Chapter 44: The True Purpose
Lin Lan was stunned for a moment, and then her mind was taken away by this sudden news, completely forgetting that she was still in Shen Mutian's arms.
Helian Qiqing is here? What to do?
Although the Ghost Xia Sect did not turn its face with the Righteous Dao Sect on the surface, it has always been you who take your Yangguan Road and I who cross my single-plank bridge, and the two sides have never had the will and experience of living in peace. At this time, the young master of the Ghost Xia Sect came here, it wouldn't be here to drink tea and chat, right? Thinking of Shen Mutian asking her if she wanted to see her, a flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in her mind, and she thought of Helian Qiqing's intention.
"See, why not." She said very cheerfully, "He also knows my ability, and he thinks he should want to share a piece of the pie with us." If we don't see him, we will offend him so badly, and if he doesn't care to tell the story about it, we will be in great trouble! ”
Shen Mutian let go of her lightly and asked solemnly, "With such a big event, would he be so disregarding the overall situation?" ”
"Yes." Lin Lan said without hesitation, "Actually, don't look at him on his face as personable and polite, but after all, he is still a person who cultivates demonic skills, how can his temperament be so good?!" ”
One sentence reminded Shen Mutian, and his face couldn't help but flush a little. It's all because he was a little out of proportion when he heard it, Helian Qiqing was jealous that he and Lin Lan had a life and death that he had never participated in, so his attention was naturally distracted, and he was fooled by his demeanor on the surface, forgetting that people who practice demonic exercises are always a little different from ordinary people no matter what.
From this point of view, it is not okay not to let him see Lin Lan. It's just that......
really didn't let these two meet again, somehow, he always had an inexplicable feeling that Helian Qiqing had unusual thoughts about Lin Lan. He was extremely confident in himself, believing that there were not many people in the entire cultivation world who could compare with him. So he was very sure of getting Lin Lan's peace of mind, but among the few people who could be compared to him, Helian Qiqing was one of them. If Helian Qiqing also had thoughts about Lin Lan, he would be a very difficult opponent!
But no matter how much you don't want to, the current situation is inevitable. After all, he is not a reckless person, it is related to the interests of the entire sect, how can he ignore the overall situation for his own selfishness?!
Thinking of this, he had to secretly sigh deeply and take a closer look at Lin Lan's expression. Fortunately, there was no trace of affection for Helian Qiqing in her eyes, and her eyes were still clear. It seems that for her, Helian Qiqing is nothing special, although she is not full of rejection like others, but she also does not look particularly favored.
That's it, he told himself. Although she doesn't have any special expression on herself. But at least he and Helian Qiqing are on the same line, and no one is ahead of anyone. What will happen in the future. It depends on their performance. If you want something, you can fight for it yourself, this is the iron rule of the cultivation realm, and so is the cultivation of truth, and so is the feelings!
So, he smiled slightly and said, "Sure enough." Shizun said. If you think it is necessary to see this person, go and meet him, otherwise he will still stay in the sect and refuse to leave. It's just that this person is not good, and I am afraid that he has another purpose. You know what to say and how to do it. ”
Lin Lan nodded and said, "I understand, senior brother, where is he now?" ”
Shen Mutian took her out of the city, and as he walked, he told him what had happened in the past few days, and finally said: "He said that he had a transmission note on his body, which he was going to use to contact in an emergency, but is there such a thing?" ”
Lin Lan nodded, thinking about the treatment Helian Qiqing had received in the past few days, she couldn't help but be amused, and a slight smile appeared on her face, and said, "That was when we were in the Tianxuan Continent, because we had to plan a way to return here and investigate each other. We've got another troublesome enemy over there, and for safety and convenience, both sides have each other's transmission notes in case of emergency. ”
Shen Mutian suddenly stopped, looked at her and asked with a strange face, "So, you also have his transmission note on you?" ”
Lin Lan was stunned for a moment, tilted her head and thought about it, and said with some uncertainty: "There should be...... Because I rarely use it, I don't remember whether it's still there or if it's been thrown away. What, Senior Brother wants? ”
Shen Mutian suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "No, I didn't want it." This kind of thing is useless to keep, even if there is one, it is better to throw it away as soon as possible. ”
After saying that, he continued to walk forward.
Lin Lan looked at his back, his eyes flickered a few times, but he didn't say anything, and quickly followed his steps.
After a while, the two came to Helian Qiqing's residence, and at this time he was sitting in the living room, playing with a transmission note in his hand, his eyes were deep, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
In fact, he never thought of using this note here. After all, the Ethereal Immortal Sect is a righteous sect, and Qi Xia Yuanjun and they also understand things, as long as he has enough reasons to exert pressure, they will definitely let Lin Lan come out. It would be a waste to use this precious sigil in such a place!
Sure enough, his ears suddenly moved, his eyes flashed, and the transmission note disappeared from his hand in an instant, and was put into the Qiankun bag. The random door was pushed open, and Shen Mutian and Lin Lan walked in together.
"Young Master Helian, I haven't seen you for a long time!" Lin Lan saluted and said with a smile, as if he didn't know what happened to Lu Dao before, and he didn't know that Lu Dao Helian Qiqing had been waiting here for several days.
Helian Qiqing glanced at her with a smile and said, "Yes, I haven't seen you for a long time, and I haven't seen her since I returned to the Tianyuan Continent, right?" I heard that you are in retreat, are you out now? ”
Lin Lan didn't argue, and followed his words and said: "Yes, it's just an occasional feeling, so I closed a small pass, and I heard about you just coming out at this time, so I naturally didn't dare to slack off, so I came out." ”
Helian Qiqing glanced at her deeply, showed a meaningful smile, did not dwell on this issue, but looked at Lin Lan and said, "With the friendship between you and me, there is no need to say these polite lies anymore, right?" After a farewell, I don't know how you're now, but now it seems that you're in good spirits. ”
Lin Lan said with a smile: "Young Master Helian also looks very good!" I think it's because after returning to the sect, people are in good spirits on happy occasions! ”
The two exchanged a few polite words, and Helian Qiqing invited her to sit down, and then glanced at Shen Mutian, and smiled a little inscrutablely, with a clear look of unwelcome in his eyes.
Lin Lan and Shen Mutian could see that although Shen Mutian was not angry, he had no intention of fulfilling Helian Qiqing's wishes. But Lin Lan knew that he was here, and Helian Qiqing would not tell the real purpose of coming here this time, so he had to persuade softly: "Senior brother, don't you still have something to do?" Go ahead and get busy, I'll just talk to Young Master Helian here. ”
After Shen Mutian was stunned for a moment, he immediately understood what she meant, and couldn't help but hesitate a little. But Helian Qiqing's temperament has been somewhat understood in the past few days, and he can only sigh silently when he sees this, and said, "Okay, I'll go first, and you can talk slowly." But junior sister, the sect master once said that he would ask you to find him for a while, don't forget. ”
He had laid a way out for Lin Lan in advance, in case Helian Qiqing was aggressive, Lin Lan could avoid it in a bright way.
Helian Qiqing pursed his lips and smiled, without saying much, he saw Shen Mutian immediately say goodbye to him, and then turned around and walked out.
He is a neat and neat character, since he has decided, he will never drag the mud and water, and he also has confidence in Lin Lan that he will not betray himself or the sect, so he really handed over this matter to Lin Lan to deal with it very chicly.
After he left, Lin Lan smiled slightly, poured himself a glass of water, and asked while drinking: "Young Master Helian, you have nothing to do but ascend the Three Treasures Palace!" I guess there's a special reason for coming here today, right? ”
Helian Qiqing leaned back in his chair, and in an instant, all his demeanor and chic were gone, like a slacker with no bones, sitting crookedly, very shapeless. They can be regarded as partners in life and death, and many things are already familiar with each other, so they don't need to hide too much.
He pursed the corners of his lips and said, "You still don't know the purpose of my coming?" Anyway, I'm also one of the heroes who found that teleportation array, and you are secretly looking for a new teleportation array in private, how can you not give me a piece of the pie for such a good thing? ”
Lin Lan turned the teacup in his hand and asked quietly, "Are you saying this in your own capacity, or as the young master of your sect?" ”
Helian Qiqing glanced at her and said lightly: "Naturally, it is the identity of the young master." Okay, you know my eating habits, get me something to eat, and we'll see how you're doing now......"
Ben came to their realm, it doesn't matter if they eat or not, but Lin Lan and Helian Qiqing are both foodies, in order to protect their appetites, no matter where they go, the first thing is naturally to scavenge the famous snacks in this place first to satisfy the cravings in their stomachs.
Many monks in the infancy stage will have their own quirks, so Lin Lan likes to "eat", which is not something to make a fuss about.
But he's going to see the current progress?
Lin Lan thought about it, shook his head and said, "It's okay to eat, so it's okay to visit." It's being studied now, and it's not conclusive yet, so it's useless for you to go. ”
Helian Qiqing gave her a strange look, nodded and said, "Since you said so, then don't look at it yet." But the ugly thing to say is ahead, if you succeed in your research in the future, I will participate in it no matter what. (To be continued......)
