After sorting out the things, Lin Xin buried Shu Luoyi's things in other places alone, leaving only the wooden mule's human face fruit and evil magic cheats, and the rest of the sundries were put away by himself.

Out of the Stone Pillar Forest, he suddenly saw a fire burning in the pine forest in the distance, almost half of the pine trees on the hillside were ignited, the fire rose to the sky, and a large amount of black smoke came out of the red flames, forming a vague black cloud in the sky outside the entire Peacock City.

Lin Xin was not in a hurry, and compared it with the sword on his arm.

"Bitter meat is a must" However, as a modern person, he still has some psychological obstacles when he just cuts a cut on his arm with a sword.

But the thought that the other two were dead made sense that he was unscathed.

He was so hard in the heart that he pressed the blade of his sword against his arm and pulled it down.

Hiss.

Suddenly, a cut appeared on his arm, and red blood flowed out of the wound.

He quickly took out a Ganlin talisman, pressed it directly, and then pressed the wound to prevent it from bleeding profusely.

The internal force is mobilized and converges towards the wound and closes the wound.

Holding down the wound, Lin Xin dropped his sword and rushed directly down the mountain.

Peacock Villas

Under the eaves, on a row of mahogany benches facing the small lake, four or five people from the Pine Forest Sword Sect were sitting quietly drinking tea and fishing.

The benches are backed against the wall and there is nothing blocking the lake, so you can fish or even get into the water.

On the wall hangs a large calligraphy in black on a white background, with only one word on it: sword.

Kong Ling, the master of the Peacock Sect, was more than half a hundred, dressed in a red robe, and was a very dignified middle-aged man, sitting in the first place on the right, laughing with him, looking at the person on the left.

"This time, Senior Brother Dantang Zhong is here, if I don't play in my Peacock City for a few days, then others will say that I don't know how to be polite. ”

Senior Brother Zhong's face was calm, his temples were slightly white, his long eyebrows were like sharp swords, he was dressed in a plain white coat with big sleeves fluttering, and he was holding a fishing rod in his hand to fish in the lake.

He also smiled when he heard this.

"Brother Kong is polite, if it weren't for the business trip this time, I guess I would have been on my way to Jinyuzong. After this matter is dealt with, I will continue my mission immediately, and I dare not delay. ”

"It's fine. Kong Ling nodded, and at this time, someone ran in at the side entrance, and he immediately smiled, "It seems that the intelligence information about the plague has been sent." ”

Unexpectedly, the subordinate ran to his side and whispered for a moment, his face suddenly changed slightly, and his eyes immediately fell on Senior Brother Zhong.

"Senior brother, my second son, Renhui, brought someone over, it will definitely help you on this mission, I don't know"

"Oh, bring it up and meet it. "Senior Brother Zhong is a genuine Qi Practitioner Master, such an attitude is a bit casual, but for Kong Ling, who is only a congenital master, it is also normal.

Kong Ling nodded and waved his hand to let the subordinates go down.

Soon, Kong Yuhui also brought a young man in white who looked like a scholar into here. The two respectfully walked to Kong Ling's right side and stood still.

Senior Brother Zhong looked carefully at the person next to Kong Yuhui, Kong Yuhui had seen the data portrait and could still recognize it, but he didn't know the young man who led the young man who looked like a scholar in white.

This scholar has a delicate face, short hair, with a hint of coldness and calmness, at first glance, he belongs to the type of mood and anger, and his cultivation is reluctant, and the realm of the third layer of the inner family's small return to the Yuan Jue is still a little unstable, and he seems to have suffered serious internal injuries.

The most conspicuous thing is his eyes, with deep black pupils, he dares to look at the qi practitioner head-on, giving people a kind of unruly temperament.

"Who is he?" asked Senior Brother Zhong.

"Back to Shibo, this is Lin Xin, a friend of my nephew, and he is also a disciple of Songlin. This time about the plague case, maybe he can give you some key clues. Kong Yuhui lowered his head and replied in fear.

"Lin Xin?" Senior Brother Zhong was slightly stunned.

Lin Xin also took a step forward generously.

"But Dantang's Uncle Zhong, I don't know if you know Uncle Ji Lu?"

Senior Brother Zhong's eyes blinked, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"Ji Lu, who is he, how do you know him?" Ji Lu is a well-known good old man in Dantang, who doesn't know him, but there are few who have anything to do with him. As soon as he heard the name, he also felt a hint of curiosity about this young man who looked to be in his early twenties.

"The nephew was introduced to the sect by Uncle Ji Lu a few days ago, and it has been almost half a year. Lin Xin replied carefully. He then told the other party how he got started, and sorted out the relationship with Ji Lu.

"In this way, you should indeed call me uncle, and I have a good relationship with that kid Ji Lu. No, it shouldn't be said that, it should be said that Ji Lu's popularity is quite good in the entire Dantang. Recently, I have been in love with You Xuan's junior sister in the Sword Hall, and it is estimated that it will not be long before I become a Taoist couple. As soon as Ji Lu was mentioned, Senior Brother Zhong's expression also softened.

"What kind of cultivation did you do when you started?" he looked Lin Xin up and down, and asked again.

"It's a small return to the Yuan Jue layer" Lin Xin didn't dare to hide it, and replied honestly, "But after that, I had an adventure, I ate some elixir, and I barely reached this realm." ”

Senior Brother Zhong was shocked when he heard that he had only entered the first level of cultivation, and he wondered how the sect could let such a talented disciple be obscure, and he was relieved when he heard it. The elixir is promoted, and the qualification is different, the elixir has limitations, there will be sequelae, and the qualifications are different.

"My name is Zhong Xuan, since you know Ji Lu, you can be regarded as half of my Dantang, this matter is easy to handle. Tell me, take the initiative to find me, what is it for?" Zhong Xuan said with a pleasant face.

Lin Xin didn't expect Uncle Ji Lu's face to be so easy to use, and he was glad in his heart, originally he had prepared other back-up hands to prevent the other party from tearing his face, but now it seems that he is not needed for the time being.

"Uncle Hui, I learned something about the plague in the city."

As he spoke, he carefully explained the content of his experience these days to Zhong Xuan after a little trimming. Of course, he has modified many places, and he will definitely not mention the hole card of his rune sword, the conflict with Shu Luoyi, and the thousand-level human face fruit he obtained.

Originally, Zhong Xuan just looked casual, and the other two junior brothers and sisters who came with him also listened disapprehantly.

The inside story that Lin Xin said at the beginning, in fact, they already knew it, but as the situation deepened, especially when they heard that Lin Xin had finally obtained the Human Face Fruit and the Evil Magic Secret Book, all of them, including Kong Ling and Kong Yuhui, suddenly turned solemn.

"You bring things in. Jonghyun sat up straight and spoke in a solemn tone.

Lin Xin came to hug his thighs this time, he ruined the good things of a group of people in the sect, and if he didn't hug his thighs quickly, it would definitely be a dead end.

Hearing this, he hurriedly took out the prepared cloth bag of human face fruit and evil magic cheats and handed it over.

Jonghyun took it and opened it to see that his face was calm, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

After he looked through it, he handed it over to the other two people, as well as Kong Ling to check. It wasn't until everyone had seen it that he put the cloth bag back in his hand.

"Lin Xin, you can hand over such treasures to the sect, which shows that you do have a righteous heart, but as an accidental victim of this mission, except for you, the other two people in your team are dead, so this matter still requires you to cooperate with the investigation. You don't have any opinions, do you?"

Lin Xin nodded yes.

"The master and nephew will fully cooperate and know everything. ”

Jonghyun smiled slightly, very satisfied with the attitude he showed.

"Then this matter is over for you, you can follow me for a few days, and when the matter is investigated, you can go back to the sect. No problem, right?"

Lin Xin's heart was relieved, he didn't expect it to be so easy to pass, it seems that this time he really owes Uncle Ji Lu a favor.

"There's a problem!"

He was about to reply, but was interrupted by a sudden voice.

The voice came from behind, Lin Xin hurriedly looked back, and saw Zhao Hongtian walking into the door quickly following a middle-aged white-robed Taoist.

It was the middle-aged Taoist who spoke just now. The man was staring fiercely at himself.

"The human face fruit case involves a wide range of things, and these evil treasures have always been five together, there are four hundred-level human face fruits here, then there must be a thousand-level main fruit, only four, so where are the remaining main fruits?!"

As soon as this person entered the door, his voice exploded like a firecracker.

"At a young age, you can learn to hide the treasures of the sect privately, and you will not be allowed to betray the sect when you are older?!

The more the Taoist spoke, the more angry he became, and finally three translucent sword bodies suddenly appeared behind him, grabbed them with his backhand, and actually slashed towards Lin Xin with a sword.

Laugh at!

The blade flashed, and a section of snow-white sword qi extended from the end of the blade, which was still a few meters away from Lin Xin, and there was a faint sense of extreme threat.

Lin Xin's heart was cold, he didn't expect the other party to say that he would do it, and he didn't care that so many people were present. Hurriedly retreated.

He now has no weapons, and all the rune swords have been consumed, except for the Wuyan Sword Technique, he is just a very ordinary inner disciple, and he is still in the critical period when his internal qi is unstable and cannot stimulate a large amount of internal strength. Even a normal second-tier disciple may not be able to beat it. Not to mention that the other party is a master of qi training at a glance.

Now it's up to Shi Bo Zhong Xuan to stop it?

"Huang Songzi!!" When the sword qi was about to touch his forehead, a roar suddenly exploded from behind Lin Xin.

He saw a ball of golden light explode in front of him, and his whole body was warm as if he was in a furnace, and the unwilling roar of a middle-aged Taoist sounded in his ears.

"Jong Hyun!!You dare to stop me?!"

"Why don't you dare!" Jong Xuan's voice was like a bell.

Boom!!

This was followed by a violent crash, as if two huge pieces of wood were colliding together. There was a dull sound.

A figure smashed through the wooden wall of the house and flew upside down.

The golden light faded.

Lin Xin regained his eyesight, and when he saw the scene in front of him, he also gasped in his heart.

I saw that the wooden wall of the house, which was as thick as the length of a palm, was smashed by force at this time, and a large hole in the shape of a human figure appeared, and on the ground around it, tables, chairs, stools, etc., were not damaged at all, and even the position where it was placed was still in place.

Except for a large hole in the wall next to the doorway, there was not the slightest trace of it.

Huang Songzi is gone, and it is clear that he is the one who was sent out.

Jonghyun was still sitting in place, still holding the fishing rod in his hand, as if he had never moved his hand.

Kong Ling was originally about to stand up and persuade peace, but he didn't expect the situation to change so quickly, and Huang Songzi was beaten out in the blink of an eye. A hint of embarrassment and surprise suddenly appeared on his face.

Kong Yuhui swallowed his saliva and looked at Lin Xin, this power was no longer something that ordinary qi cultivation could achieve

The meaning of his eyes Lin Xin also understood, he had also seen it when he was in the Lin family's hometown of Red Pine City during the Qi refining period, whether it was Zhao Si'er or Su Wan, they did not have such exaggerated control. Although they are powerful, most of them are reflected in destruction, and they are far from being so precisely controlled.
