The next morning, Lin Yu was woken up by the sound of horse hooves. He looked out the window and saw that the horse carriage had stopped outside a lush valley. There were countless military tents surrounding the valley, and there seemed to be at least 5000 soldiers and horses!
"Sir Lin, come down with us!"
Eunuch Li straightened his clothes and carefully walked out of the carriage. Lin Yu followed behind him and heard Eunuch Li continue, "This valley was the place where the two immortals fought back then. His majesty ordered a complete lockdown on the news so that this matter wouldn't be leaked out."
"Oh? Block all news? "
Lin Yu paused for a moment, but at the same time, there were ripples in his heart. No wonder the army of the Great Chu had sent out their troops. It seems like to seal off this news, blood must have flowed like a river at that time!
If not for his father being the general of the Great Chu and the fact that both he and his son were under the emperor's watch, he would have been killed!
Lin Yu felt a chill on his back and looked calm on the surface. He followed Eunuch Li and walked into the valley. Along the way, they encountered dozens of soldiers holding a purple-gold token in their hands. Unhindered!
Not too long after, the two of them arrived at the heart of the valley.
"Sir Lin, we will continue onward. After passing the last checkpoint, we will arrive at the Immortal Trail. Our only option is to send you here. Without the royal decree, we will be punished with the death of nine clans!"
Eunuch Li said as he handed the purple gold token over to Lin Yu.
"Remember, anything that happens inside can only rot in your heart. You must never reveal it to anyone, or else our Great Chu will face the fate of destroying our country!"
"Yes!" "Thank you, Eunuch Li, for your advice!"
Lin Yu respectfully bowed towards Eunuch Li. He looked at the purple medal in his hand and continued to walk forward. Before long, he arrived at the last checkpoint.
The dozens of soldiers looked at Lin Yu with a murderous look. Their sharp eyes were like knives cutting his heart. Lin Yu handed his purple gold token to the general, and after the soldiers received the order, they all spread out.
Lin Yu nodded to the soldiers and continued to walk deeper. After approximately half an incense's time, he stopped at a steep cliff and looked down. Lin Yu took a deep breath. On the ground, there were messy handprints that were dozens of feet wide!
Bang!
Bang!
"Palm imprint!"
Lin Yu was shocked. He looked into the distance and saw a towering mountain with deep crevices crisscrossing on the surface, running through the entire mountain!
"Could that be …" "A massive axe and blade seal!"
Two immortals suddenly appeared in Lin Yu's heart. One of them held a long saber while the other was bare-handed. The battle between the two had caused the sky and earth to darken; the sun and moon to lose their luster!
Lin Yu stood where he was, looking at the countless huge scars crisscrossing the surface of the mountain. After an unknown amount of time, a familiar feeling rose in his heart, as if he had known this person before!
Lin Yu looked at the crisscrossing scars on the mountains. Memories gradually welled up in his mind.
"Hui'er, mother will teach you how to read today!" This kind of writing is called Chinese characters, and it's different from the words you usually study, you must keep it in your heart! "
"Hui'er, today Mother will tell you the story of the struggle between Chu and Han!"
"Did you know that mother really misses home? It's her real home, but she can't go back. Sigh …"
The scenes from the past flashed through Lin Yu's mind like a movie. Since he could remember, his mother had always taught him a lot of things he had never heard before, and she never told him to reveal them. Now, the crisscrossing lines on the surface of the mountains were the same Chinese characters that his mother had taught him!
Lin Yu stared at the patterns. Even if it was him, he would have to spend a lot of effort to identify it. His mother once told him that in this world, only the mother and son could understand Chinese!
The surface of these mountains must be the message his mother left him!
Lin Yu calmed down and sat on the ground. He focused his attention on the complex patterns on the surface of the mountain as he wrote on his palm.
On the other side, in the royal study of the Great Chu Country's royal palace.
"Reporting to your majesty, after Lin Yu entered the Immortal Trail, he sat on the ground at the very top of the mountain and stared at the knife marks on the mountain. His finger was constantly making gestures in his palm."
A man in black knelt on one knee and reported Lin Yu's actions in detail to the middle-aged man in the dragon robe standing in front of him. This man was the Emperor of the Great Chu, Xiong Zheng!
"En, you can leave now, pay close attention to Lin Yu's every move!"
He turned around and looked at the painting hanging behind him. In the painting, there was a continuous rise and fall of the mountains, but on the mountain, there were complex patterns.
"Blade scar?"
Xiong Zheng looked at the mountains in the painting with a profound gaze and frowned.
This painting scroll was painted by the number one painter of Great Chu. It was based on the scene depicted in the immortal scripture, the flowers, plants, trees, and trees were vividly painted in it. Xiong Zheng consulted it day after day, but after a few years, he had yet to reap any benefits from it.
After about half a day, Lin Yu slowly stood up. He looked at the mountains in the distance with excitement in his eyes.
