Chapter 116 Tie Her Up
"She's lying!" Lin Zhen shouted fiercely, "Before the strange phenomenon appeared yesterday, I clearly saw her dragging Lin Zhi home! Lin Zhi didn't even go to the academy!"
"Yes..." A young woman in the crowd also whispered in agreement: "I was with Ah Zhen at the time, and I saw it too."
Do not……
not like this……
The child must not be discovered by them!
"He went to the private school yesterday! I sent him there personally." Cheng Shuyan suddenly became excited.
She glared at Lin Zhen fiercely, her eyes seemed to be filled with poison, as if she would rush up and tear Lin Zhen to pieces in the next moment.
Lin Zhen was frightened by her gaze and stammered, "You, you think we don't know? You're just relying on the fact that you were once a rich girl and had studied for a few years, so you look down on us..."
"Okay! We are not gathered here today to listen to you quarreling!" The village chief became impatient and shouted at Lin Zhen to stop.
"Lin Liu, even if what you said is true, where is Lin Zhi now? As a descendant of the Lin family, why didn't he come today?"
"He, he's still in the academy..."
No, the child is not in the school.
Cheng Shuyan suddenly remembered that she had taken Zhier to the back mountain and asked Zhier to wait for her.
A faint heat came from her wrist, and her expression became confused again, as if she had forgotten something.
Before she could remember, she was interrupted by Lin Shao's voice.
"Mrs. Zhang, even though you're an outsider, you must have known for so many years that if we leave Linjia Village, our children won't be able to survive!
Even if you hide him, how long can you hide him? He will come back eventually."
The threat in Lin Shao's tone was self-evident. Cheng Shuyan's heart tightened and he quickly retorted:
"No, my husband said that as long as we have the Yin Gathering Stone, our child can leave Lin Village!"
A stone stirred up a thousand waves.
Everyone was angry at her words and started to denounce her.
"Yin Gathering Stone? That's what you're thinking!"
"That's the lifeblood of the Lin family. How dare you covet it?"
"Village Chief, kidnap her! With her around, that brat Lin Zhi will definitely come back!"
"Yes, tie her up!"
"Kidnap her..."
……
Cheng Shuyan was locked up in the dungeon behind the ancestral hall for three whole days. During these three days, apart from the water brought to her by Sister Li, there was nothing else.
She was tied to a frame made of fine iron, her hands were fixed and her body was tied tightly. She was extremely weak at this time.
Lin Zhi did not show up.
Lin Shao and the village chief waited for three days and lost their patience to wait any longer.
They had finally waited for the vision their ancestors had spoken of, so naturally they couldn't wait any longer.
The Lin family has been trapped by their bloodline for too long.
Lin Shao and several other members of the Lin family gathered at the village chief's house, all with anxious looks on their faces.
The atmosphere was somewhat silent, and an impatient man couldn't help but break the silence: "Village Chief, could we be mistaken? Could it be that Lin Zhi isn't the person our ancestors predicted?"
The village chief was silent for a moment, then said firmly, "He's the only one left. That day in the ancestral hall, the other tribesmen used the Yin Gathering Stone to test him, but there was no reaction. Only Lin Zhi remained untested."
"It's all my fault for being careless! I didn't expect Zhang Yining to know the clan's secret and hide Lin Zhi early in the morning!" Lin Shao said in annoyance.
"Now is not the time to pursue these things. The most important thing is to think about how to find Lin Zhi."
……
Another three days passed, and just when Cheng Shuyan was losing consciousness, the burning sensation on her wrist finally brought her back to consciousness.
The name "Cheng Shuyan" appeared in her mind again.
She immersed her consciousness into the state of deceiving the heavens, and her memory gradually recovered.
Thinking about what she had experienced in the past few days, she realized that she might have been under an illusion.
Her cultivation has not recovered yet, so she can only be trapped here, forced to experience everything that Zhang Yining once experienced.
It was a coincidence that her identity in this illusion was actually Lin Zhi's mother.
If nothing unexpected happens, everything that is happening now is exactly what Lin Zhi’s mother once experienced.
She did not abandon Lin Zhi. She used her own life to ensure that Lin Zhi could live.
Now that Cheng Shuyan has recovered her memory, she has no idea what happened next.
The village chief came to the dungeon to look for her several times, asking her to tell him Lin Zhi's whereabouts, but she naturally refused.
Until Lin Shao appeared.
"Yining, as long as you tell me Lin Zhi's whereabouts, I will take you away from Linjia Village. From now on, we can live together in the vast world. Isn't that good?
Lin Liu lied to you, so why did you risk your life to protect his son? Only when Lin Zhi returns to perform the ritual can the Lin family be freed from the blood curse, and I can take you away!
There was heartache in his eyes and his tone was very gentle and charming. Cheng Shuyan had lost his memory of Zhang Yining and didn't quite understand what he said.
But from what he said, there seemed to be some unclear relationship between him and Zhang Yining, which could be used to good advantage.
She raised her head with difficulty, tears welling up in her eyes, but her expression was very stubborn.
"He lied to me, but haven't you ever lied to me before? Zhier... after all, he is my flesh and blood!"
"Yining, when have I ever lied to you? Lin Zhi is doomed to die, but we will have our own children in the future, and many, many more. Don't lose the big picture for the small."
Lin Shao's tone became hurried, and he seemed very excited about her response.
"That's a sacrificial formation... Although I'm not from your Lin Village and don't understand these things, I do know that Zhi'er..."
She looked heartbroken and sobbed softly with her head down. Lin Shao immediately said anxiously, "Yes, his soul will be scattered after the sacrifice, but you really don't need to worry so much about Lin Liu's child. We will have children in the future!"
Soul fly away!
Even if you are not a cultivator, you can understand the meaning of these four words.
No wonder Zhang Yining wanted to hide Lin Zhi.
Such an end should not befall a child of a few years old. It is too cruel for Lin Zhi.
Although she didn't know the whole picture, she could still make a rough guess.
There might be some kind of restriction in the Lin family bloodline that prevents them from practicing. This can be inferred from what the village chief said in the ancestral hall that day.
They may need a special opportunity to lift this restriction and gain the ability to practice, and the holy river mentioned by the village chief is this opportunity.
And Lin Zhi is a key, the key to open the "door" of the Holy River.
They need to use the Lin Zhi sacrificial formation to remove the blood restriction through the Holy River.
Zhang Yining didn't know where she got the news from, perhaps from her husband who died early.
So on the day when the Holy River appeared, she noticed something was wrong with Lin Zhi and took him to the back mountain and hid him there early.
In order to find the so-called Yin Gathering Stone for Lin Zhi, she returned to the village.
