Chapter 2 Ancestral Stone

"Brother, are you finally awake?"

Lin Dong woke up slowly, and there was a delicate little person lying in front of him. Lin Dong reached out and touched the girl's head. Looking at her slightly red and swollen eyes, he sighed and said, "Qingtan, do you know about father's affairs?"

"Qingtan already knows. Father is seriously injured."

The girl named Qingtan pursed her lips, and crystal tears filled her eyes again. It was obvious that the girl had just cried once.

"How long have I been unconscious?"

Seeing that the girl was about to start crying again, Lin Dong quickly changed the subject.

"Two hours. By the way, father has woken up, and he wants to see you."

Qingtan quickly wiped the tears from her eyes and helped Lin Dong, who was sitting up.

"Father has woken up? Come on, let's go see him."

Lin Dong immediately got off the bed after hearing this, and quickly rushed to the master bedroom with Qingtan.

As the third master of the Lin family, the second Tianyuan strongman in the Lin family besides the head of the family, Lin Zhentian, Lin Xiao has a large courtyard in the inner area of ​​the Lin family. Lin Dong followed the familiar yet unfamiliar path in his memory and pushed open his parents' room.

"Father, are you looking for me?"

Lin Dong looked at the heroic young man leaning on the couch with mixed emotions.

"Dong'er, Qingtan, come here, your father has something to announce to you two." Lin Xiao, with a slightly pale face, ignored his wife's dissuasion, struggled to get down to the ground, looked at the two children in front of him, and smiled bitterly:

"I have become a half-useless person now, and I have failed my father and the family's expectations of me. I am no longer qualified to enjoy everything the family has given me. I plan to move out of the inner area and live in the most remote hill deep in the Lin family."

"Father, are you moving now? It's already night now, how about tomorrow?" Qingtan glanced at the darkness that had fallen outside the window, and obviously did not understand his father's decision.

"Yes, let's move now. We'll move overnight."

Lin Xiao, who was a little thin, couldn't help shaking his body, and then he gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice.

"Qingtan, stop talking, come, let's help father."

Lin Dong pulled Qingtan, who was about to say something. Lin Xiao, who had just suffered a major blow, was in a state of despair and disgust. Everything needed time to heal, and now was obviously not the time to talk more.

"Move, move, while not many people can see at night, hehe..."

Lin Xiao smiled sadly, and then he and his wife and children got busy.

Half an hour later, the four people of the Lin family, carrying a small amount of valuables, quietly left the inner area of ​​the Lin family under the cover of night and headed for the most remote hill deep in the Lin family.

A member of the Lin family also delivered the news to the main house of the Lin family. After hearing this, Lin Zhentian was silent for a moment, and then said in a deep voice: "Forget it, let him be. The third brother still doesn't see through it. I have never blamed him. He can only get out of this matter by himself. I, as a father, can't help him."

"Yes, head of the family!"

The Lin family member who reported the news responded and retreated.

......

Lin Xiao's family of four finally settled down on this remote hill. Since they lived in an old house that had been abandoned for several years, they still needed to clean it up.

The next day, Liu Yan, Lin Dong, and Qingtan got up early to clean the old house, and then Lin Xiao sat in a daze in a room that had been cleaned up the night before.

Looking at Lin Xiao's decadent appearance, Lin Dong's heart moved. Maybe he should act earlier. His father couldn't just stay depressed like this.

"Mother, Qingtan, I'll be away for a while and will be back soon."

Lin Dong, who had made up his mind, dropped the broom in his hand and ran away, leaving Qingtan shouting: "Brother, where are you going..."

Behind the cliff, in the back mountain, there is a hidden cave.

Lin Dong followed the path in his memory and entered the cave hidden under several huge rocks with ease. This cave was discovered by him and Qingtan when they were playing in their childhood.

That's right, Lin Dong was going to take away the mysterious stone talisman on the top of the cave. No, to be precise, it was the second-ranked divine object on the ancient divine object list, the supreme divine object made by the ancient first powerful Fuzu, the Zushi.

Lin Dong jumped into the cave and suddenly felt a burst of coolness. In the wide cave, there was only a stone pool about two or three feet in size, and the water in the pool was clear.

"There is a ancestral stone spirit liquid accumulated over the years in the stone pool, which can barely be considered a treasure. You have to come here often when you start practicing in the future. As for the ancestral stone, it should be right above the stone pool."

Lin Dong wandered around the stone pool for a while, and cast his eyes directly above. It happened that a drop of bright red liquid slid down from the top of the cave and fell into the stone pool, rippling ripples.

"Hey, baby, I found you..."

Lin Dong couldn't help but show a satisfied smile and walked towards a climbable mountain wall.

Ten minutes later.

"Is this the ancestral stone ranked second on the ancient divine object list?"

Lin Dong played with a pigeon egg-sized gray-white stone in his hand. The stone was covered with dense and mysterious runes. It felt soft to the touch. The material was neither stone nor jade, and it was very simple and majestic.

And a groove in the stone was filled with red liquid, emitting rich energy fluctuations. Obviously, the red light spot that fell into the stone pool before came from here.

"Ancestor Stone Spiritual Liquid, I'm looking for you. No, I can't call you the Ancestor Stone now, I should call you the Stone Talisman."

Lin Dong stroked the Ancestor Stone for a while, reluctantly put it in his arms carefully, and went straight down the mountain.

When Lin Dong returned home, most of the ancient house had been cleaned up. His mother Liu Yan was boiling medicine, which was a first-grade spiritual medicine. She was going to use it to heal her husband.

Although Lin Xiao himself had given up treatment and completely abandoned himself, Liu Yan firmly believed that her brother Xiao would definitely get better.

"Mother, let me do it, I'll bring it to father."

Lin Dong stepped forward quickly and picked up the celadon bowl filled with liquid medicine.

"You, go quickly and coax your father, he still refuses to take the medicine."

Liu Yan smiled and reached out to wipe the sweat off Lin Dong's head, patted her son's shoulder, and signaled him to go in quickly.

"Got it, mother."

Lin Dong, who had already turned around, added something to the bowl without leaving a trace, and a touch of red slowly rippled in the light blue medicine.

"Father, you should take the medicine."

In the simple and tidy room, a heroic man sat stupidly, not knowing what he was thinking. Lin Dong silently handed over the celadon bowl.

"It's useless. I'm already a half-useless person. It's a waste to give it to me..."

Lin Xiao, who came back to his senses, wanted to refuse, but when he looked up, he saw his son Lin Dong's eager eyes, and his wife and daughter who were hugging each other at the door and staring at him.

With a long sigh, Lin Xiao finally chose to take the celadon bowl, and then drank the medicine in the bowl in one gulp.

Under Lin Dong's pretendingly calm gaze, Lin Xiao's slightly thin figure suddenly trembled, his face turned red at a speed visible to the naked eye, and his body temperature was rising rapidly!
