When Lin Da entered the door with Shen Bing, he had already been noticed by everyone, but everyone paid attention to the girl, and no one cared about him. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 info When the girl introduced Lin Da to everyone, the old man stepped forward with a grateful face, clasped his hands into fists, and said to Lin Da very sincerely: "Thank you Lin Daguan for saving my granddaughter's life!

Lin Da hurriedly returned the salute and said in an unfamiliar local language: "The old man doesn't need to be polite, Miss Shen's safe return is completely due to her own blessing and fate, I just raised my hands." ”

Seeing that Linda was so modest, there was no arrogance, and his words and deeds were quite decent, and their good feelings for him immediately increased. The old man said sincerely: "This catastrophe suffered by my family Bing'er is extraordinary, if it weren't for you, I'm afraid I would have died overseas! Your kindness, our Shen family will never dare to forget! If you need help in Xiaoyu County in the future, our Shen family will definitely give full support!"

Linda smiled at the old man's words, nodded slightly, and did not refuse anything. Next, the old man respectfully invited Lin Da to the first seat, and then presented fragrant tea desserts, everyone sat down in the main and secondary places, and after a few words of greeting each other, they introduced each other first.

It turned out that this old man's name was Shen Wen, the county magistrate of Xiaoyu County, and the patriarch of the Shen family, the largest family in Xiaoyu County, and he could be regarded as one of the biggest people in the county. The other people present were the elders of the county elders' meeting, among which the white-robed scholar was named Lai Ming, the middle-aged woman was named Gu Qing, the young man was named Teng Li, and the black-robed man was named Yan Qing. There is also a woman who has been holding Shen Bing is Shen Bing's aunt, who is also a big figure in the Shen family's stewardship.

After introducing everyone, the old man respectfully inquired about Linda's origin and how he saved the girl. Lynda had already thought of a statement, claiming to be from some isolated island in the depths of the ocean, and when she was out on a trip to pass by the Companion Shark Sea, she met the girl on that uninhabited island and rescued her on the boat. He talked in detail about how he met the girl and how he came to Xiaoyu County, and the girl added a few words from time to time, and everyone was amazed.

The old man listened carefully, looked at Lin Da with reverence, and said, "It turns out that Brother Lin is from the ocean, no wonder the clothes are different from ours." ”

The clothes on Lynda's body were still earthly and out of place compared to the others, and of course they attracted the old man's attention first. However, the others didn't care much about this, and inquired curiously about the situation in Lynda's country. Lin Da had already expected it, and roughly said what he had said to Shen Bing these days, and he barely coped with everyone's questions.

After chatting for a while, the old man asked again: "Since Brother Lin has come to our place, I don't know what plans you have in the future?" After speaking, he looked at Lin Da with a smile in his eyes, looking very casual.

Seeing the old man's gaze, Lin Da thought about it for a moment, and then said with a little hesitation: "Well... I'm in some trouble right now, my boat is so badly damaged by the storm that I have to dock at the shore and need some rest before I can get on my way. What's more, when I came out this time, I also had the idea of traveling in the Terran Continent, if you don't dislike me, I wonder if you can let me stay in your land for a while first, and then set off when I am fully prepared, I don't know if this is okay?" Lin Da was a little nervous in his heart, for fear that they would say a word.

Hearing Lin Da's request, the old man immediately nodded and smiled, "It turns out that Brother Lin has no other place to go for the time being. Although our Xiaoyu County is a little smaller, it is still quite rich and well-fed, if Brother Lin does not dislike it, you can live here permanently, so that we can also have the opportunity to repay you for saving your life to Bing'er. If there are any places that need help, Brother Lin said, as the county principal, the old man will do his best to meet your requirements. ”

Hearing the old man say this, Lin Da was overjoyed, and hurriedly thanked him: "Then Lin Mou thank you, I will never cause any trouble to everyone if I live here, if you have anything to do with me, I can't give up the definition!"

"Don't dare, we're still worried that Brother Lin won't be used to the environment here. The old man said, considering that Lin Da was quite tired all the way, so he asked a servant to take Shen Bing to live in the county's mansion first.

Lin Da was naturally very happy, and after thanking everyone, he nodded to Shen Bing on the side with a slight smile, and then went out with the servant who led the way.

After everyone waited for Lin Da to go away, they did not leave, and after being silent for a while, the black-robed middle-aged man who had not spoken just now opened his mouth and asked the old man: "County magistrate, do you just let such an outsider live?

When the old man heard this, he shook his head and said, "What's wrong? Although the royal family decree stipulates that people from overseas cannot be accepted, this is only for people from the country of Jiapu, and it can be seen at a glance whether he is from the country of Jiapu or not. And didn't you hear him say that he was just traveling, and he shouldn't be staying with us for long. What's more, he is the benefactor who saved my family Bing'er, what is there to doubt about this!"

The black-robed middle-aged man hurriedly said: "The county magistrate has misunderstood, I just think that we don't know anything about this Linda, so let him live like this, I'm afraid..."

"What's there to worry about? Didn't he just tell him where he came from? Do you think he will have any intentions for us? Yan Qing, although you are the captain of the county city defense, there is no need to be so sensitive to a stranger, right?" the old man said a little impatiently.

But the white-clothed scholar on the side agreed with the black-robed middle-aged man's opinion, and he said: "County magistrate, I also think that Captain Yan's suspicion is a little reasonable. Although I have never been to the small countries of the ocean, the situation of his island is different from that of the ocean countries that I know. It was originally very suspicious that an ordinary mortal like him, who was not a cultivator, would have the ability to sail alone and sail away from here...... I think we'd better keep an eye on him. ”

The young man listened to the white-clothed scholar's analysis, and also nodded and said, "Well, what Mr. Lai said has some truth, we really don't know anything about this person. What's more, the coastal areas have not been very stable recently, and the pirates of Jiapu Country have not paid attention to our Xiaoyu County for a day or two, but I am afraid that during this time, they will take advantage of the time when our country is at war with Vietnam, and take the opportunity to do something to us. Come to think of it, didn't the pirate ship that robbed Miss just appeared near Xiaoyu County not long ago? Therefore, it is also very necessary for us to be careful with strangers. ”

"So, you suspect that he might be a pirate spy?" Gu Qing's sister-in-law on the side seemed to hear the meaning of the young man's mouth, and suddenly asked in surprise.
