Chapter 1308 Witness the Rise of a Protagonist
The young man got the power. He did not publicize it. Instead, he kept this secret in his heart and lived a life that was no different from usual.
Because his parents were disgusted, he could only live alone in a shabby house far away from the village.
At dawn that day, the young man heard a shout from outside: "Zhao Lin, get out of here quickly, you are delaying the village chief's important event, can you bear it?"
Zhao Lin, a young man, walked out of the house and looked at his two peers outside expressionlessly: "Let's go."
Today is an annual event in the village. This is an important time for people in his village to go out. His parents also relied on this opportunity to successfully leave the village and develop outside.
If his parents hadn't offended someone, his identity would never be what it is now.
When he walked to the edge of the field, Zhao Lin was suddenly kicked from behind and fell to the ground on the spot.
A wild laugh came from behind him: "Haha, Zhao Lin, do you still want to walk out of the village like your parents? I tell you, stop dreaming! This time the village chief has already contacted the Baron. , the quota to go out can only be for one of our two brothers."
Zhao Lin lay on the ground, clenching his hands into fists, his eyes full of disbelief and anger.
Once a year, a baron will come to their village, select one of the men and women of the right age, and follow him. After a period of time, he can go to the Imperial College of Charan to study, and he may become a pillar of the empire in the future. .
But now, his way is blocked!
In other words, even if he wins against these two people, he can't walk out.
Zhao Lin did not explode at this time. He endured it, stood up without saying a word, and continued to move forward.
The two people behind him sneered. They never thought that Zhao Lin had the courage to resist.
When they arrived at the village, all the villagers were standing in an open space. The most conspicuous person in the scene was the baron who looked very noble in his dress. Standing behind him were his men.
Seeing the three people coming, the village chief said simply: "In our village, you are the only three who are of the right age. Now the Baron will test you. In the end, the Baron will choose one of you to follow the Baron." , and enter the Imperial College to study."
The baron stretched out his big belly and walked up to the three of them: "My test is very simple. I asked someone to put something in the mountains. I give you one hour to find the thing and bring it to In front of me."
"Lord Baron, I will definitely get that thing."
The three of them said in unison, and then they ran towards the mountains.
As a bystander, Su Chen naturally knew immediately what that thing was and where it was placed.
But he didn't tell Zhao Lin secretly that if he couldn't solve even such a problem, he was not the protagonist he chose.
In fact, this test was obviously prepared for those two people. The village chief must know where the thing was placed and secretly told them. In this case, Zhao Lin would definitely lose.
Zhao Lin was not stupid, he also thought of this, so he simply followed the two people.
The two of them glanced at Zhao Lin and didn't care. They ran directly to the top of the mountain and took out an jadeite stone from under a stone.
As people who grew up in the village, they had never seen something as beautiful as an emerald stone, but they knew better that this thing belonged to the Baron, and if they wanted to keep it for themselves, they would be seeking death.
After getting the jade stone, they were originally planning to fight for it, but there was another Zhao Lin in the field. They planned to beat Zhao Lin until he couldn't move, and then decide the final owner of the jade stone.
"Zhao Lin, you were running around in the mountains, and we weren't prepared to do anything to you, but you just followed us, so you can't blame us."
The two were gearing up, gradually approaching Zhao Lin with ferocious expressions.
If it was Zhao Lin before, he could only squat on the ground and hold his head with his hands to ensure that he was less injured.
But at this moment, he didn't do that. Instead, he looked at them intently and slowly stretched out a hand.
"Haha, it's too late to beg for mercy at this time!" The two of them pounced directly, and then... flew back at an even faster speed.
"ah!"
The two screamed in pain, and they looked at Zhao Lin in disbelief, the person they had bullied before.
"You...how do you have so much strength?" One of them pointed at Zhao Lin and shouted.
Zhao Lin didn't speak, but walked towards them step by step. At this time, the other man seemed to have thought of something, his face turned fierce, and he was filled with fear. He stretched out his hand, and there was a hatchet in his hand... !
As children in the village, they often help the family chop wood, so they naturally have hatchets in their pockets.
Only Zhao Lin didn't. The reason was simple: the people in the village wouldn't give it to him.
"Zhao Lin, don't think that you can do whatever you want if you are stronger. If you dare to get close again, see if I don't hack you to death!"
Su Chen, who had been observing this place, almost laughed out loud. If an ordinary person could hurt a first-order extraordinary person, then this first-order extraordinary person could really hit him to death with a piece of tofu.
Not only are first-level extraordinary beings stronger than ordinary people, they are also far superior to ordinary people in all other aspects, the most obvious one being... speed!
Just when the two were on full alert, they felt their eyes flash, and Zhao Lin's fist appeared on their faces.
Bump!
One punch knocked each of them unconscious on the ground. Then Zhao Lin took the jade stone from them and went down the mountain alone.
When the villagers saw that the person who came back with the jade stone was actually Zhao Lin, they were stunned.
Who doesn't know that the village chief has already made all preparations to give the two people the exact location, as long as it's not Zhao Lin, why did Zhao Lin come back?
"Lord Baron, this is the jade stone you put down." Zhao Lin held the jade stone in both hands and stood in front of the baron.
The baron's expression was a little embarrassed. Of course he knew that the boy in front of him could not go out, otherwise the village chief would not give up.
But as he said before, whoever brings things back will be let go with him, and now he is in trouble.
After thinking for a while, the Baron came up with a good idea. He coughed lightly and said, "You made a mistake. The one I asked people to put down was not the jade stone. You'd better go look for it again."
Hearing this, Zhao Lin was stunned. The village chief was stunned at first, and then his eyes lit up. He hurriedly said: "Yes, Zhao Lin, this is not what the Baron put down."
Zhao Lin felt that the whole world had collapsed. But he looked at what the two people took out from under the stone. How could it not be this thing?
He realized in a blink of an eye that the baron and the village chief were working together to prevent him from getting out!
