"That being the case, then let's bother for a while. Lin Xin thought about it, he really didn't know anything about Zhongfu, and the best way was to find a place to settle down first, and slowly inquire about the situation. And he also needed a period of calm time to carefully study the effect of the herring lantern on his body.

Sure enough, as soon as they heard Lin Xin's decision, Ma Yuan's father and daughter were a little relieved.

"In that case, let's go to this town to deliver the goods, and then we'll go straight to my relatives and stay there. Ma Yuan hurriedly said, "My Ma family is in Shelin City near here, and it is also a famous family, and when I make arrangements, the master can rest here for a while, and after understanding the surrounding environment, it is not too late to make plans." ”

Lin Xin nodded. "It's okay, after such a long journey, it's time to freshen up. ”

The group first went to a place that looked like a trading house, Ma Yuan took out a small bag and handed over the goods, and then went directly to the carriage and horse shop to hire a few carriages, buy good food and drink, and go directly to the nearby Shelin City.

The largest gathering place on the edge of Flower Drum Town is Shelin City, which is a centralized trading point for the specialties of surrounding towns like Flower Drum Town, and a large grocery market attracts many other merchants from far away to receive their goods.

It was only a day's journey, and Ma Yuan and the others took Lin Xin to the courtyard of a deep house of Zhumen stone lions in the city.

A group of centaurs entered through the side door, and a maid in a black and gold-painted dress greeted them.

"It turned out to be Uncle Ma, last time Miss Cousin was still talking about you, but I didn't expect to meet again not long after. The maid was born smart and cute, petite in stature, and led Ma Yuan and his party into the side door.

Ma Yuan also laughed and handed over a little something.

"It's just a little bit of a gadget, not a tribute. ”

"I see you're in some trouble this time, is it because of the wind?" asked the maid in a low voice.

"Bad luck. Alas, it's a long story. Ma Yuan sighed, Ma Qiuqiu also remembered the previous situation, and wanted to cry.

"I'll take you to Miss Table first. ”

The maid whispered as she motioned for her subordinates to lead the rest of the team to a nearby guest house to stay.

Lin Xin and the other two team leaders, as distinguished guests, were singled out by Ma Yuan and arranged to live in the guest house in the mansion.

Everything was arranged. Lin Xin also settled in this horse mansion with peace of mind.

Days passed in a flash.

"The best pear flower tofu, minced green onion and meat sauce by yourself!"

On the edge of Mafu is a snack street.

People came and went on the street, Lin Xin was sitting in the tofu shop, drinking a bowl of soy milk, listening to Xiao Er's shouting, and looking at the passers-by on the street.

The hot soy milk tastes nothing, and I don't know how much water it rinses. It's just a little hot, and the stomach is warm when you drink it, and it's very comfortable.

Lin Xin squinted. Dressed in a dark green robe with a golden plum embroidered on his shoulder, this is a set of clothes he bought at random on the side.

At this time he was sitting in the shop, mingling with the rest of the people who had come to breakfast, and he was not at all in the spot, and there was nothing unusual about him.

In the past few days, he has walked around the neighborhood, and the accent of the words spoken in Zhongfu is similar to that of Nanfu. It's just that the tone is a little different, and obviously there is a circulating language between the two sides.

Ma Fu doesn't see anyone coming in or out on weekdays. Most of them are deep and simple.

It has been three days since Ma Qiuqiu's father and daughter left Mayuan, and yesterday they sent someone to report that they had heard that he could cut blood beasts with their hands, so Miss Biao was interested and wanted to summon him.

The person who reported the news on the other side was very clear. It's a summons, not an appointment.

Thinking of this, Lin Xin also shook his head and smiled unconsciously.

"A master who can deal with ordinary blood beasts is at least a qi practitioner, a second-grade qi practitioner. It is somewhat unexpected to encounter such treatment here. Not to mention that the blood beast I solved at the beginning was a huge type that could only be solved by the three grades. ”

He didn't think much about why the other party had such an attitude, but looked intently at the hot tofu that had just been served.

"Guest, you use it slowly. Xiao Er pulled the towel and wiped it on the table, and hurriedly went to greet the other guests.

Lin Xin pulled the chopsticks, gently picked up the white flower tofu and took a bite, and suddenly felt tender and delicious, full of bean fragrance. Sprinkle with chives and some chopped peanuts.

Call!

Suddenly, two people rose into the air on the street, striking each other with blades, making a crisp sound dozens of times, and they were in a ball in mid-air.

"Huashi Dragon City, since I bumped into it, yesterday's enmity is over today. ”

The voice of one of the men spread, and his voice was also smooth and clear in the fierce fight, obviously with a lot of spare strength.

"Master Song, I can't blame me for that incident, it's your own female disciple who is beautiful, don't I just hook up a few times and play casually, so I can use it so much?"

The other said with a hippie smile, but his breath was obviously a little fluctuating, far less stable than the former.

"Since it's Huashi Dragon City! It's better to choose a day than today! The hatred of killing his wife is not shared!"

Immediately, another person roared into the sky and joined the two of them.

The three of them went back and forth on the street, sometimes knocking over a vendor's cart, and sometimes rushing into the second floor of the restaurant and making a mess.

Lin Xin's stall was fortunately in the corner of the edge, it was a dead end, and he couldn't get out when he came in, and a few people didn't come here.

The three of them are vicious and vicious, and their internal qi is surging, and they are all masters of the house.

This also made Lin Xin, who had just arrived in Zhongfu, slightly surprised, there were three people on the street at random, and they were the masters of the inner family.

Look at the few people eating safely in the stall, they all look commonplace. Unhurried, staring over there as if watching a play.

"It's outsiders again, these guys are going to be unlucky, and they dare to do it under the nose of the government. ”

"The governor passed by just the day before yesterday, and there was a disturbance and fight here, hehe, there is a good show to watch now. ”

Some of the people in the shop got up and left, but most of them sat in their places safely, not at all worried about being affected.

Lin Xin ate the tofu in a few bites, drank the soup in the dry bowl, got up and walked towards another street.

In the past few days in Mafu, he found a small bookstore nearby, in which there are many books such as county chronicles and government chronicles, which he can go and look through. Learn about the general environment of Zhongfu.

Crossing an intersection selling imitation calligraphy, paintings and knick-knacks, there is a small temple on the side of the road, and looking through the white stone plaque, you can see a long white stone staircase extending inward, and the faint sound of chanting is piercing through.

I don't know why, Lin Xin suddenly remembered the herring lantern. Standing in front of the temple at this time, he faintly felt a little relieved and peaceful.

"The herring lantern may really be related to Buddhism"

He faintly began to feel the herring lamp start to heat up again.

Ever since he knew that this thing could fight the decay of his body, he put it in his heart to protect it.

Moreover, in the past few days, research has found that as long as he recites Buddhist scriptures, he can strengthen the degree of resistance to decay of the herring lantern.

Standing in front of the temple at this time, it is the same feeling.

After standing still for a moment, Lin Xin simply turned around and walked into the temple.

Since you feel something, you might as well go and see it right away.

Follow the plaque and walk in. On the stone steps, another novice was sweeping the steps with a broom.

"Donor, do you want to stay or burn incense?"

"Burn incense. Lin Xin took out a tael of silver and gave it to the little novice.

"Please go straight to burn incense, and you can see the incense burner when you enter the main hall.

At this time, there was an endless stream of pilgrims, and there were many people up and down the steps.

Lin Xin walked forward alone, going up the steps all the way. Soon they came to a large hall, although the temple was small. But the only one of these halls is really built in a simple and simple way.

Inside is enshrined an angry-eyed King Kong, each with four arms holding a golden ring, teeth and claws, but with a solemn bearing.

The people who came to worship and burn incense came in and out silently and were very well-behaved.

Lin Xin bought a bouquet of incense sticks from the monk at the door and walked in. lit, stood beside an old lady, and bowed to the Buddha statue three times.

At this time, he was closer to the chanting sound at the back of the temple, and he felt more and more that the herring lamp was hot, almost like a soldering iron. Clung to his skin, even his twenty-point physique felt a little tingling.

"It seems to have something to do with Buddhism. And the correlation is not small. And it may have something to do with the sound of chanting. ”

Lin Xin had an understanding.

"But the donor wants to go inside and chant the scriptures?" a small monk leaned over and asked.

"Little master, I want to ask, are there Buddhist scriptures for sale here?" Lin Xin asked casually.

"Yes, of course. Does the donor want the Lotus Sutra, the Empty Karma Sutra, or the Daimyo Sutra?" the little monk suddenly felt that business was coming, and his eyes lit up and asked.

"Bring me a copy of the same. ”

Lin Xin didn't pick either.

A moment later, he left the temple with a few scriptures. I went to the bookstore and bought a few books about the Fuzhi. before returning to Mafu.

Just entered the yard.

"Sir, Miss Cousin has asked you to come and invite you over. The maid who took care of him whispered.

Lin Xin was slightly stunned. Then he said lightly.

"Go and tell the man, and say that I will not stay for any longer, and that I will soon be gone, and that I will not care. ”

The maid was stunned, and it seemed that she had never seen anyone disobey the meaning of the lady in the house.

Lin Xin had already carried the book into the courtyard bedroom, closed the door and threw out a sentence.

"I'm in retreat, don't bother me. ”

If it weren't for the face of Ma Yuan's father and daughter, he could have found an inn to live in by himself, and then slowly got to know this place. But looking at it now, it seems that this young lady has a little interest in him, and she doesn't know what Ma Yuan's father and daughter said in front of her.

Inside the main courtyard of the Ma Mansion.

"Then Ma Yuan brought someone to live again. The old man is still in the west and has not come back, this always allows these poor distant relatives to take advantage, so that the other rooms will not gossip when they see it?"

In the courtyard, two old mothers were talking with a delicate and noble woman.

"Yes, these distant relatives who can't fight together with eight poles, even a little bit of a small relationship can be cheeky to come over and set it up, once or twice is fine, but the old lady will be annoyed if there are more times. ”

The woman smiled faintly.

"My daughter will soon come back from the Kunlin Sword Sect, and this time she will become an official disciple, which is just a big event, and Xuan'er also needs a little manpower around her, and she has always been the same as before, and she also needs a little master. ”

"It just so happens that among the people who came to flee with Ma Yuan and them this time, this red flower strength can kill what kind of blood beast that Nalaoshzi has, it should be good, and it is just right to be the main thing for Xuan'er. ”

"Madame is thoughtful, but I'm afraid that the person doesn't know how to lift, I don't know what a great opportunity this is, if I refuse, I will lose face," an old mother worried.

"Refusal? It's nothing more than profit, if my Ma Fu can give him enough benefits, he will naturally not run. If the benefits are insufficient, you can't keep them. Xuan'er now has a great future, and there are too many people who are stammering, if he knows the situation, he will definitely not refuse. After all, that person is a refugee from Nanfu, with no identity and no guide, if you want to walk here, it is difficult to walk an inch. If you want to be such a master who has no identity and evades and flees, it is best to recruit. ”

The woman said softly. "The only thing I need to pay attention to as a mother is to stabilize the rear for her, so as not to have any worries about the Ma family. (To be continued.) )
