"Sixth brother, you don't have to worry too much about the next competition, as long as you are lucky, you should be able to pass smoothly. ”

"Yes, the fifth sister is right. Yuan Yun echoed: "Among the eight people who have been promoted this time, except for you, only one Wang Hao and Yang Zhe are masters of the land list, and the others are all masters of the dragon list, as long as you are lucky and don't touch them, it will definitely be no problem to advance to the top four." ”

"It's not as simple as you think. At this time, Xu Ming spoke again: "There is one thing you must figure out, whether it is Yang Zhe or the other disciples of the Heart Cultivation Pavilion who participated in the competition, they all represent their own masters. To put it simply, it was their master who wanted to obtain the Nine Yuan Pill. However, some people are well aware of the strength of their apprentices and know that it will be difficult to win, so they will use some means. ”

"Means?

Xu Ming said lightly: "Except that it won't kill you, any means will be used, so you have to be careful." Try not to go out for these two days, we will leave one or two people with you just in case. ”

"That...... Second brother, the matter shouldn't be as serious as you said, right? If they really want to use means, won't Tianji Pavilion take care of it?" Ling Chen said.

"Why should they care?" Xu Ming pointed to his head and said, "You have to remember that a smart mind is sometimes more important than strength, and the Heart Cultivation Pavilion is not a place to cultivate martial artists, what they want is talents." In addition to martial arts, there must also be a superior mind. ”

"I see. Ling Chen nodded and said, "Second brother, don't worry, I will protect myself." ”

As he spoke, there was a knock on the door outside the room.

Wei Jiahao got up and opened the door, and when he saw someone coming from the door, he hurriedly got out of the way and shouted towards the house: "Sixth brother, the pavilion master is here." ”

Seeing Su Mei walking alone, Qiu Yong and the others suddenly realized that she was here to find Ling Chen, so they got up one after another and said, "Pavilion Master, you talk slowly, we won't bother you." ”

Su Mei thanked her, and after everyone left, she came to Ling Chen's side and sat down, and said straight to the point: "I want to know how my grandfather is doing, can you tell me about it?"

"Your grandfather is doing well, leisurely, don't worry about him. Ling Chen said a few words briefly, then changed his words and asked, "Miss Su, why did Old Su suddenly leave the Yangxin Pavilion and disappear back then?" You are his granddaughter, so you must know more about this matter. ”

Su Mei shook his head and sighed lightly: "To be honest, I don't know why grandpa left suddenly, he didn't say a word to me when he left, so he left quietly." If it weren't for Elder Du finding out that he wasn't in the Heart Cultivation Pavilion, I wouldn't have known that he was gone. At that time, according to my speculation and that Du Lao, I thought that my grandfather might be about to reach the limit, so he quietly left Tianji Pavilion. Grandpa knew that if he died, Tianji Pavilion would become difficult to manage. Therefore, only by dying outside can he let Tianji Pavilion continue to remain the same. For so many years, I have always thought that my grandfather had passed away, if it wasn't for you bringing the news of my grandfather today, I would ......" Speaking of this, Su Mei's eyes were full of tears, and she was so excited that she couldn't speak.

Ling Chen hurriedly took out a tissue from the table, handed it to Su Mei's hand, and comforted: "Don't think too much about it, I believe that Su Lao left for his own reasons." Moreover, Su Lao is not like that kind of unsympathetic person, he must have his own hardships, you are his granddaughter, he will meet you sooner or later. ”

"I ...... I don't have anything ......" Su Mei wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and said softly: "I just want grandpa to know that I have tried not to disappoint him all these years." ”

"Don't worry, the next time I see Su Lao, I will definitely tell him. ”

Under Ling Chen's persuasion, Su Mei gradually stopped her tears, she put down the tissue in her hand, looked at Ling Chen and said: "I don't know what the reason for grandpa to call you to participate in the martial arts competition, I don't want to know so much, I just want to remind you that this kind of martial arts competition is not only about strength, but also about means, as long as you don't get killed, Tianji Pavilion will not limit it so much, so you must be careful." ”

"I know. Ling Chen replied with a smile. Xu Ming had already reminded him, and Su Mei reminded him again, it seemed that he really had to pay attention.

After sending Su Mei away, Ling Chen returned to the living room alone and took out the pair of silk gloves in his pocket. This pair of silk gloves with Tianling blade can be regarded as a good combination. If he encounters an opponent who is stronger than himself, he can only rely on the methods taught by Su He.

At this time, it was still early.

Although I have experienced a few competitions, it is still early for lunch. However, thinking of Xu Ming and Su Mei's reminders, Ling Chen, who originally wanted to go out for a walk, had to give up this idea and stay in the room honestly.

At noon, when it was time to eat, a Tianji Pavilion disciple delivered the meal to the room as usual.

Maybe it's because of the competition, today's food is much better than the previous two days. Looking at the sumptuous lunch, Ling Chen only felt that his appetite increased greatly, anyway, there was only one person in the room, he didn't need to be polite, filled a bowl of rice, and then picked up a prawn, and prepared to send it to the innermost.

However, at this time, Song Ge's voice suddenly came from outside the door.

"Brother Song. Opening the door and looking at Song Ge standing at the door, Ling Chen welcomed him in with a smile and asked, "Brother Song, have you eaten?"

"Not yet, when I came to look for you this morning, I didn't see you, so I thought I'd come over at noon. ”

"I had something to do in the morning, so I left the meeting. Come, it just so happens that the meals are ready-made, let's eat some together. ”

Song Ge was not polite, and after the two of them sat down, they ate a mouthful of food and wine. It didn't take long for the two bottles of wine to bottom. Looking at the wine bottle in his hand, Song Ge's expression looked a little depressed.

Seeing his appearance, Ling Chen knew what he was thinking without asking. These two bottles of wine were brought by Zhou Jun last time, and they were never finished, so they were stored in his room, ready to drink them again next time. Now, the wine is still there, but the person is no longer there, and I don't know where Zhou Qi took Zhou Jun.

Thinking of this, Ling Chen secretly sighed softly.

After drinking and eating, Song Ge burped, got up and said, "Brother Ling, I have something to do later, so I won't accompany you, and I'll come back to you in the evening." ”

"Okay, go slowly, I won't send it. ”

Song Ge waved his hand, and then walked towards the door. However, before he could reach the door, he saw that his legs suddenly went limp, his body leaned forward suddenly, and he fell to the ground with a 'bang'.

"Brother Song?"

Ling Chen was taken aback, and quickly ran to Song Ge's side, helped him up from the ground, and called his name in his mouth. However, Song Ge seemed to have fallen into a coma, his eyes were closed, and he didn't react at all.
