Chapter 324 The scriptures are still there
Lin Zhong showed a hint of pride on his face: "Young Master, now, except for you, the rest of the Lin family are not qualified to occupy the Xixin Peak!"
Soon, Lin Xun realized that this was a special care from the imperial royal family.
Hundreds of years ago, Lin Daochen, a powerful man in the life and death realm of the Lin family, fought for the empire. Although he eventually died, he helped the empire successfully resolve a terrible disaster.
So, the imperial royal family personally came forward to issue the emperor's will to grant the right to the direct descendants of Lin Daochen's lineage!
Lin Xun's grandfather Lin Feiting is Lin Daochen's eldest son, and his father Lin Wenjing is Lin Daochen's eldest grandson.
In terms of seniority, Lin Xun is Lin Daochen's great-grandson!
In the bloody incident more than ten years ago, almost all the descendants of Lin Daochen's lineage were killed, so according to the will of that year, Lin Xun became the only candidate qualified to have Xixinfeng.
As for other members of the Lin family, because they did not have such qualifications, after the bloody incident that year, even if they were unwilling to do so, they had to move out of the Xixin Peak.
According to common sense, almost all the direct descendants of Lin Daochen's lineage have died. Even Lin Xun, a baby who is still in cradle, is considered impossible to survive. This Xixin Peak should be taken away.
This is strangely the imperial royal family did not make this decision, which allowed Xi Xinfeng to continue to this day and never taken away.
"Did they know back then that I was not dead?"
Lin Xun said in surprise.
Lin Zhong has been guarding Xi Xinfeng for many years, and he was extremely puzzled. Seeing Lin Xun asking, he couldn't help but ponder: "It's really possible. Over the years, I often worry that one day, Xi Xinfeng will be taken away. But at least, you are back today, and this has never happened. Inferred in this way, the imperial royal family seems to have expected that one day you will return."
Lin Xun suddenly remembered the big man deep in the palace. Could it be him?
Soon, Lin Xun shook his head.
This question is not important at the moment. What is important is that Xixin Peak still belongs to the Lin clan, which is enough.
"Brother Zhong, I want to ask you something."
Lin Xun's expression became solemn.
Lin Zhong immediately sat upright and said, "Young master, it's okay to speak. I must know everything and say everything!"
Lin Xun leaned forward slightly, his black eyes were deep, and he stared at Lin Zhong: "If I want to restore the Lin clan, where do you think you should start?"
Lin Zhong was shocked, his expression seemed a little excited, but he quickly calmed down and said bitterly: "Young Master, now there are only you and me on this Xixin Peak. It is almost impossible to do this..."
He knew better than Lin Xun about the current situation of the Lin clan. Even though Lin Xun was the only descendant qualified to inherit Xixin Peak, he was too young, only in his teens, and alone, how could he restore the Lin family?
What's more, the other four other tribes of the Lin family will definitely not be willing to surrender!
On the contrary, Lin Zhong was even sure that when those people from the side tribes learned that Lin Xun had returned and wanted to take over the power of Xixin Peak and sit on the throne of the clan leader, they would definitely not give up!
He knew the people of the side tribes too well. After the bloody incident that year, they all did not hesitate to have an affair with foreign enemies in order to compete for power, which completely caused the Lin family to fall into internal strife, and the power and industries they originally had were divided up!
How could a tribe like this be able to see Lin Xun alone in the hand of the Huixin Peak?
What's more, the many wealthy forces that divided the Lin family's industries back then would probably not watch Lin Xun grow bigger.
Internal worries!
foreign aggression!
In addition, Lin Xun was young and alone, and extremely weak. It would be harder to command the entire Lin family than to reach the sky!
In an instant, Lin Xun knew that Lin Zhong was not attacking him, but thought that he did not have the ability to take charge of the Lin family.
This made Lin Xun frown and ponder.
He himself also knew that he was short of people, money, and lacked enough capital to stand alone. It was indeed difficult to restore the Lin family.
But since he is back, how could he remain indifferent?
Don’t be afraid of difficulties, just be afraid of admitting your own conscience!
Now that the Lin family is in decline, the situation is dangerous, and the situation is unbearable, as long as you do it step by step, you will eventually have hope of turning the world and rising again!
If you don't do it, it's better to get out of the Forbidden City immediately!
Of course, according to Lin Xun's personality, he naturally would not give in.
"Uncle Zhong, whether you believe it or not, tell me first what to do. If you do it, you may lose, but if you don't, I will regret it for the rest of my life!"
Lin Xun's eyes were firm.
Lin Zhong's expression changed, and after a long time of gritting his teeth, he said, "Forget it, I've lived a life of surviving for more than ten years, and life is worse than death. If I hadn't been unable to bear the Xixin Peak left by the clan elder, the old slave would have already died. Since you want to fight for it, then the old slave will give up this old bone and fight with you once!"
The sound is sonorous.
Lin Xun immediately smiled slightly, patted Lin Zhong on the shoulder, and said, "Don't worry, Uncle Zhong, although I am alone, I have not encountered any problems that I cannot solve until now!"
"Young Master, you must first settle the country when fighting foreign countries. The first thing you need to do now is to fully understand the current situation of our Lin family."
"Only by first solving internal troubles can we gather the strength of the clan and fight against foreign enemies!"
This is Lin Zhong’s suggestion.
Lin Xun thought for a moment and couldn't help but nod his head secretly, saying that this was true.
It is true that he had just entered the Forbidden City and encountered a lot of problems, but the real problem was to solve the internal problems of the clan first!
As long as he is solved, it is equivalent to stabilizing the foundation and standing firm. If the foundation is unstable and wants to avenge his parents and relatives, it is simply a delusion.
In order to further understand the current situation of the Lin family, Lin Zhong took Lin Xun away from the Xixin Palace.
...
...
Xixin Peak, the back mountain.
Sutra Pavilion.
An ancient building with a height of seven stories, bathed in silver stars.
This is the place where the Lin family collects classics and is the core forbidden area of the clan. The seven-story building collects the practice techniques that the Lin family has inherited for thousands of years.
The Lin family back then was one of the top families with great power. You can imagine how amazing the practice scriptures it passed down were.
This Sutra Pavilion can also demonstrate the strength of a family.
However, when Lin Xun entered under the leadership of Lin Zhong, he found that rows of bookshelves were scattered all over the ground in the huge Sutra Pavilion, with spider webs and dust accumulated.
It was like being robbed by a group of robbers. Not to mention the practice scriptures, I couldn’t even find a piece of paper!
"Young Master, the Sutra Library is divided into seven floors. It was built by our ancestors of the Lin family with all their efforts. The classics stored here were as vast as a sea of smoke and full of magnificent."
Lin Zhong's voice was low and his expression was complicated to scan the empty hall covered with spider webs and dust.
"On this first level alone, there are more than 3,000 various practice books and more than 1,900 secret combat skills."
"But after the bloody incident that year, all these valuable classics... were taken away..."
Lin Zhong's voice was bitter, revealing an incomparable loneliness and sadness.
Lin Xun glanced around for a long time without saying anything, but just clenched his hands unconsciously.
As he said that, Lin Zhong led Lin Xun to the second floor of the Sutra Pavilion.
"Young Master, this second layer contains 1,600 practice books and more than 700 combat secret techniques."
On the second floor, rows of bookshelves also collapsed, dust spider webs could be seen everywhere, and there were traces of battle and blood stains in some places, making the ground messy.
"Go to the third floor."
Lin Xun stood silently for a long time, took a deep breath, and withdrew his gaze.
Next, Lin Zhong led Lin Xun up layer by layer, without exception, all empty and decayed.
Until he reached the highest level, Lin Zhong's expression had become extremely lonely and sad, and his emotions were fluctuating, as if he was about to collapse.
There are only a few rows of bookshelves here.
But this is a first-class forbidden area in the Sutra Library. At that time, non-core figures were not qualified to enter it!
"Young Master, what is hidden here is the most precious secret book of inheritance in our Lin family, with a total of seven pieces. In addition, there are fifty-four volumes of practice left by ancestors and sages! It records the true core inheritance!"
After saying this passage, Lin Zhong seemed to have lost all his strength and looked extremely sad.
Lin Xun stood there, and his heart was almost unable to resist the anger that was almost rushing out.
In a trance, he seemed to see a group of enemies who had been looting in this Sutra Pavilion with endless greed and ecstasy...
These are all classics collected by the Lin family’s ancestors for many years! They are the foundation of the Lin family’s foothold! But now, they are all looted!
Crack Crack Crack!
Lin Xun clenched his hands into fists, and the knuckles made a crisp sound as they used force, and the veins on the back of his hand burst out one by one.
However, Lin Xun himself seemed to be unaware of it. There seemed to be a whirlpool surging deep in his black eyes, burning with terrifying flames.
Until a long time, Lin Xun suddenly withdrew his gaze and strode down the Zangjin Pavilion.
He didn't dare to watch anymore. He was worried that he could not control his anger. A treasure trove of cultivation that the Lin family had worked hard to build for generations was completely destroyed because of the bloody incident that year!
Even if you are an outsider, you will feel deeply regretful when you see such a scene, let alone Lin Xun, a direct descendant of the Lin family?
"Brother Zhong, do you know who were the ones who snatched these classics back then?"
"Know."
"Okay! You can write it down one by one for me, and you can't miss one by one!"
"Don't worry, young master, I will never forget those murderers even if I die."
After walking out of the Sutra Pavilion, Lin Xun took a deep breath and began to give some instructions to Lin Zhong.
Speaking of this, he suddenly remembered something and said, "Did there be people from the other four branches of the tribe who robbed the Sutra Pavilion back then?"
Lin Zhong's whole body became stiff and his expression changed.
There was no need to ask any more. Lin Xun already knew the answer. His eyes suddenly became cold, but he chuckled and said, "Okay, very good!"
That smile was colder than his eyes and had no emotions.
Lin Zhong next to him felt a chill in his heart and was shocked.
