Chapter Seventy-Four: Finding Fault

The Hundred Soldiers City is divided into four urban districts, southeast, northwest and northwest, and the inner city where Sun Qi, the head of the Bing family, and the four elders live, is located in the center of the four urban districts.

The first thing Mo Lin saw was the towering watchtower in the inner city, and there were eight arrow towers under the watchtower, and the entire inner city looked like an impregnable fortress.

When he heard Ling Huzi say that the city wall of the inner city was made of one-meter-square strips of bluestone, glutinous rice juice, lime, and tung oil, Mo Lin was even more speechless.

Entering the inner city, it is divided into five districts, the central one is the residence of Sun Qi, the head of the Bing family, and the other four areas surrounding him are the residences of the four hereditary elders of the Bing family.

"The head of the house heard about the distress on the road and said he wanted to see you." Ling Huzi walked in front and introduced the situation to Mo Lin.

"Why am you alone?" Mo Lin was a little puzzled.

"I don't know, maybe you're the only one who invited the soldiers." Linghu Zidao, there was also a trace of doubt in her purple eyes, but she didn't want to show it in front of Mo Lin.

Sun Qi's residence was a vast mansion, built magnificently, with a spear painted on the main entrance, and Mo Lin knew that it must be the dragon blood spear, one of the five-mangled soldiers of the soldier family that had been passed down from generation to generation.

There were two guards in front of the door, and when they saw Ling Huzi, they both bowed deeply.

"Miss Linghu, the head of the family and the four elders are deliberating, please go to the side hall and wait for you and the guests of the Mo family." A guarded road.

Ling Huzi nodded, beckoned Mo Lin to follow her, and after the two entered the door, they turned left and came all the way to a side hall.

A servant quickly brought fragrant tea, Mo Lin sat on a mahogany chair, sipped fragrant tea, looked at the spacious and tidy hall, carved beams and painted pillars, and said that the side hall was so luxurious, and I didn't know what the main hall would look like.

While waiting, Ling Huzi has been telling Mo Lin the story of the soldier, which is not boring. From Ling Hu Zi's mouth, Mo Lin learned that the five-manged divine soldiers of Sun Wu, the founder of the military family, were now kept by the head of the family, Sun Qi, and the four elders.

The successive generations of family heads surnamed Sun after Sun Wu kept the Dragon Blood Divine Spear, the Four Great Elders, the Fox Family was in charge of the Green Snake Whip, the Xiao family was in charge of the White Crane Divine Sword, the Li family was in charge of the Jade Phosphorus Knife, and the Lu family was in charge of the Giant Axe.

Mo Lin listened to Linghu Zi's introduction, thought of her green snake whip, and asked, "So, you are a member of the Linghu family?" ”

Ling Hu Zi smiled slightly: "Ling Hu Ye, the elder of this generation of the Ling Hu family, is my father. ”

"I see." Only then did Mo Lin know that Ling Huzi turned out to be the daughter of the elder of the soldier's family, and when he thought of the scene in the restaurant yesterday, he knew why Xiao Guiyan was so tolerant of Ling Huzi.

Mo Lin was very curious about the weapon-making process of the soldiers, and also knew that Ling Huzi's green snake whip was imitated from the green snake whip, so he was busy asking her for advice.

Ling Huzi knew everything, and the two of them discussed the experience of forging, and they were quite fruitful.

While the conversation was starting, the servant shouted outside the hall, "Welcome to the master of the house." ”

Ling Hu Zi hurriedly got up and glanced at Mo Lin, Mo Lin also hurriedly stood up, learning from Ling Hu Zi's appearance, and waited respectfully.

A moment later, a middle-aged man with a long beard strode into the hall, followed by four men with lofty instruments, Mo Lin peeked over, guessing that these people must be the four elders.

"Linghu Zi greets the head of the family." Linghu Zidao.

Mo Lin was also busy saying: "The younger Mo family Mo Lin, see the head of the family." ”

The middle-aged man with a long beard was Sun Qi, the head of the Bing family's generation, he bowed slightly, his eyes swept over Mo Lin, and then he walked to the seat at the head of the hall and sat down.

Mo Lin saw the four elders again, and after everyone sat down, he saw Ling Huzi sit down, and then he also sat down.

The Mo family is highly disciplined, but there is no strict hierarchy between the giant and the ordinary ink man, and Mo Lin even pulled Mo Ren's beard when he was a child. Sitting in the hall at this moment, feeling the strict distinction between superiors and subordinates in the soldiers, Mo Lin couldn't help but feel a little uncomfortable.

The servant brought fragrant tea, Sun Qi took a sip of the teacup, and said to Mo Lin: "Your name is Mo Lin?" ”

"Yes." Mo Lin turned slightly sideways and said to Sun Qi.

Sun Qi sighed "hmm" and didn't speak again, Mo Lin felt a little strange. Because since Sun Qi and the four elders came in, their eyes had been swirling on Mo Lin's body, as if they were appreciating a very rare thing. Such a gaze made Mo Lin feel uncomfortable, and he simply recited Vajra silently in his heart, calming the uneasiness in his heart.

"I heard Ah Zi say that you are the first craftsman of the Mo family this year?" Sun Qi pondered for a long time, and finally spoke again.

"There are many talented people among the Mo craftsmen, and I am just lucky." Mo Lin said humbly.

"Why didn't you become an inker?" Sun Qi suddenly asked.

Mo Lin was stunned for a moment, and hesitated for a moment before saying: "I have not been in good health since I was a child, weaker than ordinary people, and I didn't pass the ink exam." ”

"Don't you know anything about martial arts?" Sun Qi's eyes were blazing, and he seemed to be very interested in this question.

Mo Lin was confused, he didn't know why Sun Qi asked these questions, thinking of Zhu Pingman's advice, he could only lie: "I don't understand." ”

Ling Huzi's eyes flashed, but he didn't speak.

Sun Qi nodded slightly, exchanged glances with the four elders, and then got up and said, "Ah Zi, let's accompany Mo Lin around the city in the past few days, and take your time to improve the flying crossbow." ”

Linghu Zi hurriedly got up to receive the order, and Mo Lin also got up to thank him, and watched Sun Qi and the four elders leave.

When they left, Mo Lin let out a sigh of relief, just a few simple questions and answers, but he felt that Sun Qi had an aggressive momentum on his body, as if he was about to swallow him at any time.

△△△

In the next few days, Ling Huzi really just took Mo Lin and the three of them around the city, and never mentioned the design of the flying crossbow modification.

Although Yang Li and Luo Qianqian were a little anxious, they were expected to take two months, and they were still in a hurry, so it was difficult to say anything.

Although he was playing during the day, Mo Lin would never waste his cultivation time at night.

Mo Lin's cultivation progressed very quickly, especially the effect of Vajra recitation was very obvious, and after each recitation, he could feel that the true qi of his body was becoming more and more abundant. He is also becoming more and more familiar with the technique of mongoose fighting, and he has memorized every bright point about meerkat fighting, and he can immediately make a move when his mind moves.

It has been seven days since he came to the Hundred Soldiers City in a blink of an eye, and Mo Lin should start working after calculating, and wanted to ask Ling Huzi, but she sent a family member to tell Mo Lin that there was something wrong today, and asked him to go to the city by himself.

Mo Lin originally wanted to continue his cultivation in the inn, but Luo Qianqian asked him to accompany him to buy a hairpin, and the two didn't tell Yang Li, so they slipped out of the inn and wandered around the streets of Hundred Soldiers City.

After following Ling Huzi for a few days, the two of them were also slightly familiar with the streets of Baibing City, and went straight to the Xicheng Jewelry Street that sells jewelry, and picked up a morning before they could buy the style that Luo Qianqian liked.

Luo Qianqian, who was wearing a new hairpin, was obviously in a good mood, and pulled Mo Lin to go to Weiju for dinner. Mo Lin also missed the braised hooves there, so he naturally agreed.

When they came to the door of the taste house, it was lunch time, and the guy warmly greeted them into the door, and the first and second floors were already full of guests, so he took them directly to the third floor.

As soon as he went up to the third floor, Mo Lin was stunned. The last time I had dinner here, I ran into Xiao Guiyan and Nan Hengfei and a few other white-clothed parties making trouble, but this time I ran into them again.

Luo Qianqian was also a little surprised, pulled Mo Lin's shirt and said, "Are we going to eat here?" ”

"What are you afraid of, will it eat us?" Mo Lin took Luo Qianqian's hand and walked straight upstairs, the two sat down at the small table by the window, and ordered a few good dishes in their memory.

As soon as the two of them went upstairs, they fell into Nan Hengfei's eyes, and he stared at Mo Lin intently, with a resentful look in his eyes.

"Old Five, what are you looking at?" Among the five brothers of the White Clothes Party, Yi Lu Wuchen is the oldest, he is the only son of Lu Ping, the elder of the Lu family, and he is a figure who calls for wind and rain among the young children of the soldiers.

"That guy is what I call Mo Lin." Nan Hengfei said indignantly, "Ah Zi takes special care of him, I think he must like him." ”

"Is that him?" Xiao Guiyan's face sank, he had just drunk a lot of wine, and his face was flushed.

"Who is that beautiful girl next to him, who seems to be very close to him?" Li Feihu, who was the third in line, asked.

"It's a girl from his childhood sweetheart in the Mo family, named Luo Qianqian." South Flying Road.

"Are you saying that he has a childhood sweetheart, and he is still having an affair with Ah Zi?" The fourth Luo Tian was a short temper, and after listening to Nan Hengfei's words, he slapped it on the table. The dishes on the table jumped up, and the loud noise also attracted the attention of the whole building.

When Mo Lin heard the voice, he looked over strangely, and saw that the five people at the table were all looking at him angrily.

"Those people are really weird, why do they have to make trouble every time." Mo Lin didn't care, and continued to chat with Luo Qianqian.

"Old Five, he doesn't look like he's capable, how could Ah Zi like him." Li Feihu was quite cautious, looked at Mo Lin a few times, and asked Nanheng Feidao.

"He is the first place in the Mo family's craftsman test this year......" Nan Hengfei said something related to Mo Lin, and finally made up a story about Mo Lin's attack in the swamp, which made Hu Zi feel painful when he saw it.

"I heard that when Ah Zi found him, he was naked. Ah Zi also wiped his body. Finally, Nanhengfei and mysterious Dao.

Xiao Guiyan, who had always been pale, couldn't hold back his emotions anymore when he heard this last sentence, stood up, grabbed the two wine jugs on the table and went straight to Mo Lin.

Coming to Mo Lin's table, Xiao Guiyan put a pot of wine on the table, looked at Mo Lin provocatively and said, "My name is Xiao Guiyan, I heard that you are a good friend of Ah Zi, and I specially came to give you a pot of wine." ”

Mo Lin looked at him coldly, and saw Nan Hengfei and the others looking over with a good look on the show, knowing that this Xiao Guiyan must have come to find fault.
