Chapter 129 – Escape

The last time we met, Ling Zhang was still soaking in the water, his dark blue skirt blooming in the water, like a dark blue poisonous flower.

Even though he landed now, there was no luxury such as fine wine and fruit plate on the small table at hand, only a cup of tea, but the bitter smell from the steaming tea still couldn't wash away the frivolous breath, and he was dressed like a peacock. Lan also wears a Chinese dress with dark patterns, I really don't know why this one chooses such a striking one to wear among thousands of colors.

Huo Lian's eyes really hurt after looking at this gorgeous and weird costume in front of him.The cup of tea was picked up and put down by him several times, but in the end he didn't take a sip. He could only smell the bitterness mixed with the hot air, and he already felt his stomach was convulsing constantly.

"I'll leave that matter alone. I don't have much time, so I'll be leaving first." At the same time as Huo Lian said his goodbyes, his footsteps had already moved to one side, which showed that he didn't want to stay for more than a minute.

"Lord Huolian, there is no need to repeat the explanation. Since that person has come to entrust him personally, as far as I am concerned, I will not shirk even in the face of a mountain of swords and seas of fire." Ling Zhang's set of phrases casually, I really can't find the slightest bit Credibility, "Mountains of swords and seas of fire" and other lines that are like stage plays can only be listened to, and fools will take it seriously.

However, Ling Zhang's subconscious actions are worthy of careful scrutiny - he put a letter that had been opened and read in his breast pocket, but his hand was subconsciously rubbing back and forth on the pocket, unable to move away.

Huo Lian frowned slightly.Recalling the scene before he was about to bid farewell to Ling Wen——

At that time, Huo Lian had just put away the Paradise Order, but Ling Wen, who had been lying on the sick bed for a long time, suddenly struggled to get up.

It should be to take care of his physical condition. The indoor furniture placement is carefully designed. A bed leaning against the cave wall, ordinary storage cabinets and important hidden compartments are all excavated from rocks, which is easy to move. You can get it as soon as you reach out.And the desk that acts as a desk is only about one meter away from the edge of the bed, and with a larger step, it can be easily crossed over.

However, such a short section almost cost Ling Wen his life.

Long-term illness and torture made Ling Wen skinny and thin, and thin single clothes were draped over his body, but his body bones seemed to be unable to bear even this weight.However, compared to the bony upper body, Ling Wen's legs are even more thin and frighteningly thin. Looking at them, Huo Lian thought he saw two empty trouser legs.

"What are you going to do? Are you crazy?" Huo Lian was terrified by the movement, and quickly reached out to help him.It was also fortunate that he made a timely move, otherwise Ling Wen would have fallen to the ground.Others may just suffer a little when they fall, but if this one really falls, all the bones in his body will be broken.

Ling Wen borrowed strength from Huo Lian's arm, and finally moved to the desk and sat down.Spread out the paper, pick up the pen, and then explain, "Ling Zhang looks like a fool, but his temper is more stubborn than anyone else. After so many years, he has not been able to smooth his edges and corners. If he is needed to help, Huo Lian Just a few words from an adult probably won’t do much.”

Huo Lian sneered in his heart - help?He almost killed me last time.

However, what's the deal with the title "Ling Zhang's child"?Huo Lian thought his ears were quite normal, but he could hear helplessness and a touch of pampering from those few words.

"I'll write a letter and trouble Mr. Huo Lian to bring it to Ling Zhang. He will still sell me this face."

Huo Lian didn't read what Ling Wen wrote in the letter out of respect for other people's privacy.Even though the opening of the envelope was only symbolically folded and not really sealed, Huolian still didn't mean to open it.No matter what, Ling Wen still showed a full sense of trust in him, just because of this point, Huo Lian had to be polite.

Of course, Ling Zhang, who was not at the scene, must have never seen Ling Wen's state when he wrote the letter, and it was impossible for him to know how much energy the letter had consumed the latter.

But judging from the results, Ling Zhang still showed an attitude of cherishing and cherishing such a thin letter paper.After reading it, he not only folded the letter paper according to the original creases, but also put it in his coat pocket properly.

Finding that Huo Lian's frown was filled with thought, Ling Zhang tilted his head, "Why, Lord Huo Lian doesn't believe my promise?"

If the answer is truthful, Huo Lian really doesn't believe it.Ling Zhang has a dark criminal record, and no one can have a sense of trust in him.

"It's the first time I've received a letter from him in so many years. It's all thanks to Master Huo Lian. Just because of this, I can't just stand by." Ling Zhang explained in a soft voice. , but this person is born with such a frivolous appearance, it is really impossible to win people's trust with a few words.He probably realized this himself, and smiled self-deprecatingly, "If I say that, Master Huo Lian will definitely not believe it."

Huo Lian didn't say a word, it was a tacit agreement.

"So, according to what I said before, how about we treat this matter as a transaction? Both parties get what they need. As long as it is to achieve their own goals, I will do my best."

When Ling Zhang made the same request before, Huo Lian had already expressed his refusal, and less than half an hour had passed. Of course, Huo Lian couldn't change his mind so quickly, and he still insisted on his own opinion. "Where Ling Wen will go in the future must be decided by himself. I can't make this decision for him. Besides——"

Besides, Ling Wen's life is probably running out.This sentence was too hurtful to say, Huo Lian shook his head and stopped it in time.

It's not that Ling Zhang doesn't understand the other party's unfinished words, but he still doesn't care—maybe he has been paying attention to and caring about similar things for too long. shell.

"I didn't force Lord Huo Lian to take him out of the cave. I just hope that after this matter is over, Lord Huo Lian can personally lift the 'restriction' on him." Ling Zhang still tilted his head. Starting from Ling Wen who was forced to stay in bed, his bones are of course very strong, but it's a pity that he just doesn't want to use more strength to support him. "Why, seeing that he has few days left to live, are you going to force him to devote himself to the whole clan of monster beasts?"

Huo Lian seemed to hear some other meaning from it, as if the furry tail of some small animal flicked in his heart slightly, with a whizzing, but then it didn't leave any traces, making him want to investigate further. There is no way to start.

Huo Lian's expectations were not bad before, this Ling Zhang does know a lot of secret things.It's a pity that this person's temperament is too bad, he never sincerely reminds anything, even if it's just pretending, he refuses to the point.Just like the last time I mentioned Shinto and monsters and gods, Ling Zhang didn't do it to explain people's doubts at all, he only wanted to keep adding trouble.

In view of the experience he gained from dealing with this person, Huo Lian knew very well that even if he was willing to be ashamed to ask, Ling Zhang would still not give any decent explanation, but would give him another bargaining chip for coercion, so it is better not to ask.

The only thing that can be mentioned is the part that is directly related to Ling Wen. From Ling Zhang's attitude, it can be inferred that he will become extraordinarily serious and honest about this. "Restriction? Could it be that Ling Wen was forced to stay in the cave all year round?"

Huo Lian's chest was pinched gently, even though Ling Wen had only met him a few times, not even a friendship, but he was still touched with compassion.

He first thought of the row of low and cramped cells in the cave, and then thought of the spacious but oppressive room Ling Wen was in, and he couldn't tell which one was more tragic.

If it's the prison term, there's always a limit, and you're going to work hard, and once it's over, you can finally see the light of day again.But Ling Wen was different, day after day, year after year, he didn't have the slightest expectation in his heart, except that the time of lethargy continued to prolong, there was almost no difference between his future and the past.And the long lifespan of monsters, speaking of it, only made the pain worse.

Huo Lian thought about it carefully, and then said solemnly, "I understand what you mean. After I've been busy for a while, I will go and persuade Ling Wen not to keep his mission. But in the end, whether he is willing to leave the cave can only be determined by He chooses for himself."

The conversation with Ling Zhang was a joy for the host and guest. Before that, Huo Lian himself did not expect it to be so smooth.After all, Ling Wen's letter played a crucial role.This result is of course a good thing for Huo Lian, he can start the next step without any worries.

Since the moment when the signs of the hunting season appeared, Huo Lian hadn't had a smooth day, and finally saw a ray of dawn today.However, his happiness didn't last long at all. The moment he stepped onto the divine way, he had already encountered a big trouble waiting here for a long time.

The tall and mighty statues of monster warriors lined up along the Shinto. Even though it was not the first time Huo Lian had seen this scene, he was still deeply shocked.However, he didn't know the change of mood or the reason, Huo Lian felt desolate inexplicably.

There was a thin shadow in front of a statue, she was too small, even if she didn't try to avoid it, most of her body was still swallowed up by the shadow of the statue.

Huo Lian squinted his eyes for a while before he barely recognized it, "Luo Ying?"

Actually speaking, Luo Ying is still very afraid of facing the fire.As the direct executor of the last "kidnapping case", she was afraid that Huo Lian would ask about the ins and outs of the incident.Moreover, the reason why Luo Ying was able to approach Huolian smoothly was largely due to her sympathy and immature sense of responsibility.Looking back on what she did, it was impossible for Luo Ying not to feel guilty.

She stood here for a long time, waiting for Huo Lian to show up, but the moment the other party really appeared in front of her eyes, she suddenly overturned all the manuscripts she had typed earlier, and couldn't make any words.

It was Huo Lian who broke the silence first, "I listened to Lou Che's arrangement. He called you back to Paradise Island in an emergency, just to take his place temporarily. The time is coming. If you don't prepare, what are you doing here?"

It doesn't matter if you don't mention Lou Che, Luo Ying is even more afraid to speak when you mention Luo Ying.Although Huo Lian himself didn't mean this, Luo Ying, who was "guilty as a thief", always felt that the other party was secretly condemning the various actions she had done under Lou Che's behest.

Huo Lian finally became impatient, "If you have something to do, tell me quickly. If you don't have anything to do, do what you need to do quickly."

If you describe it in detail, Huo Lian's tone is still calm, without the slightest hint of domineering.I don't know if it's because he's been busy with various arrangements recently, and he's used to giving orders, so there is always a slight order unconsciously between the lines.

In the past, Luo Ying never believed that Huo Lianzhen had anything to do with the king of monsters, but this distrust suddenly disappeared at this moment.

Under the order, Luo Ying no longer had any intention of hiding anything, and cut straight to the point, "Master Huolian, before I came to Paradise Island, I had been lurking around the periphery of the Demon Committee to find out the news, and the nails we buried in it were delivered in due course." Very important information came. The most important one is about...Mr. Bai."

Huo Lian's mind turned in a circle, and only then did he connect "Mr. Bai" and "Bai Xinyue".

It's not to blame for Huo Lian's slow reaction, except for the occasional heartstring fluctuation, he is already trying to restrain himself from thinking about that man, at least at this juncture, thinking too much is unintentional.Even the name Bai Xinyue has been deliberately driven into the corner of the sea of ​​consciousness by him, let alone such a polite title as Mr. Bai?

If Huo Lian had to choose by himself, he would rather call him... the hateful man with glasses.

"You don't need to report yet. Let's talk about what's going on after today's matter is over." In fact, Luo Ying hasn't really opened her mouth yet. She just raised a topic, but it has been resolutely snuffed out by Huo Lian.If it comes to the reason, Huo Lian probably can't tell how ugly Yinmao is, but at this moment he seems to have a bad premonition, so he chooses to avoid it without hesitation.

Escaping is not the way, but sometimes if you can't take a step back, all the way forward will be completely blocked, and you will never be able to move forward.

Huo Lian swept Luo Ying from the beginning to the end, "Hurry up and change your clothes. Ling Wen prepared the most formal dress for the four of us for the sacrifice of monsters. It is said that it was carefully preserved thousands of years ago. It must be extremely gorgeous." .”

Luo Ying really didn't understand what was going on in this lord's mind, and what juncture had he reached?He is actually still planning an orthodox monster sacrifice, and regards it as the key to future victory and the monster's foothold in the world.

Although she hasn't figured out how to comfort her, she couldn't help but open her mouth first, "Lord Huolian—"

The one who was called didn't understand anything, but deliberately misinterpreted Luo Ying's meaning.First he sighed pretentiously, and then said in a tone full of regret, "I understand what you mean, it is indeed very hasty and hasty to hold sacrifices under the current conditions on the island, but the current situation is like this. Right. This time the sacrifice is probably the poorest in the history of monsters, but it is related to the life and death of our whole family."

The author has something to say:

The poor stupid author became an overtime dog, leaving early and returning late every day. Only after returning could he be able to update the code and burst into tears. . .
