Just when Wu Ming was doubting in his heart, he saw that Ling Hu Chong had already come to the door of the east wing.

At this time, someone in the room shouted, "Who's outside?" ”

Wu Ming heard that it was Lin Pingzhi's voice.

Ling Hu Chong hurriedly said, "Senior Brother Lin, it's me." ”

Lin Pingzhi seemed a little surprised, and immediately opened the door and said, "Senior brother, why are you here?" Come in and sit. ”

Wu Mingye could see things, and he could see Lin Pingzhi's expression clearly in the dark.

It seems to be different from the original book, Lin Pingzhi seems to have a pretty good relationship with Ling Hu Chong.

It turned out that after Ling Hu Chong won the favor of his little junior sister Yue Lingshan, this journey was naturally completely different from the decadence of the original book, showing his superb skills and the demeanor of the senior brother of the Huashan faction everywhere.

Not long after Lin Pingzhi joined Huashan, he wanted to be recognized by everyone, and he was born in a family of darts and was very good at dealing with people, so he understood that it was extremely important to have a good relationship with Linghu Chong, the senior brother.

Lin Pingzhi knew that Linghu Chong was good at drinking, and he secretly pulled the other party to drink along the way.

And Ling Hu Chong, who was not happy with alcohol, gradually accepted Lin Pingzhi and regarded him as a good brother.

Of course, Wu Ming naturally didn't know because he had been in Jiangnan for the past few months, but he was delicate, and just looking at the expressions of the two of them, he probably guessed the general possibility.

After being welcomed into the room by Lin Pingzhi, Ling Hu Chong took out a wine gourd from his arms and said: "This is a famous good wine in Fuzhou City, I specially called to drink with you, Senior Brother Lin." ”

When Wu Ming heard this, he laughed in his heart, Ling Hu Chong came here to do Lin Pingzhi's ideological work, otherwise how could he come over at night?

At this time, I only listened to Lin Ping's words: "Senior brother, you are really too polite. It's okay, I still have some dry goods here, so let's have a good drink. ”

Lin Pingzhi said, even if he took out peanuts and cooked beef, there were two small cups of drinking.

After Linghu poured the wine, the two of them drank it.

While drinking, the two chatted about the gossip in the pie, and they looked happy, which made Wu Ming, who was hidden in the shadows, stunned.

However, Wu Ming knew that Lin Pingzhi and Ling Hu Chong would never be good brothers, and now the situation of the two of them can be described by an idiom, that is, vanity and wrongdoing.

Of course, Ling Hu Chong is extremely righteous, and it may be true that he pays sincerely, but Lin Pingzhi should definitely not, Wu Ming can be very sure of this.

After a few drinks, Ling Hu Chong really mentioned the purpose of this trip.

Ling Hu Chong sighed and said, "Senior Brother Lin, you should know the relationship between me and my little junior sister. ”

Lin Pingzhi nodded and said, "Senior Brother, not only do I know the relationship between you and Senior Sister Yue, but who in our whole sect doesn't know?" By the way, what do you mean by that? ”

Ling Hu Chong was slightly embarrassed at first, and then coughed dryly: "There are some things that I shouldn't have said, but considering that we are good brothers, if it is for some reason to lead zhì to have a disagreement, it is extremely inappropriate." ”

The more Lin Pingzhi listened, the more confused he became, and immediately said: "Senior brother, in the past few months, thanks to your many times of care and advice, Pingzhi is very grateful, if you have anything, just say it, I will do it." ”

"Good brother, I really didn't misunderstand you!" Ling Hu Chong was very happy, and even briefly recounted to Lin Pingzhi the content of the conversation between the master and the master that he had overheard in the afternoon.

Lin Pingzhi was a little embarrassed for a moment, and immediately swore and said: "Senior brother, although I have always envied your relationship with Senior Sister Yue, I have absolutely nothing to think about Senior Sister in my heart. You can rest assured that even if Master mentions this matter to me, I will never do such a thing to break you up. ”

Linghu Chong said: "Senior Brother Lin, then thank you very much." By the way, listen to Shan'er, you have been staying in Xiangyang's old mansion every night recently, but you are looking for the sword spectrum of warding off evil spirits handed down by your ancestors? ”

Lin Pingzhi smiled awkwardly and was noncommittal.

Linghu Chong said: "In the past few months, my swordsmanship has improved greatly, and even the master seems to suspect that I have taken your Lin family's sword spectrum, Senior Brother Lin, don't you doubt me?" ”

It turned out that in addition to eavesdropping on Yue Buqun's intention to marry his daughter, Ling Hu Chong also heard his master's suspicion of his swordsmanship.

It's just that he once promised Uncle Feng Tai (Wu Ming pretending) that he couldn't tell the other party's secrets, so he couldn't tell the origin of those swordsmanship, and could only say something with a clear conscience.

Wu Ming laughed secretly after hearing this, Lin Pingzhi must be suspicious, but he, like Yue Buqun, is a hypocrite who is very deep in the city, so he naturally does not show his appearance.

I only heard Lin Pingzhi shake his head and said: "Senior brother, how can I doubt you, if you want to take away our Lin family's sword spectrum, then you can hide the last time you saw my father, and you don't have to relay my father's last words to me." ”

Ling Hu Chong was very moved when he heard this, and immediately said: "Those last words sound a little strange, don't you suspect that I am talking nonsense?" ”

Lin Pingzhi shook his head and said: "This side of Xiangyang's old mansion is extremely secret, if it wasn't for my father telling you personally, you would definitely not know about this place, so senior brother, I believe you." ”

Ling Hu Chong raised his glass and said, "Senior Brother Lin, for the sake of this trust, we have made this last cup. ”

After the two clinked glasses, they were all clean.

After finishing it, Ling Hu Chong said again: "Senior Brother Lin, I've been thinking about it these days, if I can't help you find the relics left by your ancestors, I won't be able to clear my suspicions." So, if you don't mind, then I'll help you find it tonight. ”

Lin Ping's heart was shocked, but on the surface, he shook his head and smiled: "Senior brother's kindness, of course I won't mind." The elder brother is well-informed and resourceful, and I thank you first. ”

While the two were talking, Wu Ming suddenly heard two night walkers quietly coming in the distance.

Wu Ming hurriedly hid to the side, looked secretly, and found that these two night walkers were okay, one was a white-haired old man, and the other was a bald old man.

Wu Ming suddenly remembered that these two people seemed to be from the Songshan faction, and they died at the hands of Ling Hu Chong in the original book.

When the two old men came to the vicinity, they quietly hid in the vicinity.

If Wu Ming wanted to deal with them, he could naturally take their lives without knowing it.

However, Wu Ming thought of some of the plots of the original book, but he was not in a hurry to deal with them at this time.

At this time, Ling Hu Chong and Lin Pingzhi in the room were unaware that there were two more people peeping at them outside.

Lin Pingzhi said: "Senior brother, according to what you relayed, I have searched all the cellars in the past few days, and I have not found any valuable ancestral heirlooms at all. Did my father say anything else at the time? ”

Ling Hu Chong shook his head and said: "No, your father said at that time that the things in the cellar of the old house in Xiangyang Lane, Fuzhou are the ancestral things of the Lin family, and they must be kept well, but your great-ancestor Yuantu Gong has left a testament, and all his descendants must not look at it, otherwise there will be endless disasters, and you must remember it well." After saying this, he closed his eyes and said nothing else, and I can swear with my life on this. ”

Lin Pingzhi hurriedly shook his head and said, "I naturally believe in Senior Brother's words, you don't have to swear." ”

Wu Mingyin laughed secretly in the dark, saying that it was hidden in the cellar, but in fact, the original book was later found on the roof of the Buddhist hall, so it can be seen that either Lin Zhennan left a hand when he was dying, and he was afraid that he would not be a person. Either Lin Zhennan has never seen the ancestral heirloom at all, but retells the last words of the previous generation, as for what happened, I am afraid that I will have to ask Jin Lao.

(Author's note: There are three versions of Xiaoao Jianghu, the first version is the old house cellar in Sunflower Lane, the second version is the old house cellar in Xiangyang Lane, and the third version does not mention the word cellar, which shows that Jin Lao is aware of this BUG.) This book is in accordance with the second edition and is hereby informed. ）

Linghu said: "Since there is no one in the cellar, what about the other places?" ”

Lin Pingzhi shook his head and said, "I don't know how many times I've searched for other places, but I'm almost three feet old." ”

Linghu Chong sighed slightly: "Your father's last words mentioned that it should not be flipped through, it is obviously very likely to be a book-like thing, have you ever looked for it in the study?" ”

Lin Pingzhi said: "There is no study in my old house, but there is an account room, and I have searched carefully, but I still found nothing." ”

Linghu Chong said: "In addition to these two places, where are there more important things that can be flipped through?" ”

Lin Pingzhi said: "That is the Buddhist hall in the old house, there are many Buddhist scriptures in it, and I have read it carefully, and there are no clues." ”

Ling Hu Chong suddenly remembered that it was rumored in the rivers and lakes that the ancestor of the Lin family, Yuantu Gong, later became a monk, so would the sword spectrum he left behind be hidden in the Buddhist hall in a special way? Immediately after that, he remembered the story that the master had told him back then, so he immediately said, "Senior Brother Lin, I have an idea, let's go and try it." ”

Lin Pingzhi was surprised: "Senior brother, what are you doing with water?" ”

Linghu Chong said: "When I was a child, I heard a story from Master that there was a kind of grass soaked in acid for writing, and when it dried, the handwriting would disappear, but if it was re-soaked, the handwriting would reappear. ”

When Lin Ping heard this, he was immediately a little excited, and immediately said, "This is very likely, you might as well give it a try." ”

So the two of them brought water to the Buddha hall. At first, Ling Hu Chong refused to enter in order to avoid suspicion, but Lin Pingzhi sincerely invited him, and he entered it in order to clear his suspicions.

After the two entered the Buddhist hall, they began to experiment.

At this time, Wu Ming, who was hidden in the shadows, heard another person quietly coming in the distance, this person's martial arts were obviously higher than the two old men who came in front, which could be seen from the fact that when he came to the vicinity, the two old men of the Songshan faction were unaware.

When this person came closer, Wu Ming was surprised to find that he was Ling Hu Chong's master Yue Buqun.

Looking at his familiar appearance, he should have come to the Lin family's old house in Xiangyang Lane these days.

It's a pity that the evil sword spectrum is not a good thing, and whoever gets caught in it is unlucky.

Wu Ming smiled secretly in his heart: "Yue Lao'er, since you like the evil sword spectrum so much, I will fulfill you tonight." ”
