Chapter 265
Chapter 265
After singing the song, Lin Shuyou left the box, walked to the bathroom at the end, turned on the faucet, and washed his face.
He has lived in the temple since he was a child.
Although the temple was not isolated from the outside world and he went to school normally, and his master and grandfather were a bit old-fashioned but by no means feudal, the practice of Guanjiangshu since he was young still occupied most of his spare time.
It was not until he went to college that he had his own freedom. Therefore, he has always been grateful to Tan Wenbin who took the initiative to take him out to play during military training.
But I have to admit that the things I felt depressed about when I was young might not be about the things themselves, but I simply disliked the depression. When I really had the chance to indulge myself, I unexpectedly discovered that I didn't seem to like such places.
"Crack!"
Chen Lin opened the lid of the lighter, stood behind Lin Shuyou, and lit a cigarette.
"Nice singing."
"Thank you."
"Yunyun said that you guys have already started your internship."
"um, yes."
"That shouldn't be the case. I heard that those who work on projects outside are very familiar with places like this."
Lin Shuyou shook his hands: "That's the salary of the project manager. It has nothing to do with us."
"Okay, wait for me." Chen Lin threw the car keys, cosmetic bag, cigarette case and lighter to Lin Shuyou and walked into the bathroom.
At this time, a group of people who were obviously drunk walked over here.
Big gold chain, bald head, scars, extensive tattoos...it fits the stereotype very well.
It is not easy to see these people on weekdays, but it is very easy in such entertainment venues.
Lin Shuyou stepped back a few steps to make way for them.
Chen Lin came out and confronted them.
The scarred leader laughed and said, "Hey, this is top quality stuff. Come on, let's go to my brother's box and have a few drinks."
As he said this, he reached out to touch Chen Lin's face.
"Snapped!"
Chen Lin pulled the other person's hand away and glared at him.
The person next to him advised: "Forget it, forget it, he doesn't work here, he must have made a mistake."
Scarface smiled awkwardly, said nothing, and walked into the men's bathroom.
Chen Lin walked to the sink and washed her hands, and Lin Shuyou handed her things back to her.
"You know, if they had continued to harass me, I would have suspected that you had arranged this in advance."
Lin Shuyou: "How is that possible?"
Chen Lin: "A hero saves a beautiful girl."
Lin Shuyou smiled and said nothing more.
Chen Lin: "I know you wouldn't do such a thing, but your brother Bin might be able to arrange it. He's a very capable person. No wonder Yunyun fell in love with him so easily."
Lin Shuyou: "Brother Bin is very sentimental."
Chen Lin: "Who have you ever seen say that they have no feelings?"
Lin Shuyou really thought of someone immediately.
Chen Lin reached out and touched Lin Shuyou's face.
I thought Lin Shuyou would retreat, but at this time, he was thinking about Brother Xiaoyuan, so he didn't retreat.
Chen Lin paused slightly, but still touched it.
It feels surprisingly good, smooth, firm and with a slight coolness.
This made Chen Lin subconsciously look at Lin Shuyou's arm, and then his chest.
Logically speaking, this place should be easier to touch.
She took her hand back and said, "Do you take care of your skin?"
Lin Shuyou came back to his senses: "No, I don't do those."
"How did she do it? She runs around on the construction site every day and still has such fair skin and tender flesh. Is she naturally beautiful?"
Chen Lin did not open the negative side. When she was on the positive side, her perception was similar to that of ordinary people.
Therefore, she didn't know that what she had just touched was the body of a True Lord.
After the boy entered Lin Shuyou's body, he performed a profound transformation on him.
Lin Shuyou: “I don’t know.”
He had no interest in her in the first place, and after knowing that the other party was an Onmyoji, Lin Shuyou was even more unwilling to get too involved.
For Zhou Yunyun's sake, he invited her over. After she left Nantong, Lin Shuyou felt that the two of them would probably not have any more interactions in the future.
The two returned to the box, where they were still singing.
Chen Lin quickly integrated into the group, while Lin Shuyou returned to his original corner seat, poked a straw into the can, and drank Jianlibao quietly.
Finally, everyone had a great time.
Tan Wenbin suggested going out for a midnight snack, but Aunt Liu refused and planned to go back.
Just like that, the two sides separated. Yin Meng drove the pickup truck to take the others back, while Tan Wenbin took Zhou Yunyun, Chen Lin and Lin Shuyou to find a night snack stall near the karaoke room.
The stall owner is a middle-aged couple. Their young daughter is sleeping soundly on a chair covered with a quilt.
Tan Wenbin ordered a few dishes and asked for a bowl of wontons for each person.
Chen Lin: "Is Aunt Liu really the helper in Mr. Li's house?"
Zhou Yunyun: "Yes, Aunt Liu's husband, mother-in-law and daughter also live in Uncle Li's house. You should have seen them when you went there today."
Chen Lin: "Is that the girl on the second floor terrace? She's so pretty."
Zhou Yunyun nodded: "Yes, that's A-Li."
Chen Lin: "I think Aunt Liu's singing skills don't sound like an amateur."
Zhou Yunyun: "I don't know about that, but she really sang very well."
Chen Lin: "There was also the one who sang Thousands of Songs. I sat next to her at first and felt very cold. Later, I changed seats when I went to the bathroom."
Tan Wenbin: "Everyone has different constitutions. Some people just have a cold body."
The stir-fried vegetables and wontons were served. Chen Lin took a spoonful of soup and asked, "Where are we going next?"
Zhou Yunyun: "Linlin, where else do you want to go?"
Chen Lin: "What I mean is, are you planning to go back to Shigang or open a hotel nearby? If you open a hotel, just book a room for me."
Tan Wenbin: "Go back to Yunyun's house in Shigang. You can sleep with Yunyun at night."
Chen Lin: "So, you found a place in the village this afternoon and got the job done?"
Zhou Yunyun: "Linlin, you're here again."
Chen Lin turned to look at Lin Shuyou and said, "I'm just wondering, isn't your partner our Brother Bin? How come the one working so hard in your fields this afternoon is this Ah You?"
Lin Shuyou: “…”
Zhou Yunyun was stunned for a moment, and looked at Lin Shuyou in confusion: "Ayou, you..."
Lin Shuyou quickly raised his hand and explained, "I'm just idle, so I'm helping grandpa with some work."
Zhou Yunyun: "I'm sorry for not hosting you well, my friend."
Lin Shuyou: "No, no, I can't stay idle at Uncle Li's house either. I like to work."
Chen Lin: "If you're like this, you're destined to be ordered around by your brother Bin forever."
Tan Wenbin took out his cigarette case, pulled out two cigarettes, threw one to Chen Lin, and asked:
"You didn't see me, so why are you starting to stand up for me now?"
Chen Lin: "Let's put it this way. He's an honest person, you can't bully him like that."
Tan Wenbin: "There's no need to be polite between us."
Chen Lin: "You sound as if you've been through some big storms together."
Tan Wenbin: "Do you have any brothers or sisters?"
Chen Lin blew out a smoke ring, his expression changed slightly, and said:
"I have an older brother. He's been away from home for a while, and I haven't seen him for a long time."
Tan Wenbin: "Running away from home?"
Chen Lin shook his head: "I left home to work on a boat. I've been on the river all the time and I hardly ever go home."
Tan Wenbin: "Your family doesn't seem to be short of money."
Chen Lin: "Every family has its own problems."
Tan Wenbin picked up a piece of food and put it into his mouth to chew. It sounded like he was walking around the world with a lamp on.
But logically speaking, there is no need for Chen Lin's lineage to leave the river. Could it be that her brother wants to challenge himself?
If that's the case, it's a good thing that Ayou has no feelings for her, otherwise one day they might run into each other in the waves and Ayou might accidentally kill his own brother-in-law with his own hands.
Zhou Yunyun: "Linlin, why haven't I heard you mention it before?"
Chen Lin: "Haven't you mentioned it? Didn't you mention it today?"
At this time, Tan Wenbin raised his head and looked behind Lin Shuyou, and Lin Shuyou also slightly turned sideways to look behind him.
The little girl who was originally sitting there sleeping was now standing there, looking at them.
Ordinary people thought that the little girl just woke up and it was no big deal, but Tan Wenbin and Lin Shuyou sensed a strange aura.
Moreover, this breath is somewhat familiar.
The little girl turned around and walked towards the alley ahead.
Tan Wenbin glanced at Lin Shuyou.
Lin Shuyou nodded slightly, stood up, and said, "I'm going to the bathroom."
Chen Lin: "Where is the public toilet nearby?"
Tan Wenbin: "As a man, you don't have to be so particular."
Lin Shuyou walked into the alley and the little girl stood there, looking at him.
When Lin Shuyou approached, the little girl knelt on one knee and saluted:
"I've met my lord."
Through the vertical pupils, Lin Shuyou could see that behind the little girl, there was a girl of the same stature standing. Her aura was that of the Queen of the Bai Family.
"what's up?"
"Someone came to Nantong and asked me to find someone in Baijia Town."
Lin Shuyou frowned slightly: "Please tell me more details."
The little girl was also stunned for a moment, as if thinking about how to explain it in detail.
Lin Shuyou: "Can your Baijia Town still accept commissions now?"
The little girl heard the blame in Lin Shuyou's words, and she hurriedly said:
"Baijia Town surrenders to Long...Nantong corpse-fishing Li.
But, my lord, you have not interfered in the daily operations of my Baijia Town.
Our Baijia Town does not have much contact with the outside world, but in the affairs of the martial arts world, there are occasionally exceptions. If the other party's identity is special, Baijia Town will give him some face. "
After Li Zhuiyuan built a Taoist temple in Nantong, he forced Baijia Town to submit to him.
However, Li Zhuiyuan did not interfere deeply in the operation of Baijia Town. Firstly, he did not have the manpower, and secondly, he was not interested.
Generally speaking, Li Zhuiyuan had two requirements for Baijia Town. One was that they must not go ashore to harm people, and the other was that they must come out and accept deployment under his orders when needed.
Lin Shuyou: "Who is the client?"
"Our mother said he used a fake identity."
"Fake identity?"
"But he offered a high enough stakes."
"Who is he looking for?"
"That is the one who is dining with you now, my Lord."
Chen Lin?
Lin Shuyou nodded: "I understand, you can go now. It's not good for her health to continue to be attached to the little girl."
As soon as the words fell, Lin Shuyou's eyelids began to bulge, and the boy's exasperated voice came from the bottom of his heart:
"How can you let her go like this? Keep her here first. You can let her provide clues to the location of that person and lead him out."
Lin Shuyou: "I don't know if it's necessary to do this."
The people who are looking for Chen Lin must have a grudge against Chen Lin or her old house. Lin Shuyou feels that he currently has no motivation to help others solve such a problem.
Moreover, whether or not to be involved in the cause and effect of other family forces is not decided by him.
Tongzi: "Keep it for now, and ask Tan Wenbin for his opinion."
The lady of the Bai family had just left the little girl's body and was about to leave.
"Hey, wait a minute."
The little girl's figure, which was about to soften, immediately straightened up again.
"You stay here first, follow us, and wait for our notification."
"Yes, my lord."
"Also, you don't have to occupy her body anymore, just float next to us."
"Yes."
The lady of the Bai family left the little girl's body again. Perhaps she noticed Lin Shuyou's concern for the little girl's physical condition. After leaving, the lady floated in front of the little girl and breathed three times on her forehead.
The little girl's forehead gradually turned darker.
Lin Shuyou: "What are you doing?"
Lady Bai: "Sir, she has a hidden disease. I will help her to stimulate it so that it can be discovered and treated early."
"Well, you are interested."
"You are kind-hearted, sir."
The little girl walked out of the alley drowsily, sat back in her original chair, and continued to sleep, only coughing once or twice from time to time.
Lin Shuyou sat back at the small dining table, and when his eyes met Tan Wenbin's, he reached for the chopsticks.
Chen Lin: "Have you washed your hands?"
Lin Shuyou: “No…”
Chen Lin picked up a bottle of purified water on the table and said, "Stretch out your hands and wash them."
Lin Shuyou reached out to take the water and rubbed it.
After having supper, Tan Wenbin asked the two girls to wait here while he and Lin Shuyou drove the car over.
On the way, Lin Shuyou told Tan Wenbin what had happened before.
Tan Wenbin: "Then he must be her family's enemy."
Lin Shuyou: "Brother Bin, what should we do?"
Tan Wenbin: "What do you think Brother Xiaoyuan would do if this matter was reported to him?"
Lin Shuyou: "Brother Xiaoyuan doesn't like trouble, so he probably won't care."
Tan Wenbin: "No, Brother Xiaoyuan will probably choose to intervene. Since the people who were looking for Chen Lin knew that Chen Lin was in Nantong, they should have known that Chen Lin was studying at Jinling University.
There must be a reason for choosing Nantong to seek revenge.
I suspect that it is because Chen Lin possesses some special means, which are somewhat evil in nature. After she entered Nantong, she was suppressed by the person under the peach forest.
Either they were not brought in, or they were brought in but cannot be used.
This gave that person the opportunity to seek revenge.
Elsewhere, the man was less sure of success.
It is true that you and she are not attracted to each other. If you were attracted to each other and really planned to be together, even Brother Xiaoyuan would have to help you resolve the issue in your girlfriend's family for the sake of your friend, just like he helped Xue Liangliang.
Now, there is really no need for us to help Chen Lin or the Chen family solve this problem.
But they took advantage of Chen Lin's visit to Nantong. After all, Chen Lin was here with Zhou Yunyun as a guest. If some of his methods could not be used due to the suppression here, and others took advantage of the opportunity, it would be a bit unreasonable for us to do so."
Tan Wenbin opened the car door and was about to sit in the driver's seat when he stopped.
"Ahyou, I remember you didn't drink?"
"Didn't drink."
"Then you drive. I've been drinking and I won't drive."
"it is good."
The two got into the car. When Lin Shuyou was about to start the car, Tan Wenbin held his hand and said, "Call out the lady from the Bai family."
Lin Shuyou opened his pupils and looked around, and soon, the lady of the Bai family appeared in front of the car's windshield.
The shadow of a pale little girl was kneeling there, which was indeed a bit creepy in the middle of the night.
Tan Wenbin: "Go and inform the person who entrusted you of the location. It's Siyuan Village, Shinan Town. Turn in at the second entrance after Shijia Bridge. It's on the north side of the village road. There's a two-story building and two bungalows on the east and west sides."
Lin Shuyou blinked. The address Brother Bin reported was Uncle Li’s house.
"Yes, my lord."
"Wait a minute, I haven't finished speaking yet."
"Please continue with your orders, sir."
"Tell your lady that some rules have to be changed.
From today on, if you encounter similar things in Baijia Town again, you must report to us in advance. If we are not at home..."
Tan Wenbin took out a small notebook, wrote down the number, tore off the paper and handed it to the other party, "Report to him first."
The number is from the discount store and the recorder is Lu Yi.
In fact, it would be okay to report directly to Xiong Shan and Lihua, but strictly speaking, these two are not our own people, as they have defected to the Dragon King's family.
Lu Yi has accumulated rich experience in this regard. The low-priced store is now the property of his own team, and Lu Yi is working for them.
Lady Bai opened her mouth, sucked the note into her mouth, and said respectfully again:
"As ordered!"
"Give your lady a message. I will go visit them when I am free in a couple of days."
"Yes, I look forward to seeing you."
"You go."
Lady Bai drifted away in the wind.
Lin Shuyou took out his cell phone and asked, "Brother Bin, do you need to notify Brother Xiaoyuan in advance?"
“Why do you need to notify?”
"After all, they are all going to be taken home."
"Yeah, they've all been taken home. Do you think it's necessary to notify them?"
Lin Shuyou suddenly realized: "Yes, that's right."
Other people’s homes are weak points, but our own home is the opposite, literally “iron bones”.
Tan Wenbin: "We have to drive back anyway, so just tell Brother Xiaoyuan when the time comes. The main thing is that you just need to send a pager. Do you want Brother Xiaoyuan to run out and knock on the iron door of Aunt Zhang's store just to call us back?
Tsk, I think I still need to install a landline at home, otherwise it will be really inconvenient."
Lin Shuyou: "Indeed, you should pretend."
Tan Wenbin: "I had originally planned to install it during the Chinese New Year, and I convinced Mr. Li at the time. It was only because of Xue Liangliang's words that he said the price of installing a phone would become cheaper and cheaper in the future that Mr. Li changed his mind."
Lin Shuyou: "But it's convenient to have a phone."
Tan Wenbin looked at the mobile phone in his hand and said, "It's okay. Before I go to visit the Bai family's wife in a few days, I will talk to Brother Liangliang and hint that we need a second mobile phone. He will understand.
If it were someone else, I would be embarrassed to take advantage of him, but he... there is nothing to be embarrassed about, he is really rich, and the kind of person who has no place to spend his money. "
Lin Shuyou nodded: "Yes, that's right." Lin Shuyou gave a report speech at the last event in Beijing. The hotel was of such a high standard. Alas, Xue Liangliang was already rich enough to sponsor himself to play.
Tan Wenbin: "In short, we are not responsible for the Chen family's affairs and we are not interested in participating in them, but Chen Lin cannot get into trouble in Nantong, otherwise it would be a disrespect to our Nantong corpse recovery Li."
Lin Shuyou immediately felt as if everything had suddenly become clear.
Boy: “I thought so too.”
Lin Shuyou: "Then why didn't you tell me just now?"
Boy: "I..."
Lin Shuyou: "So your second venture is still not as good as Brother Bin's."
Boy: “You…”
Lin Shuyou: "You're still dreaming of replacing Brother Bin."
Boy: “Wooooa ...
Tan Wenbin: "Let's use courtesy first and force later. If that guy can understand, he will withdraw from Nantong and the matter will be settled. If he insists on taking action in Nantong, then we will hand him over."
The car drove to the side of the road, Chen Lin walked to the passenger door and knocked on the window.
Tan Wenbin rolled down the car window and said with a smile, "Why, you can't leave my Ah You?"
Chen Lin: "Why don't you go to the back and sit with your Yunyun?"
Tan Wenbin: "If love is long-lasting, why should we be together day and night?"
Having said that, Tan Wenbin still got out of the car and sat in the back seat.
Chen Lin sat in the passenger seat.
Tan Wenbin said, "It's late now. It's easy to disturb my family if I go home. How about this, I stay at Uncle Li's house tonight."
Chen Lin: "If Yunyun doesn't go back, won't her family be worried?"
Tan Wenbin: "Aren't you very open-minded? Why are you still worried about this?"
Chen Lin: "I am who I am, and Yunyun is what Yunyun is. If I can't wait for her to come back, her family will be worried."
Tan Wenbin: "Yunyun went out with me and didn't come back at night. Why are the family members so worried?"
Chen Lin thought it made sense, so he turned around and walked forward without saying anything else.
In fact, the purpose of Tan Wenbin's arrangement was that he was worried that the person seeking revenge would be able to sense Chen Lin's breath at close range, so of course one had to put out the bait first before fishing.
The car drove to Siyuan Village and stopped below the dam where Li Sanjiang lived.
Tan Wenbin first walked to the door of the west room and knocked.
The door opened quickly, and Yin Meng in pajamas appeared in front of Tan Wenbin:
"Why, do you need to knock on the door and say hello at night?"
"Yunyun and Chen Lin are staying here tonight."
"I have no objection."
"There's no other place to stay at home, so I need you to vacate a room."
"Where do I sleep then?"
"There's a coffin in the living room to lie in."
Yin Meng: "What's the matter?"
Tan Wenbin nodded: "Yes, something happened."
"Okay." Yin Meng walked out.
"Um, have you packed up all the bottles and jars inside?"
"It's all covered. It'll be fine if they don't touch it."
"Thank you, Mengmeng. You know, if I had a choice, I wouldn't arrange for them to live in your house."
"hehe."
Tan Wenbin arranged Zhou Yunyun and Chen Lin to go in, and then brought them basins and hot water so that they could wash up before going to bed.
After doing all this, Tan Wenbin looked at the time and pointed at Lin Shuyou.
"understand!"
Lin Shuyou walked down the dam and disappeared into the fields.
There's no need to wait until they actually come to your house. What if they make some noise and wake up your family?
Therefore, it is better to detect and stop the enemy from a distance, then explain the situation to them and make them retreat.
Tan Wenbin ran up to the second floor and as soon as he opened the door, he saw Brother Xiaoyuan sitting up from the bed.
"Brother Binbin, what's wrong?"
Everyone's footsteps are different. When he has nothing to do, Tan Wenbin rarely comes to the second floor.
"Brother Xiaoyuan, it's like this..."
Tan Wenbin gave a brief summary of the matter.
After listening to this, Li Zhuiyuan asked, "Are you sure Ah You has no feelings for her?"
Tan Wenbin: “No.”
"Then let's do as you wish, Brother Binbin." After Li Zhuiyuan finished speaking, he lay back down, closed his eyes and continued to sleep.
Although he had averted A'li's gaze during the day, Chen Lin was unable to show her dark side.
But since Chen Lin could be suppressed by A'li's gaze, no matter how high her level of strength was, it was just that. A guy who wanted to seek revenge on her and wait for an opportunity was not worth Li Zhuiyuan's attention.
With Tan Wenbin and Lin Shuyou handling it, it is more than enough.
When Tan Wenbin was about to leave, Li Zhuiyuan's voice rang out again:
"Brother Binbin, go inform the East Room."
"Okay, I'll go right away."
It wasn't a big deal, but Li Zhuiyuan was worried that the old lady had gotten addicted to the game the last time and was reminiscing about her youth again.
When Tan Wenbin went downstairs, he saw Yin Meng sitting next to a new coffin. Yin Meng was chewing an apple as a sacrifice in her hand. She asked:
"Do you need my help?"
"No, just go to sleep."
"If you need anything, please don't hesitate."
"I've even let you sleep in a coffin. You see, I really don't treat you as an outsider."
"Ah."
Yin Meng leaned back and fell into the coffin.
Tan Wenbin came over and considerately helped her pull up the coffin lid, leaving only a small gap for ventilation.
The person sleeping in the coffin next door is Runsheng.
Tan Wenbin couldn't help but turn his head to check with amusement. It was strange that Runsheng didn't snore today, which was rare.
After a closer look, I found that Runsheng didn't breathe through his nose or mouth at all, but turned to other valves.
Damn it, why haven’t I seen you use this trick before? So you just hit me hard when we were sleeping together, right?
Tan Wenbin walked to the dam, sat on a small bench, and silently lit a cigarette.
The two girls in the west room had already washed up and went to bed, but they were not in a hurry to sleep. Instead, they were whispering to each other.
Tan Wenbin didn't eavesdrop on purpose, but his hearing has improved greatly now, and he can hear even the smallest noises around him.
"Tell the truth, Yunyun, have you really never had that experience?"
"No."
"I don't believe how he could bear it."
"We're not married yet, this isn't good."
"So, you'll help him in other ways?"
"You're here again, Linlin."
"Wow, Yunyun, yours is so big, much bigger than mine. Is it because he touches it so often?"
"Go to sleep! It will not look good if we stay in bed when everyone gets up for breakfast tomorrow."
"Then let me touch it too. I want to get bigger too."
Sitting on the dam, Tan Wenbin took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth. Chen Lin had obviously never eaten pork, but he liked to chase pigs all day long.
Time passes slowly.
The cigarette butt in Tan Wenbin's mouth flickered, contrasting with the countless cigarette butts above his head, as if the stars in the sky had become his smoking buddies, accompanying him to kill the boredom of the night.
There had been no movement in the west room for a long time, only the sound of even breathing. They must have all fallen asleep.
But at this moment, the door of the west room was opened and Chen Lin walked out.
Her luggage had been in the car, and it was Tan Wenbin who helped carry it into the west room.
Chen Lin changed into pajamas. She was no longer wearing the rock-girl outfit she had worn during the day. Instead, she wore a nightgown with a bit of a classical feel and very delicate patterns on it.
This kind of material and needlework is really hard to find on the market.
Tan Wenbin used to see A'li every day, and after a long time, his knowledge of clothing improved. Besides, the old lady would make clothes for him from time to time, so he could be considered a man who had "seen the world".
This dress should have been brought out by Chen Lin from her old house.
She seemed to be sleepwalking now. After she went out, she completely ignored Tan Wenbin who was sitting on the dam. She turned around and walked down the dam barefoot.
Is this, sensing the enemy approaching?
Tan Wenbin did not try to wake her up, but followed her.
The hem of Chen Lin's skirt fell to the ground, as if to decorate her shadow. Under the starlight, her hair fell softly. As she walked on the path in the country, she had a unique artistic beauty.
She was completely different from the Chen Lin in the daytime.
Tan Wenbin even wanted to call Lin Shuyou over to take another look, maybe he would change his mind.
When walking to the village road, Chen Lin slowly spread his hands to both sides, and his whole body seemed to be bathing in the starry night.
On the ring finger of his left hand, there seemed to be a silver ring.
Tan Wenbin took a closer look and found that it was a thimble used to assist in needlework.
A silver-grey light flowed from the ring, wrapping Chen Lin, and then a figure gradually emerged from behind Chen Lin.
The makeup of this figure is even more luxurious, and the soul that emanates from it is also extremely tough and strong.
The figure turned around, and Chen Lin also turned around.
The area around the figure's face was empty, but one could feel the scrutinizing gaze cast upon it. Chen Lin's eyes were open, but he did not show any sign of consciousness, and was obviously still sleepwalking.
Her current state seemed to be between the boundaries of yin and yang, separated from the yang side, but not yet the yin side.
After all, Tan Wenbin is not Brother Xiaoyuan. He can see it now, but he can't analyze it quickly.
The figure pointed at Tan Wenbin, and a faint voice came out:
"You are……"
In the peach forest, the branches swayed slightly, bringing with them a gust of wind.
The wind could have blown very far away, but today it was especially close.
The figure behind Chen Lin was cut in half with a "buzz" sound.
The remaining two parts twisted rapidly and then dissipated.
Chen Lin's body shook, and he fell to his knees, supporting himself on the ground with his hands, blood oozing from the corners of his mouth.
Yesterday afternoon, after a nap, Chen Lin stood on the second-floor balcony of Zhou Yunyun's house and marveled at how clean Nantong was.
When a normal mountain is completely silent, it often means that there is a truly terrifying beast there.
Just a gust of wind blew away her life-saving trump card.
After witnessing all this, Tan Wenbin had a clearer understanding of the strength of the man under the peach forest.
At the same time, there was a deeper fear of Fengdu.
Don't let the situation happen that as soon as we step into Fengdu, the emperor will blow a gust of wind and everyone will be beheaded.
He walked forward and checked Chen Lin's injuries. Her blood and qi were disordered and her breath was very weak. She was seriously injured.
But she was still in a sleepwalking state, and she slowly stood up and continued to walk forward.
This look perfectly portrays the heartbreaking feeling of brokenness and explains what it means to be pitiful.
Tan Wenbin placed his fingers between his eyes, exerted a little force, and blinked his eyes continuously, with a gleam of light seemingly constantly flowing.
He was using Deng Chen's ability to "remember" the scene, and then he could go to any photo studio in town to have the photos developed.
I developed the photos and showed them to Ayou. After meeting the person in person, he needed to submit more photos. This is considered an anomaly in the blind date world.
There’s nothing we can do. Who made Chen Lin’s sense of contrast so strong?
Chen Lin continued to move forward, and Tan Wenbin followed beside him.
There were dull noises coming from the farmland not far ahead.
The enemy should have arrived, and the negotiations should have failed, so the fight officially started.
Tan Wenbin suddenly realized that he had made a mistake, which was to arrange Lin Shuyou to the negotiation position. Apart from fighting, can you still expect to achieve peace?
……
Lin Shuyou followed Brother Bin's instructions and stood in the field waiting silently.
Until an old man with half-white hair and a cane appeared and broke the tranquility that belonged to him alone.
The old man was wearing brightly colored clothes, a black hat, a red jacket, purple pants, and a pair of thick-soled cloth shoes.
Generally in rural areas, only old people who have passed away and are lying in the freezer would wear this kind of attire.
Lin Shuyou took the initiative to step forward and blocked the old man's way.
Seeing this, the old man raised his cane and pointed it at Lin Shuyou.
"You are not from the Chen family. No matter how much good things that girl from the Chen family gives you to protect her, I can give you double the amount. Now, get out of my way."
Lin Shuyou: "This is Nantong."
Old man: “I know.”
Lin Shuyou: "Nantong has its own rules."
Old man: “I know that, too.”
Lin Shuyou: "Then do you know the rules in Nantong..."
Saying the following sentence is equivalent to telling the other party who set the rules under the special environment of Nantong.
With this as a support, the old man will be afraid no matter what, and will most likely bow and leave.
But before Lin Shuyou could finish his next words, his eyelids began to tremble violently.
This is the boy interfering.
Boy: What are you talking about? Just kill him and save the beauty!
Lin Shuyou was caught off guard and was actually taken the initiative by the boy. The boy borrowed Lin Shuyou's body and said:
"Then you know that the rules of Nantong are here. You should understand what you can and cannot do here. You must know that the big man who set these rules may be watching here from above."
Old man: "I came here for revenge, as it should be!
When my son met her by chance, he saw that her fate complemented his own and could increase his life span, so he took the initiative to show his affection to her and wanted to get married, thus creating a beautiful story of a couple who were united in purpose and lived together for a long time.
But not only did she not know what was good for her and rejected my son's kindness, her brother even attacked my son and killed him!
The hatred of killing my son is irreconcilable!"
The old man was so old, how old was his son at that time?
Moreover, words like increasing life span, complementing destiny...when you look closely, these words are actually cruel and bloody.
As for any chance encounter or show of goodwill, I'm afraid they just want to abduct people and take them back.
But when the old man talked about it, he seemed very confident and didn't think there was anything wrong with him at all.
This phenomenon is not uncommon in the underworld. The reason why the underworld advocates morality is because morality in the underworld is actually a luxury.
Most of the time, everyone likes to use fists first and then talk about reason.
Therefore, this truth often becomes strange and unfamiliar, but the person who says this truth sincerely believes that he is right.
Just take a quick taste and you'll know what kind of person this old thing is.
Tongzi discovered that Lin Shuyou gradually gave up the fight for this body, which was a tacit approval or even support for his behavior.
The old man pointed at Lin Shuyou with his cane and asked again:
"I must avenge this vengeance today. I don't care who you are, please get out of my way!"
Lord White Crane:
"roll!"
The old man was extremely angry. He took a deep breath, and his originally hunched body began to expand and solidify as if it were inflated. He swung the cane in his hand, and the wood faded away, revealing the gems inlaid on it.
"In that case, don't blame me..."
"Noisy!"
Lord Baihe smashed down with his two maces.
The old man raised his cane to resist.
"boom!"
The old man stepped back.
"boom!"
The old man continued to retreat.
"boom!"
The old man took several steps back, felt a tightness in his chest, and spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Who are you? Who wants to protect her?"
The boy said nothing and swung his double maces again.
The old man struggled to hold on, but finally he couldn't hold on any longer and was thrown flying. After landing, he stood up shakily with a look of horror on his face.
"Since you want to protect her, it is her good fortune. It means she is not destined to die. For the sake of the senior who set the rules for Nantong, I will let her go today..."
I heard footsteps on the ridge behind me. It was Chen Lin.
Master Baihe raised his fist and smashed it hard on his chest.
"Puff puff!"
After spitting out several mouthfuls of blood, his body trembled and he fell to the ground dejectedly.
In the bottom of his heart, Lin Shuyou’s puzzled voice came: “Boy, what are you doing!”
The boy said nothing, but silently handed the control of his body back to his stupid medium.
Fortunately, the boy's previous punches only caused some blood, which looked scary, but actually did not cause any injuries at all.
However, just as Lin Shuyou was about to stand up and continue beating the old man to death, a soft body hugged and wrapped him up.
Lin Shuyou: Who are you?
At this moment, the sleepwalking confusion in Chen Lin's eyes faded away, revealing his dark side. Not only did he exude the aura of an Onmyoji, but his entire person became extremely gentle.
Lin Shuyou looked at her carefully for a long time before he recognized that she was Chen Lin!
It’s hard to imagine that it’s the same face, but still difficult to recognize.
From Chen Lin's perspective, she didn't know about Tan Wenbin's arrangements, and she didn't even know the special rules in Nantong.
Therefore, in her understanding, it was the old man who was seeking revenge on her. He had used some unknown method to disperse the guardian on her body, leaving her without support and protection while being seriously injured. Lin Shuyou in front of her had just been severely injured by the old man in order to protect herself.
Chen Lin's fingertips gently stroked Lin Shuyou's bloody lips, mist appeared in her eyes, and she cried:
"I have never liked you, and you have never liked me, so why bother risking your life for me now?"
Lin Shuyou: "I don't have any, get out of the way, I can beat him, I can beat him to death!"
Although the old man standing opposite could not understand this scene, he nodded in cooperation.
Chen Lin put her finger against Lin Shuyou's lips, as if she was looking at a stubborn and unyielding young man, with a hint of pity in her eyes.
She took the initiative to stretch out her arms, hugged Lin Shuyou, and murmured, "I know, I know."
Lin Shuyou: "No, you don't know, I'm a very good fighter, that old guy is no match for me!"
Chen Lin loosened his arms, turned to face the old man, and said with a firm look in his eyes:
"Your son was killed by me and my brother. I can go with you today. You can kill him or chop him up as you wish. I just ask you not to hurt any innocent people here!"
