A mysterious middle-aged man
With the help of the Indigo Soul Dark Pill, Lin Ling had finally stepped into the four-star Martial Spirit Realm!
"《Flame Arts》!"
Lin Ling took out the stone book to see if he could open a new page. Then, he poured his spiritual energy into it and tried his best to open a new page.
However, although the stone book looked small, it hid a mysterious power. Even though Lin Ling had reached the Four-Star Martial Spirit Realm, he still could not open a new page. This made Lin Ling somewhat disappointed.
"There are seven realms in the Martial Spirit Realm. For the Big Dipper Seven Stars, perhaps only when I reach six or seven stars will I be able to open the Blazing Flame Arts!" Lin Ling shook his head.
The 《Blazing Flame Arts》 was extremely powerful, and on the new page, there would definitely be a new flame Nirvana technique. Unfortunately, from the looks of it, Lin Ling's strength was still not up to par.
After tidying up his clothes, Lin Ling left the hut.
"Brother Ling, you're done with your cultivation!"
Seeing Lin Ling walk out, Youyou hurriedly trotted over. She had been feeding the fish in the pond. She was so busy that her little nose was full of sweat.
Lin Ling smiled and wiped the sweat off Youyou's face. "Youyou, you don't like to cultivate. Otherwise, it would be more convenient for you to take care of the courtyard."
"Cultivation will make people ugly!" Youyou pouted.
"Who said that? Look at Lin Ling. The more she cultivates, the more beautiful she becomes. You, don't always think of martial artists as muscular people. In fact, martial artists cultivate by borrowing the Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth to transform their bodies, making them more agile and otherworldly!" Lin Ling laughed.
"Oh, is that so? But I heard that cultivation can increase one's lifespan, right?" Youyou asked.
"Of course!"
"Then I have to cultivate too. Otherwise, when I'm old and Big Brother Ling is still very young, Big Brother Ling won't want me anymore!"
"You're thinking too much. Even if you're so old that all your teeth are gone, Brother Ling will still want you. You're my family!"
"Annoying, you're the one whose teeth have all fallen out!"
The two of them exchanged a few words, and then Youyou said, "Right, a big sister from the Immortal Assembling Tower came to see you last time. She said that there will be an auction at the Immortal Assembling Tower this month, and the Sea Rending Dragon Whale Soul that you want will be there!"
"Youmun Yun!"
Lin Ling's eyes lit up. That woman was really mysterious. She was very well-informed!
"Anyway, she is very beautiful. Moreover, when she talked about brother, she was full of admiration. I knew that brother was not an ordinary person. In the future, there will definitely be many girls who will like brother!" Youyou said meaningfully.
"Is there anything else in your little brain other than thinking about these things? I just play some songs for her occasionally, that's all! " Lin Ling flicked Youyou's smooth forehead with his finger. "Forget it, I'll take you with me to the auction!"
"Alright, I haven't been out for a long time too!"
Several days later, Lin Ling brought Youyou out of the Fire Ancient Clan and headed towards the Immortal Assembling Tower.
After not coming to the outer city for a few months, the outer city was still bustling with noise and excitement. Martial artists from the Heaven Mystics Kingdom were still lingering in this giant city.
Lin Ling was currently in the outer city and had a rising reputation. It was fortunate that not many people had seen him before. Hence, as they walked along the main street, they didn't attract any unnecessary trouble.
"Eh, this song is very nice to listen to!"
Right at this moment, a beautiful song came from the side of the street. There was a river by the side of the street, and there was a small ancient bridge over the river. The song came from the bridge.
Right now, there was a large number of people surrounding the small bridge.
"This song is just so-so!"
Lin Ling dug his ears and spoke honestly. To be honest, the people in this world had good taste and liked to listen to music. However, the melody of the song was very ordinary.
"I know that Big Brother Ling is multi-talented and doesn't put this song in your eyes. However, this young lady feels that it is not bad. Accompany me to take a look!" Youyou smiled gently and pulled Lin Ling's hand as they ran towards the small bridge.
Lin Ling shook his head helplessly but didn't object.
"This mister's zither skills are not bad. This song is something that I have never seen in my life!"
"Did you see that? That mister is blind!"
"This song is filled with deep emotions!"
On the small bridge, many people were discussing. At the side of the bridge, a refined middle-aged man was sitting indifferently. He ignored the surrounding voices and looked at Youyou's river while playing the zither.
This middle-aged man's eyes were closed, and he was indeed blind. However, he had a jade-like complexion and had an indescribable charm.
His song had a similar charm that made people yearn for it. It seemed to be pouring out his heart and reminiscing at the same time.
"This middle-aged man is blind."
Lin Ling's heart rippled. He remembered that when he first came to this world, he was also blind. Blind people couldn't see this world, couldn't see heaven and earth, but were more sensitive to heaven and earth and things.
"He keeps looking at the river. I wonder what he is looking at?" "Sigh."
Subconsciously, Lin Ling condensed his soul force and also looked at the river. At the same time, his eyes quietly changed and 'lost time' began to appear.
The reason why Lin Ling wanted to see what the middle-aged man was looking at was just a spur of the moment.
The river flowed quickly, and time seemed to flow along with the river.
The sun rose, the sun set, the song began, and the song ended. Scenes of the past accompanied the river.
"He seems to come every year at this time. He has already persisted for many years!" "Sigh."
Lin Ling's intuition told him that the middle-aged man had been persisting in doing one thing. Every year at this time, he would play the song on the bridge.
"Eh?" "Sigh."
Suddenly, Lin Ling's eyes focused. In his eyes, the scene changed.
On the bridge, a scholarly young man wearing a long gown and carrying a guzheng was looking at the emerald river with an innocent smile. At this moment, on the river of Youyou, a small boat was drifting with the current. On the boat stood a fifteen or sixteen year old girl. Her face was slightly round, and her appearance was very sweet. Her big eyes were pitch-black and bright, and the corner of her mouth was curved in a smile.
"Do you know how to play a song? Play a song for me! " The little girl's voice was as clear as a bell.
The young man on the bridge was surprised and somewhat shy. But his big eyes stared at the little girl, and he nodded. Then he sat down and played.
"I can play, but you have to tell me your name. I like you!" "Yes."
After sitting down, the young man seemed to have gathered his courage to say this sentence.
"Love at first sight? Little brother, my name is You Xiaoxiao. If your song is to my satisfaction, then I will marry you! " The little girl on the boat was clearly more bold and lively than the young man.
"A gentleman keeps his word. No, you are not a gentleman. You are a girl. Anyway, you have to keep your word!" The young man finally raised his head and said somewhat excitedly.
"Then hurry up and play!" "Okay!"
Time froze there, and the innocent boy and girl met for the first time just like that.
This kind of encounter did not have any psychological burden. It was like a pure youth love. Because of the words of their first encounter, the young man came every year to play a song, until he became a middle-aged man.
A moment later, the passing of time disappeared from Lin Ling's eyes. He finally understood why the middle-aged man had appeared here. Perhaps he had been waiting on the bridge all these years, wanting the young girl to marry him. Unfortunately, something had gone wrong along the way, causing the young girl to never appear again, causing the young man of the past to regret it to this day.
