After Lin Manliu returned to the side courtyard, he met with everyone who came to Yijian Villa this time.

The short-shirted young man's hairstyle Lang Fengyan hadn't left yet, so he hugged the black-robed woman first.

He opened his mouth and said: "If the seniors are not in a hurry, you can rest for a few days in Yijian Villa, and food and accommodation will be arranged." ”

Lin Manliu originally thought that this senior would either respond or leave on his own later.

The reply that the young man never expected came from the mouth of the black-robed woman.

"Settle the expenses along the way first, and I'll return them to Sister Kesi in the future, and I'll discuss other things later!"

The short-shirted boy's face froze, but he could only nod sharply.

Co-authored this senior is waiting here, just afraid that he will take credit?

Lang Fengyan's figure moved back, giving way to the way ahead, and Lin Manliu raised his hand and clenched his fist and continued to move forward.

The people who went to Yijian Villa this time, it can be said that except for Shen Duchao, everyone else has something to ask.

The young man in the short shirt looked ahead, and the next thing waiting for him was naturally the two masters of Xingyi and Xingji.

Lin Manliu also saluted the two of them, and without waiting for Xingyi to ask, the young man in the short shirt told all the news he heard in the main hall to the little monk in front of him.

And in the process of retelling, he repeatedly used the word "guess" to emphasize the accuracy of the message.

After Xingyi listened, he exchanged glances with Xingji beside him, and then looked at the short-shirted boy again.

I saw the little monk clasp his hands together and speak loudly: "Since those people from the Jianghu sect have already set off to return to various places, they must be able to quell the bandits from all over the world soon..."

Lin Manliu said: "Master Xingyi can also go to the main hall again with me if he has time later, these things still have to be explained by the second owner of our mountain villa!" ”

If it weren't for business, I wouldn't have called you the second owner in front of people!

Xingyi shook his head: "The news that Lord Lin Shi said, the little monk can trust it, and it is okay!" ”

The young man in the short shirt replied: "Thank you Master Xingyi, but if I have time later, I will still introduce you to the two of you." ”

Xingyi hummed, and walked to the side of the courtyard with Xingji.

Lin Manliu looked behind him again, and it was Shen Duchao, Fu You, and Jiang Yanlin.

After Jiang Yanlin entered the side courtyard, the whole person seemed a little restrained, and at this time, seeing that the short-shirted young man had something important to discuss, he didn't come forward directly.

Lin Manliu also informed the three of them that they could stay in the village to rest in the future.

He also explained what Fu You wanted, and would let her meet the old liar in the near future.

The short-shirted boy suddenly thought that if it was related to the Eight Phases, he could actually see Mu Tianlian and Yue Qingqiu again?

Lin Manliu immediately informed Fu You of his thoughts, but was politely rejected by the other party.

"There's no need to introduce other people, thank you Lin Shaoxia..."

Lin Manliu responded: "Then I will inform you when I have time." ”

In the end, only Shen Duchao and Jiang Yanlin were left, and the former said casually that he was here to play, so he didn't need to care about her.

In this way, the young man in the short shirt looked at Jiang Yanlin and beckoned to him.

Lin Manliu said: "Yan Lin, you come with me!" ”

Jiang Yanlin shouted Brother Liu, and quickly followed behind the short-shirted boy.

After Lin Manliu said goodbye to the others, he took Jiang Yanlin out of the side courtyard and began to walk towards a corridor.

The two walked a long way, passing through pavilions and stone bridges, and finally reached a small pavilion surrounded by pools.

The short-shirted boy took the lead in taking a seat, and Jiang Yanlin followed and sat beside him.

Lin Manliu didn't say anything in time, just looked at the swimming fish in the pool.

Jiang Yanlin said loudly: "Brother Liu, but Master Ye Zhuang has a way?" ”

Lin Manliu snorted and turned his head to look at him.

"If Yanlin wants to avoid this disaster, are you willing to go overseas and come back when things stop?"

Jiang Yanlin was silent for a moment, and then responded: "Where is Brother Liu... I'm right there! ”

Hearing the same reply as before, Lin Manliu first sighed this time, and then looked at Jiang Yanlin with a smile.

"Good!"

Regarding Lin Manliu's change in demeanor that was different from the past, Jiang Yanlin was naturally aware of it.

He asked in a low voice, "Brother Liu, but there is a difficulty..."

Lin Manliu waved his hand to signal that it was okay, and then the whole person looked at the swimming fish in the pond again.

He is like this, Jiang Yanlin is like this, and the old liar and Yijian Villa are probably the same...

No matter who it is, it is a swimming fish in this world, seemingly happy and chic, but it is still limited by the water of a pond.

Lin Manliu himself may not have noticed that since he traveled alone this time, his mood has quietly changed.

There are good... There are also bad...

From not asking for help at the beginning, it turned into receiving help from others when returning to the villa.

From the first time he traveled to the rivers and lakes, he was decisive in killing the enemy, and he turned into hesitation and "calmness" when he watched those Yanyang soldiers flee.

From enjoying the leisurely freedom of seeking mountains and rivers, it has turned into the helplessness of self-imprisonment in the shallow pool at this moment.

The short-shirted young man pondered for a long time, and Jiang Yanlin beside him whispered a few words, but he couldn't wake him up.

In the end, it was Lin Manliu who raised his hand and patted his cheeks several times before he sobered himself up.

He looked at Jiang Yanlin and said, "Let's go, I'll take you to meet the old liar, and plan for us to go to sea in the future!" ”

Jiang Yanlin answered softly, and then followed Lin Manliu in the direction of the main hall.

......

But when Lin Manliu and the others just walked into the courtyard of the main hall, they found that there was a handsome scholar at the main entrance of the main hall at this moment?

And Lin Manliu and Jiang Yanlin both know this person, and Jiang Xu, a side of the Jiang family in Yuezhou.

He is the eldest prince in the mouth of the Nine Pictures and Qianjingxiao, a disciple of Mr. Mo in the school palace in the past.

Jiang Xu beckoned to the two, and his whole demeanor was extremely relaxed.

He opened his mouth and said, "Cousin and Lin Shaoxia, I haven't seen each other for a long time... By the way, shouldn't you be there at the moment? ”

Jiang Yan asked this question, and his whole body began to tremble for no reason.

Seeing this, the young man in the short shirt immediately stepped forward and stood in front of Jiang Yanlin at the same time.

Lin Manliu shouted: "Prince Jiang suddenly visited today, what is the so-called matter?" Besides, when Yan is a guest of my Yijian Villa, do I still need to report to you? ”

As if listening to the young man's bad words, Jiang Xu hurriedly changed his previous attitude and looked at the two of them with an apologetic face.

He coughed, "Ahem... There is indeed no need to report, please forgive Lin Shaoxia and Yanlin! ”

Lin Manliu had a very bad impression of the person in front of him, because many matters in the past may be related to it.

But at this moment, since this eldest prince can appear in Yijian Villa in a grand manner, he must have been invited by the old liar, or he intended to visit here.

The young man in the short shirt was about to ask again what he had come for, when the voice of the old liar came from the main hall.

"Since the sixth year has arrived, let's enter the palace with Jiang Gongzi!"

After Jiang Xu gave Lin Manliu a gesture of invitation, he himself entered the main hall first.

Lin Manliu patted Jiang Yanlin's shoulder and said softly: "Yanlin, don't panic, just listen to me later, this place is more or less in Yijian Villa!" ”

Jiang Yanlin quickly nodded his head and followed the short-shirted boy into the main hall.

When the two entered, the hall seemed to be chatting.

Jiang Xu's laughter was a little loud: "Look, Master Ye, you're right, right?" Lin Shaoxia and Yan Lin will come here in a while. ”

Ye Dang heard a hum, and then looked at Lin Manliu.

"It turns out that Man Liu still knows Jiang Gongzi, but it's a good fate! However, Mr. Mo has been traveling north for a long time, and today Jiang Gongzi may have to return disappointed. ”

Jiang Xu responded with a smile: "What Jiang asked for today is not to visit Mr. Hui, and the owner of Ye Zhuang also knows, right?" ”

This question made everyone present fall silent.

Only Ye Dang laughed when he heard it, and after he drank all the tea in the cup, he turned the whole teacup upside down on the table.

"Ye is a rough man, Jiang Gongzi's plan is very little known!"

Regarding Ye Dangting's attitude, Jiang Xu's face still did not change.

He continued: "Jiang came here today, one is to give gifts, and the other is to relieve worries! ”

Without waiting for Lin Manliu and the others to respond, the eldest prince had already raised his hands and clapped several times.

Bang Bang - Bang -

Suddenly, on the roof of the main hall of Yijian Villa, two or three black shadows suddenly descended, and two of them were detaining a man.

At the same time as several black shadows appeared, a large number of Yijian Villa disciples soon emerged outside the entire main hall.

In front of everyone, these disciples who were waiting for the battle were all ordered to lurk in various parts of the main hall when the eldest prince was worshipping the village.

Jiang Xu laughed and said: "What a big battle!" ”

Ye Dang responded: "But disappointed Jiang Gongzi?" ”

"No, no, no, I'm satisfied... Then please take a look at this first gift! ”

Jiang Xu raised his hand and waved, and the black scarf on the man's face was torn off, and everyone present was a little puzzled by Jiang Xu's move.

The moment Lin Manliu saw the man's face, he looked at Jiang Xu not far away, and a cold light appeared in the young man's eyes!

The person who was captured by those two black shadows was none other than Deputy Lieutenant Qin, who was originally stationed at the Sword Gate Pass.

Jiang Xu said loudly: "This person is called Qin Mo, Lin Shaoxia should know him, right?" ”

As he spoke, he looked at the young man in the short shirt, and happened to bump into Lin Manliu's gaze.

Jiang Xu pretended to be frightened, and while holding his hands in front of his face, he took two steps back.

"Lin Shaoxia, don't be impatient... I said that I came to give gifts and relieve worries today! ”

Qin Mo in the distance also shouted: "Six brothers, you can listen to him finish speaking!" ”

Only then did the short-shirted young man retract his gaze and stood back to Ye Dangting's side, waiting for the next step from the eldest prince.

Jiang Xu said loudly: "The original deputy lieutenant of the Sword Gate has died in a bandit rebellion outside Shannan, and now Qin Mo is just an idle Jianghu person!" ”

As he spoke, he took out a military wooden card in his arms, raised his hand and threw it to Ye Dang.

Lin Manliu looked fixedly, the style of the wooden card was the same as Xue Tang's wooden card before, and it couldn't be faked.

Jiang Xu spoke up again: "Master Ye Zhuang, do you understand? It's okay to give this gift! ”

In the heart of this eldest prince, he was thinking about how to accept the affection of Yijian Villa later, but Ye Dang's answer was beyond his expectations.

"Tell him that! I thought that Mr. Mo's disciples were all smart... Disappointing! ”

Ye Dangting raised his hand and slapped the back of Lin Manliu's head, who was in pain.

The short-shirted young man had to look at Qin Mo outside the door and explained.

"We have already imagined the fake death of Master Xue Sanzhuang, and we don't need to worry about Jiang Gongzi, but we still need to thank Jiang Gongzi, which is enough to prove that Brother Xue has not had time to interfere!"

After learning that Xue Tang might fake his death, Lin Manliu guessed whether it would be these three people.

After all, the Jiu Zhao who told him the news, even if it was to deceive him, specially prepared a secret letter and a blood-stained wooden card.

But at this moment, the eldest prince's "gift-giving" was re-handled by Deputy Lieutenant Qin to re-operate the matter of Brother Xue's fake death to tell them that this method is feasible.

Then Brother Xue's fake death has nothing to do with the three of them.

In Lin Manliu's opinion, a person like Jiang Xu would definitely not make his true intentions public.

Jiang Xu's eyes flashed with a moment of incomprehension, but he soon laughed out loud.

"It's Jiang who underestimated Yijian Villa, a sin... Sin..."

Lin Manliu said: "Then please ask Jiang Gongzi to talk about the second thing!" ”
