Chapter 45: Old Man Lin
The book continued from the above, and the last book said that when the lottery was grouped, Old Man Lin unexpectedly protected Li Tianxin, who was named by Qingluan Zhenren in public, and other outer disciples. On the way to Sanqing Palace, the conversation between Old Man Lin and Qingluan was surprising, it turned out that this Old Man Lin was not an old man in his old age, but a young man who entered with Qingluan, and for some reason he became what he is now. Tianxin and the others, who were protected by Old Man Lin, decided to prepare a thank-you banquet for Old Man Lin out of gratitude. So it leads to the flowers, the sun and the moon are long, the past looks back on the vicissitudes of life, time flows eastward, and the independent mountains do not ask about the pine.
"Why haven't Hongying and Jinhong come back yet?" Li Tianxin sat on the tree and looked around.
"Will he be caught by Old Man Lin?" Huan Ting sat on the stone bench, fiddling with the dishes and chopsticks that came out of the dining hall on the stone table.
"No...," Li Tianxin grinned, really a little worried. If it weren't for the fear that Old Man Lin wouldn't come, he wouldn't have made such a decision. ”
"Don't worry, with Jinhong here, they will be fine." Du Zhen looked at the dishes on the table and drooled. "Tianxin, your skills are really good, you can open a restaurant."
"Are you sure these are all dishes that Old Man Lin likes to eat?" Huan Ting looked at Du Zhen's greedy face, and gave him a disdainful look. "Looking at you, how do I think these are more like your favorite dishes?"
"No, no, no, I specifically asked my father, it won't be wrong."
"Also, your father is an internal affairs officer of the Qianshan Sect after all, so he knows a little bit about it."
"Don't just know a little bit about it, do you know how old Old Man Lin is to be enlightened?" Du Zhen pretended to be mysterious.
"How old?"
"I'm betting on a hundred years old."
"He was enlightened at the age of twenty-seven." Du Zhen raised his hand from the plate and pinched the chicken feet of a lotus leaf chicken.
"Tsk!" When Huan Ting saw it, she slapped Du Zhen's hand with chopsticks and glared at him again. "Starving ghosts, no rules!"
"Hey, why are you so stingy?" Du Zhen rubbed his hands, looking aggrieved.
"What, you said Old Man Lin was only twenty-seven years old?" Li Tianxin was so excited that he almost didn't fall off the tree. "Master Fu didn't say that the appearance of those who cultivate immortals and attain enlightenment will always be locked in the year they attain enlightenment, and they will not age from then on. He's... Even if you are a teenager and an old adult, you are a little too anxious..."
"My father said that he and Qingluan Zhenren started in the same year, and they both worshiped under the Qi Sect Zixu Zhenren. Don't look at Old Man Lin who is not good-looking now, he was a graceful and beautiful young man at that time, the eldest son of the Marquis of Jinzhou, his qualifications and conduct are among the best, how many female disciples up and down Qianshan love him, even the eldest princess of Changning at that time came to Qianshan to see him. It's a pity that he is not interested in these worldly worlds, which hurts the heart of the eldest princess. ”
"Old man Lin?" Tianxin and Huan Ting's mouths grew up, and it was unimaginable that Du Zhen said those pictures.
"Well, I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it either." Du Zhen took advantage of Li Tianxin and Huan Ting's stupidity, quickly pinched a piece of beef and put it in his mouth. "However, he is not perfect. My father said that when Old Man Lin was young, like Tianxin, he was also a troublemaker, and he often caused trouble, and he was punished a lot. ”
"No, just say it, why bother me?" Li Tianxin raised his eyebrows. "Am I being mischievous, I'm doing chivalry!"
"Okay, okay, count me as a slip of the tongue."
"And how did he get to be the way he is?"
"Dad said that he had an accident when he went down the mountain, and when he was carried back, he had half of his life left, and he was already blessed by the Bodhisattva to be able to be saved. As for this... It seems to be related to the eldest princess, but no one knows what is going on. Du Zhen seemed to have tasted the sweetness, and wanted to reach out and pinch a piece of meat to eat, but was frightened back by Huan Ting's eyes, so he had to touch his nose in embarrassment.
"I can't imagine that Old Man Lin still has such a past." Tianxin jumped off the tree and sat next to Huan Ting.
Here, Li Tianxin and Huan Ting listened to Du Zhen tell about Old Man Lin's past. Hong Ying and Wei Jinhong, who were implementing the plan over there, were not so easy.
"Is Du Zhen's news inaccurate?" Hong Ying was masked, squatting on the edge of the cabinet, rummaging through something.
"No, I went with Du Zhen to find his father that day. His father said that the most precious thing for Old Man Lin is the hairpin of the eldest princess. A few days ago, his father came here to look for Old Man Lin, and happened to see him holding a hairpin in a daze, and then Old Man Lin saw someone coming, so he hurriedly put the hairpin into a delicate box. Wei Jinhong was also masked, rummaging through the drawer before the collapse.
"I really can't imagine that Old Man Li actually has a relationship with Princess Changning, it's too unexpected." Hongying couldn't help but sigh, people are not romantic teenagers, the princess of Changning - Li Jinwan, was dignified and gentle, resourceful, and had the reputation of being a wise woman among women. Later, he married into the Bohai Kingdom and became a generation of Ming queens, and never returned to the Central Plains. Such a woman, who would have thought that she would have a leg with Park Yuyuan, an old man Lin who is not good-looking.
"Stop gossiping, hurry up and find it, if Old Man Lin comes back in a while, what can we use as bait to lure him over?" Wei Jinhong closed the drawer and opened another one.
"Did you find it under the pillow?" Hongying stood up.
"I've found it, and as soon as I enter the house, I'll go through it first." Wei Jinhong kept moving.
"Where did you hide your hairpin, this dead old man?" Hongying sat on the stool, a little impatient.
"God knows, you won't wear it on you, will you?" Wei Jinhong suddenly realized.
"What, with you?" The red hero screamed. "Can we beat him, then?"
"Du Zhen's father said that Old Man Lin lost his cultivation back then, and he should..."
Hongying and Wei Jinhong suddenly looked in the direction of the door, only to see Old Man Lin holding a brocade box in his hand, looking at them in astonishment, probably he didn't expect that someone would come to his house to steal things.
"That's it, up!" The moment Hongying saw the brocade box, she flew up and pounced.
Seeing this, Jin Hong also stopped what he was doing and followed.
Hongying, who thought that she could grab the brocade box smoothly, pounced. "He, he has kung fu!"
When Wei Jinhong heard this, he stabilized his breath and began to attack cautiously. This old man Lin has made light achievements, his internal strength is amazing, and he is clearly a master. Usually he hides it deeply, no different from ordinary internal staff, according to his skills, he can't beat Li Tianxin, obviously he deliberately released water.
"What are you doing in my room?" Old man Lin didn't fight back, but easily resolved the moves of Wei Jinhong and Hongying.
"Damn, I can't get it!" Hongying gritted her teeth.
"You want what I have?" Old man Lin raised his eyebrows. "Who are you?"
"It's an old man from Bohai, let us get it!" Wei Jinhong had a plan.
"Impossible, she has long forgotten the past, how could she come to ask for this hairpin?" Although Old Man Lin said that he didn't believe it, his movements slowed down significantly.
Seeing this, Wei Jinhong knew that he had grabbed the seven inches of Old Man Lin, and he continued. "She actually never forgot that at that time, she deliberately lied to you!"
"What? Impossible, absolutely impossible. Old man Lin was a little at a loss.
Seeing this, Hongying also agreed. "She knew that you didn't have her in your heart at that time, and it was better to leave than to pester you and upset you. You don't know, at that time, she herself proposed to marry the Bohai Kingdom, wasn't it to leave the sad land of the Han Dynasty? ”
"No way, Master won't lie to me!" Old man Lin was a little flustered.
"It's now!" Wei Jinhong and Hongying made a color to each other, and the two of them attacked Old Man Lin at the same time, and went straight to the brocade box in his hand. Old man Lin was full of his past with Li Jinwan at the moment, and he tried to find some clues to refute what Hongying had just said.
"Got it!" Hongying rolled over and landed near the door.
"Without further ado, let's go!" Jin Hong was no longer entangled with Old Man Lin, and flew out of the house with Hongying, running in the direction of Tianxin and them.
Old man Lin came back to his senses, looked at his empty hands, and couldn't help but be a little crazy. He performed a light skill and chased him out. "Stop, you are not allowed to leave, what is going on, why did Awan want to go back?"
"Run! He's chasing him! Hongying looked back at the old Lin Tou, who was a little out of shape, and her scalp was a little numb. Let me tell you, if I am beaten in a while, I will definitely settle accounts with Li Tianxin! ”
"You still have time to talk, run!" Wei Jinhong was also a little scared, he never thought that Old Man Lin was so powerful, he was afraid that it would not end well for a while.
Over there, Hongying and Wei Jinhong were chased by Lao Lin Tou, and the three of Li Tianxin here had already looked at the autumn water.
"Why don't we eat first, I'm so hungry!" Du Zhen touched his gurgling belly.
"I'm hungry too." This time, Huan Ting didn't have an exit to block it, they had waited too long, and the sun was about to set.
"Then you can eat some first, and I will go and light the firewood and licorice, so that I can make a fire." Otherwise, the sun will go down in a while, and we can't stand the temperature at night. Li Tianxin was a little worried, and while she was lighting a fire, she looked at the path below the pavilion from time to time.
"Tianxin, Hongying, they won't really be arrested, right? It's been this hour, and it's a little strange. ”
"Impossible, Old Man Lin has lost all his spiritual power, in my father's words, he is no different from ordinary people, so what other spells will there be." Du Zhenmei gnawed on the pig's trotters. "What a scramble."
"Wait, you're saying he's lost his spiritual power?" Li Tianxin seems to have found a problem.
"Yes, it's true." Du Zhen licked the oil on his hands.
"Is Old Man Lin's internal strength still there?"
Du Zhen was speechless for a while.
"Tianxin asked you something, but you said it!" Huan Ting also felt that things were a little wrong.
"My dad didn't say this...."Du Zhen took the pig's trotters and sat there.
"Tianxin, Li Tianxin!" Halfway up the mountain, Hongying's shout came from.
Li Tianxin hurriedly flew up the tree and looked down. I saw Hongying and Wei Jinhong running in front in embarrassment, and not far behind, Old Man Lin's ghost-like figure was in hot pursuit. Tianxin was shocked. "Damn, is Old Man Lin so powerful?"
