Chapter Twelve: A Trip to the Void

Chen Lin set off from Anyang, a group of five people, and then received Zhou Cang, fortunately Zhou Cang did not want to ride a horse, a group of six people went to Yinling, and arrived at Yinling City a day later. When they arrived at the city gate, Chen Lin and the others dismounted, found an inn to stay, and instructed the store to prepare the horses and eat some food in the store, Zhou Cang and the others did not dare to sit with Chen Lin.

Chen Lin called the innkeeper, asked for a jar of wine, cut ten catties of meat, and ate a little light, and drank the wine after a while. Just as everyone was eating happily, Xiao Er led a young man, who seemed to be slightly longer than Chen Lin. Xiao Er pointed at Chen Lin and said to the young man: "The young master is this person", the young master glanced at Chen Lin, swept the little two with his hand, and only said the word "roll".

Chen Lin saw that this person was well-dressed, and he still had a good impression, but at this time, when he saw this person doing this to his subordinates, he also frowned, but he didn't know what the young man was going to do, Zhou Cang, Huang Yan and the others hurriedly stood up.

The young man glanced at Zhou Cang, Huang Yan and the others, and actually spit out a sentence: "Rough people, retreat." Chen Lin was instantly angry, this person actually spoke ill of the Chen family for no reason, which was really excessive. Zhou Cang and the others were even more bruised, if it weren't for the eldest young master, according to Zhou Cang's temperament of walking the rivers and lakes in his early years, he would have been beaten up.

Chen Lin was furious, he didn't want to come to Yinling for less than a meal, but he met such an unreasonable person. Chen Lin didn't speak, he just drank his wine glass. Unexpectedly, the young master actually arched his hand at Chen Lin, and said with a smile: "Yinling Li Mao Li Wenli, I don't know the honorific title of the son?" ”

Chen Lin was stunned for a moment, this successive gap, Chen Lin thought about it again, and suddenly understood that this Li Wenli was probably a child of the local scholar clan, and the treatment of subordinates and servants was naturally different from the treatment of "peers", Chen Lin and his family did not sit and eat together It was indeed not in line with the etiquette of the scholar clan at that time, Chen Lin figured out the connection, and his anger gradually subsided.

Chen Lin is also a polite person, and he stood up: "Runan Chen Lin Chen Bozhi, Li Gongzi, please sit" Li Mao looked at the case, remembering that Zhou Cang and the others were in this position just now, and they didn't accept Chen Lin's kindness. Li Mao said again: "This inn is opened by the Li Mansion, and Chen Gongzi will not have to pay for it today, just now the slave said to a certain person, the horse in the courtyard is owned by Chen Gongzi?" ”

Chen Lin realized that it was not his own family that attracted this person, it was a horse, and horses were not raised in the south, so there was a caravan that the Chen family asked Lin De to sell horses to the north. Chen Lin was also unambiguous: "Exactly"

Li Mao was overjoyed, but before Li Mao could speak, the servant next to him raised his head and said, "My young master has taken a fancy to it, how much is it?" Chen Lin's anger started, no matter how good-tempered Chen Lin was, he was also a child of the scholar clan, a slave dared to be so domineering, and even more so Li Mao didn't care when he saw his own subordinates like this. Chen Lin glanced at Zhou Cang, Zhou Cang hated it for a long time, and when he saw Chen Lin making eyes, he felt a gust of wind passing, and the servant who made a sound covered his stomach and lay on the ground.

The people who ate and drank in the inn were stunned for a moment, and then everyone checked out and left. It was Li Mao, who screamed, pointed at Zhou Cang, and then pointed at Chen Lin, you couldn't speak for a long time, and finally shook your hand and turned away, walked to the family who was holding her stomach, and kicked it.

Chen Lin could clearly see it, Li Mao turned around and left with hatred in his eyes, Chen Lin didn't care, and then beckoned Zhou Cang and the others to take a seat, but Zhou Cang, Huang Yan and the others were no longer refused, and the Chen family was not stupid, not that they were afraid of others saying about themselves, but it was not good to tarnish the reputation of the eldest young master. Chen Lin had no choice but to call Xiao Er to make Zhou Cang, Huang Yan and others have their own seats. Chen Lin didn't know that this matter was looked at by one person from beginning to end.

After Chen Lin finished eating, he took out the post of Zhao Qian, the Taishou of Runan, handed it to Huang Yan and another Ding, and went to find the residence of Lu Zhi, the Taishou Lord, and posted a post saying that Chen Lin wanted to visit. Huang Yan and the others rode a horse, but Chen Lin didn't want to accept Li Mao's love, so he counted 500 yuan and went back to the room.

Chen Lin was in the room for a while, and then he heard Zhou Cang's voice outside, and then Zhou Cang came to knock on the door. Chen Lin opened the door and asked, only to see that the family who went with Huang Yan was also there, and said angrily: "Young Master, it was the very Li Gongzi just now, I saw that Huang Yan and I went to find Lord Taishou and wanted to rob me and other horses. ”

Zhou Cang next to him rolled up his sleeves: "The thief's mother, it's not a very good thing." ”

Chen Lin was also furious, and hurriedly went with everyone, and Huang Yan couldn't tell if there was any accident when it was too late. Chen Lin took out the horses, and the three members rode two, Zhou Cang had always been running, and soon came to the place where the incident occurred. I saw Huang Yan surrounded by four or five people, holding two horses in his hands, but for a while, those people couldn't help Huang Yan, but Li Mao was pointing and roaring beside him. Huang Yan's father is the "master" mentioned by Mrs. Chen, although Huang Yan is young and has little strength, he is not an ordinary person who can do martial arts.

Before Chen Lin gave the order, Zhou Cang had already launched the pair of "flying hairs" and crashed straight into the people surrounding Huang Yan, and with a bang, the two of them flew away. At this time, Chen Lin and the others also arrived, and everyone hurriedly stepped forward to check on Huang Yan, but it didn't matter, Huang Yan also followed. Seeing that Huang Yan was fine, the family returned to Chen Lin, got on the horse and stood beside Chen Lin. Huang Yan was just about to open his mouth to Chen Lin, but Chen Lin waved his hand to signal not to make a sound, which was still invisible.

The man was knocked into by Zhou Cang, and his accomplices hurriedly helped him up, but he couldn't stand, and he didn't dare to step forward for a while, but just returned to Li Mao. Chen Lin rode on the horse, looked at Li Mao coldly, and didn't speak, only saw that Li Mao was cautious, and the passers-by didn't go far, only looked around Chen Lin and Li Mao.

After all, Li Mao had a ghost in his heart, and when he saw the eyes of the people around him, he didn't want to lose face, so he pointed at Chen Lin and said: "I hurt my family, and I don't speak, it's so unreasonable." ”

Chen Lin was just about to speak, but there was a person in the crowd next to him, but it was the person in the previous inn. I saw that the person's face was like a crown of jade and his lips were greased, which made people so close, like bathing in peach blossoms, but this person said: "It is clear that robbing a horse is not an anti-dirty person", and after speaking, he smiled at Chen Lin, and Chen Lin hurriedly dismounted and returned the salute.

"Liu Xuande, Master Lu is no longer here, you still dare to do this." That Li Mao obviously recognized this person, Chen Lin heard this, this Liu Xuande was afraid that he had more entanglements than Li Mao in the past.

Chen Lin only saw Liu Xuande: "Master Lu is not there, but the righteousness of the world is there, and the people of the city are also there." ”

In the end, Li Mao left in shame, Chen Lin had a deep impression of Liu Xuande, Liu Xuande was modest, it was Chen Lin's temper, he was busy inviting Liu Xuande back to the inn, and he wanted to drink, and Liu Xuande did not refuse.

Chen Lin sat down with Liu Xuande, only to know that Liu Xuande was famous. This Liu Xuande opened his mouth: "Bei, a native of Zhuo County, is the queen of King Jing of Zhongshan." ”

When Chen Lin heard this, he hurriedly got up and bowed, but Liu Bei hurriedly held it up, and said: "Although Bei is the emperor, his family is in the middle of the road, and he can't afford to be a big gift from his son." ”

Chen Lin hurriedly said: "Runan Chen Lin Chen Bozhi, because of Zhao Taishou's recommendation, I want to come to Jiujiang County to find Lord Taishou Lu Zhi Lu Zigan to study, I don't want to just come to this city, there is this matter, and I will work hard to control Xuande." ”

Liu Bei heard what Chen Lin said, and thought to himself, this person can get the recommendation of Runan Taishou, and he is dressed extraordinarily, so he must get acquainted with each other, Chen Lin saw Liu Bei and said: "Oh, Bozhi is late." ”

It turned out that this Liu Bei was one of Lu Zhi's students, Liu Bei and his cousin Liu Lean, Liu Deran, Gongsun Zhan of Liaoxi, and Li Mao and Li Wenli, the four of them were Lu Zhi's students. Lu Zhi has resigned due to illness, and went back to his hometown five days ago to recuperate, Gongsun Zan is gone, and Liu Bei's brothers are also about to leave in the past two days.

If you want to say that Liu Bei is a person, his family is in the middle of the road, and he and his mother make a living by weaving straw shoes and straw mats. People don't like to talk much, joy and anger are invisible, don't like to read very much, but like to appreciate dogs and horses, music, beautiful clothes and other elegant things, if it is not for Liu to rely on his father's support, where can he come to Jiujiang to apprentice.

When Chen Lin heard this, he had no choice but to sigh. Chen Lin and Liu Bei drank and talked, very happy, Chen Lin felt that this person was a humble gentleman.

Liu Bei looked at Chen Lin's expression, seized the opportunity and said: "Bei and Bo Zhinian are similar, but it is better for the two to become brothers with different surnames." ”

When Chen Lin heard this, he was a little moved, and suddenly Zhou Cang shouted not far away: "Hahaha, drink" but Zhou Cang, Huang Yan and others were drinking. Chen Lin was a lot sobered up by this shout, and said to Liu Bei calmly and calmly: "Hehehe, why did Xuande act like such a layman, you and I have a heart-to-heart, why bother to do that false courtesy." As he spoke, he held Liu Bei's hand.

Liu Bei also laughed, but Chen Lin didn't know that Liu Bei sighed when he left the inn.

As soon as Liu Bei left, Zhou Cang Huang Yan and others immediately surrounded him, Huang Yan complained: "How can the eldest young master be like this, he almost broke a big thing, Liu Bei is deeply hidden, the eldest young master will intersect with this person in the future, be careful." Zhou Cang is even more: "Even after the king, but a villager, he also wants to be a brother and sister with the eldest young master." ”

Chen Lin knew that thanks to these two people today, he couldn't imagine that these two people could still get along, and Chen Lin was relieved. Remembering that Lu Zhi had already left, and offended Li Mao again, it was inconvenient to stay, so he said to the others: "Well, work and rest early, and I will return to Anyang tomorrow." ”

On the second day, Chen Lin and the others returned slowly, and they were just about to leave the Yin Tomb realm, but there was a group of people with black faces and knives, and they wanted to rob. Chen Lin saw that there were about seventeen or eighteen people, but they couldn't cry or laugh, and they never wanted to come to Jiujiang, but they were robbed twice.

Chen Lin and the others pulled out their swords, and they were not ambiguous, nor did they speak, they rushed when they hit their horses, Chen Lin and others were deeply taught by Huanglong, and the cavalry battle focused on impact. Zhou Cang had no horses, and he flew up his huge body and rushed over, which was even more terrifying. Needless to say, leaving seven corpses, the masked man ran away without a single one.

The family came to report and said: "Young Master, it's okay for me to wait, I cut down seven people, but why do these individuals have to cover their faces when they rob the road?" Chen Lin smiled: "Li Wenli has no mind" When Zhou Cang heard it, he shouted: "I knew that I had torn that goods"

Chen Lin looked at the knife in Zhou Cang's hand, thinking that he would definitely build a refined iron steel knife for Zhou Cang when he went back, Zhou Cang was powerful, and the knife should be heavier. asked Zhou Cang: "Zhou Cang, it's good to go back and fight a new knife with you, how much does it take to make it?" Chen Lin could see that the martial arts of Zhou Cang and Huang Yan should be the highest, and the weapons should also be heavier.

Zhou Cang listened: "It must be important and heavy, and it needs 80 pounds." Everyone laughed, they were all laughed at by Zhou Cang, Zhou Cang's weapons were not even as good as the knives of the Chen family, they were greedy for a long time, and they heard that they also had it, so they could pay it back. All the way back to Anyang, the six of them listened to Zhou Cang tell some interesting stories about picking and selling illicit salt, but they were not bored.
