chills

"Master," Shen Huaiyu asked softly, "What's going on here?"

"I don't know yet." Shen Lin replied flatly, but his eyes kept staring at the person with the Xingyue Pendant they saw earlier.

That person just had a match with He Hongguang.Watching the battle from the sidelines was Mr. He's eldest son, He Jing. He was very satisfied with that man's performance, and sent a servant to hand him a small wooden token.

Is the He family blind?Shen Lin thought.

It is not well known that the people in the Xingyue Pavilion are equipped with Xingyue brilliance pendants, otherwise they would not be so blatantly wearing them.Lu Huaiyuan and Shen Huaiyu learned about this from Jiang Hanyi, while Shen Lin found out after his own investigation.What even Shen Lin could find out, the He family who regarded Xingyue Pavilion as their enemies didn't know?

He Jing had no idea what Shen Lin was thinking in the audience, he was still pleasantly surprised by the talents he had won this time.He patted the man on the shoulder lovingly, and told him to take the small wooden sign to see Shi Shengjian.Seeing this scene, Shen Lin sneered, and said in his heart: "No wonder the He family has been suppressed by Xingyue Pavilion so far. I'm afraid that all those in charge are kept in the dark."

The younger generation of the old man of the He family is really talented.At that time, no one thought that a young boy from the He family created a new school of He family's sword technique. After that, the name of the He family's Lei Liu was passed down like this.When the wind is surging, there are still many such people, and it is these people who jointly created a prosperous world.

Afterwards, Mr. He took over the He family, gave birth to three sons and three daughters, and there were no surprises.As the actual leader of the He family, He Jing has no management skills, and he doesn't even know his own opponents at all.

"That foundation is almost wiped out." Shen Lin thought.

"...Master," Lu Huaiyuan said, "on that person..."

Lu Huaiyuan had good eyesight, as if he saw a cloud of black air flash past.He was very familiar with this kind of black air, because he had seen it once in Shiquan Town before—it was those Jiaojiao.

Shen Lin was thinking about something else, but he was taken aback when he heard Lu Huaiyuan's voice: "What?"

"It's gone already," Lu Huaiyuan said, "Maybe it's because I missed it."

Lu Huaiyuan briefly described to Shen Lin what he saw, and Shen Lin put his fan on his chin and fell into thought.Shen Huaiyu stabbed Lu Huaiyuan: "Are you all right?"

Lu Huaiyuan whispered: "It's okay, what can I do."

On the other side of the ring, a seventeen or eighteen-year-old girl jumped up again.There was a burst of cheers from the audience. From yesterday's competition to now, no girl has been on this ring yet.The girl was dressed in fluttering white clothes, holding a short dagger in her hand.As the saying goes, an inch is long and an inch is strong, and an inch is short and an inch is dangerous. There are very few people who use such a short dagger.Compared with the long knife in He Hongguang's hand, the weapon she was holding was not enough. She was fighting with him with bare hands.

However, He Hongguang changed from his former wooden post-like appearance, showing a rare retreat.

Lu Huaiyuan couldn't help laughing: "He knows how to pity the fragrance and cherish the jade."

Because of He Hongguang's own problems, he only played [-]% of the [-]% level at most, and the girl in white won easily.Everyone watched helplessly as he was called down, while he was scolded by He Jing.

"Poor..." Someone from the audience said lightly.

"Let's go, don't look at other people," Shen Lin said, "Let's find a quiet place and talk about what Huaiyuan saw just now."

The three of them strolled to a secluded rockery.Although the disappearance of the baby in Shiquan Town had been mentioned to Shen Lin in a letter earlier, it was not very detailed, so Shen Huaiyu described to Shen Lin in detail what happened to them that night.

Shen Lin asked: "Are you sure that the beast you saw that night was Jiao Jiao?"

After all, it is a legendary beast. People in the world probably have never seen it. People can only rely on picture books or ghost novels to understand the appearance of Jiao Jiao.However, after so many years, generations of poor scholars have glimpsed those legendary beasts from the works of their predecessors, and then described them according to their own imaginations. Therefore, in the versions circulated in various places, the ancient beasts look different.

"Not sure." Lu Huaiyuan said, "But that monster is definitely a dragon head and a tiger body. Brother also saw it."

Shen Huaiyu nodded.Shen Lin was taken aback when he heard this—a dragon head and a tiger body?

These four words seemed to touch a certain string in Shen Lin's heart, and then he belatedly smacked out a somewhat familiar taste: dragon head and tiger body?How come it seems that I have seen such a thing somewhere?

He tried his best to rummage through his memory, and found out some useful information: "... I remembered, it was my trip to Jiangnan."

Shen Lin always runs out when he has nothing to do, and he doesn't tell others what he is doing, even Zhang Xinglan doesn't know, he is the master of a sect, so he is not good at sitting in the Qingyun sect and teaching disciples, always hiding his name What are you doing running outside?Not to mention that Qing Yunzong has never seen this kind of suzerain before, if you look at the entire land of Kyushu, you may not be able to find a second one.

But Shen Lin ran back and forth, and never came back empty-handed. Every time he returned to Qingyun Mountain, Qiankun must have hidden a lot of things he brought back from various places in his sleeves, such as peacock tail hairs from the Western Regions, and thousands of things from the southern borders. Poison Gu, the nine-layer cake from Fujian, and sometimes a few carriages followed in a mighty manner, piled up with the things they brought back.

Zhang Xinglan helped his forehead countless times, thinking in his heart that his senior brother might really be going on a tour.

Two years ago, Shen Lin went to Jiangnan again. According to the plan, he could go to the next post station to rest before dark, and exchange a horse for the carriage. Unexpectedly, it was the rainy season in Jiangnan at that time, and the lingering drizzle continued day and night. As he descended, the mountain road he was walking on was extremely muddy, which was not conducive to walking.The weather clouds were heavy enough to wring out water, and if they didn't hurry, they might have another storm in the night.

Shen Lin frowned.However, it happened that the house was leaking and it was raining all night. At this time, the old horse that was pulling the carriage slipped and fell down.The coachman checked and found that when the old horse slipped and fell, a sharp stone on the ground scratched it, and its front leg was dripping with blood, and drizzle was constantly washing the wound.

Encountering such a situation outside the wilderness, no matter what, it is impossible to make it to the post station.Shen Lin asked the driver to come to the carriage to hide from the rain, and everyone spent the night together in the carriage.

This night was just as expected, the wind and rain tore the trees beside the road, making loud noises.Shen Lin is a person who cultivates Taoism and seeks immortality, and his five senses are much more sensitive than those around him.He woke up suddenly in the middle of the night, and heard some uninterrupted roaring sounds amidst the rushing rain.
