fellow contemptuously swept a glance at Wang Lin’s duo, lazily led them to the guest room, this period of time, he has seen too many such as Wang Lin’s such a scholar, among them, there are those who are generous in their offerings, there are also those who, like Wang Lin’s duo, seem to him to be very poor people.
Wang Lin’s character is simple, although he saw the fellow’s expression, but did not put it on his mind.
The guest room was not big, it was suitable for two people to live in, only a moldy smell came to his face when he pushed open the door of the guest room, making Wang Lin frown, this season, this kind of smell was inevitable, unless it was the kind of room that was good, otherwise, it would be mostly like this.
Simply eating some food, in this guest room, Wang Lin lay on the bed with his clothes on, looking at the oil lamp on the table, the sound of Dafu’s snoring was already coming from his ears.
The bedding through the moisture, lying on it is very uncomfortable, tossed and turned for a long time, Wang Lin still can not sleep, dark sigh in the climb up, in that Dafu snoring, sat down on the table, from the bamboo rows of books, to this lamp, read up.
Was looking at looking, outside the window thunder boom, lightning rapidly staggered, that thunder burst, shocked the sky and earth, extremely violent. This some thunder boom is not a short period of time on the dissipation, but continued, the sound of the boom shrouded the county, the many sleeping people woke up.
More windy, as if the sky in this county was torn open, the endless wind whistling and whimpering, sweeping across the land, blowing pieces of muddy sand, but also the downpour of rain is also blowing, hitting a house in the county.
The snapping sound came from the window of the guest room where Wang Lin was, seeming to break through the window and enter, under this sound, Wang Lin couldn’t meditate and read, frowning and just raised his head.
But at that moment, suddenly the guest room window was violently pushed open by a strong force, the two window doors shifted inward, constantly touching the window frame next to them, and even more, a gust of wind with water droplets directly rushed in from within the window that had been opened.
The candles on the table went out, the room was immediately dark, Wang Lin’s hair was scattered by the wind, even his clothes were violently blown, the raindrops in the wind fell into the room, and even the book in Wang Lin’s hand was almost blown away without holding it steady.
Wang Lin exclaimed, immediately got up to face the wind and walked a few steps to the window, to go to re-closing the window, but at this time, a thunder boom, as if the window exploded, the violent sound seems to turn into a sound wave, so that Wang Lin’s heart and soul was shaken.
Even more so, at this time, a lightning bolt intersected, twisting and flashing in the sky in front of Wang Lin, and a strong light covered the sky, completely shrouding the county that was sleeping in the ravages of the wind and rain under the light of that lightning bolt.
In that instant, Wang Lin saw the small half of the city in the darkness ahead of him under that lightning light, and with this glance, his entire body froze.
He once again saw that white bird of prey that he had seen along the way both in his dreams and on the way, which was hovering over the sky that had been scratched by the lightning, circling back under that wind, clouds, and thunder.
Seemingly sensing Wang Lin’s gaze, that flying white bird of prey, looked down at Wang Lin, and in that moment, the gaze of one person and one bird had coalesced.
The thunder was even more intense, the lightning was even more interlaced, in that dark and bright heaven and earth, Wang Lin’s mind boomed, and the whole person stayed there, as if there was a kind of thoughts that he couldn’t say, which kept growing within his mind, and eventually turned into a vague voice.
That voice was permeated with confusion and a vicissitude, and within Wang Lin’s mind, it reverberated.
“Cause and effect …… what is cause and effect …… cause and effect, what is it ……”
The wind blew from within the window, constantly sweeping Wang Lin’s body, he stood beside that window, letting the wind pass, letting the rain fall, letting the thunder roar, letting the lightning roar, in his eyes, everything in heaven and earth dissipated, and the only thing that was left was that white flying bird in the sky.
The bird’s wings flapped, and under the thunder and lightning, it turned into a white aura that went straight to Wang Lin, almost instantly approaching, landing on the window in front of Wang Lin, standing there, with its wings retracted, silently gazing at Wang Lin.
Wang Lin looked at it for a long, long time.
“Is it you, talking to me?……” Wang Lin muttered.
“Cause and effect, what is it ……” Wang Lin’s eyes showed bewilderment, that bird of prey looked deeply at Wang Lin, the body flew up, left from the window, circled a few times in the outside, issued a hiss, rushed into the sky dark clouds, disappeared.
Although it left, but the thunder in the sky seems to roar continuously, under that increasingly violent sound, seems to disturb Wang Lin’s thoughts, he subconsciously frowned, his right hand raised toward the window outside a finger.
Under this finger, within his right eye, a lightning mark suddenly flashed, the moment this mark appeared, the thunder in the sky came to an abrupt end, and it seemed like there was a will that surpassed the thunder, making these thunders retreat.
It seems that this will is the king of the thunder of heaven and earth, can order endless thunder, let them back, must be back even that interlaced lightning, also under this finger all extinguished like, all dissipated.
Even the wind, but also in this finger in the collapse, roll backward to avoid, to meet the sky, together with the roll of the rain, these rain in this moment, crazy backward, if the rain has a spirit, then the rain spirit is shocked at the moment, almost in the twinkling of an eye, this rain completely stopped.
Stopped, not only is this county on the rain, but also in that a stream of thunder such as the will of the king of a finger, the entire country of Zhao’s cloudy rain, in this instant all stopped, thunder collapse, lightning disintegration, dark clouds dissipate, wind and rain rolled back.
Within the country of Zhao, the many Heng Yue Sect cultivators who were flying in the rainy sky, Wang Zhuo, Xu Fei, Zhou Rui and the others, at this moment, their hearts and minds were all shaken, and their complexions revealed horror. There was an old man before them, and this old man turned back violently, his eyes revealing endless shock.
“This aura …… Tian ah, what kind of cultivation is this!!!”
Zhao’s sky, another direction, at the same time as that dark cloud collapsed, two long rainbows dissipated sharply, revealing a man and a woman within it, the woman, was none other than Liu Mei, her face was pale, looking back, her eyes revealed confusion. The man beside her, on the other hand, his complexion changed greatly, almost exclaimed in shock.
Also still within the territory of Zhao, the city of the Fuji Family, its old ancestor, the YuanYing Old Monster, Fuji HuaYuan, he was meditating, and at this moment, his eyes snapped open, revealing panic, and a sensation that made his heart skip a beat permeated within his body.
Hengyue mountain top, an old man wearing a yellow robe, looking at the sky, frowning right hand pinch calculation, he, it is the yellow dragon real person, but at the moment, his expression is extremely serious, pinch calculation in its right hand violently trembled, blood from the nail slit inside the secretion of the urination, his eyes showed a strange color, seems to be a little unbelievable.
“This …… how is this possible!!!”
It is also at this moment, far away on the Vermilion Bird Star, within the Vermilion Bird, there is a powerful sect, this one sect is enough to sweep the fifth level of cultivation country, its mountain gate Yin souls filled, whistling like ghosts and gods wailing, rolling heaven and earth, from afar look like a huge streamer!
In the sky filled with endless Yin souls, there was a person sitting cross-legged, it was a middle-aged man, he, was Transported Sky’s senior brother.
“Can not count …… old man this life counted thirty seven times, each time did not succeed, could it be that my soul refining sect really has no hope ……”
