Then he handed it to Lin Zhu and said, "Brother Lin, I accidentally destroyed two manuals. Now only one copy of the Northern Darkness Divine Art remains. Please forgive me, Brother Lin."
"It's alright, it's alright, it's gone, it's gone. Let's just say we weren't meant to be," Lin Zhu said nonchalantly as she took it.
Duan Yu was extremely grateful that Lin Zhu let him go so easily.
Thinking to himself, 'The fairy sister ordered me to kill all the disciples of the Carefree Sect, yet Brother Lin is so kind and benevolent; I absolutely cannot do such an unjust and immoral thing.'
"Thank you for your forgiveness, Brother Lin."
Lin Zhu smiled and decided to let the misunderstanding continue, since he hadn't said he was a disciple of the Xiaoyao Sect anyway.
He stored the first diagram of the Northern Darkness Divine Art and the Lingbo Steps in his storage space.
The messages in the group kept scrolling, but he didn't have time to look at them.
Chapter 14 Tang Bohu's Eight Wives
Having received the goods, Lin Zhu originally intended to take his leave.
Tang Bohu said, “It’s getting late. Why don’t you two stay at my humble abode? Tomorrow we can travel together to Hubei and go to Wuxi to see the sights.”
"Oh, what's going on?" Lin Zhu asked, intrigued.
Duan Yu also looked at Tang Bohu.
Tang Bohu didn't keep them in suspense and said, "It's rumored that the Beggars' Clan is going to hold a Beggars' Clan Conference in Xingzilin to address the matter of their Vice Clan Leader Ma being killed. They have invited many martial arts practitioners, and the conference is scheduled for three days from now."
"Is that the number one gang in the world?" Duan Yu asked, somewhat eager to try.
“Exactly.” Tang Bohu nodded, then looked at Lin Zhu.
Lin Zhu thought for a moment and decided it would be good to witness Qiao Feng's heroic spirit.
As for Ma Dayuan, he should still have died at Bai Shijing's hands. It's just unknown whether Qiao Feng is still Xiao Feng.
North of the Great Zhou Dynasty, there was only the Great Yuan Dynasty, but not the Great Liao Dynasty.
He nodded. "Brother Tang is so kind. If I were to refuse, wouldn't I be being incredibly rude?"
"Haha, thank you for your hospitality, Brother Lin. There's still some time before dinner, how about I treat you to some roasted chicken wings? My roasted chicken wings skills are far superior to my calligraphy and painting."
Duan Yu, the straight man, said, "It is said that among the four great talents of Jiangnan, Tang Yin and Tang Bohu are masters of poetry, calligraphy and painting. I didn't expect that their roasted chicken wings are even more amazing. Then I won't be polite."
Lin Zhu naturally wanted to see for himself.
So the three of them started grilling chicken wings in the yard.
Soon, the fragrance began to spread.
In terms of aroma alone, Lin Zhu felt it was no worse than Huang Rong's.
In the backyard, Tang Bohu's eight wives were playing mahjong and talking, "Our husband has gone to Wuxi, so we'll stay up all night."
"Great! Great!"
But then, the Third Madam Jiu Kong said, "I think I can smell the aroma of my husband's roasted chicken wings."
"Could it be that my husband has returned?" The eldest sister, Lu Zhaorong, paused in her work.
Seeing that she was about to lose, Fifth Madam Ma Fengming pushed the mahjong tiles on the table and said, "Why don't we go outside and see for ourselves?"
Old Six, Li Chuanhong, was furious. "Hey, what are you doing? I'm going to take Hu Shisanyao!"
"Oh dear, I'm so sorry, I got so excited when I heard my husband was coming back," Ma Fengming said, and quickly left, afraid that Li Chuanhong would come after her.
Li Chuanhong was about to chase after him when Lu Zhaorong advised, "Never mind, that's just how Fifth Brother is. Let's go out and take a look first."
The group of eight then left the backyard.
Ma Fengming was the fastest. Following the aroma, he arrived at the central courtyard. The first thing he saw was not roasted chicken wings or Tang Bohu, but Lin Zhu.
He was stunned for a moment, 'Such a pure and otherworldly person exists in this world!'
But then, in a fit of anger, he shouted, "Tang Bohu, you've brought a woman back again!" Then, looking at Duan Yu, he added, "And a man with you too."
Startled by the shout, Tang Bohu's hand trembled, and he put down the chicken wing, saying, "Hey, hey, hey, hey, don't talk nonsense, Brother Lin is a man."
"Really?" Upon hearing this, Ma Fengming looked at Lin Zhu again and had to admit that she was prettier than him. Then, he looked at her like she was an idiot. "I don't believe it. Do you think I'm stupid?"
"What idiot?" Lu Zhaorong led the way, followed by six ladies.
Duan Yu looked at Lin Zhu and asked in a low voice, "Brother Lin, do you know these people?"
Lin Zhu said, "It should be Brother Tang's eight wives. Didn't the gatekeeper say earlier that they were playing mahjong in the backyard?"
Like Ma Fengming, the seven ladies, including Lu Zhaorong, paused for a moment after seeing Lin Zhu before recovering and looking at Tang Bohu with questioning expressions.
They felt extremely threatened by Lin Zhu; their husbands were about to be taken away.
'Sigh!' Lin Zhu sighed inwardly, feeling utterly exhausted.
"No, that's not true. Let me explain." Tang Bohu was also helpless, then looked at Lin Zhu, "Brother Lin, why don't you explain?"
Lin Zhu stood up, cupped his hands and said, "I am Lin Zhu, and I greet all the ladies."
"Are you really a man?" Second Madam Luo Xiuying asked Lin Zhu.
"Genuine, no doubt about it," Lin Zhu said in a rough voice.
“Something’s not right!” Ma Fengming noticed and said, “Your voice is off. Don’t use that rough voice.”
"You can tell from that?" Lin Zhu subconsciously spoke in her natural voice, a neutral voice, leaning towards a child's voice.
Eight pairs of eyes were fixed on Tang Bohu, as if to say, "Let's see how you explain this."
Tang Bohu and Duan Yu both looked at Lin Zhu, their doubts about his gender resurfacing.
“It’s a man, it really is a man,” Lin Zhu explained. “The martial arts I practice are a bit special, it’s just that my appearance and voice are a little different.”
"The Sunflower Manual?" Tang Bohu subconsciously squeezed his legs together, then thought of this supreme martial arts manual, which required castration before one could practice it.
"Get lost! You're the one who practices the Sunflower Manual." Lin Zhu couldn't help but curse, then said, "How about we go to the outhouse and have a contest? Let's see whose little brother is bigger."
These words stunned everyone, and it was easy to understand what 'second brother' meant.
Ma Fengming blushed and said, "Such vulgarity, he must be a man." Then he turned and ran away.
Lu Zhaorong, Luo Xiuying, and the other six also followed.
Tang Bohu had no more doubts, and Duan Yu smiled apologetically.
Immediately afterwards, Tang Bohu asked, "Judging from Brother Lin's voice, he shouldn't be very old."
Duan Yu also looked at Lin Zhu.
There was nothing to hide, so Lin Zhu revealed her age: "I'm fourteen this year."
"Hiss~!" Tang Bohu gasped. A grandmaster at the age of fourteen? Where else in the entire Great Zhou Dynasty, no, in the entire world, could there be one like him?
Duan Yu was not interested in martial arts and did not understand its value.
Lin Zhu said calmly, "It was just some serendipitous encounter; Brother Tang, there's no need to be surprised."
"This adventure must be extraordinary," Tang Bohu exclaimed, unable to recover for a long time.
We ate roasted chicken wings until evening, and then it was time for dinner.
The Tang family was wealthy, and dinner was very lavish.
That night, Lin Zhu was settled into a guest room, then opened the chat group and browsed through the chat history.
I learned that Lin Shiyin was eventually found by Li Jinwen, who begged and pleaded with her to be brought back.
As for betrothing him to Long Xiaoyun, Li Jinwen doesn't dare to mention it now. Lin Shiyin almost severed ties with him as cousins and even ran away from home late at night. How could he dare to do that now?
Then there's Lin Zhu himself; he and Lin Shiyin are currently the most popular people in the chat group.
Huang Rong: Sister Shiyin, what are your plans for the future?
Lin Shiyin: Can Grandma send someone to pick me up? My cousin is still a little worried. @Wu Xingyun
She was still soft-hearted and temporarily forgave Li Jinwen, but only maintained a normal cousin relationship. As for whether to bring up the marriage agreement again, it would depend on Li Jinwen's behavior.
As for asking Wu Xingyun to pick her up, it was because she genuinely wanted to become his disciple.
Wu Xingyun: Okay, I'll send people from the Nine Heavens and Nine Departments to Baoding to pick you up. You just need to wait for a little over a month.
China is vast, and the distance from Tianshan to Baoding is more than tens of thousands of miles. Therefore, the journey takes time.
Chapter 15 Revealing One's Identity
At this moment, Lin Zhu also saw the person who tagged him.
You Ruo: @Chuan Lin Zhu Ye, where are you?
Huang Rong: @Chuanlinzhuye, where are you?
You need to tag me every now and then.
Chuanlin Zhuye (IP Gusu): Still in Gusu.
Huang Rong: You've finally appeared. Tell me, how are you going to make it up to us?
You Ruo: Yes, how are you going to make it up to us? We treated you so well before, giving you money and food.
Wang Yuyan: That's right, you're a bad guy.
Lin Zhu thought for a moment and sent a message:
Chuanlin Zhuye (IP Gusu): Why don't you think about what needs to be done? My current abilities should be able to help. @Huang Rong, @You Ruo, @Wang Yuyan, @Ning Zhongze, @Feng Heng
It was nighttime on the grassland, and Zhao Min saw Lin Zhu acknowledging everyone else but not herself, which made her extremely angry.
Zhao Min: Why don't I have it?
Chuanlin Zhuye (IP Gusu): We have different stances. If you want me to join the Northern Yuan, would I necessarily go?
Ning Zhongze: Well said!
Sheng Yayu: That's exactly right!
Shangguan Haitang: Not bad!
Zhao Min: You Central Plains people are bullying people!
