Legend of Reborn Alchemist

0Lin Cheng's heart sank. These servants were obviously stronger than him. If he was blocked by them at this time, the consequences would be dire.    

    

Lu Yiwen saw Lin Cheng's reaction and immediately noticed the servants. She could not help being surprised. "Junior Brother Lin, who did you offend?"    

    

Lin Cheng nodded and said, "That's right. Senior sister Lu, I have to take my leave first."    

    

Seeing that the servants had sped up towards him, Lin Cheng immediately turned around and left. If he was outside, he could use the terrain to deal with these people. If his plan was good, he was even confident that he could kill one or two of them.    

    

However, they were in their territory right now, so Lin Cheng could only leave.    

    

"Junior Brother Lin, follow me!"    

    

Lu Yiwen quickly caught up and whispered, "I know there is a way to leave the academy and get rid of them."    

    

Lin Cheng was slightly stunned, but Lu Yiwen had already walked in another direction quickly.    

    

After hesitating for a moment, Lin Cheng quickly followed.    

    

The two of them passed through the crowd of people participating in the exam and circled around the academy a few times. Finally, Lu Yiwen brought Lin Cheng to a small door.    

    

"This is...?"    

    

Lin Cheng looked outside and found that there was a field outside. It was very vast and he could not help but look at Lu Yiwen in doubt.    

    

Lu Yiwen said, "If you go out from here, it will be the herbal field of the academy. Ordinary students cannot pass through here. But Junior Brother Lin, since you are not a student of the academy, you can go through here as long as you are not caught."    

    

Lin Cheng was stunned. This was actually the academy's medicinal field? Then why was there no one guarding it?    

    

No matter which power it was, the medicinal field was of utmost importance. They would always send someone to guard it. However, there was no one in the medicinal field that could be seen. How could the Dongzhou College be so confident?    

    

Seeing Lin Cheng's puzzled expression, Lu Yiwen explained, "This is a small path. Usually, it only opens when picking herbs. There is another door that leads to the medicinal field. After that door is the medicinal field. There are people guarding that place. However, if you just wanted to leave, you wouldn't have to go through the second door. As long as you get out of this door and walk along the wall, it'll be fine."    

    

Lin Cheng finally understood. He cupped his fists at Lu Yiwen and said, "Senior sister Lu, thank you very much."    

    

Lu Yiwen shook her head slightly and said, "Junior Brother Lin, you are welcome. It was just a small effort. You were able to help my father send me the jade plate. I should be thanking you. It's just that I was too sad yesterday and forgot to thank you. I hope Junior Brother Lin doesn't find it strange. "    

    

Lin Cheng smiled and said, "Then we do not need to thank each other. Sister Lu, we will take our leave now."    

    

"Wait."    

    

Lu Yiwen stopped Lin Cheng and said, "Junior Brother Lin, I will go out with you. I want to ask you about some things about my father."    

    

Lin Cheng asked, "Sister Lu, you just said that the students of the academy cannot go out from here, right?"    

    

Lu Yiwen shook her head and said, "We will walk along the edge of the medicinal field. Be careful and no one will catch us. Hurry up and leave. If we delay any longer, perhaps those people will chase after us again."    

    

Lin Cheng did not hesitate anymore and nodded. He followed behind Lu Yiwen and easily jumped over the small door.    

    

The two of them walked along the edge of the medicinal field and carefully left. During this period of time, they even avoided the patrolling guards several times. After walking for more than an hour, they finally left the medicinal field.    

    

"Junior Brother Lin, where are you going next?" Lu Yiwen suddenly asked as the two of them walked quickly.    

    

"I don't know yet. I might go to Yongan City or train there."    

    

Lin Cheng vaguely said, "Senior sister Lu, please stop. Those few people probably won't chase after me. I will just leave by myself."    

    

Lu Yiwen shook her head and said, "Junior Brother Lin must not be careless. This area of more than ten miles is the territory of Dongzhou College. The influence of the academy can be extended to hundreds of thousands of miles. Those people just now were clearly people of the academy. If they want to find you, you have nowhere to hide in this area. "    

    

Lin Cheng frowned slightly. Of course, he knew the power of Dongzhou College was enormous. It had a wide range of influence, but he wouldn't think too much about it. After that, he would head to the Boundless Forest. No matter how big the influence of the Dongzhou College was... It wouldn't be easy to find him in the Boundless Forest.    

    

Furthermore, even if those servants really found him, Lin Cheng was confident that he could deal with them in the Boundless Forest, or even kill all of them!    

    

However, these words were not easy to say to Lu Yiwen. Lin Cheng wanted to find another reason to explain. However, he heard Lu Yiwen say, "Junior Brother Lin, don't worry. I am quite familiar with this area. You follow me. I can safely send you out."    

    

She left before Lin Cheng could reject her.    

    

Lin Cheng had no choice but to follow her.    

    

The two of them walked for another two hours. Finally, they were very far away from Dongzhou College. The towering city walls of the academy became much smaller in their line of sight.    

    

"Senior Sister Lu, where are we going?" Lin Cheng asked. He noticed that Lu Yiwen was leading him towards the south of Dongzhou. He couldn't help but feel strange.    

    

One should know that the nearest city near Dongzhou College was the Yongan City in the north. The Boundless Forest was to the east, but there was only a city a few hundred miles to the south. Could it be that Lu Yiwen wanted to bring him to another city after traveling for a few hundred miles?    

    

However, Lin Cheng thought about it. His memory was from a hundred years ago. Perhaps, there were other cities in the vicinity during these hundred years?    

    

"Junior Brother Lin, you might not know this, but there are a few official paths several dozen miles away from Dongzhou College. There are relay stations everywhere. These relay stations all belong to Dongzhou College. If those people send a message, you might not be able to go anywhere by then. "    

    

Lu Yiwen said, "The only safe place is the Boundless Forest in the east. But we cannot go to the Boundless Forest directly. There is a relay station between the academy and the Boundless Forest. So we have to go around from the south. "    

    

Lin Cheng couldn't help but ask, "Us? Senior Sister Lu, you want to go to Boundless Forest too?"    

    

He wasn't surprised when he heard Lu Yiwen say she wanted to go to Boundless Forest. After all, his goal was also to go to Boundless Forest. However, from Lu Yiwen's tone, it seemed that she wanted to go too. Lin Cheng was slightly surprised.    

    

Lu Yiwen shook her head and said," I cannot leave the academy for too long. But... You came all the way here to help me deliver the jade plates. I must repay your kindness. I have already gone to Boundless Forest to train a few times, so I am more familiar with the terrain here. That's why I have to personally send you to the vicinity of the Boundless Forest. "    

    

Just as Lin Cheng was about to refuse, Lu Yiwen hurriedly said, "Junior Brother Lin, if you refuse, then you will make me feel guilty for the rest of my life. Furthermore, only by getting rid of those few people will I be able to get rid of them. I need to calm down and ask you something."    

    

Lin Cheng was stunned. He could only nod slightly when he saw Lu Yiwen's determination.    

    

However, he felt somewhat strange in his heart. The few people chasing after him were only servants. They actually had so much authority to send messages and mobilize all the people in the nearby relay station?    

    

If Seventh Elder Shui Hui gave the order to let everyone chase after him, but Lu Yiwen naturally did not know that Shui Hui wanted to kill him today. But she had gone through so much trouble and was very careful. This made Lin Cheng have a strange feeling.    

    

Maybe Lu Yiwen was just too timid, or maybe she recognized those servants were Shui Hui's subordinates?    

    

Lin Cheng suppressed this doubt in his heart and did not ask. The two of them rushed towards the Boundless Forest.    

    

One day later.    

    

They had finally arrived at the Boundless Forest.    

0

    

Lu Yiwen was indeed very familiar with the terrain here. She easily bypassed the relay station in Dongzhou College. She even went so far as to avoid the relay station in the ___. In order to prevent Lin Cheng from being exposed, Lu Yiwen went to the relay station alone. She brought back two water sacks and some food.    

    

Finally, the two of them went straight to the outer perimeter of Boundless Forest.    

    

"Junior Brother Lin, drink some water."    

    

After stopping, Lu Yiwen took out a water bag and handed it to Lin Cheng, "Stop here. I can't waste too much time. Otherwise, I will be punished when I go back. I hope Junior Brother Lin can forgive me."    

    

Lin Cheng shook his head and said, "Sister Lu, you are too polite. I am already very grateful that you are able to send me here."    

    

He only gave the jade card to Lu Yiwen but also accepted Lu Yuanshan's reward. Although he did not know what the Black Iron Chunk was, at least he knew that the Black Iron Chunk was very special. There was something extraordinary about it. It was definitely not an ordinary piece of iron. To him, this was already enough.    

    

Therefore, he was very grateful to Lu Yiwen for being so enthusiastic at this moment.    

    

However, besides feeling grateful, Lin Cheng also felt a little strange in his heart. Lu Yiwen was too enthusiastic. It made Lin Cheng almost think that he did not send Lu Yiwen the jade card, but her father's lifesaver.    

    

These thoughts flashed through his mind. Lin Cheng opened the water bag and raised his head to drink water.    

    

However, just as the water bag was about to reach his mouth, Lin Cheng's hand suddenly paused. His brows wrinkled slightly, but he was shocked in his heart.    

    

There was poison in the water!    

    

As an alchemist, Lin Cheng knew poison all too well. As soon as the water pouch reached his mouth, he sharply smelled a faint scent. Although the scent was very faint, if one didn't smell it carefully, one wouldn't be able to detect it. However, to Lin Cheng, this faint smell... It was enough for him to determine what kind of poison was in the water.    

    

Suppressing the shock in his heart, Lin Cheng glanced at Lu Yiwen from the corner of his eye and found that she was smiling at him. Lin Cheng immediately pretended to look around and turned around. He pretended to drink two mouthfuls of water before putting away the water bag.    

    

"Senior Lu, you said before that you wanted to know some things about your father?" Lin Cheng suddenly asked.    

    

"That's right!"    

    

Lu Yiwen nodded and said, "Junior Brother Lin, because I was too sad yesterday, I didn't have the time to ask. I want to know why my father was chased by the Chu Family's Cultivating Warrior.
