Chapter 190: Siege
The port of Silent Island, which is also the only port to the outside world on the entire Isle of Annihilation, is still so calm except for a battle that broke out in the streets a few days ago. It's just that the patrol team has changed a batch, and everyone who has lived here for a long time knows what they are doing, so there is nothing to make a fuss about, but they are mourning for the unlucky guy, who let him make trouble on the island of Silence without beads.
In the remote alley, the self-made inn has regained its calm after the excitement of the previous few days, but there is still one person who often comes over in the past two days, and he is Su Peng, the patriarch of the Su family on Pengcheng Island.
"Patriarch Su, let's do these little things, why bother with you. The old man surnamed Bai said with a sad face, he was just an ordinary person, but Su Peng was a ninth-order cultivator.
"Uncle Bai, don't be so outsider, you are a person respected by Jiang Shaoxia, so I should naturally respect you. As he spoke, Su Peng began to sort out the parts of the tables and stools scattered on the ground, without the slightest hint of the domineering posture of the great patriarch.
Speaking of Lu Lin, that Uncle Bai was also smiling, and he was satisfied that he could hear such a young half-step Saint Rank powerhouse being respectfully addressed.
As the head of the clan, Su Peng really came to help the old man repair the table and stool? In fact, it was not, repairing the table and stool was just a pretense, and his real purpose was to inquire about Lu Lin's whereabouts, but unfortunately the old man didn't know at all.
Sorting out a few tables and stools was not a difficult task for Su Peng of the ninth order, it stands to reason that a patriarch with a noble status like him should never ask about these trivial matters in life, but Su Peng repaired it easily, and there was no feeling of being hand-wrenched. This behavior, coupled with his amiable appearance, really made people not doubt that he was a good patriarch.
Without getting the answer he wanted, Su Peng left after helping the old man repair the table and stool, and it was not difficult to see from his frowning brows that he was worried, as for what he was worried about, he didn't know.
Just after Su Peng left, the door on the second floor of the inn was opened, and it could be seen through the gap that it was a young man, and he walked out of the door after confirming that there was no one outside the inn.
Although the young man wore a hood and completely covered his face with a black veil, the three-foot-three-looking backpack behind him still revealed his identity, which was Lu Lin after leaving the Lightning Volcano. I didn't want to continue to disturb Uncle Bai, but this place was too suitable for hiding, and it was already close to dawn when Lu Lin came over, so he hid in without disturbing Uncle Bai.
The self-made inn is the inn opened by Uncle Bai, although it is a little cold, but Uncle Bai, who is familiar with his inn, still found clues, and even guessed that someone entered his inn, and also guessed who it was, so after getting up early in the morning, he put the prepared meal outside the door where Lu Lin hid in.
"Uncle Bai, how did you find me?" Compared to the food placed at the door, Lu Lin was obviously more curious about how Uncle Bai, who was an ordinary person, found his traces of a half-step holy step, and asked himself, Lu Lin was still quite cautious when he came in.
Hearing this, the old man who was still wiping the counter had a sincere smile on his face, "You are all strong people that we can't imagine, but you are still inevitably contaminated with dust, dust is everywhere in this world, and it just so happens that I like to keep it clean, so I woke up and found that someone had entered the inn." ”
The old man's words made Lu Lin stunned all of a sudden, a powerhouse of his level who wanted to discover hidden enemies almost always relied on breath and spiritual sense, and he was invincible, but he never thought of relying on dust that was difficult to distinguish with the naked eye to confirm people's whereabouts, and it could only be said that there was nothing strange in the world.
"Uncle Bai, remember not to tell anyone that you have seen me, otherwise you will be in danger. The funny thing is that I escaped the secret posts all over the port, but in the end I was discovered by you, uncle. Shaking his head self-deprecatingly, Lu Lin's figure disappeared into the inn.
Since the quick battle between Lu Lin and Zhu Humiliation, the port's defense has doubled, from the original one patrol to two, and people aside, even the sea lions under their crotches have made passers-by tremble.
By the time Lu Lin came out, it was already noon, when the patrol's defense was the weakest, and Lu Lin deliberately hid it, and no one found him until he entered the private custom.
Cheng Yi, the privately ordered shopkeeper on the Isle of Annihilation, can be said to have experienced his darkest half a month, working overtime almost without rest, and it took the joint efforts of the five of them to successfully produce more than 400 eighth-order cultivation clothes.
Cheng Yi, who had just opened the door today, heard a lot of news, although they were making cultivation clothes, they also collected news, especially the violent movement of the lightning volcano last night, which made Cheng Yi have a bad premonition in his heart.
Just when Cheng Yi was a little distressed, a familiar and unfamiliar voice suddenly came from behind him, "Cheng is in charge, I haven't seen you for many days, but I have lost a lot of weight." ”
Turning around suddenly, Cheng Yi saw a man wearing a hood, although it was covered by a veil, he could still find out who was coming from his appearance and physical signs.
"You're here, I thought ......" When the words came to his mouth, Cheng Yi seemed to realize something, so he didn't speak.
But Lu Lin obviously didn't think that Cheng Yi's words were targetless, so he asked, "Why do you think?"
"No, it's nothing, it's your custom-made practice gown, and it's finally finished before delivery. Cheng Yi handed over a delicate belt, and the white jade on it was not ordinary at a glance, but it was obviously immeasurable compared to the things in it.
Lu Lin didn't want to continue to ask, because he didn't have time to dwell here, and he was about to leave after taking the space belt, but as soon as he turned around, he was stunned in place, because he was surprised to find that he had fallen into the encirclement.
"Jiang Qing, listen, hurry up and arrest you, otherwise my patrol will definitely let you die without a place to be buried. ”
Lu Lin didn't need to be probed by his spiritual sense, he could know his current situation, I am afraid that there is definitely more than one patrol team waiting for him outside, but he is obviously very careful, why would he still be found by others? Could it be that someone betrayed him?
Turning his head and glancing at Cheng Yi behind him, the oppressive aura on Lu Lin's body suddenly exploded, how could Cheng Yi, a seventh-order existence, withstand the oppression of a half-step saint-order aura, and immediately looked horrified.
"No, it's not me, I never told anyone about today's delivery. Cheng Yi explained anxiously.
