Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Journey
For any fast food restaurant, the busiest time period is estimated to be noon every day, no matter how far your store opens, there will be many diners who are either full of interest or seeking to eat their stomachs to step into the door, and after the end of the busy time at noon, even Jiang Qi, as the owner, is quite tired to rest at the counter.
On the contrary, it was Lin Shujian, after cooking a full noon meal, and he was busy with the spare ingredients that might come to the customers at night, and he did it very meticulously, and his serious expression was like carving the artistic jade in his hands in Jiang Qi's eyes.
Although Lin Shujian has always been serious about doing things, his recent state has given Jiang Qi a very strange feeling, as if he has begun to enjoy the whole life, and he has a strong love for everything he does.
"Shujian, don't you want to take a break, I'm tired of watching you after working for so long. ”
"It's okay, I'm not tired. Lin Shujian heard Jiang Qi's question, he turned his head sideways and smiled, but the work in his hand did not stop.
He understood the change in the feeling he was bringing to Jiang Qi now, but he couldn't stop the movements in his hand, he had to do something to make his more and more sensitive and empty thinking nerves not to think of the nine tilts who had left, and he had to have enough things to complete so that he wouldn't face the fact that he had awakened his spiritual power.
"Ding-dong, welcome!"
The induction bell rang at the door, interrupting Jiang Qi's desire to continue questioning, attracting his attention because a guest had arrived.
"A set meal for four will be delivered to the innermost table later. A handsome middle-aged man with sunglasses walked to the counter, but Jiang Qi felt an inexplicable force majeure in his peaceful language, making him personally turn around and pass through the glass behind him after finishing the account and tell Lin Shujian in the kitchen.
"Two more cups of strawberry sundaes. Another young man standing behind the man in sunglasses suddenly spoke, and after raising his eyebrows and signaling that the man in sunglasses had handed it over to you, he walked to the seats in the hall with the two women who looked like sisters beside him.
"Okay, then add more. The man who had been left behind shrugged his shoulders and followed after paying the money.
"Shujian, why did you stop?" Jiang Qi turned his head to look after the cashier, and found that the movements in Lin Shujian's hand had stopped, so he had to shout Lin Shujian again.
"It's okay, I'll finish it right away and send it over. Lin Shujian hurriedly agreed, and then sped up the action at hand, but his heart could no longer calm down, how could he think what he wanted, the last thing he wanted to see now was the international organization represented by Lin Molan, why did he come to him?
Since the preparation of the ingredients had already been completed, in just ten minutes, Lin Shujian could only take a tray and send a few people's things over under Jiang Qi's order.
"Please, please use it slowly. Putting down the food in his hand, Lin Shujian said a polite word awkwardly, and then turned around and wanted to leave.
But as he expected, Lin Molan stopped him.
"Why don't you sit next to you? There are no people in your restaurant right now, so you can sit down for a while. ”
Hear Lin Molan's words. Lin Shujian subconsciously glanced at the door, in his eyes covered by spiritual power, he saw a thin layer of light black crystals, this guy actually casually laid down an enchantment when he entered?!
"What are you looking for me for? I really don't have the power to help you. Lin Shujian, who knew that he couldn't leave now, had no choice but to sit on the side and look at the four of them quietly.
Lin Molan and Xiao Legong had known each other before, but the other two girls he had seen for the first time, the same feeling as Jiutian, the kind of temperament that could not exist in the world, even if he was wearing ordinary clothes, he could not stop the attraction to others, but what attracted Lin Shujian's attention the most was not their appearance, but their almost identical black eyes, those black eyes that brought Lin Shujian a great sense of danger.
"Introduction, my wife, Su Qianyu, this is my daughter, Xiao Qingyu. Xiao Le Gong made the following introduction to Lin Shujian, but to be honest, he really can't distinguish it correctly based on the outside, the almost quite beautiful appearance of the two can't be seen unless you look closely, if you have to say it, that is, the person who looks idle and focuses on the food in front of him should be Xiao Qingyu, and Xiao Le Palace, who has been leaning on him, is very close, and the girl who pays nearly half of his attention to him at any time should be Su Qianyu.
"We are looking for you this time to ask you for a favor, Qian Yu and I are going out on a mission during this time, so I want to ask you to help me guard a place. Xiao Legong's words were very direct, and he said his thoughts.
"Your place, do you think I can keep it?" "Oh, it's going on again, but I really can't do it, a place like you that exists in your heart must be of high value, just rely on my strength, to guard such a place, it's like a meat bun beating a dog."
"You are a member of the Lin family, what can't you keep. Lin Molan scoffed at Lin Shujian's lack of confidence, "You don't know anything about your own strength. ”
"Although I have accepted the reality that I have recognized my parents for more than ten years, you always emphasize the Lin family to me, what the hell are you doing?"
When he was in the hotel, Xu Ruoqing told Shujian what he knew about Lin Shujian and the Lin family in Hong Kong, and under the pressure of Shujian's phone call, Lin Shujian's parents also admitted these facts.
"The person who bleeds her blood, I don't allow him to be so wasteful!" Lin Molan took off her sunglasses and looked at Lin Shujian with extremely sharp eyes, as if a teacher with a strict style was reprimanding her students for not seeking progress.
"She?" Lin Shujian, who only knew about his family situation a few days ago, suddenly became curious about the "she of the Lin family" that Lin Molan always mentioned in his mouth, who is so strong that he can make such a powerful Lin Molan willing to be on the second line.
"The original leader of our Scarlet Night team, Lin Xinyue. Xiao Legong took care of Xiao Qingyu on the side, did not look at Lin Shujian, but answered his question.
"So what..."
"So you kid also has that kind of power in your body that absolutely suppresses others, in the depths of your heart, in your blood. ”
"Can you explain it first, according to you, am I her son or her brother?" Lin Shujian said speechlessly.
"You are the product of an experiment when Lin Xinyue extracted the blood of herself and Qinghuan, trying to construct a biological gene that can surpass the natural evolution of the earth. ”
"And then?"
Then due to the mutation of Qinghuan's genome, the experiment failed, but Lin Xinyue thought that the experimental materials that had been destroyed by her were taken away by Li Tianqi and injected into you, who was still a baby at the time. Lin Molan told Lin Shujian the secret story of thirty years ago little by little, because he was very detailed, Lin Shujian couldn't find any paradox, which even told him the time and place when he was frozen by ultra-low temperature, which made him how to refute.
"You guys, are you really out of hands?" After being silent for a long time, Lin Shujian raised his head that was lowered in contemplation extremely helplessly and looked at Xiao Le Palace.
"There really isn't any. ”
Xiao Legong's eyes are very soft, not as sharp as Lin Molan, but there is an indelible tenacity in this softness, and it is this tenacity that has supported him step by step to get to where he is now.
It was really a pair of warm and deep sea blue eyes, and being watched by Xiao Le Palace, Lin Shujian actually changed his mind and agreed to his request.
And Su Qianyu, who seemed to be jealous, also raised her head and turned to look at Xiao Legong, the corners of her mouth showed a slightly surprised arc, but she quickly disappeared, did not show it again, and turned to take care of Xiao Qingyu who did not care about others on the side.
Three days later, by the West Lake in Hangzhou, a silver-white Aventsdor drove into this century-old city at a normal speed, and the three of them slowly got out of the car by the broken bridge of the West Lake, which was already slightly muddy, and it was Lin Molan, Xiao Le Gong and Su Qianyu who came to perform the mission this time.
"According to Ye Qingfeng, before the dark spirit attacked them, they had contact with Zhang Cangyun, but they didn't expect the dark spirit to move so fast, and we don't even know how many of them there are now. Lin Molan stretched out after getting out of the car, twisted his neck, and stretched his muscles.
When they found that the first two bells rang from the Zhongling Central Square and the Scarlet Night Plains Headquarters respectively, although they couldn't decipher the meaning of the bells, they also realized that the appearance of each bell seemed to guide them forward, so after arranging things in Nanjing in advance, they rushed here at the moment when they heard the bells ringing.
"So act quickly, you go around to investigate the abnormality, Qianyu and I will go to check Zhang Lingjin's medical hall first, if Zhang Cangyun has a place where he often goes, then it is the only one. Holding Su Qianyu's hand, Xiao Le Gong motioned to Lin Mo Landao.
"Okay, let's meet again when we find out. Lin Molan waved one hand, smiled, and then disappeared into this space along with the spirit array that appeared under his feet, everyone who came here had their own goals, and he was no exception.
Now that the weather is getting warmer, Xiao Le Gong and Su Qianyu's slightly thin clothes don't stand out too much on the street, more like two couple college students who wander the street together on the weekend, and it took them nearly an hour to reach their destination - a slightly desolate medical hall with the gate closed under the surrounding opulent buildings.
"I haven't seen this place for a long time, I didn't expect it to be well kept. Looking at the four big words "Spirit Doctor Jinxin" that had already been yellowed and rusted on the storefront, Xiao Legong couldn't help but think of Zhang Lingjin and Sixteen Nights Cangwei, who he couldn't save ten years ago, which was one of the few regretful moments in his life.
This is not just an abandoned and sealed medical hall, this place is also buried with the lifelong philosophy of the two of them, which is enough to see through the concept of yin and yang reversing life and death, but unfortunately, their only descendant has used this concept to embark on another diametrically opposite path and become a 'contrarian' against the organization.
"It's a nice environment. Along the cobblestone path arranged by Zhang Lingjin in the courtyard back then, Su Qianyu, who usually plays alone with Le Gong, is quite heavy on the stone road, stepping on the stone road barefoot, while admiring the winter chrysanthemums that have bloomed in most of the courtyard for more than ten years because no one has taken care of them, while wrapping around Le Gong and pointing out to him those places she thinks are beautiful.
"This guy has always had a very refined taste, and it fits his aesthetic by arranging it like this. "To be honest, Xiao Le Gong has never looked carefully at this "Spirit Doctor Jinxin" medical hall, the longest time he stayed here was the time when Zhang Lingjin and Cang Wei came here ten years ago, and now he is walking here with Su Qianyu, when he carefully feels this courtyard, he can understand the energy that Zhang Lingjin spent on arranging this courtyard back then.
All the architectural furnishings in this entire courtyard are arranged according to the Yin-Yang Bagua Array, but the only pity is that the two cherry blossoms in the center of the array have been destroyed by Vlad when they were attacked, resulting in the paralysis of the entire Yin-Yang Bagua Array.
"According to the direction of origin of the bell, this should be here, but there is no anomaly here. Looking around, Xiao Legong wiped his forehead with a headache, but suddenly a sharp pain that pierced his heart made him cough uncontrollably, and with his violent coughing sound, a line of fine blood flowed from the corner of his mouth.
And Su Qianyu on the side saw Xiao Legong's appearance, as if he was already very experienced, he directly bit his lower lip with his upper teeth, and after letting the blood in his lips flow out, he turned around and kissed Xiao Legong, who looked worse and worse, as Su Qianyu's blood was sent into Xiao Legong's body little by little, Xiao Legong's bad situation gradually stabilized, and finally even his breathing stabilized.
"Damn, sick again. Xiao Legong smiled helplessly and apologized for causing Su Qianyu.
In the past ten years, the condition of his body has been getting worse and worse, and the power of various attributes is constantly tearing apart his body, if it weren't for Su Qianyu's own dragon blood to forcibly treat his body and neutralize those forces, it is estimated that he would not even be able to survive the trip to Norway.
"Well, it's okay, Qianyu's blood is nothing, with me by your side, you'll be fine. Su Qianyu touched Xiao Legong's head understandingly, and comforted him softly, "Let's go to the stone table over there to rest for a while." ”
"Whew, I'm a little tired. Sitting on the stone chair, Xiao Le Gong looked at Su Qianyu, who was sitting at the other end of the stone table, looking at him worriedly, with a slightly tired smile.
"Then I'll rest with you for a while. ”
"No, what I'm saying is that I really feel a little tired of doing this kind of thing now, so I'm thinking about when I can accompany you and Qingyu in the real sense. From Xiao Le Gong's eyes, Su Qianyu felt a kind of tiredness that he had never seen before, it was an existence that he had never shown in front of others who had now become close to a divine existence in the supernatural organization.
He is the spiritual pillar, he is the soul of the whole organization, so he can't show this kind of negative emotions that belong to mortals, he can only play such a "god" in the crowd, but only in front of you, I dare to show such a tired smile, my love.
"Okay, I'd like to go to the space station to have fun first, I've never seen what this planet looks like from the outside, oh yes, bring light feathers with you." For this kind of thing that he couldn't ask for, Su Qianyu was naturally very excited and happily took over Le Gong's words, and even quickly conceived the arrangements after Le Gong completely left these things.
"Remember to bring Light Feather, you're acknowledging her more and more now. ”
"Hmph, I wasn't ready to admit it, who let ... You like her so much. ”
"The dragon's mindset is really strange. Xiao Legong smiled and shook his head, he still hasn't fully understood Su Qianyu's willful personality and weird way of thinking, but this doesn't affect the relationship between the two, but it also makes Su Qianyu always have a mysterious and unknown attraction to him.
"Then when you unravel the three-dimensional form, don't forget to take us to the outside world to play. ”
Just as the two of them were relaxing in this abandoned medical hall, a trace of the extremely similar smell of this place touched the nerves of the two of them, yes, this breath can not just be said to be very similar, but similar to the point that even if they are integrated into this place, there is no clue, but the problem is that its appearance is too sudden, like a glass of water from the outside world into a basin filled with water, although it is all water, but this ripple is still enough to alarm the two of them.
"Come out. At the same time, the two people who noticed the anomaly shouted out in unison, almost tacitly.
"It's very powerful, it is worthy of Xiao Legong and Su Qianyu, which are exactly the same as the rumors. At the main entrance leading to the backyard, a figure that appeared out of thin air slowly stepped forward, it was Zhang Cangyun, who was saved by the Le Palace that day when he blocked the fatal blow of Corvinus.
"You should know what your identity is now, is it really okay to show up so rashly?" Le Gong didn't stand up, he motioned for Zhang Cangyun to sit on the stone chair next to him, it was obvious that the other party dared to appear in this situation, he must have been prepared.
"As a fugitive, what's the trouble, I came to meet with my seniors this time to make a deal with you. Zhang Cangyun patted the stone table in front of him with his armrest, and a dark grid was opened in the center of the stone table, Zhang Cangyun took out the tea set from it, and the tea was still warm, obviously he had expected that Xiao Le Palace and others would come over, or he had been monitoring every move in this area, and everything had been arranged before Xiao Le Palace arrived.
"It's amazing, I didn't find it. Taking the cup of tea handed by Zhang Cangyun, Xiao Legong took a sip, not tea, but winter chrysanthemum tea, which should obviously be cooked with flowers here.
"I don't know if my predecessors are not interested in discovering the traces of dark spirits. ”
With a simple sentence, Zhang Cangyun successfully attracted the attention of Xiao Le Palace, in the current environment, it is obvious that the biggest threat is not the contrarian, but the dark spirit of unknown origin!
"What do you know?"
"When you were encircling and suppressing Lin Shujian, I was attracted to see a man in a black robe, who cleaned up your team members and a guy who didn't know where he came from. Zhang Cangyun said that he couldn't understand what happened next, "Then I was ready to fight him, but this guy talked to me for a while?"
"And then?"
"He gave you some information, and I can tell you that, but I need the seven 'Sealed Array' cards that I designed in the original Sky Sakura. Zhang Cangyun said slowly and unhurriedly.
"How do you know the information of the 'Sealing Array'? After the death of the empty cherry blossom set, no one except me and Qian Yu knew about this matter at all!" After listening to Zhang Cangyun's request, Xiao Le Gong's usually calm face finally changed.
