Back in the room, Zhao Lin stared at the pattern for a long time.

A bent moon, three plum blossoms, the pattern seems simple, but quite elegant, there is a unique artistic conception and beauty.

Zhao Lin originally suspected that the robbery might not have been done by bandits, but now it was almost certain that the murderer was someone else.

It is rare for bandits to have a spirit boat, not to mention that there is a special emblem.

The Li family in Sanshan County is the most suspicious, but Zhao Lin, the family emblem of the Li family, has seen it, the shape of three mountains on the left, and a Li character on the right, which is very different from the pattern of the crescent moon plum blossom.

"Whoever it is, I'm going to get you out!"

The next day, Zhao Lin came to the administrative office and found several stewards and asked them if they had seen an emblem or family badge similar to the crescent moon plum blossom.

As a result, no one knew it, and even the owner Wei Zongchuan said that he hadn't seen it.

"Strange, this pattern is definitely not randomly engraved on the ship for the sake of beauty, it must be the emblem of some family or organization, but why does no one know about it?"

Zhao Lin couldn't help but feel a little worried, the administrative department dealt with various shops, if they didn't even know them, it would be difficult to figure out the origin of the pattern.

"Shopkeeper Zhao is idle again?"

A voice came from behind him, and Zhao Lin looked back, Liu Chaoyuan walked over with a smile, holding a few billboards in his hand.

"Shopkeeper Liu!"

Zhao Lin's heart moved, Linglong Pavilion has shops in all major markets, and Liu Chaoyuan is a foundation building monk, maybe he has seen this pattern.

After a few words of greeting, he took out a piece of paper and asked, "Have you seen this pattern in seniors?" ”

Liu Chaoyuan took it and looked at it, and said in an uncertain tone: "It seems to be a family seal." ”

Then he shook his head, "The old man has traveled from south to north and has dealt with many families, and this is the first time I have seen this pattern." ”

He returned the note to Zhao Lin and asked, "Where did you see it?" ”

Zhao Lin casually made up a reason: "A few days ago, someone came to the store with a magic weapon for identification, and the younger generation accidentally saw it, and felt curious, so he drew one according to it, wanting to see it for a long time." ”

Liu Chaoyuan let out an "oh", pondered for a moment, and said: "Although the old man can't understand it, there is a big family in our Fang City who has a lot of research on the emblem family seal. ”

"You should have heard of this person, Chen Yiliang of Zhen'an Hall, the old man happens to be familiar with him, why don't we go and ask for advice together."

Zhao Lin naturally agreed, so the two went to Zhen'an Hall together.

Zhen'an Hall is a medical hall that specializes in medicine, and has a branch in almost every city, and even opened to a foreign sect.

The Tao of Medicine is one of the hundred arts of cultivation, which can be ranked in the top ten according to its importance, covering a very wide range, in addition to treating internal and external injuries, it also includes health preservation and asking questions.

When a monk's cultivation encounters a bottleneck, how to make a further breakthrough, how to decline the cultivation of an old monk, and how to maintain the realm all belong to the scope of the medical Tao.

Zhen'an Hall was on Yunshui Street, not far from the Executive Office, and Zhao Lin and Liu Chaoyuan walked to the gate, just in time to meet Gu An and Tang Zhengquan coming out of it.

"Shopkeeper Zhao." The two saluted.

"Brother Tang, how is your condition?" Zhao Lin asked with concern.

"The doctor prescribed a few pills, and said that if I went back and rested for half a month, I would be fine."

"Okay, you guys go back first."

Zhao Lin said a few words, and walked into Zhen'an Hall with Liu Chaoyuan.

Unlike other shops, there are a lot of customers in the medical hall, but it is quite quiet.

The hall was spacious and transparent, with benches on either side of it and a dozen monks seated.

There was a table in the center, and behind it sat two young monks, wearing square scarves on their heads and moon-white robes, dressed as physicians, who looked like apprentices of the medical hall.

There is a row of stone rooms in the room, and there are characters such as A, B, C, D, etc. hanging in front of the door.

Zhao Lin and Liu Chaoyuan walked into the lobby, and the two apprentices saw a foundation building monk, and hurriedly got up and saluted: "May I ask the two of you to heal or ask?" ”

Liu Chaoyuan said with a grin: "Don't heal or ask, the old man knows your pavilion owner Chen Yiliang, and he has something to do." ”

The apprentice on the left said: "The owner of the hall is seeing the guests, please wait a while, I will go in and report it." ”

"Okay, don't keep the old man waiting."

Liu Chaoyuan pulled Zhao Lin to sit down on the bench, and waited on Erlang's legs.

After a while, the apprentice walked back, "My hall master invited the two of you to come over, and they are in the A-shaped room." ”

Zhao Lin and Liu Chaoyuan walked to the door of the room, pushed the door in, and saw an old man with white hair and a clear face sitting in the stone room.

As soon as the two of them entered the door, the old man's sharp gaze shot straight over, swept past Liu Chaoyuan, and fixed on Zhao Lin.

Zhao Lin only felt a gossamer-like divine sense scanning his body, but he didn't feel alarmed, the Fang City forbade attack spells, and the old man's spells were somewhat similar to the Zhaoyu Gong of the Martial Dao.

Liu Chaoyuan smiled slightly, didn't speak, and simply stepped aside.

The old man's divine sense swept through Zhao Lin's meridians and spiritual apertures, and finally stopped at the "Zhengshu Acupoint", and said: "Xiaoyou has enough qi and blood, the meridians are stable, and the most rare thing is that there is no secret injury, and the foundation is solid!" ”

"If the old man is not mistaken, you have cultivated to the peak of the sixth layer of qi refining, as long as you break through the Zhengshu acupoint, you can enter the seventh layer of qi refining."

Zhao Lin was slightly surprised, it was not easy for the old man to be able to see his cultivation, and even the spiritual knowledge of cultivation could be accurately said.

There are twelve spiritual aperture on each layer of the Qi Refining Realm, and the monk can choose any one, and there are no fixed requirements.

"Pavilion Master Chen's eyes are like torches, and he admires them in his later years!"

Zhao Lin gave a deep salute, and he knew without asking that this person was Chen Yiliang, the owner of the Medical Daoist Pavilion.

Chen Yiliang laughed, turned his face and asked Liu Chaoyuan: "Brother Liu is here today, what advice do you have?" ”

"Don't dare to advise."

Liu Chaoyuan glanced at Zhao Lin, "This little friend has seen a badge and can't recognize it, I know that Brother Chen is well-informed and has a lot of research in this way, so I ask you to give him a palm." ”

When Chen Yiliang heard this, his face showed an interested look, and he waved his hand to signal the two of them to sit down, "Oh, then I want to take a look." ”

Zhao Lin took out the paper, opened it and put it on the table, and respectfully pushed it in front of Chen Yiliang.

"The younger generation saw this pattern by chance, but unfortunately his eyesight was not good, and he couldn't see the calendar, so I asked Chen's seniors to give me more advice!"

Chen Yiliang picked up the paper, stared at the pattern for a long time, and frowned, "Did you draw something less in this pattern?" ”

Of course, Zhao Lin couldn't be sure, Tang Zheng didn't look carefully, so he replied: "The juniors have a glimpse, there may be omissions, please correct the seniors." ”

Chen Yiliang took out a brush from the pen holder, tapped it in front of the crescent moon, and asked with a smile: "Think about it again, isn't that so?" ”

Zhao Lin pretended to think about it for a while, nodded and said, "Yes, there is this." ”

Chen Yiliang leaned back in the chair and said confidently: "That's right!" This is a clan chapter, from the Earth Dark Sect! ”

Zhao Lin's heart was shocked, and he suddenly felt enlightened, and suddenly understood why this pattern seemed familiar.

He killed fourteen monks of the Earth Dark Sect, one of them had this pattern on his robe, after two years, his memory was very vague, and after Chen Yiliang reminded him, he finally remembered it.

These dogs, instead of cleaning them up, actually hit themselves on the head.

Zhao Lin forcibly suppressed his ups and downs, and said quietly: "Please teach Senior Chen!" ”

Chen Yiliang held his beard in his hand and said slowly: "Zhen'an Hall has a branch in Jiangdu, the Dark Sect, and the old man has been sitting there for five years, so he has a certain understanding of the local immortal cultivation family. ”

Pointing to the top of the pattern, he asked, "What do you think this place looks like?" ”

Zhao Lin thought for a moment and said: "It was originally like a crescent moon, but there is one more point, much like the yin and yang fish in the gossip, but there is only one." ”

Chen Yiliang stroked his palm and said: "Yes, it's a yin and yang fish!" The Earth Dark Sect sent an envoy to our sect to learn the Tao, and also learned this yin and yang fish, and named it Gouyue. ”

"Gouyue is quite popular in the Earth Dark Sect, and many family seals have this Gouyue pattern. So as long as you see this Gouyue, most of them are from the Earth Dark Sect. ”

Liu Chaoyuan was puzzled and interjected: "The yin and yang fish are a pair, representing one yin and one yang, which is the way of heaven. Why is there only half of the moon? ”

Chen Yiliang smiled contemptuously, "Brother Liu, I don't understand, the stolen things must be changed, so that they can be said to be their own things, and the Earth Dark Sect doesn't do too much of this kind of thing." ”

Liu Chaoyuan asked again: "What do the three plum blossoms below mean?" ”

Chen Yiliang said: "The Earth Dark Sect is still ancient, and he likes pine, bamboo, and plum orchids, or powerful beasts. ”

"Families with a long history have their own family crests, and most of the patterns are taken from this place as a symbol of status."

"As far as I know, the Immortal Cultivator family in the western part of the Earth Dark Sect likes to use plum blossoms as their family coat of arms, but I don't know which family it is."

Zhao Lin put away the paper and gave a solemn salute, "The master of the Chen Pavilion is really worthy of his name, well-read, and his words make the younger generations see the sun, and they are really taught!" ”

As he spoke, he took out a silver ticket of five hundred spirit coins from his bosom and put it on the table: "Delay the hall master's consultation, and don't hesitate to smile." ”

According to the rules of the Fang market, any treasure is subject to a consultation fee, and Zhao Lin just heard about Chen Yiliang's consultation fee outside, so he gave twice the price.

Chen Yiliang nodded, he didn't shirk, he had to charge for seeing people, and the same was true for helping people.

Liu Chaoyuan smiled: "It seems that I have found the right person." ”

The matter had been asked clearly, so Zhao Lin didn't delay any longer and got up to say goodbye.

Chen Yiliang sent the two of them to the door, and suddenly said: "Xiaoyou's meridians are strong and strong, which is a good thing, but it is several times more difficult to cultivate than ordinary people. ”

"The first spiritual aperture of the seventh layer is one of the three most difficult to break through, with your qualifications, don't even think about it without a year or two of effort."

Zhao Lin was stunned, and said in his heart, why did he still see the doctor? And this rhetoric sounds a lot like a charlatan.

I only heard Chen Yiliang continue: "If you want to cultivate faster, the old man can prescribe a pill for you, and after taking it, it will save at least half a year." ”

Zhao Lin smiled indifferently, neither humble nor arrogant: "Thank you seniors for mentioning it, but the juniors want to try it themselves, and if necessary, they will definitely come to ask for advice." ”

Chen Yiliang watched the two leave, pinched his beard and muttered to himself: "It's a little interesting, the old man's trick has always been invincible, but I didn't expect to miss." ”

Walking out of the medical hall, Zhao Lin took out a silver ticket, "Old Liu, please accept it." ”

Liu Chaoyuan waved his hand and said: "The old man is just a middleman, he didn't help much, forget it." ”

Although he said that he would forget it, his eyes were staring directly at the silver ticket.

Zhao Lin smiled secretly in his heart and said seriously: "Without you as an intermediary, things can't be asked, please be sure to accept it." ”

is also helping, grateful to people I don't know, but I take acquaintances for granted, it is a taboo in the world, not to mention that Liu Chaoyuan is a senior, so I can't let people go this trip in vain.

"Well, let's not take this as an example."

Liu Chao Yuanle and harmoniously took the silver ticket.

Back in Jindan Hall, Zhao Lin went straight back to the backyard, brewed himself a pot of spiritual tea, and thought about how to solve the current problem.

It was already clear that this was a revenge from the Earth Dark Sect.

He has been staying in Fang City, and the Earth Dark Sect can't find a chance to start, so he disguises himself as a bandit and robs the goods.

What's next?

The goods will definitely not be recovered, and there will be no results if they are reported to the sect.

Because there is no evidence at hand, Tang Zhengquan's confession alone is not enough to prove that it was done by the Earth Dark Sect.

Speaking of which, he killed fourteen elite monks of the Earth Dark Sect, this revenge is nothing, the question is that he was targeted by these people, what will he do in the future?

After thinking about it, when he had no clue, Gu Dezhao walked into the backyard and said very carefully: "Shopkeeper Zhao, the spirit tea and pills will be out of stock soon." ”

Zhao Lin put down the teacup and asked, "How long can it last?" ”

Gu Dezhao said: "I checked the warehouse just now, and it will last for three days at most." ”

Zhao Lin thought for a while and said, "Then buy another batch of goods, it's still the list from last time, and go to Zhouyi to ask the escort team to escort it." ”

Fang City has an escort team that specializes in transporting goods, similar to the dart game in the mortal world.

The escort team's Lingzhou has outstanding offensive and defensive capabilities, and the monks are proficient in the art of killing, and they can even ask the Zhuji monks to sit in charge.

Correspondingly, the cost is quite expensive, and generally only large stores can afford it, or multiple shops along the way can hire an escort team.

The store's spirit boat has been damaged, and this is the only way to transport goods.

Gu Dezhao said distressedly: "Please escort the team is too expensive, why don't we find another shop to borrow one, and the old man will go back to transport the goods in person, so that he won't encounter bandits again, right?" ”

"No way!"

Zhao Lin flatly refused, "I can't take any more risks, I'd rather spend more money and transport the goods safely." ”

Others don't know the reason for the matter, but they can be clear, since the Earth Dark Sect dares to do it for the first time, they are not afraid to do it for the second time.

If he loses another cargo boat, it will be completely wasted in two years, and his impression in Lu Yuanxiu's heart will plummet.

Gu Dezhao didn't expect Zhao Lin to react so much, so he had to nod his head, hesitated, and asked, "Do you want to inform Zhou Zhangyuan about this?" ”

Zhao Lin was silent for a while, and said, "I'll let me know." ”

After Gu Dezhao finished speaking, he still stood where he was, and Zhao Lin asked, "Ancient, is there anything else?" ”

Gu Dezhao said: "The funds in the store are a little tight, since the cargo boat is broken, it is better to sell it at a discount, and some can get back some of the capital." ”

Zhao Lin felt a headache and waved his hand: "Just according to the ancient meaning." (End of chapter)
