Chapter 21: Lin Mengqi's Trick
After Lin Mengqi on the side heard Lin Long's words, she also cast a grateful look at Lin Long. It can be said that as long as the current patriarch can teach Lin Yan some lessons, this is also what Lin Mengqi wants to see the most. On this point, she is in line with Lin Long's thoughts.
"What? There is such a thing?" Lin Tianxiong's eyes were stunned, and he was shocked.
Of course, what shocked him was not only that Lin Xu was defeated by Lin Yan, but also that Lin Yan suddenly returned to the family and was able to cultivate, this kind of thing was too unbelievable, even if he was well-informed, he couldn't accept it for a while, and he couldn't even understand it.
You must know that Lin Yan has been wasted for more than ten years, and after suddenly disappearing for a while, he is now able to cultivate, and he is rewarded for the first recovery, and he defeated Lin Xu at the sixth level of condensation in one move, Lin Tianxiong is not an ignorant teenager like Lin Long, he is an old man who has lived for decades, and he realized that this matter is absolutely unusual, and it is permeated with weirdness from beginning to end, but he can't find any clue for a while.
"A lot of people were there, and if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed it. Speaking of which, it was indeed a bit strange at the time!" Seeing his grandfather's surprised gaze, Lin Long emphasized again.
"Are you sure, you really haven't seen Lin Yan's move, and his attack didn't touch Lin Xu, but Lin Xu was knocked down!" What made Lin Tianxiong even more surprised was how Lin Yan defeated Lin Xu's move.
He is also worthy of being the patriarch of the Lin family, and he directly grasped the key to the problem, and he keenly felt that Lin Yan's means of defeating Lin Xu was definitely not any martial arts passed down by the Lin family, and where did Lin Yan get this martial art, which was very important.
At that time, he just waved his hand lightly, and Lin Xu's punch seemed to be blocked by something, and then Lin Xu suddenly fell out for some reason, and there was no way to fight back in the whole process!" Lin Long did describe the truth at this point, and he also glanced at Lin Mengqi.
Lin Mengqi understood, and immediately spoke: "Yes, patriarch, what Brother Lin Long said is completely true, there is no trace of adulteration!"
"Where is Lin Yan now?" Lin Tianxiong had already noticed that Lin Yan's figure did not appear on the high platform, and he wanted to get the truth he wanted to know from Lin Yan's mouth at the moment.
"I've been practicing martial arts just now, and I also reminded him to let him participate in the test, but his attitude was very arrogant, he didn't take this test seriously at all, and he didn't plan to participate at all, as if he didn't think of himself as a member of the Lin family. Lin Long seized the opportunity at this moment, not to mention adding fuel and vinegar, and deliberately deducted Lin Yan's hat that was not too big or small.
Sure enough, Lin Tianxiong's face showed displeasure, and his brows were tightly locked, falling into deep thought, of course, he was not thinking about why Lin Yan didn't participate in the family test, but he was thinking about why Lin Yan was able to cultivate, but he still didn't know why.
"If it's really as Long'er said, then this Lin Yan is really strange...... It stands to reason that a month ago, he was seriously injured by the people of the royal family, and even if he didn't die, it would be impossible for him to recover in a short period of time, but now he has not only recovered, but also seems to be able to cultivate, and he can also defeat Lin Xu...... It's unbelievable!"
The more Lin Tianxiong thought about it, the more puzzling he became, "What happened in this month? And what kind of means did he use? This incident always seems to reveal strange ......"
After a while, he glanced at Lin Long and Lin Mengqi again, and his tone was very flat, "Okay, I already know about this matter...... and then changed the topic, "Long'er, you have to perform well in this test, don't let grandpa lose face, understand?"
Although he was also curious and eager to get an answer, it was obviously not appropriate at the moment, because the test conference was more important, so he had to ignore it for the time being.
"Grandson understands!"
Although he didn't get a clear attitude from his grandfather on this matter, Lin Long was not worried that it would be over, at least the third elder Lin Tianqi would not ignore it, and besides, he also knew his grandfather, he would never show his thoughts in public, and he would plan and act before acting, and he knew that what he should do was enough, and he didn't have to worry about the rest of the things.
After telling Lin Long, Lin Tianxiong didn't plan to say anything to Lin Mengqi, nor did he look at her. He is very clear about Lin Mengqi's relationship with Lin Yan in the past, he is not a young man like Lin Long who has just fallen in love, of course he knows what Lin Mengqi is thinking, but he will not break it.
After all, Lin Mengqi is also a member of the Lin family, and he is extremely talented, if his grandson can firmly control Lin Mengqi, he will not obstruct it, which is not harmful to the Lin family and himself.
Lin Mengqi also noticed that the patriarch in front of her did not show special attention to herself, not even a word of encouragement, she also understood that she had always had little status in the other party's heart, although she was a little disappointed, and even quite dissatisfied, but she did not show her face.
"Brother Lin Long, what did you say happened to Lin Yan during this time? And he suffered such serious internal injuries at the beginning, and now how can he be the same as no one? This seems a bit unbelievable!" At this time, she asked Lin Long softly, and at the same time deliberately pretended to be a little girl's charm and kindness, not at all like the goddess of the iceberg.
It can be said that a kind "Brother Lin Long" can make it easy for her to achieve her goal, and Lin Long is almost dizzy.
And she also said this on purpose at the moment, the purpose of which was to let Lin Tianxiong, the patriarch, hear it, and remind Lin Tianxiong to pay attention to Lin Yan's changes.
I have to say that she is indeed very scheming, but she is doing this redundantly, in fact, Lin Tianxiong has already considered this, even more than her, but he did not show any attitude at this moment.
To be able to become the head of a clan, Lin Tianxiong's city government is quite deep, and he will definitely not easily reveal his thoughts.
"Mengqi, in fact, I also feel strange about this, I heard that Lin Tianxiao spent a lot of money to save him, and the price was very huge, even ......" Seeing the iceberg goddess in his mind smile so kindly at him, Lin Long had a fluttering feeling, and he almost missed his mouth.
As Lin Tianxiong's own grandson, Lin Long certainly knows a lot of things, but some things are inconvenient to say before the result is clear, for example, Lin Tianxiao After his son Lin Weiliang was arrested and Lin Yan was seriously injured by the third prince, he traded a rejuvenation pill with Jiang Hanqing, the Jiang family, to save Lin Yan, and paid a huge price.
However, he also realized it, and immediately changed the topic, "Don't worry, Mengqi! He won't be arrogant for a few days, and it won't be long before he and his grandfather will obediently get out of the Lin family, you don't have to worry that Lin Tianxiao will be jealous of you because of something, and the Lin family will be completely my grandfather in the future, and you will also be fully cultivated by the family." ”
Lin Long was very aware of Lin Mengqi's concerns, it was nothing more than worrying about Lin Tianxiao's existence, after all, Lin Tianxiao had served as the patriarch of the Lin family for a long time, and had accumulated a lot of influence and prestige.
At this time, several other elders also knew the truth of the whole matter, and they were all shocked, but the eyes that looked at Lin Xu became a little weird, some expressed sympathy, and some gloated.
Now Lin Tianqi is the only one who doesn't know the specific situation, but he also heard a few words from everyone's ears, and knows that Lin Xu has indeed suffered a big loss, which makes him feel very bad, and glared at this grandson fiercely.
"Now don't worry about anything else, you have to brace yourself and take the test seriously for a while. I'll get back to the rest. ”
Lin Xu drooped his head and didn't respond, of course he knew that he was the focus of everyone's discussions, where was he in the mood to think about anything else.
At this moment, a deacon of the Lin family came to Lin Tianqi's side and muttered a few words in a low voice, after that, Lin Tianqi's face changed greatly, and then he said unabashedly angry: "What?
His voice was very loud, and everyone listened to it clearly, which showed how much atmosphere he had, obviously, in his opinion, although Lin Yan defeated Lin Xu, although it was incredible, it was even more unacceptable and unforgivable, and he wanted to give his grandson a bad breath.
"Third child, you calm down first! That's just a child's fight, there's no need to make a fuss!" Lin Tianxiong immediately stopped, "It's the family's test conference now, everything will be dealt with after it's over, and no one is allowed to interfere with the normal progress of the conference." ”
His voice was not loud, but his tone was full of majesty.
Lin Tianxiong was able to sit in the position of patriarch, but he was not in vain, and he was not an impulsive person like Lin Tianqi, he was very urban, don't look at him on the surface He is very calm, but he is a deep-minded person, and he is more curious about Lin Yan than anyone else, but he doesn't show it.
And purely on the surface, the battle between Lin Yan and Lin Xu is indeed nothing more than a child's fighting spirit at best, and it definitely can't be compared with the family's talent test, and it can't be declared in full view of the private vendetta.
He was also shocked when he heard that Lin Yan was able to cultivate, but he calmed down and didn't immediately ask Lin Yan to ask in person, because this kind of thing was not suitable for asking in public, not to mention that there was still a talent test.
Besides, Lin Yan can't run, and there is no need to rush for a while.
"Okay, I'll listen to the eldest brother!" Don't look at Lin Tianqi's high position and power, and he has a hot temper, but in front of this new patriarch, he never dared to be presumptuous.
Lin Tianxiong is not only the patriarch, but also his eldest brother, and more importantly, Lin Tianxiong's strength is more than a step stronger than him Lin Tianqi, if Lin Tianxiong is not in charge of the Lin family, Lin Tianqi is probably nothing.
Everyone saw that Lin Tianqi was obediently admitted by the patriarch, and many people couldn't help but want to laugh, but no one dared to really laugh out loud, but they just held back one by one, because everyone knew that once they couldn't control their laughter, they would be unlucky!
And at this moment, an elder spoke, "Patriarch, I heard that Lin Yan once said repeatedly that he could cultivate without a martial source, but he didn't come to participate in the family's test, and he was suspected of ignoring the family, this wind must not last!"
"Yes, if this behavior is allowed to be done, then who will abide by the rules of the family in the future?" another elder expressed his attitude.
