Chapter Thirty-Eight: Night Talk

The Lin family's mansion was brightly lit, and it was already the time of the blackout, and the crowd of people who were bustling on weekdays was now silent, and they all returned to their own residences, cultivating and resting.

Although it looks calm and quiet, if you look closely, you can still feel that in those dark places, there are faint eyes that are vigilant at all times.

It seems that after the last capture incident, the Lin family's mansion has become a frightened bird, and in order to be precautionary, they have to strengthen their vigilance.

Even so, at this time, there was a figure hurrying forward in a corridor of the Lin family, and the vague gaze was only a glance at it and then hurriedly moved away.

The figure was none other than the Great Elder Lin Xiaotian, who was full of doubts and a little uneasy in his heart at this time.

Just now, he received a message from Lin Haofeng, asking him to go to his residence, saying that he had something important to discuss.

What he doubts and worries about is not that there is something to discuss, but that there is a place to discuss things.

As we all know, in the Lin family, he and Lin Haofeng have always been at odds, so everything is usually discussed in the Lin family chamber.

This kind of private "meeting" like tonight is the first time in the world, which has to make him think wildly.

After thinking about it along the way, he unconsciously arrived at Lin Haofeng's residence, and just when Lin Xiaotian was a little hesitant, Lin Haofeng's faint voice sounded in the house:

"It's the Great Elder, right? The door is not closed, come in. ”

Lin Xiaotian thought about it and pushed the door in, and saw a small farm yard, which was full of all kinds of flowers and plants, and there was no one in the yard at this time.

Of all the rooms in the courtyard, only Lin Haofeng's study was lit and the door was wide open.

With the idea that what has come is safe, Lin Xiaotian strode towards the study.

In the study, Lin Haofeng sat on a wooden chair, drinking tea with a teacup in his hand, and after seeing Lin Xiaotian come in, he slowly put the teacup on the tea table, pointed to a wooden chair next to him and said:

"The Great Elder is here, come on, come on, please sit down and taste my newly acquired tea. ”

Looking at Lin Haofeng, who was full of enthusiasm, and then looking at the tea that was still steaming, Lin Xiaotian was even more puzzled.

On the way here, he imagined countless scenes of conversation, but this picture really didn't let him imagine.

Although he was thinking so crankily in his heart, he still walked to the wooden chair and sat down very honestly, glanced at Lin Haofeng, and after not finding anything wrong, he picked up the teacup, opened the lid of the teacup, blew lightly, and took a sip.

Lin Xiaotian only felt that the tea tasted fragrant and rich, and there was a feeling of sweetness after drinking, which was extremely comfortable.

"This is Biluochun?"

Lin Xiaotian exclaimed, but when he finished speaking, he regretted it a little.

"Oh, has the Great Elder drunk this tea?" Lin Haofeng said casually as he blew lightly into the teacup.

"I had the pleasure of drinking it once at the Hyacinth Pavilion. Lin Xiaotian breathed a sigh of relief, regained his original expression, and said calmly.

He knew that Lin Haofeng must have investigated something, but he still chose to believe in the signboard of Hyacinth, and they did an excellent job of keeping secrets very well. He can't afford to mess with himself until it's decided.

He has nothing to shy away from going to the Hyacinth Pavilion, and everyone has been there in order to get all kinds of news.

"Really, it seems that the news provided by the Great Elder to the Hyacinth Pavilion is quite valuable, and he actually asked him to take out Biluochun to entertain guests. Lin Haofeng stared sideways at Lin Xiaotian, smiling.

"It's nothing, it's just some cultivation resources, but you, the patriarch, don't know how precious the information provided is, and even Biluochun can bring it out. Lin Xiaotian had already thought about this question, so he replied directly.

"It's nothing, it's just some cultivation resources. Lin Haofeng also replied in the same way as Lin Xiaotian.

For each other's answers, both sides secretly scolded each other in their hearts as "old foxes". In this way, Lin Haofeng followed Lin Xiaotian and the two of them talked without a word.

As for what he wanted to talk about tonight, Lin Xiaotian didn't ask, and Lin Haofeng didn't say a word.

After drinking the tea, Lin Xiaotian couldn't sit still, and finally asked: "I don't know why the patriarch called the old man over so late?

Lin Haofeng finally couldn't help it when he heard that Lin Xiaotian finally couldn't help it, but he still said seriously: "This time I called the Great Elder to come and tell you about the last time the mysterious person captured people. ”

"Oh? Could it be that the patriarch has secretly found some clues, let's hear it, I'm very curious, who is so bold and dares to insult my Lin family so much. Lin Xiaotian was shocked, and at the same time said a little angrily.

Seeing Lin Xiaotian's appearance, Lin Haofeng was a little suspicious in his heart, but he still replied: "I don't have many eyebrows, I just think this matter is a bit of a coincidence." ”

"How is it coincidental?" Lin Xiaotian said with interest.

"On the day of the incident, it happened that I waited for the senior leaders of the Lin family to go to the town lord's mansion to discuss matters, and as the only one of the great elders in the left-behind clan, you had something to leave, I don't know where the great elder went?" Lin Haofeng said here, his eyes looked at Lin Xiaotian, flashing a little cold.

Hearing Lin Haofeng say this, Lin Xiaotian suddenly stood up from the wooden chair, and said with an angry face: "What's the matter?

"It's not enough to be suspicious, but I just think that this matter is too coincidental, if the Great Elder doesn't explain a thing or two, it is not a matter of doubt. Lin Haofeng said expressionlessly, ignoring the angry Lin Xiaotian.

Feeling Lin Haofeng's hard attitude at this time, Lin Xiaotian's heart fluctuated and he slowly sat down. sighed and said: "If it was really me who did it, how could I be able to do it for Yu'er, you also know how much effort I put into cultivating Yu'er." ”

"Hmph, who knows if this is your bitter ploy?" Lin Haofeng snorted coldly, a little disbelieving.

"Even if it is, who doesn't know that extracting exquisite blood is a taboo in the empire, if it is discovered, but it will be hunted down and killed by the strong people of the whole empire without beginning and end, what am I trying to do? Is it just to get rid of Lin Yuxing? Lin Xiaotian hurriedly explained.

"You've finally admitted that you want to get rid of Xing'er. Lin Haofeng frowned, and his eyes looked at Lin Xiaotian with a cold light.

"There's nothing wrong with admitting this. Lin Xiaotian said directly.

"Why?"

"Why? This is going to ask you, the head of the clan, and see what you have done? Lin Yuxing is an outsider, but look at it, what kind of treatment did he enjoy in the clan before? That is the treatment of the young master of the Lin family. Do you know how it was spread outside? It is said that the Lin family has no successor, and an outsider who has no clue is wanted to be the young master. ”

Lin Xiaotian stood up a little excitedly, kept walking around the room, and kept stating some facts to Lin Haofeng.

"It's just some gossip, when did I say that Lin Yuxing should be the young master of the Lin family? Besides, what do I want to do, and I want others to tell me. Regarding these rumors, Lin Haofeng was unmoved, and said expressionlessly.

"You don't care, as the patriarch of the Lin family, your words and deeds represent the future direction of the Lin family, and now that you are constantly favoring an outsider, what will the other clansmen think?"

Hearing Lin Xiaotian say this, Lin Haofeng's face softened, and he said a little unnaturally: "I know all this, but I have never wanted to train Xing'er as a successor before." ”

"What about now? In the past, he didn't know anything, but now he has opened eight tricks in one night, and his qualifications are the best in the Lin family. Lin Xiaotian put his hands behind his back, stared at Lin Haofeng and asked.

Lin Haofeng didn't speak, as if he had acquiesced to some facts.

Seeing Lin Haofeng's appearance, Lin Xiaotian already understood, but he still said without giving up: "You have to think clearly, he is not from the Lin family, and what flows in his heart is not the blood of the Lin family. ”

"He is my son, even if he is not the blood of the Lin family in his heart, as long as he is good enough, besides, the young master of the Lin family looks at cultivation, as long as he is a member of the Lin family, he has a chance. ”

"That's what you said. Lin Xiaotian knew that no matter what he said, Lin Haofeng wouldn't listen, and was about to leave with his sleeves up.

"Wait!" Lin Haofeng said to stop

"What else is the matter with the patriarch?" Lin Xiaotian stopped in response and asked with some puzzlement.

"I hope that the disputes between the young masters will arise in a fair situation, and not control people as they do now. ”

"What do you mean?" Lin Xiaotian was even more puzzled, not knowing what Lin Haofeng wanted to say.

"Could it be that Xing'er just disappeared and has nothing to do with you?" Lin Haofeng was asked by Lin Xiaotian like this, and he was a little stunned in his heart.

"Lin Yuxing is missing?" Lin Xiaotian was shocked, but as if he had thought of something, he said: "It seems that the patriarch wants to talk to me tonight about this time, right?" However, in any case, I, Lin Xiaotian, do things alone, but if I didn't do it, I wouldn't admit it." ”

Looking at Lin Xiaotian's departing back, Lin Haofeng fell into contemplation again.

"It doesn't look like it's really you, so who is it?"
