22. Chapter XXII
Seeing that the atmosphere was gradually at an impasse, Tang Lin, who was in person, walked a few steps forward with a smile, turned his head to look at the two people who were frozen on the ground, pointed to the outer disciples' clothes on their bodies and said, "Please allow me to interject: If I am not mistaken, Ling Shan seems to have a rule that when other disciples practice magic moves, disciples of this sect are not allowed to peep on the side without permission." ”
"So what? You haven't practiced magic here......" Fang Honglang opened his mouth without thinking, Tang Lin shook his head and said without blinking: "Quite the opposite. I just happened to be practicing swordsmanship with Xiao Daoyou right here. ”
He looked at the huge sword mark on the ground, and said unashamedly: "Just now we were practicing to the rise, Xiao Daoyou suddenly sensed that someone was peeping, and he felt something, so he sent out this sword, otherwise how could there be a reason to come out with a sword without hurting people?" It's just that he didn't want to hurt me by mistake at the time. ”
Fang Honglang was almost laughed at by him: "You don't practice swords in your own sect, and come to my Ling Mountain from afar?" ”
"I didn't originally come to practice swords, I just wanted to take my spirit pet around Lingshan." Tang Linyi solemnly pointed to his bird body, and hurriedly manipulated the bird body to make a stunned face in the condition that an innocent spirit pet should have, and began to peck Xiao Zibai's hair in front of Fang Honglang.
Xiao Zibai didn't hold back, curled the corners of his lips slightly, and quickly rubbed the "dumplings". Tang Lin coughed twice, and Xiao Zibai immediately retracted his expression and turned back to a cold iceberg.
Tang Lin also continued to say to Fang Honglang, who was smoking, in a serious manner: "I was here to visit the scenery of Lingshan, and I didn't want to meet Xiao Daoyou by chance. My spirit pet once had an old relationship with Xiao Daoyou, seeing that my spirit pet and Xiao Daoyou had reunited after a long absence, and their affection was warm, I couldn't help but be deeply touched, and I felt that I couldn't help but condense the spell and ask Xiao Daoyou for swordsmanship. ”
This is almost clearly saying, "I saw that my spirit pet was very close to Xiao Zibai, and I was unhappy, so I deliberately provoked him and wanted to beat him."
This reason is really convincing, even Xiao Zibai can't refute it, and Fang Honglang obviously can't. He choked suddenly, his eyes turned to the left and right, but he found that he forgot to take his little brother when he went out, and the only two were still frozen on the ground, so he had to grit his teeth and harden himself: "It's your business to ask him about swordsmanship, and it's his business to hurt his fellow disciples, and the two can't be mixed up!" ”
"You can't say that, after all, these two things are one thing." Tang Lin was playing with Xiao Zibai while controlling the bird's body, and at the same time, he said to the other party Honglang in two hearts: "The unique secret method of my Imperial Beast Sect was peeped at, Xiao Daoyou insisted on his righteousness without favoritism, and he was not afraid of rumors and personally came forward for me to seek justice, so he injured his fellow disciple, isn't this the cause and effect of the same thing?" ”
Then he cleaned up his clothes, and bowed deeply to Xiao Zibai in front of Fang Honglang: "Tang Lin, a disciple of the Lower Imperial Beast Sect." I would like to thank Xiao Daoyou for his help. Then Tang Lin turned around again and said to Fang Honglang categorically: "If Fang Daoyou is determined to reverse black and white, and there is no distinction between right and wrong, even if I, Tang Lin, make trouble in front of the two sect heads, I will definitely make this matter clear!" ”
Fang Honglang's long hair was about to stand up in anger.
No one knows if Tang Lin really practiced the spell with Xiao Zibai there, there are only four witnesses, two victims, and one party, Tang Lin, who seems to have nothing to do with the people in Lingshan, naturally has the heaviest weight in speaking, if it really makes trouble on the Xingfeng, it will still be Tang Lin's testimony.
You must know that although there are various spells in the cultivation realm that probe the divine sense and search for memory, all of these spells have quite a lot of sequelae, and it is very likely that the spirit will collapse, the divine consciousness will collapse, and even the soul will die.
Although Xiao Zibai froze the two Shao family brothers this time, he didn't really hurt their lives, in the Lingshan Sword Sect, where there are thousands of disciples and all kinds of frictions occur every day, this is just a small matter that can't be smaller, even if he desperately smashes this matter, at most he can only punish Xiao Zibai for confinement and cultivation or deduct spirit stones-and does Xiao Zibai care about this?
Fang Honglang asked the Shao family brothers to come at the beginning just to find an opportunity to see if he could make the relationship between the "people of the Royal Beast Sect" and Xiao Zibai worse, so that the plan he discussed with Xu Xun to kill people with a knife seemed more real and credible. Who knew that these two brothers were so unbearable, they were easily discovered, and they didn't know how to run if they were exposed, so they directly caught Xiao Zibai.
In fact, he didn't expect to stop Xiao Zibai with his sudden howl, at most he just hoped to stop him, so that the two brothers of the Shao family could take the opportunity to escape. As a result, Xiao Zibai didn't hesitate to say anything, the two brothers of the Shao family were really stupid and stupid, and they didn't even make a running gesture.
could have made that little hairy boy suffer a secret loss openly, but this bastard boy pushed and blocked, and he changed his nature lightly and skillfully. Fang Honglang just wanted to disgust Xiao Zibai with this matter, but he didn't want to disgust himself, seeing that he couldn't do anything, he had already had the idea of retreating.
Fang Honglang waved the sleeves of his robe vigorously, and snorted coldly: "Between heaven and earth, there is a righteous way!" Right and wrong, there will be heavenly commentary! After throwing down these two words that seemed to be very imposing and full of righteous indignation, Fang Honglang left angrily, if it weren't for the two brothers of the Shao family who were forgotten by him intentionally or unintentionally, Tang Lin might really be ashamed of his behavior of making up lies for a few seconds.
He tapped his lips, remembering that Kong Liu had evaluated Ling Shan's head of the "acquaintance" at the beginning, and couldn't help but sigh that there were people in Ling Shan's successors, and the evaluation of "acquaintance" was naturally placed on Fang Honglang's body.
Xiao Zibai touched the hilt of the sword uncomfortably beside him, and thanked Tang Lin a little awkwardly: "Thank you Tang Daoyou for helping." ”
Tang Lin waved his hand generously: "It's okay, it's okay, it's just a gesture, a gesture." ”
His waving of his hand was just a habitual action, he never expected that after such a wave of his hand, his gorgeous and wide sleeves would actually hang directly on the hilt of Xiao Zibai's sword. Tang Lin was stunned for a few seconds, and pulled his sleeve to his side with a little embarrassment, but the sword on Xiao Zibai's body was not bolted steadily, and he was completely dragged to the ground with a "dang" sound.
…… This time the scene is very embarrassing.
Tang Lin coughed, and without thinking about it, he squatted down to pick up the sword, who knew that Xiao Zibai happened to also stretch out his hand at this moment, and it was so coincidental that the hands of the two of them happened to touch a place above the sword.
At that moment, he clearly felt that the moment he touched the back of his hand, Xiao Zibai's hand shook slightly.
…… Is this disgusting him?! Tang Lin pursed his lips and retracted his hand like lightning.
Xiao Zibai's hand froze there all of a sudden, he paused for a moment, and then retracted his hand.
The scabbard on the ground was still lying there awkwardly, and neither of them looked into the other's eyes.
"Sorry, I didn't mean to." Tang Lin was silent for a while, smiled apologetically, and seeing that Xiao Zibai didn't seem to have any intention of picking up the sword again, he first lowered his head and picked up the saber on the ground and handed it to Xiao Zibai. Catching a glimpse of the scabbard being cut by the one just now, Tang Lin naturally said to Xiao Zibai: "Sorry for breaking your scabbard, next time I will pay you one back as an atonement." ”
Xiao Zibai subconsciously responded, and after reacting, he hurriedly wanted to say no, but raised his eyes and saw Tang Lin's slender eyes, and for a while he actually forgot how to use his tongue, and could only say two sentences, and he couldn't make any meaningful syllables.
He held the scabbard in his hand and was stunned, not remembering that "Dango" had been forgotten by him.
Originally, Tang Lin was haunted by Xiao Zibai's reaction when he touched his hand, but now even the bird body was completely ignored by the child! With the mind of half out of anger and half prank, Tang Lin took advantage of Xiao Zibai's daze to quietly control the bird's body again, and really concentrated on pecking Xiao Zibai's hair.
By the time Xiao Zibai finally came to his senses, the strand of black hair that hung down to his chest had been pecked away, looking like a tangled weed, or a rag full of pits. I don't know how Tang Lin put his mouth, this little strand of hair was pecked so miserably, and it kept going, still swaying there, looking extremely pitiful.
Xiao Zibai: ......
Tang Lin, who was peeking at Xiao Zibai's expression next to him, hooked his lips with satisfaction, and the depression in his chest disappeared in the blink of an eye, and then he looked at Xiao Zibai's appearance again, and he felt a little guilty.
After all, this qiē was caused by him himself.
Tang Lin, who wanted to make up for his mistake, reached out and touched it from the storage bag, and took out a hairband from the pile of "gifts" that might never be given, walked up to Xiao Zibai two steps forward, handed him the headband and said, "Tie up your hair, it's probably more convenient." ”
Xiao Zibai seemed to hesitate at that moment before reaching out and taking the hairband in Tang Lin's hand. Because the hairband was both narrow and thin, Xiao Zibai's fingers inevitably crossed Tang Lin's palm, and the moment their skin touched, Xiao Zibai's fingertips trembled imperceptibly.
The smile on Tang Lin's face became a little stiff.
Do you really dislike me so much?!
He pursed his lips into a straight line, raised his palm slightly, and sent the hairband to Xiao Zibai's hand lightly.
Root! Reaching out and pinching the headband, Xiao Zibai finally found where his tongue was. He opened his mouth to speak, but Tang Lin was no longer willing to stay in front of him any longer, and with a flick of his robe sleeves, he said goodbye and left lightly, saying that he was going to meet the head of Ling Shan and the elders, I don't know if it was because he was in too much hurry and even forgot to bring his spiritual pet.
Xiao Zibai was stunned and hugged the "Tuanzi" who had been forgotten to the edge of the world, and whispered to him with some trepidation and joy: "Tuanzi...... Do you feel ...... Just your host looks ...... Particularly good-looking? ”
Tang Lin: ????
That kind of table actually thinks I'm good-looking? You didn't say I thought you were disgusting me??
Finding that Xiao Zibai's meaning was completely contrary to his own understanding, Tang Lin couldn't help but feel depressed. He thought about it for a while, but finally decided not to swallow it.
So the next moment, Xiao Zibai found that Tang Lin, who had already left, suddenly walked back quickly.
"Give me back my spiritual pet." Tang Lin honestly and unceremoniously stretched out his hand towards Xiao Zibai, then controlled his bird body, flew away from Xiao Zibai's arm without the slightest hesitation, squatted happily on his hand, and deliberately rubbed his cheeks, posing in a very intimate posture.
Xiao Zibai: ......
Tang Lin snatched the dumplings away! But why does he still think Tang Lin is good-looking? Even when you snatch the dumplings, they still look good...... Such a thought seemed to be very sorry for Tuanzi, but he really couldn't deceive his heart, and in a dilemma, Xiao Zibai immediately fell into deep self-doubt.
Tang Lin didn't want to think about Xiao Zibai's inner thoughts at all, and he didn't bother to feel Xiao Zibai's complicated feelings, so he directly brought his bird body and left Xiao Zibai happily, leaving Xiao Zibai alone to look at the sky.
*
Xiao Zibai didn't know what was wrong with him, he knew that Tang Lin was a bad guy and a bastard who robbed the group, but he just couldn't help but have a good impression of Tang Lin, and sometimes he would even ignore the group because of Tang Lin......
Heartless, unfortunate, ungrateful.
Xiao Zibai spit on himself like this.
Did he forget how good the dumplings were to him? would treat the group coldly for a person who has never met a few times! Xiao Zibai was almost ashamed of himself, but the next time he saw Tang Lin and Tuanzi, his eyes would still be deeply attracted by Tang Lin.
No matter how much he warned himself, it was useless, Tang Lin's body was like a magnet, firmly absorbing all of Xiao Zibai's attention. When Tang Lin appeared, the world in front of Xiao Zibai's eyes fell into a dark chaos, and only Tang Lin had light.
"Maybe it's just a spur of the moment, and it will subside after a while." Xiao Zibai thought comfortingly, but unlike what he expected, as time passed, his yearning and love for Tang Lin increased day by day, more and more day by day. Sometimes when he saw Tang Lin interacting with Tuanzi, he actually had a faint sense of jealousy, wishing that he would become a Tuanzi and be close to Tang Lin - this terrible thought had just been born, and Xiao Zibai himself was frightened.
He finally realized, "It's not going to go on like this." ”
On a dark and rainy night, Xiao Zibai decided to tell the wall about Tang Lin's bad things, so as to dispel the idea that he liked him.
"Tang Lin didn't let the group come out for several years, so that the group couldn't move freely, and even the last Ling Shan had to take the group with him, obviously not giving the group the space to be free!"
He said this in his mouth, but he refuted his words in his heart: "Everyone is a cultivator, it is normal to retreat for a few years, and demon hunting has been so rampant recently, if Tang Lin just let Tuanzi come out alone, it will really be called irresponsible." ”
After thinking for a while, Xiao Zibai changed his head and said:
"That guy Tang Lin looks like he has a luxurious life, the clothes on his body are glowing with gold, and even the fabric must be specially made. Such a guy is too obsessed with external objects, and most of the time he will not achieve anything in cultivation, and Tuanzi will definitely have no future if he follows him. ”
…… Is it? Xiao Zibai was frustrated that this was not convincing. The last time Tang Lin came, he hadn't yet built a foundation, but this time he came back was close to Jindan, and he was obviously an extremely genius to be able to do this in just seven years. And there is no doubt that only money can make Tuanzi live well, at least Xiao Zibai himself knows that he will never have enough spirit stones to make Tuanzi live a life similar to that in the Imperial Beast Sect.
Xiao Zibai racked his brains to think and think, tried hard to arrange Tang Lin's black material, and said it one by one, but in the end he couldn't even convince himself.
However, he didn't know that Tang Lin was outside the door at this moment, and he heard all the black materials he had choreographed.
Tang Lin originally wanted to come to visit Xiao Zibai, and specially brought him a soft peach with multiple juices for supper, but when he expected to come with great interest, he unexpectedly heard Xiao Zibai chattering endlessly counting all kinds of "Tang Lin".
The complex emotions in Xiao Zibai's heart were completely unknown to Tang Lin, Tang Lin silently listened to him constantly arranging his black material, the more he listened, the darker his face became, and finally he almost heard the smoke of the seven tricks, he just wanted to stuff a salute under Xiao Zibai's buttocks, pull the lead hard, let him go to the sky with a bang, and then explode freely.
He flapped his wings violently with anger, flew away from Xiao Zibai's door in a huff, flew halfway and turned back, taking away the soft peach with many large juices.
