The Ghost of Fog
Chapters 177. Congratulating
Lin Tian tried to move his finger, but all he felt was excruciating pain. Then he began to open his eyes.
The first thing he saw was a simple roof tile made of piles of dry grass. When his hands fumbled, it turned out that he was currently on the ground floor which was only a thin carpet.
This young man tried to get up to sit himself, but all he could do was pain in his chest and dizziness. Forced Lin Tian to re-break his body without being able to do anything about it.
"I'm still alive?"
"It was like a dream..."
He also noticed that his right eye was wrapped in a soft cloth. Understand that the wounds produced by Zhang Heng's last attack are still imprinting.
Lin Tian continued to lie down in that weak state for about an hour. Until one day, a shadowy figure appeared behind the curtains of the room. In one look, Lin Tian knew that the shadow was the shadow of the old man, clearly visible from the thinness of the two hands of that person.
The shadow figure seemed to be twitching, from where Lin Tian was at the moment, he was able to hear voices like someone who was pounding medicine. Realizing this he suspected that it was this person who had helped him.
Whistling, the shadow figure grovelledly continued pounding the medicines. Until a while later, he stopped his work and opened the curtain of the place where Lin Tian was.
"Oh, are you awake? Thank goodness..."
The grandfather approached Lin Tian and sat down beside him. Then hand over the medicinal liquid that is in the coconut shell container.
"Drink this so you can recover quickly."
With great difficulty, Lin Tian raised his head and started taking the medicine slowly. It was excruciating indeed because the medicine felt unusually bitter and Lin Tian was not strong to drink quickly. So he was forced to take the bitter medicine by sipping slowly.
"Grandfather, did you help me?" asked Lin Tian after finishing his drink.
"Hm, you think?"
"I think you are the one who helped me. Because why would you take care of me if you didn't mean to help?"
The grandfather nodded his head with a smile. Sometimes he also rubbed his long beard.
"Right, your guess is right. I was the one who helped you when you got stuck in a tree trunk by the river. Good thing I came in time, otherwise you might be dead" he replied.
"Oh, yes. Here's your sword, I used it to cut some useful firewood to fill my legs. Hehe, to warm the body at night. Your sword is pretty good, sharp." the old man said as he thrust out the Snow Goddess Sword.
Hearing all of the strange grandfather's words, Lin Tian's heart felt pain. The sword that had been his mainstay weapon turned out to be used to cut firewood. Really lucky.
"A-ah.thank you.." said Lin Tian who felt hesitant to convey his dissatisfaction because the sword had been used to cut firewood.
"Hoh.pulling." said the grandfather inwardly. There were feelings of joy towards Lin Tian.
Originally, he had thought that Lin Tian would be angry for having known that his sword he used to cut firewood. He thought that the young man was still too young and warm-blooded so it was difficult to control emotions. But Lin Tian's reaction was far beyond his expectations.
"Young man, where do you want to go after this?" the grandfather asked.
Hearing this question, Lin Tian instantly became moody. He was also confused about where to go after this. At first he thought of just returning to Zhang's residence, but there was one thing that stuck in his heart. I don't know what it is.
"Oh you want to know? Then answer my question!"
Lin Tian was slightly startled and returned moody, "I don't know. Don't know where to go after this."
While stroking his beard, the grandfather replied, "Hm, aren't you a warrior nicknamed the Master of Fog Ghosts? Miss Zhang's personal bodyguard? Why not just go back to your residence?"
This matter had managed to shock Lin Tian. It turned out that he had known his identity, and instantly Lin Tian regarded this matter as a danger. Then in a cold tone he replied.
"Why do you know?"
The strange grandfather who was familiar with Lin Tian's suspicions hurriedly replied, "Haha, you think I don't know about your fight with the white mask on the cliff? After you fell and your masks were both destroyed, you still continued the fight in the river right?"
"Well, who the hell are you!?" Lin Tian was getting more alert.
The grandfather raised his right index finger, pointing it towards the candle flame that was in the corner of the room. In the next instant, the previously twitching candle flame instantly became silent. And then slowly it started to grow.
"I can also talk a little bit about martial arts."
Even though it was said that way, but Lin Tian knew that this grandfather was actually a saint, it could even be more powerful than Zhang Hongli.
The inner power play that grandfather had just shown was not simple and Lin Tian had absolutely no idea how. All he knew for sure was, this person was indeed a powerful person.
Then as fast as lightning he clasped his hands to the front of his chest. Even though he was still lying down, he tried to duck to the side saluting.
"I'm sorry for my blind eyes for not being aware of senior ability."
"Hahaha.this ability alone is not appropriate for you to call me senior. Just call me Chong San's grandfather, if you want, be my disciple for one and two months. Then you'll be easy to do just now."
"Murid salutes the teacher..."
"Hahaha good. But what about the Zhang family?"
"If I stay only a few months, the Zhang family will be fine."
"Alright, rest up to a week and your wounds will recover. After that we'll start practicing."
And so it was, since a week later, Lin Tian started living a new life as Chong San's grandfather's disciple. The first lesson Lin Tian received was to find and cut wood. But not just cutting and searching.
"You have to remember this and I'm sure you're an honest man. Use your sword to cut the wood. But on condition, the first wood you cut, the second wood you cut, the third wood you prick and then split, the fourth wood you puncture and cut. And so on until you get a hundred sticks. It should be finished before noon!!" chong San's orders to his students. Lin Tian without much further ado, immediately darted away and carried out his teacher's orders.
Inwardly he silently thought, is he currently being played with his teacher? But all that he did was go all the way to focus on this mission. In addition, he also wanted to become even stronger until he was able to defeat Zhang Heng decisively. If you need to make Sian Yang keok.
