CHAPTER 40
The next day, Lin Huaizhu yawned and came out of the guest room, and when she went down to the first floor, she realized that what happened at last night's auction had spread throughout Heyuan City, and she saw Jimo Weisheng and Chen Yixin sitting at a table against the wall, and her steps automatically walked towards them while listening to the words of others, for fear of missing a word.
The tables and chairs in the lobby were almost full, and the monks at each table were almost all from Guxi Dao.
"That Xingchen Hall is also a faction with a long history in the Immortal Sect, but I didn't expect that there would be a disciple who cultivates this kind of evil skill, it's really a shame for the Immortal Sect!"
"That is to say, the Star Hall is also a clear stream among many sects, the sect is upright, the rules are strict, and it has always been the purpose of the sect to be right, and it is also a small reputation in the cultivation world, and the hundred schools of Xianmen are even more interested in this point, in previous years, various competitions will let the Star Palace, so that they will not return empty-handed, and now, relying on the four words of honesty and strictness to earn the reputation of spirit stones and cultivation resources, it can be regarded as making the Guxi Dao people stink alone." There was a hint of schadenfreude in the words.
Lin Huaizhu couldn't help but glance at the person who spoke, and found that it was a tall and thin man with prominent cheekbones on his face and old clothes.
Some monks in the cultivation realm just can't see that the monks of other sects are better off than themselves, and they always feel that it is the other party that takes up most of the resources that makes them so poor.
Lin Huaizhu shook his head, no longer looked at the man, and continued to listen to what others said.
"How do you know that what the scroll says is true? Perhaps, someone caught the Guxi Dao people and maliciously slandered them! ”
"Malicious slander? This fellow Daoist, your news is too far behind! Don't you know that in the middle of the night last night, someone secretly handed the book recording the crimes of the Guxi Dao people to the City Lord's Mansion? It not only clearly stated the process of his arrest of female cultivators to collect yin and yang, but also wrote out some of the female cultivators with names and surnames who were caught by him, indicating where and when they were caught, when they died, and where the corpses were, very detailed, according to the places mentioned above, two female corpses have been dug up outside Heyuan City this morning, and they seem to be disciples of Tianyin Pavilion! ”
Tianyin Pavilion is a school of music cultivation, music cultivation is to enter the Tao with vocal music, and the natal magic weapon is also related to musical instruments, but because the instrument is mainly assisted, the attack power is average, and the male cultivator generally does not look down on it, so the disciples of Tianyin Pavilion are more female and less male, and each has extraordinary appearances, even if it is the most ordinary, it can also end up with a beautiful comment.
This is because vocal music can cultivate one's self-cultivation, even if it is ordinary, after practicing in it for more than ten years, the demeanor and conversation temperament have been improved, and it can add a lot of color to the face.
The monk sitting in the hall didn't have much surprise on his face when he heard that the corpse was a disciple of Tianyin Pavilion.
Everyone knows that in the cultivation world, only the female disciples of one faction and family are the most popular among male cultivators, and they are also the most worried about marrying.
This faction is Tianyin Pavilion, and the family is the Wen family, so once this kind of thing happens, the female disciples of this faction and family are also the most likely to be targeted.
Lin Huaizhu had already sat down between Jimo Weisheng and Chen Yixin at this time, and the two of them noticed Lin Huaizhu.
This table was quiet before, Jimo Weisheng was not a person who talked much, and Chen Yi wanted to communicate more with this senior brother, but after seeing that he only replied to her with "um, oh, I don't know" in every sentence, he simply gave up this idea and ate his breakfast quietly.
In the thirty years since she entered the sect, either she was in retreat, or Jimo Weisheng was in retreat, and she couldn't touch a piece, and the words she said added up to no more than ten sentences.
After Lin Huaizhu sat down, Chen Yixin glanced at the person beside him, and hesitated in his heart whether to show familiarity.
After all, it was the senior sister who brought her back to Liangyi Peak back then, and it seems unreasonable not to take the initiative to communicate.
But in fact, she and this senior sister are also less separated from each other, and the situation is not much better than that of Jimo Weisheng, so she is a little hesitant.
However, when she saw the casual look on Lin Huaizhu's face, it was obvious that she was out of the world, and she still dispelled this idea.
The little unconvincing in her heart still made her feel a little disgusted with Lin Huaizhu.
Lin Huaizhu didn't notice Chen Yixin's careful thoughts, she was listening intently to everyone's discussions, and she didn't even pay attention to the chopsticks being bitten in her mouth for a long time.
The lobby was silent for a moment, and only then did a young male cultivator ask, "I don't know, which two fairies were killed?" ”
This is also what everyone is most concerned about, everyone pricked up their ears to listen, and Lin Huaizhu is no exception.
However, the monk who had mentioned it earlier didn't know much, and he shook his head and said, "I also happened to be talking to the patrol guards on the road, and I don't know the details. ”
Lin Huaizhu supported his cheek with one hand, looked at the table in front of him without focus, and always felt that something was wrong, and felt a little uneasy.
She combed through the clues she had gotten to see if she could find anything out of them.
First of all, at the auction, this Guxidao man had his limbs and male belongings cut off and put on display in a box, and the scroll that was unfolded also gave the reason why he would suffer this disaster, thinking that the murderer was either a person who had been harmed by him but escaped and found a chance to take revenge, or a relative, friend or other close person among the nuns he had killed.
Secondly, she couldn't figure it out a little, although she said that she had to be invited to enter before the auction began, but she didn't care if she went out, since the other party had already unknowingly put the Guxi Dao people into the box, then he just fled immediately after he finished it, why stay there and wait for someone to catch him?
After all, no matter who wants to go out before the opening, no one will stop them.
Moreover, the other party's choice to announce the Guxi Dao people in the auction was obviously also well thought out, and there was only one purpose, that is, to make things bigger!
She was just about to continue to peel back the cocoon and sort out the clue, but suddenly several calling voices came from her ears, which woke her up from her contemplation.
"Senior sister, senior sister!"
Lin Huaizhu came back to her senses and saw that Jimo Weisheng and Chen Yixin were staring at her, and the voice just now was called by Chen Yixin.
"What's wrong?" Seeing that his iQue was grabbed by his junior brothers and sisters, Lin Huaizhu scratched his face and said with a somewhat embarrassed dry smile.
"I've finished eating with my senior brother and are going back to the guest room, what about you, senior sister." Chen Yixin tried to soften her tone a little, but she was not very convinced by this senior sister in her heart, so her speech was a little stiff, which attracted a side glance from Jimo Weisheng.
But he quickly withdrew it, and no one noticed it.
"Me?" Lin Huaizhu was stunned for a moment, his eyes moved to the plate on the table, and then he realized that he hadn't moved a few mouthfuls of breakfast at all, and hurriedly waved his hand at them and said, "Don't worry about me, I'll sit down for a while...... By the way, Master? Is he still upstairs? ”
also suddenly remembered that he hadn't seen Qin Jianglan until now, so Lin Huaizhu asked by the way.
She estimated that the master was either meditating in the room or going out, and he was definitely not asleep anyway.
"Master went out, saying that he was going to the secret realm of Taibai Mountain to have a look, and let us wait for him to come back in the inn today."
When Jimo Weisheng heard this, he glanced at the little junior sister again, but he still didn't speak, his eyes were withdrawn, and he sat quietly and listened to them.
In fact, what Qin Jianglan said before going out was to ask them to tell Lin Huaizhu that they would stay in the inn today and not go anywhere until he came back.
Because he still knew his three apprentices, he knew that Chen Yixin and Jimo Weisheng would not leave the inn casually without his permission, but Lin Huaizhu was not necessarily, so he had to instruct carefully.
It's just that when Chen Yixin said this, he deliberately added himself and Jimo Weisheng, so that it sounded like the master reminded the three apprentices, not just Lin Huaizhu.
Lin Huaizhu listened to her relay, and understood in his heart that the master was worried that yesterday's auction would affect the secret realm of Taibai Mountain, and he had to take a look in person to rest assured.
Although everyone said that Qingyuan Daojun was indifferent and alienated, and it was not easy to get close, but in fact, when I really got along with him, I knew that he took great care of the people he cared for, and he belonged to a person who was cold and warm on the outside, plus Qin Muyu was his only relative in the world, so he naturally valued it more.
Lin Huaizhu watched them go upstairs, bowed his head and concentrated on breakfast.
She and Jimo Weisheng are both in the foundation building period, they have already opened the valley, and they don't need three meals a day, she will go downstairs for breakfast, also because she likes to eat.
And Chen Yixin is now at the eighth level of Qi refining, and he must eat, so it is not surprising that he appears here.
As for why Jimo Weisheng appeared, she guessed that Chen Yixin didn't dare to go downstairs to eat alone, so she called Jimo Weisheng to accompany her.
Why don't you ask yourself to be accompanied by this senior sister, I'm afraid it's because everyone in Liangyi Peak knows that she has the habit of lying in bed......
After breakfast, Lin Huaizhu returned to the guest room to meditate, although she has never been interested in cultivation, it does not mean that she really does not practice, but compared with those few active and hard-working, she seems lazy, but she will still complete her daily homework.
The inn is set up with a gathering spirit array, which is full of spiritual energy, Lin Huaizhu pulls spiritual energy into the body from the outside world, travels along the meridians in the body, enters the dantian along the meridians to strengthen it, and then extracts the spiritual energy from the dantian to swim around the meridians, and finally returns to the dantian, this is the cycle for a week, meditation and cultivation is to expand the meridians in this way, strengthen the dantian, and increase the aura.
If you are in a place where the aura is thin or there is no aura that can be drawn into the body, and you can't use external objects, you can only extract the aura from the dantian and travel around the meridians to cultivate, which is called the small perimeter circle in the cultivation world, because there is no introduction of heaven and earth aura, and the effect is very slow only by the cultivation provided by your own dantian, which is why the spiritual vein is so important.
If you don't have a strong aura, I'm afraid that you won't be able to rise to the foundation building period even if your lifetime is exhausted.
After Lin Huaizhu finished cultivating, he opened his eyes and saw that it was already night.
Yin Li: "You're quite focused this time, and you can cultivate until dark before waking up." ”
Lin Huaizhu didn't expect that he could cultivate for more than half a day in this cultivation, and he was also very surprised.
She got up and got down, straightened her dress, and prepared to open the door and leave.
"Where are you going?" Yin Li asked.
"I heard that this Heyuan City sauce duck tastes unique, and the most authentic store is not far from the inn, I'll try it, and if it's delicious, I'll pack some for the master and my younger brothers and sisters to bring back." Thinking that he would be able to eat the food he had in mind right away, Lin Huaizhu replied to her happily.
"Why do you still love to eat so much!"
"So what, if I can't eat after the valley, then what is the use of my long years? It's not as happy as the people of the world. Lin Huaizhu snorted unconvinced.
Yin Li couldn't help but roll her eyes, and she was also very helpless for her.
So Lin Huaizhu gently closed the door and walked towards the famous sauce duck shop.
Chen Yixin just pushed open the door, and happened to see Lin Huaizhu's back going downstairs, she didn't think much about it, and followed downstairs after closing her door.
It's just that when she arrived at the lobby on the first floor, she glanced away, but she didn't see Lin Huaizhu's figure, Chen Yi hurriedly pulled the shopkeeper on the side and asked, "Little Er, did you see a woman in aqua blue clothes who just went downstairs?" Where did she go? ”
"Ah, you said the fairy? I saw her leave the inn and go that way. Xiao Er pointed to the direction on the right hand side outside the door and said.
Senior sister is out of the inn?
Chen Yixin frowned slightly, and was just about to turn around, when he saw Qin Jianglan appear at the door of the inn, and hurriedly walked towards him, and said happily: "Master, are you back?" ”
"Hmm." Qin Jianglan nodded at her and answered.
He inspected Taibai Mountain today and didn't find anything abnormal, and there was also Yanhe, a monk from the Transformation Stage, who was in charge of the secret realm, and he came back with peace of mind after confirming the safety of Taibai Mountain.
Chen Yixin saw that he was about to go upstairs, and hurriedly followed behind him and said, "Master, I just saw Senior Sister leave the inn......
Qin Jianglan paused, stopped, turned around and said, "Gone out?" ”
Chen Yixin nodded.
Qin Jianglan shook his head helplessly, knowing where she was probably going, he didn't care about her anymore, and directly told Chen Yixin: "Now that something has just happened in the city, it is not a peaceful time, you ...... No more than others, never leave the inn, you know? ”
What is happening now is the fact that the female cultivator was arrested and used as a Ding Furnace, Chen Yixin has a pure yin physique, so he should naturally be more careful.
Chen Yi looked at Qin Jianglan with admiration, and replied obediently when he heard this: "The disciple knows, the disciple will stay in the inn and not go anywhere." ”
Although she had to hide in her courtyard to concentrate on cultivation in order to cover up this physique, and she didn't have much contact with Qin Jianglan, in her heart, Qin Jianglan was the best master in the world!
From the outside, he seems to be no more kind and easy-going than other people's masters, but he is dedicated to his apprentices, not only in cultivation, he is also a very protective master, as long as the master is there, she knows that she is protected.
Qin Jianglan didn't say anything more, turned around and went upstairs.
