Chapter Twenty-Six: The Importance of Self-Knowledge
Hearing a knock at the door, Yiyi's cultivation immediately stopped, and she became vigilant, as if if there was a threat to Lynch's life at the door, she would not hesitate to make a move. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
Seeing this, Lynch motioned for Yiyi to relax, and then got up from the bed and came to the door.
"Crunch."
There was a noise from the old wooden door, and after squinting his eyes, and after adjusting to the harsh sunlight outside, Lynch saw the person clearly, but his expression immediately changed.
"You're looking for me?" Lynch raised an eyebrow and blurted out.
For the person standing outside the door, Lynch was indeed a little unexpected.
It turned out to be that sixty-year-old Li Lao!
Old Li had white hair and a large figure, and when he looked at Lynch, his eyes were full of worry and anxiety.
Although he hadn't seen him for a few days, Lynch didn't know if it was an illusion, and he suddenly found that Li Lao seemed to look a lot older.
However, no matter what, I don't seem to have anything to do with Li Lao, right?
What is he looking for himself?
Looking at the old man in front of him in wonder, Lynch didn't have a good impression of him at all when he thought of what he had done......
In his memory, this old man always left any benefits to his family in the town, and only after his family took advantage of them would he distribute the benefits according to the distance of his relationship.
Especially at the beginning, the old man insisted on moving his ancestral grave, saying that the ancestral tomb before was standing in a fierce place, which would cause future generations to have a bloody disaster or something......
Retracting his thoughts, Lynch looked at Li Lao again, his face was already much uglier.
Especially Li Lao still seemed to be hesitating, as if he had something to say but couldn't say it.
Lynch finally turned pale, and said directly without giving a good face, "What the hell are you looking for me?" ”
Hearing this, Li Lao's face changed several times, and he seemed to be a little unhappy with Lynch's tone, but he still suppressed his unhappiness in his heart.
"Lynch, I'd like to ask you to do me a favor." Finally, Li Lao spoke, his face was quite sincere.
"Help?" Lynch was stunned.
"You dignified mayor, what can I do for you?" Lynch was a little confused.
"I'll let you help, of course you can!" Li Lao didn't seem to like others doubting him, so he subconsciously refuted.
After speaking, a few people happened to pass by and said hello to Li Lao, but Li Lao seemed to feel a little embarrassed to stand at the door of Lynch, so he ignored it.
When those people were far away, Li Lao's face became a little ugly and looked at Lynch.
"I know you and that friend of yours are very strong."
"My grandson has been captured by Half Moon Bay, you have to help me!"
After speaking, Li Lao finally couldn't pretend to be calm, and his tone was full of anxiety, as if he wished that Lynch nodded and agreed to go to Half Moon Bay to save his grandson immediately.
Hearing Li Laoyi say such a thing angrily, Lynch was stunned and didn't react for a long time.
It wasn't until a while later that Lynch finally looked displeased, "You old man is really ridiculous, you asked me to help, and you are still so arrogant?" ”
"Since you're in that tone, then I'm sorry, all I can say is that I can't help it."
"You ......" Li Lao was stunned, as if he didn't expect Lynch to refuse.
However, Lynch really wasn't going to help him!
Although Lynch used to be the owner of the body and lived in this town, he was instilled with the idea of unity in the interests of the town since he was a child, and it seemed that he should listen to the mayor of the town most of the time.
But Lynch himself did not grow up under such brainwashing.
In Lynch's opinion, he didn't owe him anything at all.
So, press me with that set of shelves from your mayor?
Sorry, I really don't eat it!
When the words fell, Lynch looked at Li Lao's face and seemed to want to "give orders", but Lynch simply shook his hand.
"Bang."
The wooden door of the hut was slammed shut by Lynch!
"You!" Seeing this scene, Li Lao wanted to reprimand loudly, but the closed wooden door had already blocked what he wanted to say in his throat.
After not opening his mouth for a long time, Li Lao stood in front of the door of the hut, his face was red and white for a while, and he was trembling with anger......
From childhood to adulthood, not only him, but also the people in the town who did not obey the orders of the mayor?
When he was not yet the mayor of the town, even if he was older than the mayor Chu Mo at that time - Chu Sitian's father, didn't he obey Chu Mo's orders?
Why now, Lynch is doing this to himself?!
Not only Li Lao, but also the people around who had not noticed this scene gathered after the door of the hut "slammed" shut.
They had already heard the conversation between the two, so after gathering here, they immediately started gossiping, and it sounded like most of them were supporting Li Lao.
The town is in danger...... Well, no, it's Li Lao's grandson who is in danger.
Shouldn't you help Lynch?
You're still a cultivator!
Of course, despite the denunciation of this group, no one dared to break into the hut in front of them, which was only a few meters away.
Joke...... Lynch is the man who can kill wolves.
Realizing this, although everyone supported Li Lao on the surface, they secretly laughed at Li Lao in their hearts for holding chicken feathers as an arrow.
I laughed at Li Lao naivety in my heart, and I really thought that Lin Qi, a cultivator, would listen to your ordinary orders.
……
Lynch ignored the chatter outside, closed the door and sat back on his bed.
Sitting on the bed, Lynch found that Tian Tian hadn't spoken for a long time, and glanced at it, only to see that Tian Tian seemed to think of something at the moment, and her eyes were a little red.
Seeing this scene, how could Lynch not know that it was Tian Tian, who must have seen Li Lao and thought of his father, who was once the mayor of the town.
Discovering this, Lynch became even more dissatisfied with Li Lao.
Finally, Tian Tian was about to forget, but this old man came to make trouble......
"Tian Tian doesn't cry, don't worry, your father's death is not necessarily a bad thing." Lynch thought for a moment and comforted.
Hearing Lynch say this, Tian Tian looked at it with tears in her eyes, and choked up, "Why, why isn't it a bad thing?" ”
"Because your father will surely see your mother...... Think about it, your father loves her so much, isn't it worth your joy to see her again? ”
Lynch's words made Tian Tian stunned, and after a moment, her little eyes were firm, and then nodded, "Yes, yes, he will be very happy!" ”
After speaking, Tian Tian burst into tears and smiled, and then seemed to hear the voices of people outside the door, and looked at Lynch in puzzlement, his eyes revealing a little puzzlement.
"Brother Lin, who came to you just now?" Wiping away her tears, Tian Tian asked.
Lynch scoffed when he heard this.
"A person who doesn't know it......"
