Chapter 266: Facing the Valley of the Holy Doctor (20)
The cool breeze was blowing, the twilight was approaching, and the eleven eagle guards knelt neatly, their upper bodies were straight, and the long swords that came out of their necks were connected into a dazzling silver light, how magnificent this scene was!
Yin Lingyue only noticed Lian Jing's indifference, Lian Jing's ruthlessness, and the loyalty of the Eagle Guard, but Mo Yuan was keenly aware of the heartache that flashed in Lian Jing's eyes, although there were not many people in the Eagle Guard, but everyone in it was carefully selected and carefully cultivated by Lian Jing, and each of them poured his full effort into it, and the greatest value of the Eagle Guard was to dedicate himself to protecting the entire Holy Medicine Valley, rather than apologizing for his sins with death now.
Just by virtue of Lian Jing's flash of heartache, Mo Yuan knew that Lian Jing was absolutely unwilling to let the Eagle Guard he had personally cultivated die like this, but his principles did not allow him to have the slightest soft-heartedness, and Mo Yuan knew that there would inevitably be a turn for the better in this matter.
Mo Yuan turned around again and found that Yin Lingyue was looking at him anxiously, this girl was naturally in a hurry, but she didn't dare to speak rashly to dissuade Lian Jing, for fear that her words and deeds would be self-defeating.
Mo Yuan nodded gently at Yin Lingyue, signaling her to rest assured that everything would be left to him.
Yin Lingyue was affirmed by Mo Yuan, and finally put her mind at ease, she believed that Mo Yuan would definitely be able to do it.
Mo Yuan said very seriously to Lian Jing: "Senior Lian Jing, now is the time to employ people, the external troubles have not been eliminated, and the internal strife has started first, it is really not a wise move, besides, this time Luling is executed, we only brought a hundred eagle guards, and the people are already very scarce, so we really shouldn't lose at this moment." ”
The rest of the Eagle Guards saw Mo Yuan's words of persuasion, and hurriedly echoed: "Yes, my lord, for us Eagle Guards, it is a great shame to hunt down and kill in fear of crime, for the sake of my subordinates who swear to follow you, I beg you to be merciful outside the law." ”
Lian Jing didn't look at the eagle guard who was kneeling on the ground, but looked at Mo Yuan and said, "What do you think?" ”
Lian Jing still didn't use honorifics, and even used you directly, which was completely a title for juniors or peers, but Mo Yuan noticed the looseness in Lian Jing's words, so he said, "Let them atone for their sins." ”
"What about this kid?" Lian Jing pointed at Xiao Rui and asked awkwardly.
"Let him stay with me, I will keep an eye on him at all times, and if there is anything unusual about him, I will not tolerate him." Mo Yuan assured.
Lian Jing didn't speak anymore, and he didn't say whether it was good or bad, but he just had a gloomy face, didn't look at the eagle guards, and turned around and left.
After Lian Jing walked away, all the eagle guards were still stunned and at a loss.
Mo Yuan said to them, "Everyone get up!" ”
All the eagle guards looked at Mo Yuan in unison, motionless, as if they had been petrified, obviously stupid.
Mo Yuan explained: "Even Senior Jing didn't say anything, he just acquiesced to my statement, but he couldn't pass his own level, so he calmed down, that is to say, this matter is like this." ”
Everyone finally understood, and then they helped each other to stand up.
An eagle guard walked up to Mo Yuan's side, saluted respectfully, and said, "Little master, what should we do now?" ”
Mo Yuan said: "Let's set up camp on the spot, it's already dark, Lian Jing's predecessors said that it is dangerous to go to Luling at night, it seems that we have to rest at the bottom of the mountain for one night." ”
The Eagle Guard then asked, "That little master, we adults ...... him"
Eagle Guard's words were not finished, but Mo Yuan already knew what he wanted to ask, "Let Senior Lian Jing calm down by himself, and when he comes back, it's best not to mention the incident just now, so be it." ”
"Yes, little master, my subordinates understand."
The eagle guards soon began to set up their tents, and Yin Lingyue couldn't help much, so they sat next to Mo Yuan on a bluestone slab and chatted.
"Xiao Yuan, you are really powerful, just a few words made Lian Jing's predecessors change their minds and keep the eleven eagle guards." Yin Lingyue's tone was full of admiration.
Mo Yuan shook his head, Yin Lingyue only felt confused, and wondered why Mo Yuan shook his head? I heard Mo Yuan explain: "Yueyue, it's not that I'm powerful, it's because Senior Lian Jing can't bear to let those eleven eagle guards die like this from the bottom of his heart, what I said is just to give him a step down." ”
"Oh, I see, but Xiao Yuan, how do you know that Senior Lian Jing will listen to you?"
"Because of my identity, although Lian Jing's predecessors don't believe in you and me, but our identity is there, this is an indisputable fact, even if he doesn't like us anymore, he has to admit that we are his little masters, in the hearts of the Eagle Guards, our status is higher than Lian Jing, and I will come forward to solve this matter, whether it really violates the principles of the Eagle Guard, Lian Jing has to comply."
"I understand this, but I still don't know a little, why it is difficult to go to Luling at night, what is so special about this Luling?"
The question that Yin Lingyue asked was also a doubt in Mo Yuan's heart, but unfortunately the sentence that Mo Yuan asked Lian Jing was brought over by Lian Jing with a nod, although Mo Yuan felt strange, it was inconvenient to ask again.
"I'm afraid this question will only be known if I have asked Lian Jing's seniors, after all, we are still very unfamiliar with most of the places in the Holy Medicine Valley."
Yin Lingyue thought about it, if Mo Yuan knew, he would have told her a long time ago, to put it bluntly, for the Holy Medicine Valley, the two of them were still just strangers.
"Forget it." Yin Lingyue said, "Why do you want to do so much, you won't know when the time comes, alas, it would be nice if it was the grizzly senior who walked with us, although it was embarrassing to say this, but I still have to admit that I felt stunned when I saw that Lian Jing senior, and I always felt that his eyes were so unfriendly when he looked at us." ”
Mo Yuan rubbed the broken hair in front of Yin Lingyue's forehead and said, "Senior Lian Jing is actually not a bad person, he is just not good at expressing himself, it will be good to get familiar with it in the future." ”
Yin Lingyue spread her hands and said, "I hope." ”
After the tent was set up, after a simple meal of dry food, everyone went into the tent to rest.
As the only girl in the team, Yin Lingyue has never enjoyed any privileges delicately, whether it is when she is in a hurry or when she is resting in a tent, she has not let her fellow travelers feel that she is a burden.
If you want to say that she is in trouble, it is just Mo Yuan alone, when she really can't walk, it is Mo Yuan who carries her, Yin Lingyue has become more and more accustomed to being carried by Mo Yuan, there is no initial awkwardness at all, when she sets up a tent to rest, she is in the same room with Mo Yuan, not like a girl's house at all.
Although the eagle guards didn't understand why their valley lord would choose such a girl as an apprentice, after just a few days of getting along, they also really liked this girl, and they were convinced that this very beautiful girl was definitely not a vase for nothing.
