Chapter 31: The Lin Family Goes to the Banquet
In the cultivation room, there were clouds and mist.
With his hands on the edge of the bucket, Zhou Lin closed his eyes and lay in the bathtub soaking in the medicinal bath, summing up the gains and losses of the battle in his mind, his whole body was crispy and numb, and he wanted to sleep so comfortably, and the slight dark injuries caused by the continuous battles were completely recovered.
"Zhou Lin? Zhou Lin? ”
Qi Dong's slightly excited voice came from outside the door.
Zhou Lin Huoran woke up, slapped the edge of the bucket with both hands, his body rose into the air, spun in mid-air, and the water droplets he brought up dripped like flowers in the air, and he was already dressed after he landed.
"Teacher, it's so late, do you have something to do with me?"
With wet hair, Zhou Lin opened the door.
Qi Dong was obviously very interested, "Zhou Lin, you are famous now, and the people in Quanshenquan Town are asking you, no, you see, the teacher has dozens of invitations in his hand, and they are all inviting you to the banquet." ”
"Don't, teacher, if you want to go, I won't go. I'm still thinking about going to my parents, how can I have time to do all this eating and drinking, don't go, don't go. ”
Zhou Lin's head shook like a rattle.
Qi Dong smiled, his eyes flashed with wisdom, his finger pointed at Zhou Lin's forehead, and said, "I knew you didn't want to go!" So I didn't say yes either. Others can not go, you don't know you anyway, but you'd better go to this invitation from the Lin family. ”
"Why, am I familiar with them?"
"That's not true, in this Shenquan Town, the Lin family and the Bai family can match, do you understand what I mean?"
Zhou Lin was shocked, what does this mean, teacher?
Qi Dong said with a rare face: "You tell me honestly, what contradiction do you have with Yiyun?" ”
They are all his disciples, the palms and backs of their hands are full of meat, and now the two disciples are actually fighting among themselves, and he, who is a teacher, has no light on his face. If he could, he didn't expect the worst.
Zhou Lin was silent for a moment, looked up at Qi Dong, and said, "Teacher, if I say that I don't know you believe it at all?" ”
Qi Dong looked incredulous.
"Okay, then I'll tell you what happened."
Zhou Lin's eyes were sincere, and he told the story of the matter as it was: "Some time ago, the disciple went to the back mountain to hunt, hunted a wolf and sold it in the market, when the eldest lady of the Lin family was present and helped me say a few good words, the owner of the leather shop didn't dare to kill me, this matter was seen by Senior Brother Bai, probably because Miss Lin said a few words to me, he was very unhappy. Later, the people of the Cai family came up to provoke and sent people to chase and kill. In today's monthly exam, Lin Hai didn't know me at all, and since Senior Brother Bai said something to him, he was angry with me and threatened to break my legs. Teacher, if it weren't for Senior Brother Bai playing behind his back, I wouldn't believe it! ”
"How is that possible? It's impossible, Yiyun he ..... ”
Qi Dong looked shocked and felt impossible.
His eldest disciple, that amazing talent Bai Yiyun, would he be such a person?
It's unbelievable.
"The teacher doesn't believe it, does he? Then you can ask Lin Hai of the Lin family to see what Bai Yiyun told him. ”
Seeing Qi Dong defending Bai Yiyun like this, Zhou Lin was unhappy in his heart, and his expression became colder, "Teacher, why don't I go back to the old mansion first." ”
Qi Donghuo was shocked and said categorically: "No! If, I mean, if what you say is true, then you will be in danger of going to the old mansion, I promised your grandfather to take care of you. ”
Zhou Lin said stubbornly: "No, teacher, I can take care of myself." ”
Probably guessing the disciple's thoughts, Qi Dong sighed, "Child, I have a lifelong friendship with your grandfather, and I won't harm you." The teacher will not shield anyone, if the truth is really as you say, the teacher will give you an explanation. ”
Zhou Lin's heart warmed, and he said softly: "Maybe the teacher will take a look secretly, and it will be clear." ”
"You mean to say ...... ”
Qi Dong's expression was shocked and thoughtful.
"I'll go to Lin's house tomorrow."
took the invitation of the Lin family from the teacher, just now, he suddenly understood a truth, two fists are hard to beat four hands, a Bai Yiyun is not terrible, what is terrible is that there is the Bai family behind him, as well as Xuanyuanzong.
With so much background, he has the qualifications to be arrogant.
Others are in awe of him, they are in awe of him, and perhaps it is the background behind him that is in awe.
And if you want to not be persecuted, you must be strong, or take advantage of the situation to make yourself look strong.
Nothing was said all night.
Early the next morning, he bathed and changed his clothes, and put on the uniform clothes of the disciples of the martial arts hall, and the whole person looked extraordinary.
It is true that people rely on clothing.
After thinking about it, he poured out three Qi Condensing Pills from the jade bottle, took another jade bottle and stuffed it into his arms, Zhou Lin Shi Ran walked towards the Lin family.
Shenquan Town is not big, and the Lin family is easy to find.
Knock knock!
Knocking on the door of the Lin family, Zhou Lin handed over the invitation, "Please report, just say that Zhou Lin came to the banquet!" ”
"Zhou Gongzi, please! The master has an explanation, as long as Zhou Gongzi comes without having to report, he will be invited directly into the living room. ”
The guard at the door obviously got the order and led Zhou Lin inside.
This Lin family is worthy of being one of the best big families in Shenquan Town, with huge houses, rockeries and small lakes along the way, pavilions and pavilions, and winding paths.
The courtyard was deep, and it took him through three small doors to reach the living room, and along the way, he really let the young Zhou Lin see what it means to be big.
"Welcome to my Lin family as a guest, young genius, yesterday's battle, it just made me look at it."
After getting the news of Zhou Lin's arrival, Lin Xiangyang, the head of the Lin family, and his daughter Lin Ruiqing were already waiting in the living room.
"The head of the Lin family has a good reputation, the first time I came, I didn't bring any gifts, my grandfather left a few Qi Condensing Pills at that time, so I borrowed flowers to offer Buddha and dedicated them to the head of the family. Yesterday's battle, there is a last resort, and I ask the head of the family not to mind. ”
Zhou Lin hugged his fists and saluted, then took out the jade bottle from his arms and handed it over.
Condensing Pill!
Lin Xiangyang's pupils shrank, this kind of pill is extremely rare in Shenquan Town, a Qi Condensing Pill can shorten the time of a martial artist by half a month, if a martial artist takes it, it can directly improve the realm.
Although the Shennongtang in the town is sold, the price is expensive, and it is a strategic material, and the more the better.
"How embarrassing is this, it's just a light meal, the virtuous nephew is too polite. Back then, your grandfather was famous, and he didn't expect to leave so many good things behind. ”
I took the jade bottle and looked at it, there were three Qi Condensing Pills inside.
Although there are only three, Zhou Lin can take them out, which shows that his sincerity is commendable.
Lin Xiangyang was in a good mood, and hurriedly said: "Hey, don't stand, come in and sit, Ruiqing, this is your junior brother, I will take him around later." ”
Neither of them mentioned Lin Hai's business, Zhou Lin gave medicine, Lin Xiangyang took it, but this festival was solved.
Shenquan Town is not big, Zhou Lin was the first to go to Lin's house, Lin Xiangyang had a lot of face, and his gaze at Zhou Lin was much kinder.
Lin Ruiqing looked at Zhou Lin curiously, showed her face, and said with a coquettish smile: "Senior brother, your performance yesterday can be admired by senior sisters." Who would have thought that the customer who came to the door carrying his prey would be the grandson of Senior Zhou, and he was so powerful. ”
"Senior sister praised it falsely, at that time, I just had no money, hunting to earn some money to buy food."
Zhou Lin scratched his head, and was a little embarrassed by Lin Ruiqing's words.
"Okay, you young people talk first, I'll go and prepare."
I don't know if it was intentional or unintentional, Lin Xiangyang smiled and left first.
"Senior brother, then go around with me."
Lin Ruiqing got up, with a cold temperament on her body.
"Good!"
Standing by the lake in the courtyard, facing the gentle breeze, the two stood side by side.
"It seems that the junior brother is going to compete for the qualification to go to the county martial arts hall."
Lin Ruiqing suddenly spoke, her eyes still looking into the distance, a little light and light.
Zhou Lin was shocked, she found out?
He glanced at Lin Ruiqing from the corner of his eye, and found that Lin Ruiqing was motionless, so he had to suppress the shock in his heart, and said deliberately: "Senior sister said that I am laughing, where does my new martial artist have that qualification." ”
"You can fool others, you can't fool me, I just want to say, you have to be careful of Bai Yiyun."
Lin Ruiqing frowned and nodded.
"Why?"
Zhou Lin raised his eyebrows, he couldn't imagine that this eldest lady of the Lin family would actually say such a thing.
"My younger brother Xiao Hai woke up and said that Bai Yiyun instigated him to deal with you, don't worry, when he is all right, my father will send him to the county town to take care of the family's affairs, and he will not be your enemy."
"I didn't blame Lin Hai, speaking of which, the reason why Senior Brother Bai targeted me seems to be because of you, but I am invisibly blocking thunder for you."
Zhou Lin's eyes narrowed, he didn't believe that Lin Ruiqing would not be able to see it if he was so smart.
Bai Yiyun ..... I don't like him at all, he's too careful, sticking to his back like a cowhide plaster all day long, and he's annoyed to death. You are a manly man, and blocking the thunder for the little woman is called doing the right thing for heaven. ”
Lin Ruiqing turned her head, blinked her big eyes, stuck out her tongue, and returned to her eccentric appearance.
Zhou Lin was stunned.
This eldest lady changed her face too quickly, just now she was still looking like a beautiful and shrewd and capable woman, and after a while, she immediately became a little girl again.
"What do you want me to do? Do I have flowers on my face? By the way, when you're done eating, come with me to the market, I'm going to buy something. ”
Lin Ruiqing touched her face and suddenly blushed.
"Ah, of course not, of course not .... ”
Zhou Lin lowered his gaze and didn't dare to look directly.
Both of them lowered their heads, the atmosphere was a little drunk, and neither of them knew what to say, so they were silent.
The bright sunshine seems to have a hint of spring, and the breeze is smiling.
"Miss, Master Zhou, the master said that the feast is ready, please come over."
A servant came from a distance, breaking the silence between the two.
"Ahh I'll go right away! ”
Lin Ruiqing jumped up and ran away with her skirt.
"Huh? How can Miss run so fast? Ah, Zhou Gongzi, please here! ”
The little guy scratched his head, a little unclear.
An ordinary feast, with only a few people from the Lin family, should be a family banquet.
Lin Ruiqing kept her head down and kept chewing silently, not knowing what was going on in her head.
Zhou Lin is the same.
The atmosphere was a little weird, Lin Xiangyang looked at his daughter, then at Zhou Lin, and suddenly shook his head.
Today's children are getting more and more incomprehensible.
