Three more days passed in the blink of an eye.

That day I was practicing martial arts with the monkeys in the yard, and someone knocked on the door.

The monkey flicked his wrist and quickly put the rope dart into his sleeves. He shouted loudly:

"Who?"

"It's me, Xu Yin. I have something urgent to ask Ding Lin."

Xu Yin's voice came over.

The monkey and I looked at each other and saw the surprise in each other's eyes.

Because of what happened last time, Xu Yin was very dissatisfied with us. We thought she would never have contact with us again, but we didn't expect that she would come to see us so soon.

From her tone, it seemed like she was really anxious.

I nodded to the monkey, who walked towards the door and asked:

"What's the emergency?"

Xu Yin came in, looking very uncomfortable, and she quickly urged Monkey to close the door.

Seeing her like this, I was happy and said with a smile:

"Xu Yin, what are you doing? Someone is chasing you?"

Xu Yin looked solemn and said:

"Ding Lin, people from Baigui Pavilion are coming to Longjiang City."

Hearing this, the monkey's expression changed.

A strange color flashed in my eyes, and I smiled and said:

"Longjiang City belongs to the big guys. They can come when they come. Is there anything strange about this?"

Xu Yin said hurriedly:

"I received news that they are here to avenge Fang He."

I nodded, my expression still calm.

Monkey frowned and looked at Xu Yin, the meaning in his eyes was somewhat intriguing.

Seeing the monkey's expression, Xu Yin said angrily:

"What's that look in your eyes? Are you suspecting that I've snitched to Baigui Pavilion?"

"I'm telling you, I didn't say that!"

"If I had done it, I wouldn't have come to inform you."

I waved my hand to the monkey and said:

"Monkey, she was under my oath spell. She didn't dare to betray her oath."

I smiled again and said to Xu Yin:

"Please come in, let's sit down and talk."

Xu Yin hummed to me:

"Ding Lin, your brother is really sincere to you."

I laughed and said:

"How else can we be brothers?"

When they arrived at home, the guests of honor sat down, and the monkey went to guard the door.

I took a sip of tea and asked:

"Xu Yin, tell me what's going on."

"Several masters from Baigui Pavilion came to Longjiang City last night. They came to avenge Fang He."

"After receiving the news, I immediately took a peek. They don't have a clear target yet and are searching in Longjiang City."

"The place they are searching for is not far from here. They should be able to get here the day after tomorrow."

Xu Yin quickly told what she knew.

I smiled and said:

"They don't know who the murderer is, so just let them find it. I don't believe they can find me and the monkey."

Xu Yin shook his head and said in a deep voice:

"Don't be careless, they are all masters of Baigui Pavilion."

"Only the devil knows if they have any secret skills. We have to be on guard. It would be terrible if we find them."

"They are coming with great momentum and they will definitely not give up."

I nodded and asked:

"A Fang He is worthy of such a big fight from Baigui Pavilion. Could it be that Fang He has a different status in Baigui Pavilion?"

This matter is obvious. If Fang He was an ordinary disciple, Baigui Pavilion would not be so aggressive.

Xu Yin shook her head, she hadn't found out about this yet.

I said:

"Xu Yin, thank you for coming to report. Monkey and I will pay attention."

Xu Yin waved his hands and sighed:

"If it weren't for me, you wouldn't have gone against Fang He. In the final analysis, this matter was caused by me."

After a while, Xu Yin looked at me and said:

"Ding Lin, why don't you and your brother go out for a while and come back after Baigui Pavilion leaves."

I burst out laughing:

"Why should I avoid the limelight? Fang He's death has nothing to do with me."

"This is my home, I'm not going anywhere."

Seeing my firm attitude, Xu Yin stopped trying to persuade me.

When Xu Yin was about to leave, her phone rang.

When she answered the phone, her face suddenly turned ugly.

After hanging up the phone, she said to me solemnly:

"People from Baigui Pavilion went to my house, and they wanted to see me."

I said:

"You are one of the four city gods of Longjiang City. It is normal for them to look for you. You should go back."

"You are from the Chenghuang Mansion, they will not touch you."

Xu Yin quickly walked outside and said as he walked:

"Ding Lin, please give me a call. I will notify you of the latest news as soon as possible."

After Xu Yin left, the monkey came over and said in a deep voice:

"Lao Lin, are we stirring up a hornet's nest?"

I chuckled and said:

"It's not like you're stirring up a hornet's nest. I'm here, so there's no need to panic."

Although this incident surprised me, it didn't panic me yet.

Let's wait until Baigui Pavilion comes to find him. If possible, just do it. Who is afraid of whom?

The monkey and I continued training.

I have dragon vein branches at home, and I can’t use them all by myself, so I gave some to the monkeys.

Although monkeys cannot practice Taoism, they can use this method to improve their physical condition, and it is also of infinite use to them.

An hour later, Xu Yin called.

She said quickly:

"Ding Lin, people from Baigui Pavilion contacted me just now and asked me about Fang He's murder."

"There are five of them here in total, three men and two women. The strongest among them is a first-level Xuan-level mage, the rest are yellow-level mages, and the weakest one is an eighth-level yellow-level mage."

I frowned.

I'm not afraid of yellow-level mage. Even if it's a tenth-level yellow-level mage, even if I can't defeat it, I can still run away.

But Xuanjie Mage is more difficult. If I encounter him, there will definitely be no hope of escape.

"They said that a few days ago, Fang He's sister became the concubine of an elder from Baigui Pavilion. His sister was very angry about Fang He's death, so she sent people to Longjiang City to find the murderer."

Xu Yin continued.

I said:

"Xu Yin, thank you, I understand."

Xu Yin reminded again:

"Ding Lin, that group is determined to find the murderer, so you must pay attention."

"Lao Lin, what should we do next?"

asked the monkey.

I was silent for a while, then smiled and said:

"Just do what you have to do. When the soldiers come, the water will come and the earth will cover it up."

This matter is indeed a threat to me, but it is impossible for me to abandon this place and escape.

There are dragon vein branches under this house, which are of infinite use to my practice. It is impossible for me to leave here.

Moreover, my current practice emphasizes bravery and diligence, which makes me shrink back. That greatly affects my Tao foundation. How could I do such a thing.

Of course, even if we don't retreat, we still have some preparations to take precautions.

The guys from Hyakki Pavilion were faster than I expected, and they came the next day.

The monkey asked in a deep voice:

"Who are you? What's the matter?"

The five people from Baigui Pavilion are here, with gloomy faces and cold and evil auras.

One of the women said with a smile:

"We heard that there is a profound mage living here. We have something to ask the mage for help."

The monkey said solemnly:

"The Master is not free today, please come back another day."

A man had a gloomy face and snorted coldly:

"Is he not free, or is he too guilty to see us?"

Faced with this aggressive momentum, the monkey's eyes were filled with anger.

I shouted in the house:

"Monkey, let them in."

The monkey glanced at a few people, snorted coldly, and opened the door.

Those people looked at the monkey with very unkind eyes, and some had murderous intent flashing in their eyes.
