Durin's Diary

Chapter 862 No Return

"How did you think of meeting us old brothers here today?"

Facing the doubts and confusion of his old friends, Luo Laowu of Tianshi Mansion looked at the old brothers sitting around him and said: "Because there are so many people here, understand?"

"Is there something wrong with your bald head? You tell me here that it's because there are so many people and there are so many eyes. Don't you understand?" An old friend looked surprised.

"Yes, because there are so many people here, everyone will come to gamble, so no one will notice us here. But if we were to show up together somewhere else today, do you think the homing swallows of the inner guard would record our time together?" Luo Laowu said this, glancing at his old friends. "We are all from the Tianshi Mansion. Let me tell you, my grandson from the Candle Dragon Pavilion was very excited when he came back today. He said that a Candle Dragon from the Western Continent had come to the Candle Dragon Pavilion. He is very awesome and very powerful."

"Ah, the Candle Dragon from the Western Continent." The old friends sitting around were all stunned. Someone expressed confusion: "Didn't they say that the last Candle Dragon bloodline in the Western Continent was killed by the great demon under the seat of the alien god?"

"Yes, this is not a secret. How come there is a Candle Dragon in the West Continent?"

"You have forgotten that there was a little girl in Prime Minister Mo's family who turned into a candle dragon when she was in her twenties. She later went to the Western Continent." Old King Luo stopped here as he looked at the crowd.

"Are you telling a story? How can you stop at this critical moment? Keep talking!" Someone was anxious.

"Why are you so anxious? Think about it, the Mo family didn't recognize this child, but the old master is said to have recognized him."

Luo Laowu's words made all the old friends present gasp.

"No, buddy, can you recognize this child? If he recognizes his ancestors, won't the people who hurt that girl in the past be unable to sleep?"

"How can you be so vulgar?"

"How can this be called vulgar? This is clearly the voice of the people, simple and full of affection."

"Fuck you."

The old men finished their brief chat and all looked at Luo Laowu: "So, how strong is this kid?"

"The divine craftsman laid the foundation, and he's said to be incredibly powerful. He even wielded the Thousand Moon Sword. It's said that when he was fighting the Great Demon, it broke, and he fixed it right in front of everyone in the Candle Dragon Pavilion. And when a Mo family kid tried to grab his mace and hit his foot, it shattered the bone."

The old men gasped again.

"If I can tear off my old face, can I ask the old master to let his descendants cut my grandson with a knife?" said an old man.

"I think it should be fine with your face, but your wine..." "It can be done, the wine in my house is my wine."

"anything else."

Some people were talking to each other, and some asked Luo Laowu: "Is there any other news? For example, does our old emperor want to marry his granddaughter again?"

"You hit the point. When my child came back, he said that Master Du Lin went to meet the emperor early the next morning, and Eunuch Hu came to pick him up in person." Luo Laowu described it vividly.

The old friend sitting opposite him frowned and said, "Look, that little Candle Dragon brought in by the fat boy from the Sun family, the one wearing the big black coat from the Garment Bureau."

The old man next to him turned his head and said, "Let me take a look."

………………

Du Lin followed Fatty Sun through the gate and into the hall. The only feeling he had was that there were too many people.

Compared with the mahjong hall in Xilu, it is really like a small temple with strong demons and a shallow pond with many turtles - look at the mahjong tables here, thousands of them, and they are all playing mahjong at this time.

"There are so many people." Melinda couldn't help but sigh.

Hearing Du Lin's rabbit spirit say this in Chang Tang dialect, the fat man puffed out his chest with pride. "Our annual Tianshanglai Cup Mahjong Grand Prix is ​​being held. My mother is in charge of this area. If you want to play mahjong, there is a VIP area on the second floor."

To be honest, Du Lin felt a little itchy, but as the illegitimate son of the goddess of luck and the goddess's luckiest darling, Du Lin felt that if he went up to fight, he would be bullying: "Do you want to go and have some fun?" "You can give it a try." Melinda nodded.

"Okay." Du Lin was about to take his rabbit spirit to the second floor when he heard a scream from the rest area nearby.

He looked over to hear the noise and discovered that it came from a table of old men.

Some of these old men slumped headfirst into the soup bowl and lay motionless, some slumped in their chairs bleeding profusely, and some had crooked mouths and squinting eyes, as if they had suffered a stroke.

The worst-off one was a bald guy, bleeding from all seven orifices.

Du Lin sighed and looked at Yu Chengjun: "Do you see it now?"

The two young men were stunned. Xiao Qi looked at his friend and asked, "Why is your nose bleeding the only one?"

"How should I know? I thought someone like me had already suffered a loss. How could those old masters be in such a miserable state!" Yu Chengjun looked puzzled. The shock on his face was not fake - he was really scared.

"Judging from the face, the more advanced your Taoism is, the more disadvantages you will suffer, because the more advanced your Taoism is, the more horrors you can see that young people like you cannot see." The voice of an old man came from the side, answering the questions and doubts of the young couple in front of them.

Du Lin smiled at the old man and handed him a bag of fruit. "Prime Minister Lin, I'll leave them to you."

"Mr. Du Lin, you are so dedicated to public service. I thank you on their behalf." The old prime minister smiled as he accepted the fruit. "My old friend invited me over to play cards today. Life is full of surprises. I already know about your efforts to help the Armaments Bureau today. I'd like to invite you to my house for a meal some other day. Please don't neglect my kindness."

"How could that be? I will naturally come to the Prime Minister's dinner. Now if you have nothing else to do, I will accompany my wife to the second floor to play."

"Of course it's okay, take care, young sir." Lin Xiangguo extended his hand to invite him.

"Then I'll leave first. Please go in, Prime Minister Lin." Du Lin returned the greeting with a smile.

When Fatty Sun took Du Lin away, his legs were shaking. He looked at Du Lin as if he was re-examining him - if Du Lin was a powerful dragon crossing the river before, then now this dragon is a local fierce dragon.

"Do you know Prime Minister Lin?" he asked.

"I met him in the court. My grandfather introduced him to me. Also present at the time were Yan Zhenqing, Zhang Mengping, Prime Minister Luo, and Prime Minister Liu."

The fat man gasped.

"It's okay, I'm just your guest now, let's go to the second floor."

So the fat man obediently took Du Lin up the stairs.

No one said a word along the way, as if Du Lin was holding onto air.

This made Du Lin sigh - you see, as long as the strength is there, any deformity can be ignored.

All the problems in this world ultimately stem from the worship and desire for power.

It was like this before and it will be like this in the future.

The world was like this before, the world is like this now, and I believe the world will be like this in the future... too.

Reincarnation has devoured countless lives, but greed is eternal and has no end.

Because of this, desire never ceases and struggle never ends.
