I said I'd go back in time

Chapter 87 The Land of Hermitage
Early the next morning, the puppet girl sat up slowly and found that Lin Xing and Jing Shiyu were still soundly asleep.

Bai Yiyi thought to herself: "Why do these two people sleep so late? Didn't they agree to get up early today?"

After waiting for a long time and finally waiting for the two to get up, Bai Yiyi immediately noticed something was wrong again.

She found that the relationship between Lin Xing and Jing Shiyu seemed closer than yesterday.

"Huh?" Bai Yiyi thought to herself, "Could it be that they did something secretly while I was asleep yesterday?"

"Did Jing Shiyu secretly give Lin Xing lessons, teach him skills, and want to practice master-apprentice?"

Thinking of this, Bai Yiyi felt that her position as master was more and more in jeopardy, but there was nothing she could do about Jing Shiyu who was staring at her like a tiger.

"Hateful, I am proficient in hundreds of martial arts, but Lin Xing is the master of Daoist martial arts, so that my ancestors can't perform even if I have the ability..."

"For the current plan, we still need to master the puppet as soon as possible to obtain more powerful power, so that my fate can be controlled by me."

All kinds of thoughts in Bai Yiyi's mind would naturally not be perceived by Lin Xing and Jing Shiyu.

The two rode side by side and continued on their way to their destination. Along the way, Jing Shiyu was like a teacher, answering Lin Xing's various questions and helping him understand the general trend of the world today, the various factions in the world...

"Oh? You also know about the second inheritance and the third inheritance?"

"Shilin Temple does have a third lineage known as the 'Guru'. It is said that Kong'e, a generation of divine monks 30 years ago, has mastered this lineage."

"However, the legend is just a legend. The divine monk Kong'e has not left the Shilin Temple for many years. Whether he has mastered the third inheritance, or even whether he is alive or dead, is already a mystery in the world."

Bai Yiyi, who was eavesdropping on the side, nodded secretly: "So that's how it is."

……

Two days passed in a hurry.

Lin Xing and Jing Shiyu came to a valley.

Looking at the valley filled with white mist, Jing Shiyu said: "This is the place. The expert I mentioned lives in seclusion in this valley."

Looking at the vast expanse of whiteness, Lin Xing said: "The fog is so thick, how do we get in?"

Jing Shiyu said: "Have you forgotten the spiritual vision I taught you before? As long as you use my Taoist detection skills, these thick fogs are nothing."

"However, you haven't learned spiritual vision yet, and you don't have the eyes of the sky and the eyes of the law. This time, I will take you in."

Then I saw Lin Xing and Jing Shiyu tying the horse aside.

"Grab my hand." Jing Shiyu stretched out his hand, grabbed Lin Xing and walked forward.

Lin Xing turned to look at the puppet girl: "Grab my hand tightly."

The puppet girl raised her hand stiffly, followed Lin Xing in, and firmly grasped the cat doll with her other hand.

Lin Xing felt waves of spiritual thoughts pouring out of Jing Shiyu's body non-stop. Her eyes glowed with green light, as if she could see through thick fog, leading them around in the valley .

After about half an hour, the fog in front of them gradually dissipated, and an idyllic village with bright sunshine and green mountains and green waters appeared in front of their eyes.

Lin Xing asked in surprise, "There is a village here?"

Jing Shiyu nodded and said: "Originally, in order to live in seclusion without being disturbed, this expert not only found such a remote valley, but also set up a maze outside, so that he can escape the troubled times and live a little more comfortable here alone. Happy days."

"It's a pity that this person has been accustomed to fine clothes and fine food since he was a child. After staying in this valley for a few days, he found that he couldn't survive."

"So he rescued a group of refugees and took them to farm and weave in the valley. From then on, he didn't have to do the daily work by himself. All the dirty work was handed over to the villagers, so that they could I also live a happy life here with my mouth open..."

As a group of three people stepped into the village, the refugees were very nervous and scared when they saw the sudden appearance of the three people at first.

But after they saw Jing Shiyu, they all relaxed again, and even took the initiative to say hello to Jing Shiyu.

Lin Xing asked curiously, "They all know you?"

Jing Shiyu nodded and said: "I also helped this expert back then, and rescued these refugees together with him, so they know me."

The three of them advanced all the way and came to a compound at the back of the village.

From a long distance away, Lin Xing saw a middle-aged man lying on the roof, basking in the sun and sleeping soundly. The sound of gurgling from inside his body rang out like thunder, shaking the surrounding people. The tiles also shake slightly.

"Senior, long time no see."

As Jing Shiyu's voice came out, the middle-aged man who was still sleeping immediately opened his eyes, and fell from the roof in a flash.

Then he saw his feet stepping on strange footwork, bringing a series of afterimages, and walking in front of Jing Shiyu gracefully.

At this time, Lin Xing really saw the other person's appearance clearly. It was a man with a slender figure, gray temples, and star-like eyes.

If you use Lin Xing's own words to sum it up, he is a middle-aged handsome man.

Even though he looks unkempt, his every move exudes a unique charm.

"Shiyu, why did you come to see me?"

The middle-aged man looked at Jing Shiyu with a smile, and his tone revealed kindness.

Immediately afterwards, he glanced at Lin Xing again, frowned and said, "Who is this kid?"

Jing Shiyu said: "He is my apprentice."

"Oh, apprentice." The middle-aged man laughed, looked at Lin Xing with kindness, held Lin Xing's arm and began to ask for warmth.

Lin Xing was a little confused about the relationship between the other party and Jing Shiyu, looked at Jing Shiyu suspiciously and asked, "Who is he?"

The middle-aged man said kindly, "I am Shiyu's father, you can just call me uncle."

Jing Shiyu said helplessly: "When I met this man, he was seriously injured. After I rescued him, he insisted that I was his daughter."

The middle-aged man on the side didn't respond to this, as if he couldn't hear what Jing Shiyu said.

Jing Shiyu shook his head and said, "He's out of his mind, every time someone tells me that I'm not his daughter, he can't hear it."

The middle-aged man looked at the puppet girl again and asked, "Then who is this?"

Lin Xing said, "This is my friend."

After saying hello, the middle-aged man dragged Jing Shiyu and Lin Xing into the courtyard, laughed loudly and said, "Daughter-in-law! Come see who's back!"

"Shishu, your sister is back."

"Shiyu, look at your brother, has he grown a lot taller than the last time you came back?"

"Come, come, let's have dinner together and let your mother cook some dishes for you."

"Look, daughter-in-law, this is Shiyu's new apprentice, isn't he a good-looking talent?"

The middle-aged man patted Lin Xing on the shoulder and said, "Haha, they are suffocating in the village every day, and they don't like talking very much these days, don't be surprised."

Lin Xing looked at several empty chairs, and looked at Jing Shiyu suspiciously.

Jing Shiyu shrugged helplessly: "I said he was sick, and he would fantasize about his family."

The middle-aged man's complexion changed, and he said unhappily: "Shiyu, why are you saying such things again? Is it okay for your mother and brother to sit here? Why are you pretending not to see?"
