Chapter 146: Into the Echo Workshop
Grunt!
Lin Yu finished eating the last sugar gourd, threw the bamboo skewer in his hand, and then wiped the sugar stains from the corners of his mouth with his white sleeves.
Compared with those passers-by who passed in a hurry, lest they get into trouble, Lin Yu was indeed much more leisurely.
In front of the Echo Workshop, even if there is no music on weekdays, there are always a few swingers shouting to see the beauties in the workshop, but now they are replaced by guards all dressed in white cloth armor.
Lin Yu knew that this was the powerhouse in the Echo Workshop, and he had seen someone wearing the same cloth armor when he was in the Northern Regions.
The guards in white cloth and armor all looked grim, looking like no one should approach, and the pedestrians on the side of the road did not dare to look at it a few more times, and lowered their heads, and only a few brave people would sneak a few glances.
"Yang Shishi's assassination said that it had been suppressed, but how could the battle in the Echo Workshop have the feeling that there are no silver three hundred taels here?" Lin Yu felt a little funny, and the huge formation was probably telling everyone that something big had happened in their Echo Workshop.
This is the first time Lin Yu has seen that the Echo Workshop is being guarded so strictly, and it is not uncommon for the Echo Workshop to be set up in Jiucheng Mountain, but with Yang Shishi's status in the Echo Workshop, it should not be in this mountain city. You must know that the Echo Workshop is almost all over the four continents, and those major cities are the places where everyone like Yang Shishi haunts.
And someone dares to assassinate Yang Shishi here, which is an even more unusual thing. A person like Yang Shishi who became famous at a young age and has made great achievements in the piano art. Although Lin Yu is also the kind of person who became famous at a young age in the Northern Regions, from a certain point of view, Yang Shishi's talent and reputation are still above Lin Yu.
"Echo Room." Lin Yu silently recited these three words. He knew that the forces behind the Echo Workshop were comparable to the existence of the Hanging Mirror Palace, and he had always stayed away. Except for Yang Shishi's several times when he made it difficult for him to dance the sword, Lin Yu never came into contact with the people of the Echo Workshop, and he always felt that he had to be cautious when contacting this kind of force all over the Four Continents.
Lin Yu and Yang Shishi are not acquaintances, but they are also friends who have met a few times. He walked towards the door of the Echo Room.
The security of the echo workshop was very strict, and when he saw someone coming, a guard stepped forward and stretched out his hand to stop Lin Yu, and an invisible momentum descended on Lin Yu's body.
The pinnacle of the Gathering Star Realm?
Lin Yu's shoulders felt slightly heavy, and in an instant, he felt the other party's cultivation.
"Recently, the Echo Workshop will not accept it."
The majestic voice came, more like a commanding tone.
Lin Yu smiled bitterly, it was the first time he had seen the echo workshop so domineering, it was a place of singing and dancing, but there was an atmosphere of idlers not to disturb.
The cultivation of the white-cloth-armored guards is also really high, and only one of the guards has the cultivation of the peak of the Gathering Star Realm, which is enough to see the strength of the Echo Workshop.
"I want to meet Yang Shishi." Lin Yu said bluntly.
As soon as Lin Yu's words fell, the other party's eyes instantly became much more vigilant, and at the same time, the rest of the guards clenched the weapons in their hands one after another.
In extraordinary times, their reactions were much more intense.
"Who are you?" The other party asked.
"Lin Yu, your good friend of the Yang family."
Lin Yu didn't retreat, and he didn't have to see Yang Shishi. Seeing that the other party didn't say a word, I didn't know what it meant. But after all, it wasn't meant to let him into the Echo Workshop.
"If it's inconvenient, I'll go." Lin Yu said again.
Just as Lin Yu turned to leave, he was stopped, and five or six guards surrounded him, the spiritual power in his body was ready to go, and the weapon in his hand could be unsheathed at any time, pointing at Lin Yu.
The corners of Lin Yu's mouth furled, and he looked at the guard just now, obviously he was the leader of this group of guards.
"What do you want to do?" Lin Yu was a little angry, didn't you let this go?
"Why did Your Excellency come to see Yang Family?"
"I heard that she was seriously injured, so I came to see her." Lin Yu completely copied what Lin Xiaoxiao said to him.
Hearing this, the long knife in his hand came out of the sheath and pointed at the tip of Lin Yu's nose.
Obviously, the news has been blocked, why can this kid know, Yang Anxin doesn't understand, as Yang Shishi's bodyguard, it is a great dereliction of duty to let the assassin infiltrate, and now let the news leak, Yang Anxin feels that he is not at ease these days.
"Really?" When Lin Yu saw the other party's reaction, he immediately understood everything.
Seeing this, Yang Anxin suddenly ignited a silver flame with the short knife in his hand, more like a light burning above. It is also a knife, but Yang Anxin's knife is straight, the blade is only on one side, and the blade is shiny, less than three feet, which is shorter than ordinary knives.
The rest of the people also followed Yang Anxin's movements, and their divine thoughts fell on Lin Yu's body one after another.
Lin Yu, who felt the malice, frowned slightly, he didn't want these guards to be so arrogant, and he had already begun to suspect that he was the assassin who carried out the assassination for no reason.
"What a bunch of pig brains." Lin Yu muttered, his voice very soft but also very clear.
"What did you say?"
"Of course it's a curse, can you still praise you?" Lin Yu said angrily.
Lin Yu looked around, only to see that the eyes of several of them became even colder, but now there was no Yang Anxin's order and he didn't make a random move.
Yang Anxin was annoyed, a young man who didn't know the height of the sky looked like he was no more than eighteen or nineteen years old, his mouth was extremely powerful, and his temperament was also straightforward and scary. And he didn't know that this might also be a kind of indifference, this teenager didn't care what his people could do to him.
"Yang Shishi is seriously injured, if I am an assassin, can I still send it to the door to find death? Let's just say you're a bunch of pig brains. Lin Yu said helplessly. I thought to myself, some things can only be said thoroughly, and not everyone is as smart as themselves.
"You should have been with Yang Shishi for a long time, but you don't see what you have learned."
Yang Anxin also thought of Lin Yu's considerations, which was also the reason why Yang Anxin didn't do it for a long time, but he felt that Lin Yu had nothing to do with this assassination.
After a moment of confrontation, Lin Yu saw that his words could not move Yang Anxin, so he shouted towards the door of the Echo Workshop: "Take me to see your young lady." ”
There was a person standing at the door of the Echo Workshop, wearing a long white skirt and dressed like a maid.
Lin Yu knew this person, when he was dancing the sword in the Echo Workshop, it was really this maid who followed Yang Shishi and served left and right.
The maid didn't agree immediately, as if she didn't know Lin Yu, but when Yang Anxin was about to make a move, she stopped her.
"Mademoiselle asked me to bring him in." The maid said.
In the puzzled eyes of Yang Anxin and many guards, Lin Yu's fingertips gently pushed away the sharp short knife and passed over Yang Anxin lightly.
"Don't point your knife at someone casually, if you can't kill the other party, you will be the one who will be disgraced." Lin Yu said, it was an exhortation, but to everyone, it was more like a lesson from the elders to the juniors.
Lin Yu didn't want to stir up trouble, but the burning blade just now was only three inches away from his throat, which made Lin Yu very unhappy. No one likes to be threatened like this!
Ignoring the angry crowd behind him, Lin Yu followed closely behind the maid, and said even more scoundrelly: "If you have the ability, you can come." He knew that in this position, if someone made a move on him, he would definitely hurt Yang Shishi's maid on the side.
Shameless!
Bummer!
Stinky and shameless!
There was no overwhelming abuse, but Lin Yu could also feel the meaning in their eyes.
.....
After walking for a while, Lin Yu followed the maid into a peach forest, which was the backyard of the echo workshop, not close to the place where the piano was being stroked. Although in the world, there is more silence far from the hustle and bustle.
The world is full of fragrant flowers in April, and the peach blossoms in the mountain temple are in full bloom.
This is also the case in this mountain city, the world is already in April, but the Jiucheng Mountain is higher, and there are some spring cold and steep meanings, and it is rare to see new branches budding, let alone blooming peach blossoms. Therefore, this peach forest cannot be blinded by the human eye, and you can see the scenery behind the peach forest through the branches.
"It's such a secluded place." Lin Yu said.
"You're such a scoundrel."
Lin Yu was stunned for a moment, and didn't understand why this incomprehensible remark came from the mouth of this maid, the two of them had only met twice, which really gave people the impression of a scoundrel.
"Xia Qingran said this to me, I admit it, why are you a little girl?" Lin Yu thought to himself.
"I really don't know why Miss values you so much, put on a stinky shelf, and let my young lady invite me again and again, do you want to use my young lady's reputation to elevate yourself? I've seen a lot of disciples like you, pretending to be high, but in the end, I didn't come to the sound shop in person to ask to see my young lady? ”
"Hmph, the door of the Echo Workshop is not so easy to enter, and my young lady is not a superficial woman in the mortal world, her eyes are high, don't think that pretending to be like getting the favor of my young lady."
The maid chattered, and Lin Yu listened to it, but did not refute it, and it was completely like she was beating and scolding.
Beyond the peach grove, a pool of water appeared, and there was a small island in the lake, and on the island there was a pavilion, and light yarn hung on all sides. It's hard to imagine that there is such a clean place in the back of this echo workshop, far away from the mortal world.
The maid stopped, and the nagging in her mouth stopped with her footsteps.
"Hey, Miss is in the pavilion, don't you offend Miss?" The maid said a little arrogantly, and her eyes looked at Lin Yu with even more vigilance and distrust.
Without making any response, Lin Yu flew up, tapped the lake water with his toes, and saw that he landed on the island in the lake in one step.
There was a woman in the pavilion, with a piano in front of her, and tea burning on her side, and two white porcelain cups on a small square table, which seemed to have been prepared.
Yang Shishi stroked the piano with both hands, and her slender fingers plucked gently, but she was stopped by Lin Yu.
"Wait, I'm not listening to your music today."
Along the way, Lin Yu could guess that Yang Shishi was safe and sound when he saw the maid's demeanor, otherwise how could this maid be so relaxed?
Yang Shishi was not angry, as if she was used to Lin Yu's style, so she simply put away the guqin and made a cup of tea for Lin Yu, who was sitting in front of her.
"Good tea." Lin Yu took a sip and said.
Yang Shishi hadn't seen Lin Yu for a long time, and asked, "My Xiaoxi'er didn't scold you, but let you still be so calm." ”
Xiao Xi'er was referring to Yang Shishi's maid, seeing that Lin Yu was puzzled, Yang Shishi continued: "Xi'er has followed me for many years, and she has repeatedly said in my ear that you are a shameless scoundrel, which makes my ears calloused. I think she won't miss the chance to teach you a lesson. ”
Lin Yu nodded in agreement.
"Her words are indeed excessive, but when I think about it, I think there is some truth in it." Lin Yu said calmly.
