"What were you all doing when the Lin Mansion was attacked just now. ”

After gathering everyone, Lin Tianxiao opened his mouth to ask these subordinates who were no longer his subordinates.

"We are strictly implementing the orders given by Young Master Lin Zhan. Gu Crocodile stepped forward and replied.

"What order?"

"An order that we are not allowed to interfere with. ”

Lin Tianxiao's eyes narrowed: "When did Zhan'er give this order?"

"When Young Master Lin Zhan was fighting fiercely with the invaders. ”

"Open your mouth, Gu Crocodile, you are so bold. Lin Tianxiao scolded: "Zhan'er fought fiercely with outsiders and was seriously injured. As the guards of Zhan'er, not only did you not protect Zhan'er well, but escaped from the battle. Now you dare to quibble in front of the old man, what crime should you be guilty of. ”

Gu Crocodile and the Great Commander of Long Wei hurriedly knelt on the ground, "Lord Wang, forgive me, we are indeed carrying out Young Master Lin Zhan's orders, and we don't dare to have the slightest quibble." ”

Lin Tianxiao was furious: "You still dare to say that Zhan'er was attacked halfway after leaving the lobby, when did he give you an order, or an order not to interfere?"

Gu Crocodile replied, "Although Young Master Lin Zhan didn't say it explicitly, he has already shown his meaning with his actions. ”

"What do you mean by that?"

"From the time Young Master Lin Zhan was attacked to being seriously injured, he had at least seven chances to call for help. But Young Master Lin Zhan didn't have it once, which means that Young Master Lin Zhan doesn't want us to interfere, or even want the prince to interfere in this matter. ”

Lin Tianxiao looked carefully at Gu Crocodile who was kneeling on the ground: "Go on." ”

"The enemy is strong, and it is not something that the Lin family in front of you can fight against at all. But the other party's purpose was only Young Master Lin Zhan, so Young Master Lin Zhan didn't want anyone to meddle in this matter, but took it on his own. In this way, no matter what the result will be, it will only be a personal grudge between Lin Zhangongzi and the other party and will not affect the entire Lin Mansion. ”

"That's why all of you don't make a move. ”

"That's just one of the reasons. Gu Crocodile said.

"What else?"

"We are the ones that Young Master Lin Zhan specially trained to deal with future crises for the Lin family, and Young Master Lin Zhan will definitely not expose us all to outsiders until we are truly perfected. The enemy is huge, even if we make a move just now, it will only be a moth to the fire, and the chance of repelling the enemy is very small, and we will all be exposed because of this, and Young Master Lin Zhan's hard work will be all in vain. This is what Lin Zhangongzi absolutely does not want to see. ”

"In Young Master Lin Zhan's heart, the Lin family is more important than his life. So he definitely didn't want us to make a move in that situation. It is precisely because of this that we have just stood still. ”

Lin Tianxiao sat on the top seat and looked at Gu Crocodile deadly: "You are not afraid of guessing Zhan'er's mind wrongly and giving Zhan'er's life in vain." ”

"We all exist in this world because of Lin Zhan's son, how can we guess Young Master Zhan's mind wrongly. Gu Crocodile said: "If we really guess wrongly, then we have no meaning to exist in this world at all." ”

Lin Tianxiao's eyes shrank, and what Gu Crocodile's words revealed Lin Tianxiao heard clearly.

Tsai carefully looked at the few people kneeling in front of him: "You all think the same way." ”

Several people knelt down at the same time, proving their attitude with their actions.

Lin Tianxiao's eyes flickered, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

After half a ring, Lin Tianxiao suddenly asked, "You are Gu Crocodile?"

"Yes. ”

"I've heard a few things about you. You did a great job of escaping thousands of enemy troops with a small squad of less than 100 men. But what awaits you after you return to the team is not a reward for merit, but a collective complaint from your superiors and the hundred-member squad, accusing you of cruelty, cruelty, disregard for human life, and cold-bloodedness. Although it was later found out that you had a last resort in doing this, in order to escape from death with everyone. But you had already provoked the wrath of the people, so your superiors decided to punish you with thirty strokes of the cane, and you were reduced to three levels in a row and became a lowest-ranking baggage soldier. ”

Gu Crocodile's face did not change at all, and he was not the slightest surprise that Lin Tianxiao knew him so well, he just kowtowed to atone for his sins.

Lin Tianxiao leaned forward slightly, looking at Gu Crocodile condescendingly: "I'll ask you now, did you really have something unspeakable at the beginning?"

Gu Crocodile's body trembled, he didn't expect Lin Tianxiao to ask such a question. After a moment of silence, he said: "Everything I do is only to complete the task better, just to be able to live well." ”

Hearing this answer, Lin Tianxiao was stunned for a moment before he smiled: "Okay, just to live well, a simple reason, but it is also the most reasonable reason." You know, people like you will never be used under me, and I would even want to kill you. Whatever your reasons are, the fact that you're doing it is too offensive. ”

Feeling that what Lin Tianxiao said was not a joke, Gu Crocodile knelt lower, but at the same time he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

Lin Tianxiao then said: "It's a pity, you are now Zhan'er's subordinate. ”

Lin Tianxiao shook his head, stood up and walked out of the door, and when he reached the door, Lin Tianxiao paused: "I want to take Zhan'er out for medical treatment, and I will return in less than three months." You continue to do as you have commanded, as you always have done. ”

After speaking, Lin Tianxiao stepped out of the house with both feet.

"Lord Wang, please rest assured, we have always believed that it is impossible for anyone in this world to kill Young Master Lin Zhan, and no one will be able to escape from Young Master Lin Zhan's control. ”

Lin Tianxiao's figure has already disappeared, and I don't know if I heard this sentence.

In less than an hour, a carriage drove out of the Lin Mansion and drove out of the imperial capital towards the north.

The territory of the Kaiyuan Continent is very broad. Even if the Celestial Star Empire and the Ice Peak Temple were in the north of the continent, it would be a month later when they arrived at the Frozen Temple by the time they set off from Celestial Star City. This is still Lin Tianxiao and Lin Kecheng taking turns with each other, and they didn't dare to delay the slightest, so they forcibly shortened the two-month journey to one month.

In addition, the two also took turns to convey true qi to Lin Zhan, and continued Lin Zhan's weak vitality. Only then did Lin Zhan have a chance to support the Frozen Temple.

And the consequence of this is that Lin Tianxiao and Lin Kecheng are tired enough, and the two look a lot haggard.

When you reach your destination, you'll see a giant city of ice and snow. This city is no smaller than Celestial Star City, and the whole city looks like it is really made of ice and snow, and it looks like it is covered in silver, elegant and holy. It's like a wonderland of ice and snow.

The city gate is imprinted with two big words - Ice City.

Seeing this city, Lin Tianxiao's eyes showed a complicated expression.

Lin Tianxiao asked himself, if it weren't for this special situation, he probably would never have come here.

Lin Kecheng saw Lin Tianxiao's expression, and sighed helplessly in his heart. As a son of man, Lin Kecheng knows better than anyone how hard this trip was to his father.

Even Lin Kecheng doubted in his heart whether it was right or wrong for him to meet the woman he loved all his life.

"Father, go in. ”

A soft call brought Lin Tianxiao back to his senses. At this point, he had no room to retreat.

"Let's go. ”

When the two of them drove to the city gate, a middle-aged man wearing a black dress with a snowflake embroidered on it stepped forward and asked, "Who are you and what are you doing in Ice City?"

The two of them didn't feel the slightest strangeness about this sudden interrogation, and ordinary people might think that this ice city was the Frozen Temple. But Lin Tianxiao and Lin Kecheng knew that this ice city was not an ice temple at all.

This city is not just a peripheral facility used by the Frozen Temple to connect with the world, and the administrator of this city is only an outer disciple of the Frozen Temple.

"Old man Tianxiao of the Heavenly Star Empire, take the old man to see Ouyang Yiping. Lin Tianxiao said unceremoniously.

Hearing Lin Tianxiao's unceremonious words, the middle-aged man was obviously stunned.

I have been on duty for some years, and the people I have interrogated are eight hundred, if not thousand. But the first time I met someone with such a strong attitude, he also specified that he wanted to see the Great Elder.

Damn, who do you think you are, a mere Holy Emperor Dzogchen, still looking haggard, and a person who is about to lose his breath, dares to shout to see the Great Elder.
